Croats on end of Bann Masterclass
Sunday 8th June
Banbridge HC 7 HKHC Mladost (Croatia) 0
Banbridge's third game of the tournament was against Croatian side Mladost. Eugene Magee joined up with the squad after missing the first two games due to university exams. The game followed the same pattern as the previous two with Bann controlling possession of the game. Chances came almost immediately for Banbridge with both Stephen Dowds and Eugene Magee going close. Mladost began to get a foothold in the game but Lennox was quick off the line to thwart the oncoming attackers. The heat was taking its toll on the players in the blistering heat. Bann continued to create chances through Stephen Dowds but couldn't break the deadlock. Banbridge took the lead after a great run from Owen Magee who found Josh Moffett who deflected the ball underneath the keeper. The floodgates then began to open, Matthew Bell did well to find Bruce McCandless who beat three players along the baseline then rounded the keeper to score one of the goals of the tournament. Dowds got his name on the score sheet, picking the ball up on the half way line and weaved his way to the circle then unleashed a tomahawk into the back of the net. Bann made it four just before half time, Simon Magowan and Bruce McCandless linked up well, with the latter finding Josh Moffett who finished low past the keeper.
Bann continued to be on top in the second half. Simon Magowan did well to link up with Kyle Marshall who won a penalty stroke. The 15 year old was then given the task of taking the stroke and showed no sign of nerves as he dispatched it into the roof of the net. This was his first goal for the first team at Banbridge and a big moment for him. Fraser 'Fraznaldo" Mills got his first goal of the tournament soon after. He picked the ball up on the top of D before unleashing an unstoppable shot high into the net. His goal celebration then saw him receive a yellow card for taking his top off.
Mladost tried to get a way back into the game but were denied by a great save from Bingham at a penalty corner. Bingham was then called into action again, this time pulling off a great save after a shot on goal was deflected by a forward.
Owen Magee completed the scoring with an excellent goal. Magee beat three players before putting a reverse shot in off the post.

Check out this great article about our Rockademia program from Stephen Hu of The Free Lance-Star.
Rockademia is a unique program at BANG! Music designed to teach musicians how to work with one another in a band. These group lessons focus on cooperation and collaboration, and will teach students how to create lasting musical partnerships.
The classes are held at BANG! Music on Sundays from 12:30pm to 2:00pm. Tuition is $200 per student.
Students are formed into bands of 4 to 5 musicians. Coaches spend time with each student teaching the essentials of learning and rehearsing a set of songs, the differences between playing alone and in a group, and how to create melody, harmony, and rhythm in a band environment.
There are occasional guest appearances from other BANG! Music instructors or local professional musicians, who will give seminars on specific topics.
Because the classes are focused on the band dynamic and not instrument instruction, students must have prior experience with their chosen instrument. You don't have to be a pro – if you can play along to a recording, you can learn to play the real thing with a group!
If you play an easily portable instrument like a guitar or bass, you will want to bring that – but if you're a drummer or a pianist, just bring your sticks or fingers.
A notebook is recommended but not mandatory.
We are currently accepting registrations for our next session starting in 2019! Call or visit us today to ensure you have a spot reserved. Or send us an email from our convenient Contact Form!


The world is maya. Many people simply translate it as " the world is an illusion" but that is incorrect. The world is real. Maya does not mean that the world is unreal or that it is an illusion. It means something like this: the world as we perceive it is not what the world actually is. We cannot directly perceive the reality that is at the foundation of what exists. That reality is given a word — Brahman. Most of us cannot comprehend the Brahman because we are limited beings.
That is, our perception is imperfect or incomplete, and the model of the world we build in our brains is not what the world is. Neti, neti. Not that, not that. Alan Watts explained maya nicely.
. . . the maya doctrine points out, firstly, the impossibility of grasping the actual world in the mind's net of words and concepts, and, secondly, the fluid character of those very forms which thought attempts to define. The world of facts and events is altogether nama, abstract names, and rupa, fluid form. It escapes both the comprehension of the philosopher and the grasp of the pleasure-seeker like water from a clutching fist. There is even something deceptive in the idea of Brahman as the eternal reality underlying the flux, and of the atman as the divine ground of human consciousness, for in so far as these are concepts they are incapable of grasping the real as any other.
The idea that words are incapable of fully defining reality is a central defining feature of dharmic traditions. We have to use them but we should not confuse them for what they represent. The map, as they say, is not the territory. Words are symbols and they have their utility but if imperfectly understood, they can be a hindrance to the ultimate goal — that of liberation, variously known as moksha or nirvana.
Moksha is also understood as liberation from maya—one of the most important words in Indian philosophy, both Hindu and Buddhist. For the manifold world of facts and events is said to be maya, ordinarily understood as an illusion which veils the one underlying reality of Brahman. This gives the impression that moksha is a state of consciousness in which the whole varied world of nature vanishes from sight, merged in a boundless ocean of vaguely luminous space. Such an impression should be dismissed at once, for it implies a duality, an incompatibility, between Brahman and maya which is against the whole principle of Upanishadic philosophy. For Brahman is not One as opposed to Many, not simple as opposed to complex. Brahman is without duality (advaita), which is to say without any opposite since Brahman is not in any class or, for that matter, outside any class.
To say, then, that the world of facts and events is maya is to say that facts and events are terms of measurement rather than realities of nature.
Alan Watts (1915-1973) is a favorite teacher of mine. He explains many basic concepts of Hinduism and Buddhism in terms that I find accessible. Philosophically I place myself in the advaita (non-duality) school, which I think is what unites Hinduism and Buddhism, the two great traditions of India. As Watts puts it, Buddhism is Hinduism stripped for export.
Unless it transforms into Universal Love, Advaita is just fanciful mental jugglery.
I am not sure what you mean by "universal love." Care to elaborate? It appears to me that it is a phrase that is entirely devoid of content. If you love everyone, it is indistinguishable from not loving anyone. If you care equally for everything, that's the same as saying that you care for nothing specially. Anyone hating everyone equally is doing the same as someone who loves everyone equally. Think about that.
When you love something, it necessarily implies that you don't love some other things (or people.) When you hate everyone, it means that you don't really hate anyone specially. When you love everyone, it means that you don't love anyone.
"If you love everyone, it is indistinguishable from not loving anyone" — love depending on "non-love", sounds flawed, isn't it?
Not realizing that intellect has its limitations, many great minds have sought to mutilate the Advaitic message of Oneness. Mind sees diversity, Love sees unity.


The carrier capacity shortage that is impacting supply chains nationwide is particularly bad in the hazardous materials transportation space. Many loads are sitting unmoved, delayed or dropped. Hazmat shippers and 3PLs are spending significantly more time looking for qualified carriers. The lack of capacity has also led to price increase and volatility.
Do you know what is causing the capacity crunch? And do you have a robust action plan that delivers results – even in the current market scenario?
Join this session, where logistics and supply chain expert Joe Lynch will help you do just that, and more. Lynch will share his strategies for developing the processes, people, relationships, and assets necessary to thrive in the tight hazmat carrier market.
Lynch will walk you through the key topics that matter – starting from definitions and market overview, to the underlying causes of the capacity crunch, the best practices to follow, and the types of shipments, certifications, and compliance.
After attending the session, you will learn how to develop a solid action plan for transporting hazardous materials, and also become a shipper of choice for hazmat carriers.

