The Top 15 Moments That American Athletes Were UFC Winners
The United States has produced a lot of great athletes in many sports, from Serena Williams in tennis to Michael Phelps in swimming. But there are some top tier American athletes that most people don't know about and they come from the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).
The UFC takes wrestling, boxing, and mixed martial arts and makes an intense mash-up of it all. And the athletes that excel have to be at the top of their game. The US has some of the most notable fighters, including those who have rallied to achieve phenomenal wins. The top 15 are up next.

15. Brock Lesnar vs Randy Coutoure – UFC 91
First on our list is Brock Lesnar, who you probably know for his World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) fame. Upon retiring from WWE, he entered the UFC, in which he became a Heavyweight champion in 2008 after he defeated Randy Couture by TKO.

The match was one of the most anticipated because Lesnar only debuted two months prior with a then-record of 3-2. It was the only match to reach the second round. Lesnar won the scorecard in the first round, then knocked out Couture in the next.
This win was momentous because Couture is considered one of the most decorated fighters in the UFC. He has been active in the UFC since 2007.
14. Matt Serra vs Georges St. Pierre – UFC 69
Next is Matt Serra, who has a record of 11-7-0, 202 KO/TKO, and 5-0 submissions. He became the Welterweight champion in 2006 but lost the title to Georges St. Pierre during their second Title match.

During the match, Serra was considered the underdog, so fans are betting on St. Pierre to win. When Serra knocked out the favored fighter in the first round, a lot of UFC watchers came out disappointed.
Aside from his activity in the UFC, he also served as a coach in The Ultimate Fighter season 6 along with Matt Hughes. He currently hosts the official UFC podcast called UFC Unfiltered. Serra entered the UFC Hall of Fame in 2018 in the pioneer wing as one of the most notable UFC Champions.
13. Tyron Woodley vs Robbie Lawler – UFC 201
Tyron "The Chosen One" Woodley is one of the most notable American fighters with his record of 19 wins, six losses, and one draw. He snagged the title from Robbie Lawler and defended four times.

This remarkable win earned Woodley the Performance of the Night award because of how fast he won the fight by knockout within the first half of the round.
His latest fight against Colby Covington resulted in a TKO against him because of a rib injury. However, he is still active in the UFC and is set to fight Vicente Luque this year.
12. Benson Henderson vs Frankie Edgar – UFC 144
With a 28-10-0 record, Benson Henderson enters this list in the twelfth spot. Also known as "Smooth," Henderson won the Lightweight Champion title in 2012 by unanimous decision in a match against Frankie Edgar.
Henderson and Edgar's fight was noted by the judges, giving both of them the Fight of the Night honors. The two are thought to be evenly matched, but Henderson emerged victorious as he landed more blows and did more damage.
Henderson was able to defend his title three times until he lost to Gilbert Melendez in 2013. Nevertheless, he is regarded as one of the fighters who were able to defend the title the most, tying with BJ Pen.
11. Holly Holm vs Ronda Rousey – UFC 193
In the Women's division, we have Holly Holm who became the Bantamweight champion in 2015 in a fight against Rousey.
Image Source: Sports Casting
This is one of the most awaited fights in UFC history as Rousey was undefeated for all 12 bouts including six title defenses. Rousey was even able to predict Holm's strategy on TV, giving Holm a disadvantage.
In a notable turn of events, Holm was able to land a round head kick on Rousey, leaving her flat on the mat.
10. Ronda Rousey vs Cat Zingano – UFC 184
Next on the list is Ronda Rousey, who has a W-L-D record of 12-2-0. She first got a hold of the Bantamweight title in 2012 in a bout against Miesha Tate. She went on to set an impressive record of the number of times defending a title.

Known for her armbars, Rousey demonstrated her finisher of choice once again after knocking out Alexis Davis in 16 seconds. For UFC 184, she knocked out Zingano with an armbar in 14 seconds.
Rousey, AKA Rowdy, defended the title seven times until she lost to Holly Holm. Regardless, her record makes her an American legend in the UFC and not just as a top female UFC fighter but rather as a fighter as a whole.
9. Matt Hughes vs B.J. Penn – UFC 63
Matt "Switch" Hughes is a two-time Welterweight champion. He first got the title in 2001 in a match against Carlos Newton.
Image Source: Deadspin
Then, he once again got the belt in 2004 in a match against Georges St. Pierre. During this reign, he once again faced B.J. Penn whom he beat via TKO.
The first two rounds were in favor of Penn but as the third round was going and Penn started to get exhausted, Hughes started scoring. On the last few rounds, Hughes threw down unanswered punches to Penn and was pulled off by the ref. His victory was recognized as one of the most dominant in the history of UFC champion promotion.
8. Demetrious Johnson vs Joseph Benavidez – UFC 152
Next on the list is Demetrious Johnson, who got the belt in about against Joseph Benavidez. This is a remarkable event in UFC history as it is the first time it had a flyweight champion.
Image Source: Ring TV
His impressive record consists of 30 wins, 3 losses, and one draw. Plus, he defended the belt a whopping 11 times.
He lost to Henry Cejudo in 2018 by a split decision. Regardless, he continued to fight, winning his latest match against Danny Kingad.
7. Tim Sylvia vs Andrei Arlovski – UFC 59
Tim "The Maine-iac" Sylvia holds a record of 21-10-0 with 20-3 KO/TKO. Sylvia and Arlovski have a bit of history. In a bid to regain the title, Sylvia challenged Arlovski in UFC 51.

