There is now conclusive evidence of water on Mars. It is mostly ice. Though we've detected H20 as vapor in the air and in brines in the red, southern soil.
Ancient streams carved canyons on the red planet. Once, planetary geologists believe, Mars was home to vast oceans. Even the God of War found use for the molecule of life.
You wonder, what were the waves and tides like on Mars. Two foot rollers? Forty foot Mavericks? Four hundred foot tsunamis?
Mars has two moons, Phobos and Deimos. Maybe they pulled and fought over the oceans for so long, Mars decided to dry up and burn instead.
Just this month, researchers announced that the Martian surface in the Ismenius Lacus quadrangle was altered by two enormous tsunamis. The great waves were caused by asteroid collisions, and swept ice and red boulders and debris clear across the planet. Scientists argue that this is the greatest evidence for an oceanic Mars. An epic disaster.
As a toddler, you sat on the sand and spoke to the green Atlantic, let the foam tickle your toes and thighs as it rushed in and out. You tossed sand into the waves, daring the tide to show you what it's really made of.
When you were slightly bigger, you played in the shore break. The waves lifted your tiny body into a barrel roll and threw you hard into the sandy bottom. Over and over until your skin was red from abrasion. You never minded the rough play. Or the burning salt in your nose and sinuses and chest. The sand in your suit was a badge of honor.
Once, a wave lifted you, threw you down, and held you there. As if arms were pressing your head and chest and legs down, the wave held you there. Even as you kicked, clawed through bubbles, they did not release you.
She said: Yes, little one, we play. But know who I am. What I am. My give and take, give and take.
You were thrown up and onto the shore, coughing, salt-soaked, awed.
So little of the universe is solid ground. Creation is all ocean and wave.

Europe Italy
With shimmering lakes, snow-topped peaks, rugged coastlines, historic villages and rolling green countryside, renting a car in Italy is a great way to explore everything the country has to offer. In fact, we'd go as far as saying that taking your own DIY Italian road trip is the best way to tour Italy. With countryside as beautiful as this, the journey itself becomes the destination.
We've rounded up 5 of the best scenic Italian drives that take in some of Italy's most stunning locations. So buckle up and enjoy the ride!
Chianti (Via Chiantigiana): From Florence
Chiant wine region
The Via Chiantigiana has to be one of Italy's prettiest Italian roads to drive. Make sure to add this easy to drive Italian road trip to your Italy itinerary. It runs south between Florence and Sienna, through the middle of one of Italy's most important wine producing regions – the Chianti Classico wine zone of Tuscany.
The Chianti wine region is one of the most pretty and recognisable landscapes in the world, but it's not the only highlight of this Italian road trip. Other beautiful views through the window include Val d'Elsa (the valley of the river Elsa) and the Valdarno (the valley of the River Arno). Via Chiantigiana follows the ridges between the two valleys offering fantastic photo opportunities of old farmhouses and villas clinging to the steep sides.
The landscape along Via Chiantigiana then continues to be peppered with picturesque castles, historic chapels and fortified towns, so there are plenty of opportunities to make a stop. It's possible to complete the drive in a day but it's best to stay a night or two to take advantage of the area's sights of interest and plentiful vineyards. Chin chin!
Lake Garda: From Venice
An Italian road trip along the rocky shoreline of Lake Garda does not disappoint. As you drive from Venice through Italy's Vento region on the banks of Lake Garda, you'll see an array of pretty pastel-coloured villas backdropped by the lake's shimmering blue waters and mountainous peaks.
With the freedom of your own car rental, there are opportunities to enjoy the history of Brescia, Limone Sul Garda and Trento, which are all perfect spots for a lunch/dinner break that'll leave you filled for the next section of this awesome Italian road trip.
This largest freshwater body in the country will lead you to one of the most scenic routes in Italy, navigating tunnels along coastal cliffs with plentiful views of the lake's waters, rooftops and surrounding Alpine mountains. With perfectly maintained and smooth highways carved into the rugged shoreline, you'll enjoy every second.
Lake Como: From Milan
View of Lake Como
Lake Como might not be as big as Lake Garda, but it's still one of the largest lakes in the Italian lake district. Like Lake Garda, a drive around Lake Como's coastline, from Milan, offers equally stunning vistas of piercing blue waters and rocky mountains. Lake Como's shores also take in some of the most picturesque lakeside villages, such as Bellagio, a peaceful town with narrow lanes and handsome villas.
The main town in the area is Como which is home to some of the region's most notable sights, including the ancient Basilica of Sant'Abbondio, and a hike to the top of the Brunate Funicular for epic views across the area. Silk production is also big business in Como so you can find plenty of shops selling locally-made silk garments if that's your thing.
For the film buff, follow the lake's bank hugging road north to Lenno where you can visit the grand Villa Balbianella which features in movies like James Bond's Casino Royale and Star Wars!
Almafi Coast: From Naples
The Amalfi Coast Road
Italy's most scenic stretch of coastline can be found near Naples along the southern sides of the Sorrento Peninsula. With soaring cliffs from the sea, medieval villages stacked into the hillsides, it's no wonder its gained such high popularity. Its beauty is so magnificent that UNESCO crowned the coastline as a World Heritage Site in 1996. This coastal Italian road trip is a narrow pass that overlooks the Tyrrhenian Sea from cliff tops, offering spectacular views.
The road weaves past viewpoint after viewpoint with breaks in picturesque towns such as:
Salerno – with the Lungomare Trieste (Trieste Seafront Promenade) and Castello di Arechi (Arechis' Castle).
Ravello – perched on terraced hillsides with pretty gardens, quaint lanes and memorable views over the azure coast.
Amalfi – steeped in middle-age maritime history and walks along the Valle dei Mulini, a steep-sided ravine dotted with ruined watermills.
Other Amalfi Coast highlights include Grotta dello Smeraldo, a marine cave of sparkling waters, and Vallone di Furore, one of the coast's most impressive gorges.
Via Aurelia: From Rome
Via Aurelia
It's mostly Italians that have discovered the colourful villages and tranquil beaches of Liguria's Riviera di Ponente, but if you want to join them, and you should, the best way to explore the area is along Via Aurelia from Rome. The Roman built Via Aurelia, extends all the way from Lazio into what was then deepest Gaul. The road crosses over cliffs with the lapping sea on one side and deep ravines on the other. Look out the window for sea scrub and wildflowers that cling to the steep slopes.
Cervo, a seaside town which is almost unchanged since the 17th century, is a destination worth visiting on this Italian road trip. Here you'll wander narrow lanes and crooked staircases to sunlit squares and castles that seem frozen in time.
Other historic towns of interest along the shore-hugging Via Aurelia include Alassio, an 18th- and 19th-century lamplit town, and Finale Ligure with its popular 1950's-vintage bar and beach club, Boncardo. Heading east of Finale Ligure, the Via Aurelia becomes amazingly scenic, winding through deep indentations in the rock until it reaches Noli.
By renting your own car you'll be able to fill your itinerary with all the best Italian road trips, without the limitations of public transport. These 5 awesome Italian drives are just the start of what Italy offers. There are so many local towns and areas that can be explored by car, and all are within reach of Italy's major cities.
For that extra special Italian road trip rental car experience, check out Lurento and their impressive selection of sports and luxury cars. Driving the Italian countryside in a Lurento car will be an unforgettable way to leave Italy with an understanding of what makes this country so special.

