Hoarding for the inevitable meltdown

1. Mechless point of entry Readers ready to move past the old paradigm of CD-based music are in for a treat. Dual AV's XR4115 Digital Media Receiver is a solid entry-level product. This mechless car stereo, named as such because it lacks the mechanical moving parts that comprise an optical drive, plays MP3, WAV and WMA files via the front-loading USB slot and SD Card slot. It has a detachable face, wireless remote, three equalizer pre-sets and the USB port will charge any USB device that's connected. But the real factor is the price. At $70 (or cheaper via diligent web hunting), this product is not just entry-level but virtually immune from buyer's remorse. Dual AV may not have the Q-Rating of Sony or JVC, but it's not chopped liver. As a first foray into the stereo world sans CD player, there aren't many safer options than the XR4115 and not necessarily because it's the best mechless receiver ever but because the price tag is so modest that it is a relatively low-cost gamble for consumers interested in breaking their CD reliance. $70; visit dualav.com.
2. Jabra's big journey By my count, Bluetooth manufacturer Jabra released five different car speakerphones this past year. It's busy, it knows its market and its latest release, the Journey, includes most of the top specifications that have been featured in previous devices, with the exception of the three-speaker output available in the legitimately high-end Jabra Freeway. The Journey offers HD Voice Technology, which utilizes embedded speech processing developed by a company called Rubidium, and talks users through pairing instructions and battery and connection status, among other operations. The device is perfectly hands-free. Calls can be initiated and answered without any button to press. The speaker is loud and can be heard above cabin noise. It's better because the product does not have an FM transmitter, so all audio transmission relies upon the Journey's built-in speaker. We would like to see Jabra adopt a smaller profile. The Journey is smaller than its predecessors, but we'd appreciate it being smaller still. Knowing the precocious nature of this manufacturer, 10 smaller models are probably already rolling off the assembly line. $80; visit jabra.com.

"Today, the Council of the District of Columbia gave resounding, unanimous approval to establish a strong public campaign finance system for our local elections.
"I believe strongly that public financing of elections is one of the most vital tools to combat the corrupting influence of outsized campaign spending. Public financing of campaigns was among the first bills I introduced when I joined the Council five years ago, and I have introduced some version of this bill in every Council period since.
"This public financing system incentivizes candidates to spend more time meeting with residents and constituents, empowers residents of ordinary means to have a meaningful ability to compete for elected office, reshapes our donor class to be more inclusive and representative of the entire population of the District of Columbia, and combats the perception of pay-to-play politics.
"Fair Elections is about amplifying the voices of everyday D.C. residents.
"I look forward to final passage at the Council's next legislative meeting. Furthermore, I remain fully committed to ensuring the success of this program when it becomes law and will work with the mayor and my colleagues through the annual budget process to make a strong investment in our local democracy by funding this legislation.

Women's basketball earns first win in WNIT
The Morehead State women's basketball team earned its first postseason victory in program history in March as they defeated Ohio State 71-61 in the first round of the 2019 Women's National Invitation Tournament (WNIT) at Value City Arena in Columbus, Ohio.
Senior guard Aliyah Jeune knocked down five of seven triples in the second half as Morehead State erased a 11-point deficit to come from behind for the win. Columbus native and guard Darianne Seward (19) shined in her first collegiate game back in her hometown as she added 17 points while racking up five assists.
Morehead State improved to 24-10 with the win.
"It's an awesome moment tonight," said Head Coach Greg Todd. "You go through such a long season and have a lot of shining moments, but I thought tonight was an example of us playing our best basketball at tournament time. Every player played to their role."
Jeune, who went above 80 three-pointers for the season, scored a team-best 20 points and added nine rebounds as the Eagles out-rebounded the Buckeyes squad 44-34.
Graduate student McKenzie Calvert added 15 points, six rebounds and four assists while Miranda Crockett (19) extended her streak of double-figure scoring games to 38 with 10 points.
Morehead State shot 41 percent (27-of-66) for the game, but the important factor was the Eagles' 50 percent (16-of-32) effort in the second half run. Ohio State hit 41 percent overall but MSU held the Big 10 foe to just five of 18 from long range.
The Eagles would eventually go on to lose in the second round of the WNIT in a hard-fought game with the Western Kentucky University Hilltoppers with a score of 68-65.
The MSU Women's Basketball Team finished with an overall record of 24-11 and an OVC conference record of 13-5.

