The Sounds began the

Trailing 3-0, the Mud Hens got a run back with just one swing of the bat. LF Trayce Thompson tallied his second home run with Toledo, as the Hens now only trailed 3-1. After the Hens held the Sounds scoreless in the third inning, CF Jacob Robson led off the bottom half with a double, and would advance to third after a fly ball, hit by SS Zack Short. but would be out advancing after a groundball by DH Ryan Kreidler.

However, the Hens would leave the bases full, as they still trailed 3-1.
The Sounds would snag a run in the fourth, but the bats were still waking up for the Mud Hens in the bottom half. in the fourth inning, RF Brendon Davis walked with one out. Then, 2B Jamie Westbrook brough the deficit down to just one run. Westbrook (the former Nashville Sound) made it a 4-3 game, obtaining his fourth home run. Later in the inning, SS Zack Short reached base, after grounding into a double play. He would make up for it, after he stole his sixth bag of the season. As he stole second, Nashville would obtain a throwing error, which bounced to the outfield. This allowed Short to score from second to home, tying the game at four apiece.

Regina Humane Society limits cat intake from rural areas
The organization accepts cats from within the city and a 30-km area surrounding the city
Brandon Harder, Regina Leader-Post
Jennifer Dixon, a resident of Milestone, says when she brought injured cat Max, shown above, in to the Regina Humane Society, the organization told her it is not accepting animals from rural communities.	BRANDON HARDER / REGwp
Jennifer Dixon considers herself to be "kind of a cat lady."
She says she and another woman in the town of Milestone, about 55 kilometres south of Regina, try to take care of the cats they find wandering around their community.
She'd been monitoring a cat with an injured leg for some time, and when its leg didn't heal, she decided it needed professional attention.
"My daughter and I packed him up in our kennel and took him to the city," she said.
"We couldn't afford to take care of him, as we have cats of our own, and he needed medical treatment or to be euthanized."
She thought the Regina Humane Society (RHS) would take the cat in.
But she was wrong.

Bill Thorn, RHS Director of Marketing and Public Relations, said his organization accepts cats from within the city and a 30-kilometre area surrounding the city.
"Managed admissions are practised for felines outside the 30-km area of the city," Thorn said in an email. "Managed admissions allow the society to plan and match our capacity to provide humane care with animal intake."
The organization has been struggling to manage during what was described in October as an ongoing cat population crisis.
At that time, it slashed adoption fees to $50 for kittens under 16 weeks and waived them entirely for all others.
The organization was also seeking financial support.
Dixon said RHS staff informed her the organization's intake policy changed Jan. 1.
"Her exact words were that they were tired of being a dumping ground for the province's animals," Dixon said, noting that she was highly concerned about the animal, which had an abscess, leaving it "quite badly" injured.
"I was pretty horrified," she said.
With regard to cats from outside the city, RHS has practiced managed admissions for "some time," Thorn said.
"Our capacity to care does fluctuate and we currently (since Jan. 1) will only be able to take animals in from outside the 30-km radius if capacity exists," he wrote.
Not wanting to leave the animal in an injured state, Dixon said she took it to a vet who then contacted Regina Cat Rescue, which agreed to tend to the cat and find it a home.
Regina Cat Rescue is a volunteer organization, and its president said the group's resources are also limited.
"We only operate on donations," Sabrina Cataldo said, noting her organization has capped its acceptance of cats at 400 per year.
In 2017, it took in 403.
The cap was implemented after cat populations surged in 2016. That year, RHS took in 2,916 cats.
As a generalization, Regina Cat Rescue does not accept animals from rural areas either, as it has its hands full with the city's cats.
However, Cataldo said that sometimes Regina people will dump cats in rural communities located around the city, or along the highway.
Bearing that in mind, some exceptions are made.
"We'd really like to see some resources put in place to support rural municipalities in addressing cat overpopulation," she said.
Frances Wach, the executive director for the Saskatchewan SPCA, said each SPCA and humane society in the province is autonomous.
"Each one decides on their own policy and procedures," she said.
Saskatchewan does have a Stray Animals Act, but that only covers livestock, she said.
"Our thinking would be, ideally, each municipality should have a pound or a facility to care for stray animals."

