Northeast Iceland has many excellent and popular salmon rivers which are fresh and free of pollution. The salmon fill these rivers in spring and thrive there at optimal conditions. The ratio of big salmon is higher in Þingeyjarsýsla region than elsewhere in Iceland. Laxá river in Aðaldalur valley is undoubtedly the best known river in Northeast Iceland. Among others are Fnjóská and Skjálfandafljót in the Þingeyjarsveit district and the rivers in Þistilfjörður.
In many places scattered across the region are innumerable lakes and pools holding promise of fresh arctic charr or brown trout. There are few better pastimes than to enjoy the outdoors in this beautiful, radiant, northern environment, make a few casts and renew your energy, optimism and joie de vivre. To find out about permits for fishing you can enquire at information centres or at the nearest farm if you happen upon a tempting lake or river.
For those who prefer sea fishing, the deep blue ocean awaits. There are sea angling trips on offer in various places and some people enjoy throwing a few casts right from the shore.

Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2021 Week 13 Hansard (Tuesday, 30 November 2021) . . Page.. 3856 ..
MR BARR: Thank you for the question. Nuclear related? I think it would depend on how it is defined. In the context of weapons, no. Perhaps in the context of medical research and the like, I think that might be a different story.
Mr Hanson: Do you support the acquisition of the submarines?
MR BARR: I do not think there is much need for a submarine fleet. There is not much need for a submarine fleet in Lake Burley Griffin, Mr Hanson.
MADAM SPEAKER: Resume your seat, Mr Barr. There is a point of order.
Mr Davis: Madam Speaker, the Chief Minister only has two minutes to answer Ms Clay's question. If Mr Hanson wants to take up an interjection in his own question—
MADAM SPEAKER: Yes. I remind members not to interject and perhaps members not to respond to interjections.
MR BARR: Madam Speaker, I feel that I can absolutely and categorically rule out any nuclear submarines operating within any of Canberra's lakes.
Mr Hanson: Are you sure?
MR BARR: Yes; thank you, Mr Hanson.
In relation to the question, I would need from the member a better—perhaps tighter—definition of what "nuclear related" means. Clearly, there would be some elements within that industry sector that would not be related to either energy or weapons that may in fact be, indeed, a highly suitable area for investment.
University of Canberra—commercial development
MS LAWDER: My question is to the Chief Minister: the Riotact reported on 23 November about the sale of land by UC for $69 million. This land will be redeveloped and include up to 2,600 residential dwellings. The article notes that the deal is subject to your government granting a Crown lease. Chief Minister, will your government grant that Crown lease?
MR BARR: I think that would be asking for a government policy announcement. Clearly, we have passed enabling legislation to enable this to happen. So, subject to the appropriate planning oversight, it would seem illogical for this parliament to have established such a framework and put in place that the clear government policy to support the diversification of land uses and activities on the university campus—so it would seem logical, without pre-empting a final decision, that that would be the direction we would be heading in.
MS LAWDER: Chief Minister, have you or anyone in your office met with any individuals other than direct staff of the University of Canberra regarding this land sale and, if so, who?

OLYMPIA — A shift in winds Monday is helping firefighters at a couple of wildfires in southwest Washington.
Department of Natural Resources spokeswoman Karen Ripley says they grew Sunday under dry easterly winds. But winds have shifted to an onshore flow, bringing cooler, more-humid air.
About 100 firefighters with helicopters are trying to control a fire that has burned about 100 acres near the eastern end of Riffe Lake in Lewis County. It's burning debris in a recently logged area.
Another fire has burned about 60 acres of logging debris in the Capitol Forest near Littlerock in Thurston County. Ripley says about 100 firefighters are trying to contain the fire on steep terrain with help from helicopters.
She also says firefighters are mopping up smaller fires near Tenino and La Center.

