NASCAR: Daytona 500 Preview
Posted by AR1 staff February 19, 2022
Already riding a wave of positive momentum and international attention Sunday's 63rd Annual Daytona 500 (2:30 p.m. ET on FOX) is again shaping up to be one of the most high-profile, highly-competitive events as it ushers in the 2022 season.
Reigning NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Larson will start his No. 5 Chevrolet from the pole position alongside Hendrick Motorsports teammate Alex Bowman's No. 48 Chevrolet – leading a field of 40 cars that includes six past Daytona 500 winners, eight former series champions and even a past Formula One world champion in NASCAR's newest generation of race cars.

The Chevrolets, Fords and Toyotas – aptly referred to as the Next Gen cars – will feature different technical modifications and aesthetic enhancements – from the sequential shifter and 670 horsepower to single center-lock wheel nuts, rearview camera mirror and car numbers now placed behind the front wheels.
The response for the new cars and the sport in general has already benefitted from a successful debut at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum two weeks ago. The non-points Busch Light Clash was a nearly sold-out show with some estimates that 70 percent of the crowd were first-time NASCAR race attendees.
The diehards and first-timers paying attention this week at the sold-out annual season-opener at Daytona are expected to be treated to a highly competitive race.
Although Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolets have won the pole position in seven of the last eight Daytona races, the multi-championship organization hasn't won a Daytona 500 since Jimmie Johnson did so in 2014.
The last time a Daytona 500 polesitter won the race was 22-years ago when Dale Jarrett won the 2000 edition. The team's former champion driver-turned-team executive Jeff Gordon won from pole in 1999.
More often, this race has come down to the final thrilling laps. That was certainly the case last February when Front Row Motorsports driver Michael McDowell earned his career first NASCAR win taking the checkered flag by inches – credited with leading only the last lap. That scenario has played out frequently in recent years with race winners Austin Dillon (2018) and veteran Kurt Busch (2017) also capturing the win leading only the final lap.

There is only one multi-time winner in Sunday's race – three-time Daytona 500 champion Denny Hamlin, who drives the No. 11 Toyota for Joe Gibbs Racing.
Adding to the drama in 2022 are several new team/driver combinations. Busch is now driving a second car for the second-year 23XI Racing Toyota team owned by Hamlin and NBA legend Michael Jordan. His former teammate at Chip Ganassi Racing, Ross Chastain has similarly joined a new team. He'll team with Daniel Suarez in the No. 1 Chevrolet fielded by TrackHouse Racing, which is co-owned by former driver Justin Marks and musical superstar Pitbull.

Former series champion Brad Keselowski has expanded his presence in the sport and now co-owns the Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing two-car team. His involvement with the RFK team – as owner and driver of the No. 6 Ford – has already resulted in two trophies. Keselowski (Duel 1) and Chris Buescher (Duel 2) helped RFK Racing to a sweep of Thursday's Daytona qualifying races the first time a team accomplished a the feat since 2015.