Q: When a connecting wire is connected to a charged body why does it develop the same potential as the body? OK, so I know that charge flows from high potential to low potential, for eg. if there were $2$ spheres of $5V$ and $3V$, then charge would keep flowing until their potentials become equal, i.e. $4V$, so then even in the case of a sphere and wire, charge should flow from the sphere to wire until their potential becomes $V/2$ and then why does the wire develops a potential equal to the sphere i.e. $V$ ?

A: This has to do with the capacitance of the wire and the sphere. As long as we are talking about wire with smaller dimensions than those of the sphere, when you connect an initially uncharged wire to the sphere, potential will be close to the initial potential of the sphere, but actually smaller in magnitude.
To understand why, if you neglect the effect of the nearby wire on the capacitance of the sphere and vice versa, the total charge must be conserved, so
$$C_sV_0 = C_sV + C_wV$$
$$V = \frac{C_s}{C_s+C_w}V_0$$
where $V_0$ is the initial potential of the sphere, $V$ is the final potential, $C_s$ is the capacitance of the sphere and $C_w$ is the capacitance of the wire. So the wire does affect the final potential, the degree to which it does depends on its capacitance, i.e. its geometry and how it is positioned in relation to the sphere.

1 Where is the Fragrance Industry with the QRA today?
The Dermal Sensitization QRA is considered by the industry as an important step forward in dermal sensitization risk assessment, and the method, first published in 2001 (Gerberick et al., Contact Dermatitis, 45:333-340) has been implemented by the fragrance industry since 2006. An update has been published in 2008 (Api et al., Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 52:3-23) and the QRA Expert Group encourages further refinement to the QRA for fragrance ingredients. Some areas of improvement are considered below.
Improved exposure data (Hall, 2011) is being incorporated into the QRA methodology. In addition, RIFM has sponsored work to investigate the effects of aggregate dermal exposure. The outcome of this work is being accounted for in the methodology and we suggest that an open discussion be held on the validity of the QRA and on this initiative in particular.
A paper which specifically addresses the use of uncertainty factors in QRA for skin sensitization has been published (Felter, et al., Contact Dermatitis, 2003, 47:257-266). However it is acknowledged that further dialogue on SAFs would be appropriate. This would include better clarification of what the SAFs are applied to (e.g. not to clinically diseased skin).
A more detailed explanation of AELs and how they are applied should be provided. There also is a need for more details on the pragmatic approach and a review of aspects of having high calculated values in (mainly) rinse-off products.
While occupational exposures to consumer products can be an important source of exposure they are not considered in the current QRA. This mainly stems from a lack of adequate exposure data.
Furthermore the QRA methodology does not cover aromatherapy (neither workers nor customers). These currently not reflected exposures remain a potential area of research.
Diagnostic patch test data from dermatology clinics are not used in the primary determination of safe use levels based on induction. This is because these data are a measure of elicitation of allergic contact dermatitis, not induction. Nevertheless, the diagnostic patch test data provide feedback on whether thresholds of used based on the QRA has been correctly established (see Task II.2).
A review of retrospective data for three fragrance ingredients has been published (Api et al., 2010). Retrospective review of other fragrance ingredients and other non-fragrance ingredients should also be considered.
Thus, clinical results from the dermatology community (including targeted studies) and company post-market surveillance data should be used to evaluate the effectiveness of QRA-based interventions.
The best way to address the validity of the QRA methodology and the possibilities of further refinement would be to organize an in-depth dialogue between experts. We recommend that a specific workshop be held on the QRA methodology.
3. What has been done so far?
SAFs are seen as being set appropriately with current state of knowledge. Re-evaluation of the inter-individual variability factor with scientific rationale is considered essential.
An estimate of expected new induction when following QRA is encouraged.
There could be value in developing 'QRA 2.0', based on latest data and including aggregate / occupational exposure.
The starting point of the QRA is the NESIL which is defined as the threshold known not to induce skin sensitization, considering all available hazard data in a weight of evidence approach, under the specific exposure conditions of a standard protocol HRIPT. The workshop participants reviewed the SAFs and supported SAFs for 1) inter-individual variability not accommodated in the NESIL is reflected by a SAF of 10., 2) impact of product use factors such as degree of occlusion, frequency / duration of product use and the product matrix itself are reflected in SAFs that range between 0.3 and 6 and 3) The role of skin condition / site is determined by a stepwise consideration of pre-existing inflammation, irritation by product, and penetration / permeation of product and is reflected in SAFs each of 1 or 3.
During the third workshop, held on May 14-15, 2014, examples of how the SAFs were applied and how aggregate exposure were presented. The details for these SAFs and application of the RIFM Creme aggregate exposure model are provided in this dossier.
 The QRA Expert Group is a RIFM Task Force of ten toxicologists from the fragrance and the downstream users industry. This group worked on the adaptation of the QRA methodology to the Fragrance Industry and continues to watch the outcome of the QRA implementation in view to improve the model.

