Speech to Text for Photos of Terre Haute North Vigo High School make rounds on social media
Below is the closed-captioning text associated with this video. Since this uses automated speech to text spelling and grammar may not be accurate.
"their safety and security. their health. that's paramount to us. that's number one." leaders of one local school say student safety is not in jeopardy. it comes after photos call attention to building conditions. good evening and welcome to news 10 on my fox 10. i'm rondrell moore. patrece dayton has the evening off. earlier today leaders at terre haute north vigo high school spoke with local media about safety concerns in their building. news 10's sarah lehman was at the press conference. she joins us live now with what she learned. rondrell... this facebook post has a lot of people concerned and asking questions. it shows pictures and video of safety and health concerns inside north vigo high school. but the principal here says these issues have been fixed. [take pkg outcue: that is inaccurate duration:1:24] < "we do have issues. that's why we've invited the community in. to look behind the walls." robin smith is the principal at terre haute north vigo high school. after these pictures and videos of issues inside the school were posted on facebook yesterday a lot of parents were concerned for the safety of their kids and other people in the building. smith says... "those photos are true but they were not taking from yesterday and magically repaired today." smith walked us through the school showing us specifically where the photos were taken and how the school has fixed them. some things had been fixed months ago -- other things were fixed just a day before this story. smith says the custodial team at the high school work to fix things as well as they can. "they work hard every day to make sure the building looks like what you toured" but she says... "we do have issues that arise we jump on them. we get them fixed that's not secret." smith says that the school is old and things of it's age are going to have problems. but she says if she still had kids who were high school age she would not have an issue with sending them to north. she says everyone working there puts the students health and safety first. she adds, the pictures aren't put into persepective. "the perception that our kids are walking around in that everyday that is innacurate." > the school corporation is aware of these problems in north high school and many other older buildings -- and they are working on a solution. reporting live at north vigo high school sarah lehman news 10. back to you.

Bycatch is one of the main threats affecting marine megafauna worldwide, not only because of its prevalence, but also because the impact of high levels of bycatch in small oceanic regions may spread over whole oceans due to the complex dispersal patterns of bycaught species. Here, we use intrinsic and genetic markers to understand the impact of bycatch on the Atlantic and Mediterranean populations of the loggerhead turtle sharing the same foraging grounds in the western Mediterranean Sea. Turtles of Atlantic origin settle on the continental shelf later and at a larger size than turtles of Mediterranean origin and hence have been suggested to be more vulnerable to pelagic fishing gears, whereas those of Mediterranean origin would be more vulnerable to neritic ones. To assess whether this hypothesis holds true, we compared the genetic make-up of turtle bycatch from drifting longlines and bottom trawl/trammel nets in three different regions (eastern mainland Spain, southern Balearic Islands and southern Italy). A total of 176 incidentally caught turtles were considered, and size and habitat use, as revealed by stable isotopes, were incorporated to the analysis. No genetic, size or isotopic differences were found between turtles caught with drifting longlines and bottom trawl/trammel nets within any of the three regions. However, genetic, size and isotopic differences were detected among regions, regardless of the fishing gear. Thus, the population make-up of loggerhead bycatch depends on the area where the fishing operations are conducted, but not on the fishing gear used. Accordingly, the actual impact of loggerhead bycatch in the Mediterranean Sea will depend not only on the total number of turtles taken, but also on the geographic distribution of the fishing effort.

Is it possible to an appeal an unban?

I was wondering if an appeal or an unban on the game or forums is appealable by any case. Respond if possible, no pressure. I'll be waiting.

No, bans are irrevocable. You have extra life in game but no in community.

Actually, if you are banned in-game, you don't have extra lives either
Don't play too much puns because I can smell it.

I am not tigar88, infact he's my brother. I can't control what he did. But i was curious if he could get unbanned since he played for 100 hours and he. Messed up badly but it's understandable if he can't get unbanned. Have a good day or night.

Sorry, but according to iA's post above bans are irrevocable. Even if he had 300 hours of progress as you say, he shouldn't have said racist slurs, insulted everyone with more slurs and griefed the French translation with swears. All of this could have been easily avoided, however even if there was a chance to remove the ban all the stuff done was extreme.
No doubts, i aint denying anything. Wasn't okay. He messed up.
Karizaki March 31, 2021, 11:44am #18
Swearing at people over the timespan of more hours doesn't show 'regret'.
Whether he's your brother or you himself, he outta here.

IA spesicifally told me to avoid swearing when i asked in translations, so we can keep the kiddies safe.
this is a christian forum and god bless it, we are keeping it sacred :Д

In 1950, C.J Lindsay started Lindsay Co. The product line consisted of cutting tools for the machining industry. Two years later C.J. was joined by brother Harold and the two of them formed Lindsay Enterprises. As the company grew, a need was realized to manufacture special milling cutters using carbide inserts. With this background in carbide, Lindsay introduced the first carbide tipped debarker arms to the sawmill industry in the mid 1960's.
In 1981, Lindsay Forest Products, Inc was formed as a seperate entity to concentrate entirely on the Forest Industry. In the 1980's manufacturing facilities were opened in Portland OR, Carthage, TX and Chilliwack, BC, Canada. This new company was formed and run by Dave Lindsay, son of C.J. The two still work out of the Portland, OR facility today.
In the 1990's Lindsay Forest Products expanded to Quebec Canada and LaGrange Georgia to better serve the Eastern regions of North America. The product line also swelled to service chippers, planers and other wear related items in the mills. The Lindex Chipping Systems product line was formed in 1999 to promote and manufacture a new knife system for chippings heads in the mills. LFP does the marketing and service of the Lindex knife System. Lindex Chipping Systems continues to develop new innovations in chipping technology.