Kaulig Racing added to its championship-caliber NASCAR Xfinity Series program with a fulltime NASCAR Cup Series car driven by Justin Haley in 2022 and a second car that will be shared by three drivers. Erik Jones – a former summer race winner at Daytona – will team with Ty Dillon in the newly formed Petty GMS Motorsports organization.
And first-year NASCAR Cup Series drivers – former NASCAR Xfinity Series champion Austin Cindric (Team Penske) and second-generation NASCAR drivers Harrison Burton (Wood Brothers Racing) and Todd Gilliland (Front Row Motorsports) will compete for top rookie honors.
Cindric has the top starting position (fifth) among rookies. The defending Daytona 500 winner McDowell will start sixth after an impressive run in Thursday's qualifying race. And the 2015 Daytona 500 winner Logano will start last in the field after having to go to a back-up No. 22 Team Penske Ford after an accident in his Duel 150 qualifying race.
Former Formula One champion and 1995 Indy 500 champion Jacques Villeneuve, 50, and current Xfinity Series title contender Noah Gragson raced their way into the Daytona 500 starting field in qualifying. It will be the first start in this race for both.
Kaz Grala qualified for the Daytona 500 starting field with a dramatic last lap pass to claim an "open" position available to non-chartered teams based on their Duel race result. Greg Biffle, 52, a former NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and Xfinity Series champion and perennial Cup Series title contender from 2003 -2016, earned the other 500 position with his finish in the second Duel.
Overall, the qualifying races were run with rave reviews. And the car manufacturers said they have high expectations for Sunday's race.
As is customary just prior to the season-opening Daytona 500, executives from all three NASCAR manufacturers – Chevrolet, Ford and Toyota – spoke to the media on Friday. All reported being greatly satisfied with the racing to date at Daytona, yet cautioning there is a lot to be learned about the cars and the way they race. Inventory counts remain conservative but all three makes expect that to be changing in the upcoming months.
"For the next few weeks we'll have to be mindful and make good decisions," Toyota Racing Development's David Wilson said. "What we can't do is ask a driver once he pulls that visor down to mitigate his performance based on concerns about parts. That's not racing."
They also pointed to pit strategy as playing a greater role in the race. That was certainly the case in the qualifying races with the Ford contingent taking only two tires on its pit stop to get back out on track in front of the Chevrolets, which all serviced four tires on their pit stop.
"On the surface, I don't envision 40 cars lined up three by three heading to the finish line. I just don't think that's going to happen," Wilson said. "There's the potential for more cars to go a lap down or two, but strategy, communication, teamwork are going to be absolutely critical to whomever wins that race on Sunday afternoon."
There were 34 cars that participated in Friday evening's hour-long practice with defending Daytona 500 winner McDowell turning in the fastest lap (192.678 mph) in the No. 34 Front Row Motorsports Ford. Stewart-Haas Racing's Aric Almirola ran the most laps of the session (33).
Eight of the 10 fastest cars were Fords. Bubba Wallace was the fastest Toyota in the No. 23 23XI Racing Toyota car and Noah Gragson was the fastest Chevrolet with a 10th-best lap.
Final Daytona 500 practice is Saturday (today) at 10:30 a.m. ET.

