The UIEvent interface represents simple user interface events.
UIEvent derives from Event. Although the UIEvent.initUIEvent() method is kept for backward compatibility, you should create a UIEvent object using the UIEvent() constructor.
Several interfaces are direct or indirect descendants of this one: MouseEvent, TouchEvent, FocusEvent, KeyboardEvent, WheelEvent, InputEvent, and CompositionEvent.
This interface also inherits properties of its parent, Event.
Is a Boolean indicating whether the bubbling of the event has been canceled or not.
Returns a long with details about the event, depending on the event type.
Returns a Boolean indicating whether the event produced a key character or not.
Returns the horizontal coordinate of the event relative to the current layer.
Returns the vertical coordinate of the event relative to the current layer.
Returns the horizontal coordinate of the event relative to the whole document.
Returns the vertical coordinate of the event relative to the whole document.
Returns an instance of the InputDeviceCapabilities interface, which provides information about the physical device responsible for generating a touch event.
Returns a WindowProxy that contains the view that generated the event.
Returns the numeric keyCode of the key pressed, or the character code (charCode) for an alphanumeric key pressed.
This interface also inherits methods of its parent, Event.
Initializes a UIEvent object. If the event has already being dispatched, this method does nothing.
InputDeviceCapabilities Draft Added sourceCapabilities property.
The definition of 'UIEvent' in that specification. Obsolete Added the UIEvent() constructor, deprecated the initUIEvent() method and changed the type of view from AbstractView to WindowProxy.

Vanderbilt needs two victories to earn bowl eligibility, but it can only win one at a time. First up is Saturday's game against Ole Miss.
It will be cold and dark by the time the game kicks off, but it's an ultra-important game for the Commodores. So will Vanderbilt fans show up? They have reason to be frustrated. The Commodores suffered disappointing losses to South Carolina and Florida in the other two SEC home games this season. But a win will revive bowl hopes, and it will be a warmup for next week's home game against Tennessee.
Ole Miss has the No. 1 passing offense in the SEC and ranks fourth nationally at 355 yards per game. Quarterback Jordan Ta'amu has connected with seven players who have made at least one catch of 48 yards or longer. The Rebels can go deep, and they will use several targets to do so. Vanderbilt must make sound decisions in pass coverage to keep deep threats in front of the secondary.
This has been a key for Vanderbilt for several weeks, so why change what's working? In the past two games, Ke'Shawn Vaughn has rushed for 354 yards, averaged 8.6 yards per carry and scored five TDs. The more touches the Commodores can give Vaughn, the better their chances are at winning, especially against the SEC's worst rushing defense.
Derek Mason said there are no secrets this late into the season, and he's right. Vanderbilt's offensive path to success runs through Vaughn, wide receiver Kalija Lipscomb and tight end Jared Pinkney. So why not get them the ball immediately? Last week, Kyle Shurmur threw high-percentage passes to Lipscomb and Pinkney early, and they finished with 187 yards and two TDs.
Ryley Guay hasn't been as bad as it seems. As the first-year kicker, the walk-on has made 9 of 16 field goals. But he missed one field goal in each of Vanderbilt's three losses by single-digit margins (Notre Dame, Kentucky, Missouri). If this is another close one, Guay cannot miss a single field goal. A missed kick may lose the game.
PODCAST: Vanderbilt football feeling pressure?


Happy first day of 2016! I hope you had a fabulous New Year's Eve!
Whenever I look back at previous years, it always seems like so much has happened and, I like to highlight at least one significant event each month so I can remember.

New Release – Frozen Smile by splurge.art
Posted byleancool20 1 June 2021 14 June 2021 Posted inRelease TalkTags:Begegnung mit dem alten Meister, Frozen Smile, Splurge Art, splurge.art, The sunflower tales, What we are gettin
splurge.art is the project-name of the German collaboration between Andi (music and recording) and Ralf (lyrics and concept). They have released several singles and albums together. Their new track 'Frozen Smile / Shaping the Landscape' will be out on 4th June.
Ralf: "The basis for the song Frozen Smile is the memory of a company visit and a photo. Both memories brought the horror of land mines before my eyes and made me write this song. While the first two verses describe these memories, the third verse is an appeal to take the suffering described as motivation in order to stand up for peace"
"The memories itself go back a few years. The text was written by Ralf in 2020, after the release of 'The Sunflower Tales'. As with this album and also with the follow-up 'Begegnung mit dem alten Meister', Ralf first wrote the lyrics, which were then set to music by Andi."
"The song will be released as a single on June 4th and later as part of the album "What we are gettin'.The first two splurge.art albums are concept albums. The third album 'What we are gettin' will be a collection of more political songs that deal with the question of how we want to live in the future in the face of climate change."
Is this release different from your previous releases?
Ralf: "For us every release is a complete different experience. Only the base condition is always the same. I write the lyrics and give the frame for the concept. Then Andi starts doing songwriting and first recordings. After the last album with lyrics in German language (it's the story of the river Rhein – told in the perspective of the river) the next album will be in English language. This makes sense because the concept and meaning of the album is related to the entire planet."
What's your favourite memory of writing and/or recording?
Andi: "The learning process in doing songwriting and much more experience in recording and mastering give much more options every time we start the next album. So we trust more in our ideas and can do more experiments with new instruments, sounds and song-structures. We're not a live band due to the fact that all instruments are played by me, but lots of sessions and solo performances find the way to YouTube and PromoVideos. We think that this will have a deeper impact on further recordings where we plan to do more live-recordings."
"The song frozen-smile was written just on a Hammond B3. To bring more rhythm into the track Andi added more instruments. From the beginning the vocal melody was the same, but even in the last recording Andi mispronounced the word "pitiable". The sound of the word "pitaiabel" was completely burned into Andi's brain. It took up to 30 takes until he finally reached a sufficient result regarding the "pitiable kids"."
Andi: "I'm quite sure that Ralf is always looking for strange words that I'm not able to sing. I remember one line in the first album: "This fortunate coincidence…". Come on! Try to sing these words!"

MacLeod draws parallels between how art and mass media are created, circulated, and consumed, articulating her findings with satirical wit. Her works, which range from photography and painting to large-scale installations and sculpture, examine how context and discourse can transform images, objects, or sounds, changing the way they resonate with individuals and in society.

