We've always kept a keen eye on our prices but last week we took this to a whole new level. We introduced weekly "coupon codes" to our newsletter, and literally hundreds of you took us up on them. This is our way of rewarding loyal subscribers with discounts and offers that we couldn't normally put on the site.
If you already have an account you can just log in and opt in to the newsletter.
We're going to be reserving our best deals for the coupons, so you can think of it as a type of club, for those in the know.
Right now we're only offering these deals for one week at a time, so you're going to have to move quick when you get that email.
As an extra bonus we're giving away a free pump with any order for anyone who tells 5 friends about these new coupons.


A couple in Pittsburgh that sued Google claiming that the Street View on Google Maps is a reckless invasion of their privacy has lost their case.
However, the U.S. District Court for Western Pennsylvania wasn't impressed by the suit and dismissed it (PDF) Tuesday, saying the Borings "failed to state a claim under any count."
Ironically, the Borings' suit subjected themselves to even more public exposure by filing the lawsuit, which included their home address. In addition, the Allegheny County's Office of Property Assessments included a photo of the home on its Web site.
The Borings are not alone in their ire toward the Google Maps feature. As reported earlier, residents in California's Humboldt County complained that the drivers who are hired to collect the images are disregarding private property signs and driving up private roads. In January, a private Minnesota community near St. Paul, unhappy that images of its streets and homes appeared on the site, demanded Google remove the images, which the company did.
However, Google claims to be legally allowed to photograph on private roads, arguing that privacy no longer exists in this age of satellite and aerial imagery.
Not long after the feature launched in May 2007, privacy advocates criticized Google for displaying photographs that included people's faces and car license plates. And last May, the company announced that it had begun testing face-blurring technology for the service.


I like to tell people my clients are "innovators". I love saying this, as I fancy myself a fairly innovative attorney. (Not sure if you've noticed, but I don't conform to the typical lawyer profile.) Steven Richardson, President of DOC in a box, is the perfect example of one of my innovative clients: he's pushing the boundaries of telemedicine and CRUSHING it. I really enjoy "talking telemedicine" with Steven - it's fascinating how his brain works and how he and his team are on the front lines of telemedicine technology. I recently asked him more about his willingness to break the mold and the challenges he faces.

The British Society for Paediatric and Adolescent Gynaecology
Aims of the Society
National Committee
South East & London
The management of young children and adolescents with gynaecological problems (aged 0-18 years inclusive, with appropriate transition arrangements) requires sensitivity in relation to their specific needs. This extends from immediate service provision in acute cases to the more long term management of complex issues relating to sexual function, psychology, endocrinology and fertility.
The British Society for Paediatric & Adolescent Gynaecology (the Society) is a multidisciplinary Society which was created in 2000 and which has sought to develop a network of Clinical Centres where children and adolescents with gynaecological problems can be seen, assessed and managed to a high standard.
The Department of Health has recently acknowledged the need for a network of specific centres to deal with complex cases relating to the management of Disorders of Sex Development (DSD) as well as other complex and rare cases. The age of presentation of DSD will vary depending on the type of problem and the timing of its manifestation and can occur within the spectrum ranging from the neonatal period to late adolescence and beyond. The prevalence of other congenital anomalies present varies depending upon the population studied and the age at which the problem is likely to be detected.

Last year, we had to sell both my in-laws' house and our house within six months. Mark and Mindy made both sales a piece of cake. They were knowledgeable, polite, answered all of our phone calls promptly, and both places sold quickly!


You must request a special disc (free) from Netflix to use the service.
The disc needs to be in the system whenever you decide to use Netflix.
Stupid rules? Yes, but necessary to work around the Microsoft agreement, allowing the 360 to be the sole console allowed the convenience of Netflix on the Dashboard.

Q: Hom-spaces of Segal spaces versus their realization in $\mathbf{Cat}$ Consider the $\infty$-category of simplicial spaces $s\mathcal{S} = \mathbf{P}(\Delta)$. The
inclusion $\Delta \to \mathbf{Cat}$ induces a left adjoint
$i_! : s\mathcal{S} \to \mathbf{Cat}$. It is well-known that this functor induces an
equivalence between $\mathbf{Cat}$ and the subcategory of complete Segal spaces
$\mathbf{CSS} \subseteq s\mathcal{S}$. We have a slightly larger subcategory of $s\mathcal{S}$
spanned by Segal spaces, those for simplicial spaces $W$ for which the canonical map
$W_n \to W_1 \times_{W_0} \dots \times_{W_0} W_1$ is an isomorphism.
My question concerns the behavior of $i_!$ on Segal spaces. Specifically, these notes (large pdf) claim
that for a Segal space $W$ and two points $x,y \in W_0$, there is a canonical equivalence (I.65.2) between $W(1)_{x,y}$ and $\mathsf{hom}_{i_! W}(x,y)$
Does anyone know of a reference or argument for this fact? It is clear enough for complete Segal spaces, but the notes seem to indicate that this result as used as an intermediate step to establish the equivalence between quasicategories and complete Segal spaces. However, in the cited proofs by Joyal-Tierney and Lurie, I am unable to see how this particular equivalence is used or established.

Математи́ческая фи́зика — теория математических моделей физических явлений. Она относится к математическим наукам; критерий истины в ней — математическое доказательство. Однако, в отличие от чисто математических наук, в математической физике исследуются физические задачи на математическом уровне, а результаты представляются в виде теорем, графиков, таблиц и т. д. и получают физическую интерпретацию. При таком широком понимании математической физики к ней следует относить и такие разделы механики, как теоретическая механика, гидродинамика и теория упругости. Редакционная коллегия журнала Journal of Mathematical Physics определяет математическую физику как «применение математики к физическим задачам и разработка математических методов, подходящих для таких приложений и для формулировок физических теорий».

Близким понятием является теоретическая физика, которая разрабатывает новые математические модели для явлений, удовлетворительных моделей которых пока не построено, и иногда жертвует математической строгостью методов и моделей, в то время как математическая физика обычно формулирует и глубоко исследует уже построенные модели на математическом уровне строгости.

