Thoughts on Blue Bayou
For as long as I can remember I always thought motorcycles were really cool. I can't even ride a bike so the idea of me getting on one is ludicrous and hilarious.
My failures are beside the point.
There's just something so American about riding your iron horse through the dusty southwest. Stopping at a tavern somewhere getting a drink and hitting the road before anyone learns your name. Even in films, they stand as a testament to a certain freedom. Freedom to a system that holds you down in Easy Rider, or even freedom to the laws around you shown by the Hells Angels in various forms. But, specifically, think of the depiction in Gimme Shelter.
When you're a teen there's nothing cooler than the idea of physical and ideological freedom. I promise I'm getting to a point here just stick with me.
Now, I'm older and this feeling of freedom has become less "I wish my parents would let me play Halo 3 longer" and instead it's "I hope I can keep my morals and ideologies pure in a world that sometimes it feels like is out to destroy me."
I have never seen a movie tackle these very specific and personal feelings until I saw Blue Bayou.
Justin Chon has been on my radar for a couple of years now. I was lucky enough to see his film Ms. Purple at Sundance where it showed and I was supremely impressed by the work. His visual styling is an ode to old masters with a very personal stamp. What I didn't know was that his acting rivaled his directing skills.
He lets us sit in these beautiful moments in Blue Bayou. A man with his daughter showing her the things that make him happy. A motorcycle ride and a moment in a willowy swamp. It makes the melodramatic turns that happen later in the film have that much more of a punch. Most of all it just makes me happy to see such a talented voice still interested in the genre of melodrama.
Most of the film is expressly about Justin Chon's character Antonio trying to be a good father and husband while also facing the threat of deportation, or as I like to put it: how can I still be a person while the world is outright trying to kill me.
My favorite moments of the film are when we the viewers are just watching Antonio drive his motorcycle. Sometimes, we see his eyes through the visor of his personalized helmet, and other times we look at just his back or shoulder. These moments of him racing through streets that he's maybe lived on are his true moments of peace.
Antonio is living the motorcycle outlaw dream. He has his own little piece of heaven with his house and family, and in conjunction with all of those outlaws in the past the state just cannot have that.
You know the ending of the movie as soon as you get in. It's not the important part. What is important are the moments we have in spite of it all.
That sort of moral and ideological freedom that we all crave.
I'm sorry if this is all over the place, but if you leave with anything from here leave with this. Go see Blue Bayou and support a truly singular artist in Justin Chon.

Two of my favourite things.
Two of my favourite things : Lush and freebies.
I am back again with a Lush product- 3 actually; sample sized. These are the Trichomania Shampoo Bar, Wash that man right out of my hair Shower jel, and The Comforter Shower Cream.
The concepts of shampoo bars was quite alien to me as I am used to only using liquid shampoos which is why I requested a sample. Now, I will be talking to you about my experience using this shampoo bar from the perspective of someone who has greasy hair.
Before I get to talk about my experience with it though, let me tell you a few things about it.
According to the Lush website, this bar is full of creamed coconut which is what creates it lovely, sweet scent. Creamed coconut is full of natural protein which will help strengthen the hair. I straighten my hair often, and since I've been using Trichomania my hair feels soft instead of having that dry, crunchy feel to it.
What I loved about this shampoo is that it lathers up really easily and produces a very thick, creamy foam that makes your hair feel instantly moisturised. The lather almost felt like a padding, which after I washed it off, helped to thicken my hair and give it some much needed volume. While it doesn't make it as frizzy as Big, it didn't feel as thin as I'm normally used to, which was a blessing.
Trichomania lathers up wonderfully as it creates a lot of bubbles as you apply it to your hair, and when dry it leaves your hair feeling soft. It has a thick silky feel to it as it lathers up.
Tips for storing Shampoo Bars.
According to Jane ,from Lush UK Customer care, " To keep your shampoo bars in good condition, you could put them on soap dishes.
As long as you air dry them first, you can store them on wooden slatted soap dishes, china or plastic ones, or on wire racks, if you have those in your bathroom."
Or you can buy metal tins from Lush that come in 3 shapes : square, oval, and round.
Wash that Man Right Out Of My Hair Shower Gel I want to talk about one of the greatest mysteries in my life at the moment, okay?
Apart from the great mystery that I associate with this red shower gel, I guess I should point out how much I love it's thick formula and the way that it makes you feel refreshed when using it. With this product, a little can go a long way as it lathers up rather quickly.
I had heard so many great things about The Comforter . However, I didn't want to actually buy it a bottle of it without actually knowing whether I like it or not. So, I requested a sample and I LOVED IT.
First of all it's a pink liquid so it looks really pretty but it's also really creamy. One whiff of it and you can tell that it's a really sweet scented shower cream and oh, so very fruity. The fruity scent is contributed by the Cassis absolute, which is basically Blackcurrant absolute. The Cassis absolute is also found in The Comforter body lotion and The Comforter Bubble Bar.
The Cassis Absolute, Almond oil and Bergamot oil together ,amongst other ingredients, produce this wonder Shower Cream which helps moisturize the skin and leave it smelling incredible. The fragrance actually lasts a few hours on the skin which makes me love this product so much more.
The only down-ish side to this product is that it doesn't seem to lather up a lot as you rub it in the skin. It's not actually a down side for most but for me , a passionate lover of bubbles, it is a downside.
Other than that, it is wonderful. My brother has purchased the big bottle so now I have more than just the sample size.
I really do want to thank Jane from Lush for answering my questions ! She basically provided most of the information for Tips for storing Shampoo Bars.
I am slowly exploring other Lush products instead on being stuck on Bath Bombs, Shower Gels, and Bubble Bars. Let me know your favourite products from Lush !