(Mrs. Geraldine Stratton) "Lumber-jacks and field hands. Let me tell you; it is an error to try and educate them. Besides, they don't want an education. Can't you see that thinking would only give them a headache? Their ambition is to belong to a dozen lodges, consume religion without restraint, and, when they die, go straight up to heaven. Wasting $5,000 on a school is plain silly when you could give $100 to old Ned, the best colored preacher in the world -- who will do more to keep Negroes in their place than all your schools put together."
(Unnamed) "Years ago, in the depth of the forest, but not so far that one could help hearing of a late afternoon the somber echo of cow bells stealing across the valley from Gridlestone estate -- lived the workman Jasper Landry. Typical of the thousands of poor Negro laborers in the Great Delta, lacking education and the vote, but in whose heart burned as eternal hope: a home for their families, a few acres of land, a church to attend, and an education for their children."
(Unnamed) "Sylvia Landry; a schoolteacher from the South visiting her northern cousin; is typical of the intelligent Negro of our times."
(Unnamed) "Y'all knows what I always preach. This is a land for the white man and black folk got ta know their place. Let the white man go to Hell with his politics, wealth, and sins. Give me Jesus. Leave it to me, gen'men, I always preach that the vices and sins of the white folk will end them up in Hell. When the Judgement Day comes, more Negroes than whites will rise up to Heaven. Yessir, white folks is mighty fine."
(Unnamed) "Again, I've sold my birthright. All for a miserable 'mess of pottage. Negroes and whites; all are equal. As for me, miserable sinner, Hell is my destiny."
(Philip Gridlestone) "Poor white trash; and no better than a Negro."
(Philip Gridlestone) "I have always treated the coloreds well; but I remember that my father, who owned a thousand slaves, had callouses on his hands from --"
(Philip Gridlestone) "-- and he showed me that was the only way to keep 'em in line."
(Unnamed) "Reverend Wilson Jacobs, founder of the school and apostle of education for the black race. Constance, his sister, Reverend Jacob's sole ally in his unequal struggle against the Negroes' ignorance."

(Sylvia Landry) "It is my duty and the duty of each member of our race to help destroy ignorance and superstition. I am going up north where I'll try to raise the money we need. May God be with us."
(Alma Prichard) "Do pardon me for interrupting; but I forgot this --"
(Unnamed) "The school has too many students, the money is just about gone, and Wilson hasn't the heart to turn away the new students who keep coming every day. The state pays only $1.49 a year to educate each Negro child; and the colored people who live here are too poor to help us."

Fed's Once-Secret Data Released to Public
Dan Crawford | December 31, 2011 11:59 am
Bloomberg notes:
Fed's Once-Secret Data Released to Public By editor
Bloomberg News today released spreadsheets showing daily borrowing totals for 407 banks and companies that tapped Federal Reserve emergency programs during the 2007 to 2009 financial crisis. It's the first time such data have been publicly available in this form.
To download a zip file of the spreadsheets, go to http://bit.ly/Bloomberg-Fed-Data. For an explanation of the files, see the one labeled "1a Fed Data Roadmap."
The day-by-day, bank-by-bank numbers, culled from about 50,000 transactions the U.S. central bank made through seven facilities, formed the basis of a series of Bloomberg News articles this year about the largest financial bailout in history.
"Scholars can now examine the data and continue the analysis of the Fed's crisis management," said Allan H. Meltzer, a professor of political economy at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh and the author of three books on the history of the U.S. central bank.

Guest Post: Anti-Investor Supreme Court Decision and the SEC
Dan Crawford | December 12, 2011 9:29 am
By Jeff McCord of The Investor Advocate
Impending SEC Recommendation on Anti-Investor Supreme Court Decision a Bellwether on Regulator's View of "Public Interest"
In one of its filings prior to U.S. Judge Jed Rakoff's celebrated November 28th refusal to rubber stamp an SEC-Citicorp deal allowing the bank – a "recidivist offender" — to escape significant damages and an admission of wrongdoing for what may have been egregious, knowing fraud in Citi's sale of bad mortgage-related assets to unwitting investors, the SEC incredibly asserted that "the public interest . . . is not part of [the] applicable standard of judicial review [of the proposed Citicorp settlement.]" To that, Manhattan federal Judge Rakoff simply responded: "This is erroneous." [see Rakoff ruling here ]
Just a few years' ago, the idea that a federal judge would need to remind a federal regulatory agency that the judicial and executive branches work on behalf of the public interest would have seemed ludicrous. Now, it is long over-due.
An impending SEC recommendation to Congress (due in January) on whether an anti-US investor Supreme Court decision (Morrison, discussed below) should be overridden will help answer a timely question: has the Commission heard and understood Judge Rakoff's admonition?
"Prosecuting Bus Boys and Nannies rather than Wall Street Bandits"
When it comes to the need to hold Wall Street fraud perpetrators accountable in the public interest, the Justice Department itself received a wake-up call from one long-time Member of the House Judiciary Committee, Zoe Lofgren (D-CA,16th District), who in May said prosecutors were more focused on immigration offenses than the on-going financial crisis:
The Department [of Justice] is spending its resources prosecuting nannies and bus boys who are trying to get back to their families. And, yet we have not brought any prosecutions of the bandits on Wall Street who brought the nation and the world to the brink of financial disaster. (Bloomberg)
Led by Lofgren, the California delegation of Democratic Members of Congress on October 10 called for Administration officials and the Federal Reserve to conduct an investigation into "systemic wrongdoing by financial institutions" in the mortgage markets.
Regulators Must Believe in Regulation to Prosecute White Collars, Professor Says
In a story on Judge Rakoff's ruling, even the reliably establishment FORTUNE magazine opined:
For decades, financial wrongdoers have been able to skip public accountability, and slide out from under the consequences by paying out a sometimes substantial sum and moving on to the next deal.
Like Judge Rakoff's obvious conclusion that the SEC should work on behalf of the public interest, University of California professor of criminology and law Henry N. Pontell made this "goes without saying" observation in a New York Times interview:
When regulators don't believe in regulation and don't get what's going on, there can be no major white-collar crime prosecutions.
Denying US Investors' Recourse When Foreign Stock Issuers Defraud Them
In what may be a bellwether on the SEC's understanding of "what's going on" in relation to its mission of protecting investors in the public interest, in January the Commission must recommend to Congress whether or not it should override one of the most notorious anti-US investor Supreme Court decisions to come out of a Court not known for acting in the interests of investors, consumers or the public. Specifically, the Dodd-Frank Act directs the SEC to review and make recommendations on Morrison v. National Australia Bank Ltd, a 2010 decision that denies U.S. investors the legal right to hold accountable any foreign listed company (such as Toyota, BP, Sony, DaimlerChrysler or Deutsche Bank) that defrauds them in a securities transaction — even if the wrongdoing takes place on U.S. soil. The decision has caused many meritorious investor lawsuits to be tossed from U.S. courts, denying Americans recourse.
Many pension funds, retirement plans, investor and public interest groups have written letters asking the SEC to recommend Congress override Morrison. Fourteen public pension funds managing more than $700 million in retirement funds for teachers, policemen, firemen, and other public servants in California, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, North Carolina, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and other states made a common sense argument:
[Morrison should be reversed because under that decision, foreign companies] can market their shares to American investors, can obtain a significant portion of their market capitalization from American investors, can file their financial statements with the [SEC], and can even engage in fraudulent conduct on U.S. soil, yet cannot be held liable under U.S. law to the victims of their fraud.
And, the pension funds (like Judge Rakoff and more than one professor) reminded the SEC that its mission as stated on its own website is "to protect investors and maintain fair and orderly markets." The Exchange Act that established the SEC actually says protecting "the public interest and the interest of investors" are the objectives of the law.
Prudent Fund Management Practices "Turned Upside Down" by Supremes
For decades, to discharge their fiduciary responsibility, public pension funds have invested only in securities, including foreign stocks and bonds, protected under United States securities laws. And, prior to Morrison for more than twenty years, modern portfolio management practices dictated that pension funds reduce risk through investment diversity – both by country and industry.
For pension funds, investing in foreign based companies such as Toyota, Nokia, BP and others had been common and considered prudent," explains Salvatore J. Graziano, a partner at the law firm of Bernstein Litowitz Berger and Grossman, LLP and president of the National Association of Shareholder and Consumer Attorneys. "Fund managers knew that if a foreign company they invested in committed fraud, corporate governance abuses, or other wrongdoing within the United States or harmed U.S. investors, they could hold such a company and its managers accountable and seek recovery of their investment losses in U.S. District Courts. These fund management practices and investor protections were turned upside down in 2010 by Morrison.
Watch SEC on Morrison
Has the Administration heard and absorbed the messages sent to it by Judge Rakoff, many of America's largest pension funds, professors and millions of polled individuals that its' Wall Street policies may have strayed from the public interest? In coming weeks, watch what the SEC recommends to Congress regarding Morrison.

