Despite Apple's Denial, iTunes Match is Streaming
Yesterday, we reported that the developer beta of Apple's iTunes Match appeared to show options for both streaming and downloading content from the cloud to a user's device. But some questions have arisen about just how the service functions, as a new report from AllThingsD shares word from an Apple spokesperson that the service is not actually a streaming one.
While a video making the rounds today makes it seem as if Apple’s upcoming iTunes Match service will stream music from Apple’s servers to a user’s device, that’s not the case. An Apple spokesperson confirms that any music you want to access from your cloud-based “locker” will still need to be stored on your iPad, or iPhone, or whatever device you’re using to listen to the song.
The difference appears to be one of semantics, however, with Apple's claims of the service requiring tracks to be downloaded actually related to local caching of streamed tracks.
Traditional streaming services maintain constant connections, buffering only a small amount of the currently-playing track at any given time. Apple's streaming solution appears to download each track in its entirety once streaming begins. Upon tapping on the track to begin playing without initiating the full iCloud download process, the track begins playing immediately just as with other streaming services. But in reality, the full track appears to be downloaded to a local cache on the user's device, allowing for fast access to any portion of the track.
Once the track has been fully played, it remains available in that cache and can be re-accessed without needing to re-stream, but it is not considered permanently downloaded and is not counted as being in the device's music library. A video from Jeff of iDownloadBlog demonstrates a streamed track being replayed after the device is put into Airplane Mode.
As shown in the video, switching away from the cached track while in Airplane Mode appears to empty the cache, and the device is unable to replay the track if the user returns to it.
The result is a service that acts just like a traditional streaming service, but one which may provide a better experience for users, especially in areas of unstable network coverage for those on the go. As noted by AllThingsD, the reason for Apple's implementation appears to not be due to any lack of a license for full-fledged streaming.
Instead, says music executive X, this is a philosophical/design issue on Apple’s part.
Part of it is that Apple doesn’t trust the current telecom ecosystem to handle on-demand streaming of library files every time someone wants to use them — look how much trouble AT&T has had with the iPhone to date. But the other part is that Apple wants its users to think of entertainment as something they consume on Apple device — as opposed to the Google and Amazon approach, which lets consumers grab anything they want on any device with a browser.
Apple has officially remained vague about just how the service works, but it certainly appears that the company has employed a streaming service with expanded caching capabilities allowing for storage of an entire track. Users also have the option to download tracks directly by tapping on the iCloud icon associated with each track.
Thanks to @insanely_great for assistance and clarification.
Update: This YouTube video walks through the streaming vs not streaming debate. | <urn:uuid:aa0d886a-2bbd-48c9-a191-c3256f392030> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.macrumors.com/2011/08/30/despite-apples-denial-itunes-match-is-streaming/ | 2022-01-22T23:47:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320303917.24/warc/CC-MAIN-20220122224904-20220123014904-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.956101 | 692 |

But did you know there are some awesome Outer Banks hiking trails to explore, too? Many are accessible and all that we’ll share in this guide are great for children.
So what are we waiting for? Let’s hop on our favorite Outer Banks trails, specially crafted for kids.
Outer Banks Hiking Trails for Kids (and Adults, Too!)
Note: We’ve included addresses when they’re available. If not, Google Maps or Waze should be able to guide you to the correction location. And if you’d like to see all these Outer Banks hiking trails in visual form, check out our map.
Leave No Trace and Respect the Trails
Before you head out, we want to remind you to leave no trace from these Outer Banks hiking trails. That way, we (and all Outer Banks visitors) can enjoy them as you did.
Also, if any of the trailhead parking lots are full or approaching full, plan to visit another day.
Currituck Banks Reserve
The northernmost trail in our guide is the 965-acre Currituck Banks Coastal Estuarine Reserve. Two paths will take you through this natural habitat, including a 0.6-mile boardwalk that is perfect for kids.
A 1.5-mile primitive trail starts at the end of that boardwalk and weaves through thick forest.
While you’re enjoying the Currituck Banks Reserve, keep an eye out for birds.
This is an important stop along the Atlantic Flyway, which migrating birds follow from Greenland to the Caribbean.
Note that the most northern part of the reserve requires a four-wheel-drive vehicle.
Duck Town Park Boardwalk
Winding along with the sound side shores of Duck, the boardwalk extends nearly a mile and connects most of the town. It’s an accessible trail and a great one for popping in and out of locally-owned shops.
Or you can spend your time just enjoying the sights of the Currituck Sound.
Kitty Hawk Woods Coastal Reserve
At 1,824 acres, Kitty Hawk Woods Reserve is one of the largest swamplands dedicated to preservation. Featuring a two-mile loop, a playground, and numerous primitive trails, it is a perfect kid-friendly Outer Banks trail!
The waters of Kitty Hawk Woods are especially popular among kayakers, also perfect for watching wildlife and even sunsets. This multi-use trail will also take you to a beautiful covered bridge!
We think you should stay on every path, but it’s especially important to do so at Kitty Hawk Woods Reserve.
Because it is home to seven rare and unusual plant varieties. These plants are protected by the State of North Carolina.
They include the coastal goldenrod American featherfoil, wooly beach heather, southern twayblade, marsh pink, shoreline sedge, and wisk fern.
Parking is available at the David Paul Pruitt Park or the Sandy Run Park. To reach the bridge, follow the multi-use trail alongside the road until you reach S Covered Bridge Road. The Bridge will be up the road after a quick jaunt through the forest.
Nags Head Woods Ecological Preserve
701 Ocean Acres Dr, Kill Devil Hills
Nags Head Woods Preserve was designated as a National Natural Landmark in 1974 and is one of the largest maritime forests on the East Coast. More than 150 species of birds, 550 varieties of plants, and 20 mammals have been recorded here.
There is an accessible half-mile loop trail that is perfect for kids. This Outer Banks hiking trail features plenty of beautiful viewpoints and room for children to explore.
In addition to this loop trail, hikers can choose the easy Center Trail or the more challenging Sweet Gum and Blueberry Ridge Trails.
Jockey’s Ridge State Park
300 W Carolista Dr, Nags Head
Not Completely Accessible, but an There’s an Accessible Boardwalk View
Jockey’s Ridge State Park is certainly one of the biggest Outer Banks attractions and there are plenty of ways to explore these massive sand dunes. 420 acres span from the edge of the dunes to Roanoke Sound, providing impressive views all around.
The sand dunes here formed when storm surges pushed offshore shoals and they attract thousands of tourists each year. The park is popular for hang gliding, sandboarding, and kite flying
We also think (and others agree) that Jockey’s Ridge has some of the best kid-friendly hiking in the Outer Banks.
Children can run through the sand or explore the Soundside Nature Trail, which is a mile loop. It begins at the Sound Side Park, runs through marshlands, and offers a beautiful scenic overlook.
There are two more kid-friendly hikes at Jockey’s Ridge. One is a small accessible boardwalk near the main entrance, with educational signs explaining local flora and fauna.
And if you (and your kids) are looking for more of a challenge, the Tracks in the Sand Nature Trail is a 1.5-mile trek over the sand dunes to the Roanoke Sound. This one also starts at the Visitor Center.
Bonus Jockey’s Ridge Fun: The Sand Castle!
If you’re up for an extra challenge, walk over to the castle in the sand! This the what remains from a 70s era putt-putt course that was eventually swallowed up by Jockey’s Ridge’s ever-changing dunes.
To reach this hidden gem, park at Kitty Hawk Kites and cross US 12. You should be able to see the castle from the road, but many people don’t even realize it’s there!
Bodie Island Lighthouse
8210 Bodie Island Lighthouse, Nags Head
Wandering through the marshes of Oregon Inlet, the trail at Bodie Island Lighthouse is fantastic for children of all ages. The half-mile nature trail offers great views of the Lighthouse as well as a chance to watch crabs from the observation deck.
Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge
14500 NC-12, Rodanthe
Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge is an incredible destination for bird enthusiasts. But did you know there are quick, easy, and kid-friendly trails here?
There are two officially designated paths at Pea Island. The North Pond Wildlife Trail is only half a mile long while the slightly shorter Salt Flats Wildlife Trail provides beautiful views of North Pond.
Canoe tours and summer programming accompany these awesome Outer Banks hiking trails. Above all, remember to bring some binoculars and a bird identification guide for a fun educational experience!
Old Doctor’s Rd (4WD) or Water Association Road, Hatteras
Alongside the unspoiled beaches of Hatteras Island, Buxton Woods is often among the overlooked Outer Banks hiking trails. They’re also kid-friendly but because of preservation efforts, the paths at Buxton Woods are not as easy to find.
But once you do, it is worth it!
Buxton Woods is the largest forest on the Outer Banks. And while there are several established trails, the most popular and kid-friendly one starts from the picnic area near Hatteras Lighthouse.
The Buxton Woods Trail is a 3/4-mile loop that traverses some of the highest points on Hatteras Island. This path is perfect for listening to the busy sounds of the migrating birds, identifying various plants, and enjoying the wonderful wildlife found along the National Parks-managed Cape Hatteras National Seashore.
Another option is the longer Open Ponds Trail, which starts from the British Cemetery. It is also part of North Carolina’s Mountains to Sea Trail.
Sea Breeze Trail Through the Hatteras Village Park
57262 Eagle Pass Rd Hatteras, NC 27953
The Sea Breeze Trail is a very short and beautifully maintained path, with educational markers along the way. Winding over a maritime forest and salt marsh, the trail is mostly accessible and a perfect way to connect with nature.
Hammock Hills Nature Trail
Located on Ocracoke Island, the Hammock Hills Nature Trail is a lovely 3/4-mile loop that wanders through diverse seaside vegetation. Hitting some of the highest points on the island, a spectacular view awaits halfway along the trail.
From there, you’ll look out into Pamlico Sound. You can find the trailhead on Highway 12 across from the National Park Service-managed Ocracoke Campground.
Among all the Outer Banks hiking trails we’ve shared, this one is great for kids because it offers plenty of birding opportunities from the viewing platform!
Ready for These Outer Banks Hiking Trails?
We hope you’re as excited to try these Outer Banks trails as we have been while exploring them.
It was a joy putting this guide together because it reminds us of just how much beauty one can find when exploring North Carolina’s barrier islands.
And if you’ve gotten out there, we’d love to know which of these trails you love, too? For first-time visitors or folks itching for their first hike, let us know which of these Outer Banks trails seems most interesting to you. | <urn:uuid:8775d6c1-144f-403a-8a4f-fc6b838160d7> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.nctripping.com/outer-banks-hiking-trails/ | 2022-01-23T00:28:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320303917.24/warc/CC-MAIN-20220122224904-20220123014904-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.916655 | 2,018 |

We published Death in Sils Maria – a translation of Ulrich Knellwolf’s Tod in Sils Maria — 17 üble Geschichten. This is the first English translation of the book and was translated by Cambridge resident Iris Hunter.

I love brainstorming. Put me in a room with a white board, a dry erase marker, and a few smart, playful colleagues, and we’ll talk and laugh and mind-map our way to astounding ingenuity.
But sometimes brainstorming gets bad press. Thinking by committee is not comfortable for everyone. Even open-minded, collaborative people can fall prey to limited thinking and time wasting, rather than mental breakthroughs.
Fortunately, idea-conjuring can be a solo activity.
One of my favorite methods for independent brainstorming is making a list. But to generate innovative thoughts, your list has to be the right length.
The perfect length for a list of ideas? Thirty-nine. Yep, 39. Just shy of 40 but well past two dozen.
Why make lists of 39?
- Because 7 is not enough, and neither is 10.
- Because numbers that end in 5 are too tidy.
- Because 50 and 100 are overwhelming.
- Because once you’ve reached 25 or 30, why not just keep going?
A list of 39 is a reasonable stretch. It gets you past the first, easy ideas that fall from the top of your mind. It pushes you into unfamiliar territory.
What’s the science behind 39?
There isn’t any. At least not that I know of. I totally made up the Theory of 39. It’s based on 0% scientific research, 50% intuition, and 50% real-life experience busting past lame concepts to find great ideas.
And it works. Here’s how listing 39 things typically goes for me:
- Choose a topic (excuses for my messy office, jobs I would hate, historical figures who’d be good spokespeople for ice cream)
- Rapidly drop 5 or 10 items into a list.
- Hesitate, briefly.
- Resume listing, more slowly, generating 10 to 15 more ideas. Maybe a couple more.
- Pause … uncomfortably. This is a long, uneasy moment when I feel ashamed of my limited creativity. I want to quit. “Oh well, 26 is good enough.”
- Pull shoulders back. Breathe deeply. “I am no quitter.”
- Type or write remaining numbers, all the way to 39.
Mind you: I’m saying I just number the page. No ideas. Just a series of lines with a couple digits followed by a period and a long blank space.
That’s all the motivation I need. Somewhere in the back of my mind, turbo boosters ignite a new surge of thinking. Crazy, unexpected wisdom. A few minutes later, I realize I’ve blown past 39 and am well into the 40s. Maybe even the 50s.
The Theory of 39 works for blog topics and conference themes and career moves and vacation plans and I-don’t-know-what-else.
You tell me.
If you don’t have an immediate brainstorming need and can’t think of what to list, here’s a prompt I like: Tell me 39 things you always do. Start with actions like “brush teeth before bed” and “run spellcheck before hitting the send button.” Then, after the easy stuff, see where listing takes you.
Whatever you do, don’t give up at 26.
Try the Theory of 39, and let me know how it works for you. Tell me the unexpected ideas that appear in your list of 39 things. Tell me about your most surprising revelation.

March 18, 1954 - March 16, 2017
After an almost 3 year battle recovery from a traumatic brain injury, Glenn Johannes died on March 16th, 2017 at the St cloud hospital. He leaves behind a son and daughters, Ryan (Robin) of Berkeley, CA, Jenny of Rockville, and Melissa (Tom) of Waite Park; grandchildren, Tanner, Rhiannon and Griffin. Mother; Mary Johannes. Brothers, Daryl (Kathie) Johannes, Mark (Bonnie) Johannes, Jeff Johannes (Mary Johannes), Chuck Johannes, and Troy Johannes; Sisters, Sharon (Jo Hudson) Johannes and Linda Johannes. His father preceded his death. Glenn was born on March 18, 1954 at St. Cloud Hospital. He was born to Robert and Mary (Kuebelbeck) Johannes. He graduated from Rocori High School in 1972. Glenn was a loving and devoted husband, father and grandfather. He was a man of simple needs. He started his career as a stone mason, building beautiful mausoleums in almost every state in the US. He moved on to installing commercial garage doors for over 30 years. Glenn was a social man much loved by many. He was the “Norm” of his local taverns, the guy everyone wanted to talk to after they walked through the door. He loved hunting with is family, playing with his grand kids and listening to classic country songs. Glenn cherished the farm and could be found “relaxing” by puttering around on his Bobcat or Massey Ferguson. Always tending to the animals, the vegetable gardens and a myriad of other projects to keep him busy. Boredom was not in his playbook, he was a hard working man in all areas of his life. We are grateful for the time we had with him but are thankful the suffering is over and he can now be reunited with his wife. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him. Glenn requested to be cremated. A celebration of life will be held at River of Life Assembly of God Church in Cold Spring. It will take place on April 1, 2017 at 1pm; all are welcome. The family would like to extend a special thank you to Linda Johannes and Steve Link for all the care, love, and compassion they devoted to Glenn while he lived with them in Shakopee. Also a big thank you to the amazing gifts of time, energy, service and money that have been given from the community, friends and family over the past few years. An outpouring of blessings that have not gone unnoticed.

We have had the best time testing out some great new activities for children and young people. Thank you to everyone who has joined in and helped us find our sparkle again.
Our Take Part in Art term-time sessions were hugely popular, and we loved creating some great pieces of art with you.
We hope that, one day not too far away, we will be able to invite everyone to take part in a real-life gallery. For now, our ‘virtual gallery’ includes some of our favourite moments and makes.
Our Take Part in Art pilot project was partly funded by a contribution from Yorkshire Building Society, following research with local children, young people and parents about how we might help everyone during and after the pandemic.
Over 60 children and young people from across Doncaster took part.
Due to the pandemic, most sessions were held in small groups and a small number took place online. All of the sessions were free to join, with many of them having waiting lists.
Whilst we were making and creating, our young artists also developed friendships, grew in confidence and plucked up the courage to start something new – quite a big thing after over a year of lockdowns and restrictions.

