Watch Alabama Signee Collin Sexton Hit a Buzzer Beater to Win Region Championship
Ben George Published: February 13, 2017
Alabama signee Collin Sexton continues to show why he's considered one of the top players in the class of 2017.
The five-star guard returned from a concussion and came off the bench in Pebblebrook's region championship game against rival Westlake on Saturday. This was a rematch of last year's Georgia Class AAAAAA state championship game that Pebblebrook lost, and Sexton stole the show with a 43-point effort and a buzzer beater to force overtime.
The sequence begins at the 14:35 mark in the video at the top of the page. Pebblebrook was inbounding the ball from near halfcourt with just one second on the clock and down 74-71. With just enough time to catch and shoot, Sexton received the pass about 30 feet from the basket.
Even with three defenders on him, Sexton rose up and delivered the huge buzzer beater to force overtime. Here's another angle of the shot.
His team would eventually go on to win the game, 87-83. Pebblebrook will face Lassiter in the first round of the GHSA Class AAAAAA playoffs on Saturday.

Kitchen design trends change over the years, but one thing that always remains the same is the need for practicality. Whether kitchens are made from wood or granite, whether they're shiny or matt, sleek good looks and ease-of-use always come first. Or at least they do most of the time. We've curated a collection of the most colourful, the artiest and the most downright ridiculous kitchens on the whole of the internet. You might not be about to try to copy them in your own home, but they're a lot of fun to look at.
Why build a kitchen from wood or MDF when you can use the world's favourite building brick? This Lego kitchen island and matching chair were created by Parisian design duo Munchausen, also known as Simon Pillard and Philippe Rosetti. How long did that take? Truth is that the designers actually bought a ready-made kitchen island and covered it in Lego bricks (and did the same with the legs of an existing chair). The painstaking task of covering took a week of work and 20,000 bricks, which begs the question: just how long would it take to build a kitchen island entirely from Lego? And how many bricks would it take?
If you thought sticking 20,000 Lego bricks to a kitchen island was intricate, you won't believe what artist Liza Lou did to give this colourful kitchen its shimmering good looks. Over a period of five years, Lou covered the entire, life-sized set with literally millions of tiny glass beads (also known as seed beads or love beads). From splashing water cascading from the tap to detailed logos on branded food, Lou thought of absolutely everything. She learnt her beading skills from African craftspeople, for whom bead art is an important tradition. Imagine putting all those beads in place with tweezers. Every. Single. One. You couldn't cook much in this kitchen, but it's undeniably very impressive indeed.
Ever feel like you can't be bothered to do the washing up? Now imagine if someone came along and turned your whole kitchen upside down, dirty pots, clattering pans and all. That's what happened at Zeger Meyer's Rotating Kitchen art installation in Germany. As the audience looked on, a cook began to prepare a meal in an open-fronted, cube-shaped kitchen. She then stepped away, for what seemed like a break, and the room began to spin on an axis. Every 15 minutes, the kitchen spun a full 360 degrees. Cupboards flew open, crockery smashed and food spattered all over the walls, creating a cacophony of sound, a heady mixture of smells and a right mess. Meyer said he wanted to reimagine the world as a kitchen and the kitchen as a world. Pity the poor person whose job it was to clean up at the end.
Traditional crafts were combined with a very modern trend to create this colourful kitchen for an exhibition at Warwick Art Gallery. Yarn-bombing is an international street art craze whereby inanimate objects such as trees and stair rails are given bright, knitwear covers. Here, the yarn-bombing craze came inside, as 50 artists collaborated over a period of seven months to create this crocheted and knitted kitchen. Just like Liza Lou's beaded kitchen, every detail has been thought of, from a tassel 'splash' at the tap, to the trio of decorative ducks on the walls. Once again, you wouldn't be able to use this kitchen in real life, but you can spend a long time looking at it and spotting the incredible details.
Reddit user thepassionofthechris had a sleek, modern kitchen, but he decided that he wanted to make it more colourful. Over a period of five years, he collected bottle tops from family and friends, until he had a huge collection that would cover enough area to create a unique kitchen top. He sorted the bottle tops by colour and decided to arrange them in a colour gradient on the top of his black kitchen counter, a bottle top ombre, of sorts. He secured the bottle tops with ultra strong epoxy resin glue, creating a vibrant work surface that proves you don't have to be a professional artist to create a colourful, creative kitchen.

Bakugan Battle Brawlers is a Japanese action adventure anime television series produced by TMS Entertainment and Japan Vistec under the direction of Mitsuo Hashimoto. The story centers on the lives of creatures called Bakugan and the battle brawlers who possess them. Though initially a failure in Japan, the series became popular in the United States and Canada, prompting the creation/order of several follow-up seasons, which aired in other countries before Japan. The fourth and final season, Mechtanium Surge, was never broadcast in Japan and instead aired in Canadian and U.S. markets. The Bakugan franchise are co-productions from Nelvana Enterprises, Spin Master, Sega Toys and TMS Entertainment, with animation by TMS Entertainment in association with Sega Toys. On January 15, 2012, CoroCoro Comics announced that a spin-off series is currently in production that will be based and feature the characters from the BakuTech manga.


