A: SpeechRecognitionEngine has multiple "modes". You are using it in command mode, meaning you give it some prespecified words that it can recognize. To use it in Dictation mode, which allows it to recognize arbitrary words, add an instance of System.Speech.Recognition.DictationGrammar as a Grammar to your SpeechRecognitionEngine, by doing so: rec.LoadGrammar(new DictationGrammar());. After this is done, the SpeechRecognitionEngine will recognize arbitrary words.

To do the actual google search part, you can search for something on google by doing so: System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://www.google.com/search?q=" + StringToSearchFor). This can be used in the rec_SpeechRecognized method. You could for instance check if the recognized text starts with "google", and then search for whatever comes after that.
Example:
    private void rec_SpeachRecognized(object sender, SpeechRecognizedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Result.Text.StartsWith("google "))
        {
            System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(
                "https://www.google.com/search?q=" + e.Result.Text.Substring(7) //"google " is 7 characters long.
            );
        }
        ...
    }

Who is Lemmy Kilmister? He is an English singer, songwriter, musician and the founder, lead singer, bassist, and primary songwriter of the rock band Motörhead, who is known for his music that was one of the foundations of the heavy metal genre, for his appearance, which included his signature friendly mutton chops, his military-influenced fashion sense, and his gravelly rasp of a voice that was described as "one of the most recognisable voices in rock". He was born on Monday December 24th 1945, in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, England.
Lemmy Kilmister is a born leader, with extra-ordinary drive and determination. Insisting on his right to make up his own mind, he demands freedom of thought and action, and does not let anything or anyone stand in his way once he is committed to his goal.
Always seeking the forefront and the limelight, Lemmy needs to feel in command of important undertakings, and resists supportive roles. He can become irritated and even domineering when important things do not go his way. Kilmister can be impatient with his shortcomings and those of others.
Lemmy Kilmister is very concerned with his status and fosters the appearance of success and self-satisfaction. Interestingly, that very same need to appear well-off can be the fuel that propels Lemmy to strive for growth, success and the finer things of life.
Lemmy Kilmister assumes the responsibility to be the protector and provider for those he loves, but demands their respect and attention in return.
Exceptionally creative and original, Lemmy possesses a touch of the unusual. His approach to problems is unique and he has the courage to wander from the traditional templates of thoughts and deeds. More...
More flavors to Lemmy's personality
Entrepreneurial and progressive, Lemmy Kilmister is ever-striving, heading for the top, and enjoying an enterprising, ambitious and determined personality to do things well, and an unyielding dedication to his plan until the goals are achieved.
There is danger, however that his trait of determination and dedication will shift to stubbornness, making Lemmy cling to ideas and projects well past their fruitious season. It is a good idea for him to keep fresh pipeline of ideas to make it easier to replace outdated plans by new and better ones.
Tour Lemmy's menu and gain more insight into his personality traits, relationships, strengths and weaknesses, likes and dislikes, compatibility with you and with others, and much more.

