Re: what is Advanced Search Engine Optimization ?
Advanced SEO can help you get good quality one way links. It will help drive organic traffic to your website. The service is complete value for money. I enthusiastically recommend it to all webmasters. It helped me multiply my sales and boosted my profits dramatically.
Advanced Search Engine Optimization? Well, it's a very vast topic to talk to. All I can say is that we are in a world where there are no concrete theories since we are dealing with search engines and their updates.
Common SEO methods can't be considered as advance since it existed many years ago. If you are abiding with search engine guidelines, then I think it's the only time to call your SEO skills advance.
Advanced Search engine optimization is the use of a variety of techniques to make it easier for search engines to find content on a website. This helps the pages get indexed on the search engines faster and have a higher rank in the search results. People searching for terms related to the site's content tend to click high ranked results first, leading to a big traffic (and revenue) boost for those sites in the top positions.
As per my opinion SEO can help you get top quality one way hyperlinks. It will help generate natural visitors to your website. The service is finish value for money. I swiftly suggest it to all website owners. It assisted me increase my sales and increased my income considerably.
Sometimes, "advanced" just means new or radical. Google's algorithm changed more than times previous year, so keeping up with the newest can be significant, and it undoubtedly takes an advanced SEO to keep up with all the news.
I think if you want to lean advanced search engine optimization tricks than Regularly read Panda updates and learn complex SEO term like cloaking,keyword stuffing etc.

Modern coal stoves are UL rated and burn hard anthracite coal much more cleanly than in the past. Coal is also possibly the most cost-effective fuel, and it has a higher BTU rate than wood, so you need less to meet the same heat demand.

Somalia: Islamic Radicals Beset On All Sides
June 28, 2011: AU peacekeepers in Mogadishu continue to lead the offensive against al Shabaab. More foreign terrorists are being encountered, as al Shabaab has increasing problems recruiting Somalis to fight. The AU has to face sniping and roadside bombs from al Shabaab, but uses its superiority in artillery and mortars to blast al Shabaab out of any defensive positions. This angers civilians, because al Shabaab fighters keep trying to use human shields to protect themselves. This does work against the AU troops (from Uganda and Burundi).
The AU has received Raven UAVs. These 2 kg (4.4 pound) aircraft are launched by throwing them. A video game-like controller enables the operator to see what's below the UAV for up to 45 minutes per sortie. Replace or recharge the battery, and launch it again. American and other NATO forces have been using Raven in Iraq and Afghanistan for over five years. The AU troops know all about Raven, and had asked for them. This is part of $45 million in military aid the U.S. is providing Uganda and Burundi for their peacekeepers in Somalia.
Outside of Mogadishu, al Shabaab is having increasing problems holding back the Sufi militias of Ahlu Sunna Waljama (ASW). It's gotten to the point where ASW is going from village to village, arresting known al Shabaab supporters. Al Shabaab is also getting more resistance because of attempts to tax farmers and merchants. Al Shabaab is short of cash, and trying to get it from the locals (during the longest drought in decades). This is producing armed resistance. Al Shabaab has also made itself unpopular by arresting and executing those it suspects are spying on them. That could be just about anyone.
Kenya now has the largest refugee camp in the world, at Dadaab near the Somali border. Currently, about 10,000 starving and dehydrated Somalis, mostly women and children, enter the camp each week. Current population is over 350,000.
In Puntland, a pro-al Shabaab warlord (Mohamed Atom) and his Islamic radical followers continues to battle government troops around the coastal town of Galgala. The Puntland government has been fighting warlord (and arms dealer) Mohamed Atom for years. It's the kind of divisive behavior that has kept southern Somalia in turmoil for decades. Mohamed Atom and his allies have joined forces with al Shabaab to try and take control of Puntland. But so far the Puntland militias have been too powerful. The seizure, last month, of Galgala, was more of a media stunt than anything else. Government troops soon arrived and chased out the Atom forces. But groups of Islamic radical gunmen still roam the area, killing and terrorizing. Puntland has other problems with criminal activity by some clans, as well as the warlords who have taken over several towns as bases for piracy operations. There is also violence next door in Somaliland, where government troops fight clans from Puntland. These disputes are largely over land use.
June 25, 2011: Apparently after bribes were paid, six foreigners were freed in Mogadishu. The six were arrested last month as they were caught transporting $3.6 million in ransom north, to pay for the liberation of a ship held by Somali pirates. While technically illegal to move that kind of cash through Mogadishu airport, it had long been tolerated. But apparently someone wanted a larger fee, or something like that, and the arrests were made.
June 23, 2011: About ten kilometers south of the southern port of Kismayo, armed helicopters attacked an al Shabaab base near the Kenyan border. At least 15 al Shabaab men were killed, and U.S. SOCOM (Special Operations Command) is suspected of carrying out the attack. SOCOM has done this sort of thing before.
June 22, 2011: Abdiweli Mohamed Ali has been selected to replace Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed as Prime Minister. Both men moved back to Somalia, from the United States (there they had worked, after obtaining graduate degrees) to help build a new government. Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed was seen as an honest reformer by most Somalis, but was disliked (for the same reasons ) by most of his fellow government officials, and was forced to resign on the 19th. Abdiweli Mohamed Ali is seen as someone more willing to go along with the corrupt practices.
A senior al Shabaab leader died from wounds received in central Somalia, while leading fighters against Sufi militias.

Chennai's transgender activist trains community members in filmmaking
CHENNAI - A transgender activist, Kalki Subramaniam, trains her community members in documentary film-making in Chennai.
Subramaniam said on Friday the Information Technology could play a tremendous role in the empowerment of marginalised, stigmatised transgender community.
"If you look our country (India), the current scenario is that in Information and Media Technology our country is one of the fastest growing countries in the world and actually this could play a tremendous role in the empowerment of marginalised, stigmatised community like our transgender community," said Subramaniam.
A documentary, made by Kalki and seven transgender women, was recently screened at the Russian Cultural Centre in the city.
"Through this project 'Kalki', which is my dream project, I am training them (community members) as documentary filmmakers and mostly as community as journalists. So, they get a platform, they get good opportunity to tell the world not only about their stories but they can also tell the world about the issues they care for," said Subramaniam.
Kalki with its community members has filmed seven documentaries to bring changes in the society about transgenders and projecting dangers from diseases like AIDS. By Jaikumar (ANI)

Light Up – Detroit's Mike Ward Shines on Reflective, Poignant Americana Folk Tales