15 Cobra Kai Characters Ranked By Likability (2023 Updated)
10 Best Cobra Kai Birthday Party Ideas (2023 Updated) Reading 15 Cobra Kai Characters Ranked By Likability (2023 Updated) 10 minutes Next 20 Best Cobra Kai Gifts (2023 Updated)
By Sara Peterson Apr 27, 2022 0 comments
Nobody thought Cobra Kai would become a thing when it was first streamed on YouTube Premium, 34 years since the Karate Kid movie series ended. And when it migrated to Netflix in 2021, the TV series garnered a wider audience and more fans.
If you're reading this, you're probably one of the fans who got curious about who is the most likable among the characters. To satisfy your curiosity, here are the Cobra Kai characters ranked by likability.
Top 15 Cobra Kai Characters Ranked By Likability
1. Johnny Lawrence
Believe it or not, Johnny Lawrence has successfully redeemed himself in the new Cobra Kai series. He used to be a hateful villain during his teenage years in Karate Kid movies. However, he finally achieved one of the best personality developments in the series.
Johnny slowly changed from a villain to someone who tried (and still tries) to make things right. His sensei, Kreese, may have corrupted his young mind, but he finally learned to accept his flaws and conquests as an adult. He managed to applaud Daniel for beating him when he tasted his first All-Valley defeat in the past season.
When he took Miguel Diaz under his wing and made him a confident, formidable warrior, he got a second chance to revive his broken dreams. He also founded Eagle Fang.
2. Miguel Diaz
Miguel Diaz was once a friendly teenager who never liked the idea of hurting other people, not even in self-defense, no matter how hard he was bullied. However, Miguel made a huge character development when Johnny Lawrence, his unlikeable neighbor, taught him to fight for himself and instilled the Cobra Kai philosophy.
Miguel may have a few breakdowns where he could not control his emotions, but he never really dwelled on staying in the dark for long. Miguel is one of the best fighters, a protagonist/hero, where the writers painted him to be that "likable" boy from the beginning, and hopefully, until the end of the series. But, who is Miguel's father?
3. Daniel LaRusso
Daniel LaRusso captured the hearts of many fans from Karate Kid Part I to III. Being the Cobra Kai series protagonist/hero, it's not surprising to learn that he still has that good-natured personality as an adult.
LaRusso remains a cordial person, where he overcomes his apprehensions like an adult–wiser and bolder. When he was younger, Miyagi used to help him control his emotions and clear his clouded mind. Now, he has Amanda, his wife, to help him give better judgment and become more confident.
4. Tory Nichols
Tory Nichols is one of the most hated cast. However, she has a massive fan base, too. Sorry, Tory haters, but this troubled teen captured the hearts of many fans through her renegade and bold personality.
Tory Nichols led a very tough life, being the only non-disabled member of her family. She grew up strong to fight for everything just to live by, including their food to eat and shelter to live in.
She may have a lot of insecurities, but she has this "troubled child" aura that makes everyone seem to think she's just off-track. Her story was too tragic that most fans think she only needed a chance to improve herself.
5. Samantha Larusso
Sam LaRusso is genuinely amiable, just like her dad, Daniel LaRusso. Sam grew up in a quite healthy family where her basic needs were provided–food, shelter, and love from her family. However, being the daughter of someone like Daniel was too much for the budding martial artist.
Sam's father wanted her to stay on the Miyagi Do path. However, Sam LaRusso wants to achieve her own fighting style and not just stay under her father's shadow. Sam finally achieved it in the All-Valley Tournament in Season 4.

6. Robby Keene
Like Johnny, Robby Keene is also a troubled teen, fighting his own demons, trapped in an emotional rollercoaster. He befriended Daniel to infuriate his estranged dad, who never really became a father to him. Robby joined Miyagi Do to learn karate from his father's old rival in Season 1. Miyagi Do karate helped him achieve inner peace.
However, one of Robby's mistakes was when he lied to Daniel and Sam, whom he started dating, that his father was Johnny. His lies and intentional deception made the LaRussos angry, making Robby return to his dark, old path. Once again, the boy who tried so hard to change became ruthless.

7. Aisha Robinson
Aisha Robinson is a very likable character because she is very caring, intelligent, and confident. She showed her compassionate heart and never lost her core kindness from start to finish. Some may call her a people-pleaser, but her obsession with getting along with everyone is beneficial.
She's the best friend of Sam, but she always makes sure to stand up for Cobra Kai. She thinks fighting with one another is unhealthy.