Princeton capped a strong training week in Florida with an even stronger showing in its first tri-meet of the 2018-19 season. The Tiger men won every swimming event and added a 1-meter diving win during an impressive afternoon against Florida Atlantic and Boston College. Princeton posted a 230-70 win over the hosts, and a 239-59 win over Boston College.
The Princeton men set the season off on the right tone with a win in the first event, the 200 medley relay. Co-captain Cole Buese led off a quartet that included Corey Lau, Raunak Khosla and Christian Feiler, and that team won the event in 1:31.79.
Sophomore Levy Nathan, coming off one of Princeton's top freshman seasons last year, showed his growth by winning the 500 free (15:54.50) by more than five seconds over any swimmer in the field.
Senior co-captain Murphy McQuet led a 1-2-3 Princeton finish in the 200 free with a time of 1:39.52, while underclassmen Joshua Brown and Jonathan Pollock posted strong races for the next two spots. Buese joined his fellow co-captain as an individual winner shortly after, as he won the 100 back in 50.62.
Like Nathan, Corey Lau was coming off one of Princeton's top freshman seasons, and he posted a win in the 100 breast inn 57.02. Khosla is trying to put up his own strong debut year at Princeton, and he certainly got off on the right foot. After helping win the 200 medley relay, he won the 200 fly in 1:50.69.
Senior Christian Feiler won the 50 free in 20.93, while McQuet grabbed his second individual win by taking the 100 free in 45.55. Buese was quick to match McQuet by winning the 200 back in 1:49.26, and senior Tyler Lin added headed up a 1-2-3-4 Princeton finish in the 200 breast with a time of 2:05.54.
Nathan won the 500 free in 4:37.13, and Buese became Princeton's first tri-winner by taking the 100 fly in 49.52. Khosla added a 400 IM win in 4:02.38, while the quartet of Joshua Brown, McQuet, Nathan Yates and Feiler won the 200 free relay in 1:22.95.
Charlie Minns also gave new diving coach Sean Letsinger his first win in Orange and Black, as he won the 1-meter diving competition with 328.70 points.
Princeton will now head home and prepare for the annual Big Al Open, which takes place next Friday and Saturday at DeNunzio Pool.
BOCA RATON, Fla. – The Florida Atlantic University swimming and diving team racked up several top finishes Friday at FAU Aquatic Center following a 45-minute weather delay. Distance events continue to be a strength for the Owls this season with top finishes in the 500- and 1650-yard freestyle events.
There was nothing stopping Natalie Clausen in the 1650-yard freestyle, as she came up with a first-place finish with a time of 17:22.37. Caitlin Dunne followed in third (17:40.80).
Fatimah Westbrook snatched another first-place title in her first year suiting up for the Owls in the 100-yard breaststroke (1:03.94). She also tallied a third-place finish in the 100-yard freestyle (53.34).
Spence Atkins came up with a silver finish in the 200-yard butterfly with a time of 2:02.40. She later captures another first-place title in a distance event this season, with a 5:00.25 finish.
On the board, Kaleigh Dundov scored 234.40 to record a fourth-place finish in the 1-meter event. Keegan Fluharty captured fourth in the 3-meter dive (255.10).
Fatimah Westbrook, Abby Marshall, Sarah Martin and Kelsey Witkay capped things off for the Owl women with third place in the 200-yard freestyle relay.
Will Smith started things off for the men's individual events with a second-place finish in the 1650-yard freestyle. Later on, Smith captured another second-place finish in the 500-yard freestyle (4:40.69).
Michael Rahrig touched the wall fourth in the 200 fly with his finish of 1:53.91.
Braedan Leach tallied a third-place finish with a time of 1:52.32. Leach also finished fourth in the 100-yard backstroke (52.30).
On the board, Logan Downey added another first-place finish to his resume with a score of 322.60 in the 3-meter dive. Downey also placed second in the 1-meter dive (326.85) with Wiley Schmidt following him in fourth (289.70).
The Owls won't have much rest, as the team will be making their way south to Coral Gables, Florida, to face the Miami University Hurricanes and Boston College Eagles tomorrow at 9:30 a.m. at the Whitten University Center Swimming Pool. While the FAU women's score will count, the men's will not. The Owls will be back at FAU Aquatic Center for the Alumni & Family Meet on Saturday, Nov. 10 at 11 a.m.


The Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials lab headed by Prof. Dr. Galiotis conducts active research in 2D materials such as graphene, MoS2 etc and carbon nanotubes. It is also a center of excellence for composites research such as graphitic/polymer nanocomposites and conventional carbon and Kevlar composites. The composites group is renowned for its achievements in stress/strain measurements in fibrous composites using laser Raman microscopy and has received over 3000 citations for related work. The expertise gained over many years of composites research particularly on graphite-based materials has been put into good use in research in carbon nanotubes and graphene and associated nanocomposites.
The group manages a whole suite of Raman instrumentation which will be employed for the tasks of the project and include 1 Invia Renishaw, 1 AFM-Raman, 2 remote probe equipment (Renishaw and Jobin Yvonne) and another triple J-Y Raman Spectrograph. It also operates a brand-new Brucker Fast-Scan AFM, a whole suite of CVD furnaces of 2D material production (1 AIXTRON Black Magic, 1 vertical furnace and 2 home-made furnaces for small specimens). These are very useful for parallel ex situ studies in the project. Other equipment that may be useful for the work described here are XPS, XRD, SEM but also dedicated equipment for composites research such as a semi-industrial autoclave, and a whole suite of mechanical frames. Other characterization facilities such as HR-TEM, NMR and electrical characterization will also be available at the University of Patras.

