On Wednesday 1 November, a review of the experiences of families affected by Hillsborough was published, which calls for important changes in the response to state related deaths. As is clear in the title, 'The patronising disposition of unaccountable power': A report to ensure the pain and suffering of the Hillsborough families is not repeated, it echoes the experiences of many families we work with and outlines systemic changes for state and public bodies.
We are pleased to see the experiences of those at our family listening day, as well as issues raised in our submission, are reflected throughout. In a letter to our Director, Bishop James Jones said the evidence from the family listening day had influenced the report and that he had personally given a copy of the family listening day report to the Secretary of State for Justice.


To improve the shape and size of the calf when exercise alone can't achieve the desired look.
I went into the experience pretty scared. I've never done anything like this before but i was insecure about my club foot for as long as i can remember so i really wanted to have a procedure. Dr. Corbin and his staff made me feel extremely comfortable the entire time, they were very up front about the risks and quick to dissolve any concerns i had. I never felt pressured by them or just that they were after my money or anything like that. As for my surgery, it's everything i could have realistically hoped for. I wanted a more symmetrical look in my legs and that's what i got. It was pretty damn painful for about 2 weeks but after that, things healed nicely and i;m not feeling any of the effects. I would highly reccommend Dr. Corbin and his practice.
Dr berardi spent alot of time really listening to my concerns and also explained things thoroughly. The outcome was actually better than I expected with regards to the lift itself. I do have some concerns about the irregularity from fat grafting of thighs and back. It's early in my recovery so I will be patient and hope that it smooths out with time.
I was highly satisfied with my experience, I just wish that my calves would have developed more. I feel that the surgery was preformed well.

Trump Administration Extends Temporary Protected Status For Yemen Citizens
Published July 5, 2018 at 3:48 PM CDT
The Trump administration announced today that it will extend temporary protected status for immigrants from Yemen. The Department of Homeland Security previously said that it would end TPS for people from several other countries around the world, including Haiti and El Salvador. But the administration chose a different course for Yemen, which is embroiled in a brutal civil war. NPR's Joel Rose reports.
JOEL ROSE, BYLINE: The decision to extend TPS means more than 1,200 Yemenis can continue to live and work in the U.S. legally for at least another 18 months, people like Mohamed al-Amari (ph).
(SOUNDBITE OF COOKWARE CLANKING)
ROSE: Al-Amari works behind the counter at a deli in Manhattan a few blocks from Penn Station.
UNIDENTIFIED PERSON: Lettuce, mayo - light mayo, just a little bit - black pepper. Thank you.
MOHAMED AL-AMARI: You're welcome.
ROSE: Al-Amari says he works 10 hours a day, six days a week to pay his rent in Brooklyn and support his family back home in Yemen.
AL-AMARI: You know, my kids, my wife, my mom, my brothers - I have to, you know, because there's a war over there. There's nobody working there. You know, that's the problem.
ROSE: The civil war in Yemen has killed thousands and brought the country's economy to a standstill, and it's made it dangerous for people like al-Amari to go back. That's why the Department of Homeland Security decided to extend TPS for Yemen. Immigrants with TPS are allowed to live and work legally in the U.S. but only temporarily. The Trump administration is terminating TPS for hundreds of thousands of immigrants from other countries, including Haiti, El Salvador and Sudan. That raised concerns that they would do the same for Yemen. But today, former U.S. officials who've worked there are relieved.
BARBARA BODINE: This is an ongoing humanitarian catastrophe that may have been a factor in their decision.
ROSE: Barbara Bodine is a former ambassador to Yemen under Presidents Clinton and George W. Bush. She now directs the Institute for the Study of Diplomacy at Georgetown University. Bodine says TPS was originally granted for immigrants from Yemen in 2015 because of the civil war.
BODINE: And in the intervening three years, the situation has only gotten worse. This is not a situation where it's turning the corner in a positive way. It has gone off a cliff in a bad way.
ROSE: The number of Yemenis who already have TPS is not huge - roughly 1,250 according to the Department of Homeland Security. And the administration says it won't accept any new applicants for TPS unless they've been in the country since before 2017. The Yemeni-American community has already been hit hard by the president's immigration policies. The travel ban has made it nearly impossible for Yemenis to bring family members to the U.S. Mohamed al-Amari says his own brother is stuck in Yemen.
AL-AMARI: There's a lot of peoples like that. You know, somebody - they try to bring his kids. Somebody - they take his mom. It's not easy.
ROSE: But al-Amari says at least he knows he can stay in the U.S. through early 2020.
AL-AMARI: Nothing else - we're coming to work. It's a good country. I'd say the country is the best country in the world.
ROSE: If he didn't have TPS, al-Amari says he doesn't know what he would do, but going back to Yemen is not an option. Joel Rose, NPR News, New York. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Q: Installing qemu-guest-agent on a redhat vm without internet access I have a redhat 7.4 machine, and I'm installing a 7.2 VM on it. This isn't for production, 99.9% just for learning.
I've gotten the VM up and running, but now I'm trying to set up a qemu guest so that I can actually communicate with it. I'm following the instructions written out here, but I'm encountering an issue when I get to step 3 of procedure 11.1. When I write
yum install qemu-guest-agent