8. Eli Moskowitz (Hawk)
Eli "Hawk" Moskowitz was once bullied because of his medical condition. However, his character made a 360 turn when the once bullied teenager became the aggressor himself. Using the fighting style he learned in Cobra Kai in the past, he bullies other students for no apparent reason.
Hawk discarded everything he once was, every hint of being his "old self," because he couldn't stand to remember his past. He wants to become the strong "Hawk" to prove he's worthy. Hawk became too self-absorbed when he finally tasted the delight of people recognizing his full potential as an excellent fighter.
But when Hawk broke his best friend Demetri's arm in Season 3, he reverted to being Eli. Amidst his mistakes, he retained his hard-earned confidence and continued to fight.
9. Demetri Alexopoulos
Demetri is one of Daniel's proteges. He earned his self-confidence through the Miyagi Do philosophy and under his sensei's guidance. He used to be very pessimistic because he wanted to protect himself from being hurt, like how his bullies used to do.
He guarded his heart by building a wall of negativity and distrust of other people around him. He was once a lonely teenage boy who had no friends. However, no matter how hard his life was, he overcame those hardships through Daniel-san.
10. Mr. Miyagi
Mr. Miyagi was the sensei of the once bullied Daniel LaRusso, teaching him life lessons and martial arts to protect himself [1]. He shaped Daniel into an honorable man who always promotes a fair fight. His impact on Daniel was lifelong. He gave his protege wise and impactful teachings he could never forget.
Aside from Daniel, Mr. Miyagi also shaped another legendary Karate Kid, Julie Pierce. He taught her self-control and guided Pierce through a difficult time in her life. Although he passed away at eighty-six, he left a legacy with his impactful teachings.
11. Amanda LaRusso
Amanda LaRusso is Daniel LaRusso's confident and very capable wife. She runs their company, LaRusso Auto Group, as its CEO. She is more level-headed than Daniel, and she often gives him great pieces of advice throughout the series.
However, her husband tends not to take them, as shown in almost every Cobra Kai season. Amanda also acts like a referee between the rivals Johnny and Daniel, constantly telling the karate experts to forget bout their past. She's an excellent mother to Sam, Anthony, and Johnny's son, Robby.
12. Kenny Payne
Kenny Payne is the youngest Cobra Kai character. This new guy only appeared in Season 4, but he has already made a huge impact on most fans. He's the younger brother of Shawn Payne, Robby Keene's friend and juvenile detention cellmate. How old is Kenny, though?
Like Miguel, learning karate and martial arts made Shawn's little brother an excellent fighter who was once a bullied child. One of his greatest bullies is Anthony LaRusso and his friends.
13. Anthony LaRusso
Anthony LaRusso is the black sheep of the respected LaRusso family. While his whole family has the best personalities in the series, he was an evil bully. He and his friends constantly bullied the younger Payne, who became a strong Cobra Kai student and an excellent fighter.
14. Terry Silver
Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith) is one of the most hated characters in the Cobra Kai series. He occasionally does heinous crimes, from The Karate Kid series to the new Cobra Kai franchise.
Although he is one of the best fighters, Terry has manic behavior, probably because of his excessive cocaine usage. He tends to hurt people, so he'll get whatever he wants, like how he has hurt (and almost killed) his old friend Stingray.
15. John Kreese
Nobody could take the crown off John Kreese as one of the most hated characters in the series. He's also an outright murderer with distorted vision and extremely violent tendencies. He lost his capacity for mercy during the Vietnam war.
He literally has no mercy - fighters or not. Just like Silver, he kills people to achieve what he wants. He once tried to kill Johnny, one of his star students in Cobra Kai dojo.
Who is the evilest character in Cobra Kai?
John Kreese is the evilest character in Cobra Kai. He has the most distorted mind, always thinking of harming other people to achieve his dreams. He also has an overpowering hunger for fame and recognition.
Who is the strongest Cobra Kai character?
Our team picks Johnny Lawrence as the strongest Cobra Kai character. This may sound controversial to some because he succumbed to Daniel; however, Johnny still managed to become a threat 34 years later. He can fight with Daniel and Kreese even when he stops training in modern times, making him a stronger fighter.
Ranking the Cobra Kai characters is very subjective, as we may see things differently than how other fans see these characters. However, our ranking was also influenced by other people's choices. We conducted a quick survey from our friends and other fans who constantly watch the series to get these results.
How did you find our ranking? Who's your favorite character? Tell us in the comment section below!

Fidel Castro was born on August 13, 1926 in Cuba's eastern Oriente province to parents Angel Castro and Lina Ruz. His father, Angel, was a successful sugar plantation owner. His mother, Lina, was a maid for Angel and his former wife, Angel had an affair with Lina. This event is significant because he would later become the leader of Cuba. He would make many changes to the cuban government ("Fidel Castro" 2).
In 1950, Castro graduated from the University of Havana with a law degree. This event is significant because it marked when Fidel was truly able to make his own decisions in regards to his profession. The school played a very important role in his ideas of government. At the university of Havana he became involved in the social-democratic Ortodoxo party which helped him to develop his own ideas of government (Axelrod and Phillips 47-48).
Winston S. Churchill takes home the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1953. Other than being a writer, he was also a politician and soldier. He specialized in non-fiction books. This event is significant because it is one of the most important awards an author can receive. Only the greatest writers win the Nobel Prize for Literature (Grun).
Attack on Batista
On July 26,1953 Castro led an attack on Batista's dictatorship in Cuba, trying to overthrow it. The attack was suicidal so not many were expected to survive. This event is significant because it was one of the first actions he took to overthrow Cuba's government at the time. When caught, he was sentenced to 15 years in jail but was released early due to public amnesty ("Fidel Castro" 465-67).
Second attack on Batista
In November, 1956 Castro and 81 others attacked Batista once again trying to overthrow his government. This event is significant because it is what led him to control Cuba in the next couple of years. Even though he had many failed attempts to take over Cuba he kept persevering and ultimately succeeded ("Fidel Castro" 365-67).
Sworn in as Prime Minister
On February 16, 1959 Castro was sworn in as prime minister. This event is significant because it officially marked the start of Fidel Castro's leadership in Cuba. He would be the leader of Cuba for many years to come and change Cuba greatly ("Castro Sworn In").
Relationship with U.S.S.R.
In 1960, Fidel Castro establishes an alliance with the U.S.S.R. and Cuba. This event is important because it declares that Cuba agrees with many of the U.S.S.R.'s radical and communist government ideas and sets them apart from most of the world. This also angers the United States and causes them to cut off ties with Cuba (Axelrod and Phillips 47-48).
Bay of Pigs
In April of 1961 the United States launched a failed plan to overthrow Castro. First, a group of Cuban exiles tried to strike against Cuban airfields, but Castro had already discovered this and moved his planes. Then, the exiles invaded Cuba's south shore but were immediately stopped by the Cuban army. This event is significant because it greatly increased the tensions between the U.S. and Cuba. It clearly showed that the CIA was trying to take down Castro and failed ("Castro Sworn In").
The Soviet Union stationed missiles in Cuba aimed for the United States in 1962. This event is significant because it almost sent the world into a nuclear war. The dispute ended when the Soviet Union agreed to remove nuclear weapons in Cuba on the condition that the United States also agrees to withdraw nuclear weapons in turkey and halt their attempts to overthrow Castro as leader of Cuba ("Fidel Castro" 1).
Earthquake in Alaska
There was a major earthquake in Alaska in 1964. This event is significant because 114 people died and it caused $500 million in property damage. These losses were something Alaska had to work to get over for many years after (Grun).
Expo '70
In 1970, Japan held a world fair in Osaka. Many pieces in the expo looked very futuristic and the themes were Progress and Harmony for Mankind. This event is significant because it was the first world exposition held in Asia. Expo '70 also showed off Japan's engineering architectural skills (Grun).
Dispute between the Church of England and Roman Catholic Church
In 1971 the Church of England and the Roman Catholic Church end a 400 year fight. The fight was over the meaning of the word Eucharist. This event is significant because it restored peace between two powerful religious groups. The dispute ended when they both agreed on "the essential meaning"(Grun).
Falling of the Bridge of Mostar
In 1993, the Bridge of Mostar was destroyed. It was destroyed in former Yugoslavia by a Croatian grenade. This event is significant because we lost a world heritage monument. The bridge was built in the 16th century (Grun).
American Ballet Theater stages new productions
The American Ballet Theater staged two new productions in 1993. The productions were called "Requiem" and "Sleeping Beauty". This event is significant because these two productions would later become iconic. Kenneth Mac Milan, the choreographer of the production was esteemed by many (Grun).
In February of 2008 Fidel Castro announced that he would not be serving another term.It surprised the people greatly, even though they knew he was getting older. This event is significant because it marked the end of Castro's rule and that somebody else would be controlling Cuba from that time forward ("Castro Sworn In").
On November 25, 2016 Fidel Castro died at 90 years old. In Cuba, there was a nine day mourning period. In other parts of the country, people celebrated the death of a man who separated their families and made them feel unsafe. This event is significant because he was in rule for approximately 49 years. His brother, Raul Castro, was already controlling Cuba by the time of his death ("Fidel Castro" 2).

