Falcon Actor Anthony Mackie Jokes: Kristen Stewart "Should be the Gay Female Falcon Captain America"
Jorge Arenas
Celebrity, Movies
Falcon actor Anthony Mackie recently joked that his co-star and Twilight actress Kristen Stewart should be the "gay female Falcon Captain America."
While promoting their upcoming Amazon Studios film Seberg with Variety, Stewart addressed her recent comments made in Harper's Bazaar. (Related: Kristen Stewart Claims If She Didn't Hold Girlfriend's Hand in Public She Could Have Gotten A Marvel Movie)
Stewart told Harper's Bazaar, "I have fully been told, 'If you just like do yourself a favour, and don't go out holding your girlfriend's hand in public, you might get a Marvel movie.'"
She would clarify those comments with Variety, "That's been a conversation that's always existed. I've always radically rejected it." She would add, "It's nice to be able to talk about that in a way that people really understand now. Instead of sounding like I'm being crazy, like, 'Don't put me in a box! Ambiguity's a cool thing!' Now, it's, like 'duh.' Before, I had to say it like it was some far out idea. Now it's more on the mainstage, which is rad."
She would then explain why she used Marvel, "It was literally just a big conglomerate-y type thing." She added, "I'm sure they would love to hire the gay kids to be superheroes."
Mackie, who was sitting next to Stewart in the interview was then asked which superhero Stewart should play. He responded, "That's a very good question." Stewart would interject, "A gay one!"
Mackie kept the conversation playful, "It's been a really wonderful, eye-opening experience to where I've been able to work with many —" He then turned to Stewart and concluded, "gay kids."
He was then asked if there was any room for a gay superhero on the upcoming The Falcon and The Winter Soldier Disney+ show. Mackie responded, "I think [Stewart] should be the gay female Falcon Captain America." To that, Stewart flexed out a superhero pose.
What do you think of the idea of Kristen Stewart joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and how about the idea of her being a "gay female Falcon Captain America?" Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!

Largest U.S. Proof set in number of coins
Numismatic News Staff
Why can't I find an exact figure for the mintage of the 1823 large cents? You have it included in the 1824 mintage.
We use the same inclusive figure as is found in most reference works for 1824 in all our publications and catalogs, which includes all 1823-dated mintage, as this is the best available figure based on extensive research into the Mint records. The early records were frequently confused, including two or even three years of production in a lump sum, or including coins struck with dies for any of several years, so it is impossible to go beyond the generally accepted figures.
Next to the Lincoln cent (103 years), what U.S. coins have remained in production the longest?
It may surprise you, but the next longevity records are held by gold coins. A second-place tie goes to the Coronet eagle, struck from 1838 to 1907, and the Coronet half eagle, struck from 1839 to 1908 (69 years). Fourth place goes to the Coronet quarter eagle made from 1840 to 1907 (67 years), and fifth also is a tie at 66 years to the Washington quarter and Roosevelt dime, 1932-1998, and 1946-2012, respectively, though there were no 1933 or 1975 quarters.
Which is correct: 1,000 proof 1878 Morgan dollars were struck, or only 500?
R.W. Julian presents excellent Mint record evidence that only 500 were struck and delivered – 100 each on March 12, 15 and 18, and a final delivery of 200 on March 26, 1878. He also makes a good argument that the rare 7 tail feather proofs were not officially struck but were under the counter "specials." To top it off, of the 500 officially struck, 16 were placed in circulation at the end of the year.
What is the largest U.S. proof set in the number of coins?
The answer will vary if you want all coins in a single set or merely total the number of proof coins in a single year. In early 1873 there were some 25 "complete" proof sets delivered that contained all of the coins (then currently being struck) from the cent to the $20 gold, most of the proof coins were issued either as part of individual sets such as the minor sets or gold sets. Later in the year, proofs were made of the silver coins with arrows added at date. In all, 20 different coins were struck as proofs in 1873. Nowadays with a 14-coin basic set, silver proofs, proof commemoratives, Eagles and Buffaloes, the number easily tops the number from 1873.
I can't find a listing for a 1975-dated quarter. Didn't they make quarters that year?
No quarters, halves or dollars with 1975 dates were minted because they were already striking the three denominations with 1776-1976 dual dates for the Bicentennial. The 1975 proof and mint sets were issued with the cent, nickel and dime with 1975 dates and the other coins with the 1776-1976 dates. For 1976, all of the coins in the sets had the 1776-1976 dual dates.

When we arrived at this little creekside spot, hidden in this family's neighborhood, I felt like we had stumbled upon a wonderful little secret. I have a love hate relationship with morning light, but the light filtering through the trees in this location was just as marvelous as my favorite evening glow.
I got my feet a little wet getting the right angle on a couple of these shots, but it was definitely worth it!
The dappled light in the background of these photos along the path was similarly amazing. In this next set of photos during this family session, I brought out more of the blue hues in the summer leaves, and left the soft peachy skin tones.
This lovely young lady was a charmer. I love those beautiful brown eyes! We left the path for a wooded backdrop and settled on an old log for our last set of photos. I couldn't get enough of this area, we had so many dynamic spots to choose from!
It's always fun to capture some of the fun, relaxed photos at the end of a session. The candid moments always turn out to be some of my favorites!