I get the following error message:
This system is not registered to Red Hat Subscription Management.
You can use subscription-manager to register.
There are no enabled repos.
You can enable repos with yum-config-manager --enable <repo>

I've tried following the instructions to enable repos with no success-- I get an error message informing me that I still need to register my product. Unfortunately, the host machine can't attach to the internet for security reasons (this is at my place of employment, so I have no means of changing that). So far as I can tell, I'll never be able to send anything to this VM except by flash drive (also not possible on the work machine) unless I can enable qemu operations.
How can I install qemu-guest-agent without registering the VM or getting internet access?

A dirt road connects the rural villages in Drakensbergen. We are on our way to a B&B to stay overnight, this Christmas. It's the end of the afternoon and the temperature is still getting to a mid summers 30 degrees. A group of young kids, with new colourful clothes gather in the middle of the road, when we pass they wave and yell, excited.
"It's Christmas!", my wife say's sitting next to me, she opens the car window when in a next curve of the road a group of boys and girls are dancing in front of the car, some of them are drunk. She is cursing loud when a tall boy is pretending to attack the car in a funny way. I hear she is excited and knows celebrations like this. "This is Christmas for us black people" she laughs, "Showing off on the street, new clothes, friends, trying to get a ride in a passing car. You see those girls, how beautiful they are dressed up, they will find a boyfriend tonight! And those small kids, I remember I once got a new dress when I was seven, I'll never forget that Christmas. We were so young and just slept outside when we got tired." The road is the meeting point for the night to come. Men dressed up nicely discussing life and preparing with a bottle of beer, the drinks to come. In frond of the small mountain houses women are busy preparing food. "They are baking already for day's. Muffins, fatcackes, biscuits and scones, my grandmother would wake up early and bake and cook for day's." We leave the village with its vibrant excitement behind us when the road brings us to our B&B and nice Christmas dinner. Just the two of us, talking, laughing and memorising Christmases of our youth long before we met. Mine with a Christmas tree, gifts under it and my father reading Christmas stories. How different from her Christmases in Thembisa, a township east from Johannesburg. Her father preaching that Christmas is about Christ and people gathering in a Mass, a Christ Mass.
The next morning we take the same road back. We see a young girl with a baby on her back, looking to some houses on the hill. "Probably her boyfriend did not come home yesterday, and she heard rumours…!!!!" my wife say's as if she knows everything what happened last night. " You see those mothers, they wonder where their girls are and discuss what they will do with them when they find them". There are no boy's and man on the road. " They sleep, Bhabhalazi. Today is boxing day, in the afternoon of 26 th. of December boxing fights will be organised, men will gamble and drink for the winner." A group of children carry empty beer crates, they are collecting beer bottles. The small kids are as vibrant as yesterday, for them every day should be Christmas day, shouting and running making fun and already enjoying their wealth to come when they will hand in the empty bottles at the shop. "See that girl?" My wife whispers."She is sitting on a rock, she lost her virginity last night, but did not remember to who and if she used a condom or not, now she thinks she might be pregnant and HIV positive, poor thing." It was quite a Christ Mass.

The original Cousin's Candy Shop in Virginia City, Montana was founded in 1970. Judy bought it from the retiring owners in 1987.
Judy, a native Californian, had taken an early retirement after working for an airline for 20 years and needed a second career. She'd always had the dream of being in business for herself, and while visiting a friend in Montana discovered the candy shop was for sale. The rest is history and after seeing firsthand how all the world loves candy, she decided a second location would be another dream come true.
She began considering California, partly because she was from there, and also, with her retirement agreement with the airlines, knew she could easily commute between the two locations. After researching various locations, in 1999 she finally settled on Old Town San Diego State Historic Park. Now that Judy's kids are grown and gone, she can be even more mobile. She now spends summers in Montana and winters in San Diego. She truly believes she has the best of both worlds.
Old Town, San Diego is considered the "birthplace" of California. It was here that Father Serra came more than 200 years ago to establish the very first mission in a chain of 21 missions that were to be the cornerstones of California's colonization. Father Serra's mission and Presidio were built on a hillside overlooking what is currently known as Old Town, San Diego.