'Blinded by the Light', visually, culturally compelling
Commentary, Writing
'Blinded by the Light', visually, culturally compelling
by Kip Mayes
In a recent trend, movies surrounding "classic" artists have become somewhat of a cultural phenomenon. Movies such as "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Rocketman" cover the lives of these famous musicians and the struggles and triumphs they went through to find fame. "Blinded by the Light," which is set to release on August 16, 2019, follows this trend while being a visual and diverse masterpiece. This Bruce Springsteen spectacle juggles a timeless coming-of-age story with the struggles of a Pakistani living in 1980s England. Directed by Gurinder Chadha ("Bend It Like Beckham"), the plot follows Javed (Viveik Kalra), an Asian teenager growing up in a bigotry-riddled town. With dreams of being a writer written off by his strict and traditional father, Javed finds himself stuck within these traditional values until a friend introduces him to the music of Bruce Springsteen.
"Blinded by the Light" is much more than your average coming-of-age story and struggles with topics many people have gone through but have never seen represented on the big screen. With a main cast containing mainly people of color, this movie highlights a new level of Asian representation rarely seen in highly anticipated movies. Although this movie tackles the racial issues seen in England in the '80s, there are parallels between the racial injustice that was happening then compared to racial injustices that are still happening today. With many movies aiming to become more diverse with their representation, "Blinded by the Light" takes a huge step in the right direction.
From the moment the film starts, it features interesting and eye-catching graphics. By making the lyrics of Springsteen's music literally jump off the screen and into the world surrounding Javed, it's clear to see the impact of this new form of media he discovered. This is a very montage-oriented movie, but it is done in a visually and musically interesting way that still keeps the audience engaged with the story. By using montages to express changes or revelations within the characters' lives, Chadha tells a much longer and personal story within a shorter amount of time.
Although this movie does follow the trend of movies about famous musical artists, it explores the life of an artist in a different and unconventional way. This isn't necessarily about Bruce Springsteen's journey to fame; rather, it highlights on parallels between Javed and Springsteen's lives and how the music and emotions of someone else can help guide you through your own struggles. By showing how similar these two completely different people are, Chadha tells the story of Bruce Springsteen while also telling the story of someone who doesn't have a huge social standing like a famous musician might have.
"Blinded by the Light" has set a new standard for not only biopic movies dedicated to famous people, but for coming-of-age stories in general. The advanced level of diversity and visual art portrayed throughout a movie that covers a compelling and important topic makes this a film that should absolutely not be missed.

