Neo-Geo — ігрова система, створена японською компанією SNK в 1989 році. Найбільше вона була відома як система для аркадних ігрових автоматів, а також випускалася як окрема ігрова приставка (console). Система для ігрових автоматів (MVS — Multi Video System) відрізнялася від приставки (AES — Advanced Entertainment System) наявністю слотів для установки до 6 ROM-картриджів одночасно. Приставка з'явилася в широкому продажі на рік пізніше (в 1990) і не мала такої популярності як ігровий автомат, через її високу вартість для кінцевого користувача. Ще пізніше (в 1994 році) була випущена версія приставки з CD-дисководом («Neo Geo CD»), яка також не отримала популярності.
Ігри, що випускалися під дану приставку, пропонували користувачам досить якісну 2D-графіку і високоякісний звуковий супровід.
Ігрова система базувалася на 16-бітному процесорі Motorola 68000 (12 МГц) (або його клонах) і 8-бітному Z80 (4 МГц), який використовувався як звуковий співпроцесор. Для створення звукових ефектів опціонально міг використовуватися 15-канальний звуковий чип Yamaha YM2610.

End of the line for MTA overtime abuse? Don't count on it
MTA execs used to beg for new work rules but stopped when Cuomo caved
Flickr/MTA
Stop the presses: Transit workers are exploiting the system to rack up huge amounts of overtime.
The revelation that a 33-year Long Island Rail Road track worker with a $54,989 base salary raked in $311,162 last year, outrageous as it was, came as no surprise. Every year veteran Metropolitan Transportation Authority employees cash in massively on overtime. Every year the abuse is flagged by salary-data hounds at the Empire Center for New York State Policy. Every year the media publishes the story. And every year the MTA pledges to act but does nothing. At the LIRR, overtime costs rose more than 50% in the past four years.
Patrick Foye, the new head of the sprawling transit agency, is the latest to take on the challenge. He ordered an audit of the past 12 months of MTA overtime, which grew by more than $100 million last year. Foye has been down this road before: As head of the Port Authority in 2011, he praised the release of data showing 66 agency police officers had made more than $200,000 in 11 months. "What you can measure, you can manage," Foye said at the time.
But it's dubious that Foye will be able to manage MTA overtime any better than his predecessors did. Much of the problem is rooted in the union contracts, which are rife with provisions that create overtime opportunities for workers and let seniority determine who gets dibs on overtime shifts. Some of the provisions date back decades and are carried over from one collective-bargaining agreement to the next.
It's easy to blame the unions, but the state is agreeing to these deals. And some MTA bosses don't bother to justify extra hours or track whether employees even work them.
Some overtime is necessary in any transit system—emergencies happen. And it is less expensive than adding staff, because new hires get benefits and figure out how to finagle overtime too.
But when a track worker can put in the equivalent of 16 hours a day for 365 days, as the 33-year LIRR veteran did, the system is broken.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who controls the MTA, blessed the deal reached during his first term and took credit for avoiding a work stoppage. He should demand the next one be written from scratch, with overtime minimized and rationally distributed among workers. Supervisors and managers, who oversee an average of just four hourly workers, should be held accountable for excesses.
Foye is a capable executive. But like any MTA head, he's constrained by politics. Agency execs used to beg editorial boards to support work-rule changes. They stopped when it ceased to be a priority for the governor.
Cuomo is finally pushing for reform, albeit without taking blame. He needs to work overtime to get something done.

Certain types of collie (for example Rough Collies, Smooth Collies, Shetland Sheepdogs and some strains of Border Collie and other breeds) have been bred for many generations as pets and for the sport of conformation showing, not as herding dogs. These types have proved to be highly trainable, gentle, loyal, and well suited as pets.
Their gentleness and devotion also make them quite compatible with children. They are often more suitable as companions than as watch dogs, though the individual personalities of these dogs vary.
The temperament of these breeds has featured in literature, film and popular television programmes. The novels of Albert Payson Terhune celebrated the temperament and companionship of collies and were very popular in the United States during the 1920s and 1930s.
More famously, the temperament and intelligence of the Rough Collie was exaggerated to mythic proportions in the character Lassie which has been the subject of many films, books and television shows from 1938 to the present.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Reportedly Bumped Into Adele at the Hubb Community Kitchen
by Andrea Park
Mark Metcalfe/Getty Images
Since adopting the Hubb Community Kitchen as one of her main philanthropic endeavors, Meghan Markle has made a habit of visiting the women at the center created by victims of the Greenfell Tower fire on a regular basis, and making a point of stopping by ahead of food-centric holidays. Almost exactly a month after making a pre-Thanksgiving visit, Meghan reportedly returned to the kitchen this week, with Prince Harry in tow, presumably to spread some holiday cheer, People reports. But the duke and duchess weren't the only ones bringing the star power to the Hubb on Thursday: Pop royalty Adele also dropped by, as seen in photos shared by some of the women who work there, per royals expert Omid Scobie.
Meghan and Harry's visit was a rather low-key one, with neither of them photographed either by paparazzi on their way into the kitchen, or for the official Kensington Palace Instagram account once inside. According to People, the trip marked Harry's first time inside the kitchen, though he did meet many of its members at a palace event celebrating Together, the cookbook they released with Meghan in September. As of November, the book has reportedly sold more than 40,000 copies in the U.K., and tens of thousands more internationally, raising upwards of $270,000. The proceeds were used to fund a total remodel of the kitchen, and have also allowed it to stay open every day of the week (the Hubb was previously only open two days a week), according to the Royal Foundation.
Adele, meanwhile, posed for several photos and selfies with the women at the community kitchen on Thursday, several of which were shared by the Hubb's Munira Mahmoud on Instagram. "Had pleasure cooking for Adele," Mahmoud captioned a photo of her and the Grammy winner. "2 days in a row wow.... What a blessing ... She beautiful kind and very Humble Lady."

