Theft can be a misdemeanor or a felony charge, but even a misdemeanor conviction can have serious consequences. Not only can you face fines, jail time, and other penalties, but you could also have a permanent theft conviction that will show up on background checks, which may hinder job opportunities. If you are in this situation, an Austin theft lawyer could provide you with the representation you need.
When faced with theft accusations, you may be confused about where to turn for advice. While the stress can be overwhelming, a knowledgeable defense lawyer can provide the guidance you need.
According to Tex. Pen. Code § 31.03, theft occurs when individuals unlawfully take control of or appropriate property that belongs to another. To commit this offense, the individual must have the intent to deprive the property owner of its use or possession without their consent. Theft also occurs when someone illegally takes property knowing that another stole it or takes property from the custody of a law enforcement agency with the belief that it is stolen property.
Furthermore, the law presumes that a person has knowledge that they are dealing in stolen property in certain situations. For instance, those who own or work in pawn shops and junkyards must follow specific procedures to document the buying and selling of property. When they fail to do so, theft may be presumed. Anyone who was accused of theft may wish to immediately consult a theft lawyer in Austin for advice.
Most distinctions in theft charges occur as a result of the value of the goods or services allegedly involved. Typically, if the goods or services are worth less than $2,500, the charge is a misdemeanor. If the products or services are worth more than $2,500, the charge is a felony.
There are, however, exceptions to these rules. For instance, theft of any firearm or any item from a grave is a state jail felony, no matter its value. Other situations also can cause an increase in the level of the theft offense. In some cases, this results in an offense being charged as a felony rather than a misdemeanor. For example, if the value of the stolen property is less than $2,500 and the individual has two previous theft convictions of any level, the charge automatically becomes a state jail felony.
Misdemeanor and felony theft offenses are further subdivided into levels based on the value of the stolen goods or services. These classifications can result in a wide range of potential penalties, from a small fine to decades in prison and thousands in fines.
All of these factors can result in increased charges and penalties in addition to a permanent criminal record of a theft offense. Individuals charged with any level of offense should strongly consider working with an Austin theft attorney.
The most frightening aspect of criminal charges can be thinking about the impact that a conviction could have on your future personal and professional life. An Austin theft lawyer may have the legal skills and knowledge that you need when facing serious criminal charges.
Getting legal representation from the beginning of your case may be critical to a more desirable and successful resolution of your case. Call today to start protecting your rights.

Police have taken more than 60 knives off the streets of Nottinghamshire and arrested 14 people during a crackdown on knife crime.
As part of the Operation Sceptre week of action, 51 knives were handed in at amnesty bins in police stations, while another nine were seized by officers.
Officers also stopped and searched 121 people and carried out 49 weapons sweeps in open spaces.

It comes after 244 weapons, including knives, were handed in by members of the public during a successful two-week amnesty held by Nottinghamshire Police in August.
Under the Offensive Weapons Act 2019 it is now illegal to have certain types of knives and other items even at home in private, as well as it being an offence to carry them in public.
Nottinghamshire Police says figures show that knife crime in Nottinghamshire has fallen by 25 per cent in the last three years, including a 10 per cent drop in the year up to June 2021.
Superintendent Kathryn Craner, Nottinghamshire Police's knife crime lead, said: "Operation Sceptre is just a snapshot of our ongoing proactive work across the city and county to drive down knife crime and remove potentially lethal weapons off the streets and out of the hands of offenders.
"I'd like to thank the public of Nottinghamshire for their continued support and for taking the opportunity to hand in knives as we continue to tackle knife crime by working together.
"While knife crime has reduced significantly in Nottinghamshire we will never be complacent.
"We understand the devastating consequences knife crime can have on peoples' lives on all sides which is why we continue to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with our partners and communities in doing everything we can to keep people safe and stop people carrying knives in the first place."
Nottinghamshire Police has two dedicated knife crime teams that work all year round targeting criminals who carry weapons and drugs on the streets, alongside ongoing partnership work and initiatives to further reduce knife crime.
The force has dedicated schools and early intervention officers to educate people, including delivering sessions to students and staff, and joint initiatives such as the National Justice Museum partnering with the Ben Kinsella Trust to deliver the Choices and Consequences anti-knife crime workshops.
Nottinghamshire Police and Crime Commissioner Caroline Henry said: "I am proud of the steps police and partners have taken to tackle knife crime here in Nottinghamshire. Whilst we are seeing significant successes in tackling this crime, we must continue to do more to ensure our families and communities do not feel the devastating impacts of knife crime."
Lyrico Steede (Image: Nottinghamshire Police)
Police cadets at the Lyrico Steede base in Bulwell also designed anti-knife crime posters in support of Operation Sceptre.
Lyrico, who was 17, was stabbed on 13 February 2018 and died five days later.
The cadet base in his memory, aimed at 11-16-year-olds, is at the Crabtree Farm Community Centre, less than half a mile away from where he was killed.
Natalie Baker-Swift, interim head of the Violence Reduction Unit, said: "Operation Sceptre sheds light on the positive work that takes place throughout the year, and whilst it is constructive to take weapons off the streets, it is important that we are continuing to complement this and other enforcement techniques with preventative interventions which support young people to achieve more positive outcomes and prevent them from picking up a weapon in the first place.
"I am really encouraged by the ongoing partnership work taking place to reduce serious violence and knife crime in our city and county."