THS Fright-A-Thon: Nightmare On Elm Street 1 or 3? Which Is Better?
Posted by Hunter Bolding | Oct 2, 2020 | Horror | 0 |
So we started the first film of THS's Fright-A-Thon Movie Marathon. It was A Nightmare On Elm Street. The marathon has an overall Wes Craven tinge to it. So after starting off with the first film that started the Freddy Krueger saga, it's still just as much of a horror classic as ever. There were a couple things I noticed while watching it again though. Most of us can agree that the top two ranked in the franchise should be either A Nightmare On Elm Street or A Nightmare On Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors. The first film was written and directed by Wes Craven. While Dream Warriors was directed by Chuck Russell. It was written by a team including: Wes Craven, Bruce Wagner, Frank Darabont, and Chuck Russell.
After the entertaining debacle known as A Nightmare On Elm Street: Freddy's Revenge, Wes Craven returned to the franchise. Dream Warriors expanded upon the mythos of the series. There are varying reasons why both films are great. Let's go over those reasons before we make a final judgement on the two films.
Why A Nightmare On Elm Street Is Fantastic
This….is God.
The original film is usually the best in any horror series. There are some exceptions to this rule, maybe the Evil Dead series, or possibly Friday the 13th. In the case of this franchise, the first one is the one that sets everything up. The film is atmospheric, it feels scary. It builds that tension that you know and love in horror movies, better than most. In addition to this tension, you have the bewilderment of the whole film. It's hard to tell at what points reality is separate from dreams. The character of Nancy is the strongest of the series. She's built up well and she has motivation in the writing.
The whole film just feels cohesive and strong. With whatever polish and humor was added to the later films, this one has a grit and the lower budget feel of it doesn't take anything away. Sometimes it's just better to keep it simple in horror. The character of Freddy Krueger has a simple backstory. He's a child murderer that escaped the law. The parents in the neighborhood took justice into their own hands and created a monster.
If you're in for a simple horror story that doesn't take too much thought, the first Nightmare is for you.
Why A Nightmare On Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors Is Fantastic
Let's party.
If the first film is great because it's a small story that spawned a franchise. The third story is great because it expands upon that story in the best way a horror film can. Turns out there were more kids on Elm Street than just Nancy. Freddy's motivation is now to get rid of the kids and Nancy. This film does the extra difficult job of introducing a new main character while also bringing back old characters in more than cameo roles. Heather Langenkamp returns as Nancy but doesn't overshadow Patricia Arquette's performance as Kristen. Together the two actresses lead the main group of kids against Freddy.
It all adds up to a more stylish and expensive looking film. The budget was definitely higher here for the kills and the effects. Freddy gets way more screen time as well. In the first film we're never really treated to a great long look at Freddy. In Dream Warriors we are. He's as much of a character as anyone else in the film.
The cast of characters is also just better here. You have John Saxon returning, but disgraced from the events of the first film. You have the entire crew of kids, and you have Craig Wasson as Neil, Nancy's love interest, that doesn't actually mess up the whole film like you would guess. Overall, it's more polished and a fantastic example of a horror sequel.
It Really Comes Down To What Type Of Horror You Want
I'll admit the title of this article is misleading. Because while I love both films, it really comes down to what kind of horror you like. If you like it with a bit of a bigger budget and more polished looking? Then Dream Warriors is for you. If you want the gritty, story-driven, less effects heavy, horror, the original Nightmare is what you want.
After the later sequels that are really only fun to watch for dedicated horror fans, these two films stick out of the crowd. Wes Craven's New Nightmare is a reimagining that is great but doesn't fit in with these two films. The Nightmare On Elm Street series is probably my favorite across horror. Each installment, even the bad ones, have merit and are at least entertaining.
So this Halloween season, make sure to give it it's proper respect and due!
What do you think is the better Nightmare film? The first or Dream Warriors? Let me know what you think in the comments or tell me on Twitter!

