Their ticket to the knockout round of the Champions League for the second straight year punched in dramatic and emphatic fashion, Tottenham Hotspur try to come down off their high and stay in the thick of the Premier League race as their hectic December fixture list continues Saturday at Wembley versus Burnley.
It could very well go down as the greatest draw in Spurs history, regardless of the strength of the Barcelona side they faced Tuesday at the Nou Camp. Mauricio Pochettino's team - and specifically untested right back Kyle Walker-Peters - shook off a seventh-minute goal by Barca's Ousmane Dembele to scrape out a gritty 1-1 draw courtesy of Lucas Moura's goal three minutes from time.
The result, coupled with Inter Milan surprisingly held to a 1-1 draw by group-bottom PSV Eindhoven, allowed the Lilywhites passage to the Champions League round of 16 as Group B runners-up.
For the moment, no one is worried about potential opponents Juventus, Bayern Munich or even reigning three-times champions Real Madrid ahead of Friday's draw for their February fate after the staggering amount of energy Spurs expended to claim seven points from their final three group play matches to simply be included.
"It's a massive achievement for the Club," Pochettino said post-match. "It's so important to be in the next stage of the Champions League. It's a massive boost for everyone. Now we keep going. We were a little unlucky in how we conceded the first goal after seven minutes and that changed our strategy a little and we started to play in two different stadiums - here at the Nou Camp and in Milan.
"In the second half we found a way to link play better in our possession and started to create chances. We deserved to go through. We've made the impossible, possible and it's important to show everyone if you believe, everything in football is possible. That emotion is so important and we need to protect that and use it in the right way, trying to push with everyone involved and the belief that we can improve and do better."
To say Spurs left it late in their five-week scramble would be a huge understatement since both match-winners versus PSV and Inter and Moura's equaliser Tuesday came on 80 minutes or later. For Moura, his seventh goal this term in all competitions was also a personal redemption after the nightmare he endured at the Nou Camp in his last visit with PSG in March 2017 when Barcelona stunned the French side with three goals after the 88th minute to advance with a 6-5 aggregate win in the round of 16.
"It was a very important goal and I'm so happy to score here in the Nou Camp in the Champions League and help my team-mates to qualify," the Brasil international told Spurs' official website. "It was an amazing moment. The last time here was really sad for me and this is really different.
"In the second half we did very well. We had many chances to score. We could win. It was a deserved result. … It was a very happy night for me, an amazing moment."
Now, though, it is time for Spurs (12-0-4) to turn their attention back to domestic play. Thanks to derby rivals Chelsea, who knocked off previously unbeaten and reigning champions Manchester City last weekend, Pochettino's side is just six points back of new leaders Liverpool and part of a three-time race.
"To qualify for the next stage of the Champions League is an amazing thing for the club, it means a lot for the fans and the players," Pochettino said. "But now we are thinking about Burnley, a tough game on Saturday, and we need to create an amazing atmosphere at Wembley because it's an important three points.
"We need to be ready because the competition doesn't wait for you, it doesn't stop, and it's so important to be in our best condition to compete. We need to take the game in the same way as Barcelona with the same motivation. If we want to be consistent, it's a game where we need to give our best and compete in our best way."
Pochettino will likely again lean on the 21-year-old Walker-Peters since first-choice right back Kieran Trippier is still sidelined with a groin injury and understudy Serge Aurier just returned to training after suffering a groin injury in last weekend's win over Leicester City. It would also not be surprising to see Moura and Erik Lamela in the starting XI given the amount of energy Heung-Min Son and Christian Eriksen expended at the Nou Camp.
Burnley (3-3-10) moved above the drop last weekend with a crucial 1-0 victory over Brighton and Hove Albion that ended a three-match losing streak and eight-match winless spell (0-2-6) overall.
Jack Tarkowski was able to re-direct Jack Cork's 40th-minute cross for the lone goal, and the Clarets' defence that had gone missing for so long this term finally showed its teeth as it followed up the solid effort in their 3-1 loss to Liverpool with their first clean sheet at home since routing Bournemouth 4-0 on Sept. 22.
"We know there is a strength to the unity of the side and recently we haven't got over the line in games where we could have done," Clarets boss Sean Dyche said post-match. "Others have rightly gone against us because we haven't performed. But slowly and surely we are remodelling our game and in three of the last four we've looked more like ourselves."
Dyche has some injury concerns to deal with as attacking midfielder Steven Defour and right wing Johann Berg Gudmundsson will be late decisions due to calf and hamstring injuries, respectively. Aaron Lennon would likely replace Gudmundsson on the flank while Dyche has multiple options for Defour, including dropping Ashley Barnes into the playmaking role and pairing together strikers Chris Wood and Sam Vokes.
Having finally ended their winless run, Dyche feels a weight has been lifted off his side and will be able to play freely at Wembley.
"We go down there with a bit more freedom, the expectation changes," he noted to Sky Sports. "Last week against Brighton when there is really heavy expectation for us to get a result. "It changes when you go to places like Tottenham. That gives us just that little bit of freedom to take the game on and hopefully deliver a very good performance, because we will need it."
The Clarets nicked a point off Spurs in their trip to Wembley last term, with Wood's 92nd minute canceling out a goal by Dele Alli just before the hour. Burnley are winless in eight (0-3-5) in all competitions versus Spurs since their long Premier League win in eight tries (1-2-5) - a 4-2 victory at Turf Moor in 2010.
Kane had a hat trick in the most recent meeting, a 3-0 win for Spurs on Dec. 23.

The hotel has 33 en-suite bedrooms, two residents' lounges, a public bar and two restaurants.
The Royal Goat Hotel was originally built as the Beddgelert Hotel in 1802 by Thomas Jones, whose wife had inherited the Beddgelert estate. It was conceived specifically to cater for the increasing numbers of tourists visiting Snowdon. The first tenant manager, David Pritchard promoted the story of Gelert, the loyal hound mistakenly slain by his master and created a monument known as Gelert's Grave in a nearby field in an attempt to further boost tourism.
The hotel became the Royal & Goat Hotel in the 1870s to commemorate a visit by Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught. Other famous guests who have stayed at the hotel include Casablanca star Ingrid Bergman (while filming The Inn of the Sixth Happiness).

They Are Changing The Name Of High-Fructose Syrup (Again). Don't be fooled!
It was announced recently by The Corn Refiners Association, that they will now be labeling high fructose corn syrup as simply "fructose." The Corn Refiners Association is the lobbying group that pushes for government protections of entrenched businesses in the agriculture industry. They are based in Washington DC and are a very strong controlling force in the food industry.
The only difference between this new substance and the original high fructose corn syrup is that the new "fructose" actually contains a higher percentage actual fructose, which is incredibly ironic considering the name change.
This is also the second time that high fructose corn syrup had to change its name. Just two years ago high fructose corn syrup was labeled as "corn sugar" on many products.

