Oh, 2014, parting is such sweet sorrow. That's because it was a stellar year for art, dance, comedy, architecture, and all-around culture in metro Phoenix. In no particular order, these are the best things I saw.
Contemporary dance can be arduous and, honestly, kind of boring, but CONDER/dance's annual festival of movement is ideal both for fans of the style and for those who aren't necessarily taken with the seemingly loosey-goosey art form. Among my favorites at Breaking Ground 2014 were an expressive, prop-smart piece with juggled oranges from Kristopher Pourzal, who went on to be a Big Brain Award finalist, and an underwater-inspired piece, which featured a sculpture by Pete Deise and vintage bathing suits, choreographed by event organizer Carley Conder. Conder immersed attendees in dance, presenting performances outside Tempe Center for the Arts and throughout the lobby -- in addition to nearly 20 onstage. It was engaging and exciting and put a much-deserved spotlight on emerging Phoenix-area dancers.
Thanks in no small part to Chelsea Peretti's role on Fox's Brooklyn Nine-Nine and her going "wolf mode" (a term Peretti uses for getting intense and typing in all caps on Twitter), the comedian's star is on the rise. That's partly why it was so cool to catch her set at Stand Up Live while she was on the road finalizing material for her Netflix special, One of the Greats. However, the finished special, shot in San Francisco, doesn't feature one of the most memorable moments of her Phoenix set: when she dissed a fellow New Times writer for wearing a straw boater hat to the show.
There's something exciting about a fresh coat of paint. In the case of Paint PHX, it was quite a few fresh coats. The event brought muralists from across the country to Phoenix's arts hubs Roosevelt Row, Grand Avenue, and Calle 16. Participating painters were a who's who list of creatives to watch, including Thomas "Breeze" Marcus, JB Snyder, Jeff Slim, Tato Caraveo, and La Muñeca. They banded together and engaged with local businesses to secure wall space for artwork and the result was a collaborative community event that brought creativity and expression to the fore. It was a banner weekend for street art in Phoenix and it left the city looking better than ever.
Phoenix Film Festival brought a lineup of stellar flicks to Harkins Scottsdale 101 in 2014, and Obvious Child was my favorite. Gillian Robespierre's directorial debut, which, yeah, is a romantic comedy that includes an abortion, echoed Woody Allen's style and Nora Ephron's sweetness, and featured a breakout performance from Jenny Slate. More than any movie I can think of, this one looked and felt and sounded like a genuine representation of Millennial women with true-to-life dialogue and a hilarious lady-child performance from Slate. She carries the film's drama and jokes, building a character that's frustrating, delightful, and believable -- human.
It bears repeating: Phoenix Fashion Week 2014 was the best incarnation of the event yet. The three-day runway event presented work from mega-talented designers from around the world and showcased Arizona's fashion scene like never before. Ditching the hobbyists so frequently featured in the past, Fashion Week organizers brought quality and discerning taste to the fore. From denim purveyor Diego Milano and Hues of Ego's high-fashion drama to Chandler native Carol Wong's futuristic armor and Kismet's sleek gowns, there was plenty of evidence that Phoenix's take on fashion isn't some passing fad. It's becoming a stylish city to watch.

A major and much-needed departure from Phoenix Art Museum's recent spate of slightly boring and often traveling exhibitions, "Vanitas: Contemporary Reflections on Love and Death from the Collection of Stéphane Janssen" pools the Arizona-via-Belgium art collector's works centering on visual representations of life's futility. Seventy-four works including sculpture, photography, and paintings contextualize contemporary use of such visual tropes as skulls (also popular in black plague-era works) in relation to both Latin American Day of the Dead culture and the AIDS epidemic. Sounds like a drag, sure, but it's one of the most visually compelling and emotionally moving exhibitions of recent memory.
In 2014, Halt Gallery came to a bit of a, well, halt. The mobile curating project, headed up by Becky Nahom and Julia Bruck didn't call it quits. Instead, Halt laid down roots, opening a pop-up shipping container gallery along Roosevelt Row, next to Greg Esser's Hot Box. The new space will bring in contemporary works from both locals and artists across the country. Its inaugural exhibition was a bird-watching safari installation, complete with binoculars and a guide to avian life, from Sarah Hurwitz. "The Jungle Box" set the tone for Halt's new space, one that's sure to be a must-see First and Third Friday stop for the foreseeable future.
Phoenix Financial Center's tower and two rotundas are among Phoenix's most interesting architectural gems. Those lucky enough to score very limited tickets to Modern Phoenix's Night of Neutra got an inside look at the recently gorgeously restored and gently updated south rotunda, now home to design firm Shepley Bulfinch. The event centered on the designation of Richard Neutra and Robert Alexander's Painted Desert Community Complex as a national treasure. Goes to show that Modern Phoenix is more than just a home tour -- it's making an impact on architecture and preservation in Arizona.
A location for Changing Hands Bookstore in Phoenix proper was long rumored -- and wanted and dreamed of. In May, the store became a reality at The Newton. The shopping complex is an adaptive reuse project built on the former site of Beef Eater's, a storied restaurant whose history is visible in The Newton's reuse of its booths, massive fireplaces, and chandeliers, among other ephemera. It's also home to Southern Rail, Southwest Gardener, which has more space than ever to host hands-on workshops, and First Draft, a bar where bookishness and booze collide inside Changing Hands. Dreamy, indeed.
Take visual and performing artists, a range of media, and a boutique hotel and what do you get? ARTELPHX. Hosted by The Clarendon in the spring and fall, ARTEL has presented exciting new works from artists including Daniel Funkhouser, Denise Yaghmourian, and Matthew Mosher. Creatives take over rooms throughout the hotel, using them as singular exhibition and performance spaces for everything from dance and photography showings to interactive neon wonderlands, singing screens, and art selfies. It has brought together artists who might've never interacted otherwise, and attendees eager to become their fans.


An unusual and exciting product that combines all the fun elements of dancing flames, shimmering water, floating fish, magical stars, blooming flowers, fluffy clouds and visual auras into one single system. With the element of surprise, users become captivated with the interactive floor.
The Interactive Floor System is unusual, exciting, and modern. It not only reacts in real time, but in a unique way can create and send powerful messages by way of advertising, brand re-enforcement and establishing corporate identity.
Imagine for a moment, if you will, walking into a fish restaurant, over a swimming pool filled with shimmering water, goldfish swimming through the water and over the restaurant´s logo. Then, as you walk you see ripples in the water, hear the sounds of your footsteps and see the fish darting away from your feet. This is all possible at the same time with the Interactive Floor System using our AdVis 2.1 Interactive software.
Similarly, if you place this system into a corporate function, guests can walk over the pool and corporate logo at the beginning of the event, but part way through the scene changes and the system presents something else — creating a dance floor that is always affected by the dancer´s movements or an interactive game that engrosses the users attention.
Each effect is completely configurable, you can insert your own backgrounds, logos, videos, sounds, settings etc. very easily using built in configuration dialogues that are extremely easy to use. This enables you to create an unlimited number of unique effects as well as having an unlimited amount of different advertisers on one floor.
All you need to complete an interactive projection system is a PC and projector. We also highly recommend a light coloured floor (ideally white) for maximum impact and it is imperative that existing ambient light is controlled so as not to detract from the overall projection.