Mike Ward believes in light-bulb moments.
The Detroit Americana folk singer-songwriter discovered a recent songwriting prompt illuminated a bright idea – a new track called "Our Turn to Shine."
"That song actually began as a song prompt from John Lamb's songwriting retreat. His songwriters' retreat, which I did last year and then I just got back from, I can't say enough about it," Ward said. "It just sort of jumpstarted me last year, and he does these really long involved prompts, and it was about changing out incandescent bulbs for LED bulbs."
As one of Ward's newest tracks, "Our Turn to Shine" features fast acoustic strums intertwined with a nostalgic, hopeful feel – "I'm a dinosaur made of glass and tin/Take a new one out and screw a new one in/But for now, I'll light the way/Brighten up your everyday/If only for a short time/It's still my turn to shine."
"It had all these specifics in it. I've kept most of them, and I have reworked it since I got back from the camp to try and make it more of a universal appeal. It basically has become a metaphor for even if you're old, there are parts of you that are still usable, you can still shine," he said. "It's sort of like let's all celebrate that aspect in ourselves. A lot of the songs I've been writing over the last year I think as I look at my experience and my life, it has crept into a lot of songs."
Ward also shines on his other latest single, "Content," which he submitted for NPR's 2019 Tiny Desk Contest. The pensive track includes a beautiful acoustic guitar as its sonic centerpiece – "It's a simple life in a complex world/ I want what's mine and you want what's yours/But when you're all by yourself and the money is all spent/Are you gonna leave this world completely content?"
"It's really about what do you regret, what don't you regret, what will you be content with when you leave this earth, and how do you want to be remembered – that's sort of the gist of it. I do write some fairly downer songs, but usually when I have a song that I'm trying to make a point with, or it has a serious undertone, I try and find ways to keep levity involved in it. From the influence of John Prine, Steve Earle and Warren Zevon, songwriters like that who always seem to have a way of not taking it too seriously, those are songwriters who I really admire," Ward said.
Insightful Sonic Tales Behind 'We Wonder'
Ward's "We Wonder" album artwork includes a photo of his late brother Paul taken by their father.
Those two exquisite tracks are among some of Ward's latest new recordings since releasing his poignant "We Wonder" album in 2018. With insightful tales about love, family, growth and aging, Ward weaves a gorgeous Americana orchestration of acoustic guitars, violins, harmonicas and keyboards to provide a timeless, lyric-driven sound akin to Jason Isbell and Dawes.
Ward teamed up with Lucy Little (violin), Robert Tye (guitar), Bill Sadley (harmonica) and Jules Anna Jones (keys) to record "We Wonder's" 10 touching tracks in Chicago, Detroit and Lansing with engineers Ryan Anderson at MusicTown Detroit, Mike Regan at Another Country and Steve Curran at Harvest Creative.
"I went really spare, I didn't want to deal with a lot of production, and I didn't want to do a lot of overdubbing. The only song that we did some additional tracks on was 'We Wonder,' where Lucy did some vocals," said Ward, who's inspired by Simon & Garfunkel and Crosby, Stills & Nash.
"The engineer and producer, Mike Regan, he was a great young guy who's now in LA. That sort of set the tone because those ('We Wonder,' 'The Other Side' and 'The Stream') were the first ones that got recorded, and when I came back here to Detroit, I wanted to keep it in that spare vein, and I had Billy Sadley, he and I were starting to do some shows together, so he joined me on the other tracks back here in Detroit. Most of these were all done as a single recording."
The album's splendid title track whisks listeners away to a life-changing reverie with delicate acoustic guitars and violin plucks as Ward and Little beautifully harmonize – "You begin your life before you begin to swim/But remember, the water was there before you/So don't abuse it, use it in the right way/Games here are here to play tomorrow and today/But remember, not to cheat/For the day goes by, you're bound to get beat/And you wonder about the wind/Will it ever blow your way again."
Another standout track includes "The Other Side," a five-minute reflective ode to growing up in an Irish Catholic family with eight children. Despondent acoustic guitars and weeping harmonica transport listeners to a vivid memory of Ward's family day-trip to Canada – "They left without me/I was still on the other side/To this day, I can't recall if I even cried/Got some sympathy out of it, a Coca-Cola and a bag of chips/I knew it wouldn't be long before I'd see them on the other side."
"It was a true story, I got left in Canada as a kid when I was really young, and I could see their car driving over the bridge. My sister brought a friend home, and we had eight kids, and my mom just counted the heads, and there were eight, and they took off, and then when they got home, they realized, 'Oh, somebody's missing,'" Ward said.
"My brothers tell me, 'You've been milking this for a long time.' It led me to a place when I started writing it I was simply chronicling the moment that it happened, but where it led me was to another place because we've had some tragedy in our family over the years. When you have a big family like that, it's gonna happen. It sort of just wrote itself from that point on."
"We Wonder's" album cover includes a stunning photo of Ward's late brother Paul, who died at age 16 in a car accident the day after Christmas in 1965. As an amateur photographer and cinematographer, Ward's father took the photo of Paul under the Blue Water Bridge in Port Huron during the late '50s.
'I'm 45'
The album's cover also symbolically represents similar crystal clear moments in Ward's past, especially the two versions of "I'm 45." Both versions lament being unemployed and 100 pounds overweight as well as having no hair – "I'm 45, and I ain't got no mother/I'm 45, and I ain't got no brother/I sit here with my cousin and my niece/I think how nice it would be to get a piece/I'm 45, and I ain't got no other."
The first version includes Sadley on harmonica while the second version spotlights Little's violin. "I couldn't honestly decide which one I liked. Ultimately, I just put them both on it. I wrote it when I was 25, and it was pieced together from my years of hitchhiking between Ann Arbor and Port Huron and Adrian and Port Huron, all the people I met and my view of a downtrodden factory worker of years and years. At the time, I thought I could say I'm 25, but all these things couldn't happen to a 25 year old. I gotta make it older, and to me at 25, 45 seemed ancient," Ward said.
"I'm 45" also doubles as the inspiration behind Ward's refreshing 2014 debut release, which includes 12 home demos compiled by Ward's family to celebrate his 60th birthday. Together, Ward's family found an independent publisher who produced a digital version of "Not 45 Anymore." Ward's filmmaker son also included three or four of Ward's songs in a short film while he was living Sweden.
"He showed me some of the responses that he was getting, and they were as much about the music as they were about the film. It was like, 'OK, I really need to do this,' and so my wife and I set out on a plan to start going to open mics, getting my name out, trying to work on new songs and new material, meeting people and networking," said Ward, who previously worked in advertising.
"When I did retire in 2017, I was able to jump right in with both feet into the songwriting world in the Detroit area, and I'm now I'm expanding into Ann Arbor, Grand Rapids and Traverse City."
From Open Mics to the Live Stage

Along with his wife Angela, Ward frequents open mics and hosts them at different Detroit venues. He also participates regularly in songwriter rounds at Dixie Moon Salon, The Dovetail, Raven Café, the Gaelic League Irish American Club of Detroit and Otus Supply.
Today, Ward and Angela partner with Chuck and Judy Brown to host open mics during the first or second Sundays of the month at Detroit's Lexus Velodrome.
"The last time we had 20 acts, and we had to really move them through," said Ward, who goes by the nickname PsychoWard and writes under the publishing name Psychosongs. "We do like that part of it because it allows us to hear people and encourage people. We try and get to other ones as well to support them and mine for other talent."
This Saturday, Ward will join singer-songwriters Michelle Held and Dan Minard for "A Winter Songwriter Night" at Detroit's Eastern Market Brewing Co. He also will perform at Bogart'z Jan. 24 in Detroit and Feb. 1 at Crazy Wisdom in Ann Arbor with Dave Falk.
"I've been doing songwriting workshops, and I went to Folk Alliance Region Midwest," Ward said. "Just through the friendships I've developed, the whole community has been really helpful to me, guiding me, and that part of it I can't be more thankful for."
Ward also will start working soon on his third album, which will include more collaborations with local musicians and feature a more produced sound. "I'm actually coming off a songwriting workshop, and I wanted some time to write, and I wanted some time to research recording studios. What I'm really looking forward to are all the shows that I'm going to get to see that I usually don't get to go to because I'm performing," he said.