Starvation without water and food are the main methods of therapeutic starvation. If the second method is more or less clear, then the procedure without water requires some clarification. Dry fasting is a complete refusal from food and drinks.
The lack of food and also water causes increased fat splitting, which goes not only to cover the energy needs, but also to get the liquid. Moisture is one of the products of the decomposition of fat. Our body is unable to fully cope with harmful substances and excess salts, and hides some of them in fatty deposits. Destroying excess fat, we thereby get rid of a large amount of toxins. There are a number of diseases in which dry fasting can help. This is hypertension, the onset of atherosclerosis, ischemic heart disease, bronchial asthma, functional diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, and many others. Rejuvenation deserves a separate conversation.
There are contraindications to this type of procedure, like to starvation without food. It is categorically forbidden for malignant neoplasms, active tuberculosis, endocrine system diseases, hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, hepatic and renal insufficiency, etc. Even having a good health, in order not to harm yourself, you need to be careful with dry fasting.
I lead a healthy lifestyle. I do not have bad habits and eat exclusively fresh and thermally unprocessed food. Every day I go in for sports: at the moment it is bikram yoga and running, and I also meditate and do spiritual practices every day. Periodically I cleanse the body: my favorite procedure is hydrocolonotherapy. I take three procedures a month. I also drink triplets to get rid of parasites, and a lot of green fresh juices that are great for detox. To cleanse the liver, I drink beets and carrots juices.
What kinds of starvation do you practice?
There are 52 weeks in a year. Every week I practice dry fasting for 36 hours. The day after dry fasting, I drink only water, the result is 52 days on water and 52 days of dry fasting every year. I have been practicing this fasting for the second year already. It all started with starvation eating coconuts and drinking plain water. I started fasting once a week and then gradually went to dry fasting. I also practiced long fasting. My maximum is a week with food, and three days without water.
How to get into and out of fasting?
You can not eat meat the day before, and you do not even have to drink water on the day you are fasting. There should be the correct input and the correct output. When you start, you can not eat or drink the next 36 hours. On the day you continue fasting, you can drink only water. The rest of the time I eat fruits and drink fresh juices. This is my diet.
Breatharianism is when you do not eat or drink. Ideally, there should not be any contact with water at all (that means you can not even take a shower). Earlier, when I was just starting fasting, I did not do it so severely, as I spent days on starvation just like my other days. I went in for sports, worked, studied, traveled - I needed a shower. I am a very clean person and I can not afford not to go to the shower after an active day. Now I decided to do everything really as needed - without contact with water. I spend days on starvation at home, doing various household chores. On this day, I do not go out to avoid excess pollution, and do not go in for sports.
How does fasting work on the physical and mental level?
I practice fasting for cleansing at all levels (physical and mental). On the physical side, purification processes are started, the healing effect and detoxification begins. During dry fasting they are even more active than when drinking water. At the mental level, energy channels and consciousness are purified. We are more consciously begin to treat our thoughts, we begin to realize what we eat, and there are less, because we control ourselves and our thoughts. Our food becomes more conscious. I have always been interested in my consciousness. Its purification takes place in this way.
How to choose the time for fasting?
You can practice fasting, observing austerities and dedicating them to something. For example, every day of the week is responsible for a certain planet: Sunday for the Sun, Saturday for Saturn, Monday for the Moon. If we want to pull the power of a planet, we can go hungry once a week, and its influence will increase. You can also practice fasting on Ekadashi, new moon, lunar eclipse or full moon. I do just that. On such days I always starve. Sometimes both Ekadashi and New Moon cab be in a week - then I starve both days. It happens that in the week there is no full moon, no eclipse, then I just choose my day and the planet (for example, Venus).
What are the advantages of dry fasting?
At this time, the body can get rid of slag, mucus, free fats, circulating in the blood. In addition, fats are actively burned in problem areas. Various weakened and diseased cells and tumors are splitting. During fasting, a person begins to think more positively, humbly, it is easier for him to forgive offenses, to understand other people. Starvation can heal a person from any disease. Of course, this is a huge saving. 52 days a year only of breatharianism and 52 days drinking water help to save a decent amount that you can spend on yourself, and not on food.
Are there any disadvantages to starvation?
Fasting has no disadvantages, as it seems to me. It is just when people start to starve, it is very hard for them. Their head, legs, arms or something else can start hurting. All this says only that the body is very slagged and toxins leave it. That's all. This means that you need to clean, clean and clean again. At the moment I have no negative symptoms at all: no headache, no pain in arm or legs. For me, fasting day is a normal day. However, beginners can face difficulties. After all, they never skip breakfast, lunch or dinner, but they should eat nothing the whole day. If a person can not cope with this, then it means that his thoughts control his body. Of course, you need to understand why you are doing this. If you do everything consciously, then there will be no problems. I see only advantages and I am practicing dry fasting once a week.
Why is this not suitable for those who want to lose weight?
Fasting can cure people from diabetes, cancer, because all diseases are just mucks that we have absorbed into ourselves, eating all kinds of harmful foods. All this just needs to be removed from the body with starvation. I have not brought myself to such a state, so I simply starve for prevention. I do not do it for weight loss. If you want to starve to lose weight, then this is the wrong motivation. To do this, you have to go in for sports, and not starve.