Futebol Nation?
Brazil has the reputation of being the most football-mad nation on earth. Is it?
By James Young
"When he invented the bicycle kick, Leônidas da Silva invented modern Brazil in the same way as Villa-Lobos defined Brazil when he gave shape to modern Brazilian music. And just as the country was reinvented when Nelson Rodrigues brought the social reality of the streets onto the stage. Or when Gilberto Freyre and Sérgio Buarque de Holanda explained our roots, or Guimarães Rosa revealed us through prose, and Drummond through verse. Or when Mario de Andrade pioneered our popular culture. In full anthropophagic fury, our national heroes — players such as Friedenreich, Domingos da Guia, and Pelé — transformed a sport that was British, aristocratic and white into a passion that was Brazilian, popular and mestiça."
José Roberto Marinho, Folha de São Paulo, 2008
Brazilian football reflects Brazilian society and Brazilian society reflects Brazilian football. Just as slavery was finally abolished in the country following the Lei Áurea ("Golden Law") in 1888 and Brazil took its first decisive steps on the road to becoming a modern, free society, so a decade or three later black footballers began to establish themselves on the football fields that had previously been the exclusive redoubt of the white establishment.
Much later the descendants of slaves found themselves living in another type of penury, in favelas and the periferia (the sprawling, scruffy outer suburbs of Brazilian cities), which in their social exclusion are not far from being modern day urban equivalents of the quilombos, the old communities of escaped slaves. The only way out for many was and is to play samba or football.
Flavio Caça-Rato ('Flavio the Rat Hunter') is a striker for Santa Cruz, the time do povo ("team of 'the people' or 'the masses'") in Recife in the north-eastern state of Pernambuco. Recife is one of the poorest, most violent and most thrilling of Brazilian cities. When Flavio was a kid he used to spend his free time in the rough neighbourhood of Campina de Barreto in the north of the city shooting rats with his catapult. Also as a child Flavio was attacked by his alcoholic father, who wound a bed sheet around his neck and hung him from a rafter. Only the arrival of his uncle saved him that day. Later, when he was older, Flavio was shot twice for messing with the girlfriend of a traficante ('drug gangster'). He survived and went on to score the goal last December that took Santa out of Serie C and into Serie B. There were 60,000 standing on the mouldy concrete terraces of Arruda, Santa's stadium, to see it.
The journalist Xico Sá wrote an essay inspired by Flavio's life and by a photograph of a small boy swimming in the trash-infested canal outside Arruda, searching for recyclable cans, which caused revolt across Brazil. The piece, which was published in the Folha de São Paulo newspaper, was entitled "In Caça-Rato Country."
"In Caça-Rato country some, like Flavio, escape, thanks to football, funk or rap... but most are lost along the way, little Rat Hunters doomed to a life amidst the human refuse, or worse, ended by the bullets (nothing stray about them) of the police — almost always dead by the time they are 30."
This is the reality of Brazilian life for many. For Brazil is a country with not so much social divisions as social chasms. In every city, idyllic gated communities and glistening apartment buildings nestle cheek by jowl with ramshackle, crime-infested favelas. As bad or worse than the favelas are the periferias. Their distance from downtown or the middle class or business areas makes it easier for the authorities to forget about such neighbourhoods, which, lacking the edgy glamour and media spotlight of the favelas, become impoverished, neglected badlands.
It has always been thus, perhaps. At least it was in 1933 when Gilberto Freyre wrote his masterpiece of Brazilian anthropology, A Casa Grande e A Senzala (meaning "The Big House and the Slave Quarters", but translated in its English version into "The Masters and the Slaves"). Freyre dissected Brazilian society, which was based in his eyes on the fruit of sexual relations between masters and their slaves. In doing so he revealed, much to the horror of his wealthy white readers from Brazil's social elite, that they were neither so white nor so elite as they believed — "every Brazilian, no matter how blond his hair, carries in his body and soul a hint of the indigenous people or black Brazilians. In our gentleness, our excessive gesturing, our music, our gait, our way of speaking..."
"To Brazilians in the 1930s the image Freyre held up of their own society was quite startling. The Brazilians who shaped Brazilian institutions — the white Brazilians — had always lacked confidence in their racially bastard society. The blacks and the bastards were so many and the honourable white fidalgos so few," wrote Peter Robb in his wonderful study of Brazilian culture and society, A Death in Brazil.
And yet in portraying Brazil as a happy, sensual melting pot ("in Freyre's intricately documented study, every matter of life on the sugar plantations led subtly back to sex," wrote Robb), A Casa Grande e A Senzala was criticised by some for being as saccharine sweet as the fields of sugar cane in the nordeste from which it sprung.
The book also revealed the great tragedy of Brazilian society, then and now. If Brazil truly was this great paean to miscegenation, the pot in which black African and white European and the indigenous peoples mixed and melted, their family trees and roots intertwined, then how could some Brazilians be so fabulously wealthy and many, many more so desperately poor?
It's the same today. From the gated communities of Barra de Tijuca in Rio de Janeiro to the beachside apartment complexes of Boa Viagem in Recife, Brazil's haves are comparatively small in number but rich in money and in visibility — despite recent concessions to the country's burgeoning classe C, the country's TV fodder of choice, its novelas or soap operas, concentrate almost exclusively on the wealthy of Rio or São Paulo. The country's have-nots, meanwhile, are vast in number but small in power and often almost invisible, at least in the media.
And it's the same story in Brazilian football, where the disparity between the domestic game and the Seleção is as wide as the Rio São Francisco. As wide, in fact, as the social gulf between the periferia and the luxurious homes of Brazil's upper social classes, or even between the Casa Grande and the Senzala itself.
Never will the gulf be clearer than this June and July, when the superstars of the national team, only three or four of whom play for Brazilian clubs, take the field in gleaming new World Cup stadiums, cheered on by happy, generally middle-class crowds bedecked in yellow and green, amid a sea of patriotic fervour and blanket Mundial-inspired TV commercials for credit cards and car companies.
It's hardly news that the vast majority of Brazil's top players ply their trade in Europe and that the domestic game is generally populated by kids on their way up, journeymen never asked to the European prom and veterans on their way back down. The talent drift to Europe has been established as a cruel financial reality of the local game since the floodgates opened in the late 1980s and early 1990s after Ronaldo and Romario moved abroad. But European spending power alone does not explain the current impoverished state of Brazilian football.
The relationship between a national team and the domestic league that feeds it is complex. Generally, especially in Europe, there is a not a huge gulf between the success of the national side and the quality and financial robustness of the championship back home, at least in broad-brush terms — think of the connection between Spain's recent success and the muscle of La Liga, Italy and Serie A, Germany and the Bundesliga. The argument that the commercial starburst of the foreign superstar-driven Premier League weakens the England team is frequently heard, but at least both operate in roughly the same universe — for all England's failings, they are rarely uncompetitive at international level.
Other national teams arguably punch above the weight of their domestic leagues — the Netherlands, Belgium and the Scandinavian countries, for example, while the USA national team is perhaps roughly equivalent to the profile of MLS: both are promising and industrious without ever being spectacular.
It's not so in Brazil, or indeed in much of South America. This is borne out by a quick glance at the Copa Libertadores. In structure, perhaps it does mirror the Champions League – the top teams from countries in Latin America (the competition now includes teams from Mexico) compete against each other in a tournament that starts with a group stage before the fun really begins in the knockout phases. But, depending on what game you are watching, the Libertadores can often look like a very poor relation of Uefa's commercial behemoth. Many grounds are substandard and often dangerous, pitches can be dreadful in quality, a large number of teams exist in a state of impending financial meltdown and violence — exemplified by the death of Kevin Espada, the young San José fan killed by a naval flare fired by Corinthians fans in Oruro in Bolivia — is an all too frequent presence.
It is not hard to guess at the reason why. South America is a continent of developing countries and by definition in developing countries there is not always the money, infrastructure or established social machinery that there is in richer nations. This socio-economic divide can even be seen on a microcosmic level within Brazil, where clubs in the poorer nordeste and norte cannot compete with teams from Rio, São Paulo or Belo Horizonte. Money talks loudly in football.
Yet at the same time South American national teams march on. While the Club World Cup has in recent years (Corinthians' 2012 victory over a lacklustre Chelsea side apart) become an exercise in avoiding humiliation for South American clubs (think Internacional's 2010 defeat to Mazembe, Barcelona's annihilation of Santos in 2011, or Atletico Mineiro's humbling by Raja Casablanca last year), the continent's national sides have won nine World Cups to Europe's ten, despite the fact that Conmebol boasts only 10 national associations. And six of the region's countries (Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and Uruguay) will be at this summer's World Cup. With a population of 407 million people compared to Europe's 743 million, pound for pound, head for head, South America is the world's most successful footballing continent.
There is a fairly simple explanation why South America breaks with the theory that a strong national team is based on a strong domestic league. If all your players play abroad then it doesn't much matter how strong your domestic league is. In fact it may even be a positive — a weak, 'selling league' effectively forces players to play overseas, where they can blend the skills and strategies learnt at home with those of their new working environment.
If there is any truth at all in this theory, then Luiz Filipe Scolari and the rest of Brazil's coaching staff should thank their lucky stars for the grim state of the Brazilian domestic game.
