Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills Could Relocate to Austin, Texas

Several teams have moved to new cities in the last few years.
Have you noticed a lot of shifting in the NFL the last few years? Teams have moved the cities they've called home for decades to new ones. And these places didn't even have a pro team to begin with.
The Oakland Raiders moved to Las Vegas. The St Louis Rams moved to Los Angeles. The San Diego Chargers moved to Los Angeles as well. As someone who grew up in San Diego faithfully watching the Chargers lose over and over again, I felt so betrayed. In my mind, the Chargers don't even exist.
Could Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills be next?
AFC Championship - Buffalo Bills v Kansas City Chiefs

Recently there have been some rumblings about a move.
More specifically, the Bills owner Terry Pegula is threatening to move the team if he doesn't get what he wants. Sound familiar? It should. It's basically the same reason why those other teams moved too.
Pegula wants a new stadium, but won't shell out the money for it. Instead, he wants to city to pay for it. Which ultimately means that the taxpayers will pay for it.
I watched this same scenario play out in San Diego. When the city didn't comply to build a mega stadium to replace Qualcomm, Dean Spanos took the team and headed of "greener" pastures. In other words, a city that was willing to pay to play. Why he wanted to move to a city with another team already moving in, is beyond me.
And the same goes for Pegula.
Why would he want to sandwich his team in between two other NFL programs with the Cowboys in Dallas and the Texans in Houston? It seems a little crowded to me. Which is also the same viewpoint I have to the city of Austin... Crowded.

I'm not sure if you've ever been to Austin, but there's a lot going on. The campus of the University of Texas is scattered throughout the city. The stadium, while prominently placed next to a major interstate, is again in the middle of the city. I'm not sure where a big fancy stadium that Pegula wants would even go.
But, alas, I'm getting ahead of myself.
For all we know, the city will build a new home for the Bills. After all, Josh Allen almost took them to a Super Bowl las year. He has completely turned that program around and we couldn't be more proud here in the Cowboy State.
Just The Facts: Size Doesn't Matter For Wyoming's War Memorial Stadium
Did you know it would take the populations of Gillette (32,857), Laramie (32,381), Rock Springs (23,319), Sheridan (17,844) and Wright (1,200) to create a sellout inside Michigan's famed 107,601-seat Big House, the largest college football stadium in the nation?
For those of you not familiar with the Cowboy State, those are Wyoming's third through sixth most inhabited cities, along with the small mining town in Campbell County.
How Many Medals Have Wyoming-Born Athletes Won at the Olympics?
Wyoming isn't represented on Team USA for the 2020 (in 2021) Olympics in Tokyo. But, athletes born in Wyoming have competed for the gold a handful of times over the last century.
According to the folks at BeenVerified.com, seven Wyoming-born Olympians have competed on the world's largest stage.
Since the 1932 LA games, these competitors earned four Olympic medals; one gold, two silver, and a bronze. Wrestling, Track and Field, and Rowing are the evens where Wyoming-natives have shined.
Wyoming Towns And The Star Wars Characters They Remind Of Us
Every May, millions around the world celebrate Star Wars Day. To get in on the fun, here's our comparison of several favorite Star Wars characters and the Wyoming towns that remind us of them.

I think that you know Apple's next major mobile operating system of iOS 9 is going to be release on September 2015. We know that nowadays all Apple friends are flying about iOS 9 review and especially they try to find new features of iOS 9. However as Apple's some status, users can download iOS 9 on their iPhone, iPad or iPod touch so soon. Among the iOS 9 beta collection, five beta versions are currently available to download for idevices with introducing new features. As I mentioned that all cydia lovers are trying to find the new features of iOS 9 download. So we hope to bring instructions about new features which are expecting on iOS 9.
When you connect your iPhone to your car using Bluetooth, iOS 9 operating system make suggestions for your common task while you driving on the way. If you always listen music when you driving your car, playlist or playback controls will de display on the lock screen.
I know all users like to download brand new games on their idevices. They are always hoping to download uncommon amazing games. Apple recollected which games most like to play you like Clash of Clans every morning, provide lock screen notification, replace your apps in multitasking view and more.
I think Apple will not to forget to include Siri on iOS 9. Siri is the useful feature that let to quickly connect for search apps, finding contacts, news on iPhone or iPad. Siri also let to search wide rage topics, understand what are you accurately saying and faster searching.
Do you remember that few months earlier, TaiG's CEO has posted an announcement that they are going to release iOS 9 jailbreak tool behind the iOS 9 releasing. iOS 9 will be release on September 2015 as Apple's statements. Apple's final updated mobile operating system is iOS 8.4 and it also jailbroken by TaiG in nearly day. As some reviewers are saying that sometimes iOS 9 jailbreak tool will be release by TaiG. However I think that you will remember that the main security feature of Rootless witch is hoping on iOS 9. We are seeing that who will be break the Rootless.


dude it's psykovski ³ ... no seriously it's nowhere near not for fame. it's in the same style as the track on nritya shastra .... it's fast highly psychedelic and even beatiful .... the best piece of music I have ever heard !!!
don't ever buy a cdj 800 !!! it's pitch resolutions is only 0.05% wich is not precise enough ... => if scratching is a must buy a cdj 1000 in all other cases don't hesitate and buy the cdj 200 !!!!
aiight, it's allmost there ... Lot's of new tracks I see ... Good luck !!
no complaints about moderators but is it possible to increase the amount of pm's one can store ?

