Australian Open: Tommy Paul's Grand Slam record and route to semis
bet365 News Team 25 Jan 23
Despite having never previously gone beyond the fourth round of a Grand Slam, American ace Tommy Paul has been able to eclipse his past efforts and is through to the semi-finals of the Australian Open.
Paul came through an all-American quarter-final clash with Ben Shelton to reach the last four, overcoming his younger compatriot 7-6 6-3 5-7 6-4 to tee-up a semi-final showdown with nine-time Melbourne champion Novak Djokovic, while Stefanos Tsitsipas and Karen Khachanov meet in the other last-four clash.
He is a title winner on the ATP Tour - he won the 2021 Stockholm Open - but this is uncharted territory for the Floridian, who is the current world number 35.
The 25-year-old has overcome two seeded players in order to make the last four, toppling Spanish duo Alejandro Davidovich Fokina and Roberto Bautista Agut, and will have to do so again if he is to get to the final.
With Djokovic 2/9 To Win Outright - lying in wait, the underdog is 20/1 to be crowned champion in Melbourne and, with the American being a relatively unknown proposition, here is all you need to know.
Who is Tommy Paul?
Having turned professional in 2015, Paul has taken some time to put his best foot forward. The 25-year-old only broke into the top 100 in 2019 and didn't win his first ATP Tour title until 2021, when landing top prize in Stockholm.
Unusually for an American player, the New Jersey-born man had originally favoured a clay surface, but that has changed over time and he is now versatile across all conditions.
It was always a matter of time until Paul went deep in a showpiece event, having won the French Open as a junior in 2015, as well as finishing as runner-up in the US equivalent.
Paul came into the first Grand Slam of the season as world number 35, but his efforts Down Under will see him break into the top 20 for the first time.
The American possesses a strong attacking forehand and has solid footwork along the baseline, which allows him to use his speed and regularly come into the net.
What is Tommy Paul's Grand Slam record?
This is a career-best effort from Paul in a Grand Slam and in making the semi-final he becomes the first American to reach the last four of the men's singles at the Australian Open since Andy Roddick in 2009.
Paul's three previous appearances in the Australian Open main draw had seen him crash out before the third round, while his previous best effort in a Grand Slam came at Wimbledon last summer when he reached the fourth round.
After recording five victories in Melbourne, Paul has taken his combined Grand Slam record to 16 wins and 13 defeats and he is now 66/1 to win his home US Open later this year.

What was Tommy Paul's route to the semi-finals?
Paul kickstarted his Australian adventure with a convincing 6-1 7-6 6-2 victory over German Jan-Lennard Struff, but found things much tougher in round two.
The American came through a topsy-turvy second-round duel with Davidovich Fokina, coming from behind to win an epic five-setter to prevail against the Spaniard in just under four hours.
Paul made light work of fellow American Jenson Brooksby in his third match, dropping just eight games to tee up a fourth-round date with another Spaniard, Bautista Agut.
The world number 25 needed four sets but was a deserving winner, which set up his quarter-final meeting with younger compatriot Shelton.
The 20-year-old showed plenty of promise, but it was ultimately the extra experience which enabled Paul to come out on top in four sets and seal a first Grand Slam semi-final spot.
What is Tommy Paul's record against top-ten performers?
Despite making the Melbourne semi-finals, Paul has yet to face a player ranked above world number 24.
However, that is about to change as former world number one and nine-time Australian Open champion Djokovic is next in line.
Interestingly, Paul has never faced the 21-time Grand Slam winner, but he has had some success against top-ten performers.
The 25-year-old has won six of his previous 18 meetings with then top-ten performers, which includes four landmark victories in 2022.
Last season Paul overcame Matteo Berrettini in Acapulco, Alexander Zverev in Indian Wells, world number one Carlos Alcaraz in Montreal and Rafael Nadal in Paris.
Those scalps highlight that Paul is improving, although this is the biggest match of his career and he is set to face one of the greatest players of all-time.

Q: How to remove the last character from an array? Is there a way of removing the very last character from an array?
Just to be clear, I am not asking for every entry in the array to have its last character removed, only the very last entry into the array should have its last character deleted.
I have looked at chop/chomp/push/pop etc but alot is related to removing values from strings.

A: chop is the right tool, but it takes a list of params. If you pass it an array, all elements will be chopped. Instead, just use the index -1. That always gives you the last element.
my @foo = qw(foo bar baz);
chop $foo[-1];
print Dumper \@foo;

# ['foo', 'bar', 'ba']

From the doc:

If you chop a list, each element is chopped. Only the value of the last chop is returned.

A: The pop and push commands add or remove the entire last entry on arrays. These (and their partners, unshift and shift) don't act on individual characters.
The chomp command only removes \n. It was added in Perl 4.0 to replace the chop command as the standard means of removing the \n characters when you read in a line from a file. This is because chomp doesn't remove any characters if the last character wasn't a \n. This means you can safely chomp a string even if you weren't sure whether or not it had a \n on the end.
The chop command does exactly what you want. It removes the last character no matter what that character is. In earlier versions of Perl, you were suppose to check to see what chop returned to make sure it was a \n character. This is what you want.
The problem you're having is that both chomp and chop will operate not just on scalar context, but also on array and hash contexts too. In hash and array context, they act all all the scalar data (but not the keys in hashes). After all, if I read in an entire file, this is pretty much what I want:
my @file_data = <$file_fh>;  #Reads in the entire file into an array
chomp @file_data;            #Removes all `\n` in one fell swoop

So, when you do:
chop @my_array;

It is doing what Perl thinks you want and not what you actually want -- removing just the last character from the last entry in the array.
What you want to do is specify just the last entry in that array, and just chomp that. There are two ways you can do this:
$my_array[ $#my_array ];
$my_array[ -1 ];

The first uses the fact that $#my_array is equal to the index of the last entry in the array. The second one takes a Perl shortcut where negative entries reflect the end of the array:
$my_array[-1];  #Last entry of the array
$my_array[-2];  #Second to the last entry

You'll see both ways in Perl scripts. Now, you can use chop on just the last entry of your array:
chop $my_array[-1];
chop $my_array[ $#my_array ];