A post shared by Munira Mahmoud (@muniraeats) on Dec 21, 2018 at 12:34am PST
Adele has been a persistent and vocal supporter of the survivors of the tragic 2017 Grenfell Tower fire—the community served by the Hubb community kitchen. Hours after the fire began, while it was still burning, the London native was seen attending a vigil in the area and comforting the survivors. A few days later, she paid a visit to the nearby Chelsea Fire Station for a "cup of tea and a cuddle" with the first responders who had gotten the fire under control, and in December, she joined the royals and other famous Brits like Carey Mulligan in attending a memorial service in honor of the victims of the fire.

In the years when Germany was divided, Charlottenburg was the home primarily for the Foundation's archaeological collections. Since 1996, with the addition of the Museum Berggruen, and later with the Sammlung Scharf-Gerstenberg, a museum district for High Modernist art was established. The Museum für Fotografie is also in Charlottenburg.
When the Foundation began work in 1961, various spaces, some of them leased, were available to it in the Charlottenburg District of West Berlin. The Nationalgalerie's collection was shown in the Orangerie of Schloss Charlottenburg (Charlottenburg Palace). The Museum für Vor- und Frühgeschichte (Museum of Prehistory and Early History) found its place in the Langhansbau, which was also part of the palace. Until it was moved to Dahlem 1964, the Sculpture Gallery was also there. In the Knobelsdorff wing of the palace, the Kunstgewerbemuseum (Museum of Decorative Arts) opened in 1963. Beginning in 1986, that wing also housed the Nationalgalerie's Galerie der Romantik (Gallery of Romanticism).
In the immediate vicinity of Schloss Charlottenburg, two barracks designed by Friedrich August Stüler were available for the Foundation to use. In 1960 the Antikensammlung (Collection of Classical Antiquities) moved into the west Stülerbau. In 1967 the Ägyptisches Museum (Egyptian Museum) opened in the east Stülerbau. A little more than ten years later, the latter was expanded to include the Marstallgebäude. The Landwehrkasino on Jebensstrasse, the present location of the Museum für Fotografie housed the Kunstbibliothek (Art Library) as well as storage and workshops for several museums.
In 1994 the Kunstgewerbemuseum and the Kunstbibliothek moved to new buildings at the Kulturforum. The Nationalgalerie had already moved to the Mies building in 1968. After German reunification in 1990, the museum district in Charlottenburg changed even more. The Galerie der Romantik and the archaeological collections returned to the Museumsinsel (Museum Island). The Antikensammlung housed in the west Stülerbau moved to the Museumsinsel in 1995. The Ägyptisches Museum moved from the east Stülerbau to the Museumsinsel in 2005, with only the Gate of Kalabsha remaining in Charlottenburg, until the fourth wing of the Pergamonmuseum has been built. Subsequently, both buildings were reinstalled with the Museum Berggruen and the Sammlung Scharf-Gerstenberg (Scharf-Gerstenberg Collection).
The former art dealer and collector Heinz Berggruen initially entrusted his collection of masterpieces of High Modernism to the Foundation as a loan. Under the title "Picasso and His Time", the collection, which included high-quality works by Picasso, Klee, and Matisse, was shown in the west Stülerbau from 1996 onward. In 2000 the Foundation acquired the outstanding private collection and has presented it ever since at the Museum Berggruen of the Nationalgalerie.
In 2013, following a period of renovation, the museum was reopened. Based on plans by the architectural firm Kuehn Malvezzi, it was expanded to include the neighboring Kommandantenhaus, in order to provide adequate space for the paintings and loans of the Berggruen family. The two buildings are linked by a glass corridor. A newly designed garden on the courtyard side supplements the presentation with sculptures loaned by the Berggruen family.
The east Stülerbau now houses the Sammlung Scharf-Gerstenberg, with masterpieces by the Surrealists and their precursors. The Stülerbau and the associated Marstall were converted based on plans by the architectural firm of Sunder-Plassmann. Since 2008 the Foundation has been showing around 250 paintings, sculptures, and works on paper under the name "Surreal Worlds". This private collection is on loan to the Nationalgalerie of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin (National Museums in Berlin).
The Sammlung Fotografie der Kunstbibliothek (Art Library – Collection of Photography) of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin has its domicile on Jebensstrasse. Together with the Helmut-Newton-Stiftung (Helmut Newton Foundation), it presents its extensive holdings of photography in all forms dating from the nineteenth to the twenty-first century. In 2010 the Kaisersaal (Emperors' Hall) of the Museum für Fotografie was reopened following a conversion by the firm Kahlfeldt Architekten.
It is not just museums open to the public that the Foundation has in Charlottenburg. The Gipsformerei (Replica Workshop) of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin has had its own building there since 1891. It produces high-quality replicas of the holdings of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin and of other museums, which are available for purchase. Interested parties can view models in the sales room and choose from a catalog of nearly seven thousand replicas.
The Rathgen-Forschungslabor (Rathgen Research Laboratory) of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin is the institute specializing in issues of conservation. It was founded in 1975, modeled on the chemical laboratory that was set up in the Königliche Museen zu Berlin in 1888. In 1980, it moved into a building on Schlossstrasse right next to the west Stülerbau.