We're well into the action of the 1in360 competition to find out San Marino's entrant into the Eurovision Song Contest, and one of the stand out vocalists from last Friday's episode was Sara de Blue, winning great praise from the judging panel. Here we chat with Sara (also known as Sara Köll) to discuss her Olympic dream, her Italiano and her notorious participation in Austria's 2016 selection.
Welcome Sara, and first of all congratulations on getting selected as one of the 11 finalists for the 1in360 competition. For our readers who might not be familiar with you, can you give us a short introduction about yourself and when did you start your interest in music?
How did you feel when you found out you were one of the final 11? Do you remember what you were doing at the time?
How did you come to enter the 1in360 competition?
The production team asked me if I want to apply….So I just sent in a video – without any expectations and then I was so surprised that it really happened.
You famously entered the Austrian Eurovision selection in 2016 as part of the Facebook Wildcard search, what memories do you have of them and what will you use of that experience for the Sammarinese selection this year?
You were also chosen to sing the new version of the Austrian National anthem at the Youth Winter Olympics in Innsbruck in 2012. How did that come about? And how did it feel performing for 20,000 people? Has that been your largest live audience so far?
Wow , yes this was by far the most honored gig I ever had! At first I applied for the Olympic Games Song – then they took someone else. But they liked my song – so they asked me if I want to sing the anthem instead. And I said yes!
How are you getting ready for the competition, how are preparations going?
For the 1in360 search you submitted a piano-only version of your own composition, "Closer to the Sun" with some success; will there be more opportunities for us to hear more songs that you've written in the selection?
In the near future I'm sure you are going to hear more of my own written songs. I will do my best to publish them – I really want the public to hear my "babies" 🙂 But for the 1in360 competition mostly the songs were written for us. One of my two Songs, "Out Of The Twilight" was written by Zoe (Austria's 2016 Eurovision artist) & Christof Straub, so it's going to be very interesting….
What musicians influence you? And what would be your dream collaboration?
You're a clear fan of the contest, have there been any Austrian acts or performances that really stood out to you at ESC? Any from other countries?
Well in Austria of course Conchita Wurst! And I also loved the performances of Nathan Trent and Zoe. My favorite of other countries was Loreen from Sweden & Aminata from Latvia – both singers really killed it!
A lot has been made of the international nature of the 1in360 selections. How do you think you'll handle representing a different country than your own nationality at the Eurovision Song Contest?
Well I think it's a very cool opportunity for all nations to apply for San Marino. The contestants are from all over the world so this makes this show very interesting. It will be of course a huge challenge for all of us – but everyone will try to give their best. I've already started to refresh my Italian 😀 which I luckily learned at school – I love the Italian culture, their country and especially their music.
And finally, is there anything you'd like to say to our readers at ESC Bubble?
I think the most important thing is to stay true to yourself, even though there are dark times – try to get out of the twilight into the light ? And NEVER GIVE UP!
All the best to Sara for her 1in360 journey! If you want to find out more about Sara you can follow her on Facebook here, Spotify and on Instagram here.
Suren Poghosyan: Even when I imagine that moment, I get really emotional and almost lose control.

After the salt flats we set off North to La Paz. The night before we had been contacted by Oscar, a Bolivian guy who is big in to his bikes and offered to put us up in his amazing pent house flat looking over the whole city. The only down side to the view was the climb to get to it and the last 500 metres of steep gravel track was the straw that broke the camels back for our third clutch. It completely burnt out as it did in Ethiopia and we had us, Oscar, and his right hand man Juan pushing it uphill, well after dark. It was a stupidly dramatic entrance.
Thankfully, Juan offered to help us clean up the old clutch and fit it back on. And even better, it turned out he was a complete genius and had it done in a jiffy. He made it look so simple and having spent the best part of three days doing it ourselves in Africa we were in complete awe.
After exploring La Paz, we headed for Lake Titicaca. Which apparently is the highest navigable body of water on the planet (let us know if you know what that means) and perhaps more impressively, in Andean belief, the birthplace of the sun. We enjoyed a drink watching the sunset over it's birth place before striking North again to Cusco, Peru. The road here was full of ups and downs as was our week but full of adventure and nearly another 1000 miles closer to Alaska.

Manufacturing purchasing managers see solid improvement in business conditions in September
Toronto – Canadian manufacturers cited further improvement in overall business conditions in September 2014, reflecting higher levels of output, new orders and employment across the sector, according to the RBC Canadian Manufacturing...
Toronto – Canadian manufacturers cited further improvement in overall business conditions in September 2014, reflecting higher levels of output, new orders and employment across the sector, according to the RBC Canadian Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (RBC PMI). However, the strength of the upturn moderated during the latest survey period, in part thanks to stagnation in new export business.
A monthly survey, conducted in association with Markit, a global financial information services company, and the Supply Chain Management Association (SCMA), the RBC PMI offers a comprehensive and early indicator of trends in the Canadian manufacturing sector.
At 53.5 in September, the seasonally adjusted RBC Canadian Manufacturing PMI eased from the nine-month high registered during August (54.8). The latest reading was the lowest since June, but remained well above the neutral 50.0 value and, overall, signalled a solid improvement in business conditions. The third quarter average for the headline index (54.2) was the highest it has been since Q4 2013.
"While we did see a slight dip in the index after a nine-month high in August, Canada's manufacturing sector continued to show strength," said Craig Wright, senior vice-president and chief economist, RBC. "As we progress into the final months of 2014, we expect a further strengthening in the US economy will augment Canadian exports and set the stage for solid manufacturing business conditions overall."
The headline RBC PMI reflects changes in output, new orders, employment, inventories and supplier delivery times. Key findings from the September survey include:
– A slowdown in both output and new order growth
– New export work stagnated
– The solid pace of job creation was maintained.
Survey respondents suggested that softer increases in production reflected a slowdown in new business gains. The latest rise in incoming new work was the weakest since May. This partly reflected a stagnation of new export orders in September, which ended a 17-month period of expansion. Anecdotal evidence suggested that increased demand from clients in the US had been offset by subdued business conditions in other markets (especially the euro area).
A solid rate of job creation was maintained in September, with employment growth easing only slightly from August's 11-month high. Increased staffing levels were attributed to rising volumes of new work in recent months and corresponding investments in additional capacity. Backlogs of work nonetheless increased for the eighth month running, albeit at a marginal pace.
In line with rising new business volumes and greater production schedules, the latest survey pointed to a solid upturn in purchasing activity across the manufacturing sector. However, stocks of purchases and inventories of finished goods were reduced in September. The latest survey also pointed to longer delivery times from suppliers, which has now been the case for 15 consecutive months. Some manufacturers commented that low stocks and delays in raw material shipments had resulted in longer lead-times from vendors.
Manufacturers pointed to a further robust rise in their average cost burdens, which was generally attributed to greater raw material prices and transportation costs. Although the rate of cost inflation accelerated since August, the latest rise was still much weaker than those seen in the first half of 2014. Meanwhile, factory gate price inflation eased for the fourth month running to only a marginal pace.
Regional highlights include:
– Alberta & British Columbia remained the best performing regions overall, followed by Ontario
– Quebec registered the slowest improvement in business conditions
– Alberta & British Columbia were the only regions to record expansion in new export orders
– Job creation was recorded in all four regions monitored by the survey.
"A solid rebound in Canada's manufacturing sector continued at the end of the third quarter, despite a slight loss of momentum since August" said Cheryl Paradowski, president and chief executive officer, SCMA. "Improving business conditions helped sustain manufacturing jobs growth, as firms looked to build additional capacity amid a more favourable demand environment. Stagnating export sales were a notable setback in September, but an ongoing recovery in US economic conditions should help boost the Canadian manufacturing sector during the final quarter of 2014."

