Anime Impressions: Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro
Our Episode 1 Impressions on Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro

Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro is yet another popular manga series receiving an adaptation this season. The series follows the oddly intriguing yet highly toxic relationship between the titular Nagatoro and her senpai Naoto. I remember coming across the manga years back and being astounded at the sheer brutality and candidness of the first chapter, as it wastes no time in getting to the actual bullying.
The Stockholm Syndrome
The first episode begins as Naoto enters the library and notices a group of underclass girls who, for some reason, he seems to despise. We then see why a few minutes later, as the girls find a self-insert and cringy manga he's working on and begin to tease and harass him for it before finally leaving him alone.
Unfortunately, this mild ribbing isn't the end for poor Naoto, as Nagatoro stays behind to continue his torture. She proceeds to tease him even more on the manga by brutally ripping into him with insults. She emasculates him, goes for his insecurities, calls him a crybaby, sexually harasses him, the works. While having this devilishly horrid smirk on her face in the process.
It's quite odd to think about how this anime is meant to be a romantic comedy, as the first episode alone shows how messed up it would be to call this flirting or anything close to being romance. Let me make things clear. Nagatoro doesn't playfully tease her senpai, she morally destroys and puts him to tears. It gets so bad that it becomes uncomfortable to watch this poor dude get absolutely bashed on. What's worse is that he doesn't even try to defend himself as he's used to being bullied all his life and goes as far as to say he doesn't mind when she's the one doing it. Which honestly leaves me speechless.
Now I'm not one for victim-blaming or anything, but I believe one should always stand up for themselves, especially in these situations, or the problem will always worsen. And while I understand this is just an anime and one that leans on the heavily fetishized part of moral abuse, it's still something to think about nonetheless.
Animation & Direction
In between scenes of verbal abuse, the anime also throws in a lot of sexual shots of our heroine, which threw me off, as it's clear to see that the anime tries to sexualize and fetishize bullying, which is not my thing. Other than everything I just mentioned, I have to say that the adaptation is pretty good, especially when you compare it to the manga. For one, the animation is way better than I thought it'd ever be, and its high quality shows with the way our characters move. Nagatoro takes the spotlight, exhibiting a lot of energy with her body movements while her senpai is more low key and barely moves, which fits his character. The facial expressions are also quite hilarious and way too detailed, especially Nagatoro's. The overall visuals are sharp and colorful, and the backgrounds are detailed.
However, the most memorable part of the anime so far has to be Sumire Uesaka's performance as Nagatoro as she does a scarily good job in voicing the mischievous Nagatoro with all her annoying quirks. Daiki Yamashita, (who voices Izuku Midoriya) also does an excellent job of voicing the wimpy Naoto proving all those years of voicing Midoriya paid off. The anime follows its manga's format, where each chapter takes place on a different day, with multiple chapters in an episode. As someone's who's kept up with the manga, I can confirm that the anime will get a little more interesting once other characters are introduced.
For now, though, if you're someone with a history of being bullied or has an aversion towards it, then I wholly advise you to stay away from this anime. Otherwise, I can honestly say that it's quite entertaining and a surprisingly excellent adaptation of the manga.

Time Server is crucial configuration for any Active Directory environment. With time not in sync could lead to logon failures, and incorrect co-relation of log files and even Active Directory failures.
Time configuration on Physical Servers is easy, but on Virtual Machines it needs extra care and I will explain Why later in this article.
Flexible Single Master Operations (FSMO) role, PDC Emulator, is responsible for time-sync across the enterprise. All other domain controllers sync to PDC Emulator role for time sync, child domain PDC emulators sync their time with root Forest PDC Emulator, and all member servers and workstations sync time with the their respective domain controllers.
Execute below commands in PDC Emulator to sync time with external time source.
Though domain controllers are configured to sync time with external time source or PDC Emulator, the Physical Servers are also joined to domain, they may have wrong time updated on them. This creates a time mis-match loop, and creates a major time sync problem across the enterprise.
To overcome this, you can disable Time sync service on the Virtual Machine to sync time with Hypervisor it is running on.
To do this, go to the properties of Virtual Machine properties (Hyper-V or VMM) (I don't have VMM environment running at the moment, and can't write the exact step here at the moment, but I will try to add it as soon as I can).
Navigate to Integration Services and uncheck Time Synchronization. This will disable the VM time sync with the underlying hypervisor and guest OS would now sync time only with time source it is configured to use.
Please ensure that Time Sync integration service is disabled on all VMs that are acting as domain controllers in the environment.

Juan José "Johnny" Canales (born 1947 in General Treviño, Nuevo León, Mexico) is a Mexican retired  Tejano singer and former host of the television show "The Johnny Canales Show". Canales is credited with one of the first live performances of vocalist Selena by her 13th birthday. He took Selena y Los Dinos for their first concerts in Mexico. As a radio DJ in 1974, Canales gave Ruben Naranjo considerable airplay.

The original show

Johnny Canales was the executive producer for The Johnny Canales Show which debuted in 1983. His program showcased emerging bands from Mexico and the United States. Some of his guests included La Sombra de Chicago, Selena, Nancy, La Mafia, Mazz, Intocable, Grupo Pegasso De Emilio Reyna, Fama, Jaime y Los Chamacos, Jennifer Peña, Los Tigres del Norte and Los Relámpagos del Norte and many more. It aired on Televisa in Mexico and Univision in the United States from 1988 until 1996.

Network change

In 1996, Canales made the transition to the Telemundo Network. On November 12, 1997, Canales was interviewed for the UTA Center for Mexican American Studies Oral History Project. In 2002, Johnny Canales reached an agreement to bring his show back to Televisa and arranged to start touring again, doing shows in the Southwest part of the United States and Mexico. The show also aired on TuVision from August 2008 to November 2009.

Cancellation and Telemundo Lawsuit

Telemundo canceled the show in 2005, prompting Canales to file a lawsuit against the network. The lawsuit claims the network engaged in fraudulent and deceptive business practices against Canales, interfered with other business opportunities and ruined Canales' reputation. At the time of the lawsuit, Canales was seeking $100 million. The suit has since been dropped.

