Liverpool keen to do 'something interesting' in transfer market as David Alaba deal eyed
01/12/2021 Soccer
Liverpool: Klopp opens up on if new defender will be signed
Liverpool are eager to do "something interesting" in the summer transfer window when they can take advantage of "good opportunities" says Fabrizio Romano, as the Reds look to try and sign David Alaba on a free from Bayern Munich.
The Premier League champions have made it clear that they are unlikely to sign any new players in the January transfer window.
That's despite the Reds being short of tried-and-trusted quality at centre-back with Virgil Van Dijk and Joe Gomez sidelined by severe knee injuries and Joel Matip constantly battling niggles.
Fabinho has been partnered by Nat Phillips, Rhys Williams and even fellow midfielder Jordan Henderson as Liverpool continue to endure their widespread fitness woes.
But Romano says part of their desire not to sign a new central defender in the winter window is because they would prefer to go for "good opportunities" in the summer.
MUST READ: Liverpool set to let centre-back leave this month despite injury woes
They include Alaba, who will be available without the need for a transfer fee come the end of the campaign.
Alaba's contract at the Allianz Arena expires in June and the versatile 28-year-old, who has spent much of this season at centre-back, is coveted by numerous European clubs.
Romano says Liverpool are among them with the highly-rated Austrian also able to play at left-back or in central midfield having been a major part of the Bayern team that has dominated the Bundesliga over the past eight years and which also won the Champions League last term.
Romano told Give Me Sport: "They [Liverpool] are among the five clubs trying for David Alaba but Real Madrid are leading the race so it's difficult in this moment.
"But Liverpool is trying and this is [what they mean] when they say, 'We want to do something interesting'.
"Good opportunities because, in this market, it is so difficult to do as Chelsea did last summer, it is easier to go for good opportunities."
He added: "Jurgen Klopp said, I think is being honest and it's not usual for a manager but he has been honest, just because they will like a centre back, for sure, they need a centre back, as you say because of many injuries.
"But you know, a lot of players are like worried [thinking] 'I'm joining Liverpool, I go there for two months, I play, then Van Dijk is back, stars are back, like Matip and other players, Joe Gomez, and I'm not playing, I'm on the bench for the next season' and everything.
"For sure, [Ozan] Kabak has been scouted also [Sven] Botman. About Botman, we heard a lot of talks about possible medicals and something but it's absolutely not true at the moment.
ON THIS TOPIC: Liverpool transfers: Done deals, who could sign and leave in January?
"For sure, Liverpool appreciate the player but they have not done anything with the manager, the player the agent or with the club, with Lille in this case."
Liverpool also have to contend with the issue of Barcelona-linked Gini Wijnaldum's uncertain future with the Dutchman out of contract at Anfield in the summer.
Romano explained: "Talking with people around Gini, I've been told that he has been respectful to Liverpool. Before Christmas, he spoke with the club, he received a new bid from Liverpool, like in the first week of December, to try to extend his contract and it was not an amazing bid in Gini's idea.

"He was expecting something different but he said 'Okay, let's take some time. I want to speak with my family. I want to decide in the next week, so give me some time to decide and I won't talk with any other clubs'.
"If he will refuse Liverpool, for sure, Barcelona will be one of the options because as you said, like last summer, they were pushing and pushing to get him.
"Pay attention to the situation of Koeman, because the man who wanted Wijnaldum at Barcelona was Ronald Koeman and (still) is Ronald Koeman.
"He loves Wijnaldum, he had him, obviously, training with the Dutch national team, but if the new president of Barcelona will change the situation, and will go for a different manager next season, I don't know if Barcelona will go for Wijnaldum."

Review, Pricing, and Specs
Highs Look-at-me styling, cheeky interior design, plenty of standard features.
Lows Infuriatingly slow, cramped back seat, rivals offer more cargo space.
Verdict A classic case of style over substance.
Its wild styling, coupe-like body, and bright exterior-color choices will earn the 2020 C-HR plenty of admiring looks, but from behind the wheel, Toyota's smallest SUV is a bore. Its four-cylinder engine provides little power and acceleration is uninspiring at best; the C-HR is a front-wheel-drive-only affair with all-wheel drive appearing nowhere on the options sheet. The underpowered powertrain is at least fuel efficient, earning 37 mpg on our highway fuel-economy test route. Still, other small SUVs are probably better buys, especially those with larger cargo areas and more passenger space. The C-HR presents a good value—Toyota offers a long list of standard features—but so do many of its rivals that are better packages overall.
Toyota's smallest SUV receives a light styling refresh for 2020 in the form of an updated front bumper, grille, and headlamps, as well as new wheel designs. The base LE trim now comes standard with Android Auto capability, LED headlamps, and SiriusXM satellite radio; mid-range XLE models now come with front seatback pockets and sun-visor extensions. An eight-way power-adjustable driver's seat and adaptive headlamp system are now part of the Limited model's standard equipment list. The C-HR can be had in two new exterior colors: Supersonic Red and Hot Lava; a contrasting silver-colored roof is also now an option.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
It's not a huge step up from LE to XLE in terms of price, so we'd suggest you treat yourself. The XLE adds plenty of features that make it worth the increased price, including 18-inch wheels, a proximity key with passive entry, blind-spot monitoring, heated exterior mirrors, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. Toyota offers few options other than accessories, but we'd stop there anyway to keep the C-HR's cost affordable.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
The C-HR's four-cylinder could use a turbocharger or a supercharger—or even a big can of Red Bull—as it's incapable of hustling this crossover up to speed with anything approaching enthusiasm. In our testing, the C-HR was only able to muster an 11.0-second saunter from zero to 60 mph, and it is significantly slower than most of its rivals. When driving normally around town, the lack of power is well disguised thanks to a responsive throttle that launches you eagerly off the line. But put your right foot deep in the accelerator pedal and the engine revs to its peak and stays there, droning on while you wait for the continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) to adjust its ratios in a futile attempt to provide rapid forward motion. Over bumps, the C-HR delivers a ride that is comfortable, but it isn't a standout in this segment. The suspension quickly rebounds after large road imperfections but hit a stretch of patched or broken pavement at speed and you're treated to a cacophony of noise; harsh bumps send reverberations throughout the cabin. The C-HR's steering feels accurate, and its front wheels respond directly to commands. Handling is lively, body roll is well controlled, and the C-HR feels playful from behind the wheel.

Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG
Acceleration isn't the C-HR's main focus; fuel efficiency is where this crossover shines. While EPA estimates show the C-HR is neck and neck with most rivals, it blew away all but the Nissan Kicks (the two mini-utes tied for the same result) in our real-world highway fuel-economy testing: The XLE model we tested smashed past its EPA rating and delivered a phenomenal 37 mpg over the course of 200 miles.
Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
Typical Toyota quality abounds inside the C-HR's cabin. Except for a pair of cheap plastic panels on either side of the center console, the materials throughout the interior seem well chosen and durable. A faux-leather dash with simulated stitching looks upscale, while diamond-patterned plastic on the doors and similarly patterned headliner accents add a bit of fun to the mix. In low-light situations, the trim used on the dashboard of our XLE test car appeared to be standard-issue piano black, but in direct sunlight, a metallic glaze shone through—a nice surprise. Overall, the cabin has a very youthful appeal. When it comes to feature availability, though, the C-HR is anything but up-to-date. Dual-zone automatic climate control is the only basic luxury here, so those wishing for niceties such as power seat adjustments or a sunroof will be left wanting. When it comes to hauling cargo, this segment's leader is the Honda HR-V, which, thanks to its ingenious folding rear seat, offers class-above space. The C-HR's cargo capacity is average, beating only the Mazda CX-3 in maximum carry-on capacity: We fit 14 cases with the rear seats folded.
Infotainment and Connectivity
An 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system stands tall atop the C-HR's sculpted dashboard, and even the base model comes standard with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, SiriusXM satellite radio, and Bluetooth phone and music connectivity. It's a basic system and eschews visual beauty for uncomplicated menus that are easy to use on the go—even those with minimal technological experience should feel comfortable using it.
Safety and Driver-Assistance Features
The Toyota C-HR earned five stars from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and performed well in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's crash tests; it missed out on a Top Safety Pick award from IIHS last year because its headlamps performed poorly in testing. The 2020 model with standard LED headlamps has not been tested. Driver-assistance features are standard across the lineup. Key safety features include:
Standard automated emergency braking
Standard adaptive cruise control
Standard lane-keeping assist
Warranty and Maintenance Coverage
The C-HR's basic warranty coverage is just that—basic. Its two-year complimentary scheduled maintenance is the only aspect that separates it from the competition. High-mileage drivers should consider the Kia Soul, which offers significantly longer warranty periods.
Limited warranty covers 3 years or 36,000 miles
Powertrain warranty covers 5 years or 60,000 miles
Complimentary scheduled maintenance is covered for 2 years or 25,000 miles

The memorial to the victims of the Tiananmen protest in Hong Kong removed
A well-known memorial to the victims of the uprising in Beijing's Tiananmen Square was removed from the University of Hong Kong on Thursday. The university staff announced this.
Danish artist Jens Galchiot's "Pillar of Shame" has been at the university for 24 years. The eight-meter-high statue shows bodies stacked to commemorate the 1989 Beijing Massacre in Tiananmen Square, also known as Tiananmen Square. The protest against the communist government was brutally ended by the military, resulting in the deaths of an estimated thousands.
The university had already decided in October that the monument should be removed. "The decision regarding the ancient statue was made on the basis of external legal advice and an assessment of risks for the benefit of the university," the statement said.

China influence
Hong Kong has been a semi-autonomous region of China since 1997, but the growing influence of the Beijing regime limits democratic freedoms and crushes the pro-democracy movement.
China bans any commemoration of the 1989 massacre.

The Office Party
Office holiday parties are fraught affairs. According to a survey by the website Vault.com, 15% of employees have either been disciplined or fired because of their actions at a holiday party, presumably related to overindulging in some way. Another 18% get romantic at these parties--drinking is up, inhibitions down, and warm holiday feelings encourage hugs that can turn, shall we say, inappropriate.
My favorite hellish office party memory isn't quite so debauched, and after all these years it still makes me laugh. It was circa 1992. My boss had just had a whirlwind romance and married a woman he'd dated for only a few weeks. She was quite the package: statuesque, blonde, and oozing charm, she made us worker bees feel frumpy and inarticulate. She had a background in television, radio, Vegas...she'd done it all. And oh, the stories she told! Long, detailed epics with herself as the centerpiece, not really bragging but not exactly humble either. You were left wondering why these things never happened to you--or indeed if they actually happened at all.
She swept into that year's office party in a tall mink hat, announcing, "Don't blame me! It was dead when I bought it!" We all gathered 'round because she was a startling new addition to our corporate family and we were still trying to determine whether she was the wicked stepmother or benevolent aunt. And she regaled us. She told a story of giving a voiceover audition in her convertible on the 405 freeway, doing the voice of a parrot in stop-and-go traffic. She squawked while young men in nearby cars gawked. (She got the job, of course.)
Then came the main event, a long tale about her days as a helicopter traffic reporter. It was somewhere around the time that a U.S. rescue attempt of the Iran hostages had ended in tragedy, when the helicopter went down in the desert. On the air, she said that if she had been there, it would have ended differently: she would have made sure to get those men out.
Apparently the CIA was listening because she was contacted shortly thereafter and asked if she would be willing to serve her country on a top secret mission. Her expertise was needed in El Salvador to help extricate some CIA agents caught up in civil war there. She described the situation, which of course was extremely dangerous, as well as her arduous decision-making process. Yes, she knew she could make a difference. Yes, her government had recognized her abilities and attempted to recruit a qualified citizen to help out in a troubled region. But she was single mother to a young boy and ultimately she chose to put his needs first. She regretfully declined--not out of fear, since she would have had no hesitation to do whatever was necessary. She simply couldn't take the chance of leaving her son without a mother.
She finished this tale to dead silence and dropped jaws. We were literally speechless. Except for one person: my husband. Not employed by this woman's new husband, he was unencumbered by the decorum that prevented the employees among us from reacting honestly. After a long pause he asked, "Are you sure they didn't say El Segundo?"
For those not from southern California, I should point out that El Segundo is a relatively small area within Los Angeles near LAX best known for its excellent school system. It was, in fact, just down the street from the restaurant where our office party was being held.
The expression on her face at this deflating comment was almost more painful than the story itself had been. She may have been an egomaniac, but she was no fool, and she knew she had been dissed. I felt my heart stop. Involuntarily, I started to back away from the group, trying to escape a) before I burst into laughter and b) before she connected me to my husband. If she didn't know he was with me, maybe I could continue to climb the corporate ladder.
Getting drunk and publicly making out with one of the company's many engineers wouldn't have been half as career-ending as knocking the wind out of the puffed-up sails of the boss' wife. In fact, given the choice between making a drunken fool out of yourself at the office party and just making a fool out of yourself, go for the booze. At least you'll have an excuse the next day when HR comes calling. I know that's what I was prepared to do. But this heroine endeared herself to me forever by sloughing off my husband's comment and moving on to the next story. She never spoke of El Salvador again.
Or El Segundo.