Home News MMA NSAC Fines McGregor $75k Instead of $150k
NSAC Fines McGregor $75k Instead of $150k
Aaron Portier
Oct 20, 2016 at 3:46 PM PDT
(Conor McGregor celebrates his win over Dustin Poirier after their featherweight fight during the UFC 178 event inside the MGM Grand Garden Arena on September 27, 2014 in Las Vegas, Nevada)
The Nevada State Athletic Commission recently fined UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor $150,000 for throwing water bottles during a UFC 202 pre-fight media event in Las Vegas. The Nevada attorney general's office had recommended a $25,000 fine, a sum the commission in their wisdom felt was wildly insufficient.
The $150,000 sum represented 5% of McGregor's $3,000,000 fight purse for the UFC 202 fight with Diaz. McGregor also had to do 50 hours of community service and is required to help launch an anti-bully public service announcement campaign.
The sport, collectively, was not impressed. The fine was viewed as one in a series of significant missteps by a commission once seen as the best in North America.
The NAC tried to ban Wanderlei Silva for a life after he ran from a PED test in 2014, but a judge overturned the punishment, calling it "arbitrary and capricious." There was another hearing, and the suspension was changed to three years, retroactively. The NAC tried to ban Nick Diaz for five years for NOT testing positive for the demon weed marijuana, the fighter fought back legally, and the commission quietly changed the five years to 18 months, retroactively to the date of the "offense."
McGregor too did not accept the punishment. The fighter said he no longer wanted to fight in Nevada. UFC president Dana White called it "crazy" repeatedly
In an interview with Mike Bohn for Rolling Stone, McGregor went farther.
"I don't see Nevada in my future, for the foreseeable future is how I see it," said McGregor. "I'm free to do what I want. … I'm good. I'm good. New York, New York. That's what I think."
"I owned up. I man'd up. I'm here. I apologized. I'm not trying to blame nobody, although they fired the rounds off first. I didn't think they would even go that route because I didn't think this was like a real thing. Are they going to come and arrest me or what the f*** is that? I wanted to give them the respect and I felt they would have respected that but they didn't. So, whatever. It is what it is. Good luck trying to get it."
Now the commission says there was a misinterpretation of the original fine. On October 10, Steven Marrocco, an impeccable actual journalist, reported for MMAjunkie that, "the commission also put McGregor to work as a celebrity, earmarking half of his money to fund a public service announcement against bullying that he'll appear in."
Now on October 16, Nevada Athletic Commission executive director Bob Bennett offered some clarification. Apparently rather than earmarking $75,000 for a PSA, they were fining McGregor $75,000, and Bennett and NAC chairman Anthony Marnell calculated his participation in the PSA as being worth another $75,000.
So the $150,000 fine is actually a $75,000 fine – three, rather than six times what the attorney general's office had recommended. And in addition it is $75,000 worth of his time contributing to an anti-bullying PSA.
Marc Raimondi has the odd story for MMAjunkie.
"It appears the media and others got it wrong," said Bennett. No explanation was provided for why he waited a week to offer the clarification.
Bennett noted that the $75,000 fine goes to the state's general fund. So there is no "red panty night" windfall for the commission as some have argued. The Executive Director also said he was disappointed about McGregor's comments, noting that a thrown energy drink had hit someone in the audience and that McGregor was not suspended, nor did he face a criminal or civil case.
"I understand that he's upset," said Bennett. "I understand that he commands a phenomenal following and paydays and he's a world-renowned champ. I get that he's frustrated — $75,000 is a lot of money. But I think the remark is inappropriate. In fairness to Conor — and I say this with the utmost respect — I just don't think he understands how the system works when he's fined."
"[McGregor] wasn't suspended, nor were people in either fighter's camp that participated in this. The Nevada State Athletic Commission didn't go after anybody else. … I'll be the first to say that we've got it right sometimes and we haven't gotten it right other times. When we don't, we want to right the wrong."

Highly passionate MMA Journalist, and I've followed the sport ever since my favorite fighter, Vitor Belfort won the heavyweight tournament at UFC 12. After that I've tried to go to every local MMA event around the Gulf Coast and surrounding areas and decided to make it a point to have a career in some aspect in the fighting sport other than fighting in general (didn't want to ruin my face). I'm currently enrolled at Southeastern Louisiana University working towards a degree in Communication. I cover MMA, Boxing and Football for The Daily Star newspaper in my hometown of Hammond, Louisiana, in addition to working as a promotional writer for a local Boxing promotion known as BoxnCar and I cover boxing for 8countnews.com however SciFighting.com is my home. My main goal is to bring more publicity to MMA in my area and to the sport as a whole as all of us involved with the sport are merely scratching the surface and laying the foundation of what mixed martial arts competition will be further down the road.

Any interaction between molecules that directs the migration, proliferation and differentiation of cells, alterations of which can cause pathology.
Subsequently, investigated in the presented study PR samples are more prone to oxidation and therefore better adhesive interaction with rubbers might be expected.
In addition, the adhesive interaction with wood can alter the adhesive's cure chemistry, especially near the adhesive--wood interface.
Textile waste usually contains various finishing products on the fibre surface, which could hinder adhesive interaction between the adhesive and wood veneer.
Fluoropolymer F10 adheres to the surface of anodized titanium, thanks to the adhesive interaction between the phosphate group and the OH groups present on the substrate surface.
The species by adhesive interaction showed no significant difference between keruing-RF and keruing-PU/AEP in dry bending, both being in the highest bending strength combination grouping (Table 4).
The topics include stem cells and nanotechnology in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, micro-engineering and nano-engineering approaches to developing gradient biomaterials suitable for interface tissue engineering, integrating top-down and bottom-up scaffolding tissue engineering approaches for bone regeneration, characterizing the adhesive interactions between cells and biomaterials, vascular tissue engineering, and applying stem cells in ischemic heart disease.
The study shows that the adhesive interactions of extracellular matrix might be harnessed to manipulate stem cell behavior and realize the full therapeutic potential of the cells.
The study shows that die adhesive interactions of extracellular matrix might be harnessed to manipulate stem cell behavior and realize the full therapeutic potential of the cells.
Co-author Professor Tony Day, from Manchester's Wellcome Trust Centre for Cell-Matrix Research, said: "This cross-faculty collaboration provides exciting new possibilities for how we might harness the adhesive interactions of extracellular matrix to manipulate stem cell behaviour and realise their full therapeutic potential.