An X-ray view
of the centre of our Milky Way galaxy,
where the supermassive black hole
Sagittarius A* is hosted.
ESA/XMM-Newton/G. Ponti et al.
2019, Nature.
there are many gigantic objects and phenomena,
of which many we still are unaware of.
Some of them we've
already discovered and observed.
An interesting recent discovery reveals two gigantic 'chimneys' funneling hot X-ray matter flowing out from Sagittarius A*, the Milky Way's supermassive black hole, directly into two huge cosmic bubbles.
First of the giant bubbles (both discovered in 2010 by NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope), extends over the plane of the Milky Way; the other below, forms a huge hourglass that stretches for about 50,000 light years - about half the diameter of the entire Galaxy.
The chimneys recently discovered by ESA's XMM-Newton seem to link the immediate surroundings of the black hole and the bubbles together.
Thanks to data delivered by XMM-Newton satellite, researchers created the most extensive X-ray map ever made of the Milky Way's core. Thus, the chimneys, extending for hundreds of light years, were also discovered.
This schematic images shows the scales of and the relationship
between the new-found chimneys and the already known "Fermi Bubbles"
and X-ray lobes at the centre (orange, in the panel to the right).

Could these channels be exhaust pipes through which energy and mass are transported from our Galaxy's heart out to the bubbles?
The outflow might be a remnant from our Galaxy's past, when activity was far more powerful and extreme. Now, our galaxy is considered to be 'quiescent' but as XMM-Newton has revealed our Galaxy's core is still quite tumultuous and chaotic.
Dying stars explode violently, throwing their material out into space; binary stars whirl around one another.
We must not forget Sagittarius A*, a black hole as massive as four million Suns, that lurks waiting for incoming material to devour, later belching out radiation and energetic particles as it does so.

"We know that outflows and winds of material and energy emanating from a galaxy are crucial in sculpting and altering that galaxy's shape over time - they're key players in how galaxies, and other structures, form and evolve throughout the cosmos," said lead author Gabriele Ponti of the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics in Garching, Germany.
"Luckily, our galaxy gives us a nearby laboratory to explore this in detail, and probe how material flows out into the space around us."
Mark Morris, a UCLA professor of astronomy and astrophysics, and a contributor to this research, said that,
"the centers of the nearest galaxies are hundreds to thousands of times farther away than our own".
"The amount of energy coming out of the center of our galaxy is limited, but it's a really good example of a galactic center that we can observe and try to understand."

Pep Guardiola: The race for iconic coach's signature
By Chris Murphy, CNN
Updated 1701 GMT (0101 HKT) January 8, 2016
Photos: Where will Pep Guardiola land in England?
Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola has piqued interest in England by saying his next destination is the Premier League. He has announced his intention to leave the German champion at the end of this season.
Guardiola has been successful on the domestic front in Germany since taking over in 2013. He is on course to win a third successive Bundesliga crown and has also added the German Cup, UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup title to his trophy cabinet. But glory in the Champions League has eluded him so far.