One hears a beracha being said over the telephone or from a live broadcast answers amen to the beracha. This is true even if there is a slight delay from the time the words are said until they are heard. However, one cannot fulfill his requirement to say a specific beracha by hearing it over the radio or telephone. For example, one who hears havdala over the phone answers amen but then still must say it on his own. The same is true with regards to a loudspeaker or a microphone. Even if one wouldn't be able to hear the beracha without the microphone, he still answers amen. On the flip side, one who hears a beracha from a recording does not answer amen.


I have a minor amendment to Worcester State College President Janelle Ashley�s As I See It, �From college to university� (Telegram & Gazette, Aug. 13).
I was hired in September of 1959 by the State Teachers College at Worcester (not Worcester State Teachers College). On Jan. 1, 1960, the name was changed to the State College at Worcester. Two years later it became Worcester State College. Insignificant points, but I wanted to make it clear what the sequence in names of the college was.
If I remember correctly, when Lowell State College became a university, the name was Lowell University, not the University of Lowell or at Lowell. I trust the state colleges in October will follow the pattern used at Lowell for consistency.

The rich are buying more Rolls-Royces than ever before – "because life is short"
In its 117-year history, the luxury car manufacturer Rolls-Royce has never sold as many cars as it did in 2021. The brand also has an explanation for why things are going so well during the pandemic.
The premium brand Rolls-Royce has had a fantastic 2021.
According to CEO Torsten Müller-Otvos, this has to do directly with Corona.
The Black Badge Ghost model is the refined version of the basic Ghost.
Rolls-Royce sold a whopping 49 percent more cars than in 2021 Previous year.
With 5586 copies, it was the best sales year of all time.
One of the reasons for this is the pandemic: People would have realized that life can be short and wanted to enjoy today.
The traditional British manufacturer Rolls-Royce sold almost 50 percent more cars last year than last year. A total of 5586 luxury cars went to buyers all over the world, as the BMW subsidiary announced on Monday. 2021 was a "phenomenal year" for Rolls-Royce, explained company boss Torsten Müller-Ötvös.
Rolls-Royce has delivered more cars than ever in the company's 117-year history. There was great demand all over the world – for example for the basic Ghost model or the 2.6-ton Cullinan SUV. Rolls-Royce is currently working on its first electric model called the Specter.
Müller-Ötvös also has an explanation as to why the demand for the luxury cars – which cost between 300,000 and 544,000 francs in Great Britain – was so high last year. The "Daily Mail" quotes him: "Many people in their environment have seen people die of Covid-19 and that has led them to think about the fact that life is short and it is better to live it now than to postpone it until later."
Most have more than one Rolls
This has "massively stimulated" her to invest in things "that I would call beautiful, lovely things". People couldn't have traveled a lot or invested in luxury services, but "a lot of money" accumulated that was spent on luxury goods. "It was a phenomenal year", summarizes Müller-Ötvös. Many buyers would have expanded their collections – most Rolls fans would own more than one model.
The near future also promises good figures: the order books will be full well into the third quarter of 2022. This is also because the waiting time for a new car is around a year. The current bestsellers are the Ghost and the Cullinan SUV, which together account for 40 percent of sales. The electric Specter should then come onto the market in 2023.

Marin County Residence (2004) by Dirk Denison Architects located in California, USA. This house is designed on one level to provide a barrier-free environment and to capitalize on the potential for an internalized landscape. The plan is based upon an irregular grid, which informs all elements of its composition. Each programmatic function is contained within an individual building to respond to its specific needs. This enables each space to form a distinct relationship with its own courtyard or garden. The ceiling plane is fractured and folded along a diagonal pattern, exploring the interplay of light in unique ways.
These spatial volumes are bound together by an enclosing perimeter wall, which creates a single form out of a village of buildings and landscapes. The irregular pattern of openings in this simple wall hints at the home's underlying geometry and expresses the various functions contained within.