\section{Introduction}
\par Evolutionary Algorithms are an randomized searching approach based on
Darwin's evolutionary theory. They play an important role in many
fields such as optimization, control, game strategies, machine
learning, and engineering design etc.
\par In 1984, David Schaffer introduced Vector Evaluated Genetic Algorithm (VEGA)\cite{1749,1750} to solve Multi-objective
Optimization Problems(MOPs). Henceforth, the research on Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithms(MOEAs) attracted more
and more researchers. Up to now tens of MOEAs have been proposed.

To guide the efforts on MOEAs, some researchers tried to build unified models for popular MOEAs. For examples, Macro
Laumanns et al.\cite{1752} proposed a unified model for the Pareto-based and elitist MOEAs in 2000. This model can
describe most popular famous MOEAs, such as Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II(NSGA-II\cite{549}, Strength
Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm and its improvement(SPEA/SPEA2)\cite{587}, Pareto Archived Evolution
Strategy(PAES)\cite{1751} and so on. \cite{519} expressed the schema of MOEAs which employ archive with such a formula as follows: \\
\centerline{ MOEA = Archive + Generator} \\But this formula is quite simple. Recently, more and more MOEAs can not be
accurately described by these models, such as Adaptive Grid Algorithm (AGA)\cite{563},Rank-Density based Genetic
Algorithm (RDGA)\cite{558}, Geometrical Pareto Selection (GPS)\cite{1753,4028} and GUIDED \cite{4056} etc.

In this paper, we propose a new model to describe the advanced MOEAs. In section 2,the model is introduced . And then
SPEA\cite{587} ,AGA\cite{563} and GPS \cite{1753,4028} are decomposed in section 3 according to this model. Some
interesting issues are discussed in section 4. In section 5, some conclusions are made.
\section{Introduction to the New Model}
The first MOEA -- VEGA -- is a non-Pareto algorithm. Subsequently, Goldberg D. E. \cite{2406} proposed to use Pareto
dominance to compute the fitness of the individuals based on 'Ranking' method. Subsequent experiments prove that  Pareto
dominance based MOEAs are more efficient than non-Pareto MOEAs. Since the work of Zitzler et al.\cite{587}, the 'elitism' of MOEAs
has been recognized: Elitism of MOEAs is especially beneficial in deal with MOPs and the use of elitism can speed up the
convergence to the Pareto front.
the Pareto based MOEAs with elitism is more efficient than the MOEAs without elitism. To implement
the elitism, many MOEAs use a secondary 'elitist' population ,i.e., the archive, to store the elite individuals.
According to MOEAs' formula, the pseudocode of common elitist MOEAs with archive can be depicted as Figure
\ref{fig.pseudocode}:
\begin{center}
\begin{figure}[!htbp]
\textbf{\noindent 1 initialize the population and archive \\
2 evaluate the population \\
3 while the termination criterions have not been reached do \\
4 \ \ \ \ generate a solution by the generator \\
5 \ \ \ \ evaluate the new solution            \\
6 \ \ \ \ try to update the archive\\
7 \ \ \ \ according to the feedback of archive, try to update the population \\
8 end while }
 \caption{Pseudocode for Generic MOEAs with Archive} \label{fig.pseudocode}
\end{figure}
\end{center}

The pseudocode seemly does not mention the generation gap methods. Actually, the generation gap methods can be
decomposed into this model, if we see the generation number and the replaced parent individuals as the additional
parameters. Moreover, though Single-Objective Evolutionary Algorithms(SOEAs) and MOEAs are very similar, there still
are three major differences:
\begin{enumerate}
  \item Different to single-objective optimization, the generator of MOEAs may crossover some
individuals in population with the individuals in population or archive
  \item the fitness assignment is more
complicated, because it is relative to two operators: fitness evaluation for the archive and fitness evaluation for the
population
  \item As to the elitism,  the SOEAs just keeps only one fittest individual. But in MOEAs, the elitism, commonly, the strategy to update
  the archive is quiet complicated.
\end{enumerate}

In general, the new model can be depicted as Figure \ref{fig.framework}:\\

\begin{figure}[!htbp]
\centering{\includegraphics [width=3.864in,height=1.75in]{framework.eps} \caption{The Model of Elitism MOEAs with
Archive} \label{fig.framework} }
\end{figure}

In Figure \ref{fig.framework}, updating the archive would retrieve information from the archive, so the link is not
drawn in this framework. Moreover, the generator is similar to the generating process of SOEA. Actually, except the
selection operators, they both are same. It can be depicted as Figure \ref{fig.NewIndi}.

\begin{figure}[!htbp]
\centering{\includegraphics [width=10.7424cm,height=4.5576cm]{NewIndi.eps} \caption{The Framework for the Generator}
\label{fig.NewIndi} }
\end{figure}

Secondly, the strategy of updating the archive is different to SOEA and very complicated.