Criminalize Conservatism: What Is It About Conservatives And Propaganda?
What Is It About Conservatives And Propaganda?
Propaganda is information that is purposely designed to persuade or mislead people, and boy do the Conservatives have that down pat!
"Why conservatives prefer propaganda to reality."
"A new Pew study on America's media consumption offers a window into the right's collective mindset.
"Pew Research set out to find what's behind what it considers the increasing political polarization of the United States; why the country is moving away from political moderation and becoming more and more divided between liberals and conservatives. Its first report on the phenomenon, which examines where people are hearing news and opinion in both regular and social media, shows that this is happening for very different reasons among people moving to the right than for people moving to the left.
"Or that's the charitable way to put it. The less charitable way is to say Pew discovered that conservatives are consuming a right-wing media full of lies and misinformation, whereas liberals are more interested in media that puts facts before ideology. It's very much not a 'both sides do it' situation. Conservatives are becoming more conservative because of propaganda, whereas liberals are becoming more liberal while staying very much checked into reality.
"That this polarization is going on isn't a myth. Previous Pew research shows the percentage of Americans who are 'mostly' or 'consistently' conservative has grown from 18% in 2004 to 27% in 2014. During that same period, the percentage of Americans who are 'mostly' or 'consistently' liberal stayed a little more consistent, growing from 33% to 34% in 10 years. (These statistics don't measure what you call yourself, but what you rate as on a scale of beliefs about various issues.) While liberals became more liberal, conservatives both became more numerous and more rigidly conservative over time. What gives?.."
Enter right-wing media, which has a nifty trick of convincing audiences it's the other guys who are the liars, all while actually being much less trustworthy in reality.
And the result of all that poisonous propaganda? "Propaganda is to a democracy what the bludgeon is to a totalitarian state." Noam Chomsky, Media Control: The Spectacular Achievements of Propaganda.
And here's one of the biggest propaganda efforts ever...think about it when it's time to vote.
Almost all politicians use propaganda to an extent, but Conservatives are past masters at it. Goebbels, Stalin, and Goering were experts too, and don't for a minute doubt that the Cons' campaign strategists haven't read about their methods.
When voters are kept ignorant by a media that doesn't expose Conservative propaganda, the results are all too obvious. And it isn't even un-American - it's anti-American.
Coupled with the vast ignorance of the Low Information Voter, gerrymandering, and other forms of vote theft, the Cons are the capos of American politic.
mere words, and words can be molded until they clothe ideas and disguise."


Generally, it's best to stay within two levels of your natural hair color when dying your hair blonde. **I'd either include a table of hair color & what level it is, or just link to this article http://womenshair.about.com/od/haircolor/a/Hair-Color-101.htm saying "determine your hair color level hair".
What kind of image are you after? Do you want a natural, sun-kissed look? Or do you want in-your-face blonde style?
That said, when going blonde, there are all kinds of ways to break the rules. Regardless of what you're looking for, remember that the most important thing to do when dying your hair blonde is to seek the help of your stylist. A good colorist knows how to dye any color of hair blonde, and can save you the grief of a bad outcome.
Here are the three basic blonde color categories that provide hair coloring ideas you can take with you to the salon, and tips on how to select your custom color.
Platinum blonde hair color is the lightest of all the blonde shades, and is best on fair skin tones or medium skin tones with a yellowish tint. But this palest of blonde hues looks fabulous with any eye color, and is particularly striking with bright blue or brown eyes. The popularity of platinum hair shades has been around a long time – can you say "Marilyn"? –but the trend has taken on an edgier look in more recent years, often with all-over platinum color.
Light ash blonde hair color is a whiter shade of blonde that has an ashy, or gray, tint. It could be described as cool platinum, and looks best on lighter complexions with lighter eye colors. Lady Gaga has sported this hue, which can be achieved on lighter natural hair colors through balayage, or all-over color on those with darker natural hair colors.
Natural blonde hair color is as it sounds: blonde hair that looks like you were born with it. This baby blonde color is multidimensional, having several similar blonde shades within the same family of color. This looks great on any skin tone, as long as the shades mimic skin color: i.e., for lighter skin, keep the color shades lighter, and for darker skin, darken up the shades to keep it natural-looking.
4. Strawberry blonde hair color is a warm reddish-blonde hue that can have all the colors of a sunset in it. This shade is best on fair skin and lighter eye colors, and is simplest to achieve if hair is a lighter color to begin with. Balayage over a lighter base is one way to create strawberry blonde hair color.
5. Buttery blonde hair color is a warm hue with splashes of honey-yellow. This sunny color is best with pearly complexions that are light to medium in tone, and look stunning with any eye color. Britney Spears sported this shade beautifully on a recent beach vacation.
6. Beige blonde hair color is a darker base with lighter, cooler highlights. This is best on medium skin tones; just be sure to maintain some warmer tones to match your skin if necessary. Ashy or orange-ish tones could make you look washed out. This is a terrific option for those with darker natural hair color and darker eye colors.
7. Silver blonde hair color is a cool, ashy shade that moves blonde hair into a sterling hue. Best on lighter complexions and light eye colors such as blue or green, this shade is a fabulous option for naturally graying hair. For darker complexions or eye colors, add some warm honey tones to avoid looking washed out.
8. Summer blonde hair color is a flaxen hue that can be achieved with a sandy base and sunny highlights. This combination can be lightened up for paler complexions or darkened up for medium complexions. Madonna captured this look recently, adding signature ombrè pink tips to customize the look.
9. Creamy blonde hair color is a cool, whiter shade of blonde that looks best on medium to dark skin tones with darker eye colors such as brown or black. To achieve this color, ask your stylist for cream and butter balayage highlights over your darker roots. This is a perfect blonde hair color for dark hair.
Dirty blonde hair color is a medium-hued blonde with tones of wheat, or, well, "dirt" color strewn throughout. Consider this shade if you have green or brown eyes and a medium-toned skin. This look can be achieved through balayage or ombrè-style highlighting.
Honey blonde hair color is warm and shiny and looks best on medium skin tones with darker eye colors such as brown or black. Taylor Swift has personified honey blonde hair color. If you want to go honey blonde, ask your colorist to leave your darker roots intact and add honey-hued highlighting.
Bronze creamy blonde hair color is a warm, beachy-looking hue that is naturally lovely on medium, tawny complexions with light- to medium-shade eye colors such as blue, gray or light brown. Blake Lively's wavy locks define this shade. To create the look, ask your colorist to add varying tones of honey highlights through your hair's mid-length on top of a light brown base, keeping the ends ever-so-slightly lighter.
13. Golden blonde hair color is a natural-looking, multidimensional mix of butter, gold and honey hues that looks beautiful paired with fair complexions and lighter eye colors such as pale blue or hazel. This natural-looking sun-kissed blonde color is best achieved with balayage highlighting.
14. Ash blonde hair color is a darker, cooler shade of silvery blonde that is an excellent choice for those with darker natural hair, skin and eye colors. Traditional ash blonde hair color can be warmed up with buttery highlights to match skin tone if needed. This can be a great option for naturally graying hair.
15. Sandy blonde hair color is rich, warm and subtle. This blonde shade pairs best with fair skin tones and light eyes such as blue, hazel or violet. For a lovely sandy blonde look, ask your colorist for a dark blonde base with cool, beige--toned balayage highlights on the mid-lengths and ends.
16. Auburn blonde hair color is strawberry blonde with a tangerine twist. This dramatic hue can be worn with any skin tone, but looks ravishing on paler complexions with lighter eye colors such as blue, green or hazel. This is a lovely transition color from lighter summer blonde hues to darker fall shades.
17. Copper blonde hair color is a luminous darker golden hue with amber undertones. This color goes well with darker skin tones and eye colors such as brown or black. For those with darker natural hair color, copper blonde is a striking way to go blonde without looking brassy.
18. Brownish blonde, also known as "bronde" hair color is a warm, natural-looking blonde hue that looks lovely with fair and medium complexions and light to medium eye colors such as gold, light brown or blue. When dying dark hair blonde, achieve a rich, contrasting color by asking your stylist for a dark blonde base with cool-toned, buttery balayage highlights on the mid-lengths and ends.
19. Cherry Blonde Hair Color is a vivid fuchsia-toned berry color over a darker base that is beautiful for those with darker skin tones and darker eyes. This look is best created by dying the hair blonde, then adding cherry color over it.
20. Caramel blonde hair color is a light golden brown or dark iridescent blonde color that is lovely on any complexion, but most natural-looking on those with medium to dark skin tones. Reese Witherspoon wears this color well. To keep caramel blonde looking natural, start with a base of dark golden blonde tones through the mid-lengths and ends with pale highlights around the face.
21. Black blonde hair color is generally reserved for dramatic styles involving blonde hair color and black hair color worn together. Because of the contrast of very dark and light hair color on one head, any complexion or eye color can pull it off (if you're brave enough to wear it). Ombrè is a great way to get this two-toned look, though a black base with blonde highlights over it works too.
22. Dark reddish-brown blonde hair color is a stunning blend of blondes, browns and reds used on a dark base that can be customized to any skin tone or eye color. Rihanna is the queen of this technique, having successfully worn many different hair colors that run the spectrum on the hair color charts.
23. Chocolate blonde hair color is a darker shade of caramel blonde that looks warm and stunning with golden highlights. Beyonce's creamy mane with a dark base that balances her blonde locks is a lovely example of this color. Though this hair color looks best on darker skin tones with darker eye colors, it can be adjusted to suit lighter complexions. Avoid chocolate blonde shades with too much white, platinum or orange because they will look unnatural with darker skin tones.
24. Chestnut blonde hair color is typically a mix of darker hair with golden highlights, though it can be created on golden blonde hair by adding caramel highlights. This earthy-looking hue is best on dark complexions with dark eye colors such as black or brown, but can be exotic on medium skin tones with blue eyes.