In Rural America, We Need Sex Ed Along With Accessible Reproductive Health Care
For Trans Men Seeking Reproductive Health Care, 'There Are Barriers Every Step of the Way'
Jun 12, 2017, 5:41pm Amanda Lanteri-Simmons
Sexual health is a lifetime responsibility, and we need to equip young people with the tools they need.
Only as an adult have I come to understand that public health depends on health education, particularly sexual education.
Rural communities like mine stand to be particularly harmed by the Trump administration's efforts to eliminate key provisions of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). These changes come at a time when sexual health education has declined disproportionately in rural areas. A lack of comprehensive sexual health education, paired with the rolling back of ACA gains in rural communities, will exacerbate an already dire situation.
As reproductive rights advocates fight for expanded access to health-care services, we must also continue working to ensure that schools and community programs are providing education on contraceptive options and other sexual health issues. These issues are inextricable: Without equipping our community with knowledge about their own bodies, how will we move the needle forward in any way?
I am a mother of two children in Visalia, California, schools—the same system I attended as a kid. Our county, Tulare County, went 56 percent for Trump in the presidential election. At the same time, our county is home to a thriving community that supports, depends on, and could greatly benefit from expanded access to contraception, including young families, LGBTQ people, and women. We all have the right to decide if, when, and how we will parent.
And yet, sexual health education and other critical services are still hard to come by. Fewer than 10 percent of U.S. physicians practice in rural areas, according to Stanford eCampus Rural Health. Often rural residents need to travel significant distances just to reach a health-care provider, which can require us to take time off work and pay for transportation and other costs like child care. Once we reach a health center, rural residents are disproportionately dependent on Medicaid to get health coverage, which is under threat by congressional Republicans' effort to defund Planned Parenthood and repeal the ACA.
I volunteer in a group that informs the community about the Healthy Youth Act (which requires sex education in California schools) and school districts about the implementation of the law. As part of this group, we receive sexual health education, including anatomy lessons, in-depth contraceptive information, a condom demonstration, and more. I could plainly see how important and informative these lessons would be in schools. It might be the only time that adolescents receive sexual education of any kind. It cannot be assumed that each child is receiving supplemental sex education at home, or that what their parent or guardian teaches them is medically accurate and unbiased.
At one point it occurred to me that my fellow volunteers and I receive a more comprehensive sexual education experience in our meetings than what was offered to me in my public school, and not much has improved since I was a student.
The number of rural girls receiving birth control information actually has declined in recent years, from 71 percent to 48 percent, and among boys from 59 percent to 45 percent, according to the Guttmacher Institute. Although my district teaches Positive Prevention Plus, which abides by state guidelines, in some ways, a sex ed curriculum is only as good as the leadership that teaches and believes in it.
In my quest to learn more about what curriculum is implemented in Visalia schools, I contacted a health director by phone and a school principal in person. Appallingly, I was not only met with attitudes and tones of annoyance at any and all questions concerning sex education, but unapologetic carelessness about having the third-highest rate in the state for teen pregnancy, and sexually transmitted infection (STI) rates through the roof, in our county, with very few resources available for the most at-risk populations. The health director stated that "condom demonstrations are not proven to be effective," and the principal said that "Planned Parenthood only served one agenda," which I interpret to mean he believes health centers and organizations that provide reproductive and sexual health care have some kind of nefarious intent, rather than the simple truth that they provide some of the only resources to young people in our community.
Research and personal experience tell me the opposite of what school officials claim: You don't just go to a reproductive and sexual health clinic for abortions, but to learn about birth control options, get screened for cancers and STIs, and learn about your body as a whole.
It is clear that people with these perceptions of reproductive health care will continue to be ineffective at helping to promote positive change in our community. They've left it up to community organizations—like the Source LGBT+ Center, and ACT for Women and Girls, which I participate in—to fill the void on sexual health education, contraceptive access, and reproductive justice as a whole.
Only as an adult have I come to understand that public health depends on health education, particularly sexual education. I would much prefer that my kids learn about the responsibility of having safer sex than learn the responsibility of being a reluctant teen parent. And no matter what choices my kids make, I want them to have the knowledge they need to make informed decisions, with confidence and resources.
Between a lack of quality sex education (which may only get worse with the help of the Department of Health and Human Services's recent hire) and added barriers to contraception and reproductive health care coming out of Washington, rural America must fight back against both national and local barriers to women's health and freedom. We need to put the pressure on our local lawmakers, and let school officials know that sexual health education and access to resources are priorities among parents as well as adolescents.
Knowledge is power, and I intend for my two kids to grow up to be powerful community leaders.

