P-Bruins Drop Road Game At Hartford, 6-4
Providence Bruins Press Release
Hartford, CT – The Providence Bruins fell to the Hartford Wolf Pack Friday night 6-4 in the fourth game of their season long eight-game road trip. The P-Bruins got two goals from Justin Hickman along with goals apiece from Matt Beleskey and Kenny Agostino while Zane McIntyre made his 17th start of the year in net.
Hartford needed only 47 seconds to take a 1-0 lead as Peter Holland flew up the boards on the right side and beat McIntyre for his 11th goal of the year. Providence had an answer for their early tally with two goals in 2:02. The first came off a turnover when Hartford could not control a face-off win. The puck bounced to Hickman who ripped his second goal of the season by Marek Mazanec to tie the game 1-1 at 12:50. Minutes later, Beleskey scored his first goal as a Providence Bruin when he took the puck from the boards to the center point and fired a perfect wrist-shot by everyone. Ben Marshall and Josh Hennessy picked up assists on the play the gave the P-Bruins a 2-1 lead. However, with just 1:59 left in the period Ryan Graves scored his third goal of the season on a shot from the right dot and the teams were knotted 2-2 into the first intermission.
It was Providence's turn to score early in a period, as the team needed just 19 seconds to regain a 3-2 edge in the second period. Colton Hargrove settled a bouncing puck and fed Austin Czarnik who came flying in towards net. Czarnik got the puck Agostino who came in from behind the net, and he fired his eighth goal of the season in from the left hashmark. That would be the only tally for either side in the second period and the P-Bruins led 3-2 after two.
The third was all Hartford as they exploded for four unanswered goals. The first came at 7:06 at the tail end of a power play, as a charging Scott Kosmachuk put home a rebound off Steven Fogarty's shot to tie the score 3-3. Eric Selleck scored his first goal of the year unassisted less than two minutes later to help the Wolf Pack regain the lead 4-3. A shorthanded goal gave them some breathing room, as at 14:06 a turnover led to a 2-on-1 break for Dawson Leedahl and Gabriel Fontaine. Fontaine netted his sixth goal of the season to make things 5-3, and Vinni Lettieri added an empty net goal at 18:49. Hickman scored his second of the game in the final minute but it was too little too late as the P-Bruins fell 6-4.
McIntyre stopped 34 of 39 shots while Mazanec stopped 32 of 36. Providence was 0-3 on the power play and 3-4 on the penalty kill. The P-Bruins are back in action tomorrow night in Springfield when they take on the Thunderbirds at 7:05pm in their final game before the Christmas break.

Kevin Hart Loves Big Smokes!
Kevin Hart has been entertaining us since 2001, but really burst on the scene in 2008 with his "I'm a Grown Little Man" stand-up comedy special. From that point on, Kevin Hart has become a household name. Today, Hart, a stand-up comedian, actor, and producer rank among the highest-grossing entertainers in Hollywood. This new member of Hollywood royalty counts on big smokes as one of his favorite indulgences.
Kevin Hart Hustles Every Day
Cigars were not some affectation that he acquired the moment he achieved box office gold. Kevin hart started smoking cigars while on the road building out his stand-up career. He often saw other comedians like Ron White and Steve Harvey smoking on stage or after their set. Steve Harvey has become a huge role model for Hart because of his tireless work ethic. He also passed off his joy of smoking cigars to Hart, who was hooked!
Little Man, Big Smokes
Unlike many celebrities, Kevin Hart isn't shy about his smoking habits. He was photographed on New Year's Eve smoking with famed singer and actor, Ludacris. On his recent honeymoon with his new bride, Eniko Parrish in St. Bart's, the paparazzi's eyes were on his new bride. They also captured Kevin Hart smoking in every photo, every day of the honeymoon. In a recent luxury fashion shoot on a sailboat in Malibu, he flashed one of his other big passions- expensive watches. He sported a rare Audemars Piguet watch that cost in excess of 100k while waving a massive trophy Cuban.
All in the Family Smoking
This 2014 movie "Ride Along" featured Ice Cube, who is a notorious cigar smoker. While Ice Cube's cigar of choice is a Punch Magnum Double Maduro, which looked large in his hands, looked massive when given to Kevin Hart. Ice Cube playfully teased his co-star about not being allowed to smoke anything bigger than himself. They smoked frequently throughout the movie both on and off the set. While they shared cigars with folks on the set, many couldn't handle the strong full-bodied smokes they enjoyed!
Kevin Hart is Serious About his Big Smokes
As one of the most sought-after stand-up comedians both on stage and on the big screen, he has made a career by being the funny guy. However, Kevin Hart takes his cigars seriously. He smokes frequently and does not shy away from lighting up big ringed, full-bodied smoke. In the pictures from New Years' with Ludacris, he is smoking a Cohiba Behike. He is also not afraid to flash prized Cuban trophies like a Partagas Series E Number 2. The bigger, the better!
The Champ Remains Humble
As one of the top-grossing movie stars, it would be easy for all of the success to go to his head. Instead, Kevin Hart stays grounded through the love of his growing family, and by focusing on upcoming projects. Smoking a cigar while enjoying a cocktail allows him to gather his thoughts as he thinks about the future, while also reflecting upon the journey that got him there. A good smoke keeps him grounded and focused.
Although the cigars, the watches, and the clothes all may seem flashy, Kevin Hart remains humble and hard working. He knows how fleeting the success could be and he never takes anything for granted.