ISIS Man Jailed For Life Over Terror Plot To Assassinate UK PM Theresa May
IANS, 31 Aug, 2018
A British Bangladeshi Islamic State (ISIS) follower was sentenced to life imprisonment at the Old Bailey court in London Friday after he was found guilty of hatching a terror plot to behead Theresa May in a suicide attack on Downing Street.
Naa'imur Zakariyah Rahman had been convicted of preparing acts of terrorism at the end of a trial in July after it was claimed he wanted to bomb the gates of 10 Downing Street, kill guards and then attack the British Prime Minister with a knife or a gun.
Rahman's plans were foiled as a result of a joint undercover operation by the FBI in the US and MI5 and Scotland Yard in the UK. "I want to do a suicide bomb on Parliament. I want to attempt to kill Theresa May," the 21-year-old told undercover intelligence officers.
"There are lorries here with big gas tankers. If a brother can drive it next to parliament I will bomb," he unsuspectingly told an MI5 undercover officer.
At the sentencing hearing on Friday, Justice Haddon-Cave sentenced him to a minimum term of 30 years behind bars. "I am sure that at all material times Rahman believed the devices to be real and capable of causing serious harm," the judge said, paying tribute to the way the "extraordinary" case had been "robustly investigated, prepared and presented".
He said it would be "extremely reassuring for the public as to how this remarkable investigation has been conducted".
The plot was discovered after Rahman contacted an FBI agent who was posing as an ISIS official online. His trial heard how he thought he was being helped by an ISIS handler when in fact he was talking to security officials as part of a major undercover operation mounted by counter-terrorism officers from the Metropolitan Police and MI5.
Met Police Deputy Assistant Commissioner Dean Haydon said: "His intention was to go to the gates of Number 10. He was going to detonate one of the devices that would have killed police officers and members of the public.
"His intention was then to go on through the gates of Number 10, detonate potentially another device there which would get him into Number 10, then, having a knife or gun, attack the PM.
"He was expecting to die in the process and essentially commit martyrdom, detonating a bomb in central London at the heart of government.
"If he had got hold of a genuine bomb, a gun, or a knife, we would have been talking about an individual who could have killed, injured and maimed a number of individuals in Whitehall."
Rahman was arrested in London in November last year, shortly after the last of a number of meetings with undercover police officers posing as terrorists, and where he had been provided with what he was told was a suicide vest and a bomb.
Rahman admitted midway through the trial to helping his friend Mohammad Aqib Imran join ISIS in Libya by recording an ISIS sponsorship video.
The court heard that Rahman had come to the attention of British police in August last year when he was arrested on suspicion of sending indecent images to underage girls, but was never charged.
An examination of his mobile phone raised concerns that he may have been harbouring extremist views. He told an undercover officer: "(God willing) will be very big if I'm successful. I can't mess up. I can't get (martyrdom) if I get caught."
He later described using a suicide belt, a drone, an improvised explosive device (IED) and poison, referred to as "P" or "curry mix".
The trial heard that Rahman had been in contact with an uncle who had travelled to Syria and joined ISIS and who had encouraged his nephew to carry out attacks in Britain.
His resolve to do something hardened over time and he was "tipped over" into doing so when he heard his uncle had been killed in a drone strike, the jury heard.
The uncle, 28-year-old Musadikur Rohaman, had sent his nephew bomb-making instructions and told him to "take a gun and go into Waitrose and shoot people".
According to prosecutors, Rahman sought to portray himself as a self-styled "liberal" Muslim to avoid drawing any attention to his extremist views.
A probation report read out by the judge in court on Friday revealed that Rahman had admitted in prison he would have carried out the attack had he been able to, which is contrary to what he said during the trial.

Trams are the least 'green' form of transport, and even trains produce only slightly less greenhouse gases than cars, an Australian study has found.
The study by researchers at Melbourne's RMIT University, shows that – over the long term – trams produce the highest amount of greenhouse gases, followed by trains, cars and buses. Trams are also very expensive to make and cause major traffic problems.
"The problem is low occupancy," Dr Ed Boyapati, a senior lecturer in engineering who led the study, told ABC Science Online.
The research compared greenhouse gas emissions from the public transport systems and private cars in the Melbourne metropolitan area. The team counted the number of passengers and the length of their trips, and averaged the result against the amount of greenhouse gas each vehicle produced.
They found that trams emit approximately 0.74 kg of carbon dioxide (CO2) per passenger kilometre. Buses showed the least impact, generating just 0.04 kg of CO2 per passenger kilometre, with cars and trains fairly equal at 0.25 kg of CO2 per passenger kilometre and 0.23 kg CO2 per passenger kilometre respectively.
But the findings do not mean we should abandon public transport in favour of cars, according to Boyapati. The solution is to increase the 'loading factor', or number of passengers, using public transport.
The reason for the surprising disparity is that cars always have a passenger in them (the driver), whereas public transport runs at an average of only 25 to 30 per cent capacity. "If we can increase them to between 80 and 90 per cent it will help, but even then trams will be inefficient," Boyapati said.
Reducing the number of carriages on trains and offering dramatically cheaper tickets at off peak periods might also help.
While trams on their own are inefficient in greenhouse gas terms, they also have a multiplier effect on emissions by other vehicles. When they stop to pick up and drop off passengers, "up to 40 cars [can] backed up behind a stopped tram," Boyapati said.
After conducting a life cycle analysis of each form of transport, trams were found to add about 80 per cent more greenhouse gas as a result of these flow-on effects. In addition to the high capital cost – about six times that of buses – trams carry about the same number of passengers.
The study was inspired by a discussion between tram enthusiasts at RMIT in late 2001, where a state government transport expert noted trams appeared to create a lot of flow-on effects, Boyapati recalled. "Then the question was asked how we know that even buses are efficient, and we decided to pursue that aspect," he added.