Sedano's, Kissimmee team to feed the needy..
Thanks to the renewed efforts of a local grocery retailer and its partnership with Kissimmee city staff, about 100 families will be able to have a nice Thanksgiving dinner next week.
Sedano's, like it did last year, provided families identified by the city as the most needy with all the fixings, including 12 to 14-pound turkeys, for a full holiday meal Monday at Kissimmee City Hall. City commissioners helped distribute the meals with the help of Sedano's staff, who made sure to bring the turkeys a little later than last year to ensure they wouldn't thaw in the oddly-humid November warmth late Monday morning.

Pre-Revolution Timeline - The 1600s
They came, in colonies settled around Jamestown, with the pilgrims at Plymouth Rock in the Massachusetts Bay, and they began what we would term the America of today. There would be treaties with the Indian nations and battles amongst warring tribes. There would be contests of wills between colonies funded and founded by British, Spanish, and French concerns. But this would be the century that began true settlement, for all its wonder and hardship and harbinger of a nation that would come.

ABH Travel Tip
You can visit much of the Pre-Revolution history of the United States throughout the many trails and historic sites of the nation. And don't miss out on the Native American history throughout Florida or other regions. The history of the nation and North America comes from the culture of the many tribes that made up the mosaic of human culture in each state. They were here before the majority of us, after all, and their history is an amazing collection of wonder, beauty, and dedication to the land that sits beneath us.

June 20, 1675 - Beginning of King Philip's War in New England with Metacom Indian forces attacking colonial settlements due to encroachment on the land. Considered the costliest war for European Settlements in relation to population with Indian success during first year halted later when their alliances fell apart. Twelve towns destroyed.
He wasn't really a King, although prior to the start of his war against English colonists in New England, Metacomet, the Wampanoag chief whose father was friendly with the Mayflower pilgrims, took the name as tribute. However, when he became chief in 1662 of the Pokanoket (a tribe within the Wampanoag Confederacy), there was a change of mind. Some of that initial change was prompted by the idea that his brother, the current chief, who died of an illness after being arrested and released by the English, had been poisoned. It is not known whether that was true. Tensions increased during his first ten years as chief. A peace treaty engaged in 1671 caused colonists to think the Indians should give up their guns; not all agreed.
Friendly relations with the Confederacy and Plymouth Colony had been good during his father's and brother's reign, but the distrust by King Philip due to the above and the continuing expansion of the colony and English citizens, was to be no longer tolerated. By this time, there were one hundred and ten towns in New England with eighty thousand residents, including Plymouth and the Massachusetts Bay Colony, still separate until 1691. The Indian tribes were losing ground; estimates of their population had dwindled to between ten and twenty thousand. Of this number, it is thought that there were only one thousand Wampanoags left.
Rumors began to float that King Philip wanted to start a war. He was brought to court, but with no proof, was dismissed. When an Indian convert who was a mediator between the sides was murdered, three Wampanoags were hanged for that act in Plymouth Colony on June 8, 1675. There would be retaliation for that.
Timeline of King Philip's War
June 20, 1675 - Band of Pokanokets attack settlements outside Plymouth Colony town of Swansea. Within five days, they had destroyed the town and killed several citizens.
Account in the History of King Philip's War, Mather - "June. 24. (Midsummer-day) was appointed and attended as a day of solemn Humiliation throughout that Colony, by fasting and prayer, to intreat the Lord to give success to the present expedition respecting the Enemy. At the conclusion of that day of Humiliation, as soon as ever the people in Swanzy were come from the place where they had been praying together, the Indians discharged a volly of shot whereby they killed one man & wounded others. Two men were sent to call a Surgeon for the relief of the wounded, but the Indians killed them by the way: and in another part of the town six men were killed, so that there were nine english men murthered this day."
June 28, 1675 - Colonists destroy the Wampanoag town of Mount Hope (Bristol, Rhode Island) in retaliation.
July 8, 1675 - King Philip, now with allies in the Podunk and Nipmuck tribes, attack Middleborough and Dartmouth. Six days later, they attacked Mendon.

October 5, 1675 - Attack on Springfield causing burning of almost all of town buildings, is eventually thwarted by alerted militia of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
Account in the History of King Philip's War, Mather - "In the mean while, when the English had any ingagement with the Indians, wounded Indians came home to the Narragansets, especially after the fight at Hatfield, Octob. 19th. about fourty wounded men were seen crossing the woods towards the Narragansets : also some (at least two Indians) from amongst themselves, came to the English, and told them that the Narra gansets were resolved (if they could) to destroy the English : but they were loth to begin to fall upon them before winter, but in the Spring when they should have the leaves of trees and Swamps to befriend them, they would doe it : wherefore it was judged necessary to send out Forces against them, and preparations were made accordingly."
November 2, 1675 - Great Swamp fight occurs when Plymouth Colony Governor Josiah Winslow attacks Narragansett tribe (neutral to this point although assisting Wampanoags) in several towns, driving them into a large fort (South Kingston, Rhode Island) in a frozen swamp. Attack against fort on December 19, 1675 with one thousand men. Estimated casualties six hundred Narragansett with seventy colonists killed and one hundred and fifty wounded.
December 1675 - Metacomet, King Philip, retreats into New York, enraging traditional rival, the Mohawk, who would side with the colonists against King Philip, causing a return back to New England.