This post is a definitive guide on how to delete gmail emails in bulk on android. Bet you've got thousands of messages and to delete them one by one seemed very frustrating.
Yes and that is true.
I've been in your shoe before, as i realise that i've got up to five thousand mails that i need to get rid of.
How do i do it, one by one no way as its not going to work out for me.
Imagine deleting five thousand mails one after the other, that will take me throughout the whole day or a good 48hrs before i'm done with it.
To crown it worst, gmail application for android didn't make a provision on how to delete gmail emails in bulk on android.
So i came up with a very nice idea and a method, it worked hundred percent for me. And the method i used in getting rid of five thousand mails from my gmail account, is the method i'm going to share with you guys.
How to delete gmail emails in bulk on android
First you need to make up your mind as you'll completely loose all the mails, and that the emails is no longer useful for you.
Having made up your mind, then proceed with the method on how to delete gmail emails in bulk on android.
First this can't gmail application for android, you need to use a browser. I prefer to use opera browserfor android.
Let me repeat again, opera browser and not opera mini or opera beta, but the main browser itself.
Open gmail.com and sign in using your gmail account and password. Immediately it signs you in, press the option menu and switch your display from mobile to desktop.
It will display exactly like you're using a computer to view your gmail account.
Now, to delete gmail emails in bulk on android, you need to go to the folder which you want to get rid of it's mails.
For example, you'll be presented with primary, promotional and social. All promotional and socials are usually packed with mails that doesn't make any bit of sense.
They are usually from Facebook, Instagram, twitter, Pinterest and other social media pages plus websites which you used your gmail account to sign up with.
So to do that, select your preferred folder by simply tapping on it. Note that the default folder is the primary and that is where your main mails are stored.
When you tap on your preferred folder, look at the top of your screen and you'll see a small box with a drop down beside it.
Tap on it and it will mark all your messages on first page and is usually which is fifty in number.
Then look closely below the options give to you, you'll see where it is written "All 50 conversations on this page are selected" Select all 3,222 conversations in primary.
Please the number 3222 ie the number of mails i have in my gmail account, yours should be different.
You will have to tap on where it is written select all 3,222 conversations in primary. Having done so, it will make all the whole mails in your primary folder.
After that you will see that it states 3,222 (depending on the number of mails in your primary folder) conversations in Primary are selected. Clear selection
If you want to clear the marked mails in your primary folder, simply tap on clear selection.
However, if you want to go ahead to delete gmail emails in bulk on android phone, then simply tap on the delete icon which is on the top of your screen.
When you tap on the delete icon, all you whole email in the primary folder will be deleted at once.
This also applies to other folders like social and promotional. I make use of this to delete all the mails from my social and promotional folders at once.
With this method you can easily to delete gmail emails in bulk on android phone without stress.
Note that navigation might be a bit difficult for you, but it isn't that much difficult especially if you have a big android screen like 6.2 inches and above.
Up till this moment of writing this post, there's no any other method unless you have to use a computer to do that.
The reason why i said that you should use opera browser is because so far i've tested this up to six mobile browsers and opera browser is the only one that worked for me.
You can as well try it on puffin browser. The likes of google chrome for mobile and firefox didn't actually work for me, but maybe you can give it a try.

As always, you can contact our office to answer any questions or concerns.
Osteoporosis, which means "porous bone," is a condition in which bones become weak and thin due to lack of calcium. People with osteoporosis have an increased risk of bone fractures (breaks).
Osteoporosis is often called the "silent disease" because many people do not realize they have it. However, pain can occur when a bone becomes so weak that it breaks.
Osteoporosis is most commonly seen in women over age 50, but younger people and men can also have it. While the bones of the spine, hip, and wrist are the most common bones to become fractured as a result of osteoporosis, metatarsals and other bones in the feet can be affected. In fact, some people first find out they have osteoporosis because of a fracture in the foot.
Increased pain with walking, accompanied by redness and swelling on the top of the foot, is a sign that you should see a foot and ankle surgeon for x-rays and examination.
Additional information can be found by reading Toe and Metatarsal Fractures.

Listen to The Refresh, Insider's real-time news show
India's massive population and rapid economic growth is one of the biggest stories of the century so far.
But with this huge growth comes all sorts of big challenges relating to bureaucracy, crime, culture, commerce, and social ills.
We regularly hear reports of massive power outages, false death certificates, and farmer suicides.
Other stories are associated with unimaginable riches and extravagance.
Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani built a 400,000 square foot, 27-story building called Antilla that was estimated to cost $1 billion. His family and their staff are the only occupants of his home.
India's wedding market is an estimated $11 billion and wealthy Indians are spending money not just on food and ferrying guests about, but also on "thank you gifts" and invites.
Some 6 million tons of India's grains, worth $1.5 billion, could rot, while 43 percent of children under the age of five are underweight and 3,000 children reportedly die from malnutrition-related illnesses every day.
Farmers with massive debt burdens have been committing suicide since 1995. Over 250,000 farmers have reportedly committed suicide. Many accuse foreign companies like Monsanto of selling farmers overpriced seeds that are forced on them by the government. The low cost of produce along with poor harvests have often caused farmers to take their own lives as they see it as the only way out of their tremendous debt.
Superstitious parents in India are known to have c-sections, or to plan ahead and induce labor at times that are considered auspicious. Some Hindus believe that being born at a certain time will better a child's future.
India has the worst bureaucracy in Asia, according a report by Hong Kong-based Political and Economic Risk Consultancy. A new poll by KPMG showed that 71 percent think fraud is "an inevitable cost of doing business in the country." People even face bureaucracy in getting much needed medical treatment.
One anti-bureaucracy activist was transferred 43 times, from job to job, because people didn't want him around.
Santosh Kumar Singh fought for nine years to prove that he was alive. His brothers declared him dead and stole his land after he married a woman of a lower caste. False death certificates are frequently issued in land grabs.
The Indian military chose to turn the world's hottest chili, "bhut jolokia" or "ghost chili" into a weapon.
A woman named Shaheen Dhada posted a status on Facebook questioning a Mumbai "bandh," or shutdown, after the death of politician Bal Thackeray, known for using various forms of intimidation to achieve political ends. Her friend Renu Srinivasan liked the post. Both were arrested for their actions and the incident sparked a furor about the lack of freedom of speech in India.
Termites ate through 10 million rupees ($222,000) at the Fathepur branch of State Bank of India last year.
India's Delhi metro hired a monkey handler or langurwallah, to chase monkeys off the city's metro trains. Monkey handlers have also been used on the grounds of parliament and in some government buildings to scare off wild monkeys.
Even though it is illegal to discriminate on the basis of caste, creed, religion, or gender, developers and realtors often advertise apartments for rent/sale for certain religious groups or certain castes.
This store is selling Nike-Puma slippers.
Nearly 50 percent of India's population is said not to have a toilet at home and public defecation is a huge problem. BBC columnist Rahul Tandon wrote about a home where people had put up photos of Indian deities to prevent people from urinating on their walls. This was also mentioned in Rohinton Mistry's 1991 novel, "Such A Long Journey."
An Indian non-profit believes that 70,000 child miners illegally work the coal mines in just one part of the country called Jaintia Hills. Parents often send their children to the mines instead of school since they become a source of income.
In July India faced a massive power outage that left 600 million people without power. Some agricultural states were accused of exceeding the power quota assigned them during a weak monsoon season. But India frequently faces power outages many of which are blamed on corruption.
Indian business man Datta Phuge spent $230,888 on a gold shirt. He told the Pune Mirror "I know "I am not the best looking man in the world but surely no woman could fail to be dazzled by this shirt".
Back in 2011, designer Amitabh Chandel said he made a $93,000 shirt of silk, gold and solitaire diamonds for an Indian prince.