Although there is little existing evidence of how life once was for ancient people much information can be gathered to create a full picture of what it was once like. To discover how it used to be there are three basic goals set by archeologists and other scientists. These goals consist of chronology, reconstruction and explanation. They are set to shed light on cultures and lives that were forgotten so long ago and link them to our own modern lives.
Chronology is the records that archeologists and historians keep and use to gain a better perspective of time and to which era where each culture is placed.
Excavations are an important aspect of chronology they are the basis for everything found. Excavations reveal the order that and remnants were left in relation to other artifact layers. This aids in determining the approximate age of each component of the layers contents. However there are other ways to make sure these dates are even more accurate and precise.
As possible data and other artifacts are found at excavation sites they are sent for laboratory analysis, where such methods as carbon dating take place.
Chronological data is important as it provides information on such things as the spread of technology from one tribe or region to another and how long and what patterns it took to get there. Through careful excavating and attention to detail scientists are able to find and fit together what some might say are meaningless shards with no value and discover that it is the missing piece that shows the spread of one culture to another. An example of spread of technology and its evolution might be a cylinder seals commonly found in the near east. These cylinder seals were first produced around the year 3500 B.C. in Sumaria. These early seals were simple in the beginning. They were rather large tubes with decorative engravings ranging in size from four cm to six cm in length. Many cylinder seals have been found throughout other near eastern excavations where they have been documented and tracked. As time went on they became smaller (around two cm.) and much more detailed. By these later time periods people began experimenting with many different kinds of materials such as stone, shell, bone and also ivory. This illustrates the progression of cylinder seals and how they were changed over a period of time.
Reconstruction is based on information gathered from chronology and the physical evidence found at excavation sites. Archeologists and historians take this information to recreate the way things could have been in past cultures. Reconstructions are also subject to change as more data is found and studied it may be added, altering the way scientist originally thought it things may have been. Reconstruction is all subject to interpretation of documented material remains and also environmental remnants in their chronological contexts. Environmental remains may be such things as animal body part or plant remains.
In the 1960's Richard MacNeish headed a group of archeologists and scientists from other fields reconstructed the way people of Mexico's Tehuacan Valley obtained and produced food. In the 1980's researchers refined this reconstruction. They analyzed the composition of materials from the original study and newly found environmental samples. The results of the analyses revealed a shift in subsistence patterns over a 9000- year period. Showing inhabitants of the valley shifted from seasonal migration surviving on a diet of plants and some game to a more stable community based on agriculture.
Archaeologists often use what is called a theoretical model and observations of the world as it exists today truing to explain the happenings of the past. Through these models and observations inferred explanations are created. Explanations usually include environmental factors like, population changes, and also patterns of thought and behavior. The difference between reconstructions and explanations are that reconstructions are based on physical remains to create the past, whereas explanations are only attempts to answer questions about the past that cannot be gathered from physical proof.
Like the example of the Tehuacan Valley these changes that took place among the settlement cannot be explained, but there are those who attempt to clarify the possible factors that fit into place with the already existing physical evidence.
By trying to explain the mysteries of the past they have unlocked and gained insights in our own lives. Helping us realize that we are not so different from our ancient ancestors. Like in the times of the Egyptians and the people of Ur. Monumental structures reaching for the heavens were created for religious purposes. This tradition has carried on for thousands of years until present time with our own modern buildings and skyscrapers. Also we are similar in our love for decoration and adornment. Ancient vases were decorated and adorned to appeal to human senses. Just as today in our own society almost all things are used to appeal to the human senses.
It is important to learn about the past and all that can be derived from the small bits and pieces left behind. It should always be remembered that no matter how small the fragment much can be learned from it and applied to these three main goals. Each miserable scrap could become the most important missing link to the puzzle left to us to piece together. Through the use of these three main goals, chronology, reconstruction and explanation we are better able to understand ancient civilizations and in exchange better understand our own lives in the process.

Gothic rock (även goth rock, goth och på svenska depprock eller svartrockHD: Svensk svartrock ska fram i ljuset) är en musikgenre inom rocken med ursprung i det sena 1970-talet. Först sattes etiketten gothic rock på handfull punk- och postpunkgrupper, men i början av 1980-talet utkristalliserades en separat riktning. I kontrast till den aggressiva punken utmärkte sig de tidiga gothic rock-banden av en mer introspektiv, mörk tematik med intellektuella influenser från skräckromantik, romantiken, existentialismen och nihilismen. Några viktiga band är Siouxsie and the Banshees, Joy Division, The Cure, Bauhaus, Birthday Party, Killing Joke, Sisters of Mercy och Fields of the Nephilim.

Under 1980-talet uppkom en bredare subkultur ur gothic rock kallad goth som omfattar såväl musik som mode.