In a second attempt, the two fought once again in UFC 59 and were able to avenge himself this time. Both fought hard for the title until Sylvia's punches brought Arlovski down for a TKO.
The two had a match once again in UFC 61 with Sylvia as the winner.
6. Chris Weidman vs Anderson Silva – UFC 168
Next on the list is Chris Weidman, known for defeating the UFC legend Anderson Silva in 2013, who was able to defend his title 10 times.
Image Source: Esther Lin / MMA Fighting
In a rematch to get his belt, Silva flew a kick to Weidman, which Weidman checked, causing Silva's knee to snap. Silva came back to the UFC but was never the same.
In fact, the two fought once more after Weidman's first win. For the second match, Weidman once again defeated Silva, further cementing his reputation as a formidable fighter. Weidman, also called "The All-American," is with Serra-Longo Fight Team. He is known for his Orthodox Stance and Wrestling fighting style.

The former Heavyweight champion before Stipe Miocic, whom he has fought three times, winning in the first and losing in the last two. He has an impressive record of 22 wins and three losses, as well as 10 KO/TKOs and five submissions, all in favor of Cormier.
Image Source: Sports Manor
One of his shining moments is his win against Anthony "Rumble" Johnson, whom he rear-naked-coked to submission just like at their previous fight at UFC 187. After this, Johnson announced his retirement.
Cormier, also called DC, has faced various strong fighters in Title fights including Miocic, Jon Jones, and Anderson Silva. So far, he has only lost to Miocic and Silva both in Title fights and overall.
4. Jon Jones vs Andre Gusmao – UFC 87
Jon Jones is the former Light Heavyweight champion before Jan Blachowicz' reign which started in September 2020. He emerged victorious in almost all of his fights.
His debut fight is his most remarkable because it was the introduction of one of the biggest names in the entire UFC. Jones was able to land a lot of strikes to Gusmao because of his exceptional reach, leading to a win by unanimous decision.
Nicknamed "Bones," Jones has a stunning record of 26-1-0 with a KO/TKO stat of 10-0 and 6-0 submissions. Almost half of his bouts are Title fights, with 14 wins and only one draw, with a No Contest decision. Jones fights in the Wrestling, Muay Thai, and Striker style with an Orthodox stance. He is currently with the team Jackson-Wink MMA.
3. Cain Velasquez vs Brock Lesnar – UFC 121
Cain Velasquez has held the title two times, one in 2010 and one in 2012. He snagged the title from Brock Lesnar in 2010.
Image Source: CBS Sports
At that time, Lesnar was the biggest name in the heavyweight division, at least he was until he faced Velasquez. At the start, the bout seemed to be in Lesnar's favor as he charged Velasquez at the opening.
However, Velasquez was able to recover and finish the fight on his feet after methodically striking Lesnar, who finished the fight on his back.
2. Randy Couture vs Gabriel Gonzaga – UFC 74
Next on the list is Randy Couture, who took the Heavyweight belt three times, with the first being in 1997, the second in 2000, and the third in 2007. He defended his recent title two times against Tim Sylvia and Gabriel Gonzaga, both in 2007, until he finally lost to Lesnar in 2008.
Image Source: The Oklahoman
Gonzaga is known for his head kick that brought down Mirko Cro Cop. When the two faced off, Couture threw punch after punch at Gonzaga, leading to Couture's tremendous win.
Couture has a W-L-D stats of 19-11-0, with 7-7 KO/TKO and 4-2 submissions. He has competed in 16 Title fights, with 10 wins.
1. Stipe Miocic vs Daniel Cormier – UFC 241
Finally, getting the number one spot is Stipe Miocic, the current Heavyweight champion in the Men's Division.
Image Source: Los Angeles Times
Miocic's last three matches were with Daniel Cormier, losing two of three bouts. However, the most remarkable was at UFC 241, in which Miocic suffered a torn retina. Regardless, he finished Cormier via knockout. Then, he did it again in UFC 252.
His past seven fights are all Title fights, six of which he won. His only loss is against Cormier, who entered this list in the fifth spot, in 2018 which ended in a KO/TKO decision. Currently, Miocic is with the Strong Style Fight Team. Aside from his W-L-D stats, he has a record of 14-2 KO/TKO, and one submission.
American UFC winners have superstar status because of their fighting spirit and tremendous skill and resilience. These 15 winning moments by these American fighters stand as a testament to this.