As-Salamu 'Alaykum. I am fifteen years old born Muslim, seeking wisdom and help. My problem is that recently I have started to wonder whether I am a true, good Muslim. I have started to do research on my own of the hijab but still needed someone to directly address my problems to.
The thing is that my parents tell me to wear the hijab at school, which I do, however, anywhere outside of school I do not wear it and also wear makeup. In the winter holiday, I felt that I have gotten really close to Allah (SWT) as I have really started to avoid any sins and I also now affectionately worship Allah (SWT). I was not like this before. In fact, I didn't even used to pray five times a day. But the problem is that at the moment I do not feel comfortable wearing hijab JUST to school. I feel as though I am deceiving others and myself as a Muslim.
As a Muslim girl, I feel it is wrong to wear a "hijab" just for the sake of my parents. I have always obeyed them, have never done anything to disrespect them or even greater to disrespect my religion. However, I feel as though this disrespects the whole purpose of a hijab. In sha' Allah, in the future, I do wish to wear the hijab, but only when I feel comfortable myself, only when I myself have the intention to wear a proper hijab which I never take off. But I want my parents to let me take some decisions for myself; I want them to let me become my own true Muslim; I want to find my own deen. Although, my parents pray five times a day, they do not acquire the amount of knowledge I wish to seek.
Please, tell me what to do to convince my parents that as a Muslim I don't want to disrespect the hijab; therefore I don't want to wear it JUST to school. How do I convince them that although I understand it is their duty to teach me, they need to trust me that I will not try to seek the attention of other males? They think that if they are not around, I will misbehave and do something which will damage our reputation. I have no intention of doing so. In fact, I just want to be a faithful Muslim.
How do I gain their trust in me? This issue has made me become really stressed out leading to lack of sleep and depression. Please help me.
• Write a list of the reasons you do not want to wear a hijab, and then on the other side of the paper, write reasons why you should.
• Wearing hijab can be fun as there are many styles, fabrics, colors, and textures to choose from. You can still be an individual and wear hijab.
• Socialize and do things with sisters who already wear hijab, or those who, like you, are serious about Islam.
I am so happy to hear you have started praying and seeking a closer relationship with Allah (swt). Ma sha' Allah, it is a beautiful journey, and your desire for Islamic knowledge will bring many blessings in sha' Allah, as well as many tests as the one you are going through now.
You stated that "I do not feel comfortable wearing a hijab just to school. I feel as though I am deceiving others and myself as a Muslim." Sister, why would you feel uncomfortable wearing a hijab if you are trying to get closer to Allah (swt) and it is commanded for Muslim girls/women to wear hijab? Aboutislam scholar states, "I think you know that Allah (swt) has told us in the Quran to wear hijab.
Dear sister, I ask you to please write a list of the reasons you do not want to wear a hijab, and then on the other side of the paper, write reasons why you should. You mentioned that at other times when you do not wear hijab, you also wear makeup. Sister, it is perfectly normal to want to look pretty and try different styles, makeup and so forth. However, if you feel uncomfortable wearing hijab because of the feeling that it may make you look less attractive, you must ask yourself: I am trying to attract the dunya (this world) or the favor of Allah (swt)?
Also, wearing hijab can be fun as there are many styles, fabrics, colors, and textures to choose from. You can still be an individual and wear hijab. Allah (swt) forgive me if I am assuming because you are 15, you do want to experiment with style and fashion. If this is not the reason my dear sister, please search your heart to find out what it is. This may be a transition period for you.
As a revert to Islam, it took me a while to get used to wearing hijab as well. I was not used to it. I did not associate hair with sexuality or attractiveness as I am from the West. However, in wanting to please Allah (swt), I did start wearing hijab alhumdulilah, and I do enjoy the different fabrics, colors, and styles. But most of all, I like the fact that I am pleasing Allah (swt) and that when I go out, people know I am Muslim.
Sister, I ask that you pray to Allah (swt) for guidance. Make du'aa', asking Allah (swt) to resolve any issue in your heart regarding hijab and to grant you ease. In this world, wearing hijab is an honor identifying you as one of Allah's (swt) servants.
As far as your parents go, as you are only 15, yes, you have an obligation to obey them. They are also older and wiser, and they have the life experience and knowledge to support their decisions in raising you. Also, as you know, they are accountable to Allah (swt) for how they raise you just as you are accountable to Allah (swt) as to how you treat them, and if you are obedient to them. You stated "As a Muslim girl, I feel it is wrong to wear a "hijab" just for the sake of it, just for the sake of my parents." Actually, it is for two reasons: the first is being obedient to Allah (swt), and the second is being obedient to your parents.
Dear sister, if you feel wearing hijab only to school is deceiving others and yourself as a Muslim, can you look at it from a different angle? Perhaps, from the viewpoint that as a Muslim girl who is striving to get closer to Allah (swt), you wear hijab to school to be obedient, but also that you are in the process of dedicating yourself to a whole new way of life which includes changes that you may need time to get used to.
Dear sister, I ask that you ease up on yourself, try your best, and strive to learn more about Islam as well as applying it to your life. As you were born Muslim and just started practicing, often we must take it in baby steps and not be so hard on ourselves. Yes, the issue of hijab is important. It is mandatory. I applaud your efforts in wearing it to school. You should be proud of yourself rather than feeling stressed or depressed over it.
Additionally, I urge you to socialize and do things with sisters who already wear hijab, or those who, like you, are serious about Islam and are also making changes in their lives. By doing so, you will find much support, insight, and in sha' Allah make lifelong friends in the process. Seek out Muslim girl groups in your community as well as friends at your Masjid for social activities.
As far as getting your parents to let you make some of your own decisions and trust you, I would suggest sitting down with them and calmly, adult-like-discuss your concerns, feelings, and wishes for some independence. You may be surprised to find they are very understanding. However, with independence comes responsibility, so if you are presenting yourself as a responsible young woman, who I am sure you are, you will likely get more cooperation to make some of your own decisions.
The issue of trust with many parents is not so much that they don't trust their children; it's other people they do not trust and whom they fear may harm their child. That is why they set rules, check up on you, and generally ensure you are safe and with good company. Islamic way of life functions in the same way, to guard us, protect us and keep us from harmful ways as much as possible, hence wearing hijab.
Sister, again, I urge you to be gentle with yourself, yet, take a stand on hijab. Keep in prayer, make du'aa', ask Allah (swt) for help as He (swt) is Most Merciful and Most Forgiving.
Also, be happy with the progression you have made towards being a practicing Muslim. You pray you to seek Islamic knowledge, and you are refraining from haram! Be happy about this for it is a blessing from Allah (swt). We all have things to work on, we all are constantly striving. Surround yourself with other girls who are striving, too, and this part of the journey won't be so hard!


Every new car show, sponsorship, billboard and brand marketing approach you participate in should include a way to capture the traffic and further the relationship – even if your prospects don't convert right away.
You want to give yourself the opportunity to convert institutional advertising into direct response so you can engage, enroll and compel them to your dealership.
Remember driving traffic is easy! What you do afterwards is where the real marketing begins. Consider driving people to a landing page that requires them to give their email in order to get the content that they came for.
You can create a retargeting strategy for all the traffic that leaves your landing page or website without completing the intended result.
Then, retarget them on Facebook – driving those consumers to an offer of high perceived value where they must give you their email address. Then you can market to them where they are – in their inbox and news feed.
If you're going to put in the time, effort and money into brand advertising, whether it be posters, billboards or banners, you have to make it worthwhile.
It doesn't matter how good your offer and copy is if your call to action isn't clearly defined. You have to tell the person who took the time to pay attention to your ad what to do next in order to find out more or receive something of value.
Don't be passive! There is nothing wrong with asking someone to do something – even with brand advertising. Making it easy and enjoyable for people to get the transportation they want and need is why we exist.
We can't do that if we never communicate with them.
You want to use actionable words and phrases to compel the reader to do what you want.
Tell them what you want them to do and make sure you focus on what's in it for them – that's all they care about.
Keep it simple. People need to know how to complete the next step at a quick glance. Urgency is always a great motivator and can help you create an offer they can't refuse.
Answer their questions and fears by giving them more information on what happens on the next step.
Brand advertising, like most sponsorships, TV ads, and display ads, are high funnel advertising – where there is rarely a compelling call to action.
High funnel is cold traffic. They usually have no relationship with your dealership and rarely know anything about you. More importantly, cold traffic doesn't trust car dealers.
To give you a weak analogy, how do you like it when someone you do not know reaches out to you to connect on LinkedIn…then, within minutes of connecting they send you some lame message requesting a meeting with you?
You want to avoid the same approach with leads that come from high funnel advertising!
There are marketing leads and there are sales leads – high funnel marketing leads need more info (content they want) before they start trusting you and enroll in your call to actions.
The good news is, as they repeatedly see you in their news feed from retargeting and get content from you in their inbox, they'll begin to warm up. The warmer the lead, the closer they get to buying.
It can take up to seven touches (emails, texts, calls, etc.) before they are ready to buy from you. Sometimes it takes more.
If you don't capture the traffic the first time it will take you a lot longer – or even worse – you'll never get to the seventh touch point and the sale.
The auto industry is brutally competitive and starts with very limited trust from consumers – especially potential conquest buyers. You only have two ways to win deals in today's market.
You have to make an incredible value offer and then live up to your promise.
You have to create an incredible experience through professional follow up. You have to be willing to give superior value in advance.
Was the prospect's experience with you enjoyable, quick, easy, frictionless – even fun?
You have to build tremendous trust.

