Quincy Market – Introducing Angela to Red!
by Robert Gillis
Published in the Foxboro Reporter, 2/1997 and the Boston City Paper 10/2006
Ciao and buongiorno! (Hello and good day!)
Sue and I have played "ambassador to the United States" these last three weeks, with the happy arrival of some of her family from Italy. Uncle, Aunt, and their nineteen year old daughter Angela arrived for a brief visit in early January along with Angela's fiancée Franco, who has never been to the States before.
The Italian part of the family hails from a little town called Viareggio, which is in north west Italy on the Ligurian Sea, about 20 miles from Pisa in Tuscany.
Any visit from the Italian part of the family is welcome; they're warm, romantic and loving people, and they really took a liking to me when I met them several years back.
When I try to communicate with them, it's like the "I Love Lucy" episodes where five people communicate in five different languages using the "I tell you, you tell him, he tells her, she tells him" method. I worried sometimes that, "Would you like coffee?" might be mistranslated to, "Your country is yucky" or something far worse, but fortunately we were able to communicate fairly well and avoid declarations of war.
Although Sue speaks Italian almost fluently, I wanted to be able to contribute a little more to each conversation besides the minimal ten Italian words I know (not including "spaghetti" and "pizza") so I stopped at Boyden Library for an Italian-English handbook.
While my pronunciation of Italian words was still ludicrous, at least my thoughts and ideas were crossing the language barrier a little more intact. I've often found that foreigners really appreciate it when you at least try to speak their language — even if your pronunciation is as garbled as mine. You're still making a connection because you're making the effort.
While the time was crazed and rushed, these last three weeks of playing tour guide for two extremely likable kids have been a joy. Not only are Franco and Angela obviously in love, but they bring a sense of wonder with them. While Viareggio is very beautiful, they've never seen skyscrapers like the ones in Boston or New York before, or the incredible variety of our local malls. Their biggest mall near Viareggio has about ten stores. On their last visit (and this one) trips to the malls to buy gifts for the family and friends back home were a regular event.
Their generosity extended to us, as we humorously waged regular international incidents over who would pick up the dinner check when we all went out. We started to play games, where Franco would try to grab the check before it landed on the table, or I would race ahead to buy the movie tickets before he could.
For my wife and myself, activities that have long since lost their novelty (such as overlooking the Boston night skyline from the 60th floor of the John Hancock tower) were renewed when seen through the wide-eyed wonder of our Italian guests.
"Bello, bello!" Angela kept repeating. (Beautiful!)
A request to see some "American cinema" lands us at a screening of "Star Trek: First Contact," and the amusing sight of Sue trying to translate the concept of a Borg invasion of 21st century Earth into Italian. While he enjoyed the movie, Franco says he's looking forward to the dubbed version in Italy next year!
We showed them Foxboro Stadium and explained all the hoopla going on here this past month. We tried the exciting "MOM" ride at Jorden's Furniture and had nachos and burgers at the Bull & Finch, a.k.a. Cheers.
We braved the bitter Boston cold to support the Patriots at City Hall Plaza. "Fredo, fredo!" Angela kept repeating, referring to the frigid cold temperatures. She finally sought shelter at a nearby coffee shop, but Franco smiled and kept his camcorder going, drinking in all the enthusiasm of a crowd cheering its beloved home team. Hearing Franco yell, "Go Pats!" in English brought a smile to everyone's face. He even bought a Patriots T-shirt!
A trip to the bowling alley brought us a lot of laughter, especially when we started a new "sudden death" bowling match, where five of us threw a ball down the lane simultaneously. Wisely, we adjourned to the air-hockey tables before the management asked us to leave.
Of course, we had to visit Boston's North End, to compare gourmet coffees and pastries with the originals in Italy. Overall, we found they compare well. We also found a copy of the daily Italian newspaper, which made Franco light up with a ten megawatt smile. He was pleased to learn his favorite sports teams back home were doing well.
Franco and Angela had also asked to try some typical American food, so they had hot dogs at Fanuel hall, and they absolutely loved the steak subs at Primos here in Foxboro, repeatedly saying, "Molto buono, molto buono!" (very good, very good!)
We also got the opportunity to try some authentic Italian cooking. One evening, Franco picked up some spices and vegetables and prepared a very unique pasta sauce. He learned the delicious recipe, he told me, from a woman in Italy who made her living as a lumberjack! A few nights later, Franco also treated us to his homemade tiramisu (a delicious Italian dessert). Uncle favored the family with a uniquely Italian seafood dish a few nights later.
Despite the language barriers, I got to know Franco and Angela pretty well, and Franco became a buddy, mainly because I discovered to my delight that he's as crazy as I am. American or Italian, concepts like humor and music are universal. A hilariously off-key version of the "Lion King" song has everyone in hysterics. Shared interests in music by Enya and Springsteen seem to fill the language gaps nicely. Many moments were truly "You had to be there," but once Franco and I started singing No Mercy's, "Where do you go, my lovely" in a mangled English/Italian version for the family, none of us could stop laughing for the rest of the day.
The little translation book continued to be a hit; Franco and I continued to teach each other Italian and English. Franco says he's going to pick up a similar book so that he can learn some English every day.
For me, one of the nicest moments was when Franco flipped through the translation book and then said in perfect English, "Thank you … very much … for your hospitality."
Don't thank us. We say "grazie" (thank you) to you, for being so loving and fun to be with. We thank you for making a cold January exciting and colorful, and I personally thank you for making me feel like such a welcome member of your family.