June 12, 1676 - Colonists defeat an attack against Hadley with Mohegan allies, driving attackers north into New Hampshire.
Account in the History of King Philip's War, Mather - "June 12. The Enemy assaulted Hadly, in the morning, Sun an hour high, three Souldiers going out of the Town without their Arms, were disswaded therefrom by a Serjeant, who stood at the Gate, but they alleadging that they intended not to go far, were suffered to pass, within a while the Serjeant apprehended, that he heard some men running ; and looking over the Fortification, he saw twenty Indians pursuing those three men, who were so terrified, that they could not cry out ; two of them were at last killed, and the other so mortally wounded, as that he lived not above two or three dayes ; wherefore the Serjeant gave the Alarme. God in great mercy to those Western Plantations had so ordered by his providence, as that Connecticut Army was come thither before this onset from the enemy. Besides English, there were near upon two hundred Indians in Hadley, who came to fight with and for the English, against the common enemy, who was quickly driven off at the South end of the Town ; whilst our men were pursuing of them there, on a sudden a great Swarm of Indians issued out of the bushes, and made their main assault at the North end of the Town, they fired a Barn which was without the Fortifications, and went into an house, where the inhabitants discharged a great Gun upon them, whereupon about fifty Indians were seen running out of the house in great haste, being terribly frighted with the Report and slaughter made amongst them by the great Gun."
August 12, 1676 - Plymouth colony troops and allies under Captain Benjamin Church and Captain Josiah Standish track King Philip, Metacomet, and kill the chief at Mount Hope. Pocasset chief Anawan captured and killed, a main captain to Metacomet, on August 28, 1676, effectively ending King Philip's War.
Buy Chronology
Casualties of the war included one thousand colonists and three thousand Indian warriors and tribe members of the Wampanoags, Nipmucks, Podunks, Narragansetts, and Nashaway. In many cases, this effectively eliminated those tribes as organized bands. Many of the remaining tribe members, up to one thousand, were sold into slavery and sent to the Caribbean. Other members who escaped, joined tribes to the west and north. By the end of King Philip's War, the population of the New England tribes is estimated to have been reduced by 40-80 percent. In relation to the proportion of the population, King Philip's War is the deadliest war in American history.
For the colonists, the effect of the war was devastation to many towns in southern New England, including the burning of Providence. For some, the experience spawned literature. Mary Rolandson, captured for eleven days, wrote the book, "The Sovereignty and Goodness of God: Being a Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson," in 1682, which sold out its four printings.
Quotes, Mary Rowlandson - "On the tenth of February 1675, came the Indians with great numbers upon Lancaster: their first coming was about sunrising; hearing the noise of some guns, we looked out; several houses were burning, and the smoke ascending to heaven. There were five persons taken in one house; the father, and the mother and a sucking child, they knocked on the head; the other two they took and carried away alive ..."
... I had often before this said that if the Indians should come, I should choose rather to be killed by them than taken alive, but when it came to the trial my mind changed; their glittering weapons so daunted my spirit, that I chose rather to go along with those (as I may say) ravenous beasts, than that moment to end my days; and that I may the better declare what happened to me during that grievous captivity, I shall particularly speak of the several removes we had up and down the wilderness."

Can Japan just be blockaded into submission?
Is it possible to cause Japan to submit and go back to status quo ante 1941 by defeating the Navy at Midway, and force Japan give back all their post Pearl Harbor conquests, and then after Midway sinking another major part of it in another major decisive daylight battle like the Philippines Sea, and then just blockade Japan into starvation through submarines alone, without doing any of those costly island invasions?
What if US and ABDA just demanded Japan give back Malaya, the Philippines, and the Dutch East Indies, and everything post Dec. 1941 in return for ending unrestricted submarine warfare, and not the Combined Fleet blown out of the water, would Japan be willing to take that deal?
Not a chance. Japan was unwilling to surrender after losing the sea battles you cited, some of their defensive islands and the Philippines.
Japans initial plan was to loose a short war. But after the early success the leadership became infected with victory disease and genuinely thought they could win the fight.
Japan was an unapologetic aggressor that needed to be put back in its box.
The Japanese were trying to take over the Pacific, creating its "Greater Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere" which actually only benefited Japanese of the Yamato race, who were a rather massively racist people who greatly looked down on other Asian races as inferior. The US didn't even announce unconditional surrender terms until July 1945, one month before the war ended. Previously, Japan made absolutely no meaningful or realistic gestures to end the war, period. Even among recorded meetings of the leadership of the Japanese Empire (The Big Six and the Emperor) they never once actually contemplated surrender of any kind until after the second atomic bomb was dropped, and even then half the body wanted a limited surrender that would have ended the war with Japan running their own war crime trials (lol), no occupation, no disarmament, and the emperor (who himself was a war criminal) being fully protected.
The submarine campaign, the naval blockade, and the strategic bombing of Japan all required advanced bases in the Marianas and Palaus, and probably the Ryukyus and Bonins to be totally effective.
As "Aggie" says, it is nonsense (for which there is absolutely no evidence of any kind) to contend that the poor, helpless Japanese militarists were begging to surrender; but that the wicked, racist Americans were intent on revenge, or dominance, or on scaring the Soviets, or proving their technology, and refused to listen or compromise. There was no meaningful offer of compromise. Nor is it likely that anybody would want to compromise with a government that had attacked it without a declaration of war, that had been waging a brutal war in China since 1937, and that had mistreated or murdered prisoners of war among other enormities.
So basically just giving them a large part of Mainland China, Taiwan, Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos, all of which they had occupied before December 1941? What about the Japanese forces fighting In China - do they have to stop or are we just stopping the attacks on the American/Western forces?
The Japanese in WW2 weren't that keen on surrender you know. What happens if they don't surrender? How many women and children - not to mention Western prisoners of war - are you willing to starve to death?
Not to mention Manchuria, the Kuriles the Mandates (Marshals & Carolines) and Marianas.
How does Japan develop over the last 80 years without Pearl Harbor and war with the US?