Washington gathers to say a final farewell to former US President George H.W. Bush
While grieving the loss of his father, former US President George W. Bush still took the time to show Michelle Obama an act of kindness.

Despite grieving the heavy loss of his father, George W. Bush showed his noticeable kindness and affection for Michelle Obama at his dad's funeral, taking the time to share a lolly with her.
As Michelle and her husband Barack Obama stood in the awkward line-up wedged between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, all eyes were focused on how grim the Trumps and Clintons appeared to be, while stationed so close to each other at the funeral for former US President George H.W. Bush.

Mr Trump arrived at the Washington Cathedral with his wife Melania and was seated next to the Obamas, the Clintons and America's oldest living former president, Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn, who had initially not been expected to attend.
Photos showed the clear tension between Mr Trump and Ms Clinton, but a small, kind exchange between George W. Bush and Michelle Obama immediately warmed the room.
As the former US president welcomed Ms Obama, she smiled and laughed as he slipped her a lolly just before the funeral began.

It's not the first time he's shown he has a sweet spot for the former first lady either.
During the funeral of Senator John McCain in September, he kindly passed Ms Obama a cough drop as they sat beside each other during that service.
At the time her husband smiled and she was seen whispering "thankyou."

— CBS This Morning (@CBSThisMorning) December 5, 2018
This time Mr Bush sat with his family but cameras still caught the sweet moment between the pair.
Last month Ms Obama shared her own affection of Mr Bush, saying: "He is my partner in crime at every major thing where all the formers gather … So we're together all the time and I love him to death. He's a wonderful man. He's a funny man".

AWKWARD SEATING PLAN
Mr and Mrs Obama also served as an icebreaker between the tense Trumps and Clintons during the state funeral.
The Obamas shook hands with the Trumps, but Mrs Clinton stared straight ahead and made no movement to greet the first couple, nor did Mr Trump make any eye contact with his opponent from the 2016 election.
For his part, Mr Clinton held out his hand which Mr Trump either ignored or just didn't see.
The Trump-Obama handshake marked the first direct interaction between the current president and his immediate predecessor since Inauguration Day 2017. Mr Trump has reportedly not spoken to Mrs Clinton or Mr Obama since that day.

The uncomfortable reunion put Mr Trump together in the same pew with past White House presidents who have given him decidedly critical reviews.
The late Mr Bush was the de facto chair of the modern incarnation of the president's club, transcending contentious campaigns and party lines to bring together fractious personalities who share that rarefied experience.

But the staid group of Oval Office occupants has been disturbed since Mr Trump's election. And since his swearing-in, Mr Trump has spurned most contact with his predecessors — and they have snubbed him in return.
The Bushes had made it known to the White House months ago that, despite differences in policy and temperament, the late president wanted Mr Trump to attend the national service.

SAW THE GOOD IN EACH PERSON
The ceremony's tributes at times stood as an unspoken counterpoint to Mr Trump's leadership, as historian Jon Meacham eulogised Mr Bush by recounting his life's credo: "Tell the truth, don't blame people, be strong, do your best, try hard, forgive, stay the course."

George W. Bush added of his father: "He could tease and needle, but not out of malice."
Mr Bush said his father "valued character over pedigree, and he was no cynic".
"He'd look for the good in each person, and he usually found it," Bush Jr said in his eulogy.

"The best father a son or daughter could ever have," he said, his voice cracking with emotion.

The congregation, populated with foreign leaders and diplomats, Americans of high office, and others touched by Mr Bush's life, rose for the arrival of the casket, accompanied by clergy of faiths from around the world.

Mr Bush was "the last great-soldier statesman," Mr Meacham said in his eulogy, "our shield" in dangerous times. On a light note, he added that Mr Bush, campaigning in a crowd in a department store, once shook hands with a mannequin. Rather than flushing in embarrassment, he simply cracked, "You never know."

Indeed, memories of Mr Bush's underappreciated sense of humour drew laughter and brought smiles to the sorrowful mourning of the death of American's 41st president.
The younger Bush got in on the act, telling the packed cathedral that his father was no Fred Astaire on the dance floor and couldn't stomach vegetables, especially broccoli. While president, the elder Bush famously declared his dislike of broccoli.
Mr Bush said his father also shared jokes via email with his circle of friends. "His grading system for the quality of the joke was classic George Bush: The rare sevens and eights were considered huge winners, most of them off-colour," the younger Bush said.

He said his dad really got the last laugh of the day because he chose former senator Alan Simpson to be one of the people to speak at Wednesday's ceremony. "He placed great value on a good joke, so he chose Simpson to speak," Mr Bush said.
Mr Simpson said his friend never lost his sense of humour.
"He had a very serious flaw known by all close to him: He loved a good joke — the richer the better," Mr Simpson said.
"And he threw his head back and gave that great laugh, but he never, ever could remember a punchline. And I mean never."
George W. Bush became emotional when remembering his father. Picture: AFPSource:AFP
"Humour is the universal solvent against the abrasive elements of life," Mr Simpson continued. "He never hated anyone. He knew what his mother and my mother always knew: hatred corrodes the container it's carried in."
The national funeral service caps three days of remembrance in Washington before Mr Bush is buried in Texas on Thursday (local time). A military band played Hail to the Chief as the casket of the 41st president was carried down the US Capitol steps in a solemn procession, with members of the Bush family watching and a cannon salute. Military pallbearers carried the casket up the steps to the cathedral.

Aside from the four living ex-presidents, one king attended (Jordan), one queen (Jordan), two princes (Britain, Bahrain), Germany's chancellor and Poland's president, among representatives of more than a dozen countries.
Mr Trump tweeted on Wednesday that he was "looking forward to being with the Bush family," calling the day "a celebration for a great man who has led a long and distinguished life."
Mr Bush's death reduces membership in the ex-presidents' club to four: Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama.

Mr Bush died last Friday in Houston at age 94.
His remains have been flown to Houston to lie in repose before a private burial on Thursday at his family plot on the presidential library grounds at Texas A & M University in College Station.

Мануел Нојер (; рођен марта 1986. у Гелзенкирхену) је фудбалски голман, тренутно члан Бајерн Минхена и репрезентативац Немачке.

Клупска каријера

Шалке 04
Професионалну каријеру је започео потписивањем уговора 2005. године за свој матични клуб Шалке 04. Дебитовао је у Бундес лиги у сезони 2006/2007. Иако врло млад, имао је велики потенцијал да на голу репрезентације наследи свог некадашњег идола Јенса Лемана. 5. марта 2008. године у нокаут рунди УЕФА Лиге шампиона против Порта, Нојер пружа једну од својих најбољих партија у дресу Шалке-а, због чега је утакмица дошла до пенал серије, где је Мануел поново бриљирао одбранивши пенале Лисандру Лопезу и Бруну Алвесу и тако одвео свој тим до четвртфинала. Крајем априла 2011. године најавио је да неће продужити уговор са Шалке-ом који му је истицао на крају сезоне. Зарадио је критике навијача, јер су били разочарани његовим одласком у редове највећег ривала.