As you may be knowing, Maple card relief loans may involve taking fast cash loans Maple to pay off multiple Maple ON low-quality debts which maybe you are having. But if you are thinking, is Maple consolidating loans good or bad, then here is one of its most important Maple advantages - making one debts payment, rather than making many Ontario credit card debts payments for each of the Maple ON debts which you may have.
Moreover, the rate of interest may be lower than the other fast cash loans Maple that you've been making payments on. You can either opt for secured or unsecured Ontario card relief loans, and one of the most important advantages of secured Ontario consolidating loans is that, the rates of Maple interest are lower.
Financial institutions in Maple, ON usually require that you give a fundamental collateral, which will be usually your Maple house, when you have one. And this is where the question arises, is it a good idea to look into debt consolidation in Maple? Now that's up to you to decide, but the following info on Maple credit card counseling will give you an idea of how Maple card relief loans works, and how you can use it in Ontario to your advantage.
Say you have five Maple ON debts to pay each month, along with fast cash loans Maple, which makes 6 bills every Ontario month. And on top of that, you have a couple of late Maple ON short term easy fast lender payments as well. That's when a Maple consolidating loans company offering debt consolidation in Maple can help.
Maple ON Help Is Here For You Today!
You take a Maple ON credit card debts payment which equals the amount of debts you have, and pay off all your Ontario debts. And with it, you have to make a single payment, for the fundamental Ontario loan which you just took. When Maple ON debts is consolidated, the card relief loans installments you pay each month are considerably less.
Moreover, with timely Maple consolidating loans payments each month, you have the advantage of improving your credit score further. So, is Ontario credit card counseling is a good thing in Maple ON? Yes it is, but only if you are sure that you will be able to make all Maple ON card relief loans payments on time. Moreover, when you look into debt consolidation in Maple, look at teaser Maple rates also called introductory rates, as these Ontario consolidating loans rates may be higher after a certain period of time in Maple.
So you need to ensure that the same Maple ON interest rates apply throughout the term of the loan. Using services that offer debt consolidation in Maple, and making payments on time, gives you an chance for Ontario debts repair, so that you gain all the benefits of having a good Ontario debts history.
Being approved for Ontario credit card counseling can be tough, as banks and Maple commercial institutions go through your Ontario credit card debts history before approving your Maple ON loan. And when you have not made Maple card relief loans payments on time, then you may be charged a unanticipated higher rate of interest. Yes, the debts amount you pay might be lower, but if you make long term Maple ON calculations, the needed amounts you pay will be dramatically higher.
Moreover, there are several Maple, ON credit card counseling companies, who provide credit card debts advice to try to attract Ontario customers by promising to work with your Maple commercial provider. No doubt, you pay a lower credit card counseling amount, but a part of your Ontario consolidating loans payment goes to these Maple card relief loans companies, and you may end up paying more. So it's better to deal with the Ontario credit card counseling company directly, whenever possible, so that you get Maple approval for low interest Maple payday loans. So, is consolidating loans good or bad, actually Ontario credit card counseling depends on how you use it.

Conservative leaders to attend pro-pipeline rally in Saskatchewan
February 16, 2019 CanadianInvestor
MOOSOMIN, Sask. — Federal Tory leader Andrew Scheer and the conservative premiers of Saskatchewan and New Brunswick are to speak today at a pro-pipeline rally near the Saskatchewan-Manitoba boundary.
The event at a pumpjack facility is to draw attention to concerns about Bill C-69 — federal legislation that proposes major changes to how energy projects are reviewed.
Rally organizer Sinclair Harrison says if the bill passes it would be detrimental to future pipeline development.
He also wants to encourage TransCanada Corp. to reapply to build Energy East, a pipeline that would have transported oil from Alberta and Saskatchewan to New Brunswick and Quebec.
The company scrapped the $15.7 billion project in 2017.
Energy East would have featured a tank terminal in Moosomin, Sask., near where the rally is taking place.
"We're here to speak for the silent majority that are in favour of pipelines," said Harrison.
There were also plans for additional pipelines to be built further south.
He said the area already sees tax revenue coming in from the existing TransCanada mainline and is reaping the benefits from construction taking place on another nearby pipeline.
"The more pipelines, the better off we are," he said.
"If everyone could see the economic benefit that these construction companies have on the area, it's phenomenal."
Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe is attending the rally out of concern for the "harmful" policies coming from Ottawa that affect the energy sector, a spokesman said.
Scheer is taking part to share his Conservative vision for Saskatchewan and to "send a clear message in the buildup to the October election," said press secretary Daniel Schow in a statement.
New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs said he continues to fight for Energy East and will bring that message to the protest.
The rally comes as a truck convoy that started in Red Deer, Alta., is making its way to Ottawa as part of a protest in support of the energy sector.

It's no surprise priorities have clearly shifted across all demographics in the workplace* and businesses are rapidly changing to keep up with meeting the challenges around work life balance as well as achieving diversity and workforce participation.
"We're serious about creating a distinctive people experience that will drive exceptional outcomes for our clients," said Greg Keith, CEO, Grant Thornton Australia.
Leading Australia's corporate agenda and recognising outdated legislation, Grant Thornton will provide its people with an innovative leave option set to disrupt the market and set new standards.
Those who have been with the firm for at least two years will have an extra week's leave per year through early access to their long service leave.
"Workforce demographics and the needs of our people are shifting and we are not afraid to adapt to these changes. We are creating an environment that really meets the needs of our people," said Mr Keith.
Setting new standards in the industry Grant Thornton operates within; the advisory firm announced a leading paid parental leave scheme, offering 20 weeks paid leave for the primary carer, effective immediately further increasing that commitment to 26 weeks paid leave for the primary carer effective 1st May 2017.
In addition, secondary carer's paid parental leave has also increased to two weeks, effective immediately.
"We're committed to our people and we care deeply about them and their families. The new parental leave program allows us to provide our people with the opportunity to give both their families and careers the attention they deserve," said Mr Keith.
The advisory firm has further announced that it is providing all people the opportunity to work flexibly. Fostering a fun and innovative environment, the policy, dubbed 'GT Flex-appeal' seeks to make space for its people to achieve everything they aspire to. By encouraging conversations across the firm, the policy opens up consideration of various types of working arrangements. These arrangements meet the needs of the firm and its clients, while also supporting its people in simultaneously achieving their work and personal goals.
"Flexibility in all roles is fundamental in allowing our people to balance their work and personal commitments. This will become increasingly more important in catering to the needs of our future leaders - millennials that highly value workplace flexibility. Only organisations that embrace workplace flexibility will attract and retain the best people in the market," said Mr Keith.
Forming part of the firm's 2020 strategy, these initiatives are aimed to continue to foster a vibrant and innovative place to work for its people. Grant Thornton believes a fantastic people experience is the cornerstone of an exceptional client experience.
"Our clients benefit most when our people are engaged, energised and enthusiastic. We're growing authentic and inclusive leaders that encourage our people to perform to their full potential and deliver compelling client experiences," said Mr Keith.

