Is there any way to initiate a reboot of this unit itself, by detecting the hung state? Problem is, it can go to hung state any time and there is no definite checks I can add to determine it before-hand.

What challenges must be overcome before ultrasound elasticity imaging is ready for the clinic?
Ultrasound elasticity imaging has been a research interest for the past 20 years with the goal of generating novel images of soft tissues based on their material properties (i.e., stiffness and viscosity). The motivation for such an imaging modality lies in the fact that many soft tissues can share similar ultrasonic echogenicities, but may have very different mechanical properties that can be used to clearly visualize normal anatomy and delineate diseased tissues and masses. Recently, elasticity imaging techniques have moved from the laboratory to the clinical setting, where clinicians are beginning to characterize tissue stiffness as a diagnostic metric and commercial implementations of ultrasonic elasticity imaging are beginning to appear on the market. This article provides a foundation for elasticity imaging, an overview of current research and commercial realizations of elasticity imaging technology and a perspective on the current successes, limitations and potential for improvement of these imaging technologies.


Scott and I worked all day on Studio B. No pictures yet, but I got all the trim polycoated today and Scott built our new table saw and mitre saw. Then we tested then by cutting the few end floor pieces in the closet and along the west wall of the wood. And I installed the light switch and outlet covers today.
Tomorrow, all we have to do is cut the trim pieces to the right length and install them. Tomorrow, I'll take pictures.
I spent about half an hour measuring bookcases, looms, cabinets, tables, my cedar chest and wall space to see where everything will fit in best, and discovered that I can fit more in than I had thought originally, just not in quite the same places I had planned.
Well, Prairie Home Companion is on. Happy July 4th everyone!!!

Although Wanted for Rape and Murder, Ali Bashar Was Able to Leave Germany
Posted on June 13, 2018 by Baron Bodissey
As we reported last week, a 14-year-old Jewish-German girl was brutally raped and murdered in Wiesbaden by two culture-enrichers.
As it turns out, Susanna was the daughter of Russian immigrants, so there has been quite a bit of interest in her story in the Russian press. The report below has more details than we've been seeing in most German media accounts.
Many thanks to six45 for translating this article from Komsomolskaya Pravda:
The migrant murderer of 14-year-old Susanna Feldman was under an arrest warrant, but border police allowed him to leave the country
The girl from Wiesbaden, who was raped and strangled, was the daughter of Russian expats.
by Edward Chesnokov
The tolerance and multiculturalism of the most powerful country in the EU have reached new levels — some disturbing details of the gruesome and cynical murder of Suzanna Feldman from Mainz (in Rhineland-Pfalz, Germany) have become public. In mid-May, the 14-year old daughter of Jewish immigrants from Russia went out with her friends to downtown Wiesbaden. She didn't come home that night. At first, her family was hopeful: who knows what those teenagers might be up to?
But, two days later one of her friends told her parents that Susanna was raped and murdered. The family rushed to the police, only to be told by the officers that when no victim's body has been found, no case can be opened.
Then the search for the unfortunate girl started, with dozens of volunteers. Finally, on June 6th, she was found strangled in a wooded area next to the Wiesbaden-Frankfurt highway. The body had strangulation marks from after multiple rapes. The investigation could have taken many months — had it not been for a teenaged refugee from the local asylum center for the "New Germans". He said:
"A guy from Iraq, Ali, wanted to show how tough he was, he boasted that he raped and murdered a Jewish girl."
The authorities have quickly learned: the perpetrator is a 20-year-old refugee (or more precisely, "refugee") by the name of Ali Bashar. Three years ago he came to Germany along with his family of eight, using the standard "migrant pathway": through Turkey and Greece. He was denied asylum, he appealed — and was staying legally in Gessen. Moreover, he was already under police supervision: he was suspected of raping an 11-year old(!) girl, and of attempted robbery with a knife of a passer-by.
"There was no reason to detain him, as the connection of the perp with the mentioned crimes was not proven," say the Wiesbaden police (published by Die Welt).
However, with full understanding that by now even the slow-moving German law enforcement would probably "connect the dots" and get him, Ali immediately forgot how tough he was, and he and the family went back to their homeland. The same one he once ran away from, and described to authorities as a "horrifying and discriminating place".
And the craziest part starts now. How were the family able to leave Germany, given that the son was already wanted as a suspect in Susanna's murder? Quite simply: the Iraqi embassy issued the all new passports, but using a different family name. Of course, we all know that there is no bureaucracy in consulates, right? Just drop by, and they will issue anything. Even for eight people.
At the Dusseldorf airport, those departing were asked by border police: "How come you don't have German-entry stamps in your passports? How did you get into the country?"
Family members then showed their original refugee papers with the old family name. The same family name that was being sought [by the authorities]. But the officers just compared the photos and let them through. Now it's most likely that the killer, along with his relatives, is somewhere in the Middle East.
Still, there is a tiny bit of justice in the case: a 35-year-old Turk was detained, who is thought to have participated in the gruesome crime along with Ali.

Our 'ally' Iraq has the highest rates of antisemitism in the world (just after the Palestinians). Iraqis tend to adore Adolf Hitler, Nazis and are known to wax sentimental about the Holocaust.

Since then the Kurds arrested him and he was handed over and brought back.

The murderous piece of garbage was apprehended by the Kurds and returned to Germany by private jet.
This return was undertaken by the German police in defiance of the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and of Justice, both of which are in the hands of the Socialists (SPD).
In the absence of any formal extradition, there is now talk of him being returned (by private jet, no doubt!!!) to stand trial in Iraq.
Meanwhile, there was another young girl murdered in a park in broad daylight the day before yesterday.
Just how long the sheep are going to accept their lambs being slaughtered is anyone's guess !!

no, Chris! He came by a Lufthansa flight and the procedure might raise questions. A military plane with a big rear shoot could have done a better job, once he had shaken off his guards! Astonishingly, even the tamest MSM publish letters where people ask right questions such as: how could he and his 8 people bunch leave without passports? Where did those welfare dwellers raise 8.000€ for the one-way commercial flight? Why, after all, the perp was not in custody having been sentenced for robbery and assault before?
P.S. Sometimes people here in Germany "complain" about the huge number of prison inmates in the US.
I then say: this is because in the US, they really do serious time and do not run free like here.
( I then refrain from raising the topic of ethnic quotas among inmates)

Actually, a lot of people that are locked-up in America are there for non-violent stuff (drugs, mostly).
I can honestly see muslims getting gunned-down if this sort of thing was known to happen here, but that's because it's cliche- if it were something more subtle, probably not.
For example: If the school was actually demanding that the kids convert to islam, that would probably turn into something bloody. If they just have them do a lot of classwork that involves religious practices of islam- well, it hasn't happened yet.
I never crossed myself or said any Hail Marys when we were learning about Catholicism. Never shaved my head when Buddhism came up, either.
I watch and wait as the situation in Europe becomes more desperate. To think that this level of antisemitism and horror is becoming common place. So much hate is invading this incredible land. I do fear for decent people everywhere.