20 Best Putlocker Alternatives (That REALLY Work) in 2022
Written by admin2 Published on September 3, 2022
This post has a list of the best websites like Putlocker that you can use to stream videos on the web. There are both free movie sites and paid streaming services on the list.
Putlocker is the most popular way to watch movies and TV shows online for free. After this service was shut down, people who used it started looking for other options. There are a lot of websites that let you stream videos for free, but not all of them are as good as Putlocker.
Before making this list, we tried out a lot of these kinds of websites. I hope this post will help you.
What is Putlocker?
Putlocker is the name of a group of websites where you can stream movies and TV shows. All of the Putlocker sites have the name "Putlocker," but their domain extensions are different.
In 2010 and 2011, the website was made in the UK. After Megaupload shut down, the site started getting millions of users from all over the world in a short amount of time.
Putlocker was one of the best websites in the whole world. Putlocker was one of the top 250 websites, according to Alexa.
After a court order, the UK government banned and blocked the site because it broke copyright laws.
Putlocker Official Website History
After the original Putlocker website went down, the streaming service changed the address of the website many times.
Sites with the name "Putlocker" kept getting blocked, so the owners kept moving to different domains. Some of the most popular websites that Putlocker worked with were putlocker.is, putlocker.ch, putlocker.rs, putlocker.com, putlocker.ac, putlocker.io, and putlocker.today.
Because Putlockers were so popular, dozens of copycat or mirror sites popped up, and many of them still work.
No one knows if the original owners of Putlocker still run and maintain one of the clones. Still, Putlocker has become a synonym for streaming on websites.
Is Putlocker site still available?
As I said, there are a lot of sites that look like Putlocker and are running. But no one knows for sure if the original website still works or not.
In fact, one of the Putlocker alternatives I'm talking about in this article could just as easily be Putlocker itself. But there is no proof, and we don't even know if the official Putlocker site is still up and running.
Is Putlocker Legal and Safe?
The UK government shut down Putlocker's original site after the High Court told them to. The site has been seen as one of the biggest threats to piracy. So, it's clear that the site is against the law, at least according to the UK High Court.
There is free content on websites like Putlocker. They make money by putting up ads. Since it's not clear if these sites are legal or not, they may not be safe either. Most of these sites have a lot of pop-up ads, which could take you to spam sites or download malware on your device if you click on them.
Fake Putlocker Websites
Several fake Putlocker sites have been found and reported. Users have reported that these sites send them to other sketchy sites that either put malware on their devices or steal their personal information.
You should be careful if you go to a website that looks like one of the Putlockers. Only go to a website if you are sure you want to.
Best Putlocker Alternatives
In this section, we'll talk about both legal sites and sites like Putlocker that let you watch videos for free. I strongly suggest that you only stream content from legal websites or services that have the rights to copy or distribute the content. When you watch from these places, you won't have to worry about your safety.
Let's start with high-quality legal sites. Later, you'll find a list of free legal sites and free sites like Putlocker that are not run by the government.
Premium Movie Sites to Replace Putlocker
Before we get started, I want to talk about the pros and cons of watching content on legal websites or streaming services.
You won't get hurt if you watch these sites.
You don't have to worry about ISP blocking or government spying.
You can stream in up to 4K quality on many legal services. You don't have to worry about downloading malware, viruses, etc.
Usually requires a paid subscription.
You may need to sign up for more than one service to watch everything you want.
Here is a list of the top 5 legal sites that should be replaced. Putlocker
1. Prime Video
Prime Video from Amazon is one of the most popular ways to watch videos online these days. Like with Putlocker, you can use your Prime account to log into this service's online portal and stream it in a web browser. Amazon Prime, of course, also has apps for phones and TVs.
There are a lot of original shows on Prime, like Fleabag, Jack Ryan, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and more. It has a lot of movies, shows, documentaries, sports shows, content for kids, and more, in addition to the Originals.
Amazon Prime is, without a doubt, one of the best streaming services to have.

