Wolfsburg 2-2 St Pauli
The first half formations.
Wolfsburg scored a late equalizer to grab an undeserved point at home to fellow strugglers St Pauli. The draw now leaves both sides four points adrift from safety with just fives games to go.
With just six games of the season left, this battle between the sides in 16th and 17th was absolutely critical. Locked on points but separated by goal difference (Wolfsburg on minus ten, St Pauli on minus 21), a win for either of these sides here would elevate them to the heady heights of 15th place. Felix Magath's return to Wolfsburg hadn't eradicated the poor results and sloppy mistakes which marred the reigns of both Steve McClaren and Pierre Littbarski, but there had been a definite improvement in performances after the return of the arch disciplinarian. Nevertheless, a return of two wins from their last 20 games was an appalling run for a big-spending side who were champions of the country as recently as 2009.
As for St Pauli, although the word 'crisis' would be too strong to describe their situation, they came into this game with nothing going their way. The defeats were stacking up (seven on the trot), their last home game abandoned after a supporter threw an object at an official, and in the week leading up to this game, coach Holger Stanislawski announced his intention to leave at the end of the season. The 41-year-old Hamburg native has been at the club since 1993, so him announcing his departure before the season was out will work in one of two ways – either the players continue to dwell in their malaise until the campaign is over, or they'll play their hearts out to see off the big man in style.
The hosts were near enough at full-strength for this game, the only absentees being Brazilian midfielder Cícero and Congolese striker Dieumerci Mbokani. Stanislawski, on the other hand, had something of a crisis personnel-wise in defence – Bastian Oczipka, Carlos Zambrano, Moritz Volz and Carsten Rothenbach joining striker Fin Bartels on the sidelines. St Pauli held Wolfsburg to a 1-1 draw when the sides met in November, and given their precarious position and absentee list, they would probably have taken a similar result from this game before Dr Felix Byrch's first peep got things underway.
The home side instantly looked to take advantage of Pauli's heavy pressing by working some neat triangles to feed the flank-to-flank runs of Mario Mandžukić. The Croatian nearly linked to great effect with strike partner Grafite in the second minute when the Brazilian showed strength and vision to spin his tight marker and poke Mandžukić through. Either by luck or judgement, the dangerously positioned high Pauli defence played the 24-year-old offside. The visitors were content to let Wolfsburg have the ball in their own half early on, only pressing when they encroached on St Pauli territory. However, when Pauli won the ball back in their own half, they were slow to distribute it and had few options in the Wolfsburg half to choose from. Although the ball was generally Wolfsburg's to lose, they did little with it in the opening ten minutes: the lethargy Pauli deliberately injected into pressing was transferred to Wolfsburg's play on the ball, and thus, there was a lack of pace, precision or cohesion. St Pauli, meanwhile, began to resort to speculative punts over the top to unlock Wolfsburg, and one such move helped result in the game's first chance – the long ball won a corner, a poor outswinger wasn't cleared well enough by the home side, and the third-ball landed at the feet of Gerald Asamoah (let go by Felix Magath from Schalke in the summer), who wasted the chance.
The chance sparked the former Germany international into life, however, and he didn't let up thereafter – as epitomised in the 11th minute when his clever hold-up resulted in luring Simon Kjær out of position and into a clumsy bundle (the first of several such instances which resulted in the Dane being caught out of position). Asamoah's oomph sped the visitors up on the counter-attack, and in the 14th minute, a quick toss out from Thomas Kessler allowed Pauli to break at pace, before Florian Lechner blazed wastefully over the bar.
Wolfsburg were beginning to lose a grip on the game; their 4-3-1-2 banks split down the middle, with the still deep-sitting St Pauli exploiting this space. Magath's side had no natural width either, with the full-backs under orders to provide it. But even when they did, Wolfsburg's slow build-up play eliminated the element of surprise a burst forward from the back is supposed to create. Stanislawski's side began to exploit the lethargy of their hosts higher up the pitch, pressing in Wolfsburg's half more with real desire as the full-backs took advantage of a license to bomb forward – thus ensuring any won-ball could be dispatched to a player on the overlap in the blink of an eye. Yet although their commitment to attack between the tenth and 20th minute was relentless (Josué looked spent trying to keep tabs on Charles Takyi and the infield-lurking widemen), the Hamburg-based side didn't show any composure in front of goal.
In the 24th minute, Ashkan Dejagah finally added an element of explosiveness into the home side's attack – a drop of the shoulder and a pinch of determination earned him a pocket of space when cutting in from the left, but the subsequent shot was sliced wide. The ability to attack with speed seemingly became infectious – Dejagah's chance preceded an early scoop over the top for a Mandžukić diagonal dart behind the defence, but like the last time he tried such a move, up went the linesman's flag. The same official didn't brandish his flag a few minutes later, however, when Diego went down in the box. A fiery visiting side weren't afraid of putting themselves about, and the Brazilian playmaker looked to exploit this. He may not have got a penalty, but the sense of injustice at not receiving one gave his side a bit of momentum. However, a right-footed, little toe cross from Mandžukić that gave Grafite an easy opportunity to score from six yards out was wasted in the 26th minute, with Matthias Lehmann zooming back to put his body on the line, epitomising St Pauli's determination to get something from this game.
The chances helped push Pauli back, prising their banks further apart. This made Josué's life easier, and ensured he now had more of a chance to mop things up single-handedly. Resultantly, Dejagah stood out nearer the chalk, offering a counter-attacking threat. Nevertheless, Pauli's willingness to impose themselves on the game never subsided, and this, coupled with their aerial domination on Kessler's goal-kicks and using any loose balls to make first-time offensive passes, set in place a bonkers 120 seconds of play from the 32nd minute onwards. Kicking it off, a panicky Wolfsburg defence failed to clear their lines or set themselves up appropriately, allowing for Max Kruse's effort back-across-goal to be parried into the path of Asamoah, one of five brown-shirted players standing merely yards from goal. Alas, he somehow stabbed wide. Wolfsburg used the restart instantly, launching Diego to catch the guests off-guard. But the Brazilian hit the post, and the rebound, which hit Kessler's back, was accidentally knocked out of the former Juventus man's path by an unaware goalkeeper. Then, just one minute later, Asamoah again missed a golden opportunity after being set up by Takyi.
And after Ralph Gunesch's improbable infield-executed curled shot shaved the right-hand joint, Pauli paid the price for their profligacy in the 39th minute. Another Benaglio punt caused havoc, and Diego inexplicably outmuscled Markus Thorandt – catching him out of position with his defensive colleagues static, all of whom were praying rather than knowing that a certain Croatian striker was offside. But just like Pippo Inzaghi, Mandžukić's desire to play off the last shoulder and beat the offside trap was finally rewarded (a desire probably borne out of frustration, seeing as Magath's predecessors tended to play him on a flank behind a centre-forward). Although the volley wasn't that smoothly connected with, and, was rattled off seemingly a bit too early, it went in at the near right-hand post for 1-0. And when your side is in a relegation battle, the fact that the ball ripples the net is all that matters.
It was essential that the visitors kept Asamoah in the game, seeing as he'd been a pain in Kjær's backside in and out of the box during the first half. And his colleagues did just that, handing the veteran a chance on a plate in the 43rd minute. But yet again from just a few yards out, Asamoah's connection wasn't good enough. At least his defensive colleagues had bucked up their ideas in defending Benaglio's long goal-kicks – after losing yet another flick-on, they had now at least deployed a sweeper to ensure that their banks weren't too far apart, and any darting Wolfsburg player wasn't released one on one with Kessler.
The formations with a few minutes left on the clock and St Pauli 2-1 ahead.
There were no substitutions made by either coach for the second half, but tactically, there was an air of guardedness to Wolfsburg's play when St Pauli had the ball – suggesting perhaps that the idea was to hold onto the 1-0, while only looking to add to it on the break. Nevertheless, Benaglio's long goal kicks were still a useful weapon – Pauli continue to defend them deep, thereby prising their own banks apart, and thus ensuring Wolfsburg monopolized the loose balls. Stanislawski's attacking tactics were simple and direct – early long-diagonals over the hosts' full-backs (Florian Bruns so nearly got on the end of one of these within minutes of the half commencing), or side-to-side snappy passing, thus forcing Wolfsburg to expend energy, and resulting in room to make crosses. With this meaning Pauli's full-backs were constantly looking to burst and then stay forward, Magath replaced Makoto Hasebe with Jan Polák and reverted to a more width-based system. The two strikers looked to collect the ball on the chalk, with Dejagah or Polák offering an overlap or a ghost onto a cross at the back-post. This idea was obviously designed to prise St Pauli's centre-backs apart, giving Diego space from which to punish the plucky visitors.
Perhaps responding to Magath's plan, Stanislawski brought a fresh pair of legs onto his own right wing, replacing Bruns with Deniz Naki. And while this change didn't necessarily bring about an equalizer, it was Naki who drew his side level on the hour. Just about in the final-third of the pitch, Pauli had possession. With Wolfsburg's defence presumably braced for the cross, the floor-based diagonal through-ball to Asamoah caught Magath's back four off guard. The experienced striker cleverly teed up Takyi, further confounding expectation and totally throwing Wolfsburg off-kilter. Takyi's awareness and unselfishness was critical, as he then squared to Naki, who now had the simplest of tap-ins for 1-1! The equalizer was deserved, and ensured Wolfsburg paid the price for sitting off their guests in the second half.
Pauli were in the ascendancy after their goal; merciless in the tackle, superhuman in the fitness stakes, and offensive in the mindset. Asamoah was looking to make up for his missed first half chances, and his intelligent diagonal darts and hold-ups were simply too much for Kjær to handle. The away side's high, offside-tempting line was back, but with their midfield three narrow again and Diego replaced by Koo Ja-Cheol, Wolfsburg seemed to lose all spark. To hit home how second-best they were, St Pauli took the lead in the 76th minute. The visitors easily won a loose ball in the corridor between the home side's midfield and defence, with the latter set up to tackle the next phase of play in an abysmal shape. The chief culprit was Kjær once again, the once highly-touted Dane who's endured an absolute nightmare of a season. The former Palermo defender was stood several yards behind his defensive colleagues, eyes only for the nearby Asamoah. But Kjær followed his man out, unaware that Lehmann was jogging in towards the box through the left. Dennis Daube, on for Fabian Boll, played a simple through-ball (under scant pressure), and Lehmann, the 27-year-old pass-me-down midfielder from south Germany, showed fantastic composure to hand his side a surprise 2-1 lead.
Stanislawski, seemingly to save his legs and to waste time, replaced Asamoah with Marius Ebbers in the 85th minute. This was an odd decision as Asamoah's hold-up play was still vital to his side's cause. And as the hosts began to throw the kitchen sink at their guests, they snatched an unlikely equalizer one minute from time. A right-footed corner was swung in from the left by the home side's shining light, Koo, and there was Polák to power home a header for 2-2, giving his side's survival hopes a huge shot in the arm in the process.