The Internet Is Blasting Hugh Jackman For Sharing Solidarity Photo
It's been a rough year so far. And that's putting it lightly.
Not only has the world been devastated by the coronavirus, but now the murder of George Floyd has become the straw that broke the camel's back in terms of folks finally being fed up with police brutality. Of course, Floyd was killed by asphyxia when officer Derek Chauvin held his knee on his neck for well over 8 minutes while arresting him in Minneapolis, despite Floyd telling him multiple times that he couldn't breathe.
The incident has sparked nationwide protests and riots in nearly every major city in America, while many celebrities have taken to social media to make their voices heard as well. But some of them have been a bit misguided in their attempts. Like Hugh Jackman, for instance.
The Aussie actor hopped on Twitter earlier this week to post a photo of a protestor and cop sharing a hug, with the caption "solidarity." Seems innocent enough, right? Well, not quite, as many are calling it "pro-police propaganda" and have begun blasting the X-Men star on social media.

While we imagine Hugh had good intentions behind his post, it's not hard to see why some people have taken it the way they have. Especially in the current political climate. After all, many celebrities have found themselves in similar positions and most of them probably weren't expecting to face such backlash.
It's a tricky time, to be sure, and folks no doubt need to tread carefully on social media. But tell us, what do you think of Hugh Jackman's latest post? And do you feel he deserves to be blasted like he's being right now? As always, sound off in the comments section down below.

2015 was predicted to be the breakthrough year for wearable technology. Wearables were the most common talk topic of technology-, advertising- and fashion-focused conferences. The market for wearable tech, especially that which is focused on fitness, is indeed exploding. But while cute and increasingly ubiquitous -- on the wrists, necks, or clipped to the body of all your friends -- many wearables are still single-purpose, redundant, or just plain useless, raising concerns about privacy and even etiquette. No wonder, there is a high return and product abandonment rate. Yet, the wearable future is coming faster than most futurologists thought ...

Accurate linear and nonlinear models for devices and components are essential for successful RF/microwave computer aided engineering (CAE). The modeling techniques can be categorized in different levels based on the abstraction of the model as well as the application of the models at various design phases. This dissertation deals with behavioral modeling techniques for nonlinear RF components, especially amplifiers.
There is an increasing demand for accurate behavioral models of RF and microwave components, or integrated circuit (IC) blocks used in wireless system designs. Accurate behavioral models help designers evaluate and select the appropriate components at simulation phase, thereby cutting development cost.
However, there isnt a practical (or flexible) solution for accurate and effective behavioral model generation. This dissertation tries to tackle this problem. Power amplifiers and devices are the main components studied in this dissertation.
The primary focus is on the characterization of the loadpull performance of power amplifiers and devices. Major contributions of this dissertation include development of advanced loadpull measurement procedures, large-signal load-aware behavioral model, and a load-aware behavioral model with memory-effect capabilities.
There are two advanced loadpull measurements documented in this dissertation: the AM-PM loadpull measurement and the digital demodulation loadpull measurement. These two measurements may have been used internally by some research groups, however, according to the best knowledge of the author, they havent received much attention in the literature. This is the first published work on these two topics.
It is shown in this work that the AM-PM performance can be strongly dependent on the load conditions. This property provides important information about the nonlinearities of power amplifiers and is used herein to create better behavioral models.
This newly developed digital demodulation loadpull measurement procedure enables system designers to evaluate power amplifiers directly against digital communication system parameters such as error vector magnitude (EVM). Two example measurements are given to demonstrate the measurement system setup and the correlations between traditional nonlinear figure-of-merits and system metrics.
A new behavioral modeling technique / procedure is developed based on loadpull AM-AM and AM-PM measurements. The large-signal scattering function theory is applied in the technique to formulate the model. The created model is able to automatically detect the load impedance and generate corresponding nonlinear properties. Three example models are presented to demonstrate the capability of this technique to predict accurately the output power contours, 50 ohm large-signal S21, and 3rd order intermodulation products (through additional file-based model).
Finally, a modeling technique is demonstrated to enable predicting the linear memory effect within a varying load condition. The nonlinear block used in the traditional two-box model structure is replaced with the large-signal loadpull model mentioned above. By adding this new feature, the resulting model is able to predict the load-related AM-AM and AM-PM properties, which will improve the accuracy of ACPR prediction.