2. Netflix
Netflix is a name that doesn't need to be said. This giant in streaming has been around for over 20 years. Netflix is the largest media platform in the world. It has more than 150 million subscribers.
Netflix is the only streaming service with more originals than any other service. It also has a huge collection of movies, TV shows, documentaries, and a lot more. Due to copyright restrictions, Netflix doesn't let all of its content streams in all regions. However, it's easy to unblock Netflix with a good VPN.
If you want a legal alternative to Putlocker, Netflix could be your best bet.
Site link – https://www.netflix.com/
3. Disney+
The streaming service Disney+ (or Disney Plus) is very new. It came out in November 2019, and right now you can only get it in a few countries.
Several originals were used to start this platform. It also has the only rights to stream content from the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the Star Wars series.
Even though Disney+ is new, it has already become a big deal in the entertainment world.
Website – https://www.disneyplus.com/
4. Hulu
Hulu is another streaming service that is very popular in the US. Few people know that The Walt Disney Company owns both Disney+ and Hulu.
Hulu has a lot of movies, TV shows, documentaries, and other things that you can watch whenever you want. It is also known for its Originals, like the popular The Handmaid's Tale.
Hulu also has a service called "Live TV," which you can get by paying an extra fee.
Site link – https://www.hulu.com/welcome
5. Vudu
Vudu is a company that rents out digital copies of movies and TV shows online. It is owned by Walmart. Other services on this list let you sign up for a subscription, but with Vudu, you have to pay the rent or buy the movie or TV season.
You can rent individual episodes on Vudu instead of buying the whole show or season. It has almost every movie or TV show you could want.
Website link – https://www.vudu.com/
Free (legal) Sites Like Putlocker
There are also some free and legal sites that can be used as a good alternative to Putlocker. Most of these sites are made possible by ads, which is how they make money. The list is below.
1. Popcornflix
PopcornFlix is a website where you can watch movies for free, while the other legal services on this list require a paid subscription. It is a web streaming platform that is paid for by ads.
Most of this site's movies and TV shows come from independent production companies. You might not find the most-read articles here. But there are some interesting ways to stream that you should check out.
Popcornflix does not require any signup or login. You can start immediately.
Website URL – https://www.popcornflix.com
2. Pluto TV
Pluto TV is another free streaming site that's currently available in the US, Canada, and a few European countries. This platform lets you watch Live TV as well as movies and shows that you can watch whenever you want.
Pluto TV has teamed up with more than 70 content providers and gets licenses from them to show their shows. Pluto TV is one of the biggest free streaming services that is supported by ads. It has more than 20 million users every month.
Website link – https://pluto.tv/
3. Snagfilms
Snagfilms is a great site for people who like to watch independent movies and documentaries. This streaming service has a lot of this kind of content, and many of them have been praised by critics and won awards.
You don't have to sign up to watch most of the videos. SnagFilms is free for everyone to use, and it makes money by showing ads. It lets you watch more than 5,000 movies right now.
I think Snagfilms is a good alternative to Putlocker if you want to stream movies and TV shows for free and in the right way.
Website – https://www.snagfilms.com/
4. Crackle
Crackle is a well-known name in the world of streaming. Crackle is owned by Sony and lets you watch free TV shows and movies. Between the videos, there are sometimes ads that bring in money for the company.
The company offers both its own content and content that it has licensed from other providers.
On Crackle, you can watch great old TV shows and movies. But there are also some new things in it.
Website – https://www.crackle.com/
5. Tubi TV
Tubi TV is a website where you can watch movies and TV shows for free. At the moment, it has more than 15,000 movies and TV shows.
More than 20 million people use this service every month. It has licensed content from companies like Paramount Pictures, Warner Bros., Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Lionsgate, and Universal Pictures.
Tubi TV is a service that is paid for by ads, so commercials will play more than once while you watch a video.
You don't have to sign up to watch videos. But if you have an account, you can sync your streaming data across devices.
Site URL – https://tubitv.com/
NOTE: The next part of the article talks about piracy websites, which are free movie sites like Putlocker. I'm giving the list to you as a source of information. We (Fire Stick Tips) don't like it when people steal our work. Please think about what you do and follow the rules in your area.
Disclaimer: This tutorial is just for learning. FireStickTips.com does not own, host, run, resell, or distribute any streaming apps, addons, IPTV, or services. Some of the services on the page haven't been checked, and we're not sure if they have legal permission to share the content. FireStickTips.com does not check if each app or service is legal in every country. If you use an app or service that hasn't been verified, make sure to do your research and only stream content that is in the public domain. Media access will be the sole responsibility of the end user.
Free Putlocker Alternatives
In this part, we'll talk about sites like Putlocker that let you watch movies for free. These sites are known to be pirate sites, and it is likely that they stream content without a license. If you stream from these sites, you might get into trouble. Since the government shut down Putlocker, these sites could be the next ones to go.
Let's look at the good and bad things about free streaming sites.
Almost all of the content can be found on a single website.
No need to go to different places of business
Most of these sites let you stream in high quality for free and don't require you to sign up (up to 1080p)
Streaming from these sites could get you in trouble with the law.
These sites may infect your device by downloading malware or other harmful programs in the background.
They could steal information about you.
How to access Putlocker websites safely
We do not encourage copyright violations. We urge you to stream content on websites that are allowed to do so. But let me show you how to stay safe if you still want to stream from sites like Putlocker.
When streaming from free sites, you should definitely use a VPN. A VPN will keep your connection safe, hide your IP address, and protect you from the government, your ISP, and even hackers.
Also, some of these sites are blocked in some countries because of their location. So, to access them, you must use a VPN.
I use ExpressVPN myself and recommend it to others. It is not only the safest VPN you can buy but also the fastest. ExpressVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee, which gives you plenty of time to try out its services. On its annual plans, you can also save 49% and get 3 months for free.
Let me show you how to use ExpressVPN in just three easy steps.
Step 1: Sign up for an ExpressVPN account HERE.
Step 2: Click HERE to get the ExpressVPN app and set it up on your device.
Step 3: To connect to a VPN server, open the ExpressVPN app and click the Power icon.
So, that's it. Your connection is now safe with the fastest and best VPN for streaming.

There are various permissions and considerations in order to operate a drone for aerial filming in London.
Drones may also be referred to as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), Small Unmanned Aircraft (SUA) or Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS).
Control over the area you intend to use the drone within. This includes any persons or vehicles in the area.
All commercial drone operators must be in possession of a CAA permission document. Any drone flight in an urban area or near large crowds of people, whether for private or commercial purposes, will require the same document.
The CAA grants permission for multi-rotor and fixed-wing type, and will only grant permission for drones that do not exceed 20kg.
Productions using drones for filming purposes must ensure they are familiar with aircraft legislation and procedures that relate to aerial filming in London.
Due to the nature of the local airspace and the density of population there are some important restrictions on the operation of aircraft in and around the capital.
CAA Information Notice 2014/190, point 6.1.4, states: "In any circumstances or weight category, it should be noted that flights directly overhead persons and vehicles will not be allowed at any height in a congested area unless they are under the control of the person in charge of the aircraft"
A full closure of the road or area to be used will usually need to be in place before the drone can be used.
Drone operators should liaise with the organisation or individual responsible for the land required for take-off and landing to obtain permission.
They will also need to ensure that the land below the flight-path is either clear of people and vehicles by the requisite distances, or that access to the surface is restricted and any people and vehicles are under control of the operator. Drones should not be flown over people, vessels or vehicles that are not in control of the production.
For many public locations in London, including most streets and parks, the location contact will be the local Borough Film Service.
For other London locations, please check Popular Locations, contact the land owner or authority directly, or speak to us on 020 7613 7683 or locations@filmlondon.org.uk.
The drone operator is responsible for obtaining permission to fly within any restricted airspace in London. Restricted areas include Hyde Park (EG R157), City of London (EG R158) and Isle of Dogs (EG R159). Restricted areas are marked on aviation charts and listed in the UK Aeronautical Information Package (UK AIP).
Flight within these areas is restricted for all types of aircraft, whether manned or unmanned. To obtain permission the drone operator must apply for Enhanced Non-Standard Flight clearance via the NATS website, using the procedures detailed at point ENR 1.1-18 in the UK AIP.
This clearance is also mandatory for all flights below 1400 feet above sea level.
The Information Commissioner's Office has issued guidelines regarding privacy and the use of drones for filming purposes.
Film London provides guidance on copyright, privacy and other legal considerations when filming people or buildings.
Public Liability cover of at least £5m will be required when using drones to film in London. Under some circumstances this may need to be increased.