You should always consult your solicitor to draw a will properly, it will save your loved ones time and money after your death.
There are formal requirements that must be met for a will to be valid. If the formal requirements are not met, the Supreme Court may still approve the will, but this leads to a great deal of unnecessary cost.
You must have an executor. It's important to always inform your nominated executor that you want them to hold that position and to tell them where the will is, which you can keep in our deed safe.
Marriage automatically revokes a will unless the will specifically states that it is made in contemplation of your marriage.
A divorce after making a will revokes any gift to your former spouse.
A will may not cover how assets such as superannuation, life insurance policies are distributed. You should get advice about these issues when you have a will drawn.
If you don't make a will then your assets may not be distributed in the manner you wish. The law sets out a strict regime for distributing assets of a person who dies without leaving a valid will (intestate).
A Testamentary trust is a trust that is set out in your will. It is usual to nominate a trustee in your will (it is often the executor who is made the trustee but it does not have to be). A testamentary trust can be used if you do not want to make a gift outright to someone in your will but you want them to have the benefit of the property or the income from it. The Trust will own the property and your Trustee must deal with the property in the manner you have set out in the will. This can arise in many circumstances, particularly if you want to make provision for a person suffering from a disability.
A testamentary trust may in some circumstances provide taxation benefits and can also protect property from falling into a bankrupt's estate. A testamentary trust is not required in all circumstances and you should take professional advice on this issue when you are having your will drawn up.
These are very important documents and you need proper advice before signing them. You should consult your solicitor to ensure they are tailored to your individual need and wishes. They give you a choice as to who manages your affairs if you are no longer capable of doing it yourself, rather than those decisions being made by a government department. You will have the security of knowing that person(s) you trust will be able to act for you and look after your affairs.
An Enduring Guardian gives the added security that the guardian you nominate will be able to make lifestyle decisions for you if you are no longer capable of doing so. This can include decisions as to what health care you need. An enduring guardian can only be used if you have lost your capacity to make your own decisions. You can include in an Enduring Guardian, or in separate documents, an "advanced directive" or "living will" which tells your guardians of your wishes should you suffer from a terminal illness or be in a vegetative state. They can set out your wishes as to what treatment you want or whether or not you want to be provided with life sustaining measures if you are incapable of expressing you own views to your loved ones and doctors at that time.
A power of attorney can also be used in the same circumstances as an enduring guardian but, depending upon your needs, can be tailored to meet other requirements, such as if you have a physical disability or if you are out of the country for a period of time. It can also be used to ensure that provision is made for loved ones that depend upon you for support.
If you have been left out of a will or if you believe you have been treated unfairly by a will, you may have a claim against the estate of the deceased. These types of claims are called Family Provision claims and are usually decided by the Supreme Court.
Time limits apply and only certain classes of person have the right to apply.
If you are successful the Court can order the executor of the estate to make provision for you or further provision from the assets of the estate.
These claims can be very stressful to all parties concerned and a dispute that has to be decided by a court can reduce the assets available to all parties. Compulsory mediation to try and resolve these disputes before they get to Court will take place. We always encourage alternative dispute resolution and we can guide you through this and any ensuing court hearing if necessary.
Thank you for your inquiry regarding Wills and Estates. A member from Armstrongs Solicitors will contact you shortly.


Steven White was accepted to both the U.S. Naval and Air Force academies.
HARKER HEIGHTS, Texas — A senior at Harker Heights High School weighed his future options after recently receiving two military appointments, one to the United States Naval Academy and the other to the United States Air Force Academy.
"My father also served in the United States Navy and also in the United States Army for a total of 20 years," Steven White said.
Gregory White said he doesn't have the words to express how proud he is of his son.
"I am proud of my little boy," he said. "I see this man in front of me now. Pride doesn't say it. Pride doesn't encapsulate what my feelings are towards him now."
In addition to his work in the classroom, Steven White is also a member of the JROTC Academic Team, Physical Training Team and Orienteering Team.
He's also on the Harker Heights student council.
When asked what he hopes his son learns when he begins his military career, Gregory White became emotional.
"I'm giving my country my boy and that's a big deal to me," he said. "I want him to learn everything I didn't so he can get some stars on his chest, so he can run this country. That's what I want him to do."
Steven White said he studies and trains to prepare himself for when he may need to help a fellow airman, solider or sailor, should they need him.
He said he wants his classmates to be selfless and believe in things bigger than themselves as they approach graduation.
"If you find a reason to push yourself that isn't based off yourself," Steven White said. "Then you can push yourself to incredibly high heights. To previous heights you didn't know before."

Blog Weekly Roundups Collaborations and the new habits - WR #140
Collaborations and the new habits - WR #140
Music and Tech are still at it this week; from our online habits and the main platforms getting into discussion, let's see what has been the highlight these last few days
#1. New online habits are raising alarms
This week, an interesting take from Lyor Cohen (Global Head of Music at YouTube) caught my attention. The main point of the discussion was the fact that short videos are hurting younger audiences and the development of artists. None is being cited, but you get the idea.
Now, with such platforms ruling the Social Media ecosystem, it sure means that we lose a lot of energy on content creation and / or consuming endless feeds of videos. Artists are struggling to do everything at once and mental health has never been so much spoken about in our field. But one of the issues would be the fact that content consumption doesn't lead to a strong engagement through these platforms (which I'd agree is debatable); when YouTube uses Shorts to get to watching longer videos, TikTok is stopping too early. And apparently it's not helping with artists' development.
But let's not completely reject the situation that we're in. Rejecting everything in our habits online today (ours or what we speculate younger generations' will be) would mean replicating the usual pattern of music against tech. Not to say that we should let everything roll uncontrollably, but there's discussions to have to make sure that the endgame is fair for everyone.
#2. Universal Music Group gets shares in [PIAS]
The Major acquired 49% of one of the most well-known independent record labels this week: [PIAS] Group. This follows a previous partnership put in place last year between the two companies.
The deal is a great illustration of the collaboration between Majors and independents. Even though Universal is now more present, [PIAS] is said to keep operating fully independently and won't change its methods. To explain the move, [PIAS] founders stated: "These days we are competing with tech and financial giants who do not value the cultural importance of the artists and labels we work so hard for, but rather see music merely as an 'asset class' to be ruthlessly exploited in exchange for a quick return".
#3. FUGA is partnering with Insomniac Music Group
Another example of major music companies collaborating is the recent partnership between FUGA and Insomniac Music Group. Through this collaboration sync, distribution and marketing will be taken under FUGA's umbrella, while they'll benefit from engagement and data analytics.
#4. Concord is on its way to seal major deal with Apollo
Concord is going to be one of the largest music companies to get into the financial bonds with Apollo Global Management selling a $1,65 bn bond. Which is backed by music rights from Concord's catalog. This redefines publishing rights and recorded music rights, securitizing the company for the first time. Music rights speculations are still going strong!
#5. It's that time of year again
Yup, you're seeing Spotify Wrapped coming from everywhere, there's no escape. In addition to the yearly statistics of your Instagram follows, The Verge has been looking at the global numbers for the platforms. Turns out, music is being streamed more than ever before, and you bet that these little insights are icing on the cake to engage their users. Apple Music and Deezer also came up with their retrospectives on the year to keep up with the trend (but there's still some work to do).