Why Is Champagne Associated With Balloon Flight?
To honor a long-lived ballooning tradition whilst surrounded by the beauty of nature, a glass of champagne is shared with guests, and who doesn't love a glass of bubbly?
The first Champagne was created in France, although completely by accident, champagne was known as the devil's wine because the bottles would explode or the corks would pop because of all the pressure in the bottles due to fermentation only taking place once the wines were bottled.
Some people use the term champagne when they are, in fact, drinking sparkling wine, but in many countries it is illegal to say a product is champagne unless it comes from the region in France and has been produced under the rules mentioned above. The grapes used to make Champagne are black Pinot noir and Pinot Meunier but also white Chardonnay.
In the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, champagne was associated with royalty. The leading manufacturers would advertise and market their products to appeal to nobility and royalty, but it made champagne popular among the middle class.
A French nobleman set off one day with a friend or two for a flight near Paris, when they came down, they were set upon by an angry mob with pitchforks, who thought this apparition from the skies was the devil, but the boys had traditional sparkling refreshments tucked away in their basket. They opened it to prove they were from the local region and truly belonged to mother earth and thus began the tradition of the bottle of sparkling refreshments after a flight.
Our balloon flights depart from Glenburn Lodge in the Cradle of Humankind (and as a new development, from Wine lands in Stellenbosch), and the views are like nothing you've experienced before. (Not alien but they are spectacular! Some of the best mother earth has to offer!) Upon landing, you can enjoy a glass of traditional sparkling refreshment with us, the French custom we practise after every flight.
Air to Air Africa offers private as well as corporate flights for up to 16 people. Dom Perignon famously said: "Come quickly, I am tasting the stars!" and with this in mind, we want to invite you to come quickly and experience our champagne balloon flight.
You will not see any stars on your flight, but with our hot air ballooning SA, you will certainly taste them afterwards! Contact us for more information, if you have any questions or if you would like to book your champagne balloon flight.

Assuming the £13tn mountain of assets earned an average 3% a year for its owners, and governments were able to tax that income at 30%, it would generate a bumper £121bn in revenues – more than rich countries spend on aid to the developing world each year.

Three months later, Shaw won his first strongman event. Within a year, he had turned pro. He has since deadlifted more than a thousand pounds and pressed a nearly quarter-ton log above his head. He has harnessed himself to fire engines, Mack trucks, and a Lockheed C-130 transport plane and dragged them hundreds of yards. In 2011, he became the only man ever to win the sport's two premier competitions in the same year. He has become, by some measures, the strongest man in history.

In the real document i have a picture with many variable in it. To make it clear i want to explain them in some kind of list below the picture. I'd like to have this list centered.
Many thanks in advance

A: Your  table is perfectly centred under the figure if you use the correct parameters, as the first code below shows. However I suggest another approach: using the measuredfigure environment from package threeparttable your explanations will have the exact width of the figure. Also, I think a description environment, customised through enumitem will produce a better solution:

Brrrr! It's been a chilly start to fall here in Northern Michigan! It's feeling a lot more like Thanksgiving than Halloween! With the weather being more chilly than usual I dug out our winter clothes and started to pack away our summer clothes, which felt very premature. I've done a pretty good job over the last year or two to really pare down my closet and only purchase and pull in pieces that can be mixed and matched with other items or used to create a layered look.
Last fall and winter I did a blog post series on creating a capsule wardrobe and I thought it went over pretty darn well. Doing the capsule wardrobe definitely set me up for success this fall and as I shuffled through fall and winter clothing things felt a bit more cohesive than they have in the past. I have a really hard time keeping my closet to only "minimal" items (for instance, I tried a 10×10 challenge a while back – and it was super tough) but I can definitely get behind a more carefully curated closet – which is what I've been going for these days. Later in the month, I'll be doing a 10×10 challenge with Amanda Richards from Delightfully Impatient.
If you feel like joining me in trying out the Capsule Wardrobe again this fall – get started by visiting this blog post series.
It shouldn't be a surprise that my closet has a handful of striped shirts and tops. I especially loved this blouse from Covington & Co. It'll be a staple layering piece for fall and winter! It's not as traditional as your black and white stripes (which is what I typically go for) I love the gold stripes and the warmth it adds to a blazer or a jacket!

I sat in class, the clock slowly ticking away as I doodled the Winter Solider. The teacher was rambling about history, blah, blah, blah, war, blah, blah, blah. Class was taking FOREVER! I finished drawing hearts around my picture, when suddenly, my teacher swiped my paper from my hands. She quizzically looked at it and showed it to the class.

Class was taking FOREVER! I finished drawing hearts around my picture, when suddenly, my teacher swiped my paper from my hands. She quizzically looked at it and showed it to the class.
I groaned inward. This day could not get any worse, oh wait, of course it can, that's my life! People laughed at me and started whispering. I just had to have an obsession with superheroes.
My face was red with embarrassment. Then someone barged into the classroom holding a semi-automatic rifle, and let's just say it was beautiful.
The people in my class screamed and ran to a corner of the room. "You." The man said. I looked behind me. He must be talking about Casey.
Bye Casey! Then everyone in the class shoved me toward him. "Take her! Just don't kill us!" They said. I looked at my classmates as the guy grabbed me. I have a wonderful class.
I hope this guy brought friends because my class needs to be punished. "Don't worry," He whispered. "You're safe with me." Ha, man this guy is dumb. Of course I'm safe with a killer.
I think this guy meant safe in heaven once he kills me. He dragged me down the hall, and I decided to take those moments to think about my life.
I thought about my days in prison, the long hours of sitting in a desk, horrible teachers destroying my brain, and my obnoxious cell mates.
I will die with everyone knowing about my crazy obsession with superheroes. "GET IN THE CAR!" He screamed. "I told you five times!" I looked at his face for the first time.
"YOU ARE FREAKING GORGEOUS!" I say with too much excitement. He stared at me and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Can you just get in the car please?" "Sure thing Mr. Gorgeous.
" I said getting in the car. He got in the driver's side and tossed the gun on my lap. "Please use this responsibly." "Uh, you're talking to me." I asked.
"Who else would I be talking to?" He growled. "Alright, sorry grumpy pants. I'm the one getting kidnapped here." I said as a bullet whizzed past my face, cracking the window.
The guy cursed and pressed harder on the gas. I heard bullets hitting the car. He groaned, took out his pistol, and fired away. After a few shots, he sat back down and continued driving.
"Do you have a driver's license?" I asked. He tossed me his wallet and I opened it. I looked at it and gasped. "You're Bucky?" I screamed like a fan girl.
"Technically, I'm James Buchanan Barnes, but yes, I'm Bucky." He said swerving chaotically.