Why Florida's distracted driving laws may not be enough
While Florida does have a statewide texting ban in place, many people continue to engage in the behavior.
The Florida Department of Transportation and Florida Highway Patrol recently launched a targeted campaign to reduce distracted driving. According to CBS Miami, the effort focuses on all types of behavior, including cell phone use while driving as well as eating, changing the radio station and grooming.
It is a well-known fact that certain distractions can lead to serious car accidents. Florida currently has laws on the book addressing texting; however, there are many other behaviors take away a driver's focus. Further, some believe that the current laws are not comprehensive enough.
Current Florida law
According to Florida Law, Statute 316.305 listed below, no driver may text while behind the wheel. The law is secondary, which means that law enforcement officers may not pull over drivers solely based on spotting the behavior. Some critics believe that the texting ban should be enforceable on a primary basis.
While many other states have addressed the use of handheld and hands-free devices, Florida has yet to do so. Therefore, drivers can still talk on their phones either holding the device or using an in-car infotainment system. As a study from the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety demonstrates, the use of hands-free technology can be just as distracting as manually sending a text message. Advocates of stricter laws note that prohibiting certain drivers – such as teen and other novice motorists – from using hands-free and hand-held devices could help to reduce the number of distracted driving accidents.
Other distractions
Laws also do not address the many other distractions in which drivers can engage. Distraction.gov points out that the following behaviors all constitute as an activity that keep a driver from focusing on the road:
Using a GPS system or reading maps
Talking to other people in the vehicle
Each of these can be classified as a manual, visual or cognitive distraction, or a combination of those. Eating, for example, requires a driver to take at least one hand off the wheel. Talking to passengers can mentally distract a driver. Texting while driving comprises all three aspects.
A growing trend
Even with the laws in place, drivers in Florida continue to text while driving. The state legislature passed the ban in 2012. Since then, according to the Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, crashes related to distracted driving have actually increased by 25 percent.
A CNBC reports that the data reflects a national trend. Every day, nine people die as a result of distracted driving. Further, the boom in cellphone use across the country is happening as more motor vehicle accidents have been tied to the behavior.
Part of the solution is to let people know how dangerous driving distracted can be. Anyone who has questions about Florida's distracted driving laws should contact a personal injury attorney.
Florida Statute 316.305 Wireless communications devices; prohibition.-
(1) This section may be cited as the "Florida Ban on Texting While Driving Law."
(2) It is the intent of the Legislature to:

As used in this section, the term "wireless communications device" means any handheld device used or capable of being used in a handheld manner, that is designed or intended to receive or transmit text or character-based messages, access or store data, or connect to the Internet or any communications service as defined in s. 812.15 and that allows text communications. For the purposes of this paragraph, a motor vehicle that is stationary is not being operated and is not subject to the prohibition in this paragraph.
(b) Paragraph (a) does not apply to a motor vehicle operator who is:
1. Performing official duties as an operator of an authorized emergency vehicle as defined in s. 322.01, a law enforcement or fire service professional, or an emergency medical services professional.

5. Conducting wireless interpersonal communication that does not require manual entry of multiple letters, numbers, or symbols, except to activate, deactivate, or initiate a feature or function.
6. Conducting wireless interpersonal communication that does not require reading text messages, except to activate, deactivate, or initiate a feature or function.
7. Operating an autonomous vehicle, as defined in s. 316.003, in autonomous mode.
(c) Only in the event of a crash resulting in death or personal injury, a user's billing records for a wireless communications device or the testimony of or written statements from appropriate authorities receiving such messages may be admissible as evidence in any proceeding to determine whether a violation of paragraph (a) has been committed.
(4)(a) Any person who violates paragraph (3)(a) commits a noncriminal traffic infraction, punishable as a nonmoving violation as provided in chapter 318.
(b) Any person who commits a second or subsequent violation of paragraph (3)(a) within 5 years after the date of a prior conviction for a violation of paragraph (3)(a) commits a noncriminal traffic infraction, punishable as a moving violation as provided in chapter 318.
(5) Enforcement of this section by state or local law enforcement agencies must be accomplished only as a secondary action when an operator of a motor vehicle has been detained for a suspected violation of another provision of this chapter, chapter 320, or chapter 322.