uQR.me > uQR.me QR Codes & O2O Marketing Blog > Mobile marketing > The Best QR Code Generator Software: How Should You Choose It In 2017? Free Or Not?
Google Chrome QR Code Reader. Have You Tried It Already?
So, you're ready to jump on the QR code bandwagon. You've got ideas for your call-to-action, a strategy and, most importantly, a purpose; it's time to search for the best QR code generator online. You Google for it and… you get endless results. *Sigh* What now?
First and foremost, we'll be focusing on the best online QR code generator. Although there are mobile apps that allow you to create QR codes as well as QR code maker softwares for PC, online generators can be used on any device, at the office or on the go, due to their cloud-based nature.
Secondly, the best QR code generator should meet all your needs. By this we mean that whatever project you have in mind that requires the use of QR codes, a generator should adapt to it. The more options a QR code generator has right from the get go, the better experience you will have.
With a QR code generator you can create QR codes. No surprise there. But it's the ability to generate dynamic ones that makes a platform truly stand out from the rest.
Dynamic QR codes allow you to change the content of your QR code as many times as you want without having to reprint it. They have a unique URL that automatically redirects users to their current content after scanning them.
Say, for example, you start off by linking your QR code to your website and at a later time, you want to set it to your Facebook profile. This can be easily achieved via dynamic QR codes.
The QR codes you want to avoid, on the other hand, are the so called static QR codes. Once the content is set, it can't be changed. More on the difference between the static and dynamic QR codes here.
Speaking of content, QR codes can be linked to any type of digital media. From the most common use such as a URL to a vCard, from a YouTube video to a Google Map, the choice should always be there.
The best dynamic QR code generator out there has to have all these options and more. Remember, a QR code generator has to adapt to you and not the other way around.
Social Network: Connect your Facebook, Twitter or Google+ accounts to your QR code for people to follow you. Get likes, tweets and +1's by enabling the widget of your chosen social network.
As if that weren't enough, the best QR code generators are completely ad-free. The user won't have to go through an advertisement right before reaching your specific content.
QR codes are not that appealing to the eye. In fact, they may just well pass for another barcode on a packaging. That is why it is important to know that QR codes can be customized.
A good QR code generator comes equipped with beautifying options that can make your QR code's appearance a lot more attractive. You can opt to change the code's color scheme, round its corners and even add your own logo right in the middle of it.
As a side note, the looks of a QR code can also attract the attention of young ones. A generator for teachers and schools is a great way to promote new ways in which students can learn while being actively involved with the technology.
Beautifying your QR code will attract more scans while boosting your brand identity. It is a great feature to look out for when in search of the best QR code generator app.
After having your QR code customized, it's time to download it, add it to your graphic design/packaging and print it. In order to do so, it is imperative to export the QR code as a vector image file with the best printing quality.
These files (EPS, PDF, SVG) differ drastically from raster images (JPG, PNG). The latter formats have limited resolution since they are meant to be used only on digital platforms. Vector image files, on the other hand, can be resized to fit any particular surface without losing quality.
Much like the aforementioned customization tools, the QR code generator you choose to use must provide various export options in order to increase the ways in which you can apply your QR codes.
From all the features we've discussed, tracking your QR code's statistics has to be the most important as it will give you a complete understanding of how your QR code endeavor is working out. In other words, you should look for a generator with tracking capabilities.
The data retrieved can easily pinpoint whether or not your QR code is actually being scanned, how many times, by whom, from where and much more. The stats can also help you determine if the call-to-action needs to be revised.
QR code generators in general may have a way to gather this information but only the best ones offer all of the filters cited above plus geo-localization and means to connect said data with other platforms such as Google Analytics.
The Mobile Page redirecting option is one of the most robust types of QR content you can find. It basically allows you to create your own custom-made page which can only be accessed after scanning your QR code.
The tools that you'll have at your disposal range from generator to generator. The best one, however, not only enables you to insert text, links, images, etc., but also comes equipped with an HTML editor to customize your landing page even further. If you want yours to really get the attention of your audience, this feature is a must.
Affordability: QR code generators offer several plans that accommodate to ones budget. From free subscriptions that offer limited albeit powerful functionalities to full-on complete packages that include everything we've discussed.
Management: Having over a thousand QR codes to track sounds stressful… and it definitely is. That is why QR code management is crucial. The best generators offer ways in which you can organize your QR codes in different folders/projects/campaigns (acronyms depend on the actual platform). If you have multiple marketing campaigns, each with their own set of QR codes, having the possibility to manage them in such way will relieve from that initial stress.
QR code managers; the natural evolution of a QR code generator. Managers allow you to basically become a QR code maker.
This quote comes from a previous article in which we examine the differences between a QR code generator and a QR code manager.
What really matters here aside from the bells and whistles, is that a QR code generator/manager has to get you covered. Not to mention, if you were to encounter any particular problem using the platform, someone should be there to support you; yet one more thing to have in mind.
Are YOU ready to try before you buy?
Sign up to one of our 14 day trials or to our FREE plan and start tracking your first QR code.
This is awesome! Exactly what we need for our growing business–outstanding customer service and great product.
Wow, that was well written. You answered all my questions and then some I didn't even know I had. I will try your generator out.

"Michael Brandt remembered for compassion, skill as electrical engineer and musician" In The Daily Orange
For the record (DO article, local PDF), a quality write-up about Mike Brandt just posted in The Daily Orange, with thanks to Michael Sessa for the remote gumshoeing.
"You put a bass and a keyboard in front of him and he turned into Geddy Lee, without the vocals," Allis said.
This is 100% true, although Mike took many more solos. F3 did a cover of Peter Gabriel's D.I.Y., for which one of us "not-Sean" had to do vocals – this meant I had to do vocals. For the other story in the article, "ransacking" may have been a slightly overly-dramatic description of the event that I also fondly remembered in the other post.
Interviews become stories, stories become tales, tales become legend.
One of the other parts to that theft story was the police escort to the house where the gear had been stashed. The drums and two guitars were taken from Mike's house despite there being a keyboard, a bass, another bass, a Chapman Stick, and all kinds of amps and processors and the like in tripping distance – being trained musicians, this struck us all as kind of "Obviously you're not a golfer" odd. Sean and I did our best not to goose Mike about where in the musical guitar-bass-drums trinity his visitor thought his 4-strings-is-less-than-6 avocation fell.
An… austere version of one of these..
The eclectic sampling from Mike's abode made a little more sense on sight of the rest of the stash. The visitor had, among other items in his collection, several huge Igloo coolers (not the free-with-complementary-siding-estimate size, but the kind medium-build folks could hide in), a mini trail bike that I believe I heard was stolen from the Mr. 2nd's Bargain Outlet on Erie Blvd., and 50 pairs of fireman boots – all proof that, when you do (certainly the wrong) drugs, you're not in your best state of mind.
The Methodist Bells And Colin Phils – Highlights Of Sub Rosa Session #32 At Subcat Studios, 21 August 2016
Posting for historical purposes, given the great recording and video that came from the session.
The Methodist Bells (bandcamp facebook) had the pleasure of performing a 3/4 set on Sunday, August 21st at (my first drum teacher, Ron Keck's) Subcat Studios for Sub Rosa Session #32. Closing for the Bells (well, I think it's funny) was recently-US-returned-and-immediately-thereafter-Binghamton-bound Colin Phils (bandcamp facebook), who put on a fantastic trio show (and, with one of the wooden USBs in tow, I can say that their previous two albums are excellent as well).
"The band. The band. THE BAND!" Adam, me, Leah, Clem, Jeremy, et Maurice.
Alice In The Sky, featuring an Allis On The Ground
With thanks to Amanda Rogers for organizing, Subcat, The Rebel 105.9 (we don't get it in Rochester, though), The Syracuse New Times, D.I.T. Records, and my current contributing writer hosters at syracuse.com for making the session and recording possible, a video work-up of "Alice In The Sky" is provided below for your viewing and listening pleasure (courtesy youtube.com).
On day two of an 11-hour jet lag, hadn't played in a month, stuck behind a poorly-left-ified kit, and still sound good.
The Colin Phils tune "Don Cabs" is included below. I was (admittedly) ready to sneak out early, but ended up staying for the whole set (that's musician-speak for "great show").
Our fearless leader Clem Coleman (twitter facebook) was featured in a recent Daily Orange article, in which I make my third (known) appearance in the DO ever since starting at SU in 1994.

on your trailer will mean that you will no longer have to bend down and lift the coupling as far to get it onto the tow ball. A jockey wheel will also make moving an un-hitched trailer by hand much easier, and it will keep your trailer level so it can be loaded while un-hitched.
Erde supply two types of jockey wheels, a lightweight version for smaller trailers and a heavy version for the commercial range. The commercial jockey wheel has a heavy duty bracket that is designed to support the weight of larger commercial trailers with A-frame draw bars. Unlike the lightweight version, this bracket mounts on the inside of the A-frame drawbar just behind the coupling.
The heavy duty bracket and bigger wheel make this a much stronger alternative to the lightweight jockey wheel.