As soon as a baby’s first teeth appear—usually by age six months or so—the child is susceptible to decay. This condition is often referred to as Baby Bottle Tooth Decay or Early Childhood Caries (cavities). In some unfortunate cases,infants and toddlers have experienced severe tooth decay that has resulted in dental restorations or extractions. The good news is that decay is preventable.
What causes tooth decay A thin, sticky colorless film of bacteria called plaque covers teeth. The bacteria produce acids that can attack tooth enamel. When sugary food or liquid remains in the mouth after eating, the bacteria have more time to produce decay-causing acid.
What is Baby Bottle Tooth Decay Baby bottle tooth decay is a condition that can destroy the primary teeth of an infant or young child. It occurs when the child’s teeth are frequently exposed to sugary liquids for long periods. These liquids include milk (even breast milk), formula, fruit juice and other sweetened liquids.
They're just baby teeth, aren't they? Humans, like most mammals, have two sets of teeth: primary (baby) and permanent (adult). Some people think that primary teeth are not important because they will eventually fall out to make room for adult teeth. On the contrary, primary teeth "hold" space in the jaw for the permanent teeth. They help the child chew, which is essential for a healthy diet. They help the child learn to pronounce words and give structure to the face.
By the time a child is born, 20 primary teeth usually have formed inside the gums. The front four teeth typically begin to appear when the baby is between age six months and one year. Most children have a set of 20 primary teeth by the time they are three years old.
Unfortunately, tooth decay can begin as soon as the teeth emerge. It is the baby’s upper front teeth that are usually affected, but decay can damage other teeth, too.
Decay in the primary teeth can cause pain and can harm the erupting permanent teeth that are still growing inside the gums. Even though they’re not visible until the child is about six years old, the permanent teeth begin to develop tooth enamel as early as three to four months after birth. Disease can spread to the hidden permanent teeth. And the decay can be associated with general health problems in some children.
If primary teeth are lost prematurely, the emerging adult teeth may shift, resulting in an irregular bite that could require additional treatment. If primary teeth are kept healthy until they’re ready to fall out on their own, there is a better chance of the adult teeth erupting in normal alignment.
What can i do to keep baby's teeth healthy Babies rely on parents or caregivers for good health. Take an active role in caring for the baby’s teeth by cleaning them at home, providing a balanced diet and scheduling regular dental visits.
Never allow a baby or toddler to fall asleep with a bottle that contains milk, formula, fruit juices, sweetened liquids or a pacifier dipped in sugar or honey. Even diluted sweet drinks can be damaging. Infants should finish their bedtime or naptime bottle (or breastfeeding) before going to bed.
Start oral care early. Wipe the baby’s gums with a clean gauze pad after each feeding. Begin brushing your child’s teeth with water as soon as the first tooth appears. If you are considering using fluoride toothpaste before the child’s second birthday, ask your dentist or physician first. When choosing oral care products, look for those that display the American Dental Association’s Seal of Acceptance.
To reduce the chances of tooth decay, children should be encouraged to drink from a cup by their first birthday.
Talk to your dentist about scheduling the child’s first visit. It’s beneficial for the first visit to occur within six months of the eruption of the first tooth and no later than the baby’s first birthday. Consider your child’s first visit as a "healthy baby checkup" for his or her teeth.
During the visit, your dentist can show you how to properly clean the child’s teeth. Besides checking for tooth decay and other conditions like thumb sucking, your dentist can explain fluoride and the right amount that a child needs for healthy teeth. The dentist may also recommend oral care products for your family.
In many cases, parents rely on others to care for the baby at least part of the time. Be sure to share information about preventing baby bottle tooth decay with caregivers. Keeping baby’s smile healthy is a team effort.
Although it might be right under their noses, some people aren't aware that they have offensive breath. Bad breath, or halitosis (pronounced "hal-i-TOE-sis"), is an unpleasant condition that often is cause for embrassement.
Certain foods, tobacco, aclohol and some prescription or over-the-counter drugs may cause mouth odors. In a small percentage of cases, bad breath may have a systemic origin (something that affects the body generally) such as a respiratory tract condition or other ailments.
However, major source of bad breath in healthy people is microbial deposits on the tongue, especially the back of the tongue, where a bacterial coating harbors organisms and debris that contribute to bad breath. Some studies have shown that simply brushing the tongue reduced bad breath measurements by 70 percent.
Food stuck between teeth, around the gums and on the tongue may leave an unpleasant odor as it decays.Dentures tat are not cleaned properly also can harbor odor-causing food and bacteria.
Certain foods, such as garlic and onions, contribute to objectionable breath because they contain odor-causing compounds. When these compounds enter the bloodstream, ther are transferred to the lungs, where they are exhaled. Using mouthwash temporarily masks mouth odor. Few studies have examined the long-term effetiveness of a particular mouthwash on reducing bad breath.
Periodontal disease, a condition in which bacteria attack the tissues that surround and support teeth, may paly a role in creating bad breath.
Dry mouth, or xerostomia (pronounced "zero-STOW-me-uh"), is another condition that can cause bad breath. Under normal conditions, saliva removes many particles that cause odor. Dry mouth occurs when the flow of saliva decreases. Some medications, salivary gland problems or continuous mouth breathing also may contribute to bad breath. If you have dry mouth, your dentist may prescribe artificial saliva or suggest using sugarless candy and increasing your fluid intake.
Tobacco products cause bad breath, stain teeth and irritate tissues.
If your dentist rules out the above causes, and you practice good oral hygiene, including thourough tongue-brushing, bad breath may be the result of a local infection in the respiratory tract (nose,throat,windpie,lungs), chronic sinusitis, postnasal drip, chronic brochitis, diabetes, gastrointestinal disturbance, or a liver or kidney ailment. If your mouth is healthy, you may be referred to your family doctor or a specialist to determine the cause of your bad breath.
Tips for controlling bad breath
- Maintain a healthy smile. Schedule regular dental visits. If you are concerned that you have constant bad breath, keep a log of what you eat.
- Make a list of over-the-counter and prescribed medications that you take and bring it to your next checkup. Let your dentist know if you've had any surgery or illness or whatever your medical history has changed since your last visit. And avoid constant use of breath mints and other hard candies containing sugar, which may cause tooth decay.
- Look for oral hygiene products that display the American Dental Association Seal of Acceptance. Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and take time to brush your tongue. Once a day, use floss or another interdental cleaner to clean between teeth. If you wear removable dentures, take them out at night. Clean them thouroughly before replacing them the next morning.
- If you need extra help in controlling plaque, your dentist may recommend using a special antimicrobial mouthrinse. A fluoride mouthrinse, used along with brushing and flossing, can help prevent tooth decay.
- If you're concerned about bad breath, talk to your dentist. He or she can help identify the cause and, if it's due to an oral condition, develop a treatment plan to help eliminate it.
As our daily lives seem busier and fasterpaced than ever, one phrase comes to mind: "The future is now. A child’s oral healthcare habits today will have an impact on his health as an adult."
The good news is that preventive dental care has dramatically improved the oral health of many American children. Nowadays, it’s possible for children to reach adulthood without ever experiencing tooth decay. However, tooth decay remains a serious public health problem: it still is the most common chronic childhood disease that will not resolve without treatment – surpassing asthma by five times. Here are some simple steps you can take to help your child enjoy a lifetime of beautiful smiles.
Importance of a Balanced Diet
A balanced diet is critical for the proper development of an unborn child. Teeth begin to form in the second month of pregnancy and to calcify between the third and sixth months of pregnancy. A balanced diet that provides adequate amounts of vitamins A, C and D, protein, calcium and phosphorous helps develop healthy teeth, while poor nutrition can be associated with early childhood caries (tooth decay).
Keeping Teeth and Gums Healthy
Pregnant women may have the desire to eat more frequently between meals. While this is normal, frequent snacking can be an invitation to tooth decay. The decay process begins with plaque, an invisible, sticky layer of harmful bacteria that constantly forms on teeth. The bacteria convert sugar and starches that remain in the mouth to an acid that attacks tooth enamel. Brushing your teeth twice a day and cleaning between teeth daily with floss or another interdental cleaner can reduce the risk of decay. A mother’s caries-causing bacteria can be transmitted to her child, so it is important to reduce plaque and have teeth free of decay before the birth of a child.
Plaque that is not removed can irritate the gums, making them red, tender, and likely to bleed easily. This condition is called gingivitis and can lead to more serious periodontal disease that affects the gums and bone that anchor teeth in place. During pregnancy, a woman’s hormone levels rise considerably. Gingivitis, especially common during the second to eighth months of pregnancy, may cause red, puffy or tender gums that tend to bleed when brushed. This sensitivity is an exaggerated response to plaque and is caused by an increased level of progesterone. Poor periodontal health in the mother can lead to adverse pregnancy outcomes like premature delivery and low birth weight of the baby. Mothers should see a dentist regularly throughout pregnancy. The dentist may recommend more frequent cleanings during the second trimester or early third trimester to help avoid problems.
THE GROWING YEARS: FROM BIRTH TO SIX
Baby’s First Teeth
People usually think of a newborn baby as having no teeth. But the 20 primary teeth that will erupt in the next three years already are present at birth in the baby’s jawbones. At birth, most of the crowns of the primary teeth are almost complete, and the chewing surfaces of the permanent molars have begun forming.
Primary teeth are important in normal development — for chewing, speaking, and appearance. In addition, the primary teeth hold the space in the jaws for the permanent teeth. Both primary and permanent teeth help give the face its shape and form.
A baby’s front four teeth usually erupt first, typically at about six months of age, although some children don’t have their first tooth until 12 or 14 months. Most children have a full set of 20 primary teeth by the time they are three years old. As your child grows, the jaws also grow, making room for the permanent teeth that will begin to erupt at about age six. At the same time, the roots of the primary teeth begin to be absorbed by the tissues around them, and the permanent teeth under them begin to erupt. Typically, most children have the majority of their permanent teeth by 12 to 14 years of age. The remaining four permanent molars, often called “wisdom teeth,” erupt around age 21 to complete the set of 32 permanent teeth.
When teeth begin erupting, some babies may have sore or tender gums. Gently rubbing your child’s gums with a clean finger or a wet gauze pad can be soothing. You also can give the baby a clean teething ring to chew on, but never dipped in sugar or syrup. If your child is still cranky and uncomfortable, consult your dentist or physician. Contrary to common belief, fever is not normal for a teething baby. If your infant has an unusually high or persistent fever while teething, call your physician.
Cleaning Your Child’s Teeth
Begin cleaning the baby’s mouth during the first few days after birth. After every feeding, wipe the baby’s gums either with a clean, wet gauze pad or with a washcloth or towel. This removes residual food that can harm erupting teeth, and helps the child grow accustomed to having his mouth checked.
When your child’s teeth begin to erupt, brush them gently with a child’s size soft toothbrush and water. Brush the teeth of children over age two with a pea-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste. (Consult with your child’s dentist or physician if you are considering using fluoride toothpaste before age two). To clean your child’s teeth, you can sit with the child’s head in your lap. Be sure you can see into the child’s mouth easily. Check your child’s toothbrush often and replace it when it is worn. Bent or frayed bristles will not remove plaque effectively.
First Dental Visit
As your child’s first tooth erupts, consult with your child’s dentist regarding scheduling your child’s first visit. It is advantageous for the first dental visit to occur within six months after the first tooth erupts, but not later than the first birthday. Treat the first dental visit as you would a well baby checkup with the child’s physician.
During the first visit, the dentist will check: (1) for cavities; (2) to see how well the teeth are being cleaned and offer cleaning suggestions if necessary; (3) to make sure the proper number of teeth have erupted; and (4) to see that the child is receiving the proper amount of fluoride because too much or too little can lead to problems. The dentist also will answer any questions the parents may have. By starting visits at an early age, you will help your child build a lifetime of good dental habits.
Preventing Decay of Primary Teeth
As soon as teeth appear in the mouth, decay can occur. One of the risk factors for early childhood caries (sometimes called baby bottle tooth decay) is frequent and prolonged exposure of a baby’s teeth to liquids containing sugar, including milk, breast milk, formula and fruit juice. Tooth decay can occur when parents or caregivers put a baby to bed with a bottle – or use milk, formula or juice as a pacifier for a fussy baby
If you use a pacifier, use a clean one. Never dip a pacifier in sugar or honey before giving it to a baby. Prolonged use of pacifiers can harm the teeth just like prolonged thumb sucking, but it often is easier to wean a child from a pacifier than a thumb. Encourage children to drink from a cup by their first birthday, and discourage frequent use of a training cup. Never allow a baby to take a bottle to bed at night or naptime.
“Holding Space Open” for Primary Teeth
Sometimes a primary tooth is lost before the permanent tooth beneath it is ready to erupt. If a primary tooth is lost too early, nearby teeth can tip or shift into the vacant space. When the permanent tooth is ready to emerge into the space, there may not be enough room for it. The new tooth may be unable to emerge – or may emerge in an abnormal position. If your child loses a tooth prematurely, the dentist may recommend a space maintainer, a plastic or metal appliance that holds open the space left by the missing tooth. The dentist will remove this device once the permanent tooth begins to erupt.
Sucking is a natural reflex and infants and young children may suck on thumbs, fingers, pacifiers and other objects. It may make them feel safe and happy or provide a sense of security at difficult periods. Since thumbsucking is relaxing, it may induce sleep.
Thumbsucking that persists beyond the eruption of the permanent teeth can cause problems with tooth alignment and the proper growth of the mouth. How intensely a child sucks on fingers or thumbs will determine whether or not dental problems may result. Children who rest their thumbs passively in their mouths are less likely to have difficulty than those who vigorously suck their thumbs.
Children should cease thumbsucking by the time their permanent front teeth are ready to erupt. Usually, children stop between the ages of two and four. Peer pressure causes many school-aged children to stop. If you have concerns about thumbsucking or use of a pacifier, consult your dentist.
Toothbrushing for Children
Brush and floss your child’s teeth until he or she is at least six years old. By age six or seven, children should be able to brush their own teeth twice a day — with supervision until about age 10 or 11, to make sure they are doing a thorough job. However, each child is different. Your dentist can help you determine whether the child has the skill level to brush properly.
Choose a child-size toothbrush for ease of use. The variety of colors and designs can provide extra fun and motivation to keep children brushing. There also are powered or mechanical brushes available for children, so ask your dentist if one is right for your child
Proper brushing removes plaque from the inner, outer and chewing surfaces. When teaching how to brush, you may wish to stand behind the child and hold the brush to be certain that brushing is done properly.
Focus on Fluoride
Fluoride is vital for strong, decay-resistant teeth. Fluoride is one of the most effective agents for preventing tooth decay. It combines with tooth enamel to strengthen it against decay. Fluoride may also reverse microscopic cavities by enhancing the process in which minerals, including calcium, are incorporated into the teeth.
The most effective way for your child to get fluoride’s protection is by drinking water containing the right amount of the mineral, (about one part fluoride per million parts water). This is of special benefit to children, because fluoride strengthens teeth as they form. Children who from birth drink water containing fluoride have up to 50 percent fewer cavities. Many of them remain cavity free through their teens.
Before you give your child any vitamin or supplement that contains fluoride, check with your dentist to see if one is needed. Discuss your child’s fluoride needs with your dentist or pediatrician. Based on your dentist’s assessment of your family’s oral health, the use of additional fluoride-containing products may or may not be recommended.
THE GROWING YEARS: FROM SIX TO 12
As children develop, their jaw and face continue to change. The transition from baby teeth to adult teeth is gradual. By the time they reach adulthood, most children will progress from their 20 primary teeth to 32 permanent (adult) teeth. All the while, the jaw gradually expands to make room for the additional 12 teeth.
At about age six, although it may start earlier, children begin to shed (lose) their front teeth on top and bottom. During the next six or so years, permanent teeth gradually will replace the primary teeth.
The first permanent molars usually erupt between ages five and six. For that reason, they are often called the six-year molars. They are among the “extra” permanent teeth in that they don’t replace an existing baby tooth. These important adult teeth are often mistaken for baby teeth. However, they are permanent and must be cared for properly if they are to last throughout the child’s lifetime. The six-year molars are especially important because they help determine the shape of the lower face. They also affect the position and health of other permanent teeth.
A sealant is a plastic material that is applied to the chewing surfaces of healthy, cavity-free back teeth (premolars and molars), where decay occurs most often. The sealant acts as a barrier, protecting the decay-prone areas of the back teeth from plaque and acid attacks. Pits and fissures are depressions and grooves in the chewing surface of the back teeth.
They are often difficult to keep clean because toothbrush bristles cannot reach into them. The sealant forms a thin covering that keeps out plaque and food and decreases the risk of tooth decay.
Sealing a tooth is fast and there is virtually no discomfort. The dentist conditions the chewing surfaces to help the sealant adhere to the tooth and then applies the sealant to the tooth enamel.
As long as the sealant remains intact, the tooth surface will be protected from decay. Sealants hold up well under the force of normal chewing and usually last several years before a reapplication is needed. Both primary and permanent teeth can benefit from sealants. Ask your dentist if sealants will benefit your child.
Regular dental visits are crucial to maintaining a healthy smile. During the dental visit, the dentist examines the child’s mouth for tooth decay and growth or development conditions that may pose a problem in the future.
How often should a child see a dentist? Children’s needs differ, and your dentist is best able to suggest a schedule of visits for your child. The frequency of dental visits will partly depend on your child’s eating habits; how clean the teeth are kept; past treatment needs; whether your child drinks fluoridated water; and other factors that can affect you child’s susceptibility to dental diseases.
Professional dental services, such as fluoride treatments and the application of sealants that prevent tooth decay, can save money and reduce the need for further dental treatment.
Set a good example for your child by brushing your own teeth twice a day, flossing once, and visiting the dentist regularly.
Malocclusion, or bad bite, is a condition in which the teeth are crowded, crooked or out of alignment, or the jaws don’t meet properly. This condition may become particularly noticeable between the ages of six and 12, when the permanent teeth are erupting. This “bad bite” may be inherited or result from events in the child’s development.
It is recommended that every child receive an orthodontic evaluation by age seven. Early examination and treatment may help prevent or reduce the severity of malocclusions in the permanent teeth. An early evaluation allows the dentist/orthodontist to determine when any recommended treatment should begin. Starting treatment or preventive care at the best time may reduce the overall treatment time and result in the best outcome.
Dentists/orthodontists try to prevent the development of malocclusions, when possible. Some preventive orthodontic treatment may be started when the primary teeth are still in place. Often effective preventive treatment is done during a child’s growth period. Different types of orthodontic appliances, including some that are removable, are used to prevent and treat malocclusions.
Orthodontic treatment may be divided into distinct stages or it may be continuous over a period of many months or more. The starting age, the duration of treatment, the type of appliances used, the outcome of the treatment, and the cost of treatment depends upon the nature and the severity of the malocclusion being treated. In most cases, the cooperation of the patient — practicing good oral hygiene and maintaining scheduled appointments with the dentist — are major factors in the success of orthodontic treatment.
When a child begins to participate in recreational activities and organized sports, injuries can occur. Mouth protectors, also called mouthguards, are an important piece of protective face gear. You’ve probably seen mouth protectors used in contact sports, such as hockey, football or boxing. Coaches and team members know that mouth protectors cushion blows that would otherwise cause broken teeth, injuries to the lips and face and sometimes even jaw fractures. Ask your dentist about custom fitted and storebought mouth protectors.
Social attitudes and acceptance of smoking have greatly changed in the past decade but in spite of all the negative publicity, some youth are still drawn to cigarettes and chewing tobacco. Tobacco in any form can jeopardize your child’s health and cause incurable damage. Teach your child about the dangers of tobacco. Smokeless tobacco, also called spit tobacco, chew or snuff, often is used by teens who believe that it is a safe alternative to smoking cigarettes. This is an unfortunate misconception. Studies show that spit tobacco may be even more addictive than smoking cigarettes and may be more difficult to quit. Teens who use it may be interested to know that one can of snuff per day delivers as much nicotine as 60 cigarettes. As little as three to four months of smokeless tobacco use can cause gum disease and produce pre-cancerous lesions called leukoplakias. Abrasive ingredients and sugars in smokeless tobacco also lead to greater tooth abrasion and decay. Users should watch for unusual lesions that might appear on the lip, inside cheek or on the gums. Better yet, don’t let a dangerous habit start.
Periodontal (gum) diseases are caused by bacterial infections that attack the gums, tissue and bone. When plaque is not removed it can harden into a rough, porous deposit called calculus, or tartar. It can only be removed when teeth are cleaned in the dental office. Tartar that forms below (under) the gumline makes it more difficult to remove plaque film and may interfere with the attachment of the teeth to the gums. This can create conditions that lead to chronic inflammation and infection.
An early sign of periodontal disease is gums that bleed easily, especially when teeth are brushed. If not treated at an early stage, serious problems can result. Eventually, bony support can be lost and teeth may become loose, fall out or require extraction.
Periodontal diseases can occur at any age. Several forms of periodontal disease can affect even teenagers. Adolescents may need reminders about practicing good oral hygiene. It’s important that both children and adults have regular dental checkups.
Restore your smile
A crown is a special dental restoration that entirely covers or "caps" a tooth. Besides strengthening a damaged tooth, a crown can be used to improve its appearance.
Your dentist may recommended a crown to :
- replace a large filling when there isn't enough tooth remaining;
- protect a weak tooth from fracturing;
- restore a fractured tooth;
- attach bridge;
- cover a dental implant;
- cover a poorly shaped tooth;
- cover a discolored tooth; or
- cover a tooth that has had root canal treatment
Which material is best?
Several factors are considered when choosing among the various materials used to make crowns. Your dentist considers the location of the tooth, the color and shade, the amount of tooth that shows when you smile, the function of the tooth (tearing versus grinding), and the position of surrounding gum tissue.
Gold or non-precious alloys, porcelain or ceramic, acrylic or composite resin or combinations of these materials are used to make crowns. Porcelain attached to a durable metal shell is commonly used for its strength. In some cases, an additional visit may be needed for adjustments.
During the firts visit, the dentist shapes the outer portion of the tooth to accommodate the thickness of the prepared tooth. Your dentist or a dental laboratory technician (following the written instructions of the dentist) then makes the crown from the model.
A temporary crown, often made of acrylic resin, covers the prepared tooth while the permanent crown is made. When the permanent crown is ready, the dentist removes the temporary crown and places the permanent one over the the prepared tooth. Minor adjustments may be made to make the crowned tooth and your "bite" feel comfortable.
Taking care of your smile
To prevent damaging your new crown (or your natural teeth), avoid chewing hard foods, ice or other objects.
Look for oral hygiene products that display the American Dental Association's (ADA) Seal of Acceptance, a symbol of safety and effectiveness. Brush twice a day with an ADA-accepted toothpaste, this helps remove plaque, a sticky film of bacteria that can made tooth decay.
Take time to carefully remove th plaque from the area where gum tissue meets the tooth (the sulcuss). Plaque that accumulates in the sulcus can cause tooth decay or gum disease.
The Goal: Preserving The Tooth
In the past, injured or diseased teeth frequently had to be removed. Today, they often can be saved through endodontic treatment. Also known as a root canal treatment, this procedure may be performed by a general dentist or a specialist called an endodontist. More than one office visit usually is required.
A root canal treatment generally involves the removal and replacement of a tooth’s pulp. The pulp is soft tissue containing blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue.
- The pulp is found in a canal that runs through the center of the hard tissue on the inside of the tooth (the dentin).
- The pulp extends from the pulp chamber in the crown down through the root canal to the tip of the root in the jawbone.
- A tooth has only one pulp chamber but may have more than one root and several root canals.
What to expect
Here is what you can expect when you schedule a root canal treatment.
On the initial visit:
- Local anesthetic usually is given, to maintain patient comfort.
- The affected tooth is isolated from saliva with a rubberlike sheet called a dam.
- An opening is made through the crown of the tooth. The pulp is removed, and then the root is cleaned and shaped. Medication may be added to the pulp chamber and root canal(s) to help eliminate bacteria.
- A temporary filling is placed in the crown opening to keep saliva out. Antibiotics may be prescribed if an infection is present and has spread beyond the end of the root(s).
- The temporary filling is removed.
- The root canal is filled and permanently sealed. (A metal or plastic rod or post may be placed in the root canal for structural support.)
The rest is up to you
The restored tooth can remain healthy as long as its roots are nourished by the surrounding tissues. Good oral hygiene at home and regular dental visits can help prevent tooth decay and gum disease. If you take good care of it, the restored tooth could last a lifetime.
What causes sensitivity?
If your dentist has ruled out other dental problems that are causing discomfort, such as a cavity, a fractured tooth or an abscess, the sensitivity may be result of worn tooth enamel or an exposed tooth root.
A layer of enamel, the strongest substance in the body, protects the crowns of healthy teeth. A layer called cementum protects the tooth root under the gum line. Underneath the enamel and the cementum is dentin.
The dentin contains microscopic tubules (small hollow tubes or canals). When the dentin loses its protective covering, th tubules allow heat and cold or acidic or sticky foods to stimulate the nerves and cells inside the tooth. This causes hypersensitivity and monetary discomfort. The irritation does not cause permanent damage to the pulp.
Sensitive teeth can be treated. Your dentist may suggest that you try a desensitizing toothpaste. A desensitizing toothpaste contains compounds that help block transmission of sensation from the tooth surface to the nerve. Desensitizing toothpaste may require several applications before the sensitivity is reduced. When choosing any dental care products, look for those that display the American Dental Association's Seal of Acceptance, your assurance that have met ADA standards of safety and effectiveness.
If the desensitizing toothpaste does not help your discomfort, your dentist may suggest in-office techniques to correct the problem. A fluoride gel mat be applied to the sensitive areas of the teeth. Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel and reduces the transmission of sensations.
If receding gums cause the sensitivity, your dentist may use dentin bonding agents, which bond to the tooth root and protect the tooth. Your dentitst may also suggest "sealing" the sensitive teeth. A sealer composed of a plastic material may be used to reduce sensitivity.
In some causes where hypersensitivity is severe and persistent and cannot be treated by other means, your dentist may recommend endodontic treatment to eliminate the problem.
It's easy to take some things for granted until they're suddenly gone. Imagine what it would be like if you lost one or two of your front teeth. Smiling, talking or eating the'd all be pretty unpleasant.
A properly fitted mouthguard, mouth protector, is an important piece of athletic gear that can help protect your smile. You may have seen mouthguards used in contact sports, particularly in football, boxing, ice hockey, lacrosse and field hockey. Mouthguards help cushion blows that might otherwise cause broken teeth and injuries to the lips, tongue, face or jaw. It's believed that they also may educe the severity and incidence of concussions.
You don't have to be on the football field or in a hockey rink to benefit from a properly fitted maouthguard. New findings in sports dentistry gymnastics, mouthguards will help protect participants. Many experts recommend that everyone -from children to adults- wear a mouthguard during any recreational activity that might pose a risk of injury to the mouth.
Choosing a mouthguard
There are three types of mouthguards :
- the ready-made, or stock, mouthguard;
- the mouth-formed "boil-and-bite" mouthguard;
- the custom-made mouthguard made by your dentist
Generally, a mouthguard covers only the upper teeth, but in some cases the dentist will make a mouthguard for the lower teeth as well. Your dentist can suggest the right mouthguard for you.
Caring for your mouthguard
- before and after each use, rince it with cold water or with a mouthrince. You can clean itu with toothpaste and a toothbrush.
- Occasionally clean the mouthguard in cool, soapy water and rinse it thoroughly.
- Place the mouthguard in a firm, perforated container to store or transport it. This permits air circulation and helps to prevent damage.
- To minimize distortion, avoid high temperatures, such as hot water, hot surfaces or direct sunlight.
Schedule regular dental check-ups and bring your mouthguard to each deantal visit.
Tooth decay often occurs on the chewing surfaces of back teeth. The good news is that sealants can offer major protection againts cavities.
What causes tooth decay?
Your teeth are covered with a sticky film of bacteria, called plaque. Plaque bacteria use sugar and starch into harmful acids that attack tooth enamel for as long as 20 minutes or more. Repeated attacks may cause the enamel to break down, resulting in cavities.
What is a sealant?
A sealant is a plastic material that is usually applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth premolars and molars. This plastic resin bonds into the depressions and groove (pits and fissures) of the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. The sealant acts as a barrier, protecting enamel from plaque and acids.
Why are sealants necessary?
When the back teeth are developing, pits and fissures from in the chewing surfaces of the enamel. They are impossible to keep clean, because the bristles of a toothbrush cannot reach into them. Pits and fissures are snug places for plaque and bits of food to hide! In fact, most cavities form in pit and fissures areas, and back teeth are extremely susceptible to this form of decay. By forming a thin covering over the pits and fissures, sealants keep out plaque an dfood, thus decreasing the risk of decay.
How are sealants applied?
It usually takes only a few minutes to seal each tooth. The teeth that will be sealed are cleaned. Then the chewing surfaces are conditioned to help the sealant adhere to the tooth. The sealant is then 'painted' onto the tooth enamel, where it bonds directly to the tooth and hardens. Sometimes a special curing light is used to help the sealant harden.
How long do sealant last?
As long as the sealant remains intact, the tooth surface will be protected from decay. When shopping for toothpaste and cleaning between the teeth daily with floss or interdental cleaners. When shopping fot toothbrushes, toothpaste and other oral care products, choose those that bear the ADA Seal of Acceptance-a sign that dental product has met ADA standarts for safety and effetiveness. It's also important to eat a ballanced diet and limit snacks. Visit your dentist regularly, and ask your dentist how to get the fluoride you need. Prevention is better than treatment. Since they are extremely effective in preventing pit and fissure decay, properly applied and maintained sealants can result in savings in both dollars and discomfort.
Are sealants just for kids?
The likelihood of developing pit and fissure decay begins as soon as the back teeth erupt, so children and teenagers are obvious candidates. But adults can also be at risk for this type of decay and can benefit from sealants as well. Ask your dentist about whether sealants can put extra power behind your prevention program. | <urn:uuid:83693c41-6d53-41c5-a055-03e597781bba> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | http://allcaredentalcentre.com/articles.html | 2022-01-24T11:38:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.938243 | 8,049 |

14 Jan Word Art Wednesday #136: The World is a Book
Reading just a few pages of a book won’t tell you the whole story. St Augutine’s quote, pictured below, describes how the world is like a book. Without travelling it, you’ll end up with a limited view of the world. Don’t be afraid to travel – it can be an amazing, life-changing experience. What travel plans do you have for 2015?
Word Art Wednesday is a series on my blog providing weekly inspiration, happiness and encouragement. Most of the word art seen here is available as prints through my Etsy Shop. My work is also featured at lifestyle blog This Busy Life. | <urn:uuid:c83e3fe6-042a-4644-9574-c55a083c35aa> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | http://helloharmonystudio.ca/2015/01/14/word-art-wednesday-136-the-world-is-a-book/ | 2022-01-24T11:07:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.935963 | 147 |
WEEK 5: SUPERVISOR SESSION
Mainly read in the 21 Lessons for the 21st century to find new topics.
And a little for SPEAKING CRITICALLY.
The drawings are more interesting than the photographs.
Shadowing might be a topic to explore. The pictures now are all too safe. Add more humor/irony/disruption.
Charlotte Cotton »Photography is Magic« shows how others push boundaries in photography (rather experimental).
In the meantime I have the book and have to say that almost none of the images really speak to me. Most of them are screaming loud, very colorful and of an aesthetic that I don't find appealing. But the book has been very valuable as for the artists' statements. Some of those resonated a lot with my work or my general approach on photography.
The project is not going the way it’s supposed to, reading and taking constructed pictures takes far too long and the result is mediocre. Therefore my assignment: Just taking pictures that I don't have to show, that are unrelated to the project, just anything.
My first attempt is intentionally bad food photography: | <urn:uuid:1654d964-265d-49c3-85cb-11eb47af3e19> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | http://lilyalssen.com/2020/08/week-5-supervisor-session/ | 2022-01-24T11:48:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.957459 | 245 |

2022.01.24 08:19 throwrandomqueastion Are we gays too “soft” for being offended by homophobic slurs in gaming?
A week or so ago I started playing WoW with two friends of mine for the first time and have been having a great experience so far! We talk through discord and basically all communication happens there. One of them is already experienced in the game mechanics and everything, the other and I are slowly learning.
Basically yesterday night we were running a dungeons with some strangers and some of them were clearly playing wrong by endangering the team, and my friend suddenly said they played “like faggots”. I was shocked and stopped for a bit, and told him if there was something wrong with being that and he immediately apologised to me (I’m out with both of them) saying he didn’t think before speaking.
Then 1 hour later someone challenged him in a 1vs1 duel, he beat them and said something along the lines “that’s why you sucks cocks” or similar, to which I sarcastically responded that it’s actually an enjoyable activity. He laughed and told me not to be so politically correct and I ignored it afterwards.
Now, I must admit that I am shocked by these interactions because in real life we are best buddies. He is the most supportive friend and never uses such terms, whereas in the gaming world he acts like a different person when it comes to swear words.
Am I being too sensitive? Are these words so imbued into the gaming world by straight gamers that they are not to be taken for their actual meaning ?