Judy Tygard Named Executive Producer of '48 Hours'
Press release from CBS News, April 10, 2019:
Judy Tygard, a multi-award-winning journalist and producer, has been named Executive Producer of CBS News' 48 HOURS, it was announced today by Susan Zirinsky, President and Senior Executive Producer of CBS News.
Tygard will oversee all aspects of the acclaimed crime and justice broadcast, which has been Saturday's #1 non-sports primetime program for more than a decade.
"Judy Tygard is one of the best producers in all of television and an excellent leader," Zirinsky said. "She lives and breathes 48 HOURS. As an innovative Senior Producer, she's expanded the franchise into new areas and will continue to push 48 HOURS into the future."
"48 HOURS is in my DNA," Tygard said. "I joined as a producer in season two. We're now in our 32nd season. I'm so proud of the work we do shining a light on the criminal justice system."
Since 2005, Tygard has served as a senior producer on 48 HOURS. In that role, she created 48 HOURS: "Live to Tell," a short-run series that features first-person accounts of people who have survived horrific events. "Live to Tell" has earned awards for documenting the challenges facing a victim of sex trafficking and the struggle of a survivor of the 2016 Brussels terror attack.
Additionally, Tygard has been an integral producer in many of CBS News' primetime specials, including the upcoming "Meghan and Harry Plus One" and the George Foster Peabody-nominated "39 Days," a documentary about the student activist movement that followed the school shooting in Parkland, Fla. She was co-executive producer of the "The Gayle King Interview with R. Kelly," and was key in the specials "Dan Rather: A Reporter Remembers" and "Flashpoint," about the roadside attack in Iraq that killed CBS News cameraman Paul Douglas and soundman James Brolin.
Tygard's work has been recognized with five Emmys, three Alliance for Women in Media Gracie Awards, the Sigma Delta Chi Award, Silver Gavel, Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award and the George Foster Peabody Award.
Tygard began her CBS News career as a writer for anchors Bob Schieffer and Morton Dean at the CBS EVENING NEWS weekend editions. She also worked at CBS THIS MORNING as a writer, copy editor, line producer and anchor producer. During her career, Tygard has covered a wide range of economic, political and international stories for CBS News such as the Moscow Summit, unrest in Cuba, Japan's post-war reckoning, political conventions and the inaugurations of three presidents.
She joined 48 HOURS in 1989 as a producer. She left for a brief stint at ABC News and later returned to 48 HOURS.
Throughout her career, Tygard has focused on stories that examine the fairness of the judicial system, and has produced several editions of 48 HOURS centered on cases of the wrongfully accused.
In 2018 she was part of the team behind "Defending DJ," a report on an unarmed African-American college student shot to death by police, and the misleading narrative created in the aftermath. In 2016 she led a team that produced "Blaming Melissa," a 48 HOURS report that uncovered new evidence and cast substantial doubt on the criminal confession of a young woman questioned by police for nine hours.
Tygard also spent eight years working with the team behind a series of reports on Ryan Ferguson, a Missouri man wrongfully convicted of murder, who later credited the broadcast with helping him gain his freedom. And in 2012, Tygard was the senior producer of "Grave Injustice," an award-winning 48 HOURS about a man deprived of compensation by the State of Texas after spending 18 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit.
Tygard began her broadcasting career at WNEW-TV in New York, rising to broadcast producer for the station's 10 PM newscast.
She graduated magna cum laude from Emerson College.