Rep. Elijah E. Cummings, the Maryland Democrat who is slated to take over the powerful House Oversight Committee, says a key focus for the newly aligned panel would be to determine whether President Trump is improperly profiting from his office.
On the morning after his party won control of the House, Cummings said Democrats would seek to review Trump's tax returns as well as delve into dealings between the federal government and the Trump International Hotel near the White House.
Democrats have alleged that Trump, by virtue of his hotel, is in violation of the U.S. Constitution's emoluments clause, which bars presidents from doing business with foreign governments.
As Democrats celebrated their House victories and contemplated ways in which they could flex their newfound political and legislative muscle, Trump used Twitter to warn his House rivals not to "waste Taxpayer Money" probing him.
"Two can play that game!" Trump tweeted, saying Republicans would be "forced to consider" their own investigations if Democrats did not stand down.
Cummings, who would have subpoena power in his new post, said House Democrats must decide the specific issues that will draw the focus of individual congressional committees. Possible subjects, he said, could include how Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in law, gained access to classified documents despite withholding information on a security clearance application about his contacts with Russian officials.
"We haven't figured all this out yet," Cummings said.
Another point of interest is Scott Pruitt, the former head of the Environmental Protection Agency, who resigned in July amid a flurry of ethics investigations into his taxpayer-funded purchases of first-class airline tickets, spending violations and close ties to lobbyists.
Cummings, 67, is a former Maryland state lawmaker who was elected to the House in 1996. His district includes large portions of Baltimore and Howard County.
After heart surgery in 2017, he was hospitalized this year with a knee infection, a malady that requires him to walk with the help of a walker.
Known for his booming oratory, Cummings drew national attention during Baltimore's 2015 riots, when cable news stations captured him walking the streets of his neighborhood in what he calls the "inner inner city," using a bullhorn to implore crowds to disperse.
As the Oversight Committee's ranking Democrat, Cummings also took center stage when he defended then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during GOP-driven probes into her response to the attacks on an American diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya.
Former Utah congressman Jason Chaffetz, the Republican who was Oversight chairman from 2015 until last year, described Cummings as a "good man with a good heart" and recalled that he cooperated with Republican colleagues on the committee when they sent hundreds of letters seeking documents from the Obama administration.
Chaffetz said that Cummings's greatest challenge in his new role will be to avoid overreaching his statutory authority.
Cummings, a lawyer by training, insisted that he would approach his role with a fact-based, judicial bearing. He resisted the notion that he would emerge as a new Washington persona, a foil to the president.
Trump will not be his sole focus, he said, adding that he would also devote the committee's attention to the cost of prescription drugs, among other issues. But he regards restoring public confidence in Washington as a centerpiece of his mission.
"We now have an opportunity, as Democrats, to bring some normalcy to our government," Cummings said. He recounted that he often tells constituents that Trump's tenure is the equivalent of a storm.


Recently, at the inaugural BSides Edinburgh, Ben Turner and I made the trek up to Edinburgh to see our colleague Neil Lines present his talk "The Hunt for The Red DA". I can't say that I am a massive fan of such early starts (we jumped on the first flight out of Birmingham), but thankfully the organisers made the trip absolutely worth it. The talks that I saw were well presented and had good technical content while the venue was absolutely amazing. I even learnt some stuff about the world of IoT that I wished I didn't know; cheers Ken.
SecureWorks kindly created a challenge for the BSides Edinburgh 2017 audience; they named it the Crypto Contest. Personally, I think one of the core skills as a good penetration tester is being able to quickly deal with data that are you are unfamiliar with and to have a good set of tools that can parse & process in a flexible way. The contest was a good way to practice some of those skills and demonstrate to my colleagues why pure C# in the world's best programming tool – LINQPad is better than Powershell 😉 Plus, there were some very cool prizes on hand; our eyes quickly zoned in on the Hak5 Bash Bunny.
Now credit for this goes to Ben; after trying some advanced military grade cryptographic techniques such as ROT13, he craned his neck and quickly spotted that this was in fact just rotated text. Yep, I was massively over thinking it too! All we had to do was quickly put together some code that would rotate the text 90 degrees around the origin. Firing up LINQPad, the following solution was created (which of course has been tidied up and comments added).
Sure, we could have put the monitor on its side, but where's the fun in that?
Once again, using LINQPad, the following code split up all the symbols, translate each one and then coverted it all into a string.
This gave us the following result, which is written in the NATO phonetic alphabet.
The first calculation was the size; the 5 lines contained 1200 bits (150 bytes). Assuming bytes was our first mistake; this had us trying to convert to different text forms and every kind of data type that we could think of, without any luck. Being bits, we then tried creating images types, e.g. bitmap and even QR codes (which in fairness didn't really align to the size). The path then led to 6 bit characters because, well, 1200 divides by that very nicely. In honesty, we should have looked more into that first, but we didn't as there was a talk we wanted to see (honest :)).
So, we were back inside the vendor area when the following tweet arrived.
We get the following output; there were a couple of manual corrections that we needed to make to get the flag, but it looked like the Bash Bunny might be ours.
While not a Crypto contest in the strictest sense of the word, it was still a lot of fun and we got some practice with data formats that we don't normally come across. As I said at the start, this is an important skill. A big thank you to SecureWorks for putting the time in to create this contest – we really enjoyed it and we hope you all enjoyed our write up!