The teenager hadn't a map, had been scared when the mist had come down, and had run out of water. He was just a few miles into a long walk.
The very soggy group of four adults were wandering lost in torrential rain trying to find their way off the cloud-enveloped and wind swept mountain.
I am writing this in a Lake District café at the end of Day 2 of a week of personal mountain training and preparation for a trip to the Himalayas in November. It is also a week for reflection, and reconnecting with a number of friends.
Both incidents happened in the last 48 hours. I am an experienced mountain leader and was able to calm the teenager, give him some spare water, and guide him on his way. And I was able to lead the soggy group off the mountain and down to safety.
Providing help was instinctive; yet my later reflections on their planning, preparation, and performance were judging and uncharitable. "How could these people be so stupid and unprepared. Have they any idea of the danger they were in?!" Probably not.
Most people don't knowingly place themselves in un-assessed danger.
When you engage in new projects and endeavours do you ever wonder if others might be able to guide and advise? Before the journey? Can their learning and experience also help you along some or all of the way?
What value do you place on this? Do you know what your learning curve looks like? How much are you leaving to hope and good fortune? Learning -by-doing can be fun and exhilarating, but how amazing could the journey be with tailored expert support?

This document describes the creation, configuration and execution of simple NW BPM which involve calling a synchronous RFC defined in backend ECC, pass data and which returns a complete record of data inserted in a table in ECC.
This will ensure that the RFC which was created in ECC is available and ready to use in NW BPM as shown below.
Select "New" to add a new provider system which is ECC(R/3) as shown below.
Sys No: system number of the ECC system. Get this from Logon pad.
Runtime Authentication settings: Select Technical user and provide appropriate user name and pwd of the user created in ECC system and click Next.
if all the above steps are correct, then you will see a green icon that the connection test is successful to the ECC(R/3) system as shown below.
Now, a summary of the sys connection information to ECC(R/3) system will be displayed.
Functionality of this RFC: This module will accept 2 parameters as input, inserts a record in a table and returns the complete record as synchronous response to the NW BPM created in SAP PO.
Provide the following parameters and click finish.
The new process development component will be created as shown below.
Provide the following parameters and click finish. Keep a note of the name of the service group as this will be used later during deployment.
Right click on Processess –> New Process and create a new process. Provide the following information and click Next.
Keep "Create start and end event from the selected trigger" and click finish. The following BPM will be created.
Now, Go to Window –> Show View –> Other and type "search console" to bring up the search console.
Provide the following parameters in the search console to search for RFC and click on search.
Find: Function Module which was created in ECC. In my case it is "YBAPI_PITEST".
This will return the YBAPI_PITEST RFC as shown below.
Now, drag and drop the RFC from the search console to the BAPIBPM process which we have created earlier.
The BAPIBPM process will appear like as below.
The appropriate Service Interface definitions for the imported RFC will automatically created in Project Explorer.
Similarly, import SI_PO_BAPI_Req which was already created in ESR. This interface will be used to capture the request triggered to BAPIBPM in the start event. This will be an "inbound" interface with interface pattern "Stateless(XI 3.0 Compatible)". Uncheck Point-Point selection.
Corresponding message type MT_BPI_Req contains the following structure.
Import BPI_Req and BPI_Res DTs which are already created in ESR to be used for capturing request and response data from the synchronous RFC.
Hence 2 parameters will be passed in the request to RFC and 12 parameters will be returned by RFC as synchronous response.
Now, the Project Explorer will look like this.
Drag and drop BPI_Req, BPI_Res and ZSFLIGHT data types to the BPM process. These will create data objects DO_BPI_Req, DO_BPI_Res and DO_ZSFLIGHT as shown below.
Click on Start event in BAPIBPM and go to Properties.
Map the IP_CARRID and IP_CONNID of MT_BPI_Req to corresponding fields in Process Context for DO_BPI_Req as shown below.
Operation: Will be automatically selected. In my case, it contains both In and Out parameters as its synchronous.
Select "Choose existing" and "XXX_ABAP" which is the service group we have created earlier and click Finish.
Map the corresponding fields in the BAPI response YBAPI_PITEST.Response to fields in DO_BPI_Res. This is ensure that the synchronous response which was returned by RFC in ECC is appropriately mapped to our target structure in BPM process.

Mammoth amount of potential evidence to be examined in William Tyrrell search
As the William Tyrrell search hits week two, the NSW top cop reveals the amount of potential evidence to sift through.
Leesa Smith | November 22, 2021
William Tyrrell's biological mother lashed out at his foster parents saying the family should feel responsible for his disappearance in 2014.
Following soggy weather across NSW over the weekend, the second week of the search for William Tyrrell is underway - and now it's been revealed just how much potential evidence has been collected.
NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller told the ABCthat investigators will not stop searching the Batar Creek Rd site, in Kendall, on the mid-north NSW coast until they "believe the job is done".
The state's top cop revealed that officers found "foreign to normal bushlands" objects , along with 15 tonnes of soil, that had been sent back to Sydney for DNA testing, from the area near the home of William's grandmother where the toddler was last seen seven years ago.
"If you think about 15 tonnes of soil being moved into a clandestine lab, there could be weeks and weeks of searching through that before we have any answers," Commissioner Fuller admitted.

Piece of cloth found in William Tyrrell search
On Friday, at the end of a week-long search, a police investigator was spotted picking up a piece of cloth and putting it into an evidence bag.
Just before midday on Friday, a police spokesperson at the scene told news.com.au that the piece of light blue material, which was about 8x8cm in size, had been taken to Lidcombe, in western Sydney, for testing.
The cloth was found at bushland on Batar Creek Rd, about a kilometre from the toddler's grandmother's home where the three-year-old was last seen on September 12 in 2014.

Cops use replica of Spider-Man suit in Tyrrell search
This comes a day after police officers had been seen using a replica Spider-Man suit in the search for William Tyrrell, who was wearing the outfit on the day he disappeared more than seven years ago.
News.com.au reports that the reason for the sample of fabric is to draw a comparison to deteriorated pieces of material discovered at the search site on Wednesday afternoon.
Investigators have returned to the home where William was last seen and are focusing on a garage located on the Kendall property.
It is understood the concrete slab in the garage was installed around the time the three-year-old's disappeared on September 12, 2014.

William Tyrrell's biological mum and grandma speak
This comes as William Tyrrell's biological mum revealed her struggles since her toddler disappeared while at his foster grandmother's house.
"It's been years actually. Can you imagine what I've been through? I'm a mess, how do you think I'm doing?" she told The Daily Telegraph.
The distressed woman also claimed that she had been concerned about those people caring for William "from the start".
"He had bruises on (him) at a young age when I'd go to visit and they said it was because (he was) learning to walk,'' she alleged.
Meanwhile, William's biological grandmother has spoken out, saying that she is glad that the police are now looking into a suspect that she was suspicious of "from the beginning".
The woman, who cannot be named legally, relayed the heartbreaking moment that police called recently to let her know they were reopening the search for William.
"He (the detective) just rang me, (for the) first time in years," she said. "He said they're digging up the garden bed, he's probably going to be under there somewhere.
"Every day, for the last seven years, I haven't had a life. I don't know how (the suspects) are sleeping now, look at how they slept for seven years, their life was fine."

William Tyrrell's foster parents have been charged with child assault
His 56-year-old foster mum and 54-year-old foster dad are each facing one count of common assault after allegedly assaulting a child at a home on Sydney's upper north shore.
As part of ongoing investigations into the disappearance of William from his foster grandmother's home in Kendall in 2014, detectives received information relating to the suspected assault of a child in their care.
The couple are due to appear in court on Tuesday.
The charges come as William's foster mother has emerged as the person of interest in the toddler's mysterious disappearance.
The then-three-year-old vanished from his foster grandmother's property on the NSW Mid North Coast in 2014.
The only adults at the home at the time were William's foster mum and grandmother, who passed away earlier this year.
Acting on fresh leads, police launched new searches of the home in Kendall, and nearby bushland this week.
At the house where William was last seen, detectives dug up a garden bed and sprayed luminol to check for blood underneath a tall balcony as they investigate the theory that William suffered a fatal fall.