Last month we were very happy to welcome the Zaragoza Rotary Club when they visited the Tree of Hopes Comedor Project. Rotarians Claudia Urista and Ofelia Mletzko joined me for lunch in the Comedor with Velia Hernandez and Victor Villalobos and nearly 30 children.
Claudia and Ofelia treated everyone to pizza and cookies and gave each child school supplies. Rotarians are working on many humanitarian projects in Juarez and we hope that they will continue to help families living in Anapra.
To help raise funds for all the important projects they are working including Rotacare, the Zaragoza Rotary Club of El Paso will present their First Annual Holiday Harmony Concert with internationally renown Italian Pianist Francesco Attesti. The concert will also feature Adian Salas, Opera Baritone, El Paso Native and UTEP Graduate. Click here for ticket information.
Currently, Francesco Attesti performs regularly in internationally prestigious concert halls  like: Philharmonia Hall of Saint Petersburg, Tchaikovsky Conservatory of Moscow, Mozarteum of Salzburg, Philharmonie Essen, International Piano Festival of Warsaw, Sarajevo Winter Festival, Cambridge University, Leicester University, Columbia University in New York, Denver University in Colorado, and the Conservatory Giuseppe Verdi in Milan.

At Least Four Dead When Boat Capsizes Off Coast of Miami
In yet another tragedy related to immigration, at least four migrants perished when a boat capsized off the coast of Miami. Reports are that, among the dead or missing, are Haitian and Jamaican nationals. Opponents of comprehensive immigration reform often predict that any new immigration law that conveys benefits will result in migrants attempting to come to the United States.
The fact is that migrants attempt to enter the United States consistently now even without any new immigration laws or regulations that would afford them legal status. The United States is one of the greatest countries in the World and people have and will always risk their lives to live the American Dream.
The prospect of immigration reform legislation are not as promising as they were before the federal budget and debt ceiling issues took center stage. What will be interesting to see is what, if anything, President Obama will do if Congress cannot pass a meaningful and comprehensive immigration reform. President Obama has shown his willingness in the past to use his executive authority to implement policies and regulations to achieve what Congress could not.
For instance, President Obama has implemented the "State-side Waiver" that allows people needing a waiver to apply for the waiver while still in the United States and, if approved, return to their country to consular process without risk. President Obama also implemented his own version of the "Dream Act" according deferred action status to certain young immigrants who were brought to the United States before the age of 16 and attend or graduated high school.
Hopefully, Congress will keep comprehensive immigration reform on its immediate agenda.

What do we mean today when we refer to "all-American" ideals? What does it mean to be "all-American" in the new millennium? Auto racing has seemingly snuck into the ranks of heartland sports, possibly supplanting football, and farming, once a rural family venture, is now big business, which is all-American, right? And then there are the things we do to cover our tracks, to get and stay ahead. Henry Whipple (Dennis Quaid), the current head of a multi-generational farm and seed business, finds himself in an epic struggle to maintain his place in this "all-American" world, one in serious transition.


The 2012 Siemens We Can Change the World Challenge is now accepting submissions. The competition calls on students in kindergarten through high school to develop environmental solutions for their schools, homes, and communities for a chance to win prizes for themselves and grants for their schools.
The challenge--put on by the National Science Teachers Association, the College Board, Discovery Education, and the Siemens Foundation--calls on K-12 school students to identify, explore, and research an environmental issue in their community and come up with recommendations for addressing the issue. For the challenge, the students work in teams and compete with other students across the United States. Almost 18,000 students participated in the challenge last year, according to organizers.
Team prizes for the challenge include scholarships, school grants, travel expenses, and a "green prize pack." Scholarships, which are shared among team members, include $50,000 for first place, $25,000 for second place, and $10,000 for third place.
First- through third-place winners will also receive prizes for their schools and mentors, including grants of up to $5,000, NSTA membership, registration at the NSTA conference, and hotel stay for two nights at the conference.
Up to 51 smaller state finalist prizes will also be awarded. Prizes for this year's competition will total more than $250,000, according to organizers.
The deadline for entries is March 15. State finalists will be announced May 1; winners will be announced May 15. Further information can be found on the We Can Change the World portal.


Unlike most designers, I strive to create pieces that I feel will elevate your personal style and develop pieces that the rest of the world simply does not have access to.
But now we are trying something different. I came across some old photographs at a vintage store and found this one of JFK. It inspired the new polo shirt we are introducing. I wanted to capture not just the look but how JFK must have felt at that moment. I have worn our new polo and I have to admit, I think we captured a bit of his essence.

Q: Set ImageButton's visibility using Eval I am trying to set the ImageButton visible property.
<asp:ImageButton ID="img_DataDeleted" runat="server" Visible='<%# !Convert.ToBoolean(Eval("IsDeleted")) %>' CausesValidation="false" CommandName="Delete" OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this record?');" Text="Delete" ImageUrl="~/Images/Delete_btn.gif" ToolTip="Delete this record" />

This works fine when the record is deleted
I am trying to add,
 && !Convert.ToBoolean(Eval("DataID" == '1'))

so if DataID is 1 I want the ImageButton to be invisible
(DataID data type is int)

A: Try this
Visible='<%# !Convert.ToBoolean(Eval("IsDeleted")) && !(Eval("DataID") == 1) %>'

A:  Visible='<%# !Convert.ToBoolean(Eval("IsDeleted")) &&  !(Convert.ToInt32(Eval("DataID")) == 1 ) %>'