2022.01.24 08:19 eddieoctane The 5G risk to aviation is made up to control you
TL;DR version: 5G towers are not a threat to aviation, and airlines are lying to you because corporations want control.
Cell communications do not interfere with avionics. The recent uproar over the 5G towers near airports is not based on any actual concern for safety, but as a method of exerting unnecessary control over people. Tough understand how this sounds, this isn't some tinfoil hat conspiracy. Allow me to explain.
They continually make the same comments about general cellphone usage. This simply isn't true. First, we need some numbers. Cell towers have an effective range of about 500yds and a power consumption of about 1-1.5kw. the FAA also generally requires roads to be at least 1000 feet away from the end of a runway.
Signal strength drops off with the inverse-square law. That means that the signal degrades very rapidly. Beyond the effective range of a transmitter, you may not even be same to detect it. With a 5G Tower, you hit about 3% of the transmitted power at the distance between the end of the runway and the transmitter.
So you have a cell tower that can pump RF out to 500 yds. But at that range, you have a few (as in single digit wattage) of RF getting to a plane.
But it gets better. General aviation, something like a little Cessna 172 or Piper Cub, generally operate between 500-1000ft. This means that small aircraft regularly fly in the "danger zone" of 5G. This happens with systems less hardened to RF radiation than larger aircraft. However, they experience no ill effects. Yet you are supposed to be worried about what'll happen to an objectively better-engineered aircraft that was designed to survive direct lightning strikes.
Now, RF emissions can screw with aircraft. On an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, the AN/SPY-1D has a power consumption of about 6MW. So 3-4,000 times the amount of energy in a 5G tower. And when the Navy conducts flight operations on such a ship, they need to create a cutout in the radar for a helicopter to approach. But this is usually done at a distance of a few thousand years. So again, 5G could be a problem, but only if it was at several hundred or thousand times the power of the current antennas.
So why create all this commotion? Why tell us to put phones in airplane mode to begin with? Well, a fast moving cell phone can cause a lot of network congestion. You can move between multiple cell towers quicker than the cell towers can refresh and drop off your moving cell phone. With several airplanes with several hundred people each, this can basically create a cell phone blackout around an airport. Each person is simply tying up space on multiple towers simultaneously, and the system just bogs down. The FCC, not the FAA, is the interested party in this case. They are the ones who pushed for airplane mode functionality on phones.
As for the airlines themselves, there must be some financial motive or underlying psychopathy from the CEOs that's driving this. 5G functionality near airports substantially undercuts the ability to sell Wi-Fi inside the airport, which many airports and airlines use for income. It wouldn't surprise me that the lost money from airport Wi-Fi subscriptions is financial cause enough to try to make cell phones unusable near an airport. Or maybe it's simply the fact that one in five CEOs are complete psychopaths, with no redeeming human characteristics. Maybe they just like the fact that they can take away your ability to call for help.
Regardless of the reason given, the concerns over cell phone use and air travel are fake. The planes avionics are more than capable of handling whatever RF transmission or EM spectrum radiation that a cell tower, cell phone, laptop, or even a lightning bolt puts out. But here we are, having corporations deciding what we can and can't have, and nobody bats an eye. Nobody wants to be well informed enough to tell a corporation to fuck off for the benefit of the people. I guess that's what they call late stage capitalism.

2022.01.24 08:19 ShiroVM Best ADCs champions to play in solo queue?
I was making some research and found this cool video best solo queue adcs (not my video), where they go through the best ADCs to play in solo queue in a kinda ignoring what is meta fashion and considering things more in a vacuum, and I though it was really informative and I was looking for more feedback from players about what are the best solo queue adcs in their opinion. I know players like XFSN saber make tier list ever so often as well, but normally theirs is very meta based and tend to be more volatile to patch changes not looking to age so well overall.
At the moment I'm just playing different ADCs and see what it works and doest work for me while making some research in between. The plan is like making a rooster of like 5 by a mix of fun and "solid solo quehe champion" research.
I have found some success so far on champions Caitlyn, kai'sa, ezreal, jinx, while not found much success on other meta champions like vayne, I just think her Laning phase is too weak, and while she scales well I actually don't feel that the gap between a 6 item vayne and a 6 item Caitlyn for example is that big, so I'm not sure if picking a full scaling game plan adc is the way to go in solo queue, she can carry super hard and I hard carried some games on her myself but I just don't think she can get to that point reliably. I think jinx fits better the scaling plan as in lane I can turn on the rockets push the wave under the tower, go to ward and repeat the process and sit there like "what are you going to do about that?".
I found some mild success on Ashe, xayah and jhin, jhin is more my fault as I have to put more games into him and I tend to get impacient and do bad trades on him, so I need more practice, I have been very impressive with other jhin players before. Xayah I feel she is hit or miss, if the enemy has a lot of mobile champions and they keep an eye on the feathers they can just reposition themselves to a point that the only hope to hit a E root is by investing flash and overall I feel like is hard to force things on xayah. Ashe a lot of the times kinda feels like a seating duck tbh.
I didn't played much of other ADCs yet, but I want to invest some games on tristana as she seems to be very highly praised.

BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) is a new language representation model. BERT is designed to pre-train deep bidirectional representations from unlabeled text by jointly conditioning on both left and right context in all layers. BERT is conceptually simple and empirically powerful. It obtains new state-of-the-art results on eleven natural language processing tasks, including pushing the GLUE score to 80.5%.
Table of contents
- What makes BERT different?
- RankBrain is not dead. How so?
- Can you optimize for BERT?
- Why we should care?
In the field of computer vision, researchers have repeatedly shown the value of transfer learning — pre-training a neural network model on a known task, for instance ImageNet, and then performing fine-tuning — using the trained neural network as the basis of a new purpose-specific model. In recent years, researchers have been showing that a similar technique can be useful in many natural language tasks.
A different approach, which is also popular in NLP tasks and exemplified in the recent ELMo paper, is feature-based training. In this approach, a pre-trained neural network produces word embedding which are then used as features in NLP models.
It was opened-sourced last year and written about in more detail on the Google AI blog. In short, BERT can help computers understand language a bit more like humans do.
What Makes BERT Different?
BERT builds upon recent work in pre-training contextual representations — including Semi-supervised Sequence Learning, Generative Pre-Training, ELMo, and ULMFit. However, unlike these previous models, BERT is the first deeply bidirectional, unsupervised language representation, pre-trained using only a plain text corpus (in this case, Wikipedia). Why does this matter? Pre-trained representations can either be context-free or contextual, and contextual representations can further be unidirectional or bidirectional. Context-free models such as word2vec or GloVe generate a single word embedding representation for each word in the vocabulary. For example, the word “bank” would have the same context-free representation in “bank account” and “bank of the river.” Contextual models instead generate a representation of each word that is based on the other words in the sentence. For example, in the sentence “I accessed the bank account,” a unidirectional contextual model would represent “bank” based on “I accessed the” but not “account.” However, BERT represents “bank” using both its previous and next context — “I accessed the … account” — starting from the very bottom of a deep neural network, making it deeply bidirectional. A visualization of BERT’s neural network architecture compared to previous state-of-the-art contextual pre-training methods is shown below. The arrows indicate the information flow from one layer to the next. The green boxes at the top indicate the final contextualized representation of each input word:
|BERT is deeply bidirectional, OpenAI GPT is unidirectional, and ELMo is shallowly bidirectional.|
RankBrain is not dead.
RankBrain was Google’s first artificial intelligence method for understanding queries in 2015. It looks at both queries and the content of web pages in Google’s index to better understand what the meanings of the words are. BERT does not replace RankBrain, it is an additional method for understanding content and queries. It’s additive to Google’s ranking system. RankBrain can and will still be used for some queries. But when Google thinks a query can be better understood with the help of BERT, Google will use that. In fact, a single query can use multiple methods, including BERT, for understanding query.
Google explained that there are a lot of ways that it can understand what the language in your query means and how it relates to content on the web. For example, if you misspell something, Google’s spelling systems can help find the right word to get you what you need. And/or if you use a word that’s a synonym for the actual word that it’s in relevant documents, Google can match those. BERT is another signal Google uses to understands language. Depending on what you search for, any one or combination of these signals could be more used to understand your query and provide a relevant result.
Can you optimize for BERT?
It is unlikely. Google has told us SEOs can’t really optimize for RankBrain. But it does mean Google is getting better at understanding natural language. Just write content for users, like you always do. This is Google’s efforts at better understand the searcher’s query and matching it better to more relevant results.
Why we should care?
We should, not only because Google said this change is “representing the biggest leap forward in the past five years, and one of the biggest leaps forward in the history of Search.”
But also because 10% of all queries have been impacted by this update. That is a big change. We did see unconfirmed reports of algorithm updates mid-week and earlier this week, which may be related to this change.
We’d recommend you check to see your search traffic changes sometime next week and see how much your site was impacted by this change. If it was, drill deeper into which landing pages were impacted and for which queries. You may notice that those pages didn’t convert and the search traffic Google sent those pages didn’t end up actually being useful.
We will be watching this closely and you can expect more content from us on BERT in the future. | <urn:uuid:0b5435f8-349e-4b84-9fbf-7bfdddb5bff2> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://amazingworkz.com/blog/what-everybody-ought-to-know-about-bert/ | 2022-01-24T11:19:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.928946 | 1,234 |

Samsung Electronics issued guidance today for its upcoming Q3 2014 earnings, and it isn't pretty.
The company says it expects an operating profit of 4.1 trillion won ($3.8 billion) for the quarter, a 60 percent drop over the same quarter last year, when it made 10.2 trillion won. Overall sales are down, too. Samsung expects to sell 47 trillion won ($44 billion) worth of product, which is down 20 percent from the 59.10 trillion won it brought in the door this time last year.
Of course, last year Samsung was regularly turning in record quarters, and that couldn't last forever. While Samsung Electronics makes everything from TVs to refrigerators, the "Mobile and IT" division (read: smartphones) has become over 50 percent of the company's sales. Samsung was the first Android OEM with large enough sales, distribution, and branding to become a rival to Apple, and it rode that combination to record profits.The market is getting a lot more competitive, too. On the high-end, the company isn't the only one selling large-screened phones anymore. Every other Android OEM has jumped in on the big screen craze, and even Apple capitulated and released a phablet version of the iPhone. On the low end, Samsung has to deal with a ton of Chinese companies eager to get a foot in the smartphone market, and those companies aren't necessarily concerned with making money right now. Xiaomi is a great example.
The company is about to release the Note 4, which looks, feels, and functions very similarly to the Note 3. It's leading the charge in wearables, releasing a whopping six smartwatches in less than a year, but Motorola came along and outclassed the whole line with a single product: the Moto 360.
Samsung is still probably one of the top two brands non-tech savvy customers are recommended in their local electronics stores, but lately it seems like the company isn't offering anything unique in the mobile space. | <urn:uuid:c4913bb3-c114-4b93-aa60-aaa289cfb604> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2014/10/samsung-expects-a-60-drop-in-profits-this-quarter/ | 2022-01-24T11:48:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.966271 | 408 |

New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick insisted Tuesday he had no involvement with a Pats employee filming during Sunday's game between the Cincinnati Bengals and Cleveland Browns in Cleveland.
According to Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic, Belichick said, "It's not a football issue in any way shape or form. I have nothing to do with that whatsoever."
The Patriots released a statement on the matter Monday:
In the statement, the Pats said the Browns granted them permission to film as part of a web series called "Do Your Job." That particular episode was focused on the Patriots' scouting department and a pro personnel scout who was on hand to watch the Bengals since they are the Pats' Week 15 opponent.
The Patriots added that they did not inform the Bengals or the NFL that they would be filming during the game, calling it an "unintended oversight."
New England is no stranger to videotaping scandals, as the Patriots received a significant punishment for filming the New York Jets' play calls during a 2007 game.
The scandal was dubbed Spygate and resulted in the Pats being forced to forfeit their 2008 first-round draft pick. The organization was fined $250,000 and Belichick was fined $500,000 for his role in the violation, per ESPN.
Belichick was asked what he learned from Spygate on Tuesday, and he noted that the Patriots "always try to do things the right way," per WCPO's Laurel Pfahler. He added, via Bengals.com's Geoff Hobson:
"Look, we're competitive. We try to be competitive in every area. But we don’t knowingly intentionally want to do anything that crosses the line. But since that happened I’d say we tried to keep a good distance behind the line and not maybe take it as far as we might have in the past. But it’s never really fundamentally changed."
According to Jay Morrison of The Athletic, Belichick also said Tuesday that he has a "good relationship" with the Bengals and owner Mike Brown.
When asked whether he would offer the Bengals an apology or explanation for what happened Sunday, Belichick told Dehner he would "keep that between him and the Bengals."
Sunday's game against Cincinnati is a big one for New England since it is on a two-game losing streak and has fallen to second place overall in the AFC behind the Baltimore Ravens. The Pats also lead the Kansas City Chiefs by just one game for the No. 2 seed, and the Chiefs hold the tiebreaker after beating New England last week.
Additionally, the Pats hold a one-game lead over the Buffalo Bills in the AFC East, and they host the Bills in Week 16.
New England has won the AFC East in each of the past 10 seasons, and it has not had to play in the wild-card round of the playoffs since the 2009 season.
Even amid their recent struggles, the Patriots are 10-3 this season, and they will be heavy favorites when they face the 1-12 Bengals on the road Sunday. | <urn:uuid:c4eaf99f-87d6-4139-b6a2-ae561511e4c5> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2866294-bill-belichick-on-taping-bengals-i-have-nothing-to-do-with-that-whatsoever | 2022-01-24T10:38:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.979465 | 620 |
Where were you on 28th February 2021, just before 10pm? If you were in parts of Wales, or the west of England, you may have seen a bright flash streaking in the sky. This was a fireball – a bright kind of meteorite which is a special sight in its own right. But this was a very special fireball, as the object that created it landed on the ground and has been found, collected and is under analysis right now. To add to the magic, it’s also an incredibly special kind of meteorite, and includes some incredibly old material.
To learn about the process of finding, collecting and studying these rare finds, as well as what they can tell us about the origins of the Earth, we hear from Dr Martin Suttle and Dr Helena Bates from the Natural History Museum. | <urn:uuid:d80c45b7-7a3b-42b5-8ad0-4512fe1a0f82> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://blogs.cardiff.ac.uk/physicsoutreach/pythagorean-astronomy-catching-a-shooting-star/?shared=email&msg=fail | 2022-01-24T10:25:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.986549 | 167 |
The Moral Authority of Nature
For thousands of years, people have used nature to justify their political, moral, and social judgments. Such appeals to the moral authority of nature are still very much with us today, as heated debates over genetically modified organisms and human cloning testify.
The Moral Authority of Nature offers a wide-ranging account of how people have used nature to think about what counts as good, beautiful, just, or valuable. The eighteen essays cover a diverse array of topics, including the connection of cosmic and human orders in ancient Greece, medieval notions of sexual disorder, early modern contexts for categorizing individuals and judging acts as "against nature," race and the origin of humans, ecological economics, and radical feminism. The essays also range widely in time and place, from archaic Greece to early twentieth-century China, medieval Europe to contemporary America.
Scholars from a wide variety of fields will welcome The Moral Authority of Nature, which provides the first sustained historical survey of its topic.

Strana 46 - Thereafter, would that I were not among the men of the fifth generation, but either had died before or been born afterwards. For now truly is a race of iron, and men never rest from labour and sorrow by day, and from perishing by night; and the gods shall lay sore trouble upon them.

Strana 182 - ... land that is left wholly to Nature, that hath no improvement of pasturage, tillage, or planting, is called, as indeed it is, waste; and we shall find the benefit of it amount to little more than nothing.
Strana 331 - It was part of women's long revolution. When we were breaking all the old hierarchies. Finally there was that one thing we had to give up too, the only power we ever had, in return for no more power for anyone. The original production: the power to give birth. Cause as long as we were biologically enchained, we'd never be equal. And males never would be humanized to be loving and tender. So we all became mothers. Every child has three. To break the nuclear bonding.

It is high time that cyber-security is seen as adding value to the overall business and not as a cost
80 per cent of Indian organisations confessed that they are struggling to provide adequate education to their leaders and employees regarding cyber-security as cyber security attacks are increasing in frequency and severity.
In collaboration with Tech research Asia (TRA), IT security company Sophos announced the findings of the second edition of its survey report – ‘The Future of Cyber-security in the Asia pacific and Japan’. Despite cyber-attacks are increasing, cyber-security budgets have remained stagnant and executive teams continue to underestimate the level of damage threats can do to organisations, revealed the study.
The findings found that at the time of the most significant attack Indian organisations suffered in the past year, 56 per cent of the Indian organisations weren’t running up-to-date cyber-security protection.
In India, the survey identified that executives assume that their organisation will never get attacked, which is the top cyber-security frustration of IT leaders. This was followed by the assumption that there is nothing they can do to stop it, even though their organisation may be compromised.
Sunil Sharma, MD – sales, Sophos India and SAARC, said, “At a time when data breaches and sophisticated cyber-attacks like ransom-ware are growing at an alarming rate, cyber-security preparedness is paramount. While businesses are waking up to take note of such attacks and working to secure their organisations, it is vital for them to educate their leaders and employees about the seriousness of cyber-attacks”.
“It is high time that cyber-security is seen as adding value to the overall business and not as a cost. Business leaders should understand that their stakeholders, including customers, will trust them more if they know they are dealing with an organisation that follows best cyber security practices and that their data is safe. Organisations need to be more vigilant, educating their employees and leaders about cyber hygiene along with having the right cyber security tools, people and processes in place to minimise the impact,” Sharma added.
Sophos commissioned TRA to undertake this research into the Asia Pacific and Japan cyber-security landscape. This includes a major quantitative survey where a total of 900 responses were captured across Australia, India, Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines and Singapore. In addition to this, TRA captured qualitative insights from virtual roundtable events in Australia, India, Japan and Singapore (with ASEAN representation). | <urn:uuid:23fe8c05-a6a6-4585-bfc1-121a3cb06709> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://cionews.co.in/cyber-security-attacks-increasing-organisations-struggle-to-educate-leaders-and-employees/ | 2022-01-24T10:43:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.959013 | 507 |
By Earl P. Holt III
Although credit is often wrongly attributed to Shakespeare, it was the 17th Century literary critic Thomas Rymer who coined the term “poetic justice.” Poetic justice occurs when some particularly vile or menacing individual receives a fitting and appropriate end, and always with irony in abundance.
The following are examples of poetic justice, and many are so perfectly appropriate that they even hint at the possibility of Divine Intervention:
Joshua White: Joshua White was a 23-year-old child of leftist, counter-culture types who grew up in San Francisco. He was an ardent, but naïve liberal, who became a child care worker for ghetto children and had a job as a teacher’s aide for learning-disabled (“nigro”) pupils at Martin Luther King Middle School. In March of 1997, he was gunned-down for no reason by a sub-human, black rat-ape, who approached him with a gun, saying “You want to f*ck with me?”
Joshua White’s parents were stoic to the end. Despite their grief, they did what leftists always do, they blamed society and not the killer. The father stated, “The violence and despair that is growing among young people just reached right into our home and took our son. The guy who killed my son might have grown up with more respect for other people if he’d had decent schools and programs and playgrounds.”
Of course, the truth is far uglier: Had Joshua White’s parents done a proper job of raising him, he might still be alive. A proper raising would have involved repeated warnings about the violent, savage, witless and predatory nature of Africanus Criminalis, the Great American Nigro.
A proper raising would also have included the need to avoid blacks whenever possible, in which case Joshua would have done as most intelligent whites have done, and gotten as far away from these black bastards as geography and income permitted.
Kirsten Brydum: Kirsten was a 25 year-old “social activist” who was on a nationwide tour campaigning for Barack Hussein Obama’s campaign for President. She was gunned down in New Orleans in 2008 by a nigro serial killer named Joseph Brant, who shot her in the head and then robbed her. Brant may also have raped her.
Brydum was in New Orleans with a group called Collective Autonomy, which supposedly assists “underprivileged” or minority communities by indoctrinating them with Marxism and other lies fabricated by losers engaged in their phony ”class struggle.”
She was found dead in the 3000 block of Laussat Place after being shot in the head and robbed of what few possessions she had. Apparently, she was riding an old bicycle through the Ninth Ward after an evening spent socializing with friends before falling prey to Brant.
Her truly clueless mother stated, “I hope this will wake people up to activism and staying involved and speaking for people who can’t.“
The clueless mother appears oblivious to the fact that it was her “activism” that got Kirsten Brydum murdered in the first place. Even more ironic, she was murdered by one of the very objects of her glaringly misplaced sympathies.
Equally fascinating is the fact that earlier in her tour, she had been protesting against the Republican National Convention being held in Minneapolis. There, amongst the Republican enemy, she was demonstrably safer than in the all-black Ninth Ward of New Orleans, even if too stupid and brainwashed to recognize this fact or its irony.
Tyler Wingate: A naïve 24-year-old white male named Tyler Wingate was savagely beaten to death on Detroit’s west side in 2019 following a minor fender-bender. The murder victim was described by friends and family as someone who moved to Detroit because he ”loved diversity,” and wanted to help return the City of Detroit to its former glory.
Surveillance video from a nearby gas station showed the nigro driver of the other vehicle approached Wingate after the incident and dropped him with an unanticipated “sucker-punch.” As black savages will do, the assailant continued to furiously hit and kick Wingate until he no longer resisted. The nigro murderer and his nigro accomplices then left the victim for dead.
Michael Rockefeller: A book called Thy Will Be Done blames Nelson Rockefeller for exploiting the so-called “Third World,” and explains how Rockefeller’s son, Michael, was killed and eaten by Third-Worlder savages when he went off to save them from his father.
In 1961, while Nelson Rockefeller was governor of New York, Michael was in New Guinea sheltering natives from the evils of Western materialism and modernity. During an expedition to collect tribal art, Michael Rockefeller had a boating accident and was forced ashore.
As he emerged from the water, one of the locals speared him in the chest. To quote from the book: “He was still alive when taken up the river, killed with an ax, and in the religious manner of cannibals seeking the strength of their victims, cooked with sago palm and eaten.”
“Timothy Treadwell”: Once upon a time there was a self-anointed “eco-warrior” named Timothy Treadwell. Now Timothy had a very active imagination, and considered himself a “supernatural alien” on “a mission of peace” amongst his friends, the Alaskan brown bears (Ursus Arctos). This he engaged in yearly, from June until October on the Alaskan Peninsula.
Timothy even named some of his favorite friends, christening them with such monikers as “Boobles,” “Chocolate,” and “Freckles.” He claimed to be protecting his friends from poachers and licensed hunters, but this turns out to be untrue, just like the autobiographical info he volunteered to interested parties.
Timothy kept what he considered to be “meticulous” diaries of his excursions into the alders with his new friends, which he later sent to his financial sponsor, a Colorado rancher named Roland Dixon. Timothy would wax lyrical about his “transformation” as “a fully accepted wild animal” and “brother” to Freckles, Boobles and Chocolate. He described how he ran “free amongst them – with absolute love and respect for all the animals.”
In addition to mischaracterizing himself as a guardian of his brown friends — he pitched his tent in a national park where hunting was illegal and poaching was rare — Timothy also lied about his surname, his country of origin, his adult criminal record, and his extensive history of drug and alcohol abuse.
Despite this, Timothy was regularly invited to indoctrinate grade school children in his romanticized view of the relationship between man and carnivorous wild beasts.
In a moment of unusual hubris, Timothy once remarked that he would be honored “to end up in bear scat.” In October of 2003, Timothy got his wish and, moreover, at least two of his friends got a sample of that rare but treasured delicacy, Liberalis Deliciosos.
Of course, as is always the case with any leftist endeavor, those he claimed to be protecting ended up having to be destroyed by Alaska Game Officials after one of Timothy’s friends consumed Timothy and his unfortunate girlfriend.