Бракс је игра за две особе која потиче из Енглеске с краја прошлог века.

Прибор

Таблу за бракс чини мрежа од 8 х 8 квадрата на којој се игра са 7 плавих и 7 црвених фигура.

Правила игре

Играју је два играча са по 7 фигура, различитих боја. Једна фигура је обележена звездицом. Табела је подељена на 64 квадрата (поље 8x8), али се игра одвија дуж линија које су као и боје фигура - плаве и црвене. Њихови пресеци су љубичасте тачке. На тим тачкама су фигуре и оне могу пратити своју боју путање. Креће се са ивице табле. Сваки играч има право на само једну стазу и заустављање на љубичастој тачки (пресеку плаве и црвене). Фигуре се могу кретати у свим правцима, али не могу да стану на поље на којем већ стоји нека фигура. Раздаљина коју може прећи једна фигура зависи од боје линије којом се креће.

Начин кретања фигура

 Фигура које се креће истом линијом, исте боје као што је она, може се померити за један или два сегмента на потезу.
 Фигура која треба да се креће линијом друге боје може се померити само за један сегмент приликом сваког потеза.
 Фигура која иде пољем исте боје, не мора да иде два поља у првој линији, већ има право да после првог потеза промени правац.

Фигура је "поједена" када противник дође на њено место. Ухваћена фигура се уклања са табле.

Нека фигура прети супарничкој када има могућност да је "поједе" у једном потезу, односно када је удаљена од ове једним сегментом или два (ако су обе њене сопствене боје). Играч који "прети" супарничкој фигури, може речи "БРАКС", приморавајући на тај начин супарника да одмах помери ту фигуру. Ако након најаве "БРАКС" играч држи под претњом више од једне противничке фигуре, други играч има могућност да изабере коју ће фигуру померити а први играч не може рећи "БРАКС" док не помери неку своју другу фигуру. Када је фигура у "БРАКСУ" може се померити у било ком правцу, може заробити фигуру која јој прети, ако је иста на линији. Када играч остане са само једном фигуром, а други играч са две, обојица губе право да најаве "БРАКС".

Суштина игре

Суштина је да се фигурама опколи противник и поједе његова фигура. У било ком случају отворени су путеви за бекство.

Rioters in one U.S. city run wild despite guilty verdict for Derek Chauvin
By Jack Davis, The Western Journal
Published April 21, 2021 at 12:03pm
Vandalism and rioting broke out in Portland, Oregon, on Tuesday night in response to the verdict in the trial of Derek Chauvin.
Chauvin, a former Minneapolis police officer, was convicted on all charges in connection with the death of George Floyd. Floyd's death on May 25, 2020, triggered months of rioting and anti-police protests in Portland, leading police to be ready for violence in response to the verdict.
Hours after the verdict, a crowd gathered by the Mark O. Hatfield Federal Courthouse and Multnomah County Justice Center, which have been the centers of violence in Portland for almost a year.
The rioters began spray-painting the Justice Center, according to The Oregonian.
Later on, as one group moved through downtown, rioters smashed windows.