"There is one person we are looking closely at"
NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller said on Tuesday officers were focusing on one suspect.
"My understanding from the investigators is that there is certainly one person in particular that we are looking closely at," he told Nine on Tuesday.
"I'm confident that the team who has the investigation at the moment can solve it."
Multiple media outlets are reporting that police have confirmed the person of interest is William's foster mother.
Kidspot is not suggesting she is guilty of any crime, only that she is a police suspect.
Separately, police are expected to apply for an apprehended violence order against William's foster parents next week.

AFP join William Tyrrell search as foster grandma's car seized
As the search for William continued - members of the federal police's forensics unit were deployed to Kendall.
"There are specialists from the AFP forensics unit that have been deployed to Kendall and they will start a very targeted search of several key locations today," Home Affairs Minister Karen Andrews told 4BC.
"It is great news that the AFP are now part of the search… Hopefully, there is going to be a breakthrough, very, very soon."
The Minister remained tight-lipped when asked if the federal police were the key to the latest search.
"I can't go into detail of that - but I can tell you that the AFP has been engaged in security searches and providing advice in a very timely and appropriate manner," she said.
This latest update comes as a car has been seized by police in the search for William.
Forensic police took in the Mazda, which reportedly once belonged to the toddler's foster grandmother, from a property in Gymea in Sydney's south before transporting it to a secure facility for testing, The Daily Telegraph reported.
It's believed the car might have been used to transport William's body from his foster grandmother's house in Kendall before he was reported missing.

You get an immediate sense of New York Knicks Community Relations Coordinator Gianna Smith's passion for her work within seconds of listening to her talk about her day. That morning, Ms. Smith commuted into Manhattan from her home on Long Island hours earlier than she had to be at work to squeeze in a trip to Brooklyn to check in on the finishing touches being made on a Knicks-themed bedroom for a Make-A-Wish kid.
Working for community relations for the Knicks and Liberty, one of Ms. Smith's main focuses is working with the Garden of Dreams Foundation, a non-profit connected to The Madison Square Garden Company that positively impacts lives and helps make dreams come true for children facing obstacles.
"We utilize the Garden of Dreams and their charity partners to provide once-in-a-lifetime experiences for kids," she said. "Children have wished to meet Carmelo Anthony…play 1-on-1 with Tyson Chandler. We make it happen," said Ms. Smith, who works with members of the Knicks to assign players to events, whether it's through Garden of Dreams, or other partnerships, sponsorships, camps or clinics.
Ms. Smith also spearheads the Knicks' Community Awards and Scholarships Programs. Through the Sweetwater Clifton City Spirit Award, the Knicks honor local heroes who have made significant differences in the lives of others throughout the community. With this award, a donation is made to the recipient's charity of choice. Ms. Smith said 2012 was unique because of Hurricane Sandy. Throughout the month of November they honored individuals who saved lives, cleaned up, and developed initiatives during and after the hurricane.
High school students who have excelled on and off the court are honored by the Knicks through the Dave DeBusschere Award. Another program that celebrates and engages the youth population is the Knicks Poetry Slam, which encourages students' expression through the written and spoken word. This program awards four-year full time scholarships to high school students to participating colleges and universities. Ms. Smith was proud to report that her alma mater Adelphi was one of them.
For each of these recipients, Ms. Smith is integral to planning a pre-game experience and on court recognition during a Knicks game. Ms. Smith, who describes working for MSG and the Knicks as "a dream," loves being able to create such a special memory for others.
When asked what qualities are needed to succeed in a role like hers, Ms. Smith cited being able to work with children, communicate effectively, and prioritize and manage your time. "You have ten different events going at the same time, and are planning for them simultaneously." Ms. Smith, who was a communications major and business minor at Adelphi who played basketball and worked in two different offices on campus, credited the experience she had at the University for preparing her for what she does today.
Ms. Smith is proof that hard work does pay off. As a student-athlete at Adelphi, she appeared in all 115 games of her college career, made 98 starts, and earned all-conference and All-Met honors. Her junior year, she was the 17th player in Adelphi history to reach the 1,000 point milestone. Ms. Smith, who finished her career with 1559 points, is currently second on the Adelphi women's basketball career points list.

Jobless rate expected to leap to 7.3%
By Andrew Oxlade Updated: 04:07 EST, 17 June 2009
Official figures are today expected to confirm a further leap in unemployment.
Dole queue: Unemployment is expected to reach 3m.
The jobless rate is expected to have risen from 7.1% to 7.3% in May, taking the total to 2.25 million, as measured on the International Labour Organization method, which includes all those looking for jobs, not just those on benefits. The figure was 5.3% a year ago.
The data, released by the Office of National Statistics at 9.30am, is also likely to show a rise of around 65,000 in May for those claiming jobless benefit.
If correct, the rise will be significantly below the 136,600 record spike in February but higher than the 57,100 rise in April.
The figures will take the claimant count total to nearly 1.6 million or 4.9% - its highest level since October 1997.
Economists expect further rises in unemployment. 'Considerable uncertainties remain about the strength and sustainability of any recovery,' said Howard Archer of City forecaster IHS Global Insight. Indeed, even if the economy does manage to eke out some growth in the near term, it is unlikely to be strong enough for some considerable time to come to lead to a net creation of jobs. Consequently, the economy seems highly likely to shed jobs well into 2010.'
Archer expects unemployment to peak at around three million at the end of 2010, down from his previous forecast of 3.3 million.
Last month, David Blanchflower, who was the first member of the Bank of England Monetary Policy Committee to grasp the severity of the recession, forecast that unemployment would rise by at least a further million.
The labour market economist, who recently announced his intention to quit the MPC, said 100,000 people will lose their job each month 'at least until the end of the year'.
Analysts will also closely watch figures for average earnings, which are expected to have edged up 0.3% in April compared to a year ago despite widespread pay freezes. With bonuses stripped out, the annual rise is expected to be around 2.8%, down from 3% in April.
The ONS revealed yesterday that consumer price index inflation had fallen less than expected from 2.3% in April to 2.2% in May. That served as a reminder that inflation remains a threat and that the UK bank rate may need to rise sooner than some economists had anticipated. The news helped buoy sterling.