21 Nov Brain Health – Getting Older – Knowing Our Strengths
Getting Older “Play to Your Strengths –Something that challenges you a bit” Dr. Brenda Milner, Neuroscientist
I was thrilled to read an article, by Sari Harrar, in the October issue AARP Bulletin. Harrar, interviewed Dr. Brenda Milner, pioneer neuroscientist, whose groundbreaking research helped to unlock the mysteries of memory. http://www.aarp.org/bulletin/
Harrar, asked Dr. Milner, “At age 99 what motivates you to keep up your research at the Montreal Neurological Institute?” She answered, “I’m curious. Why is this person doing…What would happen if.” Her responses resonated with me because guiding women courageously to be curious about their strengths helps women to rediscover joy, creativity, and love.
Our strengths are embedded in our DNA, childhood experiences, and education. Discovering natural strengths creates opportunities to plan the life you want to live after retirement.
In my book “Power in Midlife and Beyond – 14 Ways to Create an Authentic Life “ describes ways to discover natural strengths. “Authentic living is consistently being open to the question who am I? Being curious and saying to yourself I am open to discovering more about what I do best. Trusting the universe to send what you need to know about who you are.
Dr. Maxwel Maltz, author – Creative Living Through Psycho-Cybernetics believes ” Discovering the real self-means the difference between freedom and the compulsions of conformity.” Our brain carries a mental blueprint picture of ourselves states Dr. Malz in his new edition The New Pshyco-Cybernetics.
I guide women to be curious about our past experiences and likes. Our close friend’s perspectives can reveal powerful clues about our strengths and weaknesses. “Talk to Close Friends” is a chapter in my book that gives specific steps on how to engage friends in a conversation about your strengths.
Dr. Milner’s closing comment was affirming when she was asked what would you recommend to keep one’s brain healthy? “Find out what your strengths and weaknesses are, and play to your strengths – something that challenges you a bit. YES!!! YES!
Curious about her diet, she is 99. She loves food, and she likes cheese, meat, fish, and vegetables. Everything except sweets. Ok people take note!!.Say no more. | <urn:uuid:099b1e1f-9d33-432e-961f-35568916b67a> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://drbarbaracollins.com/2017/11/brain-health-getting-older-knowing-strengths/ | 2022-01-24T11:48:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.931798 | 546 |
If we have more characters capable of summoning the same creatures (like a Ranger and Greenmage in the same party using Conjure Animal) it can be hard to keep track of which summons belong to what character. This is important information because I would like the option to cast new concentration spells without having to gamble on whose summoned creatures have been killed, risking removing summons I want to keep on the board.
Alternatively, adding the summoner's name to the name of the summon could work to let us manually double check.
"[character first name]'s Conjured Beast"
"Bob's Conjured Beast"

Neither the head office of IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation nor the IHH’s teams in the region have such an information regarding to the truck, in other respect, the regional teams of IHH have confirmed from gendarmerie and government officials on the spot that the given truck has no relevancy with IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation.
Hatay Provincial Gendarmerie Command notified our lawyers that there is no information about IHH regarding to the issue. It is quite in evidence that Radikal Newspaper has mentioned the name of IHH in the news for smearing.
We declare that all the legal actions will be taken against to those relevant individuals and institutions, and disclosure the case so much for that by reserving the right to action.
By remarking increasing smearing, slandering and conspiracy campaigns that the Foundation has been exposed since the December 17 operation, we invite all media institutions and relevant authorized bodies to act not according to the sense of belonging, but honestly in ethical and justifiable manner.

The Meatless Monday campaign just gained America’s protector of natural resources and heritage as one of its latest supporters. The U.S. Department of the Interior is one of Sodexo’s more than 2,000 corporate and government clients, which the food service giant encouraged to adopt its Meatless Monday initiative.
Sodexo announced today that it is all part of the company’s ongoing efforts to boost health and wellness and promote sustainability in the North American communities where it serves as many as 10 million meals a day. The Department of Interior joins several of Sodexo’s well-known clients, such as Toyota and Northern Trust Bank in adopting Meatless Monday.
The non-profit Meatless Monday campaign, which is operated out of New York City, was launched in 2003 with the help of the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and the Center for a Livable Future. The public health campaign was first started simply to reduce America’s saturated fat consumption by 15%, following the recommendations of the Healthy People 2010 report issued by then U.S. Surgeon General David Satcher in 2000.
While reducing potential negative health effects, such as cardiovascular disease, remains a key goal, a few years ago the initiative expanded its focus to environmental impacts of intensive meat production. Those impacts can be quite substantial. Research suggests that it takes 20 times the amount of fossil-fuel energy to produce conventional beef protein than plant-based protein. According to a study out of California, it takes about 2,000 gallons of water to produce one pound of beef. That’s almost ten times more than the 220 gallons water needed to produce a pound of tofu.
A Sodexo spokesperson says the Department of Interior reports that, “the population of customers at DOI is very health and environmentally conscience, so that Meatless Monday is a welcome addition to our program.” In a Sodexo news release, Toyota executive Will Nicklas was quoted as saying, “Meatless Monday has been successful here primarily because Sodexo helps our customers understand that it is not at all about becoming vegetarians or even weight loss, it’s about taking easy steps to guard our health and be good stewards of our environment.” Read More >
The list of Meatless Monday supporters continues to grow across the globe, and surprisingly to some, many of the latest enthusiasts make their living either cooking meat, such as chef Mario Batali or producing it, like rancher Nicolette Hahn Niman. What makes Meatless Monday so successful is its simple and inclusive message which promotes moderation with the goal of improving public health and the health of the planet.
Nicolette and her husband Bill run the BN Ranch in Northern California near the seaside raising beef cattle on pasture and heritage turkeys. Bill knows a thing or two about ranching. He founded the famous Niman Ranch Inc. known for its sustainable and humanely raised meats. Nicolette is a Renaissance woman of sorts—new mom, writer, environmental lawyer, and interestingly, a vegetarian.
I recently was able to catch Nicolette for a few minutes by phone to ask her why she and Bill support Meatless Monday. She made it clear that she didn’t have much time; she was in the midst of a writing project, running the ranch (Bill was traveling) and taking care of her 14-month-old son who I could hear in the background chatting and occasionally clinking the keys of their piano. Knowing that time was short; I got straight to the point:
RL: A lot of people mistakenly believe that the Meatless Monday campaign is promoting the demise of all meat production, while it has always maintained that its message is simply one of moderation and inclusion of omnivores and vegetarians alike. As a rancher yourself, what would you say to any farmer who is threatened by the MM campaign?
NHN: Bill and I are very supportive of the Meatless Monday campaign and here’s why: We think that to really improve the way food is being produced and the way people are eating in this country people should eat less meat but eat better meat. All food from animals—meat, dairy, fish, eggs—should be treated as something special. Anyone who is raising food animals in the traditional healthy way, without relying on industrial methods, drugs and chemicals, is someone who will benefit from people embracing that approach. We think the Meatless Monday campaign is part of a shift in attitudes about meat, towards something that is precious not something that is consumed without thought or in enormous quantities.

This June, I successfully defended my bachelor thesis at Charles University. During the spring semester, I spent countless hours working on my thesis on the topic “Planning for Transportation Problems”. Let me explain in several steps, what the thesis attempts to solve.
Today I had a short talk with the students at my old high school in Slovakia.
Today is the last day of my summer internship at Microsoft. During the last 12 weeks, I met an insane amount of very interesting and intriguing people from all parts of the world.
Planning and verifying tool for all the requirements of your studies
Another few months went by fast and it’s already summer break again. All my exams are finished, all that’s left are the two programs I have to write in order to get the last few credits.
Well, technically, it’s already the spring semester here in the Czech Republic.. but so much stuff happened a few weeks back that I didn’t have time to write about it then.
Whoah, this conference just keeps getting bigger and better. The organizers counted about 1200 people just in the first day. I remember attending about 5-6 years ago, there were about 120 people in total. Also, check out my post from last year’s DevConfCZ.
This weekend I attended the LinuxDays conference at FIT CVUT in Prague. In between studying, I got to see some talks, most of which were quite good. The ones I liked most were:
This week, my internship at Red Hat ended. During the summer, I’ve worked part-time as a Software Engineering Intern at Red Hat’s office in Brno, Czech Republic. Coincidentally, a lot of the people there are avid cyclists and runners - which I am, too!
Yesterday was my last day at Red Hat (for now). It was a wonderful 2.5 months and a brand new experience for me, and I’m quite sad it all ended so soon. New things await me - my second year at Matfyz starts in less than a week.
Last week I’ve passed 50 days of working at Red Hat. So far, it has been a very rich and new experience for me. I’ve met and worked with a diverse, passionate and international group of technical and non-technical people, sharpened both my programming and people skills, and enjoyed it all!
Today is the end of my first year at Matfyz. It was a long year and yet it went by so fast. I met a lot of wonderful people and even made a few friends. We studied a lot, learned a lot and there is still a lot more to be learned. I’m looking forward to next year!
This weekend I got a chance to attend one of the leading open source developer conferences in the Czech Republic: Developer Conference 2015. It is organized by Red Hat every year in February in Brno. This year, the venue changed from FI MUNI to the very nice historical building of FIT VUT. I’ve visited this venue before, last summer, during the GUADEC (Gnome User And DEveloper Conference).
I passed my last exam of the fall semester yesterday. Generally, it was a pretty crazy day and I’m happy it’s over. Today is the premiere of “The Immitation Game” - the new movie about Alan Turing - in the Czech Republic. Coincidentally, professor Jack Copeland, the head of The Turing Archive, has a talk at my university today. I even managed to get tickets to see the movie afterwards.
Just a quick update, I just set up a new domain, oskopek.com, and redirected it to my GitHub-hosted page.
I am just about to finish the first semester of my first year at matfyz. It was a brand new experience for me. Everything seemed almost too hard at the beginning but, gradually, it got better.

Meditation is a process or tool that enables us to experience our most natural state of being. When our thoughts and our ego fade into the background we can experience the truth of what makes us live and breathe; that all encompassing, purely loving energy feeling. When meditating, we can reach a level of self-realization of that purest state of being; the realization and experience of our natural state, and the understanding that the everyday being that we experience is the false one. Meditation is the method that we can use to temporarily achieve this state of true being.
Energy, Meditation, and Our Emotional Health
Without taking the time to mediate on our inner, true selves, our unrestrained thoughts can crush our souls, draining a little more energy from us every day. The noise and chaos of daily living– the arguments, the contentious thoughts—ravage our emotional energy. Our emotional health becomes more impoverished with each negative thought and worries of what other people think of us. It destroys us and eats away at our life force, making us feel weak and vulnerable.
Some humans resist making the effort to evolve their conscious state of being. Have you ever known anyone who has admitted that they are uncomfortable being alone with their thoughts? Anyone who needs to have the television on all the time because they “can’t stand” the quiet? Do you know someone who is always talking, who cannot bear sitting together in silence? For whatever reason, some people prefer to live in a mental state where their mind jumps from thought to thought like a monkey leaping from branch to branch.
Many humans are content to live like this. Sadly, they prefer to experience short-term pleasure in the material world than to look inward for contentment and enlightenment. There are different reasons why some people live like this. They may not be willing to recognize their own inner selves. They may doubt the very existence of their own soul. They may be unable or unwilling to reconcile the existence of an invisible creator with the proof of science they purport to see all around them. Too often, they are simply afraid.
The Cost of Fear
The further we get from our own humanity, the more there is to fear. Being out of touch with ourselves can lead to all sorts of problems in our lives. We may experience anxiety with a sense of impending doom, yet be unable to put our finger on the source. Without meditation, we may never come to know ourselves, making wrong decision after wrong decision. If you know someone like this, or perhaps are that someone yourself, know that there is a path that will lead you out of the darkness of fear, and into the light of understanding.
The State of Being
This state of being originates from our creator, the universal state of mind. We don’t mentally understand this state, nor do we need to. It just is. As the planets revolve around the sun, it just is. It simply is life in its living moment. It is your cells living and your heart beating. Your body and soul crave for you to be in this state. The very essence of your being thrives when you are in the state of meditation.
Meditation and the knowledge that can be learned from meditation isn’t some fringe element of society. Scientists are slowly willing to accept meditation as a viable “therapy.” Currently you may hear tentative admissions such as “meditation has some notable benefits in coping with stress”. Though this is hopeful, statements like these only brush like a feather on the actual healing benefits of meditation.
Meditation is not only an option for some people, or a novel exercise to try. It is extremely important that you meditate. Your emotional health is reliant on it. The person that you are, or that you think you are, is just an actor. We all act, in order to make ourselves look good to other people, who are also acting. The person who you think you are is not you. You can find the real you during meditation.
What you Can Gain Through Meditation
In the process of meditating you will feel relaxation and contentment. There is no longer a need to act. You will feel content because in this state you are comfortable experiencing your real self. All humans naturally share this state of contentment and love and awareness, though our egos and personalities make us look different on the outside. There surely is a great treasure for those who learn to meditate; to summon the determination and perseverance to evolve past their normal human desires and wants. One who is able to discover how to be in a state of awareness and peace naturally will be a source of inspiration.
Achieving Emotional Health and Spiritual Peace Through Meditation
As you make that journey through meditation, you will receive all the tools and fortitude you need to bear the truth of whatever it is you need to know about yourself and the universe. Through meditation, you can shed the cloak of fear under which you may have been hiding your entire life. You can stand naked before the awesomeness of the infinite universe and know that you are being cradled in warmth, unbridled love and complete acceptance.
During your meditative experience, you will be able to transcend the cares of this earthly existence that all mankind shares. And though it is a temporary state, you will carry your newfound strength back with you as you resume your daily tasks. You will begin to have a deeper understanding of yourself, your motivations, your needs and the meaning of your very existence in the universe.
Each human has so much potential and unused energy inside. Man has taken dominion over the entire earth, and yet he still knows so little about himself. The change can begin within you.

But now I understand that they are also lovers, who needs time for themself.

People look at me and see success. Published in multiple media, in multiple genres, with various awards. With an MFA and a Ph.D., too, but there have been many failures along the way.
I have failed so many times I’ve lost count, from beginning, middle, and end.
In the beginning, I couldn’t get anything published. I tried big publications, national publications, regional, and small publications. All submissions boomeranged back. Once in a while, I’d get a handwritten note at the bottom of the mimeographed rejection, saying, I like your voice, or Please submit to us in the future…

OK, the Supreme Court Gill decision would have sunk me into the earth if I weren’t already there, given all the horrors surrounding us nowadays.
And I was so, so crossing all my fingers and toes that Kennedy would determine Gill in favor of the plaintiffs, i.e., against political gerrymandering.
The short of it: all is not lost! Indeed, much may have been found.
So I’m feeling a bit hopeful.

May these Consultation Quotes on many subjects inspire you to never give up and keep working towards your goals. Who knows—success could be just around the corner.
♦ ♦ ♦
Ask someone who knows; two lots of knowledge are better than one. – M. Fethullah Gulen
Consultation is the first requirement for reaching the right decision. Decisions reached without due reflection or proper consultation usually come to nothing. Individuals who depend only on themselves, are disconnected from others and unconcerned with their opinions, even if they happen to be geniuses, are at considerable risk of error, as compared to those who offer and receive opinions. – M. Fethullah Gulen
Consultation is the first condition for obtaining good results. Paying attention to the opinions of friends and well-wishers is an important means of avoiding mistakes. – M. Fethullah Gulen
Tasks undertaken without due preparation and consideration of possible consequences and ramifications, apart from making little progress, discredit upon who undertook them. Whoever begins something on a whim and then follows his or her own ideas about how the task should proceed will end up going down many roundabout or misleading roads. – M. Fethullah Gulen
Wise people know whom to consult and how to get the most benefit from their opinions. It is a pleasure to work with such people. Others, however, are so insensitive, thoughtless, and complacent about their own knowledge or competence that they intimidate others into accepting their opinions. Such people are always unbearable to those who must work with them. – M. Fethullah Gulen
Before initiating a task, consult with the other people involved so that everyone’s responsibilities are clear. Then, if something goes wrong in the future, only the person directly responsible will be blamed. Unless possible consequences of proposed actions are properly discussed in advance with experienced people, regret and remorse will be the outcome. – M. Fethullah Gulen
Opposing the majority is a mistake. This is true if the majority represents the truth, otherwise consent is a mistake. It is alright to oppose an engineer in matters of medicine, just as it is alright not to consult with a doctor on a construction project. – M. Fethullah Gulen
Even if the number of blind people increases, they still cannot determine an item’s color. Two sound eyes destroy their consensus. – M. Fethullah Gulen
There is no ‘I’ in team but there is in win. – Michael Jordan
Creating a better world requires teamwork, partnerships, and collaboration, as we need an entire army of companies to work together to build a better world within the next few decades. This means corporations must embrace the benefits of cooperating with one another. – Simon Mainwaring

Collaboration is working with others to do a task and to achieve shared goals. It is a recursive process where two or more or organizations work together to realize shared goals, (this is more than the intersection of common goals seen in co-operative ventures, but a deep, collective determination to reach an identical objective — for example, an endeavor that is creative in nature—by sharing knowledge, learning and building consensus.

What’s the most important safety equipment for dirt bikes?
I’m starting to think that knee pads are essential, especially after taking several crashes and watching several videos of dirt bike riders tumbling.
Yes, elbow guards and full-face helmets are critical, but motocross knee guards also rank high up there.
Personally, I’d even go as far as to say you shouldn’t get on that thing without your knee guards on- they’re that important.
See, several seasons ago, I had an incident. I wish it were a super elaborate and impressive story, but it’s not.
I was doing 30 on a relatively flat road, and when cornering, I think I over-leaned more than my wheels could handle.
I shifted my weight so much on the sideway that I lost traction on the wheels, and tumbled down. I was jolted away from my bike, ending up falling with my knees first, then chest and head,
The good news is, I had knee guards on, and they did a nice job of absorbing the initial impact.
But unfortunately, I hadn’t secured my left knee guard enough, so it slid, exposing my knee to some nasty rash.
It was a humbling experience, and while the knee pads didn’t save my knee entirely, they cut me some slack on the level of injury.
I don’t want to imagine what would have happened if I didn’t have a knee guard on-possibly a fractured bone, broken knee or a skin graft.
And from that day, I vowed never to play Russian roulette with my knees again, and today, I strongly advice that you always have knee guards as the bare minimum safety gear.
But with so many motocross bike knee guards in the market, choosing the right one for you can be nerve-wracking.
The good news is, I’ve prepared a guide below, outlining some of my favorite options in the market. I’m pretty sure they’ll be quite helpful.