Rainn Wilson and Wife Holiday Reinhorn Share a Son, Walter McKenzie
Actor Rainn Wilson married writer and producer Holiday Reinhorn on June 30, 1995, at an intimate-feeling wedding ceremony at the Kalama River, Wash. They were first introduced to each other during an acting class at the University of Washington — and the rest was history. But do Rainn and Holiday have any kids?
Rainn Wilson and Holiday Reinhorn have a teenage son.
Rainn and Holiday welcomed their first and only son, Walter McKenzie, in 2004.
Unfortunately for fans, the couple tends to be fairly protective of his privacy — they only share updates on their latest adventures on a sporadic basis.
As devoted travel lovers, Rainn, Holiday, and Walter McKenzie often visit coveted vacation destinations like the Westfjords peninsula in northwestern Iceland and bustling metropolises like London, U.K.
Rainn and Holiday are based in suburban Los Angeles, a recent video by Architectural Digest reveals.
There's little information available on where Walter McKenzie goes to school, what his hobbies might be, and whether he has any plans to follow in his parents' footsteps after graduation, however.
Rainn and his wife, Holiday, celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary in 2020.
"Happy Anniversary to my favorite masked man. It's been a ride of many wonders and twists and turns, but as the poets like to say — if we weren't supposed to dance...why all this music?" Holiday wrote on an Instagram post shared on July 1, 2020.
The stars first met while they were still in college, but they didn't start dating right away.
According to an article in Good Housekeeping, Rainn spent a considerable chunk of time reminiscing about his first encounter with Holiday before gathering the courage to look her up in the white pages.
But once they went on a date, he knew he found something special.
"I don't believe in love at first sight — it simply doesn't make sense — but that's what happened to me on that night," Rainn reportedly wrote in his 2015 memoir, The Bassoon King: My Life in Art, Faith, and Idiocy.
"My wife of 23.7 years @HolidayReinhorn and I were kooky, artsy bohemians in NYC when we first got together in the '90s," Rainn captioned an Instagram post shared on April 15, 2018.
"We survived on pizza, falafel, beef with broccoli, and scrambled eggs for years, living barely above the poverty line — doing theater and writing strange things. We walked our pitbull, read books, saw experimental plays, listened to Wilco, and stayed up until 2 every night," he added.
A post shared by Rainn Wilson (@rainnwilson)
"And, obviously, we had matching red scarves. This was back when one could be poor and live in New York. It was a glorious time — growing up with a glorious, fierce woman!" Rainn added later on in the post.
While Rainn works as an actor, writer, and producer, Holiday divides her time between writing short stories and screenplays for shorts like PUSH. Her 2005 book, titled Big Cats garnered a great deal of critical acclaim. It was reviewed by Believer Magazine, Publishers Weekly, and more.

Gryfe's Bagels
Gryfe's Bagels has, in my opinion, the best bagels in the city . Bold statement, I know. But I have yet to find another bakery in Toronto that makes bagels that are just as delicious plain as they are toasted and smothered with cream cheese. Gryfe's Bagels need no adornment. They're fluffy and light, often devoured in just a few bites, and I think best eaten when slowly ripped apart.
Toronto has been trying to crack Gryfe's secret for over 50 years. "It's TLC," manager Annabelle Villa-Real tells me as she cracks a grin. Alas, I won't be the one to get the scoop.
The bakery was opened back in 1957 by Arthur and Ruth Gryfe. After they passed away, son Moishe took the helm and now runs the North York bakery, which can produce upwards of 1,000 dozen bagels on any given day. And that's the focus: bagels. While there are several varieties (poppy seed, flax seed, whole wheat, multigrain: $7.20/doz), as well as homemade mini pizzas ($5.75/pkg), and a few sandwich options (though not available on weekends), Gryfe's is not a hangout space. There's no seating, little dĂŠcor, stark walls, and a cash-only checkout.
"There's nothing fancy here," Villa-Real says. "Even we're not fancy," she says smoothing out her apron. "But that's how people know us."
Gryfe's is also famous for its weekend lineups. Villa-Real says they used to start at around 8:00 a.m., until people started coming earlier to try to beat the crowd. Unfortunately, everyone had the same idea, and now the lineups are formed by about 6:00 a.m. "Out the door and around the corner!" she tells me. "Even in the winter, when it's snowing, they still line up."
On the plus side, the line will take you to everything you need for a weekend brunch. Gryfe's has a variety of cream cheeses, eggs, juice, and specialty jams imported from Israel ($4.99) in store. And if you're not in the area, chances are you can pick up a Gryfe's bagel somewhere else in the city.
Villa-Real starts listing off some of the places that carry their bagels. "Pusateri's, Daiter's, Grace Meats, Nortown, Villa Foods, Bruno's, Kitchen Table..." She actually goes on for another minute or two. I catch "Toronto Cricket Club" and "Holt Renfrew Bloor" somewhere in there too. "People just like our bagels, I guess," she says. And I'd have to agree. True to their mantra, Gryfe's simply "just tastes better."