Female Founders Fund launched in 2014 with a very specific investment thesis – to invest in early-stage female-founded technology companies. Fast forward to today, the fund has twenty five active portfolio companies with female founders based between NYC, SF, and LA. As we celebrate three years of investing in entrepreneurial women and their ideas, it's a good time to reflect on our journey thus far and our plans for the next phase of growth.
My thesis in starting Female Founders Fund was that the time had come for an exciting new wave of technology companies created by female founders with unique insights into consumer problems and opportunities. More and more women with experience at large technology ventures were leaving to apply their skill sets to new start-ups, but this was a demographic that was being largely ignored by the broader venture world. The goal was to build a firm at the center of this ecosystem, offering not just capital but a broader network of accessible operators, investors, and continuous support. We have focused on exceeding expectations as helpful investors with the ability to connect our founders to some of the most well-respected VC's and successful female operators across the country. The broader vision for the fund was to replicate what the traditional venture industry has been doing for years: supporting each other as investors and entrepreneurs through a deep network.

PLEASE READ THIS FIRST: I have X Y Z condition/problem - can NeuroSonica help?
NeuroSonica DO NOT provide medical or psychological advice or diagnosis of any kind - this includes making product recommendations for individual clients. However we DO provide regulated information regarding instructions for use, contraindications, certain evidence based claims, safety warnings and so on.
(1) Read our regulated claims to decide if a product may be of assistance.
(2) Try our free 'Mini-D-Stress' for a 'Lite' sample of this kind of technology.
For medical or psychological advice please always refer to a qualified medical professional.
Are these audio technologies considered safe?
Yes- as a Class 1 Medical Device we are considered a low-risk technology provided you have no contraindicated conditions and use our products only as instructed. Our therapeutic sound technologies are backed by decades of clinical use and scientific research and have never been associated with any serious issues or problems. However, in the highly unlikely event you experience any severe or unpleasant effects, simply stop using it and consider seeking medical advice in case you have an undiagnosed condition.
When are your next apps available?
Our products take a great deal of time and effort to develop and we cannot give exact release dates for our future apps- but please consider 2020-2021 as probable. We thank you for understanding this. We will notify our customers as soon as they're available or you can register your interest on our future products page.
What is 'Parental Supervision' for 13-18 year olds?
As one of our purchase conditions for Sleep Solutions parental (or guardian) supervision is required for teenagers 13-18 years. This is a way of ensuring our audio is used only as instructed and in strict accordance with our Contraindications - especially regarding epilepsy and traumatic brain injury. In addition to accepting full responsibility for such use (see our T&C) parents or guardians should monitor such use and discontinue it if problems or other issues arise. Our audio is not available for purchase by those under 18 years.
We are considering future audio for children 7-12 (not toddlers or infants at this stage). We are primarily interested in assisting with children's sleep, ADD/ADHD, emotional regulation and stress/anxiety management. We will alert our customers should this become available.Clinicians have been using clinical sound technologies including entrainment safely and successfully with children for decades. We have found no research or reports to date suggesting any detrimental effects whatsoever - only benefits. Experts suggest that therapeutic audio technologies are far more gentle and benign than most pharmaceutical interventions.
I suffer from headaches and migraines. Should I use your audio?
In many instances, yes! Clinical trials have shown that some of the technologies we use may be effective in the alleviation of headaches - including migraine. Although you might not want to listen during an episode (unless very quietly), listening as instructed at other times has helped users as reported in our testimonials. The exception however may be headaches related to neurological damage and injury in which case you should consult with a medical professional first. Please read our product descriptions to see which ones may be best for assistance with headaches.
Can I play your audio through external speakers or should I use headphones only?
Our audio is designed to be played through stereo headphones, ear buds or similar listening gear only. Stereo speaker pillows (with your head in the middle) should be fine, but otherwise do not use external systems as they may (1) effect others nearby and (2) interfere with its sound technologies and effectiveness. While good quality headphones or ear buds produce optimal sound quality, benefits and effects, most medium quality units are fine. However, please avoid really cheap low end ones! Bone conduction headphones can also be used if you want to experience even stronger effects.
What if I notice early improvements and/or stop using it?
This is up to you. Some users report noticeable improvements very quickly. If you're happy with your results and do not feel a need for further use you can simply stop. You can always begin listening again anytime you wish to resume the benefits. As a rule however, regular use may encourage ongoing changes and improvements.
Can SmartSound help improve hearing?
We do not make this claim. However, ancedotal reports of hearing improvements in the higher frequencies have been reported, including for a senior as noted by their audiologist. If so, it may be simply that the audio has heightened a listener's sensitivity to frequencies that they previously filtered out or did not pay attention to. While there may be other theories and possible explanations as to how this may occur, if you do experience improved hearing please tell us!
I have some hearing loss. Will your audio work for me?
Yes-providing you have at least some degree of hearing, benefits should take place. Obviously you may need to regulate volume levels accordingly. Also, some of the lower frequencies and other technologies may be enhanced with bone conduction headphones.
How long before I experience effects or results?
Most people notice or feel 'something' happening in their very first sessions - and often within the first few minutes! Our audio may produce both short and long term benefits depending on your level of use, your sensitivity to this kind of technology and so on. If you have a longstanding condition or issue we recommend you persist for at least 90 days to encourage maximum results.
I'm pregnant. Can I use your audio?
Although we've found no research to suggest any problems whatsoever with sound technologies for pregnant women, purely as a precaution we recommend you consult with a physician before using any of our audio. A fetus is highly sensitive to any stimulus experienced by the mother, and although a deeply relaxed mum listening to a relaxation or sleep session should encourage a deeply relaxed baby, we prefer to err on the side of caution nonetheless.
Are there any side-effects or initial adjustments?
Yes - there may be. Like any exercise regime or 'workout' some new users may experience initial adjustments and side-effects from the neural and auditory stimulation. These are listed elsewhere but may include temporary minor headaches, tiredness, disorientation, dizziness or even slight nausea from the vestibular and other stimulation provided by our audio. The good news is that these can be easily minimised or eliminated simply by using very low volumes, or listening for shorter durations or less frequently until they subside. Should you experience anything other than temporary mild discomfort as mentioned above, discontinue use and see a medical professional.
Why is it not recommeded for those with pacemakers, epilepsy or seizures?
This is a standard industry safeguard as these technologies and conditions can be pulse or frequency sensitive. Epilepsy for example has been known to be triggered by pulsed strobe lighting- although not by sound. Although some clinicians are finding success in treating epilepsy with pulsed audio this is not an intended application of our technologies and is contraindicated. If you are wearing a pacemaker or have any form of seizures and still want to try our audio you must do so ONLY under the supervision and guidance of a suitably qualified medical practitoner.
I have brain trauma or injury. Will NeuroSonica help?
Like epilepsy, brain trauma or injury (TBI) of any kind is strictly contraindicated unless our products are used under the supervision and guidance of a appropriate medical professional(s).