История развития

Классическая математическая физика
Первоначально математическая физика сводилась к краевым задачам для дифференциальных уравнений. Это направление составляет предмет классической математической физики, которая сохраняет важное значение и в настоящее время.

Классическая математическая физика развивалась со времён Исаака Ньютона параллельно с развитием физики и математики. В конце XVII века было открыто дифференциальное и интегральное исчисление (И. Ньютон, Г. Лейбниц) и сформулированы основные законы классической механики и закон всемирного тяготения (И. Ньютон). В XVIII веке методы математической физики начали формироваться при изучении колебаний струн, стержней, маятников, а также задач, связанных с акустикой и гидродинамикой; закладываются основы аналитической механики (Ж. Даламбер, Л. Эйлер, Д. Бернулли, Ж. Лагранж, К. Гаусс, П. Лаплас). В XIX веке методы математической физики получили новое развитие в связи с задачами теплопроводности, диффузии, теории упругости, оптики, электродинамики, нелинейными волновыми процессами и т. д.; создаются теория потенциала, теория устойчивости движения (Ж. Фурье, С. Пуассон, Л. Больцман, О. Коши, М. В. Остроградский, П. Дирихле, Дж. К. Максвелл, Б. Риман, С. В. Ковалевская, Д. Стокс, Г. Р. Кирхгоф, А. Пуанкаре, А. М. Ляпунов, В. А. Стеклов, Д. Гильберт, Ж. Адамар, А. Н. Тихонов — некоторые из указанных здесь ученых творили и в XX веке или на рубеже XX и XIX веков). В XX веке возникают новые задачи газовой динамики, теории переноса частиц и физики плазмы.

Современная математическая физика
В XX в. появляются новые разделы физики: квантовая механика, квантовая теория поля, квантовая статистическая физика, теория относительности, гравитация, синергетика (А. Пуанкаре, Д. Гильберт, П. Дирак, А. Эйнштейн, Н. Н. Боголюбов, В. А. Фок, Э. Шрёдингер, Г. Вейль, Р. Фейнман, Дж. фон Нейман, В. Гейзенберг, И. Пригожин, С. Курдюмов). Достаточно особое место занимает математическая физика биологических объектов, изучающая действие физических законов на биологическом уровне организации вещества и энергии и в России развиваемая, в частности, на базе ИПМ РАН.

Для изучения этих явлений множество используемых математических средств значительно расширяется: наряду с традиционными областями математики стали широко применяться теория операторов, теория обобщённых функций, теория функций многих комплексных переменных, топологические и алгебраические методы, теория чисел, p-адический анализ, асимптотические и вычислительные методы. С появлением ЭВМ существенно расширился класс математических моделей, допускающих детальный анализ; появилась реальная возможность ставить вычислительные эксперименты, например моделировать взрыв атомной бомбы или работу атомного реактора . В этом интенсивном взаимодействии современной теоретической физики и современной математики оформилась новая область — современная математическая физика. Её модели не всегда сводятся к краевым задачам для дифференциальных уравнений, они часто формулируются в виде системы аксиом.

X Factor finalist Danyl Johnson has already played his dream gig – in Mel's Bar in ITV's award-winning comedy Benidorm.
The 28-year-old, who now lives in Woodley, was an Arborfield lad teaching dance and drama at Starmaker Theatre Company in Southcote when he got his break.
He made his name in the sixth series of iconic talent show X Factor, facing the judges alongside Olly Murs, Stacey Solomon and the eventual 2009 winner, Joe McElderry.
Since then, his work has included touring and appearing at Butlins holiday centres in Bognor Regis, Minehead and Skegness with X Factor and Britain's Got Talent stars including Olly, Stacey and comedy father-and-son duo Stavros Flatley.
Danyl's own show is booked for Butlins throughout this year and this week he confirmed he has another exciting project in the pipeline – although he is remaining tight-lipped, telling getreading it had to be "a secret" at the moment.
But he was more than happy to talk about his appearance in Benidorm, in the last episode of the current series due to air on Friday, April 1.
Danyl said: "It was recorded back in November over three days, which was very intense – long working hours and enjoying the nightlife with the cast as well.
The Joe Cocker version of The Beatles' With A Little Help From My Friends was Danyl's audition piece on X Factor. Simon Cowell, who mentored Danyl, said it was the best first audition he had ever heard.
Danyl's Benidorm debut followed a chance meeting with the writer of the award-winning sitcom, which was named the most popular comedy programme at the National Television Awards this year and previously in 2008. Danyl explained: "Derren Litten sent me a boxed set of Benidorm and said 'well done' when I was doing X Factor.
Danyl said he thought Derren was pulling his leg when he talked about Danyl taking a cameo role in Benidorm – as Cilla Black has also done – but then the plane ticket was booked and he was off. Becoming a household name through X Factor was one dream come true for Danyl, and this is another.