Another important issue is regulatory. According to Postma: "The infrastructure and market for money transmitter operators (MTOs) to use BTC as transfer and settlement option is just not here yet. For bitcoin to overcome these regulatory challenges there are several "areas of improvement". These includes customer identification and due diligence, verifying ownership and control of wallet addresses, and transaction monitoring for fraud. Therefore, Bitcoin institutions must prevent transfers that would violate OFAC (Office of Foreign Asset Control) sanctions or the UIGEA (Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act).
He also admitted that he would like to see the ability to send bitcoins via email, and to an IP address, along with the ability to send provisional payments subject to acceptance, and return of funds if not accepted.
For more, Bitcoin will be able to do everything better than Western Union's current services, but it will take time for the infrastructure to develop.
"Acceptance by major, reputable companies like WordPress and Baidu are beginning indicators of an idea whose time has come," says Englund. Moreover, a major household name accepting bitcoin (think Amazon, eBay, or perhaps a major phone carrier) would also be a good indicator. Bitcoin still faces its challenges, but some of the things that Postma highlighted in his presentation are in progress. Quite soon bitcoins may lead to bid changes not only Wester Union services but for any money transfer business.

Q: sharing session between WARs Is it possible for the session data of one war file to be shared by other war file

A: To the point, you just need to configure the server somehow to store the session in a cookie without a path. In case of Tomcat, you can just set emptySessionPath attribute of the <Connector> element to true in /conf/server.xml. Also see this Tomcat Configuration Reference.
<Connector ... emptySessionPath="true">

This however affects all webbaps deployed on the same server.
Update: as you are actually using Websphere (which uses Tomcat under the hoods), you need to alter the Tomcat connector in Websphere's config.xml to include the following attribute:
<attribute name="emptySessionPath">true</attribute>

A: Its not easy to do.  but I have been able to do this using tomcat.  Here is a link http://www.fwd.at/tomcat/sharing-session-data-howto.html I'm not sure what server you are using though.  Also, why do you need to do this, there may another solution depending on what you need to do.

A: Tomcat has the Signle-Sign-On Valve:

The Single Sign On Vale is utilized when you wish to give users the ability to sign on to any one of the web applications associated with your virtual host, and then have their identity recognized by all other web applications on the same virtual host.

You may also try to implement single-sign-on using cookies (though this has security drawbacks).