Last time the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns traveled to the state of Texas, the date was Sept. 4, 2021. They fell 38-18 in Austin to Texas that afternoon, but that dejected feeling would become foreign for the next 378 days.
But in Louisiana's first trip to the Lone Star State since, the Ragin' Cajuns suffered a fate which they had not witnessed in over a calendar year — a loss. The Rice Owls sucked the life out of the Ragin' Cajun offense and slid past the reigning Sun Belt champions in a 33-21 decision, officially concluding the longest win streak in the FBS at 15 games.
"That's a quality football team on the other sideline," Rice head coach Mike Bloomgren said. "They had the nation's longest winning streak. They lost to Texas in the opener last year and hadn't lost since. There's a lot of things that happened in my life since that day. That's a big time win for our program."
The story of the night was the emergence of the Rice defense, and the 21 points allowed was certainly deceiving. Seven of those points stemmed from a 54-yard pick-six return by cornerback Caleb Anderson in the first quarter. An additional seven came in part thanks to favorable field position following an interception by defensive end Nijel McGriff, who set Louisiana up 17 yards away from the end zone. Essentially, Rice's defense only allowed one full scoring drive the entire game, but that drive didn't come to fruition until under 10 minutes remained in the contest.
Overall, the Owl defense allowed just 175 yards to the Ragin' Cajuns, marking Louisiana's lowest output since September 2011. Under first-year head coach Michael Desormeaux, the team entered the contest averaging 430 yards through two games, but the Owls smothered any sliver of momentum Louisiana attempted to generate.
"They came out a little sluggish and we came out full speed," Dunbar. "We didn't take our foot off the gas pedal the whole time."
Rice stifled 3-of-11 third down opportunities and both fourth down attempts from the Ragin' Cajuns, limiting quarterbacks Chandler Fields and Ben Wooldridge to a collective 13 completions on 28 passes — thanks to a handful of pressures by defensive end Ikenna Enechukwu and great coverage by cornerback Jordan Dunbar.
"I felt like our guys were in the backfield all night long," Bloomgren said. "I felt like I was always seeing (defensive tackle) Blake Boenisch, Ikenna, (defensive tackle) Izeya Floyd all night long in their backfield — making plays, pulling the runner back. I thought our linebackers closed on some stuff great. It was just fun to be a part of."
Perhaps the only greater statement win of the Bloomgren era was Dec. 5, 2020 when it intercepted AP-ranked No. 15 Marshall five times in a 20-0 shutout win. But this time, Rice faced a Louisiana team on a 7-game stretch without committing a turnover. While free safety George Nyakwol an interception within five minutes of kickoff, the Owls defense found a more sustainable way to shut down Louisiana by recording stop after stop.
"It was real energizing for all of us once we got those stops," cornerback Jordan Dunbar said. "After the first one, they just kept piling on. As Coach (Brian) Smith was telling us, keep that foot on the gas pedal. We had so much energy. On the d-line, linebackers, secondary, everything was working well together."
Quarterback TJ McMahon made his second collegiate start Saturday, filling in for Wiley Green who suffered in an injury in the opener at USC. Last week, McMahon shined with 274 yards and four touchdowns without an interception. This time, the quarterback faced initial adversity by tossing three interceptions in the first half. But he responded with poise. Coming out of the break down 14-13, McMahon connected on 10 of his 12 second half attempts for 148 yards and two touchdowns.
"TJ's a really interesting personality," Bloomgren said. "He's got a lot of confidence and it oozes from him to the rest of our team. Nobody on our team ever lost hope or doubted for a second. We wanted him to play better and we encouraged him. What you saw in the second half was an outstanding performance by TJ."
McMahon demonstrated fantastic rapport with his roommate wide receiver Luke McCaffrey. They both shared the quarterback room last fall, but McCaffrey transitioned to wide receiver this offseason. Still, the McMahon to McCaffrey connection looked like it had been in force for years. With McMahon in the pocket, McCaffrey enjoyed his best showing as in his new position, securing 10 receptions for 105 yards and two touchdowns — a toe-tapping sideline catch in the second quarter and a snag in the middle of the end zone in the fourth to hand Rice a 27-14 lead.
"The kid's just a hard worker and he wants everything to be dialed in — so attention-to-detail," McMahon said. "As soon as he turned to receiver, he was talking to all the quarterbacks and said, 'Hey what can we throw? I want to be dialed in. I want to make a difference here.' He and I were on the same schedule going into the offseason and even in the summertime. We are roommates so we're just talking about when we're gonna throw, watch film together — building that connection and chemistry."
When Louisiana running back Chris Smith shed several tacklers to give the Ragin' Cajuns their first points of the second half, Rice's offense needed a response to keep the game in control. The Owls did just that, starting off with an explosive 32-yard pass to Kobie Campbell and finishing by exhausting time and pounding the rock. When running back Ari Broussard punched the ball into the end zone, Rice enjoyed a two-score lead with under three minutes remaining.
On that drive Campbell became one of four Owls to record a catch longer than 20 yards Saturday night, attaining Bloomgren's preseason goal of producing more explosive plays.
"I think we knew this was our deepest team we had, also our most explosive team," Bloomgren said. "When you got the line that can protect, the backs that will protect, TJ that delivers that ball, that's just a recipe for success. We've worked a long time to get this number of healthy guys who could run and catch the ball at the receiver position, and gosh, we're there."
By ending Louisiana's 15-game streak, Rice notched its first FBS non-conference win since 2015 when it knocked off Army. At 2-1, it is also the first time the Owls have locked up a .500 or better non-conference record since that season. After back-to-back promising victories at home, Bloomgren believes this win can blossom into something special for the bowl-hopeful Owls.
"There's a lot of people in this program that have worked really hard for a long time to get a 'W' like this," Bloomgren said. "I really do believe this is just the beginning."