England: They won the title in 1994 but have been losing finalists. England won the Women's Rugby World Cup 21-9 with Canada after an entertaning final clash in Paris. Martin Osborne Johnson, CBE. A few months after on 13 June 1982 the first women's international--Netherlands 0, France 4--took place at Utrecht (see Ladies's international rugby union for more information in the actual history of the international game). Rugbyfest pointed the procedure to another tremendous leap forward-- the rugby world cup, which happened in Wales of theWomen. Still, they've missed out on the semi finals before three World Cups. Nepia was selected for the Hawkes Bay provincial rugby team.
Ron Mayes trained the United States National Team from 1983-1987, which contained tours to Australia (1983), Japan (1985) and to the primary Rugby World Cup to Australia in 1987. He was the trainer of the Old Blues Rugby Club in Berkeley, CA from 1974-83, winning the very first five National Club Championships available from 1979-1983. Nominations are solicited by the Hall of Fame/USRFF Board and reviewed with a committee of the Board.
Women's rugbybeen a work in progress for the last 12-18 months," Grainger said at the RFU's media day at Twickenham. However, winning the World Cup has given a massive increase because they finally possess around and some great role models to be taken by a prize to us. Their key purpose is normalising women's contribution in rugby and placement the sport as something which has strength athleticism and stamina.
Now, the Canadians lay it all online in the final against England - a team that's finished runner up in the past 3 World Cups. Her teammates and Marchak made a World Cup final this past year but ended second. The World Cup final between England and Canada will air on TSN2 at 11:30 am Manitoba time on Sunday August 17th. This England outfit will not include a silversmith in case anybody at the International Rugby Board was wondering.
England Women captain Katy Mclean discloses a long and challenging journey as her side on Sunday revoked the World Cup in the cost of Canada, paid in Paris. As it certainly was in Dublin where she first found and fell in love with rugby this weekend's encounter in the Aviva Stadium between Italy and Ireland Girls will be something of a homecoming for Italian flanker Michela Este. The standard of Army Women's Rugby is growing year on year. They are the founders of Rugby Magazine.
England lost before three finals to New Zealand, but the Black Ferns did not progress in the pool stage, stumbling in a 17-14 loss to Ireland, which went to crumble 40-7 to England. The Canadians are headed by winger Magali Harvey, who scored the match-winning try and conversion against France, and captain and No. 8 Kelly Russell, who are both shortlisted for world women's player of the year.
The world champions that were successful observed by heading to get a bar where their lovers were packed in tightly, rather than any roped-off, VIP- only section of a cabaret that was high-priced. But, this summer saw elite sportsmen compete in a second international tournament, where the silverware was carried by the women's in England rugby squad. Williams contends it was not likely worse 30 years ago prior to the arrival of the Premier League.
Since Men's Rugby Sevens was a portion of the Commonwealth Games programAustralia has procured one silver medal (Delhi 2010) and two bronze medals (Kuala Lumpur 1998, Glasgow 2014).

CORRECTION: "Ross recognized for 10 years of loyal service to City"
For some actions on Agenda Items, Councilman Chapman was shown as the Actor/Voter. Councilman Chapman was not in attendance during this Regular Meeting. By error, "Chapman" was shown when the correct name is "Fryman". I apologize for the mistake and appreciate that it was brought to my attention so that the record could be set straight. - Chad Pate, Publisher.
The Regular Council Meeting for the City of Mount Enterprise was held on Tuesday, September 8, 2015, at 5:00 p.m. at City Hall.
The City of Mt. Enterprise welcomes public comment early in the agenda of regular meetings. Those wishing to speak during the Visitors/Citizens Presentation portion of the meeting must sign in before the meeting begins. Speakers must observe a three-minute time limit at all times during the meeting, unless granted specific permission from the council to extend their comments. The Mayor and Council reserve the right to limit, table, or deny individual comment, if such comment is determined to potentially hinder the Council's ability to conduct city business during the council meeting. The Council cannot respond to matters not listed on the agenda until a future meeting.
Congratulations to Miss Rosena Ross for ten years of service to the City of Mount Enterprise. You have been a great City Secretary, along with some of the other hats you wear such as Court Admnistrator, Juvenile Case Manager, City Admnistrator, Public Funds Investment Officer, Human Resources Coordinator, Records Retention Coordinator, Elections Coordinator, and Systems Administrator. You are a hard worker, and always strive for perfection in whatever you are doing at the time, and go by the rules. You have always been a postive person and strong believer in people and in God. Thanks again and we hope you will stay around another 10 years. You have my support 100%.
Going forward, I as Mayor, we as Council, City Secretary, and all the employees of the City of Mount Enterprise must hold ourselves to a high standard at all times by respecting each other. Harrassment of anyone will not be tolerated. We have to woek as a team to accomplish our goals. We can agree to disagree. Thanks to everyone on our team. You all are hard workers and have our citizen's best interest at heart.
All of the following items on the Consent Agenda are considered to be routine and self-explanatory by the Council and will be enacted with one motion. No separate discussion or action is necessary unless requested by the Mayor or a Councilmember, in which event those items will be pulled for separate consideration.
RESULT: Rosena Ross took the floor and expressed her feelings about recent accusations made by specfic counsel members during the last meeting. Ross questioned each councilmember one-by-one as to whether they had any issues with Ross's performance. No councilmember stated any problems with Ross. Instead, Ross received several compliments from council. Ross's plea to cancel is to bring back the "family-type of atmosphere" that the City usually operates. Ross, a ten-year employee, admitted to making mistakes but made it clear to council that accusations of Ross's integrity are offensive and unwarranted. Ross asked for an apology. Mayor Graves stated to include in the record that no apology was offered to Ross. There was no action to be taken on this agenda item.
Mayor Graves is unopposed, Councilman Fryman is unopposed, Councilman Jones term is ending with Judy Cox coming in as new councilmember.
RESULT: In October 2015 the City of Mount Enterprise will begin holding Regular Meetings on Tuesdays instead of Wednesdays at 5:00 p.m.
RESULT: Council voted to remove this item from the agenda until Councilman Chapman can return for the next meeting to address this item and Item F.
RESULT: Removed with Item E.
RESULT: The City needs to temporarily house files from a storage building until they can be shred. City employees also stated that the cabinets will provide more countertop space and serving area.
RESULT: Councilman Reese suggested to wait for classes more geared for position. Councilman Jones agreed that the agenda did not appear to have classes over the two days that would be of benefit. Jones is not against more training, but would like to see it more geared to the position. Fryman voiced his approval for the training experience, saying, "it's one of those things where you get out of it what you put into it"… "this is valuable training that will benefit the City in the long run".
Reese. Reese proposed several questions to Ross about Ross being caught up on work and that Ross will not fall behind. Reese also wanted Ross to explain why Mount Enterprise would need a Level 3 Clerk if there are only 62 Level 3 Clerks in the entire State. Judge Rand Cates addressed Council to the many benefits of Level 3 training as well as the reputation with TML that this accomplishment for Ross and the City would help to establish. Cates offered the benefits, not just to the City but to the County, saying that the Clerks in Henderson, "...three people doing the same job that she (Ross) does...", often seek support from Ross. Judge Cates weighed in with his support of Ross's CE. The training will take Ross about 2 years to complete. After much deliberation, Council voted in favor of Ross completing Level 3 Clerk training.
RESULT: Item was removed from Agenda until the City can research the information being requested by The Normal Law Firm in order for a proposal to be created for the City.
RESULT: Motion was made NOT to purchase donations until more price comparisons can be presented to Council.
ee. Pay $176 additional cost to Double D Sales for installation of second door upon delivery of storage building.