Very many MOEAs employ the ranking-alike operators and the niching-alike operators. In such a schema, ranking-alike
operators are firstly employed to eliminate the dominated solutions and secondly niching-alike operators are employed
to eliminate the crowded solutions. But unfortunately, this kind of MOEAs are not convergent\cite{2479} because of
fitness deterioration. The schema of ranking-alike and niching-alike MOEAs(RN\_MOEA) could be depicted as Figure
\ref{fig.rankniche}.

\begin{figure}[htbp]
\centering{\includegraphics [width=3.504in,height=1.842in]{common.eps} \caption{The Ranking-alike and Niching-alike
Schema} \label{fig.rankniche} }
\end{figure}

Actually, except this schema, there exists another schema. We call it 'the sampling schema'. In this schema, the
feasible solution space (includes Pareto optimal front) is divided into grids in advance, when new solution is
generated and evaluated, the algorithm firstly computes its coordinate in the grids and compare it with the
individual(s) in the right coordinate. Whether updating the archive with the new solution or not just depends on the
comparison. Obviously, this kind of methods are very different to ranking-alike and niching-alike methods, they use
'local dominance' instead of 'global dominance', and therefore hold lower time complexity. Some of them do not
eliminate the dominated solutions from the archive in the main loop of algorithm, so additional operation(eliminating
operator) should be employed after the main loop to cut the dominated solutions off from the archive. But if the
archive should only store nondominated solutions, the eliminating operator should be integrated into the main loop. As
to the diversity of Pareto optimal front, it depends only on the generator, because the span of cells in the grids has
been predefined, may adaptively. The schema of sampling MOEAs(SA\_MOEA) can be depicted as Figure \ref{fig.sampling}.

\begin{figure}[htbp]
\centering{\includegraphics [width=3.704in,height=1.576in]{sampling.eps} \caption{The Sampling Schema}
\label{fig.sampling} }
\end{figure}

\section{Decomposing Existing MOEAs}
In this section, we will use SPEA , AGA and GPS to show how to decompose the existing algorithms.
\subsection{SPEA}
As to SPEA, it is a classical RN\_MOEA. SPEA's mating selection process is a typical selection operator which uses
archive and population. clustering method actually is an operator to keep diversity,i.e., niching-alike operator.
Moreover, the truncate and update function can be seen as the strategies to update the archive and population.
\subsection{AGA}
Actually, AGA\cite{563} is a typical archiving algorithm. It must combine a generator to become MOEAs. AGA employ a
nondominated vectors archive, so it employs \textbf{Is\_Dominated} function and \textbf{Dominates} function to
eliminate the dominated solutions. Moreover, AGA uses adaptive grids, that is, the boundaries should be extended or
reduced. However, in spite of these details, AGA samples the feasible solution space in essence.
\textbf{Reduce\_Crowding} function, \textbf{Steady\_State} function and \textbf{Fill} function actually perform the
comparison and replacement.
\subsection{GPS}
GPS is also an archiving algorithm. It employs the \textbf{Location} operator to retrieve the right solutions which
will be used to compare with the new solution, employs \textbf{Comparison} operator to perform the comparison, and at
last employs the \textbf{Steady\_State} operator to update the archive with the new solution if the new solution is
better than the original solution in the archive. Moreover, the archive of GPS may store the dominated solution, only
when the main loop ends, an additional operation is used to eliminate the dominated solutions.

\section{Some Important Issues}
According to the model, there are two kinds of archiving algorithms. Based on different schema, MOEAs would behave
differently, and they would have different properties.

\subsection{Performance Measure}
The convergence property is very important to MOEAs. It would theoretically determine the approximation degree to the true Pareto front.
But good diversity would be very helpful of the decision-maker. That is, MOEAs had better converge with diversity. So the performance measure
should take both the convergence and diversity into considerations.

AGA has been proved convergent with well-distributed solutions under certain strict conditions. GPS also converges to
Ray-Pareto optimal front. In contrast to SA\_MOEAs, the RN\_MOEAs do not converge. Furthermore, the SA\_MOEAs could be
improved to converge to true Pareto front under certain conditions.