First, and most obviously, there are the crowds — or rather the lack of them. Last year's Serie A pulled in a meagre average gate of just 14,000 — around the same as the Australian A-League and less than MLS. This in a country of almost 200 million people, 160 million of whom (according to 2010 census figures) live in urban areas close to football stadiums and where the sport has no serious rivals for public attention. The situation gets even worse further down the league: only three teams in last year's Serie B could boast an average crowd of above 10,000, and 12 teams were watched by 5,000 people or fewer per game.
The anachronistic state championships, which run from January until April or May each year, are even less of a draw. The Campeonato Carioca (Rio de Janeiro) had an average crowd of around 2,000 in 2013 and 2014, and only 350 fans paid to watch Flamengo, the country's best-supported club, play Bonsuccesso in March. "The crowd wouldn't have filled a carriage of a Rio metro train," said one match report.
Yet poor crowds can only ever be considered the symptoms of the struggles of domestic Brazilian football. The causes are rather more complex.
The fixture calendar is one. A team that wins or reaches the final of the Campeonato Paulista, Libertadores and Copa do Brasil will play a total of 79 games. Compare that to Bayern Munich, who in winning the treble of Champions League, Bundesliga and DFB Cup last year played a total of 53 matches. Nor is there much time to recover between seasons. Last year's Brazilian league season finished on December 8, the state championships started in mid-January, and there was no break at all between the estaduais and the Brasileirão.
Such a fixture squeeze creates a number of ludicrous situations. No team has ever won the Libertadores and the league championship in the same year — as the knockout stages of the continental competition and the Copa do Brasil run during the early part of the league season, coaches desperate for a trophy to enhance their fragile job security tend to field reserve teams in the league. Even if this strategy proves successful and cup glory is achieved, a perilous position in the national championship is guaranteed until the champagne hangover has faded and sometimes long after it. In 2013 Copa do Brasil winners Palmeiras ended up being relegated after spending too long "concentrating on the cup", while Atletico Mineiro, who won last year's Libertadores, were in 16th spot, one place above the relegation zone, until the half-way point of the season.
This in turn affects gates. On July 7 last year, 60,000 watched Atletico win the second leg of the Libertadores final in Belo Horizonte. Just a month later, with nothing to play for in the league and the team disinterested, only 11,000 could be bothered to show up for Atletico Mineiro's home game against Botafogo.
Another factor that affects crowds is kick-off times. Other than the traditional Sunday afternoon 4pm starts, games are played on Saturday nights at 9pm and midweek at 10pm — after the gripping drama of the nightly novelas has finished. It is not easy to get home using Brazil's rickety public transport after midnight, and when they do make it to bed, most fans will have to rise for work again a few hours later. At the same time, every game in the country is broadcast on relatively affordable pay-per-view cable packages and shown in all but the most modest bars or restaurants.
Then there is the spectre of violence. According to Lance! magazine there were a total of 234 football related deaths in Brazil between 1988 and 2013, and 30 last year alone. Even if the majority of these killings were between warring torcida organizada1 factions, in a country which registered 50,000 homicides in 2013, ordinary Brazilian football fans are understandably concerned about their own safety and football stadiums are seen as no-go areas for large swathes of population. While higher ticket prices and better facilities at the new World Cup grounds have seen increased numbers of women and family groups attending games, even shiny new seats are not a cure for the hooligan disease, as the fighting during the Vasco da Gama v Corinthians game in Brasilia's gleaming Mane Garrincha stadium in August showed. Even title-winning champagne does not slake the thirst of the organizadas for violence — a street party put on by Cruzeiro to celebrate winning the league last year was cancelled after rival gangs of the club's own supporters brawled outside the Mineirão.
The authorities, footballing and otherwise, seem incapable of dealing with the problem. Although the fact that perpetrators of the sickeningly prolonged ruck between Vasco and Atletico PR fans in Joinville last December were identified and charged using TV footage was a welcome step forward, in general the official response to crowd violence is a ban on the clubs involved from playing a number of games at home, a slap on the wrist fine and, often, the exclusion of the torcidas organizadas from stadiums. Yet as individual members themselves are not prohibited from attending matches, such bans usually result in the same people going to the games, dressed in their normal clothes and all that the authorities manage to prohibit is flags, T-shirts and trumpets.
Then there is the culture of legal impunity that so scars wider Brazilian society. "Summing up, they were just angry. They're loyal fans — it's the team that should be embarrassed — they just wanted to make people pay attention, make the players earn their salaries and show some real Brazilian football," announced a judge on releasing four Corinthians fans who had participated in a violent invasion of the team's training ground earlier this year, during which players and club employees were physically threatened.
"Because of the World Cup in 1962 and 1970, there is this idea that Brazil is the country of football, where everyone loves the game, but in truth it's not quite like that," said the 1970 World Cup-winner Tostão recently. "There are studies that show that the numbers of people who don't like football is much greater than the numbers of supporters of Flamengo, the biggest team in the country. And it has got worse in the last 20 or 30 years, with violence increasing both in society and in football, and a lack of trust in those responsible for looking after the game, creating a feeling that football is all about business, that it's immoral. Then there are the uncomfortable stadiums, a lack of safety. Average crowds lower than the USA or Australia? What kind of país do futebol is that?"
The poor crowds caused by these and other problems, not to mention the often shoddy fare on offer on the pitch, clearly has a major financial impact on clubs, all of whom are burdened with tremendous debts and are often unable to pay player wages on time. Bom Senso FC ("Common Sense FC"), the player protest group that appeared last year to demand a restructured calendar and greater financial responsibility on the part of clubs, revealed in January that 13 out of 15 Serie A clubs surveyed had not paid players monies owed for salaries and image rights at some stage during the previous year. Atletico Mineiro, current Libertadores champions, were one such club and recently had their share of the transfer fee that Shakhtar Donetsk paid for Bernard withheld by the Brazilian tax authorities to settle (in part, at least) the club's outstanding tax default.
Empty stadiums also lower the Brazilian game's attractiveness as an international product — a study by the sports business organisation Sportpar in 2012 revealed that Brazilian clubs receive a modest US$4 million from overseas TV deals.
And the shoddy state of the domestic game faces a further threat — televised coverage of the Uefa Champions League and the top European championships. In April, Brazil's two biggest TV channels showed the Atlético Madrid v Barcelona Champions League tie live, even though the game was played in the middle of the afternoon. The respected Folha de São Paulo columnist Paulo Vinícius Coelho encouraged fans to not feel guilty about enjoying the Champions League games on TV. "You're a citizen of the world," he cried. "It's Brazilian football that isn't!"
What is interesting is that while vestiges of the hardwired flaws of Brazil's colonial past doggedly remain in wider society, especially behind the scenes, on the surface at least Brazil as a country has changed, becoming more inclusive and more democratic. Yet in Brazilian football those same flaws — a culture of vested interest and influence, of an entrenched and arrogant ruling class in seemingly perpetual power — speak as loudly as ever. The president of the Brazilian football federation (CBF), José Maria Marin, has achieved the remarkable feat of being even more complacent and shady than his predecessor, Ricardo Teixeira, and will be replaced next January by Marco Polo del Nero, president of the São Paulo football federation and effectively a Marin clone. Neither will do much to change Brazilian football, because for people like Marin and Del Nero everything works just fine: they can take the credit if the Seleção win the World Cup and their organisation banked R$360 million in 2012. Meanwhile Brazilian clubs, if they were businesses and not societies, would have long since gone to the wall.
Such is the dubious competence and effectiveness of the CBF that it has become almost common practice for clubs to challenge the organ's decisions in the common law courts — Serie C was paralysed for over a month in 2012 as clubs argued over who should have been relegated and/or promoted the year before, and the season eventually kicked off with 21 rather than 20 teams. More recently, Portuguesa, relegated from Serie A in place of Fluminense after an onerous points deduction for fielding an ineligible player in a meaningless end of season game, spent months trying to reverse the decision in the courts. At various points in the saga it appeared that this year's top flight would start with 21 or 24 clubs, or not at all.
While players, notably in the form of the encouraging Bom Senso FC movement, and journalists have become more critical of late, the power in Brazil lies not with its clubs, many of whom spend their time mired in petty tribal squabbling rather than thinking about the long-term good of the game, but with the CBF and the local federations that back it. Nowhere is this more visible than in the state of Roraima in the far north of the country, bordered by Venezuela and Guyana, where the local state championship consists of only six teams. The Roraimense Football Federation has been governed for the last 39 years by Zeca Xaud, who is now 69. "We were all surprised by how amateur Tahiti were during the Confederations Cup," Adroir Bassorici, president of current champions Náutico, told the Folha de São Paulo recently. "But really Tahiti isn't that far away. This is Tahiti, right here." And Mr Xaud has the same number of votes — one — in the CBF elections as Corinthians or Flamengo.
"The state federations are to Brazilian football what the hereditary captaincies were for the colonial period, created by the King of Portugal and cluttering up Brazilian life for 225 years," wrote the Folha de São Paulo journalist Juca Kfouri recently. For a nation often described as "o país do futuro" ("the country of the future"), it is striking how the past always seems to be present in Brazil — especially in Brazilian football.