The unrest attracted about 100 people, Portland police said in a news release.
"A dumpster fire was started near the area. The fire was ultimately extinguished by a community member," police said.
Two people were arrested, police said. One was charged after allegedly breaking and spray-painting the windows of a local coffee shop.
The second arrest, of Randy Gray, 36, came after a confrontation between protesters and police.
WARNING: The video below includes vulgar language that some viewers may find offensive.

Multiple videos caught all or some of the incident. Portland police posted their official description of what happened.
The full video "showed a Portland Police sergeant walking his bike when a person dressed in all black stepped in his path. The sergeant moved the person aside, when another person punched the sergeant in the head," police said.

"A scuffle began and the sergeant was knocked to the ground. The sergeant landed in a dangerous position, underneath the suspect and on his back. That's when other officers moved in to stop the assault. In response to the violent conduct, some focused blows were used," police added.
"Pepper spray was also deployed by an officer. After the suspect was handcuffed, officers rendered aid to help alleviate the effects of the pepper spray," the police release said.
Police said Gray was charged with assaulting a public safety officer, assault in the fourth degree, harassment, disorderly conduct in the second degree and criminal mischief in the third degree.
Police then advised the protesters to leave the area.

Q: Variadic template of variadic template class I am trying to create a function named Choose which can take the following as arguments:
template<typename... Args>
class Option
{
    Option(Args... arguments)
    {
        // irrelevant
    }
    // ...
}

void Foo()
{
    Choose(
         Option<int, int>(3, 5),
         Option<int>(7,123),
         Option<int, int, int, int>(1, 2, 3, 4)
    );
}

So I have a class with variadic types, and I want to create a function that takes any number of instances of that class, of which every instance can have different arguments for its types.
I was able to create such a function, where all instances need to have the same arguments for their types:
template <template <typename... Args> class... Opt, typename... Args>
void Choose(EnemyAIState& state, Opt<Args...>... option)
{
    // irrelevant
}

void Foo()
{
    Choose(state,
        Option<int>(1),
        Option<int>(2),
        Option<int>(3)
    );
}

However, I am unable to achieve my final goal, as I cannot find the right syntax to use. I am hoping you can help me in the right direction.

A: I don't think you can do what you are trying to do directly - you'd need something like a "pack of packs", and there's no such thing.
If you want better error messages, write a static_assert that tests that each of the types passed in is an Option:
// helper template that checks all of values are true
template<bool... values>
struct all_true;

template<>
struct all_true<> : std::true_type { };

template<bool b, bool...values>
struct all_true<b, values...> : std::integral_constant<bool, b && all_true<values...>::value> { };

template<typename... Args>
struct Option
{
    Option(Args... /*arguments*/)
    {
        // irrelevant
    }
    // ...
};

// trait class that tests that a type is an Option
template<typename T>
struct is_option : std::false_type { };

template<typename... Args>
struct is_option<Option<Args...>> : std::true_type { };

template <typename... Opt>
void Choose(Opt... arguments)
{
    // check that each type is an Option
    static_assert(all_true<is_option<Opt>::value...>::value, "Arguments must all be Options");
    // irrelevant
}

Demo.

A: If processing the parameters one at a time, the standard variadic template solution works well:
void Choose()
{
    //do nothing, end of list
}

template <typename... Args, class... Rest>
void Choose(const Option<Args...>& option, Rest&&... rest)
{
    //irrelevant

    Choose(std::forward<Rest>(rest)...);
}

It gives the same error message you'd get the other way, just in a more intimidating callstack size.  This is how most variadic template functions work that I've seen: quasi-recursion.

7 New Year's Eve Movies on Netflix You Can Watch to Ring in 2020
By Anna Menta Twitter @annalikestweets Dec 31, 2019 at 9:00am

If you would rather watch New Year's Eve movies on Netflix than go outside on the craziest nights of the year, you've come to the right place. Who knows what 2020 will bring—besides the headache-inducing anxiety that comes with a presidential election—but even if you don't party tonight, you'll want to honor the occasion somehow. After all, 2020 is not just a new year—it's a whole new decade.
For those looking for a lowkey way to ring in both the year and the new decade, watching a New Year's Eve-themed movie is perfect. Though not quite as abundant as Christmas films, there are some truly great New Year's Eve scenes in films that would be perfect to watch tonight, such as Meg Ryan explaining what the heck "Auld Lang Syne" in When Harry Met Sally..., Daniel Day-Lewis glowering at New Year's Eve balloons in Phantom Thread, and Gary Sinise (Lieutenant Dan) looking sad while covered in confetti in Forrest Gump. Unfortunately, none of those films are Netflix. Sorry!
As Netflix continues to produce more and more original content—including high-profile Oscar contenders like Marriage Story and The Irishman—the streaming platform also hosts fewer and fewer licensed titles. That means the pickings are slim when it comes to New Year's Eve-themed or New Year's Eve-adjacent movies on Netflix. You'd be better off renting one of the above films I listed on Amazon Prime or iTunes, in my opinion, if you really want to get into the New Year's spirit. But if you're determined to watch a New Year's Eve movie on Netflix, you do have a few options. You just might want to be a bit more generous when it comes to what you consider a "New Year's Eve" movie to be.
'About Time' (2013)

Remember this adorable Richard Curtis rom-com starring Domhnall Gleeson as a time traveler who falls in love with Rachel McAdams? Remember that brief but hilarious part at the beginning where, while at a New Year's Eve party, some girl tries to kiss Domhnall Gleeson but he shakes her hand instead? It's a small moment, but it's also the catalyst for his character's first attempt at a time-travel redo. Therefore, About Time is a New Year's Eve movie. I rest my case.

'Happy New Year' (2014)

If you're in the mood for some Bollywood, this Indian Hindi-language musical is all about a diamond heist that goes down on New Year's Eve. A musical that's also a comedy-action-heist film? I can't think of a better way to ring in the New Year.

'The Time Traveler's Wife' (2009)

In The Time Traveler's Wife, starring Rachel McAdams in another movie where she falls in love with a time traveler (this time played by Eric Bana), said time traveler (spoiler alert!) dies on New Year's Eve, 2006. Remember that part where he wakes up in the snow and fireworks are going off? Totally a New Year's Eve movie.

'Rosemary's Baby' (1968)

A famous scene from this 1968 psychological horror film finds star Mia Farrow spending a very unsettling New Year's Eve at her devil-worshipping neighbor's house. It's a NYE party that features raw meat and toast to "Year One" (1966)—not a very promising send-off to the new year.