Fight against people smugglers: Darmanin launches a "Franco-British intelligence unit"
July 13, 2020 TLB Staff GOVERNMENT 0
ER Editor: Gerald Darmanin is one of Macron's new appointments, as Minister of the Interior, after a very recent cabinet reshuffle that has taken a significant turn to the 'right' in some respects, to literally that of Nicolas Sarkozy's government with some key appointees coming from Sarkozy's administration.
Early this past Friday, two spots close to the notorious migrant "jungle" outside of Calais, where residents have long suffered from this unwelcome encampment, were cleared by police starting at 5am and lasting through the morning. Around 550 people were taken away, variously, to migrant reception centers elsewhere in France, or taken in for police questioning. This link, although in French, gives some interesting video footage of the event (see here). The report also mentions how, with the summer weather conditions, more migrants have been found in the Calais area; the government only admits to around 750 whereas a migrant support organization claims 1,200.
So, Sunday morning (yesterday, July 12), UK Home Secretary Priti Patel and
Darmanin made a visit to the area to pledge a new agreement to fight the migrant traffickers.
As we reported a few days ago via Migrant Watch UK (A Threat To British Workers As Record Unemployment Looms), many more people are indeed crossing the Channel. But more alarmingly, the Johnson govt has launched a scheme to increase migrant worker employment in the UK within many categories. This, as the unemployment carnage of the unnecessary covid lockdown takes effect, which has been more protracted and damaging in the UK.
One can only wonder at the window dressing Patel and Darmanin are engaged in here.
The Fight Against People Smugglers: Darmanin Launches a 'Franco-British intelligence unit'
Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin signed on Sunday in Calais (Pas-de-Calais) with his British counterpart Priti Patel an agreement creating "a Franco-British intelligence unit" in the fight against migrant smugglers.
"For the first time, six British and then six French police officers, in Coquelles, will be able to work upstream on the fight against smugglers," he said at a press briefing on the outskirts of the former 'Jungle' in Calais.
The smugglers "are those who take advantage of the human distress of people who want to cross the Channel and who, no doubt today, are still not punished enough", he continued after his first visit to Calais as Interior Minister.
Accompanied by his Minister of Citizenship, Marlene Schiappa, he met with his British counterpart, Priti Patel, and the Deputy Minister for Immigration, Chris Philip, among others.
This "pre-judicial" phase will be implemented "immediately".
"We will help the people of Calais, the whole of the coastline and the police forces" to "be in contact with our British friends in a return to tranquillity", he assured.
The agreement aims to "create a Franco-British intelligence cell. It will enable our respective services to share in an operational manner the information they hold, in particular on smuggling routes," Mr Darmanin said on Twitter.
On Sunday, 57 migrants whose boats were in difficulty were rescued in the Channel as they tried to reach Britain. The day before, another 21 people had been rescued.
It is "important that our British friends realise" that if migrants come here to Calais, it is "to cross the Channel and the Minister was reminded that we need more resources, the British government has done a lot to protect the coastline but we still need more resources both in terms of equipment and men", Mr Darmanin insisted.
On Friday, state and police services expelled more than 500 migrants from an industrial zone in Calais and took them to reception or administrative detention centres.

The International Dialogue for the Evaluation of Allergens (IDEA) welcomes the publication of a Draft Opinion on Skin Sensitization Quantitative Risk Assessment for Fragrance Ingredients (QRA2).
The Draft Opinion, published by the European Commission's Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) on 20 November, assesses progress on the work undertaken by IDEA, a project that brings together a variety of stakeholder, including academics, clinicians and industry scientists. One of IDEA's key tasks since it was established in 2012 has been to develop a revised version of the method of quantitative risk assessment (QRA2).
IDEA is pleased to note the Committee's acknowledgement of significant progress in the methodology since the initial publication of the QRA in 2008, and its support for the numerous additional considerations and refinements that have been incorporated in the proposed revised methodology.
IDEA also recognizes and welcomes the additional suggestions for improvements made by the Committee. Like the SCCS, we firmly believe that these improvements to the QRA2 will lead to the development of a useful methodology not only for risk assessment of fragrance allergens, but potentially also for other cosmetic ingredients.
We look forward to using the two-month consultation period to hold further discussions and provide additional clarifications, and to continuing our contribution to the development of a robust system of risk assessment.

May Allahu ta'ala bless thee with the honour of making progress in the true way of the Shari'at [1]! The end of the world has drawn near. Darknesses of disbelief and wrongdoing have covered everywhere. All people are caught in the storms caused by these darknesses. We have been looking for a hero to recover one Sunnat [2] and to eliminate bid'ats [3]. The right way cannot be found without the lights of our Prophet's Sunnats. There cannot be salvation without adapting ourselves to the Messenger of Allah. Making progress in a path of Tasawwuf [4] and thus attaining love of Allahu ta'ala requires following the Habib (Darling, Beloved one) of Allahu ta'ala. The thirty-first ayat-i-karima [5] of Al-i-'Imran sura [6], which purports, "If you love Allahu ta'ala adapt yourselves to me! Allahu ta'ala loves those who follow me," is a witness confirming our statements. A person's attaining happiness depends on his adapting himself to the chief of all religious and worldly leaders in all his habits and worships and, in short, whatsoever he may be doing. As we so often witness in worldly affairs, one always feels a strong affection for those who resemble one's darling. One likes the people liked by one's darling and hates the darling's enemies. All the perfections and high ranks to be attained physically and spiritually are dependent upon loving the Messenger of Allah. This is the only criterion to assess the degree of a person's maturity. By the same token, the most valuable deed and worship is to love the Awliya [7], the people loved by Allahu ta'ala, and to hate His enemies. For this is the greatest sign of love. The feeling of sympathy for the friend's friends and antipathy for his enemies occurs spontaneously. A lover is like a mad person in this respect. It was said: "Unless a person is said to be insane, his iman will not be perfect." A person who is not so cannot have had a share from love. In this respect, the saying, "There cannot be closeness (to one of two opposites) unless one is far (from the other)." Some ignorant people say in this connection that a person who loves hadrat [8] Ali ought to hate the greater ones of the Ashab-i-kiram [9]. This allegation is quite wrong. For, what a lover should hate is the darling's enemies, not the darling's friends. Allahu ta'ala says about the As-hab-ikiram, as is purported in the twenty-ninth ayat of the Fat-h sura: "They are very merciful towards one another." He informs that they are merciful to one another. This ayat-i-karima shows clearly that the As-hab-i-kiram had very tender and continuous mercy on one another and informs that such things as animosity, grudge, envy and hostility, which are quite incompatible with love, never existed among them. A hadith-i sharif states, "The most merciful person among my Ummat [10] is Abu Bakr." Could it ever be supposed that the most merciful member of this Ummat had fostered hatred and enmity towards this Ummat?
Allahu ta'ala said to Musa (Moses) 'alaihis-salam': "Hast thou ever performed a good deed for Mine sake?" He replied, "Ya Rabbi! I have performed salat [11], fasted, given the (alms called) zakat [12], and made dhikr (remembering Allahu taala) of Thine Name for Thine sake." Upon this Allahu ta'ala declared, "Thine salat is burhan for thee [it is a token to show that you are a Believer]. Fasting is a curtain [protecting you from Hell fire]. Zakat is a zil (shadow). Dhikr is a nur (light, halo). What hast thou done for Me?" When hadrat Musa asked, "Ya Rabbi! What is the good deed to be done for Thee," the divine answer came: "Hast thou loved those whom I love? Hast thou become hostile to Mine enemies?" Upon this, Musa 'alaihis-salam' realized that the deed Allahu ta'ala loved best was Hubb-i-fi'llah and bughd-i-fi'llah (Love for the sake of Allah and enmity for the sake of Allah).
If any Wali [13] appears to you or helps you (when you are in a difficult position), you should ascribe this to your own Murshid [14]. You should focus your tawajjuh on one source (Murshid).
It is sunnat to attend an invitation. However, there are stipulations for this. For instance, the dinner party should not be intended for ostentation or fame; the food offered should be halal [15]; there should not be any lahw [musical instruments] or lu'b [dances, women]; the feast should be open to the public. If these conditions are observed in a dinner party, one should attend it with the intention of performing a deed which is sunnat and not in order, for instance, to satiate one's hunger or for other purposes. Sufyan-i-Sawri states, "If a person invites (others) to a dinner without making niyyat (intention), one sin will be recorded (in his book of deeds). If a person attends an invitation for dinner without making niyyat, two sins will be recorded for him." It is not sunnat to attend an invitation one of whose conditions has not been fulfilled.
You write that your darling son has passed away. "Inna lillah wa inna ilaihi raji'un." May Haqq ta'ala bless you with great rewads in return (for your bereavement)! May He equip you with patience and bless you with complete acquiescence in the Qada-i-ilahi (destiny preordained by Allahu ta'ala)! The real loss would be to deprive oneself of the thawab (which Allahu ta'ala gives Believers for patience). It is stated in a hadith-i sharif, "The qada [16] befalling a Believer is (an) amazing (event). When something good befalls him he makes hamd and thanks. When a disaster befalls he makes hamd and shows patience. A Believer is given thawab (reward) for everything, even for offering a piece of food to his wife's mouth."
The symptom of iman's existence in a heart is that it dislikes disbelievers. [Disliking is done by the heart only. We should live in harmony with disbelievers or any others; while we should not cause harm to anybody, we should always keep in with everbody that it is required by our religion and harming/hurting disbelievers is certainly prohibited.]