There's apparently now a great deal of controversy over the proposed construction of a new telescope atop Mauna Kea in Hawaii. While the project was approved several years ago, some Native Hawaiian are attempting to stop construction and so far have been successful in delaying things. The Times is calling on the governor to step in to try to resolve the controversy rather than leave things where they are now – with the governor not really making any meaningful statement while the project is stuck in some sort of limbo where it is approved but can't be built.

Located approximately 10 miles west of Malibu, you'll find El Matador State Park. It is one of three "pocket beaches" that make up the Robert H. Meyer State Beach on this lovely stretch of the Pacific Coast Highway.
If you are in the Malibu area, I encourage to wait for a parking spot in the very limited parking lot of this beach, or park along the PCH and walk in. You won't regret it whether you're going to take photos like this one or if you are going to enjoy the beach.
For this particular photo, I set up my tripod and camera just off the path down to the beach. You really can't miss it.

74% Of Organizations Have Or Will Build Custom Mobile Apps According To New InformationWeek Reports Research
But there's no consensus on development method: Native platform and browser turned in identical numbers, though native has a three point edge for plans to build on apps currently in place
InformationWeek Reports (reports.informationweek.com), a service provider for peer-based IT research and analysis, announced the release of its latest research report. App Dev in the Age of Mobility encompasses analysis of results from InformationWeek's recent Mobile Application Development Surveyand guides readers in setting a strategy for empowering employees and customers with custom applications for smartphones and tablets. Of the 350 business technology professionals responding to this poll, 25% are from organizations with 10,000 or more employees.
IT teams that want to develop mobile apps are torn between methodologies. They worry that employees and customers accustomed to slick native apps will spurn browser-based versions, but native development complicates cross-platform code reuse—a factor cited as critical or important by 64%. Meanwhile, 52% of those building native applications say they can't get the functionality needed in a browser app, a legitimate concern until HTML5 matures.
71% of our survey respondents identify the Apple iPhone as the top target for both native and browser-optimized custom apps, compared with 64% for Android phones and just 22% for BlackBerry.
55% cite coding for differences in Internet Explorer, Safari, Android, Opera and Chrome as a top challenge when developing browser-based applications.
50% say cross-platform support is a critical feature in IDEs used for mobile apps.
20% of those with no plans to develop native custom or browser-based mobile applications cite security as a reason.
The report author, Kurt Marko, is editor at large for InformationWeek Reports and an IT industry veteran.

"It's unfortunate that HTML5 isn't more mature," says Lorna Garey, content director of InformationWeek Reports. "But most companies can't afford to sit on the sidelines. There are ways to get code reuse without sacrificing functionality, as we discuss in our report, by using hybrid methods with native UIs that link to browser-based back ends for data access."

Tiffany Haddish Lands Star Role in "The Lego Movie 2"
03/25/2018	Kara Straight
via Instagram / Tiffany Haddish
Tiffany Haddish's career has been on fire lately, and she just added yet another gig to the list: The Lego Movie 2.
According to Variety, the actress/comedian just landed a star role in The Lego Movie sequel, though further details are unknown.
The 38-year-old began her career in front of the screen as an extra until she began making a name for herself in 2014 in the television drama If Loving You Is Wrong. She then had her breakout moment in 2017, with the release of Girl's Trip, in which she hilariously played the part of Dina. From that moment on, her career exploded and her face was everywhere we turned.
Haddish recently became the first black female stand-up comedian to host Saturday Night Live! and will soon be the first black woman to host the MTV Movie & TV Awards this June. Aside from her record-breaking moments, the actress has several projects up her sleeve.
Try to stay with me as all of Haddish's upcoming projects are listed: the TBS comedy series The Last O.G., Tyler Perry's The List, Night School alongide Kevin Hart, The Kitcken with Melissa McCarthy, Uncle Drew, Limited Partners, The Temp, The Oath, AND an adult animated series called Turc and Bertie. Not to mention, she just signed two separate deals with Netflix and HBO. How one person has time for all of this, we don't know, but Haddish is definitely in her bag.
The Lego Movie 2 is set to release on Feb. 8. 2019 and will be starring other big names such as Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, and Channing Tatum.