'Someone Great' (2019)

OK, it's not really a New Year's Eve scene, but in this romantic comedy from writer/director Jenn Kaytin Robinson, the two romantic leads—Gina Rodriguez and Lakeith Stanfield—first meet at a holiday party. New Year's counts as part of that holiday! Plus, this movie is super cute and you should watch it.

'Eat Pray Love' (2010)

Hear me out: There may not be a New Year's Eve scene in Eat Pray Love, the movie starring Julia Roberts. But there is a New Year's Eve scene in Eat Pray Love, the memoir by Elizabeth Gilbert (played by Roberts in the film). After Gilbert arrived at an Indian ashram, the people there were celebrating the holiday. Even though Gilbert had no one to ring in the new year with, she said she didn't feel lonely. You can watch the movie and imagine that scene exists.

Netflix's New Year's Eve Countdown Collection
If you're looking for something to put on for your kids this holiday, Netflix offers a number of short films (as in, 1 to 2 minutes long) as "fake countdowns," featuring your kid's favorite characters counting down to the new year. You can put this countdown on for your kids around 9pm, put them to bed, and head to your parties. You can check out the full collection by searching "New Year's Eve Countdown" on Netflix, but highlights include characters from The Boss Baby, Spirit, and Fuller House.

National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has called on the Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, to intervene urgently in resolving the crisis rocking the Lagos State University (LASU).
It will be recalled that the staff unions, comprising members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) and the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU), had chased the Vice Chancellor, Prof. John Obafunwa, out of his office, forcing him to be operating from the Ikeja campus of the university.
The South West chapter of the student's body, through its Secretary General, Obanobi Bidemi, criticised the continued lock-out of the VC, saying the action had crippled all academic and social activities in the school.
The association noted that the students were the worst hit as they had been unable to access their last semester results due to the absence of the VC to preside over the senate meeting.
The crisis, he added, had resulted in insecurity and stifled infrastructural development on campus and caused the continued delay of the 2014/2015 convocation.
Among the demands of the association are that the university senate and administrative block must be opened by the Lagos State Government within seven days.


>> detailing the reason (i.e., only needing controls)?
> Yes, I'd be very happy to see the spec recommend paging (and mention potential pitfalls if implementations chose not to do paging).
> Understood. What I've been trying to communicate, though, is that the spec leaves a lot of choices to the implementation, without discussing the impact of those choices.
That's a very good remark.
Even if the spec leaves options open, it should explain the consequence of the choices.
>> Note the similarity with SPARQL query <form>s, which are also not spec'ed.
> I don't understand the comparison here. Could you explain?
The original point was: should we have a resource with only a hypermedia control?
My reply to that was: sure, that's possible, and we don't even need to spec it.
i.e., which key/value pairs to use in the query string etc.
that enables users to execute such a query easily.
In practice, all SPARQL endpoints I know provide such a form.
without explicitly needing to specify it.
> Yes, understood. And I hope my feedback is taken as trying to help that process, not just complain.
Certainly—for any learning process, feedback is crucial. So thanks for that!
> My suggesting a separate API for accessing triple counts was a suggestion for a possible way to deal with problems that occur without paging, though I'll admit it isn't the nicest solution. My problem (and proposed solution) essentially goes away if the spec recommends paging (and if work on query execution using TPF talks about what happens if paging isn't used).
Yes, I agree that paging is vital, and the spec should recommend it. Good catch.
>>> I'm afraid I wasn't very clear about my concern here. The NOTE in section 3.6 talks about what the server should do when it receives various requests from a client. It gives two example URLs that seem like they should reference the same resource, the first with "?s=a&page=3" and the second with "?page=3&s=a". The text doesn't indicate where those URLs came from. We're left to assume that they originated with the server, but intuitively the server should have only generated one of those (either that or the server implementation is order-agnostic with respect to the query parameters).
>> is exactly the same IRI through which the fragment was requested.
> If that's all you're trying to say, then I think we're in agreement (on both the intended point and the desire for a simpler example).
Thanks for your valuable input, and please keep it coming!
I will notify when issues 92 and 93 are resolved.

Cockroaches are omnivorous scavengers, which means that they eat virtually anything they can get their mandibles on. They are also highly resilient insects, being able to live for months with a minimal food supply and go weeks without water. When attempting to rid your home of cockroaches, it is therefore crucial to keep both their food and water supplies to the absolute minimum by following the steps outlined below.
Refrigerate – Any food in the house should ideally be kept in the refrigerator. The refrigerator is a self-sealing environment, and a cold one. As cockroaches prefer warm to cold and can fit through cracks as small as 1/16 of an inch wide, the freezing and thoroughly sealed space inside the fridge will effectively keep them from surviving on your groceries.
Seal – Any food that you do not wish to keep in the refrigerator should be kept in tightly sealing plastic containers. This goes for bread, fruit, and any other food product that you might otherwise leave sitting on the counter. Though you may not see roaches going for these food sources during the day, roaches (being nocturnal creatures) will happily creep out at night to munch on them as a midnight snack.
Vacuum – Keeping your floors free from food particles and the other insects that such particles attract subtracts both crumbs and bugs from the cockroaches' potential menu.
Wash – Washing dirty dishes and wiping down surfaces with anti-grease solutions after meals is essential in keeping cockroaches from thriving in your home. The fact that a cockroach can survive for up to a week on a single greasy fingerprint is a good incentive for keeping your dishes, tables, chairs and counters clean.
Dry – Water (and juices that contain water) are better than food for a cockroach, as cockroaches can survive with water but no food for months on end, while given food but no water they can only survive for about a week. Drying up spills, toweling off the sink and/or tub after you shower or bathe, and plugging up the drains will keep roaches from finding the water that they need to survive.
If you are successful in keeping both food and water entirely inaccessible to your roaches, they can be dead within a week. However, because cockroaches are so resilient and require so little sustenance to survive it can be highly difficult to be vigilant enough to exterminate them yourself.
If your roaches have persisted despite your best efforts to eliminate their food and water supplies in your Philadelphia tri-state area home, you can save $50 on roach extermination treatment by calling Green Pest Solutions today.