Article Sharing Policy
Wiley supports the STM article sharing principles to enable research collaboration. Collaboration has always been essential to further research progress. In support of this Wiley works with many commercial and non-commercial organizations providing services for the aggregation, posting, and sharing of journal articles.
Wiley supports the measurement of the impact and usage of research articles in a distributed environment. Such measurement data, including COUNTER compliant usage statistics, provides important insights for researchers, publishers, and libraries into how research articles are discovered and used.
Articles can be shared at every stage of publication, and the ways in which this can be done are described below. Pay-to-publish (gold) open access articles can be shared anywhere without embargo as long as the embedded Creative Commons license selected by the author remains in place.
See below for full details and a quick reference guide to what can be shared and where is provided in the table below. An additional resource can be found at http://www.howcanishareit.com.
There are ways of sharing your article at every stage of publication and these are detailed below. You may also share any version of your article with individual colleagues and students if you are asked for a copy, as part of teaching and training at your institution (excluding open online sharing), and as part of a grant application, submission of thesis, or doctorate. For public sharing of your article please see the relevant sections below.
Submitted Version (the author's version that has not been peer-reviewed, nor had any value added to it by Wiley, such as formatting or copy editing):
Authors may post their submitted manuscript at any time on their personal website, in their company or institutional repository, in not-for-profit subject-based preprint servers or repositories, and on SCNs which have signed up to the STM sharing principles. Authors may wish to add a note about acceptance by the journal and upon publication it is recommended that authors add a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) link back to the final article so that users with access to Wiley Online Library may access the final version of record and make use of the fully networked research environment. The deposited version may not be updated to look like the final version of record. While this is the copyright policy, individual journals may operate different editorial policies with respect to preprints and authors should consult the relevant author guidelines.
Accepted Version (the version that incorporates all amendments made during the peer review process, but prior to the final published version):
Before the embargo* has passed authors may, in addition to posting metadata for the article, post the Accepted Version as a closed deposit (hidden until the embargo lifts) on their personal website, in their company or institutional repository, in not-for-profit subject-based preprint servers or repositories, and may share the article in private research groups including those on SCNs which have signed up to the STM sharing principles. The private research groups must be formed by invitation for a specific research purpose and be of a size that is typical for research groups within the discipline. Sharing of articles must be limited to members of the group only. The SCNs which have signed up to the sharing principles are required to provide COUNTER compliant usage data to Wiley by agreement.
After the embargo has passed the Accepted Version may be made public on these sites. The article must include a note and DOI link on the first page (see the self-archiving policy for more details) and must not be made to look like the final version of record.
*There is an embargo period of 12 months from publication for scientific, medical, and technical (STM) journals and 24 months from publication for social science and humanities (SSH) journals. Please note that while this is the current standard Wiley policy and applies to all Wiley-owned journals, society journals set their own embargo periods and some may be different. To find out the embargo policy of your journal, refer to our Author Compliance Tool.
Final Version of Record (the final published version):
This version may be shared within private research collaboration groups including those on SCNs which have signed up to the STM sharing principles.
The private groups must be formed by invitation for a specific research purpose and be of a size that is typical for research groups within the discipline. Sharing of articles must be limited to members of the group only. The SCNs which have signed up to the sharing principles are required to provide COUNTER compliant usage data to Wiley by agreement.
There should be no public posting of final articles other than by agreement with Wiley unless the article is published under a Gold Open Access model.
In accordance with the STM article sharing principles, researchers* with legitimate access to Wiley subscription articles may share the articles within private research groups, including those on SCNs which have signed up to the sharing principles.
*Commercial users should ensure that they or their organization have been properly licensed by Wiley or by a third-party to share articles in private research collaboration groups.

Normally, the biggest 3d greeting card season is Christmas (around the world). But in fact, Christmas is not the biggest occasion for greeting cards. In France, New Year occasion is more important, same in Asia. In these few years, some countries in Asia have bigger Christmas, especially for young people.
The second biggest season is holyday season. People go traveling around the world and buy greeting cards to send them back home. According to Cambridge Dictionary, the holiday season is the period around Christmas and New Year.
In Vietnam, we do not have greeting card culture. Only some young people who are affected by Western culture buy greeting cards or make cards themselves and send cards to their lovers, or friends… But most of Vietnamese do not use greeting cards for all occasions.
From 2012, our first 3D pop-up card designs appear in Viet Nam. Till now, after 4 years, most of pop-up cards in Vietnam are produced for foreign tourist.
I hope our cards will make pop-up cards culture in Viet Nam in near future.