According to the Scriptures, in the last days prior to Christ's return a religion will appear that will deceive virtually the entire world into following it. It will be led by the Antichrist ("the beast"), who will be worshiped as God.
; 1 Th 4:16-18) before that religion is fulfilled. If true, then why would the knowledge of the coming world religion be of value for true believers in Christ?
There are a number of reasons. First of all, the biblically false content of the coming world religion doesn't suddenly appear overnight. The seeds of it began in the Garden of Eden with Satan's seduction of Eve (Gn 3:1). His first words, "Yea, hath God said…?," set forth his strategy of undermining God's commands and instructions. That has continued right up to this present time and is increasing exponentially. Secondly, Satan's offer of godhood to Eve has manifested itself throughout history. Most of the religions of the Far East teach that God is everything or in everything, making everything and everyone God or part of God. Many of the Caesars and other rulers imposed the worship of themselves as deities upon their people. Those forms of idolatry will culminate in the worship of self, the Antichrist, and Satan.
Thirdly, Jesus characterized the days prior to His return for His bride as a time of great deception. He told His disciples, "Take heed that no man deceive you" (Mt 24:4 – emphasis added). His warning included deceits such as false Christs, lying signs and wonders, and unbiblical doctrines and teachers. Some have wrongly concluded that Christ's warning wasn't for believers, asserting that verse 24 implies that it would be impossible to "deceive the very elect" (24:24). That can't be the case because Jesus addressed this warning (v. 4) to His disciples—who were certainly His "elect." Fourthly, the Word of God gives multiple instructions on how to protect ourselves from the lies of Satan that can adversely affect our fruitfulness in the Lord.
These seductive and deceptive devices of God's chief adversary will increase prior to the Rapture, but God's Word gives us the prevention program against being seduced by Satan's lies: "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour" (1 Pt 5:8).
The Apostle Paul pointed to a time in the history of the church when a condition would be prevalent that would greatly undermine the faith of professing and true believers: "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables" (2 Tm 4:3 ). Sound doctrine—what is that? It's simply the teachings given to mankind by God through His prophets. It is God's written Word, His objective communication to humanity, containing information that comes directly from Him without the input of mankind. That's what makes it sound doctrine. God, being infinite, has communicated to finite man what He wants him to know and do. That's the only way finite humanity can truly know their infinite Creator and what He has in mind regarding them.
Undermining sound doctrine is Satan's primary goal in his attempt to shipwreck the faith and fruitfulness of believers. The strategy involves corrupting the Word of God by adding to it or subtracting from it. Thus the Scriptures are distorted through the input of fallen, finite man and the contributions of seducing spirits and doctrines of demons (1Tm 4:1). Such modifications demolish the objective truth of Scripture. The Bible no longer stands as God's Word when "adjustments" are made by other sources. This is taking place today in unprecedented fashion, especially through the introduction (or re-introduction) of mysticism.
The antithesis of the objective Word of God, mysticism is defined by The Merriam-Webster Dictionary as "the belief that direct knowledge of God, spiritual truth, or ultimate reality can be attained through subjective experience such as intuition or insight," and adds that it is "vague speculation, a belief without sound basis." Google gives this definition: "belief characterized by self-delusion or dreamy confusion of thought, especially when based on the assumption of occult qualities or mysterious agencies." A mystical worldview, which is intensifying in both the world and its religions, will be foundational to the coming one-world religion.
Among many reasons, the primary one is that mysticism has a universal appeal that will attract and unify all the religions of the world. Why? Because it avoids doctrine (rules, regulations, commandments, obligations, requirements, etc.). The doctrines of the Bible are given by God and are to be obeyed; not obeying them is rebellion, which is the state of the world as well as the state of many within the church. The religions of the world also have doctrines, albeit false ones, against which their followers often rebel. Doctrines divide because people don't particularly like rules that demand obedience. The stricter the rules, the less attractive the religion. That's a potential problem for the religion of the Antichrist because its goal is to attract other belief systems and draw all people into its spiritual web.
In order for mysticism to become the foundational belief system of the one-world religion, it must include all the world religions. With rare exceptions, the religions of the Far East are fundamentally mystical, so little change is necessary for them. But what of the law-oriented religions of Roman Catholicism and Islam? Their combined numbers exceed two billion followers, so they must be included in the religion of the Antichrist. Yet they are both legalistic—Catholicism with its canons and decrees, inquisitions, and obligations, and Islam with its Sharia laws. Obviously this must change in order for them to fit in with the necessary ecumenism of the one-world religion.
Such a change will likely be facilitated by the roots of mysticism that have been a part of both religions for centuries. In Roman Catholicism, for example, the influence of the Desert Fathers began in the third century, just before Constantine, and continued past the time of Augustine in the fourth and fifth centuries. These were hermits and mystics, living in seclusion, in caves, some of them attempting to imitate Jesus in His personal desert confrontation with the devil. Their fleshly attempts at overcoming Satan and his demons often led to madness. They lived in caves, isolated from the rest of civilization, which also led to altered states of consciousness. As we know today, that condition opens a person to communication with the spirit world, i.e., demons. An altered mental state often creates the illusion of oneness, or union, with God—the ultimate goal of mysticism.
In the sixteenth century, a Spaniard named Ignatius Loyola, who was the founder of the Jesuits, fostered mysticism through his Spiritual Exercises. They are enormously popular among Catholics and contemplative evangelicals today. One Jesuit source tells us: "Ignatius was convinced that God can speak to us as surely through our imagination as through our thoughts and memories. In the Ignatian tradition, praying with the imagination is called contemplation" (Kevin O'Brien, The Ignatian Adventure: Experiencing the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, p.141). "Praying with the imagination," by the way, is another term for creative visualization, a powerful occult technique that ushers the visualizer into the spirit realm.
Contemplative techniques have divorced the practitioner from the objective Word of God, leading one into the subjective arena of the imagination and feelings. This is what people like Richard Foster (Celebration of Discipline) and Sarah Young (Jesus Calling) are promoting. The practical consequences of disregarding critical judgment are often disastrous. Yet that is and will be the outcome of a religious system that people will flock to in the Last Days.
Following the mystical practices of Ignatius Loyola in our day were Catholics Thomas Merton and Henri Nouwen. Both are deceased. Merton was a Trappist monk and priest; Nouwen was also a priest, and both were well-known mystics. They were paragons of the modern contemplative movement and greatly influenced leading evangelicals such as Richard Foster, Dallas Willard, Eugene Peterson, Beth Moore, Kay Warren, and others. Merton studied the Desert Fathers and the Christian mystics and recognized their connection with the meditative practices of Eastern mysticism in Zen Buddhism, Taoism, and Sufism, which he taught and practiced. Asked if he felt that "turning away from traditional Christianity toward the East" would cause "an eventual turning back to a different form of Christianity, one that might even be more genuine," Merton replied, "Yes, I think so" (Merton, Thomas Merton: Preview of the Asian Journey, 53-54).
The most influential evangelical pastor today, Rick Warren, refers to him as "our new pope." Pope Francis is certainly the man for the renewal of mystical Roman Catholicism. He's a Jesuit, fully rehearsed in the Spiritual Exercises. In his address before the US Congress recently, he praised mystic monk and priest Thomas Merton.
Many were appalled that one of the first overtures of the new head of the Roman Catholic Church in regard to winning and influencing evangelicals was to send a personal greeting to a conference led by Kenneth Copeland. Was the pope clueless about Copeland's false doctrines, his charismatic abuses, his prosperity distortions of Scripture, not to mention his con-man-like greed? I think not. Why? Because it doesn't really matter. Doctrines, whether true or false, take a back seat—or no seat at all—in mysticism. Remember, as noted, doctrines divide. Therefore they need to be pushed aside in order to make room for what helps people to get along, what encourages relationship building, what feels right. That was the gist of the Christianity Today article, "What Evangelicals Like about Francis." Never mind the theology of the pope. It's how he makes everyone feel. More and more, it seems, this is what's important to people.
Fewer and fewer evangelicals today seem to care that all the feel good stuff that Francis reflects personally won't save him or anyone else. Neither will the gospel of his Church save anyone —whether it's the new or the old Catholicism. The following quotes in the official Catholic catechism have been a mystery for quite a while. Many within and without the Church have been at a loss as to how to interpret them: "For the Son of God became man so that we might become God….The only-begotten Son of God, wanting to make us sharers in his divinity, assumed our nature, so that he, made man, might make men gods" (CCC paragraph 460). What is now becoming apparent is the way those statements fit perfectly with the foundational objective of mysticism: union with God.