Things you shouldn't do in the surf lineup
Crowded lineups often generate tense vibes at the peak. Here's what everyone should avoid doing in a busy surf break.
The lineup is the area where waves break; the so-called take-off zone. Therefore, it is the place where the majority of surfers wait for their treasures, sitting on their surfboards and looking out to the horizon.
When we're lined up waiting for our turn, we must remember that we're not alone, and everyone around us is near you for the same reason - to catch the most and the best waves.
They're not our enemies, and they're not our opponents. They're people like us with virtues and defects. In a perfect world, we would share waves between us, and have fun on the same rides.
But that's not what happens in the world's most frequented surf breaks. Throughout the decades, the surfing community established a set of informal and unofficial rules - or code of conduct - that tries to keep the act of riding waves safe for everyone.
However, as you might have noticed for several times, surf etiquette has its holes and seldom is the subject of misinterpretations. The source of problems is always clear: greed.
From a statistical perspective, it is clear that cool and healthy vibes lead to more waves ridden. Many time, surfers who are aggressively fighting for waves tend to let many waves go unridden. The same rule applies to very strict interpretations of priorities.
Conflicts will always destroy your surfing experience. Be a gentleman in the water. Surfing is not a battle. Don't do the following on your home break:
Snaking: don't back paddle - that's one of the most disrespectful actions in surfing. You're not being smart, you're being a prick, and sooner or later you will be paid back in your own coin;
Hassling: don't compete and hustle for waves like if it's the most important thing in the world. Let other breathe and enjoy the pleasures of surfing - don't be that constant shadow who sits two yards away from other fellow wave riders;
Yelling and Screaming: the sea is a place peace and retreat - don't be the primitive alpha male or female that is always showing off, or teaching others to surf by vociferating their advice and orders out loud;
Dropping In: just because you're older, experienced or a local surfer, you don't have the right to all waves in the ocean. A champion surfer is more than a skilled waterman or waterwoman - integrity and humility are what makes us admirable sportsmen and sportswomen;
Kicking Your Feet Wildly: If you need extra leg power to catch a small wave on shortboard, kick your feet gently, and having in mind that there are people around you who will only have a shower after their session ends;
Ditching The Surfboard: some surfers still think it's cool to ditch the surfboard when their ride ends - it's not. And it can be really dangerous, especially the nose of the board hits someone in the face;

Notebook: Busy day leads Goode back to Packers

Notebook: Busy day leads Goode back to Packers There's a reason the Green Bay Packers didn't wait any longer to sign veteran long snapper Brett Goode. Check out this story on packersnews.com: http://pck.rs/2w1Rzgb

GREEN BAY - There's a reason the Green Bay Packers didn't wait any longer to sign veteran long snapper Brett Goode.
If they had, Goode might very well have been playing somewhere else.
Goode visited the New York Jets for a workout Monday and was drawing interest from some other teams, he said, when the Packers gave him a call. They rang him up shortly after the exhibition opener against Philadelphia on Thursday night and signed him on Saturday.
"Not really in the spring," Goode said of receiving interest. "But as soon as training camp hit we started hitting really big. I told my wife it was kind of funny, we didn't hear anything all spring, she goes into labor and we get a bunch of calls.
Goode's wife, Monica, gave birth to their daughter last Monday, the same day the long snapper had to fly to New York to meet with the Jets. He was there for the birth, worked out for the Jets and flew immediately back to his home in Arkansas.
The Packers called because first-year long snapper Derek Hart hasn't been consistent and they didn't want to leave themselves vulnerable for the regular season. Goode and Hart, who both are represented by agent Kevin Gold, will compete for the long-snapping job.
"Even when I'm by myself I'm still competing," Goode said. "It's just the same thing as me getting called to work out at other places. Once the regular season hits, I think you're still competing every week because this is a business you're not guaranteed anything."
Defensive end added: Less than a week after releasing Letroy Guion, the Packers added a defensive lineman to their 53-man roster.
With rookie Montravius Adams still sidelined after foot surgery, the Packers were down two players on the defensive line and needed to bring someone in to help fill out the position. So they claimed Shanell Jenkins off waivers from the Seattle Seahawks.
The 6-3, 295-pound Jenkins, who played at Division II Shepherd University in West Virginia, was an undrafted free agent who signed with Denver in 2016. He was cut in August, signed by the Dallas Cowboys and then released on the final cutdown.
He joined Seattle's practice squad in December and went through their offseason program and training camp before being released Saturday.
Jenkins had impressive testing numbers coming of college. He ran the 40-yard dash in the 4.8-second range, had a 20-yard short shuttle time of 4.5 seconds, did the three-cone drill in 7.25 seconds and performed 24 reps of 225 pounds on the bench press, according to NFL analyst Gil Brandt.
Jenkins probably will play end in the base and defensive tackle in the nickel. He had 13½ sacks as a senior and was named Mountain East Conference defensive player of the year.
Calming the nerves: Rookie fourth-round pick Jamaal Williams was the second running back to enter last week's exhibition game against the Philadelphia Eagles. He waited his turn behind starter Ty Montgomery and took the field at the start of the second quarter.
Williams was nervous, but the former BYU star has an interesting method for calming himself down.
"You're gassed up, ready to go and then you're sitting there waiting for your turn to go," Williams said. "But mostly I get my nerves out by the first carry, running straight into somebody. Put your helmet right in their chest and just bang. After that, then you're good to go, ready to go, you already got the contact done. So now it's just having fun out there."
He finished the game with four carries for 14 yards on a night when the Packers threw it much more heavily than they ran it. But the pressure is gone now. By Saturday, when the Packers visit Washington, Williams says he will be ready to roll.
"One thing is I'm not as nervous as the first time you get the ball on your first carry," he said. "Once we're going into the Washington game, all the nerves about playing in NFL games and being in NFL stadiums is gone now. Now I feel like I'm ready to play, ready to go out there and just try to produce."