Billie Eilish's highly anticipated debut album sparks a revolution for teenage musicianship.
Billie's debut album "WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?" released on March 28.
Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O'Connell has been a worldwide phenomenon and intriguing teen to watch ever since her debut EP "Don't Smile At Me" introduced a prodigy that the public hasn't seen in a long time. Her viral hits of 2016 called "Ocean Eyes" and "Bellyache" is what I'd recommend listening to first if you are new to the Eilish wave.
She is a complete antithesis of a teenage musician with shocking yet ominous lyrics with a brazen standpoint of incoherence to traditional music rules. With over 10 million Instagram followers, not only her music represents a typical freshness but her unique innovation to fashion.
O'Connell's upbringing is unlike many artists before her starting with being homeschooled. She's been writing music ever since junior high yet her pen game is razor-sharp and salient ahead of her prime. Her older brother Finneas enlightened the arts into her career and her major inspirations of Tyler the Creator and Lana Del Rey shapes her subgenres.The poetry she writes balances a bridge of gothic self-awareness and sweet storytelling.
The intro reminds us right off the bat that Billie is still a presumptuous teenager, removing her braces to state "I have taken out my Invisalign and this is the album." In the opening song "Bad Guy," she seems to be toying with a lover and becoming a comic book character. The bass-heavy instrumental has a Gorillaz, modern-day technique to it as it suits her boastful toughness of a sarcastic villain.
This album is one of the few that not many artists can claim a technique so which is whispering. The majority of the album has Eilish singing in low tranquility. It's highly expected that new listeners will turn up their sound systems to max volume to fully hear her messages. However, one of her main goals in the debut is high intimacy where she's most comfortable in whispering.
"Xanny" is the next track that discusses Xanax, a prescription drug that's recreationally used in hip-hop music today that's unfortunately taken multiple artists' lives. Billie reflects on this drug, wondering why stars are using it for fun and giving a message to never try prescriptions for un-related health concerns. "On designated drives home / only one who's not stoned / Don't give me a Xanny, now or ever," she sings.
The pair of tracks that would disturb you from Billie's artistry is "you should see me in a crown" and "Bury a Friend." The haunting visuals of arachnids crawling upon and even inside Billie's face in "crown" while she's asserting herself to a throne speaks volumes to why she's such a commodity. "Bury a Friend" has Eilish in one of her most vulnerable states of mind where she's writing from the point of view of the monster inside herself. The self-destructive thoughts and imagery bring the answer to the title of her album of wondering if there's an afterlife.
In the song "all good girls go to hell," it's an experiment of good and evil while using Bible images of judgment. "All the good girls go to Hell / 'cause even God Herself has enemies / And once the water starts to rise / and Heaven starts to rise / She'll want the Devil on her team." She switches God's usual, righteous view into an immortal being that's in need of company from his archrival Lucifer.
The song that passed me by a few times would be "8" where her voice is definitely mixed with some sharp EDM tricks. If you were to guess that she would be sobbing, that's a close answer as she is weeping over an ex of the past who views Billie as "see-through." "Don't treat me badly / But you said it so sadly / So I did the best I could / Not thinkin' you would have left me gladly." The vocals could have been mastered better. The track could be used for zoning out more fitting as an interlude.
There's a track that's a trip down memory lane with alternating snippets of the TV show The Office with the puzzling track "my strange addiction." As it comes in the middle of the album, you can tell the mood shifts from cool aloofness to sullen despair as the lyrics get whimsically darker. Bite my glass, set myself on fire / Can't you tell I'm crass, Can't you tell I'm wired / Tell me nothing lasts, like I don't know." It's anyone's guess of what Billie is addicted to but the answer is not drugs because she references similar thoughts on self-medication in music today.
In the self-conscious "Wish You Were Gay," a crush of Billie rejects her and she hopes the reason is he's not attracted to women. An acoustic guitar with her soft-spoken voice cites the ironic meaning behind the lyrics because the boy was actually gay. One of the key tracks that unshelves her cocky exterior, you have to agree it's a fun track to deal with boy problems.
"Ilomilo" is one of my favorites since she's trying a sound of reverberating her voice with an electronic vibe. The track is like a puzzle as she worries about a suicidal friend stating, "Said I couldn't love someone 'cause I might break / if you're gonna die / not by mistake." She explained to Genius that the song is about fear of separation from her close friends where one could be the late rapper XXXTentacion. You could feel the rapid tempo in the beat rising almost like a retro Spider-Man video game in a boss fight stage.
Eilish's vocals get more effervescent with her piano ballad in "listen before you go" focusing on suicide or depression which she has been honest about in her career. It seems as the grimmer her lyrics showcase, the more of her vocal talent is expressed in haunting poetry.
She whispers the mixed emotions of a complex relationship on "I Love You," continually reminding the public that a soft, charismatic voice can send heartfelt messages across a nation. This is her longest song to date produced by her older brother and executive producer FINNEAS who shares similar harmonies with his sister.
"Goodbye" is the outro that includes a verse culminating lyrics of every previous track on her album in reverse order. Billie Eilish is changing the landscape on what the traditional makeup of teen pop stardom should look like. Her nonconformity to the music industry's stereotypical, mainstream image shows resounding growth to her songwriting and instrumentation. This debut should be an enjoyment for the masses as a critical jumpstart to a trailblazing career.


I really hope the authors of great mods like these include references for them in their résumés or CVs. They're that good.
Gopher do you have a tutorial on how to pack BSA files? For some reason mine won't pack right, I usually try to pack up other mods to keep my Skyrim folder clean since I don't use many mods.
i play this game a lot. i really like it but i want to use EMB's.
but every time I try it will not work it keeps crashing.
cane you link the mods that you use and the load order?
with that specs it is either your wrong installation or you reach the 4GB limit, and for load order its best to use BOSS.
Still-- there is obviously something wrong with your load order or your configuration. The memory limit is but one of many, many things that can cause instability or outright crashes.
Check out configuration guidelines on the STEP project, or the Stability guide here: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/32363/?
Friend of mine had the exact same problem when loading up ENBs ages back. Try different .ddl files, older and newer, some might not agree with your GPU, sounds odd but it does happen.
Guessing your game works without ENBs but when you put them on it crashes on load up. Try working your way up through previous .dll files til you find one that doesnt crash it.
Unfortunately I had the same issues that OP mentions. Skyrim favours Nvidia cards more then the AMD ones and I also noticed this on my 3GB AMD Radeon HD7950 OC card. Using the enboost helps greatly for not reaching the limit however it is not enough to keep Skyrim stable especially not if you run a lot of mods. Even when using BOSS, and Tes5edit (for cleaning and creating compatibility patches) it will not be enough to keep Skyrim stable in the long run. Also note that the load order that BOSS recommends is not always the correct one it is likely that some manual intervention is required.
I am not sure if the OP means that his game crashes during startup when ENB is enabled. If this is the case it is likely that something like AMD Afterburner is enabled. Due to the overlay it adds it will conflict with the ENB causing a crash to desktop during startup.
At this time I took a break from Skyrim and am now playing Tales of Two Wastelands (basically running Fallout 3 on the engine of Fallout New Vegas). Works quite well though not all FO3 mods are currently runnable (mods require conversion).
yes that's correct but when i use boost enb there is nothing wrong and it just runs.
I had this issue too. For me, it was software using OSD. If you have any software that uses RivaTuner's OSD (On Screen Display), this will cause a crash, every time. This OSD happens in things like EVGA Precision X, Zotac's Firestorm, any software that allows you to track your graphics card in realtime, etc.
I have EVGA Precision X for instance. For most of these softwares, you can continue to use them, but you need to disable any OSD. Once you've done that, it runs .
Hopefully that's your issue and this helps!
Brilliant presentation as usual, I think I will get all 3 mods. I had the same feeling about that clock as you did at first and if not for your in depth presentation on its customization, especially in respect to Ihud, I would have passed it by.
Question; you mentioned using Frostfall and RND together, but I heard that RND users have allot of issues with Frostfall, can you confirm or dispel that?
I'm using it together (Frostfall + Realistic Needs and Diseases) and I don't have any problem. Or so far I have not encountered any.
What issues do you have in mind, for example?
I have used both for a long time without any issues. In fact the compliment each other nicely.
I must be misinformed then, and will look into it thanks.
Have played around with all 3 mods from this review and like them all so far; I like to check the time of day frequently as well and it is so much nicer to bring up the little arch then to pop out into a menu. The sounds have been quite immersive so far.
Add Wet and Cold to the mix and you have a perfect Immersion Cocktail.
So many great mods I would have never known about if it wasn't for the wonderful Gopher.
You could always check the top 100 files, files of the month, or hot files.
Gopher, your Skyrim Mod Sanctuary is one of the best things about the game. Thanks for your enthusiastic and informative posts!