The complexity of MOEAs would be another aspect of performance measure. If two multi-objective approaches have different
archivers, their average performance may differ\cite{519}. Because of ranking method, the time complexity of RN\_MOEAs would be greater than or equal to
$O(MN)$ where computing one new individual, here M is the number of objectives, N is the size of population(or archive).
As to AGA and GPS, the time complexity is $O(M)$. Niching-alike operators often hold a space complexity of $O(N^2)$. But AGA's is $O(N^M)$, GPS's is $O(N)$
at the best situation,$O(N^{M-1})$ at the worst situation. Furthermore, we can reduce GPS's space complexity to $O(N)$ by
using binary tree with an additional average
time complexity of $O(Nlog_{2}N)$.

\subsection{Cooperation between Generator and Archive}
In this model, the generator should cooperate with archive to control the evolving directions. Therefore, considering
to deal with difficult objective functions, 'local search' may be used to exploit.  As to the archive of SA\_MOEAs, 'local
dominance' is useful to reduce the time complexity. 'local search' and 'local dominance' are different concepts.

The evolving directions of the population are multi-objective. In one hand, the selection pressure should make the
individuals evolving toward the true Pareto front, i.e., depth-first search. In the other hand, the selection pressure
should make the individuals spread over the whole Pareto front, i.e., width-first search. How to deal with the conflict
between depth-first search and width-first search is still lack of delicate research. As to SA\_MOEAs, because of local dominance,
the feedback of archive just provide information for depth-first search, less for width-first search.

\subsection{Taxonomy}
Based the proposed model, we suggest that MOEAs could be categorized into four classes:
\begin{enumerate}
  \item Non-Pareto MOEAs\\
The representative MOEA is VEGA\cite{1749,1750}. This algorithm employs multiple sub-populations to optimize every
single objective separately. This algorithm often converge to special points which often are not Pareto Optimal points,
moreover, the diversity is not taken into consideration.
  \item Pareto MOEAs (without Elitism)\\
  The representative MOEAs include Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) \cite{3063},  Niched Pareto Genetic
    Algorithm (NPGA) \cite{2519,2410} and Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA)\cite{3440}. These algorithms
    employ some strategies to maintain the diversity, but approximation is not good enough.
    \item Pareto MOEAs with Elitism \\
The representative MOEAs include NSGA-II\cite{549} , Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm and its
improvement(SPEA/SPEA2)\cite{587}. These algorithms employ elitism strategy to maintain good approximation. But these
algorithms are not convergent.
  \item Convergent MOEAs\\
Actually, the archiving algorithms determine the convergence property of MOEAs. The representative algorithms
  include Adaptive Grid Algorithm (AGA) \cite{563}, GPS \cite{1753,4028}. These algorithms should converge/pseudoconverge under certain conditions.
\end{enumerate}

\section{Conclusions and Future Work}
The proposed model is intended to understand the-state-of-the-art MOEAs and provides a more systematic approach to design more efficient and more customized
MOEAs for researchers and possible users.

Our model implies that the ranking-alike and niching-alike schema is very different to the sampling schema,though they both may use archive
to store elitist solutions.

In contrast to the previous unified models, the new model can describe the-state-of-the-art MOEAs more accurately and be more atomic. So it is more
convenient to use this model for the analysis of the algorithms.

This model provide us many cues to improve the MOEAs, such as the relationship between 'local search' and 'local dominance', the relationship between
evaluation operation and re-evaluation operator and the relationship between depth-first search and width-search etc.  The future work would try to
discover more principles and develop new operators based on this model.

I found this absolutely ridiculously amusing site, by way of Kotaku. It's called The Video Game Name Generator, and you need to go check it out. Some of them aren't that great, but I just created a new name, "Orbital Bubblegum Caper," and "Colonial Casino Inspector," so I'm happy.


Reading over the letter to my mother, I am so absorbed in my head with adding the true statements to my written words that I fail to pay attention to the street. I cannot decide which shocks me more--nearly being run over by the horse-drawn cart, or the fluid stream of cursing in my native tongue that is being directed at me.
I'm super excited to read this book. It's been on my shelf for a very long time. I have loved the cover for years, but never seemed to have time to read this one. The time is now! I also love the the way it starts off. If that didn't grab my attention not much will.
What are your thoughts? Have you read this one?