The Best Dirt Bike Knee Guards For The Money
#1 SCOYCO Racing Knee Guards - EDITOR'S CHOICE
SCOYCO Racing motocross knee brace opens up our list of the best motocross knee braces reviews.
It’s a nice purchase, tailored for the ultimate impact protection while offering incredible knee comfort.
I’ve used this motocross knee brace quite a dozen times for enduro racing in the trail, and what I can tell you is this pair does a great job in crashes.
The SCOYCO Braces fit well, too and offer a comfortable experience for the ultimate riding experience.
But how good is this knee brace?
Features and Benefits
Quality & Design
SCOYCO Racing Knee Brace comes at a slashed rate, and to be honest, I had some serious doubts about its quality.
But not for long.
My first impression is that the SCOYCO Racing Knee Brace is better than I thought.
It competes favorably with some of the reputable and high-end knee braces in the market.
SCOYCO’S quality is impressive by all means and has what it takes for proper and long-lasting protection.
While it doesn’t prevent lateral deflection or hyperextension, it’ll at least shield my knee from the blunt impact or at least the crashes before falling apart.
It covers my shin, knees and even extends a bit above the knee.
Plus, it’s thin enough at the bottom to be placed in the boot.
Of course, the ultimate test with any motorcycle knee brace is how well it keeps your knees safe in case of an accident.
The good news is I can vouch for the SCOYCO Racing Knee Brace.
The reason is I’ve wrecked twice riding my motocross bikes, and they did their job for sure.
One was when I got hit by a 4-wheeler, and the other one was a crash on the driveway.
Both were good impacts on the ground, and while the braces did crack, I know it would have hurt my knees more or even broken them if I didn’t have the guards on.
The polypropylene high impact plastic shell used on the exterior of the brace is impact, and crash-proof, resisting shock and impact. It offers your knee cap protection and keeps your anterior cruciate ligament from damage.
On top of that, I love having this brace on because I’ve a habit of touching the muffler with my knees. It keeps me protected from that as well.
SCOYCO Racing Knee Braces are among the most comfortable dirt knee guards I’ve tried.
I’m impressed with their triple mobile design that allows me to move freely, giving me up to 180 degrees of motion. They’re comfortable to wear and walk, which is quite unusual for most bike knee braces.
Secondly, they’re lightweight and don’t add much bulk to my knees. In fact, they’re barely noticeable and ideal for use when adventure riding for extended periods. No fatigue.
While still in comfort, I discovered a metal mesh on the exterior and plush material on the interior.
This combo is nice for wicking the sweat away and doesn’t leave my knees with a funky smell.
Personally, I can’t get enough of this feature because I sweat a lot and love riding with my shorts. The skin-to-skin contact with this pair of braces is comfortable and has a superior bike feel to it. But if you wear them over pants, it’s still comfortable.
Ease of Use/ Adjustability
Donning and using the SCOYCO Racing Knee Brace is fun.
I’m impressed with the adjustable elastic straps with a buckle that helps with easy adjustment for your unique leg size and shape.
Personally, I’ve been using them to ride my Silverado bike, and I’ve not had to adjust the upper and lower cuffs since the first day I put them on.
They don’t slide down the knees as most knee braces do, and I can even use them for walking without any inconvenience.
Overall, the SCOYCO Racing motocross knee brace is a nice product and will go a long way in keeping your knees protected.
I encourage and highly recommend these motocross knee braces, especially if you ride motorcycles, fast e-scooters, dirt bikes, or ATVs.
#2 Leatt Shin Guard Dual Axis - Premium Motocross Knee Brace
For my second motocross knee brace, I was looking for an alternative to the Klim Jeans.
I’ve nothing against jeans; they’re good and warm.
But they’re super expensive and too warm for my liking.
So, I needed an alteration that would offer a nice fit, keep me comfortable, and most importantly, something that feels protective.
After thorough research, I settled for the Leatt Shin Guard Dual Axis Sport. And not just of the numerous positive customer ratings, but I chose it because I could effortlessly strap them on over my bike jeans.
And I’m glad I made the Leatt Shin Guard Dual Axis sport purchase because they are working gear.
They move well, are super-adjustable, and stay where you want them to.
Have I mentioned protection?
I can now ride with more confidence with these.
Features and Benefits
My first impression of the Leatt Shin motocross knee Guard is they’re built to handle the extremes.
They provide maximum protection, shin coverage, and comfort for what they look like.
At first glance, they may seem pretty bulky. In fact, most users shy from these motocross knee braces from their perceived bulkiness.
But that’s far from the truth.
On my first try, I could barely notice their presence.
I’ve also put them to the test, and even after suffering a few falls here and there, they still hold up well.
On top of that, I’ve used them for several seasons, and they show little signs of wear up to now. Save from a few dings here and there and picking up some dye from my trousers.
One of the key features of the Leatt Shin Guard Dual Axis is the dual pivot.
It’s a design that mimics your knee’s natural movement. I couldn’t believe how this anatomically correct knee guard provided a range of motion, blowing the normal motocross knee braces out of the water.
One of the things I love with Leatt Shin Guard Dual Axis’s maximum protection is the larger coverage.
See, unlike the smaller brand pairs, I’m confident that should I fall, the Leatt Shin Guard Dual Axis won’t slide over an impact.
It offers protection in all possible angles, and this is good because I often ride over small sharp rocks, and you’re likely to hit your knees from all directions if you go down.
I didn’t notice any gaps, and I got a lot of protection in that sense.
The guards also seem quite durable and solid to me. The High-Density Polyethylene HDPE used here doesn’t seem like it would buckle in case of a crash, even those directly onto rocks.
Along with the great protection, I’m also impressed by the secure fit. This is necessary for avoiding knee twists or further knee injuries.
Overall, the Leatt Knee Brace protection is a good one, and I would highly recommend it.
Initially, I thought these motocross knee braces would be bulky and fatiguing.
But contrary to what is in the picture, they’re truly comfortable and can be worn all day.
The longest I’ve had them on is 12 hours, and they didn’t rub or anything. And unlike the flimsy options that have their straps start to dig into the backside of my leg, this one remained comfortable.
A generous amount of padding keeps your knees comfortable all through.
On top of that, the padding has moisture-wicking abilities, so I can comfortably wear them with shorts even in warm weather.
And the best part with the Leatt Brace comfort is that it starts with your knees’ comfort before building around that.
Ease of Use/Adjustability
The Leatt Knee Brace is barely noticeable and won’t result in any hindrance when walking.
First, the Continuous Cable Routing System on the straps is easy to adjust, and I love that I can dial them to whatever pants I’m wearing or the size of my calf and knee.
Secondly, the outer hinge on this knee brace is perfect for precise movement and protection. And the good thing is it provides size for users with big legs like mine.
On top of that, they work well for pocket riding where my knees are constantly extremely bent,
They hardly slip and stay in position for long without the need for constant adjustment. The braces should be in your travel kit bag.
#3 Gute Knee Pads – Budget Option
The Gute Knee Braces are the most affordable knee braces I could get, and after several seasons of riding on them, I don’t feel any difference between the premium and high-end options.
They don’t feel out of place, are comfortable, and are quite protective.
I love their nice coverage, offering protection from above the knee to just inside the boot.
Features and Benefits
I’m impressed with Gute Knee Brace’s design.
See, I ride with Fox comps, which are generally tall, but I’m glad there’s complete coverage with this knee brace.
On top of that, the shin guard plastic used here isn’t curved too steeply, and this helps with how well they conform to my legs.
The straps are of high quality, and the hinged knee joint seems quite nice.
My only concern with the Gute motocross knee braces is the plastic buckles seem a bit cheap, and I can see them breaking pretty quickly.
Otherwise, everything else with this budget purchase is nice.
Gute Knee Brace is a budget purchase, and at first, I’ve to admit I was a bit skeptical, especially with its performance.
But several seasons and crashes with this, I can say they offer better protection than Hockey pads.
I’ve ridden with them thousands of miles, and it feels great to have them on and provide that sense of security if you fall.
The High impact PE plastic and EVA shield will come to your rescue if you are wiped out riding.
This pair will work great on branches, rock deflecting, bumping into tailgates, and definitely the crashes on the ground.
In addition, I can’t get enough of the plastic clips that have held up so far and come in handy with over-extension.
The heavy plastic knee stops are sturdy and will protect you from a lot.
But as mentioned earlier, the anatomically correct hinges are plastic and seem like they would break; I only wish they were metal.
But all in all, I would buy them again.
Comfort on these bad boys is great.
It feels a bit stiff at first, but once you break into them, you’ll enjoy unmatched comfort.
The foam padding feels plush, offers superior support, without compromising on maximum mobility.
Meanwhile, the new innovative knee pads will help with a wide range of motion, making these knee braces quite useful for any activity.
Plus, they’re flexible and possible to wear under the jeans, especially the loose ones.
Over the jeans, perfect!
Ease of Use/Adjustability
Walking around with these motocross knee braces, you’ll notice that they tend to slide down.
But not a problem if you’re riding on a bike or motorcycle.
On my motocross bike, I don’t see the need of having to pull them up now and then. The straps are long enough to tighten them around my lower leg and offer a secure and tight fit.
Gute knee braces usage goes beyond dirt motocross riding.
They’re among the most versatile knee braces we’ve been around, appropriate for use in different disciplines, including dirt bikes, ATVs, skating, and scooters.
On top of that, they’re suitable for both males and females, and people of all ages.
Overall, I’m quite happy with the Gute Knee Brace purchase.
They’re quite a bargain for the price.
While they don’t feel comfortable walking around in, you’ll find a lot of joy using them on a bike.
They also seem to be pretty much reliable, sturdy, and protective, especially for the price.
#4 KING SHOWDEN 4Pcs Adults Motorcycle Pads – Value Purchase
KING SHOWDEN 4Pcs Adults Motorcycle Pads offer the best bang for the buck.
The reason is that it’s not only inexpensive, but it comes as a knee brace and knee guard combo.
Purchasing the KING SHOWDEN 4Pcs Adults Motorcycle Pads means you no longer have to buy a separate elbow guard.
But it must be unreliable and flimsy, right?
Many a time, combo purchases are sketchy, but not the KING SHOWDEN 4Pcs Adults Motorcycle Pads.
I’ve been using them for several seasons now, and I’m impressed by the overall performance so far.
They’re sturdy, easy to use, and highly protective. Even after sustaining several crashes, I’ve not experienced serious knee injuries or anything.
Plus, they’ve lasted for quite a bit now, and I don’t see like I’ll be replacing them anytime soon.
Features and Benefits
I like the KING SHOWDEN’s design because it’s very stylish.
This pair of knee braces looks sharp, and from the first glance, they look like they’ll offer unmatched knee protection.
They’re also easy to handle and quite supportive.
I was also impressed at how well they fitted my leg, considering that I’m a big guy.
Overall, the KING SHOWDEN 4Pcs Adults Motorcycle Pads is a nice purchase and has a lot going on for it.
Protection-wise, I can’t get enough of these knee braces.
See, a few days ago, I crashed on my dirt hiking path.
During the crash, I jolted forward and landed on my knee.
The good news is, I had these knee braces, and they saved both my left elbow and knee.
Yes, the elbow guard was dented, and the knee brace cracked, but I’m glad I’m uninjured and felt no pain from the impact.
It would have been a disaster considering I’m a veteran and have frail bones.
The alloy steel casing and the floating knee cup have also come to my rescue severally from the falls in the rink.
The toughness and high ruggedness of the steel will reduce the collision problems in your riding and keep you safe at all times.
I sweat a lot, but this high-end knee brace seems like the ultimate life-saving knee braces.
They come with a nice and plush interior padding that wicks the sweat away.
Today, I can wear these knee braces with my shorts since the skin-to-skin contact won’t result in a funky plastic smell.
On top of that, these knee shin guards are ultra-lightweight.
I barely notice their presence, and I no longer have to tire from the sustained long-distance riding due to fatigue or bulkiness.
Finally, the ergonomic pre-curved design conforms to the natural knee movement for a natural riding position.
It no longer hinders my movement and allows for a range of motion. This makes it a great purchase for different sports like motorbiking, cycling, skating, and dirt biking.
KING SHOWDEN knee brace meets its characteristics.
It’s comfortable, and the Velcro straps feel well-secured to your body.
The one-adjust quick-release strap system allows for easy donning and doffing of the brace.
However, in some rare cases, you might need to add extra Velcro.
#5 Alpinestars Unisex-Adult Bionic Plus Knee Protectors - Best All-Around Knee Brace
Before getting the Alpinestars Knee Protectors, I had spent on some other brands that failed me pretty bad.
But have now found comfort in these.
They’re super comfortable, practical, and I have even taken some slides on them, and they still retain their great shape.
I’m also impressed with their overall fit and adjustability.
To give you an idea of how helpful they’ve been to me, I have an XL athletic thigh and always a couple of centimeters bigger than the largest size.
But the Alpinestars Knee Protectors offer a great fit, have an impressive stretch, and just keep me super comfy.
Features and Benefits
A big thumbs up to the Alpinestars designers.
In my opinion, the Alpinestars Knee Protector design is among the best motocross knee braces in the market.
These knee pads slide on fine without riding pants and don’t pinch the behind-knee area.
I’ve also ridden them for several miles, and they don’t seem like they’ll slide down from my knees to the ankles. Just the right contact.
Plus, they seem quite sturdy, and even after using them on abusive trails and dirt bike roads, they don’t seem like they’ll wear anytime soon.
Of course, they’ve a few dents here and there, but they seem to retain their structural integrity and will take a beating without falling apart.
Knee protection should be the last thing to worry about on these knee braces.
The upper shin and knee area are sufficiently padded for the ultimate protection.
Even before I gave the guards a try, I tested it with some golf club swings, and I loved how they shielded my inner calf and thing.
What about on the trail?
The knee protection performance isn’t any different.
Yes, they’re not the burliest guards out there, but a heavy fall is sufficiently cushioned, just like with the hard protectors.
It provides a safe landing, and the impact or crashes will do little if any harm to your knee—no knee injuries.
Hot knees have never been an issue for me.
This bike knee brace is well-ventilated, helping with the free flow of air. It also helps with the efficient wicking of moisture.
I love that I can wear them when summer is around.
On top of that, the knee shin guards are ultra-lightweight, and I hardly notice their presence.
It’s as if I’m not even wearing one, yet, I get the full benefits of a protective and reliable knee guard.
While the EVA foam backing here isn’t the softest, it feels plush and luxurious. It doesn’t chafe my knees, and I’ve no problem wearing it for extended periods.
Plus, there’s no bunching of fabric behind the knee.
I’m 6’1″, and these knee pads fit great.
They’re a bit tighter on the lower strap, but you can add some Velcro to help with that. I’m fine with their design.
Plus, they also go well under my jeans, and I no longer see the need to use insert pads that tend to move around.
The dual strap hook and loop closure offer more comfort and adjustment for an ergonomic fit.
Best Dirt Bike Knee Guards Buying Guide
Dirt biking is a fun sport but also a dangerous one.
But when it comes to dirt bike safety, many riders often prioritize the neck braces, and helmets, forgetting the knee guards.
However, they’re just as important, and in case you crash, these guards work well to protect against potential tears of your meniscus, ACL, MCL, or even spraining your knees.
Benefits of the Best Bike Knee Guards
Prevent knee injuries
The first reason you should have knee guards on is they help in preventing knee injuries.
In an accident, the guards will absorb the initial and subsequent crash impact and keep your knees safe.
Knee guards offer a snug fit and are also quite flexible.
If you get the right size, you’ll benefit from a range of motion and increased freedom.
Most of them are lightweight, comfy, and flexible, barely noticeable when you’ve them on.
The other reason you should have these knee protectors is they offer unmatched comfort and warmth.
They’re nice to wear, feel plush, and generally offer a wonderful wearing experience.
Knee Braces vs. Knee Guards vs. Knee Pads
Knee protectors come in different forms and designs.
The three most popular forms include:
1) Knee braces
Traditionally, knee braces were only ideal for serious knee injury protection or postoperative use.
But that’s not true.
While most of them are used for preventative measures, they also offer additional knee support to help prevent the direct impact and rotational forces.
I should also mention that they’re also a bit more expensive than other protectors.
2) Knee guards
Knee guards are generally cheaper but do a great job shielding your knees against direct impact and hard crashes from objects like rocks, branches, and even asphalt ground.
They’re also quite popular with enduro and trail riders because of their lightweight and simple design.
The knee guards are also quite flexible and comfortable.
3) Knee Pad
A knee pad won’t offer as much protection as the other two, but they’re better than having nothing.
Also known as cushion pads, they’ll offer some knee and shin protection, but they do little in terms of lateral impact or twisting.
Types of Knee Braces/Guards
There’re three main categories of knee braces, and they include:
The prophylactic braces offer preventive measures.
The lower risk of injuries and provide greater protection.
The functional braces are used for post-knee injury protection, especially ACL injury.
They limit the rotation of the knee and prevent the exacerbation of the existing injury.
The functional braces may also come in handy for riders with osteoarthritis or several knee issues.
The rehabilitative braces are similar to the functional braces and are ideal for a reconstructed knee by restricting the undesired knee movement.
This brace may also come in handy for those performing physical therapy.
How to Choose the Best Motocross Knee Braces
As we’ve already seen, the best knee braces are a crucial part of your bike gear.
But not every gear is as protective.
Knowing how to select the right motocross knee brace for your needs requires knowledge of the essential elements a reliable knee brace should come with.
And in the guide below, I’ll share the vital factors to consider in your next purchase.
It’s a no-brainer; the first reason you should consider a knee brace is protection.
So, with this in mind, start by considering whether your choice will offer the protection you need.
Generally, the choice of material used on a knee shin guard determines the level of protection.
The protective knee braces are usually made of reliable and robust materials such as carbon fiber and Hybrid combination 3D foam padded backing/ fiberglass-reinforced nylon.
Without crumbling, these materials will effectively stand up to whatever impact, crashes, or anything you throw at them.
They’ll shield your knees and keep you safe, even in case of an accident.
Also, consider knee guards with double knee cups as these help with extra protection.
Next, after safety and quality protection, you need to consider comfort.
You’ll be having the knee guards on your body for the whole riding session, so you need them to be comfortable. Otherwise, they might be a cause of distraction.
At the very least, the most comfortable knee guards are lightweight. You barely notice their presence.
They also come with a cushion or plush material for extra comfort and some warmth.
On top of that, the cushion used here should be breathable and flexible enough not to restrict your natural rider movement.
Quality and Durability
While remaining protective and comfortable, your bike knee shin guard choice should also be sturdy and long-lasting.
Durable guards will perform well in different conditions and serve long without showing signs of wear.
Consider the material as it determines the overall quality.
I can’t mention enough the importance of a good fit.
A nice-fitting knee brace is important for a comfortable riding experience.
The good news is, knee braces are available in different sizes and shapes, so it’s easy to find an option that will accommodate your knee size.
While still on the sizing, consider a knee brace with a proper fitting system.
Straps will help keep the brace in place and avoid sliding down and exposing the legs.
They help to secure your knee brace more tightly on the leg. Some other straps even have grippy materials to hug the skin and ensure the brace doesn’t fall off.
Impact absorption is a sub-category of safety, but I thought I should include it as a separate segment.
This is because most knee injuries revolve around crashes and impacts.
The best dirt bike knee guard should have an exterior that can resist the crash. It should absorb the impact and shield your knee from any impact coming down.
Most of the knee guards with the best impact protection have proper padding that helps absorb the hits.
Quality knee braces feature a pivoting hinge for flexibility.
The hinges add to the overall comfort by allowing free and natural leg movement without exposing you.
The best knee braces with pivoting hinges allow the knee cap to move, corresponding to your leg motion.
Having a bike knee brace with a hyperextension lock is important.
A lockout system is essential to prevent your knee joints from bending the wrong way.
By restricting your knee movements, the best knee guards shield your knee from twisting, which is good for overall knee safety.
Finally, we always advise riders to consider the CE-certified knee guards, especially if you’re looking for reliable and complete knee protection.
The CE Certified knee guards have gone through rigorous and thorough testing to ensure quality and protective design.
It meets all the safety standards and protection criteria.
Best Dirt Bike Knee Guard Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Do I need to wear a knee shin guard?
A knee guard is necessary to keep your knees protected and safe against crashes, impacts, and other accidents.
Q: How should the knee shin guard fit?
A: Your knee brace should fit snugly, not too tight, and not too loose.
If you make your Guard too tight, it may restrict your legs’ natural movement and even cut off blood circulation on the lower legs.
On the other hand, if you make it too loose, the brace will likely slide off and keep on distracting you.
Q: Can I use a knee brace with an existing knee injury?
A: Yes, the rehabilitative knee braces will help with a quick recovery.
But it’s a good idea to use post-injury braces to help with a speedy recovery.
Q: What’s the best material for the best dirt bike knee guards?
A: Usually, the best material for knee braces is carbon fiber.
Carbon fiber is ultra-light, comfortable, and protective. However, it’s a bit expensive.
Other materials are popular with knee shin guards, and some of these include 3DF foam or fiberglass-reinforced nylon.
Q: Are cheap knee guards good?
A: In my opinion, cheap isn’t good.
See, a knee guard is there to protect and shield your body. And you only have one.
So, it wouldn’t make sense to gamble with a flimsy knee protector.
But again, it doesn’t mean you should use the premium options only.
They’re pretty affordable options that won’t dig deep into your pockets and still offer reliable protection.

SAVANNAH, GA – -(AmmoLand.com)- A California man is facing a substantial prison sentence after pleading guilty to illegally possessing explosive materials.
Robert Christopher Bailey, 50, of Los Angeles, pled guilty in U.S. District Court to Possession of Explosive Materials as a Prohibited Person, said Bobby L. Christine, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Georgia.
The charge carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison, followed by a period of supervised release. There is no parole in the federal system.
According to evidence presented at the plea hearing, on or about July 9, 2018, Bailey was working on the movie set The Poison Rose starring John Travolta and Morgan Freeman as a special effects and pyrotechnics coordinator.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) conducted an investigation and determined Bailey was a person prohibited from possessing explosive materials.
“The state of Georgia, particularly Savannah, has a tremendous history and relationship with the motion picture industry,” said U.S. Attorney Christine. “Accordingly, we take very seriously our obligations to uphold the law and to preserve the safety of our citizens and those working in our state.”
This case was investigated by Special Agent Lee Hoover of the ATF, and prosecuted for the United States by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Joshua Bearden and Frank Pennington.

The Bay State packs a lot of adventure into its borders, and with four seasons of great weather and a diverse range of attractions, you’ll find there is something to do for everyone.
Massachusetts is one of the best places in the world to see whales, and there are dozens of guides and charters excited to get you on the water. In Gloucester, 7 Seas Whale Watch has been putting guests close to whales since 1983 – trips are designed to educate, inspire, and impart a better understanding of fragile marine environments. In Plymouth, Plymouth Whale Watching says humpbacks are seen on nearly every trip, and other common sightings include finback whales, minke whales, and right whales. Provincetown’s Dolphin Whale Watch gets you close to humpbacks and minkes but also lets you hear whale sounds and collect and view microscopic species of marine plankton.
Ready for a catch of your own? The state has dozens of first-rate fishing charter companies, some operating right out of Boston Harbor!

Explore beaches, dunes, and cranberry bogs at Parker River Wildlife Refuge. Near Lanesborough, you can hike to the highest peak in Massachusetts – Mount Greylock, which stands at 3,491 feet. About 90 miles of the nation’s most famous trail – the Appalachian Trail – traipses through Massachusetts.
The state is an up and coming destination for mountain bikers who love the region’s tight singletrack and tacky dirt. Bikers will find 10 miles of trails suitable for advanced riders at Charlemont and 35 miles of great routes in Harold Parker State Forest.

Boston’s big city environment is tamed by its greenways – these paths are made for walking or biking and link different parts of the city. The Rose Kennedy Greenway is the city’s most famous – it has landscaped gardens, plazas, and promenades and is 1.5 miles long. Use it to get from Chinatown to the Waterfront and beyond. The Charles River Bike Path is busy year-round with walkers, bikers, and runners – it runs for 23 miles west from Boston to Newton, passing through Watertown and Waltham along the way. You’ll find the Bay State has plenty of great spots for trail running, too – lace up your shoes and head for Fresh Pond, the Ware River Trail, the Western Greenway, and the trails at Franklin Park.
The state’s beautiful rivers provide a great landscape for rafting. The Deerfield River is one of the most popular places for those in search of whitewater – Crabapple, Berkshire, and Moxie all offer guided trips. Kayakers and canoers can find great flatwater boating on the Charles River, Spot Pond and in C.M. Gardner State Park, Nickerson State Park, and Leominster State Forest.
So grab your skis, your bike, or your hiking shoes and head for Massachusetts – there’s an adventure here waiting for you.

Enjoy an aquatic adventure on your next visit to eastern Massachusetts.
At 3,491 feet, Mount Greylock is the highest natural point in the state of Massachusetts.

Conservation groups call on Facebook to stop spread of hate, bias, misinformation
Conservation Northwest / Sep 30, 2020 / National Wildlife Federation
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Facebook should examine why it has become a space that provides for a spread of hate and for disinformation that undermines science and fact-based policy, conservation leaders said today in an open letter to Facebook.
The letter, led by the National Wildlife Federation and Conservation Northwest, along with 16 other conservation groups throughout the country, called on Facebook to do more to stop hate from flourishing online and to adopt policies that stop the spread of hate and misinformation on its platform.
“As the nation struggles to control the pandemic, nature has provided a valuable and safe respite. But, as we have seen with the racism behind the Christian Cooper incident in New York City, the benefits of nature are not available for all. The pandemic has also made the impacts of systemic racism abundantly clear. Those living in areas where air pollution has historically been the worst — communities where predominantly Black and Brown people live — have a higher likelihood of dying due to COVID-19 than those,” the 18 conservation organizations said in the letter. “We will not succeed as a nation until nature and a healthful environment are truly available to all. Facebook has to recognize its role in fostering an environment that perpetuates the culture of racism and hate that puts nature out of bounds.”
“We stand for civil society and against hate,” said Mitch Friedman, executive director of Conservation Northwest in Seattle and one of the authors of the letter. “But more than that, efforts to conserve nature are anchored in science and a careful search for mutual understanding rooted in facts and truths. This delicate quest for truthful dialogue and science-based policy is being deliberately destabilized by interests with peculiar agendas, and Facebook is presently amplifying and even profiting off of those agendas. This must stop.”
The groups called on Facebook to change the algorithms and tools that prioritize “engagement,” resulting in amplification of misinformation and hate. | <urn:uuid:7e85ff19-e6cd-4794-a44a-42dfb389740c> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.conservationnw.org/news-updates/nwf-conservation-groups-letter-facebook/ | 2022-01-24T10:10:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.954233 | 425 |

STEEL PROPHET released “Tree of Knowledge”, the second video clip taken from the forthcoming album “Omniscient”, which is due on July 11 in Europe and July 8 in the U.S. on Cruz del Sur Music. Firstly streamed exclusively at www.apochs.net earlier this week, the video is now available on our YouTube channel. Please subscribe to keep updated on our bands’ engaging videoclips!
To see STEEL PROPHET‘s previous “Omniscient” video clip, titled “666 is Everywhere”, please follow this link.
“Omniscient” will be released in less than 3 weeks in a limited edition 36-page digibook, compact disc (24-page booklet) and digital album. We regret to inform the fans that, because of production delays, the vinyl edition is postponed to late August.
This much anticipated record comes ten years after the band’s latest studio release, and will be a concept album based on an original story written by STEEL PROPHET‘s guitarist and founder member Steve Kachinsky Blakmoor. Famous German artist Timo Würz delivered an amazing cover artwork, and prepared 12 original booklet illustrations which help explain the lyrics and story itself.
STEEL PROPHET is not new to telling stories throughout concept albums: in fact, its 1999 classic “Dark Hallucinations” featured the “Fahrenheit 451” story by Ray Bradbury. “Omniscient” will certainly continue the tradition in great style.
Our two much anticipated May releases, VESTAL CLARET “The Cult of Vestal Claret” and BATTLEROAR “Blood of Legends”, are finally available for pre–order.
Please note that we are now using the excellent DHL Express service: your vinyl orders will be delivered in 24-36 hours throughout Europe.
Battleroar “Blood of Legends” is certainly one of the strongest Epic Metal releases of the last few years. New singer Gerrit Mutz (of Sacred Steel fame) pleases his fans and surprise the skeptics once again delivering the goods with a very convincing and inspired performance. This excellent recording, enriched by delicate violin melodies and the thunderous performance of an entire set of classical players, will leave you breathless.
The German press is already favourably impressed:
“Zusammen mit der neuen Cobra-Scheibe für mich in diesem Monat die Pflichtkauf-Kandidaten im klassischen Sektor.” (Mega-Metal)
“Gänsehautmomente garantiert!” (Rock Hard, D)
“Erst ein wunderschönes folkiges langes Instrumental, bevor die True-Metal-Battle beginnt!” (Bleeding4Metal.de, D)
It includes over 60 minutes of music and will be also officially released on May 2nd. Pre-orders are available at our webstore now. Besides the digital, the CD comes in digipack compact disc with 16-page booklet and double gatefold vinyl editions. Read more “VESTAL CLARET and BATTLEROAR open PRE ORDERS”