MUFG Markets Chief Says BOJ May Ditch Easy Policy by September
Taiga Uranaka and Komaki Ito, Bloomberg News
Hiroyuki Seki Photographer: Shoko Takayasu/Bloomberg , Bloomberg
(Bloomberg) -- Clients of Japan's biggest bank are bracing for the central bank to finally abandon its ultra-easy monetary policy, which could happen by the end of September, according to the head of Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group Inc.'s global markets business.
"I think the Bank of Japan could launch an exit strategy as soon as the first half of the next fiscal year under the new leadership," Hiroyuki Seki said in an interview. Japan's financial year starts in April, and BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda steps down on April 8.
Such a move would depend on stable price increases and wage growth, as well as the health of the US and European economies, Seki said. The Tokyo-based lender is already seeing a pickup in activity from companies and institutions anticipating higher interest rates on yen-denominated assets, he added.
"We are getting a lot of inquiries about yen interest-rate derivatives, which haven't moved much until recently," said Seki, 54. "We need to respond to clients' growing moves to prepare for a possible paradigm shift from long years of a negative-rate environment."
While the sustainability of the BOJ's monetary easing has been in question for some time, inflation at the highest level in more than four decades and the central bank's surprise yield-curve tweak in December have further fueled speculation for an end to the policy. The BOJ dampened the fervor this month when it said it remains committed to keeping a lid on bond yields for now.
Seki said an exit referred to actions including further changes to yield curve control and the scrapping of negative rates. Overseas economic conditions will be significant to the timing, because it would become very difficult if the US and Europe enter a recession, he said.
"The BOJ needs to watch economic cycles of US and Europe," said Seki, who has spent more than 20 years in the markets business in his three-decade career at MUFG.
Even if the central bank ditches negative rates, Seki doesn't expect it to follow the Federal Reserve and embark on successive large-scale hikes, saying Japan's policy rate is likely to take a long time to even reach around 0.2%.
Long battered by rock-bottom borrowing costs, Japanese banks suddenly became a favorite for investors last month after the BOJ widened its target for 10-year government bond yields — a move seen as a precursor to a broader policy shift that could bolster interest income.
Not everything about ending the policy would be positive for banks. One possible adverse impact is impairment of lenders' yen bond holdings, which would drop in value if yields jump.
Seki said MUFG has been taking measures since early last year to mitigate risks to its bond portfolio, including through swap transactions and buying bear funds that generate returns in bond market downturns. "We have already been building up positions to boost resilience toward yen interest-rate rises," he said.
For his markets business, Seki expects the increase in volatility to spur yen-related transactions.
"Low inflation, low interest rates, low volatility and excess liquidity — they are all being upended," he said. "This volatile situation is likely to continue in financial markets in Japan and overseas. And so finally this year, I expect yen interest rate business to grow."
Meanwhile, the BOJ has enhanced a program to provide loans to commercial banks to buy more debt — another tactic in Kuroda's stubborn defense of the yield curve control policy. Seki said the facility is designed to push down swap rates, which have been rising sharply compared with Japanese government bond yields as investors anticipate policy tightening.
But he voiced concern that the latest move, coupled with the continued JGB buying, could work against the very purpose of the central bank's measures. "I hope the BOJ will further strengthen monitoring for potential side effects such as deterioration in the functioning of yen interest-rate markets," he said.

Where is the ATR 2100 and AT 2005?
When I first became interested and way before stumbling onto the IAIB website I too ended up with flaky advice. My initial goal had nothing to do with webcasting but simply 'microphones' that may improve the clarity for voice dictation and Skype. Yes I know, most any mic will work for that purpose but I'm finicky that way.

Love the AT 2005USB/XLR microphone.
If you follow the pointers on youtube you may be falling into the affiliate programs. Companies pay small commissions to people who refer to their sites. The company track the origination location to pay those commissions.
You will find huge numbers of these site pointers from youtube videos. Look at all the unboxing videos and reviews is a best place to get pointed to those companies. These unboxing reviews are just what they are, nothing more. Best information is from experience owners and users.
I think you can post here or on the videomaker.com forums and get some decent answers. Principally, because you will get several responses as a usual rule from people with experience with the products.
I have two of the ATR2100 mics, an H2 Zoom recorder, and Azden wireless lapel mic. I have no problem recommending any of these products.
All the podcasters recommend the PR40 Heil microphone as excellent. I do not doubt it, but you do pay $300 for the excellence.

I saw this the other day too. Had to snicker. I'm using an ATR2100 and an AT2005 interchangeably, depending on where I am. I typically have the 2100 in my home set up and take the 2005 on the road with me when I do mobile interviews.
I've probably got 12-15 mics I've used over the years. I used cheap Audix mics, I've used AT headsets (that I typically use for live sporting events with someone else) and I don't have a whole lot of faith in anything with software-based or USB-based things. Oddly, I have to use a USB interface running out of my board (it's not a USB board).
There's another thread here about bad advice ... and it's almost comical.
I started with USB mic's and they do have their place. I never tried the 2100 or 2005 but they are highly regarded. Once I purchased a mixer I moved away from the USB line and tried the PR40 but I ended up settling on the RE20.
The writer of that article has no clue.
Which one? The one OP posted or the equipboard one? Or both?
I was new to the world of USB mics in general, so I'm curious to hear your opinion on why. I liked the approach of the article I posted bc the author tallied votes for USB mic recommendations from other communities (like reddit). So I feel like the results represent popular opinion. Still, I admit it could be way off!