Normally our recipes feature traditional Bulgarian dishes, however, often when living overseas, one gets the odd craving for a taste of home! It's not easy here to find really good Indian food unless you are prepared to drive to Sofia or Varna and eat in an Indian restaurant. Here's our recipe for a cheap, authentic tasting, Chicken Balti. In this recipe I'm using leftover chicken from a roast. One essential ingredient in this dish is a Balti Spice Mix available in Bulgaria from the British Lion Food Store, along with many other spice mixes for other indian dishes (Korma, Rogan Josh, Jalfrezi, etc.).
Beer, the world's most popular and best selling alcoholic drink is often taken for granted. Yet scientific analysis shows that a glass of beer has within it as many aromas and flavours as fine wine. In Bulgaria beer is a drink relegated to a place somewhere below rakiya and wine; yet the average Bulgarian sups a total of 70 litres of beer a year, which is on a par with the average Spaniard or Dutchman. Bulgarian brews are increasing in popularity and are starting to make their mark on the international beer market.
Traminer is a hybrid grape variety that produces an aromatic fruity white wine. It's high natural sugar content means that it lends itself well as both a dessert wine and an accompaniment to many main courses. Bulgaria offers the ideal climate and soil for Traminers and consequently they feature high on many leading white wine producers portfolio. If you are not familiar with this grape variety and are worried that it will be too sweet, give it a try, its fantastic with a curry and is more of a dry wine than overly sweet.
Boutique wines are the latest buzz word on the Bulgarian wine scene and the country is not lacking in contenders thanks to the likes of boutique vintner, Todoroff who maintain that their craft of "Wine and Art" is a key contribution to promoting Bulgarian culture and spirit. Certainly in terms f wine production this house is one to watch; it has a string of awards under its belt and a selection of brands that can hold their won at any tasting.
If you are down in the dumps because of all the hype about the poor state of the global economy, then chomp on a bar of chocolate to bring back the feel-good factor. Eating chocolate has a wealth of proven health benefits; it acts as a brain stimulator, wards off cancer, prevents coughs and benefits the circulation system. Many people say that it is an aphrodisiac, but this is as yet unproven, what is true is that it chocolate increases the brains levels of serotonin and makes you feel better. Bulgarians are great lovers of chocolate; when the Iron Curtain fell across Eastern Europe many entrepreneurs rushed to set up chocolate companies, many of which are still going strong today.
If you are a beer drinker, then next time you visit Bulgaria, down a glass of Bulgaria's oldest beer brand Kamenitza. It is not available anywhere else in the world and appeals to both lager and bitter drinkers alike. It is the official sponsor of the Bulgarian national football team and has its own website dedicated to the club. Its main competitor on the domestic market is Bulgaria's biggest selling beer brand, the Stara Zagora beer Zagorka owned by Dutch brewer Heineken. The brand was recently re-packaged and re-launched in a chic, green bottle, which was more of a unique and trendy perpendicular design. Kamenitza's dark colour gives it more of a masculine appearance; its taste is substantial as well as having a natural and forceful kick.

This show is a special tribute to music and musicians that came out of the South Bay community in the past few decades! Playing will be Static Halo, an indie band featuring Dylan Martinez that emerged from Chula Vista's Southwestern College in the 1990s, Action Andy and the Hi-Tones hailing from National City sharing some hybrid honky-tonk and roots rock, and Neko-Neko, a rock and roll band led by frontman Hector Penalosa, formerly of Chula Vista's seminal punk band, The Zeros. This tribute to the South Bay music scene will be held in the Chula Vista Memorial Bowl, where Hector and other members of The Zeros once jammed back in their high school days. This will be a donation-based all-ages ticket for the entire community. All proceeds will cover event costs and a donation to the Chula Vista Boys and Girls Club, a place that fostered Hector's love of music while he was growing up and a place that continues to benefit South Bay youth in the arts, leadership, and recreation.