"Love and Mercy: Faustina", a docudrama on Divine Mercy and the mission of Sr. Faustina Kowalska, reveals previously unknown facts and recently disclosed documents that shed new light on the truth of the Divine Mercy message. As many know, the Divine Mercy is a devotion to Jesus Christ associated with the apparitions of Jesus to Sr. Faustina in Poland in the 1930s. Jesus urged Sr. Faustina to paint an image according to the pattern that she had seen, and requested to have the image venerated, first in the sisters' chapel, and then throughout the world. The venerated image under this Christological title refers to what Sr. Faustina's diary describes as "God's loving mercy" towards all people, especially for sinners. Scientific analysis included in the film indicates that Sr. Faustina indeed saw the Lord Jesus. Cooperating with the Kondrat-Media team, a group of experts found letters of Fr. Michał Sopoćko (Sr. Faustina's confessor), and, while browsing forgotten archives, they found additional previously unknown documents. To a large extent, "Love and Mercy: Faustina" can contribute to fulfilling Jesus' promise that "the spark that will prepare the world for My final coming" will come from Poland (Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska, 1732).

This paper proposes a new pattern recognition system employing optical joint transform correlation (JTC) technique which offers a great number of advantages over similar digital techniques, including very fast operation, simple architecture and capability of updating the reference image in real time. The proposed JTC technique incorporates a synthetic discriminant function (SDF) of the target image estimated from different training images to make the pattern recognition performance invariant to noise and distortion. It then involves four different phase-shifted versions of the same target SDF reference image, which are individually joint transform correlated with the given input scene. When the correlation signals are combined, it produces a single cross-correlation peak corresponding to each potential target present in the given input scene. The proposed technique also includes a fringe-adjusted filter to generate a delta-like correlation peak with high discrimination between the target and the background noise. The pattern recognition performance is further enhanced by incorporating the color information of the target objects in the proposed technique. The proposed technique is investigated using computer simulation where it shows efficient and successful target detection performance in different complex environments.

21 and 22 April 1990 - An international conference was held at which the Mahdi presided. Some 200 dignitaries were able to accept Maitreya's invitation over two days. Among the guests were an Ambassador and other diplomats; members of Parliament; religious representatives, including a Bishop and a representative from the Vatican who had already met Maitreya and was totally convinced He was the Christ; a King and other lesser royals; professors; scientists; industrialists; and about 40 journalists. During this time, a documentary film was made in which Maitreya talked about His plans and teachings, His mission and hopes for the world. It was accepted for showing on a major television network in the United States, but was never broadcast.