The computation of the degree of the greatest common divisor of three Bernstein basis polynomials
Bourne, M., Winkler, J.R. and Su, Y. (2020) The computation of the degree of the greatest common divisor of three Bernstein basis polynomials. Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 373. 112373. ISSN 0377-0427
This paper considers the application of the Sylvester resultant matrix to the computation of the degree of the greatest common divisor (GCD) of three Bernstein basis polynomials f (y), g(y) and h(y). It is shown that the governing equations can be written in two forms, which lead to different Sylvester matrices. The first form requires that the polynomials be considered in pairs, but different pairs of polynomials may yield different computational answers, for example, the solution of the computations GCD (f , g) and GCD (g, h) may differ from the solution of the computations GCD (f , g) and GCD (f , h), depending on f (y), g(y) and h(y). This problem does not arise when the second form is considered, which requires that the three polynomials be considered simultaneously. Complications arise in both forms because of the combinatorial terms in the Bernstein basis functions, which cause the entries of the matrices to span several orders of magnitude, even if the coefficients of the polynomials are of the same order of magnitude. It is shown that the adverse effects of this wide range of magnitudes can be mitigated by postmultiplying both forms of the Sylvester matrix by a diagonal matrix of combinatorial terms and preprocessing f (y), g(y) and h(y) by three operations. Results of GCD computations from the two forms of the Sylvester matrix when f (y), g(y) and h(y) are perturbed by noise, and with the omission and inclusion of the preprocessing operations, are shown.

Turkey ( i/ˈtɜːrki/; Turkish: Türkiye [ˈtyɾcije]), officially the Republic of Turkey (Turkish: Türkiye Cumhuriyeti ), is a parliamentary republic in Eurasia, largely located in Western Asia, with the smaller portion of Eastern Thrace in Southeast Europe. Turkey is bordered by eight countries: Syria and Iraq to the south; Iran, Armenia, and the Azerbaijani exclave of Nakhchivan to the east; Georgia to the northeast; Bulgaria to the northwest; and Greece to the west. The Black Sea is to the north, the Mediterranean Sea to the south, and the Aegean Sea to the west. The Bosphorus, the Sea of Marmara, and the Dardanelles (which together form the Turkish Straits) demarcate the boundary between Thrace and Anatolia; they also separate Europe and Asia. Turkey's location at the crossroads of Europe and Asia makes it a country of significant geostrategic importance.
Turkey has been inhabited since the paleolithic age, including various ancient Anatolian civilizations, Aeolian, Dorian and Ionian Greeks, Thracians, Armenians, and Assyrians. After Alexander the Great's conquest, the area was Hellenized, a process which continued under the Roman Empire and its transition into the Byzantine Empire. The Seljuk Turks began migrating into the area in the 11th century, starting the process of Turkification, which was greatly accelerated by the Seljuk victory over the Byzantines at the Battle of Manzikert in 1071. The Seljuk Sultanate of Rûm ruled Anatolia until the Mongol invasion in 1243, upon which it disintegrated into several small Turkish beyliks.

Türkiye ("Turkey" in Turkish) is a Turkish newspaper. Notable contributors include Rahîm Er.

Türkiye's parent company, İhlas Gazetecilik, was floated on the Istanbul Stock Exchange in 2010 (33% of shares, with the remainder owned by İhlas Holding).

SPORT magazine was an American sports magazine. Launched in September 1946 by the New York-based publisher, Macfadden Publications, SPORT pioneered the generous use of color photography – it carried eight full color plates in its first edition.
SPORT predated the launch of Sports Illustrated by eight years, and is remembered for bringing several editorial innovations to the genre, as well as creating, in 1955, the SPORT Magazine Award. The SPORT Award, given initially to the outstanding player in baseball's World Series (Johnny Podres of the Brooklyn Dodgers was the inaugural winner), was later expanded to include the pre-eminent post-season performer in the other three major North American team sports. What made SPORT the most distinctive from Sports Illustrated, however, was the fact it was a monthly magazine as opposed to SI's weekly distribution.
SPORT was published continually between its launch and August 2000, when its then-owner, British publisher EMAP PLC, made the decision to close the money-losing title. Today, the photo archive of SPORT, which represents one of the most significant collections of 20th century sports photography in North America, is housed in Toronto and Vancouver, Canada, at The SPORT Gallery.