While email services are getting better at filtering out phishing attempts, some will inevitably get through. And at that point the onus is on you to spot phishing emails and act accordingly. But how good are you at spotting phishing emails?
Jigsaw, a subsidiary of Alphabet, has teamed up with Google, also a subsidiary of Alphabet, to create a quiz. This is designed to test your ability to spot phishing emails, and fits in with Jigsaw's claim that it "uses technology to make the world safer".
Google's Phishing Quiz tests you with eight examples inspired by real-life phishing attempts. It's your job to determine which of the emails are legit, and which are an attempt to steal your login credentials. And it's a lot harder than you might think.
The examples used range from Google Docs emails to requests to change passwords. As you work your way through the quiz, you'll be shown what to look for when trying to spot phishing emails. This includes lookalike URLs, typos, and insecure domains.
I managed to score 8 out of 8, which is useful given my job. I tend to err on the side of caution, which is why I gave a fake name and email address. After all, it's a quiz about phishing, and the first thing Google does is ask you to provide identifying information.
It's an unfortunate truth that you need to have your wits about you when using the internet these days. And it seems people are especially vulnerable to phishing attempts. The key is have your wits about you, and hover over links before clicking on them.
Regardless of how well you did at Google's Phishing Quiz, it pays to read up on the subject. With that in mind we suggest learning how to spot a phishing email How to Spot a Phishing Email How to Spot a Phishing Email Catching a phishing email is tough!

It's a beautiful day! If you're out and about, stop by the farm. We have a cooler full of delicious greens just picked. Spinach, salad mix, arugula, baby kale, a greens mix of lettuce, kale, arugula and baby spinach. All organic and has a taste, unlike much of the store bought stuff. (Did I just say that out loud?) We have honey and a limited amount of eggs. Fear not, I brought home 100 new laying hens yesterday!


The rumours of a Corner Gas animated television show floated around for ages. With a limited amount of a information being leaked it was easier to assume that the show had gone the way of so many before it, and would never see the light of day. However, with Corner Gas being the most popular television show to ever come out of the great white north there was still much hope. Sure enough, as things were starting to look bleak for the citizens of Dog River, we got our announcement and the show was airing within weeks.
I was quite skeptical of an animated revamp of this quirky television show at first. The original series worked on a formula that didn't require many settings, additional characters, or adventure. Actually, it didn't require much of anything to work. An animated version seemed unnecessary as the beauty of animation offers you the freedom to put as many characters in as many settings as you can imagine for a fraction of the cost and effort to make a live-action television show.
Much to my own surprise, even after the first episode, the animated formula really works for this concept. In the case of characters like Brent, Wanda, or Hank, there is a lot of day daydreaming and fantastic jokes conceived. The animation has opened the doors and allowed the humour to be visualized. Some of my favorite moments that came from these jokes included a cameo from Sarah McLachlan and a Sharknado rip-off called 'Hippothermea'.
One of the other reasons why the animated series works well for Corner Gas is the aging cast. Unfortunately, actors don't stay the same forever, unless you're Keanu Reeves. Corner Gas Animated allows the characters to stay as we remember them. There has even been done questions regarding continuity and where this show fits in with everything. And, I would believe it is safe to assume that the animated series fits somewhere in the later years of the original series. Before characters move on with bigger life choices, but long after Lacey has established herself in Dog River.
Needless to say, I have been a fan. Though I do have one gripe, and I have mentioned it in my reviews throughout the season. I'll preface this by saying that it is amazing that they were able to assemble the original cast. They built the show, the fan base, and they deserve to be here to continue it further. But, incorporating a starring role for eight characters in each and every episode is a tad overkill. Some of the episodes suffered from needless additions of plots that only seemed to be there so that each character would have a part to play. It just did not work for an animated program that should have a story progressing quickly to keep viewers attention.
Besides the one gripe, I carried the show continued to impress me. Week after week they were able to release fresh stories that were true to the show, but with a modern touch. Right from the first episode, they were able to bring us back to Dog River like we had never missed a beat. And, viewers agreed as the premiere ended up being the most watched in Comedy Networks history. The entire season was a complete success and it is so great to see as a fan of the original and as a Canadian. Now, we can get ready for another great season!