Game Notes Compiled by Regan Bartel of AM 1150


The ancient betting proverb states that in a bet, there's always a fool and a thief. The fool is always losing his money and the thief is always taking it. However, there's a way to make sure you're always the thief and never the fool. Naturally, you want your favourite team to win and therefore you tend to place your money on their successes. However, when it comes to football, this is a fool's game. To become the thief, you need to understand the analytics behind the sport and learn how to identify the typical football trends.
What is a trend in football?
The dictionary officially defines a trend as a "general direction in which something is developing or changing". In football, this implies a winning or losing outcome that happens reliably based on similar circumstances. It's not an exact science but it can provide substantial evidence to sway you to bet on one team or another. You need to look at the past history of each team's performance to identify a trend and ensure that you have a good sample size as this is the only way that a trend is useful.
Situational trends are based on specific circumstances and involve in-depth research. You have to study previous football matches and try to identify if there are any patterns or situations that resulted in a win. For example, you might find that a team wins 90 percent of the matches they play at home. This is compelling evidence and would allow you to strategically place a bet on that team whenever they're playing a home match. Other statistics you might want to look at for situational trends include home record against weaker or stronger teams, players ability to kick the ball during bad weather, record when traveling long distances, record following a big win, record following a big loss, or a team's record after a long football break or season.
Another way to use analysis to determine your bet is to look at how other betters are betting. You can place yourself in the mind of another gamer and see how likely they are to make a similar bet as you. According to football betting statistics and theories, most people who bet on football lose. Therefore, you should establish a contrarian betting strategy. This means that you bet against what the majority is doing. Since they're losing more often than they're winning, it makes sense for you to contradict their bets. It also gives you a greater chance of winning more money when you bid against the public.
The fool relies on his gut and the thief uses his mind. Therefore, if you're looking to make more money on your football bets, calculate the trends and analysis of each match and make smart predictions. You'll never be the fool again.

Q: Changing Screen Resolution and Scaling in one Batch file, and Launch a .exe file as well I wanna set the screen resolution of screen 1 to a predetermined value of 1872 x 1248 then set scaling to 100% then launch a .exe file from a folder, and once the exe is closed revert the screen automatically back to 3240 x 2160 and 200% scaling.
EDIT1:
Batch command to change the resolution of a computer
this one helped me set the resolution and it works fine:
  ChangeScreenResolution.exe /w=1872 /h=1248 /d=0

allFiles.exe

/wait allFiles.exe
ChangeScreenResolution.exe /w=3240 /h=2160 /d=0

But I couldn't find any resources on how to set resolution scaling at all, that's the missing bit, I'm fairly sure it can be done, but I don't know how.
How can it be done?
Thanks

A: So thanks to @Compo I figured out how it can be done:
https://github.com/imniko/SetDPI
https://tools.taubenkorb.at/change-screen-resolution/
And these 2 can do the trick for anyone interested:
::This bit changes Screen Resolution of Display1 to 1872 x 1248
::ChangeScreenResolution.exe [/w=1872 Horizontal Pixels] [/h=1248 Vertical Pixels] [/d=0 Means Display1]
ChangeScreenResolution.exe /w=1872 /h=1248 /d=0

::This bit changes this bit changes the scaling for Display1 to 125%
:: SetDPI.exe [Display Number 1 - means Display1] [Scaling %]
SetDPI.exe 1 125

::This bit starts allFiles.exe and goes on to the next line ONLY AFTER IT'S CLOSED

David Attenborough's plea to Scotland: 'act now to save your country'
GEORGE MAIR
Published: 19:12 Sunday 06 October 2019 Updated: 06:42 Monday 07 October 2019
Sir David Attenborough has called on the government to create "powerful new environmental laws" to save Scotland's wildlife, after a report found that more than one in ten species could disappear.
The naturalist and broadcaster, 93, has joined forces with the Scottish Wildlife Trust (SWT) to demand action to help nature recover.

Sir David, the President Emeritus of The Wildlife Trusts, calls on the government to create and connect wild places across the country in a short film released today.
Speaking in response to the continued declines in wildlife highlighted by the State of Nature report, he also urges members of the public to join the SWT's Wilder Future campaign.