Well here I am sat back home admittedly suffering from post Manaslu race blues ..what an awesome race it turned out to be with amazing people!! I wanted and expected a tough race and tough ..brutally tough is what I got by the bucket load.
The Race Itself was a 7 stage over 8 days mountain foot race along the Manaslu trekking trail ( Manaslu Mountain being the 8th highest in the world ). The distance stated was 212km running and about 30 km trekking required although the final distance ran was closer to 220+ km .. the race boasted High altitude ..taking us up to 5100 meters, most of the event being ran between 2700 meters and 4400 Meters and it didn't disappoint there … on average there was at least 2-3000 meters of ascent & descent on each stage ..I ran my Garmin for the first two stages which recorded just under 10,000 meters of elevation gain & loss for both stages ..so you can imagine how tough the rest of the stages were as we climbed higher !!
The race was semi self supported, you were required to carry a safety first aid kit for the mountains, warm clothing in case you were out long after sun down or stuck on the trail or any length time before being rescued..plus food for the day which had to include 1200 calories in gels and bars plus a packed lunch supplied each day and 2 ltrs of water… you were also allowed to have a further bag carried by the porters to each stage .. weight 7kg ..so other essentials and sleeping back could be carried, but there was also no guarantee the porters would make it to the stage point, the temperatures dropped considerably after sun down ..so you had to be prepared in case of this ..so it was prudent to carry all your warm clothing in the end plus rations for the next day just in case !! I used an OMM 20ltr which proved great and generally weighed between 5-8 kg with all my gear.
At the end of every stage a traditional Nepali style meal would be supplied plus breakfast the next day, this I thought was a nice touch as it added to the keeping with the cultural aspect of the race ..also added to the challenge ..dealing with rural Nepal's hygiene problems required a cast iron stomach.
The Race attracted a wide range of competitors experience wise .. from Legends in the endurance world, Lizzy Hawker ( 2nd Place )& Lisa Tamati … seasoned professional GB marathon runner Holly Rush ( 3rd place ) … as well as very experienced & Talented local mountain runner Upendra Sunuwar (1st place ) …and vastly experienced adventure racers, ultra mountain runners, multi day veterans, seasoned marathon runners & Iron man competitors ..mountain trekkers..right the way down to those with very little experience and there to challenge themselves…as this was the first time the race was run, no one really new what to expect difficulty wise.
In all Honesty I was going to write a day to day ..stage by stage account of the race, but in the end and after writing lots then reading what I'd written I felt my words nor pictures did the run justice. Plus also this way I get to leave the race with an air of mystery for those wanting to take part in the future. For Reference though The Manaslu Trekking Circuit alone if you research will show that its a tough endurance trek, with a recommend duration of 18-21 days to complete… you will be required to that and more in 8 days.
The Scenery will blow you away if you have never been to Nepal thats for sure…you will be humbled amongst the vast size of the mountains and valleys you will be running and the terrain will constantly be challenging and tough throughout every stage with no reprieve. The Altitude and shear ascents and descents will leave you breathless and your lungs and body aching for oxygen and Freezing Temperatures at night will keep you awake ..leaving you emotional and tired in the mornings.
Bottom line I believe only 17 people completed the full race course out of the 40 or so runners, 6 people had to be helicoptered out due to altitude related illness and exhaustion …so in my eyes as my first multi day ..this one ticked all my boxes, it was breath taking & stunning ..Brutal & challenging ..emotional & exhausting ..which is my perception of what multi day race should be all about. Unfortunately I have nothing yet to compare it to Race wise, but from other competitors that have ..they all put this race up there as one of the toughest … so if you are looking to test your self then this is definitely for you ..I will be running it again either next year or the year after that is for sure. My only tip is do not take it lightly, prepare well and prepare tough.

Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder are expected to step inside the squared circle during the fall in a title unification match. Joshua is currently being listed as a -225 favorite with Wilder coming back at +175.
Wilder, the current WBC champion, has said he has agreed to take on Joshua – the current WBA, IBF and WBO champion – in the United Kingdom. Though the bout has not been officially announced – Wilder just said he took the bout on his Instagram account – the winner would be the first undisputed heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis in 2000.
Joshua is perhaps more naturally gifted than any heavyweight we have seen in some time. AJ has devastating power with 20 of his 21 career wins coming by knockout – with 16 opponents never seeing the fourth round. The former Olympic gold medalist really showcased his fundamentals in his most recent victory over Joseph Parker when he showed off his impressive jab and looked more defensively sound than in previous bouts.
Wilder is not going to be confused for a ring tactician but "The Bronze Bomber" is a perfect 40-0 – with 39 of the wins coming via knockout – thanks to the massive power in his hands. Wilder throws everything with violent intentions and is constantly on the hunt to finish the fight. That being said, he can be outboxed based on pure technique – see his most recent fight vs Luis Ortiz. However, Wilder is never out of a fight thanks to his power and grit.
This is legitimately one of the best matchups in all of boxing. One would think that Joshua's movement and jab should be able to keep Wilder at bay for the bulk of the bout but Wilder can lay waste to any opponent within an instant. And we have also seen Joshua on the mat when he fought Wladimir Klitschko.

John McCain Says Calling Donald Trump Supporters 'Crazies' Is a 'Term of Endearment'
"It was meant in jest," Arizona Senator says

John McCain explained to Bill O'Reilly on Thursday why he called Donald Trump supporters "crazies" — a term he considers endearing.
"It was meant in jest," the Arizona Senator told the Fox News host. "I view it as a term of endearment," he continued, adding he's been called crazy by hecklers at town halls and it's all part of the political game.
The comment McCain made set Trump off, prompting him to belittle the former prisoner of war's service during the Vietnam War.