Complex concepts verse simple ideas, is something hotly debated. Some people dislike complex and find it frustrating and some people dislike simple and find it boring. Let's take a look at checkers. In checkers, all the pieces move the same way. Move forward on the same colored squares. This might be boring but it becomes complex when you learn to control the board. This game might be called simple or boring, but this status is applied to the game because the rules are so simple.
Oppose to chess, which all the pieces move in a unique fashion. Capturing a token is different in chess also. Take the knight. A checker's player might come to learn that they can not take units by hopping over them with the knight. The horseman needs to land on the same square like all the other pieces in order to capture an enemy token.
The rules are fairly complex compared to checkers because each token gets a unique way of moving. Lets look at one of three of the most complicated tokens on the field: the Queen. The Queen can move in the same fashion as any unit on the board except the knight. This might be hard for beginners to realize and come to terms with.
As a result of learning this, many new comers will move the queen out first. Using her to take control of the board, Only after the player moving up against someone who can counter the queens moves will the new comer come to terms with not exploiting the queen so early.
Let's look at some complex and simple chars in dota. Take, Lion. He is by far a simple char. This hero main goals is to stun, and damage enemies heavily. He can siphon mana from the enemy If he runs out. His basic form is attack, steal mana , attack some more, rinse and repeat. There is more to this hero but that is his unique stance.
Take a complicated hero like bat rider. Bat rider, you have to focus on enemy positioning, attack, single out a specific target. And an entire hodge podge of other behaviors in order to succeed with batrider.
In Dota complexity comes from the behavior you have to emulate oppose to other games where rules might reveal the chars complexity.
Lets go back to chess. The pawn is a complex unit because it has around four rules to function at a suitable rate compared to other chars on the playing field. It can sometimes jump twice, sideways or just move forward one. Each of these rules change depending on the situation evolving on the game field.
There are not that many simple heroes in dota. Most heroes in dota are somewhat complex and require unique behavior in order to function during the match. Take one of the simplist heroes PA or sniper.
Sniper and PA have two main goals. Attack, and use teammates to escape. Positioning is key with this hero.

Daniel Radcliffe to Play American Journalist in Tokyo Vice
Posted by Howard Gorman on May 2, 2013 0 Comments
'I Spit On Your Grave 2′ UK Release this Autumn
First Look Images of Indonesian Thriller 'Killers'
Director signs for Fifty Shades of Grey Movie
Since he put his magic wand away, Daniel Radcliffe has certainly gone for pretty much the darkest and and most sinister roles that we certainly never expected to see the Harry Potter star tackle. The British actor's latest role as Allen Ginsberg in Kill Your Darlings was more than well received at the Sundance Festival last January and this October he'll be seen starring alongside June Temple and James Remar in the horror film Horns, based on the novel by Joe Hill (Stephen King's son) and directed by Alexandre Aja (High Tension, Mirrors).
Radcliffe has now signed up for the film Tokyo Vice playing the lead role of Jake Adelstein, an American journalist who spent over a decade working for the Yomiuri Shinbun newspaper in Tokyo, reporting from the depths of the Japanese crime world. Things take a turn for the worst when he ends up getting into trouble with Yakuza boss Tadamasa Goto, who is known as the John Gotti of Japan.
The script is based on the real life memoirs of Adelstein himself, who is working on the script with playwright J.T. Rogers, with advertisement and music video Director Anthony Mandler in the Director's chair for his debut feature film. Said memoirs were concluded when both Adelstein and other members of his family started receiving death threats.
Radcliffe is also tied to the upcoming, as-yet-untitled Frankenstein project which we hope to be able to bring you more information for soon.

Defeat or Liberation? Forum for East German Studies
Defeat or Liberation – 1945 in Film
7 May 2010: Forum for East German Studies
On the occasion of the 65th anniversary of 1945, the Centre for East German Studies, University of Reading, cordially invites everyone interested to a one-day research forum on the depiction of the end of World War II and its immediate aftermath in European feature film. The forum will take East German war films as its point of departure for a broad discussion on influences and points of contact between approaches to the topic on both sides of the Iron Curtain. The morning session of the forum will therefore present papers on important East German war films while the afternoon session will introduce films from other national cinemas such as Poland, Italy, America, and Great Britain and discuss their view on the events.
The forum will take place on