Production is at the center of all business. Knowing exactly how much you're getting from your managerial staff and the employees working under is imperative. Under-performing sectors of the office can shed light on quarterly gains/losses, and it's here where you might determine how understaffed or overstaffed your company is once the accountant comes calling.
But sometimes it's not about the size of the employees. Sometimes it could be the structure of the business where, in some cases, it isn't as uniformed as it should be. Part of that could be from being a startup and not having immediate access to amenities such as a larger office space and/or top-of-the-line technology at their employees' fingertips. Mostly though, it's a case of insufficient training for all parties involved…from the CEO on down to supervisors to entry-level employees.
And that's where sufficient training methods come into play. The old saying, "you can't make an omelet without cracking some eggs", can be a referendum for nearly anything, and in this case, employee efficiency.
Here are a few ways that training procedures can work to lift employee production into even greater levels.
If the conductor's not in line, the rest of staff will fall to the wayside as well. Having a competent HR department and highly-skilled supervisors can represent a better cog for their business when they have every process mapped out and coordinated to work effectively. Whether that's through off-the-shelf training packets for each individual to learn and grow from or having weekly progress reports instead of monthly checkups…there's plenty of rewards waiting for the entire office if the higher-ups are sufficiently trained to deliver the message to the rest of the staff.
This is a big factor for the staff because it can help alleviate any and all uneasiness or uncertainty of common workplace concerns or issues such as harassment or discrimination incidents, what signs to look for and whether these concerns should be reported to HR or somewhere else. It's imperative to have a chain of command for dealing with concerns that can have a great impact on business proceedings from both a legal stance and a financial one on the progress of projects and sales.
The better your business is at informing and monitoring basic workplace compliance, the more comfortable of an environment the office can be.
Being too overbearing on employees when it's completely unnecessary can have a negative impact. On the flip side, being too lenient can mask poor-performing employees. Finding symmetry somewhere in the middle allows a company to run like a well-oiled machine for the simple fact that employees have an easier time knowing what's expected of them. Management doesn't have to go around singing the praises of an employee every time they finish a product, but they shouldn't be distant from their achievements, either.
When it comes down to it, any business that thrives does so not just because of their product, but in the way it's marketed, analyzed and dealt with from a customer service standpoint. And great customer service comes from efficient training and effective employees that work in tandem with their management departments above them. It's a process in and of itself, but without a focused process to begin with, the ship that is your business may have trouble keeping water from its barracks.

Imagine for a moment your life as a circle. At the center of this circle, there is a throne. On the throne is sitting the most influential person in your life. Who is sitting on this throne? Some put their enemies on this throne. These people allow their enemies to consume their life. Hatred for their enemies controls their thoughts, actions and attitudes.
Most people put themselves on this throne. They are self-centered and use every situation. Like the expression says, they only live for "me, myself and I". Their life is self-centered and they are miserable.
Really, Jesus is the One we must place on this throne. If we want to experience an abundant life now and an eternal life in heaven, we must allow Jesus to influence and guide our lives! Jesus is Lord. The word "Lord" means master or owner, he who has power and authority on another. Is He your Lord?
In our personal life, if Jesus is not the master of all, He is not the master of anything.
We all serve someone. We all place someone on the throne of our life. It may be our enemies, our friends, ourself, Jesus or someone else, but we all serve someone.
Who do you serve? Who is your Lord?

Israel Briefs: Israeli Moon Mission Hits Snag and More
Archaeologists Unearth 1,600-Year-Old Estate in Central Israel That Belonged to Rich Samaritan
A 1,600-year-old estate belonging to a wealthy Samaritan man was discovered in Tzur Natan, JNS.org reported.
The central Israel property included an inscription reading "Only God help the beautiful property of Master Adios, amen."
"The inscription was discovered in an impressive wine press that was apparently part of the agricultural estate of a wealthy individual called Adios," said Hagit Torge, director of the excavations on behalf of the Israel Antiquities Authority. "This is only the second such wine press discovered in Israel with a blessing inscription associated with the Samaritans."
Stone quarries featuring rock-cut depressions used for growing grapevines were found near the wine press — which was near the top of Tel Tzur Natan. Remains of a Samaritan synagogue were found there as well.
Ten Plagues Redux: Swarms of Locusts May Descend
Locust swarms may land in Israel because of heavy rain in eastern Yemen and the Sudan-Eritrea border, according to Israel's ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, JNS.org reported.
Israel's Plant Protection and Inspection Services Department of the Ministry are coordinating with the United Nations to receive locust movement updates.
The locusts do not represent a disease threat, but can severely damage agricultural crops. Israel is checking its pesticide supply.
Locusts last swarmed in Israel in 2013, despite a wall of pesticide on the Sinai border, as some insects entered the country through central Israel.
Carb-Heavy Foods to Be Limited at Government Events
Government meetings and events in Israel will feature new dietary rules designed to replace carbohydrate-heavy food with more nutritious choices, JNS.org reported.
Israel's Civil Service Commission published new guidelines that call for fresh fruits, vegetables, rice crackers and unsweetened yogurt, while excluding candies, sodas and pastries, including the Israeli favorite, the boureka.
High-calorie, high-sodium, high-fat and high-carbohydrate processed foods will be replaced at government-run hospitals, tax authority offices, parliament and courts, according to the guidelines.
The initiative is part of an Israeli Ministry of Health effort designed to encourage healthy food choices. Israel recently ranked as the world's 10th healthiest country in the Bloomberg Healthiest Country Index.
Israeli Moon Mission Hits Snag, Still Expected to Be on Time
An unexpected onboard computer restart on Feb. 26 caused the postponement of the Israeli "Beresheet" lunar spacecraft's latest maneuver attempt which, in turn, caused a scheduled trajectory adjustment to be missed, JNS.org reported.
Engineers are checking whether the restart was connected to a problem with the star navigation system. One possibility was that the system was impacted by glare from the sun.
Despite the glitch — which never cropped up in simulations — Beresheet is still scheduled to land on the moon on April 11. Built-in buffers were added to the schedule in case of delays.
Israel became on Feb. 22 the first country to launch a privately funded lunar mission — and the fourth country overall to launch a lunar spacecraft. The SpaceX Falcon 9 launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida.

See Sorcerer Job Change Guide for detailed information. The offensive AoE build strips itself of its former single target spell past and ascends to the utilization of magic that deals damage to multiple foes.
INT is the primary attribute to increase this damage output. However, MATK is still included in the skill formulae so getting a small amount of LUK is still recommended, and it also provides other bonuses like perfect dodge and status resists.
Sorcerer AoE spells have a very short after cast delay, but very high reuse delay. A common practice of using AoE spells in combination is key to reach high damage output.
The variable cast time reduction effect of Magic Strings is definitely helpful however. Getting at least one other second tier AoE is essential for effective combos, but learning all three severely limits the other spells you can acquire.
It is suggested to gain at least one Elemental Summon ally, as they can change the element of your Psychic Wave. Preferably, the Fire Spirit Agni is the best choice, due to the severe lack of fire spells.
This will also increase the healing effects of Warmer, which, when used with Indulge to also recover SP, proves to be incredibly effective and can save you a ton of supplies.
In addition, if you choose to use Fire Walk, that damage will also increase. Offensive built Sorcerers may find themselves also acting as support in many situations, including giving SP to party members and so on.
It is definitely possible to build a full offensive magic DPS Sorcerer that can still provide most if not all of the support skills in many situations.
The Support type is going to differ from how the Scholar class was in pre-renewal. Soul Exhale now has a 3 second fixed cast time and only gives your target half of your current SP.
Gone are the days that Champions now Suras can be filled instantly and quickly for fast leveling. Magnetic Earth has lost some of its usefulness as many 3rd class skills bypass it.
Dispell has also been given a large fixed cast time. Due to this and the lack of many new support skills, the niche that Scholars used to have has been diminished.
The role has not been lost! Due to the advent of status inflicting spells such as Diamond Dust and Arrullo , the AoE healing abilities of Warmer with no catalyst cost especially with fire summon , and the supporting skill that can be achieved through Summon skills, the Sorcerer can be a very powerful support.
Striking is a great buff to ATK classes both physical and ranged ones. Note that a support oriented Sorcerer can still opt for the AoE Sorcerer skills to provide some damage when needed, at least in the leveling phase.
Stats -wise, a support Sorcerer does not necessarily differ too much from an offensive caster Sorcerer. However a Sorcerer has a new spell available to them: Spell Fist.
This build is single target oriented and so is more of a "for fun" type of build, as leveling really requires AOE. It is definitely possible to kill lower tier MVPs with this build however.
Since the Sorcerer class is more versatile than its predecessors, they can wear different sets of weapons and armors. As part of the Shadow Equipment obtainable via Cash Shop, these are suggested for the Sorcerer class usually as a set.
What sets sorcerer apart from their warlock counterpart is the ability to achieve instacast, this applies to some offensive skills like Psychic Wave , Diamond Dust and some support skills like Soul Exhale.
Another part of achieving instacast is the equipments you're using. Stacking variable cast time reductions is a must because your fixed cast time reductions has been taken care of by Ventus, which means you need to get some equipments enchanted, particularly with the spell enchants please refer to the Malangdo Enchants , Fallen Angel Wing Enchants , RWC Accessory Enchants , and Temporal Boots Enchants page on how to get spell enchants.
With the amount of equipments available, there are a lot of choices that you can use to reduce your variable cast time, it just amounts to whatever funds you may have and what situations you are using them for.