Another big American city is having 'Detroit' problems. And may soon follow Detroit down the Road to Serfdom. The warning signs are all there. But will this big American city—Chicago—listen? Well, Chicago like Detroit is a big Democrat city. So, no. They will not heed the warning signs. And will make things even worse by going more 'Detroit' (see Chicago Votes to Go the Way of Detroit by Michael Auslin posted 2/6/2014 on National Review).
Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel is increasingly a textbook example of how far the Democratic party has moved to the left since Bill Clinton's day.
That may be true now, but surely Emanuel knows that Illinois's and Chicago's high tax rates are causing a business exodus. The Chicago Tribune recently highlighted ten major companies threatening to leave Illinois and the Chicago area, including the Chicago Board of Trade, U.S. Cellular, and CME Group, the world's biggest futures exchange company. Part of Chicago's problem is being stuck in Illinois, which has the country's third-highest unemployment rate, a dysfunctional state government, and crippling taxes that have led over 30 companies to cross over the state line to Indiana recently. But Chicago's own borrowing and profligate pension promises will continue to eat away at its credit rating and desirability of doing business there. All this will help hollow out the city and its tax base, and eventually could lead to an all-too-familiar downward spiral once the productive elements of the city decide the benefits of staying don't outweigh the costs of moving.
Of course the reason why Emanuel is throwing Chicago into this black hole of debt is because he is a Democrat. And that's how Democrats win elections. By buying votes. With a lot of good-paying jobs in the public sector. Jobs with generous benefits. Especially in retirement. Thanks to profligate pension promises. Requiring a large portion of city taxes to go to pay these underfunded pension obligations. That are so underfunded they need to borrow money in addition to those high taxes to meet those pension obligations.
This is exactly what happened in Detroit. The massive cost of their public sector became harder and harder to pay for. So they began to fleece businesses as much as they could. With higher taxes, fines, fees, regulations, etc. Which only chased businesses out. Making their problem worse. For they never cut their spending. Even though half of their tax base had disappeared they still tried to spend as if their tax base never shrunk from its high in the Sixties. And we see where that led to. Bankruptcy. Something Chicago is now flirting with. And a fate they will share if they don't cut back their spending to what they can support without fleecing businesses out of the city.
Posted in Big City Problems, Deficit/Debt/Spending, Week in Review - Comments Off on Is Chicago the Next Detroit?
Britain's aging population and her vast welfare state is making government very expensive per taxpayer. As the tax base shrinks and people live longer into retirement state pensions and the National Health Service are consuming an ever larger percentage of the available pot of money. Forcing the taxing authorities to get more money from each individual taxpayer. Especially the wealthy. Who are paying confiscatory tax rates to make up for that shrinking tax base. So these people use every law in the tax code to minimize their tax liability. Which the taxing authority strongly objects to. As they want rich people to submit and pay. No matter the amount they must pay (see Britain plans to name, shame 'cowboy' tax advisers by William James posted 8/12/2013 on Reuters).
Tax avoidance schemes seek legal ways to reduce tax bills for companies or wealthy individuals. But some which take advantage of complex ownership structures, often involving overseas tax havens, are illegal.
The new policy would empower Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) to name the so-called high risk tax advisers it considers to be promoting schemes which are deliberately opaque and likely to be hiding illegal activity.
Despite tax avoidance schemes being legal and the fact that only some people may be breaking the law the taxing authority will shame tax advisors who help their clients to not willingly submit and pay. No matter how high those tax rates get. Of course it's nothing new in Britain. For they have a record of excessively taxing some of their people.
The British Americans, for example. But in the 1700s it was the cost of world war that they were trying to pay off. Today it's the cost of their massive welfare state they're trying to fund. Of course, that war debt may have lost the American colonies. But it built an empire that lasted for a century. So that war debt could be looked at as an investment into the future of all British people. Unlike the cost of the welfare state. Where it is just generational theft. For those taxes today pay for obligations from the past. Which doesn't invest into the future of all British people. But discounts their future.
President Obama has posted the largest deficits in history. Exceeding $1 trillion dollars. In every year of his first term. Exceeding Ronald Reagan's maximum deficit of $452.67 billion (adjusted for inflation). Exceeding George H.W. Bush's maximum deficit of $474.51 billion. Exceeding Bill Clinton's highest deficit of $404.92 billion. And exceeding George W. Bush's maximum deficit of $501.21 billion. President Obama's average deficit is twice the highest of the 4 previous presidents. Is anyone a more irresponsible spender than President Obama (see Michigan Gov. Snyder to Appoint Detroit Emergency Manager by Marilisa Sachteleben posted 3/1/2013 on Yahoo! News)?
On March 1, Gov. Snyder made the call and announced that Detroit would be getting an emergency manager.
Well, we have the answer to our question. Detroit is.
To put this into perspective let's compare the federal government to Detroit. With total federal outlays about $3.8 trillion the federal deficit is about 26.3% of total outlays. Under the 2012-13 budget Detroit will spend approximately $1.12 billion. Making the real deficit about 83.7% of total outlays. Is it any wonder the City of Detroit will be getting an emergency manager?
The problem with Detroit is that they're still spending money like they have a population of 1.8 million (their peak). The tax base is long gone but spending obligations for pension and health care for retirees are still there. Why did this happen? Detroit became one of the most unfriendly places to do business. High taxes, including a city income tax, and exceptionally high regulatory costs chased the jobs out of Detroit. And with those jobs went the people. The tax base. An object lesson of what liberal Democrat policies gone wild can do to a city.

They salvaged under the kitchen sink and in recycling bins, and now some Calgarians are using what they found to spread the word on sustainable fashion.
People with the Humainologie non-profit group are turning trash into wearable items for an event they're calling Garbage Couture.
"The clothes that we're going to be wearing at the event are not clothes that we're suggesting people head out on the town in," Humainologie CEO Salima Stanley-Bhanji said.
Among the items being created for the event is a dress made of a plastic garbage bag, decorated with things like a used toothpaste tube, bottle caps and cut up dish washing gloves.
"In the fast fashion industry, it's really easy to dispose of an item and not really think about it," Humainologie's Quinn Lazenby said. "So we want to showcase the waste and make people realize how much they're actually polluting."
The Garbage Couture event happens between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. on both Saturday, July 20 and Sunday, July 21 at the Humainologie store and gallery at 1514 7th St. SW in Calgary.
"When we think about recycling and the environment, we don't really think about our fashion choices," Humainologie's Jaden Tsan said. "It's important to bring attention to that."
Tsan and Lazenby were working together to create headbands adorned with discarded water bottles and pop cans, hoping they'll encourage people to think twice before throwing their unwanted clothes in the garbage.
"Things like taking it to (a) consignment (store) or a charity bin or maybe organizing a clothing swap with some of your friends."
Stanley-Bhanji hopes seeing people wearing the clothing salvaged from the trash will really help get the sustainability message across.
"I mean, if we were forced to wear all the garbage we create? Wow!"

Q: Is there a Rails 3 version of the gem SMERF? I have been looking for a gem that will help build user generated forms.
I need to be able to allow users to define multiple fields like "checkbox" => value or "pulldown" => values as well as positon on the form itself for each.  This form could then be saved and other users could fill it out and that data would be saved and associated with that form.
SMERF I thought would help, but its not been updated for a very long time and I am using rails 3.

A: Funnily enough, I converted SMERF to Rails 3 a while ago. Not fully tested, so let me know if there are any problems.
http://github.com/ferrisoxide/smerf
Fair warning - this was my first attempt at getting a gem working with Rails 3. Bound to be crufty.