Before we begin I want to take you back to 2012. January 6th 2012 was the day I discovered One Direction. The reason I am telling you this is because the boys of One Direction have a small number of tattoos. One of them happens to be on Louis Tomlinson's skin, which I had sworn to get inked into my skin. But as I grew older (and a tad wiser) I realized that I shouldn't get it as it looks rather childish.
Now, as I was curiously browsing through Inkbox's selection of temporary tattoos I spotted a tattoo similar to that of Louis's so ,obviously, I got it. I, also, got a Raven tattoo from their The Mummy Collection for my friend.
SO....here is my review of the Inkbox Temporary Tattoo "Papel". In other words, a paper airplane.
This was by far my favourite trip to the United Kingdom.
Hello my lovelies. I am so happy that you have taken the time to look at my blog and that you are actually reading this right now.
Today is going to be a mixed blog, as in I am going to narrate my experience of going to a Niall Horan concert. I am also going to review a product by Lalalab.
If you have seen one of my earlier posts on this blog (A-Z of me), you would know that I am a huge One Direction fan. What I may have never spoken of is that Niall Horan is my favourite member of that band. In the earlier days of One Direction he was very insecure, and as an insecure girl myself I related to him and declared his cute face my favourite.
As any other One Direction fan I was heartbroken with the news that they will be going on an 18 month hiatus. 3 years later they are still on hiatus; however, I am grateful for it. If it wasn't for the band to be on break, I would have never gotten the chance to meet my favourite.
This week I'd thought that I'd post another easy recipe. Usually the recipes I post have 3 Main Ingredients but this one has 4 so I couldn't name the blog post "3 main ingredient recipe :Nutella biscuits " Never mind though, it is still an easy and simple recipe that should take around 30 minutes to prepare and bake.

Year 6-8 Poetry Slam Competition at Colston's School
After internal heats, selections and a practice run in front of their peers during a school Assembly, the intrepid poetry 'slammers' from Years 6-8 visited Colston's School for a Poetry Slam Competition. On arrival, pupils were excited to meet Poetry Slammer, Ash Dickinson, who led a warm up. The pupils were interested to hear a professional orator, noticing how the fast, rhythmic style of his delivery meant that the poetry took on an almost musical quality. During a 'slam' the poet is free to choose a topic, and Ash's pieces ranged from an homage to women's shoes, to the value we should place on travel and experience. Following this, the 25 competitors were ready to showcase their pieces. Aneline and Callum each gave polished and brave performances about possible career paths, using alliteration and brightly coloured props to enhance their pieces. Aaron and Eve delivered their poems with aplomb, praising the activities of a school day. Finally, Daisy recited a complex and well-crafted limerick: an abstract narrative about a cloud who witnesses an accident befall a pilot named Mark. Mrs Lyons-White commented that "our poets did Clifton High and themselves proud, particularly considering this was their first foray into the world of Slam Poetry." We hope all our young poets continue to think creatively and continue composing poems.

Preventing and mitigating misinformation
By Jevin West Wednesday, October 14, 2020
Share via Email Share on LinkedIn Tweet Share on Facebook
Jevin West, iSchool Associate Professor and Director of the UW Center for an Informed Public, shares an update about the critical role of information professionals in ensuring fair and equitable participation in the 2020 U.S. elections and other democratic processes around the world. You can learn more about the Center and its efforts at cip.uw.edu.
The Information School was founded as a library school in 1911. Seven years later, the world experienced one of the worst pandemics in modern history, with an estimated 50 million deaths worldwide. In that same year, John Hopkins University established the first endowed school of public health, with many other universities establishing similar schools shortly thereafter. The goal of these interdisciplinary programs was to train a new set of professionals focused on preventing and mitigating disease, rather than just treating it.
In today's world, can you imagine not having public health schools?
The 1918 flu pandemic shares many similarities to our current pandemic, but there are a few distinctions worth highlighting. First, the world today is far denser, which affects the spreading dynamics. There are about 7.5 billion people today versus 2 billion a hundred years ago. People today are more mobile and globally connected, both physically and digitally, but it may be the digital connectivity that is more consequential. Instead of waiting weeks for news about the latest case counts or treatment options, we simply refresh our browsers or watch the next tweet (t)roll in. Access to limitless "up-to-date" information has its benefits, but it also comes with ills. A large proportion of this information is not only wrong but dangerously so. Bill Gates did not release this novel coronavirus; fish tank cleaner will not cure this disease; 5G does not suppress our immune system; and COVID-19 to date is far more deadly than the seasonal flu.
Misinformation has become so problematic that the World Health Organization stated in February that the world is facing a parallel "infodemic." This statement was referring to the pandemic, but the reach of the infodemic is far wider. Any world event that creates uncertainty and collective anxiety also creates opportunities for rumors and conspiracy theories to spread fast and far. We are seeing this play out with the impending U.S. election.
In response, our Center for an Informed Public (CIP) co-launched the non-partisan, Election Integrity Partnership (EIP) with Stanford University's Internet Observatory, Graphika and DFRLab. We are monitoring, in real-time, misleading and false information about the election process. For example, we track false news regarding procedural interference (e.g., the election date has changed), participation interference (e.g., the lines are too long), or voter fraud. We have observed the growth of "mail-dumping" and "mail-harvesting" narratives, supported with misassigned intent (e.g., the postal worker is a Democrat or Republican), false framing (e.g., images of dumped mail from different countries or prior elections), exaggerated impact (e.g., voting fraud is everywhere), and strategic amplification. The EIP project will not end on Nov. 3. We anticipate a surge of disinformation shortly after Election Day and will continue our efforts post-election. We are always looking for digital volunteers, so please reach out if you are interested in joining the efforts.
Real-time monitoring is new for us. Research is normally retrospective and takes years to synthesize and report. We don't have that luxury right now. We are applying our research methodologies in shortened time scales. Students, postdocs, staff, and faculty are working in shifts, literally around the clock. We are collaborating with government officials, journalists, technologists, and civic society leaders. The work is already having an impact. Technology platforms are adjusting their policies and content in response. The New York Times' editorial board recently praised the project and media broadly are communicating our findings to the public. I should note, however, that when calling out misleading misinformation, not everyone gives praise...
Fact-checking the latest rumor sometimes feels like a Sisyphean task, but the rapid rise of QAnon, Plandemic, and other conspiracy theories in 2020 illustrates why these rumor mills cannot be ignored. We need healthy information environments if we are to solve society's biggest problems. That is our focus in the CIP and the iSchool.
In today's digital world, can you imagine not having information schools?