Present info

On May 31, 2009, Canales received a "Veteran of the Year" award from LULAC for his work on behalf of the G.I. Forum

Canales' wife, Nora, said they tried to film a pilot in 2008 but the project came to a standstill after he suffered a series of health problems including a stroke. After heart surgery and physical therapy he has made a full recovery. He continues to have health problems to this day.

Return of The Johnny Canales Show

On March 29, 2011, Canales compiled a free show at the American Bank Center's Selena Auditorium in Corpus Christi, Texas. It featured performances from Grammy Award-winning acts such as Ramon Ayala, Ruben Ramos & The Texas Revolution, Los Palominos and many others. It was recorded and edited into a pilot, which Canales plans in pitching to networks, in efforts of getting the show back on the air.

Government to look into builders' demand to boost realty sector: Housing secretary
Posted in Affordable Housing News On May 29, 2021
Housing and Urban Affairs Secretary Durga Shanker Mishra on Friday said the government will look into various demand of the real estate industry, including an extension of timeline for completion of projects by 6-9 months.
He highlighted various initiatives taken by the government in the past seven years such as development of 1.12 crore houses under the Prime Minister Awas Yojana (PMAY), launch of the Affordable Rental Housing Complex scheme for migrant workers, 'infrastructure' status to affordable housing, and 100 smart cities.
Mishra was addressing a webinar organised by realtors body NAREDCO.
NAREDCO's representatives made several demands before the secretary to revive both demand and supply in the sector that has been badly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The association sought extension of timeline for completion of projects by 6-9 months under the realty law RERA, extension of all building permissions till March 2023, rationalisation of government taxes on real estate, and control of rising prices of cement and steel.
It also sought reintroduction of interest subvention scheme, grant of input credit tax on GST paid in leased commercial real estate, suspension of insolvency law for some more period, and an online environment clearance system.
Responding to the demand of extension of timeline for project completion, Mishra assured that he will "go in detail" to understand the matter.
"If need be, we will take this matter to RAC (RERA Advisory Council)," he said.
However, the secretary did mention that this relief was given last year because of the imposition of the national lockdown.
On high taxes levied by the central and state governments on real estate, Mishra directed the ministry's senior officials to examine the matter in detail.
"We will try to reduce government levies," he said.
Regarding a rise in prices of steel and cement, Mishra said he took up this issue with the ministry's concerned and would discuss the issue again.
On the PMAY, he said 1.13 crore houses have already been sanctioned and out of that, 48 lakh have been completed and handed over to the people.
The secretary informed that India's ranking in ease of doing business related to construction activities improved to 27 from 186.
He said the new ranking is expected any time and expressed confidence that "we will be in top-20".
The secretary said the real estate sector contributes seven per cent to the gross domestic product (GDP). It is a USD 200-billion industry and set to become a USD 1-trillion sector with rapid urbanisation, he added.
Emphasising on affordable housing, Mishra said the highest housing demand is in economically weaker section (EWS) and low-income group (LIG), and observed that the millennial also wants 2-3 BHK flats and not bungalows.
Talking about the Central Vista Project, Mishra said the new Parliament building will be ready next year. He also rubbished criticism about this project.
At the outset, NAREDCO President Niranjan Hiranandani said the construction activities have slowed down because of the second wave, as only 50 per cent labourers are working on sites. He demanded that timeline for completion of projects should be extended as it was done last year.
NAREDCO Chairman Rajeev Talwar said all permission related to the development of projects should be valid till March 2023.
Tata Housing MD and CEO Sanjay Dutt expressed concern about the abnormal price rise in cement and steel. He said steel prices have more than doubled while cement rates have gone up by 50-70 per cent in the past one year.
Dutt also pitched for reintroduction of subvention scheme, under which builders agree to pay EMI on the behalf of homebuyers for a certain period.
Neel Raheja of K Raheja group put forward demand related to commercial real estate and sought inputbtax credit benefit.
Rajan Bandelkar from Naredco Maharashtra said the second wave has more impact on the sector than the last year's first wave. He demanded extension of timeline for project completion by 6-9 months as well as suspension of insolvency laws for some period.
Ashok Mohanani, president of NAREDCO Maharashtra, was also present in the meeting.
NAREDCO is one of the leading associations for the real estate sector with around 5,000 members.

AdMob East To Focus On Expanding Mobile Brand Advertising
by Mark Walsh @markfwal, January 28, 2008
Seeking closer ties with Madison Avenue, San Mateo, Calif.-based mobile ad network AdMob has opened a New York branch.
The AdMob East office will be led by ad sales veterans Adam Schneider and Robyn Borok, and will focus on expanding brand advertising on AdMob's mobile platform. Much of that effort will involve continuing to educate agencies about mobile marketing opportunities, according to Tony Nethercutt, AdMob's vice president of sales.
"We are spending a ton of time on education about mobile, what the possibilities are and best practices, and just trying to demystify it," he said. "People make it way too complicated. It's a lot like interactive, but with a few more subtleties about what you can do."
Started in 2006, AdMob now sells banner and text ads on more than 3,000 mobile Web sites from big-name marketers including Ford, Procter & Gamble, BlackBerry and Best Buy. The company says it is serving 2 billion impressions per month. With growing interest in mobile advertising, Nethercutt said the time had come for the company to have a physical presence in the ad industry's capital.
The larger agencies AdMob has worked with to date are GM Planworks, Avenue A|Razorfish, OgilvyInteractive, MEC Interaction and AKQA. "All of these agencies have groups they're starting and assigning mobile expertise to," Nethercutt said. "So we're talking with a lot of players in the [mobile] space, and expect those relationships to grow."
In the last few months especially, Nethercutt said he has seen agencies incorporate mobile into broader interactive media buys through media planning tools like aQuantive's Atlas and DoubleClick's MediaVisor. "It's definitely becoming more of a staple on interactive buys as advertisers take advantage of the things mobile can bring to the table," he said.
Making face time with the agencies on behalf of AdMob will be ad sales directors Schneider and Borok. Before joining AdMob, Schneider was a founding executive at mobile startup Cellfire, and previously was vice president of sales at online rewards network MyPoints.
Borok was previously advertising director for Child magazine and has also held ad sales-related positions at Primedia and iVillage.
During the last year, AdMob has grown from a dozen to 60 employees, including some working overseas, Nethercutt said.