How to Profit From the Investing Shift of the Decade
By Dan Ferris
A tremendous shift is coming in the stock market...
I am not talking about a crisis or a bear market – though the market's volatility last year does play a role in it.
The shift I'm talking about will bankrupt many investors who've made gobs of money during this historic bull market over the past 10 years... and make millionaires out of a totally different type of investor.
Whether you are one of those millionaires will depend largely on your understanding of history. Anyone with a passing knowledge of stock market history should already know all about the massive shift I'm about to describe...
I'm talking about a shift in the balance of power between two huge investment forces.
Let me explain...
This idea first appeared in 1924, when an investment adviser named Edgar Lawrence Smith published a terse little volume called Common Stocks as Long Term Investments. The book laid out the research Smith had done on the historical performances of stocks and bonds.
Originally, Smith thought he was sitting down to write a pamphlet on the superiority of bonds as long-term investments. He examined decades of stock and bond price data, from 1837 through 1922.
To his great surprise, Smith found that stocks had been the better long-term investment...
Today, this seems like a no-brainer. But back then, it was a tectonic shift in the widespread belief of the day. As Smith wrote...
Common stocks are, in general, regarded as a medium for Speculation – not for Long Term Investment. Bonds, on the other hand, are generally held to be the best medium for Long Term Investment – free from the hazards of Speculation.
Smith compared several baskets of more or less randomly chosen stocks versus high-grade bonds. The result was always the same: Stocks outperformed bonds.
He realized that when companies reinvested earnings into their businesses – rather than paying them out in dividends – stock prices went up over time.
Over the long term, Smith concluded, investors could count on a well-diversified portfolio of stocks to generate substantial capital gains and dividend income superior to the highest-grade bonds. He wrote...
In the selection of securities for investment, we must consider more than the expected income yield upon the amount invested, and may quite properly weigh the probability of principal enhancement over a term of years without departing from the most conservative viewpoint.
The idea of growth as conservative was radical. But by 1929, Smith's book was a bestseller and "growth investing" was hot, with shoe-shiners and hairdressers trading stock tips and playing the stock market on margin, despite Smith warning investors to avoid "the extreme misfortune" of investing at a market peak.
When the crash of 1929 came, it wiped out thousands of investors, leading the world into the Great Depression.
At the depths of the Depression, another analyst published a radical new view of investing that would change the world forever...
Investor and teacher Benjamin Graham, aided by his partner David Dodd, published Security Analysis, a 725-page, all-encompassing guide to analyzing bonds, preferred stocks, and common stocks the likes of which had never been published before (and has never been published since).
Graham called Smith's book, which totals 140 pages, a "small and rather sketchy volume." He made the case that Smith's book caused investors to focus too much on extrapolating the trend of earnings growth into the future.
Graham said the traditional approach to investing, which focused on "past records and tangible facts, became outworn and was discarded" in the 1920s as Smith's ideas gained popularity. "The past was important only in so far as it showed the direction in which the future could be expected to move," Graham said. (That's the classic mistake of all growth investing: the belief that trees will grow to the sky.)
In Graham's view, "The Common stocks-as-long-term-investments Doctrine," a clear reference to Smith's argument, was based on three ideas...
"The value of a common stock depends on what it can earn in the future."
"Good common stocks will prove sound and profitable investment."
"Good common stocks are those which have shown a rising trend of earnings."
Graham and Dodd immediately pointed out the two weaknesses in these assumptions... They "abolished the fundamental distinction between investment and speculation." And they "ignored the price of a stock in determining whether it was a desirable purchase."
Graham was showing the world the flaws of growth investing. What's more, he advocated replacing it with sensible principles which today are known as "value investing."
Tomorrow, I'll show you that over the long term, value trumps growth. But we must conclude with a subtler point today...
Longtime readers of my work know the market tends to shift the balance of power back and forth between growth and value every several years. Growth has outperformed since 2009, and it looks like value is getting ready to take the lead for the next five to 10 years.
This is perhaps the single most exciting moment of my entire career as a value investor and equity analyst.
Value has underperformed growth for 10 years... And we are likely within several months of a major blow-off top of the longest bull run in stock market history.
Tomorrow, I'll show you why now is the time to start thinking like a value investor – before this huge shift takes hold.
Editor's note: Dan has found what he believes is THE single best investment opportunity of his career. If he's right, this stock could become the first 20-bagger in our research firm's history. And it could do even better as the shift to value plays out... Click here for more details.
"When we find an idea that we think stands head and shoulders above the rest, we're not afraid to stand firm on the quality of our work," Dan says. Learn more about his strategy for selecting the best businesses trading at bargain valuations right here.

*Sergiy Skurikhin, PhD in Law, Docent, Associate Professor of the Department of General Theoretical Jurisprudence, National University "Odessa Law Academy" (Akademichna St., 2, Odessa, Ukraine).
In the theoretical literature there are several approaches to the relationship of legal socialization and legal education, but the dominant today is the allocation of legal education in the framework of legal socialization. Such an approach makes it possible to single out spontaneous and purposeful legal socialization, where the latter will be legal education. Recognizing the allocation of legal education in the framework of legal socialization, it should be noted that the criteria for such allocation are not clearly defined, and often, on a theoretical level, these concepts are mixed. An important criterion in the distinction between spontaneous legal socialization and legal education is the specificity of the subjects of the educational process. In contrast to the subjects of legal education, when considering legal socialization, it is problematic to single out the list of subjects of influence; one can only talk about agents of legal socialization, which is connected with the peculiarities of factors influencing this process. In addition, in the course of the spontaneous legal socialization, a person, an individual is a subject, and in the process of legal education - is considered as an object of law-educational influence from the society. The concretization of subject-object relations in legal education, in contrast to spontaneous legal socialization, provides for the possibility of a clear theoretical development and practical implementation of the principles and methods of legal education. Unlike legal education, spontaneous legal socialization is associated with the influence of uncontrolled processes, so an individual can learn not only the patterns of proper behavior, but also those that are not desirable. In the theory of legal education, traditionally distinguished forms of legal education. Legal education, legal propaganda and legal self-education are a systematic and purposeful process of influence of subjects on objects of legal education. The legal education impact of legal practice and the direct realization of the law does not have a clear systematization and focus, therefore, in this case, we are talking about the means of spontaneous legal socialization, and not about the forms of legal education. Another facet of the relationship of legal education and spontaneous legal socialization is the goal. As a result of the analysis, it was concluded that if the goal of legal education is the formation of legal culture, then the goal of legal socialization of an individual, its key task is the formation of individual legal experience.
The key words: legal socialization, legal education, forms of legal education, legal experience, goals of legal education, goals of spontaneous legal socialization.

You're planning to spend your Valentine's Day in Prague, and you're wondering what to do for your beloved? Well, you just hit the jackpot, because Prague for Two has got it all figured out, and can make your Valentine's Day in Prague a day she will remember for the rest of her life!
There's a ton of stuff you can do for your Valentine's Day in Prague, but most of all that you can do on almost any day. If you have already done your homework by searching on the Internet, you probably know of a few things. One of the most romantic ones is the Lovelock Bridge, where you can "lock your love" by putting the lock with your names on it on the fence. That's pretty much it. Everything else is not going to make your Valentine's Day in Prague much different from any other day.
But not if you consider going with Prague for Two.
Now, imagine yourself casually taking your beloved for a stroll in a park. All of a sudden you stumble upon a table set up just for her: champagne, some snacks, a photo of you two, candles all over the place, a bouquet of her favorite flowers… I guarantee you, this beats all those other things you've seen on the Internet!
Out of all those "things to do on Valentine's Day in Prague" this is by far the best way to tell her "Happy Valentine's Day, sweetheart!" Just think about how many points you're going to get for this!

How Elgin Baylor Became The Lakers' Savior & The Greatest Player To Never Win A Ring
by Kano Klas · 22. March 2021
Photo by: Dick Raphael/NBAE via Getty Image
The basketball world received very sad news today, as Elgin Baylor, one of the all-time greats, has passed away at the age of 86.
Elgin Baylor is probably the greatest player to never win a ring and the most underlooked player in NBA history, as he LITERALLY saved the Lakers franchise.
His career accolades are insanely impressive and read as followed:
NBA Rookie of the Year (1959), 11-time All-Star, 10-time All-NBA First Team (1959–65, 67–69), NBA Finals single-game record for most points (61) on April 14, 1962 against the Boston Celtics, Scored 71 points (8th highest in history) against the New York Knicks (Nov. 15, 1960), 87 regular season 40-point games, ranked seventh in NBA playoffs all-time scoring (27.0 in 134 games)
The Lakers were at the verge of bankruptcy but they flipped the situation around when they selected Elgin Baylor out of Seattle University as the 1st overall pick. Lakers owner Bob Short said the franchise would have gone bankrupt if Elgin Baylor hadn't been drafted to save the franchise. Not only did Baylor save the franchise from bankruptcy, he also saved them from being the worst team in the league.
Baylor took the team from the bottom of the league to the NBA Finals in just his rookie season. As a rookie, he earned an All-Star appearance and won the Rookie of the Year award. His impact was tremendous. He was a phenomenal player. During the 1962 season, Elgin Baylor only played 48 games because he was on military duty and couldn't practice yet he still averaged 38-19-5.
His career peaked between 1960 to 1963, in that stretch, he averaged 33.8 PPG, 17.1 RPG and 4.5 APG. Unfortunately, Elgin Baylor had knee problems during the 1963–64 season and never was the same player after that. Despite being a dominant player in his career and having 8 Finals appearances, he never won a ring.
It just wasn't meant to happen, as exactly when he retired, nine games into the 1971-72 season, because of knee injuries, the Lakers went on to have a 33-game winning streak and won the title.
That's pure bad luck. Nevertheless, Baylor will be remembered as one of the greatest to ever play the game, and as the original highflyer before the likes of Julius Erving, Michael Jordan, and Vince Carter showed up.
Rest in paradise Elgin!