Product Description: Fairly light in body and a little sharp at the edges, Yanagi Bancha has light astringency with hints of cabbage and clove. Corn-like yellow when steeped, it gives off leafy aroma like that of freshly fallen birch leaves. Made in-between the main harvests Yanagi Bancha is one of the most common Japanese green teas.
The dry leaves have a sweet green aroma with notes of straw and wood.
The infusion is golden green with a sharp, sweet, green aroma. The taste is sweet and green with nori notes, a hint of sesame, and a clean finish.
The full aroma and taste were present through three steepings. It's worth noting that there was no astringency, even after a longer steeping time which resulted in a greener flavor.

I love this kind of polish but it's so hard to get your nails to stay shiny. Maybe because of the glitter? Any shiny top coat suggestions? I'm using YSL clear top coat but it takes about 3 or 4 coats.
I simply love Julep freedom polymer top coat - it is pretty amazing and super shiny. I have also heard good things about Guerlain's gel top coat as well. Let me know if you try any!!!


Action Bronson keeps it real in an interview on Skee TV.
In a 12-minute interview on Skee TV, Action Bronson touched on a wide variety of topics, but mostly he just came across as a very cool and down to earth dude.
Wearing New Balances and the Shia Lebeouf's sun hat from "Holes," Bronson, starts off by calling out Skee for keeping him waiting backstage for 90 minutes. He then went on to demonstrat his knowledge of the German language, professed his favorite language (Gaelic), named his least favorite food (baked salmon), and favorite Brosolino cut ("Easy Rider"). "'Easy Rider' is the song I've always wanted to make," he said.
He spends a great deal of the interview discussing his rise to fame, calling it a "surprise." He says his success hasn't changed him and he strives to maintain a "meager" lifestyle. "Money, jewels, cars, we like that stuff but it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things," he said. "That doesn't really interest me. I'm interested more in the arts."
Bronson performed "Easy Rider" for the Skee TV studio audience after his interview. He may be a chill dude, but he sure knows how to get live.

Q: natbib: temporary citation for missing references? Is there a way I can specify a placeholder text for citations in which bibliographies are missing? For instance, I would imagine the syntax might look something like \citep[Author, Year]{AuthorYear}. I tried using \defcitealias but I guess that does not work if the bibliography entry is missing.

A: Define a temporary command in your preamble:
\newcommand{\citetemp}[1]{(#1)}

and use \citetemp{Author, Year} in the document body, with whatever you like, say
\citetemp{Gödel, 1931}

It will be easy to use your editor's search facility for finding \citetemp and fix it with the key.