Peter Mansbridge looks back on the life and times of one of his heroes: Michael Maclear. The legendary foreign correspondent gave Canadians an up-close view of many of the most important events of the 20th century. He passed away on Christmas Day at age 89.
"There are those who never leave the newsroom to get their information, and then there are those who can't get out of the newsroom fast enough."
No one ever needed to explain that to Michael Maclear.
A famous photo of the Cuban Revolution shows Fidel Castro entering Havana in early January 1959, after ousting the corrupt regime of Fulgencio Batista. Castro is front and centre atop an old Batista tank making its way through the cheering crowds. But look a little closer and you will also see a young journalist almost right beside Castro, capturing the story for CBC Radio and CBC Television. Years later, some of us used to joke: "Who's that guy next to Maclear?"
Michael wasn't quite 30 when he reported that story for Canadians and, by extension, the world. It was the first of a series of journalistic coups that would make him an icon of the profession.
Among his long list of accomplishments, he covered the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia, the Cultural Revolution in China and then set his sights on Southeast Asia.
Ten years after his tank ride with Castro, he was covering the Vietnam War, determined to look beyond what other Western journalists were seeing. With all his colleagues lined up for the daily press briefings from the U.S. military in Saigon, Michael managed to get himself and his CBC cameraman into Hanoi, the capital of North Vietnam, while American B-52 bombers were blasting the city.
He was the first Western journalist to see the war from "the other side." The footage and the reporting were so devastating that some U.S. officials, and sadly some U.S. journalists, openly questioned whether Maclear was on the side of the Viet Cong.
From interviewing Fidel Castro to reporting on the Vietnam War, here are some highlights from CBC journalist Michael Maclear's career.
His passion for the Vietnam story fuelled one of his many signature feats. After a stint with CTV News, he began work on his epic, 26-part documentary series, Vietnam: The Ten Thousand Day War.
Broadcast in 1980, it was the first television history of a war that had caused such upheaval in so many countries. It aired in Canada, the U.S. and Great Britain to audiences hungry to understand the war, including why it started and why it led to such a powerful anti-war movement, especially in the U.S.
"The great advantage for the reporter today is immediacy, instant access and on-air exposure [from anywhere]. The disadvantage is that [can] tie you to the home desk all the time, 24-7. And the further disadvantage is there is less original work going into reports, in some cases, than there was in the old days."
Michael Maclear was 89 when he passed away peacefully at his home late on Christmas Day.
He spent a lifetime standing for great journalism, great storytelling and always for the truth. We can and should pay attention to his legacy now more than ever.
None of us will live forever, but Michael's journalism will and we will always be indebted to him for that. His work was — and is — brilliant. All these years later, there is still the magic of the reporter who left the newsroom to be there. For us.
Years ago, a friend asked me to write a nomination for Michael to receive the Order of Canada, the country's highest civilian decoration.
At first, I was stunned that Michael hadn't already received the honour. And then I sat down to write about him.
Watch Michael Maclear's report from Hiroshima's "atomic hospital" in 1960 — 15 years after the U.S. dropped a nuclear bomb on the city.
Peter Mansbridge is the former chief correspondent of CBC News and Distinguished Fellow, Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy.

Once you get down into the gorge, one side of it is this creek which is only accessible as a swim through / kayaks, the other side has a famous waterfall (which was quite dry when we were there).
The scramble down into this gorge was the scariest of the gorges we went to. At least for someone like me, who has a bit of a fear of heights.

Binance Expands Operations By Launching Its First Fiat-Crypto Exchange In Uganda
CEO and founder of Binance, Changpeng Zhao announced that the major international fiat-to-crypto exchange will open in Uganda this week, the company reveals Monday, Oct. 15.
The press release states that the branch will soon start accepting deposits and withdrawals of Ugandan shillings and continues to say that Binance Uganda has already begun its know-your-customer (KYC) procedures.
Uganda has shown interest in the recent past about transactions and investing in cryptocurrencies, however, Bank of Uganda had earlier issued a warning to investors about cryptocurrency risks in March of 2017.
Binance, who sees almost $1.8 billion in trades on the day to press time, is the largest international crypto exchange by 24-hour adjusted trading volume. Therefore the move to Uganda isn't a surprising feat and according to cointelegraph.com – "Binance's CFO Wei Zhou says that company's first fiat-to-crypto exchange in Uganda will help maintain sustainable economic stability in Africa, noting that the company plans to bring more innovations to the region."
In addition to this, Binance has started private beta testing of a fiat-to-crypto exchange in Singapore, which will presumably support the Singapore dollar.

UK Power Networks is taking innovative steps to create the country's first smart charging market for electric vehicle (EV) drivers. Following on from our SmartCAR project, we are now launching trials that will test and develop different approaches to EV smart charging as part of an innovation project called "Shift" focussed on domestic smart charging.
In this project we will seek to stimulate the market-led development of smart charging solutions – working with market participants to develop, enable and trial customer propositions for electric vehicles; develop processes, proof-of-concept systems and commercial arrangements to enable these propositions; and ultimately seek to understand customer response to these propositions and the associated network impacts in a controlled environment.
Be an associated organisation with a proposal to deliver key parts of the smart charging value chain as part of a broader consortium.
A short template to complete to express interest in participating in the Shift trials.
Following receipt of responses we will assess which best fit the project requirements and select a number of participants to take part in delivery of the trials. We are not running this as a formal procurement process, but more an opportunity to understand what participants may have to offer in order to best meet the trials objectives.
As a Network Innovation Allowance funded project we will not be funding participants for their participation in the trials, and are seeking participants who are prepared to invest time and effort in return for the opportunity to take a market-leading role in the development of capabilities to support the future market.