This is a huge boost considering most of sorcerers skills has a 1 sec fixed cast time on them, so using ventus means you can get rid of the fixed cast time part on some of your skills.
Note that level 1 to 3 Ventus gives the same amount of fixed cast time reduction. Spirit Control. In order for the summon ventus to reduce your fixed cast time, it needs to be put in passive mode, and Spirit Control level 1 puts your summoned spirit in passive mode, so dont forget to cast it before you go into a fight.

And it was only a week later that I realized a close up of Steve McQueen was worth the greatest landscape you could find.
McQueen was the director's first choice for the role eventually taken by Roy Scheider , as a small-time criminal named Jackie Scanlon who ends up a fugitive from the law and the Mafia after a robbery of a New Jersey church.
Scanlon's role was written specifically for McQueen after Friedkin met him in person and he turned out to be very keen on the idea.
McQueen loved the script, and even went as far as to say "This is the best script I've ever read", but did not want to leave the country or wife Ali MacGraw at the time.
Instead, he proposed that McGraw become an associate producer or that a part be written for her in the film; however, Friedkin declined both his wishes, stating that "there's hardly a major role as a woman…and we don't have associate producers who don't do anything, we're not going to make her an AP.
Manzon's role was originally intended for one of the most prominent European actors, Lino Ventura. Despite Ventura's concerns about his English, he also initially approved Friedkin's proposal.
Mastroianni was still interested but had problems related to his daughter's custody after his separation from Catherine Deneuve , which eventually made him decline the director's offer.
I can do that outside my house. It was not until Universal executive Sidney Sheinberg suggested Scheider, that Friedkin finally managed to employ an actor for the leading role of Jackie Scanlon.
Friedkin was so impressed with his performance in Claude Lelouch 's La Vie, l'amour, la mort released in that he wrote down his name immediately upon seeing the movie, expecting to collaborate with him one day.
As for casting in general, the director expressed his dissatisfaction with the process. He felt Sorcerer "needed stars" and claimed that the actors hired for the roles of Scanlon and Manzon were his fifth, sixth or seventh preferred choices.
Spanish actor Francisco Rabal, however, was his "about second or third choice". Scanlon's role was also offered to Clint Eastwood and Jack Nicholson , neither of whom was willing to travel to the Dominican Republic.
Friedkin recalls working with Scheider as difficult, stating the actor had frequent mood swings which did not occur during the filming of The French Connection and theorized that after achieving stardom with Jaws he became "difficult", which contrasted with his attitude from The French Connection , where he "would've lied [ sic ] down in front of an elevated train" for Friedkin.
The director stated Scheider at times was "impossible to talk to" and completely indifferent towards any of his suggestions.
He summarized the experience by saying the arduous production schedule and difficult conditions in the Dominican Republic were most likely the reasons behind their difficult relationship.
According to Diane Kachmar, Friedkin believed that he inspired others to achieve great results, but Scheider did not favor such working conditions.
However, their relationship eventually "drifted apart". One of my themes is that there is good and evil in everyone. I was not out to make these guys heroes.
I really don't believe in heroes. The best of people have a dark side and it's a constant struggle for the better side to survive and to thrive.
According to Friedkin cited by Kachmar, his artistic intent was to shoot the entire film without "sentiment" or "melodrama", rendering it completely devoid of "heartfelt moments".
Scott Fitzgerald 's novel The Great Gatsby served as an inspiration for him in all the movies he made, including Sorcerer. Prior to the post-production process, the movie contained a significantly larger amount of dialogue, [39] and a detailed analysis of the European and American cuts reveals that certain scenes involving the relationship between Scanlon and Nilo, as well as presenting some of Nilo's motives, were removed.
Unlike The Wages of Fear , in which the main characters were given two trucks in mint condition by the oil company, their counterparts depicted in Sorcerer had to be assembled by the protagonists themselves, using parts salvaged from wrecks.
Friedkin chose Dick Bush as his director of photography after seeing the film version of the rock opera Tommy , directed by Ken Russell , and after finding out that Bush had filmed Gustav Mahler 's biography as well as collaborated with Lindsay Anderson , whom Friedkin regarded highly.
The director fulfilled his wish and was reportedly "delighted". In the film's pressbook Friedkin states that for him creating a film is multi-faceted experience: "[e]very film is actually three films[.
There is the film you actually shoot. And there is the film that emerges with you in the editing room". Principal photography commenced on location in Paris and depicted Victor Manzon's backstory.
However, after an hour the director ordered a second take, being adamant about the previous accident. Dimitri praised Friedkin's craftmanship by saying that "when you watch the movie and everything gets obliterated, you can't even tell if it's the first or second take".
It took twelve takes [51] and approximately ten days to achieve what Friedkin intended. The director recalls the sequence as seemingly "impossible to shoot", having involved several stuntmen from New York, the crew wrecked seven vehicles over the course of a week, without satisfying the director's intents.
After Friedkin supplied him with all the necessary information about the set's infrastracture, Chitwood meticulously analyzed the surroundings himself, and ordered the special effects technicians to construct a forty-feet long slanted ramp which would allow him to "drive the car at top speed on two wheels, flip it in midair, and crash into a fire hydrant".
The construction took three days, and the stunt was successful during its very first take. According to Friedkin, the most important scene in the film was "the bridge-crossing sequence, wherein the two trucks have to separately cross an old wooden suspension bridge that appears completely unstable".
He also deemed it the most arduous scene he has ever filmed. However, as soon as it was finished, Friedkin's crew faced a problem of abnormally low rainfall.
During the construction process, the river's water level decreased dramatically, and by the time the bridge was assembled, the river had become completely dry, despite the assurance of local engineers that there had not been any recorded fluctuations in water level during the dry season.
Studio executives suggested Friedkin devise a less sophisticated scene, but instead he continued to realize his vision in different locations.
Thus, John Box went to scout locations in Mexico and found that the Papaloapan River possessed similar characteristics.
The previously constructed bridge had to be disassembled and re-anchored. Friedkin's crew's arrival caused a major disturbance in the vicinity among the locals because of his reputation as a director of The Exorcist.
However, a part of the population offered help to finish the structure. Ultimately, this river also became stricken with drought, which forced the application of some practical effects to complete the scene.
In order to create artificial rain, Friedkin employed sewage pumps draining water from the river and diverting it to a sprinkler system.
This scene alone, which lasts 12 minutes, took several months to complete and cost approximately three million dollars. He was friends with the film editor, Bud Smith, who recalls Ekins being "as cool as cucumber".
For instance, since Roy Scheider's character Jackie Scanlon was meant to be a mob's wheelman, he had to undertake a special preparation for manoeuvering a vintage truck with the purpose of gaining the necessary driving skills.
He summarized the experience as "rehearsing to stay alive". Scheider has emphasized that no rear-screen projection or any other kinds of "trick photography" were used, due to the distance between the cameras, the vehicles and the surrounding terrain.
Said scene was also, according to him, the most perilous sequence he has ever taken part in. Friedkin antagonized Paramount, using a Gulf and Western corporate photo for a scene that featured the evil board of directors of the fictional company which hired the men to deliver nitroglycerin.
When Bluhdorn saw his picture on the wall as chairman of the oil company he had a shit hemorrhage! To create four prologues for the characters' respective backstories, Friedkin shot each of the vignettes on location, respectively in Paris for Victor Manzon, Jerusalem for Kassem, Elizabeth, New Jersey , for Jackie Scanlon, and Veracruz , Mexico, for Nilo.
The main part of the film was, on the other hand, originally meant to be shot in Ecuador , which impressed Friedkin tremendously.
However, such a diversity of locations caused serious concerns about the budget. The director eventually settled on the Dominican Republic , after receiving a green light from the studio's executives.
Paul Rowlands, a critic, stated that "it's likely the decision to film in the Dominican Republic was one favoured by Bluhdorn.
After scouting locations with Walon Green and John Box, the production designer, they chose La Altagracia village as the main location.
Although the majority of the film was filmed in the Dominican Republic, Friedkin did not hesitate to look for other locales to achieve the desired effect.
One of the most notable ones is depicted in the film's climax. The one sequence left to shoot was the last leg of the journey of the surviving truck, the Lazaro, and I wanted it to be different from the other locations… and John Box found it in a place called the Bisti Badlands in northwestern New Mexico, 35 miles south of the town called Farmington … It was the landscape we chose for the end of the journey, in which Scanlon embraces madness, abandons his truck, and carries the dynamite two miles to the burning oilfield.
During a sequence involving the detonation of an enormous kaoba tree, Friedkin was faced with a problem of inadequate explosive power. Initially, Marcel Vercoutere, a special effects man who previously worked with the director on The Exorcist , was to be responsible for the explosion.
However, it did not achieve the required effect and barely damaged the tree. This prompted Friedkin to reach for the services of an arsonist hailing from Queens , New York, going by the pseudonym "Marvin the Torch", who arrived at the Dominican Republic three days after the call and utilizing flammable materials obliterated the tree in one take the following morning.
The director described the prologues as "beautifully shot", but he was dissatisfied with the jungle scenes which he deemed "underexposed" and "dark".
He told Dick Bush a reshoot would be necessary. Bush, on the other hand, argued that filming should have taken place on a stage where he could have adequately adjusted the lighting.
The response reminded Friedkin of his previous problems on the set of The Boys in the Band and offended him, as from the very beginning he had wanted to shoot the entire film on location.