This works

'Doing Laundry on a Farm in the Fifties' by Donal Mahoney
Doing Laundry on a Farm in the Fifties
Grandma Gretchen's in her rocker and she has something to say.
She tells a visitor, a young man from the city, if he plans to write a book about life on a farm in the Fifties, he likely has a lot to learn. She knows about that life because she was there. She says he needs to know about the little things as well as the big things if the book is going to be accurate.
For example, she says for him to understand that culture, he needs to know how laundry was done back then. This was before electric washers and dryers became popular. And he needs to understand why some farm wives today still use a ringer washer to do their laundry, usually on a Monday if the weather is nice.
The visitor agrees. So as he and Grandma sip strong coffee and nibble on scones from yesterday, Grandma starts to rock faster and begins a long tutorial.
The young man begins to feel he's back in law school and should be taking notes but he had no reason to bring a notebook. He thought he was just visiting an older lady still living in her old farmhouse, a widow cared for by her adult children.
Colors and whites, Grandma explains, are always washed separately. Undies are washed separately as well. Sheets and towels are washed by themselves as are the men's clothes.
"Men's clothes are the filthiest thing on laundry day on any farm," Grandma says, "especially the overalls.
"Believe me, young man, overalls are always washed alone. It's a task no farm wife enjoys."
In good weather, she says the whites are the first to be hung out to dry.
The clothesline is strung between two trees or from a tree to a hook on the house. As long as the line is not under where birds might perch, everything's okay.
"Between two trees is prettier," she says, "and a clothesline should look pretty."
Warming to her task, Grandma goes on to explain that clothespins join all of the wash together except for bras which are hung by a single strap.
"A good wind and bras will kick," she says, "like the Rockettes."
The young man wonders how she knows about the Rockettes. He was told that Grandma's sole exposure to the media over the years has been a Gospel music station on an old RCA console radio stationed not far from her rocking chair.
She goes on to point out that if it starts to rain and the clothes are nearly dry, the farm wife dashes out and rushes the clothes into the house.
"Even if he's in the house at the time, her husband isn't any help," she says. "On a farm men have their tasks and women have theirs."
Grandma admits she's heard that some younger men today may help out in ways they would never have done back in the Fifties. That's a big surprise, she says, if it's true.
Then she mentions something the young man had been told by one of her daughters: Grandma and her husband, Carl, had seven kids. Carl took care of the farm and Grandma took care of the kids.
"Seven kids are a lot of work," she says, "but Carl had 20 cows to milk every morning and 100 hogs to slop and eggs to gather in the hen house. I'd rather take care of Carl and seven kids."
Grandma finishes her tutorial by telling the visitor that although she wishes him well, she doesn't know how a man from the city can write a book about farm life in the Fifties.
"You weren't there," she tells him with all the kindness and wonder she can muster.
He tells her all he can do is try and maybe with her help something good will come of it.
She tells him he better let her read what he writes before it's printed. She says she just got new bifocals.
The young man says she will be the first to read it.
And then he reaches for another day-old scone.

Life after the guerrillas
by The Fifth Column • July 7, 2015
Bogota, Colombia (NI) – One sunny Tuesday morning earlier this year in Medellín, Colombia, Luz Miriam Gómez Acevedo, mother of 2 and employee of the local transit authority, was walking to the metro station a few blocks from her house when a young guy appeared on the street, shot her several times, and disappeared in a taxi.
Medellín's police chief would later confirm that Gómez Acevedo had turned herself in some 13 years ago after demobilizing from the Marxist guerrilla group ELN (National Liberation Army) and providing intelligence on ELN activities to local law enforcement.
She had started working for the metro 11 months before her murder, after receiving a work placement through Futuro para la Niñez, a social assistance programme for vulnerable citizens.
When news of Gómez's murder appeared in the local daily El Colombiano, a few magnanimous commentators seized the occasion to moan about programmes like Futuro para la Niñez. They said that such programmes make it easier for ex-terrorists than law-abiding unemployed Colombians to find well-paid work.
It's exactly that level of societal bitterness – not to mention fear for his life – that makes David Barreto (not his real name), put his back to the camera when he gives public interviews about his years as a child soldier in Colombia's Marxist guerrilla army, the FARC.
After running away from home and his destitute parents to try his luck on the streets of Cali at age 7, David survived for years by begging and selling sweets on buses, until he decided to follow the lead of 3 of his 6 brothers and join the guerrillas.
He spent the next 3 years in the jungle, helping the FARC arrange kidnappings, in exchange for ransoms. At 14, he fled to Medellín after a botched surveillance operation and began to reintegrate into society.
Now a straight-backed 21-year-old with the uncompromising gaze of a survivor, David has completed a full reintegration process and works with vulnerable kids in Medellín.
With Colombia's peace process slowly hiccupping along at the talks in Havana, Cuba, kids like him are now pouring into Colombia's handful of Specialized Attention Centers (CAEs), which help rehabilitate child soldiers.
In late May, I visited the CAE that David himself graduated from, part of the Ciudad Don Bosco School in Medellín's Comuna 7, where a hodgepodge of houses clings precariously to the side of a mountain.