The Devon Rural Archive (DRA) was set up in February 2006 by The Fenwick Charitable Trust to provide a much needed resource for local historians, archaeologists, genealogists and the public at large in Devon.
The DRA is aiming to rediscover the remains of buildings and landscapes which are not immediately recognisable to the untrained eye. Currently, their consultant archaeologist is engaged in research into the development of Devon Manor Houses and Farmhouses from 1300AD to the present.
In looking at the history of buildings, DRA hope to help owners and the general public further their understanding and enjoyment of historic properties and in doing so, encourage the preservation of historic features of interest.
To date the DRA have visited and produced reports on over 50 properties and landscape sites in Devon and we hope that with the help of our patron, Lucinda Lambton and the official launch of the DRA to generate further interest and awareness in our work and encourage owners of such properties and interested parties to make use of our service.


This census schedule was taken at the same time as the "regular" part of the census (the population schedule that we normally use.) The good news is that it didn't sustain nearly the damage that the 1890 population schedule did. The bad news is that it didn't survive completely unscathed. Schedules survive for about half of Kentucky through Wyoming, plus the District of Columbia. There are also a handful of pages for California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, and Kansas. The images are available on Ancestry and FamilySearch.
With the destruction of the 1890 population schedule, we need to examine every record we can to fill in the gap between 1880 and 1900. These schedules put our ancestors in a specific place at a specific time. Plus, they give us great leads for further research.


Initial version of Image Check MIB.
A table of Image check operation entries. Each entry represents an Image check operation that has been initiated.
An Image check operation entry. Each entry consists of an image name, current status of the check operation and a row status. A management station wishing to create an entry should first generate a pseudo-random serial number to be used as the index to this sparse table. The station should then create the associated instance of the row status object. It must also, create the associated instance of the image name. This image is checked for compatibility with the image already running on the active supervisor. Once the appropriate instances of all the mandatory objects have been created, either by an explicit SNMP set request or by default, the row status should be set to active to initiate the operation. Note that this entire procedure may be initiated via a single set request which specifies a row status	of createAndGo. Once an operation has been activated, it cannot be stopped. Once the operation completes, the management station should retrieve the value of the status object and delete the entry. In order to prevent old entries from clogging the table, entries will be aged out, but an entry will never be deleted within 5 minutes of completing.
Object which specifies a unique entry in the table. A management station wishing to initiate a check operation should use a pseudo-random value for this object when creating or modifying an instance of a ciscoImageCheckOpEntry.
Image file name that needs the verification. If the Image name is NULL then it is assumed that the image check is to be done with the image on standby supervisor.
The current status of the image check operation. If the status is inCompatLoose(3) or inCompatStrict(4), one can look at the detail reasons of incompatibilities by looking at ciscoImgChkResultsTable described below. If the status is compatible, then there is no need to look at the ciscoImgChkResultsTable. If the status is noStandby(6), pssErr(7), extractFail(8), fileParseErr(9) or getIncompatErr(10), there is some internal error in even starting the check compatibility process, and hence the ciscoImgChkResultsTable should not be read for any details. inProgress(2) - Image check is in progress inCompatLoose(3) - Loose incompatibility inCompatStrict(4) - Strict incompatibility compatible(5) - images are compatible noStandby(6) - standby supervisor is absent pssErr(7) - internal error extractFail(8) - Could not extract image fileParseErr(9) - Could not parse image getIncompatErr(10) - internal error in determining incompatibilities.
This table lists the features and capabilities that are incompatible for the request that was made corresponding to the instance of ciscoImgChkFeatureIndex in the ciscoImageCheckOpTable.
The index of the incompatible feature.
The index of the incompatible capability.
Whether capability check is strict or loose.
Description of the incompatibilty. For example, if the name of the incompatibilty (the instance of ciscoImgChkCapabilityName) is CAP_FEATURE_ZS_READ_ONLY_ZONING, then the description will be - 'Zone Server - Read-only zoning configured'. For each incompatibility name that appears in ciscoImgChkCapabilityName, there will be a corresponding description described by the instance of this object.

We can supply and install any type of electric garage doors in Liverpool, Merseyside.Including Canopy up and over doors, retractable up and over doors, sectional doors and roller shutter garage doors.
We install many different types of garage doors including canopy up and over, retractable up and over, sectional garage door and roller shutter door.
This is the simplest and most common type of garage door as it gives the maximum drive-through width when open. The door is balanced and assisted by torsion springs positioned above the door panel on the head of the fixing frame and is is generally only available up to 8 feet (2438mm) wide. The canopy up and over door is not usually used if the garage door is to be electric motor automated although with the use of a good quality 'bow arm converter' and a powerful operator we can automate this type of door successfully.
This type of garage door is becoming increasingly popular in the UK as the garage door panel retracts fully into the garage when open. Unlike the canopy up and over door this door converts into an electric operation easily, safely and with the least equipment required. The retractable mechanism is generally considered smoother and easier to operate.
This type of door is often one of the most popular choices of garage door. This is because it is practical, stylish, safe, secure and easy to use. They open and close in separated individual panel sections; operating vertically, making full use of the space in front of or behind your garage opening. Because of this almost any shape of garage opening can be installed to, i.e. arched, angled corners etc. This type of garage door is ideal for shorter driveways, garages next to pathways and internal space problems.
This type of door is one of the neatest solutions to garage doors available, with vertical operation and no internal tracking mechanism into your garage at all. This solution provides you with more room for parking with the additional option for storage above.
We have created a new innovative way of opening your garage doors all by text message. You can be anywhere in the world and send a text to your house to open your garage door, particularly handy if you are running a business from home. This secure system allows you to turn the electric motor off via text so no one can open your garage (not even by fob) until you text the motor to turn on, only then can you can text the motor to open the garage doors. Only the smart phone activated with our system can be used.