Woman Becomes First British Person To Receive Stem Cell Treatment For Most Common Form Of Blindness
A woman has become the first person in the UK to receive treatment using stem cells for age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the most common form of blindness.
The procedure was carried out by surgeons at Moorfields eye hospital in London, following research by scientists at University College London. A further nine patients will be treated over the next year and a half. A spokesperson for the Royal National Institute for the Blind described the news as a "great step forward" for blind people.
The patient suffers from so-called "wet" macular degeneration, in which blood vessels grow at the back of the retina, damaging the cells. This is the less common but more serious form of the disease, which causes a sudden loss of central vision.
The team behind the procedure are hopeful that it will also work for "dry" macular degeneration, which is caused by a buildup of chemical deposits. That form of the disease is far more common, but progresses more slowly.
In total more than 600,000 people in Britain have some form of the disease.
The new technique involves growing eye cells, known as retinal pigment epithelium cells, from stem cells taken from human embryos. These cells have the potential to be grown into any kind of cell in the human body. The eye cells are then implanted into the retina of the patient.
The outcome of the first surgery will not be known until December, but Professor Pete Coffey, the scientist leading the research, told BuzzFeed News that he hopes the procedure will "stop people going blind". "{In wet AMD,] there's a window of about six weeks that's crucial. If we can get the new cells in in that period, then we should be able to stop people going blind." In the slower dry AMD, he says, it should be possible to intervene at an early stage to stop people losing their vision.
He previously told the Guardian that he hoped it would soon be a routine operation: "We're trying to make it as straightforward as a cataract operation. It will probably take 45 minutes to an hour. We could treat a substantial number of those patients."
The research has been supported by the London Project to Cure Blindness, a joint project between Moorfields, the National Institute of Health Research (NIHR), and UCL's ophthalmology institute. Coffey is one of the founders of the project.
Coffey told BuzzFeed News that the project is working with Pfizer and the NHS to make the treatment widely available as soon as possible. "If I could do it in two and a half years, I'd be over the moon," he said. "[It's within the realms of possibility,] if all the stars line up."
Some pro-life and religious groups consider the use of embryonic stem cells controversial because they involve the destruction of an embryo. Coffey says that his group is being supported by the UK Medical Research Council to run another study, "possibly in two years' time", into using adult stem cells, or "induced pluripotent stem cells" (IPS). "If that works, we won't have to use embryonic ones," he says, which would avoid the ethical debate. However, "we've got the embryonic stem cell line on the shelf, so stick with it".
Clare Eaglen, an RNIB spokesperson, said in a statement: "It is early days yet but this development does show that stem cells can be successfully transplanted into the eye, which is a great step forward."

'Saturday Night Live' Preview: Jon Hamm and Michael … Bubble?
Posted January 27th, 2010 by Kim
Mad Men star Jon Hamm returns this weekend (Saturday, 11:30PM ET, NBC) for his second stint as Saturday Night Live host, and here's the first promo, in which Hamm and cast member Fred Armisen discuss the correct pronunciation of musical guest Michael Bublé's name:

'Saturday Night Live' Christmas Episode 2009: Mark Wahlberg Talks to Christmas Animals
Posted December 20th, 2009 by Kim
Best line from last night's Mark Wahlberg Talks to Christmas Animals skit on the last new SNL of the year (and the decade): "Hey partridge, how's it hanging? Where's your pear tree? Oh, there it is. So, you were in that song, 'The 12 Days of Christmas.' I was in The Happening … did you see that movie?" Aside from his digital videos, his Mark Wahlberg impersonation is Andy Samberg's best Saturday Night Live bit:
Host James Franco's monologue was also funny – he poked fun at his college career and his new General Hospital gig – but the second best holiday-themed skit of the night came late in the episode: Vincent Price's 1954 Christmas Special. Bill Hader continues to prove himself to be one of the most talented, versatile SNL stars ever, and it was fun to see Franco, who starred in TNT's 2001 biopic of James Dean, reprise the role:
By the way, NBC has announced the host/musical guest line-up for the first two new episodes of 2010: On January 9, Charles Barkley returns as host for the second time, with musical guest Alicia Keys, and on Jan. 16, Ugly Betty star America Ferrera hosts for the first time, with musical guest Green Day. Can't wait to see if Kenan Thompson busts out his Barkley impersonation in a Barkley vs. Barkley showdown …

UPDATE: 'MacGruber' (and 'MacGyver'): Coming Soon to a Theater Near You
Posted July 8th, 2009 by Kim
UPDATE 7/8: From Variety.com this morning, the MacGruber will flick will begin filming in August. Other new details: Ryan Phillippe and Val Kilmer are in talks to join the cast; MacGruber star Will Forte will be returning to Saturday Night Live in the fall; and Jorma Taccone, an SNL writer who also starred as Chaka in this summer's Land of the Lost movie, will direct MacGruber.
Meanwhile, THR.com has plot details for the movie, which will revolve around MacGruber, now living as a monk, being called out of retirement to help fight Cunth (Kilmer), the big baddie who's not only threatening the United States with a nuclear warhead, but who also killed MacGruber's bride. Phillippe would play Piper, an Army officer who (reluctantly) pairs up with MacGruber.
From 6/2: Happy happy joy joy! Straight from the MacGruber's mouth comes word of a big-screen movie version of our favorite MacGyver-spoofin' bomb diffuser.
MacGruber himself, a.k.a. Saturday Night Live star Will Forte, confirmed on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon Monday night that he has just finished co-writing a script that will find he and SNL co-star Kristen Wiig taking MacGruber and his pal Vicki into a full-length movie. Forte didn't give many details, but he said fans may be surprised by some aspects of the movie.
Bring it on, I say, especially if it includes an appearance by the real MacGyver, Richard Dean Anderson (a fellow Ohio University alum – go Bobcats!), who, it was revealed, is MacGruber's dad. Like father's mullet, like son's mullet.
Oh, and after you check out the clip of Forte on Late Night, take a visit to Hulu, where you'll find the complete collection of MacGruber skit videos (including MacGruber's foray into product placement with "Pepsuber"), all in one handy spot.
And PS: Yes, there is a big-screen MacGyver movie in development, too. Any thoughts about who should play the new-school Angus MacGyver? I nominate Chuck star Zachary Levi. Though he'd be a perfect Fletch, he'd be equally as good as MacGyver, doncha think?