[2] sunnat: i) (when used alone) The Shari'at; ii) (when used together with the name Book) The hadith of the Prophet. iii) (when used together with the word Fard) Any action, word or thought liked and commanded by the Prophet.

Easter is this Sunday. This means that my mother has started baking her annual batch of pizza rustica using a recipe from her aunt, a stubborn woman who, because of a lamp, did not speak to her sister (my grandmother) for six years. Per this aunt's instructions, my mother will whisk six eggs and some flat-leaf parsley with half a pound each of fontina and Parmesan cheeses before adding six pounds of ricotta and half a pound each of cubed salami, soppressata, prosciutto and ham. This will make three to four double-crust pies. Clearly, we're not light eaters.
Curious about its origins, I discovered that pizza rustica is an Easter staple in Naples. Nancy Harmon Jenkins, author of Cucina del Sole, has heard of it among the Pugliese and the Abruzzi and confirmed that it's pretty widely eaten in the whole southern Italian boot. In my house we actually call it "pizza gain", a phrase that's an Italian-American corruption derived from pizza ripiena or piena, meaning "stuffed" or "full" in Italian. In short, piena, or chiena in certain dialects, became chien', then "gain" as it got passed down across generations (and an ocean). These pies, most made from some combination of cheese, meats and eggs in a sweet crust, are meant to break the Lenten fast by offering many of the rich treats given up as a sacrifice.
And break the fast it does. David Greco, who runs the Arthur Avenue Café and Mike's Deli in the Bronx, makes a Neapolitan-style rustica based on his maternal grandmother's recipe that's very similar to my mother's – and one that weighs in at a little over three pounds a pie. He's been selling 200 a day for the past week. His secret is a touch of lemon zest in the crust. He also makes a Calabrian version from his father's family with chunks of soppressata and thinly-sliced prosciutto baked into an eggy focaccia. Frank Generoso of the Royal Crown Pastry Shop in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn says the key to his rustica is using the best quality ricotta that's firm but still creamy. A thick ricotta, he says, will hold up and not run all over the place.
My mother's is still the best, especially a couple of hours out of the oven. I should start fasting now to heighten the enjoyment of that first bite.

Bristol announced as European Green Capital for 2015
Bristol has won an international award that will see it become European Green Capital in 2015.
The announcement was made on Friday June 14, 2013 at a ceremony in Nantes, France, which holds the current title. Bristol beat rivals Brussels, Glasgow and Ljubljana – the capital of Slovenia – in a tightly fought contest.
On receiving the award in Nantes, Bristol Mayor George Ferguson welcomed the decision:
George Ferguson said: "This demonstrates Bristol's ambition to be a pioneering green city and is recognition for the many years of hard work and dedication by the city council, businesses and the people of Bristol to make our city more environmentally friendly.
"We will now be turning our attention to staging an inspiring programme of events in 2015 which will be centred around the idea of Bristol as a 'Laboratory for Change'. I have offered Bristol as a test-bed for environmental ideas in 2015, where we will develop pioneering practices which will not only benefit Bristol, but will hopefully become a model for cities around the world.
"We are very aware that we have much more work to do to become a truly sustainable city but we look forward to sharing that journey with people from across Bristol and Europe. This announcement couldn't have been better timed. This weekend sees the start of Bristol's BIG Green Week and the Bristol Festival of Nature, so I invite all to come into the heart of Bristol and celebrate with us."
Savita Custead was part of the team that presented Bristol's bid to the jury in Brussels in May and is the Chief Executive of the Bristol Natural History Consortium which organises the Bristol Festival of Nature.
She said: "Bristol is a hub of environmental businesses, organisations and individuals who work together to help promote green ideas and enjoy our natural spaces and resources. This weekend we have over 25 major exhibitors attending the Festival of Nature to share their love of the environment with the people of Bristol, and that is a perfect example of how our joined up thinking has helped us to become the European Green Capital for 2015."
Martin Bigg, Chair of the Bristol Green Capital Partnership said: "Winning this prestigious prize is a reflection of our commitment to the environment and is a fantastic opportunity to generate jobs and promote inward investment. The award demonstrates that turning Bristol into a low-carbon city is central to our vision and by greening the city we are helping to make Bristol an even more attractive place to live, work, visit and study."
The European Green Capital Award was set up in 2008 to reward cities that consistently achieve high environmental standards and are committed to further environmental improvement and sustainable development. The winning city must act as a role model and demonstrate a vision for the future that will inspire other cities to take similar action.
The Bristol Festival of Nature celebrated its 10th anniversary this year and ran from 15 to 16 June across Bristol's Harbourside. There were a host of new exhibitors and activities to entertain the whole family. The festival is the UK's largest free natural history event and saw over 25 major exhibitors host interactive activities including a pop-up butterfly garden, a filmmaking workshop with the BBC Natural History Unit and a Love Bugs exhibition from Bristol Zoo.
BIG Green Week is the UK's festival of eco ideas, art and entertainment and returns to the centre of Bristol from 15 to 23 June. Over 40,000 visitors are expected across two weekends of free family entertainment and nine days of inspiring talks, workshops, art, music, poetry, comedy and films. The final day will mark the launch of the Mayor's Make Sundays Special initiative when the heart of the old city will be freed of car traffic to make way for activities.