Johnny Rzeznik, właśc. John Joseph Theodore Rzeznik (ur. 5 grudnia 1965 w Buffalo) – amerykański kompozytor, autor tekstów, wokalista, gitarzysta i producent muzyczny polskiego pochodzenia. Najbardziej znany jako lider zespołu Goo Goo Dolls, którego jest założycielem, i z którym wydał dziesięć studyjnych albumów.

Życiorys

Początek
Urodził się 5 grudnia 1965 w Buffalo jako najmłodsze z pięciorga dzieci Josepha i Edith Rzezników. Joseph był polskiego pochodzenia (jego rodzice – dziadkowie Johna – przybyli do USA z Krakowa w 1913). Pracował jako urzędnik pocztowy. Edith była niemiecko-szkockiego pochodzenia. Z zawodu była nauczycielką. Rodzice Johna byli muzykami, grającymi na klarnecie (Joseph) i flecie (Edith). John otrzymał surowe, katolickie wychowanie. Szybko stracił rodziców. Jego ojciec zmarł w wyniku komplikacji alkoholowych, kiedy Johnny miał piętnaście lat. Zaledwie rok później jego matka zmarła na nagły atak serca. Od tej pory Rzeznik był pod opieką swoich czterech starszych sióstr – Phyllis, Fran, Glad i Kate. W okresie licealnym zaczął grać na gitarze. Wkrótce po tym, jak dostał swoje własne mieszkanie, został punkiem. W 1986, kiedy to uczył się zawodu hydraulika w McKinley Vocational High School w Buffalo, utworzył wraz z Robbym Takakiem i George'em Tutuską zespół. Początkowa jego nazwa to Sex Maggots. Jednak została ona zmieniona na Goo Goo Dolls, ponieważ ich promotor wyraził obawę, że lokalne gazety nie wydrukują ogłoszeń koncertowych zespołu o takiej nazwie.

Pierwsze kroki Goo Goo Dolls
Początkowo zespół grał koncerty z Robbym jako liderem (Rzeznik stawał się liderem stopniowo, wraz z tym, jak kolejne albumy zawierały coraz więcej piosenek śpiewanych przez niego). Wkrótce, pod skrzydłami małej, niezależnej wytwórni Mercenary, podjęli się nagrania swojego pierwszego albumu, zatytułowanego po prostu Goo Goo Dolls, na co mieli budżet w wysokości 750 $. Następnie, w 1989 grupa zyskała zainteresowanie innego wydawcy – Enigma / Death Records – dzięki czemu ukazała się druga płyta Goo Goo Dolls, Jed. Rok później zespół przyciągnął uwagę większej wytwórni płytowej, Metal Blade, która zrealizowała ich trzy następne albumy. W 1995 wydali album A Boy Named Goo, z którego pochodzi ich pierwszy ogólnokrajowy hit "Name". Płyta okryła się platyną, ale grupa nie była zadowolona z kontraktu z wytwórnią Metal Blade. Album sprzedał się w liczbie 2 mln kopii, a członkowie zespołu zarabiali na nim tylko po 6.000 $ rocznie. Wytoczyli wytwórni proces, a rezultatem było zerwanie kontraktu z Metal Blade i podpisanie nowego z Warner Bros. Records.

Blokada twórcza Rzeznika
Po sukcesie A Boy Named Goo Rzeznik popadł w blokadę twórczą. Rozczarowany biznesem muzycznym i procesem z wytwórnią oraz znajdujący się pod presją powtórzenia sukcesu poprzedniej płyty, Rzeznik udał się do psychoterapeuty, aby poradzić sobie ze swoim problemem. Udało mu się to, kiedy skomponował piosenkę do ścieżki dźwiękowej filmu Miasto Aniołów. Zainspirowany filmem, Rzeznik napisał największy przebój Goo Goo Dolls – "Iris". Zarówno film, jak i piosenka, odniosły ogromny sukces. "Iris" utrzymała się przez osiemnaście tygodni na pierwszym miejscu 100 Najgorętszych Przebojów Radiowych (Billboard Hot 100 Airplay), co stanowi rekord tego notowania. Ponadto utwór znalazł się na czele listy 100 najlepszych piosenek pop z lat 1992–2012, opublikowanej przez magazyn "Billboard". Hit umieszczony został także na albumie Dizzy Up the Girl, który sprzedał się w liczbie 3 mln kopii.