Quilting and Life in General: No more excuses! We're H*E*R*E!!
No more excuses! We're H*E*R*E!!
As of yesterday, we are official residents of Brookings Oregon. The last month was a blur of cleaning, sorting, packing, hauling and unpacking. Hard work - we may be too old for this!! And for sure we have too much stuff - and I'm even talking about quilting stuff too!
We showed up at the Goodwill drop-off so much that the gal started saving good boxes for me! Now that's a full service charity!!
A week ago - we loaded the truck and moved the furniture. We had our DSIL come down from Portland to help us load and our son from Ashland come to help unload. Unloading was harder - we had to carry everything up to the second floor. And the old folks were wearing out by then - as DS said, "That's okay - this is only the first time I've moved this today!" Got it all crammed into the condo and the garage. Slept overnight and then took off for Ashland with the couch and chair we were giving to DS. Thus started the grand tour week!
You think you were ignored, we hadn't even seen the grandkids for 4 weeks! We needed some serious 'hug-pats'. So stayed in Ashland overnight with A&J2 and then drove up to Portland to L&Js for 2 days and 3 nights of no sleep! Mr M has a bad cough and is sleeping even less than usual! We had lots of fun playing and watching 'The Princess and the Frog' which is Miss P's favorite now. We also took time out to go find a few things we needed at the new condo; we saw Ironman 2 and ate at a favorite Italian restaurant.
Then off to Newport to clean and finish packing all the last minute supplies at the condo. Mr Clean Magic Eraser - if you don't have them - get them!!! That's all I have to say! We also watched alot of favorite tv shows on DVR - before we turned in our cable box! Would you believe the landlord said he'd never seen the condo left that clean and gave us back our full deposit! Hip hip hooray! Great drive down the coast to the new digs. Unloaded both cars - and fell into bed!
This morning woke up with a headache and it was all overwhelming. Boxes everywhere. DH pitched in and we got the kitchen all stashed away. Then all the clothes and linens ... now I'm in good shape except for the sewing space. Oh well, it will come!
You all know I belong to Stashbusters online. Now I told those girls to slow down with the UFO finishes - there's 79 of us in the challenge. I finished A&J2's wedding quilt in March and here I am at the top of the list already!! Yep, you may refer to me as Queen Doni this week! I've belonged to SBs for 5-6 years and have never been Queen before. As queen you have to finish an UFO during your reign [a week] or pay up a FQ! I may have to pay the penalty. We'll see! I am making the most of my queenly-ness! I may not have time to sew, but I have time to type! So they are getting daily royal decrees! I told my DH that I had to use the computer because I was queen of the UFOs. And I heard him mutter, "I'll say!" What! Off with his head!! LOL!
I'm back - and should be able to have weekly posts again. See you soon.
Fabulous! Glad you're 'home' and we can expect to see some wonderful photos of your new surrounds...inside and out. I know it will be fit for a 'queen'..stashbuster or not! And from the sounds of it...Goodwill considers you their stashbuster queen for a double crown winner!
Hooray for finishing the move. Now you need to share some photos of your new place.
So glad that you're in! It can be intimidating to say the least. We moved 3 years ago and hope we're here for quite awhile longer! I too, want to see pictures!
News from the moving front!

We don't belong in this world, but we must walk in it all the time. Unlike most of those around us we know there is something beyond this "reality." We work to free a people who don't even know they're enslaved. Many call the truth we're trying to get out so ridiculous that they won't even give it consideration.
We fight constantly with an enemy that cannot be seen, an enemy who could be virtually anywhere. Our enemy is capable of influencing and sometimes even taking over those not yet free. The enemy has abilities and powers that we cannot hope to match on our own, but we continue to fight. They hide behind a mask of lies and treachery. Our main weapon in this struggle is a knowledge of the truth that makes us free, the truth able to free those still prisoners. Secure in this truth we can do that which is humanly impossible; we can overcome. But when we doubt, we fall. All our knowledge is useless unless we believe enough to act on it.
Although we are free, the world we live in is far less comfortable and simple than that of the prisoners. The truth is uncomfortable, and has always been so. The enemy knows his game well, and designed a cage most people are content to stay in, most of them don't even know they're prisoners. Although we are free, our lives are not our own. We choose to obey our superiors freely, but the choice is made for life. The slaves, on the other hand, have no freedom at all. Even when they don't know it, they are serving their real masters. Their entire lives they must toil for these tyrants, never even getting a chance to confront them face to face. Although we serve another, our service is by choice.
We were once prisoners ourselves, and had to be led to freedom by those who went before us. Many of us were the misfits. Society didn't want us. We didn't belong. Now we form a new society, a society that will accept any who are ready to be free. We will not be fragmented by divisions of race, class or gender; every one of us is a valuable human being.
We know the prison, we've lived in it ourselves; this is why we fight to free those still trapped. For their sake, we remain in a hostile world of lies and deceit, a world our enemy controls. We place ourselves in danger to liberate those who, in many cases, hate us. We walk among them, on the surface no different at all.
Those who showed us the way to freedom simply offered us a choice. In the one hand, deep blue and dark as a closed mind, lies the decision to continue our ordinary lives blinded to the real nature of things, to turn our back on this chance forever. In the other, blood red, freedom and the only way we could ever learn the truth. The truth we know now is beyond description. Our best efforts to capture it in words fall short. You can't be told. You have to experience it.
When we first left the prison, we were practically babies, unable even to stand on our own, blinded by this new light. Living in the prison was not a problem, in fact, it's a lot easier. We learned to live in the real world a little bit at a time, helped along by our new brothers and sisters.
In the world we left, we were bound and controlled by a set of rules. These rules determined our lives and held us down. No matter how we tried, we could not get beyond them. Now that we are free, these rules no longer limit us. They are in the past now, we are beyond and above them.
Now, we have made our choice. Even if we wanted to (and we sometimes do), we can't go back. The truth is inescapable, and permeates our lives completely. We are no longer the same people who left that prison and the people we are now cannot be imprisoned. We are free, whether we like it or not.
We follow a leader who sacrificed himself to save us. Although the enemy killed him and thought they had won, he rose from the dead, unstoppable. We follow him, and work and wait for the day when we can all be free---the day the party starts at Zion.
Who are we? We are Christians.