What is Cannabis and What is CBD Oil?
Cannabis is a plant, commonly known as marijuana. The cannabis plant produces over 100 active chemical ingredients, called cannabinoids. The only cannabinoids that have been researched are delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, commonly known as THC, and cannabidiol, commonly known as CBD. THC can be found in a number of products, including dried marijuana plant, while CBD is commonly processed into an oil that can be consumed or applied on the skin.
The cannabinoid THC causes the "high" users of cannabis feel. THC can cause levels of impairment that may make a user unfit to drive, work or perform other functions. As WebMB outlines, THC may alter your sense of time, make one feel anxious and could cause hallucinations. CBD does not have you "high" and can actually counteract the effect of THC and reduce paranoia and anxiety.
Given the numerous potential benefits on cannabis, many Canadians are choosing cannabis instead of drugs such as opioids. Limits apply on where cannabis can be used, including in the workplace, while driving and as consumers.
While cannabis is now legal for adults to possess and consume in Canada, there are many restrictions in place as to when and where cannabis products can be consumed. Cannabis is regulated similar to alcohol. While it is legal to drink alcohol in Canada, you cannot drink and drive, there are public areas you are not permitted to drink in, and your employer has the right to ensure you are sober enough to perform your job safely.
In 2017, the Supreme Court of Canada decided the case Stewart v. Elk Valley Coal Corp. Mr. Stewart was employed driving a loader, a large piece of machinery, in a mine operation. Given the inherent danger of the mining operating, the employer placed a great importance on ensuring the safety of their employees. Seeking to prevent any incidents, the employer imposed a policy which required employees to disclose dependence or addiction issues, for which treatment would be offered. However, the policy was clear that if any employee did not disclose an issue and was involved in an incident and tested positive for drugs, s/he would be terminated.
Mr. Stewart used cocaine during his off-day but did not disclose this to his employer. He was involved in a work-place accident and drug tested, detecting his cocaine. He said he thought he was addicted to cocaine but was still terminated under the policy.
Stewart challenged his firing under Alberta's Human Rights, Citizenship and Multiculturalism Act, which prohibits discrimination based on numerous grounds, including mental and physical disability. The Alberta Human Rights Commission found Stewart was not fired due to his addiction, but rather, his failure to abide by a clear policy that he signed and understood. Further, the Commission found he would have been fired whether he was addicted to cocaine or was just a casual user. The Alberta Court of Queen's Bench, Alberta Court of Appeal and Supreme Court of Canada all upheld Stewart's dismissal.
While the Stewart decision concerned the drug of cocaine, many parallels can be drawn regarding marijuana. Employers have a right to place some limits on their workplaces, particularly in safety sensitive positions. Because the mine had a clear policy and informed workers of this policy, Mr. Stewart's dismissal was reasonable.
Each workplace situation involving marijuana or other drugs will be determined by its own unique facts. If you are an employer or employee dealing with a workplace policy or incident dealing with cannabis or other intoxicants, you should contact an experienced lawyer.
Police can screen a driver for drugs at the roadside through a sobriety test and/or using a salvia test. The Criminal Code also allows blood tests in certain circumstances.
Drivers with 5ng of THC per ml of blood, or 2.5 ng of THC plus a blood alcohol level of .05 can be found guilty of driving under the influence. There is no legal limit to CBD when driving. However, all drivers must ensure they are not impaired by anything, including alcohol, drug or a combination of the two.
While cannabis is legal to possess and use in Canada, there are still many rules in place to promote safety for everyone. Certain rules are set by the federal government and apply across Canada, while others are set by the provinces. There may be further rules governing the sale and use of marijuana in a specific city or town, and groups such as owners of apartment buildings and rental houses or boards of a condo may also set rules that prohibit or limit use and growing of marijuana in the property.
Currently, Alberta allows for the sale of cannabis products only in licensed stores or online at http://albertacannabis.org/. Individuals may also grow up to 4 plants per household. Adults can purchase and carry no more than 30 grams of dried marijuana at any time.
Currently, edible marijuana products are not legal for sale or purchase in Canada, though plans are in place to legalize edible products in October 2019. The additional time has allowed the government to study issues such as the level of THC and CBD that should be permitted in edible products and write these rules and regulations into law.
The legalization of cannabis significantly changes the laws in Canada. This not only impacts the criminal law in Canada, but effects other areas of law including municipal law, human rights legislation and labour and employment. There are still many questions that will be addressed, and many of these issues, while legislation is in its infancy stages, may need to be further determined by the courts.
If you require a lawyer's expertise it is better to call and speak with our Fort McMurray lawyers than take a chance of doing something you might later regret. Call 780-799-9290 to speak with a lawyer at Flett Manning Moore law office.


* Phew * What a relief the day is over. Today has been like an emotional rollercoaster (but its been happening a lot – so I guess it is expected) but today was the MAJOR twistery type which has the potential to make you hurl and wish you had never sat on the damn thing in the first place.
At this point I wanted to just smack him but then when I heard that my heart stopped beating for awhile as the words sunk in. BARRED! I am barred… All the while as the thoughts sank in my mind, W was going on and on about how he had sent it and he said the Stamford server was down and I must have not got it and etc.
F%&# couldn't he have called to make sure I knew?
W proceeds to tell me that I can appeal. I have to get "valid" documentation before 2pm (time of my paper!) and then I can sit for the bloody paper. So I start panicking cos I obviously don't have any documentation. So I go online and try to find AWAM's number as I skipped one class to go for that camp last month so I thought they could email me something as proof… instead I came upon my first Angel… G. G said he would come and pick me up and send me home so I could search for "valid" documentation. So, home I went.
At home I hastily searched for something and found nothing (Story of my life!) … just an agenda for the day which was the only thing I had. So I proceeded to type a letter of appeal (at this point I was still scared – my folks would kill me if they knew I was barred!). While I was typing and cracking my head for something decent to right, I spoke to Tiny on MSN. He was so consoling and kind, reminding me that the sun would shine again and everything would be over in the end.
The Possum than called and I proceeded to tell him the news, whilst hysterically typing. He asked me to send him the finished letter (he is good with formal letters!) and he checked it and then emailed it back to me with the amendments. He then gave me some advice, wished me luck and gave me some kisses to sustain me on the journey.
My heart stopped again… I looked as if I wanted to cry… I could feel the freaking tears welling up behind my eyelids. She must have seen that look, and then hastily said… "Kiddinglah! You can sit for your exam!" I felt relived and yet tired at the same time. But really THANK GOD… it was ok. I took the exam and finished it and met Thomas for a drink. We went to Starbucks and had a good long chat. After that, I went to TIMES bookshop and I bought 3 books. * Shakes head * I know… I tried… but they were on 25% off. That's like huge! Anyways, yeah… so I went home and felt relieved.
The rest of the day saw me trying to finish my assignments though some really uncooperative people are making it really hard for me to do so. (blasted people really!) So, I had to think up new ways to do my work which is not easy as something's cannot be faked and etc. Hard to explainlah! Anyways, went to the Possums house later in the night and watched "Guess Who!" and played Zuma. I LOVE the game.