At Greenwich High School the Girls Dance Team is on a tear. Robin Bologna, who is in her second year as captain, and co-captains Sarah Bueller and Bianca Cardini took time from their rehearsal schedule to talk about dance team.
At a recent competition at Woodland Regional High School, the team placed third in the varsity jazz category.
The win came as a surprise for the team.
Not only did the girls do their own choreography while other teams hire professionals, but the GHS girls are mostly known in Greenwich for their half-time hip-hop routines.
"It was the 'Dancing in the Woods' category and there were eight teams," Bianca explained. "We didn't have our hip hop dance ready yet, but we had spent a lot of time to make the jazz dance competition-ready."
The girls have another competition coming up in two weeks at Fairfield Warde where they'll dance compete in both jazz and hip-hop. Then it's on to State's in Hamden.
The captains said their jazz dance came to life last summer, when they choreographed the routine in their limited free time. During the school year time is even more limited.
"We don't have practice on Monday or Thursday, so we'd go to Robin's to choreograph. Also during finals and mid terms," Sarah said. "It's a lot to get done."
"It was hard because the three of us were in my small basement," Robin explained.
"We didn't know what it would look like with the whole team dancing," Sarah said of the jazz routine, which is to the song Feel Again by OneRepublic. More recently the girls have perfected their hip-hop routine.
The dance team mainly performs at boys football and basketball games, though the disruption caused by the leak in the gymnasium has moved games to other venues. Unfortunately, since the dance team are not provided buses, they haven't been able to perform at the boys basketball games.
That said, on Thursday night, the dance team will perform their winning jazz routine at half time during the girls basketball game which will be played at Brunswick School.
"No one here has seen our jazz routine yet," Robin said.
"A lot of people think, 'Oh we love the dance team. They can move,'" Sarah said. "Jazz dancing involves more skill than hip-hop."
All three girls come to the dance team from different middle schools and dance backgrounds.
Robin has been dancing at Allegra Dance Greenwich since she was three, taking a variety of classes. In addition to dance team, she currently spends on average 8 hours taking ballet, pointe, jazz & tap classes. She teaches tap class to young dancers at Allegra and has studied during the summer at Joffrey Ballet and Broadway Dance Center both in New York City.
Sarah started at St. Saviour's School of Dance in Old Greenwich when she was five, taking basic ballet and tap class, and was in the competition class for five years.
Bianca also started dancing at three. She became a passionate dancer when she started taking classes at Greenwich Dance Studio. In fact, all three captains continue to take classes in addition to their dance team commitment.
The dance team has two upcoming competitions at end of the month. They will travel to Fairfield Warde and State's last weekend of Feb in Hamden.
A unique feature of dance team is that it is both a Varsity sport and a club.
Unlike the cheerleaders, who have a second tryout for winter sports season, the dance team's roster is the same for two seasons.
"We start in September and go to March," Sarah said. "Once fall ends we don't have a second try out. The team stays the same."
The captains said their unique status as a club affords some opportunities a sports teams don't have. Because they're not sanctioned by CIAC – they can schedule some of their rehearsals at Allegra Dance Greenwich.
Also, because of their club status they can do activities teams can't always do under the umbrella of GHS Athletics.
On March 7, 2020 at Allegra Dance Greenwich, 37 West Putnam Ave, the dance team will hold a "Young Dancers Workshop" where elementary school, middle school grades 6&7, and grade 8 will learn hip hop and jazz routines and take photos with the dance team. No experience is necessary.
For some it will be their first dance experience. For eighth graders it's a chance to meet GHS dance team members and learn about the team.

Although research is the backbone of HEQCO's work, that type of work cannot exist in a vacuum. As a provincial government agency focused on sector improvement, HEQCO recognizes the importance of cross-sector collaboration and knowledge sharing and hosting events is one way of cultivating those types of relationships.
From 2011 to 2018, HEQCO hosted an annual conference that brought together representatives from colleges and universities, the K-12 sector, different levels of government and community organizations. Through programs of interactive workshops, presentations and keynote speakers, our conferences served as a way to share knowledge and best practices while fostering connections across the sector.
HEQCO has also convened additional events to examine more specialized topics such as apprenticeship and the skilled trades, work integrated learning, student pathways to postsecondary education and the links between higher education and the labour market.
HEQCO will continue to seek out ways of fostering collaboration and connection between various stakeholders across the postsecondary and broader education spectrum.
Further details on previous HEQCO events, including presentations, can be found below.
John Randall, now an international consultant in the fields of higher education and professional training, spoke in Toronto on March 25 at an event hosted by the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario. During his lecture to more than 100 leaders from Ontario's higher education community, Mr. Randall imparted some of his extensive experience in developing and administrating systems of quality assurance for postsecondary education.
A key component of the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario's mandate is to advise the Minister of Training, Colleges and Universities on the accountability of the postsecondary education sector, particularly on the format and content of Multi-Year Accountability Agreements (MYAAs) between the Ministry and institutions. Thus, the Council welcomed an opportunity to discuss this important challenge at a workshop organized in collaboration with the Council of Ontario Universities (COU) at Ryerson University on November 23, 2007.
The Council's second workshop brought together representatives from all of Ontario's 24 colleges of applied arts and technology to discuss learning quality. The HEQCO/College Dialogue on Learning Research – Present and Future was held on October 17, 2007 and focused on the current state of the colleges' learning related data gathering and research, sharing of successful practices in […]
The National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) Workshop was an important event for HEQCO. It was our first public research venture and focused on two key components of our research plan – learning quality and accountability. It signaled our intent to work closely with established experts to build on existing research and analysis. Finally, it was a valuable opportunity to "test drive" a workshop model that we hope to use on future occasions.

Vajra of the Skies — Monster of the Month #15This month's MOTM is now available on the Jonstown Compendium! Continuing our series of Rune Masters, this month's issue of Monster of the Month presents a shaman of the Golden Bow. Vajra is a grief-stricken elder of the Pure Horse People who wanders the skies of Dragon Pass on the back of the great vrok hawk Sunfriend. He is designed to allow the gamemaster to use him as a tragic antagonist, a flawed mentor, or with a blending of themes. In addition to describing Vajra, this issue includes: A sidebar discussing Drugs in Glorantha, including optional Addiction rules, and four new intoxicants The Sun Horse's Mane, a magic item woven by worshipers of Yu-Kargzant the Sun Horse Two minor spirits associated with Light—Whisperstars and Illumes This supplement is designed to be useful for RuneQuest players who have only the core rulebook. However, some content will be enriched by Chaosium's official publications The Red Book of Magic and/or The Smoking Ruin & Other Stories. Content Warning: This product contains themes of addiction and drug abuse. Please consult with your whole group before introducing those elements into your game. About this Series: Monster of the Month is a series of bestiary entries for Chaosium's RuneQuest: Roleplaying in Glorantha. In addition to statblocks and behavior, most issues include supplemental detail and advice for gamemasters and/or new adventurer options for players.
The Troupe of Terror — Monster of the Month #10This month's issue of Monster of the Month is now available — Happy Halloween! Content Warning: This supplement contains themes of grisly horror and violence. Gamemasters are encouraged to confer with their players before bringing this material to their group's game. The Troupe of Terror presents a gang of six man-eating ogres with which the gamemaster can terrorize their players. Woken to Illumination by the magical performances of the Puppeteer Troupe, they represent the worst evils enabled by that mystical consciousness. Now, these ogres roam Dragon Pass in the guise of minstrels and clowns wielding the reality-warping illusions of the Puppeteer. This supplement includes: A sketch of Illumination and Puppeteer magic, including markers to where the interested reader can learn more. Three adventure seeds to help introduce the Troupe into your game of RuneQuest. Six antagonists with a variety of skills, magics, and stories. A Note: there's fair odds I'll expand this a bit in the next few days or weeks. I've got a short story in the works I'd like to include but I'm not quite satisfied with, and of course I still need to add the printer-friendly versions at the back of the PDF.