Vista Equity Partners is folding alt-data shop 7Park into another one of its portfolio companies just 2 years after buying it for $100 million
Published by Business Insider on Thu, 14 Jan 2021

<bi-shortcode id="summary-shortcode" data-type="summary-shortcode" class="mceNonEditable" contenteditable="false">Summary List Placement</bi-shortcode>
7Park Data, a darling of the alternative-data boom feeding quantitative hedge funds, is shuttering as a standalone business just two years after being acquired for $100 million by private-equity juggernaut Vista Equity Partners.

Sources told Insider that Bellevue, Washington-based Apptio, another Vista portfolio company, will absorb 100% of 7Park's business.

A spokesperson for 7Park confirmed the deal, citing the strength of its tech. An Apptio spokesperson said in a statement that the company is "poised to enhance our robust IT Benchmarking solution as well as provide additional machine learning-driven data cleansing and auto classification capabilities" with the purchase.

A spokesperson for Vista declined to comment. The terms of the deal were not disclosed.

New York-based 7Park has seen challenges in recent months including client defections, losing access to key data streams, and a precipitous drop in revenues, according to sources familiar with the matter who spoke under the condition of anonymity to preserve relationships. Details regarding how 7Park, and its offerings, will be integrated into Apptio were not immediately clear.

Annual revenue has fallen by more than 50% since Vista purchased the company, according to sources familiar with the company.

The alt-data company's plummeting fortunes mark a rare miss for Vista. In recent months, the private-equity firm, which has $73 billion in assets under management, has also been rocked by billionaire co-founder Robert Smith's admission to years-long tax evasion and the exit of Brian Sheth, Vista's No. 2.

7Park, founded in 2012, rose to prominence amid Wall Street's embrace and shift toward novel data streams, such as retail foot traffic, credit-card statements, email receipts, and website and app traffic.

The company made most of its money selling this data to many of the world's top hedge funds, which cleaned it up and packaged the intel into algorithms to inform potential investments. The firm in 2017 produced roughly $15 million in revenue and had more than 140 clients, including Balyasny, Citadel, Coatue, Tiger Global, and SoftBank, according to a pitch deck presentation viewed by Insider.

7Park had ambitions of growing that revenue stream to more than $200 million, according to the presentation.

In 2018, a breakout year for alternative-data providers, Vista bought the company for $100 million, adding a data up-and-comer to its portfolio of technology investments.

But 7Park has encountered an array of obstacles since, including a slew of staff exits and leadership changes in 2019, Insider previously reported.

More importantly, the company had lost access to data streams throughout 2020.

Jumpshot, a data stream collected and sold by cybersecurity firm Avast before being shut down in January 2020 following concerns over data privacy, was one such example. Jumpshot's data was a part of 10-15% of 7Park's offerings at the time, a source familiar with the situation had told Business Insider. While some 7Park's products that included Jumpshot data were salvageable, other were not, the source added.

7Park had previously faced issues around data streams going dark, a somewhat common peril of operating in the world of alternative data.

In 2015, two of 7Park's critical data vendors were acquired nearly simultaneously, the source familiar with the situation had previously told Business Insider. One of the acquiring companies wasn't interested in working with 7Park, while the other was a competitor. As a result, the company was forced to quickly switch to new offerings essentially overnight in order to salvage the business, the source said.

One former employee, who spoke under the condition of anonymity in order to speak freely, said the company was left scrambling in early 2019 when Google changed its policy to limit email receipt data.

The company's feed on email receipts, at the time, was one of its most accurate and a best seller, the source said.