With this glossy magnetic whiteboard sheet (the backside is magnetic), you can turn an iron surface into a whiteboard in no time. Just cut the sheet to the desired size and attach it to an iron (ferromagnetic) surface, a steel plate or a metal frame for instance. Now you can write on it with dry erase markers and wipe it dry. You cannot print on the whiteboard sheet though.
When you are done using it, you can just remove the whiteboard sheet, roll it up or apply it up somewhere else. Ideal for use in the office or classroom, booth or store construction.
The magnetic whiteboard sheet is not suitable as a magnetic base for magnets! The magnets would even demagnetise the sheets. A good base for magnets are our ferro-magnetic whiteboard sheet.


While Santa Clara County residents are voting on whether to recall or retain a judge, San Mateo County voters must vote whether to re-elect another judge or replace him.
Judge Gerald Buchwald, who has been on the bench since being appointed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger in April 2005, is facing a challenge from San Carlos lawyer Richard Wilson.
Wilson, 64, retired last July as senior counsel for the UC system, where he oversaw the claims and lawsuits from the university's medical departments and hospitals.
Wilson said that after he retired, he began considering running for a judgeship. Once deciding to do so, Wilson researched the 10 judges up for re-election this year and also went to the courthouse to observe them.
Wilson said he decided to run against Buchwald because he has never been challenged in an election, and is among the longest serving judges up for election this year.
Wilson has lived in San Carlos for the past 30 years. He and his wife, also a lawyer, raised their son and daughter in the city.
If elected, Wilson said he will use his experience from his position at the UC system to help manage and oversee the courts in a more efficient manner.
But to Wilson, being efficient does not mean being nonchalant about cases — Wilson says he is diligent and careful, and will carry that over to the bench.
Wilson said he hopes that by being diligent and not just following whatever recommendation is put in front of him, it will lead to fewer claims of bias in the court system, or at least in his court.
Buchwald is known among lawyers to be quite loquacious, and that is because he likes to tell the parties in a case why he is ruling in a particular manner.
"You're entitled to reasons. If you are there and have a case, the court ought to give reasons why it's deciding one way or another," Buchwald said.
Buchwald's penchant to explain his rulings raised some eyebrows when he issued his controversial 2013 ruling in favor of billionaire Vinod Kholsla in the Martins Beach access case. Buchwald said the beach was subject to the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which ended the Mexican-American War and required the United States to recognize Mexican land grants. Buchwald said the beach had been in private hands long before laws were passed to require public access to the coast.
Buchwald said in deciding the case he had to put his personal opinions aside and make a ruling based on the law. He pointed out in an interview that he was in his younger years an active climber and fly fisherman, as well as a former Sierra Club member (but canceled his membership when he was appointed to the bench).
Prior to becoming judge, Buchwald, a Hillsborough resident, was a partner at Redwood City firm Robers, Majecki, Kohn and Bentley. Buchwald said if a lawyer from that firm, or any other firm he worked with prior to his appointment, comes before him in a hearing, he will disclose that to the court.
Buchwald said he can be a bit of a maverick in his rulings, but always tries to balance his rulings between statute and common law, where he's looking for practical decisions so rulings could be applied to the real world.
Buchwald said he wanted to be a lawyer ever since seeing the 1960 movie "Inherit the Wind," which depicts the true life story of a Tennessee teacher being prosecuted for teaching evolution in class.
After graduating from Northwestern University law school, he went into private practice, primarily practicing civil law.
In 1998, at the end of then-Gov. Pete Wilson's term, he applied to become judge. He almost got the judgeship then — only to lose out to Quentin Kopp, who retired from the bench in 2004. Buchwald was appointed in 2005.
It's good to see somebody wanting to shake up the legal establishment with a challenge like this. Even if Wilson doesn't win, it will keep the judges on their toes. Good on him.