Gutterflower, soundtrack filmu Disneya, działalność poza Goo Goo Dolls
Po sukcesie Dizzy Up the Girl i trasie koncertowej promującej ten album, Rzeznik napisał większość materiału na następną płytę Goo Goo Dolls – Gutterflower, która ukazała się w 2002. Ten album również odniósł sukces, chociaż nie tak duży, jak Dizzy Up the Girl czy A Boy Named Goo. Okrył się on "zaledwie" złotem. To z niego pochodzą takie utwory, jak "Here Is Gone", "Sympathy" i "Big Machine".

Po albumie Gutterflower Rzeznik napisał utwory "Always Know Where You Are" i "I'm Still Here" do filmu Disneya Planeta skarbów.

Niedawno Rzeznik skupił trochę uwagi na produkcji rozmaitych artystów, włączając Andy'ego Stochansky'ego i Ryana Cabrery. Napisał też piosenki na debiutancki album tego drugiego – Take It All Away. Napisał również dla Blessed Union of Souls, Anastacii, Zoe Scotta i wielu innych.

Życie prywatne
W 1990 Rzeznik poznał swoją przyszłą żonę, modelkę Laurie Farinacci, którą poślubił w 1993. W 1997 doszło do ich rozwodu. Wkrótce potem poznał aktorkę Adrienne Frantz, ale ten związek również zakończył się zerwaniem, w 2005. Następnie związał się z Meliną Gallo, która obecnie, od 26 lipca 2013, jest żoną Rzeznika. Z tego związku, 22 grudnia 2016 muzykowi urodziła się córka – Liliana Carella Rzeznik.

Styl muzyczny

Wpływy
Kiedy Rzeznik dorastał, duży wpływ na jego gusta muzyczne miały jego starsze siostry. Dzięki nim słuchał takich zespołów, jak The Beatles, The Rolling Stones czy The Kinks. Później najmłodsza z jego sióstr zaraziła go miłością do punka. Zaczął interesować się takimi zespołami, jak Sex Pistols i The Clash. Na twórczość Rzeznika duży wpływ miały także takie grupy, jak Kiss czy Cheap Trick. Jednakże największy wpływ na teksty muzyka miał Paul Westerberg i zespół The Replacements, z którym Goo Goo Dolls często byli porównywani.

Feng Zikai, född 9 november 1898 i Tongxiang, Zhejiang, död 15 september 1975 i Shanghai, var en kinesisk konstkritiker, målare, karikatyrtecknare och buddhist. Feng är känd som en banbrytare inom den kinesiska seriekonsten manhua.

Feng kom från en välbeställd familj som på grund av oroligheterna i Kina under mitten av 1800-talet tvingats överge kejserliga examensväsendet till förmån för en kommersiell karriär. Han studerade både i Kina och Japan.

Feng utarbetade en särskild stil som kombinerade kinesisk tuschteknik med moderna impulser och slog igenom på 1920-talet som serietecknare och illustratör. Ett av hans mest kända verk är illustrationer av Lu Xuns verk. Under andra kinesisk-japanska kriget (1937-45) tvingades Feng fly till Guangxi-provinsen.

Efter Folkrepubliken Kinas grundade 1949 upphörde Feng att verka som illustratör.

Bulharština je jihoslovanský jazyk zapisující se cyrilicí. Spolu s makedonštinou tvoří východní větev jihoslovanských jazyků.

Etymologie
Slovem Bulhaři (българи) [bŭlgari] se původně označoval národ ze střední Asie, jehož jazyk neměl nic společného se slovanskými jazyky. Bulhaři se v 7. století usadili na Balkáně a byli asimilováni místním slovanským obyvatelstvem; dali mu však své jméno a zanechali stopy jak ve slovní zásobě slovanské bulharštiny, tak v její gramatice.

Rozšíření
Kromě Bulharska se bulharsky mluví v sousedních a dalších zemích, kam v minulosti Bulhaři emigrovali: Kanada, Řecko, Maďarsko, Izrael, Severní Makedonie, Moldavsko, Rumunsko, Srbsko, Turecko, Ukrajina, USA. Celkový počet mluvčích se odhaduje na 9 miliónů, z toho 8 miliónů ve vlastním Bulharsku, kde tvoří 85 % populace.

Historie
Bulharština má ze všech slovanských jazyků nejdéle psanou formu. Rozlišujeme starobulharštinu (9. až 11. století), střední bulharštinu (12. až 15. století) a moderní bulharštinu (od 16. století). Dnešní pravopis se ustálil v 19. století.