Q: Push key name into an array of object looping over using v-for | Vue.js I am aiming to store key names of object I'm looping over with v-for in an array within my components data object. I have seen others pass it as props into a separate component, but I instead need to store it in the same component where I'm running my v-for loop.
<div v-for="(fieldData, fieldName, index) in fieldset.fields" :key="`c-form__field--${index + 1}`">

I need to push each fieldName into an array called currentFields in my data object.

Youngest Drummer Boy? →
NIN Polyrhythms
Today I would like to talk about polyrhythms. The definition of a polyrhythm is this: A polyrhythm, also called 'Cross-rhythm' is the simultaneous combination of contrasting rhythms in a musical composition. Rhythmic conflicts, or cross-rhythms, may occur within a single metre (e.g., two eighth notes against triplet eighths) or may be reinforced by simultaneous combinations of conflicting metres. Simply put, a polyrhythm is more than one type of rhythm that is played at the same time, with each rhythm containing a different subdivision.
One of my favorite modern composers, Nine Inch Nails front man Trent Reznor uses polyrhythms frequently. One notable appearance is in the song "La Mer" from the album The Fragile. The piano holds a 3/4 riff while the drums and bass back it with a standard 4/4 signature. It's genius.
He also uses a moody, polyrhythmic composition for "The Lovers," off the Add Violence EP which began with a combination of idiosyncratic drum and synth loops.
Perhaps the most famous song is "Piggy" from The Downward Spiral which features a polyrhythmic drum solo with beats wildly falling inside and outside the song's meter. It was played by Reznor himself, originally just as a placeholder.
Hesitation Marks' "I Would For You," "Copy of a" and the sci-fi flavored "Running" are all driven by rolling techno polyrhythms. NME critic Louis Pattison recognized this and stated: "This is the sound of a cleaner, smoother Nine Inch Nails, one that delights in complexities of rhythm more than caustic blasts of rage."

Justia › US Law › Case Law › Oklahoma Case Law › Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals Decisions › 1969 › RANSOM v. STATE
RANSOM v. STATE
1969 OK CR 130
Case Number: A-15047
Decided: 04/09/1969
Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals
An appeal from the District Court of Oklahoma County; William S. Myers, Jr., Judge.
William Claremore Ransom was convicted of the crime of Robbery With a Dangerous Weapon, was sentenced to serve 30 years in the State Penitentiary, and appeals. Affirmed.
Don Anderson, Public Defender, for plaintiff in error.
G.T. Blankenship, Atty. Gen., Dale F. Crowder, Asst. Atty. Gen., Phil Scott, Legal Intern, for defendant in error.
BUSSEY, Judge.
¶1 William Claremore Ransom, hereinafter referred to as defendant, was charged, tried, and convicted, in the District Court of Oklahoma County, with the crime of Robbery With a Dangerous Weapon; his punishment was fixed at thirty years imprisonment in the state penitentiary, and from said judgment and sentence a timely appeal has been perfected to this Court.
¶2 Briefly stated, the facts adduced on the trial reveal that Eddie Williams, 66 years of age, operated the Hall Hotel at 308 1/2 North Central in Oklahoma City, and served as night clerk. He testified that on June 27, 1968, around 1:00 or 2:00 a.m., he was at the hotel, when a man whom he identified as defendant, entered the office forcibly, held a knife at Williams' throat, threatened to cut his throat, and robbed him of a pistol, $50.00 to $75.00, a portable record player, and his watch and ring. Williams reported this to the police. A few days later Williams was in his office looking out the window, and noticed defendant entering a club across the street. He then called the police and defendant was arrested.
¶3 Officer Smith of the Oklahoma City Police Department, arrested defendant on July 2, 1968, at the Twilight Club, which is across the street from the Hall Hotel. Defendant was wearing Williams' watch at the time of arrest and had the latter's ring in his pocket.
¶4 Defendant took the stand, denied committing the robbery, and testified that he bought the watch and ring on Second Street from a person whom he knew only as "Yo Yo."
¶5 On appeal it is first contended that the evidence was insufficient to support the verdict of the jury. We are of the opinion that the evidence, although conflicting, is sufficient to support the verdict of the jury, for as we stated in Williams v. State, Okl.Cr., 373 P.2d 91:
"Where there is competent evidence in the record from which the jury could reasonably conclude that the defendant was guilty as charged, the Court of Criminal Appeals will not interfere with the verdict, even though there is a sharp conflict in the evidence and different inferences may be drawn therefrom since it is the exclusive province of the jury to weigh the evidence and determine the facts."
See also Kelly v. State, Okl.Cr., 415 P.2d 187.
¶6 It is next contended that the punishment imposed is excessive. This assignment of error, likewise, is without merit, for we have repeatedly held that:
"The question of excessiveness of punishment must be determined by a study of all the facts and circumstances in each particular case, and the Court of Criminal Appeals does not have the power to modify a sentence unless we can conscientiously say that under all facts and circumstances the sentence is so excessive as to shock the conscience of the court."
See La Rue v. State, Okl.Cr., 404 P.2d 73, and Johnson v. State, Okl.Cr., 386 P.2d 336.
¶7 For all of the reasons above set forth, the judgment and sentence appealed from is
¶8 Affirmed.
BRETT, P.J., and NIX, J., concur.