Cargill Inc., the largest closely held U.S. company, plans to close its beef-processing plant in Wisconsin amid a shrinking domestic supply of cattle.
The Milwaukee, Wisc., factory will close Aug. 1, Cargill said in a statement today. The plant, which employs 600 people, was bought by Cargill in 2001 and can process as many as 1,400 animals a day. Ground-beef production will continue at the site, the Minneapolis-based company said.
"Closing our Milwaukee beef plant is taking place only after we conducted an 18-month-long analysis of the region's cattle supply," John Keating, president of Cargill Beef, said in the statement. "The harsh reality is that the U.S. beef cattle herd is at its lowest level since 1951, with any significant herd expansion being years away."
U.S. cattle inventories as of July 1 fell to the lowest for the date since records began in 1973, the U.S. Department of Agriculture data said last week.
Cargill idled a beef plant in Plainview, Texas, last year. The company said today its six remaining U.S. beef processing plants are unaffected.

Private developers are buying heritage air rights
The next big thing in real estate investing is 'air rights', and the NSW government is capitalising on this trend by approving new abilities to control and develop air space above heritage listed sites. Concerned citizens say new heritage listed purchases in Sydney are yet another example of unethical overdevelopment in the region, and a means for developers to circumvent planning control laws.

The next big thing in real estate investing is 'air rights', and the NSW government is capitalising on this trend by approving new abilities to control and develop air space above heritage listed sites.
Concerned citizens say new heritage listed purchases in Sydney are yet another example of unethical overdevelopment in the region, and a means for developers to circumvent planning control laws.
WHAT ARE 'AIR RIGHTS'?
Air rights, commonly known as Transferable Development Rights, refer to space above a building, which can be developed or transferred for external development.
Such ownership allows developers to bank the space reserved to expand their properties elsewhere.
The legal concept of air rights is based on the Latin phrase, "Cuius est solum, eius est usque ad caelum et ad inferos" (for whoever owns the soil, it is theirs up to Heaven and down to Hell).
In the early 1900s, however, after the invention of airplanes and increase of air traffic, the space above the soil was amended to "within the range of actual occupation."
Typically, legal rights to the physical land described on title and rights to the air above land are left as one, and this leaves potential for the current owner to further develop the land vertically.
Increasingly though, developers are becoming aware of the possibility of purchasing air rights, particularly in areas of existing medium and high density housing and mixed use zones, as a means of significantly expanding the current stock of inner-city developable land.
Likewise, land-owners are awakening to the possibility of selling the development potential created by air rights to developers or adjoining landowners.
In most purchases, developers look to purchase air of that site off the adjoining owner so that they can maintain complete vision through, across and out towards the city.
Citizens are now concerned state governments are allowing the rules to bent to accommodate for private business interests, and that the aftermath threatens heritage listed sites across Australia.
SYDNEY PURCHASES
According to reports, the City of Sydney Council have approved a $20 million sale of "air rights" to the 200-year-old heritage-listed Hyde Park Barracks near NSW Parliament House.
Private developers, including Lendlease (which owns Quay Tower) purchased more than 12,000 square metres of the barracks' heritage space for up to $1,500 per square metre.
The City of Sydney is hoping to sell off another remaining 38,000 square metres of heritage space — which includes Qantas House in Hunter Street — and use the revenue to fund the conservation of the historical sites.
This follows similar trends across the state, from Penrith to Bondi, where the war zones are green spaces, heritage buildings and community facilities.
The terms of conflict are consistent: the government is attempting to override local opposition to overdevelopment in underserviced suburbs.
The NSW government is also selling thin air above the western entrance of the newly opened Wynyard walk in the Sydney CBD.
As development sites in the city become increasingly rare, the airspace above 26-38 Clarence Street is being sold as part of a 99-year lease by the government.
Such a purchase is now allowing developers to 'bank' the space reserved for the heritage sites, where development is forbidden.
Historically, developers stockpile air rights from properties surrounding their public businesses or private homes for a number of reasons, such as to ensure the views around it remained unimpeded.
For example, Queensland homeowners recently purchased their neighbour's air rights to preserve their views of the Brisbane skyline.
Why are developers buying air rights to parts of the city that are forbidden from development?
Why is the NSW government giving away right to control, occupy, or use the vertical space above heritage listed properties? Who are these developers?
A City of Sydney spokesperson said the 'award scheme' was an "incentive for conserving and maintaining heritage buildings" and cited similar initiatives in New York City.
OVERDEVELOPMENT, OVERPOPULATION
Look around Sydney and you'll see battles being waged in nearly every suburb between resident action groups and the state government.
As we examine the trends dominating real estate, urbanization efforts in major cities is hard to ignore – especially in downtown areas, where urbanization leads to more crowded regions.
As development and density reaches capacity in Sydney, purchasing the empty skies above heritage-listed sites is now one of the few avenues for developers to outgrow planning controls.
The Greater Sydney Commission (GSC) — a government agency overseeing planning across the city — has set districts and councils housing-supply targets to keep up with future demands.
NSW Planning Minister Anthony Roberts said Sydney needed to provide 725,000 new homes to meet population growth in the next 20 years.
The GSC has set a target for eight councils in Sydney's western city district, in the south-west and west, to build new homes between 2016 and 2021.
The figures show the majority of development is concentrated in Sydney's west and south-west in councils like Canterbury-Bankstown, Liverpool, Blacktown, Parramatta and The Hills Shire.
Residents are also echoing questions about exemptions for some areas from taking on their fair share, while allowing other communities to be clobbered.
The NSW Premier last year said immigration had been allowed to "balloon out of control" and called for a "return to Howard-era immigration levels in NSW".
She also said "some parts of greater Sydney in particular cannot handle extra development".
It seems the government are going to greater lengths to ensure a balance of development and sustainability in Sydney, even if it ultimately is an unsustainable model for the future of Australia.
What is next? A reversal on restrictions for development of heritage listed sites themselves?
A City of Sydney spokesperson said there were currently no other UNESCO-listed heritage buildings in Sydney whose floor space was being considered for sale.