Antawn Jamison: "for Us, I Think It's Finally Sinking In"
By sports-inter October 24, 2019 190 views
Lost in the crazy number of offseason pickups for the Los Angeles Lakers, including Dwight Howard and Steve Nash, was Antawn Jamison. Jamison was brought to LA to help stabilize what had become a bit of a disappointing bench recently. However, like almost everyone else at the beginning of this season, Jamison struggled mightily. His minutes were sporadic, his shots, the limited ones he was getting, weren't falling and he just didn't look like he was a fit. In his last two games, Jamison has started to show flashes of being the Sixth Man that the Lakers desperately need as he has dropped in his first double digit scoring games of the season. If this is a sign of things to come as opposed to a flash in the pan, the Lakers will have a much better shot of being the threat in the Western Conference they were put together to be.Antawn Jamison joined ESPN Radio Los Angeles with Mason and Ireland to talk about if his change in play was as simple as the coaching change or if there was something else, what changed the other night against the Mavericks to get things to come together, on the differences between Cleveland and Los Angeles and Dwight Howard's antics on the plane.
If his change in play was as simple as the coaching change or if there was something else:
"I think it was a combination. I love Mike (Brown) to death and don't know what the situation would've presented itself had he stayed but for me I'm one of those guys where first of all just give me the opportunity to be on the court for an extended period of time and eventually I will find a way to contribute but it was difficult for me to come in the game and my only three or four shots were threes and I'm a guy that needs to get into a rhythm with tip ins, slashing to the basket or pick and pops or things of that nature. Offensively it gets me into a rhythm and honestly those first 12 or 11 games I just couldn't get into a rhythm and on top of that just being frustrated and wanting to play more. Everything just kind of built up and I put so much pressure on myself that every shot I was thinking, not just letting it rip and things of that nature. It just became difficult but I talked to (Mike) D'Antoni and he told me he wanted me to be aggressive and instead of telling myself I need to be out of Kobe's way or don't get in the paint because that's Dwight's, he told me to get in Kobe's way, go set a pick and roll, you're one of the best slashers in the league and D'Antoni did a great job as far as giving me the confidence to say you belong out here with those guys, don't get out of there way, you demand the ball as well and he said he expected that out of me. Getting that opportunity took all that added pressure off myself and knowing I can go out and do the things that I've been doing the last couple of games is pretty much who I am."
What changed the other night against the Mavericks to get things to come together:
"For us I think it's finally sinking in as far as what we need to do. Offensively, be aggressive on makes and misses, get the ball out quickly, get to your spots, don't walk anything up, put the pressure on the defense to figure out who they're going to take out, how they're going to do it and for us to react. Defensively, it's energy. That was the biggest difference between the way we played defense the first 11 or 12 games compared to what we did the other night. Our energy was there for 48 minutes, communication was where it needed to be and there have been a lot of games where you've seen us like 'oh you were supposed to do that, I thought you were going to do it, you didn't say this 'and that previous game everybody communicated, everybody was in their spots, everybody covered for themselves but most importantly, the energy was where it needed to be at. To do it on the fourth game in five nights that lets you know that we can do that on a constant basis night in and night out. That was the biggest difference between the Lakers that we know we can become to the Lakers that have been playing the last couple of games."
On the differences between Cleveland and Los Angeles:
"It's unbelievable. I love the fans and the people of Cleveland but it's nothing like playing here in Los Angeles. Great weather, restaurants, there's always something to do. In Cleveland, when it becomes November and December, the only thing you can do is try to win basketball games and watch television."
On Dwight Howard's antics on the plane:
"Yeah and the other reason is because he is Dwight. He can't get into too much trouble. He has the whole plane cracking up. He's hitting our assistant coaches with a southern accent, he's going back to the Stan Van Gundy and the thing about it is he hits it head on and it's unbelievable. He is a funny guy. I asked (Chris) Duhon and Earl Clark, has there been one day where he came in and was down or quiet or wasn't smiling. Those guys said ever since I've known Dwight I've never seen him not joke with us, not smiling and not being himself. That's tough guys, especially the business that we're in. 82 games and sometimes you feel like, what is going on? But this guy never lets up and I think we look forward to traveling now because we look forward to him getting on the intercom and being himself."

Warren Barfield Debuts Music Video for "Love Is Not A Fight"
NEWS SOURCE: Provident Label Group
Warren Barfield's powerful and life-changing song, "Love Is Not A Fight," continues to stir hearts wherever it's heard. Click the link to watch the brand-new music video, then read below, as fans, along with radio and media professionals, react to the song. "Love Is Not A Fight" is the current radio single from Warren's May 20-release, Worth Fighting For, and will play an integral role in the upcoming film, Fireproof.
Fan reaction to "Love Is Not A Fight"
"Warren, I was at your concert here nearly a year ago. I was here alone because my wife and I were separated. You sang a song that said love is not a fight, but it's something worth fighting for. That song changed me. My wife and I started fighting for our relationship. Tonight, we came to your concert together. We are renewing our vows in a few weeks. Just wanted to say thank you." - Jacksonville, FL
"Praise God for such a beautiful song! This song really touched my heart because my husband and I have been having a lot of 'spilled pretzel' fights lately. We've been married for almost eight years (at times it seems longer, lol), but I wouldn't have it any other way. Each fight really brings us closer together and opens our eyes to the fact that we can't do it on our own; we need God every step of the way." - Jennifer
"After more than 20 years of marriage, my husband and I found ourselves in a situation where the only solution seemed to be divorce. I filed, then seven days later, while at my desk at work, I heard the voice of God telling me 'it's not over, go home.' I did, even though it was not what I wanted. I am so glad I listened. Our 24th anniversary is tomorrow, and we are happier than ever. Your song expressed it perfectly. God bless you!" - Sandi
Warren Barfield shares the story behind the song, of "Love Is Not A Fight"
"My wife is my best friend, who I love dearly, and she loves me," he says. "But isn't it fascinating that two people who love each other so much can cut one another so deeply? When you let issues build up in a marriage, the smallest thing can trigger a war, and pretty soon you can lose sight of your love and commitment to one another. We had a night where something as trivial as spilled pretzels forced into the open things we had left unsaid. Once everything had calmed down, I wrote this song. In that moment, I fully realized my duty, as my wife's husband, was to wrap my arms around her. To love her more than my pride, more than my desire to be 'right,' and to find a way to move through life's good and bad times together. That will be a struggle at times, but love is worth the fight."

Home/News/'CHURAILS' power packed trailer makes a strong point on misogyny TRAILER OUT NOW. PREMIERES 11th August on ZEE5
'CHURAILS' power packed trailer makes a strong point on misogyny TRAILER OUT NOW. PREMIERES 11th August on ZEE5
Not all superheroes wear capes! The four CHURAILS wear burqa as a shield, on a path to #UnveilTheVeil on patriarchy
National, 31st July 2020: ZEE5 received augmentative response and love from media and fans alike after the recent announced of 'CHURAILS', the very first Zindagi Original. Soon after, netizens shared positive comments and reactions on the poster and now ZEE5 launched the trailer of the most awaited web series 'CHURAILS' on social media, check it out!
The trailer depicts a strong and unconventional narrative packed with gripping and exciting moments of four women from different backgrounds with their unique stories. CHURAILS narrates the story of four self-proclaimed churails who come together to open a covert detective agency hidden under the shop Halal Designs. They set a path to expose cheating husbands amongst the city's elite. As their operations expand, they come to be the saviors of abused, harassed and mistreated women. The fast-paced storyline covers myriad issues such as child abuse, sexism, domination of class and race.
"'CHURAILS' is a story of four strong women characters but it depicts what each and every woman deals with – not just in a particular country but globally. These characters have empowered us and I'm sure even the ones who watch it will feel the same connect. We're glad that it's going to be seen by people worldwide!" expressed Yasra Rizvi
"Batool had me at hello. She was cool, fearless and unflinching. She was the friend I'd want to get me out of trouble. And get me out of trouble she did. Playing her has empowered me in lasting ways. We're in the business of entertainment, I know, but this sisterhood of Churails, playing this part is my way of telling women that I'm here and I have their back. We're all still living in some version of classic Greek tragedy but these Trojan women are going to kick ass." expressed Nimran Bucha
"Churails is about having a realisation of what all you can do as a woman. It gives an understanding, insight, awareness, and complete realness of life through the characters and the story. The story is very well written and fabulously directed by Asim Abbasi, he literally took our breath away with his work. It has been an amazing feeling to be part of the super revolutionary change that this project is going to bring. I think Pakistani media will certainly change after Churails. Churails as a show has a lot of caliber and details to catch eyeballs at the international level. I would like to thank Zee5, Zee5 Global and Zindagi official that has given Churails a cherry on top. It was a fabulous journey to be a part of."expressed Sarwat Gilani
"Playing Zubaida has been a personal milestone of my career. She taught me the value of being a protector, the importance of sisterhood and she is, in essence, a fearless warrior who is so compassionate that seeing other women in jeopardy keeps her up at night." Expressed Mehar Bano
'CHURAILS' will break stereotypes, and challenge the hypocrisy of patriarchal societies. Directed by critically acclaimed director, Asim Abbasi, 'CHURAILS' brings together a talented ensemble cast led by Sarwat Gilani, Nimra Bucha, Mehar Bano and Yasra Rizvi for this power-packed narrative.
'CHURAILS' is set to premiere on ZEE5 on 11th August