When you are running a start-up, you live on what I like to call a start-up budget. Just like how you run your start-up, you need to live your life the same way.
You live a minimum viable life.
New York has the most expensive "everything" on Earth. Food, drink, housing, entertainment, you name it.
But what I love about New York is that it has both extremes and it's still possible to live a good life on a start-up budget.
I'm lucky enough to have a mate here, Brian, who has let me live in his spare room for the past few months for nothing.
It's no Waldorf-Astoria, but that's the way I like it at the moment. In fact, I use my living arrangement as motivation to succeed.
You can get anywhere in New York City on the subway. The only time you should take a cab is well after midnight.
Whether it's just a BBQ with friends or a bigger function, it usually results in having a great time and getting fed, not to mention probably a few drinks.
Lots of free events will put out food and drink, and a lot of the time they even have an open bar for a while. Eat and drink as much as you can.
A lot of bars and restaurants will offer a free drink or another special if it's the first time you are checking in.
Just last night at our DUNY (Down Under New York) meet-up I got a free glass of white wine. A mate told me only the other day he planned his whole evening bar hopping to get free drinks at each bar. I think he got up to 4.
The coupons I find useful are for everyday things like cheap movie tickets or haircuts.
The most interesting coupon I saw recently was for helicopter lessons. Only in America.
Unless you can get your hands on some free food, I think it's OK to eat two meals a day. Of course, your mum will tell you not to, but hey, it saves a few bucks a day.
My office is in midtown Manhattan so I've spent many days looking for cheap places to eat. My favourite is a place called Mangia on 48th Street between 5th and 6th that sells healthy food by the weight.
On the same block there is a pizza shop that has 99c pizza on Tuesdays or just around the corner you can go to the falafel truck where a meal will set you back only $4.
My favourite restaurant around here is the Heartland Brewery because you can get 3 sliders for $9. You could say I'm pretty easily pleased.
For some people food is a passion, but for me at this stage of my life it's just something to keep me going.
Whether it's a band playing at a bar, or a movie playing in Bryant Park, you can always find something to do that doesn't cost anything.
If someone offers to pay for your drink or dinner, accept it and offer to pick up the bill next time you meet up.

Juicing and Fiber
Nick Delgado, PhD, CHT
Interviewer: You talked about the importance of fiber a lot. What about juicing? That's a big movement as well, and a lot of times when you do that, you take the fiber out. What do you think about that?
Nick Delgado, PhD, CHT: Right, right. So I came to terms with the whole idea of the difference between juicing and blending and whole superfoods. I found a middle ground because I thought that the greens could be juiced and concentrate all the super liquid nutrition to improve nitric oxide, to improve basal dilation, improve circulation. And there's probably chlorophyll and detoxifiers in greens.
Interviewer: Mm-hmm.
Nick Delgado, PhD, CHT: So there's a variety of greens: kale and swiss chard and arugula and carrots and different things that I juice- and then I take that juice and I put it in a Vitamix with whole food. I blend it so I get the fiber. I don't discard that; I keep that. The juicer discards the carrot fibers, but I can take that carrot fiber and throw it into the Vitamix, so it's still in there. But I wanted that juice to get the concentration, and I still wanted the fiber. When people see my salads, they're blown away. They say, "You're going to eat that salad that big?" I say, "Yeah, it's going to take me half a day to eat it," but it's a salad that's this big in a container. I have a little travel case I take with me and it's stacked with swiss chard and arugula and spinach and asparagus. I'll put a little hummus in there, an eggplant. It has 10 different vegetables in there with sauces and flavors, so I look forward to eating that big salad everyday. It fills me up and satisfies me.
To answer your question, I think if you had a choice between juicing and blending, I would probably just do the blending. But if you have the luxury of adding some juices to a shot of juice here and there of greens, do that as well. I think you need that super concentrated nutrition, but you still need that fiber and you still need to chew. I notice if you take the juices and you just swallow it down without swishing it around your mouth, you don't quite get the optimum nitric oxide levels. There's a test we can do for nitric oxide, which is very important for good circulation nutrition. That's where you need to eat the big salads with swiss chard and kale and arugula to get all of that chewing action to release these nutrients. I do all three. I don't choose one as better than the other. I think, do all three and it's easy to do all three. Juice, throw it into the Vitamix, blend, and then you have the super powders that go in. Then eat your big salads and you've got the best of all worlds.

Earlier this year, though skeptical, I purchased a manager's special package of blueberry maple pork sausage. These are full-sized links, not breakfast sausage, although the flavoring says breakfast. I loved them, so this week when I noticed pork with pumpkin sausage, I bought it. Also terrific. I put them in the oven, unpricked, at 300F for 30 minutes, then turn the heat up by 50-75 degrees (depending on whatever else I'm baking at the same time) for another 15 minutes.
Good to know about the sausages, Grey. When we were in Vermont we used to shop at Hannaford's in South Burlington. There they had an all inclusive assortment of fresh Chiles. Do find the same in the MA Hannaford's?
Can't help you there - I never ever buy them, anywhere. What little chili heat I can tolerate comes from jars or bottles.
You can't beat their return policy. Recently, I was overcharged on eggplant, not noticing till I got home that I paid for baby eggplant when what I bought was regular purple ones on sale for 99 cents/#. When I took the receipt in to ask to be refunded the difference, which was about $4.50. I was told that because it was a produce error, the item would be free, plus a double refund. Despite my protestations, they insisted on giving me over $12 !
Well, that's really impressive! Sounds even better than Trader Joe's refund policy. Thanks, GG.