New Delhi: Star javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra was on Friday named the Indian contingent's flag-bearer for the Asian Games opening ceremony to be held on 18 August in Jakarta.
Indian Olympic Association (IOA) president Narinder Batra made the announcement during the send-off ceremony organised for the contingent. The Games will be held from 18 August to 2 September in the Indonesian cities of Jakarta and Palembang.
Neeraj had won the gold medal in the Asian Athletic championships in 2017 with a throw of 85.23 meters. He had also bagged a gold in the 2016 IAAF World U-20 Championships in Bydgoszcz, Poland.

Imagi, top executives at Fanya plan to develop major commodities trading platform
Imagi International, working with two top executives from the Fanya exchange, plans to develop a major commodities trading platform and a related internet-based finance business, the company said in its 2014 annual report.
The plan to develop the trading platform comes as the animation studio, responsible for making the 2007 film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, undertakes a strategic review into how to utilise its surplus cash.
It also comes after Shan Jiuliang, the Fanya Metal Exchange's founder and chairman, and Zhang Peng, the exchange's vp, joined the board of Imagi in the second half of 2014.
The experience of both Shan and Zhang in trading, combined with non-executive director Francis Leung's experience in investment banking and private equity investment, have helped to drive the move, Imagi said.
"The business structure and plan of the new business have been finalised and preliminary preparatory work is ongoing," Imagi added.
Imagi did not specify which commodity trading platform it plans to develop, and neither Imagi nor Fanya would comment on whether the platform mentioned was the Fanya Metal Exchange.
Shan is the chairman and executive director at Imagi International, and Peng is an executive director.
Profits for the company in 2014 stood at HK$3.5 million ($450,000) for 2014, from a loss of HK$21.9 million in 2013.

Langston Hughes' poem "I, Too, Sing America" rings as true in 2017 as it did when he wrote it in 1938. Each of us, too, has a song to sing as an American. Using Hughes' poem and Jacqueline Woodson's poem "what i believe" as touchstones, we will read and explore these two poems, then write our own responses.
This event will be held at the Jericho Town Library.


Now here's a pickle: who makes these tyres? Rotalla might just be one of the most elusive brand names ever and the lack of online info about it doesn't do its "coming out" much good. Luckily, we've got the answer. Rotalla is one of the brands of tyres manufactured by Enjoy Tyre, a Chinese company formed in 2004. It might not be that well-known due to the fact that its manufacturer is extremely young in comparison with the giants of the tyre-manufacturing industry. These tyres can be bought in 40 countries worldwide. The Rotalla winter tyres proved to be reliable products that can be purchased at a fraction of the price you'd spend on other brands.
Winter tyres aren't known for being silent – quite on the contrary. However, the ones offered by Rotalla are made with special compounds that make the tyres generate less noise when the car is rolling. The fuel consumption of the car is also improved by the Rotalla tyres. The traction, as you might expect, is perfect and there's no way that you won't be able to ascend a hill, for example, or get out of a snow bank. In terms of durability, with proper storage, the Rotalla tyres can last for up to 4 years, which we daresay that it's a good deal. The Rotalla winter tyres will take you by surprise since they're extremely affordable and high-quality, as well as durable.
People are reluctant to purchase something that didn't make a name for itself. This could serve as an explanation as to why the Rotalla brand isn't more well-known since it provides a decent number of perks for a good price. Well, as we mentioned, the company that manufactures the brand is a newborn, for a sense of scale. The fact that its tyres are exported to many countries all over the world points out that it's doing everything as it should. If you don't want to blow a hole in your finances, the Rotalla winter tyres are a good option. You can buy them in the proper sizes for your vehicle from our catalogue. All you have to do is go to eiretyres.com and use the tyre selector there.


It is not often that one gets to see a complete city in one night. A city is its people. The more the people, the different the people, the more the city you see. I had one such experience last evening. Like always, a wonderful experience to meet with people who nourish your every intellectual crevice. Yet another experience to remember and cherish.
I would like to take you all through a magical journey through the looking glass.
2020 – I get in my car.
2035 – Why the hell are there no parking spots on Zamzama.
2040 – Umer – you have changed very very very much from when we last met.
2115 – Suddenly engulfed by people I donít know. I am not very good around people I donít know. But then again, they were all very casual and friendly.
2140 – Conversation carries on and food arriveth.
2210 – Food is one thing, but conversation another.
2230 – We need to smoke, we need to take pictures, we need to hide, we need to express, we need to rebel, we need to have Freudian Slips (Sorry Dr Sahib), we need to have strange ideas about sharing stories (Sorry Ali), we need to make the strangest of jokes (Sorry Altamash).
2255 – We need Coffee. At Caffeine.
2315 – We listen to songs and we discuss our completely different points on view on music and songs and groups and singers and guitarists.
2345 – We need to go home.
0050 – I am home.
and by the way…you missed out the moments of religious silence while we paid homage to U2!
Yes … lemme post about THAT now.


The author Walker Percy wrote: "In the world, goodness is destined to be defeated." Percy is correct when he says this. No matter how good people do or the good deeds they do, the outcome isn't always good. The saying "do good and good would come to you" doesn't always work out in people's favor. No matter how some people try, they could never seek goodness in the end. In Ken Kesey's novel One Flow Over the Cuckoo's Nest and John Steinbeck's novel Of Mice and Men use symbolism and conflict to show that the main characters seek goodness but get defeated in the end.