Leah Danze, a Princeton in Latin America Fellow from Texas, works with the children in the child soldiers programme. A new group of some 60 children between the ages of 14 and 18 (more than a quarter of them girls) has just arrived at Ciudad Don Bosco, and for the vast majority of them, politics is of no interest whatsoever.
'A lot of these kids didn't even realize that the peace process was happening when they got here,' Leah tells me. As in David's case, for most of them it was extreme poverty and Colombia's entirely inadequate social safety net that drove them into the arms of the FARC in the first place.
'They talk to you a lot about Che [Guevara] in the guerrillas,' David tells me. 'Some of the guys get very serious about the politics part, but for most of them it's just like background symbols.'
For Teman Menaric (not her real name), an indigenous girl from Colombia's thick-forested department of Chocó, the FARC's rhetoric of social equality proved far more appealing than the prospect of quitting school to go to work.
'My mother wanted me to stop studying and go [to work] on the mountain,' she says in her faltering Spanish. 'But the guerrillas were around a lot… You know when you're young and you don't know much. I believed what they told me.'
Leah tells me that the FARC particularly likes to recruit girls as soldiers – people tend not to suspect 12-year-old girls of being Marxist rebels. David notes that, officially, the FARC implements full gender equality among all recruits, with no difference in status or tasks assigned to boys or girls.
'But really what happens – from what I've seen,' he continues, 'is that a new girl arrives at a unit and tries to get in with the strongest guy, usually the comandante. When he gets tired of her after a few weeks, she passes to another guy, and then another, until she's slept with every soldier in the unit and becomes kind of hardened to everything.'
Leah puts it more starkly: 'I would say most of the girls in this group have suffered sexual violence.' Lots of the teenage girls even arrive with children themselves; she tells me about an 18-year-old girl in the CAE who has just been reunited with her 6-year-old child.
But despite the underside of trauma, a cold assessment makes it hard not to conclude that for a lot of the children, joining the guerrillas offered better prospects than an adolescence spent in obscene poverty.
And the very fact of having been in the guerrilla group entitles them to far greater support from the Colombian government after demobilizing than they could have ever expected otherwise.
David, for his part, is both frank and unrepentant in this respect: 'I think my life is better thanks to the guerrillas than it would have been if I'd stayed on the streets.'
During his vulnerable preteen years, he moved under the protection of his unit. After he demobilized, the CAE ensured he received an education, career training and the support of a team of social workers and psychologists – all this on top of a lump-sum state grant of approximately 15 million pesos (around $7,500) to help with the reintegration process.
But these benefits that proved so important in helping David reintegrate undoubtedly do create a certain level of moral hazard. This in turn fuels the public bitterness seen after the March murder of Luz Miriam Gómez Acevedo: given the policy and spending priorities of the Colombian government, it actually might be easier to find a job as an ex-guerrilla than as a law-abiding citizen.
The perverse incentives created by this situation are apparently not lost on James Areiza, the media co-ordinator at Ciudad Don Bosco.
When I show up at the school to talk to him about the CAE, he won't take a single question before giving me an hour-long presentation, complete with hand-drawn diagrams, about the 8 other programmes run by Ciudad Don Bosco that assist thousands of vulnerable children every year – an estimated 85,000 over the past half-century.
None of them receive anything remotely close to the level of media attention or financial support garnered by the child soldiers programme, with its 60-odd current enrollment.
For the past decade or so, the CAE has received both financial and developmental support from the Miami-based Developing Minds Foundation, whose website boasts: 'We have successfully reintegrated hundreds of former child soldiers… Our work experience has enabled us to develop deep expertise in preparing these former combatants for the transition into civilian life.'
Indeed, Areiza – himself a graduate of one of Ciudad Don Bosco's other programmes for local children – barely stifles open annoyance when discussing the CAE.
'When I first started working at Don Bosco, the kids in the CAE arrived with nothing and were grateful to have a roof over their heads,' he tells me. 'Now they complain if we don't give them nice shoes. They think everything should be given to them.'
Things were also different at the CAE when David Barreto was there, apparently.
David himself now exudes seething ambition from every pore. The former Caleño street child aims to start his own company and eventually make it big in the United States or Europe. He's been attending English classes several mornings a week, and peppers me with questions about the US. He rounds off our interview with several criticisms of the CAE's current programming, which he accuses of promoting 'assistentialism' among the kids.
'The problem with the CAE is that it doesn't prepare the kids for the job market here,' he tells me. 'In Colombia, if you're not good at what you do, there are 7 other people waiting in line for your job. These kids come out of the programme and they can't compete.'
But beyond the children's sense of entitlement, if the open hostility that met Gómez Acevedo's murder is any indication, one of the biggest obstacles to successful reintegration is something else: rejection by fellow citizens who resent any success among children who've broken all the rules to survive.