EcoFactor, the leader in cloud-based home energy services, formally announced the launch of its HVAC Performance Monitoring (HPM) service after completion of a successful HVAC trial evaluating thousands of homes. Using patented cloud-based analytics algorithms and pattern recognition, the service remotely detects, analyzes and notifies consumers of HVAC performance issues. This early warning service is delivered through EcoFactor's SaaS energy analytics platform and expands the company's current offerings, which include residential energy efficiency and demand response. HPM can deliver real energy efficiency savings on top of the 10–15 percent savings already achieved through EcoFactor's patented automation service.
The results of the trial support the widely-held belief in the HVAC industry that millions of American homes have problems with their heating and cooling systems that go undetected – problems that represent big opportunities to save both energy and money. More significant was the finding that many of these issues can be accurately recognized through data analytics. EcoFactor discovered that six percent of all households in the trial had HVAC system problems that wasted energy and often compromised comfort as well. Furthermore, 68 percent of consumers who experienced issues were unaware that there was a problem. Many of the issues uncovered by EcoFactor's HPM service would likely have resulted in catastrophic equipment failure possibly costing thousands of dollars to fix if left untreated.
"HVAC dealers will line up for this service because it enhances the value of their HVAC service contracts and lowers customer acquisition costs. In addition, keeping a product running at peak efficiency over its lifetime provides pervasive savings, making it ideally suited for utility energy efficiency incentives. Many utilities are in the process of integrating fault detection into their energy efficiency programs," says Tom Kerber, Director of Research at Parks & Associates.
The mandatory inclusion of Fault Detection and Diagnostics (FDD) in commercial roof top HVAC systems in building codes such as California's Title 24, effective July 2014, will alter the HVAC industry. The ability to diagnose faults with remote analytics will be a powerful alternative to expensive hardware solutions.
•	Real-time analysis – Early detection can help reduce the number of catastrophic failures and improve long-term energy efficiency. EcoFactor software detects various levels of performance degradation from small to severe issues such as leaking coolant.
•	Proactive customer notifications – Regular reports are provided with information that can be distributed to consumers. EcoFactor APIs can be used to integrate the notifications into existing customer communications infrastructure.
•	Customer support tools – Extensive customer support tools that can integrate with current energy audit programs and help increase customer engagement and satisfaction.
•	Partner integration – Utilities and service providers can gain a customizable service for deployment on their own mobile and/or web applications.
•	95 percent of homes EcoFactor identified as having HVAC issues did in fact have an issue when the homes were visited by a licensed HVAC technician.
•	Issues confirmed upon inspection ranged from mild to severe, from coolant to coil issues, improper placement of the thermostat to wiring issues.
•	The average cost of repair was estimated to be more than $300. The study showed 68 percent of home occupants did not feel significant enough impact on comfort to recognize there was a problem before the issues were detected.

John Ivison: Byelections offer every party leader an opportunity to declare victory
Jagmeet Singh won Burnaby South through hope and hard work, but it masked crushing defeat and poor shows elsewhere

The morning after three federal byelections was like an elementary school sports day, with all the party leaders wearing their participation medals — "If you had fun, you won" — and claiming victory.
In the B.C. riding of Burnaby South, the NDP's Jagmeet Singh celebrated a win that paves his way, after 16 months as leader, to a seat in the House of Commons.
John Ivison: Byelections offer every party leader an opportunity to declare victory Back to video
To be fair to him, he won the prize through hope and hard work, and no one can ever take his newly won legitimacy away from him (at least not until October).
But the festivities did rather mask a crushing defeat in Outremont where the NDP lost the Quebec seat held by Tom Mulcair in three successive general elections. It also ignored a poor performance in the York-Simcoe byelection in the commuter belt north of Toronto, where the party recorded just 7.5 per cent of the vote.
The Liberals claimed the win in Outremont, taking an opposition seat for the third time in this Parliament — a feat not matched since 1908. It seems that Quebecers do appreciate the Herculean efforts being made by this Prime Minister to place their interests ahead of the rest of the country, on issues ranging from pipelines to the current SNC-Lavalin saga.
If the 18 point drop in support for the NDP in Outremont is repeated across the province in October, the Liberals could add another 10 to 15 seats to their tally. Yet there was a notable enthusiasm gap between 2015 and now that bodes ill for the party. In York-Simcoe, the Liberal vote share slipped significantly (to 29 per cent from 38 per cent) even though the candidate, Shaun Tanaka, was the same.
The Conservatives earned themselves a victory lap in York-Simcoe with Scot Davidson's win. They will be delighted that Maxime Bernier's People's Party earned just 2 per cent of the vote in that riding and in Outremont.
If the 18 point drop in support for the NDP in Outremont is repeated across the province in October, the Liberals could add another 10 to 15 seats to their tally
But they will be disconcerted by the 11 per cent of the vote won by the PPC's Laura-Lynn Thompson, a former Christian talk show host, in Burnaby. The average People's Party vote across the three by-elections was 5.6 per cent — potentially the difference between victory and defeat for Andrew Scheer, if replicated in a general election.
Bernier professed himself "disappointed" with the results in Ontario and Quebec but said overall there were signs of progress for his five-month-old party. "This is the beginning of our journey. We are in it for the long haul," he said.
That would be a fair prediction were it not for the fundamental contradiction at the core of Bernier's populist party: it is led by a libertarian free-marketer and supported by anti-globalists. One day soon, his followers may realize they don't share the same agenda as their leader.

Even the Greens could afford to be triumphant. Their candidate in Outremont, Daniel Green (bien sur), picked up 12.5 per cent of the vote, indicating an openness to trying something new among voters tired of a Liberal Party that has broken too many promises, a Conservative Party that is apathetic about climate change and an NDP that has appeared to be in disarray.
While all parties (except the Bloc) had something to cheer about, the real loser was Canadian democracy.
The York-Simcoe byelection is the first I can find on the Elections Canada website where voter turnout dipped below 20 per cent. Fewer than one in five eligible voters bothered to go to the polls, which is a pretty miserable state of affairs.
Outremont was only marginally better, at 21.4 per cent. Rachel Bendayan is now a member of the Canadian parliament having won just 6,086 votes. Every single councillor but one on Toronto city council received more votes in the 2018 municipal election.