As a former museum curator, I'm very aware of the ways in which we "curate" history—choosing which facts to preserve and glorify, and which to overlook or cast away.
When I first wrote the post below, in 2012, I hadn't ever actually sat down and read the first-year journals of the settlers at Plymouth. And when I finally did, this year, I realized I'd perpetuated that curation here—repeating the details most commonly shared, and ignoring the rest. Telling half of the story.
So I'd like to fix that.
Karl Jacoby, in this excellent article in the L.A. Times, touches on the moment in 1621 when the surviving Plymouth colonists and their Indigenous neighbours "feasted" together in what is traditionally viewed as the first Thanksgiving.
And here's what we've "forgotten"—what I left out of my first post. Here's what the Pilgrim Fathers (with my ancestors among them) did in November 1620, a year before that "first Thanksgiving", as recorded in their own words in A Relation or Journal of the Proceedings of the Plantation Settled at Plymouth in New England, printed in London in 1622.
On first arriving in America, they went ashore at Cape Cod. Finding spots where the "Indians" had buried something, they dug and found a kettle full of corn, and after some discussion took the kettle and its contents for themselves.
A short while later they went back to that same spot and dug again and found more corn, "two or three baskets full of Indian wheat, and a bag of beans, with a good many of fair wheat ears." They took it all.
Venturing further along the paths, they found "a place like a grave…and resolved to dig it up". It was indeed a grave, carefully prepared with mats and painted boards, containing "bowls, trays, dishes, and such like trinkets" and "two bundles, the one bigger, the other less." The bigger bundle contained "the bones and skull of a man", so they "opened the less bundle likewise, and found…the bones and head of a little child, about the legs, and other parts of it was bound strings, and bracelets of fine white beads; there was also by it a little bow, about three quarters long, and some other knacks; we brought sundry of the prettiest things away with us, and covered the corpse up again." After this bit of grave robbery, they went back to digging in hopes of finding more buried food.
They also found "two houses, which had been lately dwelt in, but the people were gone". Gone so quickly, in fact, they'd left food and belongings behind them (they were probably hiding in the safety of the trees, watching the settlers steal their hard-earned winter food stores and desecrate their loved ones' graves).
The Englishmen rifled the contents of the houses. "Some of the best things we took away with us," the journal notes.
My ancestors were part of that.
This past year here in Canada, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission—charged with acknowledging and recording the voices of those bearing witness to the harm done across seven generations by our brutal residential school system—presented its report and set out its calls to action aimed at "establishing new relationships embedded in mutual recognition and respect that will forge a brighter future" between Canadians and those of the Indigenous nations upon whose lands we settled.
Reconciliation is a process, and a long one, but it starts with truth.
While I admire the courage and resourcefulness of my Mayflower ancestors, I'm not proud of all of their actions. For those who were living here when they arrived, their arrival was nothing to celebrate.
So when I tell the story of the "first Thanksgiving" to my children, I believe I ought to tell the whole of it—the good parts and the bad. Not only the "feast" of 1621, but the events of the November before that, when my ancestors stole "trinkets" from a child's grave, helped themselves to whatever they wanted from somebody's house, and dug up all the food someone else had worked hard to grow, harvest, and store, without caring what hardships that great theft might cause. I'll always wonder just how many people sickened from starvation, and how many died, because my ancestors had carried off that food.
It's still my family in that painting. I still honour them, and part of who and what they were has travelled down to me. But truth is truth. I couldn't, in good conscience, let this post stand without telling it.
One of the advantages of having been born into a family of amateur genealogists (apart from the travel this inevitably requires—much of it to reading rooms and graveyards, to be sure, but still, it's travel) is the fact that "history" isn't something chronicled in books, to me. It's something that once happened to my family.
The Battle of Waterloo? A member of my family was there, with the British Army. The American Revolution? I had family on both sides of that one, in New York and Boston, the conflict dividing our family enough that some members moved north into Canada. And in 1215, when King John put his signature to Magna Carta in front of the barons, his half-brother (also my ancestor) William Longespée was most likely nearby, being one of the powerful few in the realm who stayed loyal to John.
So today, on American Thanksgiving (which is what we here in Canada call it, to keep it distinct from our country's own Thanksgiving Day in October) I'm thinking, as usual, not of the history books, but of my family.
I'm descended from three of the Pilgrims who set sail from Plymouth on the Mayflower in search of a new life: John Tilley, his wife, and their daughter. And of the servants who went with the Pilgrims, two men were my ancestors: John Howland and Edward Doty. Which means, when I think of the Mayflower's voyage, I think of those five family members of mine, and the hardships they suffered, the risks they were taking, the lives they were leaving behind.
I also like to think of what they've given me, those distant men and women; not only what they might have passed down to me in my genes, but what examples they have left me by their actions.
To me, he's always stood as an example of tenacity—a useful trait for writers. Whenever things seem difficult and I feel at the end of my rope, I think of young John Howland literally at the end of his, "sundrie fadoms under water" in the middle of the ocean, never letting go. If I've inherited anything at all from him, it may be that ability to just hang on, and not give up, which through the years has stood me in good stead.
"Edward Doty was noted for his belligerence. On 18 June 1621, he fought the first—and only—duel in Plymouth Colony. His opponent was his fellow-servant, Edward Leister; and their weapons were swords and daggers. "
"Nevertheless, by the time of his death, Edward Doty had achieved a substantial measure of material success. He left to his family an estate that compared favorably with those of men who had more to begin with than the one-time servant..."
Well, OK. I am stubborn, and nothing if not argumentative. Maybe those traits have come down to me from Edward Doty. But stubbornness can be a positive trait, if it's turned to a drive to succeed. And although I don't think I'll be throwing a gauntlet down anytime soon, I do fight when I need to, for what I believe in, and maybe that's what he did, too.
All three of my male Mayflower ancestors—John Howland, Edward Doty, and John Tilley—were part of the small group of passengers who volunteered, on their arrival in the New World, to go explore the bay and settle on a landing-place. This they did in winter, in a small boat, in cold so brutal that one of the other men fainted from it. Being servants, there's always the chance that John Howland and Edward Doty might not have had much say in whether they joined that exploring party, but I like to think that they put up their hands and volunteered when they were needed; that they didn't run from danger and adventure, but charged headlong to meet it, and I know I could do worse in life than try to match that selflessness and courage.
John Tilley and his wife both died not long after the Pilgrims came to shore at Plymouth, but their young daughter Elizabeth Tilley, and her future husband John Howland, and the "belligerent" Edward Doty all survived.
All three are recorded as having been at that very first Thanksgiving dinner the following year, in 1621.
So today, when I look at a painting like this one, I don't see the history, or faces of strangers in strange-looking hats. All I see is my family, and I feel the force of their thankfulness touch me through time. And perhaps, that's what Thanksgiving's really about.