Will farm laws be stayed? SC to decide today
Chennai: The Supreme Court will pronounce orders today on various issues related to the new farm laws and the farmers' ongoing protest at Delhi borders and may take a call on setting up of a committee headed by a former Chief Justice of India (CJI) to find ways to resolve the impasse.
A bench, headed by Chief Justice S A Bobde, which indicated during the hearing that it may pass orders in parts on the issues concerning farm laws and farmers' protest, later uploaded the information on the website.
The bench on Monday heard a clutch of pleas challenging the new farm laws as well as the ones raising issues of citizens' right to move freely during the ongoing farmers' stir.
It pulled up the Centre for its handling of the farmers protest against the new farm laws saying it is extremely disappointed with the way negotiations between them were going.
It also indicated amply that it may go to the extent of staying the implementation of the contentious farm laws and refused to grant extra time to the Centre to explore the possibility of amicable solution saying it has already granted the government a 'long rope'.
On Monday, the top court asked the Central government whether it would pause the implementation of three controversial farm laws at the core of massive farmer protests near Delhi, saying the situation had gone worse.
"Tell us whether you will put the laws on hold or else we will do it. What's the prestige issue here?"
The bench further said, "Some people have committed suicide, old people and women are a part of the agitation. What is happening?' The bench added that not a single plea has been filed that said that the 'farm laws are good."
Demanding to know the conditions the farmers have been protesting in against the farm laws for over a month and amid a pandemic, CJI Bobde said, "We don't know what negotiations are going on? We want to set up the expert committee. We want the government to hold the laws in abeyance…if the Centre does not want to stay the implementation of farm laws, we will put a stay on it."
"Hold the laws in abeyance, why is it a prestige issue?" asked the Supreme Court.

Guilford's Zion Pryor DB Class Of 2019 Talks Viking Football & Rockford Area Football
So in a way to better understand the use of Deep Dish Football for Illinois recruits and the whole entire IHSA Football scene. Decided to do player profiles of players who you might not know or you might know , but you should respect them for their roles on their respective teams.
Zion Pryor Class of 2019 Guilford Defensive Back
COACH BIG PETE'S TAKE
Zion Pryor has all the measurables for playing defensive back at the college level. Great hip work, and makes big plays look easy along with his ability to read QBs. Key part will be this summer and early fall to see the progressions of Pryor.
Zion Pryor what does Rockford Area football mean to you?
Well first off I think that Rockford is over looked a little too much. Rockford has too many talented football players. I have many friends in Rockford and see them succeeding in their 7v7 teams and in the NIC10 and Big Northern. So it means a lot. It means a lot to me to play the game, and it means a lot to me when I see Rockford natives make it places and I want to be one of those people
They should know that I will do anything it takes to make the starting role. I am a hard worker, and an extremely big competitor. All I do is compete. I compete in the classroom, the weight room, and on the field.
Favorite memory from last season?
Geez I have a lot of those... I'd say when I got 21 tackles and beat Boylan in overtime
What motivates a Zion Pryor?
My family. I'm the oldest of 8, but my parents are the real motivation. My mom struggled raising a little bit because I was a handful. She was a single parent raising 3 kids by herself most of the time. She recently graduated college from Rockford University and received her nursing degree. My dad really wasn't successful growing up, he didn't really have someone to push him. So he was in and out of jail growing up. But he taught me that Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance. I live by that now. That's my motto.
What do you like about playing defensive back?
There's a lot of things. DB is the best position to play when it comes to football. Personally I like when the wide out is running that crossing route and when he catches that ball and turns up field, I'm there to lay him out. I LOVE contact and sometimes it makes me mad when I don't get the contact that I want. But after that it's goin to get that INT
Game this season you are looking most forward to?
I don't think I have one to be honest. But I would like to play against my close friend Demarian. But I'd say Hono. I really want to play them because I didn't get the opportunity to play them last year
Who is one player on Guliford that college coaches should take a look at that might not have?
Dontai Patrick or Amir Singletary but I think Tareiq Blake Washington is one of the most slept on players in Rockford

Chinatown Ice Cream Factory, FDNY Phoenix Society, The Wong Family
Edwin Wong, MOCA Journey Wall member and president of the Forest Hills Asian Association, who is the son of early MOCA supporter, Thomas D. Wong, decided to show support for FDNY EMS first responders that were working to save lives on Easter Sunday. Wong grew up Catholic and wanted to honor the memory of his recently deceased parents by donating ice cream from Chinatown Ice Cream Factory to three FDNY EMS stations in Queens : Woodside, Elmhurst, and Far Rockaway. The stations chosen were ones close to his parent's home in Maspeth and had previously resuscitated his father. He also encouraged members of the community to donate to the EMS FDNY help fund. While some of us may not have the capability to facilitate massive donations of PPE, even little things can show our appreciation for frontline and essential workers. The FDNY Phoenix Society leadership partnered to deliver the ice cream.