To be sure, 7Park's view of the market, and its place in it, changed following the Vista acquisition, the source familiar with the situation had previously told Insider. A key consideration of the company following the deal was the value it could provide Vista's other portfolio companies when it came to their own internal data, whether that be selling it or for other purposes, the source said.

But its eight-year run as a standalone firm has come to an end, and it will now be folded into Apptio, a software provider that Vista purchased for nearly $2 billion in 2018.

The England national team at the Euro 2016 could feature a new combination
Tue, 03/08/2016 - 13:26 — content
The England national team at the Euro 2016 could feature a new combination in midfield if the latest comments by manager Roy Hodgson is anything to go by.
Due to the retirement of experienced professionals like Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard, there is a vacant spot in the England midfield. There are a number of young candidates available for Hodgson to rely upon. The work for the former Liverpool manager will come in the form of managing those young guns. Hodgson says that he might have a different plan for the midfield at the Euro 2016.
This would involve pairing of Ross Barkley and Dele Alli to provide a steady combination. The former plays for Everton and is recognised as one of the top talents for the England national team. The latter dominates the midfield of Tottenham by being a box to box midfielder in the mould of Lampard. This combination has the ability to change its facets as the game progresses.Alli is capable of both attack and defence while Berkeley will provide an immense thrust on the counter-attacks. Hodgson says that he might try out the new combination in the upcoming friendly matches. Some of the options include playing a diamond midfield or bringing Harry Kane into the position too.
"We have a lot of possibilities in terms of formation. We can play in a diamond, or with one centre-forward, and the big thing is [Harry] Kane and [Jamie] Vardy, who have both been such a sensation.The midfield is looking really good. We talked a lot about Ross and what he needs to add, if he can add a few more goals, and he is doing that now. We have several formations, there no reason why Ross and Dele can't play in the same team because they are all-round players," said Hodgson.

West Virginia Legislature Impeaches State Supreme Court Justices for Alleged Misconduct
Loaded on Nov. 6, 2018 by Derek Gilna published in Criminal Legal News November, 2018, page 27
Filed under: Judicial Misconduct. Location: West Virginia.
The West Virginia legislature on August 13, 2018, approved 11 articles of impeachment against all West Virginia Supreme Court justices for alleged "wasteful spending, maladministration, incompetency, neglect of duty, and potential criminal behavior," according to CNN.
The impeachment vote generally broke along party lines, with most Republicans voting in favor, and Democrats voting in opposition.
Chief Justice Margaret Workman, and Justices Allen Loughry, Robin Davis, and Elizabeth Walker, were formally charged. All but Workman will face trial on those charges in the West Virginia Senate, which requires a three-fifths vote to convict. Workman's trial was blocked October 11, 2018, by the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals, which cited violations of the separation of powers doctrine. "This case is not about whether or not a justice of the Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia can or should be impeached; but rather it is about the fact that to do so, it must be done correctly and constitutionally with due process," the ruling stated.
A fifth Justice, Menis E. Ketchum II, who retired from the court in late July, has since been charged with federal financial crimes, and will apparently plead guilty.
House Speaker Pro Tempore John Overington declared: "This is one of the saddest days in my 34 years in the Legislature. It has become clear that our Supreme Court has breached the public trust and lost the confidence of our citizens. This somber action today is an essential step toward restoring the integrity of our state's highest court."
Davis, who retired from the court after her impeachment, claimed that Republicans are overstepping their bounds by their actions. "What we are witnessing is a disaster for the rule of law, the foundation of our state, and indeed our own society. For when a legislative body attempts to dismantle a separate branch of government, the immediate effects, as well as the precedent it sets for the future, can only be deemed disastrous," she said. "The majority members have ignored the will of the people who elected the justices of this state. They've erased the lines of separation between the branches of government."
Most of the legislature's complaints appear to stem from extensive and expensive renovations to the justices' offices and alleged misuse, or in some cases outright conversion, of state property. Davis was impeached for $500,000 in office renovations. Walker spent $131,000 on office renovations, and Workman spent $111,000. Loughry—accused of taking a historically significant desk to his home for personal use and of using a state vehicle on personal trips and a state-issued card for gas—also spent $363,000 on office renovations. Ketchum, accused of misusing a state vehicle and a fuel credit card, has agreed to plead guilty to obstruction of justice.
A special election has already been set to replace Ketchum. According to the state's constitution, Republican Gov. Jim Justice has the power to appoint replacements for the impeached judges.

Svitlana Ivànivna Herassimenko (; ) és una astrònoma soviètica i tatikistani d'origen ucraïnès  i descobridora del cometa 67P/Txuriúmov-Herassimenko.

Descobriment del cometa 67P/Txuriúmov-Herassimenko
L'11 de setembre de 1969, Herassimenko treballava a l'Institut Astrofísic Alma-Ata, a prop d'Almaty, en aquell moment capital de la República Socialista Soviètica Kazakh, a la Unió Soviètica. Va fotografiar el cometa 32P/Comas Solà amb un telescopi Maksutov de 50 cm.