There was once a town where certain prominent citizens—widely agreed to be intelligent, enlightened, and benevolent—came to believe that it was a terrible crime that there were dogs and masters. "In days gone by," said their mayor, "we used to think that all dogs needed a master, but what is dog ownership, really, but slavery? And we did away with slavery many centuries ago." He paused to acknowledge the "damn rights" from the assembled activists. "But the latest scientific research shows that dogs are terribly unhappy and mistreated as pets; they are obese—and some are even beaten to death..." At this a woman in the back row waved a gruesome picture that showed a Pit Bull suppurated with sores that oozed a green-red liquid.
"This can all be attributed," said the mayor, with a smug smile, "to the old superstition, brought here by certain settler-colonialists, who once tyrannised this land, that we should own things—own women, own slaves, and, of course, even own dogs. The master and the dog, as Professor Claire Wilkinson, from our very own college, now rated, incidentally, 'above outstanding' in the latest league tables, has told us how notions of patriarchal ownership are embedded in dog-human relations. Indeed, a Person of Color stopped my eight-year-old daughter in the park only last Tuesday and told her that every time she sees a dog being walked on a lead she cries; it reminds her that she is still subject visuo-traumatic repression by settler-colonial power structures. I mean, come on, it's 20XX—it's time to do better!"
A similar drumbeat had been in the media for several years and fashionable girls already inquired, over a light brunch, if their friends had seen that cute Instagram influencer who said dog ownership was just plain slavery. "I had a dog when I was a child," says one girl, slightly fluttering her eyelids, "but I'm ashamed about it now. I think it was mutually traumatic, for me and the dog—sometimes you can be...too close." "I totally get you," snaps her compatriot. And, later, when they turn to their daily news digest, the top report would be that yet another dog had been beaten to death by its owner. "We. Have. To. Do. Something," the petulant girl notes on her Instagram. "Daddy says that statistically it's all made up, more dogs are killed in swimming pools than by their owners but Daddy is just being silly. He's got some very bigoted views," she pouts to her boyfriend as he removes various items from her attic for her. "That right, sweetheart?" he says, absent-mindedly. "YES. And listen."
And so with that, there was a great applause and the town passed a bill to end dog ownership at once. For the most part, the owners surrendered their dogs willingly. Several lawsuits were filed with the courts to strike down the law, but the justices, impeccable members of several very conservative legal associations, were forced to admit that since a three-year-old could consent to sex reassignment surgery and since, according to various scientific papers from peer-reviewed journals, the average mature Cocker Spaniel enjoys the same cognitive abilities as a three-year-old human child it would be against the common law tradition, downright authoritarian and anti-liberal in fact, not to extend the same rights to the town's dogs—although, as a concession to one very reactionary justice, it was agreed that dogs with a demonstrated cognitive impairment could still have an owner for safeguarding purposes.
Consequently, the town's more subtle and wealthy dog lovers paid generous emoluments to noted caninologists to declare that their dogs were, so far as dogs go, completely retarded—a fact that was noted with a special bib marked with a large "R", so that the town Canine Rights Associate (formerly, dog catcher) would not liberate the dog and arrest the owner. Incidentally, the "R" stood for "Retrogressive Canine, Category III"—one of seventeen categories of canine cognitive impairment recognised by the state; but teenage boys often said it just meant "retard"; and although indulgent fathers laughed, they were still banished to their bedrooms for the evening for saying it.
Nonetheless, the residual dog owners still had to face the town's teenagers and, when they walked their dogs on a lead past a Starbucks, teenage girls would whisper to each other, "Like, she's got a dog on a lead; she's like one of those total racists." "Yeah, like just leave the frickin' dog alone—can't you be normal!" Sometimes, an indignant female dog owner would return to remonstrate with the girls and the scene would be recorded on a cellphone to ignite global outrage on social media. "I'm not racist, can't you read? Look it says 'R', my dog is retarded! He has to be on a lead. I have a certificate," protested the flustered owner. "Lady, 'R' stands for racist—and why are you saying the r-slur anyway? That's racist as well!"
There were dark mutters on social media that a secretive group of men with large beards and pick-up trucks, called "the Dogkeepers", would resist any attempts to take their hounds from them, possibly with violence. A brief scroll on their Facebook page revealed semi-literate screeds, later deleted, that warned the J*ws had planned the entire ban on dog ownership to dilute the blood of the purer breeds, those most suited for Aryan man, through free mating on the streets—complete mongrelisation, I tells you; they had it planned for centuries.
Yet all this miasmic conspiracy came to nothing in the end; some said the Dogkeepers planned to kidnap the town mayor and, indeed, several men were arrested on such a charge, although the trial collapsed five years later when it was revealed that seven of the ten Dogkeepers on trial were informers for the Sheriff's Department, in turn sponsored by the SKKER and HEATR programmes—central government initiatives originally designed to combat the threat of radical incel terrorism, but now turned, through special sequester in the latest budget, towards "human supremacy activists".
The town's lone eccentric, a retired college professor and Anglophile who always dressed in tweed, published a very mild editorial on his Facebook feed that suggested there was an essential dignity to dog ownership and a beauty in the relationship between man and dog, even if it was, he admitted, somewhat humbling for the dog. However, his account was immediately suspended and all his windows broken by an enthusiastic anti-fascist cell. Fortunately, the professor found a new role as a perennial guest on various quasi-dissident podcasts and YouTube shows, where he complained about the "intolerant left" and the decline of the classical liberal tradition—although he declined to speak about the existence of dog breeds. "It's more a question of tradition than pedigree," he would offer, somewhat lamely.
Despite his moderation, he lost his regular spot as a guest contributor to The Reasonable Conservative, a storied publication whose last comment on "the dog question" was an article by an intern entitled: "Lady and the Tramp: how classic cinema shows that the Founding Fathers opposed dog ownership and adored mongrels". "We would have kept him on, but, you know, we're a responsible moderate publication, and frankly he was, if you excuse the pun," the magazine's editor paused to adjust his bow tie, "dogwhistling, ah ha ha, to the alt-right; we can't have that. It's practically Hiterlite—Hitler was a great dog owner, as you'll know if you've read Andrew's latest book on Churchill..."
Otherwise, the liberation of the hounds went as planned. On the appointed hour and day, all the town canines were herded into what had been the city's Amy Schumer Memorial Park, now renamed the Schumer Canine Restoration Center and suitably reinforced with razorwire high and low. If you looked around that day you would have seen a great melange in that park: Alsatians, Pekingese, mongrels, Pugs, St. Bernards, Spaniels, Beagles—just about every breed you could imagine, and all engaged in a great democratic experiment; every dog sniffing bottoms, humping, barking, chasing, defecating, and howling for their lost owners.
For the most part, the owners left at once and many a man was heard to say to his wife, under his breath, "I'm sure they'll be happy there, honey. It's a nice big park; we best let them get on with their new life now." A few diehards came to visit their dogs every day and, of course, the dogs quickly found their way to the fence and snuffled the hands of their owners—a few howled piteously. For the most part, the persistent ex-owners were old women whose pet served as a little substitute baby, or perhaps smelly homeless men whose dog had been their only companion. These socially marginal figures had little to lose anyway, so kept up the visits; although, of course, various animal rights activists and anti-fascist cells would come and jeer at them: "Fuckin' fascist! Fuckin' supremacist! Your dog's free now, you fuck." This was usually followed with a milkshake thrown from a fast-moving car; eventually it was even possible to obtain substantial following on TikTok if you "shak'd the fash".
The whole affair came to a head when a homeless man scaled the fence one night when no one was looking and was found the next morning, surrounded by a pack of German Shepherds. "Yup. Wasn't much more than you could pour in two buckets," reported the night manager to the assembled press in an off-the-record briefing at the local taco stand. "I'm gonna need a new shovel, but my boss says there's no money," he added, between draws on a raspberry vape, gently wiping the beef grease into his overall.
Questions began to be raised as to conditions in the Schumer Canine Restoration Center, local luminaries heard whispered reports and received short Whatsapp audio clips and vids that revealed dogs with their fur matted and untended, some with open sores and covered in fleas—and others so thin that your could use their rib cage for a xylophone. Tentative questions were raised at various committees, but the mayor reassured people again and again: "Please, don't listen to fake news. Don't listen to misinformation. We have the best canine experts at the SCRC; they have the qualifications, I assure you. The tinfoil hat brigade and the supremacists and the hate-mongers are just trying to cause trouble; they learn from Russian blogs, according to the latest Federal Security Brief. I can assure you that there is a 97% survival rate in the center; and that is better than when dogs were owned." As for the journalists, they became less and less interested: "Dogs and civil rights? Look this is old news, the question is settled...we want something fresh—this is going two years back now."
Eventually, an independent documentary surfaced on YouTube. The dialogue with a former low-grade employee at the SCRC, face suitably blanked out, went as follows: "The dogs don't starve because they eat the smaller ones." "The smaller ones?" "You know like the rats, like, Legally Blonde dogs, Chihuahuas and shit. They get eaten, you know. It's like some Mockingbird shit, I don't know." "But those breeds run out, right?" "Yah. I mean when I left they started eating the puppies, mostly." "But the mayor says they survive?" "Well, thing is, depends how you count and the city counts in a particular way, let me explain..."
It was survival of the fittest. The boutique dogs, the kind city women carry in their handbags—Pugs and the like—went first; they were built for refined civilisation, not a general pen in a city centre. When the feed was poured out every morning and evening they had no chance against the big strong breeds who muscled in on the chow; it was a scene that would have been understood at a glance by Jack London. Other slightly larger breeds went next, eventually nothing survived that was smaller than a Spaniel—and even Spaniels were marginal. The dogs formed their own ecosystems and packs and—just as the Dogkeepers feared—strange couplings took place when the bitches were in heat; and these couplings produced exotic mongrels, socialised to the human-induced chaos that was the liberation camp.
Twenty years later, the dog issue had been largely forgotten. It was settled business. The town had, everyone agreed, progressed; they had moved on to bigger and better things. Everyone was freer now, it was quite agreed—even the dog owners pretended, in public anyway, to be relieved they no longer had to be responsible for those big ol' hounds. However, it was about this time, one August night, when the town was silent and stifled, that little Sara Ketteridge staggered into her uncle's house covered, almost head to toe, in blood. Her uncle took her up and rushed her to the emergency ward, but by the time he parked his car she was unconscious and a few hours later she was dead.
When the doctors said it was dogs, nobody gave it much thought. People had largely forgotten dogs by then. "I suppose it was some stray from one of the states where they still let humans keep dogs," sneered an activist. "It was probably traumatised from the way its owners treated him, went mad and attacked a human. Essentially, the little girl was a victim of human supremacy—nothing to do with the dog." And everyone nodded and agreed; it certainly made sense, people who owned dogs were, all knew, very evil people.
But this attitude did not last, for, several months later, an elementary school outing at a local scenic site was set upon by...by..."Well, it was hard to say plainly what they were exactly. I mean they were dogs, but not like no dogs I ever seen," explained an old man, who witnessed the attack, on the podcast UnderOccult World. "Was it the government? Was it aliens? Was it spirits? Will the truth of what happened at Willow Creek ever be told...?"
The mayor and the town hall insisted that the attack was not dogs. Indeed, a press spokeswoman suggested, to general guffaws from the public galleries, that it was rabid Canadian Racoons, recently reported in the area by the CDC. A local biology professor, a rather autistic German ethologist, was excoriated by the mayor's office when he told reporters, "Racoonz zay are not knownz for zavage pack attackz; and, besidez, the droppingz at zey scene are klearly from a kanine..." "This man," noted a press spokesman, "has a history of posting to far-right pro-dog-ownership blogs. He does it anonymously, like a coward, but last week we secured his doxx thanks to a leak by a third party. He is not a reliable expert, and should not be quoted by responsible media outlets. He is a far-right fanatic with a grievance. He needs to get a lifeand a girlfriend—and study this nation's values."
Yet most people in the town had decided better and by nightfall the streets cleared out, with little boys and girls yanked off the pavement by protective paternal arms. It became very quiet at night, so quiet that people were forced to listen to the old folks. Grandpa would sit in his rocker in the semi-dark and rock to the rhythm of the air-conditioning unit and sip his Dr. Pepper: "I tell you, in my day we had dogs but not like this. No, sir. A dog was a man's best friend and you could go up and pat a big old Alsatian and he'd let you. Dogs today, though—there's something different to 'em. They've been brutalised, made half-savage. I don't know that man owning a dog was the best thing; now everyone says it was bad back when a man owned a dog, but I'm here to tell you that maybe it wasn't such a good idea to let the government keep all the dawgs locked up there doing Gawd knows what to 'em."
Later, when grandpa has retired, the teenagers come to the kitchen to harangue their mother. "He's just like Hitler, Mom." "Now your Granpa is nothing like Hitler, sweetie." "But he's sooo e-m-b-a-r-r-a-s-s-i-n-g. When Nikki was here yesterday she heard him talking about dog leads and collars and she thought it was totally groace." "We just need to kill all the dawgs. Kill 'em all,'" spits her brother, himself embittered from illicit imageboard messages and obscene memes that mock the town hall's saccharine pro-dog propaganda. "Did you say the word?" "Yeah. Yeah. P*och. Lmao." "Wat did Ms. Stevens say?" "She said she'd send me to the principal and have me suspended if I used hate speech like that again. Just lol."
Back at the kitchen table, mom turns to her children and says: "I'm fed up with dogs, dogs, dogs. What matters in this house is that we earn a decent, responsible living. You're just trying to shock me, but you can't. Grandpa is an old man and he's going back down south in a few weeks, so let's just ignore him and get on with our lives and we'll have no more talk of dogs."
It was the next spring that Old Gray arrived. "He ain't the biggest dog I've ever seen—not that I've seen many—but there's something about him. Man, he freaked me. He is a freak that dawg." "Are you sure it's a dog? You know there are a lot of alt-right rumours about wild dog packs seeking out their old masters—crazy talk, tinfoil hat territory; you know, occult conspiracy theories." "Man, I don't know nothing about that but I've seen a feakin' dog. I seen one before they pulled the pictures on Wikipedia; and this was a dog, but not like any dog...he had....he had...an aura. He hit different, man. Different."
For a few months, Old Gray was a spectral presence in the town, known mainly through flashed messages and forum posts. The official media denied he existed; they denied there was a large pack of dogs gathered in the forests outside town; they denied that the SCRC had been found to have multiple holes in its fences—had done for years—and that the dogs it contained effectively wandered free. There were several fatal attacks, but there had been attacks for years now and people had learned to accept them as part and parcel of everyday life; nobody wanted to say for sure it was dogs—nobody wanted to be a pariah. Yet it was clear that recent attacks had taken on a more coordinated and fatal character; behind each attack lay a definite intelligence. By mid-summer, graffiti had appeared in town that read: I believe in Old Gray. The hipsters all had t-shirts printed to that effect, though if pressed on whether Old Gray existed they insisted that it was all ironic.
It all broke as a summer storm, one morning the town beheld a car outside the town hall completely surrounded by a perfect circle—a perfect canine circle, and the dogs, all agreed, were uniform in nature; if not of any breed that could be identified. The pack left as quickly as it had arrived, at the instigation of Old Gray himself, who loped out of an abandoned filling station. The pictures and videos that day were all strangely blurred; but from what can be gleaned after competent photographic enhancement, Old Gray stood about as high as a small Golden Retriever; he had a definite limp on his back right leg and a permanent smile, as if he were a laughing jackal.
The car was, as it turned out, an Uber that had just dropped the mayor at an event for his political committee a few blocks down the street. What happened next is well-recorded and enjoyed by all connoisseurs of the strange and grotesque; but briefly, what became known as "the Able Pie massacre" saw the mayor, his staffers, and a number of town assemblywomen butchered while they discussed strategy over coffee and waffles at the Able Pie Bakery. The mayor seems to have died last, his throat gouged open amid spilled coffee, whipped cream, and waffles. Naturally, they say Old Gray killed him, but the coroner would only venture that the wounds were, "...substantial, possibly canine in nature."
The massacre marked the town's end, for the dog pack had a free run on the streets and into the suburbs. The police were powerless, for a dog had as much legal protection as a small child and the media tried to focus on other crimes as much as possible—sometimes there would be a dramatic story about a far-right plot to re-establish dog ownership and the risks it posed to democracy, for actual crime reports and crime statistics most people relied on furtive texts and anonymous social media reports. Gradually, the town began to die; people sold up and nobody bought their homes. The grass took over streets where children used to play with their dogs and industry fell back to nothing. The few remaining humans moved about the streets furtively, always conscious that they would be arrested if they used lethal force on the pack—the pack that did not exist, according to the media; though locals barely raised their eyebrows and were no longer even angry at the lies.
The German ethologist sought a new post at a research station on the edge of the Black Forest. Before he left, he composed a brief report on his new blog, no longer anonymous—the damage was done. Here is an excerpt: "...the process of atomisation witnessed in this town seems to have had an extraordinary effect on the domesticated canines. Removed from their position as cherished property, the dogs were firstly winnowed in the most brutal conditions in the government camp—the weakest and the most affectionate were killed first. What remained, through strange couplings and a brutal socialisation, became "the pack"; behaviourally this was no wolf pack or common pack of strays—it was something more potent. When a dog—or a man—has lost his individual self, his individual condition as property, self-owned or otherwise, it seems he is vulnerable to being driven by the most brutal herder. What creature could master a debased pack of hounds selected and conditioned to brutality and cruelty? Only a master dog of complete ruthlessness; some atavistic throwback—some perpetual pattern-type, as Goethe might have said—that would drive his underdogs to the utmost cruelty and brutality. The unowned domestic dog, as exemplified here, becomes first a lonely and debased atom and then is mastered by the cruelest shepherd and so driven to destruction..."