Бајерн Минхен
У јулу 2011. године Нојер потписује петогодишњи уговор који ће трајати до 2016. године. Овај трансфер био је вредан 22 милиона евра, што га је аутоматски ставило на другу позицију најскупљих голмана свих времена. У првој сезони у клубу помогао је Бајерн-у да прође у финале Лиге шампиона елиминисавши Реал Мадрид. Утакмица је завршена пеналима, где је Нојер зауставио ударце Кристијана Роналда и Каке. У финалу их је дочекао Челси. И ова је утакмица дошла до пенала, где је Нојер чак и постигао гол у трећој серији, али ни то није помогло, јер је Челси славио са 4-3 на Алијанц Арени, на којој иначе и игра Бајерн Минхен. Наступајући за Бајерн успео је да обори рекорд Оливера Кана да више од 1000 минута не прими гол.

Интернационална каријера

Светско првенство 2010

Нојер је у мају 2009. године позван у А репрезентацију Немачке. Дебитовао је у јуну против Уједињених Арапских Емирата. Због повреде Рене Адлера и смрти Роберта Енкеа, Нојер је изабран као број 1 за Светском првенству у Јужној Африци. Током групне фазе, примио је само један гол, и то против Србије, а стрелац је био Милан Јовановић у 39. минуту. Немачка је у утакмици за 3. место репрезентацију Уругваја и освојила бронзу.

Европско првенство 2012.
Нојер је био први голман и на овом првенству које се играло у Пољској и Украјини. Немачка је била у групи Б и то са : Холандијом, Данском и Португалијом. Победили су све три, а Нојер је примио два гола. Савладали су Грчку у четвртфиналу, а изгубили од Италије у полуфиналу. Изабран је у постави најбољих једанаест овог првенства.

Светско првенство 2014.
Нојер је био први голман на овом првенству које се играло у Бразилу. Немачка је била у групи Г са Португалијом, Ганом и Сједињеним Америчким Државама. На отварању су савладали Португалију са 4:0, а потом играли нерешено са Ганом 2:2, да би у трећем колу победили Сједињене Америчке Државе 1:0 и као први у групи изборили пролаз међу 16 најбољих. У осмини финала су савладали Алжир након продужетака 2:1, а у четвртфиналу победили Француску 1:0. У полуфиналу је у Бело Хоризонтеу, пред 58.141. гледалац, савладан домаћин Бразил резултатом 7:1 и то је уједно и најтежи пораз Бразила икада. У финалу је након продужетака савладана Аргентина голом Марија Гецеа у 113. минуту, а Нојер је проглашен најбољим голманом Светског првенства.

Европско првенство 2016.
Нојер је 31. маја 2016. одабран да брани за Немачку на Европском првенству у Француској. Није примио ни један гол у групи против Украјине, Пољске и Северном Ирске, нити у осмини финала против Словачке. У четвртфиналу против Италије је савладан са беле тачке у 78. минуту голом Леонарда Бонучија, али је Немачка након пенала први пут у историји избацила Италију са неког такмичења. У полуфиналу је домаћин Француска головима Антоана Гризмана елиминисала Немачку први пут након 58 година.

Светско првенство 2018.
Нојер је 4. јуна 2018. изабран да брани на овом такмичењу. Немачка је у била у групи Ф са Мексиком, Шведском и Јужном Корејом. На отварању су изгубили од Мексика са 1:0, а потом савладали Шведску са 2:1 голом Тонија Кроса у 95. минуту. У трећој утакмици је изгубила од Јужне Кореје резултатом 2:0 головима у надокнади времена. Након првог примљеног гола, Нојер је отишао у напад и изгубио лопту дриблајући играча Јужне Кореје. Овај је послао лопту ка Сону Хјунгмину који поставља коначан резултат. Немачка је након 80 година елиминисана у првом колу Светског првенства.

Evelyn Loulakis
Zis-Sweeney and St. Laurent Funeral Home
Evelyn Betses Loulakis, of Nashua, NH, formerly of Lowell, MA, died on Tuesday morning, 30 May 2017, in Nashua, New Hampshire, after a recent period of declining health.
Born in Lowell, MA, on 30 December 1928, the daughter of the late James and Stella Betses, Evelyn graduated from Lowell High School, Class of 1947. She went on to work as a bookkeeper throughout most of her career. Evelyn attended night courses at Merrimack College, while working full-time at the Lowell Gas Company. On 21 June 1953, she married Charles ("Charlie") Loulakis and moved to Pontiac, MI. She was employed in the Pontiac Division of General Motors, Inc. as a bookkeeper.
Evelyn and Charlie and their growing family moved to Nashua, in September 1961, where she raised her family and worked as a key punch IBM operator at the Doehla Card Company, and later still at Raytheon Company.
She enjoyed spending time with her loved ones, and was quick with giving thorough and well-balanced advice, but only when asked. She is survived by two sons, Attorney Michael Loulakis and his wife, Attorney Karen Loulakis, of Great Falls, VA, and Mark Loulakis and his wife Michelle, of Nashua, NH, and her daughter, Cynthia Kaklamanos, and her husband, Attorney James Kaklamanos, of Nashua; seven grandchildren, Dr. James Kaklamanos and his wife Kristen, Christie Conticchio and her husband Peter, both of Nashua, NH, Alexa Card and her husband Brian, of Bedford, MA, Christina Solomon and her husband Richard, of Sherman Oaks, CA, Andrea Matthews and her husband Andrew, of Philadelphia, PA, Charles Loulakis, of Denver, CO, and Brittny Loulakis, and her fiancé, Timothy Cerato, of Manchester, NH. She is further survived by her sister, Dyanne Mitropoulis of Chelmsford, MA, and two sisters-in-law, Josephine Betses, of Kennebunkport, ME, and Priscilla Betses, of Nashua, NH. Evelyn was predeceased by her husband of forty-eight years, Charles, five sisters: Florence, Katherine, Helen and Penelope Betses, and Mary Lellos; three brothers, John, Andrew and George Betses; two brothers-in-law, Ted Lellos and Peter Mitropoulis, a sister-in-law, Stella Betses, and a nephew, Peter Lellos. She is also survived by numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins.