"Burning" is a short story by Orson Scott Card.  It only appears in his short story collection Capitol.

Plot summary
Captain Homer Worthing and a fleet of twenty ship all piloted by telepaths are orbiting a settled star system.  They are on the run from the imperial fleet and trying to leave settled space.  When they request permission to take on supplies so that they can leave, the planetary authorities refuse.  By the time the imperial fleet arrives they are nearly out of fuel and unable to fight the fleet or force their way down to the planets except by destroying one of them with a fusion bomb.  Captain Homer refuses to consider this but when some of the ships run out of fuel he is removed from command and a threat is made to blow up one of the planets.  No one believes they will do it and the imperial fleet attacks.  After a second battle with the fleet one of the captains launches bombs at the planets but they are intercepted by Captain Homer.  When a final volley of missiles is fired at Captain Homer's ship he launches fusion bombs at all three planets in anger.  Captain Homer immediately regrets his decision, but his ship is destroyed by missiles just as he is about to abort the bombs. When the fleet gets back to Capitol the commanders get medals and almost a hundred thousand telepaths are murdered.

Connection to the Worthing Saga
This story uses several plot elements also used in The Worthing Saga, such as the sleeping drug Somec and the taping of memories.  It takes place on the planet Capitol shortly after the events in the story "Breaking the Game".  The story of Homer Worthing's destruction of a star system also appears in a much shorter form as a part of chapter 3 in Card's novel The Worthing Chronicle.

Slaughter Beach, Dog-Safe and Also No Fear
August 2, 2019 / James P. Crowley	/ Leave a comment
On his third record under the Slaughter Beach, Dog moniker, Jake Ewald has found a way to be an emotional and interesting storyteller. Safe and Also No Fear is the former Modern Baseball singer's most consistent effort with the project yet. While the musician still paints very specific sketches of people and places, he isn't as concerned about stories, as he was on Welcome, or finding a new voice for himself, as he was on Birdie. Safe has the confidence of a band that have finally found their voice and wanted to make a great record that expands on what they've built. Continue reading →
Death Cab For Cutie-Thank You For Today
August 28, 2018 August 28, 2018 / James P. Crowley	/ Leave a comment
Death Cab For Cutie have always been a respectable indie-rock act with personable lyrics that appeal to people that may also dabble with theatrical emo. Ben Gibbard and company have always created serviceable sad jams. Even on 2015's Kintsugi, despite age and maturity, Gibbard was able to bring the self-loathing goods on a song like "No Room in Frame." Thank You For Today sees the band's expansion of sound that they began exploring on Codes and Keys, but it also sees the band peddling back into their early material. The album comes out feeling like an incoherent blob of ennui. Continue reading →
Kississippi-Sunset Blush
April 11, 2018 April 11, 2018 / James P. Crowley	/ Leave a comment
This isn't an album I would normally enjoy. Debut albums from indie rock bands that toe the line between dream pop and emo are usually aggressively okay. The songs are fine, but they don't become interesting until the second album. That's sort of the case with Philadelphia's Kississippi. Sunset Blush is both energetic and mellow, and it seems like the type of album that I'd shrug off as "fine." Here's the thing: it's pretty good, and I've been really enjoying Kississippi's first album. Continue reading →
Mount Eerie-Now Only
March 19, 2018 / James P. Crowley	/ Leave a comment
This is all terrible to write about. Last year's A Crow Looked at Me was a career-defining album for Phil Elverum. That's terrible to say, because it's an album so rooted in the tragic loss of his wife, Geneviève. It's also somewhat ignorant, because Elverum had been working as a musician for over two decades. While a popular artist in his own rite, A Crow Looked at Me was the sort of album that propelled him into a certain level of mainstream success. His near-immediate follow-up Now Only should not be nearly as good as it is, but it's a similarly haunting and honest album. Continue reading →
The Wombats-Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life
February 13, 2018 February 13, 2018 / ninamascheroni	/ Leave a comment
I'm standing in the Subway station waiting for the uptown train and racing to connect to the free WiFi before my train comes so I can download the first single off of the new Wombats album. It downloads as the train is pulling in and I find my seat. I always take a moment right before listening to new music from a favorite band or artist; I want to remember where I first heard a particular song or album in case it becomes of great importance to my life. I take in the blue seats and the fairly empty train car and press play. Continue reading →
awakebutstillinbed-what people call low self-esteem is really just seeing yourself the way other people see you
January 26, 2018 January 25, 2018 / James P. Crowley	/ Leave a comment
About three minutes into awakebutstillinbed's debut album, lead vocalist Shannon Taylor sounds like she's about to breakdown. Her voice cracks as she screams, and it's not pretty. She doesn't have the sort of aesthetic screams that blend in with a song cleanly. She sounds like she's ugly crying screaming along to the radio. Awakebutstillinbed channel Taylor's songs into the type of palatable indie emo that's probably too intense for the Sorority Noise crowd, and that's probably for the better. She doesn't dress her sadness in longwinded metaphors or interesting instrumentals. It's bare. Continue reading →
Jetty Bones-Old Women
November 2, 2017 November 1, 2017 / James P. Crowley	/ Leave a comment
I hate to make the easy comparison, but this sounds like early Paramore in the best possible way. The band's sole consistent member and frontwoman Kelc Galluzzo commands a stage and has a voice that rivals Hayley Williams'. While 2017 has been a great year for female-fronted bands, most tend to lean towards a punkier or more emo sound, and Jetty Bones are unafraid to embrace a sense of mid-2000's pop-punk. The pop embrace is in full effect on the band's second EP, Old Women. Continue reading →
Slaughter Beach, Dog-Birdie
November 1, 2017 November 1, 2017 / James P. Crowley	/ 2 Comments
It's not really shocking to find that Jake Ewald is a massive fan of the Mountain Goats and The Weakerthans. His Modern Baseball songs were always incredibly descriptive and made mundane events seem much more fascinating with his lyrics. It's unsurprising that his second album from his Slaughter Beach, Dog outfit bares a strong resemblance to The Weakerthans' John K. Samson's recent solo effort. Birdie is also much more of a jangle-pop effort than even last year's Welcome. Birdie seems to be truer to Ewald's life than the first Slaughter Beach, Dog album in a too sweet for its own good way.

