And there's the Nike Shoes Sneakers For Women
To simplify, global warming is caused by the increase in the atmosphere of certain gases, primarily carbon dioxide, as a result of burning fossil fuels and clearing forests. Yes, there's still discussion about the extent to which other factors may contribute to this warming.
She wants you to go see the movie.
Moscow because the Gulf Stream goes kaput due to the way a relatively small temperature change could affect ocean currents? Will millions of people be displaced because of drought?
question of when the tipping point comes and what it will bring. Will insurance rates go so high that you can no longer afford to rent a house at Nags Head? Will temperatures in London over the course of 10 or 15 years become more like those in Nike Running Shoes Galaxy
If you're thinking, "global warming is a bunch of hooey," ponder the possibility that you might be wrong about that and the ramifications of being wrong.
But global warming isn't only about rising sea levels. The world adjusts in other ways. Patterns of rainfall and drought. The range of plant and animal species. Ocean currents. Disease vectors.
And Join The Dialogue On Global Warming
If you haven't already heard of it, "An Inconvenient Truth" is about global warming.
Those potential outcomes or at least the more serious ones raise another question: Do we want to find out the hard way?
Curry says some people don't like the policy implications of limiting those emissions, so they try to debunk the Nike Shoes Gray Women science. She says the science is solid. There is no argument over temperature increase. There is no "credible" argument about the relationship between increasing levels of carbon dioxide and rising temperatures. And there's growing evidence of the relationship between global warming and an increasing number of category 4 and 5 hurricanes.
Curry chairs the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the Georgia Institute of Technology, and she earned her doctorate in geophysical sciences at the University of Chicago. So you see, whatever you might think of my credentials as a movie critic, the chances are pretty good that you don't know as much about the science of global Nike Trainers Beige
Curry sees the federal government as in denial on the issue but thinks there's a lot being done at the grass roots, by cities, states and churches. "That can be very powerful," she says.
warming as Curry does. And after speaking with her, I can say this:
Curry is not an alarmist. Poquoson isn't going to be under 10 feet of water next week. In fact, she thinks it could be 100 years before you see a major redrawing of the map because of rising sea levels. Could be.
One interesting thing about Gore's movie is that right when it has you almost as depressed as you can be about our prospects, he discusses the comparatively simple things we can do to avoid the worst. Perhaps he is even too optimistic in that regard.
But you can control only what you can control. Gore believes that if we're to avoid catastrophe, we have to limit carbon dioxide emissions.

Christ Presbyterian Church, Milford
Worship God. Love people. Serve Milford.
Why a new church?
What kind of church?
I get asked "why a new church?" a lot. I think what drives the question is a sense that a new church means more fragmentation; a sign of division rather than coming together. It's a fair question. What I'd point out though, is that only 14% of New Englanders attend religious services with any regularity. We aren't looking to steal from that small fraction of people who are already involved in a church, but to learn how to serve the 86% of the people who aren't being served.
Another way to think of it is by comparison to the restaurant industry. We wouldn't really want a town where all the restaurants have gotten together and only serve one menu; when a new restaurant opens it adds to the diversity on the restaurant scene and improves the picture for everyone: other restaurants become better and more creative for having more restauranteurs in the area, eaters get more options and variety and a better experience.
We want every human being to belong to a community that is shaped by the Gospel and that exists for the glory of God and the good of our neighbor. We believe that starting a new church is the best way to bring the Gospel to a community. The Gospel is the good news that God has entered into his creation in Christ to restore what is broken. The local church is the tool God uses to bring about this restoration because, God who is perfectly Other, became local and present in Christ. The local church brings this infinite Gospel into our particular realities. As we start to believe the Gospel it changes everything from the way we live as neighbors and friends, to the way we parent our children, to how we interact with the world at large.
A local Presbyterian church.
We are a church in and for our community. We want to celebrate its goodness, serve its specific needs, and work towards the flourishing of all its citizens. We worship in the voice of our community and seek to be a church that grows organically out of our neighborhoods. We are committed to working for the common good. We look to serve, not to be served. We look to give, not to take. We are eager to bless others because we have been blessed by God.
Being Presbyterian means we are led by elders and connected with other churches. This provides accountability, oversight, and produces real pastoral care. We are part of the Reformed Tradition which teaches that God knows us intimately and enables us to know Him intimately. We believe that life in relationship with God is not only possible but vibrant. That God is the initiator of this relationship and the whole is based on grace and forgiveness offered to us in the being and action of Jesus Christ.
We believe that local, Christ-centered churches that are designed according to the pattern of Scripture are the very epicenter of Christ's saving presence on earth "against which even the gates of hell cannot prevail" (Matthew 16:17-19)! More than a source of mission, the carefully designed, biblically-organized, church is the core of mission–the very life-giving presence of Christ, our Mediator. And this changes everything about the way we think of "church."
Pastor Curran Bishop
Curran was raised in Georgia by native New Englanders, Abby was raised in Portugal by native Floridians. We had four children while living in the Midwest (Ellie, 9; Hudson, 7; twins Jack and Pete, 5) and now we're starting a new church in Milford!
We are graduates of Covenant College where we met. Curran served as a youth minister in North Carolina while Abby completed an MA in education, then Curran attended Covenant Theological Seminary and Concordia Seminary in St. Louis where he is a PhD candidate in historical theology. He served as an elder before becoming a solo pastor of a PCA church in Carbondale, IL. Abby taught Special Ed in the public schools for five years and in a Charlotte Mason school for two years. Since becoming a full-time mom she has used her background in education to connect with parents and children throughout the community.
We are a congregation of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) and part of the Mission Anabaino church planting network.
Christianity is not a program, a plan, a philosophical position, or a set of theological propositions. Christianity revolves around a person. Depending on your experience, this sounds cryptic or right or fluffy or familiar. What we present here is neither a comprehensive statement nor a checklist that you have to agree with to join us. This is a concise list of some of our core beliefs.
We believe that God is real. That life, therefore, has meaning and purpose.
We believe that the world is not the way it's supposed to be. That shame, loneliness, addiction, and every kind of pain begin in the heart and creep outward, but that goodness and glory nevertheless surprise and delight us. We prefer the phrase "glorious ruin" to describe ourselves and the world in which we live.
We believe that God spoke; that God communicated to his people throughout history, and that communication is recorded in the literature we call the Bible, and through this literature He is still speaking.
We believe that God was and is encountered in Jesus of Nazareth. He is humanity's champion. He faced evil in its fullest form for us on the cross. By letting it crush him, he broke its power. Now he brings the hope, and the promise, that one day evil will be vanquished completely.
We believe in the reality and the power of grace. Though we are worse than we could ever realize, we are more loved than we could ever imagine. We call this the gospel.
We believe that everyone is created in the image of God, which is another way of saying that no matter how messed up we are, there is something good and true and beautiful and valuable about everyone, and that everyone deserves our respect and love.
We believe that the Church is the heart of Christian community. The Church doesn't save, but it's the community of the Savior.
We believe that God cares for this town. Together with other churches and organizations serving Southern Connecticut and the city itself, we want God to use us to love Milford, and to serve its neighborhoods and culture.
To enjoy and serve in Jesus' community here, we do not expect you to sign off on every detail of our theological convictions. Rather, we want everyone to join us on the journey of a life with God, embracing the essential tenets of the gospel and committing to a humble, teachable attitude along the way.
So, we simply like to say that we are a faith community that is theologically aligned to historic confessional Christianity. This means we affirm the Apostles' and Nicene creeds, continued and refined through the Reformed confessions and creeds of the 16th and 17th centuries, and summarized in the Westminster Confession of Faith and Larger and Shorter Catechisms.
Joining a new community is not always easy. We would love to make ourselves available to answer any questions you may have or just to get to know each other over a cup of coffee. Please email or call us if you would like any more information or would like to meet with our pastor to learn more.
curran.bishop@cpcmilford.org
We have not yet begun public worship, but We meet on Sunday evenings from 5-7pm in each other's homes. We alternate between a meal one week and a Bible study/time of prayer the next week. If you'd like to join us please contact us for more details.