Defending NHRA Funny Car Event Winner Cruz Pedregon Feels Right At Home At ZMax Dragway
April 24, 2019 raceproweekly NHRA
Story By: SCOTT SMITH / NHRA – CONCORD, NC – When the NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series and zMAX Dragway first made plans for a four-wide drag race in 2010, Cruz Pedregon considered himself a fan of the concept. Heading into this weekend's 10th annual NGK Spark Plugs NHRA Four-Wide Nationals at the state-of-the-art facility, not much has changed for the two-time Funny Car world champion.
Pedregon still enjoys the most unique experience in drag racing, picking up his first four-wide win a year ago. It broke a long winless streak and now the veteran driver looks to grab his first win of 2019 in his 10,000-horsepower Snap-On Tools Dodge Charger. Based on previous performances, Pedregon, who is currently 11th in Funny Car points, has high expectations for the weekend as he again looks to thrive at one of the biggest spectacles in motorsports.
"Ten years for this race is a great milestone, and I've liked it from the very beginning," said Pedregon, who has 36 career Funny Car wins. "It's a little different and it mixes things up a little bit, but I like it. You get four Funny Cars out there, it's quite a scene. It's a lot of power. I like the facility and I love the track, and I've made some of my best runs in Charlotte."
Steve Torrence (Top Fuel), Pedregon (Funny Car), and Jerry Savoie (Pro Stock Motorcycle) were last year's winners. The race will be televised on FOX Sports 1, including a broadcast of the finals on Sunday, April 28 at 6:00 p.m. (ET). It is the sixth of 24 events during the 2019 NHRA season and Pedregon will look to cash in during the special 10th anniversary of the race.
Pedregon thrived in the unique conditions a year ago at zMAX Dragway, and he believes he's bringing a better car to the race in 2019. He has qualified in the top half of the field at four of the first five races, qualifying third in Las Vegas. It has translated to just two round wins thus far, but Pedregon believes that luck is about to change. Things have come together well early in the season, and Pedregon remains confident in the path his team has taken.
"We're on track and if we keep chopping wood, we'll break through," Pedregon said. "The main thing to do is not try too hard. You can't press too hard whether you're tuning or driving, and you just have to be confident in what you're doing can carry you through. When you start pressing, that's when you start making mistakes. This isn't our first rodeo. The car is running well and we're confident in what we're doing away from the track and at the track will pay off."
With the schedule picking up, including a stretch of three races in four weeks and seven in nine weeks, Pedregon knows he will need to be in prime form. Throw in the fact he'll be competing against the likes of points leader Robert Hight, who has three wins in 2019, defending world champ J.R. Todd, John Force, Ron Capps and Phoenix winner Matt Hagan, and things get even more difficult. But Pedregon likes performing when things get challenging, and he seems to excel during the frenetic pace of the NGK Spark Plugs NHRA Four-Wide Nationals at zMAX Dragway.
"Every driver has a track where they do well, and for whatever reason Charlotte has been good to me," Pedregon said. "I love going there. Our car is as good or a tick better than last year, so we'll just try to go out and do what we did last year. For me, I prefer this type of year when it gets busy. I can get in more of a groove and we feel like the breaks will start to come for us."
Defending Top Fuel world champion Steve Torrence will look for his first win of 2019 against the likes of points leader Doug Kalitta, 2017 world champ Brittany Force, who won in Houston, Gainesville winner Richie Crampton, Leah Pritchett, Clay Millican and Antron Brown.
Veteran Jerry Savoie, the 2016 Pro Stock Motorcycle world champ, grabbed his first four-wide victory in 2018. He'll look to repeat against a talented crop of riders that includes five-time champ Andrew Hines, Vegas four-wide winner Hector Arana Jr. and defending world champ Matt Smith.
The E3 Spark Plugs NHRA Pro Mod Drag Racing Series presented by J&A Service makes the third of 12 stops in 2019 with its appearance at zMAX Dragway. Jose Gonzalez grabbed his first career win in the popular class last year at the event, while Todd Tutterow and Stevie "Fast" Jackson have claimed the first two wins of 2019. Fan favorites Erica Enders and Alex Laughlin will be competing in this exciting category as well.
The ultra-competitive SAMTech.edu NHRA Factory Stock Showdown will hit the track for its second appearance of the season. This growing series features production car drag racing at its best. Fans of modern muscle cars will love these quick and unpredictable machines that represent the ultimate in technology and performance.
Back by popular demand, the exciting Mountain Motor Pro Stock class will make its four-wide racing debut in Charlotte this year. With dynamic paint schemes and throwback hood scoops, Mountain Motor Pro Stock cars bring maximum entertainment value when they hit the track, making the second of four appearances in 2019. The event also features thrilling competition in the NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series, showcasing the future stars of the sport.
The second round of qualifying on Friday night will be a special treat for as the NGK Spark Plugs NHRA Four-Wide Nationals go Prime Time! With pyrotechnics, a live DJ, driver intro music and header flames under the lights, this will be an unforgettable experience for race fans.
As always, fans can interact with their favorite drivers as they're granted an exclusive pit pass to the most powerful and sensory-filled motorsports attraction on the planet. This unique opportunity gives fans direct access to the teams, allowing them to see firsthand the highly-skilled mechanics service their hot rods between rounds, and get autographs from their favorite NHRA drivers.
Fans also will want to visit NHRA's popular Nitro Alley and Manufacturers Midway, where sponsors and race vendors create a carnival atmosphere, with interactive displays, simulated competitions, merchandise, food and fun for the entire family.
Mello Yello Drag Racing Series qualifying will feature two rounds at 4:30 and 7:30 p.m. on Friday, April 26 and the final two rounds of qualifying on Saturday, April 27, at 2:00 and 4:15 p.m. Final eliminations are scheduled for 12 p.m. on Sunday, April 28.