The internet has literally changed the way we interact with everyday life. Everything you need can now be accessed in the comfort of your own home, right from the computer. Shopping for apparel, electronics, and even real estate can all be done comfortably online. Why waste precious gas money on a trip to a retail store when you can download your favorite songs, movies and games from the internet? Check the balance of your bank account at any time of day or remotely access client data and finish all of your work at home. In fact, there is little you can't do online these days.
With the convenience of the internet comes many dangers. Hackers, con artists and malicious programs all pose a threat to your computer and the information it contains. Whether you're conducting business online or merely managing your emails, learning to practice safe computing is a must. By employing a few essential security measures, you can drastically reduce the chance of being victimized by the array of online threats.
First and foremost, you need to understand the importance of protecting your personal information, a factor that just can't be stressed enough. This critical information is powerful ammunition to an identity thief as it could give them easy access to your bank account, credit cards, medical records and other critical assets.
You may find yourself saying, "I'm nobody special, why would anyone want my personal information?" The harsh reality is that anyone can be victimized by identify theft. The numbers reported by the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) are staggering, revealing that millions of consumers become victims each year. Because online criminals obtain personal information in various ways, you need to take various preventative measures to ensure that your data is safe.
Once used primarily in the network environment, the firewall has become a data security tool for the home user as well. Virus and spyware scanners will keep the malicious software away but are virtually useless against determined intruders looking to steal your data. A firewall will help to keep computer crackers out of your system by monitoring network traffic. For the average home user, this network is the internet. Acting as your personal security guard, a firewall looks out for outside intrusion and will alert you of anyone attempting to access your computer. Some also monitor and block outbound traffic, preventing an application on your computer from communicating with third-party sources and downloading dangerous content.
With hacking attempts on the incline, many of the newer operating systems and network devices come equipped with built-in firewalls. Some come integrated with anti-virus programs. In any event, the firewall must be enabled, properly configured and frequently updated in order to provide the best protection. If you are using the firewall on your Windows operating system, make sure that you are receiving regular updates from the Microsoft website. Without this security mechanism, the gates to your computer are wide open to internet prowlers.
There are several other protective measures you can take towards securing your data. Encryption mechanisms, security software and password protection schemes also play a critical role in keeping online criminals away from your confidential information.

No conflict within Indian team: Ganguly
KOLKATA - Former India captain Sourav Ganguly on Thursday rubbished reports of internal conflict within the Indian team following a humiliating One-Day International (ODI) series defeat against Bangladesh. "You get to hear all these when a team loses and has not played to their potential. I believe there is no conflict within the team, all of these things have been made up," he told media persons here.
Following, the team's first-ever ODI series loss to minnows Bangladesh, Test skipper Virat Kohli had expressed concern over the team's decision-making. "Not too happy with the way we have played. We have been sort of doubtful in our decision-making and that shows on the field," the flamboyant Kohli had said fueling speculations of a rift within the team. His comments followed team-mates Suresh Raina and Ravichandran Ashwin's vocal support for ODI skipper M.S. Dhoni whose personal coach has claimed "groupism" within the team as the reason for India's loss. He further claimed that it was affecting Dhoni's concentration and subsequently individual performance. Expressing disappointment over India's performance, Ganguly credited Bangladesh for outplaying India. "It is disappointing (the result). But Bangladesh have played brilliant cricket credit should be given to them," he said. Ganguly also supported Dhoni's decision to bat up the order. The keeper-batsman, who usually comes in at number six, came out to bat at number four in the last two games of the series scoring 116 runs including a 69. The southpaw also asserted everything was fine with BCCI president Jagmohan Dalmiya. According to media reports, the Supreme Court-appointed Justice Lodha Committee found the board president's "speech incoherent and incomprehensible" when it met him in Kolkata on Tuesday.
The three-judge committee has been appointed to prescribe punishment for ex-BCCI president N. Srinivasan's son-in-law and Chennai Super Kings official Gurunath Meiyappan and Rajasthan Royals co-owner Raj Kundra, both of whom were found involved in betting in IPL 2013. After a release from BCCI on Thursday refuted such claims, Ganguly too echoed the same sentiments saying: "Our president is absolutely fit."