Whack-A-Mole: Universal Basic Income Just Keeps Popping Up
by Activist Post
in Economy, Government, Truth
Universal Basic Income (UBI) was an original program of Technocracy in the 1930s, when everyone was to receive a like amount of income based on energy. Work would be assigned to every citizen, but their work would not be related to their income.
Today's calls for UBI, if successful, will lead to modern-day slavery and increases in poverty and hunger. Were it not for the already failed economic policies of progressive left-wing radicals, there would be no need for UBI.
Huffington Post reports on Ilhan Omar's new bill:
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) is set to introduce bold legislation on Friday that would create a guaranteed income program in the U.S. to send $1,200 a month directly to most Americans.
The SUPPORT Act — co-sponsored by progressive lawmakers Reps. Cori Bush (D-Mo.), Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), Dwight Evans (D-Penn.) and Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) — would first create a $2.5 billion grant program to fund local pilots in guaranteed income. These would run in hundreds of communities across the country from 2023 to 2027 and provide findings for a national program.
The national guaranteed income program would start in 2028, sending $1,200 per month to adults making up to $75,000 per year, or heads of household making up to $112,500 per year, as well as providing $600 monthly per child. The payments would phase out for higher incomes.
Importantly, undocumented people who file taxes with an ITIN number would be eligible. The legislation would also establish a banking system through the postal service for "unbanked, underbanked and individuals experiencing housing instability" to receive payments.
"Poverty is a choice. For too long we have prioritized endless growth while millions are homeless, hungry or without healthcare," Omar said in a statement. "We as a nation have the ability to make sure everyone has their basic needs like food, housing and healthcare met."
The article reveals circular reasoning for all the other "tests" of UBI by merely stating their existence but not their outcomes. This includes Stockton, California, Mississippi. Oakland and Finland, all of which have been found to be useless.
Common Dreams, a progressive web journal, notes that Omar's bill, called the SUPPORT Act, is co-sponsored by Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) chair Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) as well as Reps. Cori Bush (D-Mo.), Dwight Evans (D-Pa.), and Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.), all members of the CPC.
It continues,
A 2018 report from the Federal Reserve Board showed that nearly 40% of U.S. adults could not cover a $400 emergency expense.
Because the U.S. has more than enough resources to abolish poverty, Omar argued, allowing it to continue is a "choice" that legislators make.
In fact, the government has no money that it didn't first forcibly take away from productive, working Americans.
UBI is like a snake that eats it own tail, removing incentive to work and locking people into a death spiral of poverty.

Big Pharma's Five Major Minions that Everyone, Vaxxed or Unvaxxed, Must Oppose
This is not an "anti-vaxxer" article, per se. It's a call for everyone to wake up to the nefarious motives behind vaccine mandates, booster shots, and condemnation of freedom.
The worst kept secret in world history SHOULD be that the unquenchable push for universal vaccinations against Covid-19 has little if anything to do with healthcare and everything to do with Big Pharma's influence over the narrative. Unfortunately, that secret has stayed firmly hidden from the vast majority of people because of the five major minions working on behalf of Big Pharma.
What's even worse is the fact that Big Pharma's greed is merely a smokescreen to hide an even darker secret. We'll tackle that later. First, let's look at the public-facing ringleaders behind the vaccine push, namely Big Pharma. But before we get into their five major minions, it's important to understand one thing. This is NOT just an article that speaks to the unvaccinated. Even those who believe in the safety and effectiveness of the vaccines must be made aware of agenda that's at play.
Let's start with some facts. The unvaccinated do NOT spread Covid-19 more rampantly than the vaccinated. Even Anthony Fauci acknowledged the viral load present in vaccinated people is just as high as in the unvaccinated. This fact alone should demolish the vaccine mandates as it demonstrates they have absolutely no effect on the spread of the disease. But wait! There's definitely more.
This unhinged push to vaccinate everyone defies science. Those with natural immunity may actually have their stronger defenses against Covid-19 hampered by the introduction of the injections which fool the body into creating less-effective antibodies. Moreover, the push to vaccinate young people is completely bonkers. The recovery rate for those under the age of 20 is astronomical. Children neither contract, spread, nor succumb to Covid-19 in a statistically meaningful way. What they DO succumb to more often than Covid-19 are the adverse reactions to the vaccines, particularly boys.
All of this is known and accepted by the medical community, yet most Americans are still following the vaccinate-everybody script. It requires pure cognitive dissonance and an overabundant need for confirmation bias to make doctors and scientists willingly go along with the program. Yet, here we are and that should tell you something.
Before I get to the five major minions of of Big Pharma, I must make the plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page or via PayPal. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We've had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Who does Big Pharma control? It starts with the obvious people, the ones who most Americans believe are actually behind this push. Our governments at all levels as well as governments around the world are not working with Big Pharma. They are working for Big Pharma. Some are proactive as direct recipients of cash. Others may oppose Big Pharma in spirit but would never speak out because they know anyone who does has no future in DC.
This may come as a shock to some, but it's Big Pharma that drives the narrative and sets the agenda for the "experts" at the CDC, FDA, WHO, NIH, NIAID, and even non-medical government organizations.
Most believe it's the other way around. They think that Big Pharma is beholden to the FDA for approval, but that's not exactly the case. They need approval for a majority of their projects, but when it comes to the important ones such as the Covid injections, Big Pharma is calling the shots. They have the right people in the right places to push their machinations forward.
That's not to say that everyone at the FDA is in on it. Big Pharma only needs a handful of friendlies planted in leadership in order to have their big wishes met. We have seen people quitting the FDA in recent weeks for this very reason. The same can be said about the other three- and five-letter agencies. Too many people in leadership have been bribed, bullied, or blackmailed into becoming occasional shills for the various Big Pharma corporations. Some have even been directly planted by Big Pharma. That's the politics of healthcare and science that drives such things as Covid-19 "vaccines."
Read the rest of this story, but please be sure to donate first if you can.