Q: Create table with conditions & from several source I need to create a table with column from two other tables.
I also need to have condition on several of the column (typically testing if the value of the row is not null).
I have tried several ways, but I only managed to add as much column as I want from one other table, without any conditions testing.
here basically what I'd like to make :
CREATE TABLE target_table
AS(
SELECT column1 FROM source_table1 WHERE column1 IS NOT NULL
UNION
SELECT column2, column3 FROM source_table1
UNION
SELECT column1 FROM source_table2
)

with this query I get the : "query block has incorrect number of result columns" error.
I have tried also this :
CREATE TABLE target_table
AS(
SELECT column1 FROM source_table1 WHERE column1 IS NOT NULL
UNION
SELECT column2 FROM source_table1
)

It "works" as there are no errors, but none of the column2 rows are in my target_table.
This is probably trivial but I have been unable to find any answer of these kind of table creation with condition and several column origin..

A: Number of column should be same for union operator
and data type also have to be same
CREATE TABLE target_table
AS select * from
 (
SELECT column1, ' ' as column3 FROM source_table1 WHERE column1 IS NOT NULL
UNION
SELECT column2, column3 FROM source_table1
UNION
SELECT column1, '' FROM source_table2

Did you enjoy the Ekka? The Ekka celebrates farmers and their wonderful produce. It reminds us of the importance of bringing the paddock to the plate, and all in all the benefit of sourcing locally.
Due to the short time period between harvesting the produce, and it been delivered to your plate, locally source food contains more of the volatile vitamins and minerals that are so often lost when food travels cross country. Crops can also be picked at the peak of their ripeness, which ensures they are full of robust flavors.
So why not source locally?
Angelo's do just that. We pride ourselves on supporting local farmers and bringing the best product possible to our customers. We always buy local whenever possible.
We use Durum Wheat to make our pasta. Durum wheat is where the husk of the wheat is removed to reveal the semolina, which is then ground down to flour. It's a lot courser than 'bread flour', but creates delicious tender pasta, and also increases nutritional benefits.
Durum Wheat contains much higher levels of protein than traditional flour. It also contains strong gluten content, which prevents starch from leaching out quickly. This means: slower digestion, slow release of sugars into the blood and a greater satiation (feeling of fullness). The gluten found in durum wheat is often kinder on your gastrointestinal tract, which leaves you feeling happier all around. The best part, the wheat used by Angelo's is sourced from Northern NSW from a region called the Golden Triangle.
The Golden Triangle spans from North Star to Moree to Goondiwindi. Due to the growing conditions of this region, this area produces the best quality Durum Wheat. The processing Mill deals directly with Farmers to purchase their grain. The direct purchasing focus builds strong relationships between the farmer and the Mill and puts tight controls over the quality of the grain received.
We support local dairy farmers by only buying private label milk. We having been doing this for nearly 50 years and will continue to do so well into the future. We are a local family business, so we support other families with our purchasing choices.
Duck Eggs are one of Angelo's favourite ingredients to use not only in our pasta, but also in recipes. We only make our duck egg products, such as our duck egg contadina, when they are available from the farm. We source our duck eggs from a local farmer on the Queensland Sunshine Coast.
Duck eggs have twice the nutritional value of a chicken egg and stay fresh for longer due to their thick shell. Many people who are allergic to chicken eggs can tolerate duck eggs (but if you aren't sure, be sure to talk to your doctor about that one). Duck eggs are an Alkaline producing food, one of the few foods to leave your body more alkaline. We also support our local farmer by stocking duck eggs at our factory store.
We regularly stock duck eggs and can always order them in when they are available from the farm.
So, with the ekka in mind, why not try out our boutique range. It celebrates natural fresh and seasonal flavors at their best. They add that extra depth of flavor and colour to your dishes, with rich flavors captured between the durum wheat. The flavours range from mushroom to spinach (anything to get some extra greens on your plate!) to chilli and many more. Check out the full range on our online catalogue or come into our factory on Doggett Street, Fortitude valley.

Kingsman Actress Cast in 'Lead Role' in Star Trek 3
Janey Tracey
Friday, 10 April 2015 - 4:55PM
Algerian actress and dancer Sofia Boutella, who was most recently seen as the assassin Gazelle in Kingsman: The Secret Service, was just cast in the upcoming Star Trek 3. According to Deadline, the actress is booked for a "lead role," although they couldn't offer any further details, even whether the character was on the "good" side or the "bad" side.
It's unclear what a "lead" role would mean for this franchise, considering that Star Trek and Star Trek: Into Darkness stars Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Anton Yelchin, Karl Urban and Zoe Saldana are all set to return. It seems that the only way she would have a really significant role would be as a villain, perhaps side-by-side with Idris Elba. That's pure conjecture at this point, but if she is connected to Idris Elba's character, then we would at least know that she's not a Klingon.
Star Trek 3 will be directed by Justin Lin and written by co-star Simon Pegg and Doug Jung. It is set to be released on July 8, 2016.

Why has the Regional Council made it more difficult to install a wood burner into a property that doesn't have an existing one?
Since 2007 the Regional Council has been funding the upgrading of existing wood burners to cleaner burning appliances in the Rotorua Airshed. Newer technology produces less smoke, cleaner air, and improved health for the community.
While the community, with Council's support, have been upgrading their old burners there were no restrictions on installing new burners, into homes that didn't have existing ones. Many new wood burners got installed in the Rotorua Airshed adding more smoke and undermining the community's efforts to reduce wood burner smoke.
A new rule requires the person wanting to install a new wood burner in Rotorua to find someone who is willing to take their fire out. One burner goes out – one goes in. This is called offsetting. One fire offsets the other. The Regional Council aren't banning wood burners (like some South Island towns and cities) but we are saying, "If you want to add smoke into a community that is working hard to reduce their smoke from wood burners, then you need to find someone who is prepared to take their fire out, before you can put one in." This is a community health issue and everyone needs to play their part.
You can install a wood burner that is on the Ministry for the Environment's Authorised wood burner list that has an emission rate of less than or equal to 0.60g/kg but first you must apply for a Resource Consent from Bay of Plenty Regional Council.