Sir David said: "A wildlife-rich natural world is vital for our wellbeing and survival. We need wild places, to thrive. Yet many of our systems and laws have failed the natural world.
"We now live in one of the most nature depleted places on the planet. Nature urgently needs our help to recover -- and it can be done. By joining up wild places and creating more across the UK we would improve our lives and help nature to flourish, because everything works better when it's connected.
"Now is the time to tell our politicians that we need an ecological network set in Scottish law. A legally binding network for nature would mean that wildlife is prioritised when managing our land and planning our towns.
"Powerful new environmental laws can ensure habitats are expanded and reconnected meaning all life will thrive once more.
"It's time to turn things around. Nature is capable of extraordinary recovery but we must act now. Tell your politicians now is the time to put nature into recovery. Everything works better when it's connected."
Sir David has made the call for change following the shock findings of the recent State of Nature report 2019, which revealed the "crisis" state of wildlife north of the Border.
Among its findings, the report revealed that, since recording began, 49 per cent of Scottish species have decreased while only 28 per cent have increased. Of the 6413 species assessed in Scotland, 11 per cent were classified as threatened with extinction from Scotland. The report, described as the most comprehensive yet, concluded that it is not too late to act, however.

Jo Pike, Chief Executive of the SWT joined Sir David's call for change, adding: "Greater investment in nature must be at the heart of solving both of these challenges. We need swift and strategic action to protect and restore Scotland's natural habitats."


To start off, the tuck for these cards can make all other tucks wet their pants! I took off the very tightly fit plastic wrap, (not kidding), and excitingly discovered that the box had a lid! A lid, people! When your fingers pull off that lid, it is like a fresh cup of Play-Doh. Satisfying City. After that, you have the pleasure of UNFOLDING the box like origami. If you haven't watched the trailer, you must do so immediately. As you slide the cards out of the neat, green box, you think to yourself, "what have I gotten myself into." The cards look like thin slices of gorgeous, (for some reason green), marble, but feel like the good stuff you have been waiting for. The design on the core cards is dope, and the way they fan is just fresh. A+ NEVER BRING THESE TO SCHOOl!!
This deck is amazing! They look great and feel great. I also love the stars theme with the green. Should definitely buy for collection or cardistry. Did i also mention the sick tuck box?
We're so happy to hear you love this incredible deck! The tuck box is indeed amazing! Thanks for purchasing from 52Kards!

The Geography of Online Dating
When looking for love, most people don't look far from home. That's what a big-data analysis of interactions on a dating site revealed.
Do we search far and wide for love? Not so much, it turns out.
Most heterosexual singles search for a match close to where they live, according to a new paper in Sociological Science by Elizabeth Bruch and Mark Newman, both of the University of Michigan and Santa Fe Institute. Their study is based on a big-data analysis of interactions on a major online dating platform. (The researchers were required not to identify the site as a condition of conducting the research.) Specifically, the study analyzes some 15 million two-way exchanges between heterosexual users on the site. Bruch and Newman use these data points to assess the roles of age, gender, race, and proximity in heterosexual dating markets.
I have long argued that "mating markets" are a key factor alongside amenities and job markets in attracting young singles to cities. These authors write, "The experience of mate selection is frequently described, both in popular discourse and the scientific literature, in the language of markets. However, we know little about the structure of these romantic markets in part for lack of appropriately detailed data. The advent and vigorous growth of the online dating industry in the last two decades provides a new source of data about courtship interactions on an unprecedented scale."
Unsurprisingly, men are more likely to initiate online contact, sending more than 80 percent of initial messages to potential partners. Women receive four times as many first messages as men do. And women reply to men's messages at a "substantially lower rate" than men replying to women, the researchers find.
Dating sites make it possible to increase the size and scale of one's search for mates. But the study finds little evidence that people are connecting with partners who live far away. In fact, geographic proximity matters a great deal. Proximity is the single strongest driver of connections, or "reciprocal interactions," which occur when two people uninitiate an online conversation. The study identified 19 distinct dating communities which closely map onto geographic regions, such as New England, the South, Texas, and so on.
But online dating isn't necessary making proximity more important. "Whether or not the influence of geography is exacerbated by the setup of online dating sites, however, depends on how local dating is to begin with," Bruch told CityLab via email. "My sense from cell-phone studies of routine activity is that people typically stay within a given urban area, which suggests that offline dating is also fairly local."
The study considers factors such as the age structure of dating markets, age gaps between men and women, and the role of race, zooming in on four cities: New York, Boston, Chicago, and Seattle.
Bruch and Newman divided online dating into four distinct age cohorts (or what it calls "submarkets"): people in their early 20s, in their late 20s, in their late 30s, and 40 and older. Three-quarters of all online conversations or reciprocal messaging occurred between men and women in the same age group. In fact, the median age difference between men and women who started up online conversations was one year and seven months. Across the four cities and all submarkets, more than 40 percent of online daters did try to connect with others outside their age group, though with far less likelihood of having their messages returned.
Interestingly, the younger age cohorts had higher ratios of men to women, but those ratios tilted the other way as age increased (something I found in my own analysis of the demography of singles). This is likely because women marry or find partners younger. "Women's first marriages are at a younger age on average than men's, which takes more women than men out of younger dating markets," the authors write. For instance, there were two men for every woman in the youngest cohorts in Chicago and Seattle.
In Chicago and New York, the age differences between men and the women they messaged were two to three times larger within the oldest submarket than within the youngest. The authors say this is consistent with previous findings that men's preferences for their partners become more solidified over time, so as they get older, they may choose a larger age gap than before.