The suspect in two shootings at Northern California farms that left seven dead was an employee at one of the locations, authorities said
By OLGA R. RODRIGUEZ and HAVEN DALEY - Associated Press
HALF MOON BAY, Calif. (AP) — HALF MOON BAY, Calif. (AP) — An agricultural worker killed seven people at the farm where he worked and at another business in Northern California, plunging the state into mourning again in the wake of its third mass killing in eight days.
Officers arrested a suspect in Monday's shootings, 67-year-old Chunli Zhao, after they found him in his car in the parking lot of a sheriff's substation, San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus said.
Seven people were found dead and an eighth wounded at a farm and another location several miles away, the Sheriff's Office said. Officials have suspected that Zhao worked at one of the facilities and that the victims were workers as well, Corpus said. Officials haven't determined a motive for the shooting.
San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus confirmed Tuesday that Zhao was an employee at Mountain Mushroom Farm. She says that the only known connection between the shooter and his victims is that "they may have been coworkers."
The sheriff's office said seven of the victims were men and one was a woman. Some were Asian and others were Hispanic, and some were migrant workers.
Aerial television images Monday showed police officers collecting evidence from a farm with dozens of greenhouses, which appeared to be the location where police found four dead. On Tuesday morning, police continued to block off the location.
On Jan. 16, a teenage mother and her baby were among six people killed in a shooting at a home in California's Central Valley. Officials discussing the investigation mentioned a possible gang link to the killings.
California was still reeling Tuesday from an attack on a Lunar New Year celebration in Monterey Park that killed 11 and cast a shadow over an important holiday for many Asian-American communities. Authorities are still seeking a motive for the Saturday shooting.
"For the second time in recent days, California communities are mourning the loss of loved ones in a senseless act of gun violence," President Joe Biden said Tuesday morning. "Even as we await further details on these shootings, we know the scourge of gun violence across America requires stronger action."
The new year has brought six mass killings in the U.S. in fewer than three weeks, accounting for 39 deaths. Three have occurred in California since Jan. 16, according to a database compiled by The Associated Press, USA Today and Northeastern University. The database tracks every mass killing — defined as four dead not including the offender — committed in the U.S. since 2006.
The killings occurred on the outskirts of Half Moon Bay, a city about 30 miles (48 kilometers) south of San Francisco.
Half Moon Bay Vice Mayor Joaquin Jimenez said the victims included Chinese and Latino farmworkers. Some workers lived at one of the facilities and children may have witnessed the shooting, she said. Corpus said it wasn't immediately clear how the two locations were connected.
The Sheriff's Office first received reports of a shooting in the afternoon and found four people dead and a fifth wounded at the first scene. Officers then found three more people fatally shot nearby, Capt. Eamonn Allen said in a news release.
About two hours later, a sheriff's deputy spotted Zhao's car parked outside a sheriff's substation in a strip mall and arrested him.
A video of the arrest showed three officers approaching a parked car with drawn weapons. Zhao got out of the car, and the officers pulled him to the ground, put him in handcuffs, and led him away. A weapon was found in his vehicle, officials said. The video was captured by Kati McHugh, a Half Moon Bay resident who witnessed the arrest.
The sheriff's department believes Zhao acted alone.
"We're still trying to understand exactly what happened and why, but it's just incredibly, incredibly tragic," said state Sen. Josh Becker, who represents the area and called it "a very close-knit" agricultural community.
Half Moon Bay is a small coastal city with agricultural roots, home to about 12,000 people. The surrounding San Mateo County is a mixture of coastal cities and hills dotted with farms, included floral and tree nurseries as well as ranches. The county also allows cannabis to be grown in greenhouses and at nurseries in some areas.
It's a majority-white community. About a third of the population is Latino and about 5% is Asian, according to Census data.
"We are sickened by today's tragedy in Half Moon Bay," said San Mateo County Supervisor Dave Pine said. "We have not even had time to grieve for those lost in the terrible shooting in Monterey Park. Gun violence must stop."
California Gov. Gavin Newsom tweeted that he was "at the hospital meeting with victims of a mass shooting when I get pulled away to be briefed about another shooting. This time in Half Moon Bay. Tragedy upon tragedy."

I've recently had the pleasure of catching the film "Honnouji Hotel" at a Japanese film festival held at the National Museum of Singapore. It truly is a breath of fresh air to watch films outside of Hollywood as you can really see a very different artistic style which is instantly distinguishable from Western filmmaking. Read on below for the Honnouji Hotel film review to see if this comedy time travel is as good as they say!
Plotwise, our main character is engaged but is however unsure about the marriage and in fact, about what she really wants to do in her life. She is somehow transported back to feudal Japan, a day before the famous Honnouji incident where Nobunaga Oda is "killed" during a rebellion against him. I say "killed" because his body was never actually found. The incident takes place at the sprawling Honnouji Buddhist Temple which was burned down during the incident. Nobunaga Oda is seemingly the exact opposite of our main character, soon to achieve his dream of unifying the nation and extremely cocksure about himself.
It all starts with the Time-Travel Lift!
The pacing during the first half can be quite slow and essentially grinds to a halt whenever she is transported back to the present. The first half really focuses heavily on themes of comedy and drama while the latter half is where the film really picks up and gets more intense, feeling a bit more like a science fiction film. The humor is very Japanese in nature and if you are unaccustomed to it, you might even think that it is bad acting. Although the "magic" of how she goes back in time is never quite scientifically explained, it is not the gist of the film and is akin to the magic-realism elements found in some of Haruki Murakami's novels.
I quite enjoyed the dynamic between the 2 lead characters and how she brought him back down to Earth, to his roots to let him see whether he was affecting real change and doing it in in a morally upright manner. On the other hand, he let her know that she should dream big and not let anyone hold her back. The character growth might not have been the smoothest I've seen portrayed but it made sense and was believable enough. You do come to care for the characters quite a bit, even some of the neglected side characters. I especially liked her fiance's dad and Ranmaru was also quite funny.
I have to say, the cinematography is actually very interesting in this film. It has many creative scene transitions and the angles just feel so different from the usual shots we get from Hollywood films. The film just feels all the more distinct for it although I would not say that it is distinctly Japanese it just feels…different, fresh.
A genre-mixing comedy drama that more than meets the eye!
This is one of the unique slapstick drama-comedy that blends multiple genres to come from Japan. With its plot mixed with much of Japanese flavour, you will enjoy some genuine laughter while also learning a bit of Japanese history.

Q: How can I specify a custom icon for different folders in Unity? I would like to have certain folders have their own custom icons. I've been doing this with scripts for some time, by creating .desktop files like the following:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Script
Exec="/home/me/script.sh"
Icon=/home/me/foo.ico
Terminal=false

From what I can tell, there is a way to do this with directories too, but the file extension has to be .directory instead of .desktop. But where are the instructions for this located? The ones located on Free Desktop don't specify the format for the directory file, and I can't find any others on the Internet. When I've just put something like:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Directory
Name=My Directory
Path=/home/me/mydir
Icon=/home/me/mydir.ico

it hasn't worked.