This reflects a level of disillusionment apparent among voters since the sunny ways of 2015, when turnout in the general election reached 68.5 per cent, 10 points up on the record low of 2008.
There is a debate among academics about the declining support for democracy among millennials.
One disconcerting graph that appeared in the Journal of Democracy in 2016 suggested that young people in Western countries like the U.S. and Great Britain are losing faith in democracy, with only one in four Americans born in the 1980s believing that "it is essential to live in a democracy." That survey has been criticized for its methodology but even the critics agree that, on average, younger people assign lower value to democracy than the generation who lived, or whose parents lived, through the Second World War.
Canada wasn't included in that study — and the 57 per cent turnout of 18-24 year olds in the 2015 election (up from 39 per cent in 2011) suggested it might be a beacon of hope.
But there has been decline in voter turnout since then, even judging by the historically low rate seen in byelections. One suspects the Liberals' failure to deliver on specific promises like electoral reform and the more general pledge to "do politics differently" have not enamoured them to younger voters. Neither has the Conservative Party's apparent disinterest in climate change inspired millennials to head to the polls.

Liberal turmoil a 'gift' to NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh in B.C. byelection: expert
Elections are determined by the people who show up. Studies done after the 2015 election suggest the Conservatives had — and likely still have — an advantage among voters older than 60.
Those people voted in large numbers in 2015 (78.8 per cent of 65-74 years olds voted) and electoral history suggests they will do so again this year.
That prospect may cheer Conservatives. But nobody should be upbeat about the fact that enthusiasm for government of the people, by the people, for the people is waning, and putting our democracy in peril.
A clarification: in Monday's column, I quoted former judge Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond as calling for an RCMP investigation into the SNC-Lavalin affair. She writes to say she supports such an investigation, if there is any evidence Jody Wilson-Raybould was fired as attorney general because she refused under pressure to change her position in favour of a deferred prosecution agreement.

Reigning champions Ignatius Park College Townsville made a strong start to their Confraternity Shield defence with two wins on the opening day of the Catholic schoolboy rugby league carnival in Brisbane.
Ignatius Park College defeated St Patrick's College (Mackay) 18-0 in one of the headline clashes at the Confraternity Carnival, which brings together teams from 48 schools across Queensland.
Ignatius Park College (five wins) and St Patrick's Mackay (eight wins) are among the most successful teams in the 38-year history of the Confraternity Shield. St Brendan's College (Yeppoon) with 13 wins is the most successful school.
St Brendan's, which lost last year's final to Ignatius Park, started strongly with a 24-10 win over St Teresa's College, Abergowrie.
The Confraternity Carnival is contested in three divisions and continues to grow in popularity, producing a stellar list of graduates including Johnathan Thurston, Wendell Sailor, Anthony Milford, Ben Hunt, Matt Bowen, Matt Scott, Nate Myles and new Origin player Coen Hess.
In total, the carnival has seen 150 NRL players, 30 State of Origin representatives and 20 Kangaroos.
Milford, the Broncos' star playmaker, attended the opening day's matches (Monday, June 26) to watch his former school St Peter Claver College, Riverview.
Schools from southeast Queensland, which play rugby union during their inter-school competitions, continue to embrace the annual carnival.
Host Padua College, Kedron, Marist College, Ashgrove and St Patrick's College, Shorncliffe, were the most successful teams in this year's AIC schools competition and all contested matches today in Division 1.
Padua College, which featured in the inaugural Confraternity Carnival in 1980, defeated Emmaus College, Rockhampton, 20-10 in their opening pool match.
In other Division 1 matches, St Mary's College, Toowoomba, defeated Marymount College, Burleigh, 18-8; while The Rockhampton Grammar School overcame St Augustine's College, Cairns, 56-0.
In the opening Division 1 match, Ignatius Park College overcame Aquinas College, Ashmore, 46-8.
Padua College Rector Peter Elmore said the opening day showcased the most important elements of the Confraternity Carnival.
"It keeps getting larger every year, but this Carnival is still about sportsmanship, respect and fellowship," Mr Elmore said.
The carnival continues today (June 27) with each school playing another two matches of 20-minute halves in the pool stage. After Wednesday's rest day, finals will be played on Thursday and Friday.

Scott's debut novel unravels the tangled family secrets surrounding an ancestral Philadelphia manse and its deceased owner, Maribel Archibald Davies, the well-born painter and family matriarch who led a quasi-bohemian life (complete with free love and scandals, but minus the poverty). Elizabeth Oliver, the manager of the estate sale, arrives at the mansion, Calpurnia, to discover a morass of resentments and scheming among Maribel's relatives and ex-hangers-on. The mysterious circumstances of Maribel's death (murder? suicide?) foster an atmosphere of suspense. Maribel's prodigal son, Coby, has astounded his relatives and even himself with a series of spectacular failures, which lead to much suspicion about his role in his mother's death. Nina English, Maribel's beloved niece, harbors her own furtive intentions, which she covers by graciously yet pointedly accusing others. Neighbor Peg, reverent and protective of the deceased, keeps an eye on all from behind the safety of her window curtain. With her own jumbled secrets to hide, Elizabeth feels a growing connection to the enigmatic Maribel as she observes the complex, sometimes absurd efforts of the grande dame's family to act as if they are still living in the gracious era of Maribel's heyday. Each new character adds elements of intrigue and extra twists, but the overwhelming number of faces—close to 30 names are tossed about—also serve to confuse the reader and defuse some of the suspense. The intriguing, old-fashioned plot and memorable details draw the reader in, but this promising yet uneven novel never quite gathers force. (Aug. 19)