Channel Surfing – May 15
Posted May 15th, 2009 by Kim
– Did Izzie and George really die in the Grey's Anatomy season finale? Meh. I find it more interesting that series creator Shonda Rhimes is living in denial about how ridiculous much of the show has become, including this season's "ghost sex."
– Time magazine TV critic James Poniewozik makes an excellent point about how the best comedy on TV is not necessarily always the funniest comedy on TV, using last night's Alan Alda gem on 30 Rock as a jumping off point. Alda's quip that referred to the classic M*A*S*H series finale is, hands down, the best, most clever quote of the whole TV season.
– Saturday Night Live airs its 34th season finale – with host Will Ferrell and musical guest Green Day – this weekend, while Fox sketch comedy counterpart MadTV airs its series finale.
– More from SNL: Sunday night's SNL: Just Shorts special (9PM ET, NBC), a round-up of the show's most memorable short films, including, of course, "Dick in a Box," and one of my early favorites, the classic synchronized swimming clip with Martin Short and Harry Shearer.
– And another series finale: tonight's Prison Break send-off (8PM ET, Fox).
– It makes me love Jonah Hill even more that he riffed on gruesome twosome Heidi and Spencer in a new Harper's Bazaar interview and photo spread.
– "I want to go to there" is not the only 30 Rock catchphrase that originated with Tina Fey's daughter Alice, apparently.
– Thanks, Neal McDonough, for spoiling the Desperate Housewives season finale. Oh, okay, the fate of his Dave character wasn't really a surprise, though he did also confirm in his appearance on The View Thursday that the rumor of a DH spin-off with Mrs. McCluskey (Kathryn Joosten) is true.
– Farrah Fawcett's documentary on her battle with cancer, Farrah's Story, is set to air tonight on NBC (9PM ET), but as the Charlie's Angels star is reportedly on her deathbed, a producer and her on-again, off-again love Ryan O'Neal are fighting over the video.
– USA Today has a good rundown of where the networks stand as they head into Upfront Week next week. Among the shows likely to be on the air next season: The Melrose Place remake, an NCIS spin-off and the return of Scrubs, while the fates of My Name Is Earl, Chuck, Medium, The Unit, Cold Case and Without a Trace are still up in the air.
– And somehow, I doubt Jon Stewart is really worried about Jim Cramer, through Cramer seems to suggest in a new Time magazine interview that he should be.

TV List o' the Day: The Duff Goldman Action Figure (and 9 Other Great TV Desk Toys)
I've recently become bored with my WALL-E action figure, my Dwight Schrute bobblehead and my talking Napoleon Dynamite pen. In other words, I am in need of some new desk toys, which sent me on a hunt for a few craptacular TV-themed tchotchkes to help bring the fun to my workspace and, most importantly, give me the oh-so-important procrastination tools that every person who works at a desk every day needs.
So, my top 10 TV desk toy finds …
The Chef Duff Minimate
A 2-inch representation of Ace of Cakes master baker Duff Goldman, with 10 accessories, including two mini cakes, a spatula, a guitar and a chainsaw (hey, it's Duff).
Cost: A mere $8. (Hours of procrastination it will provide: Priceless).
30 Rock Kenneth the Page Talking Bobblehead
Says phrases like "Frankly, LaDonica, you have not been real helpful," "It's gonna get raw in here like sushi, so haters to the left" and "I just love television so much." Amen, Ken.
SNL More Cowbell Kit
"Guess what?! I've got a fever, and the only prescription … is more cowbell!"
Psych Pineapple Stress Toy
Because squeezing a real pineapple could be considerably more painful.
Lost Dharma Rubik's Cube
Easier to solve than the show's intricate plotlines!
Dayman Heat Sensitive Mug
Add hot water, and The Nightman appears. Brilliant! Don't just want this It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia mug. I need to own this.
Jack Bauer 12-inch Action Figure
A foot-tall Jack Bauer. He'll make sure all the other desk toys toe the line.
Talking Hurley Reyes Action Figure
American Idol Microphone Pops
They light up, they play music, they have a lollipop and fruit-flavored gum inside and are shaped like microphones. It's the toy that has it all. Good favors for an AI finale party, too.
Jack Bauer iPod Shuffle
I'd like one in pink. What … are you suggesting a real man like Jack Bauer would be uncomfortable spinning tunes from a pink device? Say that to his face, punk.

I've tried with the shotgraph component, but we couldn't get the specified sharpness, of course we get 1200 dpi. Kindly refer http://www.shotgraph.com.

Q: How to view changes on branch that are not on master yet? UPD

*

*create repository (ForkPoint)

*create branch

*do some commit to branch

*switch back to master

*do same of some changes on the master, as on the branch
(for example on branch you add line 'a' and remove 'b', and edit 'c'.
on master do same: add line 'a', remove 'b' but edit 'd')

*do some commit on master
So, now, on master, we have:
$ git diff ForkPoint..master:HEAD
@@@patch@@@
new line 'a'
removed line 'b'
edited line 'd'

On branch, we have:
$ git diff ForkPoint..branch:HEAD
@@@patch@@@
new line 'a'
removed line 'b'
edited line 'c'

Now I want to see all changes on branch except those that are in master already.
$ git checkout master; git diff branch:HEAD
@@@patch@@@
edited line 'd'
edited line 'c'

However, I do not want to see other changes on master from ForkPoint..master:HEAD
EXPECTED
@@@patch@@@
edited line 'c'

I need something like
git cherry -v branch:HEAD

but this check whole commits. I need lines.