A: The most basic version of a .desktop file to open a directory:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Files
Exec=nautilus /path/to/your/directory
Icon=/path/to/your/icon
Type=Application

So the type still should to be set to Type=Application.
You can make a .desktop file do anything, just by setting the right command in the Exec= line. The command to open a folder with nautilus is
nautilus /path/to/folder

Look inside the file /usr/share/applications/nautilus.desktop. It says:
Type=Application

and
Exec=nautilus --new-window %U

Note
Be aware of the fact that the starter is not your folder, like the starter to your script is not your script, it only contains the command to open it.
Alternative
Having said that, there is a much easier way to give a folder another icon:

*

*right click on the folder > properties

*click on the icon

*browse to the icon of your choice, set it

Done:

Remove off-terrain objects

            This tool can be used to create a bare-earth DEM from a fine-resolution digital
            surface model. The tool is typically applied to LiDAR DEMs which frequently
            contain numerous off-terrain objects such as buildings, trees and other
            vegetation, cars, fences and other anthropogenic objects. The algorithm works by
            finding and removing steep-sided peaks within the DEM. All peaks within a
            sub-grid, with a dimension of the user-specified Maximum Off-Terrain Object
                Size, in pixels, are identified and removed. Each of the edge cells of
            the peaks are then examined to see if they have a slope that is less than the
            user-specified Minimum OTO Edge Slope and a back-filling procedure is
            used. This ensures that OTOs are distinguished from natural topographic
            features such as hills.

Scripting:

The following is an example of a Python script using this tool:

                wd = pluginHost.getWorkingDirectory()

                # You may have multiple input files but they must

                # be separated by semicolons in the string.

                inputFiles = wd + "input1.dep" + ";" + wd + "input2.dep" + ";" + wd + "input3.dep"

                outputSuffix = "bare earth"

                maxObjectSize = "250"

                minEdgeSlope = "15"

                iterate = "true"

                args = [inputFiles, outputSuffix, maxObjectSize, iterate]

                pluginHost.runPlugin("RemoveOffTerrainObjects", args, False)

This is a Groovy script also using this tool:

                def wd = pluginHost.getWorkingDirectory()

                // You may have multiple input files but they must

                // be separated by semicolons in the string.

                def inputFiles = wd + "input1.dep" + ";" + wd + "input2.dep" + ";" + wd + "input3.dep"

                def outputSuffix = "bare earth"

                def maxObjectSize = "250"

                def minEdgeSlope = "15"

                def iterate = "true"

                String[] args = [inputFiles, outputSuffix, maxObjectSize, iterate]

                pluginHost.runPlugin("RemoveOffTerrainObjects", args, false)

Nutrition is key if you are to perform at your best on the big island. On today's episode of The Kona edge we look at the value of the correct nutrition in the build up to the Ironman World Championships in Kona with Reece Barclay.
BRAD BROWN: This is The Kona Edge, I'm Brad Brown, and joining me in London today is Reece Barclay, Reece welcome back onto the podcast. Good to have you, thanks for your time.
BRAD BROWN: Reece, the first time we spoke and just spoke about your journey to Kona, you mentioned that you made some big changes to your sort of nutrition strategy in your build up to Kona in 2015. Prior to that, did you sort of just wing it? I mean obviously you come from a sports science sort of background but did you sort of just play it by ear and see how you feel or did you have a set strategy going into each one of your races prior to that change?
REECE BARCLAY: Yeah, so the two races I did, Ironman distance before Kona were in the UK where it's a coldish environment and you can get away with a lot more, I think in the colder environment. I kind of winged it on the second one. I had a strategy going in but unfortunately I dropped half of my nutrition without me knowing it on the bike course so I went to go and get it out my back pocket and it was no longer there, so yeah after that I had to wing it but going into Kona we really brushed up on the nutrition because we knew that the things that we would normally get away with, we wouldn't because the heat would not allow it. So yeah, that was a big changing point for us.
BRAD BROWN: All right, let's talk about the change and you looked for help as well which I'm interested in too. Tell us a little bit about the decision on what you needed to do and what you ended up doing.
REECE BARCLAY: Yeah, so we needed to basically find a food source that both of us, you know, could tolerate and it wasn't necessarily the same thing for the both of us because what I can handle, Lucy can't handle and sometimes vice versa. So we went to the University of Bedfordshire and the top nutritionist there, well all them really, but Hannah helped us particularly. She basically explained to us what your body can take and what you should be taking throughout the course of the bike, particularly the bike and what you should be taking on the run and it was a real eye opener as to you know, wow, you know we'd been having a feast on the bike compared to what we should be taking, so.
BRAD BROWN: Are you one who can eat solids or are you generally a sort of liquids and gel sort of guy?
REECE BARCLAY: I can eat solids up until, towards the end of the bike, I'd move over to gels but yeah throughout the bike I've got no problem with solids.
BRAD BROWN: Talk to me about your strategy in Kona, yours personally. I mean what do you do in the build up to the race possibly the day, two days before and then on race morning and what do you do in the race itself?
REECE BARCLAY: So, I clean up my diet from about three weeks out and by that I mean just you know generally eating lean, healthy and cutting out all of the rubbish foods. I sweat a lot so I knew I was going to have to be super hydrated going into the race. So I was conscious of that. I had a bottle of water on me at all times and a pinch of salt in the water as well so I don't get all of my electrolytes drained out. Then my strategy for the day was just absolutely take the time to get the water down and make sure that I'm always hydrated.
I knew that if I got dehydrated it would be game over. So that was my number one priority and the second one was just try and adhere to the strategy as much as I possibly could. I'd allowed a little bit of way for error and leeway with my strategy so I knew that had I missed, you know my gel, whatever time I had set to take it, it wasn't the end of the world, you know I could take it at so and so and I had it all, you know thoroughly planned out so.
BRAD BROWN: One thing I picked up from your race report is you were really deliberate in your two transitions off the bike and out of the water with regards to getting hydration in. Tell me the thinking behind that.
REECE BARCLAY: Yeah, so after the practice swim that we'd done the week before I just remember getting out of that swim and being really, really thirsty and you know salt obviously makes it worse so after that I decided, well I'm just going to take the extra 30 odd seconds, whatever it takes to take some liquid on board into T1. So I froze a bottle of coconut water the night before and by the time I got out of the swim that had defrosted nicely so I just nicked that and away I go really. I was already hydrated going onto the bike, same thing on T2. Unfortunately though the coconut water was really warm by then so I didn't really like that one but got it down me.
BRAD BROWN: As far as recovery nutrition goes, is there anything particular that you do?
REECE BARCLAY: After the race I just had pizza and beer to be honest. So, not a good answer but in training generally I'm very good. I'll make sure I have my protein shake and generally a banana as well within 20 minutes after my workout as well and I eat quite healthily as well, so.
BRAD BROWN: Brilliant yeah, there's nothing wrong with pizza and beer after an Ironman. It's well deserved.
BRAD BROWN: Reece Barclay, it's been great catching up. Thank you so much for your time here on The Kona Edge. We look forward to catching up and best of luck in the build up to Lanzarote and yeah, who knows, second Ironman Kona and let's hold thumbs for that podium.