A Sally Into the Uncanny Valley
seneschal posted a topic in Call of CthulhuI don't want to derail the Monster Creation thread. But I do want to discuss what monsters you find disturbing and why. As I mentioned earlier, some critters scare me more than others. Gollum, The Stepford Wives, and the Pod People from "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" are creepier to me than, say, the Universal Monsters or King Kong. Maybe it is because the threat is more personal than Godzilla, who will stomp anybody, or a horde of zombies, who will eat anybody. In the former case, they're coming after YOU specifically. In the same vein (pun intended), the modern day vampire from the original "The Night Stalker" TV movie scared me more than any version of Dracula I've seen. He drove a car, raided a blood bank for supplies, kidnapped and kept a woman prisoner as a potential snack (after casually strangling her attack dog), and lived in a rental house that could be just across the street from yours. Yikes! Somehow, the vicious orcs from "The Two Towers" or the titular apes from the original "Planet of the" series didn't affect me the same way. Sure, I wouldn't want to meet them in a dark alley (or in a daylit street) but the fear factor, the eerie chill down one's spine, wasn't the same. Likewise, the assorted androids from the original Star Trek (or the Cylons from Battlestar Galactica, or Doctor Who's Daleks) weren't nearly as terrifying to me as the Borg. The others merely want to kill or enslave you. The Borg want to make you one of them. Why do you think this is so? What monsters scare you particularly and what makes them so eerie?
Giant Monster From Cardboard
seneschal posted a topic in Call of CthulhuI know a lot of folks here don't use miniatures in their games but this project was so cool I had to share it. Although the critter is intended for D&D I can totally see it attacking Cthulhu investigators. Made of toilet paper tubes and glue.
Broo Warband StatblocksI made these statblocks while adapting the adventure "The Ancient City" from the Wheel of Time D20 campaign Prophecies of the Dragon for use in my RQG game. Figured since I spent the time writing them up, I may as well share them, in case anyone needs some quick stats apart from what's in the Bestiary. The file's also got the McGuffin artifact the adventurers are looking for, the Artifice of Brassion (written up in the Plunder format), as well as a high-powered Lunar priestess, Kryalyn, and her initiate companion Llana (both formerly of the Aes Sedai, in WoT). It should be noted that the Artifice isn't exactly intended for player use. But, if they manage to figure it out, good on 'em, I say. In the source material, it's used to "gentle" a male channeler. I.e., stop magician from being magic. broo warband.doc
quick overwiev of supplements for Legend
muminalver posted a topic in LegendHi, I am curious of the supplements for legend, specially the arcane and blood magic, does they contain spells for summoning demons, elementals? And what does equipment book contain? Rules for henchmen?
Hi! So, I'm looking to start of campaign for this with some of my friends, we have all only played Dungeons and Dragons before. A couple of questions: 1. What's the easiest way of understanding difficulty of encountered creatures? Is there some equivalent of a "challenge rating" for this? I get that this game is a lot less combat focused, but I also want to avoid having my players run into an enemy that just squishes them immediately. 2. As far as I can tell, there isn't supplemental material devoted entirely to new monster stats like a "monster manual." Do any of the supplements I'm seeing for sale have a lot more monsters in them? Thanks for the help!

[JBE] What Else Are You Interested in Seeing
dmccoy1693 posted a topic in LegendIf you haven't seen, we just released the 5 cults that I published on my website for free in a single downloadable PDF: Legendary Factions: Common Factions 1. If you like this kind of "try before you buy" style of publishing, be sure to pick up these cults. If this first publication is a success, we'd like to continue the free item a week and bundle it up into a new product. We've got a number of ideas: New Monsters: I've published 2 monster books for Pathfinder and I am thinking about converting them over to Legend. NPCs: Would you like to see a book of NPCs? My thought would be start off with common NPCs like a town guard, captain of the guard, beggar, thief, black smith, nobleman, etc and then later publish a villain and his/her henchmen. How does that sound? Cults: As you've seen but with more customization. Spells: Common, divine, arcane, blood, etc. 2-3/week.

As the word sneaks out a little further each day, I have more and more people contacting me and asking if it's true. Can they get life insurance at affordable rates even though they have bipolar disorder? I wish I could claim that the answer is unequivocally yes, but that isn't true for any portion of the population.
All people have to meet criteria. If you are in the disgustingly healthy group then you to have meet all of the disgustingly healthy criteria to get the best rates. If you have diabetes you have to show that you are compliant with your treatment and have good control of the disease. If you have high blood pressure you have to show that you are compliant with your treatment and that it is well controlled.
While there are a few more disclaimers with bipolar, it is underwritten essentially the same as other health issues with about 2% of the life insurance companies. Assume going in that 98% of life insurance companies will run screaming DECLINEEEEE into the dark if you mention bipolar. The 2% that are left won't insure you if you have high blood pressure that is out of control, diabetes that is out of control or bipolar that is out of control.
I would say something like, "At the risk of being redundant", but the truth is I rather thrive on redundancy. I even invented my own word, redundiferous, to describe how exponentially redundant I can be. Lost my train of thought there……
The criteria for getting good rates if you have bipolar disorder are as follows. 1. No hospitalization for bipolar in the last 10 years unless it was a short stay to determine the diagnosis. 2. No suicide attempts ever. 3. You can't be on disability for bipolar (if it disables you it hardly meets the qualification of being controlled) 4. Medical records would need to show that you are compliant with your treatment and 5. You need to be able to present a stable family and job life.
You can present an A+ report card on all of those items to 98% of the companies out there and they will decline you. It takes an independent agent with knowledge of bipolar disorder and where to find the hidden 2% in order to turn that report card into an approved life insurance policy.
Bottom line. There really is nothing different with underwriting bipolar versus heart disease or epilepsy, diabetes or hypertension. Out of control doesn't get it. In control does.