Boeing Shakes Things Up with Aerion Partnership
by PBJ Staff / Feb 25, 2019
The Aerion AS2 (Picture Source: Aerion Corp)
There are few companies in aviation with as much influence as Boeing. The iconic name behind classics like the Boeing 707 has a huge amount of financial and industry impact. So, when they recently announced a new partnership with Aerion, it certainly turned a few heads.
It's not every day a company manages to secure such a lucrative partnership with a bastion of the aviation industry. So, who is Aerion? And what can they bring to the table?
Regular readers of the Paramount Business Jets blog will already be very familiar with Aerion and their exploits. The remarkable Aerion AS2 made our list of the 'World's 5 Fastest Private Jets', comfortably holding its own – and even excelling – among the likes of the Gulfstream G650 and the Cessna Citation X. To go shoulder-too-shoulder with giants in the game such as these is no small feat, and clearly helped catch the eye of suitors Boeing.
It's easy to see what attracted Boeing to the Aerion AS2. It's a special aircraft which can fly at speeds of up to Mach 1.4 (yes, you read that correctly) which equates to around 1,000 mph. To put that into context, you'd be flying around 70% faster than you would expect to in a standard business jet. Time saving of that magnitude holds huge pulling power.
Boeing make a 'significant investment'
The specifics of the deal are still uncertain. No finite amount has been released to the media, with Boeing announcing it had made a 'significant investment' in Aerion. But what we can be certain on is what Boeing is planning to contribute to the budding aircraft's development. They'll now provide engineering, manufacturing and flight testing services in the run up to its release. Considering that its current release date is 2023, that's certainly a chunky amount of investment – both financially and in terms of time committed to the project.
But they won't be overhauling the current process. The timeline has remained fixed at 2023, with the new partners in no hurry to enforce a shorter deadline. Plans to incorporate the GE Aviation Affinity engine also remain unchanged. In short, it's still going to be the plane it was destined to be – it just has a new admirer backing it.
Boeing has pedigree — no doubt about it. It's the world's largest aerospace company and has a major influence in the manufacturing of commercial aircraft and defense, security and space systems. Its portfolio boasts autonomous vehicles, hypersonic aircraft and more. It's the top manufacturing exporter in the US and lends its support to over 150 countries. Nobody is doubting their impact.
But cornering the market is far from a sure thing, as there is already some stiff competition out there in the Supersonic Jet marketplace.
In competition with Spike Aerospace's S-512
Spike S-512 (Picture Source: Spike Aerospace)
The Aerion AS2 is not the only Supersonic Jet under development. Several years ago, we reported on Spike Aerospace's proposed S-512 Supersonic Jet, which came with the goal of reducing flying time by up to 50%. Still in development, the S-512 aims to achieve this without creating a loud sonic boom. This would be a huge plus, not just in terms of convenience but to meet current subsonic noise standards. It also has a fuel-efficient design and can carry 18 passengers as Mach 1.6, so the AS2 certainly has its work cut out if it wants to emerge as a frontrunner.
These are important steps which, if done right, could transform the way people travel. Steve Nordlund, Vice President and General Manager of Boeing NeXt, labelled it a "mobility transformation" in a recent interview:
'Boeing is leading a mobility transformation that will safely and efficiently connect the world faster than ever before,' said Mr Nordlund. 'This is a strategic and disciplined leading-edge investment in further maturing supersonic technology.
'Through this partnership that combines Aerion's supersonic expertise with Boeing's global industrial scale and commercial aviation experience, we have the right team to build the future of sustainable supersonic flight.'
A project born in 2003

The word 'sustainable' made for an interesting choice. It's certainly a buzz word in the industry at the moment as attention turns to renewable sources of jet fuel, but it's equally descriptive of the company Boeing is partnering with.
As you may suspect, this is no short-term project. It was founded back in 2003 to break new strides in developing efficient, aerodynamic technologies for this specific type of aircraft. It wasn't until over a decade later, in 2014, that the first AS2 jet designs would be released. And it was a further four years until the engine was announced. Clearly, this is a company that takes calculated, serious steps. Undoubtedly, this methodical approach and the huge amount of time already invested in the project will have been major points that helped convince Boeing to take the plunge.
Naturally, Aerion seem thrilled at the latest developments, which are likely to lead to increased media attention and flexibility in its development.
'Enhancing humanity's productivity and potential'
'Aerion is the industry leader mapping out a successful, sustainable return to supersonic flight,' said Chairman, President and Chief Executive officer of Aerion, Tom Vice. 'The AS2 is the launch point for the future of regulatory-compliant and efficient supersonic flight.
'Together with Boeing, we're creating a faster, more connected future with tremendous possibilities for enhancing humanity's productivity and potential.'
Big words and big ideas are apparent in Mr Vice's words, speaking of an impact on 'humanity's productivity and potential' as opposed to just the aviation industry. There's definitely the feeling that something special is happening between these two companies, and all eyes are now firmly on the 2023 release date.
Excitement has been building for some time about the potential of Supersonic Jet travel. With Boeing entering the game with such significant force, that excitement looks justified. In a few years, we may be looking at travel in a very different way indeed.

Do you enjoy resting by the fire, with a book, preferably on something really soft, cozy and perhaps you even like rocking chairs? Then you most certainly will like the rocking chair by Brendon Gallacher.
Brendon Gallacher has recently presented his amazing rocking chair design. This is not simply a chair, it is a collaboration between design and fashion industry. Gallacher has created this chair in response to request of making a furniture according to fashion style. He has chosen to make one in accordance with Bustle Clothing line, in Toronto, especially inspired by the Fall/Winter 2012 collection.
The resemblance between the rocking chair and the famous designer brand is only symbolic of course. Both are sort of crispy, as mentioned by Gallacher. The materials of choice are solid walnut, wires and upholstered seat. Surprisingly, the chair is both modern and somewhat cozy, looking both stunning and so homey. It would best fit of course the contemporary houses, however could make a center piece perhaps in more old fashioned house as well.