This is exactly what most concerns Leah Danze.
'The main question is not if these kids are prepared to go back into society,' she tells me as we end our interview. 'It is: is society prepared to welcome them?'

Q: Is there any emacs mode for checking ELF file I often need to check ELF file(.o, bin and so) by readelf, objdump, nm and some other binutils. I'd like to know if there is any more friendly way to this end. By friendly I mean something like:
fold/unflod of sections
hyperlink btw symbol and where it's referenced
interpretation of dwarf information
specific emacs mode for this purpose is most preferable, and any linux/macos tools are also what I seek.
Thanks a lot!

A: There's dwarf-mode.el in the binutils-gdb tree that offers some pretty display of DWARF with some linking to make navigation easier.  It certainly does not contain all the features you've asked for though, no folding, nor jumping to symbols within the code or data, it's just about DWARF navigation.
You can find it here: https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=blob_plain;f=binutils/dwarf-mode.el;hb=HEAD

Once Upon a Time 3.16: "It's Not Easy Being Green"
"Be careful. It is one thing to wonder about your past but another to become envious of the things you cannot have."
- The Wizard
If you couldn't tell from the title of this week's episode, we finally get some backstory on Zelena. We find a couple walking towards Oz when a tornado hits and a baby in a basket falls at their feet. The babe produces some pretty powerful magic which freaks the man out but his wife brushes it off as nerves. Years later, we see Zelena shaving her father (like she told Rumple about a few weeks back) and she accidentally conjures a cloth when she nicks him with the blade. He tells her the truth that he's not her real father. Hurt, she goes off to find the Wizard to see if he can help her find a family who wants her. The Wizard tells her about Cora and Regina and Rumple. Zelena goes from excited about learning about her family to jealous and furious that Regina got everything she never had. So the Wizard gifts her with magic slippers (not ruby ones in case you were wondering) and she goes to the Enchanted Forest where Rumple sees her do some magic. He tests her abilities a bit by making her find him blind folded using her magic and he's quite impressed. He may have found a better witch to cast his curse.
Back in Storybrooke we have a very somber funeral for Neal. I'll be honest, I got teary eyed but I didn't cry as much as I was expecting. Various members of the extended Mills/Charming family (along with Hook and Belle) shovel a bit of dirt into the grave. At the wake Hook finds Emma through darts with extreme accuracy. She's livid with Zelena and Hook suggests she dull the pain with some rum since vengeance isn't all it's cracked up to be. He offers to take charge of Henry for a bit to bond and see if telling him about Neal as a boy helps him come to terms with his dad's passing. And it might just help our mouthy pirate mourn, too. Regina and Tink chat over Robin Hood and Tink gets miffed when it appears Regina is throwing away her second chance with her gorgeous and sweet soul mate. No sooner have Hook and Henry left but Zelena busts in and promptly drops the "Regina is my baby sister" bombshell. She suggest Regina find something to verify her words because they're going to have a showdown and the whole town's invited.
Hook takes Henry to his boat (Henry remarks that all of Emma's friends seem to have boats) and he explains that he and Neal were friends way back in the day and he'll tell him all about it. They spend the day hanging out on the Jolly Roger, tying knots and stuff and when it finally gets dark, Hook brings out his sextant, intent on teaching Henry how to navigate by the stars. Henry isn't interested though. He wants the pirate to cut the crap because the more people say about Neal, the less he believes it. So Hook has a very honest moment with Henry where he explains that he met Neal right after he'd lost his father and that seems to get through to Henry.
Elsewhere in town, after the Charmings and Tink start badgering Regina about whether Zelena's bombshell could be true, she takes off and finds a letter that gets her really upset. So she ends up in the woods. And who should happen upon her but one Robin Hood. She allows him to read the letter (once he's nicked it from her pocket)and she explains that for years she thought the letter from Rumple to Cora complimenting Cora's first born was about her. Now she knows it's about Zelena and if Rumple thinks Zelena is so powerful, then Regina is screwed. Speaking of Rumple, Belle thinks she might be able to get through to him sans dagger and take him out of the equation for the big showdown. But Zelena is one step ahead of them and strings Belle along for a few minutes. Luckily no one gets hurt (at least not physically) and Rumple delivers a warning that if they try to interfere again, Rumple will kill them all.
That night, Regina and Zelena get into it. Regina calls out her big sister on her jealousy. And as they duke it out in the streets of Storybrooke, we see that in the Enchanted Forest, Zelena's jealousy is literally turning her green. She even goes as far as trying to kill Regina. It turns out Rumple was testing her and he proclaims that since the thing she loves most is him, she's too dangerous to enact his curse. Pissed off, she clicks her heels back to Oz and demands help from the Wizard. She wants to go back and change the past. Now I'm hoping for a little continuity here. I mean we saw the lengths Jafar went to in order to change the past on "Wonderland". I hope it's not so simple for her to change it now. But she debunks the Wizard as a hokey fraud named Walsh (so that's where Emma's would-be fiancé came from). She's got no use for him in his human form and so the flying monkey was born. Oh, and she goes completely green. Guess envy really can do that do a girl. Who knew?
Back in Storybrooke, we see that Zelena was after Regina's heart but the Queen doesn't have her ticker in her chest. She's left it under guard by Robin Hood in the woods. And as she mulls over Zelena's words (and probably Tink's as well), she entrust her heart a little longer in Robin's care. I have to say these two have amazing chemistry. I know they're dancing around things right now but even that is tantalizing. Regina deserves some happiness after all the progress she's made. As things die down, Hook brings Henry home and Emma thinks him. He points out that there is more of Neal in Henry than Emma realizes and again implores her to tell Henry the truth (aka get his memories back). She just says goodnight and he forlornly leaves. And down in the cellar, Zelena gloats that once she has her sister's heart, she's going to go back and chance things so that Regina is never born and Zelena is the one who gets everything she ever wanted. Can we please just get a Charming/Mills united front ass kicking and just kill her off already? I mean, I'm really liking the Wicked arc for the most part (I do think Neverland went on a bit too long) but come on. She's so annoying! Next week, we get to find out what happened to Hook during everyone's missing year and if the preview is anything to go by it involved a lot of women.

Caution: This entire summary is a spoiler!
Captain Marvel was a fun, energetic adventure of a movie. Brie Larson was the main character as Carol Danvers/ Captain Marvel and Veers. She was a human, but after a traumatic plane crash, she was given Kree blood and Kree powers. After a failed sneak attack against their enemies the Skrull, Captain Marvel takes a escape pod to Earth. She crashlands on a Blockbuster and meets Nick Fury and his crew. The Skrull follows her to Earth and tries to hunt them down. Captain Marvel contacts her crew and tries to get back up to help her. Captain Marvel and the Skrull have a fight on the train and that's when the movie starts to pick up the pace. Captain Marvel and Nick Fury go into the storage unit that held the plane that gave her the Kree powers. They are investigating the plane hanger, and Captain Marvel finds out about her past as a human. Agents of Shield come into the hanger. Captain Marvel and Nick Fury figure out that they actually Skrull and they are there to kill them. They escape and go to her best friends house, Maria Rambeau. At her house, they are taken care of and kind of protected from the Skrull. Ironically, The leader of the Skrull and some of his men break into the house and talk to Nick Fury and Captain Marvel and try to persuade them into helping them. They play them a clip of Captain Marvel's past as a human. After a few scenes later, in a Skrull spacecraft, they see refuges and save them. Then, they find the TESSERACT and bring it back to earth. They save the refugees and all Tesseract. Overall, I would give this movie a 8/10.

National Guard Tattoo Policy for 2022
The National Guard acts as a reserve component for the U.S. Armed Forces.
Since it is a reserved military force, members of the National Guard have civilian jobs while also serving part-time in the military.
Therefore, the balance between having a traditional and professional military appearance is important yet not as well explained compared to other branches of the military.
The National Guard is aligned primarily with the U.S. Army and Air Force, which is why it has many of the same presentation standards, including what is allowed in terms of tattoos.
Read the full article to determine if your tattoos qualify or are not authorized based on the National Guard tattoo policy for 2021.
What Tattoos Are Allowed in the National Guard?
What Tattoos Are NOT Allowed in the National Guard?
Members of the National Guard are expected to follow similar presentation standards as the U.S. Army and Air Force. Image: Virginia National Guard
Both the Army National Guard and Air National Guard are expected to follow the same physical standards and moral character as "full-time" active-duty recruits.
Therefore, much of the same language in terms of what is allowed for physical presence in the U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force also apply to the National Guard.
According to a memo drafted by the National Guard Bureau in July 2019, there are procedures for tattoos in the National Guard as well as opportunities to request an extension.
The National Guard mandates that all applicants for service are screened for tattoos based on Wear and Appearance of Army Uniforms and Insignia, AR 670-1.
Consequently, the National Guard tattoo policy is very similar to the policy set forth by the U.S. Army.
It's also vaguely similar to the Air Force tattoo policy, although that branch is considered a bit more strict on what they do and do NOT allow.