Can an Annuity Be Set Up to Go to Your Children at Your Death?
By: Richard Asmus
1. What Is a Contingent Annuitant?
2. How do I Calculate Retirement Annuities?
3. How Does a Joint and Survivor Annuity Work?
Annuities are primarily used as a means of securing a steady cash flow during your retirement. If you're worried about what will happen to the money in an annuity if you die, you can set it up with your children as beneficiaries who will then receive the money. Many insurance companies offer annuities and the beneficiary setup process is the same. Payout procedures may vary with the annuity.
Annuity Setup
To name your children as beneficiaries of an annuity when setting it up, fill in their names on the form provided by the insurance company or financial institution offering the annuity contract. Some annuities allow you to include the percentages of distribution you desire -- divide the annuity evenly between your children or designate different amounts for each child. In most cases, you can change the beneficiary options later if your family conditions change. Most annuities give you payout options of a lump sum or periodic payments when you retire. The annuity may also give your beneficiaries an option to change the payout conditions when you die.
Die Before Retirement
You might still be making payments into the annuity if you die before you retire. Your beneficiaries, in turn, might have the option to withdraw the accumulated balance or to continue making the payments and roll the sum into new annuities for their own retirement plans. The setup options vary with the insurance company or financial institution. Check with your agent for the exact options available when you set up your annuity.
Die After Retirement
You might be receiving payments from the annuity, have chosen to start the payments or to receive a lump sum at a later date if you die after retirement. No matter how the annuity payments are designated to you prior to death, the remaining accumulated balance belongs to the annuity's beneficiaries. Depending on the conditions of the annuity, the beneficiaries may receive the money as a lump sum or as periodic payments. They may also have the same rollover options available if you had died before retirement.
Contingent Beneficiaries
The primary beneficiaries you name on an annuity contract or application form are the persons who will receive the money when you die. Naming a contingent beneficiary gives instructions on who to give the money to if your primary beneficiary dies before or at the same time you do, such as in an automobile accident. Additional beneficiaries may be added to cover the case of the contingent beneficiaries dying also.

According to Bishop George Bloomer, (Author, National Televangelist, and International Lecturer from Durham, North Carolina), "I Am Prophecy is one of the most comprehensive, well-written, insightful teachings for this millennial generation. The hidden core mysteries of the prophetic, which includes character, integrity, intact-fullness, and God's grace, are all unraveled. With the recalcitrant operations of 'Witchcraft in the Pews,' it's going to take true prophetic comprehension and divine power with God to eradicate the works of Satan. Are you ready to accept that you are Prophecy?" The revelation that God has downloaded through Prophet Orin Perry in this book will dismantle satanic strongholds and give insight to the hidden places of the prophetic.
Contact: Orin Perry Ministries, 252-518-1918, [email protected]
According to Prophet Perry, "I Am Prophecy Prophetic Preliminaries enlightens the reader by strategically expounding on laws, supernatural legislations, and divine policies of the supernatural that must be kept in order to function in God's divine grace in the prophetic ministry."

©2015 The Dannon Company, Inc. All rights reserved. Consult your Healthcare Professional to learn how the foods within this roadmap can be included as part of a balanced diet.
The American Diabetes Association reminds us that, as with all foods, you need to work them into your individualized meal plan in appropriate portions.1 All of the foods noted as Smart Picks on this roadmap provide key nutrients that are typically low in the American diet, including calcium, potassium, fiber, magnesium and vitamins A, C, D and E.
What's a Diabetes Smart Pick?
As part of your balanced, carb-conscious lifestyle, you deserve a delicious, convenient and nutrient-dense snack. A light, nonfat yogurt or Greek yogurt can provide the irresistible, fresh and creamy taste you're looking for, along with the nutrition you can feel good about. It also makes a great addition to your cooking routine, in both sweet and savory recipes!
Look for flavors you love or try something new during your 12 stops to shop!
#9 dried beans, legumes, peas, lentils, nuts & seeds Best Choice Tip: Try to incorporate beans, legumes, peas and lentils into several meals a week. They are a source of protein and fiber. Just keep in mind that dried beans also count as a starch, so make them count towards your carbohydrate intake.
#8 Milk Best Choice Tip: Choose one cup of fat-free or lowfat milk for 12 grams of carbohydrate, 8 grams of protein and calcium!
#4 Poultry & Meat Best Choice Tip: Choose white meat chicken or turkey breast (without the skin) or lean cuts of meat that are lower in saturated fat.
#3 Fresh Fruit Best Choice Tip: Many fruits contain vitamins, minerals and fiber. They also have carbs, so make sure to count them in your meal plan.
Best Choice Tip: Try to include fish at least two times per week – but skip the breading and frying.
#2 starchy veggies Best Choice Tip: Can provide vitamins, minerals and fiber – but remember keep portions small because these count towards your carbohydrate intake.
#6 Eggs Best Choice Tip: Add variety to your protein choices by scrambling or boiling an egg!
#1 Nonstarchy veggies #12 Beverages #11 spreads & oils Best Choice Tip: Choose vegetable oils or plant-based spreads that have no partially hydrogenated vegetable oils (no trans-fat). Watch portion sizes since all fats are high in calories.
Best Choice Tip: Eat at least 3-5 servings of vegetables a day.