Abeceda a výslovnost

První bulharské prameny jsou psány hlaholicí, ale už ve starobulharském období byla tato abeceda nahrazena cyrilicí, později modernizovanou. Od ruské cyrilice (azbuky), která je v Česku známější, se liší následujícím:
 Е se čte [è], neměkčí předchozí souhlásku.
 Ё ([jo]) chybí, někdy se píše ьо.
 И neměkčí předchozí souhlásku – ди, ти, ни - [dy], [ty], [ny].
 Э (ruské [e]) chybí.
 Щ se čte [št].
 Ъ označuje samohlásku [ə], do latinky se přepisuje jako ă. Tento znak je nazýván "er goljam" (velký jer) a po úpravě písemné formy jazyka se objevuje na začátku slova zcela výjimečně. Často jím bývá nahrazena libovolná samohláska, která se vyslovuje nezněle. Obvyklé je použití pro přepis cizích slov/jmen např. Carol – Каръл. Více se dočtete ve článku Šva.
 Ы (jery, [y]) chybí. Používá se jen jedno i a nerozlišuje se tvrdé a měkké.

Bulharská abeceda:

Přepis současně udává i českou výslovnost, s výjimkou písmene х, které se přepisuje h (také ch v nelingvistických textech, např. chán Asparuch), ale čte se [ch], a výše zmíněného ъ/ă.

V bulharštině se často vyskytují v tištěném textu písmena v tzv. "rukopisném stylu", ve kterém jsou některá písmena naprosto odlišná i v základním (kolmém) typu písma a který je podobný kurzivě. V tomto stylu se písmeno д (kurzivou д) píše podobně jako malé "g" v latince, písmeno т (kurzivou т) jako malé "m" v latince, písmeno и (kurzivou и) jako malé "u" v latince, písmeno п (kurzivou п) jako malé "n" v latince, písmeno г (kurzivou г) jako zrcadlově otočené "s" v latince, písmeno к (kurzivou к) jako malé "k" v latince a písmeno л (kurzivou л) se píše podobně jako vzhůru nohama obrácené "v" tedy podobně jako řecká Λ.

V roce 1945 byly z bulharské cyrilice odstraněny znaky, které neexistovaly v ruské azbuce, jež byla sama reformována v roce 1917. Bulharské písmo a pravopis se tak vzdálily od svých staroslověnských kořenů, aby se vše přizpůsobilo sovětské praxi. Od 27. února 1945 měly v Bulharsku právní platnost pouze dokumenty vytištěné s použitím nového písma.

Jednoduchá transkripce
Bulharský přepis cyrilice do latinky se vyvíjel a v 90. letech 20. století vyústil v Jednoduchý systém transliterace bulharštiny orientovaný na angličtinu a používající výhradně znaky základní latinky a jejich spřežky, podobně jako čínský pchin-jin. V roce 2009 byl uzákoněn.

Gramatika
Bulharština má některé rysy, které ji odlišují od většiny ostatních slovanských jazyků. Téměř chybí skloňování podstatných jmen, naopak se vyvinul člen (nikoli jako samostatné slovo jako v západoevropských jazycích, nýbrž jako přípona jmen, ke kterým člen patří). Slovesa nemají infinitiv, zato mají mnoho staro- a předslovanských tvarů, které z jiných jazyků vymizely. Existují zvláštní slovesné tvary pro děje, které mluvčí neviděl, slyšel o nich z druhé ruky či má o nich pochybnosti.

Bulharská mluvnice vychází ze stejných principů jako mluvnice ostatních slovanských jazyků, vyznačuje se však určitými zvláštnostmi:

Člen
Bulharština spolu s makedonštinou se od ostatních slovanských jazyků odlišují tím, že mají gramatický člen, a to postponovaný (postpozitivní), tedy takový, který se připojuje za příslušný výraz (podstatné jméno, přídavné jméno, zájmeno nebo číslovku). Graficky tvoří s daným slovem jednu jednotku (slovo a člen se píše dohromady). Existence členu i jeho realizace v postpozici (podobně jako např. v rumunštině) je jedním z dokladů vzájemného ovlivňování jazyků Balkánského jazykového svazu.

K označování známých osob a věcí se používá určitý člen (ve významu "ten").

 човекът – (ten) člověk, жената – (ta) žena, морето – (to) moře, мъжете – (ti) muži
 старият човек – (ten) starý člověk
 моята жена – (ta) moje žena

Podstatná a přídavná jména
V bulharštině došlo ke ztrátě pádových koncovek. Z původních 7 pádů zůstal pouze tvar nominativu (1. pádu) a vokativu (5. pádu – podobně jako v češtině u podstatných jmen mužského a ženského rodu v jednotném čísle). České pády se v bulharštině vyjadřují pomocí předložek.

Rod přídavného jména se shoduje s rodem podstatného jména. Rodové koncovky se rozlišují pouze v jednotném čísle (добър – dobrý, добра – dobrá, добро – dobré), v množném čísle je společný tvar pro všechny tři rody (добри – dobří, dobré i dobrá).

Přídavná jména se stupňují pomocí předpon по- a най- (добър – dobrý, по-добър – lepší, най-добър – nejlepší).

Zájmena
Osobní zájmena mají zjednodušené skloňování oproti češtině – mají méně tvarů (základní – podmětový – a předmětový). Předmětové tvary jsou i v bulharštině dlouhé (мене – mně) a krátké (ми – mi). Oba tvary se ve větě často používají současně (мене ми се присъни тази нощ – zdálo se mi dnes v noci). Krátkého tvaru osobního zájmena se často užívá místo zájmena přivlastňovacího (майка ми – moje matka).

Ostatní zájmena mají ve všech pádech stejný tvar.