Power Level: Mid-level
Game System: DC Heroes/BoH
Role: Character (Heroic)
This is the second half of the article, so everyone can read it comfortably.
The first half is there.
History (part 4)
Starting right where the previous half stopped….
Street Fighter 4, part 1
Ryu once again entered the World Warrior tournament to test his skills. He had a rematch with his long term rival and emerged victorious. Ryu went on to face the champion Seth in the final round.
The fight was so ferocious that it caused structural damage to the building. The place started to crumble. Up against the ropes, Ryu willingly released the power of the Satsui no Hado. This was a desperate gambit to destroy the BLECE machine granting Seth his powers.
That worked, and Ryu overcame Seth.
Sakura, who had again been following Ryu, was knocked out from a stray blast from the damaged BLECE machine. But Ryu threw a final hadouken at the device. That destroyed it once and for all, and allowed for escaping the rapidly collapsing building.
Ryu was then confronted by his former master Gouken – still alive. Gouken had used the power of zen nothingness to survive Akuma's attack. He had since been in hiding.
Gouken used his power on Ryu, to seal the dark energy within him.
Akuma then showed up. He challenged Gouken to another bout, stating that the winner would get Ryu as a prize.
The outcome of the battle is unknown. But there are theories based on what happened later in the storyline.
It seems most likely that Akuma did not win. Ryu is later seen free of the taint of the Satsui no Hado.
It is possible that their match was either a draw, or was interrupted, or that Gouken won.
Another possibility is that Gouken lost, but by this time Ryu had grown strong enough to repel Akuma himself.
Ryu and Ken were later seen chasing their former master along a cliff. Ken begged him to stay and train them some more while Ryu merely bid him farewell.
Ryu then said good bye to Dan, Blanka, and Sakura who had all been travelling together.
Sakura, now a full grown adult (but still somehow wearing her school girl uniform) once again asked him to be her teacher. Ryu once again refused saying that he was not yet ready. She once again vowed that she would one day force him to acknowledge her, this time as an equal.
(Ryu sports a few new moves in the SF3 storyline. So it is possible that he was further trained by Gouken at some later point. But is merely a No-Prize HypothesisA made-up explanation to plug a plot hole and not confirmed by anything official.)

Putting the SF5 version of Ryu's theme here would be logical, Captain.

Onward to SF5.
Ryu got nightmares about fighting his evil self. While training with Gouken, he was once again consumed by the Satsui no Hado. He threw a mighty hadouken infused with dark energy, with every intent to kill his master.
There was a flash of light. Once Ryu came to Gouken explained that the dark energy had nearly taken control of him. The master had thus been forced to subdue his student.
Newcomer Rashid then challenged Ryu. The Japanese fighter was hesitant to accept, fearing that he may once again lose control. They eventually sparred, with a clear Ryu victory.
Ryu then went on another training journey, meeting up with Ken in Brazil. Though Ryu was still troubled by the Satsui no Hado reemerging, the two fighters had a friendly sparring match with an unclear winner.
Ryu was next seen in China, getting ambushed by a Shadaloo soldier. Charlie Nash once again appeared, taking the soldier out in time. Charlie and Ryu agreed to a friendly sparring match resulting in a draw. They both walked away with mutual respect.
Street Fighter V: A Shadow Falls (part 1)
Ryu later met with Dhalsim. The Indian master was training a new fighter, Mahesh.
Learning about Ryu's struggle with the Satsui no Hado, Dhalsim advised to confront it head on. To keep trying to suppress it could only lead to Ryu being consumed by it.
They were then attacked by Necalli, an ancient Nahua warrior and consumer of souls. Dhalsim defended his pupil while Ryu attempted to fight off the demonic warrior. Things didn't go so well for the heroic Shotokan fighter, and he started succumbing to the dark force.
Fortunately, Dhalsim halted the process, then stepped in to fight off Necalli. Just as the demon disappeared the sun was blotted out by a dark moon, which gave Ryu visions of Bison.
Ryu teamed up with Ken, Chun Li, and Karen to mount a final assault against Bison. The Shadaloo boss and the heroic Shotokan fighter finally got their rematch.
Ryu seemed to have the upper hand for most of the fight. But Bison refused to give up. Ryu then threw a mighty Hadouken infused with the Power of Nothingness at Bison, seemingly killing him again.
(While the narration isn't clear it's stated that the Power of Nothingness is the polar opposite of Satsui no Hado. This suggests that Ryu may have finally tamed the dark energy for good.)
While the base was blowing up Chun Li was almost consumed in the inferno. But Ryu shot a Hadouken into the flames to suppress them.
Sometime later Ken and Ryu once again squared off in a friendly sparring match. Ryu won. His final blow knocked Ken's headband off, and Ken decided to let his buddy keep it as a memento. He was beaming with pride on how much his friend has grown.

Street Fighter III: Second Impact (part 1)
Ryu was still training hard (duh!). He was now 33.
Since Ken had had a child the two brothers had grown apart. Ken therefore decided to rekindle their friendship. He invited Ryu to a traditional Japanese hot spring inn to meet his new student Sean.
They later wound up watching a wrestling match between Zangief and Hogan. Right off the bat Zangief dominated the bout. He tossed his opponent out of the ring, causing Hogan to go berserk. He threw a chair at a female spectator, which Ryu blocked. Sean knocked Hogan out to protect the crowd.
Ryu was later challenged by a hot headed wrestler named Alex. Although Alex wasn't quite up to the seasoned champion level of Ryu, he put up a good fight. Thus, Ryu encouraged Alex to continue training and eventually overcome the tournament's host Gil.
Ryu later lost to Oro. Oro was an old man — well over 100 years old — who knew that his time was near. He had been looking for a worthy successor to carry on his legacy. Ryu had come to his attention, but Oro needed more time before deciding that Ryu was to be his successor.
Street Fighter 3 Third Strike
Ryu fought his way through several challengers in the next tournament.
His most notable match was against Hugo. The lumbering giant was able to stand up to Ryu's most powerful attacks. Ryu was thoroughly impressed. He later agreed to be Hugo's tag team partner in a few wrestling matches.
Oro reportedly chose Ryu to be his successor. He began secretly aiding him in his training using his mental powers.
Ryu is a Japanese man in superb shape. He always wears a sleeveless karate gi. The fabric has gotten more worn as time goes by, suggesting that it is the same gi.
He always goes barefoot and wears a red head band (a keepsake from Ken to remind him to stay focused), and sparring arm pads. His belt is emblazoned with the kanji for "wind", "woods", "fire", and "mountain".
(This is a reference to Sun Tzu's The Art of War which states that in battle one should be, "as fast as the wind, as quiet as the forest, as daring as fire, and immovable as the mountain.")
Ryu is essentially the Japanese ideal of a true martial artist. He is humble and constantly training. He strives to both test and increase his skills, and is utterly dedicated to self improvement.
The temptation of the Satsui no Hado is not unlike the temptation of a darker power that many archetypal heroes must first overcome. In particular it seems to draw a lot of parallels with Luke Skywalker being tempted by the dark side of the Force.
Ryu's particular struggle is at heart Buddhist. Certain sects of Buddhism believe that in order for one to attain true enlightenment one must first destroy the false face or mask that one wears. Ryu's own personal struggle is to overcome his battle rage and lust for winning at all costs.
He struggles with this in his youth and most of his appearances, but in the end he does finally seem to overcome it.
"You did quite well, but you need more training to defeat me !"
"You must defeat my dragon punch to stand a chance !"
"I look forward to our next battle."
"You fought well. I was honored."
"True victory is to give all of yourself, without regret."
"Whatever you find worthwhile in life, is worth fighting for !"
"Your strength is equal to that of your will to win !"
"One fight. One more step on the path to becoming a true warrior !"
"The only way a true fighter can suffer, is by not fighting !"
"I see a strong will to fight in your eyes ! Don't give up yet !"
Rose: Ryu… you are not strong enough to win the battle with that man. Or should I say, you COULD win, but at the cost of your soul…"
Ryu: Who are you ? And who is "that man" ? Fight me now… and defeat me, if you can !"