Strzępkoząb ostrokolczasty (Hyphodontia arguta (Fr.) J. Erikss.) – gatunek grzybów należący do rzędu szczeciniakowców (Hyphodntiales).

Systematyka i nazewnictwo
Pozycja w klasyfikacji według Index Fungorum: Hyphodontia, Hyphodontiaceae, Hymenochaetales, Incertae sedis, Agaricomycetes, Agaricomycotina, Basidiomycota, Fungi.

Po raz pierwszy takson ten zdiagnozował w roku 1821 Elias Fries nadając mu nazwę Hydnum argutum. Obecną, uznaną przez Index Fungorum nazwę nadał mu w roku 1958 J. Eriksson, przenosząc go do rodzaju Hyphodontia.

Niektóre synonimy nazwy naukowej:

Polską nazwę zaproponował Władysław Wojewoda w 2003 r., wcześniej Franciszek Błoński opisywał ten gatunek pod nazwą kolczak ostry.

Morfologia
 Owocnik
Jednoroczny. Jest płasko rozpostarty, o kształcie okrągłym lub podłużnym, cienki i ściśle przylegający do podłoża. Konsystencja dość zdrewniała, powierzchnia początkowo biała, potem kremowa lub gliniasta, w końcu bladoochrowa, a po dojrzeniu zarodników ochrowa. Hymenofor kolczasty. Kolce zazwyczaj stożkowate, o długości 0,5–2 mm. Są tępe lub zwężające się ku wierzchołkowi, który jest owłosiony, pędzelkowaty (widoczne to jest dopiero przez lupę), lub wystają na nim cystydy. Kolce są zróżnicowane w kształcie. Często wszystkie są bardzo regularne, ale czasami, zwłaszcza w starszych owocnikach są nieregularne. Na podłożu pochyłym bywają spłaszczone. Obrzeże młodych owocników jest przerzedzone i oprószone.

 Cechy mikroskopowe
System strzępkowy monomityczny. Strzępki o średnicy 2–3 μm, w środku owocnika słabo rozgałęzione i dość proste, poza tym silnie rozgałęzione i splątane. Młode strzępki są bezbarwne, starsze żółtawe. W hymenium występują dwojakiego rodzaju cystydy:
 główkowate i nieco wystające ponad hymenium. Powstają na końcach słabo zróżnicowanych, sterylnych strzępek. Ich długość do pierwszej przegrody na strzępce wynosi 40–75 μm, szerokość 5–7 μm,
 lagenocystydy o szerokości 7–10 μm i długości 30–35 μm do pierwszej przegrody.

Podstawki zgrubiałe, cylindryczne ze zwężeniem na środku, często faliste. Mają rozmiar 15–18 × 3,5–5 μm, 4 sterygmy i sprzążki w podstawie. Zarodniki szerokoelipsoidalne, cienkościenne, gładkie, nieamyloidalne, o rozmiarach 4,5–6 × 35–4 μm.

Występowanie i siedlisko
Jest szeroko rozprzestrzeniony; poza Antarktydą występuje na wszystkich kontynentach, a także na wielu wyspach. W Polsce jest dość pospolity, w piśmiennictwie naukowym do 2003 r. podano ponad 10 jego stanowisk.

Rozwija się na martwych gałęziach i na drewnie drzew liściastych, rzadziej iglastych. Występuje w lasach, parkach, na cmentarzach, starych domach. W Polsce notowany był na klonach, brzozach, robinii akacjowej, wierzbie, rzadziej na jodle i świerku. Owocniki wytwarza od czerwca do października.

Gatunki podobne
Strzępkoząb ostrokolczasty jest trudno odróżnić od niektórych innych gatunków z rozpostartym owocnikiem i kolczastym hymenoforem. Szczególnie podobny jest strzępkoząb woskowaty (Hyphodontia alutaria). Gatunki te różnią się głównie konsystencją owocnika; H. arguta ma bardziej zdrewniały, a H. alutaria bardziej skórzasty. Trudno je rozróżnić również pod mikroskopem; obydwa gatunki mają podobne dwojakiego rodzaju cystydy. Oryginalna, podana przez E. M.Friesa diagnoza jest skrótowa i można do niej dopasować wiele gatunków strzępkozębów. E. M. Fries nie pozostawił też materiału zielnikowego.

"Live Out Your Love" is a song by American singer Kem featuring Toni Braxton. Recorded for his sixth studio album Love Always Wins (2018), the duet was produced by Kem and Derek "DOA" Allen and released as the album's second single on July 30, 2020, along with the pre-order launched for the album. It peaked at number one on the US Adult R&B Songs chart, and number 14 on the US R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart.

Background
"Live Out Your Love" was written by Kem along with fellow R&B singer Toni Braxton and songwriter Derek "DOA" Allen, while production was helmed by the latter. Built upon a "soothing instrumental", the duet has the pair singing about an everlasting love that seems to get better by the day. The collaboration was sparked in 2019 when Kem was invited to perform at Braxton's Valentine's Day concert at the Fox Theatre in Detroit. While working on his 2020 album Love Always Wins, Kem began to envision "Live Out Your Love" as a duet and asked Braxton to join him. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Braxton recorded her vocals on her own and sent them back to Kem.

UMD is playing for their postseason life, if there is one to even save.
Not only have the Bulldogs played themselves out of a secure PWR ranking, but home ice in the first round of the NCHC playoffs is in serious peril too.
The Bulldogs will need help to reach postseason goals, but all the help in the world is nothing if they do not win. This weekend will be an indicator if they are totally dead in the water.
Picks by @afiskness. Last weekend the top teams in NCHC were able to spread themselves out from the pack making it look like a two team race for the Julie and Spencer Penrose Memorial Cup. Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, the dreadful second period of play Saturday night probably cemented UMD in the bottom half of the division. Now with a suddenly surging Colorado Tiger team in the rear view mirror, the Bulldogs will need to find some wins or they could end up in seventh place. I could spend a long time writing about the Saturday game, but it won't get us anywhere so I will keep that in the past.
Minnesota Duluth @ Miami: The good thing about this series is that the Bulldogs are on the road and that there is a Chipotle in Oxford. The Bulldogs season is currently spirally out of control and maybe the Chipotle will be the difference this weekend. Last weekend the Redhawks were finally able to get a win and may be looking to feast on the wounded psyche of the Bulldogs. Originally I was picking this series as two ties, but I think I am going to go with a split instead. Thanks, Chipotle.
Denver @ Miami: Back in December when these two teams last played the Pioneers swept, nut I think this will be a different weekend. The Pioneers seem to be in a funk again and I think the Broncos may actually play good for the prize of home ice. Broncos win and tie.
Colorado @ Nebraska Omaha: Scott Owen's Tigers are hot, but this shoud be a balanced series. The Mavericks scoring is much better than the Tigers and they will earn the split.