The Killers-Wonderful Wonderful
September 26, 2017 September 25, 2017 / James P. Crowley	/ 1 Comment
"Run For Cover" could have been the song of the summer. It's upbeat, fun and has a great chorus. In fact, a number of songs from The Killers' new Wonderful Wonderful scream summer. Whether it's adrenaline-thrusting power-pop (see above) or the beachy, U2 doppelgangers ("Life to Come"), it baffles me why this album would be released on the first day of fall, but as fate would have it, the first weekend of fall were the dog-days of summer's last gasp in New York. It was a fluke, only Brandon Flowers could attain to maybe make some final gasps for this Killers album. Continue reading →

Black Kids first and last full album came out in 2008 and while I was a big fan of them back at the beginning of high school I realized I hadn't listened to their first album Partie Traumatic in full in at least seven years. As I sat down to re-familiarize myself with Partie Traumatic I got sucked back into the goofy upbeat dance world that Black Kids makes you a part of. Continue reading →

Animals Good, Women Bad
by Bill MuehlenbergPosted on Nov 24, 2006 Apr 2, 2014
The clone and kill bill to be debated in the House of Reps next week is a strange bit of legislation. While it has some restrictions on how animals are to be treated, it seems to allow an anything-goes approach to women.
Dr Susan Hawthorne of Victoria University, Melbourne, makes just such observations in "The chimera and the discounted women" (onlineopinion.com , 24 November 2006). As is known, the Patterson cloning bill passed by one vote in the Senate, and may well pass in the House on Monday.
Dr Hawthorn rightly asks why amendments involving human/animal hybrids were included, but no such concerns were raised about how women would fare in all this. "The prohibition of the chimera, a cross-species hybrid, got the Bill over the line for the biotech industry. In contrast, the potential exploitation of women as egg producers didn't warrant any protective amendment, not even the mandate to closely monitor their health."
But the chimera restriction is not even all that helpful: "Andrew Bartlett's amendment prohibiting cloned animal hybrids means that it will be illegal to put the nucleus of a human cell into an animal egg and create an embryo. Thus only human females (women) are permitted to be egg donors. The irony is that the prohibition is incomplete: The sub-clause (f) of the same excised Subsection 20(1) that refers to 'creation of embryos by the fertilisation of an animal egg by a human sperm' was left in. So hybrids can still be made. The chimera survives and neither Senator Bartlett nor anyone else seems to have noticed."
Women, however, are the big losers in the legislation. "In the senate debate, the pro-cloning side erected some marvellous justifications. The economic rationalists said embryonic stem cell research will be good for the economy; that it would bring expert scientists and money into Australia. What is it about the economics of science that makes it more important than the integrity and health of women's bodies?"
She continues, "The proponents of biotechnology on the basis of choice claimed embryonic stem cell research would lead to cures for incurable diseases. These claims are at best wishful thinking and at worst, misleading. Despite all the hype that Australia risks being left behind, no one in the world has so far been able to create stem cells from a cloned embryo. But the emotional momentum is such that women will be encouraged to step forward to donate parts of their bodies willingly to science under the auspices of compassion and altruism."
Indeed, women become mere commodities in this brave new world: "But what of bodily integrity? What of the critical stance many of us take on interfering with plants to create GM foods? There is room here for a more ethical approach, one that takes account of the suffering and potential long-term health risks to women whose ovaries are hyperstimulated in the name of science. If we care about plants, water and environmental degradation, why would we ignore the use of women as commodities for science?"
Possible cures are tied to the exploitation of women: "The promise of developing cures is inextricably linked to the abuse of women as a resource for biotechnology, as raw material for just another big business opportunity, big science, big men and apparently big-hearted women who co-operate."
Indeed, financial interests are a major motivation here, but a concealed motivation: "But no one mentions the profit that inspires these proponents. No one mentions the biotech corporations who stand to make a healthy return on their investment from desperate people who would try anything in the hope to alleviate the suffering of relatives and friends."
Dr Hawthorne concludes, "It can only be hoped that social justice and ethics prevail in Federal Parliament next week and that the chimera, this wild fancy of a cure-all, remains unconceived."
Next Monday will be a weighty day indeed. Which will triumph? Ethical science or Big Biotech?

Q: I have questions on how to understand why my password generator is not executing properly I'm a beginner programmer, so please forgive me if I'm not noticing the obvious.
I have run into problems with my password generator. First off, the code is not executing properly when I run the script, it prints "Your password is: ", and nothing else, the password won't generate.
I've checked the code with breakpoints, and nothing seems out of the ordinary. I'm just needing help to solve why it won't generate.
Once again, please forgive me if I'm not noticing the 'obvious'.
Thanks! And my code is shown below:
import random