Portland's own Laura Veirs has done it again with her seventh album July Flame. Her new album as described on her website "explores the emotion of mid-summer. Drenched in wood smoke, sunlight, pollinators, pastoral dales, fireworks and warm nights, her lyrics explore the dichotomy between one's desire for permanence and security and the realization that such things rarely exist. Nowhere on the album is this inherent tension more crystallized than on the title track." It is truly beautiful and I would say some of her best work. I am so excited to see her play at The Tractor Tavern on March 13th!


Dealing with eye irritation, Kyrie Irving will miss Friday's game against Dallas at TD Garden.
BOSTON — Kyrie Irving proclaimed two weeks ago that he "literally" can do anything he wants to do on the basketball court anytime he wants to do it before adding that his job on this Celtics team was to figure out what he can do for his teammates for the squad to be most successful.
Without the five-time All-Star on Wednesday, the Celtics had no choice but to rely on each other to get the job done — which they did with impressive team basketball, rapid ball movement, aggressiveness attacking the rim, and mostly sturdy defense in a 115-102 victory against the uninspired Minnesota Timberwolves at TD Garden.
With Irving already ruled out on Thursday for Friday's game due to irritation in both eyes after taking a shot to the face late in Monday's loss at San Antonio, the Celtics are going to have to do it again against the Dallas Mavericks (8 p.m., NBCSB, ESPN, WBZ-FM/98.5) in the second game of a four-game homestand.
Terry Rozier is expected to get his second straight start at point guard in place of Irving.
"I think (it meant) more and more responsibility, more opportunities," said Gordon Hayward, who scored a Celtics career-high 35 points on 14-of-18 shooting on Wednesday, of Irving's absence. "I thought T-Ro played tremendous — especially there in the first quarter setting the tone. With those opportunities, you try to make the most of them.
While Hayward was the star of the game, Rozier was the key to igniting the engine as he scored 11 points in the first quarter with two steals.
Rozier wound up with 16 points, five assists, five steals and three rebounds on the night as the Celtics cruised to a 23-10 advantage in fastbreak points and piled up 52 points in the paint.
"(Rozier) was huge," said Marcus Smart. "Terry's one of the fastest guards in the league — especially in the open court. There's nothing you can do (against him).
Smart briefly left Wednesday's game and went back to the locker room with his right arm hanging by his side. But he soon returned to the court after pain he said he experienced from having a nerve near the shoulder hit cleared up.
While Smart's injury was simply a scare, Marcus Morris left the game for good in the second half after he experienced pain in his neck on a fall. Both Morris and rookie Robert Williams (groin) were deemed questionable for Friday's game on Thursday, while Aron Baynes remains out after left hand surgery last month.
Through all the injuries, the Celtics found their way through another sieve-like third quarter — in which they gave up 39 points and saw a 22-point lead cut to six — to bookend the night with a forceful start and finish.
Boston used a 22-4 run from late in the first quarter through the middle of the second quarter to build a 21-point lead. The Celtics then shot 64.7 percent (11 for 17) in the fourth quarter as they pushed the lead back as high as 19 before coasting home in the final minutes.
That was clearly the case for Hayward in the last three quarters as he followed up and 0-for-6 game on Monday with making 14 of his final 16 shots on Wednesday.
"I think it always helps when you get a couple at the rim that aren't challenged," said Stevens of Hayward, who had three dunks in the game. "So you got a couple of breakaways. You got the dunk on the drive at the end of the first half, the layup on the drive at the end of the first.