What we want from a National Food Strategy
By	Alistair Driver on	 October 30, 2019 Comment, Edward Barker
NPA senior policy adviser Ed Barker sets out the NPA's core thoughts on the National Food Strategy.
In June, Defra's Secretary of State, then Michael Gove, commissioned Henry Dimbleby to conduct an independent review to help the government create its first National Food Strategy for 75 years.
The purpose of the review is to address the environmental and health problems caused by the UK's food system, the security of food supply, and to maximise the benefits of agricultural technology.
The NPA has responded to the 'call for evidence' by providing practical ideas and examples of where the pig sector can contribute to the aims of the strategy, which explicitly demands from stakeholders how to deliver affordable, sustainable and high quality food for the nation.
In a wide ranging response, the NPA raised the following:
Better informed consumers: The NPA argued that whilst great strides have been made in labelling fresh meat in retailers, there still needed to be a significant amount of work done in the catering and food service sectors. In addition, we felt that more practical initiatives could be delivered to ensure agriculture is taken more seriously in schools and colleges, for example recognising it as a STEM subject.
Food waste: It is hard to avoid public debates about food waste, and the NPA recognises that the industry has a great story to tell in that more than a million tonnes of co- and by-products from the food industry is fed to pigs. However, this could go further, and NPA outlined what it felt could be done to make better use of available, safe food waste.
Insect biomass: This is an interesting and novel area of research that the NPA, along with a number of industry stakeholders have been working on to try and find more sustainable approaches to feed that allow the sector to be less reliant on imported soya.
A joined up Government approach to disease prevention: Given the current and clear risks from ASF incursion to the UK pig herd and food system, the NPA urged Government to look at disease as a cross-Whitehall concern and not a singular Defra concern.
Procurement: We said no food strategy could truly work unless Government departments, themselves, only procured food to the same standard that they legally require in the UK.
The Government will respond with a White Paper six months after the review is published. It has also asked Henry Dimbleby to review progress 12 months after that.

Devotional Reflections, Issue #001 -- Do You Have a Fake ID?
With the advent of technology, especially regarding computers and the internet there seems to be an increasing problem with people using fake IDs. As a matter of fact, the headline on DesMoinesRegister.com today is: Police say Drake student is at center of fake ID case.
We have a rampant case of fake IDs in our country today. This is a Christian nation, and 90% of our citizens will tell you that they are Christians. At the same time we face such moral issues as abortion, prayer in schools, posting the Ten Commandments on government property and the list goes on! Something just does not seem to jive!
My purpose here is not to face off on the moral issues nor give you 10 Sure Fire Ways You Can Know whether Your Neighbor is a Christian or not. Thankfully the job of knowing who is or is not a Christian is left to God who is the only One who can see the heart of every person.
Instead, my purpose is you! Whether a Christian or not, it is good from time to time to sit in a quiet place and just meditate on just who we really are. What are we really like inside where no one else can see us? Understanding our inmost being will help us to discern our true spiritual state, giving us the opportunity to go to God for help, for He alone can change our heart.
In Matthew 7:16 Jesus is talking about those who appear righteous and Godly, but are not. He said, You will know them by their fruits. Again, remember, I'm not talking about your neighbor; I'm talking about you. What fruits do you manifest in your heart of hearts?
Galatians 5:22-26 talks about the fruit of the Spirit. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
Take some time alone and think about each characteristic of a true Christian and how you do or do not see that characteristic in your own life. Word of caution: do not compare yourself with other people (that's cheating). Compare yourself to the Lord Jesus Christ who is perfect in righteousness and holiness.
If we are truly honest with ourselves, we all will have to humble ourselves, fall before God, and ask for His help as we see ourselves fall short of His perfection. That doesn't mean we are not a Christian. The unbeliever usually looks at a list like this and says, "I don't even want to be on that list. Only weaklings would ever aspire to such things. If that characterized my life, everyone would walk all over me!" In our culture today we tend to take pride in being ruthless and independent, filled with conceit, and displaying a temper whenever the occasion merits it. We may not admit it, but look at who we look up to.
Go to God today and ask forgiveness for your sins; only Christ can save us from our sins because He already paid for them on the cross.
You Alone are Righteous, Lord!
At least that's the proper thing to say.
I really don't want to sound too droll.
A little harder I must confess.
These are much harder an offering.
What? You want me to be true?
I cannot just stretch a little too?
Simply to my Lord I fall.
His love for me overshadows all.
Forgiveness I have deeply implored.
You alone are righteous, Lord.
For myself, I cannot say a word!


Goals from Matthew Newman ('13) and Alfie Paxman ('22) either side of a Curtis Ujah own goal ('15) set the tone for a game dominated by the visitors, although they did concede to Matt Foy on the half hour mark.
Harlow threatened in parts, but a goal each in the second half (Adam Yusuff, '47) and Matt Foy ('61) meant Folkestone successfully kept up their assault on the playoff spots.
The size of Harlow's task increased early on in the second half. Yusuff finished a tight one-on-one well with 47′ on the clock after getting behind first-half substitute Jonathan Moanda, and receiving a precise ball from Ian Draycott.