Canadian Government Sets New Limits on VOC Levels in Certain Consumer Products
Earlier this month, the Government of Canada published the Volatile Organic Compound Limits for Certain Products Regulations (SOR/201-268), which aim to reduce harmful VOC emissions from products imported to or manufactured in Canada.
What Are VOCs?
VOCs are carbon compounds (e.g., butane, toulene, pentane, propane, etc.) with boiling points roughly in the range of 50 to 250 °C (122 to 482 °F) that are created when toxic chemicals vaporize and form harmful gases.
VOCs include a variety of chemicals that are widely used as in products such as paints and lacquers, solvents, cosmetics, cleaners and disinfectants, engine additives, glues/adhesives, building materials, furnishings, and so on.
When exposed to sunlight, VOCs react with nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide to form tropospheric ozone, often referred to as ground-level smog. Higher concentrations of VOCs may cause irritation of the lungs, as well as damage to the liver, kidney, or central nervous system.
What Products Are Covered?
The new regulations impose VOC concentration limits on roughly 130 product categories, prohibiting the manufacture and import of these products in excess of their respective category-specific VOC limits.
Goods covered by the regulations include a wide range of products used by consumers, or in institutional, industrial or commercial applications and include: personal care products; automotive and household maintenance products; adhesives, solvents, sealants and caulks; and other miscellaneous products.
When Does This Take Effect?
The new regulations are set to come into force on January 1, 2023, to allow for the application for permits and the building of compliance units one year prior to implementation.
Maximum VOC concentration limits for the manufacture and import of products listed in the schedules to the regulations will come into effect on January 1, 2024, for all product categories, except disinfectants, which come into effect on January 1, 2025.
What Impact Will This Have on Canadian Businesses?
The regulations apply to any person who manufactures or imports products that contain VOCs and belong to one of the regulated product categories or subcategories.
Although companies are not required to submit reports or conduct product testing to comply with the regulations, the onus is directly on them to ensure that the products they import, or manufacture meet the regulatory limits.
To help ensure compliance, manufacturers and importers of a regulated product are required to indicate, on the product container, the date on which the product was manufactured or a code representing that date. Additionally, they must also keep records regarding regulated products in Canada for a period of at least 5 years.

Stevie Wonder performs onstage during Nipsey Hussle's Celebration of Life at STAPLES Center on April 11, 2019 in Los Angeles, California.
"It's a heartbreak to again lose a member of our family."
As noted by social media users who pointed out a lyric on Nipsey Hussle's "Ocean Views" song, the late rapper was commemorated by Stevie Wonder through a melody that holds a deep place of significance to the late rapper. During Thursday's memorial service in Los Angeles (April 11), Wonder sang "Rocket Love" before the moment was complete.
"It's a heartbreak to again lose a member of our family," Wonder said, per The New York Times. "It's a heartbreak because it's so unnecessary. It is so painful to know that we don't have enough people taking a position that says, 'listen, we must have stronger gun laws.'"
The award-winning musician also stressed the importance of tightening firearm laws to prevent senseless gun violence. "It is almost like the world is becoming blind. I pray that we will grow and that the leaders who have responsibility to perpetuate life will do it by making sure that the laws will make it very hard for people to have guns and take their frustrations out to kill life." Wonder also performed Eric Clapton's "Tears In Heaven."
Wonder's performance can be viewed at the 48-minute mark.

What Is Hulless Popcorn & Popcorn Benefits And Side Effects
Blog / By James Morgan
What Is Hulless Popcorn? It is never possible to completely separate popcorn from seeds. Because after making popcorn, even a little bit of it remains.
And the difference between good and bad popcorn is the amount of seed it contains.
Branded popcorn is processed with many finesses due to the small number of seeds remaining in it. It could be 3% or up to 7%. Ordinary popcorn contains about 20% of the seed.
So all the popcorn contains 95% fresh, is basically called hulless popcorn.
There are some bad and good aspects of this popcorn that many people do not know. Today I will tell Popcorn benefits and side effects.
So please read my full article to know all the information.
Benefits of Popcorn:
Full with Vitamins and Fibers
Helps to reduce weight loss
Controls Blood Sugar level
Lower cholesterol level
Side Effects of Popcorn:
Artificial Flavored Popcorn
Popcorn has lots of vitamins and minerals. The least of these are magnesium, copper, zinc, and iron. Because of this, a small amount of popcorn will give you a lot of energy.
Also, it contains 3 categories of vitamin B, which helps in hardening and boosting immunity. And you will be surprised to know that only 4 cups of popcorn has more than 4 grams of fiber.
That's why popcorn is said to be the least of the fiber foods. So there is no substitute for popcorn if you want to eat high fiber and vitamins very easily.
Popcorn has a lot of fiber, which makes the stomach feel full after eating it. But the biggest aspect of it is that the amount of calories in it is meager.
Even if you eat a lot, your extra calories will not be stored in the body. Only 35-45 calories are available in a cup of popcorn.
So eating it will fill the stomach, and the body will not accumulate extra energy and calories.
This is why many Americans have chosen to lose weight by adding popcorn to their diet chart. And through this, they have got proper results.
Blood pressure and sugar usually rise after eating a meal, such as fruits and heavy meals. Again, eating sour foods lowers blood pressure and sugar, which is a bit unhealthy.
But eating popcorn will not make your blood sugar more or less. It stabilizes blood pressure and sugar a bit, so you don't have to worry. You can relax a bit.
And no need to worry about blood pressure and sugar. So those who have problems with blood sugar but want to eat popcorn can eat safely.
Popcorn has a lot of grains and fiber, which is why it will lower your cholesterol levels. Cholesterol usually causes heart and urinary problems.
That's why doctors always say to keep cholesterol levels under control. And eating popcorn can be your lifesaver.
Because if you can make a habit of eating popcorn by thinking about the heart, it will give you good results in the future.
And those who are already suffering from high cholesterol can put popcorn on a regular chart. This will lower your cholesterol level and keep your health under control.
If you have a habit of eating microwave popcorn, give it up very quickly. You probably have no idea how much damage it can do.
There is no difference between a normal popcorn kernel and a microwave popcorn kernel. But the problem is in the polybag.
They have many extra ingredients in the polybag, and PFOA is one of them. It's a lot like Teflon, which stays in the environment and the human body for many days.
And it is deadly harmful. This can cause damage to your liver. If you eat for a day or two, it may not be a problem, but if you eat microwave popcorn regularly, you may have face this type of problem.
Different flavors are added to make popcorn tasty. But some natural flavors in it do not harm the body. But the rest of the flavors are artificial flavors or toxic flavors.
Due to this kind of flavor, popcorn is delicious to eat, and these are also quite cheap, so they are used in large quantities. But this toxic flavor can cause various diseases, including heart block.
So try popcorn in natural flavor or raw flavor. And for various tests, use natural integrates, butter, or homemade recipes.
Now you know about the Popcorn benefits and side effects. It goes without saying that popcorn has no bad side compared to its good side.
But be sure to avoid artificial flavors. So always try to make popcorn at home. And if you have a habit of eating microwave popcorn, then stop it from today;
otherwise, it may cause serious damage to your health in the future.