A rectangular George W. Bush button from his first presidential campaign.
All through the twelve years of his father's four campaigns for the highest national offices, George W. Bush was at his father's side: 1980, when he lost the presidential nomination but won as the vice-presidential candidate with Reagan, their 1984 re-election, the 1988 he won to become President and the failed 1984 re-election bid.
As his father's primary aide, "W." had a unique perspective on what had worked during the four national campaigns and what had not. Whether or not his father's lack of defining campaign theme music was important enough to appear on his radar, George W. would do it differently in his own 2000 and 2004 presidential campaigns.
Unlike his father's 1988 campaign use of the flag, George W. Bush's 2000 campaign brand carried the single, unmistakable Lone Star of Texas.
Mellencamp was one of several recording artists who asked the Bush campaign to stop using their music.
Despite his decisiveness about his music, George W. Bush was tweaked more than any previous presidential candidate for appropriating contemporary music for his first campaign to win the Republican nomination and then general election which culminated in the disputed election of 2000. The Bush campaign used I Won't Back Down by Tom Petty, R.O.C.K. in the USA by John Cougar Mellencamp, and Brand New Day by Sting. One by one, each of the musicians registered their public objection to this because they didn't politically support him. In each case, the W. Bush campaign ceased using the music.
Billy Ray Cyrus, as famous for popularizing the mullet hairstyle as his music.
In danger of becoming the first major party presidential candidate without any campaign theme music, it was George W. Bush media advisers who readily accepted the offer of the Sony music label's Monument Records to use an original song by Southern Rock artist Billy Ray Cyrus. Best known for popularizing the questionable "mullet" hairstyle in the 199os and his hit song Achy Breaky Heart, the song had an appealingly democratic title, We The People, the first three words of the U.S. Constitution.
As it turns out, We The People was offered not only to the Bush campaign but that of his opponent Democrat Al Gore as well. Monument Records was, in fact, seeking to promote the song which was part of the album Southern Rain, released at the time of the two conventions in the summer of 2000. It featured not just Cyrus but a number of other guest country-western music stars, including Waylon Jennings.
With lyrics heralding Americans of the working-class ("We pay the taxes, we pay the bills, so they better pay attention on Capitol Hill…"), We the People was a grittier take on the theme evoked in Reagan's 1984 "Morning in America" theme with a harder country music twang than Reagan's God Bless the USA by Lee Greenwood.
Hoping to appeal to Latino voters, the Bush campaign had used several songs by Latino performer Ricky Martin, who then performed at W's 2001 Inaugural opening ceremonies (and danced with him) though withdrew his support five years later in protest of the Iraqi War.
At the dawn of the 21st century, the Internet had not only made all recorded music instantly accessible but allowed for more rapid downloads onto portable CD disks. The proliferation of choice forever altered the uses of music in presidential campaigns to shift perceptions and tailor it to the purpose of different rallies and events. Bush staffers burned CDS with a multitude of music tracks, using whatever music pumped up various demographics of crowds wherever the candidate was speaking.
For events hosted for Latino voters which the Bush campaign sought to cultivate into the Republican column, for example, a number of recorded tracks by Latino pop singer Ricky Martin were often used. Before the convention, some of his advisers had given consideration to making the song Closer To Free by the rock band BoDeans because its lead singer was Latino and they were natives of Wisconsin, a key state in the general election. They decided not to go with it.
Bush on the Rangers ball-field.
One more frequently used because its lyrics could more directly be applied to George W. Bush's biography and the perception of his political philosophy which the campaign hoped to emphasize once he had won the nomination.
President Bush on the 2004 re-election campaign trail.
Four years later, as President George W. Bush kicked off his re-election campaign, he again ran afoul for appropriating a contemporary work, Still the One, because its co-writer and singer John Hall of Hall & Oates was a rabid Democrat. As was already the established tradition by 2004, a number of current and popular songs were used at campaign events by both Bush and his Democratic rival John Kerry. Two other songs frequently used by the President in 2004 were Right Now by Van Halen and Wave on Wave by Pat Green.
The Afghani War and the Iraqi War which President Bush led the United States into during his first term had been incited, according to the Administration, by the terrorist attack on New York's World Trade Center and the Pentagon Building in Washington, D.C. on September 11, 2001.
Bush's 2004 re-election campaign emphasized the September 11 World Trade Center attack and his subsequent Afghani War and Iraqi War.
The wars and the attacks would come to define Bush's entire eight-year presidency, the themes of his 2004 re-election campaign and most aspects of Pop Culture in the Uh-Ohs Decade, including popular music.
The cover art for Only in America.
Although the song Only in America, by the country-rock music team of Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn had been released on their album Steers & Stripes in the summer of 2001, several months before the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, it hit the number one spot on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts after the trauma.
Among the numerous patriotic country songs written in reaction to September 11, however, the quality of Only in America made it a stand-out.
The music and lyrics of Only in America proved so popular that it was also used at the Democratic National Convention which nominated Kerry and, again, at the 2008 one which nominated Barack Obama, played after the candidate's acceptance speech.
It has even been heard this year at rallies for both of the 2012 candidates, President Obama and Mitt Romney.
Bush uses the Texas longhorn signal at his 2005 Inauguration.
Despite the song being used by numerous candidates of both parties, George W. Bush might claim a slight edge of propriety about the twang of Only in America. For once, the artists who created one of the songs W used in his campaigns not only didn't mind his use of their song but they were avid supporters of his candidacy.
And, in an appreciative turn, he invited them to perform it at his 2005 Inaugural concert.