Després de tornar al seu institut natal, Klim Ivanovych Churyumov, de l'Observatori Astronòmic de la Universitat Nacional de Kíev, va examinar aquesta fotografia i va trobar un objecte cometari a la vora de la placa, però va suposar que es tractava de Comas Solà. El 22 d'octubre, aproximadament un mes després de la presa de la fotografia, va descobrir que l'objecte no podia ser Comas Solà, perquè es trobava a 2-3 graus de la posició esperada. Un altre escrutini va produir una feble imatge de Comas Solà a la seva posició esperada a la placa, demostrant així que l'altre objecte era un cometa diferent. En examinar tot el material recollit, van trobar aquest nou objecte en quatre plaques més, amb data del 9 i 21 de setembre.

Many housewives are accustomed, without hesitation, to boil milk, especially if it is meant for small children. Let's see, is it necessary to boil and what are the subtleties of this process.
Boiling helps to decontaminate raw milk,having saved it from bacteria. Like any product, it is a fertile environment for the propagation of harmful microorganisms that die during heat treatment. And since the bacteria are destroyed, then the boiled milk is stored longer than the raw milk.
True, this procedure has its drawbacks. High temperature not only destroys bacteria, but also destroys vitamins and trace elements contained in unpasteurized milk, and also changes the structure of milk protein. The longer the product is exposed to heat treatment, the fewer vitamins it remains. Nevertheless, even after this procedure, sufficient amounts of nutrients are stored in the milk. But if bought from the hands of milk does not boil, there is a risk of contracting some unpleasant disease, such as E. coli or Salmonella. So be sure to boil unpasteurized milk!
So, a product bought in the market or fromvillage grandmother, you should always boil. And what about milk from a store or a hypermarket? This product has already passed all the stages of heat treatment by the time it was on the shelf of the store, and is completely ready for use. If the package indicates that the milk is pasteurized, ultra-pasteurized or melted, it is not necessary to boil it. The same applies to infant formula, as a rule, they are enriched with vitamins and minerals necessary for the child, which can be destroyed during heat treatment. In some stores you can see and lactose-free sterilized milk. It is suitable for people with intolerance to milk sugar. This product also does not need to be boiled.
How to boil the milk? Which dish is best done? The bottom of the pot for boiling should be thick or even double, this reduces the chance of burning. As for the material, it is preferable to take the dishes from stainless steel. If this is not found in the farm, an aluminum, glass or ceramic container is also suitable. But it is not recommended to use enamel utensils - milk can easily burn in it, and it will not be easy to wash such a container. By the way, some manufacturers of kitchen appliances produce dairy products, created exclusively for this procedure.
How to boil the milk? Rinse the pan with cool water before putting it on the stove, this will save the product from burning. If you put a small saucer on the bottom of the dishes, the milk probably will not run away: tapping on the walls and bottom of the container, the saucer will not let the foam form on the surface when the liquid begins to boil.
After putting the pan on the stove, pour a littlewater and wait until it boils. Add some milk to the boiling water, and if it does not curl, pour in all the remaining. Periodically stirring, bring the product to a boil over medium heat, and then reduce it. After one or two minutes, the pan can be removed from the plate.
During boiling, milk can escape because ofFoam, which forms on its surface and does not allow rising air bubbles to burst. It can be removed only during boiling, but not after. On a cooled product, the film should be left as it contains most of the nutrients.
How much do I boil the milk? Dietitians disagree on how long it should be boiled. Some doctors recommend doing this for ten minutes or even longer, to surely destroy all harmful microorganisms. But many nutritionists advise to boil the milk until the moment it begins to boil.
So how much should you boil the milk? It is believed that harmful micro-organisms will be neutralized even for a short time. In addition, the less the duration of heat treatment of milk, the more useful substances it will remain.
Is it possible to boil in a microwave oven?
Doctors say that in the microwave oven milk can also be boiled. However, after this procedure, vitamins and minerals in it will remain even less than after boiling on the stove.
How to boil milk in a microwave? The exact recipe for heat treatment of this product in a microwave oven can not be given - the duration depends on the volume of the liquid and on the capacity of the unit. In addition, when using a microwave oven, it's hard to notice the moment when milk starts to overflow, so we recommend you pour it into a glass or other deep container.
To boiled milk for a long time did not spoil, add a teaspoon of sugar for each liter of the product, while it is boiling.
If desired, the saucer will be replaced by a special circle or "lodge" - these devices can be bought at any hardware store.
Neither a circle, nor a saucer is needed, if the walls of the pan lubricate slightly above the milk level - so it will not run away either.
A pinch of soda will not let you curdle stale milk, if you needed to boil it.
If the milk is still burnt, pour it intoanother dish, adding half a teaspoon of salt for every 2 liters of the product, and lower the dishes into a large container filled with cold water (for example, a basin). Burnt liquid is best not to give to small children, but you can add it to baking.
If you are not going to drink milk immediately after boiling, pour it into a tightly closed dish so that it does not absorb the smells of other foods, and put it in the refrigerator.
Plaque, which is formed after boiling milk, you need to thoroughly wash off. It is better to start a separate container, which you will only use for this procedure.
If there is no possibility to store the sterilizedmilk in the cold, boil it twice a day (morning and evening) and cover with a lid only after full cooling. So the product will remain for two to three days.
Now you know how to boil the milk. We hope this information will be useful for you.