SFA: Martial Artist: 11, Mind: 05, Spirit: 06.
During this period Ryu was being tempted by Satsui no Hado or the Way of the Killing Art. This basically functions like a Star Wars Jedi getting tempted by the Dark Side of the Force.
By the end of SF2 he's basically over it and much like Luke Skywalker, through hard work, training, and discipline he manages to get to that level without giving into the dark side.
Dark Ryu
Dark Ryu does exist as a playable character in SFA. But only as a "what if Ryu had given into the Satsui no Hado".
His stats would be the same as above, but he would gain Teleport: 03 and the Raging Demon attack. The Raging Demon is a devastating blindside attack performed by teleporting in blindsiding the opponent. Then hitting them with a devastating attack of Magic Blast: 12, lethal and range of touch only enhanced with Adrenaline Surge: 08 and maximum HP expenditure as well.
Ryu's Mind and Spirit enhancements aren't without their drawbacks. At 05 and 06 respectively and he gains Catastrophic Rage, MPI, losses all his Connections, his motivation also becomes Nihilist and his SIA rises to a CIA.
In Marvel versus Capcom he could also switch between Ken and Akuma's styles. His mystical and mental attributes would stay the same, but his powers, physical attributes and advantages would change to suit his new style. This ability is considered Seriously Marginal. It costs 15 HP and takes a full round every time he switches styles like that.
Versus series
The versus series enhanced most of the SF cast that it crossed over. Enough to make them capable of going toe to toe with Marvel's heavy hitters:
Adrenaline Surge can only work with Energy Blast, Jumping, and Martial Artist.
Ryu also gains a high connection to Iron Fist (Daniel Rand-K'ai).

The average retail price of vegetables in the Kathmandu Valley has dropped by up to 26 percent in just one week as demand continues to fall amid adequate production and supply. According to vegetable traders, the rainfall which greeted the Capital on Wednesday saw people opting to buy meat instead of vegetable, further decreasing prices.
Prices of vegetables like tomato big and small, cauliflower local and terai, green peas, sword beans, strings beans and green vegetables have decreased up to 26 percent while the retail prices of vegetable such as potato red and white, onion, cabbage, egg plant round and long, bottle gourd and broccoli have remained unchanged.
A trader at Balkhu Fruit and Vegetable Market expect vegetable prices to fall even lower. He explained that people prefer not to consume vegetables during the winter season, opting instead to buy meat, especially when it is rainy. According to Resham Tamang, administrator at Balkhu Fruit and Vegetable Market, prices of seasonal vegetables have decreased sharply after Dashain and Tihar this year compared to the same period last year.
The downfall in demand for vegetables during the winter season is the main reason for decreasing prices, he said. Vegetable demand has decreased as vegetables remains fresh for a longer period in winter, he added.
Manoj Dhital, senior marketing officer at Kalimati Fruits and Vegetable Market Development Board said that the price has decreased due to sufficient supply. He said that the price fluctuation of vegetables is normal depending on production, supply and demand of the vegetables.
The retail prices of tomato small and big have dropped by 13.33 and 22.22 percent respectively. Tomato small price is priced at Rs65 per kg while tomato big cost Rs35 per kg.
Similarly, cauliflower local and Terai price has fallen by 18.18 and 22.22 percent respectively. Cauliflower local is being sold at Rs45 per kg while cauliflower Terai priced at Rs35 per kg.
Likewise, the prices of potato red and white have held at Rs45 and Rs35 per kg. The price of onion was stable at Rs45 per kg.
Prices of off season vegetable such as bitter gourd, okra have gone up more by than Rs100 per kg as majority of such vegetables arrive from India, Tamang said.

Homelessness in the United States Research Paper
Updated: Oct 26th, 2018
Homelessness is a staid predicament in the United States and according to a recent research; there are approximately seven million homeless people in America. Furthermore, the subject of homelessness has remained a mounting concern within the United States of America.

Additionally, a variety of factors contributes to homelessness and they are deep within the makeup of the economy thus homelessness has remained an area of concern to the government , the social service providers and the policy makers because it prevails among many families and individuals.
As a result, the causes of homelessness, which are economic, social and physical, require great considerations as procedures towards abolition of homelessness focus on manipulation of the causes and impediment of homelessness genesis.
Economic issues are key factors in epidemiology of homelessness because they affect the ability of people to own houses. Additionally, economic issues like unemployment, low paying jobs, poverty and lack of affordable housing contributes to homelessness in the United States (Reeve 123). To begin with, unemployment is the gravest cause of homelessness because unemployed people lack funds to settle bills (Burt 65).
According to a study done, unemployed people could not own houses, apply for a housing voucher or obtain housing subsidies (Donohoe 48). This meant that unemployed people would remain homeless forever if the same situation prevailed. On the other hand, low-paying jobs facilitate homelessness because people would want to meet their physiological needs before attending to other needs (Burt 42).
As a result, a person with little income would spend most of his income if not all on food and clothing thus remaining with little money that cannot settle house rent. According to a survey conducted, approximately sixty percent of the homeless people were working yet they were still homeless (Reeve 145). Moreover, their average income was less than one hundred dollars per month, which was far much lower than poverty level (Daly 56).
This means that poverty which results from unemployment or underemployment is a contributing factor to homelessness because unemployed person cannot afford a house without financial assistance from the government (Haig 612). Finally, lack of affordable housing aggravates homelessness because people cannot live beyond their standards. For instance, in a research carried out in Boston, majority of the respondent did not have enough income to maintain an apartment (Donohoe 41).
In the latest survey, social factors that include substance abuse, domestic violence, social exclusion and lack of accessible health care smoothens the progress of homelessness (Haig 580). On the one hand, alcoholism contributes to unemployment, which is the chief cause of homelessness (Helvie 37).
This is because an alcoholic person is not motivated to look for a job and incase the person finds a job, he spend most of his income drinking (Daly 42). On the other hand, some alcoholics get money from illegal sources and they never become homeless (Polakow 67).
Additionally, substance abuse may result into domestic violence that leads to homelessness because the family members have to part ways and incase one does not have money, he will end up with no home (Donohoe 50). According to a recent research, social exclusion that also results from domestic violence increases the chances of homelessness in the society (Burt 54).
For instance, an alcoholic father who constantly abuses his wife and daughters can cause havoc that results into homelessness because the wife and the children may be forced to take refuge to places they do not understand (Burt 31). Finally, lack of accessible health care indirectly causes homelessness (Donohoe 58). For instance, people with chronic illness who cannot access health care due to either distance or affordability may not go to work resulting to unemployment and possible homelessness.
Physical factors are factors within an individual that limits someone from achieving his objectives (Donohoe 44). In this case, a problem with an individual's health, personal trait and education level contributes to homelessness (Daly 97). According to a study in United States, most of the mentally handicapped people were homeless because they could not get employment (Polakow 29).
Additionally, people with chronic diseases like cardiovascular diseases and diabetes reported that their health issues limited their mobility resulting into employment disruptions (Haig 626). On the contrary, another study reported that mental health issues were not risk factors for homelessness and in spite of some respondents feeling depressed prior to homelessness, they did not believe that mental illness contributed to homelessness (Kusmer 56).
Moreover, personal trait can also result into homelessness (Donohoe 59). For example, an aggressive person can misbehave and be imprisoned but ones he come out of jail, he may find it difficult to get an income source because people do not want to be associated with him and as a result, he ends up being homeless (Daly 51). On the other hand, lack of education adds to homelessness because of a variety of reasons.