Once again not much time for crochet as my two grandsons and their daddy came to visit yesterday. In between playing in the paddling pool we were very wrapped up in the Harry Potter stories.
Danny and Harry (Ben) Potter wearing the 3D glasses from our TV - without lenses. We made wands from knitting needles and spent most of the afternoon making magic spells or going to quiddich practice on our floor mop (broomstick).
When they went home I finished the mole for my chemistry teacher friend it isn't quite what I wanted but I do like it. It is made using black chenile yarn but what I really like is that it seems to be joining in with flavour of the day by being the only flying mole in existence.
Then I thought can I crochet a paddling pool?
I think the answer may be a resounding no but it does look uncanily like our pool used to before we replaced it by buying the only paddling pool left in the whole of sunny England.

Get your Rebel Athletic apparel so fresh and so clean using the following wash and care instructions.
Clear, gentle PH balanced detergent, we recommend using Dreft.
PH balanced stain remover, we recommend Dreft Laundry Stain Remover.
Squeaky clean, debris free sink.
Flat surface for air drying, clothes rack recommended to allow airflow while the garment air dries.
Icy water. The most critical element to the care of your Rebel Athletic garments is the water temperature.
Pre-wash – Do not dry clean, hand wash only. If any stains are present, we recommend pre-treating with Dreft Stain Spray. Turn garment inside out. Fill sink with cold water, add detergent and to two cups of ice.
Wash and rinse - Quickly submerge garment in the icy water-detergent solution. Gently hand wash for 60 seconds and do not rub the fabric against itself. Drain sink, remove the garment and fill the sink again with only icy water to rinse the garment. Repeat this last step if needed to remove any detergent residue.
Drying – IMPORTANT! AIR DRY ONLY, DO NOT USE A CLOTHES DRYER. Turn the garment right side out, lay flat on a white, towel and insert another white towel within the body of the garment. This will reduce drying time and avoid any possibility of color transference during the drying process.
Care – Once completely dry, hang the garment on a fabric covered hanger, don't have one? No worries, a plastic hanger without blemishes will work just fine. For apparel that has a waistband made in Unicorn Hologram, Rainbow Sparkle, Mystique or has decoration (e.g. studs, crystals, vinyl), we highly suggest using a clamp-free hanger to deter indentations or damage to the garment.
Tip to remember when rocking your Rebel Athletic apparel: Perspiration, deodorant, hairspray, glitter spray, sunless tanning products and lotions may affect the color of your garment. Take precautions to avoid transference.
Wash and care instructions for Rebel Athletic Dream Bags.
Cleaning: We recommend using a damp, white cloth to clean the inside of your bag. Gently spot clean the high-density sparkle ONLY when necessary with a damp, white cloth. Do not use any harsh cleaners, chemicals or submerge in water as it will compromise the integrity of your Dream Bag.
Care: Rebel Dream Bags are meant to last a lifetime of competitions, workout sessions or sleepovers so be mindful of what items you transport in the bag. Our Dream Bags are durable and were initially designed with cheer athletes in mind. Please avoid overfilling or using the bag to carry heavy objects.
Care of Crystal Rebel Logo and embellished garments: Lost a crystal or two? We've got you covered! Included with your purchase of a crystal-embellished garment or Dream Bag are complimentary replacement crystals should you have minor crystal loss due to normal wear and tear. We recommend using e6000 Craft Adhesive (can be purchased at any fabric, craft or multi-purpose store) to reattach the crystals.
Wet the bristles under cold running water. Position the brush downward to prevent water from entering the furrule (the part that holds the bristles in place) which can potentially cause accumulation of mold and the bristles to shed.
Place one or two drops into the palm of your hand and gently massage the tips of the bristles using a circular motion. Use the same pressure you would when applying eye makeup.
Rinse then repeat if needed.
Remove the excess water from the bristles using a dry clean towel.
Allow the brush to air dry overnight with the bristles hanging off the edge of a counter or if you're fancy, a brush drying rack.
Clean brushes regularly using the above instructions.
Keep two brush sets should you need a backup brush that is clean and ready to use.
Use the velvety soft, purple case to protect your Eye and Face Makeup Brush Sets while you are on the go.

American Walking Pony är en hästras som utvecklades i USA för att få fram en ridponny för barn med extra gångarter, så kallade "gaited".
I USA säger man att ponnyn är "A Dream Walking" eller översatt "En gående dröm" på grund av sina flytande unika gångarter och med ett ädelt arabliknande utseende används rasen mycket till showridning där man även visar ponnyerna för hand.

Historia

10 maj 1968 föddes en palominofärgad hingst på Browntree farm i USA. Samma höst formades American Walking Registry trots att rasen inte ens hade formats. Allt man hade var den halvår gamla hingsten och ett sto som hette Flicka.