Q: TypeError: strptime() argument 1 must be string, not float Good morning!
I have a series of events with associated dates. The event dates are stored as a series of string values in a column within a dataframe that I have loaded into Python. The dataframe contains other columns with values. I would like to convert the values in column "event" into datetime objects, store them in a list, and then plot that list with matplotlib to create a timeseries.
My dataframe looks like this:
         date         value_1    event        other_event
37       07/02/2015   265.09     07/02/2015   NaN
38       08/02/2015   278.59     08/02/2015   NaN
156      06/06/2015   146.07     06/06/2015   NaN
180      30/06/2015   133.56     30/06/2015   NaN
243      01/09/2015   280.27     01/09/2015   01/09/2015

Python tells me that the column data is Name: event, dtype: object, which I assume means it contains string values. I also have the line df.event.apply(str) in my code, which I think will convert the values in my event column into string values.
Then I have this code:
FMT = '%d/%m/%Y'
event_list = []

for i in range(0, len(event)):
    event_list.append(datetime.datetime.strptime(event[i], FMT))

However, this line returns an error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<ipython-input-39-e778a465e858>", line 2, in <module>
    event_list.append(datetime.datetime.strptime(event[i], FMT))

TypeError: strptime() argument 1 must be string, not float

Any advice as to where I'm going wrong will be gratefully received.

A: To plot the dataframe in question using matplotlib, you may convert the column in question to datetime using pandas.to_datetime first.
u = u"""i         date         value_1    event        other_event

Downtown Jackson, Mississippi, May 31, 2012. When the state of MIssissippi integrated its schools, many white families fled, shuttering the businesses and industry in downtown Jackson, and across the state. Often linked to poverty and unemployment, Mississippi has some of the highest rates of diabetes, obesity, infant mortality, AIDs, among other ailments, in the country, and though millions of federal funds have been thrown at the problems for years, conditions have only gotten worse.

Slumber Parties are very popular with kids of all age groups. If you are looking for slumber party ideas for 10 year olds, then the best option is to create a theme for the party. This PartyJoys article tells you more.
When you think of a slumber party there are a number of images that pop into your head, mostly images of staying up late in pajamas, midnight feasts, gossiping, playing truth or dare etc. This is what happens at a classic slumber party. While a party invitation for teens does not require you to arrange for any entertainment, when it comes to arranging one for kids, it is best for the parents to come up with ideas to keep them occupied. Thinking of slumber party ideas for 10 year olds is not very difficult. All you need is something creative and fun to keep them occupied!
While thinking of things to do at a slumber party, make sure you do not choose games that are too educational because they'll just end up seeming like a chore rather than something fun. This will not only keep the children entertained, but will also explore their creativity and imagination. But don't fret, for theme parties do not mean that they have to burn a hole in your pocket.
One of the classic ideas for slumber party is a movie night. This is a great idea for both boys and girls. You can select a movie they will all enjoy, like High School Musical or a Harry Potter movie, as these are evergreen favorites of all 10-year-olds. Make sure you have a lot of popcorn and candies at hand. If you want to make it a little more creative, then you can ask each child to dress up as their favorite character from the movie.
One of the coolest party ideas for girls is a makeover party. After all, girls just want to have fun, and what better way than a makeover party? Girls of all ages love make-up. Get light eye shadows, lip glosses, nail polishes etc. to make it more fun. Make all the girls write their names on chits and put them in a bowl. Then make each one draw a chit from the bowl. Whichever name they pick, they have to give a makeover to that person, and vice versa. Take 'before' and 'after' photographs with a Polaroid camera so that the girls can take them home in the morning.
This is a fun idea, especially for boys. You can build a small bonfire in your backyard, and maybe even tents for the kids to spend the night in. Let them roast marshmallows and make s'mores for creating the complete effect of a camp. And what better way to end the night, than by letting the kids tell scary stories to each other or even play pranks for sleepovers.
If you want something simple, then another option is a game night. You can choose board games, card games, or even games like truth or dare to make it fun. Besides these, you can also have dance sessions. All you need is good music, and all the kids can show their smooth moves to each other.
No matter which idea you choose, make sure your child likes it. Taking suggestions from children is another way to make it a sure shot success. Also, slumber parties do not get over at night, so make sure that when the children get up the next day, you continue the theme or keep them entertained by letting them help in making breakfast, or take them for a delicious brunch before dropping them off. So now that you have all the ideas for a great party, go ahead and plan one for your child!

Netflix to provide age ratings for content
Netflix is to provide age ratings for content (Dominic Lipinski/PA)
Netflix is to work with the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) to provide age ratings for content on the streaming service.
The platform will move towards classifying all content on the service using BBFC age ratings such as U, PG and 18.
Netflix and the BBFC will work together for a pilot programme to make sure Netflix's classification process produces ratings which are consistent with the BBFC's classification guidelines for the UK.
Afterwards, Netflix will produce BBFC ratings in-house to be carried on their UK service but the board will regularly check content that has been rated by Netflix to make sure it complies with its standards.
The move follows research by the BBFC and the Video Standards Council Rating Board (VSC) which found that almost 80% of parents are concerned about children seeing inappropriate content on video on demand or online games platforms.
The two organisations are publishing a joint set of best practice guidelines to offer more consistent use of trusted age ratings online.
This includes recommending more comprehensive use of BBFC age labelling symbols across all Video On Demand (VOD) services, and Pan European Game Information (PEGI) symbols across online games services.
It also recommends that additional ratings information, such as drug misuse or violence, should be used alongside the age rating wherever available.
The voluntary guidelines are aimed at VOD services offering video content to UK consumers via subscription, purchase and rental, such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and iTunes, but exclude catch-up TV services like BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub, All 4, My5 and UKTV Play.
David Austin, chief executive of the BBFC, said: "Our research clearly shows a desire from the public to see the same trusted ratings they expect at the cinema, on DVD and on Blu-ray when they choose to watch material online.
"We know that it's not just parents who want age ratings, teenagers want them too. We want to work with the industry to ensure that families are able to make the right decisions for them when watching content online."
Digital minister Margot James added: "Our ambition is for the UK to be the safest place to be online, which means having age ratings parents know and trust applied to all online films and video games.
"I welcome the innovative collaboration announced today by Netflix and the BBFC, but more needs to be done.
"It is important that more of the industry takes this opportunity for voluntary action, and I encourage all video on demand and games platforms to adopt the new best practice standards set out by the BBFC and Video Standards Council."