Upon seeing the underexposed scenes, Bush reportedly "lost confidence" [12] and was subsequently dismissed, which forced Friedkin to employ a new camera crew.
Stephens with whom he had worked under David L. Stephens applied necessary changes, including the employment of reflectors balancing "the deep shadows of the tall trees", as well as replacing lenses and film stock.
This resulted in a leap of cinematographic quality which delighted the director, who has said "the locations looked beautiful to the eye".
Apart from Bush, Friedkin had a feud with the chief Teamsters representative whom he dismissed at some point and which prompted the director to find another trucker crew.
The director also fired five production managers, which upset Scheider, who said that he was "tired of going to the airport and saying goodbye to them," as well as adding that he was the only person Friedkin could not drop, as he was the leading actor.
Friedkin regretted this situation, as he praised Salven greatly for his previous contributions to his movies. He was replaced by Ian Smith, whom the director described as "experienced and efficient".
It reportedly took two weeks to replace the crew workers. In The Friedkin Connection he added that "almost half the crew went into the hospital or had to be sent home.
The sound design crew included Jean-Louis Ducarme, with whom Friedkin had worked on The Exorcist and of whom he thought very highly.
The sound crew employed distorted samples of tiger and cougar roars for the truck engines' sound. Schexnayder noted that such a technical exercise was "relatively unique for the period"; but, over the years, techniques such as these became a staple of film-making.
In the bottomless silence. Without warning A curtain slowly ascends revealing A midnight dawn. A whisper of chill wind And white sun eclipsed by pale yellow moon.
Rumor of distant thunder trembles along the edge of a galaxy Cascading down infinite corridors of burning mirrors reflecting and rereflecting momentous oceans of stampeding wild horses.
Glass shatters, shrieks and spins away becoming clusters of starfall that scatter from hidden places. Relentless like a recurring nightmare. Centaurs throb within the blood crossing arteries of storming cavalries that crash though the top of your head Recycle and recur Again and again Reminding of white suns eclipsing oceans of stars shrieking through the midnight dawn.
Sorcerer soundtrack back cover [72]. Sorcerer marked the first Hollywood film score for the German krautrock and electronic band Tangerine Dream.
William Friedkin, during his visit in Germany, attended their concert in a derelict church in the Black Forest.
The band seemed to him "on the cutting edge of the electronic synthesizer sound" that soon would become a staple in mainstream culture.
He assessed their music as a mixture of classical music played on synthesizers and "the new pop sound", and described the experience as "mesmerizing".
However, upon learning Friedkin intended to reimagine Wages of Fear , Froese called Friedkin back and asked for video material to be worked on, [73] but Friedkin suggested the band create the score based solely on their impressions of the script, without seeing a single minute of video footage.
Friedkin, an admirer of the band, stated in the liner notes for the soundtrack that "[h]ad [he] heard them sooner [he] would have asked them to score [ The Exorcist ]", and that he considers the film and the score to be "inseparable".
When our trailer [for Sorcerer ] faded to black, the curtains closed and opened again, and they kept opening and opening, and you started feeling this huge thing coming over your shoulder overwhelming you, and heard this noise, and you went right off into space.
It made our film look like this little, amateurish piece of crap. I told Billy [Friedkin], 'We're freaking being blown off the screen. You gotta go see this.
Friedkin's fears were correct; when Sorcerer debuted at the theater, it was so unsuccessful by comparison that Star Wars quickly returned.
Several critics theorized that another probable factor in the film's box office failure was the confusion related to its title.
Cyriaque Lamar of Cracked. To him the title might have indicated a certain likeness to The Exorcist and thought the audiences at the time were either bored with yet another film about exorcisms or that was precisely what they wanted and upon seeing the movie, they got confused, asking themselves "where's the devil?
Furthermore, the opening sixteen minutes contain no English language, which made the audiences think that it was a foreign subtitled film, [84] and caused walk-outs.
After the film's poor reception, its financial disaster prompted Universal executives to void their contract with Friedkin immediately.
Sorcerer was not received as well by the public or film critics as Friedkin's previous two films had been. American movie reviewer D. Holm hinted that all criticisms might have stemmed from the very fact that Friedkin even dared to reimagine a French classic.
In Leonard Maltin 's annual "TV Movies" ratings book, the film receives only two-and-a-half out of four stars, with the critique, "Expensive remake of The Wages of Fear never really catches hold despite a few astounding scenes.
The result is dire. Cumbow in the September issue of Movietone News also panned the film, criticizing camera placement as "faulty", which in his opinion led to substandard exposition.
Moreover, he also deemed the film's editing "ridiculous" and thought Sorcerer lacked character involvement. He concluded the review by saying that with "films like this, feeling is everything.
Gene Siskel claimed that the characters "seem to be a little cold", as well as expressing an opinion that the special effects overpowered the protagonists.
John Simon wrote of how Friedkin 'spent twenty-one million dollars to perpetuate a film that could be usefully studied in courses on how not to make movies'.
James Monaco praised the cinematography and assorted craftsmanship, and stated that "Friedkin has a commitment to this story," but concluded that "somehow technique overwhelms meaning and emotion.
David Badder, in Monthly Film Bulletin , was of the opinion that even if the film had been truncated, it would not improve its quality.
He described Sorcerer as "remarkably lacklustre", and did not appreciate the unstable tone of the movie which he called "impenetrably obscure".
Additionally, he considered Scheider's role to be severely underdeveloped and "consist[ing] of meaningful stares off camera and mournful grimaces.
Ebert, in a November episode of Sneak Previews with Gene Siskel , called the film an "overlooked classic", and was shocked that the film "was so completely overlooked" despite starring Academy Award nominee Roy Scheider and being directed by William Friedkin, an Oscar winner.
Furthermore, he stated the movie had "lots of fun" and praised the suspension bridge scene in particular, saying it "is maybe the most astonishing scene of the whole film.
It's a combination of desperation, suspense and great special effects as Roy Scheider and his partners try to maneuver a giant truck filled with nitrogliceryne through the heart of this jungle across a suspension bridge.
Canby called Sorcerer "a good little melodrama surrounded by pulp" [95] and praised Scheider's and Cremer's performances, which he thought were "extremely good"; [96] Scheider brought "the dominant note of reckless desperation".
The film today is more positively received by professional film critics. The website's critical consensus reads, " Sorcerer , which obstinately motors along on its unpredictable speed, features ambitious sequences of insane white-knuckle tension.
Film critic Robert C. On March 16, , writer-director Peter Hanson summarized that Sorcerer contrasts with frequent self-indulgence of the s and stated that the film is tremendously thrilling with a great deal of tension which he attributed to the plot's construction as "a probing descent into the psyche of an archetypal character driven insane by circumstance".
He also praised the bridge crossing scene and lauded it "one of the most elaborately filmed suspense sequences in cinema history", noting an overwhelming amount of camera set-ups which in his opinion amounted to creating "an exruciating level of tension" and such dedication is palpable throughout the whole film.
Holm , in his book Film Soleil , described the film as "superior to both its model and the novel from which both are loosely taken", as well as deeming the opening vignettes as an "innovation".
According to Holm, one of the most prominent threads in Sorcerer is that "coping with frustration is the 'journey' of life", which in his opinion "excellently set[s] up" the cliffhanger finale.
Academy Award nominee, screenwriter and director Josh Olson , most famous for his screenplay for A History of Violence , made a video review of Sorcerer for the Trailers from Hell webseries in He praised the movie highly, stating that it is Friedkin's best effort " Sorcerer is Friedkin at the top of his game" and was "at least equal to the original.
You can feel the humidity down there in South America. You can feel the sweat on the sticks of dynamite.
Olson felt that "the movie deserved a huge audience" as well as fantasizing that "somewhere there's an alternate universe where Sorcerer is a massive game-changing hit in Hollywood and I'm doing Trailers from Hell commentary on some unknown cult classic called Star Wars.
In his list of "20 [movies] that never disappoint," King placed the original Wages of Fear at 2 and Friedkin's Sorcerer at 1, stating that although Wages of Fear "is considered one of the greatest movies of the modern age", he preferred Sorcerer , and stated that Scheider's Role as Jackie Scanlon was one of the two best roles in his entire career, as well as saying that the film "generate[s] suspense through beautiful simplicity".
A prominent English film critic, Mark Kermode , also expressed his appreciation for the movie, saying that he had "got a fondness for William Friedkin's version of Wages Of Fear Sorcerer ," however adding that "only an idiot would argue that Sorcerer is a better movie than Wages Of Fear.
The film's European as well as Australian [] cinema release cut 28 minutes from the original but not in France, where the movie was distributed in its full-length version.
In most regions of the world it was also retitled as Wages of Fear and distributed by Cinema International Corporation later renamed as United International Pictures , [58] a joint venture between Universal and Paramount specifically established for overseas distribution.
The cuts were made by the international distributor Cinema International Corporation, without Friedkin's consent [27] in order to obtain more screenings.
The aforementioned changes were approved by Verna Fields and commissioned to Jim Clark, who reluctantly agreed, and Cynthia Scheider. Fields was a Universal Studios executive who thought shortening and restructuring the movie would increase the film's commercial potential.
Scheider was also interested in applying those changes, offering his cooperation. Jim Clark was reportedly assured by Fields that Friedkin permitted changes, but was very suspicious about the authenticity of this claim.
Therefore, Clark wrote an indemnity preventing Friedkin from any form of interference. Some additional dialogue written by Clark and Ken Levinson was later dubbed in.
The studio did not possess the original work print; hence it was forced to work on the combined print.