#9 Frijoles secos, leguminosas, guisantes, lentejas, nueces y semillas Un Consejo Saludable: Trata de incorporar frijoles, leguminosas, guisantes y lentejas en varias comidas durante la semana. Estos son una fuente de proteína y fibra. Ten en mente que los frijoles secos también cuentan como almidones, cuéntalos en tu consumo de carbohidratos.
#8 Leche Un Consejo Saludable: ¡Elige un vaso de leche descremada o baja en grasa para obtener 12 gramos de carbohidratos, 8 gramos de proteína y calcio!
#4 Pollo y carne Un Consejo Saludable: Elige carne blanca de pollo o pechuga de pavo (sin la piel) o cortes de carnes que sean bajos en grasa y grasas saturadas.
#6 Huevos Un Consejo Saludable: ¡Varía tu proteína añadiendo un huevo revuelto o duro!
#1 Vegetales sin almidón Un Consejo Saludable: Come por lo menos 3 – 5 porciones de vegetales al día.
#12 Bebidas #11 Untables y aceites Un Consejo Saludable: Elige aceites vegetales o untables de origen vegetal que no contengan grasas parcialmente hidrogenadas (cero grasas trans). Vigila el tamaño de la porción, ya que todas las grasas son altas en calorías.

Poems by the late Maningning Miclat were adapted into song for a concert titled Ginugunita Kita.
World premiere of "Ginugunita Kita" performed by Banaue Miclat-Janssen and composer Jesse Lucas.
"Originally, we just wanted to stage a concert, but this show turned out to be more than that. It has evolved into a performing art that explored the possibilities of fusing words, music, songs, dance, and rites of passage," said director Roeder Camanag. Camanag is a friend of the Miclat family and was an often-present guest at Maningning's poetry readings.
Published in 2000 after Maningning had passed away, Voice from the Underworld was considered as a sign of farewell from Maningning. Banaue disclosed that she had not read the book for personal reasons, until Lucas came up with the project and she found herself immersed in interpreting her older sister's collection of poems.
Taking on a project that hit close to home was a healing journey for Banaue. She feared she might go to a dark place in the making of the project. However, Camanag helped her to see Maningning's poems in a positive light, and she believes they communicate her sister's well-being in the afterlife. Lucas himself felt a connection with the text since first reading it and he found it easy to turn them into songs.
Maningning Miclat wore several hats as a published author, multilingual poet, award-winning artist, interpreter, and art teacher at Far Eastern University. She passed away in 2000 at the tender age of 28. Alma Miclat, her mother and founder of the Maningning Miclat Foundation, was asked about how she would like the young generation to remember Maningning. She said she hoped her daughter would be remembered for being a talented artist and teacher. She explained that this was the reason why they held poetry contests and art contests over the years. The foundation, now on its 14th year, has kept the memory of Maningning alive though these contests.
The eight songs performed at the gala premiere of Ginugunita Kita also included "Tawag," "Kulay sa Bagyo," "Ang Naliligaw," "A Stare," and "Verse # 2." The next run of Ginugunita Kita is expected to take place in July.