Observations on intramammary infection and somatic cell counts in cows treated with recombinant bovine somatotropin.
Data were collected on udder health variables as part of a study of the effects of recombinant bovine somatotropin on production in lactating dairy cows. Milk samples, obtained at three intervals during the study, were assessed for their somatic cell count and bacteriological culture result. There was an increase in the prevalence of infection at mid-lactation in the 20.6 and 41.2 mg per day treatment groups as compared to the controls. There was no difference detected in the mean cell count between groups from the samples collected pretrial, mid-lactation, or late lactation. However, analysis of the individual cow Dairy Herd Improvement somatic cell count data showed a difference between groups which was most evident in mid-lactation.

Helping the homeless is a true act of faith
June 3, 2018	News
WHAT a fantastic gesture from the Bathurst Uniting Church to support the homeless in our city.
From June 14, the church will have the capacity to house five men a night in a vacant room at the back of the William Street site.
The men will have access to sleeping mats, bedding and basic meal facilities, as well as a toilet, during the winter months.
More importantly, they will be safe and warm as the worst of Bathurst's winter starts to bite.
The project is an example of faith in practice, an example of all that can be good about the church.
The initiative is also supported by an expert advisory group, with representatives from the church, Anglicare, St Vincent de Paul, Salvation Army, Bathurst Catholic Diocese, HopeCare, The Bridge Community and Wellways Australia.
This newspaper has said before that the measure of a society is the way it treats its most vulnerable and the Bathurst Uniting Church has set a shining example for us all.
It would shock most residents to think that our prosperous community could be home to people forced to sleep rough, but that is the sad reality.
As they huddle under bridges or in doorways, these people are not only at the mercy of the elements but also any passing thug that cannot keep quietly to themselves.
By throwing open the church doors the parishioners at the Bathurst Uniting Church are also throwing open their hearts, offering support and hope to people at their greatest time of need.
And all it took was some clear thinking and the will to make it happen.
"We have some areas that weren't being used for anything else that can be used for this project, so that is the main advantage," co-ordinator Julie Greig said.
"It's an issue of social justice. Buildings are empty while people are sleeping out on the streets.
"We're called on as a church to look after the weak and vulnerable who don't have a voice normally, so that is where we are coming from."
Sounds simple, but then came the hard work of making it happen.
The initiative will begin on a trial basis but we can only hope it is a success and becomes a permanent fixture.
As a society, we must do more to tackle homelessness. Bathurst is fortunate that the Uniting Church is leading the way.

'Be-Friending Month' @ Bathurst Uniting
June 3, 2018	Ministry Blog
We talk a lot about community and family and relationships here at Bathurst Uniting, and it is important to our identity and mission as a church that everyone is welcomed and feels that they belong. But not everyone finds it easy to connect socially. And sometimes it's surprising how little we really know our 'neighbours' – even within the church – especially since we've been blessed to add a number of new people to our fellowship in the last year – not least, our brothers and sisters from Perthville. How do we enfold people in Christian community – at, but also beyond, our Sunday morning gatherings?
I'd like to challenge us to make this month 'Be-friending Month'. The challenge is, sometime during June, to invite to coffee/tea, or lunch, or dinner – or otherwise to 'get together with' – one or two people you don't know well, or don't usually socialise with, from church. Perhaps someone who is new, or on the margins a bit… Share a hobby, or a group, or a meal, or a film… Perhaps you'll encourage someone and help them feel that they belong. Perhaps you'll make a new friend or two. And if you're really up for a challenge, try adding to the mix a person or two from outside the church. But please start somewhere, this month. 'By this shall all people know that you are my disciples,' said Jesus, 'by your love for one another.'

Upcoming Toyota electric vehicle BZ4X for (2022)
Toyota unveils details of its first mass-produced Toyota electric vehicle bZ4X in a landmark move for the world's second-largest carmaker
In the last quarter of a century, Toyota has been at the forefront of bringing vehicle electrification to the public. The world's largest automaker launched the Prius as the first mass-market hybrid electric car in 1997 and has sold over 18 million hybrids since then. Despite this recognition of good electrical conductivity, Toyota remains significantly hostile to plugged vehicles. However, in the spring of 2022, Toyota will sell the first purpose-built battery electric vehicle (BEV) bZ4X as a mid-size crossover.
Toyota bZ4X review :

1. What is the bZ4X range?
Toyota electric
It will actually be Toyota's fourth BEV, but previous efforts have been to transform existing internal combustion models, two generations of RAV4 and Toyota / Scion iQ. All of these fall into the category of compliance vehicles, designed to comply with the mandate of zero-emission vehicles only in California and elsewhere. With less than the iQ 100 sold in the United States, there were no significant sales.
Unfortunately the named bZ4X is something completely different and there are plans to launch a wave of BEV for Toyota and Subaru in the next few years. The two companies have collaborated on the development of the architecture and Subaru is going to sell a virtually identical model with badge solvers.
From a design standpoint, the bZ4X is a mix of several themes. It includes the current Rav4's component, large, dark, reverse black wheel arch and a flat face reminiscent of the Tesla Model Y without the black bar at the top and a thin cool breeze at the bottom.At 184.6 inches from bumper to bumper,
The bZ4X slot on the right between the existing Rav4 and Venza. However, like most BEVs, the wheels are pushed more at an angle, creating a 112.2-inch wheelbase compared to the 105.9-inch of two gas / hybrid crossovers.Inside, the flat under-floor battery pack and tall wheelbase provide plenty of space for passengers. With the driver seat set for the 5-foot-11-inch frame, the rear seat had a nice 5-6-inch knee room and plenty of head clearance.
Toyota has not revealed the full space of the cargo volume, but it does look comparable to the Rav4, which has 37.5 cubic feet behind the second-row seats.
While some will mourn the absence of the front trunk, a few cubic feet at the front that is only suitable for smaller items is a good tradeoff for the actual usable space at the back. A deep channel just outside the steering wheel leads to a digital instrument cluster while a large touchscreen dominates the center of the dashboard.
The built-in platform has been dubbed E-TNGA and looking at the specifications of the bZ4X, one begins to think that it was like the BEV that Ford was building before Jim Farley and other senior management had scrapped the Mustang Mach-E.
The default configuration includes a single front-mounted motor to produce 150-kW or 200-hp. You will find it in Chevrolet Bolt, VW ID.4, Hyundai Kona,and Kia Niro.
It's less likely for anyone to get the naline pumping, but it's enough for someone's daily driving needs. The instantaneous torque supplied by the electric motor means that the bZ4X will feel more out of line than the same powerful petrol model. Still, bZ4X owners wouldn't want to challenge a Tesla owner in a drag race.
An all-wheel-drive version will also be offered with dual motors but they will only produce 80 kilowatts each, adding a total of about 15-hp to offset the extra 200-pound weight. Cooper Ericsson, vice president of Toyota Group for Product Planning, explained that the AWD version was intended to provide improved traction rather than performance enhancement. The decision to use smaller, less powerful motors for AWD helps reduce costs and weight.
Since Subaru clearly led most of the development of the platform, it is not surprising that Toyota claims that this car will have good off-road performance due to its grip-control features.