The Last Passover
Marc H. Ellis
This week Jews all over the world celebrate Passover, the ancient festival commemorating the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt. The narrative of liberation is read within the context of food and fellowship. As Jews we are commanded to place ourselves in the original struggle to be free, to experience the suffering and hope of the ancient Israelites as they did, to see this ancient liberation as our own. Despite the plagues and death, the wanderings in the desert and admonishments of God, Passover is a festive holiday. Food and wine is plentiful. Family and friends come together.
How we celebrate our freedom in the past with the complexities of the present is always a challenge. Over time as Jews became free, struggles of other peoples were mentioned in the Seder meal. As a child being raised in the 1950s and 60s, at Passover we incorporated the civil rights struggle into our narrative. In the 1980s and 90s there were specific Passover narratives featuring the struggle of women, freedom movements in Central America and elsewhere. And in some Jewish homes and synagogues, Palestinians were featured as a people struggling for liberation.
There is hope in remembrance applied to the present. If we are in Egypt demanding our freedom, the Passover story accompanies us as we demand freedom now. Freedom is interdependent, across time and community boundaries. No one is truly free if others are not also free.
Today with Israeli helicopter gun-ships daily firing rockets into defenseless Palestinian towns, cities and refugee camps, it is difficult to accept the Passover narrative in its deepest implications. We as Jews are free but is that freedom at the expense of others? If Palestinians are being taught the "lesson" of opposing Israeli power and standing up for their rights and dignity, if the message from the Israeli government to the Palestinian people is surrender or die – a message not unfamiliar to Jews – do we repeat this story at the Passover table?
Most Jews will be silent about the helicopter gun-ships at Passover. Since the beginning of the most recent Palestinian uprising in November, Jewish organizations have placed full-page paid statements in newspapers around the country. They trumpet Israel's desire for peace, call for Jewish unity and castigate Palestinian terrorism and the deficiencies of Palestinian leadership. These statements will continue to be published during the Passover season.
The call for Jewish unity is a caution against Jewish dissent and the dissent of others who see the Passover story as embodying their own struggle today. Should we as Jews celebrate our own liberation while being silent about or even denigrating the Palestinian struggle? Are the helicopter gun-ships guarding Jews in Israel and Jews around the world on these Passover nights? Or are these helicopter gun-ships a symbol of our own need to reconsider the road we as Jews are traveling?
War is war, and in the midst of war few rules of civility are left unbroken. But is the expansion of Israel through settlements, land confiscations, assassination squads and the terror of exploding rockets, a war Jews want to fight, should fight or can be silent about under the guise of unity?
Can we recall the ancient struggle for freedom as our own and praise the violence of Israel as justified? As our own? Or are we, while speaking of our liberation struggle, undermining its essential meaning, that we and all peoples should be free?
During these days of celebration I will remember my first Palestinian friend, Nyaela Ayed, who was murdered in Jerusalem in 1999. A health advocate and planner who studied in the United States and was known by all as a gentle and principled person, I last saw Nyaela in Jerusalem in 1998 and spent many hours speaking to her about her life and the future of her people. I also visited the land her family owned in Jerusalem that Jewish settlers coveted. These settlers were willing to pay large sums of money for a small piece of land that would then forever be removed from Nyaela's family and from her people. The Ayed's refused to sell the land. A short time later, Nyaela was murdered, a single stab wound to the heart, a professional execution.
It was during Passover last year that I learned of her death and visited her mother and sisters one morning in the same home where I had previously visited with Nyaela. In the afternoon, I went to Nyaela's grave just outside of the walls of the old city. In ancient understandings of Islam, those buried there are to be among the first resurrected in the last days. In contemporary Palestinian life Nyaela was designated a martyr, her grave sealed with the love of a grateful people.
This Passover I remember Nyaela and all those Palestinians known and unknown to me. As helicopter gunships reign terror on a defenseless people, I remember the faces and cries of a people whose freedom is integral to my own and to that of my people.
Is this the last Passover that I will celebrate? My heart is not in the celebration this year. And it can never be again until freedom for Jews is also freedom for Palestinians.
What do I answer my children when they ask the simple and difficult questions they are commanded to ask as we gather to tell the story of our origins thousands of years ago? That helicopter gun-ships are like the parting of the sea? That Ariel Sharon is like Moses leading us through the difficult times of the desert and rebellion?
I no longer have the answers to their questions. But I will respond as a Jew in the only way possible today. That the Palestinians are part of our story of liberation and until they are free, we are not.

Understanding Timeshare Law
by Mark Rowe | Jan 20, 2017 | Law
Timeshare law can be complicated, and that's why we advise anybody with a case to avoid going alone. Our timeshare lawyers have undertaken years of training in order to qualify, and have many years experience with poring over timeshare contracts in minute detail. As such, it's not a simple case of reading your contract to find evidence of wrongdoing; understanding timeshare law is not easy. Often, timeshare companies will have used misleading wording or complicated terms, which can be easily overlooked by the naked eye. Timeshare lawyers, on the other hand, know exactly what to look for, what it means, and how to deal with it.
Despite the difficulties in understanding timeshare law, you may still find it useful to learn a little about the background of timeshare law, when relevant laws were made, and what they mean.
The first substantive law applying to timeshare was the UK Timeshare Act 1992, which was subsequently by the Timeshare Holiday Products, Resale and Exchange Contracts Regulations 2010, which was instigated in February 2011.
Directives issued by the European Parliament have been in place since 1997. Though the first Directive was issued in 1994, it did not come into place until 1997, and was then replaced by a second Directive in 2009, which came into effect in 2011.
The reason for issuing the second Directive was that the first Directive was subject to several discrepancies in wording, which were cleared up in the second Directive, that closed any capacity for variations, excepting those relating to enforcement. This means that laws across all countries in the EEA are the same, which allows a much more level playing field and avoids confusion for consumers.
A Law passed in 1999, the Unfair Terms In Customer Contracts Regulations, empowers enforcement authorities to stop contracts that are unfair to consumers. This overlaps with the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977. The Law has since been repealed and replaced with the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which has the function of regulating unfair terms in consumer contracts in English law.
Understanding Timeshare Law is a Job for the Experts
This is just a little background as to some of the laws and directives in the timeshare industry. There are plenty more, all of which our timeshare lawyers know inside out. Keeping tabs on all these developments in timeshare law, and its intricacies, is a large part of our job as lawyers. It just goes to show that there is so much to be considered in a timeshare law case, that it's more than worth engaging a lawyer to handle your litigation.