What it Takes to Build a Business: Creating a Sustainable Culture from the Ground Up
March 08, 2017 by Amanda Maksymiw
ICYMI, Fuze Executive Chairman and Co-founder Steve Kokinos sits down with Harvard Business Review's Curt Nickisch to discuss startups, talent, and finding the right zest to tackle new challenges
More than 10 years ago, Steve Kokinos and Derek Yoo co-founded Fuze – then ThinkingPhones – with one mission: to power every business conversation. In other words, to change the way people work together.
Fast forward to 2017 and the vision remains the same. What's changed is that it now fuels a business that has raised more than $300M in funding and is home to more than 700 employees.
Shifting market dynamics have also been a catalyst for change, not the least of which has been accelerated cloud adoption over the past five years. That aside, there was no silver bullet or magic formula that led Fuze to where it is now. Far from it, according to Kokinos. There have, however, been certain guiding principles throughout the journey of Fuze.
Editor Curt Nickisch recently sat down with Steve to pick his brain about what it takes to build a viable business. Here are a few key highlights for other entrepreneurs on a mission to breathe life into their own ideas:
Evolve or die. There is no "exact formula" for the financial, operational, or talent side of building a company; there will be different things to focus on at each stage along the way. Whether it is finding the appropriate balance between top-line and bottom-line growth or implementing more formal processes to continue building momentum after pivotal stages of growth, leaders must consciously understand the pace of change in an organization. High growth doesn't "just happen" nor is it a linear path to success. There will be some existential crises along the way, so get comfortable with that from the get-go.
Get personal. Steve personally interviewed almost all of the first 500 employees at Fuze to be sure they were a good fit for the company. What were a few key indications that they would be successful? 1) Do they have passion outside of work? 2) Do they have passion for the company? 3) Are they inquisitive? Not taking an opportunity to ask the founder of a company a question when given the chance can be an indication they'll miss other opportunities that arise in future interactions. Putting someone in front of a co-founder is also a good way to ensure that they're being properly vetted beforehand, so managers are asking the right questions before passing them on.
Communicate your vision. As a company grows, fewer people will be around who can easily state the original mission of the business. Make sure the vision and mission are clear so that all employees embody "who the company is" and can easily relay that back to others, whether a new team member, customer, or investor.
Stress the importance of team dynamics. Finding talent isn't just about finding "the best people," it's about finding "the best people who can work together." Company success relies on a more interconnected workforce than ever before, and team chemistry is essential to building a cohesive unit that also sustains a winning culture. Be conscious of intangible attributes that will support growth over time; people who will help others flourish as new team members onboard and who will take the time to train and coach the next era of talent to reflect your company's values and best practices – even as they evolve.
Embrace the role of middle management. As a company grows, problems must be solved – and consensus reached – less by sheer will (you can't always just walk up to someone and get what you need right away) and more through formal structure. Larger companies must rely heavily on middle managers to handle stressful situations, solve problems, and carry out company vision and goals.
Help people find their path. A startup is a tight-knit family: a small group of people spending a lot of time together. It's exciting in that moment in time to wear a lot of hats. Sometimes, it's painful – but necessary – to become more focused as a company grows. Help people identify their best roles so they can re-formulate goals based on their strengths. This will also help you hone in on new talent that can complement existing leadership and key players. People grow as the business grows, and that's a good thing so long as it's properly supported.
In a nutshell, Steve summarized his tips to create a successful business as follows: 1) Accept that you're never going to get it right 100% of the time, 2) Create an environment where people can learn, and 3) Allow people to be themselves: don't become too rigid too soon.

This game aims at raising awareness about Bullying in Egypt. I wanted to raise awareness about the seriousness of the issue as it truly affects many young children and can have some serious complications in the development of their personalities and sometimes, in extreme cases, can result in people taking their lives. It's an issue faced not only by students at school, but by adults as well. Bullying affects not only the one bullied, but the bully himself as well as the bystanders. It's the responsibility of the parents, the school and the peers to help stop the bullying. There are many ways that help overcome the effect of bullying, however, one must understand first the whole story and take it step by step. As any wrong action or advice given could very easily worsen the situation.
Primary and secondary research were conducted. Some of the situations mentioned happened in real life, secondary research is provided to back up these situations. I got the situations by talking to a mother whose child was bullied at school.
The player will take the role of Sarah. Sarah is the mother of two children Youssef (13 years old) and Sandra (17 years old), both of them attend the same school, your son is in grade 6 and your daughter is in grade 11. As a mother you notice changes in your sons' behavior, he no longer wants to go to school, he comes back from school with paint all over his shirt and doesn't see his friends anymore. After investigating the matter, you find out that he is getting bullied by his classmates for not speaking Arabic well. You don't know whether you should not interfere and allow him to stand up for himself, interfere by calling the school and informing them about the matter or remove him from the current school and face the risk of worse bullying at the other school he goes to. Note: He's enrolled in one of the most prestigious schools in Cairo.
Carol, I am so proud of you for this game. You did the good background research both by talking to someone and by getting secondary sources. I will go back to requiring this in future semesters and put weight on them for this assignment. Well done on all of it. I noticed that some of your scenarios don't branch out exactly because your "consequence" tells the player the good action to do. This works out fine, so I don't mind it.
I think the only thing I would recommend you add is references for all the well-chosen pictures. And include references you used to create the game in the very last part before players submit, both to show where you got this from and also in case players want to read further.
Thank you again for such a good quality game! It was worth the wait!!
The game was very interesting and it made me look at things from a different perspective. Instead of looking at bullying from a student's point of view and seeing it firsthand, it made me look at bullying as if I am a mother and that my child is going through these incidents at home. It also made me understand more that the psychological impact that bullying has on students and how it also effects the parents not only the child.
Good background research, easy to understand, because the game helps you put yourself in others shoe it makes the person know how it feels to be bullied. The only thing i would change is the picture because i think he/she can use a better one.