A Mad Desire to Dance
by Elie Wiesel
A man of mysterious wealth and traumatic background is handed from one psychoanalyst to another. It is hoped that, because she shares culture with him, the new doctor can help the patient better. But the case of Doriel Waldman turns out to be more complicated and difficult than Thérèse Goldschmidt had realized it would be. Using Freudian theory, she attempts to understand and heal him, but her work is thwarted by his non-compliance: he insists he is just mad.
In the hands of Elie Wiesel, Doriel's madness is not simply insanity. It is a dysfunction burdened with memory and fear, responsibility and uncertainty. A MAD DESIRE TO DANCE is not an easy book to read, but it is a rewarding one as Wiesel takes us from Polish forests to the dry heat of Jerusalem, from post-war France to religious Brooklyn neighborhoods. All the while, we, like Dr. Goldschmidt, are trying to understand the haunted and lonely Doriel who, in turn, is in search of the smile of a frightened child.
It is also not an easy book to describe. In post-modernist terms, our primary narrator, Doriel, is unreliable. He thinks he is sick but also cultivates his illness. He realizes that the key to health is locked in his memories but does little to release them. It is in his relationships with women that Dr. Goldschmidt looks for answers. Doriel's life is peppered with strange and romantic encounters with women. Would an unconditional love affair free Doriel from the demons (actually the dybbuk) in his soul? Wiesel's latest seems to be about hope and love and how they can be redemptive forces in even the darkest lives, unless Doriel's version of the truth cannot be trusted at all.
Filled with references to Jewish scripture, folklore and history, Doriel's story is often told in manic bursts. His mother was a Jewish Resistance agent during the war: her blond hair and flawless Polish allowing her to pass as Aryan. Doriel spent years in hiding with his father while his mother carried messages back and forth, occasionally coming to see them. His siblings were victims of anti-Semitic violence, and though his parents survived the war, they died before he was 13 --- but not before he learned more than he wanted to know of his mother's secret life.
Adopted by his loving and patient uncle and whisked away to an Orthodox community in Brooklyn, Doriel wrestles with faith and identity. His past, and especially the memory of his parents, trouble him, and he seeks truths outside his deeply religious community. Yet, even as his search takes him in what he feels to be spiritually dangerous directions, the connections to Judaism remain essential to him.
Doriel's ravings are paired with Dr. Goldschmidt's surprisingly personal case notes. She becomes obsessed with her odd and sad patient, and fears she is doing nothing to help him.
A MAD DESIRE TO DANCE is complex and challenging, more about history, brutality and faith than mental illness. Wiesel's 50th book is a compelling whirlwind of stories within stories, truths and half-truths, poetry and mythology. It is sure to amaze and perhaps even frustrate readers and is yet another important contribution by Wiesel not only to contemporary Jewish literature but to world literature as well.

Q: How did Shermy get the Finn Sword? How did Shermy get the Finn Sword?
Wasn't it destroyed and turned into Fern the human?

A: According to the fan wiki as mentioned by @DavidW in a comment, though fan wiki's AREN'T to be trusted, this is what it says.

The Finn Sword is a sentient sword created by a paradox in "Is That You?", after Finn sacrifices an alternate-reality version of himself to bring Prismo back to life.
The Finn Sword first appears in "Breezy" during Finn's vision, when Finn awakens to Breezy's final song. However, instead of seeing Breezy in her Queen form, he has a vision of Princess Bubblegum holding the Finn Sword.
In "Is that you?", visiting a much more elaborate version of Prismo's Time Room, created as a "Plan B," Finn makes a choice to save Prismo by creating a paradox that vaporizes his dream world duplicate. Instead of turning to dust, Finn's body turns into a sword, dubbed the Finn Sword by Prismo.
In "I Am a Sword", it was lost until being found by Bandit Princess, who used it to steal gold and kill people. Finn accidentally stabs the Finn Sword with the Grass Sword, rendering it inactive. The Finn in the sword is seen at the end of The Music Hole, suggesting that the sword's inactivity is the alternate Finn's choice rather than actual destruction.
In "Reboot" and "Two Swords", it is revealed that there is a little Finn living within the space of the sword, and the grass sword once again touches the Finn Sword. This results in creating a strange grass humanoid. Due to having Finn's memories he later takes on the name and personality of Finn but starts to become a different person being known as Fern. Fern was killed (shattered into grass pieces) in "Three Buckets," but was resurrected by Gumbald as seen in the episode "Seventeen."
After Fern's destruction in "Come Along With Me," his remains take the form of a seed shaped like the Finn Sword. That night, Finn and Jake plant the seedling together, which causes a massive new tree to sprout, with a remade Finn Sword embedded in its branches. Many years later into the distant future, Shermy and Beth find the sword on the top of the tree.

Battery technologies underpin green recovery plans in Europe
© Bunlue Nantaprom |
Dr Alistair Davidson, Director of the Consortium for Battery Innovation, argues that battery technologies underpin green recovery plans in Europe
Batteries were always at the heart of Europe's zero-carbon ambitions and the green recovery plans have added impetus to the drive for strategic autonomy across a range of important technologies.
At a recent meeting of the European Parliament, research and innovation were described as being of paramount importance to the achievement of Europe's post-virus recovery by the Industry, Research and Energy Committee (ITRE).
Research and innovation in batteries in Europe has a long history, but one which is steadily continuing, with support from governments, the Commission, industry and academia.
As ambitious targets are set for the decarbonisation and electrification of society, demand for batteries will only continue to grow. With a predicted 400,000 MWh of battery storage needed by 20251, all batteries will be essential to ensure the success of a clean energy future. The Consortium for Battery Innovation (CBI) has identified research and innovation in advanced lead batteries as vital to support this transition.
As a pre-competitive research organisation, CBI's mission is to be a tool for technology transfer for the global lead battery industry, comprising battery manufacturers, recyclers, materials suppliers, research institutes and universities. The central role of research in our mission allows lead batteries to be utilised for a wide range of applications to usher in the greater levels of electrification and decarbonisation needed to achieve a climate-neutral Europe.
A technology which has existed for 150 years, the lead batteries of today demonstrate vast performance improvements from earlier technology. And that is a message being carried by the EU-wide Charge the Future campaign, which demonstrates how this mature technology remains an essential part of the energy storage landscape with innovation driving continuous performance improvements.
The past 10 years have seen significant increases in the lifetime for utility grid and renewable energy applications. High-performance, low acquisition cost per kWh, paired with high recyclability of almost 100% in Europe means lead batteries are a fantastic option for energy storage systems.
From lead batteries utilised in carbon-emission reducing start-stop technology such as enhanced flooded batteries (EFB) and absorptive glass mat (AGM), to the UltraBattery®, bipolar lead batteries and lead-carbon batteries, the advancements in lead battery technology to deliver high-performing, reliable energy storage is an exciting area of research in Europe.
CBI's technical roadmap for innovation identified two key areas for improvement for lead batteries for the energy storage and automotive sectors. Improving cycle life to 5,000 cycles and improving dynamic charge acceptance to 2 Amps/Ah by 2022 will help lead battery technology to continue delivering in applications which are essential for society.
Cycle life, which is the number of charge/discharge cycles a battery can perform before losing performance ability, is a key technical parameter for energy storage applications. Across Europe, lead batteries are powering reliable, sustainable storage projects for utility and renewable energy installations. By focusing our new research programme on utility grid storage, we recognise that energy storage holds the key to a clean energy future.
As demand continues to soar, CBI is an example of an organisation undertaking research into maximising the performance of lead batteries in these applications, partnering with European-based organisations. One of CBI's research projects is using neutron diffraction for the first time in lead battery research, where batteries are being studied in-situ to deliver insights into performance.
Europe's Horizon 2020 programme has also offered exciting opportunities for battery research, with CBI coordinating a proposal bringing together a wide range of partners to conduct investigations into new battery architectures using high-brilliance synchrotron x-rays. The aim is to develop improved batteries whilst retaining reliability, safety and recycling benefits that set lead batteries apart.
But the research does not stop there. To achieve a complete energy transition, clean mobility must be one of the central pillars. Representing a fusion between clean energy and clean mobility, CBI is working with OEMs and academia to optimise the use of carbon materials to enhance battery performance, and pioneering work in the U.S. pairing EV charging stations with lead battery energy storage is an exciting prospect to explore in Europe.
All batteries will be essential for Europe's future, and policies which foster research and innovation into Europe's diverse battery landscape will be vital for clean energy ambitions.