Race shapes dating and interaction patterns as well. White men tended to message younger black women compared to the white women they interacted with. In Chicago's oldest age cohort, white men corresponded with black women who were eight years younger than the white women they messaged.
Online dating may have opened up a world of choices, but the lion's share of interactions remain local. Although the internet was supposed to conquer the constraints of geography, proximity still matters in dating, as it does in clusters of talent and industry. It shapes the landscape of our potential romantic relationships. At a time when people can literally search the globe for love, more often than not they end up connecting to a boy or girl who is almost "next door."

Laud and honor the martyrs! Even those who weren't warriors.
The unconscious brother enjoys a guilty comfort.
you kneel. Can Third World tragedies find any appeal?
Or does bourgeois culture supply you with unlimited hope?
your conscience but that doesn't make it science.
slavery rattle like tambourines to a new upheaval.
So laud and honor the martyrs! Even those who weren't warriors.
at its chauvanisms and material greed.
Don't be part of the problem.


I loved the first half of this vaguely gothic story, as a desperate young woman talks her way into a job with a supercilious hermit who turns out to have a deadly fear of physical contact. The relationship grows in a twisted yet strangely satisfying way, and it's very hot.
By the second half though, I was starting to feel impatient with the writing style. I'm generally a fan of Stein's stream-of-consciousness first person narratives, but this one started to feel forced... there was so much start/stop reportage of what Cyrian does -- during moments that are supposed to be overwhelming -- that I kept feeling jarred. It was like hearing someone reporting on an earthquake that was supposedly destroying their home while saying, "Yes, you won't believe what's happened now. Yup, my irreplaceable family portraits have all been smashed to dust. Oh, I feel unbelievably terrible about that. And guess what's happening now." I also got tired of Molly describing dialogue instead of simply presenting it. Basically, the whole point of this style is to feel immediate and unself-conscious, so it really doesn't work for me when it feels so very self-conscious.
So sadly, I didn't love this like I thought I was going to at first. It's still an interesting read and very exciting at times.


This week, more "fin" than "tech" news in the wealth management space. While FinTech startups continue fighting for open access to financial data, brokers continued fighting the new DoL regulation, and price wars continued with trading fees and fund expenses.
President Trump has threatened to do a "big number" on Dodd-Frank, which covers everything from banking regulation to credit cards to trading fees. Fintech startups are lobbying to keep Section 1033 in place, which gives them the right to access data from their customers' bank accounts.
Brokers are balking at the DoL fiduciary ruling by saying that it involves too much red tape, hurts consumer choices, and is too complex. However, this columnist argues that their biggest threat is investors moving towards low-fee investments that avoid conflicts of interest. He argues that brokers should focus on openly promoting high-fee products, rather than entering into backdoor arrangements with fund companies and passing the fees to individual investors without their knowledge. In the long run, client trust is the most important asset.
Charles Schwab reduced its trading fee from $8.95 to $6.95 – undercutting many of its competitors. The brokerage also joined the fund price war by reducing fees of mutual funds and some of their corresponding ETFs. On Thursday, brokerage stock prices fell from 5-10% on the news.