Číslovky

Slovesa
Bulharština nemá zvláštní tvar pro infinitiv. Vyjadřuje se opisně pomocí částice да a tvaru slovesa v přítomném čase (искаш да купиш – chceš koupit). Ve slovnících se slovesa uvádějí v 1. osobě jednotného čísla přítomného času.

Bulharština si zachovala systém čtyř minulých časů, které v češtině zanikly již ve středověku.

 Jednoduché minulé časy:
 Aorist – minulý čas ukončený (написах – napsal jsem)
 Imperfektum – minulý čas neukončený (пишех – psal jsem)
 Složené minulé časy:
 Perfektum – neurčitý minulý čas (předpřítomný), tvoří se stejným způsobem jako minulý čas v češtině s tím rozdílem, že tvar pomocného slovesa být (съм) je zachován i ve 3. osobě (написал е – napsal, написали са – bylo napsáno).
 Plusquamperfektum – předminulý čas (написал бях – byl jsem napsal – [už předtím, dříve než])

Kromě toho existuje i tzv. forma nepřímé výpovědi, která vyjadřuje děje, které mluvčí osobně nezažil. Používá se často ve vyprávěních historických událostí a pohádek a do češtiny se může překládat použitím příslovce prý. Tento způsob vyjadřování je hojně využíván novináři. Běžně se používá ve 3. osobě minulého času (aoristu nebo imperfekta). Má podobné tvary jako perfektum, ve 3. osobě však nejsou pomocné tvary е (je) nebo са (jsou), např. той написал това – on to (prý) napsal.

Budoucí čas se vyjadřuje pomocí slovesa ще (nečasuje se), a to jak u dokonavých, tak i nedokonavých sloves:

 ще чакам – budu čekat
 ще почакам – počkám
 ще бъде – bude

Předbudoucí čas se tvoří slovesem ще, přítomným časem slovesa být a příčestím minulým významového slovesa. Vyjadřuje (např. jako v angličtině, španělštině či němčině) děj, který se odehraje před jiným budoucím dějem.
 ще съм учил – doslova: budu jsem učil (budu se učit před nějakým jiným budoucím dějem)

Futurum preteritum – budoucnost v minulosti – čas, který vyjadřuje děj budoucí v minulosti. Např. chtěl jsem něco udělat. Tvoří se slovesem щях (=imperfektum slovesa ще, ale na rozdíl od něj se časuje), částicí да a přítomným časem významového slovesa:

 щях да уча – chtěl jsem se učit

Futurum exaktum preteritum – předbudoucnost v minulosti – jedná se o velmi speciální čas. Bulharština je jedna z mála řečí (možná i jediná), která používá tento čas. Vyjadřuje děj budoucí v minulosti jako futurum preteritum (viz výše), který má ovšem vztah k jiné události v budoucnosti, nebo následuje v souslednosti po tomto ději ('Chtěl jsem se učit a pak jsem se chtěl dívat na televizi', nebo 'Chtěl jsem jít studovat obchodní akademii, ale oni mi to chtěli rozmluvit'). K jeho složení použijeme opět щях, částici да, přítomný čas slovesa být a příčestí minulé významového slovesa.

 щях да съм учил – chtěl jsem se učit (ale potom následuje ještě další děj...)

You are correct that there are no specific weight limits for the attractions, and Disneyland Resort caters to guests of all shapes and sizes, but some rides might not be as comfortable as others and a little pre-planning can go a long way in making sure you have the absolute best time when you visit!
My son is has a few special needs and has issues with feeling confined. Because of this, I found a site called All Ears that has a great comprehensive list of rides with photographs of the seats that is perfect for you to determine ahead of time which would work the best and which might not be as magical. This would help avoid any embarassment when you arrive at the queue. While I can't link directly to the site I can provide the address: allears.net/dlr/tp/seatpix.htm. You can always ask a Cast Member at any of the entrances to the attractions any questions about the seats or comfort as well. They are more than happy to help!
I hope this helps you with your planning and please let me know if you have any other questions before your visit!

Tiuleń (ros. Тюлень) – rosyjski okręt podwodny typu Morż z okresu I wojny światowej, wchodzący w skład Floty Czarnomorskiej, służący w latach 1915–1924.

Historia
Stępka pod budowę okrętu została położona 25 czerwca 1911 r. w Zakładach Metalowych w Mikołajowie. Zwodowano go 19 października 1913 r. Nazwa "Tiuleń" oznaczała po polsku: foka.

Służba
Do służby we Flocie Czarnomorskiej wszedł 26 lutego 1915 r. Uczestniczył w I wojnie światowej. Prowadził działania na nieprzyjacielskich szlakach komunikacyjnych u brzegów Turcji i Bułgarii. Zatopił 5 statków parowych i 25 żaglowców, w tym w maju 1915 r. barkę "Tahiv", zaś 26 października 1916 r. kabotażowy parowiec "Tursen" (150 ton). 3 sierpnia 1915 zatopił torpedą statek "Zonguldak" (1545 BRT) płynący w konwoju. 1 kwietnia 1916 storpedował węglowiec "Dubrovnik" (4238 BRT), opuszczony i dobity później przez okręt podwodny "Morż". 24 kwietnia 1916 uszkodził artylerią bocznokołowy prom "Resanet" (230 BRT) (płonący osadził się na brzegu, później wydobyty). 29 lipca 1916 uszkodził prom "Hale" (298 BRT) pływający na Bosforze, który wyrzucił się na brzeg (później podniesiony, nienaprawiony), a następnie zaatakował prom "Neveser" (287 BRT), który uciekając wyrzucił się na brzeg. Ponadto okręt podwodny "Tiuleń" zdobył 3 statki jako zdobycz wojenną, m.in. 21 października 1916 r. po pojedynku artyleryjskim zdobył koło Kefken Ada uzbrojony parowiec "Rodosto" (3662 BRT) i przyprowadził do Sewastopola. 6 października 1917 zdobył statek "Mahi" (1211 BRT).