Poker is a card game with several variations. This one, in particular, is the Texas Hold'em Poker ? the Poker version that has become more and more popular over the last years. Here at GameVelvet it is a betting game in which virtual credits with no monetary value are contested for sheer entertainment, that is, no credit may be converted into money.
Important: It is forbidden to make money bets as well as money transactions among GameVelvet Users!
In order to join the match, the User must have credits in his/her account that are equal to or higher than the table bankroll. A minimum of 2 and a maximum of 8 players are allowed in the game. A 52-card deck without jokers is used in this game.
The first table dealer is randomly chosen by the computer and thereafter the turn to deal the cards is that of the player on his/her left after each hand. Since the shuffling and dealing are automated, the dealer, in practical terms, is just there to show who will pay the Small Blind, the Big Blind and who will be the first to play, namely, whoever is on the left of the Big Blind.
They work as the antes in classic Poker. They are a sort of fee which all players have to pay in order to stay at the table. However, only one player is supposed to pay the Small Blind and another player, the Big Blind in each match. The Small Blind is worth half of the Big Blind and must be paid by the player on the left of the dealer. The Big Blind is paid by the player on the left of the player who has already paid the Small Blind. The betting starts with the player on the left of whoever has paid the Big Blind. Since the dealer is always the player on the left of the previous dealer, the player who pays the Blinds is always someone to the left throughout the matches.
At Limit Hold'em, the amount played is the same as in the Big Blind in the first and second rounds and twice as much in the third and fourth rounds. It may be raised a maximum of four times during the same round. The same goes to No-Limit Hold'em. However, the amount in the first two rounds is at least the same amount played at the Limit Hold'em tables although it can be higher.
FOLD means dropping out to avoid losing any further.
CHECK means passing the turn to bet without having to fold.
This option is only available to the player of the ongoing turn provided that there hasn't been any bets in the round, that is, if the player is the first to place a bet or if the previous players have also chosen to check.
CALL means matching the current bet made by the previous player.
RAISE means raising the bet. It consists not only of matching the bet but also placing some extra amount on the table. This makes the other players either match your bet (call) or drop out (fold).
The round is over when all seated players have matched the bet, that is, when everyone has bet the same amount.
The cards are dealt clockwise one by one until all players have two cards in their hands. The cards are visible to the player only.
At this point it's up to the player to assess the best possible card combination using the 2 cards he/she has in his/her hand bearing in mind that 5 community cards will be laid down on the table. Whoever is on the left of the player who has paid the Big Blind, opens the Betting Round.
Three community cards are laid down. Thereafter, the Second Betting Round takes place.
The fourth community card is laid down. Thereafter, the Third Betting Round takes place.
The fifth community card is laid down. Thereafter, the Fourth Betting Round takes place.
After the River, the player who hasn't folded, shows his/her hand and whoever has the best combination wins the match and all the bet amount. Exceptions take place if all players, but one, fold. In this case whoever remains at the table wins the total amount of bets but doesn't show his/her cards. In the case of a tie, the amount is evenly shared among the winners.
When a player uses all his/her chips to place or match a bet worth the same or higher than that of the other players', he/she then reaches a special condition: the All-In. The player remains in the game as he/she places all his/her chips on the table but once the player wins, he/she doesn't receive all the bet amount. Instead, he/she gets the amount that he/she has placed multiplied by the number of players who have finished the match. The remaining amount is disputed by the other players' hands. For instance, players ?A?, ?B? and ?C? remain at the table. ?A? bets 100 credits, ?B? bets 100 credits as well and ?C? bets 50 credits since it is all he/she has. ?C? is therefore an All-In player. ?C? wins the match but he/she receives 150 (50 X 3) because he/she has bet 50 credits and 3 players have finished the match. If ?B? has the second best hand, he/she gets what is left: 100. If ?B? and ?A? come to a tie, each one gets 50 credits and shares what is left. Another possibility is a tiebetween ?C? and ?B? having ?A? as the loser. In this case, ?C? receives 75 credits (50 X 3/2) and ?B? receives what is left, that is, 175 credits.
The Kicker is used as a tie-breaker when there are two similar hands. It is the higher card which isn't part of the hand. Hands that may have a Kicker are: One Pair, Two Pairs, Three of a Kind and Four of a Kind. The other ones don't have a Kicker, the tie-break is then done with the cards that make up the hand.
Important:In the Texas Hold' em game, the card combinations are made by using the 2 cards in the player's hand plus the 5 community cards on the table. In other words, from 7 available cards only 5 are used to make a hand.
The hand with the highest card(s) wins. This hand is worth its highest ranking card when used as a tie-breaker followed by the second highest card and so on. Thus K, J, 9, 8, 7 outranks Q, J, 10, 9, 7.
It consists of 2 cards of the same number or face value. If 2 players have the same pair, the highest outside card(s) win(s).
If 2 players have 2 pairs, the hand with the highest pair wins. If they have the same high pair, whoever has the second highest pair wins. If they have the same 2 pairs, whoever has the highest fifth card (Kicker) wins.
It consists of 3 cards of the same number or face value. Also known as Trips.
It consists of 5 cards in sequence. Cards can be in any suit. An Ace can be used in the highest straight (10, J, Q, K, A) and the lowest straight (A, 2, 3, 4, 5).
It consists of 5 cards of the same suit. If there's more than 1 flush, the hand with the highest card(s) wins.
It consists of 3 cards of 1 number or face value and 2 cards of another number or face value. If more than 1 player has a Full House, the Full House with the highest ranking three of a kind (Trips) wins.
It consists of 4 cards of the same number or face value (Quads).
It consists of 5 cards in sequence all in the same suit. The highest card here is the King.
It is the best and the hardest hand you can get. It consists of 5 cards of the same suit all in numerical sequence (10, J, Q, K, A).
Enjoy the thrill of winning or losing through your bets in the Poker game. However, in the GameVelvet Poker games you can only play with virtual money (credits) which have no monetary value. By providing credits and a credit reload policy which value the points you earn, we're able to limit the access to those credits. When you first seat at a Poker table, you have an account activated by 1,000 credits if you're a Game & Hearts User, and by 500 credits if you're using your 20-Hour Pass. Should you lose those credits in a game, you can always reload them by clicking on the button on the Poker screen. To have your credits reloaded, you must have less than 50 credits in your Account. In this case, 150 credits will be added 2 hours after your request. You're only allowed to have your credits reloaded up to twice a day. So, we advise you to treasure your credits.
In case a player feels hindered by any error caused by the system, he/she must use the Auditing Tool available on the Poker Room Menu in order to officially place his/her complaint. The complaint must be written right after the match and a copy of the last Match History will be then submitted to the Janitors Team. Once an error is indeed detected in the system, GameVelvet refunds the lost credits. Complaints placed through other means such as e-mails or posts in the community forum, will not be seen to. Dump crashes or connection problems are not considered system errors. Therefore, they are not liable to credit refunds since those kinds of errors may have various causes beyond Games & Hearts services.
In the interest of avoiding losses of credits due to dump crashes, and in order to deter illegal transactions as well as transactions that don't comply to our Terms of Services, the player is not allowed to receive from other players any amount higher than that which he/she himself/herself has covered. All players who have bet an amount which hasn't been covered, will have that difference refunded even if he/she leaves the game.
- Player B leaves the table or loses connection.
In this case, Player A receives 1,020 credits (500 credits from his/her bet + 500 from Player B + 20 credits from the antes) and Player B has 9,500 credits refunded (10,000 ? 500 covered by Player A).