As the 21st century begins amid high hopes and great expectations throughout the world, the decline of academic performance overall in P-12 schools, and the consistent underperformance of students of color and low income students continues to persist in the United States (Harrow, Mieses, Shopsin, & Taylor, 2000; Johnston, 2005; Roach, 2004; Simpson, & Schnitzer). The future welfare and the national security of our country depends not only on how well we educate our children, but also on how well we prepare teachers for working with racially and culturally diverse learners (Chew, 2003; Finn, 1989; Tanner, 1993; U.S. Department of Education, National Commission on Excellence in Education., 1983). All of this means the prevailing achievement gap among White students, students of color, and low-income students demands immediate action. Due to changing demographics in the K-12 student population contrasted with the homogeneous population of prospective teachers, the uncertainty about teacher preparedness to meet the needs of diverse student populations remains a controversial educational issue. Teacher educators have continued to question whether preservice teachers presently in schools, colleges, and departments of education (SCDEs) have the requisite skills and the necessary sensitivity toward racial and cultural diversity to meet the challenges associated with effectively teaching culturally diverse students. | <urn:uuid:4dafd28b-f832-4d77-93af-12751f779c28> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.goreadabook.org/book/512752311/interfacing-culture-specific-pedagogy-counseling-proposed | 2022-01-24T11:20:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.926413 | 265 |

In early 2020, partners in Greater Cincinnati could show progress in their efforts to fight the region’s opioid epidemic. Drug overdose deaths in the region had declined by 26% from 2017 to 2019.
Then they were forced to combat a pandemic in the middle of the epidemic.
To help understand how the two health crises are related, the Greater Cincinnati COVID-19 Health Issues Survey asked adults how the pandemic affected their friends’ or family members’ substance abuse. It found that about 1 in10 Greater Cincinnati adults (8%) reported a friend or family member had experienced a drug overdose during the pandemic, and about 1 in 10 (8%) indicated a friend or family member who had previously struggled with substance use experienced a relapse.
The data are reflected in the attached infographic.
Another measure of the impact of the pandemic on substance use is overdose deaths. Preliminary overdose death rates for 2020 varied across the Greater Cincinnati region. Some counties saw an increase while others saw a decline. Provisional national data released today by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that overdose deaths in the U.S. increased by 29.4% in 2020, reaching 93,000, the highest annual number ever recorded.
“Stress and isolation are constant challenges for people with substance use disorders,†said Sonya Carrico, Senior Program Officer with Interact for Health. “Combine that with reduced access to syringe services programs, emergency care during an overdose and peer support, and it’s not surprising that a significant number of people struggled with relapse, or even worse, experienced an overdose during the pandemic.â€
The Greater Cincinnati COVID-19 Health Issues Survey also found that specific groups experienced higher rates of drug overdose or relapse. People aged 30 to 45, people with less than a high school education and people living in poverty were more likely to report that a friend or family member had experienced an overdose during the pandemic. Those living in Boone, Campbell and Kenton counties, those aged 30-45 and those living in poverty were more likely to have a friend or family member who relapsed.
“Organizations in the region that serve people with substance use disorders have long been willing to try new and innovative ways to help people struggling with addiction access harm reduction and recovery services,†Carrico said. “The pandemic was no different. Providers in our region pivoted to offer services via telehealth, drive-through and other methods to reach those in need. Further, the region’s first harm reduction supply dispensing machine, operated by Caracole and funded by Interact for Health, launched in February. The program allows individuals to access supplies 24/7 via contactless delivery.â€
Individuals who are struggling with drug abuse or who are concerned about a family member’s substance use can search for treatment providers in their area on www.findlocaltreatment.com or www.findhelpnowky.org. Experts also recommend carrying naloxone to reverse opioid overdoses. Access to naloxone is available by mail order in Ohio from Harm Reduction Ohio and in Indiana from Ship Happens, and in Kentucky from the Bracken County, Northern Kentucky, Three Rivers and other county health departments.
Interact for Health regularly conducts research and collects data in order to monitor and evaluate our region’s health status and to measure public opinions about health policy.

Data from UK Finance showed that the three nations saw combined lending growth of £592m, with Scotland up £373m, Wales rising £137m and Northern Ireland up £82m compared to the period of April to June last year.
All three regions’ increases were driven by higher transaction numbers across the board from first-time buyers, home purchasers and remortgagors.
In Scotland first-time buyers rose 3.5 per cent to 9,160 – the highest figure since Q2 2017 which hit the same number.
There was also a 6.4 per cent rise in home mover mortgages with remortgaging up 15.3 per cent.
Wales saw increases of 6.3 per cent, 1.7 per cent and 7.7 per cent for first-time buyers, homemovers and remortaging respectively.
And Northern Ireland witnessed gains of 4.1 per cent, 4.7 per cent and 16.5 per cent respectively.
Significant gains were also seen when compared with the first three months of 2019, however this appears to match the trend for a busier spring after the slower winter period.
In contrast, remortgaging and home mover activity have dragged down the London market.
There were 6,240 new home mover mortgages completed in London in the second quarter of 2019, three per cent fewer than in the same quarter in 2018.
And the 13,030 remortgages completions show a drop of 9.5 per cent, which UK Finance noted followed a period of strong annual growth in remortgaging in the capital during 2018.
Perhaps encouragingly, the number of first-time buyers rose 1.2 per cent to reach 9,960.
However, all this meant that the value of lending completed was down three per cent or £334m.
Not all doom and gloom
Just Mortgages and Spicerhaart national operations director John Phillips noted that while last week’s, UK Finance Mortgage Trends Report revealed falls in remortgaging, first-time buyer and homemover mortgages across the UK, these figures painted a different picture.
“I think this shows two things; firstly, it reveals just how much London impacts the national figures, and that when you take the capital out of the stats, it is a very different picture,” he said.
“Secondly, it shows that perhaps it is not all doom and gloom as we have been led to believe over the past few months.
“When looked at on a quarterly basis – which you could argue reveals more of a longer term trend than monthly figures – activity is actually increasing, and that is great news for the housing market.”
Yopa chief property analyst Mike Scott agreed, adding: “This data confirms that the housing market is slow in London, especially for home movers, but is still performing well in UK regions other than England where prices are much lower and affordability is much better.
“Despite higher salaries in London, the average first-time buyer mortgage is for 3.8 times the borrower’s gross household income, compared with 3.02 times in Northern Ireland, 3.16 times in Scotland and 3.35 times in Wales.
“Yopa expects to see a further narrowing of the north-south divide in house prices, as London and the South East have reached their affordability limits, while there is still some headroom in the rest of the country,” he added. | <urn:uuid:02754df0-ea6a-462f-81bf-5523d4dad561> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.mortgagesolutions.co.uk/news/2019/08/20/quarterly-mortgage-activity-up-almost-600m-in-scotland-wales-and-northern-ireland/ | 2022-01-24T11:18:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.963963 | 727 |
Master and commander
A Karratha worker has been named Australia’s first indigenous master mariner, meaning he can now command any ship of any size in any ocean in the world.
Woodside employee Ryan Cobb, who works on his grandmother’s country of Ngarluma, said his journey to reach this achievement had been an adventure and he was glad it allowed him to provide for his family at home.
Mr Cobb said he began working in the pearling industry on small boats off Broome when he was 18, before Woodside gave him the opportunity to train on offshore vessels.
“Pearl divers were the legends of the town. That was really my passion and that’s what drove me to want to work at sea,” he said.
“It’s a long way to come from the small pearling boats in Broome.”
Mr Cobb said his role at Woodside also allowed him to mentor young indigenous seafarers from the north.
“I want to encourage young indigenous people to get involved in the marine industry,” he said.
Determined to learn more and showing no signs of slowing down, Mr Cobb said he planned to become the first indigenous Australian to pilot an LNG tanker.
“My goal now is to become a marine pilot with Woodside,” he said.
Woodside logistics vice-president Steve Trench said the company was proud of Mr Cobb’s achievements, hard work and determination.
“He’s a great role model to young people and his career journey to become a master mariner demonstrates the diversity of opportunities on offer at Woodside,” he said. “We encourage local indigenous youth from Karratha and Roebourne to consider a career with us.”

Attorney General Jeff Sessions said "sanctuary cities" that won’t cooperate immigration authorities are acting unlawfully and stand to lose funds if they don’t comply.
The Justice Department’s inspector general has determined that policies in such jurisdictions are illegal, Sessions said March 27.
"Not only do these policies endanger lives of every American, just last May, the Department of Justice inspector general found that these policies also violate federal law," Sessions, who began leading the department this year under Trump’s administration, said during a White House press briefing.
Is that accurate? Sessions is exaggerating what the inspector general actually said.
Inspector general’s memo
There is not a legal, federal definition for "sanctuary cities," but they’re generally regarded as local governments that limit their cooperation with immigration officials. Usually they do that by refusing to hold people in local jails (beyond the time they would have been released) when asked to do so by U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement.
That’s called a refusal to honor a detainer request. ICE detainers ask local law enforcement agencies to alert the federal agency of upcoming releases of individuals and to detain them for up to 48 hours so that immigration authorities can pick them up.
Jurisdictions with "sanctuary" policies argue that they have good reasons not to co-operate with immigration officials. They say that their policies help build trust between local police and their community, and that their cities are not crime magnets.
Amid Trump’s call to cut funding for sanctuary cities, some cities such as Boston and New York remain committed to policies that shield immigrants. Others, fearing a loss of money, have walked back their policies. A day after Trump signed an executive order to advance his promise, Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez directed county officials to comply with detainer requests, though he had previously claimed his jurisdiction was not a sanctuary.
Sessions was basing his claim that the cities were violating the law on an inspector general’s memo. In May 2016, Michael E. Horowitz, the Justice Department inspector general wrote a memo to the assistant attorney general for the Office of Justice Programs in response to queries on whether jurisdictions receiving department grants were violating the law, specifically 8 U.S. Code Section 1373.
Section 1373 says federal, state or local government entities or officials may not prohibit or restrict the exchange of information with federal immigration officers regarding the citizenship or immigration status of any individual.
Of the more than 140 jurisdictions in question, the inspector general’s office took a sample of 10 jurisdictions, which included the state of California, Chicago, and Miami-Dade County in Florida. It reviewed their policies regarding their interaction and communication with ICE and asked ICE officials for feedback.
All 10 jurisdictions had policies limiting in some way their cooperation with ICE detainer requests, the May 2016 memo said.
But local jails are not required by law to respond to detainers requests, and the handling of detainers is not addressed in Section 1373.
Yet the May 2016 memo raised concerns about the wording in some local ordinances and how officials may be interpreting and applying them.
For instance, a Chicago ordinance said, "except as otherwise provided under applicable federal law, no agent or agency shall disclose information regarding the citizenship or immigration status of any person unless required to do so by legal process."
The inspector general’s office raised concerns on whether Chicago city employees were aware of their legal authority to act against the local ordinance and respond to ICE detainer requests.
Policies in other jurisdictions besides Chicago "may be causing local officials to believe and apply the policies in a manner that prohibits or restricts cooperation with ICE in all respects. That, of course, would be inconsistent with and prohibited by Section 1373."
A spokesman for Sessions highlighted the previous line as backup for the attorney general’s claim.
But that line has a footnote, which says:
"The ICE officials we spoke with noted that no one at (Department of Homeland Security) or ICE has made a formal legal determination whether certain state and local laws or policies violate Section 1373, and we are unaware of any Department of Justice decision in that regard. These ICE officials were also unaware of any legal action taken by the federal government against a state or local jurisdiction to require cooperation."
Experts evaluate Sessions’ interpretation
Several immigration law scholars we reached out to disagreed with Sessions’ read of the memo.
We spoke with five immigration law scholars; four of them disagreed with Sessions' interpretation of the memo.
The closest support for Sessions' claim came from Gabriel (Jack) Chin, a professor and director of clinical legal education at the University of California-Davis law school. The concerns raised by the inspector general give Sessions’ claim some credence, he said.
"While there is a little hedge because no jurisdiction has been accused of violating 1373, or found to have done so, my reading is that some jurisdictions are in apparent violation of the law," Chin said.
The other were more skeptical.
"Sessions went beyond what the report said. The report expresses concern that some cities’ policies might violate section 1373, but in the end the report stops short of finding any violations," said Hiroshi Motomura, a law professor at University of California, Los Angeles, School of Law. "In fact, the language of the report seems carefully chosen to limit itself to raising concerns without finding violations."
The "may" qualification in the report "is far from a definitive conclusion that these policies are against the law," said Ilya Somin, a law professor at George Mason University who has opined in the Washington Post that Trump’s executive order related to so-called sanctuary cities is unconstitutional.
"The inspector general had no real information, but merely a vague idea that it was possible that in some jurisdictions policies may be causing a violation of Section 1373," said Margo Schlanger, a law professor at the University of Michigan who used to run the civil rights office at Department of Homeland Security during the Obama administration.
The argument in the inspector general's memo seems to be that the policies could violate Section 1373 as applied, noted Huyen Pham, a law professor at Texas A&M University School of Law.
"But the inspector general recognizes that this argument would require a lot more systematic gathering of empirical information than what it did in its investigation," Pham said. "Thus the carefully couched 'may be' language."
Sessions said, "Just last May, the Department of Justice inspector general found that these (‘sanctuary’) policies also violate federal law."
A memo issued by the inspector general raised questions about how local officials may be interpreting and applying ordinances that limit their cooperation with federal immigration authorities.
But the memo also explicitly said a formal legal determination on whether certain state and local laws or policies violate Section 1373 had not been made by immigration officials and that his office was unaware of any Justice Department decision in that regard.
Sessions’ statement contains an element of truth but ignores critical facts that would give a different impression. We rate it Mostly False.

Indian skipper Virat Kohli made a bold decision as he decided to openly reveal his depressed mental state after a disastrous outing in the India tour of England in 2014. Kohli was put under major scrutiny in 2014 after he failed to live up to his reputation against England and ended up scoring just 134 in 10 innings, at a paltry average of 13.4.
Speaking about the bad phase of his life and cricket career, Virat revealed his story of battling depression during the England tour in 2014 as he woke up with the feeling that he won’t be able to score runs. The Indian skipper narrated that it wasn’t a good feeling for him as he didn’t know how to get over with that phase.
“I did (feel depressed). It’s not a great feeling when you wake up knowing that you won’t be able to score any runs and I think all batsmen have felt that at some stage or the other that you are not in control of anything at all. And you just don’t understand how to get over it,” the 32-year-old had said while speaking on Mark Nicholas’ ‘Not Just Cricket’ podcast.
With his confession of fighting depression, Virat managed to impress the batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar as the latter took to his official Twitter handle to laud the Indian captain for showcasing his brave side and coming out in open regarding his mental state.
“@imVkohli, proud of your success & decision to share such personal experiences. These days youngsters are constantly judged on social media. Thousands speak about them but not to them. We need to be able to listen to them and help them flourish,” Tendulkar tweeted.

Virat Kohli reveals the advice he had received from Sachin Tendulkar
Virat has travelled way ahead of the 2014 tour as he is arguably the best batsmen of the modern era across all three formats in the international circuit. The batsman had stamped his authority on England pitches during the 2018 India tour of England by amassing a whopping 593 runs at an average of 59.3, including two centuries.
Further in the interaction, Virat had shed light on how a piece of advice by Sachin had changed his outlook towards the game and helped him tackle depression and come out of that phase.
“The thing that he (Sachin Tendulkar) told me was, in cricket, what he experienced was if you are going through a strong negative feeling and if that is coming into your system regularly, it is best to let it pass. If you start fighting that feeling, it grows stronger. So, that is the advice I took on board, and my mindset really opened up from then on.” Kohli had said.

Simon Evans, author of over 70 books and a successful YouTuber, destroys the climate change myth with a simple, but devastatingly effective, trick.
Simon Evans produces one of the most interesting and informative channels on youtube. He regularly debunks current topics and long held dogmas often quickly, simply and with devastating effect.
Evans recently posted a short video about climate change that utterly debunks the now commonly held view. He points out that, scientists have not always believed that the world is warming, and that prior to the 1980s scientists told us that the world was cooling, and that we were on the brink of another ice age.
Evans asks 'Fifty years ago, all the evidence suggested that the Earth was growing cooler and the fear was that a new Ice Age might be approaching. How did this anxiety turn into the present idea that the world is getting warmer?'
His answer is brilliant in its simplicity.

It’s nice to know that Mother Nature can call us all out on ever thinking we can control anything in life. After last winter’s amazing snow fall, breaking records left and right, and leaving us piles of snow to start our summer season in June, this winter has gone the other direction. As you can see from the photos (credit to amazing staff photography Jessica Eck!), there is some snow, and it is beautiful out here, we just get spoiled out here and have pretty high expectations.
In November, when we received about 3 feet of snow, we thought we were off to an early start of the winter resort season in Colorado. December rolled around and it wasn’t as generous. The staff came in for training, and there wasn’t any fresh snow. But we still had so much from November, that we weren’t concerned. As orientation went along, we all just kept thinking, “The fresh snow will come”. And then it never did. This same mindset played into the holidays, when we kept expecting that we would wake up to a White Christmas, and never did. Having so much snow in November still made it a winter wonderland out here, and still allowed us to get out and enjoy the snow on skis, snowshoes, horses, sleighs, and snow tubes. But, like I said before, we’re kind of spoiled out here and used to fresh snow gracing us frequently!
Last weekend, we had a beautiful dump of fresh snow, that added another great layer to the white frosting on the roofs of the cabins and Lodge. It allowed Charlie to groom a little more of our ski trails, and for the guides to get to some terrain that they hadn’t skied for a little while. This morning, the wind is kicking in and another storm should be rolling into the area. We’ll see how much snow this storm brings, but are just grateful for anything we get these days!
So, my mantra this year has been, “Do your snow dances!”. What’s a snow dance? It’s whatever you want it to be. Grooving to funky tunes, rocking out to the 80’s, sliding to a salsa beat, you name it. Just turn up the tunes, think about snow, and start dancing! Here’s the best part of it: you will burn calories, have some fun, and it will help you get in shape for you to come out and strap on some skis to enjoy the fruits of your labor! I have no idea if snow dances work, and the inner cynic in me doesn’t even want to think about it….but it’s fun so go with it. Do your snow dances, and I’ll let you know if it’s working! | <urn:uuid:c6fbb8e5-4526-46fe-b783-5f3ec0adeab7> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.vistaverde.com/this-week-at-the-ranch/snow-dances/ | 2022-01-24T10:05:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.956963 | 594 |
Miller Poultry is embracing sustainability by installing and beginning the process of converting specific operations and offices to using solar energy.
Miller Poultry partnered with Solar Energy Systems LLC to install a solar system in November 2018. The two family-owned Indiana companies consider this is a big step in Miller Poultry’s goal of improving energy efficiency and implementing sustainable practices. Most of Miller Poultry grower’s barns are utilizing solar panels to help power the barn, so integrating solar panels into the company’s offices was the next natural step.
The solar energy system is designed to help offset the electricity consumption in one of Miller Poultry’s live operations offices. The solar energy system will offset most, if not all their electricity usage and reduce the company’s costs. The system will offset thousands of gallons of gasoline over a 30-year period, Solar Energy Systems stated in a press release.
Miller Poultry’s interest in this project stems from its desire to improve the environment and become more sustainable by creating its own clean, free electricity. Miller Poultry hopes that this initiative will spread the word for other farmers and their own poultry growers that solar is the right choice for reducing costs and becoming independent farmers.
“Sustainability and being good stewards of the environment is a part of who we are and have been for many years. From top to bottom we believe in this sustainability initiative and feel blessed that Solar Energy Systems LLC has been so helpful along the way” said Stephen J. Shepard, vice president of live operations, Miller Poultry.
“Miller Poultry’s customers already know that they provide naturally grown chicken in an ethical and healthy manner, but now we can be confident that Miller Poultry is taking even greater steps to better our local and global environment by going solar” said Sydney Rosario, the animal well-being and ethics manager at Miller Poultry and overseeing the broad initiative. “Solar Energy Systems has been helpful throughout the entire process and we’re excited about the future projects to come.”
Solar Energy Systems LLC has been providing premium quality solar panels, installation, and customer service since 2006. | <urn:uuid:ff43c497-84a2-4866-abb7-f67bef402c2d> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://www.wattagnet.com/articles/36510-miller-poultry-installing-solar-power-systems | 2022-01-24T10:14:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.932328 | 445 |
Dr. Zent’s Philosophy of Teaching Piano
Dr. Don Zent teaches piano lessons to students from ages 7 to 90, including children, teens, and adults from Jessamine County and Greater Lexington area in Kentucky. Teaching at Asbury University, Wilmore, Kentucky, from September through May, he offers private piano lessons in 30-minute blocks per week.
For beginners at the piano, Dr. Zent uses the piano as a means to teach a strong foundation in music education. By playing attractive and enjoyable pieces, beginning students focus on reading music well, learning patterns of rhythm and notation, musical symbols and terms, intervals, scales, and chords. Intermediate and advanced students are provided excellent repertoire, mostly classical, considering individual skills of the student and fortifying weaknesses; furthermore, knowledge of music theory continues, enhancing understanding of prepared pieces. Dr. Zent teaches how to produce a beautiful, singing tone, how to adjust the sound so that individual lines have the appropriate weight, how to shape a phrase, how to adjust fingering and technique to achieve the easiest possible solution for fluent playing of a passage, and how to use the pedal effectively; furthermore, he focuses on understanding the entire architecture of the piece so that one can form a reasonable interpretation, on observing carefully markings of articulation and dynamics, on strategies for productive practicing, and on methods for secure memorization. All of his students learn to play piano expressively and lyrically in a singing style, playing pieces that are interesting, enjoyable, and refreshing both to hear and to play; at the same time students gradually develop a solid, flexible technique.
Dr. Zent’s philosophy of teaching piano involves combining specific praise and specific criticism, a balance of strong, honest encouragement on the one hand with forthright ways to conquer weaknesses so that they become strengths. Realizing that all challenges are effectively met through persistence and discipline, he has high expectations for his students; yet he is gentle in his approach.
The piano is truly a wonderful instrument: it is a joy to learn to play it for one’s self and to share piano music with others. To this end, Dr. Zent’s students participate not only in a yearly piano recital in May but also prepare pieces for the National Guild. | <urn:uuid:42dfae30-43cd-4a0e-b84f-fd79d3124d8e> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://zentlyricpianostudio.com/piano-lessons-2/ | 2022-01-24T09:55:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304528.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20220124094120-20220124124120-00638.warc.gz | en | 0.94315 | 464 |

I bought my first pair on amazon in december a friend did so too, both were badly aligned and mine even leaked white glue so i returned as that‘s not what i expect from apple. Today i bought at a big electronics store in my area again over 1mm kerb and today green glue… both were distributed from ireland and made in vietnam.
Is there a chance i get „better“ or at least tolerable quality if i just keep trying? I mean a small gap without glue would be fine for me as i love the product itself :(
Also i know the black line is normal that doesn‘t bother me i‘d be glad if it were only like that.

2022.01.25 17:33 12junk insensitive person blaming me of spreading omicron/corona to the campus
I was with someone and I’m know they had covid because they had the symptoms but I thought they were drunk. We spent the night together and the next day i tested positive. I told them to get tested and they said they did and got negative. But their friend who is also my friend said they didn’t want to get tested because they didn’t want to be quarantined. QUARANTINED. It’s obvious they have it since they go out to party a lot and they said to my friend I should get tested again because it can be false. They only care for themselves. But I am positive and feel sick. They then sent me a post that says “spreading omicron for christmas” and they said “u but on campus” That actually hurt and was insensitive of them bc i’m the one being quarantined rn for everyone’s health and mine. I’m tired of being walked all over because they lied to my face and I want to be straight up. I was thinking of saying “that’s uncalled for and insensitive ima be straight up i heard u didnt get tested bc u didn’t want to get quarantined and IM quarantined rn so i don’t spread it to others it’s called being considerate for others health and taking responsibility but u do u. i’m actually disappointed in u but take care of urself and ur friends safety”
Is there anything else I should add?