Furthermore, 40 new leap shot landings have been added, together with a series upgrades on the defensive end too.Redesigned badges along with the ability to swap in and out will also make a return this season. However, 2K will eliminate the rapid draw and put release speed back into Jump Shot creator 2K recently...
Can I do four missions out of Mazchna (the smallest point guy) and then begin on greater ones for my 5th?
So I decided I really want to have that neato slayer helmet, but I have a few questions about the way in which the slayer points do the job. The explanation in the conclusion of our Smoking Kills quest guide is not too great... So I need to RS gold do four assignments before I earn points on the 5th mission, right? Can I do four missions from Mazchna (the lowest point man ) and then start on...
I am aware of, but that's dumb.
I am aware of, but that's dumb. If you would like to NBA 2K21 MT include badges/Attributes I don't have any problem with it, but shot's should be the same, height must be the exact same etc.. It's not always bad, for example, when BB tatum launched in myteam, the changes were welcome, because the shot was much better IMO, but I feel like this should have been done before that and then keep it...
There is still no skill gap.
Sizeups are not difficult to use and do not require a lot of skill. Dribbling has a lot more to do with just spamming a combo it also has to NBA 2K Coins do with a change of speed aswell. A game with sizeups that automatically set the pace of a movement is going to be a whole lot simpler to use as opposed to a sport where you're required to create your own pace and use that for your advantage....

Q: Adding onClick event to MKAnnotation swift I am currently getting some locations from a web request using alamofire, store them in my Object array and then display them on a MKMapView.
 func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, viewFor annotation: MKAnnotation) -> MKAnnotationView? {
    guard !(annotation is MKUserLocation) else {
        return nil
    }

    let annotationIdentifier = "AnnotationIdentifier"

    var annotationView: MKAnnotationView?
    if let dequeuedAnnotationView = mapView.dequeueReusableAnnotationView(withIdentifier: annotationIdentifier) {
        annotationView = dequeuedAnnotationView
        annotationView?.annotation = annotation
    }
    else {
        annotationView = MKAnnotationView(annotation: annotation, reuseIdentifier: annotationIdentifier)
        annotationView?.rightCalloutAccessoryView = UIButton(type: .detailDisclosure)
    }

    if let annotationView = annotationView {
        annotationView.canShowCallout = true
        annotationView.image = UIImage(named: "atm_map_icon")
    }

    return annotationView
}

And here is where i parse the json, put the result in an array and the loop through the array and add the markers to the map
for var i in 0..<json.count{
                let name = json[i]["Name"].string
                let address = json[i]["Address"].string
                let lat = json[i]["Lat"].double
                let lon = json[i]["Lon"].double
                let atm = Atm(name: name!,address: address!,lat: lat!,lon: lon!)
                self.atmArrayList.append(atm)

            }
            print(self.atmArrayList.count)
        }
        for atm in self.atmArrayList{
            let atmPin = AtmAnnotation(title: atm.name!, subtitle: atm.address!, atm: atm, coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: atm.lat!, longitude: atm.lon!))
            self.annotationArray.append(atmPin)
        }

        self.atmMapView.addAnnotations(self.annotationArray)

What i want to achieve is so when the user clicks on the rightCalloutAccessoryView button, i want to pass the specific Atm object of that Annotation to the another ViewController.
My guess is to give the Annotations an id and then get the Atm from the Atm array in that specific position??

A: You need to implement this method of MapViewDelegate in your viewController
func mapView(_ mapView: MKMapView, annotationView view: MKAnnotationView, calloutAccessoryControlTapped control: UIControl) {
  let anotherViewController = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "anotherViewController") as! AnotherViewController
  if let atmPin = view.annotation as? AtmAnnotation
  {
    anotherViewController.currentAtmPin = atmPin
  }
  self.navigationController?.pushViewController(anotherViewController, animated: true)

}

Hope this helps

Q: NSDecimalNumber RestKit precision error Very strange NSDecimalNumber precision error (or perhaps operator error that I'm not seeing) with RestKit v 0.10.2
Class definition:
....
@property (nonatomic, assign) NSInteger menuItemId;
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSString *menuItemTitle;
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSString *menuItemDescription;
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSDecimalNumber *menuItemPrice;
....