Dawn Ravenell was only 13 years old when she found herself living her worst nightmare. Scared and pregnant, she decided she could not tell her parents, both Pentecostal ministers, about her baby. Dawn was so terrified of their possible reaction to this news that she decided to proceed with an abortion at Eastern Women's Center in New York City on Jan. 24, 1985, without telling anyone.
The procedure was disastrous from the start. Within the first five minutes of the abortion, Dawn began to vomit and choke. Allen Klein, the doctor who commuted from Philadelphia to perform the abortion, inserted a breathing tube into her windpipe and moved her into a recovery room. Left unattended, Dawn once again began to choke and suffered a massive heart attack. By the time a staff member checked on her condition, Dawn had already slipped into a fatal coma. She died at a nearby hospital three weeks later, without regaining consciousness.
Dawn's parents were notified about their daughter's pregnancy and tragic abortion when it was too late. She was already comatose. Trying to understand why her daughter did not choose to confide in her, Ruth Ravenell said, "I think that she felt that for me to see her as less than perfect would have been too much." She never got to make peace with her little girl.
Ruth and her husband successfully sued Klein and Eastern Women's Center over Dawn's death. In December 1990, a Manhattan jury awarded them $1.2 million in compensatory damages. Since then, the Ravenells have become advocates for parental notification and consent laws, testifying before various state legislatures. Klein went on to work at a Pensacola, Fla., abortion clinic, where he was hailed as a hero.

Roster News
Lewis turns to Lazor again
Head coach Marvin Lewis has enough faith in Bill Lazor that for the second time in four months he's handed him a huge assignment.
Lewis gave him the offensive coordinator's job for good Wednesday after Lazor impressed him with an on-the-fly effort following his battlefield promotion just two games and five days into a season the Bengals didn't have a touchdown.
Despite not having the luxury of OTAs and training camp, his own staff, or his structure, Lewis watched Lazor steer Andy Dalton to 25 TD passes and just eight interceptions in his 14 games as the OC, the fourth most TDs in the NFL in that stretch. The Bengals also finished the season with two of their three best rushing games of the year behind a rehabbed line with top five numbers and put up 349 yards and 24 points against a top ten defense vying for the postseason Sunday in Baltimore.
Lazor, 45, is now entrusted with digging out the Bengals from the No. 32 ranking in the NFL, erasing the worst running attack in the 50 seasons of the team, and resurrecting the confidence of the franchise quarterback.
And Lewis, who has high regard for Lazor's Dan Reeves-Joe-Gibbs-Chip Kelly pedigree, has confidence in him.
"He's very comfortable with how I see it," Lewis said of Lazor on Tuesday. "We basically wasted the 2,000 snaps of OTAs and training camp because it was through another man's eyes. When Bill took over, Bill was able to try and work through things that had been already done without trying to slow our players down. He tried to work in the constraints of the way things were and the things that had been installed."
Now the question is if Lewis and Lazor make changes to the staff.
But Lewis is clear on what he wants the 2018 offensive staff to improve:
"Up front and we have to improve the play of our quarterback and get him back to being comfortable and get him back to be the Andy Dalton we know day in and day out."
He seems to have confidence of the players reached Tuesday.
"I thought he called some good games late in the season, especially when the line got re-shuffled," said left guard Clint Boling. "I think he's got a pretty good idea how to use Andy."
Some players like how Lazor plays to Dalton's strength with an up tempo pace and giving him run-pass options at the line of scrimmage while getting playmakers like running backs Giovani Bernard and Joe Mixon, and wide receiver A.J. Green to the edge.
Bernard had some big moments under Lazor. There was the 61-yard-walk-in screen pass for a TD in Cleveland, the game against Chicago he was their leading rusher (62 yards) and receiver (68), the 168 yards running and receiving against Detroit, and the 4.7 yards per 71 carries in the last five games after rookie running back Joe Mixon went down in the second quarter against Pittsburgh.
"He's a good guy and I thought he did well coming into the job during the season," Bernard said. "That had to be tough. It really wasn't his stuff, but he found a way to make some things work. He's the kind of guy you can go up and talk to about stuff. He's approachable."
Mixon Holds Second Annual Football Camp
Joe Mixon's football camp was held at his high school in California.