Characters = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
Special_Characters = "~!@#$%^&*()_"
Numbers = "1234567890"
Chosen_Characters = []
Chosen_Special_Characters = []
Chosen_Numbers = []
Password = ""
Nums_amt = 0
S_Character_amt = 0
Character_amt = 0
Total_characters = Nums_amt + S_Character_amt + Character_amt

def Amount_of_Characters():
    num = random.randint(1, 9)
    return(num)

def Character_chooser(A_o_C, Char_amt, Char):
    global Chosen_Characters
    for i in range(A_o_C):
        Chosen_Characters += [random.choice(Char)]
        Char_amt += 1
    return(Chosen_Characters)

def Special_Character_chooser(A_o_C, S_Char_amt, S_Char):
    global Chosen_Special_Characters
    for i in range(A_o_C):
        Chosen_Special_Characters += [random.choice(S_Char)]
        S_Char_amt += 1
    return(Chosen_Special_Characters)

def Number_chooser(A_o_C, Num_amt, Num):
    global Chosen_Numbers
    for i in range(A_o_C):
        Chosen_Numbers += [random.choice(Num)]
        Num_amt += 1
    return(Chosen_Numbers)

def Assembler(A_o_C, C_c, S_C_c, N_c, Total_char, S_Char_amt, Char_amt, Num_amt, Pword):
    one = random.shuffle(C_c)
    two = random.shuffle(S_C_c)
    three = random.shuffle(N_c)
    for i in range(Total_char):
        chooser = random.randint(1, 3)
        if i + 1 <= Char_amt:
            if chooser == 1:
                temp_num = random.randint(0, len(one))
                Pword += one[temp_num]
                two.pop(temp_num)
        if i + 1 <= S_Char_amt + Char_amt and i + 1 > Char_amt:
            if chooser == 1:
                temp_num = random.randint(0, len(two))
                Pword += two[temp_num]
                two.pop(temp_num)
        if i + 1 > S_Char_amt + Char_amt:
            if chooser == 1:
                temp_num = random.randint(0, len(three))
                Pword += three[temp_num]
                two.pop(temp_num)
    return(Pword)

A = Amount_of_Characters()
B = Character_chooser(Amount_of_Characters(), Character_amt, Characters)
C = Special_Character_chooser(Amount_of_Characters(), S_Character_amt, Special_Characters)
D = Number_chooser(Amount_of_Characters(), Nums_amt, Numbers)

print("Your password is: " + Assembler(A, B, C, D, Total_characters, S_Character_amt, Character_amt, Nums_amt, Password))

A: TL;DR: your code assumes that if you pass a variable into a function and change the value of the parameter, it changes the original. It doesn't. That and some other mistakes cause the program to fail.
Good programming style is not just a matter of looking good, it's about making your code easier to read for other programmers as well as your future self. So please allow me to comment on a few issues with your code:

*

*You named a function Amount_of_Characters, but you shouldn't used capital letters in function names in Python since those signify classes, instead name it amount_of_characters

*You then assign the function to result A, which doesn't really do anything, but a variable name should also be lowercase, name it a

*After doing this for four separate functions, you pass all of them into another function (again, capitals, but you get it), which has parameters named like A_o_C, which is entirely non-descriptive and very hard to keep track of when mixed in with C_c, S_C_c, etc.

Don't make your code look arcane and hard to read - nobody likes it and neither will future you.
After looking at your code, it would appear that Amount_of_Characters just returns a random integer between 1 and 9, Character_chooser generates a list of n random characters from some string, Special_Character_chooser does the exact same thing (except that they both modify another global). And Number_chooser does the same again.
Functions that have global side-effects are almost always a design mistake. Instead of manipulating a global variable, just return what the function is supposed to produce.
Your Assembler finally proceeds to shuffle the order of the randomly chosen sequences - but since they were already random, that's pointless. It seems to expect that variables like Char_amt have been modified by the previous functions, but in fact they are not declared as global, so they don't have the correct values. If they did, the Assembler seems to select a number of characters randomly from the shuffled random strings.
So, in the end, all your script does is:

*

*generate a string of length n

*each character of the string is randomly chosen from one of three collections of characters (English letters, numbers and some special characters) with equal odds

Therefore, this script does the exact same thing (once you get yours to work):
import random
from string import ascii_letters, digits

def generate_pass(n):
    chars = ['~!@#$%^&*()_', ascii_letters, digits]
    return ''.join([
        random.choice(chars[random.randint(0, 2)]) for _ in range(n)
    ])

print(generate_pass(10))

Everything else in your script is just moving stuff around and naming it. And applying random functions to something repeatedly doesn't necessarily make it more random. If you think the random library in Python somehow isn't random enough, you can find better libraries, but for the purpose of generating passwords, that would be pointless.
And by the way: this is assuming you actually want about equal measures of numbers, letters and special characters in your password, otherwise it could be even shorter:
import random
from string import ascii_letters, digits

def generate_pass(n):
    chars = '~!@#$%^&*()_' + ascii_letters + digits
    return ''.join([random.choice(chars) for _ in range(n)])

print(generate_pass(10))

A: Your error lies mainly in the Assembler
Error 1: Total_char, S_Character_amt, Character_amt, Nums_amt
Run this:
def Assembler(A_o_C, C_c, S_C_c, N_c, Total_char, S_Char_amt, Char_amt, Num_amt, Pword):
one = random.shuffle(C_c)
two = random.shuffle(S_C_c)
three = random.shuffle(N_c)
print(Total_char)
for i in range(Total_char):
    chooser = random.randint(1, 3)
    if i + 1 <= Char_amt:
        if chooser == 1:
            temp_num = random.randint(0, len(Numbers)-1)
            Pword += Numbers[temp_num]
            two.pop(temp_num)
            print("A")
    if i + 1 <= S_Char_amt + Char_amt and i + 1 > Char_amt:
        if chooser == 1:
            temp_num = random.randint(0, len(Special_Characters))
            Pword += Special_Characters[temp_num]
            two.pop(temp_num)
            print("B")
    if i + 1 > S_Char_amt + Char_amt:
        if chooser == 1:
            temp_num = random.randint(0, len(three))
            Pword += three[temp_num]
            two.pop(temp_num)
            print("C")
print(Pword)
return(Pword)

You will notice your Total_Char is always 0 and so the for loop was never executed. This is because of your Total_characters was defined to be 0 in the very first place
Nums_amt = 0
S_Character_amt = 0
Character_amt = 0
Total_characters = Nums_amt + S_Character_amt + Character_amt # 0+0+0

After which print all your other amts:
print(Total_characters) #0
print(S_Character_amt)  #0
print(Character_amt)    #0
print(Nums_amt)         #0

So in essence an example run of what your were doing was
Assembler(6,['l', 'Z', 'w', 'e', 'O', 'K', 't'] , ['#', '%', '#', '(', '*', '$', '^', ')'], ['3', '2', '3', '8'], 0, 0, 0, 0, "")
Error 2: Shuffle
random.shuffle() shuffles list item in place and returns None thus one, two and three are all None Types
random.shuffle(C_c) itself is sufficient and you can replace all the one in assembler back with C_c . Likewise for both two and three
Error 3: Loop condition
What does your loop index have to do with the length of your character array? You should probably look at just length of your arrays. If there is already nothing in the list skip.