"He's a war hero because he was captured," Trump said Saturday. "I like people who weren't captured."
The comments sparked a national firestorm, with Trump put on the defensive as political and media analysts panned him across party lines.

Trump walked back the comments slightly during a flurry of media appearances in recent days, stressing that he thinks McCain is a war hero but arguing he hasn't done enough to help struggling veterans.

Analysis: Coexistence projects are key to building peace
Posted on 20 July, 2017 14 December, 2017 by lfiIsrael
This article by LFI chair Rt Hon. Joan Ryan MP first featured in the JewishNews. Click here to read it.
This week's announcement by the government that it will invest up to £3 million over the next three years in coexistence projects which bring together Israelis and Palestinians represents a huge step forward in Labour Friends of Israel's five-year campaign to secure more investment in this vital work.
More importantly, it is a massive boost to the Israelis and Palestinians who are building the foundations of a future peace settlement by promoting the values of reconciliation and trust through such people-to-people projects. I have met many of them in truly inspiring projects like MEET (Middle East Entrepreneurs of Tomorrow), One Voice and the Parents Circle Families Forum.
It has been a long and sometimes bumpy road. Last year, Britain's already pitiful investment in coexistence work – around £150,000 a year – was cut entirely. However, sustained pressure from LFI parliamentary supporters – in particular, my colleague Ian Austin – means that ministers now appear to have seen the light. This was never a partisan issue, so I thank Priti Patel, whom Ian and I met late last year to press the case, for listening and acting.
It's very easy to see people-to-people projects as simply a fluffy add-on to the peacemaking efforts of politicians and diplomats. In reality, the civil society element of peace-building is just as important as the political and economic dimensions. It is thus about very practical politics: how to garner the necessary public support for any future agreement and how to ensure that that agreement can weather the challenges it will inevitably face.
We know that coexistence projects work. Robust evaluations detailed in last week's report by BICOM on peacebuilding show that people-to-people work significantly improves Israeli and Palestinian participants' attitudes to one other.
We know this, too, from the example of the International Fund for Ireland, which has invested more than €900 million in 6,000 civil society peace-building programmes over the past 32 years. As Jonathan Powell, Tony Blair's former chief negotiator in Northern Ireland, argued recently: "While every conflict has different causes and solutions, we know from Northern Ireland that long-term grassroots peacebuilding between the contending parties is always essential to achieving peace."
But EU and US investment in such projects in Ireland is at least 15 times greater than that invested in Israel-Palestine, despite the population of Northern Ireland being less than 15 percent of that of Israel, the West Bank and Gaza combined.
We need to make Britain's announcement a catalyst for closing this gap. That's why, along with our friends in the Alliance for Middle East Peace, LFI last year launched a campaign to establish an International Fund for Israeli-Palestinian Peace. It would aim to leverage and invest $200 million in people-to-people work split roughly equally between the US, Europe, other international partners including the Arab world, and the private sector.
In January, I garnered cross-party backing for a 10-minute rule bill urging the government to support the creation of the fund. I've been to Washington to push a similar bill on Capitol Hill. This week, the US House of Representatives agreed a significant $10 million investment.
LFI now has three goals: first, to monitor the implementation of the UK's new investment, second, to persuade ministers to use Britain's clout overseas to get the International Fund off the ground, and third, we will continue to push the government to hold the Palestinian Authority accountable for incitement, particularly that targeted at children and young people. That way we can ensure that all our international development spending supports the fostering of a culture of peace.

Whether you're a seasoned scuba diver or a holiday snorkeller, Hawaii offers a wonderful world to explore under the sea.
South Kona is sheltered by the mountainous Maunaloa, making the waters on the south west side of Hawaii Island calm and clear. A perfect example of this is at beautiful Honaunau Bay, also called Two-steps. This refers to a spot on the shoreline where volcanic rock has been neatly worn away into a convenient "two-step" entry point for divers and snorkellers. An abundant variety of fish and honu (Hawaiian green sea turtles) can be seen in the warm waters. Honaunau Bay is also located nearby Puuhonua o Honaunau National Historic Park. Once a place of refuge for Hawaiian lawbreakers; this expansive historic park offers an intimate glimpse into the fascinating local culture.
Molokini is a small, crescent shaped volcanic atoll off the South Maui coast, accessible only by yacht. The waters here offer bustling, colourful reefs, perfect for diving; in fact, they are so rich with life, the Molokini Crater was titled a State Marine Life and Bird Conservation District. Here divers can visit a sunken Carthaginian replica of a 19th century supply vessel, specifically placed to create an artificial reef for underwater creatures. It is popular with reef sharks, stingrays, countless schools of fish and even has an eel living on the bow!