De två hästarnas ägare Joan Hudson hade bestämt sig för att få fram en ponnyras, perfekt för utställningar och shower för barn. Hon var så övertygad att hon startade organisationen i förtid. Den lilla palominofärgade hingsten användes sedan i många olika experiment med andra raser men tillsammans med Flicka föddes det första passande fölet som fick heta BT Golden Splendor.

Golden Splendor väckte uppmärksamhet med sina extra gångarter, den gyllene färgen och den höga svansföringen. I registret fanns nu fem hästar och Golden Splendor var nummer 5 och den enda hingsten att registreras. Föreningen menade då att de två raser som korsats var Welshponny och Tennessee walking horse och många uppfödare började satsa på korsningar mellan dessa två raser för att få fram samma resultat och man började göra reklam för rasen i olika hästtidningar för att ytterligare öka intresset för rasen.

Egenskaper

American Walking Pony är en smidig ponny som påminner mycket om ett Arabiskt fullblod i miniatyr med samma ädla drag. Rasen är mycket flexibel och kan användas till det mesta. På grund av sitt utseende och de extra gångarterna används rasen mest till utställningar och showridning. Exteriören är arabliknande med en slank, smidig kropp, litet huvud som ibland har en lätt inåtbuktande nosprofil och stora ögon. Det ädla utseendet är dock ett arv från Welshponnyn som har arabiskt blod i sig.

De två extra gångarterna kallas Merry Walk och Pleasure Walk. Merry Walk är en taktfull, nästan skuttande, men ändå jämn gångart. Pleasure Walk är en flytande gångart med höga knälyft som påminner om tölt. Gångarterna är flytande och väldigt bekväma för ryttaren.

Corn is native to the New World. Pueblan Indians speak of corn as the fifth element; there was earth, air, fire, water—and corn. That last sentence should be read slowly. We are keenly appreciative of how central rice is to the Asian diet. Perhaps we take more for granted that the European diet from which most of our ancestors migrated to American soil was heavily reliant on wheat. But when Columbus got here it was a world of corn. It was only through the pilgrim's acceptance of and adaptation to corn that allowed for their very survival.
Betty Fussell wrote the definitive book on corn, "Crazy for Corn". She states, "We don't just eat and drink corn as a vegetable and a grain. We eat it converted through fodder into pork chops and beef steaks, chickens and eggs, milk and cheese. We drink it as beer and whisky and soda pop. Corn is the base not just of our good chain but of our industrial chain. Industry eats corn chemically as an oil, a starch, and a sugar. Anything petroleum can do, corn can do better. We use this industrially converted corn in thousands of different products from cradle to grave, from talcum powder to embalming fluid. Every one of our lives is touched every day by an invisible network of corn".
While working in our kitchen last year I got a phone call from a friend who is also an aspiring poet/writer specializing in food and shall I say "sensual writing". As I was listening to her latest passages, one of my chefs set a hot pan of freshly roasted corn down on the counter to cool right by me. He had cooked it in the husks and I tore off a little of the ridged, warm, pliant wrapper and pressed it to my lips.
"Oh, Man", I helplessly let out. My friend on the phone intoned, "Norman likes that part, eh?" But it was the corn. I didn't explain. I didn't wish to diminish her happiness. But now I was hopelessly distracted into a glowing memory connection and while limbs were writhing on the other end of the phone, the only ears I wanted to nibble were coming into view through memory-land.
It was an early dusky evening in the late summer of my rural Illinois childhood. Our windows were always rolled down in the summer then-and as we pulled into the church parking lot it was as if an airshaft to sweet heaven was pouring directly down and engulfing us all. It was the one night of the year our church held its "Corn Roast". I couldn't get out of the car fast enough. The men and women working there had bushels upon bushels of corn that grew in the fields all around us and were working feverishly over the huge glowing charcoal braziers to meet the crowd's demands.
Whatever else was served escapes me.


Let me tell you about this photograph. I shot it using a Sony a6500 with a 10-18mm lens on a two-foot tall travel tripod and a 10-stop neutral density filter. The water looks pretty cool, right? All soft and flowy with the spray looking like mist. It takes time to make a photograph like this, and I'm not talking about the eight hours on an airplane to get to Iceland, and then the two hours to get from Reykjavik to Reynisdrangar. To get water to look soft and silky, you need a long exposure- in this case, the camera's shutter was open for eight seconds, and I took several in a row so I'd be more likely to get a shot with the water looking just right. I ended up crouching there for a long time, adjusting the camera settings, with my knees aching and one eye on the water to make sure the waves stayed far enough away.
See, Reynisdrangar (the area is also called Reynisfjara) is subject to a phenomenon known as sneaker waves, where you'll have a bunch of little waves and then seemingly out of nowhere, a large, powerful wave will suddenly wash over the beach. If you're not being careful, they can wash you out to sea. There's a sign at the top of the trail down to the beach warning you about sneaker waves and that you shouldn't turn your back to the ocean. So I didn't turn my back to the ocean.
I was being pretty smart, I thought, staying up on the rocky part of the beach despite the fact that I had a bit of tendonitis in one ankle and walking on those rocks was painful and tiring. When I picked a spot to photograph those famous basalt columns, I picked an area well away from the water line. It looked high and dry, and so I plunked my tripod down, set the camera up, and started on that series of long-exposure photographs.
I still had one eye on the water when that particular wave washed over the shore, ran well past the water line, and right up to my knees as I grabbed the tripod- camera and all- and ran away with an undignified squeak.
So the pursuit of this photograph (which turned out in spite of the wave), is how I ended up sitting on a rock on an Icelandic beach, barefoot, wringing seawater out of my socks, and squelching through the rest of the day with soaking wet shoes.