Salty or sweet? Raiders or Niners? Facebook or Twitter? In the Salesforce community, the debate about "clicks or code" is a hotly contested one. One of the best things about Salesforce is that there are many different approaches you can use to solve your business requirements. On the other hand, one of the most challenging things about Salesforce is that there are many different approaches you can use to to solve your business requirements.
What does "Clicks or Code" mean?
For the uninitiated, Salesforce provides many ways to configure their platform, which allows administrators to create apps, automation, and user interfaces without writing a single line of code i.e. using "clicks". In addition, Salesforce has also opened up their platform and allows developers to build completely custom user interfaces, logic, web services, and more i.e. "code". There is some overlap between these two approaches, which is the gray area of debate amongst those who build and maintain Salesforce solutions for a living.
When should I use clicks?
The short answer to this is "anytime you can". When designing and building any solution on Salesforce, the default stance should always be to use the point and click tools Salesforce provides if they can accomplish your requirement. These include things like page layouts, formula fields, roll up summary fields, validation rules, workflow rules, assignment rules, and the Salesforce1 mobile app (among many, many other features). The main advantages these features provide are in their speed to develop and their maintainability. They're easy to locate, update, remove, or build upon as requirements change and evolve. It doesn't take a computer science major to build very powerful applications. And one of the best parts – it's difficult to make a mess of things like in traditional software development.
Why would I ever write code?
What about the gray area?
The crux of the problem revolves around situations where a configuration-based solution might achieve the requirement but would not be as elegant or user-friendly as what could be achieved by writing some custom code. To illustrate this point, take the example of a time tracking system for a project management application. The application uses three Salesforce objects – Projects, Assignments, and Time Cards. The requirement is that each Time Card record be related to an Assignment record, which in turn is related to a Project record. Each week, a user must enter a Time Card record for every Assignment record assigned to them. Without going much deeper into the requirements, this is a slam dunk for using all "clicks". As long as you have the appropriate fields created on each object, all the user has to do is go to an Assignment record each week, navigate to the Time Cards related list, click the New button, and enter the data. Problem solved, right?
Well, let's expound on this a little further. Most users actually manage multiple Assignments across multiple Projects, and on average they need to enter 4-10 Time Cards per week. Sometimes they forget to enter their Time Cards, so it would be nice if they were reminded when they were past due. And if they enter more than their allotted budget of time, we need to alert the Project Manager. There still isn't anything in these requirements that can't be accomplished with configuration only, however, we're getting into an area where 1) the user experience would be sub-optimal, and 2) the configuration options we have will require what are commonly referred to as "work arounds", such as creating fields on objects for the sole purpose of making OOTB functionality work. The latter is not necessarily bad, but the user experience could be a deal breaker for adoption of your application, making all of your hard work that went into building it for naught.
Do I or anyone else on my team have the skills needed to build and maintain a custom solution using Visualforce and Apex?
How would building a solution with Visualforce and Apex affect the timeline and budget of my project?
What is the most important factor in the success of my project – timeline/budget, user adoption, maintainability?
Is the amount of code that I would need to write/have written (technical debt) worth the benefits I'll receive by accruing said technical debt?
Don't write code if you don't have the skills or capacity to maintain it.
Don't ever write code where OOTB functionality will suffice.
Don't underestimate the power of good (or bad) user experience.
Don't assume you'll make it better later if you know that you likely won't.
Do exhaust all configuration options, even work arounds, before you consider writing code.
While this is not meant to be an entirely comprehensive list of all possible considerations, hopefully it will help you better weigh your options when faced with the "clicks or code" dilemma. It's important to remember that just because you can write code doesn't always mean you should, while also considering the users of your application and the long term implications of your solution designs.
Do you have other ways that you evaluate how you build solutions with Salesforce? Do you agree or disagree with the approach that I've proposed in this post? Leave your comments so that the Salesforce community can learn from your experience.

Week 4's top five games
By Beth Long Sep 14, 2016, 10:58am CDT
Share All sharing options for: Week 4's top five games
No. 2 Homewood-Flossmoor (3-0) at Lockport (3-0), Friday, 7:30 p.m.
Two undefeated teams go head-to-head in another big game for the Vikings, who moved up to the No. 2 spot in the Super 25 after a huge win over No. 7 Lincoln-Way East in Week 3. H-F was led by quarterback Bryant Wright, who threw three touchdown passes to Northern Illinois commit Tyrice Ritchie. Lockport is off to a 3-0 start for the first time since 2009. The Porters after knocked off Southwest Suburban Conference foe Lincoln-Way Central 16-14 last week.
Montini (1-2) at No. 5 Brother Rice (3-0), Friday, 7:30 p.m.
It's now or never for Montini, the defending Class 6A state champions. Although the Broncos opened with one of the toughest schedules in the area, they are in need of a string of wins. Brother Rice is home to one of the most talented prospects in the area, Illinois recruit and senior wide receiver Ricky Smalling. The 6-2, 195 pound athlete isn't the only impact player on the team, running back Xavian Valladay had five touchdowns in the Week 2 victory against Crete-Monee. For Montini, big players have been senior running backs Will Smith and Western Michigan recruit Prince Walker. Walker has been battling injury to open the season, and only played in part of Montini's loss to Fenwick last week.
No. 7 Lincoln-Way East (2-1) at No. 10 Bolingbrook (2-1), Friday, 7:30 p.m.
A matchup of two top ten teams. Lincoln-Way East lost 35-30 to No. 2 Homewood-Flossmoor last week. Bolingbrook has been building momentum since a Week 1 loss to No. 4 Glenbard West. Southwest Suburban Conference play is officially underway, and Bolingbrook has shown that offense can be an explosive part of its season. Raiders quarterback Anthony Vespo passed for 170 yards and three touchdowns in a 55-7 victory over Stagg in Week 3.
No. 19 Palatine (3-0) at New Trier (2-1), Friday, 7:30 p.m.
New Trier, which just barely dropped out of the Super 25, is still a force to be reckoned with. The Trevians take on undefeated Palatine, which is averaging 37 points while only allowing 13. Pirates quarterback Zach Oles is dangerous running or passing. Trevians quarterback Clay Czyzynski has had a solid start to the season, and showed he was a standout athlete in last week's 45-28 loss to Fremd.
Naperville North (3-0) at Lake Park (2-1), Friday, 7:30 p.m.
After back-to-back losing seasons, Naperville North is a new-look team. At 3-0 the Huskies have already surpassed their win total from 2015. In Week 3 they took down Wheaton North in a convincing 33-7 win. Running back Eric Wright, who racked up 120 yards and two touchdowns, was instrumental in the win. The Lancers only loss this season came at the hands of No. 13 Waubonsie Valley in Week 1, and they have talent on the roster with Michigan State recruit Jacub Panasuik. Lake Park defeated DeKalb 28-22 last week.

Arizona city officials want troop-installed razor wire removed from border wall
By: The Associated Press February 6
In this Feb. 2, 2019, photo, U.S. Army troops place additional concertina wire to the border fence on a hillside above Nelson Street in downtown Nogales, Ariz. Nogales, Mexico is seen at right. The small Arizona border city is fighting back against the installation of razor fencing that now covers the entirety of a tall border fence along the city's downtown area. The city of Nogales, which sits on the border with Nogales, Mexico, is contemplating a proclamation Wednesday, Feb. 6, 2019, condemning the use of concertina wire in its town. (Jonathan Clark/Nogales International via AP)
NOGALES, Ariz. — Officials in a small Arizona border city passed a resolution Wednesday night condemning the installation of new razor wire that now covers the entirety of a tall border wall through downtown.
The City Council in Nogales, which sits on the border with Nogales, Mexico, wants the federal government to remove all concertina wire installed within the city limits.
Otherwise, Nogales Mayor Arturo Garino said the city will sue.
Razor wire is most visible result of $210M troop deployment to the US-Mexico border
The towering metal fence that divides the United States and Mexico at the edge of the Pacific Ocean has an imposing new feature: row upon row of razor wire.
By: Susan Montoya Bryan, The Associated Press
City officials say Army troops installed more horizontal layers of the wire along the border wall last weekend.
The council's resolution says the razor wire would harm or kill anyone who scales the wall and "is only found in a war, prison or battle setting" and should not be in downtown Nogales.
The council's action came one day after President Donald Trump made his case to the American people about the need for a border wall and how he has ordered 3,750 troops to prepare for what he called a "tremendous onslaught."
Soldiers have installed concertina wire at or near several official crossings at the border. In late November, U.S. Customs and Border Protection said the military had sent 36 miles (58 kilometers) of concertina for use in California, Arizona, and Texas.
At the start of November, soldiers in Texas installed lines of wire coils below a major bridge near McAllen.
Photos published by the Nogales International newspaper show six rows of concertina wire stacked along the approximately two-story wall.