In a packed room at the Manhattan auction house, a 1920s mandolin-banjo with a presale estimate of $300 to $500 sold for $3,200. A gold sales award for the album "Me and Mr. Johnson," estimated at $600 to $900, fetched $32,000.
A 2008 Martin acoustic guitar on which Clapton played the song "Motherless Child" sold for $58,000, well over its presale estimate of $3,000 to $5,000. All sale prices are before buyer's commission.
Wednesday afternoon, a selection of amps, guitars and other memorabilia from rock star Eric Clapton's personal collection were auctioned off at Bonhams in Manhattan to a room chock-full of fans of the English rock icon. Guitars and amps, which had starting prices that ranged from $300 to $30,000, sold for more than the auction house expected.
The most surprising sale early on was a 1979 three-quarter size acoustic guitar made by Danny Ferrington, which went for an astounding $42,700, 100 times more than the expected price tag, according to the London-based firm Wallace & Hodgson who organized the auction with Bonhams.
Many of the guitars up for auction are only two to three years old, like the 2005 custom-built black Fender Stratocaster that Clapton played during his Cream-reunion concerts. This was the first time Clapton offered up his vintage amplifier collection for sale, which included a mid-1960s Supro S6698 'Sportsman,' the same model used by Jimmy Page on the Led Zeppelin II album. The amp sold for $28,060.
This is the third time that Clapton has auctioned off part of his musical collection to the public. Proceeds of the sale aimed to support the Crossroads Center, a drug and alcohol center founded by Clapton in Antigua.

Reed Alexander's Horror Review of 'Under The Skin' (2013)
by Reed Alexander 3 months ago in movie review
Certainly a Lot of Skin...
SPOILERS!!!
And what do we know about my reviews if they start with spoilers? They're usually about shitty movies...
Why does this feel like a revenge rape porn? This is essentially about some strange alien entity that lures men to their death. So, it's basically a ton of scenes with the hot alien chick leading men to their death. Then finally, when she decides she wants to experiment with actually being human, she gets raped and murdered. It's like the director or the writer thinks every woman is essentially out to rob men of their life, and really they deserve the bad shit that happens to them. That seems to be the fucking moral of this flaming dumpster fire of a movie. The alien chick "deserves" her fate because that's what she was doing to men all along.
What kind of fucking movie is that? Was the writer or director so desperate to invent a scenario where a woman deserves to be raped that he literally created a sci-fi horror to justify it? Dude, I've said this before and I'll say it 'til I'm dead. If you're that pathetic, just direct a porno. Don't waste hours of my time with this shit.
What's even worse is that there was actually a pretty interesting movie hidden under that dumpster fire. The alien life form goes from a creature whose sole purpose is to hunt and collect food, to slowly realizing her existence beyond her simple nature, to trying and failing to be human. She has the capacity to emulate human behavior, but has the purpose and instincts of a simple drone. There, right fucking there, is the real fucking movie. But you know what I'm not going to fucking do? I'm not going to sift through flaming toxic waste to try and peel back the layers of your revenge rape fantasy.
This isn't a bad movie. This is a great movie that was ruined by men who are clearly frustrated by their insignificance (and likely intimidated by women to the point of being phobic). There was atmosphere so thick you could cut it with a knife, tension so deep you were gasping for release, cinematography so perfect, each shot was a work of art. Visually, this movie was stunning. Moreover, the acting expressed something completely alien in a way that was gripping and moving. Scarlett Johansson's monochromatic presentation of the entity is literally otherworldly. Everything that we see as normal and take for granted is presented in a way that makes it seems strange and foreign.
The process of the alien hunting down and capturing its prey is just flat out fascinating. And with every victim we're taken a step further into this nightmarish process. From what I can tell, its victims are essentially digested, dissolving everything except the skin, which seems like it's used for more aliens to disguise themselves. There could literally be thousands of these things thriving on the planet for unknown purposes. Or maybe it's just their reproduction. Maybe the innards are fed to babies and the skin is left behind for them to assimilate.
Do you understand how fascination and terrifying this is, just to have it ruined by some contrived revenge rape plot?
And it doesn't even make any sense. Clearly, the alien life form is more than capable of defending itself. It never once acts out of fear or any emotion for that matter. But then at the end of the movie, all of the fucking sudden, it's this helpless, frightened little girl. What the actual fuck?! That plot is just as forced as the sex at the end of this movie. That's an hour and forty five I can't fucking get back.
Fuck the writer, fuck the director, fuck this movie...

What Does Xbox Mean?
Techopedia Explains Xbox
Xbox is a gaming console brand developed and owned by Microsoft. The game console is capable of connecting to a television or other display media. Xbox provides realistic graphics for games. The online gaming service in Xbox gave Microsoft an early foothold in the online gaming market and made it a strong competitor against other gaming consoles.
Consoles in the Xbox line include Xbox, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
The first of the series, the Xbox console, was developer friendly and had the ability to easily port personal computer games. It had an Ethernet port made for speedy online gaming and four controller ports for multiplayer gaming. It also came with hard drive for saving games and game content, a DVD player and multi-signal audio/video connections for easy connection to display media and home theater systems. The controller pad had analog sticks, directional pads, and six action buttons and was bulky compared to other game controllers at the time.
Xbox 360 had some similar features to its predecessor but had higher power with respect to CPU, memory and graphics. Unlike out-of-order execution in Xbox, Xbox 360 made use of in-order execution to reduce the CPU size, complexity and power demands. The motion-sensing peripheral Kinect was introduced, which allowed gamers to play using physical motions rather than using the controllers. Xbox 360 also introduced the non-subscription service called Xbox Live Free. Another new feature that Xbox 360 introduced was the capability of watching movies with the help of the Internet.
Xbox One is the third console in the Xbox family. It included a built-in battery for the controller and a much squarer design was adopted. Xbox One fixed some of the reliability issues found in Xbox 360, and is faster and more powerful than its predecessor with exponential increases memory, graphics and CPU. Kinect was no longer an optional feature and the scope of cloud increased with Xbox One. Xbox One is, however, not backward compatible with most games and applications of the previous two members of Xbox family.
The Xbox brand provides gamers the opportunity to play games online with help of Xbox Live. Game developer support is also high for Xbox. Microsoft has independent development studios to produce games exclusively for Xbox. The online community and support for Xbox is large compared to other gaming consoles.