Recent Changes to National Guard Tattoo Policy
Members of the National Guard are no longer limited to the number or size of tattoos, with a few exceptions. Image: Department of Defense
The Army recently adapted its tattoo policy to make it more lenient for recruits since more and more Millennials are opting to get some type of body art.
As a result, the National Guard follows the Army tattoo policy in that it allows tattoos on any part of the body aside from the head, face, neck, and hands.
There are no longer restrictions on the number of tattoos National Guard members can have on their bodies.
Additionally, the National Guard follows the Army by no longer judging the size of tattoos either.
It is quite a difference from the previous National Guard military tattoo policy which limited the number of tattoos to four.
The previous tattoo policy also prohibited tattoos on the chest, upper arms, torso, and legs – parts of the body that are now authorized.
Finally, the National Guard tattoo policy for 2021 does permit one ring tattoo per hand (with limitations) yet that is it in terms of hand tattoos.
Related Article: Navy Tattoo Policy
The National Guard tattoo policy has rules on the placement and content of appropriate body art. Image: Virginia National Guard
Once again the National Guard follows the same standards set forth in the Wear and Appearance of Army Uniforms and Insignia manual.
The National Guard has two determining factors for unauthorized tattoos:
1. Location
2. Content of the Tattoo
First, in terms of location, the National Guard tattoo policy has very few places on the body where tattoos are not permitted.
Regardless, the head, scalp, face, neck, and hands are pretty much off-limits with a couple of exceptions.
Example of a person with multiple National Guard tattoo violations on the face, neck, and hands. Image: Pexels
You can find out if you follow the National Guard tattoo policy for 2021 by doing the t-shirt test.
When you put on a t-shirt and look in the mirror do you see any ink visible above the collar line of the shirt?
If so, you technically are in violation of the National Guard tattoo policy.
The restrictions also apply to the hands (aside from one ring tattoo per hand) and legs.

One ring tattoo per hand is permitted. Otherwise, hand tattoos are not authorized in the National Guard without a waiver. Image: Flickr
Prohibited National Guard Tattoos
Secondly, the National Guard disallows tattoos that are inappropriate in terms of content.
The National Guard does not authorize, under any conditions, tattoos that are racist, derogatory, sexist, extremist, or indecent.
While the determination that a particular tattoo is offensive is a matter of personal speculation, there are some obvious examples:
A good example of tattoos that are not authorized in the military because the ink is considered extremist or racist. Image: Flickr
It is also worth mentioning that it doesn't matter if an offensive tattoo is covered by the uniform or not.
The body art is still not authorized if a commanding officer finds it inappropriate and offensive.
Here are some commonly asked questions about the National Guard tattoo policy for 2021:
Related Article: Can You Join The Military With A DUI?
Can you have a full sleeve tattoo in the National Guard?
The National Guard follows the Army's stance in terms of full sleeve tattoos.
The U.S. Army recently changed its policy regarding tattoos on the arms.
You are allowed to have tattoos on the entire arm, but not past the wrist bone.
Therefore, a full sleeve tattoo is possible in the National Guard based on current standards.
The same is true of sleeve tattoos on the legs since the National Guard now allows body art on that section of the body.
Will the National Guard pay to remove tattoos?
The Department of Defense recently disallowed coverage for tattoo removal.
The only exception is if you are ordered by a commanding officer to remove a tattoo or face disciplinary action.
In that event, the military may provide a clinic and funding for a professional removal if there is space at the clinic.
If not, it is up to you to remove ineligible tattoos before considering joining the National Guard.
Related Article: 3 Best TCA Peels For Tattoo Removal
Why are tattoos prohibited on the hands and head?
The National Guard follows the U.S. Army policy for tattoos, which has loosened its regulations and now allows body art on the legs, but limits tattoos from the head and hands.
The only exception is a single ring tattoo per hand.
The stance in the Army and National Guard is comparable to other branches of the military that consider these parts of the body unprofessional for tattoos.
Can you get a waiver for tattoos in the National Guard?
The National Guard will consider granting waivers for tattoos that would otherwise violate its tattoo policy, according to a memo released by the National Guard in 2019.
There are procedures that a member of the National Guard must take to apply for a waiver, which you can learn more about by speaking to an officer or ARC.
In general, the National Guard will much more likely approve tattoos that violate placement restrictions compared to content.
The National Guard, like other military branches, traditionally has a zero-tolerance policy on tattoos that are considered offensive.
Additionally, PS/GNPS applications with previously documented tattoos on the neck or hands can get grandfathered in under National Guard guidelines.
The National Guard leaves it up to a Recruiting and Retention Commander (ARC) to make an initial determination on tattoos that may violate the tattoo policy.
Related Article: Coast Guard Tattoo Policy: What IS and ISN'T Allowed?
What other grooming standards does the National Guard have?
Once again, the National Guard follows the same rules and guidelines as the U.S. Army.
The grooming standards expect men and women to be "neat, clean, and well-groomed" in personal appearance.
Common logic follows with standard short haircuts for men and neatly pinned up hairstyles for women.
Men are not permitted to have beards in the National Guard, but tightly regulated mustaches are allowed.
Body piercings are also not allowed on male members of the National Guard, yet females can have a single piercing on each ear.
You can get a more detailed explanation of National Guard expectations by studying Army grooming standards.
The National Guard tattoo policy for 2021 follows the path of the Army tattoo policy.
The guidelines are the same with the ability to appeal or request extensions on a case-by-case basis.
General guidelines include no tattoos on the head, face, neck, hands.
You also need to make yourself mindful of getting tattoos that are considered racist, derogatory, sexist, extremist, or indecent.
You can get more information about the National Guard tattoo policy by contacting a local recruiter.

Marines have sworn an oath – and liberals are really upset about that.
There are over 21 million veterans in the United States and we all have one thing in common with politicians. We took the oath to defend the constitution against all enemies both foreign and domestic. To a few politicians that oath is nothing more than another broken promise found in a list of lies. The constitution, which we have sworn to protect states that we have the right to bear arms and no traitor will infringe upon that right. Millions of Americans have given their lives defending the constitution that we hire politicians to protect. Politicians are surrounded by armed security for protection while trying to figure out ways of taking ours. This is a message I wish to send to Washington to make myself clear.
Just because many of you have forgotten your oath, let me remind you I never will. If you are unable to do your job I recommend you resign. When you stop doing your job you become a threat to the very thing I have sworn to protect. There are those in Washington who refused to protect our embassy, but expect Americans to trust you will protect them.