Sunspots, Freckles or...What is THAT ?
Many times the legs and feet are covered up and not examined on a regular basis. Then one day, we drop something on the foot or bang our toe and we look down to see the damage and notice a spot. Questions come to mind such as "was that there before and if so, is it now bigger, darker or changed in appearance" or "is this new and if so, is it from the injury or did it just go unnoticed until now". These questions are important but unfortunately, sometimes hard to answer since we really don't frequently look at our feet. So what should you do if you notice something on the skin and not sure when or where it came from?
Take out your cell phone or camera and take a picture of it.
Sometimes, ointments or creams can change the actual appearance of the lesion making it more difficult for your physician to make an accurate diagnosis. If you do self-treat, give yourself a specific time line, usually a week or so, to reevaluate it to see if it is improving and resolving or getting bigger, darker or more raised. If not resolving, the area should be examined by a physician and the photograph that you took will be helpful so bring it with you on your appointment.
At your appointment with us, we will take a history and examine the entire area to be certain there are no other skin lesions of concern. A small piece of the skin lesion may be removed and sent to a skin pathologist to confirm a diagnosis and proper treatment. A follow up appointment to review everything and initiate treatment will be made before you leave your first visit.
Together we can diagnose and resolve skin lesions that may be a concern before they develop into something that is more difficult to manage. Call us today.


Garrett J. DeWeese's concentration is in metaphysics and epistemology, specifically as related to philosophical theology. He is deeply committed to helping the church articulate and defend the concept of objective truth in an age of postmodernism and growing relativism. With a background in the sciences, he also has a long-standing interest in the relationship of science and theology. DeWeese brings a strong practical orientation to the classroom, having served as a missionary and over 15 years as a pastor. He is a frequent speaker in churches and college groups. He authored God and the Nature of Time, Philosophy Made Slightly Less Difficult (with J.P. Moreland) and Doing Philosophy as a Christian. He has contributed chapters to several books, and has published articles in journals such as Philosophia Christi and Discipleship Journal.

I BELIEVE THAT YOU CAN BE HEALTHY EVEN IF YOU LIVE WITH A CHRONIC DISEASE.
If that's true, then what is health? Is it the absence of a pathological process? Feeling comfortable in your body? Being fit and strong? Determined by blood tests and lab results, or by how you feel?
The Ancient Greeks regarded health as a duty, and the Aborigines in Australia view each individual's health as a microcosm of the health of the community as a whole. A community made up of sick individuals creates a sick society and vice versa. And who hasn't heard the adage, "You can't be there for others if you aren't there for yourself first." Taken in this context, creating and maintaining optimal health IS a duty.
Personally, I've had many long stretches when I've felt that my pursuit of health had taken over my life. It did become my object of living. When you are in intense pain and discomfort there is a great incentive to find ways to feel better and this can drive you to extremes. For me, this became extreme diets or nutritional regimens, sitting in saunas for hours at a time, rigidly controlling my schedule, uncomfortable chiropractic or medical treatments, as well as thinking that I had to look, or feel a certain way for things to finally be acceptable. Luckily one day I woke up and realized I wasn't having any fun.
How many of you know people who are health nuts that are miserable? I became one of those people. In my quest for health as I defined it I managed to do the opposite.
For the next couple of months I'm going to break down the journey to health into steps. Health will become a way of being instead of a bunch of rigid rules.
It's my life and I'm going to live it – Live yours too!