Israel has agreed to allow the U.S. to sell "certain weapons" to the United Arab Emirates, opening the door to the sale of F-35 fighter jets to the Middle Eastern country.
The agreement, which was finalized Thursday during a meeting between Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz and Defense Secretary Mark Esper at the Pentagon, says Israel removed its objection to the transfer of weapons to the UAE after securing promises that Tel Aviv would be able to upgrade its own capabilities and maintain its military edge in the region, according to a statement from top Israeli officials.

Having been a bridesmaid here at Cliveden aged just 7 years old, it almost seems as though Lydia was destined to become the House's Wedding Manager. Having worked in the hospitality industry from the age of 18, Lydia developed a wealth of experience in both the reservations and events side of the business before discovering her love of all things weddings. Lydia is passionate about creating unforgettable experiences and goes above and beyond to ensure each couple's day is perfect in every way.


The curse of dumping ex-statehouse siren (now Harambee house annex siren) Dennis Itumbi has caught up with Citizen TV's Jacque Maribe, her fiance, Joe Irungu alias Jowie Joe has been arrested in connection with the brutal murder of 28 year old, Monica Nyawira Kimani.
Monica was found dead in her apartment along Dennis Pritt road on Thursday shortly after jetting back from South Sudan.
Her lifeless body was discovered by her brother and sister after unsuccessfully trying to reach her the night before.
They found her in the bath tub with her throat slit.
Joe is apparently a trained security guard for hire. He works in the Dubai-UAE as a bouncer and sometimes he is hired locally by politicians as a private VIP security guard.
Reports indicated that Ms Kimani was in the company of a white man, a neighbour when three other men, known to her showed up. Two men signed in as Owen and Joe to visit Monica while the third man did not register his details, he was reported to have been in a white kanzu and only identified himself as a pastor, he is suspected to have slit her throat in cold blood.
Police arrested a man suspected to have gun shots wounds after shooting himself on the shoulder. According to a twitter user the man is said to have gone to a Nairobi hospital and was treated and discharged.
Police could not corroborate the shooting incident as claimed by the man as no cartridges were found. The neighbors also did not hear any gunshots on the said date.
So, Jacque Maribe is dating a murderer if the reports by police are upheld by courts of law, this is too much for a political reporter who is so biased in her reporting with anti Raila philosophy that seem embedded in her DNA.
It will be remembered that two years ago, Itumbi broke through Communication Centre security (where Citizen TV studios are located), stormed a live set and left Jacque in tears on her birthday. Well, little did she know that the man is a potential murderer!
if it ever had any power….


Is Your Small Law Firm Keeping Your Passwords Safe?
Home/Organization, Tech Tips & Resources/Is Your Small Law Firm Keeping Your Passwords Safe?
Your firm's lawyers have an obligation to your clients and your firm to keep sensitive information safe. Lawyers have access to a lot of confidential client information on their tech devices, so it's critical they keep computers, phones and tablets safe from hackers.
Don't reuse the same password across programs, devices or accounts. When one account is compromised, a hacker may try accessing other accounts using the same credentials. Choosing a variety of passwords is a defense system. It will slow down hackers and help your firm to contain security breaches.
As a rule of thumb, all passwords should be changed every three months. This way, if an old password has been compromised without your firm's knowledge, the new password restores a measure of security to the affected account.
Your attorneys should create passwords with a combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers and punctuation. When allowed, passphrases are also a good option. A passphrase can be a line from a song, for example, with numbers or punctuation marks used in place of some of the letters. Such phrases may be easier for your attorneys to remember than a string of random numbers, but, because of their length, harder for hacking software to guess.
If your attorneys follow smart password guidelines, they will have many different passwords to remember. Save the confusion of forgotten passwords by using a secure password manager to keep track of all your firm's login credentials. Password managers securely store all your login information, and many even generate strong passwords for you. Do some research to find the program that's right for your firm. You can start with these reviews from LifeHacker and PCMag.
While it may seem inconvenient to change passwords often and to use complicated strings of numbers, letters and symbols, it's far worth the return if taking these measures protects the integrity of your online accounts.

Lately I've received lots of Anonymous Questions about the role of a board of directors in relationship with the Executive Director. There are many legal grey areas associated with this relationship, so for Season 3 Episode 6, I asked my favorite nonprofit attorney Rachel Schaffer Lawson of Schaffer Law Firm to come back to the show and answer all the questions you have submitted. Please keep in mind her answers to my questions do not constitute legal advice for your specific nonprofit organization or situation! If you have further questions, please reach out to Rachel directly--she does not charge for phone calls or emails.
In Season 2, Episode 7, I spoke with the top directors of Safe Haven Family Shelter (a family homeless shelter) and Carpenter's Square (a faith-based community center) to find out how they became the CEO and Executive Director of their organizations. They told me about their professional journeys and gave advice for young nonprofit professionals who aspire to become CEOs of their own organizations.


Imagine if mild-mannered reporter Clark Kent was leading a double life … not as Superman but as baseball sensation Bud Smith, pitching for the Metropolis Titans.
Well, this actually happened, way back in 1947, in a series of episodes called Superman vs. Kryptonite (click to listen commercial-free) made for the radio show Adventures of Superman (click for the whole series, with classic commercials). Spanning over a decade, from 1940 to 1951, the show seemed way ahead of its time, tackling serious issues such as racism and corruption in politics.
Sometimes you can even hear Superman shouting famously, "Up, up, and away!" and then "Down, down!" to help listeners visualize his flying maneuvers.
While it's fun listening to this program, a particular delight can come from watching the action unfold. In this short film, news reporter Lois Lane and photographer Jimmy Olsen are trying to figure out who this baseball player really is … Bud Smith or …. Clark Kent?