Aug 21, 14 Ali Vampire Diaries Comments Off on Julie Plec says a 'TVD,' 'Originals' crossover is in the works
Julie Plec says a 'TVD,' 'Originals' crossover is in the works
I love when EW talks to Julie Plec because we always get fun news (even when it is vague!)
Considering that The Originals is a spin-off of The Vampire Diaries and exists in the same universe, it doesn't seem all that hard for the shows to cross over every once in a while. But as executive producer Julie Plec mentioned at Comic-Con, it's harder than fans might think. Not only do the stories have to come together in a natural way, but the logistics of getting an actor (or two) from one show to another isn't the simplest task.
That being said, the two shows did manage a total of two crossovers last season—one when Tyler came to The Originals and another when Klaus and Rebekah made an appearance in Mystic Falls during TVD's 100th hour. And the good news is that it looks like the stories are going to converge again this year.
Plec revealed that, as of right now, there is a crossover in the works. "It looks like we are going to be able to do a crossover in the first half of the season, and I can't tell you what or who or when because it hasn't been shot yet, but things are looking good," she said. The one detail she would share? Despite his current status as an Original vampire, Alaric will not be the focus of this crossover—though Plec is not totally against the idea of that happening in the future. "I just love the idea of Matt Davis playing in the pool with Joe [Joseph Morgan] and Daniel [Gillies]," Plec said when pitched the idea.
But a crossover isn't the only thing fans (and Plec herself) have to look forward to this year. After more than five years as the showrunner of The Vampire Diaries, Plec is going to make her directorial debut in season 6. Why the long wait? Well, probably because she never wanted to do it before. "I was convinced I would be dreadful at it," Plec said. "I directed a school musical in college and it was being so terrible at directing that made me realize I was such a good producer and that put me on my first career path. [Laughs] Then I had to remind myself that I also thought I would absolutely positively never be a writer because I thought I was a terrible writer for years," she admitted. "I just was convinced, 'Oh, I'm good producer; I'm a s—ty writer.' And then I actually started writing and I thought, 'Oh, actually—I'm pretty good at this, at least intermittently good at this.'"
And thankfully, Plec's years of producing have left her feeling prepared and excited for the task. "The beauty of television, much more so than feature films, is when you are the showrunner, you make all those decisions anyway," she said. "You choose the casting and the hair and the makeup, and you oversee the art direction, and you sit and you edit each episode, and you talk through every single scene with the actual director in terms of what you want for tone and character journeys and emotion and sometimes even lenses and shots and how you want the camera to move. You can be that specific when you're collaborating with the director. So we all collectively, the producers and some of the actors and I, talked about it a lot and everybody seemed really excited to see what I could do behind the camera. So I'm gonna dive in and see how it goes."
Although it is subject to change, Plec is currently slotted to direct episode 15 of The Vampire Diaries.

Ossiach Abbey
Ossiach 1, 9570 Ossiach, Austria - 0.67 Km
Ossiach Abbey was founded around 1000 CE by the bavarian Graf Ozi I and his wife Irenburgis. In 1019, their son Ozi II sold the abbey to his brother Poppo, Patriarch of Aquileia. In 1028, Emperor Conrad II confirmed that Ossiach Abbey was part of the holdings of the Patriarch of Aquileia. In 1484, the church and monastery were destroyed by a fire. According to a legend from 1521, the Polish king Boleslaus spent his last years in the monastery, atoning for his sins as a mute penitent. After the monastery was dissolved in 1783, the monastery church became a parish church and the abbey passed into state ownership. The buildings were used as a barracks and later as a stud farm. In 1816, large parts, including the cloister court on the southern side of the church, were removed and the abbey threatened to fall into disrepair. In 1946, the Österreichische Bundesforste (the national forestry service) took over the property and prevented its demolition. The abbey was converted into a hotel. Under the auspices of Pastor Jakob Stingl, the abbey was completely restored from 1965-1975.Together with the musician and manager Helmut Wobisch, he also initiated the "Carinthian Summer". The Ossiach Abbey church has been the venue for this internationally renowned summer festival's musical events since 1969.

Transport service is no more a comfort; it is one of the most basic needs of day to day life. It is required by one and all to commute from one place to another. People need to travel for various reasons like work, recreation, visiting folks, medical treatments, wedding or other parties and much more. Businessmen and corporates need transport services to help their clients and other visitors move around the city conveniently. The era of walking and cycles is now history, especially in cities, towns and soon in villages and that too in these times of distant travelling and heavy traffic.
Alongside the development in civilization, the modes of transport are now becoming more and more advanced with newer innovations each day. The introduction and commencement of public transport was a big boon to travellers. However, low maintenance, over crowdedness, and improper services led to the start of privatized transportation services. There are innumerable private transportation service providers. They cover all services from supplying small to large vehicles, for short and long distance travelling, based on the requirement of the customer.
It is a known fact that there are a number of private transport providers available on call, providing immediate service. However, it is always best to hire from professionals, by planning and booking well in advance to avoid any issue like last minute no vehicles available or unprofessional driver at your doorstep. Besides, by booking professional services, you can avail the facility even in peak hours and according to your convenience, rather than adjusting to the service provider's beck and call.
Amongst the top companies providing private transportation services, there is this one company based out of Phoenix, Arizona offering ultimate services to customers' state and county wide. They cover all transport facilities from chartered buses, mini buses, luxurious and modern vehicles, traditional economic vehicles, airport transfers, RV repair, coach repair and much more.
They have a group of professional drivers and service providers, each one for the appropriate vehicle, holding the correct driver's license and carrying out services with utmost efficiency, giving the customers a pleasant travelling experience. Their apprentice is given special training in how to deal with customers with humility, patience and care. With years of experience in the field of travel and transport they are known for the best Phoenix Airport Transportation services. Apart from the quality of services provided, superior conditioned vehicles used, well organized back end systems and organization, one key advantage of this transport service company is their unbeatable, reasonable pricing. Try them once, and you'll want them hence.