A: Git may not provide you with an option to accomplish this, but you may accomplish this with:
git diff master..mybranch | grep -v "^-[^-]"

this will remove all lines starting with a single "-", that is, any line that exist i master but not in mybranch.
You may need to adopt this depending on your environment.

First hour: Fake News Rumble with Trump supporter Rolf Lindgren and special guest Jim Fetzer!
What is "fake news"? Who is responsible for most of the lies that pass for news stories? Is Trump the solution, or part of the problem? Is the MSM the solution, or just another part of the problem?
Our main topic in this hour is today's big story "Dying CIA agent confesses to demolition of WTC-7" FAKE NEWS. The hoax by Jay Greenberg mixed true information about the demolition of WTC-7 with lies about a nonexistent dying CIA agent supposedly confessing. Its effect (and purpose) is to muddy the waters and discredit the truth movement. At least that's my opinion. But Jim Fetzer disagrees – and explains why. So who's right? Listen and make up your own mind.
The Guinness Book of Records has recorded the looting of the Reichsbank in Berlin following Germany's collapse in April and May of 1945, as the greatest robbery in history. However, this is not the whole truth. It is a half-truth – at best – that has been perpetuated for over 50 years.
I, Ron Stockdale, am one of the three men referred to in the 1984 edition of The Guinness Book of Records, and I would like to weigh in on this issue. There is some misinformation here that needs to be corrected for history's sake. First of all, the so-called greatest robbery in history, was really the greatest swindle in history: There was a master plan in place to avoid paying the rightful owners of the bonds.

Lol funny comment. Ah yes, i wonder if Kevin can talk at half the speed because of my brain impediment?! It's a pitty we don't have a 'play at half speed' button on our screens. Perhaps Kevin could tone down the old intelligence thing too to make it a bit fairer and more balanced with the old trump fan?! And the father of modern science bringing freedom, damn that Kevin infecting us with this Guenonian dissidence despair by nagging on about that 'Truth' thing all the time!
Kevin, I agree totally with Jim's comments to you about the fake story, since all the facts were true except for the dying man who may not have been real. It wasn't so obvious to me that he wasn't real, because people DO die and dying people DO sometimes make confessions. I knew nothing about the publication or author or his previous story about Diana, and would have appreciated your making those points as clearly as possible, instead of implying there was no truth to the article at all, which is what it sounded like you were doing.
And as long as I'm being critical here, I really think you should listen better to what Rolf has to say instead of interrupting him and talking so much faster than him. More give and take, and calmer back and forth makes for a better interview – a less confrontational disagreement makes much more sense to listeners in general, imo.

Apple Focus on Build Autonomous Car System - Tim Cook. After years toiling away in secret on its car project, Apple Inc chief executive officer Tim Cook has for the first time laid out exactly what the company is up to in the automotive market: It's concentrating on self-driving technology.
The prospect of self-driving cars has seen a slew of technology companies push into the auto industry, which is estimated to be worth US$6.7tril (RM28.55tril) by 2030, according to McKinsey & Co. Alphabet Inc's Waymo unit has signed partnerships with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV and Lyft Inc to develop the technology. And carmakers from BMW AG to General Motors Co have opened sizable Silicon Valley offices and dedicated hundreds of millions of dollars to acquire autonomous vehicle startups.
Cook was also bullish about the prospects for electric vehicles, a market which last week helped Tesla Inc become the world's fourth-biggest carmaker by market capitalisation, even as it ranks well outside the top 10 by unit sales.
Apple invested US$1bil (RM4.25bil) last year in Didi Chuxing, the biggest Chinese ride-hailing service. The announcement came soon after Mansfield took over Project Titan and set about cutting hundreds of engineers. Whereas Apple had initially been building its own car, Mansfield scrapped those plans in favour of building an autonomous driving system. The company will make a decision on whether to proceed with the push later this year, the people said at the time.


Three different backrest heights, slim and distinctive line with precise stitching, and five-star base made of polyamide (aluminium powder-coated in black or silver, or polished aluminium) – all this stands for an elegant chair on a cantilever frame.
Since GLIDE-TEC+ keeps you moving and ensures comfortable working in each sitting position at the same time, which is due to the fact that your hands keep constant contact with the writing surface or keyboard.
Since your back needs movement, also when you sit down. With the unique lordosis & kyphosis patented GLIDE-TEC+ mechanism, the chair enables the ergonomically desirable change between the hollow and round back and supports your back in every sitting position.
Since with GLIDE-TEC+ you stay fit, also at the end of a long working day. Our sitting technology prevents you from active stress in each sitting position – the neck is not overstretched, the head stays fresh.
Swivel chairs – the covers of the mechanism are made of textured heavy metal free black polypropylene.
Side chairs – the covers of the mechanism are made of textured heavy metal free black polysol.

The notifications tab on the Facebook app will now showcase information tailored to individual users.
"We've heard feedback that people wanted to add important information that they can easily see, all in one place," wrote product manager Keith Peiris on the official Facebook blog. "Along with your notifications, you can see and customize timely info." This update to mobile notifications will start rolling out to U.S. users on both iOS and Android starting today, according to Facebook.
Instead of a simple list, mobile notifications are now organized as "cards." You can tailor or add more cards based on your Facebook activity and location. Previously, Facebook's mobile notifications tab consisted of an ongoing list of updates in chronological order.
You might also get notifications based on the Pages you've liked. For example, if you like your favorite sports team or TV show on Facebook, you could see notifications on game scores or reminders that your show is on.
In addition, you can customize your mobile notifications and make them more useful if you enable your Location History on the Facebook app. Once the app knows your location, you will be able to see notifications pertaining to local events and news, weather updates and severe weather alerts, as well as movies playing near you or nearby restaurants.
The impact on you: The redesigned mobile notifications tab certainly looks like it will come in handy, especially if you use Facebook to keep track of your events. In a similar way, you might start keeping track of your favorite sports teams and TV shows.
However, as with other Facebook features, there's a big trade-off between usefulness and privacy. To make the most out of Facebook's new notifications tab, it seems you'll have to enable location services, giving Facebook information as to your whereabouts. That might make some users hesitant to try the feature, even if it means not getting these new personalized, location-based notifications.