Home/News/Affected residents of tidal waves to have temporary accommodation as assembly starts new permanent housing units
The Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) for Ketu South, Maxwell Lugudor has announced the construction of temporary structures along the coast for residents who were affected by the tidal waves that hit the area.
The move, according to Mr Lugudor, is to enable residents have places to lay their heads if the high waves strike instead of being left homeless after the disaster.
Mr Lugudor noted that the red cross is liaising with the Ketu South Assembly to erect temporary tents, housing units for residents and their families while they wait for the permanent housing units.
He revealed that the construction of the permanent housing unit would begin this month.
The MCE made this known when he visited Agavedzi where the tents are being erected for the affected residents.
According to Mr Lugudor, he had to lobby for the temporary solution when he realised that it is needed to ease accommodation challenges.
"As you can see, the materials are here for the start of the temporary accommodation which would prevent people from being homeless after any disaster that may occur," Mr Lugudor said.
"They promised to give us 50 of the tents, so we want to put those things down in case tomorrow something happens. This way, at least people can have a place to lay their heads."
According to Mr Lugudor, the structures are designed to be a concrete foundation with a tent to cover it from widow level to the roofing stage.
Mr Lugudor noted that it became very necessary to have a temporary remedy while they speed up works on some 15-unit permanent housing projects situated on an island at about 6 kilometres away from the sea.
With the permanent housing units, Mr Lugudor noted that the contractor has started the extension of water and electricity to the site, adding that moulding of 1000 blocks daily will also start this week .
The Municipal Engineer, Kingsley Oduro, said his outfit have conducted the feasibility studies on the island and have advised the contractor on what to do due the nature of soil there.
"We have done feasibility studies very well and we know the type of soil on the site, hence the contractor is advised to establish the right foundation in order not to affect the facilities when completed" Mr Oduro said.
The 15-unit apartment is sponsored by Ghana Gas Company, the MCE appealed to other state and private entities to support by building more for the victims.
Residents are happy about the news of a temporary solution, but have urged government to consider the construction of the sea defence wall to prevent the sea from destroying the communities.
Between July last year and March this year, more than 4,000 residents have been displaced by the waves in Keta, Anloga and Ketu South.

eBay Inc. Plans Q4 PayPal Restructuring Charge
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--eBay Inc. (NASDAQ: EBAY) today announced a planned fourth quarter pretax restructuring charge of approximately $15 million related to staff reductions at the company's PayPal business unit. PayPal today informed approximately 325 employees, primarily in its product and technology organizations, of job eliminations. PayPal also is ending contracts with approximately 120 contractors globally. The reduction results from a redesign of PayPal's product organization, consolidating nine product groups into a single, more agile organization. The intent is to simplify and speed up how products are developed. PayPal expects to continue its strong global growth momentum and leadership through online merchant expansion and share of checkout, by driving payments innovation at point-of-sale retail for large, medium and small businesses, and by engaging consumers online and offline with payments products and experiences that offer choice, flexibility, simplicity and security. PayPal currently has more than 117 million active accounts.
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"
The company said that the restructuring charge is only expected to impact reported GAAP earnings. It is not expected to affect non-GAAP results.
This press release contains forward-looking statements relating to, among other things, the future performance of eBay and its consolidated subsidiaries that are based on the company's current expectations, forecasts and assumptions and involve risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: the timing, impact and execution of the Company's workforce reduction plan and the extent of the employees and contractors impacted; the company's need to successfully react to the increasing importance of mobile payments and mobile commerce and the increasing social aspect of commerce; the company's need and ability to manage other regulatory, tax and litigation risks as its services are offered in more jurisdictions and applicable laws become more restrictive; any changes the company may make to its product offerings; the competitive, regulatory, credit card association-related and other risks specific to PayPal and Bill Me Later, especially as PayPal continues to expand geographically and introduce new products and as new laws and regulations related to financial services companies come into effect; the company's ability to timely upgrade and develop its systems, infrastructure and customer service capabilities, at reasonable cost; and the company's ability to maintain site stability and performance on all of its sites while adding new products and features in a timely fashion.
More information about factors that could affect the company's operating results is included under the captions "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the company's most recent annual report on Form 10-K and subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, copies of which may be obtained by visiting the company's Investor Relations website at http://investor.ebayinc.com or the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

Building History
The building at One East Avenue in Lockport, NY, was originally constructed as the city's main US Post Office. Designed by Supervising Architect of the Treasury Department James Knox Taylor and completed in 1904, the Lockport Post Office is an outstanding example of early 20th century public architecture in New York State and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The three-story, red brick and terra cotta building combines Beaux Arts massing with sculptural detail inspired by classical and Renaissance design. No expense was spared on building materials in an era before austerity budgeting and standardized design were adopted by the US Treasury for public buildings after 1915.
Of special interest in the former post office is the second floor federal courtroom, which retains its original architectural detail and light fixtures. Postal facilities of this era were often combined with federal courts. The court at One East Avenue was used only into the 1930's; since then the courtroom has been closed.
In 1932, a 3,800 square foot one-story addition was constructed on the northern side of the original building near the brick loading dock.
Post office activities in the building ceased in March 1991, at which point it was put up for sale. In 1992 the building was purchased by Lockport couple Michael and Patricia George, who spent the next five years refurbishing it and readying it for commercial tenants. The Georges owned the former post office for almost fifteen years when the death of Mr. George made it no longer feasible for his wife and sons. In 2006 the building was purchased by former Lockport native, Steven Talarico who managed it with limited success until 2015, when it was purchased by an affiliate of Iskalo Development Corp.
Since its purchase of the Historic Post Office, Iskalo Development has stabilized its exterior and replaced one of two red Medina sandstone entry stairways. The company has continued to lease the first floor to current as well as new tenants; the second and third floors remain vacant pending building redevelopment. Iskalo Development is now preparing to commence a comprehensive renovation of the Historic Post Office Building including meticulous restoration of the building's historic features and modernization of the building's mechanical systems. When complete, the Historic Post Office will offer a complementary mix of uses including boutique shops and commercial studios, prestigious executive office suites and a dynamic restaurant space. The building is ideally located in the heart of downtown Lockport, directly across from the Historic Palace Theater and within a short walk from the Cornerstone Ice Arena, local area shops and restaurants.

Q: How to join two tables with adding id of table? I have two tables:
name   value
a1      45
a2      77
b1      99

name   value
e1      11
f5      99
z9      99

I want to join them and add new column id showing from which table row is:
name   value   id
a1      45     old
a2      77     old
b1      99     old
e1      11     new
f5      99     new
z9      99     new

How to do that?