Following on from the news of the invoice financing platform's failure yesterday, the investment trust is the latest investor to be hit.
The £742m P2P Global Investments portfolio is the latest investment trust to be hit by the collapse of invoice finance platform Urica, which went into liquidation last week.
Following on from what it says was a large scale fraud in its French operations, the platform closed down resulting in write offs for its equity holders including the Artemis Alpha Trust. Lindsay Whitelaw, CEO and founder of Urica, and a former partner at Artemis, declined to comment on the matter to AltFi citing ongoing legal inquiries but in an email correspondence seen by AltFi to its customers he underlined that it had suffered a large fraud at the beginning of the year that it was unable to recover from and that other financial institutions were also defrauded by the same client.
"We have been trying to secure the necessary funding we required to keep trading but that unfortunately has not been successful," he said in the email.
P2P GI had an equity investment in URICA as well as providing a revolving credit facility, it said in a stockmarket update today. The equity investment carried a value of £5.5m with the initial investment made in October 2015.
The - now - written off equity stake represents 0.74 per cent of the trust's last published net asset value (NAV).
The revolving credit facility is to a separate entity - URICA Europe Limited - "a Jersey vehicle established to acquire interests in English and French invoice finance receivables for which URICA Limited acts as servicer," as P2P GI puts it.
"The receivables are short term in nature and also benefit from credit insurance," P2P GI said in the statement.

Indian Influence on The Art of Japan (AD 538-1333) provides a comprehensive study of how Buddhist Philosophy and religious concepts completely changed the socio-religious environment and consequently the artistic creations of Japan. The remarkable ability of the people of Japan to comprehend the essence of Buddhism was the key element which helped in transforming the existing Japanese society into a much higher and elevated level of culture. This book makes a meticulous study of the truimphant march of Buddhism and the power of the Japanese people to assimilate the foreign culture, effected through the study of the translations of Buddhist Sutras and also in transforming the art scene which was essentially derived from the cultural heritage of India, as well as that of the Orient.
Temporally, the scope of the book is expansive, the period covered is from the fifth millennium bc to mid-fourteenth century AD.
The book traces the development of the formative arts, through Archaic (pre-historic and proto-historic) Age, - sometime around the fifth millennium BC, which continued until the introduction of Buddhism in the sixth century AD.
It studies Japan's ancient beliefs, that is, Shinto, and the impact of Buddhism on Shinto ; the creation of Ryobu Shinto and the emergence of Shinto art.
It concentrates on the arts of the Early Historic Age or an era of Buddhist culture, which is subdivided into the Asuka Period (late seventh century-early eighth century AD), and Tempyo Period (eighth century AD)
The final chapters are devoted to the study of the arts of the Early Heian Period (AD 794-897) when Buddhist sculpture and painting were dominated by the metaphysical cults of esoteric Buddhism; the Late Heian Period (AD 897-1185) when under the refined culture of the aristocratic class there was considerable artistic experimentation giving rise to the Yamato-e, a native Japanese style of painting; and the rise of a new distinctive popular cult, the Jodo cult or faith in Amitabha Buddha, which inspired a new type of religious painting
A study of the arts of the Kamakura Period (AD 1185-1333) when the spirit of the new age was reflected in the works of the great masters in Buddhist sculpture and the rapid growth of picture scrolls or e-makimono, especially religious scrolls inspired by Buddhist sects.
This book would be of great interest to students and research scholars, and also serve as an important reference work for teachers of Japanese art and culture.

Bothwell Historical Society
…reflecting aspects of the village's heritage
About Bothwell
Bothwell Library

Covenanters' Field
Bothwell Historical Society has been active in promoting 'Historic Bothwell' and in this regard has published the following books. Click on each image to open the PDF.
WHERE A RIVER BENDS
Jack Gallacher, wrote a book which tells something of the 1,500 year old story of Bothwell and how the history of the village has been closely linked with that of the Scottish Nation. It was published in 2011.
Lest We Forget is the story of the men of Bothwell who fought and died in the First World War. It was published in July 2014. It details the war records and biographical information of those servicemen of Bothwell who died for their country between 1914 and 1918 and whose names are recorded on local war memorials and gravestones.
BOTHWELL STORIES
Bothwell Stories was published in the summer of 2015. It is an anthology of stories, reminiscences and photographs of Bothwell in times past.
BOTHWELL PARISH CHURCH KIRKYARD
At the invitation of the Minister, Reverend James Gibson, a group of volunteers from the Bothwell Historical Society photographed and, where possible, recorded the inscriptions on the gravestones at Bothwell Parish Church kirkyard. In addition, the family background of those interred was researched. The book, published in the spring of 2017, adds greatly to the knowledge of the history of the Church and the community and will provide a valuable resource for future generations.
ARCHIE'S HISTORY OF BOTHWELL
Published in September 2016, Archie's History of Bothwell is a children's history of the village. It features 'Archie' the scarecrow mascot of the Bothwell Scarecrow Festival. It depicts Archie's scarecrow ancestors and their connection to various aspects of Historic Bothwell.