Opening stanza of Ode to a Nightingale: 4 lines in which the monotonous, clogging and half-rhyming combinations of 'm' and 'n' nasal sounds - 'numbness', 'sense', 'hemlock', 'drunk', 'emptied', 'sunk' (along with the weighting monosyllabic words and slow, laboured movement of the rhythm) - create an exact musical equivalent of the poet's drugged, dull mood. Two sharp 'a' sounds in 'aches' and 'pains' express the momentary stabs of conscious pain in his drugged numbness. From this we emerge into a passage of marked melodic contrast, where the clear, ringing and sometimes richly intense sounds of the words perfectly correspond with the contrasting happiness of the nightingale. In 'numberless' and summer' we catch a reminiscence of the sound pattern of the opening lines, and 'numberless' in particular brings us back to 'numbness' in the opening line. This slight repetition is good because it holds the two contrasting parts of the stanza in aural unity.
Hyperion: "Instead of thrones, hard flint they sat upon Couches of rugged stone, and slaty ridge Stubborn'd with iron."
The Eve of Saint Agnes A casement high and triple-arch'd there was, All garlanded with carven imag'ries Of fruits, and flowers, and bunches of knot-grass, And diamonded with panes of quaint device Innumerable of stains and splendid dyes, As are the tiger-moth's deep-damask'd wings; And in the midst, 'mong thoudand heraldries, And twilight saints, and dim emblazonings, A shielded scutcheon blush'd with blood of kings and queens.
The opening stanza of To Autumn with its 's', 'm',"l" alliterations has no interwoven and recurring vowel sound. The music here lies in a constant shift of melodic effect and in complete organisation of small, often contrasting echoes of sound: 'o' vowel in three opening lines: 'mellow', 'Close', 'load'- then this sound disappears. There are marked momentary alliterations "mists and mellow", "fill all:Fruit". There are small chimes of sound: 'apples' and 'thatch' 'moss'd' and 'cottage', 'ripeness' with 'vines', 'budding' with 'plump'. There is internal half-rhyme: 'sells' 'swell' . The double 'm' sound in the last line suggests the hum of bees and the clogged, drowsy movement in sticky sweetness.
the chiming, recurring of consonantal sounds: To Autumn: "While barred clouds bloom the soft-dying day".
the 'l' and 'b' sounds in To Autumn: "And full-grown lambs loud bleat from hilly bourn"
Hyperion: "healthy breath of morn" "sat grey-haired Saturn" "forest on forest" "like cloud on cloud" "Tall oaks branch-charmed by the earnest stars"
Ode on Melancholy: "And feed deep, deep upon her peerless eyes"
Ode on a Grecian Urn: "Thou still unravish'd bride of quietness Thou foster-child of silence and slow tine." Lamia: " A pillar'd porch, with lofty portal door" The Eve of Saint Agnes: "In the retired quiet of the night"
The Eve of Saint Agnes: "These delicates he heap'd with glowing hand On golden dishes and in baskets bright Of wreathed silver: sumptuous they stand In the retired quiet of the night, Filling the chilly room with perfume light." Here the monotone of line 4 checks what might have become an excess of melodic sweetness and richness.
"Nor let the Beetle nor the death moth be Your mournful Psyche, nor the downy owl A partner in your sorrow's mysteries; For shade to shade will come too drowsily, And drown the wakeful anguish of the soul."
"As though a rose should shut, and be a bud again." (The Eve of Saint Agnes) Here Keats found himself faced with two choices of melodic effect: either the full internal rhyme of 'rose' and 'close' or the assonance of 'shut' with 'bud' and with 'sunshine' of the previous line.
Like cloud on cloud. No STIR of AIR was THERE."


If you don't want self-service, just let us serve you.
Smart Bavarian dress, everything under control and always there for you!
If you don't want self-service, just let us serve you. Our friendly staff are just as much a part of the Augustiner Keller as its beer and cosy atmosphere. You'll be able to tell who the staff are with just one look: they are the people in smart Bavarian dress, with everything under control and are always there for you. Simply order what your heart desires. And sit back and enjoy Bavarian hospitability in the open air.
In the service area, you'll also find the famous Stammtische (regulars' tables). We now have 120 of these. Several regular groups have met here for decades. And each of them has their own individually designed tabletop. The group members look after these tabletops themselves and store them during the winter months. The Stammtische often have unique elements such as lightning conductors or a group cash box.
The Munich author Siegfried (Sigi) Sommer was usually one of the first regular beer garden customers of the year. You would often see him here in February or March. To prevent his feet getting cold, he used a charcoal heater which he placed under the table. He used to store the charcoal for it behind the chicken stall.

Anyway. I haven't done much interesting at all… just revision, and Fusion last night. Fusion last night was pretty cool actually, I really enjoyed it! It was about prayer, and I found it quite helpful. It's good just to talk about stuff with other people and then pray for it!