Resort, backcountry... you ride wherever the snow's best, and the Plum Eterlou Splitboad Binding is strapped to your boot no matter which side of the rope you're on. Out of all the new splitboard bindings from Plum, the Eterlou is by far the most versatile option for the boarder without boundaries. It even has similar functionality as traditional snowboard bindings to provide an easier interface for beginners in the backcountry.
Despite its similar functionality, the Eterlou is certainly more effective out of the resort than in. Its walk mode includes two heel risers to assist you on steeper ascents. Plum uses the same quick-and-easy interface as Voile to quicken transitions from walk to ride. The Eterlou is also compatible with Plum's splitboard crampons for steep and icy tours.
Apart from those backcountry-specific features, the Eterlou feels as rigorous and comfortable as regular snowboard bindings. Its highback and ankle strap are fully padded, which is uncommon in splitboard bindings, and the toe strap locks you into the solid, surprisingly light aluminum baseplate for a stiff ride wherever you roam.


my flurry of blogging in october has subsided a bit. don't know why. apologies to my devoted readers.
this weekend i have done a bit of puttering around the apartment doing things i wanted to do 6 weeks ago. (weird that it's only been 6 weeks in the apt. amie asked yesterday and i was ready to say 2.5 months.) gave the bathtub the scrubbing of its life and then hung up the new shower curtain (it's "ivory"). for inspiration, i listened to no strings attached by my second fav. boy band (#1 = nkotb), *nsync. i find pop music from the 90s is the perfect soundtrack for cleaning. just bring the stereo's remote with you and skip the ballads. you will kiss the grime bye bye bye. yes. i just said that. and meant it.
this morning i attacked Front Right Burner. former tenants of the apt had covered the burner trays (you know the bit under the element) with aluminium foil, presumably so if something dribbled, they'd just switch up the foil and not have any scrubbing to do. (if anyone knows why else you'd cover perfectly attractive burner trays with foil, please let me know.) so now eons later, the foil is crazy — crunchy, bubbly, adhered to the tray like a skin graft. and in the case of Front Right Burner, ready to catch fire. Turn that burner on and that "foil" smokes like a mofo. I wouldn't call myself an expert in fire hazards but this is one I can identify. No longer. Now it's sparkling and foil-free and the proudest Front Right Burner on King East.
and in other this-week-in-the-apt news, every morning i've added cinnamon to the coffee in the grand tradition of erin, kate, and heidi. it's vair tasty and worth it, despite the fact that cinnamon does not lend itself to tidy percolation.
the TPL has lent me the once more with feeling soundtrack and i just can't stop listening to "The Parking Ticket." so we'll end with a bit of Buffy dialogue, one of Russ's favourites, in honour of dirt.
WILLOW: It's magic. I'm drawing power from the earth to heal myself.
BUFFY: We're on the second floor.
WILLOW: You know Giles says everything's part of the earth. This bed. The air. Us.
BUFFY: Explains why my fingernails get dirty even when I don't do anything.
I clean to the Pet Shop Boys. But then, I also write all my grad school papers to the Pet Shop Boys. I'd have to say that The Backstreet Boys are second to NKOTB for me. ("All good people can'tyousee, can'tyousee/How your love's affecting our real-a-tee")And try TSP on your burners. I was chiselling a quarter inch of grease from the kitchen countertops and stove my condo's previous owner left behind, until I discovered TSP. It was like, just swipe, and wipe! Magic. Except I then went and changed my kitchen and all the appliances. But it worked in the bathroom on his tile scum too.

While every house in Slovenia has a civic address, many houses also carry a household name. These names are how other people typically refer to that family. This house carries the name of Čurinovi. At this, we are unsure of where this name originated.