U.S. The city council in Nogales, which sits on the border with Nogales, Mexico, is set to consider a proclamation Wednesday night condemning the use of concertina wire. It follows reports that U.S. military troops installed more horizontal layers of the wire along the downtown border fence over the weekend. (Tim Steller/Arizona Daily Star via AP)
Nogales, a city of about 20,000 people, is a fraction of the size of its Mexican counterpart, but its economy is largely reliant on Mexican shoppers and cross-border trade. Illegal crossings in that area have dropped steeply in the past several years.
Garino told the newspaper that he asked U.S. Sen. Martha McSally to help the city have the wire removed during a visit to the border last month.
A spokeswoman for McSally said the senator was working on a response to an inquiry from The Associated Press.
Garino said authorities didn't tell him why more wire was installed.
He said he was most concerned that children and others could be injured now that it reaches the ground. The downtown area is also residential, and there are homes that stand a few feet from the border fence.
"Aesthetically pleasing — it's not. It's very bad. It's not good for business, it's not good for what we're trying to create, a business-friendly community here in Nogales," Garino told the AP.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection and the Department of Defense did not respond to inquiries about why additional wire was installed last weekend.
City leaders were critical of military exercises at the border during the holiday season, saying they believed it scared shoppers.
The resolution the city council is scheduled to vote on says concertina wire is typically something found in battlefields, and that placing it along the border fence is "not only irresponsible but inhuman."
In a tweet, U.S. Rep. Raul Grijalva, a Democrat, called its placement a stunt by the Trump administration, which he said is "trying to create the perception of rampant lawlessness and crime."
New Mexico governor pulls National Guard troops from border
The governor of New Mexico ordered the withdrawal of the majority of the state's National Guard troops from the U.S. border with Mexico on Tuesday, in a move that challenges President Trump's description of a security crisis.
The Nogales measure would be one of the more direct swipes against one of Trump's signature initiatives. In September 2017, the San Diego City Council adopted a resolution that said Trump's walls would be "damaging symbols of fear and division that will increase tensions with Mexico, one of the United States' largest trading partners and a neighbor with which communities such as San Diego in the border region are inextricably linked culturally, physically, and economically."
It said Trump's proposal "could destroy the vitality of U.S.- Mexico relations and act as a separation to our unique, diverse, and beautiful region."
The San Diego resolution passed 5-3, with Democrats in favor and Republicans opposed. Kevin Faulconer, the city's Republican mayor didn't back the statement but didn't veto it either. The mayor often says the U.S. should focus on building bridges instead of walls.
Other border mayors have also been critical.
"We have a fence here. The fence is fine. It does what it's supposed to do," Dee Margo, the Republican mayor of El Paso, Texas, said last year. "I hear the term wall, I think of the Berlin Wall. I think it's pretty detrimental to the relationships that have lasted more than 400 years."
Border Patrol union head calls National Guard deployment 'a colossal waste of time'
The head of the Border Patrol union has called the deployment of National Guard soldiers to the border a waste of time, saying the soldiers are duplicating, not adding to, agents' efforts.
By: Todd South
The number of arrests by the Border Patrol is the lowest since the early 1970s, while the number of agents has more than doubled.
Over 1.6 million arrests were made by just about 9,200 agents nationwide in the 2000. But those figures tapered off as the government dramatically increased staffing and resources like more surveillance technology and tall, steel fencing.
By last fiscal year, about 19,000 Border Patrol agents made 310,000 arrests.