Q: Automate the Deletion of Cookies Set in Firefox with ANY Scripting Language Besides JS Can anyone offer any guidance on this at all? Is this really so difficult? Powershell? Python? Whatever, just please send me in the right direction.

A: I'm not sure why you need or want this - if it is for personal use, you can use the extension Cookie AutoDelete which will auto delete all the cookies for websites you visit when you close a tab.

A: I'm not sure how you would like to automate, but in PowerShell you can delete Firefox cookies like this:
if (Get-Process -Name firefox -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue) {
    Write-Warning ("Firefox process(es) are still running. Please close all before removing the cookies.`r`n" +
                   "Use Get-Process -Name firefox -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Stop-Process -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue")
}
else {
    $pathRoaming = "$($env:APPDATA)\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*.default*"
    if (Test-Path -Path $pathRoaming -PathType Container) {
        $cookies = @()
        foreach ($path in (Resolve-Path $pathRoaming)) {
            $cookies += Get-ChildItem -Path $path -Filter 'cookies.sqlite*' -Recurse -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
        }
        # remove cookies.
        $cookies | ForEach-Object { Remove-Item $_.FullName -Force -Recurse -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -WhatIf }
    }
}

Take off the -WhatIf switch from the Remove-Item cmdlet if you are satisfied with the results shown in the console.
Hope that helps

Charles bridge prague map
Charles Bridge, the oldest bridge in Prague, was built on the site of the Judith Bridge, which was washed away by the floods in 1342. From 1870 it began to be called Charles Bridge, in memory of its founder, Emperor Charles IV. The map of Charles Bridge completed in 1402, is built in blocks of sandstone and flanked by towers at each end (side Malá Strana and Old Town side).

Alles nur geklaut ist das dritte Album der Leipziger Band Die Prinzen und wurde am 12. November 1993 veröffentlicht.

Hintergrund
Im September 1993 brachten die Prinzen die Single und das Video Alles nur geklaut heraus. Weitere Singles waren Überall, Du spinnst doch und Was soll ich ihr schenken. Von März bis Mai 1994 gab es zu diesem Album die Alles-nur-geklaut-Tour. Das dritte A-cappella-Album wurde am 11. November 1993 veröffentlicht. Gerne hätte sich das Quintett froschgrün geschminkt und golden gekrönt auf dem Cover gesehen, doch die Plattenfirma bestand auf einem gezeichneten Motiv, einer Seeräuberflagge mit Froschsilhouette, das eine gewisse Ähnlichkeit zum Vorgängercover aufweist. Die vorhandenen Froschkönig-Fotos wurden für das Backcover und die Pressepromotion verwendet. Die CD-Promotion beinhaltete Lebend-Dekorationen in Schaufenstern in den größten deutschen Städten, und andernorts, wo die Band sich nicht ins Schaufenster setzte, zumindest gigantische Handelsdekos. Das Album verkaufte sich mehr als 785.000 mal, wofür die Band eine Platin-Schallplatte, sowie die Goldene Stimmgabel erhielt.
Es hielt sich 41 Wochen, mit einem Peak auf dem 4. Platz, in den deutschen Album-Charts.
Zudem wurde die Gruppe im Veröffentlichungsjahr 1993 bei den ECHO-Verleihungen in den Kategorien "Gruppe National Rock/Pop" und "Videoclip national" ausgezeichnet.

Auf den späteren Alben veränderte sich der Stil, die Musik wurde rockiger und verwendete mehr Elektro-Elemente. Die Texte wurden aggressiver und sarkastischer. Der typische A-cappella-Gesang trat in den Hintergrund.

We had an amazing opportunity to learn about some great products from Southwire this year and wanted to share with you the videos.
They had a great launch of the Made In America Pliers and Strippers. Have you had a chance to get your hands on them yet?
During our visit we learned about some great Sumner products.