Q: Passing a json-string command arg in a YAML file I'm trying to run a command which changes kubernetes cronjob image value as described here.
But instead of typing this command to cmd i'm trying to run it via Container Registry's build trigger.
I tried ' and \ as escape chars.
  steps:
     - name: 'gcr.io/cloud-builders/kubectl'
      args: [
      "patch",
       "cronjob",
       "cron-history-orders",

      "-p=[{'"op'":'"replace'",'"path'":'"/spec/jobTemplate/spec/template/spec/containers/0/image'",'"value'":'"python:3.5'"}]"
       ]
      env:  ['CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_ZONE=europe-west3-c','CLOUDSDK_CONTAINER_CLUSTER=xxx-prod']

or when I try
   "-p='[{\"op\":\"replace\", \"path\": \"/spec/jobTemplate/spec/template/spec/containers/0/image\", \"value\":\"python:3.5\"}]'"

or
  "-p='[{'op':'replace','path':'/spec/jobTemplate/spec/template/spec/containers/0/image','value':'python:3.5'}]'"

I get error loading template: json: cannot unmarshal object into Go value of type []json.RawMessage

A: As you no doubt realize, the challenge here is that you are dealing with layers of escaping -- your yaml contains json that will be passed on a command line.
I was able to pass this command through with this yaml:

  args: [ "patch", "cronjob", "cron-history-orders", "--type=json", "-p='[{\"op\":\"replace\", \"path\": \"/spec/jobTemplate/spec/template/spec/containers/0/image\", \"value\":\"python:3.5\"}]'" ]

Q: facedetect.cpp:1:10: fatal error: 'opencv2/objdetect.hpp' file not found I just installed opencv3 on my OSX using cmake ->make->make install . Then I went to the samples/cpp folder and run this command
 g++ -ggdb `pkg-config --cflags --libs opencv3` facedetect.cpp -o /tmp/test && /tmp/test

I am getting this error
facedetect.cpp:1:10: fatal error: 'opencv2/objdetect.hpp' file not found
#include "opencv2/objdetect.hpp"

A: Cmake didn't work for me. I found it easier to simply install it using the whl file. I got it from here http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/
1) Download the whl file you need (search the page for "opencv")
2) Open a terminal in the directory of the downloaded file.
3) pip install the file you downloaded
example: pip install "path/to/file/opencv_python-3.1.0-cp35-cp35m-win32.whl"
I did this and it worked for me. None of the files were missing. I don't own a mac(yet) and I'm not sure if you'll run into any problems or not, but I hope this helps.

Rashid Khan Steps Down As Captain Of Afghanistan!
Dev Tyagi
He's the world's foremost exponent of leg-spin, at least, in this day an age of the game. Perhaps, Dane van Niekerk and Sune Luus can spin the ball more or maybe, Rangana Herath in his days had more authority over the batsmen much like Warne's foxiness, but there's no denying the fact that Rashid Khan has lorded over the game in the recent times.
He's a clever bowler, very miserly and hard to score off. Bowls with a bit more speed you'd think especially when considering the likes of say a Yuzvendra Chahal. But that being said, Rashid Khan is cricket's enigma of the East, a superstar of a country ever so desperate for heroes. And not to forget, the very country that today, has fallen into the hands of the dreaded Taliban.
But as with every story of success where there's ecstasy, there's also that thing called agony.
And where Afghanistan cricket stands at the moment, then it's more strange than sad to know that Rashid Khan is no longer its captain.
Well, not in the least of the team that's to compete in the T20I world cup in the UAE.
For the longest time, Afghanistan have tried to rise to prominence and make their own space in the game that fuels passionate fans back home. It's something they've gone on to achieve, with emphatic success in the shortest form, going on to knock the socks off opponents even like the West Indies, considered kings of T20Is.
But how will that site be that has a Rashid Khan, albeit no longer in the captain's role.
To his defence, the famous leg-spinner with 269 international wickets says the team was decided without his consent or approval or involvement of any sort.
Why did the Afghan cricket board do such a thing? Why would you not take into consideration the views and assessments of a man you've yourself elected as the captain of the side?
For someone who made his international debut just days after his seventeenth birthday (vs Zimbabwe, 2015), Rashid Khan has done more than just give half a decade of his life to Afghanistan.
He's inspired countless many to pick up the tricks of the game and opt for the ball in a batsman-favouring game.
That's really not the kind of treatment you expect a board to be extending to its first-rate cricketer, one regarded just as much as he's feared by batsmen around.
Though that said, here's what Rashid Khan said over the matter of the team's selection without his involvement in an sort:
Early in the day, the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) named Rashid as the captain while veteran wicket-keeper Mohammad Shahzad was also included in the 15-member squad for the showpiece event, starting next month. "As the captain and responsible person for the nation I reserve the right to be part of the selection of the team," the 22-year-old spinner said in a post shared on his twitter handle.
🙏🇦🇫 pic.twitter.com/zd9qz8Jiu0
— Rashid Khan (@rashidkhan_19) September 9, 2021
"The selection committee and ACB has not obtained my consent for the team which has been announced by ACB media. I am taking the decision of stepping down from the role as the captain of Afghanistan T20 side effective immediately. It's always my proud playing for Afghanistan."
It must be said that Afghanistan Cricket Board should really think about what has happened and give it a real think as to how they can get someone like the ace spinner or Rashid Khan himself back as the team's leader.

Ecobotanic was born in 1995 from an ides of the Polverini Group, a line of hair cosmetics that was considered 60/70% natural. During a meeting with the affiliated hairdressers, the Polverini Group wondered how to improve their product Line becoming environment friendly.
Hence Ecobotanic was created, a hair products line made from vegetable oils.
Through extensive studies and our experience in the field, we identified nine different scalp problems: oily scalp, dandruff scalp, hair loss etc.
So it was necessary to find the right hair treatments with products designed specifically for each problem. This is how we created the Essential Blends, a mix of essential oils suitable for different skin problems to be added to the Basic detergent Oil.
Since 2013 Ecobotanic is undergoing a considerable change and has totally evolved.
And now in 2015 BioBotanic is born, a line of organic hair products, 100% natural, highly environment-friendly.
After years of research and studies, we finally started to collaborate with a group of technicians who wanted to share with us this initiative, contributing to the birth of this innovative line, with zero environmental impact and with valuable benefits for the hair.