The EU Battery Alliance: Game-changing technologies
Coordinating the Commission's work on the European Battery Alliance is one of many responsibilities held by Maroš Šefčovič, European Commissioner for Interinstitutional Relations and Foresight.(1) In May 2020, the Commissioner Šefčovič highlights how the COVID-19 crisis underlines the driving philosophy behind the EU Battery Alliance, "that is the need to bolster Europe's resilience and strategic autonomy in critical industrial sectors and key, game-changing technologies. Accelerating our work, therefore, makes perfect sense," he explains.
Šefčovič gave three examples of how the EU Battery Alliance can be built upon. The first concerns electric cars increasingly going mainstream in Europe. The second is that much progress is being made in the lithium industry to become self-sufficient. The third is that Europe has achieved the fastest growth of any region in planned battery production capacity, with plans to reach a global share of more than 14% by 2024, overtaking the U.S. and Asia (not including China, however).
"The Commission will continue to mobilise all industrial actors, Member States and the EIB to not only implement the ongoing investments but also to shift things into a higher gear," Šefčovič adds. In addition to leveraging investment, Šefčovič calls for setting up a regulatory framework for batteries that is fit for the future and building raw materials resilience as part of Europe's strategic autonomy. Looking ahead, Šefčovič is optimistic that the EU Battery Alliance will help Europe to rebound stronger and be more resilient.(2)