Eskhaton is your chance to bring about your own version of the apocalypse.
Join with other cultists to worship terrible ancient gods from beyond in celebration of the end of the world in this cosmic horror larp!
Eskhaton is a larp focused on the gathering of cults that worship extra-dimensional beings and know that the end times are coming. It is set in modern times and is expected to running in April 2019 in the New England region with anywhere from 100-125 players.
April 5th through the 7th, 2019 Providence, Rhode Island, USA
The apocalypse is coming and you're invited to make it happen. Eskhaton is a larp in the genre setting of cosmic horror and will provide the sense that ordinary life is a thin shell over a reality that is so alien and abstract in comparison that merely contemplating it would damage the sanity of the ordinary person. This dark and mysterious event will drop you into the twilight hours of existence before the end times.
Larping.org's staff was able to speak with the team from Reverie Studios about their upcoming event!
Who is behind Eskhaton and what has your team done in the past?
The Eskhaton team is a larp produced by Reverie Studios and collaborators. Reverie Studios is made up of three co-founders of Ken Pickering, Tyler Brown and Garett Kopczynski who have larped for decades and run their own events independently, but came together to produce and write new immersive material. Their first larp together was Seance Sessions, followed by A CoG in the Machine, and they produced DAEDALVS. They have written or helped to run a number of other events, including the upcoming Pandaemonium at High Level Games Con, and End of the Line in Berlin.
What drives your teams creative process? (What is the "why" behind what you do?)
The team's creative process is to bring high quality, immersive larps to the United States. The Reverie co-founders came together to do this after experiencing End of the Line in New Orleans at Grand Masquerade, and have since aimed to make larps that are emotional and provocative. The team enjoys tackling unusual concepts and working with original content, designing for existential questions such as death, the weight of decisions, and exploring the meaning or purpose of existing. This is at the core of all of the team's projects (in addition to it all being fun!)
Why Eskhaton? What made you choose the theme and story for this game?
The team reviewed different larp concepts and what could be exciting to explore in a design session, and the question of 'what if you could portray a cultist?' was asked. Reverie Studios wanted to explore that and to understand more about why individuals behave or believe in a certain way. The theme of the world ending and being culpable somehow in this provided an essential ingredient for what sets Eskhaton apart. There is no stopping the end, and in some way the cultists are in just as much of a precarious position as anyone else, but exploring how they react to and handle that as believers in the truths of this world is what we believe will create a high-quality story experience for participants.
The website says the game is "Lovecraftian Inspired". Can you elaborate on that?
We chose to state that Eskhaton is 'Lovecraftian Inspired' for two reasons: the first is that we do not want to write in a genre that is very crowded and we thoroughly enjoy designing original material, and second Lovecraft is a deeply problematic writer whose writings and personal beliefs we do not want to endorse or proliferate. We enjoy the genre of cosmic horror, and would like to strike off on our own path to define that style.
What is the general story that is about to take place that people will be stepping into?
The story is of a number of cultists belonging to five cults have all received signs and portents that the end of the world is coming. They are gathering together in a celebration of this, an acknowledgement that their time in the shadows is over and that they will rise ascendant as the world comes crashing down. The story explores characters with varied and conflicted feelings about this, as well as those who are fanatical and absolute in the certainty of this outcome. With five gods in play, one for each cult, there will be a determination of which god's apocalypse comes to pass, allowing for a multitude of outcomes and stories.
The venue for a blockbuster larp is a huge deal, why did you choose the location that you did? What can you tell us about it that you think will make it special?
It was important for us to choose a destination that was exciting, and thematic for the event. Providence is very important to the genre, and is the place that Lovecraft spent much of his life. It is a place that is accessible, and fun to visit. We felt it was crucial to have an event in Providence, and were able to secure an amazing historic site 'The Squantum Association'. A former club for the well to do, it has an appropriate ominousness and elegance that fits the event, and will provide participants opportunities to live out their stories as cultists in a place that feels right. It ticks off all the boxes of being cool, accessible, safe, and unique.
From the trailer the game looks like it's going to be dark and mysterious. Will the game be hitting on mature subject matter? What can participants look forward to in that regard?
We as a design studio focus firstly on safety and consent. We enjoy writing larps that tackle darker themes, but we set out to ensure that safety is baked into our design principles. There are design axioms we firmly hold to, such as not including severe trauma or sexual events in character backstories. A larp should be fun, even if it is going to be on the darker side. That being said, we intend to respectfully embrace the end of the world and what it means, but mostly to create an environment in which participants can explore that story. The participants can look forward to having troubled, challenging stories and characters to interact with, and all while dealing with the gnawing inevitable truth that A: they are culpable, B: there is nothing they can do about it and C: they're on the winning side.
When the event is over, what do you hope your participants will walk away with as their big takeaway from the game?
What's important to us is that the experience was fun, but most importantly that it was an experience. We want the event to have touched or changed the participant in some way, creating a lasting memory that can integrate into their lives as perspective and reflection. Ending the world is no small matter, and portraying somebody who wants to end it, rather than most of us who want to save it, is a unique thing we offer with Eskhaton."
Eskhaton's story centers on five major cults that worship apocalyptic extra-dimensional beings that will destroy Earth and transform it. Inspired by Lovecraftian myth and the cults in it, the central story focuses on the cults that have long been in decline or side-lined into the shadows, knowingly worshipping beings from beyond, and hiding from the dangers of exposure to a hostile society. A prophesied 'end time' is coming that all of the cults agree on and they are now gathering to work together (or not) and the central conflict is on how much members of these cults can agree to work together knowing that the apocalypse is coming. Each of the gods associated with the cults have their own apocalypse outcome, and the cultists in their interaction will discover which they believe most in. The characters portrayed are cultists or infiltrators of the cults, and the dawning horror or exhilaration of the end is central to the game's main story.
Players will have a number of tasks before them. The primary "goals" of the event are to create or destroy an alliance between the cults, to share information on threats to the cults, to formulate a plan for dealing with those threats either separately or together, and to perform rituals that further goals. Players can expect diplomacy, drama, interpersonal relationships, moral dilemmas and the experience of casting rituals or dabbling in dark magics.
Along the way there will be:
Debates—debates about the true nature of the extra-dimensional beings, the nature of magic and ritual, the necessity (or not) of working together to achieve a common goal, whether the apocalypse should be averted, who should lead in the coming times
Mysteries to solve—what is the true origin of the cults, what do the extra-dimensional beings want exactly, what is magic and why does it work, what else is there in the universe
Personal stories—believers of the cult vs. those along for the ride, relationships with the cult as family or friends, feelings of horror and fear of the end coming, desire for power and recognition or revenge, personal curiosity and morbid fascination, living in a group that accepts all
Politics—the jockeying for control of a cult, the politics in negotiating the alliance of cults for the end times, the dismissal or destruction of rivals, laying a path for productive outcomes and a secure future to the shared agenda
Contextual drama—ritual and magic being performed and the emotions or experience of that, fear of infiltration by law enforcement or outside interests (i.e. cultist hunters), encountering the monstrous and unknown, insanity and delusion as coping mechanisms

Meet one of my favorite Indian Dishes…Roasted Smoked Eggplant Curry, otherwise popularly known as Baingan Bharta. My mom rarely made this dish growing up, so it really wasn't until college, when one of my roommates made it, that I had my first real experience with this dish. I had seen it at Indian restaurants before, but had never bothered trying it. So when I realized how easy and unbelievably tasty it was, it quickly became a favorite of mine. I've now created my own version of this dish.
If you're not familiar with this traditional Indian dish, you can think of it as an Indian version of Baba Ghanoush. The meat of the eggplant, after it has been smoked and roasted, is pureed/mashed with a lot of tomatoes, garlic, onions, herbs, and spices to create a delicious creamy Eggplant Curry. You can enjoy it with some home-made whole wheat tortilla, Naan, rice, or serve it with pita chips and use it as a hot or cold dip.
Smoky, roasted eggplant is combined with spices, tomatoes, and fresh herbs to bring you this delicious family favorite curry!
Prick the outside of each eggplant a few times all the way around (I used a skewer).
Char the outside skin of each eggplant by placing them directly on the open flame of a gas burner. After 2-3 minutes or as the outside skin starts to char, rotate the eggplant so that it is evenly charred on all sides. Alternatively you can grill or roast the eggplant alone, but then you will NOT get the smokey flavor of the eggplant.
Place the smoked eggplants on a lined baking sheet (I used a silpat ) and place in the oven to roast for 20-30 minutes, or until they are completely soft. When they are done, you should easily be able to pierce a knife or poke a metal skewer into the core of the eggplant without any resistance.
Remove the eggplant from the oven and allow it to cool.
Split the eggplants in half lengthwise and scoop out the meat. Or simply peel the outer skin of the eggplant so that you are left with the inside meat. Discard the outer skin.
Place the meat of the eggplant into any blender (such as a vitamix). Pulse to chop/mash or roughly puree the eggplant. Note - I prefer to roughly puree the eggplant to have more of a smooth creamy texture, but I've also simply chopped and mashed the eggplant down with a masher or fork (instead of using a blender) and it tastes great either way, just depends on your preference.
In a non-stick pan, heat the cooking oil on medium heat. Add the black mustard seeds and asafetida (if using). Cook just until the seeds start to fry.
Add the finely chopped garlic, minced ginger, and minced fresh jalapenos (if using). Cook, mixing frequently, for ~30 seconds until fragrant. Be sure that the contents do not stick to the pan. If this happens, simply lower the heat or add more oil.
Add the chopped onions and saute until the onions start to become translucent, mixing frequently.
Add the chopped tomatoes, turmeric, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, fresh lemon juice, and salt. Combine and saute until the tomatoes and spices start to cook in (a few minutes).
Add the roughly pureed or mashed eggplant. Combine and mix well with the tomato-onion mixture for 1-2 minutes.
Taste and adjust the amount of salt or lemon juice if necessary. Saute for another 3-4 minutes, mixing frequently.
Add the freshly chopped cilantro. Turn off the heat and serve hot with you favorite whole wheat tortilla (home-made or store-bought), Naan, or rice. Enjoy!
Asafetida - Most brands combine asafetida with wheat. So omit for gluten-free option unless you are sure it is certified gluten-free.
Eggplant - If you do not have an open flame to smoke the eggplant, you can skip smoking the outer skin and simply roast in the oven. You will not get that smokey flavor, but the dish will still turn out delicious!
Hi Anjali. I love the smoked flavor of the eggplants! I learnt from my mother-in-law to add a teaspoon of ground peanuts and just a little tamarind paste toward the end.
The smoked flavor makes this dish awesome! Those sound like great additions to the dish, and I have both on hand! I'm making this again next week so I'll try it with your suggestions! Thank you!
I would say it's about 4 servings. Sorry...i'm in the process of updating all the recipes and including serving amounts.
How would you char it with an electric stove?
That'd be difficult...I don't think you can. Instead you can easily just roast it in the oven and it'd taste just as delicious! Just perhaps may have less of a smoky taste but still REALLY good. I've done that before as well.
My family doesn't like eggplants that much but with your recipe we like it.test good.
Thanks for trying it out! That's soo odd that it took that long to cook the eggplant...shouldn't be the case at all especially if you prepped it properly. Hmm...yeah maybe oven temperature. I typically use the pretty large italian eggplants when i can't find the smaller ones so size shouldn't be an issue. Plus, eggplant should cook quicker then that in the oven. Well glad you enjoyed it! This is definitely loved based on taste buds...if you're not used to the flavor profile, your kids may not. mine love it, but we're used to all those indian flavors :) Thanks so much for the review and trying it out!