16 grudnia 1917 r. załoga okrętu przeszła na stronę bolszewików. 1 maja 1918 r. w Sewastopolu przejęli go Niemcy, zaś 24 listopada tego roku interwenci brytyjsko-francuscy.

3 maja 1919 r. banderę na okręcie podnieśli biali gen. Denikina. Okręt wszedł w skład Floty Czarnomorskiej Białych. 14 listopada 1920 r., podczas ewakuacji wojsk z Krymu, przepłynął do Konstantynopola, a stamtąd 29 grudnia tego roku do Bizerty, gdzie został internowany przez Francuzów. 29 października 1924 r. władze francuskie zwróciły go formalnie Sowietom, ale z powodu umów międzynarodowych okręt nie został przekazany, zaś pod koniec lat 20. oddany na złom.

Hillary will do nothing to win over the next generation of liberal voters
In a Philadelphia town hall meeting, the night before Pennsylvania's primaries, Hillary Clinton said the worst thing possible to all of Bernie Sanders' supporters. The Young Turks dubbed this moment the Worst Line of the night. It truly was a slap in the face to every progressive out there finally starting to see hope in the political process.
The question was set up poorly but that was to the benefit of Hillary Clinton.
Rachel Maddow asked, "When Senator Sanders has been asked about how this all ends, he seems to be saying now that, even if you beat him in the primary, it's not necessarily a given that he will implore all his supporters to go out and work for you. He says that he thinks they will support you if, basically, you adopt some of his platform on the issues that are most important to him. He's specifically talked about Wall Street and some other things in his platform. Does that make sense to you? Is that something you'd be open to? Are there significant enough differences between you in what you'd like to do for example about Wall Street, that that's a bridge too far?"[Emphasis mine]
You can see the problem right there. The corporate media, as liberal as Rachel Maddow may be, is really having trouble understanding that this isn't a popularity contest. Bernie Sanders' supporters aren't there because they like Bernie as a person, as nice as he may be.
The issues are what has garnered this grass roots support, not the man. Bernie knows this.
Bernie wasn't making a threat, he was simply acknowledging that he doesn't control his supporters. He's not encouraging them to fall in line with what he wants, he's encouraging them to make their own voices heard.
Hillary is concerned about that grass roots support, however. Her answer comes across as a brag, if you ignore all of the voter disenfranchisement. There just always seems to be problems at the polls in states Hillary wins.
"Well, Rachel, let's look where we are right now. I've got 10.4 million votes. I have 2.7 million more votes, real people showing up to cast their vote, to express their opinion than Senator Sanders. I have a bigger lead in pledged delegates than Senator Obama, when I ran against him in 2008, ever had over me. I am winning."
After that she turned to outright lies.
"My Wall Street plan is much more specific than his. We saw that when he couldn't even answer questions in the New York Daily News interview."
As many analysts have said after that New York Daily News hit-piece, it was the reporters that didn't understand the question, not Bernie Sanders. Bernie gave a simple, succinct answer that just didn't happen to be what the interviewer was looking for.
For Hillary to repeat that lie this long after it has been invalidated is not accidental. Not only does she not plan on adopting any of the progressive policies that Bernie's supporters want, she is continuing to pretend that it's all too much to ask.
To Rachel Maddow's credit, she did follow up on Hillary's strange insinuation that she doesn't need Sanders' supporters:
"Am I right in hearing that, basically you're saying there's nothing you're going to do differently than you're already doing as a way to try to win over his supporters?"
Clinton just seemed disgusted that she was even asked. She started talking about the 2008 primaries against Obama and said she didn't have any conditions for Obama before throwing her support behind him. Obama was also the most liberal candidate at the time, that changed after he entered office and made her Secretary of State. (No conditions?)
Regardless of what Hillary thinks she's entitled to, Bernie's supporters will not just throw their support behind Hillary. They are not supporting the man, they are supporting an idea.
And if anything, she has proven in her answer to be the antithesis to that idea.

New Lung Cancer Surgery Speeds Healing
Inserting a camera, surgeons work without opening the chest
WEDNESDAY, July 6, 2005 (HealthDay News) -- A new minimally invasive surgery called thoracoscopic lobectomy can reduce pain and recovery time for patients with early stage lung cancer, according to a Michigan surgeon who is one of the first in the country to use the technique.
The procedure involves the removal of a portion of the lungs without spreading open the ribs or cutting large muscles, which occurs in traditional lung cancer surgery.
With this new technique, the surgeon makes three small incisions and then inserts a miniature camera through a fourth incision. This 'keyhole' approach allows the surgeon to view the inside of the chest during the operation.
According to Dr. Allan Pickens, a thoracic surgeon at the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center, in Ann Arbor, thoracoscopic lobectomy allows patients to leave the hospital in half the time of conventional lung cancer surgery. Many return to work within two weeks, he said.
"It's a way of treating cancer with a less invasive procedure that will get patients back to their regular activities sooner," Pickens said in a prepared statement.
The U.S. National Cancer Institute has more about lung cancer.