El Paso shooting documentary '915' focuses on how racist shooter scarred 'beautiful' city
Mass shootings seemed to happened somewhere else.
Littleton. Aurora. Blacksburg. Orlando. Sandy Hook. Las Vegas.
But Texas has had its share of tragedies, beyond the four in a 22-month span from November 2017 through August 2019.
Thirteen killed in 2009 at Fort Hood.
Think Luby's Cafeteria shooting in 1991, when 23 people were gunned down.
Think back to August 1966, when a man fatally shot 15 people from atop the tower at the University of Texas at Austin.
But to documentary filmmaker Charlie Minn, the worst is the Aug. 3 shooting inside and outside a Walmart store in east El Paso. That morning, 23 people were killed and 23 wounded.
It ranks as the seventh deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history.
Racism, hate change the script
In an interview with the Reporter-News, Minn said the difference is motive. The El Paso shooting was racially motivated, an assault by an Allen resident driving 660 miles west to shoot Hispanics in this Texas-Mexico border city, he said.
"Hispanics were targeted and this is completely unacceptable," he said in an MSNBC interview. "This needs attention, and it also needs activism."
He believes the "hate aspect has been ignored."
"This has to stop," he told MSNBC.
MORE:Racism and the Aug. 3 shooting: One year later, El Paso reflects on the hate behind the attack
A 10-year resident of El Paso who has made 33 documentary films, he turned to his craft as a way to do something about it.
This week, his film "915: Hunting Hispanics" opens Wednesday at Premiere Lux Cine 10 in Abilene. His work has shown here before.
"I think it's so significant because it deals with racism at the highest level," Minn said of his two-hour film. "I don't think enough has been talked about that because it's obviously a difficult conversation to have."
"915" opened Oct. 8 in El Paso and still is on screens there, he said Tuesday. It has played in larger Texas cities and opened Friday in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Abilene, he said, is no less important in terms of getting a conversation on race started.
"I invite every Hispanic in Abilene to come watch this movie to start a serious dialogue about why there is racism toward them," he said. "Difficult conversations can lead to change."
Minn will be here, both to talk at the Abilene Public Library's Mall of Abilene branch before the 6 p.m. showing, then to participate in a question-and-answer session after the movie is shown.
Las Cruces, Juárez and then El Paso
A Korean-American, Minn was born in Boston and grew up in New York City. In 2010, he came to the desert Southwest, to Las Cruces, N.M., to do a documentary at the 20th anniversary of what he called the Bowling Alley Massacre.
He was intrigued by the February 1990 shooting of seven people, four fatally, in what he said is the largest unsolved mass shooting in U.S. history.
Formerly with TV's "America's Most Wanted: America Fights Back," he found it to be "deplorable." Children were shot, he said.
"It crippled the community. When do you ever hear the term 'unsolved mass shooting?' For a city to have that label on them, in one word that's embarrassing," Minn said.
"This is not New York or L.A., where something I guess could slip through the cracks. Someone has to know something," he said, citing the likelihood of corruption in keeping the shooting from being solved.
MORE:The Las Cruces bowling alley massacre happened 30 years ago — will it ever be solved?
His film, "A Nightmare in Las Cruces," was sold to Lionsgate and stirred talk and new leads. Still, the case remains unsolved.
That project led him 40 miles south to El Paso.
"I thought I was going to make that one movie and leave that area, but that's when the lid came off in Juárez," Minn said. "Not just on the women but the violence overall. It was a human rights disaster."
He settled in El Paso to document that violence and now has split time between El Paso and New York City.
Texas Monthly in 2012 noted the 10,000th death attributed to drug violence that escalated along the border in 2008.
"Mexicans die as we get high and that's no lie" was a description he used when talking about his 2016 film "Es El Chapo?" that was shown in 2014 in Abilene. He said at the time that 120,000 people had died or gone missing in Mexico since 2006, during the government crackdown on drug cartels. Other human rights watchers halved that total, but even 60,000 was an eye-popping number.
While violence raged across the Rio Grande River, El Paso remained relatively safe, he said. Ironically, he said he has been asked why he hadn't previously made a movie based in El Paso. Because, he said, innocent people were not getting murdered there.
"The good news is that there were hardly any murders in El Paso," he said. "I'm not surprised that it happened - you see mass shooting all the time.
"I am surprised where it happened."
Another mass murder of Hispanics
When a man opened fire at a Walmart in August 2019, the city was shocked. It could not be one of its own, Minn reasoned, and it proved to be an outsider.
"This was not in El Paso's nature to have someone do this," he said. "El Paso has a whole different karma."
Minn told MSNBC, "I have never lived in a city that is more family-driven than El Paso."
The shooting is one in a succession in Texas that began with the Sutherland Springs church massacre (26 killed) in November 2017. Six months later was the Santa Fe High School shooting (10 killed). The Walmart shooting was followed 28 days later by the Midland-Odessa shooting (7 killed).
While the El Paso shooting qualifies as a mass shooting, Minn said it should not simply be added to an awful list.
Of the 10 deadliest shootings, three specifically targeted Hispanics, he said. The other two are the 1984 McDonald's shooting in San Ysidro district of San Diego, Calif. and the 2016 Pulse gay nightclub shooting in Orlando.
There, 49 were killed by a shooter on "Latino Night," Minn said, estimating only 1% of Americans would even know how these three tragedies are connected.
MORE:El Paso filmmaker Charlie Minn hopes Pulse shooting documentary gets national audience
Minn noted the San Ysidro shooter also was white and points to the similarity in statistics — 23 shot fatally in El Paso and 21 (of 40 people shot) in San Ysidro. Yet, he said, the media did not compare the two shootings.
The only apparent difference is that the San Ysidro killer was shot to death by a police sniper while the El Paso shooter "basically turned himself in" to law enforcement after driving away from the crime scene.
Thus, these crimes of hate and racism must be addressed, he said.
The shooter, 21-year-old Patrick Crusius, has been charged with dozens of crimes, including hate crimes. Documents linked to him and posted before the shooting began have racist and white supremacist viewpoints.
Still, Minn believes that has been underplayed, even by the media.
"It's amazing what gets attention in our country and what doesn't," Minn said. The shooting of 46 did not get ignored, but the "hate aspect was ignored."
"Silence means violence," he said. Speaking out leads to conversations, which lead to "movement."
The first step is awareness.
"When I see BLM, Black Lives Matter, yeah that's important, no doubt," Minn said. "But because of the movies I make, I think brown lives matter. That's what I think of BLM."
"The hate aspect has been ignored," he said. "Enough is enough."
Making '915': 'How does this happen?'
"I was a sponge," Minn said of how he approached his documentary. His approach was to see where the story would go.
With more than 30 films done over a 10-year period, he relied on his experience. This project took longer, he said, due to working on it during a pandemic year. He had hoped to premiere "915" on the first anniversary of the massacre.
But with some theater chains staying closed and others opening but with scant attendance, he was unsure when to release the documentary.
When "Tenet" opened with some success Labor Day weekend, he decided "let's go through with this. We won't let the virus hijack us forever."
Minn wanted to see fruition for his project.
"I basically grinded it out. This is what I did for a year," he said. "This is one of my longer efforts."
Because he has lived in El Paso for a decade, he was a known commodity in a city of a half-million people that at times, he said, has a small-town feel.
"I got lucky. People know me. The people that I reached out, they trusted to sit down with me and tell me their story," he said.
He was assisted by Angie Silva, a McDonald's supervisor who went to the store that Aug. 3 to check on her employees.
"She was a huge help to me," he said, noting she first was a consultant whom he asked to be his producer.
Those he spoke with shared their cellphone images, which give viewers a "real and raw look at this tragedy," he said.
"It's an exhausting look at the tragedy. It's a very honest film. It's a very emotional film, the way people pour their hearts out about that day," Minn said.
The first question he had was how the shooter was not stopped by people at the store or by police.
"How does that happen?" he asked. "This is not a scene out of a movie ... this is real life."
The shooter began his spree outside the store, went inside and then shot people back outside before fleeing. Minn noted that while other mass shooters seem to know their fate, this killer got away.
"He basically arrested himself" by turning himself in, Minn said.
He left behind a scene of carnage and chaos.
"This is the real deal," he said. "I am going to put you at the scene. That's what a good documentary film should do. This is all raw and scary.
"I got lucky. I reached out to the people who had the cellphone footage. I got lucky where people said, 'Yeah, you can use it.'"
If this had been his first film, or he was not an El Paso resident, he might not have had that kind of access.
Those images and the stories combine to make the impact Minn sought.
"There is so much cellphone footage," he said, "you're going to feel like you were there that morning."
And there are the words.
"You hear it right from the people who were shot, direct eyewitnesses, family members, good Samaritans," he said of his documentary. "Just about every question under the sun is asked. Questions about racism.
"It's all there in the movie."
Toeing the line of politics
Minn said it's almost impossible to do a film, especially one that goes 120 minutes, without getting political.
"I don't get political in this film ... just a little bit, because once you get political, you divide the room and you forget 46 people were shot."
He said he tried to find "that right balance" and let the people he interviewed and the cellphone images he obtained tell the story.
In his interview with the Reporter-News, Minn did make his points, however.
He said El Paso police "blew that whole thing."
"They actually did a horrible job and got there too late," Minn said.
He said the shooting took roughly four minutes but police arrived in six minutes, after the shooter had gotten away. Thus, some victims likely died from bleeding out over 20 to 30 minutes while police secured the scenes.
"How many of these bodies could've been saved? That is the $64,000 question," he said. "The film goes into great detail and is a complete sweep of what happened that day."
Also, he noted that if anyone in the store was armed, no one attacked the shooter, whom he never names in the film.
"Maybe they were but they panicked. Maybe they froze, maybe they ran," he said.
"It's one thing to have a gun and one thing to actually use a gun."
Minn said the shooter's manifesto, believed to have been written by him, included "Donald Trump's rhetoric matched some of the manifesto" that Crusius is believed to have posted online.
"This attack is a response to the Hispanic invasion of Texas," the document reportedly stated.
"Something like that is a fact. I am not trying to state my political view and opinions," Minn said. "I barely touch on that and why no one tried to take (the shooter) out."
Doing that avoided the gun rights debate, he said.
Minn said the presidential run by former U.S. Rep. Beto O'Rourke ended when, post El Paso shooting, he advocated for taking assault weapons back from citizens.
"He was right but he was wrong. You're not going to beat the NRA," Minn said. "You have to pick your battles."
Going forth with greater dialogue
While he hopes his documentary generates change, Minn said one thing that should stay the same.
"El Paso should not change," he told MSNBC. "El Paso, you're beautiful as it is."
The healing will take time, he said 15 months after the tragedy.
But, he said, hearts must change much sooner.
"If you don't touch on these issues," Minn said, "it's going to continue. I'd like to see more dialogue from Hispanics, specifically Mexican people. If there is no discussion about this, history tells me these things will continue."