Shaelyn Otikor completed the Chicago Summer Business Institute (CSBI) program over twenty years ago and believes it was a vital part of her success as an adult. Growing up in a blue-collar household on Chicago's South Side, Shaelyn did not imagine herself pursuing a career in business until taking part in CSBI. CSBI taught her that she was not limited to certain career paths and that people like her could pursue a career in finance. After CSBI, Shaelyn attended DePaul University and got her MBA from the Booth School at the University of Chicago. Shaelyn is a vice president and relationship manager at Northern Trust Corporation. She believes CSBI opened her eyes to new possibilities for herself as a person. She also believes the program helps high performing students focus while showing them their own potential.
Yesenia Salgado participated in the Chicago Summer Business Institute (CSBI) program twice. In her first year, she completed an internship with Siebert Brandford Shank and Co. and came back for a second year to intern with CSBI itself. The most memorable task she completed was reading a book about bonds for Siebert Brandford Shank and Co. which inspired her to pursue a career in finance. Yesenia is thankful to the program for showing her how to complete a resume, interview, and more of the skills that are essential to pursuing a career in the business world. CSBI showed Yesenia that she could be a part of the finance world in downtown Chicago.
Kiana Richards lives in Chicago and is pursuing a career in real estate. Kiana is an alumnus of the Chicago Summer Business Institute program (CSBI) and points to CSBI as a reason for her success as an adult. While part of the program, Kiana interned with the City of Chicago which gave her the opportunity to attend a City Hall meeting where she was able to observe how buildings in the city get their building permits. This inspired her to go to grad school in commercial real estate. She believes the program showed her how to be more self-sufficient, a skill that has continued to serve her in the years since completing the program. The program helped her remain focused and taught her valuable time-management skills.
Samuel Owusu attends Davidson College in North Carolina. He is heavily involved with the African Students Association, volunteering, and student government. Through the Chicago Summer Business Institute (CSBI), Samuel interned at the City of Chicago Department of Finance in the accounts receivable department where he completed a vast array of tasks. Unlike many of the students in the CSBI program Samuel is not pursuing a career in finance. He is a Political Science major who hopes to run for office someday. His internship at the Chicago Department of Finance allowed him to meet many local Chicago politicians, including Mayor Rahm Emmanuel. Samuel wants to pursue politics to advance causes he believes in, like improving education. Samuel believes that the internship taught him the importance of being on time, being focused, and being organized, skills that carry over to school, and his chosen field. He credits the CSBI internship with teaching him how to speak up for himself and to advocate for the issues he believes in. In the little downtime Samuel has, he likes to play video games and workout.
Maryfer Palacios grew up in Chicago in the Humboldt Park neighborhood. She attends Holy Trinity High School where she participates in many extracurricular activities including basketball, art club, robotics, and many more student organizations. Maryfer interned with Cabrera Capital Markets through Chicago Summer Business Institute (CSBI). She completed a range of tasks including filing, working with spreadsheets, and helping out in the office wherever possible. Although the work was difficult, she felt like she learned how to be professional. The experience was valuable in that it helped Maryfer realize that she does not want to do a traditional desk job. She would instead like to be out in the world where she can do the most good, possibly a medical career. Maryfer believes that her internship helped her in her classes because it helped her learn how better to interact and communicate with other people, in particular she feels her public speaking skills have grown dramatically. The internship taught her that people like her can have a place in the professional world of downtown Chicago.
Mubin Hira lives in Albany Park in Chicago with his parents and two older siblings. Mubin attends the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign where he is undeclared but is leaning towards a finance-related major. He is involved in Phi Beta Lambda, an organization dedicated to cultivating business leaders. Through the Chicago Summer Business Institute (CSBI) he served as an accounting intern with the City of Chicago Department of Finance where his greatest accomplishment was completing an actual accounting journal entry. While working with CSBI, Mubin learned that he could get his career started, even though he's still a student. He believes that once you open your first door in your career, it leads to other doors opening. Growing up Mubin never saw himself working in finance downtown, but through CSBI he has realized that people in finance are real people just like him, and that the work of finance is rewarding and important. He considers his relationship with CSBI to be ongoing, even once his internship ends. In his spare time, Mubin likes to play basketball and listen to hip hop.