iRealHousewives | The 411 On American + International Real Housewives: Jules Wainstein Sells Her Apthorp Penthouse For $995K!
Jules Wainstein Sells Her Apthorp Penthouse For $995K!
It's been reported that former Real Housewives of New York City star Jules Wainstein has sold her penthouse apartment at the legendary Apthorp on the Upper West Side for $995,000. The historic property, which is located at 390 West End Ave., has been home to stars like Al Pacino and Nora Ephron, reports the New York Post.
The Wainsteins paid $217,998 for the penthouse in 2011. The one-bedroom unit comes with hardwood floors, arched windows and high ceilings. The listing brokers were Nest Seekers International's Danny Nassi, Charlett Stevenson and Ryan Serhant, and Brown Harris Stevens' Lisa Lippman and Jean Adams, reports the publication.
Last year, a New York City judge ruled that Jules could sell the apartment after her estranged husband Michael failed to pay, among other things, including child support for their two children.
The buyer of the penthouse is listed in city records as Katherine Kong, according to the New York Post.

I was so excited to receive my Les Mills Combat yesterday and couldn't wait to get started! I decided to do the Ultimate Warrior Hybrid workout for the added challenge. I had no idea what I am in for but after doing the Les Mills Combat 30: Kick Start, I got a glimpse of what to look forward to for the next 60 days!
There is not a lot of complex moves in this workout but the intensity is high and challenging. Five minutes in and I was breathless, even though I am very fit. This workout DVD mainly introduces you to the combination moves in a 30-minute non-stop routine.
With moves like uppercuts, jabs, hooks, and roundhouse kicks, your body will definitely be feeling it! There are lots of concentrated upper-body moves designed to strengthen and sculpt your arms, shoulders and upper back.
These are no done slowly either! Imagine doing these moves fast. Now I know the reason behind the name. It kick starts your metabolic burn! That is exactly what we want, isn't it?
There are lots of moves from boxing and karate in the Les Mills Combat 30: Kick Start routine. Controlled but fast and power-packed, I was really feeling it afterwards. Can't wait until tomorrow!
I have no doubt that body transformation will happen over the next 60 days. You go from controlled moves to dynamic power moves and high-speed combinations. I have to get used to that. It was tough! But I loved it!

Code Gate placement looks good, resources/storages at the back is great, and having Hawk on Core-curve is always nice!
Your Hawk looks too close to the front. Since it has 3 range and will primarily be attacking the Evolver, disconnecting it from the Code Gate will still allow it to have the same effective range while also lasting longer, as when an attacker reaches the Scanner their single target programs will hit the Turrets first.
Having same-level Sentries connected together also doesn't do anything for you. While this can be marginally beneficial with different level Sentries, you'd benefit from a faster Sentry spread by splitting them up. While not perfect, attaching one to the Code Gate connection where you disconnected the Hawk would be a small improvement, allowing your Sentry AV to reach the front of your network faster.

NBA Stars Sign Huge Deals
Home » News » NBA » NBA Stars Sign Huge Deals
NBA free agency has been buzzing, and that hasn't stopped yet as we continue to get more and more contract signings and extensions.
Most recently, Kevin Durant signed an extension to stay in Brooklyn for 4 years, $198 million in one of the biggest deals in NBA history. We all know that salary caps and elite player contracts have continued to rise in value over time, but that doesn't make these contracts any less impressive.
Durant will have a couple of new faces on the Nets when he returns from Tokyo to compete with his NBA championship favorite squad.
Durant should have the help of Kyrie Irving and James Harden, two players that struggled with injuries throughout the end of the regular season and the playoffs.
That alone makes them a championship contender, but NBA vets like James Johnson and Patty Mills jumping onboard make this team even scarier in a playoff run. The Nets did lose out on Spencer Dinwiddie, Landry Shamet, and Jeff Green recently, but those players are no surprise and shouldn't have an impact on the core roster outside of Dinwiddie, who we never really thought would play with the Big 3 once they formed. Keep on reading NBA Stars Sign Huge Deals.
TOP #3 Sports Betting Sites to Bet on NBA
Clippers Get Busy
Kawhi Leonard will return to the Clippers, as expected, but the terms of the deal have not been released. This is a sigh of relief for Clippers fans; even if the opt-out was more of a formality, it is never comfortable not having that star locked up. We all have heard stories about the flop-flop nature of NBA free agency at times and the pressure put upon these players to make decisions quickly.
Joining Kawhi and Paul George is Justice Winslow and returning point guard Reggie Jackson, both of whom are looking to show out with Kawhi likely out a while with the knee injury that kept him out of the Clippers' playoff run.
Winslow is an interesting player that has dealt with a bevy of injuries, but he has the ability to play a similar role to Kawhi without the raw scoring prowess that Kawhi has. This is a test run for Winslow, a former top pick and productive NBA player, and I imagine he sees a real role for himself on a playoff team early next season.
Steph Makes History
Steph Curry signed a max extension for the second time and has now landed the biggest deal in NBA history at 4 years, $204 million. Steph was seen as a player in a strange spot entering last year without Klay Thompson, on a lottery team, and coming off of a season where he barely played, but Steph showed why he was a 2-time MVP and was probably a Jokic injury away from making a real case. He was remarkable last season, and clearly, the Warriors are comfortable paying their guy what he has earned for the franchise.
Josh Allen Signs Mega-Deal with Buffalo
Josh Allen had been looking into an extension for a while now, and it finally got done before their agreement to stop negotiating throughout the season. Allen was clear that he wanted to stay in Buffalo, and that is great for the city itself.
Allen wasn't a superstar from the jump, but he has blossomed in the cold winters of Buffalo and become the figurehead of the city. While being a small-market team, the Bills had to always have a bit of concern surrounding their long-term future with Allen. All of that concern was put to rest today.
Allen signed a contract worth up to $258 million over 6 years with a guaranteed $150 million. This makes him the second-highest-paid QB in football per season, only behind half a billion-dollar man Patrick Mahomes. Allen's deal getting done now means that there should be no in-season distractions for the young signal-caller, which is only more reason to have confidence in the Bills this season.