The Axels contain a 71.4-kWh (72.8-kWh for AWD version) lithium-ion battery. Toyota is projecting that the FWD bZ4X will provide a range of about 250 miles, while the AWD will probably do a bit worse due to the extra weight
It has the same ballpark as the mainstream competitors mentioned earlier but it will probably get ridiculed by Tesla fans. However, Toyota has learned a lot about battery life conservation over two decades of creating the hybrid and has promised that its BEV batteries will hold 90% of their capacity after 10 years of use.
The BZ4X's battery will be supplied by both Panasonic and CATL. One type of battery will be used in FWD models while the other will go to AWD version although Toyota officials could not say which one will have a supplier. The difference is due to the slightly different performance characteristics that better match each motor configuration.
While Tesla and other EV startups are making a big deal to get 300-400 miles on a regular charge, the reality is that somewhere in the 200-250 mile range is probably the sweetest place for most drivers.
Studies have shown that 75% of drivers travel less than 40 miles per day, so even when working in cold climates where the range decreases, the bZ4X only needs to be charged a few times per week. Standard heat pumps for both heat and cool Climate control systems should reduce the range of driving injuries in winter or summer.
For dual-motor models it is zero-to-60 mph time 7.7 seconds and for single-motor versions 8.4 seconds (AWD VW ID.4 has a 5.4-second 0-60 mph run).
top-speed of 160km/h, and can sprint from 0-100km/h in 7.7 seconds
Toyota dealers may find it difficult to steer many buyers who are not dedicated EV finders for the 250-mile bZ4X if its price is much higher than the 600-mile RAV4 Prime.
The Toyota bZ4X can carry a starting price of around $ 37,000 (about Rs 27.7 lakh). The crossover will be made for occupation in Europe, the United States, China and Japan,
Toyota bZ4X have 250 miles of range.

Q: Testing XMPP Chat Server with JMeter I'm looking to do some performance and load testing on a XMPP/HTTP Web services server using JMeter. I'm new to JMeter and am starting to get my head around the basics, but I would like to get these tests up and running ASAP so am reaching out for some help.
I was able to find a sample JMeter Test Plan which I was hopeful I could adapt and get up and running in no time, however that didn't really pan out, using Wireshark, messages from the client are sent using TCP. I tried using this yandex plugin, but It is throwing errors when I try to use it.

This is the error I get.

CKEditor works great, there is only one problem I have: I want to be able to set a default style. When no style has been chosen, I want CKeditor to assume this style has been selected. Is there a way to do this?
I assume you're talking about the 'Style Combo', where the default style is determined by the cursor's surrounding, namely the elements which the cursor anchoring on.
// Define paragraph as the default style.
// Your other styles defined below.
The situation is as follows: The text in the ckeditor textfield will be placed in a div which has a class applied on it. So, when text is not in an element, it will always still be in this div, and therefore get this 'standard' style applied to it. I want this 'standard' style applied to all text in the ckeditor.
I already aplied the solution you mentioned. But as you cans ee it is not the solution for my problem.

El Club Social y Deportivo Fontana es una institución deportiva argentina de la ciudad de Fontana, Provincia del Chaco; su principal actividad es el fútbol. Fue fundado el 14 de enero de 1940. Los colores que representan al primer equipo son azul y blanco y el club es conocido en el medio futbolístico como Taninero, debido a las plantas de taninos de la zona.

En toda su historia el club ha participado en diversos torneos nacionales organizados por la Asociación del Fútbol Argentino (AFA), entre ellos, la Copa Argentina, Torneo Argentino B, Torneo Federal B y Torneo Argentino C. Además participa en la Liga Chaqueña de Fútbol, donde logró 5 campeonatos. En febrero de 2021 participa del Torneo Federal Amateur, la cuarta categoría del fútbol argentino.

Como entidad social, el club también ha sido beneficiado económicamente por parte del Estado. Estas mejoras han permitido desarrollar proyectos en sectores de la educación, la salud y la urbanización.

Su clásico rival es Club Atlético Independiente Tirol, equipo que proviene de Puerto Tirol.

También se practican balonmano, vóley, hockey, artes marciales, patín artístico y gimnasia aeróbica; asimismo sus instalaciones son aprovechadas para capacitaciones y actividades políticas.

Historia
Los comienzos de este club se remontan a la década de los años 1920, inicialmente se denominaba "Club Sportivo Fontana". En él se dedicaban a la práctica de fútbol los obreros y empleados de la fábrica de tanino. La gran mayoría de los jugadores eran de la zona y de localidades cercanas como Río Arazá y Puerto Vicentini. El club participaba del campeonato local de la Liga Chaqueña de Fútbol con destacadas actuaciones.

Las crisis que afectaban a la fábrica se hacían sentir en el Club, hasta que el 14 de enero de 1940 se dictó el Estatuto con su reglamento y se crea el "Club Social y Deportivo Fontana", que era la continuación del anterior.

El mote de Taninero hacee alusión a la «fábrica de taninos» donde se originó el club. Su presidente es Raúl Mantara.

En 1997, luego de 28 años de su primer título liguista, consigue salir campeón del Clausura, y del Oficial, venciendo en las finales a Central Norte Argentino, y de esa manera accedía a jugar el Torneo Argentino B 1998-99. Luego en 2000 se produce su descenso a la Primera B liguista, de la cual regresa como campeón en 2001, aunque luego desciende a la B en 2002, para regresar a inicios de 2004 a la A ganando un torneo Promocional, para permanecer desde entonces en Primera A. En 2019, luego de varias temporadas consecutivas peleando los primeros puestos del campeonato, y luego de 22 años, logra coronarse campeón de la Liga Chaqueña por cuarta vez en su historia.

En febrero de 2021 llegó a la etapa final del Torneo Transición Regional Federal Amateur 2020-21 por el ascenso al Torneo Federal A frente a Gimnasia y Tiro (Salta), perdiendo por 2-0 en Santiago del Estero. Luego, a fines del mismo año, el 30 de diciembre, logra coronarse nuevamente campeón de la Liga por quinta vez en su historia, en el Clausura 2021, venciendo en la final a Resistencia Central por 2-1.