Premiered months ago by What So Not, 'Waiting' is finally out for release. Everything is pretty much to the hilt as far as one's idea of a RL Grime-Skrillex-WSN collab goes. Bustling with grim vibes and phat basslines as we all know how good Skrillex & RL Grime are with bass, it's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.


so that the resulting cross sections are perfect circles?
Update, June 2008: Appeared in The Scottish Mathematical Council Journal #37, pp 62.
Answer: There are three ways to cut a torus (any torus) with a single plane in such a way that the resulting cross section consist only of circles. The first two solutions are fairly obvious, the third solution can be surprising. An example torus is given below followed by images illustrating the three cuts. The images here were all created using the following PovRay source code: torus.ini and torus.pov.
1. "Horizontal" slice resulting in two concentric circles.
where h is the distance of the cutting plane above the plane of the torus. Note that when the cutting plane is at a distance equal to the minor radius r2 then there is only one solution, at greater distances there are no solutions (the plane doesn't cut the torus).
2. "Vertical" slice resulting in two non-intersecting circles.
3. "Angle" cut resulting in two overlapping circles.
Radius of circle = r1. These are two of the so called Villarceau circles, the 4 Villarceau are the circles that pass through an arbitrary point on the surface of a torus.

The Pittsburgh Steelers agree with Joe Flacco -- they didn't play their toughest game when they lost to the Baltimore Ravens on Sept. 30.
"I really just felt we could have 28, 30, 35 points up out there at halftime," Flacco told reporters after the Ravens' 26-14 win. "It's not like today was the toughest Pittsburgh Steeler games I've ever played."
The Steelers are hoping to give Flacco a full-fledged reminder of how tough their AFC North rivalry can be when the two teams meet Sunday.
"I don't like that comment," safety Sean Davis said, per Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, "because I feel like [with] Baltimore [this] week, I'm already preparing my body as if there's going to be a bruising. We'll see if he has the same response after this game."
Flacco had a pretty straight-forward performance in the Ravens' Week 4 win over the Steelers, completing 28 of 42 passes for 363 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions in the victory. Given all the epic battles Flacco has engaged in over the years with the Steelers, it probably did rank among the easier games for the veteran quarterback.
Since that game, however, the Ravens and Steelers have been going in different trajectories. Baltimore has lost three of its last four and Flacco has struggled to replicate the numbers he was posting in September. The Steelers are unbeaten since their prime-time loss to the Ravens, tallying up wins over the Atlanta Falcons, Cincinnati Bengals and Cleveland Browns.
While the Ravens would like to forget about their sub-par October, the Steelers aren't letting Flacco's postgame comments drift away heading into Sunday.
"It was kind of shocking," Steelers guard Ramon Foster said of Flacco's comment. "He didn't feel like he was hit hard enough. We'll see how it goes. You don't really see a quarterback saying anything like that."

It was like stepping into a Western film. I did a double take. Is that a character played by Robert Redford hunched at the end of the bar, wearing a cowboy hat and nursing a beer? No, it is just a local rancher, stopping in for a drink at the end of hard day's work.
Augusta, Montana, feels like the Wild West. It is a small town—and a gateway city to the awesome expanses of the Bob Marshall Wilderness—made up of ranchers, fishermen, and families. The town has less than four hundred inhabitants and is famous for the Augusta American Legions Rodeo featuring a parade and competitions of roping, steer wrestling, bull riding, barrel racing, and more. And right in the center of Augustan life is the community hangout, the Buckhorn Bar.
On my road trip through the state, I stopped in for a bite to eat after a local friend suggested this bar to me. But I was anticipating what I found inside. Outside, you wouldn't think there was much to speak of behind a heavy metal door, painted with a brown silhouette of a buckhorn.
Inside, the wood beams of the ceiling are adorned with countless elk antlers donated by locals. In every direction are taxidermy wildlife—an owl, bears, wolves, and even a mountain lion. It is like a museum of wildlife, like nothing I've ever seen before in my life—the city slicker that I am.
Tammy Dellwo runs the Buckhorn Bar with her son and husband. She proudly showed me every corner of the space. She shared the microbrews on tap, the Montana landscape photography, the framed Native American arrowheads her family dug up, and the room in the back full of poker machines.
This is where many in Augusta come to gather after big events, after church, basketball games, celebrations, and just for fun. Tammy serves burgers, steaks, BLT's and roast chicken. In fact, she is known far and wide for her chicken smothered in a creamy white sauce.
Viewfinder Tip: To experience the Old West, be sure to pass through Augusta during the annual Augusta American Legions Rodeo—a local tradition of nearly 80 years.
On Friday and Saturday nights the place turns into a dance party—and a rowdy one at that. You might expect country here, but local here get down to hip hop and pop tunes too. On Sunday, during the day, the bar transforms into a family friendly establishment. And throughout the week, the Buckhorn Bar is a welcome respite for anyone needing a break.
The Buckhorn Bar seemed to me to be at the heart of local life in this gem of a small town in Montana—second to church, that is. And if you are like me, always trying to feel what real life is really like in a destination, this spot is not to be missed. To watch the video of my visit to the Buckhorn Bar, click here.