The Toyota GR Corolla Is A Mean-Looking High-Performance Hatchback
Carlsbad, California (CNN Business) The Toyota Corolla became world's best-selling car mostly because it's inexpensive, efficient and practical. Exciting? Maybe not that.
Over the decades — the Corolla model has been in production since 1966 — there have been some fun, high-performance versions of the compact car, though. On Thursday night in Long Beach, California, Toyota revealed the latest, the GR Corolla. With all-wheel-drive and a 300-horsepower turbocharged 3-cylinder engine, the GR is far more powerful than the standard, front-wheel-drive Corolla hatchback.
Toyota does already offer the Corolla Apex sedan which has lower, stiffer suspension and an optional manual transmission, but with an engine that produces no more power than that of a regular Corolla. The GR Corolla is a much more serious attempt at a performance car.
Also, it's is only available with one transmission choice, a six speed manual. No automatic transmission of any kind is offered on the car. Manual transmissions are hard to find in cars today, and many drivers, particularly in America, don't even know how to operate them.
GR stands for Gazoo Racing, Toyota's racing team. Toyota president Akio Toyoda, an avid racing driver, was directly involved in the development of the car, according to Toyota. It's also part of the name of the Toyota GR Supra, the two-seater sports car Toyota developed with BMW.
The GR Corolla has a variable all-wheel-drive system that allows the driver to select how much power goes to the back or the front wheels. It can send as much as 60% of the power to the front wheels or 70% to the rear, allowing the driver a high degree of control over the car's handling.
The car's front and rear fenders extend out from the body giving the car a wide stance for improved handling and allowing for wide performance tires. The roof is made from carbon fiber to reduce weight and lower the car's center of gravity. The hood and front doors are made from aluminum. Vents on the hood, front fenders and rear bumper allow air to pass through the car's body reducing aerodynamic drag. In the back, it has three exhaust pipes.
The GR Corolla will be built at a special GR production facility in Motomachi, Japan. Toyota also makes the GR Yaris there, a subcompact performance model not sold in the US but which has a version of the same 3-cylinder engine. The engine in the GR Yaris produces slightly less horsepower.
The performance compact car segment has seen competitors, like the Ford Focus RS, come and go in recent years, but there are still popular entries like the Volkswagen Golf R and the Honda Civic Type R. This type of car has its roots in rally racing, races run on twisty roads and sometimes on dirt roads where traction and agility are paramount. The GR Corolla's four-wheel-drive system was developed in and for rally races, according to Toyota.
The GR Corolla will initially be available in two versions. The base version will be called Core, and a better equipped Circuit Edition will be offered during the first year of production, which is slated to start later this year. Toyota has not yet announced pricing for the car.