Manchester United and Fenerbahce are reportedly yet to agree a fee for the transfer of Robin van Persie, despite the striker being unveiled by the Turkish club on Tuesday, 14 July, according to a report in The Independent.
The Dutch forward had a difficult 2014/15 campaign with the Red Devils struggling for form and fitness during the course of the season. He only managed 10 league goals, a far cry from the 31 goals he scored in his debut campaign to lead United to their 20th Premier League title.
Van Persie made it clear that he wanted to play regular first-team football, and it looked unlikely that Louis van Gaal was ready to offer him that. This prompted the forward to look for a move elsewhere despite stating his desire to remain with the club and fulfill the final-year of his current contract.
The Turkish club unveiled the forward before nearly 15,000 fans at the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium in Istanbul and the former Arsenal skipper vowed that he will do his utmost to help the club win as many trophies in the coming seasons.
"I'm humbled to see that so many great fans came today to greet me and to welcome me to your family," Van Persie told the gathered fans, according to the Guardian.
"I promise you one thing; I will do everything in my power to help Fenerbahce win as many trophies to make you guys happy because if I see today, I can only imagine how it would be if you win the league what kind of party that would be."
The report claimed that Fenerbahce and United are still to agree a fee, but a fee of around £5m ($7.8m) has been mooted for the Netherlands international.


Not too long ago, I ordered (from an antique books store in Australia) a book that included the letters of Rajah James Brooke to his lady friend Baroness Angela Burdett-Coutts.
It chronicles the most interesting relationship between Rajah Brooke with this lady, who actually gave significant sums of her own money in support of Rajah Brooke's cause in Sarawak. One would think we should have at least a road in Kuching named after her.
Anyway, this book will obviously take pride of place in my Sarawak history book collection. Reading these letters is interesting because it gives me amore direct impression of James Brooke's thoughts and writing style. In the history books that we were taught from in school, it was usually a third person's narrative of the Brooke story. In this book, you get a first-hand insight into the First Rajah (and even before he became Rajah).
One of the descendant of Rajah James enemy (Makhota) still hates his guts! anyway, this descendant is also my uncle.


Bought 4000 shares of CBWTF at 12:36 ET. Sold 20 minutes later for a small profit. I believe this stock will get back to the $1.00 area once earnings come out in February as revenue projections are huge. It could get even higher. Tried to buy in at end of day but did not get order filled. Will buy in on Wednesday and hold.


Rogue One is hitting theaters, and with its release, we now have an "official" answer to how Princess Leia received the plans to the Death Star in A New Hope. In years past, however, when the old Expanded Universe flourished, there was another explanation... and it's more complex and ludicrous than you could possibly imagine.
Rogue One is set very shortly before the events of A New Hope—and, spoiler-free synopsis here, it pretty much features the Rebels learning what the Death Star is, that the plans can help them destroy it, and then getting the plans. It takes place over a matter of a few days at most. In the EU, however, "Operation Skyhook"—the plan to steal the plans after the discovery of the Death Star—began more than the two years prior to the events of A New Hope.
Even stranger is how the Rebels learned of the superweapon's existence in the first place. This takes place in the Force Unleashed video game series, when Darth Vader captures Mon Mothma, Bail Organa, and Senator Garm Bel Iblis during a meeting in the earliest days of the Rebellion and... just decides to take them to the Death Star to show it off, basically. On top of that, the senators don't actually learn what the battlestation is capable of during their imprisonment. They only know that it exists and is under construction. It's not until the Rebels finally confirm what the Death Star is capable of (after hearing rumors about a new Imperial superweapon) that Mon Mothma tasks Princess Leia with being responsible for tracking down schematics for the station.
Kyle Katarn is briefed by a wonderfully pixellated Crix Madine and Mon Mothma in the opening of Dark Forces.
The Tantive IV escapes from Raltiir to Toprawa, as shown in Empire #5.
A recurring theme during the run-up to Rogue One's release is cracking the joke that "Many Bothans died to bring you this information." As it's been stated countless times—even by us—that wasn't in relation to the First Death Star. It's the line famously uttered by Mon Mothma in relation to how the Rebels discovered the Death Star II in Return of the Jedi. But, shocking twist! In the expanded universe, many, many Bothans actually died to bring you the first Death Star plans, too.
This hilarious final twist in the long story of Operation Skyhook plays out in Star Wars: Empire at War PC game, which features a mission in which players play as the Empire, and discovering that the Bothan Spynet transmitted crucial security codes for the Death Star to Alliance High Command, go to the Bothan's homeworld of Bothawui with the Emperor himself in tow. The Emperor, along with a few of his Royal Guards, slaughter tons of Bothans as an act of revenge for the Spynet's actions, until a sole survivor of their attack pleads for his life by revealing to Palplatine that the full plans are being transmitted to the Tantive IV in the Tatooine system. It's the final "act" before the events of A New Hope in the EU, and it's totally about bringing the Many Bothans joke to the Death Star 1 party too.
Why the Hell Was It So Damn Complex?
So how did the mission to seize the Death Star schematics become so achingly overwrought in the old canon? Well, partially, you have a litany of Star Wars video games to blame.
"Steal the Death Star plans!" is a fantasy just like "fight at the battle of Hoth!" or "Take part in the trench run!" that has proved to be an appealing staple for countless video games, from the legendary Dark Forces (which opens with Kyle Katarn stealing the plans), to Empire at War or Star Wars: Battlefront. So many different thefts of the plans were made playable moments in these games over the years, any attempt to cohesively mush them into a single canon alongside interpretations found in the books and comics was impossible. This is partially why they were re-retconned into being incomplete documents rather than the full plans many times over.
On top of that, it's a story beat that has always fascinated Star Wars fans, especially as we never got to see it on the big screen.... until now, of course. Even the inspiration for Rogue One was simply looking at A New Hope's opening crawl and wondering why the hell that hadn't been made into a movie yet. The theft of the Death Star plans is a monumentally crucial moment in Star Wars history, the event that sets the original movies in motion. It's easy to see why the Expanded Universe always wanted to go back to it and keep fleshing it out... if, in the end, they forgot to stop fleshing it out.