Goteberg Film Festival 2015: Far From Men is a sweeping but intimate epic
By Jordan McGrath

A two-man existential trek of bold ideas, David Oelhoffen's Far From Men (Loin des hommes) is a vigorous but melancholic examination of the Algerian War. Inspired and adapted from Albert Camus' short story 'The Guest', Oelhoffen's interpretation of the famed writer is a poetically compelling parable, dissecting the absurdity and cost of war, totalled not only in lives lost, but a bastardised national identity.
Far From Men's striking photography poignantly and ironically points out the power of a landscape much greater than the two men traversing across it, a power largely derived from an in-the-moment authenticity of time and place. Casting a judgementally cynical eye over the folly of war, Far From Men becomes a miniature epic, sweeping but intimate.
Set at the height of the Algerian war, Daru (Viggo Mortensen), an Algerian-born Frenchmen, spends most of his time educating children from the surrounding villages close to his isolated school in the Atlas Mountains. Once a Major in the French army, his peace is tenuous, for his ties to the military have not been fully cut. Daru's quiet lifestyle is disrupted by an army official who turns up on his door one day with a prisoner of war in tow, ordering that he escort this man named Mohammed (Reda Kateb) to the correct authorities to be put on trial for the murder of his cousin. Initially resistant to the task due to his new ethical stance on death sentences, Daru takes his marching orders and sets off with his charge across the mountains of war-torn Algeria.
Whether it's political leanings, religious beliefs, or violent oppression, wars are fought for many reasons, but ultimately the land underneath the soldier's feet is the thing being fought for. And yet, what never seems to be discussed is the land's indifference to any of these human atrocities. Oelhoffen's gorgeously captured Moroccan scenery (standing in for Algeria) imbues the billion-year-old terrain with the folly and insignificance of human conflict in the larger scale of existence on earth. In long shot after long shot, we watch Daru and his prisoner trudge through dusty, desolate vistas framed with Leone-esque gargantuanism, their insect-sized forms are slowly engulfed by the road travelled. The sustained atmosphere of dead calm is a humbling and haunting experience but, as Daru and Mohammed develop an unusual kinship, Oelhoffen's message soaks into the porous rocks all around them: humanity's ego is the true villain of war.
At one point Mohammed is granted his freedom by Daru but still chooses to face judgement. It is through his captive's selflessness and thoughts on war, that Daru discovers the importance of sacrifice and comes to the realisation that he must leave Algeria in order to be safe. These epiphanies register with powerful quietude on Mortensen's face, its own landscape into which all the complexities of his character are etched as well as larger ruminations on identity, heritage and violence. Viggo once again shows remarkable versatility, projecting all these emotions while speaking in French and Arabic throughout; two more languages to add to a growing collection of none-English speaking roles including the recent Jauja.
Far From Men contemplatively drifts without shying away from some of the more politically-fuelled aspects of the story, unafraid to penetrate a sensitive area of French-Algerian history. Oelhoffen's confidently composed writing is beautifully realised by equally impressive direction in this graciously weathered Western that's unassumingly gripping and refuses to let go.

Review: Paul Simon – Songwriter (Columbia Legacy, 2011)
Hyperbolium Posted On October 25, 2011
Paul Simon – Songwriter (Columbia Legacy, 2011)
This two-disc, thirty-two track collection (with a generous running time of 139 minutes) highlights the legendary songwriting of Paul Simon. The composer himself selected the tracks, touching on both hits and the lesser-known compositions of which he's most proud. The result is an idiosyncratic tour of Simon's catalog that will remind you of his broad commercial power, but key you into the depth of his craft as a writer. The selections focus almost entirely on Simon's post Simon & Garfunkel career, with only a solo live take of "The Sound of Silence" (the set's only previously unreleased track), Simon's 1991 Concert in the Park recording of "The Boxer," and Aretha Franklin's 1970 cover of "Bridge Over Troubled Water" reaching back to his duo work.
The bulk of the collection cherry-picks from Simon's solo albums, stretching from 1972's Paul Simon through this year's So Beautiful or So What. Selections from Simon's well-loved albums of the 1970s and his commercial renaissance sparked by Graceland will be familiar, but deep album cuts, picks from Hearts and Bones and Songs from the Capeman (including the excellent 50s-pastiche "Quality"), and his contribution to the soundtrack of The Wild Thornberrys Movie will be fresh to many listener's ears. The breadth of Simon's writing mirrors both his own maturation as a person and the evolution of the society in which he wrote. The reactionary outbursts of his early songs were stoked by youth and the turbulent times in which he was living; his early post-S&G years found him developing a solo personality and indulging his musical interests in reggae, doo-wop, and South American folk.
Simon's music has been as revelatory and memorable as his words, speedily evolving from the acoustic arrangements of the folk scene to sophisticated tapestries of instruments and genres. Decades before Graceland introduced African music to the American audience, Simon augmented his palette with American gospel, Peruvian folk and Jamaican reggae. He explored sounds from South Africa, Brazil and the American South, all the while embroidering his autobiographical, observational and imaginative lyrics with ideas drawn from his musical interests. His relationships seeded numerous songs, including ones of developing love ("Hearts and Bones"), family ("Father and Daughter" and "So Beautiful Or So What"), marital turbulence ("Darling Lorraine") and dissolution ("Tenderness"). His evolving view of society provided bookends to the American unrest with the angry "The Sound of Silence" and the haggard "American Tune."
Over the years, Simon's craft sharpened, his characters multiplied, his philosophical and emotional insights deepened, and his favorite lyrics became more impressionistic and poetic. But winningly, his music remained accessible as he teased apart new layers in existing forms and interwove the fresh threads if his ever-broadening musical grasp. Simon sees himself first as a songwriter, secondarily as a performer and recording artist, but as these recordings attest, his words, melodies, arrangements and estimable guitar playing are all deeply intertwined. Simon always surrounded himself with carefully picked players who add original colors to his songs with their instruments and voices. Listening to a set of his recordings, it's easy to appreciate the songwriter, but difficult to untangle that appreciation from the carefully crafted performances.
The set's booklet includes full lyrics, but no song notes by the author. Simon, most likely, sees the lyrics as the best possible explanation of the songs. Still, the stories behind the songs would have been an interesting extra. The absence of Simon & Garfunkel recordings leaves the listener to remember how Simon's first blaze of glory sounded; the words are here in three early songs, but as noted, Simon's lyrics are deeply wedded to his expression, which originally included Art Garfunkel. The set's forward is written by painter (and apparent Paul Simon superfan) Chuck Close, and the liner notes are by Tom Moon. Full musician, production and release credits are also included.

L.A. Screening of Iceland's Oscar Nomination
European Film Promotion will host screenings of 22 films submitted in the Best Foreign Language Film category for the 87th Academy Awards from October 29 through November 10 at the Wilshire Screening Room in Beverly Hills. Included among the screenings will be Iceland's 2015 Oscar nomination, Life in a Fishbowl, directed by Baldvin Zophoniasson. The screenings are open to Academy members, international buyers, selected press and LA-based industry.
Described by Variety as a "strongly acted, sensitively directed drama," the film follows the lives of a hardworking single mother, preschool teacher and call girl, Eik; an alcoholic novelist and poet, Mori; and an athlete-turned-international banker, Solvi on the eve of Iceland's 2008 financial crisis. Variety adds that "While these characters might have been mere stereotypes in other hands, Zophoniasson and co-writer Birgir Steinarsson give them nuance and depth."
Throughout the film, we slowly find out more about eachindividual's troubled past as their lives become increasingly intertwined. Life in a Fishbowl had its international premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival and received good reviews and an all-around positive reception from the public both at the festival and in cinemas in Iceland, according to Cinema Scandinavia.