Fans interested in attending every Bengals home game this season have a new option. The $200 mobile-only Jungle Pass includes tickets to 10 Bengals games, eight in the regular season and two in the preseason.
Scrutiny is mandatory for offense
Just the presence of the very large Cordy Glenn at left tackle at Tuesday's start of mandatory minicamp is evidence of the effort to shore up the offense since he arrived via trade for a first-rounder. But the hopes of a little-used role player also reflect how this offense may be changed by as much philosophy as looks. Remember Ryan Hewitt, the forgotten fullback?

city of industry speedway
by Cormaci Devid
With one day of training, a well-trained mechanic can take care of your car, and the following week he or she can do it again. With the help of the Internet, there are hundreds of thousands of people in the car repair community who can help you with car repairs.
Speedway is a game for people who want to make their own cars, and this is one of the most popular game types. So how can you make your own cars? A lot of people build their own cars, though, so you can get good at it. There are a few places to make your own cars, and many people are happy to let you borrow their cars.
The people who make their own car are called engine builders. So if you want to get good at your own car, you need to get good at building your own cars. Speedway takes the same idea and applies it to making your own cars. You build your own car, and then you play the game. The game has so many things to do, and the people on the game have so many things to do, that the game is a lot of fun.
That's the key difference between the game and the real world. In order to drive a car in the real world, you would have to know how to drive it, and you would have to be able to memorize how to do a few things. In order to make your own car, you only have to make a few minor changes and learn how to drive it.
City of Industry speedway has such a short play time, so you really can't do much with it, yet the game keeps things interesting. You drive a car and it does things. You watch other cars do things. It's a lot of fun, but the game is so short that you can play it for a while.
the game uses a rather simple mechanics to make it interesting, but it is not without its flaws. In order to play, you have to learn how to do a few things. In order to drive the car, you have to learn a few things. Because it is not a simple game, it may not be the best driving game ever. The game is more about learning to drive a car than it is about using a car.
Like the others, city of industry speedway is very much about learning to drive a car. You have to learn the basics of steering, acceleration, braking, and the like. I would like to see more cars in the game. Some cars do stuff that are awesome, but they are not that much fun to play. On the other hand, some cars are fun to drive. Driving a car is fun, but it doesn't need to dominate the game.
This is a game that is about driving. Yes, the other car does the same thing. But you can also drive a car that is a lot more fun to drive because you can do some crazy stunts and tricks with it. I love speed up racing but i can put a lot of fun in it.
I have not played the game since it was released in 2002, but I did play the original, Streets of Rage. I cannot recall an instance when I was entertained, but it is fun to play. I have played a number of games since then, but I have not played city of industry speedway. I can only think of a few games that have been much more fun than it.
Streets of Rage was a game that I was able to play for hours, literally. It was so much fun and I think the city of industry speedway, is just as good. The fact that they are both so much fun and so different is what makes them so great.

Four Facts about the Fourth on the Fourth
Four Awesomely Interesting Independence Day Facts:
Did you know that there have been 28 versions of the U.S flag to date, and that the most recent one, designed after Alaska and Hawaii joined the union, was the result of a school project? Robert Heft was 17 when he came up with the flag design in 1958. He originally got a B- on the project, but when his pattern won the national competition to become the next flag, his teacher raised his grade to an A.
Three American presidents have died on the fourth of July. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams died on the same day, in 1826. They had been rivals in everything, even about who would live longest. Adams' last words were about his long-time foe: "Thomas Jefferson lives!" In fact, Jefferson had died just five hours earlier, but Adams hadn't gotten the message. The two actually became friends in their later years, with extensive correspondence. Their letters to each other are published in several books.James Monroe is the third president to die on July 4th, but he died in 1831.
Fireworks and parades have long-since been a staple in Independence Day celebrations. In that same John Adams letter about celebrating on July 2nd, he wrote that the day:"Ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more."
And so colonists celebrated the fourth even before they knew if they would win the war, setting off fireworks July 4th, 1777. Fireworks were further popularized in the late 1700s by politicians that had displays at their speeches, and they became a firmly established tradition by the 1800s.
The Declaration of Independence was announced on July 4th, though the formal signing didn't occur until August 2nd, and the colonies actually voted to accept it on July 2nd. So you may wonder – what day is the real Independence Day?John Adams, who first proposed the idea of declaring independence from England, wrote a famous letter to his wife, Abigail, about how he believed July 2nd would be a day that was remembered and celebrated in America for years to come. Apparently everyone else remembered otherwise…
History sure is interesting.
Be safe celebrating America today…and thank you to our past and present military servicemembers for being the reason we are celebrating!