Lindsay Lohan's mom says she's never met her boyfriend of 5 years
Pete Parker | Monday, February 11, 2019
Dina is totally in love
"YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME", he said, linking to our article on Friday of the celebrity mom, 56, who has been dating a man for five years and has never met him.
Nev Schulman may have someone new to help out.
The reality TV star is left in the CBB house with Kandi, Natalie, Tamar, Tom Green, Ricky Williams and Lolo Jones, following the departure of Anthony Scaramucci, Jonathan Bennett, Ryan Lochte, Joey Lawrence and Kato Kaelin. Like, every day. A lot. "I feel like I know him", she shared. According to Dina, they haven't met yet because he lives in San Francisco, where he takes care of his mother and apparently, he doesn't use FaceTime.
What's his angle? 'I've been talking to him for five years.
"YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME, " Schulman, 34, wrote on Twitter the following day, alongside a screenshot of a news story about Dina's mystery man, in an interaction highlighted by Comments by Celebs. When she overheard how Dina's supposed beau doesn't FaceTime, she couldn't believe it. "Lies!" He's real. I swear, it's insane. However, Lohan is convinced he is not only real but that she is going to marry him someday.
She added, "It's really, really true", noting, "I talk to his mom!" "I talk to his ma". Even then, Lohan insisted the relationship is "real" and "some guys just don't use iPhones". "I'll come with you, but he don't wanna meet me", she joked.
The MTV host rose to fame after co-directing and starring in the 2010 documentary film version of Catfish, in which he traveled across the country to meet a woman he'd fallen in love with online, only to discover she wasn't who she claimed to be. In the film, Schulman had an online romance with a woman through Facebook.
During Thursday's episode of Celebrity Big Brother, Dina Lohan revealed that although she's been talking to "a special someone" for five years, they've never actually met in real life or even FaceTimed.