Career and technical education programs growing in Michigan
By Marisa Oberle
BERRIEN SPRINGS, Mich. – New numbers from the Talent and Economic Development Department of Michigan say the number of students enrolled in career and technical education programs is growing.
CTE programs include auto and manufacturing, graphic design, culinary classes, and more. Educators say the programs provide hands-on learning that allows students to develop skills essential for their future careers.
Educators don't think this growth will slow down anytime soon.
On a cloudy morning, Amani Scott, a student at Niles High School, focuses on her computer screen.
The junior is designing a sweatshirt for her cheer team.
As Amani shapes and places, she credits her ability to create to the CTE program she enrolled in her freshman year.
"There was something called graphic design and production," said Scott. "I found that super interesting."
She's not succeeding in the advanced class and plans to use the college credit she's earning toward a degree in film.
"It really helps you get a taste and dip your toe in," said Scott.
"They can develop skills like essential for those careers and prepare for either the work world or to go into post-secondary education," said Niles High School CTE director Carrie George.
CTE programs added more than 1,300 students in the 2017-18 school year. It's the third consecutive year where enrollment grew.
That growth is happening in Berrien County. Berrien County's CTE program added 700 students between the 2013-14 school year and this school year.
"There's a huge skill trades gap here in Michigan where we need students that are interested in those areas," said Niles High School CTE director Carrie George. "I think that students are finally getting that word that there's a lot of possibilities and opportunities."
George says for college bound students, they get a head start on their degree. However, there are opportunities for students who don't want to go to a tradition four-year school. George says there are lots of openings in the auto and manufacturing and healthcare industries in Berrien County.
"Working with different employers in the area, through our advisory committees for our programs, there are a lot of employers in the area that need students that come out of high school and are ready to work on the job," said George.
It shows students they can succeed as long as they create the opportunity.
"Even if a student takes a class, and they don't think it's where they're going to end up career wise, they're learning skills that they'll use in any job that they choose," said George.
"I think one of the reasons why it's growing is the students realize that these are classes that are leading to their professional careers," said Niles High School graphic design instructor Alyse Hoit. "It's project based learning. They're getting their hands on the technology and the skills that they know they're going to need to learn their future careers."
"There's just different passions than what we're all used to and CTE programs really help bring that out," said Scott.

5G is on its way and its many capabilities are expected to benefit the mobile lifestyle including inflight travel. Imagine the possibilities: exploring the aircraft via virtual reality, downloading a movie in seconds, or transferring data in real-time at 32,000 feet. All this hyperconnected internet awesomeness means more travelers will be using more personal electronic devices than ever before. This rise in electronic devices presents airlines with a unique challenge: How to keep customers happy by maximizing the onboard power supply — without straining flight-critical systems. Already airlines are working on ways to keep passengers plugged in throughout flights, and face some complicated issues. For instance, what kind of power system to install.
Passengers are traveling with devices that require a variety of outlets: 115V AC and high power USB outlets are most common, but wireless charging such as Qi is also getting some attention.
According to SITA's 2017 Passenger Trends IT Survey, the vast majority of airline passengers fly with at least one electronic device, and more than half carry two or more devices.
Meanwhile, consumer trends show that while laptops – which require AC outlets — are still popular with a large number of flyers, most passengers use one or more USB-enabled devices during their journey.
Does that mean getting rid of AC power altogether? Not necessarily, says Panasonic Avionics Product Marketing Manager Gary Kaplan. He explains that AC power still has a role to play in powering thirsty laptops. What's changing the game is the development of USB Type-C power outlets. These allow larger tablets to be used inflight and also support fast-charging for smartphones.
Figuring out what power outlets will work in the future is one challenge. Another is overall power distribution. Aircraft electrical supply is limited – so ensuring critical aircraft operations is a top priority.
For safety reasons, original-equipment manufacturers set limits on the power distributed to passenger applications. Aircraft power-management systems dynamically distribute the power supply to seats; during periods of peak demand, power will go into "restricted mode" by cutting-off supply to non-critical electrical equipment.
In Panasonic's case, the company works with manufacturers to ensure its equipment offers optimal power delivery and aircraft safety, while keeping as many passengers plugged-in as possible throughout the flight.


From the time I was a small child I was fascinated with technology and attracted to complex mechanical toys and devices. My favorite toys were Legos and other construction type toys. I also liked electric trains and car sets. In fact anything that you had to put together to make it work is what I liked to play with the most. Some of the TV shows I liked were: Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, and of course Star Trek. I liked cartoons like Gigantor, Astro Boy, and Speed Racer. I was also a fan of Gerry Andersons Thunderbirds. My preference for technical things are reflected in my drawings from those times. Please see the next few pages.
I have over 150 original drawings from my childhood in case you are wondering.