Some kind Of social media after is a must for the majority of new companies. But, getting things moving past the starting blocks (and past a couple of followers who are mostly family and friends), can feel like an uphill battle.
CrowdFire came to my attention when I was searching For a way to develop my Twitter account. I've been using it myself now for several months, and I am quite happy with the results. I am so pleased to eventually get around to sharing them. So let's begin.
CrowdFire Is a web-based utility which"plumbs in" to your social media accounts. It also has performance for Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and Pinterest. CrowdFire makes it possible to automate the repetitive tasks involved in steadily growing a subsequent on social media.
By Way of Example, when I set up the Twitter Account for this website, I would spend some time every day identifying people in the house freelancing and working niches, and follow them in the hope they interact in the future and would follow me back. CrowdFire helps you makes it really fast to include them and find these people. Even more it makes it possible to keep tabs on those who are inactive and not really worth following or those who don't follow you straight back, so that you may keep the list of people you follow in check.
It does Plenty more besides; It finds relevant content you are able to share to help you maintain your account alive and busy, suggests tweaks to your own accounts to help them perform better, and does it all with an extremely contemporary"bot" style interface that only takes a few minutes each day to handle.
For Example, on a normal day, it is going to give me a choice of articles that is relevant to pick from to share on my timeline. It will suggest some accounts for me to unfollow in following me because they have not reciprocated. Next, I'll find a list of accounts that are proposed to follow because they've been talking about pertinent keywords, or since they're fans of folks in my markets.
On some Days, I'll acquire extra jobs, like feeding in much more relevant keywords, checking my automatic message to people who accompany me, or checking that the information in my"About" section remains relevant. Is that when the machine finds I maintain ignoring a job, it will give me the option of suspending it so it doesn't bother me with it for a short time.
What CrowdFire essentially does for me is Completely automate a task that has been previously taking 20 minutes a day (and frequently not getting done because of other pressures). But I can always grab two minutes each day to perform it.
Most Importantly, my follower rely on Twitter continues to grow at a fantastic rate, and climbs with applicable followersthey're people I already know are considering freelancing and homeworking.
It's also important to reemphasize that my Followers are. They are followers who retweet them interact with my articles, such as them and click through the site. This is important, since there's no point using a big follower number for dressing if none of those folks look at your content.
The numbers above prove that I can carry on doing What I'm doing and steadily increase my Twitter after (at least until I am following 5000 individuals ( if things get a bit more difficult). I have recently tipped over the 2000 mark, as you can see below!
All these Numbers make CrowdFire worth every cent. And it is likely to do this with the free version too — albeit in a dramatically slower pace, because of the follow / unfollow constraints.
Users who gave Crowdfire a Positive review stated that the program is a tool for scheduling posts on many social accounts from a single platform. They also shared that it permits them to easily track their community and add the followers of their competitors.
When I Sat down to write this, I knew drawbacks and I would fight, and in typing up it having reached this point, that stuggle stays!
1 recent change that's bugged me is that you used To be in a position to bang down on the mouse to trace or unfollow individuals. CrowdFire recently changed so that you now have to scroll down and click each green"and" icon in turn (as shown in the screenshot below).
This is Actually a fantastic thing, because it ensures you glance at who you are following. It stops you being idle and treating the whole thing as an exercise that is automatic. But it's made it all take a bit.
Review of Crowdfire on G2 Crowd stated that the program is his tool for managing the Twitter followers of his brand. He shared that his favorite feature is the one which permits him to add their opponents' followers for their list. He also added that Crowdfire includes a iPhone program that was great.

Yes. You can cancel your paid Subscription anytime and continue with your program that is canceled until the end of their current billing period. After that, your account will be converted to the Free plan.
You Will Need to wait until The end of your current billing period before you may upgrade or downgrade your paid subscription. You might speak to the Crowdfire support team from inside the app if you want the account modification.
It is Possible to test out what CrowdFire offers without spending any cash in any way, but as you can see from the above, you're confined to one account per social networking. You are also restricted in indicated content you're given to share, and in terms of how many people you can follow / unfollow daily.
Utilizing CrowdFire is a little bit of a"no brainer" if you are keen to develop your social media profile. It basically makes it possible to do the kind of things a social media agency would charge you for, but for free or at a low price.
It definitely pays dividends Who you're after, and it is always crucial that you supply your followers if you are going to keep them curious. Using CrowdFire doesn't do everything for you!

Researchers identify genes linked to the effects of mood and stress on longevity
The visible impacts of depression and stress that can be seen in a person's face—and contribute to shorter lives—can also be found in alterations in genetic activity, according to newly published research.
In a series of studies involving both C. elegans worms and human cohorts, researchers from the Indiana University School of Medicine and the Scripps Research Institute have identified a series of genes that may modulate the effects of good or bad mood and response to stress on lifespan. In particular, the research pointed to a gene known as ANK3 as playing a key role in affecting longevity. The research was published May 24, 2016 in the Nature Publishing Group journal Molecular Psychiatry, the top ranked journal in the field of psychiatry.
"We were looking for genes that might be at the interface between mood, stress and longevity", said Alexander B. Niculescu III, M.D., Ph.D., professor of psychiatry and medical neuroscience at the IU School of Medicine. "We have found a series of genes involved in mood disorders and stress disorders which also seem to be involved in longevity.
"Our subsequent analyses of these genes found that they change in expression with age, and that people subject to significant stress and/or mood disorders, such as people who completed suicide, had a shift in expression levels of these genes that would be associated with premature aging and reduced longevity" said Dr. Niculescu, who is also attending psychiatrist and research and development investigator at the Indianapolis Veterans Affairs Medical Center.
The research began with studies in C. elegans, a worm widely used in life sciences research. An earlier study by one of the study co-authors, Michael Petrascheck, Ph.D., of the Scripps Research Institute, found that exposing C. elegans to the antidepressant mianserin, which is used to treat mood and stress disorders, extended the animal's lifespan.
In the Molecular Psychiatry study, the researchers methodically conducted a series of analyses to discover, prioritize,
In C. elegans, 231 genes were identified whose activities were altered after administration of mianserin and for which there were 347 similar genes in humans.
The 347 human genes were cross-referenced with a genome analysis of data from 3,577 older adults to identify those genes that might be associated with depressive symptoms in humans, resulting in 134 genes that overlapped.
The 134 genes were prioritized for involvement in mood disorders and stress disorders, using the Niculescu lab's Convergent Functional Genomics approach and comprehensive databases of human and animal model genetic and gene expression studies in psychiatric disorders. The top scoring gene from the list was ANK3, which in recent years has become well known as playing a role in psychiatric disorders.
Returning to the C. elegans model, the researchers tested the effects of mianserin and of oxidative stress on worms with mutated—and therefore inactive—versions of the ANK3 gene, compared to non-mutated wild-type worms. ANK3 expression increases with age in worms. Mianserin maintains lower, youthful levels of ANK3 expression, but does require some ANK3 to be present for its effects on longevity. Thus, there seems to be a "Goldilocks" effect.
Next, using more than 700 blood samples from patients diagnosed with psychiatric disorders, as well as studying samples from the Marion County (Indianapolis, Ind.) Coroner's office of people who had committed suicide, the investigators found significantly higher levels of expression of ANK3 in older (middle aged) patients than in younger patients, and a shift towards higher ANK3 levels in those who had committed suicide. Higher levels of ANK3 have also been reported independently by others in individuals with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome, a form of accelerated aging.
Adding genes that had scored nearly as high as ANK3 in the Convergent Functional Genomics analysis to create a panel of biomarkers showed similar but somewhat stronger results, particularly among those who had committed suicide.
Mitochondrial dysfunction was the top biological pathway where the top candidate genes for mood and stress-modulated longevity mapped. Over the last decade, accumulating evidence has suggested a causative link between mitochondrial dysfunction and aging.
A few of the genes identified in this study are changed in opposite direction in longevity compared to previous reports in Alzheimer's disease, raising the possibility that the treatment of mood and stress disorders earlier in life might have an impact on later life Alzheimer's disease.
A large number of top genes identified in this study were changed in opposite direction in longevity compared to patterns of expression in suicide revealed by previous studies from the Niculescu group, suggesting the possibility of an evolutionary organismal "life switch", actively controlled by mood and stress.
Bioinformatics drug repurposing analyses revealed a series of compounds that may act on these genes and promote longevity, such as the relatively innocuous omega-3 fatty acid DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), piracetam, quercetin, vitamin D and resveratrol, along with a series of existing drugs, such as estrogen-like compounds, antidiabetics and rapamycin.
The authors said that "these studies uncover ANK3 and other genes in our dataset as biological links between mood, stress and lifespan, that may be biomarkers for biological age as well as targets for personalized preventive or therapeutic interventions."