Wondering where to take your family for a great dinner? Well, instead of ordering pizza and burgers, how about visiting a fine-dine restaurant? The hospitality industry has come a long way in the last two decades, and today, every restaurant strives hard to win customers, keeping the steep competition in mind. In this post, we will talk about choosing a fine dining restaurant for your next outing.
First things first, find a place that offers a versatile menu. Restaurant themes are getting popular by the day, and yet, there's nothing like having more options for every meal. If you are fond of brunches and buffets, you can check that, or else, some people just like the idea of a la carte menu too.
Check the reviews. If you are looking for a new place in your city, it is best to check the reviews online. Known options have great reviews from other customers, which just helps in understanding their services better.
The service highlights are important. Every restaurant is different and has unique highlights. One might be known for great location, while the other might be popular for good seafood. It all depends on what you expect from a dining experience.
Can you book online? The last thing you would want a diner is an unexpected long queue. Some restaurants like Restaurant Sinclair in Old Montreal have online portals, where you can seek reservations easily.
What else do they offer? Some restaurants have a terrace that can be used for special occasions, while some offer customized services on request. If you are planning an event or a party, choosing a fine-dine place is quite a good idea.
Hospitality and services matter. The term 'fine dining' is all about exclusiveness. Right from the perfect décor to great staff services, you should expect and get the best of everything. Take a look at their website to know their settings and whether you can get the kind of services you want.
Lastly, you need a place that offers great ambience. For a family dinner, you would expect quiet time, especially without too many people around. The servers should be friendly and must take personal requests.
Of course, it is often hard to guess things about a restaurant, unless you have checked things personally. No wonder, most people like to check restaurant photos and reviews before taking the final decision for a great night out!