Whatever One Shall Know about the Sacrilegious Movie, "Innocence of Muslims":
A Director Formerly Sentenced to Jail for Drug Dealing
Navideshahed: The director of the anti-Islamic film 'Innocence of Muslims' which insults the revered Prophet of Islam (PBUH) had been imprisoned for 21 days by the charges of delivering narcotic substances and now he has conditional freedom due to financial crimes.
The anti-Islam movie, 'Innocence of Muslims' which has provoked the anger of the Islamic world before this was supposed to be named as 'Guiltlessness of Bin Laden'. Some parts of this film have been put in Utube website as the real life of the prophet of Mohammad.
This film that even its actors and actresses have announced exemption for playing roles in that is fully ambiguous including its name to its budget and even its producers.
•	The film's budget
As Sam Bacile, the director of the offensive film has produced this film with a budget of $ 50 million says that this budget has been a rewarded amount by 100 Jewish Israelis; of course according to the very weak structure of the screenplay and its directing, playing roles, masking and photography, it does not seem that such a budget has been used for production of this film!
•	Director and producer of the film
-	The number of the film agents
Some of the sources such as CNN have considered the number of the agents of this film as 80 persons, but Tim Dax, one of the actors of this film who has played the personal role named Simpson in a part of his interview has said: "During one and half week, 72 persons worked during the days and nights in order to produce the film."?
-	The producers of the film
There is no an accurate figure of the list of producers for this film, but in addition of the claim of directing of this film based on the support of 100 Jewish persons for this film, Terry Johns, the anti-Islamic priest that due to burning Koran and insulting to the sacred religion of Islam is one of the main supporters of this film and he has struggled so much in order to advertise and display this film."?
-	The director of the film
At the beginning the release of the production of this film, the name of the director Alan Roberts was announced, but after a while the news agencies announced the name of the director as 'Sam Bacile' that as the media itself says, he is not a popular man.
The director of the film had been imprisoned for 21 days by the charges of delivering narcotic substances
Sam Bacile that some of the sources have announced his age as 56 years, Wall Street has announced his age 52 years and BBC announced his age as 55 years old and during the decade 1990s he was imprisoned for two times by the charges of delivering narcotic substances for 21 days. Also right now he is staying in conditional freedom and one of his freedom conditions is the lack of use of internet for the period of 5 years.
The western Medias including BBC consider him as an originally Egypt's Coptic Orthodox who had immigrated to the United States of America and right now he lives in California.
He himself claims that the screenplay of the film 'Innocence of Muslims'has been written by him during the time that he was in the prison by collaboration of his son 'Abonab'.
Some of the Medias have named him as next Van Gogh, the racist and anti-Islam director of the Netherlands Cinema that was killed following the production of the film 'Surrender'.
Times of Display
This two-hour film which got its production permission in the August 2011 was displayed for the first time in June 23, 2012 in Wine Hall for less than 10 persons.
Terry Johns, the American racist priest was supposed to play 13 minutes of this film on September 11, the anniversary of the September 11 attacks. He wanted to display them in a Church in Florida, but due to the huge domain of criticisms, he was not able to do that.
The complete version of this film has not been placed anywhere but some parts of that are available on Utube website.
•	The actors and actresses of the film announced their exemption in the offensive film to the revered Prophet of Islam (PBUH)
All of us were deceived
Cindy Lee Garcia, one of the main actresses of the film in an interview with the media said we were not told that the film is going to be made with such an approach. Virtually all of them were deceived, all the scenes that I played role in were re-dubbed.
The film director has to done this work, he must answer to God.
Tim Dax, the young actor who is famous in the porno films in Hollywood films, in this film he has played the role of a person named Simpson, regarding playing in this film he has said: I would go to the filmmaking scene everyday without seeing the script at all."?
He says: All the films would be produced in the house of the director whose name was Sam and a place that was not so good had been considered for it and this issue caused that many questions to form in my mind, but they would repeatedly ask us to respond what we would be wanted to do.
Dax at the continuation of his words adds: "When for the first time I saw a section of the film, I immediately noticed that it is not my voice and all the scenes had been dubbed in a professional manner; all the things that I can say is that I'm not an anti-Muslim actor."?
The actors and actresses of the film have claimed that they were told that the name of the film is the Desert Sacrificers or the Desert Storm.
•	Reaction against the film
Although protests and criticism against the film existed since several months ago in dispersed condition, but following the representation of the anti-Islamic film 'Innocence of Muslims' in the Wahhabism network 'Al-Naas' from Egypt, the Muslims of Egypt protested against this issue and after that the domain of protests reached Libya, Yemen, Bahrain, Iran and other Muslim countries.
The U.S embassies in Cairo and Benghazi were attacked by the Muslims and in this regards some persons such as the U.S. ambassador in Libya were killed.
The anger of the Muslims in the world in different countries of the world is getting increased day by day and the Muslims call on the United States of America to punish the agents for production of the film.