Some speak against outsourcing without realizing that it's a global phenomena and taking over its rein is not possible. Any attempt like this will only implicate the country is failing to cash in on some benefits. Efficient work at a lower wage is the most obvious benefit of outsourcing.
But apart from that, there are plenty of other benefits, which are not always acknowledged.
One of them is redoing the work. This causes a company to lose valuable work hours and resource efficiency. Outsourcing the work to an independently affiliated company saves them from such loses. If the work is not at par with expectation, the service provider will redo it to ensure that quality stays high.
Had it been redone by in-house employees, they couldn't have made time for some other important work. So the benefit of keeping internal resources free also comes with outsourcing.
Offshore outsourcing is the hot topic now. It combines the pros of outsourcing and offshoring. When the work is outsourced to a company, which is located offshore, it is called offshore outsourcing. Internet marketing is one area, which depends highly on offshore outsourcing because first, there's no drastic difference between the work done by an onshore company and that by an offshore company and secondly, clients can supervise the work constantly.
The pillars of internet marketing are SEO and social media. Clients can track ROI in these areas within a short duration and they can even look into the work real time and suggest changes if required. The offshore companies usually charge lower for internet marketing projects than national companies. Thus, clients can fully avail all the benefits of digital marketing through outsourcing to an offshore company.
The scope of offshore outsourcing in internet marketing is steadily increasing. That's mainly because newer domains such as apartment management, hotel asset management and real estate are also embracing online marketing for better visibility and to keep their operating cost lower, companies belonging to these industries are also opting for outsourcing to offshore agencies.
Hotels for example, were earlier focused at TV and print advertising for brand visibility. But with emerge of internet, people are making internet searches for finding a suitable hotel. Top hoteliers are thus, opting for internet marketing so that their offshore branches don't miss out the due amount of visibility.
For this reason, these companies are taking help of internet marketing. They are increasing online reach of their businesses, using services like TripAdvisor and reaching out to users through social media and that has increased their direct sales because customers are getting the chance to interact with them.
Internet marketing facilitates restaurant and golf marketing. Services like Facebook Places and Foursquare offer users to share their current location details with other users. A user in a restaurant or in a golf course can use the 'check-in' facility by those services. This is how brands could get exposure across a large segment of users through sharing.
competition is becoming stiffer, marketers are looking for new social circuits and popularizing the brands across them. Offshore outsourcing can help brands in going ahead with newer experimentation while keeping the cost low.
Guest Post: Denzel Harris has been writing on software development, IT services and offshore outsourcing for quite some times now and his articles display his experience in this area properly.

Obituaries Brooklyn Boro
Donald Elliott, planning visionary and Brooklyn Heights resident, dies at 89
December 29, 2021 Brooklyn Eagle Staff
Donald H. Elliott, as seen in a 1969 Department of City Planning promotional film. YouTube photo
Donald H. Elliott, Brooklyn Heights resident and chair of the City Planning Commission in the late 1960s and early 1970s, died last Thursday at his home at age 89.
In his focus on small business, neighborhood preservation and keeping local residents in their homes, as seen in the 1969 Department of City Planning promotional film, "What Is the City But the People," he and his colleagues praised brownstone neighborhoods like Park Slope, criticized "hack development" in places like Staten Island and the suburbs, and praised programs like Model Cities that were meant to encourage development in inner-city areas like Bed-Stuy.
This represented a break with the philosophy of Robert Moses, who concentrated on massive, functional-looking development and often was indifferent to the number of people he displaced.
As part of the administration of Mayor John V. Lindsay, he helped the establishment of the city's "community planning boards," now known as community boards, headed by district managers and containing local residents and businesspeople as members.
According to the New York Times, Elliott also advocated the establishment of special zoning districts that protected historic features such as the South Street Seaport from development and helped to defeat the plan for the Lower Manhattan Expressway, which was strongly opposed by Greenwich Village residents.
The Times added that Elliott and his associates also expanded the concept of air rights, the empty spaces above low-rise buildings that owners can sell to developers of nearby sites, at least in some neighborhoods.
Elliott, trained as a lawyer, became city planning commissioner when he was only 34, according to press reports at the time.
At Yale Law School, he wrote a paper on urban advocate Jane Jacobs, whose views on neighborhood preservation and small-scale development were very different from the then-predominant theories of Moses. He also attended the joint Harvard-MIT Joint Center for Urban Studies.
In 1972, he helped negotiate the federal government's purchase of Gateway National Recreation Area, which includes Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn and Jamaica Bay, the Times said. After his days as planning commissioner were over, he ran unsuccessfully for Congress in his Brooklyn district as a joint Democratic and Liberal Party candidate. The third-party Liberal Party in those days was an important power broker between the Democrats and the Republicans.