Rayfield Allied present piano stars across the world
Rayfield Allied is proud to present a growing roster of pianists, who have started the new year with a flurry of special concerts.
Leeds International Piano Competition Winner, Federico Colli thrilled audiences at London's Barbican early in January as he made his London concerto debut with the BBC Symphony Orchestra under its Chief Conductor Sakari Oramo. Stepping in at the last moment to play Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No 3, Colli received standing ovations from the audience as well as glowing reviews from the critics.
Named as "One to Watch" by Michael Church, International Piano Magazine (Jan/Feb 2015) Colli gives a recital at the Turner Sims, Southampton today and returns to the UK later this year for Shostakovich Piano Concerto No 1 with the Orchestra of Opera North under Kees Bakels. This season he makes his debut at the Concertgebouw Amsterdam, tours with the Orchestra della Toscana, performs with RAI National Symphony Orchestra and gives recitals in Rome, Milan, Ferrara, Brescia and at the Orpheus and Bacchus Festival in France.
Christian Blackshaw returned to the Singapore Symphony Orchestra to perform Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 19 in F major, K. 459 under the baton of Mo Neuhold. He performed two concerts on Friday 23rd and Saturday 24th January in Victoria Concert Hall as well as giving a master-class at the Yong Siew Conservatory of Music. Mervin Beng writes that his "sterling reputation" for Mozart "belies the technical demands of the piece, as does Blackshaw's elegance and lack of fuss at the keyboard" (The Straits Times Singapore).
Blackshaw performs next with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra under conductor Matthew Wood with Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 20 in D Minor, K. 466 on Sunday 8th March. Future recitals include his return to Southampton Turner Sims, Holkham Hall, Forde Abbey and the Leicester Piano Series this summer. The highly anticipated Third Volume of his Mozart Sonata cycle on Wigmore Hall Live is due to be released in April 2015.
Louis Lortie performed as part of the International Piano Series at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, London. It was a programme of two distinct halves, as the first included early works by Fauré and Scriabin and the second included much later works by the same composers. Louis captivated the audience with his beautiful lyricism and incredible virtuosity, not to mention his impressive stamina.
Lortie returns to London in March for a solo recital at Wigmore Hall. His programme includes Beethoven Piano Sonata No. 29 in B flat major and Liszt Piano Sonata in B minor. Details of this concert can be found on the Wigmore Hall website.
Robert Levin's all-Mozart project with the Academy of Ancient Music concludes with the final concert at the London Barbican Centre on Wednesday 4th February. They were at the Symphony Hall in Birmingham on Thursday 29th January, where he received a scintillating welcome. The programme includes Piano Concertos No. 24 in C minor and No. 25 in C major, directed by Levin from the fortepiano. Later this month, Levin joins Steven Isserlis on tour with the Beethoven Cello Sonatas in Salzburg, Berne, Cleveland and Vancouver before performing all five Beethoven Piano Concerti with the Reno Chamber Orchestra in April. He returns to the Academy of Ancient Music this summer for more Mozart before performing at the Verbier Festival in Switzerland.
Rayfield Allied's latest addition to the pianist roster, Sergio Tiempo, will perform a lunchtime concert at LSO St Luke's with Natalie Clein today. Tiempo will join Clein in Shostakovich's Cello Sonata in D minor as well as treating the audience to a selection of Chopin preludes. For more information about this concert, please visit the London Symphony Orchestra website.
Later this season Tiempo performs Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto No 1 with the Queensland Symphony Orchestra and has recital tours in China and Japan.