Drag Queens: Feminine Appreciation Or Female 'Minstrel Shows'?
Written by K. Walker on November 1, 2018
Why the selective outrage? How is one thing acceptable (and even celebrated) while the other is not?
Let me preface this with the statement that I tilt a little more libertarian, and believe that informed adults should be able to dress and perform however they like. It should also be said that just because you can do something, it doesn't mean that you should do it. In wearing whatever costume you want to and creating a character that you like, there should be some consideration for civility and tact, which sadly, seem to be lacking in our current culture. For instance, at no time, (other than for historical education or entertainment purposes,) is it ever acceptable to don the garb of the Third Reich. But that's not what we're talking about here. We're talking about men lampooning the traits of women for fun and profit.
It should also be said that just because one person has no trouble with it, it doesn't mean that someone else can't find it offensive, nor should they be forced to keep their opinions to themselves. You do you, boo, and I'll do me — and the 'me' of which I speak is highly opinionated.
I've been thinking a lot about 'cultural appropriation' in the wake of the firing of Megyn Kelly from NBC's daytime talk show, Megyn Kelly Today, for her alleged 'racist' attitude in not condemning perceived blackface. (FYI: That's not what she said, and it's just an excuse to get rid of her due to poor ratings.) Despite her emotional apology, the beatdown she received from her guests, and her acquiescence to the position of the offense mongers, she was still axed.
Kelly didn't understand what the problem was in dressing up as someone of a different race for Halloween and referenced a costume worn by reality TV star Luann De Lesseps. On the season opener of Bravo's The Real Housewives of New York City earlier this year, De Lesseps donned an oversized afro and allegedly darkened her skin for a 2017 Halloween costume paying homage to Diana Ross. De Lesseps denies that she attempted to darken her skin, claiming that she was using the bronzer that she normally wears, and she apologized to anyone who was offended by her costume.
First, it's been a freaking year since she wore the costume, and 6 months since she apologized to those that were offended by it. It shouldn't spark controversy again.
Second, it's ridiculous to say that wearing a costume out of respect for an individual is limited to the same ethnic group. Does that mean that non-white children are not permitted to dress as a white superhero or princess? Or that non-black children are forbidden from dressing up as Black Panther, or non-Pacific Islanders aren't allowed to be Moana? That's ridiculous! This is obviously quite different from what Elizabeth Warren has been guilty of for decades.
Third, I don't see the alleged skin darkening as any more offensive than the massive 'fro that De Lesseps wore, which frankly, looks more like she's giving deference to Drag Queens than to Diana Ross.
Which brings me to my point.
If blackface and minstrel shows are offensive (which they no doubt are) and condemnation is being extended to perceived incidents of blackface, then why is drag suddenly becoming mainstream? Isn't it equally offensive?
As a woman, I think it is.
Blackface was used by white actors who put on black greasepaint to exaggerate and mock of physical features of blacks. Stereotypes were used in incredibly unflattering and blatantly racist ways.
How is this different from drag?
The Problem With Drag
Drag queens are (primarily gay) men who put on ostentatious makeup and wigs and don dresses to caricature femininity. They create characters that are stereotypes of women: bitchy, slutty, catty, dumb, etc. It is, (for lack of a better phrase) the appropriation of the female gender. Gay men are literally putting on stereotypes of women as a costume for profit, and that's apparently just fine.
(Yes, there are some female drag performers that are 'drag kings' but their male performances aren't as mainstream and they don't enjoy the same success as their opposite gender counterparts.)
Just check out the popularity of RuPaul's Drag Race which has been on television for 10 seasons. In researching this topic, I watched a couple of episodes of the show, which was incredibly eye-opening. The lingo used is decidedly feminine and hypersexualized — 'Girlfriend', 'Bitches', 'Girls', are all used to refer to the male drag performers. Beefy male assistants called the 'Pit Crew' walk around in just their briefs. The challenges themselves often have vulgar references to women, such as the parody of the Match Game where contestants do their best comedic impersonation, often of a woman, and attempt to stay in character.
There are several different styles of drag, one of which is called 'Fish' which attempts to look as much like an actual woman as possible. However, the vast majority of drag involves the flamboyant caricature of traits associated with women. From high cheekbones achieved through makeup contouring to the 'sashaying' of exaggerated hips when walking to 'Diva' attitudes and hypersexualization — all are lampooned by drag queens.
Some have said that drag performers cannot be appropriating anything from women because of the feminist theory of 'intersectionality.' The power rests with straight women and not with that the gay men performing in drag. It's a hierarchy of oppression, and the women are ahead of the men this time. Since there is no power imbalance, that means it's all just fine and dandy and not offensive in the slightest.
Elizabeth Levengood wrote a piece on Medium that dismisses the premise that drag is harmful to women or the equivalent of blackface because, as Judith Butler argues, 'traditional gender roles are exhaustingly heteronormative' so we should just all accept that femininity and masculinity are social constructs and we are all 'performing' our sexuality just as drag queens are. Besides, the media likes to push the idea that women are bitchy, sassy, slutty, catty, dumb, hypersexualized, etc. so it's not really a problem when drag queens impersonate that because it's actually society's fault.
Levengood cites the origin of drag as the late 19th century when it evolved from the practice of cross-dressing male actors in theatre to an exploration of sexual identity due to the repression of gay identity, but that's only partially true.
The Historical Connection To Blackface
Drag also has a very dark side; it was used in actual minstrel plays in Vaudeville and on Broadway. That's where we got the stereotypical 'black' characters like the overweight, 'Mammie' who doesn't take any backtalk and is filled with earthy wisdom, despite her inability to articulate her sentences properly.
If you look at the exaggerated makeup used in drag, it seems to borrow rather heavily from blackface.
The structure of the drag performances themselves pays tribute to the racist shows of the late nineteenth century. The historical minstrel shows incorporated song and dance, and some clever banter, and a slapstick skit. As drag became popular in the early 20th century, the 'drag balls' in New York included a drag fashion show with a runway walk, but shows now include lip syncing, dancing, humor, and 'Voguing', a seemingly integral part of drag culture that was made mainstream by Madonna in the 1990s. (Incidentally, some critics say that Madonna appropriated Voguing from the marginalized drag subculture to add it to her own branding in order to profit from it. In other words, Madonna is guilty of 'appropriation' from the drag world that is inspired by female appearance and behavior.)
Occasionally, the two worlds of blackface and drag collide as they did in 2013 when a white Drag Queen named Daytona B*tch was fired from Toronto Pride after dressing up as the late-90s telephone psychic, Miss Cleo, who happened to be black. It was 'blackface' and a 'minstrel show' to the organizers, but B*tch says that it was supposed to be a comedic character to fit with the theme of the Drag competition which was, 'Caribbean Heat.'
So, if these men dressing as women and caricaturing them isn't a problem, because it's just creating a character for fun, why is it suddenly a problem when one dresses as a woman of a different race?
Isn't that just another character?
Drag And 'Cultural Appropriation'
There are many criticisms online that drag has a real problem with 'cultural appropriation.' The nature of the 'performance' requires that both the clothing and the makeup match the look. A woman of any race could wear an Indian saree, a Japanese kimono, or a Native American headdress and be called out by the offense-mongers as guilty of 'cultural appropriation' even if it is worn in a respectful way giving deference to the culture. But drag queens must appear to be part of that culture which requires the cringeworthy alteration of skin color by use of makeup and slanted eyes to mimic Asian appearance. At least, that's what happened on RuPaul's Drag Race when several contestants wore kimonos during a runway competition.
Don't think that the drag community is fine with cultural appropriation, though. Only some forms of appropriation seem to be acceptable — racial and gender are totes kewl. However, that second one has some caveats.
There has been a new trend of women choosing to dress in drag as women, which is being termed 'Extreme Femininity.' The drag community calls this a form of 'cultural appropriation.'
So women can't dress up as caricatures of women, only men can do that.
The Normalization of Drag
RuPaul Charles, arguably the most mainstream Drag Queen of all time, has said that drag is only for male performers and that women will be barred from his television competition show, RuPaul's Drag Race. He also said the same about transgender women but has since walked it back after significant online backlash.
You'd think that some feminists out there would be outraged by a man marginalizing women like that.
Due to RuPaul's success, the sloughing off of gender norms, and the prevalence of Queer Theory on university campuses which is seeping into mainstream culture, drag doesn't seem to be going anywhere. It's becoming more and more mainstream. Increasingly, our slang is being pulled from drag culture.
Normalizing drag is the new push.
ClashDaily has reported on 'Drag Queen Storytime' at libraries to introduce kids to the concept of Drag Queens.
The push to normalize the gender-bending with children is ramping up in the 'new' elementary school health curricula that include gender identity and gender expression.
And it's working.
'Kinder' Drag
There is now a phenomenon called 'Kinder Drag' where young children dress up and perform as child drag queens. (RuPaul doesn't seem to take issue with this, incidentally, and called one drag kid the 'future of America.' Well, I guess he might have a problem with it if the child was female.)
And the appropriation, both ethnic and gender-based, continues.
The lampooning is so embedded in drag culture that Nemis Melancon, a boy who decided to start dressing in drag when he was 7 years old, created the character "Lactatai', a self-proclaimed 'Diva' who seems to have appropriated black culture in speech patterns and mannerisms.
Incidentally, it's unclear why Nemis chose the name Lactatia, but its etymology is interesting. It is a derivative of the Latin word, 'lactis' meaning 'milk', and 'tatia' a variant of the Russian name, 'Tatiana', which means 'fairy queen'. So, essentially his character is a white, fairy queen. He also calls his fans 'Lactators' which is an obvious reference to breastfeeding women.
Those are quite cerebral connections for a 9-year-old boy to make all on his own.
Watch 'Lactatia' at RuPaul's DragCon ask people if they are 'Lactators':
Nemis has done some lip syncing as part of his performance, taken 'Voguing' classes, and has even won a drag competition.
Another member of this 'kinder-fabulous' club is Desmond Is Amazing who has over 98,000 followers on Instagram. Desmond isn't just a drag kid, but an 11-year old LGBTQ+ activist who claims that he came out of the closet when he was 3 years old.
How a preschooler can understand the concept of sexual orientation and then clearly identify where he fits in before hitting puberty is beyond my comprehension.
Who could have seen that coming after reading his bio (written by his mother) on his website stating that he was born during NYC Pride Week in 2007?
It's just such a coincidence that his parents were proud LGBTQ+ activists!
Both kids speak as if from a script. They both say that RuPaul's Drag Race was integral in their decision to become drag performers and that they see drag as 'art' and are appreciative that their parents allow them to 'be who they are.'
Interestingly, both sets of parents were allowing their very young children to watch RuPaul's Drag Race which is filled with foul language and gay sex innuendo. RuPaul tells contestants, 'Good luck and don't f*ck it up' which has been deemed appropriate language for a 3-year old according to these model parents. They also seem fine with the overt sexualization of their pre-pubescent children, and the instant fame (and the associated cash flow) that they have garnered from progressives and the LGBTQ+ community — so there's that.
Are these children learning behavior that will later be deemed to be 'problematic' by leftists?
Well, we'll have to see if leftists care more about actual, overt bigotry or defending the absolute fringiest of the fringe of the LGBTQ+ community.
You might say, 'Come on! It's all just clowning around and having fun!'
Advocates tell us that calling people in drag 'clowns' is denying a part of their identity and an 'important part of their sexual identity.' It's also not the same as transgenderism. There's an uneasy tension in the LGBTQ+ community between drag performers and transgender individuals.
'Dragsplaining' Femininity
RuPaul, hot on the heels of the success of Drag Race, has begun a new show called RuPaul's Drag U where drag queens teach women who are tomboys about femininity.
Because who can teach a woman about being a woman better than a gay man exaggerating what a woman actually is, right? But, hey, it's all fine because they're 'fierce' and teaching these women to find their inner diva. It's not like they're 'mansplaining' what a woman is or anything.
Being a woman is apparently all about attitude.
I would have never known that being born female.
I'm so glad that these gay men are able to teach us what femininity really is — clownish makeup with a 'fierce' pout, one-dimensional characters, and the blatant commercialism exhibited by the adoration of fabulous designer clothes that are to be worn with expensive stiletto heels.
Here I was aspiring to the definition of a virtuous woman as described in Proverbs 31.
Wow, I'm so relieved that I don't have to live up to that example anymore now that gay men have 'dragsplained' what a woman should be.
Or maybe, just maybe — they're actually mocking women, even if it is unintentional.