I know what you're thinking. It's unconventional to want a man nine years older than you. It's inconvenient to crush on your dearest friend's older brother. It's silly to pine after a man for six years. It's cliché to lust after a celebrity. It's pathetic to fall in love with a man who barely knows you exist. I know what you're thinking because I've thought it all, too. And yet that hasn't stopped me from wanting Blake Campbell. Charming, gorgeous, brilliant, kind, selfless – Blake is everything I've ever wanted, but he doesn't see me that way. In fact, he hardly noticed me until one night. Traumatic events brought us together for the first time, but then he tossed me aside. I know it's irrational, but I wanted him up until the moment he left me lying there alone. When his eyes finally open and he finds out I've left, will it be too late?
Prologue Some people trip over a crack in the sidewalk and meet the love of their life. Some people are walking down the street, lost in a text message when they literally stumble into their destiny. Others don't have romance on their radar when they fall off the deep end and into the relationship that makes them whole. In other words, love finds them and not the other way around. I've never been one of those people. Romantic. Dreamer. Idealist. I've been called them all. Those nicknames never bothered me because I knew all the way to the marrow of my bones that the love of my own life was not too far away. In my mind, the scenario was complete. Our eyes would meet across a crowded room. No, that's not right. Let's take it from the top. He'd become aware of me first, unable to wrench his eyes away from my glossy back waves (thank you Italian heritage and superb genetics). They would tumble around my shoulders elegantly and I'd be wearing an outfit that elongates my short legs (stubs, as my cousins called them. Rude.). In my mind, the moment I meet him is flawless. Reality had a different idea. Because when I found the man I knew I was destined to be with me, he hardly noticed me. Every time after, he saw me as nothing more than a friend to his sister. Most times we interacted he scarcely paid attention to me, if only to provide pleasantries. Despite all that, my gut keeps telling me that I'm meant to be with him. I'm not giving up. No matter what.

Teeth are one of the most important parts of one's body. They serve the most vital purpose of chewing our food into smaller particles so that they can easily be absorbed but along with that a beautiful smile is equally important. A nice smile tells a lot as it is one of the most attractive features of any human being. So let's look at a few ways of how you can have awesome teeth.
There are a lot of foods that cause yellowing of teeth. Things like tea, coffee. Now it may be difficult to completely cut these foods off as most of do need our regular dose of caffeine but what you can do is to limit it. Try to consume less. If you do consume it often try to brush your teeth or at least use a mouthwash right afterwards.
No matter how much you try to keep your teeth clean the bacteria find a way to deposit in different areas of your teeth leading to a lot of plaque formation. This can later on lead to cavity formation and causing a lot of problems. There are a lot of after hours dental care that can take care of this issue at an early stage to prevent problems in the future.
The tongue is a part which holds a lot of bacteria. A lot of people tend to forget that the tongue has got papillae which are very tiny protruding which help to taste the food. But what happens is that some residual food particles tend to stay back. This tends further invites bacteria. It's always important to clean the tongue thoroughly to keep the nasty microorganisms away.
This has been said so many times in many articles, magazines and books of dental health but no one really takes this seriously. People tend to forget that teeth do have grooves. They also have tiny spaces between them which the toothbrush can't reach. That's why the floss. It is a bit annoying at first but as time proceeds it becomes second nature. In other words practice flossing until you can do it with your eyes closed.
Make sure that you have a routine with your brushing. It should be the first thing you do once you get out of bed and the last thing before you go to sleep. Also learn to brush with proper technique. Don't just brush side to side. Use semi-circular motions and also clean the teeth from inside with sweeping movements from down to up. This ensures that you are cleaning all the remaining debris out of the teeth to be washed away. Along with this also make sure you have the right toothbrush. The best toothbrush is a soft one where the bristles are just right to get the cleaning done and not damage the gums.


The District of Columbia Public Schools celebrated its annual test scores this week, touting "historic high" results citywide. The score report indicates a drop of less than two percentage points in the achievement gap between African American and White students: In math, 40% of African-American students scored proficient or better, while 91% of White students did; in reading, the percentages proficient were 38.6% of African-American students compared to 92.1% of white students. Percentages for Free and Reduced Meal students nearly match those of African-Americans.

No longer are TFA corps members only filling spots that would otherwise go to long-term subs. In some districts TFAers are replacing veteran teachers who have been let go. Other districts, like the one I used to teach in, appear to cycle through corps members every two years, with high turnover among TFA teachers who are in turn replaced by a fresh slate of bushy-tailed, ill-trained corps members.

In addition to the DCPS report, here is DC's "state" report from DC's Office of State Superintendent of Education, which includes charters and DCPS. More from Education Week.
When reading reports on the DC-CAS, be careful to read the actual numbers and not rely on DCPS graphics. For example, page 5 of the DCPS presentation on the DC-CAS scores displays composition and science scores. The two bar graphs present the growth percentage from 2012 to 2013 in proportion to the scores. But the reading and math scores, on page 4, are presented in seriously misleading fashion.
Page 4, with reading and math results for 2012 and 2013, declares that "results demonstrate that we can achieve our goals." The graphic does give the appearance of great progress, displaying "47.4%" as a bar more than twice the height of "43.5%." This seems to suggest that reading scores showed a growth rate of more than 100% over the previous year. The math bar graph gives the appearance of about 60% growth. In fact, of course, as the numbers actually who, growth was closer to 8% over 2012 scores.
Be sure to read this year's report in conjunction with more serious analyses of DC-CAS scores since 2007. For example: DC Fiscal Policy Institute analysis and DC Action for Children's Third Grade Brief. In addition, please keep in mind the many questions about the utility of these measures and how these tests feed the school-to-prison pipeline.