CPSA News: Addressing Industry Changes in the Year Ahead
By saraDecember 27, 2019Connecticut, Top News, Association Talk
Carroll J. Hughes, Executive Director, Connecticut Package Store Association.
By Carroll J. Hughes, Executive Director, CPSA
Excise in Excerpt
The October 1, 2019, start period for the new Connecticut excise tax increase of 10% on wine and liquor has come and gone. The implementation and process from when the tax was passed to when the tax took effect was one that was filled with much confusion among all aspects of the industry.
The Finance Committee of the Connecticut General Assembly came up with the idea of the 10% excise increase on wine and liquor after CPSA had successfully lobbied against having wine and liquor bottles added into the expansion of the bottle bill. The General Assembly then voted and passed the budget at the end of the legislative session, which contained the excise tax. Once the budget had been passed, there was confusion among the state agencies as to who was to implement it, and how.
CPSA in the meantime sent out numerous notices educating members of the change in tax on October 1, and the floor tax that needed to be collected. Throughout the summer and early part of the fall, CPSA members were informed on updates as to how the increase in excise tax would operate.
Nearly every day, the phones at CPSA would ring with questions from non-members asking about the details of the excise tax. Some nonmembers called on October 1 that were unaware altogether that there was a tax going into effect that day. While there was some confusion about getting the forms out to stores from the Department of Revenue Services (DRS), CPSA members were informed every step of the way by the updates that were provided to members. CPSA also helped members navigate the price increases to their products on the shelves of their stores.
In turn, nearly every day an employee of CPSA would be on the phone with a member of DRS, trying to learn how far into the process the agency was into sending store owners the floor tax information. With every new piece of information that CPSA was able to attain, we were informing members every step of the process.
Being a part of CPSA not only helps to keep the alcohol retail industry strong, but it often results in being informed about all ongoing issues in Connecticut that could affect a store owner's business. One thing that the staff of CPSA noticed was the lack of knowledge with nonmembers in regard to regulation or law changes.
In a modern world where brick-and-mortar stores are suffering from online retail shifts, the local package store has become the anchor tenant to many shopping centers. One thing that allows for the package stores to remain as a constant force is being knowledgeable on consumer needs and regulatory changes. Both of those require a store owner to always be on top of the latest information, and being a CPSA member allows for owners to focus strictly on the consumer by allowing CPSA to cover the rest.
Total Wine: Round Three
Total Wine & More is appealing to the United States Supreme Court, the most recent loss in a decision by the federal court in its case against Connecticut on posted prices, discounts and minimum bottle pricing.
After already losing in federal court, this was the next step available to them. The U.S. Supreme Court must agree to hear this case on the appeal out of the hundreds of requests it receives each year.
The Connecticut Package Stores Association will continue to be a part of the opposition in the Total Wine case, along with the Connecticut Wine and Spirits Wholesalers, the Connecticut Restaurant Association and, of course, the State of Connecticut, which has defended the current system regulated by the Department of Consumer Protection.
The CPSA is here to address local industry challenges. Stay informed and become a member today. For more information, visit CPSA online.

Q: Default username for Samba share that is not the user name on the client system When mounting a Samba share the user name is defaulting to the user name from the client machine rather than the "User Name" field from the earlier "Connect to Server" dialogue.
Accessing a Samba share over ssh from Linux with Nautilus where the client user name is "lfm" and the user name on the server system is "lastfirstmiddle":
$ who | awk '{print $1}'
lfm
lfm
$ sudo ssh lastfirstmiddle@example.com -L 445:samba.example.com:445 -L 139:samba.example.com:139 -f -N
[sudo] password for lfm:
lastfirstmiddle@example.com's password:
$ nautilus

The user home share does not exhibit the problem.
The password dialog is using the user name as specified in the "Connect to Server" dialogue as expected:
lfm - File Brower
Location: [/home/lfm]
File>Connect To Server...>

Connect To Server
Service type: [Windows Share]
Server: [localhost]
Share: [lastfirstmiddle]
User Name: [lastfirstmiddle]
Domain Name: [example-com]
<Connect>

Password required for share lastfirstmiddle on localhost
[x]Forget password immediately
Password: [*******]
<Connect>

lastfirstmiddle on localhost - File Browser
Location: [smb://example-com;lastfirstmiddle@localhost/lastfirstmiddle/]

Using the "Connect to Server" dialogue one can get a list of "Windows Shares" by leaving the "Share" field blank.
lastfirstmiddle on localhost - File Browser
File>Connect To Server...>

Connect To Server
Service type: [Windows Share]
Server: [localhost]
Share: []
User Name: [lastfirstmiddle]
Domain Name: [example-com]
<Connect>

Password required for share lastfirstmiddle on localhost
[x]Forget password immediately
Password: [*******]
<Connect>

On localhost - File Brower
Location: [smb://localhost/]

Then select a share and "Open with Open Folder" produces the "Connect to Server" dialog which unlike the previous case defaults the "User name" to the user on the client system. It does not pick up the value used in the "Connect to Server" dialogue that produced the list of shares.
On localhost - File Brower
Location: [smb://localhost/]
----------- ---- ----    -----
Name        Size Type    Date
----------- ---- ----    -----
AShare      --   Folder Unkown
BShare      --   Folder Unkown
CShare      --   Folder Unkown
{{XShare    --   Folder Unkown}}
YShare      --   Folder Unkown
ZShare      --   Folder Unkown
File>Open with Open Folder>

One can use "Connect to Server" and specify a "Bookmark" which can be used later to mount a share without having to compete the "Connect to Server" dialog each time. To have access to all six shares listed above (ABCXYZ) one would need to create six bookmarks. This might be OK for six shares but if there are dozens of shares this would be a bit obnoxious.
Is there a way to change the default user name to something other than the client system's user name?

A: You might be using share-level security (security = share) in your smb.conf file.  In share-level security, Samba uses the share name as the username for the connection and does not ask for a username in the protocol.  This is basically how Window 98 worked.  You probably want security = user and you will need a proper smbpasswd file as well as Samba can't use the normal UNIX password database (/etc/passwd or /etc/shadow).  Use smbpasswd -a lfm to add a new user for lfm and set it's password, set security = user in smb.conf and restart Samba.