After a full Christmas eve and Christmas morning, me, Mr, Chicken Fry and the teen queen didn't exactly settle in for a long Winter's nap. Nope, instead we attempted to kill ourselves so we could hurry up and get somewhere we could rest! lol Instead of cozy nestling by firelight and gazing at our Christmas tree while the teen queen ran amuck, we hopped a red eye flight to Tampa, Florida This was a pre-planned trip to visit some friends in Dade City Florida.
You may recall these previous posts from our past adventures with this family. If not they are linked here!
Dade City is a small town inland and north of Tampa. This sleepy town doesn't have much to offer besides St. Leo College, Jake Jovita and our friends. Lake Jovita is a beautiful golf / lake community nestled in Dade City. It's home to some current and former PGA golfers, motocross champions, and some of the most brilliant sunsets the eye has ever seen. We've had the privledge of visiting Lake Jovita for 16 years so to us, it's a it's nice, warm home away from home. I basiclly changed from PJ's to my workout clothes, into a bathing suit then back to sweats. It's a comfy casual kind of place which is a total score in my book!
Lake Jovita is so extremely peaceful. It was rated GOLF WEEKS's top courses and the perfect spot for a get away golf trip for couples, girls or guys only. There are two distinct courses to choose from North or South course equally challenging so I've heard. I don't play but I've seen the pristine courses from a golf cart.
Often we have stayed in the three bedroom villas on the water. Stay and play in these affordable "for rent" fully stocked villas including a golf cart, wide open screen porch and grill. The villas are a two minute ride away from the club house featuring a restaurant, bar and full fitness facility. It's highly possible that this coveted hidden treasure has homes for rent via Air B&B and VRBO. My only tid bit of advice is to watch out for the Florida gators. These courses are well-known for their sunbathing alligators on the greens or tee box. Don't say I didn't warn you!
Mr. Chicken Fry splits his leisure time between golf and fishing with his buddy, former PGA champion, Garrett Willis. They kick back and do the whole manly wild at heart gig.
Which is find by me. I get time off to enjoy my friend Jenn! We cook, workout, talk, swim, play with the kids, watch movies or do whatever we feel like doing. The Willis family has everything you could possibly want to do or play at their home. For starters we have boxing, bumper pool, Kan Jam, basketball, guitar hero, football, tennis, bike riding and swimming. I took a whirl and ventured out of my comfort zone to play some sand volleyball and tennis!
Was there any question that I would workout? I simply adore the Lake Jovita Fitness facility. It features large big windows with tons of natural light, TV's treadmills, and all the weight equipment one might need.
The teen queen and I took a day trip to Orlando to the ESPN sports complex to take in a soccer tournament. Coach Stricker led the team of boys to a victory. But before the soccer match, we had lunch at Season's 52 with some old new friends whom we met in the EXUMAS over 7 years ago! How's that for acquaintances? And talk about a vacation of lifetime. The Exumas are by far my favorite beach destination on the entire planet! It's the most beautiful ocean topography in the world. The water is almost unexplainable and every shade of blue you can imagine. The white sand is easy to see through the crystal clear water as are the sting rays, nurse sharks and baraccuda. While our lunch wasn't on a tropical ocean front in the middle of the ocean we picked it right up and it was like we never missed a beat. We rekindled a friendship made in the middle of the ocean…how cool is that?
Now these sun bathing beauties are 15 & 16-year-old teenagers with braces, boyfriends and car privledges. Oh how I wish we could just live on an island and keep the girls tucked away from civilization!
Talk about civilization…the Wide World of Sports complex is gigantic. Bustling with sports fans.
Santa must have sent his elves to Dade City and delivered us five sunshiny warm weather days. We basked in the sun by the pool over looking a lake. It was so relaxing.
At night we did a lot of eating, drinking and laughing on the patio.
Speaking of eating, I always come home super inspired on the kitchen front. Jennifer has the best of the best in the kitchen. I can't believe that I'm about to say this but she has amazing cookware. Her industrial pots and pans make it so much more fun. Plus cooking with friends is just BETTER! Have a look at these low-fat high protein meals we cooked up.
First up brisket chili. I'm personally not a fan of brisket. I don't care at all for the texture but this was like a pulled pork. It had been smoked on the green egg before making tender way into the chili.
This lean warm dish will be a family or party favorite. It feeds a ton of folks so invite your friends over for some football.
We kept our NYE festivities low-key but super bright. Check out these professional grade fire works that lit up the sky for glaring 45 minute show. Also in the mix was a small homemade photo booth.
Before midnight we also had a basketball hoop contest and a large round of LCR (left right center). If you are unfamiliar with LCR allow me to school you. Hurry up and run out and buy this dice game at CVS, Walgreens, or Walmart. You can order it from Amazon here → LCR. Make sure that everyone brings at least 3 $1 bills. Every person needs three $1 bills to play a full game. If you are a generous host you can be so kind to be banking the game. LCR is appropriate for kids 3-93 years old.
Once the ball dropped and hugs were exchanged we hit the hay for some NYE shut-eye. The next day would be a dead day of more food and football.
Allow the black-eyed peas soak and slow cook for several hours and serve up this traditional lucky dish. This soupy recipe is more like a bean soup than your standard black eye peas. The cilantro gives it a mexican bean soup sort of taste so don't knock it until you try it.
Speaking of food…did you know that my virtual FITness program comes with a meal plan? Well it does and it can help kick-start your weight loss. So what are you waiting for? Sign up today and start building lean muscle and dropping inches to a healthier new you!

Sunglasses have never been something that people want to cheap out on, as a matter of fact, it seems as if a lot of people want to find their very own sense of style. If you've never worn a pair of shades or sunglasses before, you really are missing out. Being able to accessorize with your outfit is a skill, not a right, and that's why so many people struggle to manage that feat. Once you're able to perfect the kinds of glasses and such that you're going to wear on a daily basis, people are going to take notice. Sunglasses can say a lot about both your personality and the way you want to go about carrying yourself – which can be somewhat hard to determine at times.
Oakley is one of the most important brands that the sunglasses industry has ever known, and that's because they know what creates a fantastic product. They've been able to keep their customers happy for more than a few years now, and there is really no other way to go about buying sunglasses without hearing the name "Oakley".
These are glasses that are very iconic, the frames themselves are going to be enough to draw some eyes towards you. They're sturdy and reliable, because Oakley provides sunglasses that are going to survive some pretty serious instances. The "O-Matter" frames are really important, and the glasses themselves are still small enough to fit most faces (and be stored with ease). Not a lot of people are into the over-sized look, but others might prefer it – I suppose it's just all a mater of preference. These shades also come in many other varieties of color, some of which would be black or even just completely white with blue lenses. There's also an iridium coating, which is supposed to keep lenses safe.
The iridium coating is useful in many different cases, but it's also kind of a bad thing. The lenses themselves are going to stick around and won't crack easily, but that doesn't mean it isn't going to scratch up with ease. They're prone to scratching, and that's one of the hardest things around.
They're reliable, good looking and they're going to change the way you look at most of your outfits. With an accessory like this one, you're going to notice that a lot more people will compliment your looks. It might not make your prettier, but the strength and look of these shades are more than enough to warrant a purchase.
With shades like this one, you're probably wondering why you haven't bought a pair for yourself yet – that's exactly how I was thinking when I initially saw them! Trust me on this, these sunglasses are one of the coolest option(s) that you could choose from on the market. The market is always changing, but high quality glasses will never go away.