Q: ADAL in Nativescript for Angular I have a working Angular 8 solution with ADAL login using 3rd party library, https://www.npmjs.com/package/adal-angular4
Now I want to make the same in nativescript.
I have tried different ADAL libraries, but none of them seems to match.
My configuration looks like this
const environment = {
  config: {
    tenant: '123456789',
    clientId: '123456',
    apikey: '123456',
    redirectUri: window.location.origin + '/authenticate',
    endpoints: {
      'https://graph.microsoft.com': '12345',
      'https://someotherurl': 'https://blabla'
    }
  }
};

I have looked at this
https://market.nativescript.org/plugins/nativescript-azure-auth
but can't seem to figure how to have multiple resources. Also the redirecturl, I don't quite understand
This is what I have done so far
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { AzureAuth } from 'nativescript-azure-auth';

const authority = 'https://login.microsoftonline.com/' + environment.config.tenant ;
const clientID = environment.config.clientId;
const resourceId = '123456';
const redirectUri = 'https://asd/authenticate';

@Injectable({providedIn: 'root'})
export class AdalService {
  azureAuth: AzureAuth;

  constructor() {
    this.azureAuth = new AzureAuth(authority, clientID, resourceId, redirectUri);
  }

  login() {
    this.azureAuth.login()
      .then(accessToken => {
          console.log(`Token: ${accessToken}`);
      })
      .catch(error => {
          console.log(error);
      });
  }

It doesn't complain, but it doesn't look right. For example I am not asked to consent on login


Our aim is to foster a more competitive fixed telecommunications market in the UK, based on a regulatory framework that treats all competitors in this field equally and fairly. We believe that this is good news for consumers, the industry and the economy. Consumers will benefit from greater choice of more competitive, innovative products; network companies will be in a better position to compete; and the economy will benefit from greater investment.
Our mission is to advocate industry regulation that is pro-competition and does not favour the nation's largest monopoly incumbent. For this reason, we focus on working closely with the industry regulator Ofcom, the Government and other relevant organisations.
We are one of the leading voices in the UK fixed telecommunications industry, counting the majority of the market's main players as our members.
Find out more about our membership, how we work and some of the issues that we believe are fundamental to the success of a competitive fixed telecommunications market in the UK.


The event will be streamed live from this page. There is no registration to view the live stream. Online audience can submit questions to events@urban.org.
Join the Urban Institute for a discussion about a new data source on evictions in the US and its value for community response.
A shortage of affordable rental housing leaves millions of US households struggling to pay rent and avoid eviction. As documented by the sociologist and ethnographer Matthew Desmond and other housing scholars, evictions destabilize renters' current housing and affect their work, health, education, and future housing options. Preventing eviction can disrupt risky life trajectories that add costs to communities and impede opportunity. As policymakers, practitioners, researchers, and community leaders search for solutions, newly accessible data can catalyze evidence-based decisionmaking and advocacy by those on the front lines of the eviction crisis.
How can communities use these data to improve residential stability for all households? Matthew Desmond, the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City and a recipient of a MacArthur Fellowship, will speak to his latest research on evictions nationwide. A panel of practitioners and researchers will discuss the implications of the data.
Registration will being 3:00 p.m. and the program will begin promptly at 3:30 p.m. For questions regarding this event, please contact events@urban.org.
Support for this event is provided by the MacArthur Foundation. For more information on the Urban Institute's funding principles, go to http://www.urban.org/about/funding-and-annual-reports.

Imagem do Destino
Figure of Destiny
Creature — Kithkin
: Figure of Destiny becomes a Kithkin Spirit with base power and toughness 2/2.
: If Figure of Destiny is a Spirit, it becomes a Kithkin Spirit Warrior with base power and toughness 4/4.
: If Figure of Destiny is a Warrior, it becomes a Kithkin Spirit Warrior Avatar with base power and toughness 8/8, flying, and first strike.
Scott M. Fischer
8/1/2008 None of these abilities has a duration. If one of them resolves, it will remain in effect until the game ends, Figure of Destiny leaves the battlefield, or some subsequent effect changes its characteristics, whichever comes first.
8/1/2008 Figure of Destiny's abilities overwrite its power, toughness, and creature types. Typically, those abilities are activated in the order they appear on the card. However, if Figure of Destiny is an 8/8 Kithkin Spirit Warrior Avatar with flying and first strike, and you activate its first ability, it will become a 2/2 Kithkin Spirit that still has flying and first strike.
8/1/2008 You can activate Figure of Destiny's second and third abilities regardless of what creature types it is. Each of those abilities checks Figure of Destiny's creature types when that ability resolves. If Figure of Destiny isn't the appropriate creature type at that time, the ability does nothing.
8/1/2008 Figure of Destiny's second ability checks whether it's a Spirit, and its third ability checks whether it's a Warrior. It doesn't matter how it became the appropriate creature type.
10/1/2009 The effect from the ability overwrites other effects that set power and/or toughness if and only if those effects existed before the ability resolved. It will not overwrite effects that modify power or toughness (whether from a static ability, counters, or a resolved spell or ability), nor will it overwrite effects that set power and toughness which come into existence after the ability resolves. Effects that switch the creature's power and toughness are always applied after any other power or toughness changing effects, including this one, regardless of the order in which they are created.