London to get new disputes hearing centre
As London International Disputes Week (LIDW19) kicks off, Delos arrives in London with a new hearing centre and the relocation of its president, while the Scotland highlights benefits and next year's ICCA in Edinburgh.
Delos Dispute Resolution has announced its president and co-founder, Hafez Virjee, is relocating to London and working full time at the institution. The announcement is in conjunction with an announcement that Delos is to set up a new hearing centre in London.
Smaller disputes access
As the international disputes community gathers in London for LIDW19, London is to get a new centre in the first half of 2020 called LONDAP, the London-Delos ADR Place. In addition to hearing facilities, LONDAP will also include a conference centre for use by the international arbitration community and offices for Delos. The hearing centre will include an access programme for smaller disputes and more modest users. The firm says access to justice also requires access to well-equipped and affordable facilities. As reported last week on Global Legal Post, a Parliamentary inquiry heard concerns about the facilities offered by LCIA, and a plea by independent arbitrator Lucy Greenwood for smaller disputes to get more attention. Delos cited the GAR-CIArb Seat Index for London (2018) that "London would benefit from even more capacity" for hearing facilities and is falling short "in the face of competition from newer centres that offer … state-of-the-art hearing facilities." Speaking to Global Legal Post, Mr Virjee said "LIDW and LONDAP have one key point in common: the international arbitration community's confidence in London's continuing strength as a major IA hub. The global IA community is investing heavily in LONDAP, which in turn will provide London with the sort of state-of-the-art facility that sets new standards for what can be expected of a leading arbitration centre."
Global community
Mr Virjee was an international arbitration senior associate at Dechert (Paris), but has relocated from Paris to London to spearhead the Delos operation in London with Iain McKenny, another Delos founder who is also director and co-founder of third-party funder Profile Investment. Having been based out of Paris for the past five years, this London initiative aims to expand the firm's international footprint. Delos will retain its registered address in Paris. LONDAP, according to Delos, differs in seeking to bring together the global community rather than just that in London, and in making the opportunity available to younger practitioners as well. This is part of its broader philosophy of serving the community across all arbitration hubs, both large and the lesser-known ones, and to bring together the different generations of the community.
'Scots Wha Hae' arbitration
On the eve of LIDW19, the Scottish Arbitration Centre held a reception hosted by Laura Devine Solicitors, the London and New York firm. Chairman of the board Brandon Malone, joined by chief executive Andrew Mackenzie - both resplendent in the centre's own tartan - outlined the benefits of Scotland as an arbitration seat and offered a look ahead to the XXVth International Council for Commercial Arbitration Congress (ICCA), which will be held in Edinburgh 10 to 13 May, 2020. Special guest was James Wolffe QC, the lord advocate and the chief legal officer of the Scottish Government. For London guests, 'Scots Wha Hae' is translated as 'Scots who have' and is the name of a Robert Burns poem.