Once your flight touches down at Queen Alia International Airport (QAIA), you'll be driven to your hotel in Amman to relax and get settled. Depending on the time of your arrival, you may be able to start exploring the city. Visit the massive King Abdullah Mosque, get acquainted with the shops and galleries in the Jebal Al-Waibdeh neighborhood, and celebrate your first night of travel with a plate of mansaf, aromatic roasted lamb with yogurt sauce - it happens to be Jordan's national dish!
As the capital of Jordan and the nation's largest city, Amman is full of cultural activities. Begin your day with a walking tour of the Old City, stopping periodically to marvel at ancient attractions like the Citadel building and the Roman Theater. Explore the sprawling marketplace, where you can find everything from handmade crafts to traditional sweets and pastries.
Spend your afternoon in Jerash, one of the best-preserved Roman cities in the Middle East. Wander among the ancient ruins, stopping at noteworthy sites like Hadrian's Arch, which once acted as the city's southern entrance, and the classic Temple of Artemis. You can also catch a show at the Hippodrome, where actors portray gladiator fights and chariot races.
Depart from your hotel and head to the town of Madaba, where you'll find the Madaba Map - the oldest preserved mosaic map of the Holy Land - and other Byzantine artwork. Be sure to climb the bell tower at the Shrine of the Beheading of Saint John the Baptist; once you've reached the top, you'll be rewarded with a stunning view.
Journey south to Mount Nebo, the holy place where Moses once looked out across the Promised Land for the first time. Have fun identifying sights like the Dead Sea before eventually making your way down to the Memorial Church of Moses, which houses excavated relics from the region. You'll also visit the nearby La Storia Tourism Complex, established to showcase the history of Jordan from both a cultural and religious viewpoint.
The last stop of the day is Bethany, the site where John the Baptist baptized Jesus Christ on the eastern bank of the Jordan River. Located in a wadi kharrar, or reeded valley, the area is dotted with plenty of centuries-old churches and manmade pools to explore.
Start your fourth day in Jordan with a hearty breakfast at your hotel in the village of Wadi Musa, the gateway to Petra. It's easy to see how this fascinating city, widely said to be "half as old as time itself," earned its designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Spend the day wandering through Petra's expanse of temples and other ornately decorated structures after entering through the dazzling gorge known as the Siq. Take a stroll down the Street of Facades, a row of forty houses and tombs with intricately carved exteriors. You might also want to hike to The Monastery, a hilltop temple and one of the largest buildings in Petra, or head to the equally impressive High Place of Sacrifice for a look at the ceremonial platform.
After getting your fill of Petra, continue south to the wilderness of Wadi Rum, a sweeping expanse of rolling desert known for the prominent basalt slabs at its center. Enjoy an evening of Bedouin hospitality at your campsite before falling asleep under the stars.
Wake up refreshed in the great outdoors, and take in the panoramic desert views from your campsite before heading out for a two-hour Jeep tour of the area. You'll explore the canyons and rock bridges of Wadi Rum, stopping periodically for photos with the awe-inspiring natural backdrop. Return to camp for a traditional lunch before bidding farewell to the desert.
Your afternoon and evening will be spent at the Gulf of Aqaba, Jordan's own access point to the warm waters of the Red Sea. Take advantage of the abundant marine life in the Gulf's large coral reef with a snorkel or scuba outing, or spend time relaxing poolside at your resort. You can also pay a visit to some of the area's cultural landmarks, like the Sharif Hussein Bin Ali Mosque, a stunning example of 20th century Islamic architecture, or the Aqaba Archeological Museum.
From Aqaba, you'll be driven to your beachfront hotel at the Dead Sea. Activities are plentiful, and this sunny locale at the world's lowest elevation truly offers something to suit every interest. Go for a swim or soak up the sun from a sandy beach. Alternatively, pay a visit to the Hammamat Ma'in, a group of natural hot springs and waterfalls funneled into man-made pools and baths, or explore the nearby Mujib Nature Preserve. You might also indulge in a mineral-rich mud wrap or another of the regional spa specialties known for their healing properties.
Take advantage of your last morning in Jordan with one more dip in the calm and salty waters of the beautiful Dead Sea, before returning to Amman for some last-minute shopping and sightseeing.
You'll then head to QAIA to check in for your departing flight. Thank you for joining us for a week of adventure!
We found dealing with Raisa very easy and she responding promptly to all our questions in the planning and lead up to this trip. The itinerary was very comprehensive and busy which suited us although with hindsight we did miss out on a few things (Guide in Jerash) and a tour of Amman which was not included. Some of the hotels were not up to a standard that we would like and in need of maintenance (faulty leaking showers) but overall we had a terrific trip.
The experience in Jordon itself was fantastic. It is a beautiful country and we enjoyed Petra and Wadi Rum immensely. The experience with kimkim was good at first, but a lot of important details were missed that soured our experience. Imke never sent us the name or contact info for our driver, despite her assuring us that she would and I reached out to her days before we left to get that info. We felt rather lost when we landed, not sure where to find him since there were groups of drivers/guides at many different places in the airport. Then we got to one of our hotels and it hadn't been paid for and the host at the desk rather aggressively insisted it was my responsibility to pay. I had to call the emergency line to get it resolved, and the whole process took over an hour from our time in Petra as we weren't allowed to leave the hotel without paying. Then, less important but most disappointing: despite confirming with Imke twice that we wanted to do the hot air balloon in Wadi Rum, she did not make the booking and it was already full when we got there so we missed out on one of the parts of our honeymoon that we were most looking forward to experiencing. And our driver was nice but we felt pressured at times to buy things from the gift shops and restaurants that he took us to (I know this is standard on tours but it shouldn't be). And then on our last day we had planned in our itinerary to explore Amman for a few hours but our driver insisted that we should stay at our hotel until 5pm (well past checkout) instead. We pushed back a bit but he was very insistent and so we felt uncomfortable and just agreed to that. Overall, we liked Jordan but I'm not sure I would go through kimkim again.