Hallmark Channel delivered a sentiment very different from the ones found in its parent company's greeting cards when its executives questioned an ad showing two women getting married — and barred the commercial from running on its schedule.
Zola, a company that offers online wedding registries and wedding planning services, had been running commercials in recent days that feature a lesbian couple contemplating whether their wedding might have gone better if they had used Zola's products. A spokeswoman for Zola said the company would remove all of its advertising from Hallmark "for the forseeable future" after being informed by the network that it would stop running commercials from Zola featuring a same-sex couple that had already appeared on the cable network.
In a statement made to The New York Times, a spokesperson for Hallmark said the women's public displays of affection violated the cable outlet's standards. Another Zola advertisement featuring a heterosexual couple engaged in similar displays was not rejected.
The move has generated criticism. "The Hallmark Channel's decision to remove LGBTQ families in such a blatant way is discriminatory and especially hypocritical coming from a network that claims to present family programming," said Sarah Kate Ellis, president and CEO of GLAAD, in a statement.
The ads had already sparked a stir at Hallmark before they were taken off the air. One Million Moms, an advocacy organization that says it fights against indecency, had started an effort to get Hallmark to remove the spot, which began in rotation on Hallmark earlier this month. The group is affiliated with the American Family Association, a group that has for decades threatened media outlets with possible boycotts over controversial content. The organization was vocal, for example, about the use of partial nudity in the ABC series "NYPD Blue" when it launched in 1993, and, more recently, protested the 2012 depiction of a same-sex marriage in a storyline in Archie Comics.
"All kisses, couples and marriages are equal celebrations of love and we will no longer be advertising on Hallmark," said Mike Chi, Zola's chief marketing officer, in a statement.
The contretemps surfaces during one of Hallmark Channel's most lucrative times of year. The network has developed a specialty in holiday programming, and its schedule around Christmas is jammed with sentimental movies such as "Christmas at Dollywood," a drama starring Danica McKellar, Niall Matter and Dolly Parton in a story about an event planner trying to organize Christmas at Parton's famous theme park, and "Naughty or Nice," a film led by Hilarie Burton, Michael Gross and Meredith Baxter.
Other cable networks have tried to muscle in on the holiday-programming market — and sell advertising packages around it. Walt Disney's Freeform each year runs family-friendly movies in December, and AMC Networks has expanded its "Best Christmas Ever" holiday schedule to all of its cable outlets, including AMC and IFC. Zola may have other options.
Indeed, Freeform took to Twitter Saturday evening to tell Zola it would be happy to run its commercials. "Call us, @Zola. We celebrate the holidays with everyone," read a post from the cable network.
This is what happens when you focus all your energy on exclusion instead of clever plotlines. Call us, @Zola. We celebrate the holidays with everyone. https://t.co/YREKYbhgrv

TV networks regularly rush to take in holiday advertising, but Zola's ad is the second in recent weeks to spark debate. A holiday commercial from Peloton, the online fitness company, launched criticism after some consumers took to social media to complain about the ad. Critics suggested the commercial, which depicted a fit woman using a Peloton bike her husband gave her as a gift, was being placed under pressure by her spouse to stay trim.
Both Zola and Peloton hail from a rising category of advertising that has its roots in online commerce. So-called "direct to consumer" marketers gained business traction by using digital advertising to identify the customers most likely to purchase their goods and services. In recent months, however, advertisers ranging from Warby Parker to Wayfair have made their way to TV, where advertisers tend to craft appeals to broader audiences rather than narrower demographics. The new advertisers are eager to use TV to broaden their customer base, but may have to learn to create commercials that do the same.

It's against the law for elves and humans to fall in love. But laws can be broken. When Venick is caught wandering the elflands, he knows the penalty is death. Desperate, he lies about his identity in hopes the elves will spare his life.  Ellina doesn't trust the human, and not merely because he speaks the language of men. Men lie. In elvish, however, lying is impossible. In a moment of intuition, Ellina decides to give Venick a chance: learn elvish, reveal his truths, and she will set him free. That is not, of course, what happens. As Ellina and Venick come to know each other, their feelings start to shift. Then Venick uncovers a dark secret, and suddenly the fate of the elflands seems to rest in his hands. But every choice comes with consequences, and Venick must decide if it's worth risking his life to protect a race that hates him, all to save an elf he's not allowed to love.

CLEVELAND – July 10, 2013 – Oswald Companies, one of the largest independently owned insurance brokerage and consulting firms in the U.S., is proud to offer its clients the next generation of health screenings through a strategic partnership with Cleveland HeartLab, Inc.
Cleveland HeartLab, a spin-off from the Cleveland Clinic founded in 2009, offers a group of simple, inexpensive blood tests designed to assess "true" cardiovascular risk through Inflammation Testing (also known as IT).
About 50 percent of heart attacks and strokes occur in people with "normal" cholesterol, leaving many patients without a complete assessment of their cardiovascular risk. Inflammation Testing goes beyond basic risk identification markers, such as blood pressure and standard cholesterol testing, to identify what actually causes heart attack or stroke – inflammation – or specifically, vulnerable plaque related to increased inflammation.
This offering represents Oswald's ongoing commitment to bring unique risk control services to employers. It will help prevent occupational and non-occupational claims, while increasing productivity, health and vitality.
Cleveland HeartLab's proprietary inflammation panel, in addition to some of the standard testing used in the corporate wellness setting, can offer early detection and prompt employees to take action in avoiding either a stroke or heart attack.
Oswald clients can get the testing done during an onsite health screening as part of a customized program.
Cleveland HeartLab, Inc. is a clinical reference laboratory dedicated to chronic disease prevention. Our novel biomarker technologies and educational support enable employers and employees together to identify disease, act to treat the disease and prevent the progession of disease.