Today systems based on DDR chipsets are in a very interesting situation. The number of sold DDR solutions (PCs and boards separately) on all chipsets doesn't exceed the number of solutions based on a single i850 chipset and the Pentium4 processor.
DDR memory manufacturers (Micron, Hyundai, Samsung, NANYA) that hoped to earn good money haven't yet seen any good income in this business. Even at the lowest price difference the majority of users prefer SDRAM. But at last the technological process is debugged, and companies can slash prices even for the most efficient PC2100 CAS2 DDR modules. The first was Micron, but it is obvious that other companies will follow it very soon.
In a such situation DDR solutions will quickly become very attractive - a real difference in the price for ready systems will be defined only by the boards, which are expensive than SDR competitors by some 25%. But an extra 5% charge for a system block is a good deal for 10-15% performance gain.
So, we are on the eve of a new turn of a price war between two perspective platforms: AMD Athlon + DDR and Intel Pentium4 + RDRAM.
The first pair is backed by Micron, that reduces prices for DDR. But it should be noted that it is difficult to purchase a non-brand DDR module, while there are a lot of cheap faked-up PC133 SDRAM modules. Besides, the DDR is supported to some extent by Pentium III systems but the performance benefit is not so considerable as in case of the Athlon.
The second pair has also amazed us by an enormous price reduction for Intel processors, and many are ready to buy it right away just because Intel products have never cost so cheap.
It is difficult to tell a winner right now, especially considering that new processors appearing these days can drastically change the course of the history. Here are some of them - Athlon4 Palomino, Pentium III Tualatin, Pentium4 Northwood, Xeon Foster.
The today's hero - the SiS735 chipset with AMD Athlon and DDR memory support hasn't forgotten to take its piece of the pie. At the price of $27 and with its possibilities the chipset together with its brother SiS635 is a budding player on the DDR chipset market.
A mainboard on the most efficient DDR chipset, AMD760, is difficult to find. Many manufacturers consider a shortage and a price of the processor together with a 6-layer design of the board a serious obstacle for sale and promotion of their solutions on the AMD760. But by reducing the price and starting a large-scale production of it the company can just kill the market and ruin their relations with all other manufacturers which are making every effort to increase sales volumes of processors. So, the AMD760 board is a rare expensive exclusive product, but thus they don't damage interests of VIA, ALi, and SiS.
The ALi MAGiK 1 is by contrast easy to get, that is why it attracted attention of all brand-name board manufacturers. But today one actually can purchase ASUS A7A266 and Iwill KA266. However, the chipset is not under sale simply because manufacturers can't find a right sphere of its application and don't know what boards should be based on it. The performance shown together with the DDR-memory is only a bit better than that reached together with the PC133 SDRAM, in some applications the latter couple goes even ahead.
So, if new revisions of the chipset, drivers and the BIOS won't improve the situation, the ALi MAGiK 1 will play on a lower level coupled with the SDRAM, where it will be able to compete against the VIA KT133A. By the way, not so long ago Acer Labs Inc. announced one more chipset - M1649 which is, in fact, the ALi MAGiK 1 lacking DDR SDRAM support. It costs cheaper and is positioned as a direct competitor to the VIA KT133A.
So, now we have only two - the VIA KT266, mainboards on which are already appearing on the shelves, though the debugging process hasn't stopped yet, and the SiS735.
Today the budget solutions on the 630 and 730 from SiS are very popular, though there is a shortage of production facilities. Nearly all produced chipsets are consumed by only two companies - ASUS and Elitegroup, and in case of success of the SiS635 and 735, exactly these companies will be main partners in their promotion.
So, what's the strength of the SiS735 ?
The SiS chipset differs from other chipsets, as you know, in an untraditional approach: a north and a south bridges are combined in one chip. And all advanced technological processes play in hands of the company - now they can make chipsets more complex and perfect without caring about high percentage of defective products. Besides, SiS, unlike VIA, has its own high-tech production facilities, and chips, therefore, cost cheaper for the company than those produced by Taiwanese monsters - TSMC and UMC.
But, unfortunately, there is a shortage in their own facilities, and the company will probably soon apply to the third party. But the production they have today and "two-in-one" chipsets give a good advantage in the price wars on the chipset market. Due to the SiS630 and 730 chipset ASUS, which traditionally earns more than its competitors, manages to press MSI and Gigabyte on the market of third countries offering mainboards priced lower than $60.
It is obvious that such dumping policy is also applicable to the new chipsets. And their price of $27 will help the SiS735 boards to surmount a psychological barrier of $100 (this may happen even in the case of boards with support of both memory types).
It seems that the SiS735 will sell good without attracting too much attention to its performance, thus catalyzing price reduction for DDR-chipsets from other manufacturers.
Now we are turning right to the SiS735 chip. We will abandon a traditional approach of paying the major attention to the north bridge, leaving a couple of lines for a south one and an interaction way for the bridges. It is connected with the fact that SiS doesn't show up technological aspects of pipelining and buffering of data flows in the north bridge. By the way, a rather scarce information support has always been a weak point of SiS.
Let's start with a system controller, also known as a north bridge (NB) which supports all modern functions.
The processor bus controller EV-6 supports Athlon/Durons for the Socket-462 with the bus frequencies 200 and 266 MHz.
The memory controller supports PC66, PC100 and PC133 SDRAM, as well as PC1600 and PC2100 DDR SDRAM. The memory supported is the same for both types and makes 6 banks (3 slots) with a possibility to install modules up to 512 MBytes (1.5 GBytes totally).
The memory interface can work both synchronously with FSB, and at the frequency +- 33 MHz irrespective of the memory type used. It means that the Athlon with the 200 MHz bus can be used both with PC100 SDR and PC1600 DDR, and PC133 SDR and PC2100 DDR. And on the contrary, in a system on the Athlon with 266 MHz bus the chipset will allow for PC100 SDR and PC1600 DDR modules.
The AGP controller is compatible with the AGP v2.0 specification and supports everything necessary for the maximum compatibility and efficiency modes - AGP 1X, 2X and 4X, as well as SideBand Addressing (SBA) and FastWrites. For increasing the performance of the AGP subsystem the developers use pipelining, and a 8-channel cache for GART for 16 records.
The south bridge has a great deal of functions. It has two IDE channels with UltraDMA 33/66/100 protocols support, 2 USB controllers with 3 ports support each and a possibility to install up to 6 PCI BusMaster devices. Besides, there is a normal network controller supporting 10/100 MBytes Fast Ethernet or 1/10 MBytes HomePNA 1.0/2.0, with drivers for all operating systems. The chipset provides a possibility to use all additional expansion slots including AMR, CNR and ACR. And of course, you can find there an integrated AC'97 sound.
I also should note a support of the integrated RTC, PS/2 controllers for a keyboard and a mouse, and interface for an external LPC (Low Pin Count) controller.
And now I will draw your attention to a controller connecting the bridges of the chipset.
A low prime cost of the chipset is not the only one advantage of packing the NB and the SB into one chip. The major advantage is a possibility to extend a throughput of the bus between the bridges. One may oppose saying that the Hub Architecture and the V-Link which provides 266 MBytes/s is more than enough. But on the other hand, there is a USB 2.0 or even more greedy SerialATA... Intel and AMD, for example, has been promoting their technologies Infiniband and Hypertransport.
And the SiS735 is again fully armed - the engineers have tied the bridges by their own unique technology - MuTIOL (Multi-Threaded I/O Link) which provides a bandwidth equal to 1.2 GBytes/s. It's impressing, look at this bus closer.
The idea is the following: the epoch of the "Bus Master" is coming to its end being unable to provide the required pipelining and parallelism. So, now engineers are developing new protocols based on high-efficient commutators providing a possibility of Concurrent Access for all devices. But these technologies are too complex for connection of a SB and NB, but the idea of parallelism suits perfectly.
This idea was taken as a basic by the SiS developers. Thus they started to integrate the MuTIOL in their chipsets. Each built-in Master device, including 2 IDE channels, 2 USB channels, a MAC controller and AC'97 sound/modem, gets a dedicated stream that connects a device with a NB. Additionally a separate stream is provided for external PCI devices. So, a theoretical peak bandwidth makes the specified 1.2 GBytes/s.
This approach will help to win in case of intensive operations with peripherals, especially in multitask applications.
The SiS735 chipset is embedded into a 682-pin 37.5x37.5 mm BGA-case fabbed at 0.18 micron at the SiS' own factory. The Vcore is only 1.8 V, and the chipset doesn't heat up even after even a long period of exploitation. It saves mobo manufactures from supplying heat sinks and fans, and it provides a better stability for the system on the whole.
On the other side, this approach has some drawbacks. With an increase in a digit capacity or in the number of memory buses (I should note that a dual-channel DDR is associated today only with the NVIDIA Crush, but not with SiS), or in case of realization of the Quad-Pumped Bus in the chipset for Pentium4 our chip should be equipped with a great deal of outputs. In this case board manufacturers will have to migrate to more expensive 6-layer PCBs.
Since the material concerning this board is very interesting, the site's editors decided to compromise. In this article we won't give detailed information on the board itself and on the MuTIOL performance - you will get this information in the forthcoming update. I should note only that the stability and quality of the board implementation are very high and do not differ from production samples of top manufacturers.
The board has a pre-production BIOS which can help you to change manually any of nearly 50 registers of the chipset intended for operating modes and latency of the memory, AGP etc. We tried to establish conditions for the fight as equal as possible for all competitors, that is why the results shown by the SiS735 chipset were achieved with the CAS2.5 and other settings close to those of competitors. All other chipsets were also tested with the DDR CAS2.5.
On the other hand, the boards based on the chipsets with SDRAM support were tested at the minimal timings, because it is not difficult to find PC133 memory working with the minimal timings, and as for the DDR, today one can get only CAS2.5 modules impossible to overclock or without a possibility to decrease latencies.
The chipsets with the SDRAM memory are working at the maximum performance level they are capable of, and the DDR ones have still some reserve.
On the whole the SiS735 wins from all competitors in the 3DMark 2001 except the VIA KT266. Is that true that the AGP problems that not so long ago let the AMD760 down are also peculiar to the DDR-chipset from SiS?
In the High Detail mode the SiS735 performs better than even the AMD760, and in the Low Detail mode, where the memory subsystem speed matters more than the AGP speed, the VIA Technologies chipsets beat all contestants: they are coming ahead by a great margin.
The situation is again similar to the AMD-760 motherboard benchmarking. The VIA KT266 is leading (and even the KT133A) in the Low Detail modes. This superiority is also absent in the subtests Lobby and Nature! It is interesting that the SiS735 falls behind the AMD760 nowhere - it even beats the latter in the performance.
Here the SiS735 doesn't shine. That's strange - considering that a memory subsystem in this chipset is quicker, than in case of the VIA and is on the level of the AMD-760, the results of the SiS and AMD in Quake III at low resolutions must be similar. But the SiS takes the middle leaving behind the ALi MAGiK 1 and VIA KT133A, but yielding to the VIA KT266 and AMD760.
It again looks strange. What does this diagram mean?
Here the situation becomes again explainable - the SiS735 shows the performance comparable to the AMD760.
Losing sight of the Quake III diagrams for a while, we can see that the SYSmark 2000 and ZDM Winstone 2001 results are showing a close picture - in the first test the SiS735 and AMD760 are leading, falling one behind the other by turn in the Office Productivity and Internet Content Creation, and in the Winstone 2001 the SiS735 beats its competitor in both subtests.
The new child of the Silicon Integrated Systems is a really good product. The SiS735 performs not worse than the ALi MAGiK 1, and in some applications it turns to be even faster than the VIA Apollo KT266 and the AMD760. Considering its price, the chipset has really a lot of things to be pride of. If no bugs are revealed, the company will get a trump allowing to compete against top leaders in the sphere of chipsets for Athlon-systems. However, in the field of serious workstations our hero won't be able to beat the AMD760 due to the lack of ECC-memory. But will the company manage to deliver the chipsets in the required volume so that the chipset can really compete in this field?
But it is still unclear what caused such strange operation of the memory subsystem and the AGP port, well noticeable when comparing the results of the SiS735 and AMD760. In some tests the SiS leads, in other the AMD is ahead. We will make two suggestions, but they might be wrong.
The first suggestion concerns the speed of the memory subsystem, which is sometimes better in case of the SiS, and in some tests the AMD excels. I think that the only reason for it is the AMD760's proprietary feature called SuperBypass. As you know, the SuperBypass allows to ignore in some cases some stages when processing requests for reading data from the memory or for recording there, what sometimes allows to decrease the latency maximum by 25%. But everything depends on an application. Further it is obvious: where the function works, the AMD760 is faster than the SiS735. And where the latency is less critical, the SiS takes the lead.
The second suggestion is based on the fact that the SiS goes ahead by a great margin in the Quake III when the AGP data rate is one of the major factors, and in the 3DMark 2001, Rage Expendable and Unreal Tournament its performance is not so impressing. The SiS735's superiority is lost as soon as the chipset comes to the Direct3D API. This API loves DiME very much, i.e. it uses AGP-texturing. I hope that at least one "performance issue" of the SiS735 can be improved by debugging the GART-driver which controls the work of the AGP-video card with the memory (by means of the chipset) in the course of the above operation. However, the process can slow down.