Putting the Middle East firmly on the F1 map, Bahrain is one of the smaller but more determined of the Gulf States. Once considered an island paradise and the home of the gods, Bahrain is an archipelago in the Middle East consisting of 33 islands.
Although terrorist threats have stripped off its mythical reputation, locals and visitors still find Bahrain a welcome respite from its staunch Islamic neighbors. Long stretches of beach and friendly locals contribute to Bahrain's warm, welcoming appeal. But despite its Western ties and evolving culture, what draws visitors to Bahrain is its antiquity – the centuries-old Tree of Life, the world's largest ancient necropolis, and a wealth of archaic buildings that attest to its rich and fascinating history.
What's Cool: Wayne Gretzky, polar bears, maple syrup, French influences, fantastic skiing, Mounties, Niagara Falls, Biôdome in Montreal, high level of safety, the world's largest mall, Rocky Mountains, beavers, Cariboo Gold Rush route, Monty Python's Lumberjack song!
What's Not: Freezing cold winters, short summers, compost toilets, huge distances, pesky mosquitoes, itchy blackflies, marauding moose, rivalry between French Canadians and the rest of the population, raccoons snatching your dinner.
Whenever you choose to visit you are going to bake! Bahrain is mostly arid, with very hot and humid summers and relatively mild winters. Sandstorms are common in the summer. Temperatures can reach 45 ºC from April to November, but are mitigated by occasional northerly winds. The best time to visit is October to March; November and April are hot, but bearable.
Bahrain has one international airport, located just outside Manama. There are no train services; local land travel is provided by a regular bus service connecting Dahran and central Manama. You can drive to Saudi Arabia via paved causeways. Gas is cheap, taxis are widely available, but drivers tend to overcharge foreigners. You'll need skill to to negotiate with the driver and insist on a metered fare.
Growing a big bushy 'Mujahedin' beard will help you blend in, but Bahrain is one of the less troubled Arabian nations. Tap water is considered safe in Bahrain, and most hotels have their own filtration systems. Bottled water is also widely available. Make sure your meat and poultry dishes are well-cooked and served hot.
The only significant health risk is Hepatitis B, which is endemic in the region. Hospitals are well-equipped, and emergency medical service is offered for a small fee. Terrorist threat is high, and there have been indiscriminate attacks on Western nationals. Take extra care in public places and at night, and if possible, leave your valuables (credit cards, passports) in secure places.
There'll be no hangovers in Bahrain, this Moslem country is strictly dry, but puffing on a hookah is permitted by the morality police. Cuisine is typical Middle Eastern, often favoring pitas, chick peas and hummus, and a generous use of spices, sesame seeds, mint and parsley. Restaurants serve both local and Western food in a wide range of prices. Luxury restaurants can be expensive even by Western standards, although the food is usually worth it. Adlyia and Exhibition Avenue offer decent meals for under one dinar.
Hotels are also varied, from five-star luxury to budget family hotels. Most hotels are competitively priced compared to US hotels. International chains such as the Ritz-Carlton are well-represented, and usually offer a pick-up service direct from the airport.
Unless you're planning to watch the GP, fry yourself in the baking Gulf sun or study the Koran, there is little to keep you in Bahrain for more than a few days.
Tree of Life: Bahrain's signature tourism icon, this large mesquite tree has mysteriously thrived on desert ground for hundreds of years. It currently serves as the resting place for locals traveling through the desert.
Bait Al-Qur'an (House of the Qur'an): housed in an attractive modern building, this museum displays a collection of Holy Qur'ans and rare manuscripts, as well as ancient calligraphy and Islamic art.
A'Ali Burial Mounds: giving Bahrain an excuse to open up to tourism, this is perhaps the world's largest prehistoric cemetery, a site which features thousands of burial mounds dating from 3000 BC to 600 AD.
Barbar Temples: no relation to Ali Barbar and his forty thieves, these three temples were supposedly built for the god Enki and his wife. Bizarrely, they are built on top of each other, with the bottom one built over a sacred well.
al-Areen Wildlife Sanctuary: with its desert beauty, the Sanctuary is home to several endangered species, including the nimble-legged Arabian onyx. A great place for those 'dune photos'.
Water sports: With its warm Gulf waters, Bahrain's coastal location makes it a great place for fishing, swimming, snorkeling, waterskiing, and scuba diving. You can rent boats for yachting and parasailing as well.
Camel rides: of course yes! Camels are not just for deserts you know – you can actually tour the city on a camel's back.
Shopping: get your bargaining turban on, the souks (markets) are a shopper's haven, selling everything from clothes and linens to interesting local foods. Check out the gold souk southeast of the market area for a great night time view.
Beaches: Al Jazair has everything you need for a relaxing day at the beach – miles of coastline, picnic areas, beach huts, and pretty pavilions. The coral reefs make a great underwater scene, though revealing bikinis might not go down too well.