2022.01.25 17:33 ExceedinglyGayRoach I know the whole Silk Road/Triad side campaign thing only exists to justify adding DLC after the White House, but I actually really love the idea and hope it returns in PAYDAY 3.
A common criticism of the story of this game is how the gang outside of the main 5-6 + a wild card (usually Sydney) tends to basically pop out of existence shortly after being introduced because they never canonically...do anything, really.
Sokol helped with Golden Grin and left pretty much, Rust sold his secrets to The Elephant and then never helped again, etc. This side story showing us what the other ~15 people in the gang are doing while the A-Team are busy is great for that reason, it lets EVERY heister on the team (minus maybe licensed heisters since those aren't easy to just drop in) actually do important things for the group and lets them have heists in interesting locations more often.
I'd love to see this idea expanded on in PD3, instead of having the side campaign take the full spotlight after the main campaign ends, alternate between the main plot and side jobs to keep the gang afloat with a steady flow of capital. It might not matter to most people since you play who you want in-game regardless but I really enjoy it personally.

HARMS is a video exploration of the texts of Daniil Harms led by Gregory Marza with the friendly collaboration of the actor Raphaël Almosni. The first finalized videos will be posted online in September 2019.
Harms is a Russian writer of the 30s (he basically wrote between 32 and 38). He embodies the hinge between the avant-gardes and the Absurdist Fictions.
It’s incisive, funny, sad, scathing.

On a special transformation to a non-inertial, radially rigid reference frame
(1) Bashkir State Pedagogical University, ul. Oktyabr'skoi Revoliutsii 3-a, Ufa, 450077, Russia
We discuss the conditions under which a body, moving non-inertially in Minkowski space, can preserve its size. Under these conditions, using a series expansion of the generalized Lorentz transformation, we find a coordinate transformation connecting the laboratory inertial reference frame S and the rigid non-inertial reference frame s which moves without its own rotation with respect to S. Direct consequences of this transformation are: (a) desynchronization, in system s, of the coordinate clocks of s which were previously synchronized in S, and (b) a kinematic contraction of a ruler of system s observed in S. We also consider the dependence of the transformation vector parameter on the proper coordinates of s.

Our school follows the Australian Government mandate of a curriculum that is to be implemented Australia-wide. This will enable a more consistent approach to education for students across the country and in particular for those students moving states. Victorian Curriculum uses an eleven level structure to reflect the design of the new Australian Curriculum whilst retaining Victorian priorities and approaches to teaching and learning.
Victorian Curriculum incorporates the Australian Curriculum F-10 for English, Mathematics, History and Science within the curriculum framework first developed for the Victorian Essential Learning Standards (VELS). All other curriculum areas will be gradually implemented over the next few years, and until that happens, the curriculum will be based on the recent Victorian Educational Learning Standards (VELS).
Victorian Curriculum takes into account the developmental stages of learning young people experience at school. Whilst student learning is a continuum and different students develop at different rates, they broadly progress though three stage of learning.

A short post as a bit of promotion for Corbyn Island, my adaptation of Marivaux’s L’Ile des Esclaves, which I’ve talked about on here before. Well, previously it was just an idea and a little side project to keep me occupied while doing some long commutes (you can read about it here). Now it’s happening!
Rehearsals have started, the costumes are coming together, tech stuff is being dealt with, we have a confirmed venue and tickets are available. And take a look at that poster! My mate Nick Kobyluch has done us proud.
If you’re interested in coming go to the Crouch End Festival website. Our venue is the Great Northern Railway Tavern, fresh from a spanking refurb and serving great food and beer to the north London public. What’s more, tickets are free and you get to see my friend Gemma’s very funny Vibrantly Lieu as part of the package.

You disappear in June, leaving a dent
in my breath. Your rosewood fragrance lingers
while I stare at empty frames. To inhale
nothing is its own religion, a pale addiction
to blank walls, arms reaching aimlessly in bed.
My body becomes the widow of my brain.
Moods fall like rain. Yesterday you were
water; hailstorms on my face,
cyclones on the ocean. Today you are space.
Today I take my first step forward.
The step I should have taken years ago
to own my fate. For grit is my grace,
a fitting intoxicant, my oxygen forgotten
and not what you want in your days.
Years later you return, thin as a cry,
smelling of a tangled life. Your arms full of lilies
as if I were dead. I bed your secret mouth
wearing dimly scented blue. The only shade
I know of you. Afterwards, while you sleep
for days, I remove your shadow,
pin it to my wall like a salt-stained sepia
photograph. My love, we are beautiful
storm-torn weeds, even before you leave again. | <urn:uuid:7bc14e91-f289-4190-839f-bd0a168c6cd7> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://bangalorereview.com/2021/01/you-disappear-in-june/ | 2022-01-25T20:57:11Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304872.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125190255-20220125220255-00718.warc.gz | en | 0.911508 | 252 |
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal
Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has a multitude of uses in biomedical imaging due to its ability to discern ultrastructure morphology at the nanometer scale. Through its ability to directly visualize virus particles, TEM has for several decades been an invaluable tool in the virologist’s toolbox. As applied to HIV-1 research, TEM is critical to evaluate activities of inhibitors that block the maturation and morphogenesis steps of the virus lifecycle. However, both the preparation and analysis of TEM micrographs requires time consuming manual labor. Through the dedicated use of computer vision frameworks and machine learning techniques, we have developed a convolutional neural network backbone of a two-stage Region Based Convolutional Neural Network (RCNN) capable of identifying, segmenting and classifying HIV-1 virions at different stages of maturation and morphogenesis. Our results outperformed common RCNN backbones, achieving 80.0% mean Average Precision on a diverse set of micrographs comprising different experimental samples and magnifications. We expect that this tool will be of interest to a broad range of researchers. | <urn:uuid:42e5380c-b6cc-4ab1-8c7e-c6c31e412dcf> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://biophysics.chem.udel.edu/deep-learning-situ-classification-hiv-1-virion-morphology | 2022-01-25T20:43:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304872.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125190255-20220125220255-00718.warc.gz | en | 0.884879 | 270 |
South Florida truly is an international melting pot, and these new Scott Patterson client’s in the video are from six different nationalities including France, Nicaragua, Canada, Greece, Italy and of course, the USA. This video was shot with our client’s friends and family while they were visiting their new waterfront property in the Hollywood Lakes area in Hollywood, FL. The other clients purchased a waterfront Hallandale property in the Hallandale gated waterfront community of Golden Isles that they plan to totally remodel. Combined, these international buyers purchased 3 South Florida properties valued at almost $5 million.
It’s All the Buzz of the Real Estate Experts in South Florida
All the buzz here in the South Florida real estate community is about whether I should attend the Inman Real Estate Connect that takes place in a few weeks in San Francisco. The other day my EWM buddy and South Beach Realtor, Kevin Tomlinson told me I should go. Even my real estate marketing partners at Dakno told me it’s the place to be to learn all the last on Internet marketing strategies and blogging tips. Based on the advice of Brad Carroll with Dakno Marketing, Crystal Coast Real Estate Blogger and Dakno associate Bobby Carroll, Kevin T. and EWM COO Beth Butler – San Francisco here I come!
Lookout Aventura, Hollywood, Hallandale, and Golden Beach Real Estate Markets – I’m Going to Connect!
I look forward to meeting with my peers and learning about the latest and greatest technology and issues in our industry as well as visiting beautiful San Francisco! I already have locked in my place to hear our own Beth Butler of EWM when she speaks at the conference. Plus, this is a great opportunity to connect with many of the top Blogging Realtors throughout the country and bring back many fresh ideas to my real estate markets in Aventura, Golden Beach, Hallandale and Hollywood.
See you in San Francisco!
Fort Lauderdale Waerfront Property Fetches $15.5 Million
A mere 5 miles north of Hollywood, Hollywood Lakes and 6 miles from Hallandale (Golden Isles) & Golden Beach, lies the highest priced recently sold property in Fort Lauderdale (Broward County). Fetching $15.5 million, this 16,000 square foot waterfront mansion on Harbor Beach was supposedly purchased by a European buyer one publication called a “Bill Gates type” individual.
Right before picking up a Buyer to show real estate here in South Florida, I always stop by The Aventura’s Finest Car Wash to have my car presentable for my clients. I also find it’s the best car wash around and it’s a great place to meet potential Buyers and/or Sellers that are looking to buy and/or sell real estate in the surround areas of: Aventura, Golden Beach, Sunny Isles, Hallandale (Golden Isles) and Hollywood Florida.
Aventura Finest Car Wash has two locations: Harbour Center and at The Aventura Mall. The second location is very convenient due to the fact it is located in the Aventura Mall so you can shop while your car is being washed. The demographics of The City of Aventura are high especially due to all the wealthy international buyers and all the affluent people that already live here. By the way, The Aventura Mall just got named as the highest producing mall in the state of Florida due to the fact it draws many international shoppers. You must experience a car wash at The Aventura Finest Car Wash!
Here is an aerial photo I took during a helicopter tour of Golden Isles in Hallandale Florida. In a previous post I generated a site map of Golden Isles and think this provides a different perspective for a South Florida buyer who would like to better understand this deep water community.
Golden Isles Location
Golden Isles is just 20 minutes to ocean access via the Intracoastal Waterway and Haulover Inlet. As a boater myself I have found there are few waterfront communities that provide a vessel with ocean access, protection from high winds and storms, deep water and wide canals like this community. Also you are just minutes from Aventura and the Hollywood-Fort Lauderdale International Airport.
Aventura Real Estate News
Aventura Lakes began construction of their new guard house on the north side of the community on N.E. 213th Street across from Gulfstream park. The new guard house was constructed only for the use of the Aventura Lakes homeowners as guests will still need to enter on the south side. The new manned guard house was designed to improve and relieve some of the traffic flow from the guard house in the south side of the community on 207th Street. The City of Aventura welcomed the improvement.

South Florida Short Sales – The Sellers side:
- Be patient, diligent, organized and persistent
- Whatever you do, do NOT avoid your lender. Be frank with them about your situation
- Keep open lines of communication with your listing agent and real estate attorney as they will play key roles in moving the process along
- Gather the following:
- Last 2 years Tax returns
- Copies of most recent Bank Statements for all your accounts (3 months to be safe), proof of income and assets
- Write a Hardship Letter, a letter explaining the reason behind your current financial situation with supporting documents such as medical bills, death certificate, divorce decree, etc.
- Give your lender authorization to speak with your Realtor and Aventura real estate attorney
- Execute a sales contract on your South Florida property (Most important part of a short sale)
- Have your attorney prepare an Estimate of Closing Costs in the form of a HUD 1
- You are now ready to send a complete package to your lender with all of the above mentioned. (There is no such thing as a pre-approved “short sale”, if there is no sales contract there is nothing to discuss)
Short Sales in South Florida – The Buyers side:
- Be patient, diligent, organized, persistent and ready to close.
- Keep open lines of communication with your Realtor and attorney as they will play key roles in moving the process along.
- Present a clean typed out offer with no financing contingency and with all the required addendum’s. Make the best and strongest offer you can make. Remember there are multi-levels of approvals and conditions are usually required.
- Have your attorney review the contract and estimated HUD prepared by the Sellers attorney.
- Have a licensed Home inspector inspect the subject property.
- Have your Realtor provide a letter outlining your strengths as a Buyer and furnish data concerning current market conditions.
Short Selling A Home In South Florida – Make Sure It’s Complete
It is very important to send a complete package because missing information will delay the processing of your request. Keep in mind that lenders are overwhelmed and they look at thousand of files and will only grasp the packages that look well put together and are likely to close. You have to make a strong case by having your Realtor submit a comparative market analysis including market conditions. Remember Lenders are not in the business to own real estate.
Test Heading Area
Golden Isles in Hallandale Florida is a gated deep waterfront single family home community with ocean access and no fixed bridges. There are approximately 304 properties within the gates of this Broward County community with 99% of the properties on the water and only 5 homes on dry lots. A few great notable points of Golden Isles are: it’s a protected waterfront community (protection for your vessel during storms and high winds), all of the canals are wide and deep enough for about any vessel that can be moored on any of its lots, ocean access is just 15 minutes away to the south at The Haulover Inlet and 45 minutes to Port Everglades Inlet to the north.
Golden Isles is right on the Broward/Miami-Dade County line and right across from Golden Beach Florida. As home prices in Golden Beach soar, Golden Isles has become more attractive although it might not be as exclusive or have the name recognition of Golden Beach.
As a boat owner, one of the advantages of Golden Isles is that like I said it’s on deep water allowing for larger boats unlike Golden Beach which has numerous of its waterfront properties sitting on very shallow water and does not allow for boats that draw as little as 4 feet.
In my opinion, Golden Isles is one of South Florida’s premier deep waterfront communities whether you just want to live on the water, are a boat owner or both. Golden Isles is minutes from Aventura, Bal Harbour and the Hollywood-Fort Lauderdale International Airport, right in the center of both Market’s of Miami-Dade & Fort Lauderdale.
I Recently just sold Villa 4 at the famous historic Miami Beach Bath Club for 6.7 million on April 28th, 2008 to a couple from Pennsylvania. There are only six villas at the Bath Club and they are the only oceanfront residences on Miami Beach.
The Bath Club of Miami Beach first opened its doors in 1926, it was the place to be and be seen. The Bath Club was redeveloped by Don Peebles and offers direct oceanfront living. The Bath Club is blending the old with the new, with six single family oceanfront villas, 107 exclusive condo units and offers all the amenities of a five-star hotel located minutes from the heart of Miami Beach.
Here is one of the aerials I took of Golden Beach while photographing different market areas and listings via helicopter.
Golden Beach Florida sits on 1.8 miles along the northern most portion of Ocean Blvd (State Road A1A) at the Miami-Dade/ Broward County line in South Florida. This exclusive town is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the East, the Intracoastal Waterway to the West, and the coastal cities/communities of Hallandale Beach (Golden Isles) to the North and Sunny Isles Beach to the South. Also, Golden Beach is situated between both Miami (Miami Beach) and Ft. Lauderdale and minutes to The Shoppes of Bal Harbour.
The History of Golden Beach
Golden Beach Florida was incorporated in 1929 and has become one of the most desirable places to live in South Florida. One of the most recent purchases was Ricky Martin, who purchased 641 Ocean Blvd for $17,500,000… This small quiet community has maintained its family lifestyle in a mile-long sanctuary of 370 single-family homes that are mostly located on the Intracoastal and its waterways or directly on the Atlantic Ocean. The Town Charter protects Golden Beach from commercial activity of any kind and forbids the construction of high rise condominiums that saturate so many beach front communities in South Florida. A beautiful mile and one-eighth of private beach with a historic beach Pavilion, 3 parks, and a committed sense of community have attracted talented, discerning residents from all over the world to this idyllic town located only 18 miles from Miami International Airport and 15 miles from Ft. Lauderdale International and Port Everglades.
Golden Beach provides security through its own Police Department. The Building and Zoning Department, Finance and Administrative Department, and the Public Works Department provide other services.

CryptPad was designed with a view that privacy should be default and cryptography should be invisible. In order to do this, we made use of the web-app model so people could just go to cryptpad.fr and immediately begin using the app, no installation necessary. However, this model has a known flaw, the server can decide what client-side code it will send to any given user, allowing a compromized server to serve code with a back-door vulnerability.
Insecure, some.website can serve you anything:
Secure, only one possible script can be sent by some.website or else the web browser will throw an error and refuse to run the script:
It contains a JSON tree which mirrors the files that are part of the CryptPad codebase and the hashes of the files for the Subresource Integrity check. Once the
version.txt is loaded using a file called
sboot.js. The hash of
sboot.js was included directly into the html files which are cached, so
sboot.js can never be changed at all.
First, the browser loads the html file, the html file contains a single script tag loading
There is a custom attribute called
sboot.js gets loaded, it downloads and then verifies
version.txt which is a signed message containing the CryptPad version number and the hash of
manifest.js. The content that is signed looks something like this:
The version number (85) is not the CryptPad version but rather an auto-incrementing number which is stored in the browser localStorage and prevents the server from downgrading the version of CryptPad. After the signature/version check completes successfully,
manifest.js like the following:
You will notice that the hash is used also in the URL of
manifest.js, this allows the server to signal that the files are immutable and can be cached by the browser forever which makes CryptPad load faster next time.
sboot.js finds the hash of
require.js in the manifest and then manually loads
require.js in the same way. Once
require.js is loaded,
sboot.js configures require to use the hashes from the manifest for every file it loads, then it uses require to load
This file is not needed for security, but unlike
sboot.js, it can easily be changed from release to release and it contains any code which should be run before the main CryptPad code. Things such as additional requirejs configuration and shims for missing browser APIs are placed here. After
boot2.js is complete, it reads the
data-bootload attribute from the html file and invokes require to load that.
While this system provides excellent security, it is still not perfect. If the root html file is compromized then it can alter the chain of trust, or scrap it completely. With a very long cache header, the browser will store the html file essentially forever, but if the user triggers a hard reload with the F5 key, then the cache will be flushed.
The root html file can be signed using pgp and then verified using the signed pages chrome extension. But signed pages is not able to prevent the loading of the website even if the signature is invalid and it only takes 1 second for the keys in localStorage to be leaked.
If the root html file was generated by the server each load, it could contain a secret key which is used to encrypt the keys in the localStorage, thus rendering them unusable if the html file is re-loaded, and meaning that the user must re-enter their password and would then be able to see that the signature on the html file is invalid, however unless signed pages can ignore the key inside of the html file when verifying the signature, it would have to be re-signed every time, pushing the pgp key onto the server, which we are worried about being compromized. | <urn:uuid:7614f9c5-ecea-4158-9916-6410d7768c4c> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://blog.cryptpad.org/2018/06/15/Signing-CryptPad/ | 2022-01-25T20:28:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304872.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125190255-20220125220255-00718.warc.gz | en | 0.925549 | 1,532 |
Don’t let money get in the way of your goals. Finance to automate your facility for enhanced productivity.
Small manufacturers looking to automate their production lines may hesitate due to financial concerns.
These limitations may seem insurmountable at first, but financing eases the burden by making automation accessible with low monthly payments.
Are you one of those manufacturers? Learn more about the benefits of financing industrial equipment below to let go of fear and jump into growth.
Financing industrial manufacturing equipment
Financing versus buying
Financing is the process of applying for a monthly payment plan with payments that are lower than the original lump sum of the product.
Buying outright might make sense in some cases. For example, purchasing several $500 Sew Eurodrive MDV60A0055-5A3-4-00 Drive Inventors in one payment may make sense for mid-sized manufacturers who have the revenue to support that purchase.
Other smaller businesses may struggle to add the equipment they need to their facility due to budget constraints, so they may consider financing instead.
Benefits of financing
Financing is beneficial to manufacturers of all sizes, phases, and industries.
- Low monthly payments: Financing offers lower payments, making industrial automation more accessible for everyone.
- Flexibility: With the ability to finance, manufacturers have greater flexibility in their budget to acquire the equipment they need.
- Immediate growth capabilities: Manufacturers don’t have to wait until they reach certain profitability before they expand. Financing allows them to purchase industrial robots and work cells so they can start growing sooner.
- Enhanced productivity: Finally, financing equipment enhances productivity because it quickly adds equipment to production that improves throughput and capacity.
Drawbacks of financing
As long as you are purchasing the right equipment, there aren’t many drawbacks to financing.
One downside may be that your purchase is extended across several months rather than at one time, which may make tracking the payments difficult.
However, as long as your budget is in line and orderly, you shouldn’t have to worry about missing a payment.

WordPress harbors almost 90% of the websites managed and controlled by all smart and large businesses in the world. Such a huge amount of data-driven websites would often require a large amount of maintenance in all its categorized sections to make the website run smoothly and without any problems. To facilitate a faster and a responsive website that delivers the rapid retort to the instructions received, we have compiled a list of how to reduce WordPress website maintenance and cut it back to roughly 70%
Table of content
Why Do WordPress Websites Require Maintenance?
WordPress websites might often require maintenance and the process can be quite cumbersome because the admin had to find the root cause of the problem and understand why the website is experiencing certain lags and issues.
Sometimes finding that cause can be as easy as upgrading recently installed extensions and plugins, but sometimes it can be hard as certain plugins may behave abnormally and may have some buggy variants that are cooperating with the website’s overall health.
In such cases, a WordPress admin is supposed to keep a random and a more thorough check on all the components of his website and keep them more updated to make a website improve its functionality naturally. Moreover, a buggy plugin can contaminate other prospects of a website and can hinder other smooth transitional sections, so removing or uninstalling the plugin and finding a compatible alternative can be the solution for this growing concern.
But sometimes, such causes can extend to extreme levels and cause many other issues with WordPress that can wreak havoc on the existing content of the website and cause frequent lag and loading issues. Let’s investigate these causes further to derive a resourceful conclusion later:
Non-Compatible Extensions With Frequent Update Clash
The admin might install certain apps or plugins/themes on a WP website that are not compatible with the initial coding guidelines of WP which can often result in making a website crash.
Other causes may include the organic updates that these extensions and plugins get from their developers to make their product work seamlessly fine, but it has been noticed that sometimes these updates can clash with one another and make a website crash down more often than ever. Java script clash or perhaps a PHP difference between extensions can cause such errors and make a website go down temporarily.
Causing White Screen Of Death
Metaphorically, This phrase is used in the world of WP to denote the situation when the WordPress Websites becomes completely inaccessible and blank out. It can become frustrating because the website does not even let the admin access the backend to configure settings and data.
This problem can be caused due to many issues such as a bad plugin, an existing buggy file, a recent file transfer, or a memory issue.
Another mainstream problem that websites often encounter is the problem related to the security patches of a website. Certain malicious/malware plugins or themes installed on the website can make a website behave abnormally and cause frequent meltdowns in the form of a crash or temporary down situations.
Overwhelming Of Database
Commonly, when a plugin or a theme is deleted from the main website, it usually leaves residue files or contents in the database which often go unnoticed until they cause a major uproar on the website by making it crash. Similarly, these files along with spam content and attachments can lead to a seriously overwhelmed database which can then make a website crash or go down.
Here’s How You Can Reduce WordPress Website Maintenance
Being Self Sufficient In Tracking Issues
One of the primary ways through which a website admin can organically reduce this frequent meltdown and crashes is via self-administration. When an error is encountered a website, admin should immediately address it before it makes the crash down worse or calls for a white screen of death where accessing basic settings would become extremely difficult.
It would be an economic approach where the admin knows the ins and outs of a website and can maneuver these issues creeping up from time to time with a speedy response and being extra careful when downloading or installing plugins and data on their website.
Hiring A Professional To Treat WP Websites Technical Issues
For websites that are generally small and medium-sized can often treat their technical issues with ease and troubleshoot the problems themselves. While large conglomerates and organizations that are highly dependent on the website for revenue generation cannot afford to have these periodic crashes as this can result in significant loss of business and money.
Therefore the only chance they have to fix these grave issues or hazards that come with an online website is to hire a technical development that is well versed with the WordPress core functions and standard coding norms to understand and manage the hidden and underlying issues of the website.
- These professionals will ensure systematic updates of plugins and themes to keep the WP website functional
- They will also monitor security patches and any malicious activity on the website
- Ensure regular backups to keep track of system settings
- Scanning for viruses and malware
- These professionals will also scan for potential threats and errors by tracing system files.
Web bug errors can be extremely difficult to address and can make a website get stuck without any initial backups and solutions. To make the most out of the website experience, having concrete solutions to problems arising due to non-compatible software and plugins can be resolved quickly if responses with smart solutions and care.