Recycling & Waste Diversion
– A comprehensive recycling and waste diversion effort has accounted for approximately 120,000 Goodyear tires, and 200,000 gallons of oil recycled across NASCAR's top three national series annually, along with an estimated total of 25 million bottles and cans recycled at race events since 2008.
– In 2015, NASCAR piloted its first composting program at Richmond International Raceway, resulting in more than 5.4 tons of food going to compost and more than 1,000 meals being donated back into the local community.

"Yum, yum, yum!" say our menu notes describing this soup, which Geno Bahena made at the Beard House for a Mexico's Day of the Dead dinner. Not exactly sophisticated food criticism, we admit, but it is heartfelt. Though Bahena advises the cook to use stale store-bought tortillas for this soup, we know for a fact that the tortillas he served with the rest of his dinner were made by his mom and were hot off the press, so to speak.
Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tortilla strips and fry, turning frequently, until they are crisp. Drain on paper towels, and set aside. Cut the chiles into 1-inch squares and fry very briefly in the hot oil left in the pan, 3 or 4 seconds. Immediately remove and drain. Place the chiles in a small bowl, cover with boiling water, weight with a plate, and soak 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat the 1 tablespoon of lard or oil over medium-low heat in a four-quart saucepan. Add the onion and sauté until deep golden-brown, 12 to 15 minutes. While the onion is frying, drain the chiles and place in a blender or food processor. Add the roasted tomato, the garlic, and 1 cup of the broth. Purée and strain. Add to the onion, along with the remaining broth. Simmer 30 minutes. Season with salt. When you are ready to serve, add the chicken and continue to cook until it is warm, about 2 minutes.
To serve, set out the garnishes: put the sour cream in a bowl in the center of a serving platter. Around it, make mounds of the fried tortilla strips, the grated cheese, the lime wedges, and the avocado. Ladle the soup into bowls, and let everybody select their own garnishes "al gusto," as chef Bahena put it.

Q: Hide  with ng-hide/ng-show I've tried conditionally hiding and showing elements in ion-nav-buttons element and found it to be laggy. There's time where both elements are visible making a jarring transition.
<ion-nav-bar class="bar-stable">
   <ion-nav-buttons side="left">
            <button class="button button-icon button-clear ion-navicon" menu-toggle="left" ng-hide="option.extra"></button>

        </ion-nav-buttons>
</ion-nav-bar>

Is there a way to fix this I haven't thought of? I've tried ng-if and ng-switch and the same thing happens.Please find Plunker for the same.

A: I have resolved the issue using ng-class. ng-show/ng-hide is bit lagging thn ngclass. I have updated the plunker so you can check the same.

Have you ever felt like the Law of attraction is not working for you? It is because you are trying to control what is happening in your life. Do you often doubt why your desires are not manifesting? Do you feel that it is taking a long time to manifest?
When we know, understand and use Law of attraction in our life, we are entering a partnership with the universe. Universe is our partner. So if you doubt your partner, what will happen?
The problem is we keep waiting for the exact type of thing to manifest and fail to notice other small things coming your way. For example ,you were manifesting a parker pen and you found a pilot pen lying on the ground, but you didn't pick it up because you were waiting for the exact pen you manifested, so you end up getting frustrated for not manifesting your exact desire .But universe already manifested what is better and most suitable for you.
You were manifesting money ,you noticed a coin lying on the ground but you didn't pick it up because it was not the exact amount of money you manifested.
Actually it is a test from the universe to know whether you are prepared to receive your desires, and if you fail to notice the small things coming your way, you will end up manifesting nothing.
If you were manifesting a phone and within your heart you keep doubting whether you can afford it or when it is going to manifest? Or how it is going to manifest in your life? or deep within you feel that you can use the money you spend to buy a phone to help someone ,how can you manifest it?
Universe is like our parent .When you ask for an ice-cream ,sometimes your parents will buy you a chocolate because ,they know what is the best for you. So universe will not always manifest exactly what you asked for, but choose what is best for you.
You will ask for ice cream but universe thinks that chocolate is better for you ,so you will end up with the chocolate instead of the ice cream.
So it is important to let go of your control of how things are going to happen in your life and surrender to the divine source energy. Allow things to manifest on its own at the divine right timing instead of forcing them to happen. So surrender yourself to the universe and just accept the natural flow of things.
Trying to control the natural flow of things is like living in fear. Fear is a negative emotion.
You can't always control situations or people. The only thing you have control is your thoughts. Surrendering yourself to the universe is the best way to stay relaxed, calmed and let your desires manifest on its own at the divine right timing.
Have faith in the universe and trust the process of manifestation. The universe will always select what is best for you, It may not be exactly what you think is the best.
So let your partner decide what is the best for you and accept it when it comes to you and stay grateful. It will always be something better than you have imagined.

G-force induced loss of consciousness (abbreviated as G-LOC, pronounced 'GEE-lock') is a term generally used in aerospace physiology to describe a loss of consciousness occurring from excessive and sustained g-forces draining blood away from the brain causing cerebral hypoxia. The condition is most likely to affect pilots of high performance fighter and aerobatic aircraft or astronauts but is possible on some extreme amusement park rides. G-LOC incidents have caused fatal accidents in high performance aircraft capable of sustaining high g for extended periods. High-G training for pilots of high performance aircraft or spacecraft often includes ground training for G-LOC in special centrifuges, with some profiles exposing pilots to 9 g's for a sustained period.