A: Use assign and append:
>>> df1.assign(id="old").append(df2.assign(id="new")).reset_index(drop=True)
  name  value   id
0   a1     45  old
1   a2     77  old
2   b1     99  old
3   e1     11  new
4   f5     99  new
5   z9     99  new

A: Another solution, using pd.concat:
df = (
    pd.concat([df1, df2], keys=["old", "new"], names=["id"])
    .droplevel(1)
    .reset_index()
)
print(df)

Prints:
    id name  value
0  old   a1     45

Carmody Groarke inserts concrete house inside old brick warehouse in London
Jon Astbury | 14 December 2018 Leave a comment
House and Studio Lambeth is a new building that architecture office Carmody Groarke has slotted into the brick shell of a Victorian warehouse in south London.
The house and studio is located on a long, narrow site that is landlocked by housing. Rather than clear the site, the London-based studio chose to work with the fabric of the old warehouse that remained. The new building simply slots inside.
"The client was very keen to keep all of the old walls and any remnants of the past within them," explained project architect Andrew House.
"Although structurally very challenging, as the walls were never designed to carry this additional weight, it helped with an already very complex boundary condition," he told Dezeen.
This idea of a brick "skin" became a running motif throughout the design. New areas adopt a sensitive brick exterior, but are lined internally with smooth concrete that occasionally reveals itself from behind the original brick walls.
At ground floor level, the footprint of the site is completely given over to office space, sitting off a dramatic, sky-lit concrete corridor.
Above, the living spaces are designed as a cluster of "pavilions", a series of individual units with different heights linked by a skylit internal street. A concrete stair connects the two levels.
Each of these small buildings, wrapped in brickwork but finished internally with concrete, has been designed according to the sensitivities of the surrounding homes, minimising obstructions and overlooking.
The living area itself only occupies around half of the site at its northern end, stretching back to a large roof garden sitting on top of the office spaces below, surrounded by a perforated brick wall and overlooked by a large living room and kitchen space.
As well as providing outdoor space, this garden is intended to offer a "visual amenity" for neighbours.
Carmody Groarke unveils plans to build transparent "shield" around Mackintosh's Hill House
There are four bedrooms, including one divided by a concrete bathroom unit finished with a large shadow gap. These sit alongside a playroom, a small office space and a home cinema.
The small run of space that separates the pavilions from the original warehouse wall allows light to reach the living spaces through tall, narrow panels of glazing. This space is also accessible from both the garden and doors in the bedroom, doubling as a thin terrace.
Almost all interior finishes and features, such as fixed seating and shelves, are made out of concrete, unifying the interior.
"The concrete was always intended to be quite raw," said House, "but as the project developed with samples on site, the client was able to see with could be achieved with almost perfect smooth concrete juxtaposing the rough old warehouse brick."
Carmody Groarke also used the concept of pavilions in a recent scheme in Sussex, connecting a small structure to a home via an underground tunnel.
House and Studio Lambeth was shortlisted for an RIBA London Award earlier this year, along with the practice's Fitzrovia House scheme, which eventually went on to win.

Протопо́повка — село в Арзамасском районе Нижегородской области. Входит в состав Кирилловского сельсовета.

Население

История
В начале 18 века деревня была известна под названием Никифоровка. Второе название - Протопоповка - деревня получила потому, что принадлежала Арзамасскому Воскресенскому собору с его настоятелем - протопопом (протоиереем): "1710 году написано за протопопом за Гаврилом Васильевым с братьей".

Церковь
Церковь во имя иконы Божией Матери «Не рыдай Мене Мати» 1819 года постройки Церковь одноэтажная с двухъярусной колокольней. Один из престолов храма носит имя преподобного Сергия Радонежского.

Храм закрыт в 1934 году. В советские годы церковный купол с крестом был сброшен, а из камня надстроили второй этаж и некоторое время использовали как школу.

Летом 2014 года в помещении бывшего алтаря были застеклены окна, оштукатурены стены, застелен пол, установлена входная дверь. 8 октября была совершена первая с 1934 года Божественная литургия. Попечение о храме было возложено на протоиерея Игоря Медведева.

12 октября 2014 года возле храма на бывшей церковной кладбищенской земле был установлен поклонный крест.

The Hard Way By Katie Ashley: Review & Buy Links
4 Shakespeare stars
A sweet story
Cade is Mr popular, comes from money with a dad as a politician and Avery is a sweet down to earth girl who helps her mum in a store and also on her Grans farm, she's a good natured sweet kind of girl.
This plot took me back to the film Greece were Danny and Sandy fell in love over the summer and when Sandy meets him in School he's a complete asshole.
Not the same plot at all but it had that same feel when Cole completely turns on Avery.
The plot goes from past to present, told in dual pov's after they have spent 4 years apart.
Great writing style I easily got lost in the plot to the point where I even had a few tears.
A story of forgiveness, change, turning over a new leaf, second chances with moments of humour, hotness, sadness and heartwarming moments included.
A good read, what I would call my sunday reads, no huge angst or major drama just a chilled out read with great characters that leads to a hea, well not a complete hea with wedding bells etc but a conclusion leaving you satisfied.

Cade Hall has always been the golden boy of the gridiron. Because of his talent at football, coupled with his father's wealth, he's always gotten his way. But when a night of drunken debauchery lands him in hot water with the college athletic board, neither his influential father nor his charming grin can save him. He finds it a total buzz kill when he is sentenced to community service with troubled youth at an inner-city shelter. But his nightmare is only beginning when his greatest high school regret is the very one in charge of the program, and she has him by the balls in more ways than one.
For Avery Prescott, senior year was a nightmare of epic proportions, and Cade Hall played the lead villain. After she fled her small town for college in the bright lights of Atlanta, she thought she had escaped the painful memories of her past. She never could have imagined Cade would waltz through the door of the outreach program she presided over. But Avery has news for Cade--she isn't the same shy, doormat of a girl she was in high school. Since she holds Cade's football future in her hands, she's more than ready to make payback a real bitch.
Will the two stay in the defensive zone or discover that sometimes life's greatest lessons are learned the hard way?


One of the nicest Christmas stories this year is about the town of Wilmington, Ohio. This town of 12,000 people drew national attention after it lost 8,000 jobs when DHL closed its doors in 2008 and grounded the 24 cargo planes it operated. When that happened, Wilmington's residents were staring down at a 66% unemployment rate. The first place most people turn to is the government. They look for grants, loans, or just plain handouts. But not the people of Wilmington. They decided they'd do it all on their own without the government involved.
One of the first projects was to establish a prayer group in an abandoned store right in the middle of town. They never quit praying for the town and its people. The 34 churches in town decided they'd all pitch in and keep praying 24 hours a day; seven days a week, without stopping. They're still doing it.
60 Minutes dubbed Wilmington "Ground Zero" for the unemployment crises. They pretty much announced this town "dead on arrival." They're dead wrong at CBS 60 Minutes. Wilmington represents the true American spirit. They look out for one another and work together rebuilding a town they call home. And guess what? The government isn't involved -- the churches are.
The prayers are clearly working! A lady in Wilmington just loved the town's old hotel and was visiting with the owner, telling him how she'd like to save the hotel. He told her he'd like to save it too, but he just didn't have the energy to run it. The lady said she'd like to help, but what could she do. He told her to buy the hotel and she replied that she had no money or she would buy it. The owner said she could buy it and he'd finance the whole deal. They made the deal right then and there and sealed it with a handshake and no contract. She's worked hard and hasn't missed a payment.
A company in North Carolina heard about all the good people in Wilmington and decided to check out the town. They liked the way the people did business in Wilmington, all on a handshake, so they decided to expand their business to Wilmington and hire 25-50 people; all on a handshake.
These stories go on and on as the good folks in Wilmington continue to pray, round the clock and also continue to improve their town. That's a Christmas story to remember.