Terrence Malick, Top Ten
Terrence Malick: The Definitive Ranking
October 14, 2020 November 1, 2020 davidmvining
A top seven, of nine movies, because I don't follow anyone's rules, not even my own. At least it's not a top ten, you know?
I wish more people shared my love of Terrence Malick's work. He is a mad genius that angers beyond rage half of the people he works with like Christopher Plummer and James Horner, and becomes a center of creativity for others like John Savage and John Fisk. Looking at his end results on their own, I have nothing but praise for the man and his work. His worst film, by my estimation, is still quite good. No other filmmaker I've seen has this kind of consistent quality in his work, even someone like Stanley Kubrick who stumbled in his early outings. Malick was on sure footing from the very beginning and, while he has evolved his style, has only become a stronger voice.
So, here is my ranking, which is probably the most pointless exercise since my ranking of Bergman's best films. Really, what's the difference in quality between most these? It's miniscule.
7. Knight of Cups
"It's a rough work that betrays its fractured production, but it's also intelligently assembled in the end. It certainly lacks a lot of the emotional punch of Malick's other films, but it's not really supposed to, I think."
6. Days of Heaven
"I'd never really appreciated just how pleasing the movie was to look at with the Paramount DVD. That being said, this is largely the one Malick that I have the most trouble feeling on an emotional level. Everything else gets me, but I think I now understand the distance I feel after my third viewing."
5. To the Wonder
"To the Wonder, though, is a touching and intimate movie about love in two distinct forms, and the ever present search for its manifestations in our lives."
4. Song to Song
"Song to Song is a remarkable film. Tender and sad with wonderful performances and a clear emotional throughline, it's the best Malick movie since The Tree of Life."
3. Badlands
"Badlands is one of the great debut films. It looks gorgeous, feels like a poem, is anchored by wonderful performances from Sheen and Spacek, and it speaks to a universal feeling in the modern world, even fifty years after it was made and seventy years after it was set."
2. A Hidden Life
"Malick took this small, nearly forgotten story of a hidden life (a phrase taken from the ending of Middlemarch by George Eliot) and demonstrates the cumulative power of those little actions that make up the world. For any other director this would be a crowning achievement, but for Malick this is just another remarkably great film in a remarkably great career."
1. Tie The Thin Red Line, The New World, and The Tree of Life
While not being a big fan of rankings, I sure do them a lot, but one thing I demand is that ties aren't a thing. I can't work around that here, though. All three of these movies I find to be the kind of masterpieces that directors only come along and make once in a long career if they're lucky. All three are the work of an artist at the absolute height of his power in full command of his gifts. I adore all three of these films and would never want to choose between them, so they tie.
"So, what is Malick trying to explore with these three characters (the three that I find the most prominent in the narrative)? I think it's that we are all bound for war, but not all of us are built for it. It's an exploration of how different types of men face the state that nature is always in. Do we embrace it? Do we act like it's not real? Do we fold under the weight of it? The individual portraits I find to be involving and moving and one of the reasons that I love the movie."
"The New World is a work of art. It's one of my favorite films. It hits me emotionally like very few films can. It is the work of a visionary and a genius. I adore this film."
"Terrence Malick is a genius. He understands the cinematic power of image and sound better than almost any other working director and most who have passed. He attacks his central questions from all angles, and never the one you might expect. He creates believable physical realities for his characters to explore and pursue his thematic obsessions. He has an incredibly distinctive cinematic voice, approaching large questions with intelligence and tenderness, while filling the frame with beautiful images that never feel staged or artificial."

The only one of his I've seen was Badlands, and that was rented on VHS from the Tower Records video department…which should tell you that this occurred quite a while ago. And my memory's not what it was supposed to be once.
Well, VHS is definitely the way to watch this stuff.

Citizenship Test Passes First Test (Australia)
Citizenship test passes first step
August 8, 2007 – 9:54AM
Federal parliament's lower house has approved plans to introduce a citizenship test, despite a Liberal backbencher splitting from his party over the move.
Greek-born Victorian MP Petro Georgiou, who has previously spoken out against the government over the test and other immigration issues, said he would not support the bill.
Mr Georgiou said the government's proposal turned its back on Australia's tradition of inclusive citizenship.
"I believe it imposes a punitive test," Mr Georgiou told parliament.
"I do not support the citizenship testing bill.
"I do not support it because there has been an utter failure to show that a new citizenship test is needed or it will operate fairly."
Mr Georgiou said his father – who came to Australia from Greece after the war, raised and educated his family and worked two jobs most of his life – was emblematic of the problems with the test.
"He was like hundreds of thousands of post war immigrants. He and they earnestly tried to learn English, but despite their best efforts they could not achieve a standard of English that would have enabled them to pass the test this parliament is about to endorse," he said.
Hundreds of thousands of Australians who spoke English as a first language would fail the test, he said, because many had poor literacy and knowledge of history and civics.
The test would stop many migrants committed to Australia from becoming citizens and therefore full members of the community, and "diminish us as a nation".
But Mr Georgiou was not given a chance to cross the floor over the bill as it passed without a division being called, as Labor supports the plan.
The government earlier moved to gag debate on the bill at 1pm and rush it through the House of Representatives, despite Labor's objections.
"This government is holding this parliament in contempt," opposition trade and regional development spokesman Simon Crean said.
"It is abusing every process known to reasonable decision making."
Immigration Minister Kevin Andrews said material that would form the basis of the 20-question computer-based test would highlight Australia's common values, history, heritage, symbols, institutions and laws.
"It will give migrants to Australia information they need to better understand what it means to be Australian, their rights as Australian citizens and what is expected of them in return," he said.
Although Labor supported the bill many MPs, including backbencher Brendan O'Connor, said it was difficult to judge the measure when the government had not even drafted the book on which the test questions will be based.
Several Labor amendments, including one that would make sure migrants receive enough free English training to pass the test, failed along party lines.
The Australian Citizenship Amendment (Citizenship Testing) Bill 2007 goes to the Senate for debate.

Users can send anonymous or signed reports.
The easy communication goes both ways. The mobile app system has a "customer resource management" feature that will allow the town to update citizens on the status of their reported concerns.
The town had been looking at various tracking systems to monitor all the requests, complaints and tips from citizens. Some companies wanted more than half-a-million dollars for just an instant-feedback recording system alone, Keller said.
"They were so costly, with this economy we couldn't afford to implement it," said Keller.
It cost the town only about $10,000 to develop a mobile app with that capability.
Keller said the town board and Mayor Jim Taylor, whom Keller called a "technology junkie," have been excited about the town's new 21st-century communication capabilities.
Taylor "realized right away how important it is for us to be on the cutting edge with this," said Keller.
The town worked closely with the staff of phone-call-tracking company GetAbby Inc. and the city of Charlotte, which launched the My Charlotte mobile app last year.
Keller said that as far as she knows, Matthews and Charlotte are the only two cities or towns with their own mobile application.
"It's a really good way for us to spend our money," said Keller. "We've got to look at communications differently and in a new way."