I have said it before. Commenters over at CenterNetworks said I was crazy. They extolled the virtues of the market leading YouTube. But the numbers don't lie. A year and a half later, Google can only muster approximately $1 CPMs from advertising on YouTube.
Most advertising on YouTube is not monetizeable so this CPM is for the really good stuff! So with all of Google's market power, this is the best that could be done.
The only company in the world that might have had a chance to make money with YouTube can't, and so the 1.5 Billion dollar price Google paid for YouTube was an enormous overpayment. If anyone else had gotten their hands on it they would have shut it down by now.
It also raises the question, will Google just continue to run YouTube as a community charity? How long can this continue? Growth *will* flatten at Google at some point. That point may be now but none of us is quite sure. But in any case it will come at some point. And when that day comes, the chickens really may come home to roost.
Google will have to decide if they can withstand the market ire generated by shutting down or curtailing YouTube in some way, or if they can withstand subsidizing most of the world's video consumption indefinitely. I'm really not a short term thinker. But I just can't see a way to make user generated video worth anything to anybody in the near term. This usually wouldn't be a problem but in the case of video, waiting for the long term is really expensive.
Then again, perhaps Google's proprietary network and ISP transit agreements give them a low enough cost basis to uniquely position them to subsidize the world's video consumption without getting killed. I'd sure love to get some of that Google charity directly though!

The Art of Watchmaking: Q&A with Hublot CEO Ricardo Guadalupe
by Jennifer Agress
When it comes to high-end watch design, no one does it better than Hublot.
Led by CEO Ricardo Guadalupe, this Swiss leader in luxury timepieces is always setting standards in style and innovation; and this week was certainly no exception. Kicking off Art Basel in style (as only Hublot would), the opening reception of Cruz-Diez Bidimensional Research celebrated the launch of Classic Fusion Cruz Diez, a three-piece collaborative collection between Hublot and international kinetic pop artist, Carlos Cruz-Diez.
With only 100 pieces being made and sold worldwide – one in 18K King gold, one black ceramic and one Tourbillon – the last of which is priced at $210K, we were hooked. And to find out more about the venture, we took a moment to chat with the Hublot CEO Ricardo Guadalupe, himself, to talk watches, Carlos Cruz-Diez, and of course, all that is wonderful about Hublot:
What made you want to collaborate with Carlos Cruz-Diez? "It's a question of emotion. We are a brand that is doing a lot of different things, and we try always to be different, the first at something, or unique. In this case, I think that we met somebody who is making incredible art: Mr. Cruz-Diez. He had the idea of making a watch, and I said, 'Why not? Let's do it together.' I think we found the best technical solution to really recreate the emotion in his art."
Design aside, what does this collaboration bring to the table? "There is a new design, but in addition, there is this kinetic effect that, when the watch is moving, you can always see a different view of Mr. Cruz-Diez' work. I think it's a living piece of art."
Tell us what it's like to work with Mr. Cruz-Diez. "He came to our factory, and I went to his studios in Paris and in Panama. It was so motivating, because he already designed a watch many years ago, but he never found a brand hat could do what he wanted. We have been able to do what he wanted and he was really satisfied by the result."
Why is this collection so special? "The collection is very limited – there's a gold, a ceramic and a Tourbillon watch. Altogether, there are only 100 pieces available for sale worldwide. It's rare, just like Mr. Cruz-Diez' art."
Which Classic Fusion Cruz Diez watch is your favorite? "They're all beautiful, but the ceramic one is my personal favorite. Hublot is all about the 'art of fusion.' We invented a brand using new materials, and ceramic is part of it."
What makes Hublot so special? "The philosophy of the brand, what we call 'the art of fusion and watchmaking,' makes us very different from any other brand. The other brands make nice watches, but they repeat the tradition. They repeat the past. We respect the past, but we use the technology of today to make watches that point us into the future. We're using rubber, carbon fiber, ceramic and Hublot's "magic gold," a new alloy of gold that we've invented. So from this point of view, we are totally different."