The Mariners have agreed to a minor league deal with Jon Garland, according to Geoff Baker of the Seattle Times (on Twitter). Jason A. Churchill of Prospect Insider first reported that the two sides were nearing an agreement (Twitter link). The LSW client will receive an invite to major league spring training.
Garland has not pitched since July 2011 due to shoulder surgery and made it known this fall that he was planning on mounting a comeback. The veteran started throwing for teams in September but there hasn't been a great deal of news on him since then.
For his career, the 33-year-old owns a 4.32 ERA with 4.9 K/9 and 3.0 BB/9 across 12 seasons for the White Sox, Dodgers, D'Backs, Padres, and Angels.


A permanent establishment is a business other than the registered office through which the business carries out all or part of its activity.
Examples: a management head office, a branch office, an office, a factory, a mine, an oil or gas well, a quarry or any other place of extraction of natural resources, a construction site whose operation exceeds 12 months.
A permanent establishment is identified through its level of activity in terms of human and technical resources which are necessary for the business to continue operation.

We are on the verge of another recession. So says Shadow Stats economist John Williams, who warns that by the end of July it will become apparent to all Americans. That's when the government will release its latest GDP economic figures and according to Williams those numbers, combined with revisions for the first quarter of 2014, will show negative economic growth for a second quarter in a row, the official definition for recession.
In an interview with Greg Hunter's USA Watchdog, Williams explains that it all boils down to one critical factor. Credit lending has tightened up since the crash of 2008 and without it U.S. consumers don't have enough money to continue fueling the economy through consumption, the single most important element of economic growth.
We're turning down anew. The first quarter should revise into negative territory… and I believe the second quarter will report negative as well.
That will all happen by July 30 when you have the annual revisions to the GDP. In reality the economy is much weaker than that. Economic growth is overstated with the GDP because they understate inflation, which is used in deflating the number…
What we're seeing now is just… we've been barely stagnant and bottomed out… but we're turning down again.
The reason for this is that the consumer is strapped… doesn't have the liquidity to fuel the growth in consumption.
Income… the median household income, net of inflation, is as low as it was in 1967. The average guy is not staying ahead of inflation…
This has been a problem now for decades… You were able to buy consumption from the future by borrowing more money, expanding your debt. Greenspan saw the problem was income, so he encouraged debt expansion.
That all blew apart in 2007/2008… the income problems have continued, but now you don't have the ability to borrow money the way you used to. Without that and the income problems remaining, there's no way that consumption can grow faster than inflation if income isn't.
As a result – personal consumption is more than two thirds of the economy – there's no way you can have positive sustainable growth in the U.S. economy without the consumer being healthy.
It's just not going to happen.
With nearly 50 million Americans on food stamps, a record of over 10 million receiving disability benefits, and millions more depending on unemployment insurance to pay their bills it was only a matter of time before reality caught up with the fuzzy math being used to justify a so-called recovery.
The bottom line is that we, as consumers, have no more money left to throw into the economy. We're using most of it on food, rent, utilities, and now mandated health insurance taxes. And as Williams noted, incomes aren't rising, so without additional credit being pumped directly into the hands of the consumer there is no possible way to keep spending money.
Where is all this headed? Williams warns that the government's failure to address the economy and our national deficits will lead to disastrous consequences.
You are not seeing an annual deficit of $400 or $500 billion dollars. You are really seeing something close to $6 trillion.
That is beyond control, and it raises the question of long term solvency of the U.S. It is a big concern for the global markets. It's really the reason why nobody outside the United States wants to hold the dollar. Now, look at the U.S. economy, it is turning down. Economic strength is a big factor in the value of a currency.
As the renewed downturn gains wider acceptance or wider recognition, that will intensify the selling pressure. When someone starts selling, it's going to be a race for the door, and I am looking for a dollar selling panic to be the trigger for the onset of hyperinflation.
What we are seeing in inflation now is a pickup in inflation, but it's not a hyperinflation. Massive dollar selling–that will be the trigger for the hyperinflation.
I don't see what will save it at this point. . . . Now we are to the point that the dollar has been ignored for years. The federal deficit has been ignored for years. . . . That's what we are on the brink of disaster with, and that is what has to be addressed now, and that's not happening.
The way I see it, the dollar could go to zero in terms of its purchasing power. You don't want to have your assets in U.S. dollars.
John Williams previously forecast that A Domestic Hyperinflationary Environment Should Evolve by 2014. Food prices, gas prices, electricity prices and the cost of most other essential commodities are rising unabated. Currently, we are seeing an annual rate of inflation for food of over 7%, a level that will lead to serious problems coming into Fall.
Now, as Williams predicted earlier this year, a recession will be apparent once the government is forced to revise their economic growth figures later this summer.
He's two-for-two so far and he says that what we'll begin to see next is a loss of confidence in not just the U.S. economy, but the status of the U.S. dollar as well.
Given the rampant manipulation from government and global central banks, the timing of the end game is elusive. But what we know is that nature always wins out, despite our efforts to control it.
This time around, when nature finally shows its economic fury, it could well go down as the largest collapse in the history of the world.
The time to prepare for it is now.