Proyecto social y comunitario
En 2015 se inauguró un microestadio de fútbol, y se mejoraron varias instalaciones como el polideportivo Néstor Kirchner y un Centro Integrador Comunitario. El microestadio está destinado exclusivamente para el club.

What Are the Benefits and Limitations of Multi-Cloud?
Frederico Hakamine
Sr. Technical Marketing Manager
Organizations are increasingly deploying and implementing cloud services in an effort to reduce the cost and complexity of their infrastructure while accelerating their innovation levels. And this is typically a multi-pronged approach: 92% of enterprises have deployed a multi-cloud strategy, while 80% deploy a hybrid cloud strategy. The average organization uses 5.3 clouds—both private and public.
Multi-cloud offers a wide range of benefits for organizations, including flexibility, consistent best-of-breed updates, and options when it comes to selecting vendors. However, ineffective multi-cloud management can present challenges and limitations that put data privacy and protection at risk. In this post we'll explore both sides of the multi-cloud coin, looking at both its pros and cons—but first, let's define multi-cloud.
What is multi-cloud?
Multi-cloud is when an individual or organization uses more than one cloud provider for their IT needs. This approach enables companies to better support their business, technology, and service reliability requirements, while mitigating over reliance on a single-cloud provider that might not accomplish all tasks effectively.
A multi-cloud strategy can encompass private, public, and hybrid clouds, and allows businesses to seamlessly manage multiple providers and virtual infrastructure performance while achieving greater efficiency. Multi-cloud architecture enables the distribution of cloud applications, assets, and software—including Infrastructure-as-a-Service, Platform-as-a-Service, and Software-as-a-Service solutions—across various environments.
Multi-cloud vs. hybrid cloud vs. private cloud vs. public cloud
There is often confusion around the differences between multi- and hybrid cloud approaches and how private and public cloud solutions fit in. While private, public, and hybrid clouds are three different deployment models, multi-cloud represents a combination of any of those three. Here's some more detail on how each of the three models compare:
Private cloud: Private cloud deployment means an organization owns and maintains its cloud computing resources. These resources are stored at the organization's own data center—or, in some cases, companies rent private server space with a cloud provider. Alternatively, companies can opt for a pay-as-you-go solution for hardware colocated on their datacenter and managed remotely by a cloud provider. The key advantage to this approach is that resources are stored on a private network on dedicated hardware and software, meaning the organization gains enhanced control, flexibility, and scalability when it comes to their IT environment. A disadvantage of this model is that companies adopting private cloud cannot fully realize pay-as-you-go benefits—they must pay for the infrastructure up front and keep paying for datacenter maintenance regardless of use levels.
Public cloud: Public cloud is the most common form of cloud deployment. Resources are owned and operated by third-party service providers—such as AWS or the Google Cloud Platform—and delivered to users via the internet. The third-party cloud provider also owns and manages all hardware, software, and other infrastructure for its customers. These resources are shared between the cloud provider's tenants and accessed via web browsers through web-based email, office applications, storage services, and development environments. Public cloud offers a low-cost, highly reliable, and on-demand service that requires no maintenance for its users. It also provides quick time to value, meaning teams spend little to no time procuring infrastructure, colocating servers, and maintaining them. On the flip side, you end up sharing resources with other tenants.
Hybrid cloud: Hybrid cloud refers to using a combination of private and public cloud infrastructure. A hybrid cloud approach involves the use of orchestration tools to deploy workloads and manage the balance of organizations' resources across private and public clouds. This approach also offers businesses more flexibility to move between these two models, depending on their needs and budget at any given time. The one potential drawback, however, is that working with different types of clouds can add complexity to your tech environment.
Note: Though easily confused with hybrid IT, hybrid cloud speaks specifically to a company's use of private and public clouds, not the blend of on-prem and cloud-based systems.
The benefits of multi-cloud
A multi-cloud approach presents organizations with many advantages, from choice and flexibility to more technical perks. Key multi-cloud architecture benefits include:
Avoiding vendor lock-in: One of the most persuasive multi-cloud benefits is that it keeps organizations from being locked into one vendor or service provider. This freedom is increasingly important as organizations want to capitalize on the rise of niche, specialist providers that focus on one area of expertise or one cloud application type. A multi-cloud app approach enables businesses to deploy multiple specialist services instead of relying on one vendor for all their software requirements, ensuring companies can deploy the latest best-of-breed solutions, deliver the software employees need to do their jobs as effectively as possible, and work with the latest and greatest technology.
Meeting compliance requirements: Increasingly stringent data privacy and governance regulations—such as the CCPA and the GDPR—require customer data to be stored in specific locations. Multi-cloud enables organizations to deliver this specificity without having to build and manage their own on-premises data centers or lakes.
Increasing performance: With a multi-cloud approach, organizations can create a high-speed infrastructure that maximizes application performance and reduces the cost of integrating cloud solutions with their existing IT system. By extending networks to multiple cloud providers, organizations can develop connections that improve response time and user experience. Multi-cloud allows organizations to pick cloud providers based on location and the providers' ability to meet price and performance requirements.
Enhancing resilience: Outages can happen at any time for any cloud provider, which makes it highly risky for organizations to rely on one vendor alone. A multi-cloud strategy offers businesses improved security, better failover options, and enhanced disaster recovery. It ensures data storage resources are always available, making the organization's cloud deployment more resilient for the long term. It also helps to minimize performance-affecting factors like latency, jitter, and packet loss, which are typically caused by hopping between networks and servers.
Improving flexibility and scalability: With data volumes increasing exponentially, multi-cloud architecture is an ideal solution for organizations looking to store and process their data. It enables businesses to scale their storage requirements up and down as and when needed.
Multi-cloud challenges
Despite the widespread benefits of working with multiple cloud models and vendors, multi-cloud management isn't completely free of limitations.
Growing cloud costs: Multi-cloud is ideal for organizations wanting to work with the best and most recent cloud applications. However, deploying and signing up to a growing number of cloud apps and service providers can result in an uptick in spending.
Rapid changes in arrangements: As new cloud apps are added to their IT environments, organizations run the risk of losing control of their identity processes, access management, and security. Perimeter-based security tools are not built to secure and manage environments spread across multiple locations, and identity is paramount. Companies need to oversee and stay up to date on their cloud applications without drastically increasing spending on cloud management tools.
Specialist management expertise: Multi-cloud management requires specific expertise to ensure an organization's IT environment remains highly available and secure. If they aren't managed efficiently, multi-cloud environments can create significant issues for businesses, including increased costs and complexity.
Legacy security concerns: A significant challenge for many organizations that want to migrate to the cloud is how the environment integrates with their legacy systems. Security architectures can sometimes be stretched beyond their limits by multi-cloud strategies. Businesses need to assess their networks, environments, and security architectures before implementing multi-cloud to avoid potential risks and liabilities.
Data privacy and protection: Cyber security provides a significant challenge for organizations that store all their data on-premises. But housing it in various locations in multiple data centers and cloud environments makes protecting data even more challenging. Organizations need to provide seamless access to all of their cloud services, maintain least privilege access across their cloud environments, and establish a robust identity architecture that federates with any application or service.
Getting multi-cloud management right
Multi-cloud management is crucial as organizations grow and add new applications and services to their IT environments. While the cloud revolution continues to grow and data volumes increase, businesses remain reliant on traditional methods like passwords that put their diverse environments, remote workers, and multiple applications at risk.
Businesses require a modern identity platform that makes the user the new perimeter, ensures secure access to applications and services, and enables rapid adoption. Okta's approach to identity and access management simplifies the process and removes the risk of migrating to the cloud. This Zero Trust security approach ensures:

Richard "Ricky" Manning Jr. (born November 18, 1980) is an American football coach and former cornerback who is the defensive assistant for the New York Jets of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at UCLA and was drafted by the Carolina Panthers in the third round of the 2003 NFL Draft.  Along with the Panthers he also played for the Chicago Bears, St. Louis Rams, Oakland Raiders, and the Florida Tuskers of the United Football League

Early years
Manning played high school football at Edison High School in Fresno.

College career
Manning started 45 consecutive games for UCLA, which ranks as the second longest streak in school history. His 13 interceptions tie him for seventh all-time among Bruin players. In addition, he made first-team All-Pac-10 for his last three years.

Professional career

Carolina Panthers
Manning was taken in the third round (82nd overall) of the 2003 NFL Draft by Carolina. His first pick came in only his second game, as he intercepted Atlanta Falcons quarterback Doug Johnson. With injuries to the secondary, Manning eventually took over a starting role. His first interception to be returned for a touchdown came against the New York Giants. But he will be forever remembered by Panther fans for his performance during the 2003-04 NFL playoffs. In the NFC Divisional game against the St. Louis Rams, Manning's timely interception of Marc Bulger set up the game-winning touchdown to propel the Panthers into the NFC Championship game against the Philadelphia Eagles. There, Manning made a permanent mark on Panther history by intercepting Donovan McNabb three times en route to the Panthers' victory. Manning became the first rookie to win Defensive Player of the Week honors twice in the same postseason. 's NFL off-season, Manning's 4 postseason interceptions in 2003 remain franchise records for both a career and single season, as do his 3 interceptions in the Philadelphia game.

During the Panthers' injury-riddled 2004 season, Manning helped anchor a defense that ranked first in the league in interceptions. Against the Rams, Manning and teammate Dan Morgan picked off two passes each, the first game where a pair of teammates had a pair of interceptions in three years.

Chicago Bears
Ricky became a restricted free agent in the following offseason, and the Bears signed him to an offer sheet on April 21.  The Panthers declined to match Chicago's offer, and received a third round pick (88th overall, later used to select James Anderson) from the Bears in the 2006 NFL Draft. Manning intercepted five passes during the 2006 season. He intercepted two passes from Matt Hasselbeck, and later returned an interception for a touchdown against the Minnesota Vikings during week thirteen. He also had an interception during the Divisional Playoffs against the Seattle Seahawks.

Manning saw minimal playtime during the 2007 season, and was used at nickelback. He later worked with the team's third string defense, and tutored Danieal Manning, who would eventually replace him as the team's nickelback.  On August 26, 2008, the Chicago Bears released Ricky after a two-year stint.

St. Louis Rams
On August 31, 2008, Manning agreed to terms with the St. Louis Rams. He officially signed the following day. Then on October 14, 2008, Manning was placed on injured reserve after injuring his foot in a game against the Washington Redskins.

Oakland Raiders
Manning signed with the Oakland Raiders on August 15, 2009 after the team released tight end John Paul Foschi. Manning was released on August 24.

Legal troubles
In 2002 Manning was convicted of assault as a result of a fight with cheerleaders Brian Herbert and Seth Spiker outside a Westwood bar. Originally charged with two counts of felony assault, Manning pleaded not guilty to one count and the other count was dismissed.  He received probation.

On April 23, 2006, Manning attacked Soroush Sabzi, in a Denny's restaurant after first teasing him for working on a laptop computer. He was charged with assault with a deadly weapon.  (Two days before the incident, the Bears had signed Manning to $21 million offer sheet. In light of the assault charge, the Panthers declined to match Chicago's offer and Manning signed with the Bears.)

Facing up to 4 years in prison, Manning pleaded no contest in September 2006 to felony assault in exchange for another probation deal. Later, Manning proclaimed his innocence. He acknowledged having words with the victim then pushing him in the head—but after that, according to him, his former UCLA teammates did the damage.  "Yeah, I did it" explained Manning (AP report). "If I don't plea to this I have to go through trial. We're in season now. Then I'd have to put it in the hands of a jury. There are tons of things that can happen with a jury... I just can't risk that."

The NFL suspended him for one game for this, his second felony assault conviction.

Coaching career
In 2012 Manning was hired to coach his high school alma mater's varsity football team.  He was the Head Coach of the Edison High Tigers, in Fresno, California, for just one year.

Tenn. attorney general joins 21 other states looking to get rid of COVID vaccine mandate for healthcare workers

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - One year after it was originally filed, Tennessee is joining a petition with 21 other state attorneys general wanting to strike down a COVID-19 vaccine mandate at health care facilities.
The state attorney general say the vaccine mandate contributes to the shortage of health care workers across the country.
They also say the data we now have on the vaccine doesn't match up to when that mandate was put in place.
Memphians we spoke with tonight all have different opinions.
Republican Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti and other Republican state attorneys general want federal vaccine mandates gone.
Those states include: Montana, Louisiana, Arizona, Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, Virginia, and Wyoming
Each of them co-signed a petition asking the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to strike down the mandate requiring a COVID vaccine for some health care workers.
Memphians have varying opinions on the matter.
"The nurses and health care workers and everyone that's been going along with this for the past couple years, I mean, it's their choice. I feel like they know more about it more than we probably do," Dallas Threadgill said. "So yeah I think it's a good thing, and it's their choice."
Memphian JC disagrees.
"The AG wants to continue sailing off into the unknown, and I think that's inconsequential," JC said. "I disagree with it, but it is now entered the world culture wars so it's totally political and... it's just not tethered to reality."
The Interim Final Rule (IFR) that put the vaccine mandate on health care facilities was enacted in November of last year when the Delta variant rocked the country, overwhelming hospitals.
One year later, they say, "CMS should have known in November 2021—full vaccination doesn't prevent infection or transmission. But that didn't stop CMS from jamming through the IFR's draconian vaccine mandate."
The petitioners want a repeal of the mandate and a withdrawal of guidance related to it.
They are not seeking legal action yet.