Last month, UFC president Dana White (Pictured) claimed there was no possible way he could police everything his fighters do or say. Although, one day after Rashad Evans made a controversial statement referencing the child molestation scandal at Penn State University, White revealed he had a discussion with Evans regarding the inappropriate nature of his remark.
Whether MMA has officially hit the mainstream is debatable. However, the closest the UFC has come to achieving such notoriety is through their new partnership with FOX. Ironically, it was during yesterday's presser to promote the UFC's return to the network where Evans issued his statement.
During a heated exchange with Phil Davis, Evans told his light heavyweight counterpart that, "I'm gonna put those hands on you worse than that dude did to them other kids at Penn State." The former UFC champion was referencing the child molestation situation that's currently under investigation at Davis' alma mater.
An NFL, NBA or MLB player would not only have been crucified for uttering such nonsense, but they would likely be fined and face possible suspension for drawing negative attention to his team and league.
While White didn't sound prepared to financially punish Evans, he was certain "Suga" received his stern message loud and clear.
"The whole thing with me is, people are looking to me," White stated. "What do you want me to do? You want me to have our lawyers draw something up and I'll come out and read it to you guys?


I'm on the road, currently in Columbus Ohio, working my way through a two week road trip that has taken me to Ontario to visit family and to New Brunswick where I was part of a remarkable hosting team for the Art of Hosting Working Across Divides. It was a timely gathering for 70 people from government, civil society, and social enterprise to come and learn how to work with differences.
In Canada's only bilingual province, language is a massive difference between people, and New Brunswick has a multitude of language cultures. There are 34 local French accents alone in New Brunswick and probably just as many English ones too, having to do with class and ethnicity and proximity to the sea or the woods.
In the last provincial election there, the virus of populism had its day and took these existing differences and turned them into divides. Right wing populists have a well-trod strategy for doing this. Instead of pointing to differences between people, they tap the fear that people have of people who are different than them, without naming the other. This is called "dogwhistle politics." Once they find a fear of the other that elicits an emotional response, they double down on the fear often, but not always, with lies and misrepresentation. When their political opponents offer up diversity and difference as an asset to a healthy society, the populists accuse them of "divisiveness." They claim that only their approach will bring "unity" typically by eliminating any conversation that recognizes the value of differences. Often their "unity" platform is basically assimilitation: "if only you were like us, we'd have unity; if you want to be different, you're creating division." Sometimes they outright declare such an emphasis on difference to be "racist." If you want to see this in action, visit Rebel Media, an organization I will simply refuse to link to. They are great at this.
The pithy insight on difference and divisiveness that struck me in this Art of Hosting is this: differences are real and useful, and division is one thing you can do with them. People are different, and offer different perspectives, lived experiences, and world views on things. These differences are essential to living and working in complexity, because a homogeneous view of a situation leaves you open to crises hitting you unawares. Cultivating difference is a good strategy for surviving and thriving in a complex situation. Seeking out differences of opinion is essential, finding people who are different than you and working with them makes you all smarter.
The way to defeat populism is to not allow people to play on your fears of other people who are different from you. It means convening incredibly diverse spaces and creating the conditions for people to show up with their unique perspectives, working WITH differences. That sometimes means doing things that make differences more stark, to explore different experiences, different ideas and different stories, so we can learn from each other. And it sometimes means making differences less pronounced so that we can find common purpose or shared perspective.
Divisiveness does not come from people working with differences. Divisiveness comes from people inserting fear into the gaps between people who are different.

Editor's Note: Nothing says "brunch" quite like a hearty egg dish! This recipe for Country Vegetable Frittata has it all, with plenty of eggs, cheese, and fresh vegetables in the ingredients list. You'll only need one ovenproof skillet to prepare this easy egg dish recipe, which will be great news for anyone who has to wash the dishes after the meal. You'll have a great start to the day when you include this filling and no-fuss frittata in your menu. If you'd like to try a few twists on this recipe, then make sure to check out the authors' suggested variations following the instructions.
Sauté the onion and bell peppers in the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat until slightly caramelized, about 25 minutes. Add the garlic and cook an additional minute.
Whisk together the eggs, milk, thyme, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture into the pan and cook over low heat until the bottom is set, 3 to 4 minutes. The top should still be moist and creamy. Sprinkle the eggs with the Parmesan.
Place the skillet under the hot broiler and cook until golden and sizzling, about 2 minutes.
Cut into wedges and serve the frittata hot from the skillet or at room temperature.
Broccoli: Omit the peppers and onion. Instead, sauté scallions and garlic in butter. Add 2 cups of broccoli florets. Season with red pepper flakes.
Mushroom: Omit the peppers. Cook the onion until translucent, add 1 cup sliced mushrooms, a splash of dry sherry, and a pinch of tarragon.
Um YES please! Frittatas are one of my favorite breakfasts, and they're so easy to make. Plus this recipe sounds like a great way to use up some of those veggies from the garden.
I hadn't tried a frittata before and my opinion after this one is positive. This would be a good breakfast when company is over.
I thought this was pretty good! I actually liked the sweetness of the peppers. I did add a little hot sauce on the side, but found I didn't need much because I enjoyed the dish as is.
Next time less green peppers and perhaps some spicy heat. Was too sweet (peppers) and not enough heat flavor. Scallions? Lil habanero pepper?
I thought it was good, but I agree with Nina Cabina; this recipe could have used a bit more spice.
This frittata was the perfect morning bite. I loved the addition of all the vegetables and the texture was just right. I think it is a great recipe to make ahead and reheat throughout the week.
This was not bad or good. It was very mediocre. I love eggs for breakfast and this could have used a little more flavor. Maybe it's just because I'm addicted to hot sauce.