Toastmasters International empowers people to achieve their full potential and realise their dreams. Through its member clubs, people throughout the world can improve their communication and leadership skills, which in turn gives them the courage to change.
Toastmasters International is the leading movement devoted to making effective oral communication a world-wide reality. Through its member clubs, Toastmasters International helps men and women learn the arts of speaking, listening and thinking - vital skills that promote self-actualisation, enhance leadership potential, foster human understanding and contribute to the betterment of mankind.
It is basic to this mission that Toastmasters International continually expand its worldwide network of Clubs, thereby offering ever-greater numbers of people the opportunity to benefit from its programmes.
Toastmasters International's core values are integrity, dedication to excellence, service to the member and respect for the individual. These are values worthy of a great organization, and we believe we should incorporate them as anchor points in every decision we make. Our core values provide us with a means of not only guiding but also evaluating our operations, our planning and our vision for the future.
Benefits for the Individual: Survey after survey shows that presentation skills are crucial to success in the workplace. Many people pay high fees for seminars to gain the skill and confidence necessary to face an audience. Toastmasters provides an option that is less expensive and held in high regard in business circles. This organization has been around for more than 84 years and offers a proven and enjoyable way to practise and hone communication and leadership skills.
Benefits to Companies: When employees are confident and competent communicators, everyone wins.
Your company's success depends in large part on how well your employees communicate with each other as well as with customers. The effects of a poorly run meeting or an ineffective sales presentation are lasting and expensive.
How well do your employees convey their expertise to potential customers? Can they lead meetings efficiently? Can they offer constructive feedback and diplomatically deal with a wide range of people? Good communicators tend to be good leaders, and chances are your company needs employees with leadership potential.
Most people are shy or nervous about speaking in public. Many of your employees would rather have a root canal than sign up for a speaking class at the office. However, since 1924, Toastmasters International has helped millions of men and women become more confident in front of an audience. Our international network and our learn-by-doing program are sure to help your employees become better speakers and leaders.

Although all prices are quoted in US Dollars, members pay their fees direct to their club in SA Rands. The exact amount due thus depends on the exchange rate and on which month you join in.
At present, Two Oceans Toastmasters charges R100 per member to cover administrative costs & R70 for a personalised badge to be printed.
Toastmasters has over 75 districts all over the world. Below are links to some of the major districts.

It works correctly and nothing bad happens. For some reason it doenst check the whole argument. It finds same word and then uses that. How to fix this?

A: This line :
RewriteRule tilaukset home.php?page=orders

means any URI contains tilaukset it will capture a kaikki-tilaukset as well
change it to :
RewriteRule ^tilaukset home.php?page=orders

This ^ means start with tilaukset .
The other Rule:
RewriteRule kaikki-tilaukset home.php?page=allOrders

Should work fine right now.