Going into the 2012-2013 season, few had Prince Albert Raiders defenseman Josh Morrissey as a first-round pick, but thanks to a blazing offensive season from the Calgary, Alberta native he has torpedoed into a potential top-15 pick, and is right up there challenging Ryan Pulock to be the second-best WHL blue-line prospect after Seth Jones.
Morrissey is an explosive offensive defenseman who can skate with the best of them and quarterback a highly efficient powerplay. He also has significant international and high-pressure experience winning gold with Canada at the Ivan Hlinka U-18 tournament, leading all defensemen in scoring (tied) while posting the event's top plus/minus. He followed up a solid 38-point point rookie campaign in 2012 with 47 in 70 games points in 2013.
|Prince Albert Raiders (WHL)
|Prince Albert Raiders (WHL)
Morrissey is a slightly undersized defenseman (6'0", 185 lbs) who doesn't shy away from physical contact, in fact delivering the type of hits that we have become used to seeing from a current young blue-liner wearing the bleu-blanc-rouge. That's right. Josh Morrissey may not be P.K. Subban, but nobody thought PK would become the force we know now when he was drafted back in 2007. Morrissey is also a feisty player, recording 91 PIM this year. He has the tools, most importantly elite skating, to potentially become an offensively dynamic top-pairing defenseman. The downside? If his defense doesn't continue to develop and he doesn't bulk up, he may more closely resemble a Marc-Andre Bergeron type of powerplay specialist.
Corey Pronman, Hockey Prospectus:
Morrissey is a dynamic offensive defenseman with a ton of plus skills. He has amassed a considerable number of points for a 1995 birthdate over his last two WHL seasons. His strongest tool is his skating, which is easily high end, if not better. He has a very graceful stride, and his footwork is precise in any direction. His top gear, agility, pivots, and gap control stand out in each game he plays. He is also a top-end puck mover, frequently making aware and accurate passes. He can run the point on a top power play unit, jump into the rush, make a good outlet, and flash a highlight reel play with the puck. His defensive awareness is solid, and he has killed penalties at times. Still, he faces a significant issue in his physicality. I would not describe him as soft, as he can make a quality hit at times, but he often is outmuscled for pucks. Coupling this aspect of his game with his undersized frame makes him a risk at the top level.
Future Considerations:
Morrissey is a strong, two-way blue liner with some excitement to his game...His ability to skate the puck out of trouble is also evident. He may pick the puck out of a scrum and before you can blink he has taken two strong steps up the ice and puts it on a teammates stick...He does that all with great puck control as one of his true strengths. He makes tough passes look way too easy...He doesn't have an overpowering shot but has a knack for getting a quick wrist shot into the goalies pads creating a rebound...Extremely smart player with high hockey IQ...Also plays with a ton of grit in his game...His lack of strength hurts his ability to fend off bigger opponents in the corners and in front of the net but he never backs down...He has the potential to get much stronger in his lower body, as he looks like he's got skinny legs.
McKeen's Hockey:
Natural puckmover - quick and elusive...flows instinctively into the rush and is able to spring quick breakout feeds...packs a powerful and compact slapshot plus a lethal snapshot...can fire a sizzling wristshot in top gear...neither big nor strong by NHL standards - yet has some abrasiveness and cockiness to his game...can be quite soft defending the crease area in particular and will get outmuscled in 1-on-1 battles along the boards...The skill, mobility, and upside give him attractive upside, but his strength and defensive play will have to develop to ensure something more than specialist duty at the NHL level.
ISS Rank: 21
Craig Button Rank: 15
FC Rank: 15
McKeen's Rank: 18
Pronman Rank: 20
Hockey News Rank: 19
Average Rank: 18
Personal Rank: 11
I had originally felt that the Canadiens would absolutely need to trade up to get Morrissey, but as the stocks of other players rise, it's becoming possible that he is available at 25th overall. He is one of my top realistic targets for the team with the potential to develop into a slightly less physical, left-handed complement to PK Subban on the blue-line for years to come.

Really good first-person piece from Tony Parker on his departure from the San Antonio Spurs after 17 years. Parker's farewell ends up reading as a fantastic summation of the Spurs culture – from the veterans looking out for the younger players to Tim Duncan being so coachable to Parker stepping aside for Dejounte Murray to assume the role of starting point guard. This is a great article to pass along to your players with all the lessons that Parker imparts.
Here's the thing, though, with all those experiences, both the "good" ones and the "bad" ones: They all made me a better player — and they all made me a better person. And that's just Pop, man. That's what makes him so special. It's no B.S. when he's giving you these words of encouragement … and it's no B.S. when he's giving you these words of criticism. When he's starting you, when he's benching you, when he's handing you the keys to the offense, or even when he's shopping the keys around in free agency to someone else … man, you're still getting the same Pop, operating on the same principle, every time. And that principle is: anything that happens on his watch, it happens for one reason and one reason only. The good of the Spurs.