Million-Dollar Settlements Help Consumers Harmed by For-Profit Colleges
Charlene Crowell, Special to The Informer June 20, 2019

The struggle to eliminate high-cost predatory debt is a daunting one – particularly for Black America. As access to affordable credit, loans and mortgages seem ever elusive across the country, lying in wait are countless predatory lenders eager to fill the personal finance void.
But in recent days, two unrelated developments awarded consumers more than $200 million in victories against high-cost private student loans and restitution for triple-digit interest payday loans. Together, the two developments illustrate how freedom from debt burdens can lifted and erased.
The work of 44 attorneys general in states and the District of Columbia and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) together secured $168 million in private student loan relief for former students of the now-defunct ITT Technical Institute. In a second development, private legal advocates secured $39.7 million in restitution and cancelled high-cost loans that tried to evade state laws.
Readers may recall that following ITT Tech's closure in 2016, the institution promptly filed for bankruptcy, stranding an estimated 35,000 students enrolled at one of 150 campuses in 38 states. Due to its high cost of enrollment, most students financed their studies by using a combination of federal and private student loans. ITT targeted low-income students for its private label loans known as CUSO. These loans came with fees and interest rates as high as 16.25%.
In response to the closure, the Department of Education forgave federal student loans incurred as part of enrollment. But that action still stuck student borrowers with costly private loans that the schools and lenders pushed to finance promised educations that rarely were delivered.
Now through intergovernmental cooperation, over 18,000 former ITT Tech students are freed from high-cost loans that were prone to default by as much as 90%. Lenders must now cease collections, discharge all debts and notify the former students that the debts are cancelled.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, whose share of the national settlement returns $13 million to 1,430 borrower students spoke to the importance of the settlement.
"Students who attended ITT Tech are burdened with unpayable debts they received while pursuing an honest education," Paxton said. "This college and loan program have failed them tremendously."
A similar reaction came from North Carolina where the settlement will bring $4.2 million to 412 former ITT Tech students.
"As attorney general, it's my job to protect students and ensure they can safely invest in their futures," said North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein in a news release issued June 14. "Today's settlement will give these students the debt relief they need for a fresh educational start and a future unhindered by these debts."
By removing the financial burden of these loans, these same consumers will now be able to secure more affordable and lower interest rates as well as higher credit scores. Whenever defaulted loans are added to borrower credit profiles, the resulting credit score is lower and comes with predictable difficult and costly interest for any new credit application.
In the second consumer win, efforts of private legal advocates such as the Virginia Poverty Law Center secured nearly $39.7 million in restitution and wiped out debts from Think Finance. Once a federal judge approves the negotiated settlement, these monies and others paid by other defendants will be distributed to consumers ensnared in loans that came with an average interest rate of 375%.
For consumers, these predatory rates meant that a $500 loan could wind up costing more than $3,000 for unsuspecting borrowers living in California, Florida, North Carolina and Virginia.
The settlement brings an encouraging end to litigation originally filed in 2016 against the Fort Worth, Texas-based Think Finance, Inc.
It should be noted that these nonprofit legal advocates' pursuit of financial justice from Think Finance stands in stark contrast to that of the current leadership at the CFPB — especially when it comes to payday lending and other forms of high-cost loans.
Under CFPB's first director, a lawsuit against Think Finance was originally filed in November 2017, alleging that the firm was deceiving consumers in 17 states into repaying loans they did not legally owe.
With a change of administration and key personnel, an amended complaint was filed under acting CFPB Director Mick Mulvaney that significantly altered the affected dates as well as the amounts of monies involved in the alleged violations.
According to a May 2019 Bloomberg Law article, the dates originally cited a seven-year span of time from 2011-2018, were reduced to only two years, 2013-2015. Additionally, the news outlet reported the amount of fees dropped from at least $325 million to only $40.2 million in interest and fees on combined loans totaling $45.6 million.
"The low penalty assessed to Think Finance follows a recent pattern of the CFPB entering into settlements with companies for alleged abuse of consumers but collecting either no money or low amounts in civil money penalties and little to no consumer restitution," the article stated.
In the May 2019 CFPB settlement, there was no consumer restitution. Instead, Think Finance and each of its six affiliates agreed to pay $1 each to the CFPB to settle claims that consumers paid at least $325 million more than the nearly $50 million in principal amounts borrowed between 2011and 2018.
"These settlements are huge wins for consumers," said Diane Standaert, executive vice president of the Center for Responsible Lending and its director of state policy. "They show the scope and harm of abusive practices by high-cost lenders and predatory for-profit colleges that result in consumers carrying the burden of debt for years.
"The cancellation of these debts is an incredibly important form of redress that should be pursued by other state and federal regulators," Standaert said. "Effective enforcement can and will get people out from under crushing debt. And these actions underscore the need for strong protections at both the state and federal levels to prevent these predatory practices from occurring in the first place."

Posted 5/9/15: Hook Burger is opening up a new location this summer at 2490 Sycamore Drive in Simi Valley, joining other local locations in Westlake Village (opened last October) and Oxnard. Hook Burger serves up a variety of burgers and sandwiches, like the Seared Tuna Sandwich (fresh seared albacore, homemade Asian slaw, wasabi tartar on toasted brioche bun). I stopped by their Westlake Village location and enjoyed the veggie burger as well as some might tasty onion rings. Learn more at hookburger.com.

Thanksgiving weekend almost caught me by surprise this year. There has been so much going on I kept thinking it was still weeks away until suddenly, it wasn't. I'm sharing our menu for this year's dinner this morning, then I'm off to mom and dad's so we can spend the day together and cook for tonight.
vanished! The pin linked to a website called "mylittlecelebration", which apparently doesn't exist anymore.
I've been wanting to share this recipe for so long. Really. It's one of my absolute favorites. I'll post the recipe here first, but if you'd like to know why I love it so much, just scroll on through!

Christopher Kane unveils new collection; Caroline Rush talks Brexit

British designer Christopher Kane unveiled his new spring/summer 2017 at London Fashion Week, Monday (19 SEPT. 2016).
The show was attended by U.S. Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, model Poppy Delevingne and Caroline Rush, Chief Executive of the British Fashion Council.
Rush described the collection - which featured bold prints and metallic shades - as a highlight of London Fashion Week so far.
"It's hard not to reference him as a true innovator. There was a real play on fabrication... there was a reference to his graduate collection - but beautifully made and pulled together. I think everyone has walked out saying that has set the bar," she said.
With fashionistas from all over the world flocking to London for the five day event, Rush also discussed whether the U.K.'s recent vote to leave the European Union has been bad for business.
"There's been a lot of talk about Brexit over the last few days - of course, it's the first fashion week post the vote. But, over the summer months we've seen a bounce in luxury and retail sales and I think there's a slow element of confidence," she said
"It's definitely not something that the industry wanted, but like any business decision or challenge, you look for the opportunities in it and you overcome the challenges when they come."
London Fashion Week draws to a close on Tuesday, 20 September.