About G44
Gallery 44 was founded in 1979 by a small group of artists in need of production facilities who joined together to share darkroom and studio space. Forming a collective was an important first step in making facilities affordable and in creating a supportive community of artists with common goals. In 1980, the collective began mounting exhibitions and in 1981 began offering photography workshops.
Gallery 44 moved from its original location on Niagara Street to Bathurst Street in 1986, where both the production and exhibition facilities were expanded to serve a growing membership. Due to a severe lack of photographic education in elementary and secondary schools, Gallery 44 began its Education in the Schools program in 1987. In 1994, Gallery 44 moved to 401 Richmond St. W. to improve the centre's exhibition and production facilities and to widen its audience through a more centralized location.
The main floor of our space currently includes the administrative office, main gallery and adjacent vitrines gallery that host our seven annual exhibitions and our Members' Gallery, which exclusively showcases the work of our members. Gallery 44's 2,673 square foot, accessible facilities are located in the basement of 401 and include darkrooms, a shooting studio, scanning lab, wide format digital printing, print finishing area, resource library, and the Production Gallery which highlights works produced in our facilities.
Throughout its history Gallery 44 has prioritized equitable access by breaking down barriers to the arts for artists, audiences and youth. We do so by programming outside of the downtown core, collaborating with numerous community partners both within and outside of our sector, supporting artistic experimentation and risk-taking and providing accessible public programs and production support to emerging practitioners, diverse artists and young people from across the GTA. Gallery 44's partners include: ImagineNATIVE, Images Festival, Scotiabank CONTACT Photography Festival, Toronto District School Board, OCAD University, Trinity Square Video, NIA Centre for the Arts, Tangled Art + Disability and many more.
While Gallery 44 continues to develop and evolve we have remained committed to our history as an artist-run centre, which in part relates to fostering collaborative decision-making and the sharing of leadership roles. Retaining the spirit of an artist-run centre, members, Board and staff work together to develop and implement programs that highlight unique artistic practices, engage a wide audience and increase the access to and understanding of image-based practices.
Gallery 44 supports over 400 artist members through affordable access to analogue and digital facilities and various professional development opportunities, including conceptual and technical workshops, portfolio reviews and mentorships. Gallery 44 continues to serve an important role in the larger arts community by supporting:
· emerging artists through such annual programs as Proof, OUTREACH, Darkroom Club, CameraLinks and CameraReach
· Canadian and international artists and curators through dynamic exhibitions and residencies
· diverse audiences through public programs such as talks, tours, discussions, screenings, writing groups and performances
· writers in every stage of their careers through our vital and prolific publishing program