'Sharp rise' in fake texts and phishing emails claiming to be from TSB, Action Fraud says
The number of reports has risen by hundreds since April
Jillian MacMathTrending and Advance Content Writer
There's been a "sharp rise" in the number of fraudsters sending out fake texts and phishing emails claiming to be from TSB, Action Fraud has said.
Since the start of May, there have been 321 phishing reports made to the group, a significant increase on April when only 30 reports were made.
In the same period, there have been 51 reports of cybercrime to Action Fraud which mention TSB - an increase from 24 reports in the previous month.

The group says fraudsters are using TSB's system issue to target people and con victims out of money.
Using specialist software, the fraudsters' send ID on text messages appears to be TSB.
In some instances, the fraudulent text is being added to existing TSB message threads on the victim's phone.
This hidden camera on cash machines could cost you thousands – can you spot it?
Director of Action Fraud, Pauline Smith, said: "This can have a devastating effect on people, who can lose out on large sums of money.
"Don't assume anyone who's sent you a text message is who they say they are. If a text message asks you to make a payment, log in to an online account or offers you a deal, be cautious and report it to Action Fraud."
Banks, including TSB, will never ask for a PIN, password or full memorable information by email or text.

A spokesperson for TSB said: "While our systems are safe and secure, unfortunately fraudsters are increasingly sophisticated and looking to take advantage of situations like these by approaching customers.
"Protecting our customers' information is our number one priority. We are doing all we can to ensure customers don't become a victim of fraud, whether they bank with us in branch, online or via the telephone and this is something we are working on with Action Fraud and a number of external organisations.
"We are also working with these organisations to help them identify fraudulent sites so we can take them down as quickly as possible."

The timeshare industry year is very much governed by the seasons as to what events are on that time of the year, thus April is ARDA, September is RDO and of course March is TATOC – bit like farmers and their seasons . So the first week-end of March and we all foregathered at Warrington in Cheshire, first for the RDO/TATOC Seminar, followed on by the TATOC Conference itself.
Impressions of the seminar? I think we learnt from last year, which was the first one, and we tried this year to make it more relevant for the committees of the owner-run resorts attending. Did we succeed? I think there is more we can do still and we have learnt lessons from this year. But the high spots of what is in effect a half-day event were firstly, the problem resort session where delegates gave their views on how to solve the problems of an ailing fictitious resort and compare their solutions with those offered by the panel of resort committee chairmen. Secondly, Jackie Murphy's presentation to the seminar of her proposal that RDO commence a new PR Campaign "#timetoshare" which would embrace both the owner-run resorts and the developers through digital media activity designed to promote the positive experience of timeshare and its relevance to the modern family. This was very well received by delegates – there being a general feeling at the seminar that more needed to be done by the industry to promote the positive aspects of timeshare.
looking for a way to make some easy money from vulnerable consumers and I personally came away from the event – both heartened and dare I say it, re-invigorated by the sessions. The bar for next year's event has no doubt been raised further. I know Harry Taylor will be featured in next month's RDO Insider so will leave it to him to talk about the TATOC Conference itself.
Another March event – the Tourism Alliance annual Parliamentary Reception at the House of Commons – a very well attended event this year, and although to be cynical, we are in an Election year and therefore it's in the interest of many MPs to be seen at such events, the high turnout of politicians including the Secretary of State, is a great compliment to the Alliance and the way it has pushed tourism up the political agenda in the UK.

Q: Login via API (outside app) and create a cookie for access Ok so I think I've settled on choosing BLAZOR for my upcoming project. But first I need to do something that is seemingly very basic.
For context, Blazor Server side will be how I interface with my SQL Server dB, I want "individual accounts" mode to be the way users authenticate.  I'm using net 6.0,almost all tutorials out there seem to be net 5 since they all still have startup.cs files.  Ok, but I also am creating a parallel app that is NOT a website, but I want it to grab data from the same database via routes after authenticating.
For example, website.com/api/data?variablestograb as a GET would send me some json data.
OK that being said, how do I login programmatically from an outside app? If you must know, the outside app is part of Unity C#. But that doesn't matter so much, what itll do is use a post call to login in via the api routes. Something like
Website.com/api/login?un=blah&pw=haha
This will generate a cookie and I can grab it with the session data and I'll use this with every get call hence.
Just using the basic templates, Blazor server net 6.0 with individual auth, how do I set up such a route? Looking at the files, I'm at a complete loss on how the login pages are actually passing data around.
Thanks!
Update: the specific ask is exactly how do I modify the Blazor Server Net 6 Individual Accounts template to allow me to authenticate a user via an external access api? My thought would be to reference the route above for /login/ but that might not even be the best practice. But even if it is, how exactly and where would I update the template to make this happen?
(I have a feeling it's pretty basic to do, but I've been reading tutorials for weeks now and they're all just talking about internal authentication and verification within each Blazor component. I basically want an external program to also be able to "drive the car" remotely, but first it must authenticate.)

A: If you're building an API for this from scratch, then it seems like you have the right idea, no matter what happens, you're going to send the cookie to be website every request or at least a session id which contains all the information provided. From a database perspective maybe create a session table which then contains all the info you want and also can be easily found. That's a way for you to create a cookie for client server communication, however this is from my limited knowledge and may not be the best way.
I'd recommend hiding information like keys in the header to prevent exposure, looking at other APIs like the Spotify API you can see they set the authorisation bearer.
Exposing all the information for the credentials in the URL for what could be sensitive database behaviour may not be the best. You can hide the information in the header for every request you make.
Maybe have a default controller that obtains the user information before handling any specific requests and making it accessible to your other methods/requests?

A: The basic process for any external authentication is:

*

*Redirect to the external log in page.

*External Provider does it business.

*External provider posts to a page on your site with the authentication information included - normally security info in the header or a cookie.

*The Blazor app reads the authentication information with the AuthenticationStateProvider.

Normally you just need to write a customer AuthenticationStateProvider and code to redirect if the user is not authorized.  This may be a manual button in the top bar, a you aren't logged in page with a button to log in, or an automatic redirect to the provider.  The return for the provider is either your landing page or some other page to tell them they logged in successfully.
The custom AuthenticationStateProvider replaces the standard one in DI services and provides the security information to the Authorization components.
Search for "blazor custom authentication provider" will get you lots of good resources.