"Was it quality time with those friends?"
"More quality time than before, life spent together grows the amount of vulnerability shared."
I'm in a knot. I still do not have great friendships out here in San Diego. The good news is the older I get, the more I realize how life works. There's a paradoxical nature to our lives. I used to think I had to control everything, I was so convinced on how people would respond. I thought I had to have great relationships, which is great in all. The problem was that I thought I had to make sure others were that for me before I was that for them.
Since moving, I've learned not to control how others act but let time untangle those knots. Paradoxically, I've learned to control my actions and refuse to let time work out the knots.
Be disciplined in your actions but relax on everything else.
Are you like me and want to personally work out those knots in how other people act?

JS Hiei (DDH-142) was the second ship of the Haruna-class helicopter destroyer of the Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force.

Overview

These ships were Japan's first helicopter-equipped destroyer (DDH), and their greatest feature was that it can carry and operate three helicopters in spite of its 5000t class. Such ships, including the development-improved Shirane-class destroyer, can be said to be the only one in the world to this day, and strongly reflect Japan's special military ideology. In terms of equipment, it was the first self-defense ship to be equipped with a fin stabilizer to stabilize its attitude during helicopter operation, and a landing restraint device (bear trap) was installed to improve the safety and efficiency of flight work on a swaying ship.

Until the introduction of the Kongō-class destroyer (Aegis ship), this class (including the Shirane-class destroyer) were the largest escort ship of the JMSDF.

Construction and career
Hiei was laid down on 8 March 1972 and launched on 13 August 1973 by IHI Corporation Tokyo Shipyard. She was commissioned on 27 December 1974, into the 1st Escort Corps and deployed in Yokosuka.

From July 3 to August 17, 1978, she participated in Hawaii dispatch training with her sister ship JDS Haruna, JDS Kuroshio and eight P-2J aircraft.

JDS Hiei, JDS Amatsukaze and eight P-2Js were dispatched to the United States from January 25, 1980, and participated in the Exercise RIMPAC 1980 exercise between February 26 and March 18. They were the first ships to participate from Japan. Returned to Japan on April 2.

On March 30, 1983, the 51st Escort Corps was abolished and became a ship under the direct control of the 1st Escort Corps.

On March 30, 1984, she was incorporated into the 4th Escort Corps as a flagship.

The FRAM refurbishment carried out from August 31, 1987 to March 13, 1989 improved anti-submarine search capability, individual ship air defense capability, combat command / information processing capability, and electronic warfare capability. However, the cost-effectiveness of FRAM refurbishment was not efficient, and similar large-scale refurbishment was only carried out on two Haruna-class vessels.

On March 2, 1995, due to the relocation of the 4th Escort Group Command to Kure, the homeport was transferred to Kure.

In 1996, she participated in the Exercise RIMPAC 1996.

From May 11 to August 12, 1999, she participated in the US dispatch training with JDS Myōkō and JDS Amagiri.

Participated in the Japan-Russia search and rescue joint training conducted off the coast of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia from September 1 to 11, 2000 with JDS Hamagiri.

From May 16 to August 3, 2001, participated in the US dispatch training with the JDS Chōkai and JDS Samidare.

On September 17, 2002, based on the Act on Special Measures Against Terrorism, dispatched to the Indian Ocean with JDS Samidare. Engaged in missions until December of the same year, and returned to Japan on January 26, 2003.

On October 28, 2003, she was dispatched to the Indian Ocean along with JDS Akebono and JDS Tokiwa. Engaged in missions until January 2004 and returned to Japan on March 3.

From June 6 to 10, 2005, she visited Vladivostok, Russia, and participated in the Japan-Russia search and rescue joint training off the coast of Vladivostok on the 10th.

In 2006, she participated in the Exercise RIMPAC 2006.

On March 26, 2008, the escort corps was reorganized and transferred to the 4th Escort Corps.

From July 23 to 27, 2010, participated in the Japan-Russia search and rescue joint training SAREX off the coast of Vladivostok, Russia, with JS Jintsū.

On March 16, 2011, she was decommissioned. Her final affiliation was the 4th Escort Corps and the homeport was Kure. The commissioning period was 36 years and 3 months, which is the longest among the ships of the Maritime Self-Defense Force in history, with a cruising distance of about 44 laps around the earth and a voyage time of about 79,000 hours.

I have to say, I love delivering meals to our clients because they are truly appreciative. Last week had the pleasure of delivering to a gentleman who was sitting in his chair with a napkin and silverware at the ready on a tv tray in front of him. I get that instant gratification when I know that the food we are providing is a wonderful option for people that are unable to safely shop for and prepare their own meals. Instant gratification is selfish on my part but I own that because I know the recipient is genuinely thankful for not only a meal but that there are people that care about them.Until next time.

The appeal of the Pound took a knock after MPs approved a motion to reject the Irish backstop in favour of negotiating an alternative arrangement with the EU.
As EU leaders have repeatedly ruled out the reopening of negotiations on the matter this move left GBP exchange rates on the back foot as an air of uncertainty dominated market sentiment.
With the odds of a no-deal Brexit revised higher in the wake of the debate the Pound may have trouble recovering any particular sense of bullishness in the days ahead.
Any deterioration in the GfK consumer confidence index could put additional weight on the GBP/EUR exchange rate on Thursday as worries over Brexit mount.
Weaker-than-expected UK net consumer credit and mortgage approvals figures offered the Pound little cause for confidence this morning.
As annual consumer credit growth eased to its weakest level since late 2014 this suggests that consumers are reducing their borrowing, likely in response to Brexit-based uncertainty.
Although this easing limits the amount of household debt this could still impact negatively on economic activity in the months ahead.
Worries over the underlying health of the UK economy may pick up further if Friday's manufacturing PMI also loses momentum on the month.
The end to the long-running government shutdown helped to buoy the US Dollar against its rivals, even though the ultimate impact of the disruption remains to be seen.
However, USD exchange rates struggled to maintain any gains for long as January's consumer confidence index saw a sharp decline on the month.
The Federal Open Market Committee's (FOMC) first meeting of 2019 is unlikely to yield any change in policy, although this could still provoke volatility for the US Dollar.
Unless the Fed signals greater optimism in the economic outlook the US Dollar may struggle to capitalise on any fresh weakness of the Pound or Euro in the days ahead.
As the European Central Bank (ECB) adopted a more cautious tone at its January policy meeting the Euro came under fresh pressure.
With a 2019 interest rate hike looking an increasingly distant prospect investors saw limited incentive to favour the single currency, especially in the face of lacklustre Eurozone data.
Although the fourth quarter French gross domestic product delivered a positive surprise, holding steady at 0.3% on the quarter, this failed to encourage any EUR exchange rate rally.
Friday's Eurozone consumer price index data may put an additional dampener on the Euro if inflation shows further signs of easing at the start of 2019.