Cream Cups (Platystemon californicus). Upright herbaceous annual. This is an attractive California native. It will grow nicely along a roadway or driveway edge or in a dry border. It does need to be protected from rabbits.
Location: Plant in partial shade or full sun.
Water: Let the winter rains take over.
End of season care: Collect seeds after they ripen.
PROPAGATION: Cream Cups may be started from seed in late fall. Broadcast or place seed where the plant is to grow. Water after seeding. It should reseed itself.
SOURCES: Specialty mail order sources or collected locally.
California Poppy (Eschscholzia californica) Perennial; annual in colder winters. Blooms close at night. Plants fade and turn dry after they go to seed. Plant in drifts in cultivated areas. Does well when naturalized in dry areas. Drought resistant, however it blooms better with some summer water.
Plant developers have developed some garden forms that are showy in borders. Look for "Sunset Strain", "Silk Strain", " Mission Bells", or "Ballerina". These are not quite as drought tolerant as the species.
Water: Let soil dry a bit, then provide deep watering.
PROPAGATION: California poppy may be started from seed in late fall. Broadcast or place seed where the plant is to grow. Water after seeding. It should reseed itself.
SOURCES: Anyplace seeds may be sold.
Checker flower(Sidalcea malvaflora) is an upright herbaceous annual. This is a Descanso native and grows along road banks in many locations. Look for it in the spring along Boulder Creek road, or along Highway 79 going to Julian. It will grow nicely along a roadway or driveway edge or in a dry border.
PROPAGATION: Checker Flower may be started from seed in late fall. Broadcast or place seed where the plant is to grow. Water after seeding. It should reseed itself.
PROPAGATION: California Fuchsia is not easy to start from seed although it is available from some sources. Plant purchased or homegrown four-inch containers in the early summer or after our hot summer season. It grows into a large, spreading plant, and the tips root themselves into loamy soils. It is difficult to start from cuttings.
SOURCES: Specialty mail order sources for native plant seeds.


The intent of Estate Planning is to preserve and enhance the value of a person's estate, and to avoid adverse consequences for intended beneficiaries. It is therefore important that planning of a person's estate be properly addressed.
In the 21st century a Will is just one part of the process of documenting, implementing and achieving Estate Planning objectives.
Crucial estate planning decisions are now often made in the choice of financial products such as superannuation and insurance, and any ownership structures chosen for business and investment assets, the protection of assets and the minimisation of tax. Special care is required for blended families.
Planning to appoint someone to manage your assets (an attorney) and make health and lifestyle decisions (an enduring guardian) for you in the event that you are unable to make such decisions due to accident or illness is very very important. The consequences of failing to plan for such unforseen events can be disastrous.
Estate planning needs to be compatible with a person's wealth accumulation, asset protection, retirement, care, business and business succession plans. You should have in place a regularly reviewed will, an enduring power of attorney, an appointment or an enduring guardian all with back up plans and consideration should be given to preparing an advanced care directive.
We have been assisting clients to formulate their plans for more than 50 years. We have strong relationships with local accounting and financial planning firms. We keep up to date with the latest strategies.
Family Provision – representing eligible persons who have been left out of a will or who are disappointed with the provision made for them in a will.
There are often tax implications relating to Estates. For example, there is a potential in certain circumstances for Capital Gains Tax to be payable on the sale of a Deceased home, if it is not sold within two years of death.
NSW Parliament has recently made amendments to the Succession Act which significantly impact on the estate of a person who died without a will. It is now more important than ever to obtain expert advice when planning a will.
A Power of Attorney is a document you can sign to appoint another person/s (called your attorney) to act for you in relation to financial matters. The document states what the attorney is authorised to do and a time or event when the attorney authority commences. An enduring power of attorney must be made when you are of sound mind. It is too late to appoint an attorney after you have lost the capacity to manage your own affairs. An attorney cannot make health or lifestyle decisions for you.
An enduring guardian is a person/s you appoint at a time when you have capacity, to make personal, health or lifestyle decisions on your behalf should you lose the capacity to make them for yourself. You can choose what decision making functions you want your enduring guardian/s to have and give directions to your guardian/s to follow when making decisions for you.
Tonkin Drysdale Partners aims to service our clients so well that we build a life long relationship and recommend us to their children and friends.
We're proud to have served the local community for many generations and hope to do so for many more to come.

Home Health Care Murphy: N.J. part of request for $100B from feds; 155 new coronavirus...
Murphy: N.J. part of request for $100B from feds; 155 new coronavirus cases announced
Gov. Phil Murphy announced Friday that New Jersey and neighboring states New York, Pennsylvania and Connecticut are asking the federal government for at least $100 billion in immediate relief aid to fight the coronavirus outbreak.
"We are at the front line of the workers who are going through hell," Murphy said during the briefing.
"We're going to need a bigger boat. We're going to need a lot more cash to keep doing what we're doing."
Murphy also said the state likely will tighten restrictions on social distancing — perhaps as early as Saturday. The new rules, Murphy said, could go into effect Saturday night.
It's unclear what the new rules will be. But, on Friday, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced he is ordering all workers in non-essential businesses to stay home, starting Sunday.
Murphy also updated the latest numbers of confirmed COVID-19 cases. There were 155 announced Friday, bringing the state total to 890. There also were two more deaths, bringing the state total to 11.
Murphy said the 155 number is light; he expects to hear more by end of the day. Murphy said he expects the numbers to go up as more testing takes place.
"The numbers will go into the many thousands," he said. "But that is not a bad thing. The more information we have, the better we will be able to respond to this crisis."
That started Friday. Murphy announced the Federal Emergency Management Agency testing site in Bergen County took 600 samples Friday — and closed at noon when it reached capacity. Murphy said site will reopen on Saturday and Sunday. The site will be able to handle 350 more tests on both days.
Murphy also said the FEMA site at PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel will open Monday.
The four Democratic governors — whose states collectively represent 16% of the U.S. economy — made the request in a letter issued to President Donald Trump, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy.
In the letter, Murphy, Cuomo, Lamont and Wolf wrote:
"We owe an enormous debt to the relief efforts and resources that our federal partners have already provided. But our challenges are expanding daily and just beginning. Our states have all stepped up to take unprecedented action to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and do all we can to flatten the curve. We implore you to consider the devastating impact these efforts will have on our states — and millions of our residents — both in the immediate term and the months to come."