Look, I see why Peter Jackson did it. Why he rereleased, in December of final 12 months, his Lord of the Rings trilogy, together with The Nasty Hobbitses—as I prefer to name them, channeling Gollum—in so-called “4K Extremely HD” (a redundancy). It’s a really Twenty first-century-filmmaker factor to do, this remastering enterprise. Enrich the colours, sharpen the pictures, and your movies maintain up down by means of the ages. It’s virtually an ethical obligation, a query of readability, of being clear, and in case you can make clear Legolas by pumping an additional 10 million pixels into his excellent Elven pores, which comes out to one thing like 100 billion photons, all twinkling immortally by means of the cosmic sweep of spacetime, why then, shouldn’t you?
If there’s something people demand on this life, it’s that. Higher readability. Simply communicate clearly, you scream—at politicians, at therapists, at spouses. Additionally at me, for writing such a muddy first paragraph. God, it truly is a large number. Sinful, even, so wordy and wasteful. If readability, like its cousin cleanliness, is certainly subsequent to godliness—and it’s; the phrase, within the unique Center English, meant “glory, divine splendor”—then to be unclear is to be unethical. Or un-optical, because it had been, since optics are the brand new ethics, not less than in company America, the place all they do is search readability on this, visibility into that. I imply, may I be any extra clear?
Greater than doubtless, so let me strive once more. Right here’s how I ought to have began this essay: In 2020, everyone went slightly bit blind.
As a result of that was Covid for you, in a way: an incredible, obvious disaster of seeing. Caught inside, individuals couldn’t see as they had been used to seeing. They couldn’t see their family and friends, besides on screens. They couldn’t see films or exhibits or performs, besides on screens. They usually couldn’t see when the disaster would finish, not even on screens. If this simulation referred to as actuality was crackling alongside in hi-def within the Earlier than Instances, it dropped to one thing like normal definition in 2020, went all glitchy and grainy. Sorry, this connection stinks.
As the surface world blurred, although, the within world up-rezzed. Screens had been all that remained, so that they bought sharper, prettier, denser, clearer. Every thing you’d suppose had a record-breaking 12 months in gross sales, did: big-screen TVs, with their UHDs and HDRs; iPhone 12s, with their OLED shows and 5G speeds; Oculus Quest 2s, now with 50 p.c extra pixels. Salvation can be achieved by means of readability, and there was no decision higher suited to the instances than one thing referred to as 4K.
Not a brand new normal, after all; it started to point out up within the mid-2010s. However “cocooning at residence” in the course of the pandemic, as one trade exec put it, “has accelerated curiosity in 4K.” Let’s recast the metaphor: HD was the caterpillar, and 4K the butterfly, bursting forth from its Covid chrysalis and crystallizing leisure at quadruple the pixel density. The colours had been dazzling, a really heightened show. Classics like Lawrence of Arabia and the Hitchcock assortment all the way in which down to each final Rambo and Resident Evil had been 4K’d in 2020, to not point out video video games, TV exhibits, and High Gun besides. Binge-watchers had been blind; now, they might see. | <urn:uuid:5811f328-2636-400c-9a33-27254d248d1e> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://boatshrinkwrapsolutions.com/the-no-good-very-nasty-remastering-of-the-lord-of-the-rings/ | 2022-01-25T20:03:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304872.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125190255-20220125220255-00718.warc.gz | en | 0.963672 | 850 |

When it comes to Marcel Pagnol (1895-1974) and The Brady Bunch (1969-1974), I’m strictly a novice. The Brady Bunch ran on prime time on ABC when I was living in Paris, but even if I’d been in the United States I would have found other things to do with my Friday nights; the show obviously made its deepest imprint on the preteens who had to stay home. I never saw any Pagnol movies during that period either: my French wasn’t fluent enough for me to follow the Provencal patois of the dialogue without subtitles, and anyway, the standard line on Pagnol’s movies back then was that they were “canned theater.” (Pagnol himself was the main culprit in fostering this impression: “Film is the art of imprinting, fixing, and diffusing theater,” he wrote in 1933.)
After I returned to the States I made a stab at catching up with Pagnol via two or three scratchy 16-millimeter prints–Cesar and The Baker’s Wife are the only two I can recall–which left little impression. I made no attempt at all to acquaint myself with The Brady Bunch, despite many TV reruns, until I caught a couple of episodes on TBS shortly after seeing The Brady Bunch Movie.
But even though I’m not an expert on Pagnol or Angele (1934)–commonly regarded as his greatest film, playing this Saturday in a beautiful new 35-millimeter print during Facets Multimedia’s long-overdue Pagnol retrospective–or on The Brady Bunch Movie, still playing commercially all over town, these very different films offer fruitful comparisons. Released 61 years apart, they are both highly popular populist entertainments about the way a particular group of people in a particular closed environment live and behave, and together they provide a good many clues about how popular entertainment has changed during those six decades. Furthermore, it’s curious that The Brady Bunch Movie–a product of my own culture and time and in my native language–strikes me as an esoteric object, an artifact from another planet, while Angele–made in an unfamiliar language about an unfamiliar period and culture–communicates to me fully and directly. Obviously this won’t be everyone’s experience, but I can’t believe that my feeling is unique either. To organize my thoughts about movies that are at once so similar and so different, I’ve grouped my impressions in three categories.
Nationality/regionalism. In most people’s minds, Angele will be as quintessentially French as The Brady Bunch Movie is quintessentially American, but in each this essence is framed and communicated very differently. In the 50s the late Andre Bazin noted that “together with La Fontaine, Cocteau, and Jean-Paul Sartre, Pagnol completes the average American’s ideal French Academy,” and even recently four French movies based on Pagnol material (Jean de Florette, Manon of the Springs, My Father’s Glory, and My Mother’s Castle) have been enormously successful. But as Bazin went on to say, “Pagnol paradoxically owes his international reputation above all to the regionalism of his work.” The local feeling of Pagnol films–chiefly set in Provence and steeped in the precise details of life in southern France–is what makes them seem so French.
Angele is one of Pagnol’s rare adaptations of others’ work, loosely based on Un de Baumugnes, a novel by Provencal writer Jean Giono. The story is fairly elementary: a farmer’s daughter named Angele (Orane Demazis) gets lured away to Marseilles by a fast-talking pimp (Andrex). Some time later a loyal farmhand, Saturnin (Fernandel), goes looking for her and finds her working as a prostitute, with an illegitimate child; all she knows about the long-gone father is that he was a sailor “from the north” who didn’t speak French. Saturnin brings her back to the farm, where her disgraced father (Henri Poupon) hides her and her infant in the barn, saying, “I’m offering you not a home, but a hideout.” Eventually she’s saved by Albin (Jean Servais), a principled mountain peasant who knows about her past but is willing to overlook it, and the remaining drama consists of his efforts to convince her father to let him marry her. The “Frenchness” of the story resides largely in the fully realized details of everyday life in rural Provence: the men’s baggy trousers and striped shirts, the women’s isolation and lack of freedom, the rocky hills, the fixed moral codes, the casual social interactions, the behavioral quirks (such as Saturnin polishing his spoon on his jacket sleeve with a horsey grin as he sits down to a farmhouse meal), the distinctive speech patterns, and so on.
Pagnol was first a very successful playwright in Paris’s boulevard theaters, then formed an independent film production company in his native Provence after the beginning of talkies. What made Angele, his fourth solo feature, especially innovative was that it was shot exclusively in natural locations, in direct sound, without any recourse to studio facilities (though Pagnol had established a studio of his own by that time in Marseilles); he even shot the Marseilles brothel scenes in the same remote Provencal farmhouse that provided most of the other interiors. And the bustling street scenes in 30s Marseilles followed by Pagnol’s gracefully moving camera have a very exciting vitality and presence, worlds apart from “canned theater.” Angele has been called the first neorealist film, despite the fact that it uses only professional stage and vaudeville actors, because the natural surroundings are so vivid and play such an integral role in the film. Much of the film’s Frenchness, in other words, is France itself.
The Brady Bunch Movie has its own regional qualities, though whether the “region” is southern California or American television is worth pondering. At the beginning the movie takes great pains to establish the setting as contemporary Hollywood, but once we’re reintroduced to the Bradys and their peculiarly insulated 70s world, the sense of an actual physical location becomes increasingly attenuated. Since most of the comedy is based on the premise that the original Brady family have been preserved as if in formaldehyde while the fashions, folkways, and assumptions of the world around them have radically changed, the movie takes great care to reproduce the look and feel of the original show, minus the laugh tracks and all the original actors: interiors and exteriors alike are as overlit as Bavarian beer commercials, and even the show’s flip-flopping transitions between sequences are revived.
But because the world of 90s Hollywood is as stylized here as the Brady domicile, the movie gives very little sense of being set in a particular place and time, whether the 70s or the present–unless, that is, we accept the world of American TV over the past quarter of a century as a spatiotemporal place, as the movie does. (Indeed, as much of the planet does–the movie’s potential audience is both very broad and very narrow: it includes everyone who’s ever watched The Brady Bunch on TV but excludes everyone who hasn’t.) The Bradys’ AstroTurf lawn and Formica furnishings are no more artificial and crude than the supposed “real” world of 90s Hollywood: according to this movie, such things as lesbianism and high crime rates are the main facts of 90s life; of course lesbians and crime were around in the 70s but didn’t appear much in 70s sitcoms, so their “reality” hasn’t been verified until recently. Apart from a few cellular phones and a metal detector in a high school, most of what this feature reveals about the 90s is every bit as circumscribed as what the TV show revealed about the 70s. (In this respect the movie is a far cry from the Rip Van Winkle-ish satire of Robert Altman’s The Long Goodbye, which planted a noble 40s Philip Marlowe in a cynical 70s Hollywood–though even Altman and his writers didn’t sustain the conceit.)
Bear in mind that the original squeaky-clean Bradys flourished during the height of the Vietnam war and the most strident final phases of the counterculture, which suggests that the denial of contemporary reality in this movie parallels the show’s denial during the 70s. But the film’s peculiar mixture of contempt and affection for the Bradys doesn’t offer a clear or fixed vantage point for a coherent satirical attack on the 70s or the 90s. (A rougher version of the same confused mixture can be found in the obscene, incestuous sitcom in Natural Born Killers, “I Love Mallory,” this time with a laugh track.) It’s clear that, regardless of how they value the movie, some audience members in their 30s or younger find a charge in it that’s unavailable to older viewers–a charge that’s undoubtedly related to their disillusionment about growing older. (“Put on your Sunday best, kids, we’re going to Sears,” seems one of the movie’s key lines in this respect.)
The fact that today the Bradys are hopelessly out of fashion seems the focus of the humor and anxiety, but this movie doesn’t come close to articulating the point that the Bradys were no less hopelessly in fashion in the 70s. In fact, even in the 70s the Bradys were both in and out of fashion, and judging by the show’s countless spin-offs–an early-70s Saturday-morning cartoon series (The Brady Kids), a 1977 variety show (The Brady Bunch Hour), a 1981 television sequel series (The Brady Brides), countless trivia books, and Chicago’s own The Real Live Brady Bunch, which has toured nationally and internationally–they have been triumphantly in and out of fashion ever since. Yet undoubtedly their appeal throughout the years has been as crazy mirrors for the audience, and the passage of time has only further displaced the show’s characters in favor of its true subject, its viewers.
To me, as one outside this loop, The Brady Bunch Movie resembles nothing so much as a hate letter to America–a more extreme version of the assault on middle-class glibness and inertia found in W.C. Fields comedies of the 40s, but with one curious difference: the rebellious and bilious Fields character is no longer on-screen but out somewhere in the audience, railing against the show and all it represents. Intertwined with this hatred is a nostalgic recognition that, despite its mendacity, The Brady Bunch is who we are and what we’ve been; like TV itself, it’s all we’ve got. That’s perhaps what’s most American of all about the movie, and it’ll be interesting to see whether this quality makes it suitable for export.
Characters. Both Angele and The Brady Bunch Movie disperse their focus across all the central characters. There’s no hero in either movie, just lots of crisscrossing intrigues between various factions; what matters most in both is the preservation of the family and the community, not the triumph of any one individual.
Sherwood Schwartz–the producer of the original Brady Bunch and coproducer of the movie–has said that his inspiration for the TV show was, first, a newspaper report that 30 percent of all marriages included a child or children from a former marriage and, second, a story from his daughter about a friend in junior high who had to decide whether to give a ticket to the school play to his mother or his new stepfather. The eight Bradys are a mother and her three daughters from a previous marriage and a father and his three sons from a previous marriage–a combo that turns the household into two armed camps usually split by gender, though in many disputes Alice the maid serves as tiebreaker and moral arbiter. The only other significant characters in the movie were mentioned on the original show but never seen: next-door neighbors Mr. and Mrs. Ditmeyer (Michael McKean and Jean Smart). He’s an evil real estate salesman conniving to make the Bradys sell their house so a mini-mall can be built on their block, and she’s a lush who flirts with the Brady males.
The world of Angele is more profoundly patriarchal. There are only two women of any significance, the eponymous heroine and her mother, and except for Angele’s decisions to flee Marseilles, return to the farm, and accept Albin as a husband, all decisions are made by the menfolk: the pimp, Angele’s father, Saturnin, Albin, and Amedee (a geezer who’s Albin’s friend, roommate, and accomplice). But the characters in Angele are split more by social propriety than by gender–the question of what to do about Angele, a once-dutiful farmer’s daughter who’s come home in disgrace. One can’t really speak of armed camps here despite the father’s recalcitrance, because in this rural universe everyone knows everyone else’s business and everyone talks to everyone else about it. What lingers most in the mind about these country folk is their sincerity, earnestness, and integrity and the patient way they iron out their differences, a kind of firmness that Pagnol unpatronizingly appreciates and understands without ever idealizing. There are no villains in this universe and, even more unexpected, very little sentimentality (a quality that is allegedly more prominent in some of Pagnol’s other movies).
Dimensions and durations. The Brady Bunch Movie resolves the whole mini-mall problem–fostered by the fact that all the Bradys’ neighbors have already sold their homes, while the Bradys have recently discovered that they owe $20,000 in back property taxes–virtually by fiat rather than through any ingenuity of plot construction. But the family conflict in Angele is worked through carefully and honestly, point by point, without the constricting rhythms of sound bites and punch lines. Of course the TV format necessitates defining and resolving difficulties within the tight segments created by commercial breaks, a fact the movie chooses to flaunt as camp. The assumption is that TV is by definition fake and unimportant, though nothing else is sufficiently real or important to be offered in its place; maybe we don’t know who we are, but at least we know who the Bradys are, and since our very lives are intertwined with theirs, they automatically have a resonance of a very special kind.
Pagnol certainly knows who his characters are, and much of the relaxed density of Angele derives from that intimate knowledge. (Probably the only other filmmaker who knows his characters, their settings, and their life-styles as thoroughly is Yasujiro Ozu.) Part of what Pagnol knows about them is that they’re long-winded; circumlocutions and digressions are the order of the day, a sort of lazy, southern speech that seems to echo the rises and declivities of the surrounding terrain. To go anywhere in this countryside, it seems, you have to walk or ride up and then down again, around and about–there are no straight lines here, and Pagnol’s dialogue and plot, unrestricted by the need for commercial breaks, are similarly meandering.
According to the film’s sound engineer, the original rough cut of Angele lasted eight hours; the final version runs 132 minutes despite the slender plot. The original length of Pagnol’s 1952 version of Manon of the Springs (a film regrettably missing from the retrospective at Facets) was five or six hours; the distributors reduced it to slightly over three. As Bazin put it, “To ask Proust to write A la recherche du temps perdu in 200 pages would be senseless. For quite different but no less imperative reasons Pagnol could not tell the story of Manon des sources in less than four or five hours, not because essential things take place, but because it’s ridiculous to stop the storyteller before the thousand and first night.”
Which is another way of saying that Angele rambles, but always with a purpose; every time the plot or characters dawdle, the real world leaks through in all its wonder. Pagnol’s people have lots of air around them, and the sun splashes their faces and the rocky countryside like a glittering paintbrush so that the light exuberantly overflows the borders of every frame. One emerges gratefully drenched in the warmth of these people, this time, and these places. | <urn:uuid:6271c69e-7c95-4a37-b0d5-3ed6adf06305> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://chicagoreader.com/film/tv-and-not-tv/ | 2022-01-25T21:06:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304872.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125190255-20220125220255-00718.warc.gz | en | 0.959873 | 3,791 |
Growing Out Your Bangs with Joachim Trier
Here’s a recipe: take two conventionally attractive people (add a third to spice it up a bit), craft a charming depiction of their fateful first encounter, have them drink chilled chardonnay at a few summer parties, place their desirable bodies in the company of equally desirable interior design, a charming mix of Bauhaus era collector’s pieces, IKEA shelves and crinkled linen. Then let their blossoming relationship run into a few obstacles, but make sure they grow in the process of overcoming them. End with a kiss or, if this is a European production, a few silent tears, accompanied by the newly acquired wisdom that life, while full of melancholy, is ultimately as beautiful and fragile as the two hours of film you’ve just created.
Joachim Trier’s newest feature film The Worst Person in the World, the final part of his ‘Oslo Trilogy’, follows this rom-com formula to the letter: Julie (Renate Reinsve) is in her late twenties and slightly adrift after failing to complete two degrees. She falls in love with Aksel (Anders Danielsen Lie), a successful comic book author who is a few years older than her and begins to build a life with him. Just as the going gets a little tougher, Julie spends a whirlwind night of “not cheating” with Eivind (Herbert Nordrum), who shares her subdued daddy issues and cares about recycling (he’s a Millennial!). Along with the hairstyles of its female lead, the story grows a little more complicated from here, prompting viewers to contemplate the nature of fate and which of these two heartthrobs Julie is supposed to end up with. Spoiler alert: in a twist that offers about as many insights into the causes of feminism as the excerpts from Julie’s first published article on ‘Oral Sex in the Age of #metoo’, it’s actually neither of them!
The Worst Person in the World is neither a subversion of genre conventions nor, perhaps for fear of kitsch, a whole-hearted embrace of them. For once, the lack of pathos, slightly cheesy soundtrack and scenes of gratifyingly romantic grandeur actually work to the detriment of a film. A rom-com then is perhaps like love: best embraced unabashedly. | <urn:uuid:d0ec26ee-1fea-4176-9788-7befeed7fdb4> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://cinea.be/the-worst-person-in-the-world-young-critics-workshop/ | 2022-01-25T19:20:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304872.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125190255-20220125220255-00718.warc.gz | en | 0.951576 | 499 |
The law of attraction for kids can be incredibly powerful and raise very positive, well adjusted and independent children, teenagers and adults.
Once we learn about the law of attraction and how powerful it is, we naturally think “if only I knew about this earlier”.
The urge to teach our kids about it is normal and natural. It can also have a lot of negative effects – if not taught correctly at the right age.
Most of us did not grow up with positive beliefs instilled in us. Most of us grew up in a system where everyone gravitates towards the average. The common beliefs that you have to work hard and struggle to “make a living” is common.
The beliefs that you will find your soulmate “if you are lucky” and that your health is well-being is something you have no real control over.
Discovering the law of attraction when you come from this system is completely eye-opening. It is often the impetus for change. What if you grew up know that the law of attraction is a fact? What if you grew up with the belief that you can attract anything into your life?
It sure sounds nice not having to do all this “work” of undoing our pasts. Having all the beliefs that empower us “installed” at an age where we do not question things and when our minds are still easily receptive to these ideas.
As nice as this sounds, the law of attraction for kids does come with some issues and you need to be very careful when you start introducing your kids to these ideas. Careful is probably not the best word.
It is more about awareness of how kids could interpret things because as adults we forget just how literal kids can take information – especially if it comes from an authority like a parent.
– Making them “Lazy”
A lot of the criticism for the law of attraction is that it makes people lazy. The idea of sitting on your ass and attracting everything you want is a complete misunderstanding.
It does however highlight the issue that can come up when you teach kids the law of attraction.
You want to make sure that they understand that using the law of attraction to create their lives is not about doing “nothing”. Its about following their inner guidance. You want to teach them to tune into that intuitive voice inside.
It is not about being lazy and doing nothing. Its about doing the “right things” and these are things that are in harmony with their higher selves. Following your bliss is the ultimate lesson to learn from the law of attraction.
When you are tuned into the things you really want from life (not the material things) you are tuned into your highest calling. This is when your life is magical.
Wouldn’t you want that for your kids?
– Making them “Weird”
Another big concern when you start introducing your kids to the law of attraction is that they will naturally start talking about it to friends and teachers (depending on their age). Kids can be cruel and sometimes these metaphysical ideas can be taken as “weird” – especially around other kids who are living strictly by “the system”.
Be mindful of this when you teach your kids about the law of attraction. By simplifying the language you use and stripping all the metaphysical terminology you can avoid this to large extent. Your kids will pick this up in time and usually by themselves as soon as they are ready.
– Making Them “Dreamers”
Another big criticism of the law of attraction is that “these people” are dreamers. If you have the intention of manifesting a huge dream it can take a long time for it to manifest.
People around you might not understand this. It may look like you are just living in the clouds with this big dream.
When teaching the law of attraction to kids you want to be very cautious that they don’t just become dreams. It is important to dream and have bold visions for your life BUT you have to make sure that there is always a strong intention to realize the dream.
Dreaming for the sake of dreaming is empty. Dreaming for the sake of building a magical life is productive and fulfilling – and the reward is that it usually manifests and becomes a reality.
“Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls.”Joseph Campbell
Why You Should Be Teaching The Law Of Attraction For Kids
Teaching your kids the law of attraction is one sure fire way to release any limitations from their life. As parents we all set limitations for our kids – whether we do it consciously or subconsciously.
Children are very keen observers and most of what they believe comes not so much from what you tell them but from what they observe in you as a parent.
Apart from working on yourself as a parent and being an example of unlimited potential, you want to consciously teach your kids the principles of the law of attraction.
To large extent this can counteract all the bad habits that you may pass down to them.
Living to their full potential
When children understand the law of attraction from an early age they are destined to live up to their full potential. We all know that children are born with all the potential in the world yet so few ever reach that full potential.
Do you want that for your children?
The law of attraction teaches children that they can attract anything into their life.
This completely opens their minds to think and act in a completely different way.
They will attempt more things. Keep at things for longer and be more excited about their lives. This can be very powerful ideas especially for teenagers that lack direction or a passion for life.
Ultimately we all want our children to be happy and well adjusted adults one day. Having a vision for your life that excites you.
Working towards this vision and having that divine guidance in your life can never lead to depression, anxiety or unhappiness.
The law of attraction for kids does not exempt them from challenges in life. Instead it gives them a powerful tool to handle anything that may come their way.
It is a way to empower your children. | <urn:uuid:b449597e-af98-4463-bf31-3a4ce96172da> | CC-MAIN-2022-05 | https://comanifesting.com/law-of-attraction-for-kids/ | 2022-01-25T20:37:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-05/segments/1642320304872.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20220125190255-20220125220255-00718.warc.gz | en | 0.968521 | 1,282 |
Although the Italian decoration brand LOLLI e MEMMOLI is a new brand, its influence on lighting is the use of lighting. The designer Lolli Memmoli is very good at making lighting with special materials and production methods to make her shape more clothing. Artistic beauty, among many, we can see many design ingenuities and come up with our styling design. In recent years, LOLLI eMEMMOLI has also incorporated the design into the foot crystal lamp, using the sweater knitting method to knit the crystal crystal in Together, create a more unique crystal design, which makes people’s eyes bright.

The use of such a wide range of crystal lamps is so popular.
This case is from Mr. Jiang from Taipei. Mr. Jiang, who lives in Taipei, is a master of industrial design. Although young, he is quite experienced. For the 3D structure of objects, logical derivation, mathematical calculations, and structure finishing are all Quite specialized, but do you think that the mind of this science is completely ignorant of aesthetics? In fact, this is not the case. With regard to aesthetic design, Mr. Jiang also has a set of thinking and beauty that are more than ordinary.
In the interior design, Mr. Jiang emphasizes simplicity and simplicity, the color is simple, and the strong contrast between white and black is used to form a visual gap in the space. The invisible interior makes the interior space not appear complicated. The linear version of geometric lines and the woodwork design make Everything is full of futuristic sense, quite sci-fi. In such a futuristic design space, Mr. Jiang always feels that something is missing, which makes his thinking stagnate and quite distressed. It is the stars. In this vast future space, less It is enough to represent the stars of the universe.
Mr. Jiang whispered, it is stars, lacking stars. This is the first time that Mr. Jiang has thought of a crystal lamp, but what crystal lamp is suitable? The crystal lamps of the imitation lighting store I was looking for were not suitable. It was too classic, too European, too traditional, and too complicated. Mr. Jiang was not satisfied. She began to look for and refer to the simple future space interior design in Europe and America. He finally had it. Inspired, this is the crystal lamp! ! ! ! !
Simple lines, countless small crystals full of stars, after the refraction of light, reveal infinite sparkle, dazzling, shining moving, this is the answer, this is what Mr. Jiang wants!
This case is very interesting. Our discussion with Mr. Jiang is almost ready to publish a book. In fact, this crystal lamp is a replica of the Italian brand Manooi Luxury, but we have made some adjustments in some details, such as crystal The density is increased, and the size is specially designed in accordance with Mr. Jiang’s home space, making everything almost perfect.