JSON text:
{"MenuItemId":5,
 "MenuItemTitle":"Grilled Jumbo Shrimp Penne Pasta",
 "MenuItemDescription":"spinach, mushrooms, garlic, sour cream, sun-dried tomatoes",
 "MenuItemBasePrice":9.9500}

Object mapping is unremarkable:
 [objectMapping mapKeyPath:@"MenuItemId" toAttribute:@"menuItemId"];
 [objectMapping mapKeyPath:@"MenuItemTitle" toAttribute:@"menuItemTitle"];
 [objectMapping mapKeyPath:@"MenuItemDescription" toAttribute:@"menuItemDescription"];
 [objectMapping mapKeyPath:@"MenuItemBasePrice" toAttribute:@"menuItemPrice"];

Yet deserialization results in menuItemPrice value = 9.9499999999
Seems that error / issue can be trace back to these lines in RKObjectMappingOperation in method
- (id)transformValue:(id)value atKeyPath:(NSString *)keyPath toType:(Class)destinationType

....
} else if ([sourceType isSubclassOfClass:[NSNumber class]] && [destinationType isSubclassOfClass:[NSDecimalNumber class]]) {
    // Number -> Decimal Number
    return [NSDecimalNumber decimalNumberWithDecimal:[value decimalValue]];
} ....

The "value" is of type NSCFNumber, and I appear to be losing precision in the value mapping from NSCFNumber to NSDecimalNumber.
This is a big deal for me as I'm dealing w/ prices & currency.
Am I missing obvious here? Not seeing how / why this happens and what to do about it.
Thanks!

A: It seems to be a known issue of Restkit, and still remains in 0.20
As @blakewatters's comment, server should return floating point number within a string, client still declares NSDecimalNumber for correspondent field, and Restkit will convert more correctly.


I finally got back home, it took me a bit longer than expected but I made it and I started to celebrate the festive season the Italian way with family and friends.
Yesterday I was reading the newspaper and I read about a MP calling the chairman of Tesco as the godfather of binge drinking and then I received a mail from the WSTA (wine and spirit trade association) to which I belong asking for information for a survey on how an increase of alcohol duty will affect the trade and I decided to write about it. Binge drinking is a problem.
For the coming Christmas we are all making room in our cellar for the right wines for our days and nights in with friends and families. My Christmas wines will be Prosecco to start with, plenty of full bodies, rich, complex aged red for the classic Italian meals and the traditional Spumante to accompany the Panettone and to welcome the New Year. Christmas festive season in Italy is made by days spent eating and drinking. Long meals, plenty of food eaten and wine drunk outside when visiting friends and families, a marathon harder than the real one if you are not fit. Somehow, Italians got something in their DNA about this capacity of enjoying food and wine in bigger quantities.
Writing the content for the website is not easy, we don't want to tell you something you already know or you can easily find somewhere else, we would like to write the description in a way that you could smell the same flavours we do, that you could, opening our Panettone, feel like you were in a bakery, a small one, surrounded by the aromas and flour.
It has been a long journey but we finally made it. The new Italyabroad.com site is now live and we really hope you like it... we put a lot of effort to create this site and we listened to all your comments. Thanks for helping us and please do let us know if you are happy with the result.
"Andrea, I received an offer from ...... and they were selling a bottle of Barolo for £..., what do you think? " this is a question I received a couple of days ago from one of our clients and because after that I received the same newsletter and there was no vintage with regard to the Barolo but not only, I decided it was worth mentioning it in the blog. When buying wines like Barolo or Brunello di Montalcino, but not only, what determines the quality and the price of the wine is the vintage. In countries like Italy but I would include the whole old world, not all vintages are the same.


Today, I got a surprising call on the door.
The postman arrived with a package, and it is rare that they do deliver these days, but I was lucky!
Arriving on my door was two laser cut plastic rings, that will be used for making my dome run nice and smooth!
More on this in a later post!
In addition to this, I have also received some more stuff for the electronics inside.
A few days ago, I got a package with cables for my servos, and the smallest, tiniest audio module I've ever seen!
Six channels, in addition to my arduino uno, can really work on getting a lot of functionality remote controlled!
I have yet to plug this in, as I have some more body work to do before I'll go all in on the electronics!
Enough of rants about gear. Let's do some building!