What will be the qualification of a Mandarin Immersion Program (MIP) teacher?
California multiple subject credential with a Bilingual Authorization in Mandarin BCLAD/BAMA.
Do I need to speak Mandarin Chinese?
No, the program was designed for children of families who do not speak the Mandarin, and also for families whose native language is not English. For families who don't speak Mandarin at home, additional effort will need to be made to bring that language and culture into their homes; language is not just acquired at school. We hope to provide support through a variety of sources including after school programs local and private libraries and other Friends of MIP families.
1. Traditional characters carry more of Chinese history, culture, and essence of each word.
2. It's very easy to read simplified after learning traditional.
characters in use vs over 100,000 (although 8,000 are in regular use) traditional characters.
Do you teach Mandarin phonetics (ZhuYin) or Pin Yin(English characters)?
Along with traditional Chinese characters, Mandarin phonetics (Zhu Yin) will be taught as a fundamental building block which could be conceptually transferred to English phonetics. The Pin-Yin (English characters) will be taught in the upper grades.
Since the Mandarin Immersion program is not a program at a Title 1 School, the same ratios of regular kindergarten classes would apply. If extra funds are raised (other than District funds), the ratio can be lowered via Teacher Aides.
If there is an overwhelming interest from parents for the class how will children be selected to attend? A lottery system or is it based upon who signed up on the "interest list" first? Would children who live in the district have priority over children who do not?
A lottery system will take place. A series of mandatory parent meetings will take place to ensure only committed families are part of the process. Children who live in the district WILL have priority over out of district students.

In 2009, a small team decided to take part in the world's toughest endurance contest, The Volvo Ocean Race. A 20,000 mile circumnavigation of the globe.
In 2015, on their third attempt, they WON.
Their winning campaign produced not only the trophy, but a unique study into the workings of a high performance team, carried out in real-time by a top business school. The study goes beyond the well-established link between elite sport and the corporate world and covers a 22-month long campaign, from team set up through to victory.
The World Ocean Race Corporate Challenge brings these two seminal achievements together in a leadership and high performing team activator.
Uncover the reality of winning teams, with the very people who went to the ends of the earth, and returned victorious.
Co-hosted by Jamie Boag, Team Director of Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing, the programme is inspired by real life challenges the team faced during their winning campaign of the Volvo Ocean Race, and the learnings derived from their two prior attempts.
The programme runs as a full-day or half day experience. Comprising of a series of interactive modules, participants will experience a simulation of managing a racing team, learning how to:
Assemble a winning team
Sustain a winning team
Operate successfully within a winning team
Lead in an ever-changing environment
Significantly, participants will gain an understanding of the success secrets of high performing teams based on real life learnings and how to apply them to business situations.

PENN® Squall® LevelWind is rated 4.8 out of 5 by 40.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Atom8706 from Awesome reel great for big or medium game I bought the penn squall 50LW 1 year ago. and ever Since then I have been catching all the big fish,not one has got away. This reel is easy to use and has the power and smoothness to handle the biggest of fish. it also works great for medium game aswell. I would definitely recommend this reel for any fisherman that takes there fishing game seriously.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Gdaontour from No nonsense features at an affordable price After searching many brands and models of conventional level wind reels I found exactly the features at the right price for a reel that I will only use 4 or 5 times per year. Those feature are found in the SQL50LW. Levelwind line control, Lightweight, great spool capacity for 80 to 100 pound braid. Unfortunately I wished for a matching rod/ reel combo where the rod was 1 piece 8 foot length. This I did not find with Penn rods, thus the reel only purchase. This might be a feature Penn can offer in the future. Anyway I am looking forward to my near future offshore outings for reef and deep sea fish using my SQL50LW. A final note is my brother and sister in law purchased 1 each also. Kudos to Penn in providing these affordable options to thier customers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Chad Leton from LineCounter Size 20 Perfect for Musky! I've been using the PENN Squall Levelwind Size 20 Line Counter Series reels on all my musky trolling set ups for half a season now. The line capacity is perfect for spooling Berkley ProSpec 80# Line in regards to line counter calibration. I know my client's baits are running where they need to be. The HT-100 drag system is perfect for running big baits, adjusting speed, and going into turns without undo slipping, YET when a big girl decides to eat, it gets the job done right and hooks when trolling are right where they need to be in keeping the fish buttoned all the way to the net. Looking forward to the remaining season and years to come making Musky memories running Squall LevelWinds in my boat.
Rated 5 out of 5 by ospreycharters from Very well built, great solid clicker Purchased 2 of these reels to primarily fish for blacktip and spinner sharks that average 30 to 100 lbs. Perfect size, great handle that fits and flawless drag. Small enough to be a fair fight but strong enough to handle the bigger fish. Full time guide in Panama city fl.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jackb190 from Excellent Reels I bought my first Penn Squall reel about a year and a half ago. I now own six of them. I fish for stripers a couple of times a week. The Squall reels have brought in well over a hundred stripers at this point. They are smooth and powerful. I highly recommend the Squall.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Catch the Drift from Great reels tough as nails. Highly recommend them. Great drag and a very smooth reel.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Yakfisher1970 from Great bang for the buck I bought two Squall 30LW's for my son to do a little shark fishing but when his plans fell through, I pressed them into service fishing for alligator gar. So far these reels have handled the fish and the elements with ease.

What developer Frictional Games have done with their survival horror Amnesia game series is quite commendable. Even YouTube's most popular channel PewDiePie used to post videos of Felix Kjellberg playing Amnesia a lot back in the days! If you are fan of the series, then we got good news for you. Amnesia: Collection containing with two of the titles from the franchise is now absolutely FREE this weekend on Steam for a limited time.
Collecting Amnesia: The Dark Descent and Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs as a bundle that is worth $34.99, this offer is something that you cannot afford to miss if horror games are your favorite. Frictional Games have previously offered Amnesia: The Dark Descent for free and that was quite a long ago. It is very much possible for you to miss that opportunity to grab the copy and look now; you can have the entire series at one place.
To have Amnesia Collection free for lifetime, all you have to do is to go to Steam within the period of this limited time offer and then click "Install Game". Both The Dark Descent and A Machine for Pigs will start installing and the games will remain in your library even after the exclusive offer is expired. There was no word on how long this promotion will last but we believe either it would be over within the weekend or over the week long.
Two of the titles from the series have the near similar taste of horror but apparently, the sequel has made things a bit simpler. That being said, it still is more than enough to scare the hell out of you on any given day and will leave you in chills.
So, go and grab those two modern horror-classic games from Steam while you still can, so that if you are in crave for some good horror-game time, you can just get your fill with either one of Amnesia series. Playing Amnesia series will give you the idea of from where the scare tactics of Resident Evil 7 got their inspiration from.