To begin with, an illiterate person cannot find employment due to lack of the required knowledge (Haig 631). To add on this, uneducated person does not have any skills to set up a business. Finally, most of the illiterate people usually find pleasure in substance abuse (Helvie 61). As a result, illiteracy leads to unemployment that in turn results to homelessness.
The solutions needed to decrease homeless people in the streets of United States are the same ones needed to prevent the occurrence of homelessness (Helvie 41). Moreover, three major strategies in alleviating homelessness include making houses more affordable, comprehensive health care and paradigm shift (Daly 18).
People who are homeless usually report lack of affordable houses as their reason of being homeless. As a result, many organizations are in operation to satisfy this need through construction of affordable houses (Kusmer 34).
For instance, the National Law Income Housing Coalition has decreased the housing funds so that many people can afford it (Haig 567). On the other hand, the strategy of comprehensive health care involves enacting of legislation like Bringing American Home Act that will provide comprehensive and accessible treatment for all (Helvie 41).
Finally, the paradigm shift entails a shift from managing the problem of homelessness with emergency shelters to ending homelessness by housing the homeless people (Donohoe 23). Additionally, the united state has programs directed towards alleviation of homelessness and they include Shelter Plus Care, Housing First and Assertive Outreach.
Shelter Plus care is a program supported by local funds and it gives a person housing subsides. On the other hand, Housing First houses homeless people and give them financial support while Assertive Outreach emphasizes on building a coalition between house owners and individual so that house owners do not force harsh rules on tenants (Burt 24).
In conclusion, the causes of homelessness in United States revolve around each other and no cause can stand on its own. For example, economic, social and physical causes lead to unemployment; therefore, unemployment is the major cause of homelessness in the United States. As a result, creation of employment will alleviate homelessness.

//  - A 'main' promise dominates the others - it must complete before the
//    overall promise successfully completes. Its result is chosen in the event
//    of successful completion.
//  - A set of (optional) push and pull promises to aid main. Push promises are
//    polled before main, pull promises are polled after. In this way we can
//    avoid overall wakeup churn - sending a message will tend to push things
//    down the promise tree as its polled, so that send should be in a push
//    promise - then as the main promise is polled and it calls into things
//    lower in the stack they'll already see things there (this reasoning holds
//    for receiving things and the pull promises too!).
//  - Each push and pull promise is either necessary or optional.
//    Necessary promises must complete successfully before the overall promise
//    completes. Optional promises will just be cancelled once the main promise
//    completes and any necessary helpers.
//  - If any of the promises fail, the overall promise fails immediately.
// API:
//  This function, TryConcurrently, is used to create a TryConcurrently promise.
//  It takes a single argument, being the main promise. That promise also has
//  a set of methods for attaching push and pull promises. The act of attachment
//  returns a new TryConcurrently promise with previous contained promises moved
//  out.
//  The methods exposed:
//  - Push, NecessaryPush: attach a push promise (with the first variant being
//                         optional, the second necessary).
//  - Pull, NecessaryPull: attach a pull promise, with variants as above.
// Example:
//  TryConcurrently(call_next_filter(std::move(call_args)))
//     .Push(send_messages_promise)
//     .Pull(recv_messages_promise)

Conduct a pilot study of the effect of dietary fat type and amount on vitamin D3 absorption. LAB NAME: Vitamin K 1: To characterize dietary factors, including food composition and nutrient-nutrient interactions, and non-dietary factors, such as genetics, that contribute to the inter-individual variation in vitamin K intake, bioavailability, and utilization and vitamin K metabolite production. 1.1: To study the influence of foods and single nutrients on the distribution, bioavailability and function of different forms of vitamin K and their metabolites. 1.2: To measure key foods to monitor changes in the food supply that affect vitamin K content 1.3: Identify genetic factors involved in vitamin K metabolism. 2: Determine the role(s) and mechanism(s) of action for vitamin K beyond its essential role in coagulation, including the role of vitamin K in the prevention of abnormal non-skeletal calcification and the mechanisms of vitamin K action not currently explained by its role as an enzyme cofactor. 2.1: Determine the effects of vitamin K in the prevention of abnormal non-skeletal calcification and other chronic diseases in older adults. 2.2: Identify potential mechanism(s) of vitamin K action that are not currently explained by its role as an enzyme cofactor.
LAB Name: Bone Metabolism This laboratory uses a variety of approaches to carry out its clinical and translational research program, including cross-sectional and observational studies, randomized intervention trials, and small metabolic studies. This laboratory collaborates with the Nutrition, Exercise Physiology and Sarcopenia Laboratory to examine the impact of vitamin D and the acid-base balance of the diet on muscle performance and risk of falling. In collaboration with external laboratories, this laboratory seeks to determine the impact of vitamin D on risk of developing type 2 diabetes. These and other collaborations allow us access to basic research technologies, such as muscle tissue histology and gene array analysis, that enable us to identify mechanisms by which nutrients affect bone and muscle. LAB NAME: Vitamin K Our long-term objective is to study the determinants of vitamin K bioavailability, utilization, and metabolism in order to refine vitamin K intake recommendations. Expansion of the forms of vitamin K analyzed in a selected number of foods will enhance the USDA vitamin K database, and allow us to monitor changes in different forms of vitamin K in the food supply. To identify dietary and non-dietary factors that determine how much vitamin K obtained from foods is utilized, we will apply stable isotope techniques to established and novel measures of vitamin K metabolism. Data obtained from our completed metabolic study in younger and older adults, in addition to animal studies, have helped to refine the study designs that will be used in this project plan. We will initiate a series of studies that compare the metabolism of different forms of vitamin K, and identify the impact of other nutrients on different aspects of vitamin K metabolism. To expand our observations that vitamin K may have a role in the prevention of abnormal non-skeletal calcification, we will use observational data and biological samples collected from large on-going cohorts, as well as conduct animal studies, to examine potential mechanisms beyond that of an enzyme cofactor. We will then focus on the role(s) of different forms of vitamin K in insulin resistance and inflammation using a rodent model. This is a rapidly evolving field, and novel functions of vitamin K in other cells will be considered as new information becomes available.