ASA Ruling on Licensed Taxi Drivers Association Ltd t/a LTDA
Licensed Taxi Drivers Association Ltd
A radio ad for the Licensed Taxi Drivers Association, heard 9 July 2020, featured the voice of a woman speaking with the sound of a taxi in the background. The woman stated, "Me, I'm no different to anyone else right now. I'm concerned about my well-being so I always hail a black London cab. The permanent screen keeps me divided from the driver, it's like being in my own bubble back here. Sat on the back seat, they're over two metres from me. And with contactless payments, it's even safer. I'm a black cab customer and I'm confident I'm safe. Oh, just here please."
The complainant, who believed the ad exaggerated the ways in which the features of London black cabs could prevent the spread of COVID-19, challenged whether the ad was misleading.
The Licensed Taxi Drivers Association (LTDA) said that in a London black cab there was a partition between driver and passengers and that, when there were gaps in the partition, it was possible to seal them. They said that there was a distance of two metres, with the partition between driver and passengers. The LTDA said that the interior was made from hard and easy to clean plastics which were cleaned between rides. They said that there were separate air systems in the front and back of the taxi. Radiocentre provided details with the internal dimensions of three models of London black cab.
The ad referenced the ways in which the features of a London black cab were suited to preventing the spread of COVID-19, in particular by limiting contact with the driver. The ad stated that "The permanent screen keeps me divided from the driver, it's like being in my own bubble back here. Sat on the back seat, they're over two metres from me". The ad also stated "And with contactless payments, it's even safer. I'm a black cab customer and I'm confident I'm safe", and referenced how the features of a London black cab addressed concerns about a customer's well-being: "I'm concerned about my well-being so I always hail a black London cab".
The ASA considered consumers would understand from the ad that a passenger sat on the backseat of a London black cab could expect to be over two metres from the driver. We also considered that, in the context of the existing COVID-19 pandemic, the reference to being "divided from the driver" and "in my own bubble" would be understood as an indication that there would be complete separation from passenger and driver. We considered most consumers would recognise that a range of Government recommended safety behaviours were important to help minimise their risk of contracting COVID-19, and that the risk of contracting COVID-19 when taking a London black cab could not be negated entirely. However, we considered consumers would understand from the ad that while using any London black cab, they could sit completely separate, and over two metres, from the driver. We assessed the features of London black cabs.
The internal dimensions showed that in two of the three models there was a distance of exactly two metres or more between the driver and passengers sat on either side of the taxi's backseat. However, the third model showed that the distance was either two metres or less. We were therefore concerned that it was not always possible to sit "over" two metres from the driver in the way the ad claimed.
We understood that a partition screen between driver and passengers was present in London black cabs and that, where a screen had gaps, it was possible to install an additional seal to further restrict airflow between the two sections of the taxi. However, guidance from Transport for London stated that, while it was possible that partitions may reduce the risk of transmission of infection, the risk would not be eliminated entirely. We also understood that there was no requirement on drivers to install the additional seal. We therefore considered it would not always be possible to sit in a "bubble" completely separated from the driver, as implied by the ad. We acknowledged that the intention of the advertiser was to highlight particular features that were distinct to London black cabs and which might be particularly attractive to consumers in the context of COVID-19 and recognised that these features would have some protective benefits to passengers sitting in the back of a cab. Because on some back seats in London black cabs, passengers would not be "over" two metres from the driver or guaranteed to be completely separated from the driver, we therefore considered the ad exaggerated the extent to which features of a London black cab would reduce the spread of COVID-19 and was therefore misleading.
The ad breached BCAP Code rules 3.1 3.1 The standards objectives, insofar as they relate to advertising, include:
a) that persons under the age of 18 are protected;
b) that material likely to encourage or incite the commission of crime or lead to disorder is not included in television and radio services;
c) that the proper degree of responsibility is exercised with respect to the content of programmes which are religious programmes;
d) that generally accepted standards are applied to the contents of television and radio services so as to provide adequate protection for members of the public from inclusion in such services of offensive and harmful material;
e) that the inclusion of advertising which may be misleading, harmful or offensive in television and radio services is prevented;
f) that the international obligations of the United Kingdom with respect to advertising included in television and radio services are complied with [in particular in respect of television those obligations set out in Articles 3b, 3e,10, 14, 15, 19, 20 and 22 of Directive 89/552/EEC (the Audi Visual Media Services Directive)];
g) that there is no use of techniques which exploit the possibility of conveying a message to viewers or listeners, or of otherwise influencing their minds, without their being aware, or fully aware, of what has occurred"
Section 3.9 3.9 Broadcasters must hold documentary evidence to prove claims that the audience is likely to regard as objective and that are capable of objective substantiation. The ASA may regard claims as misleading in the absence of adequate substantiation. 2). (Misleading advertising), 3.9 3.9 Broadcasters must hold documentary evidence to prove claims that the audience is likely to regard as objective and that are capable of objective substantiation. The ASA may regard claims as misleading in the absence of adequate substantiation. (Substantiation) and 3.12 3.12 Advertisements must not mislead by exaggerating the capability or performance of a product or service. (Exaggeration).
The ad must not appear again in the form complained about. We told the Licensed Taxi Drivers Association not to exaggerate the extent to which features of a London black cab could reduce the spread of COVID-19.

Taking the Michael
Did it matter that it wasn't the actual Jacko on the Phil stage at the weekend? Not a bit, says Ben Patey who joined the Thriller seekers
Published on May 21st 2007.
SURE, it may not have been the real Michael Jackson performing but, still, only in Liverpool would someone show their appreciation of a breathtaking rendition of Billie Jean by shouting "Go on lad," and sending the packed Philharmonic Hall into stitches.
Thriller Live was billed as a celebration of the work of Michael Jackson and The Jackson 5. It didn't disappoint.
Only in Liverpool would someone show their appreciation of a breathtaking rendition of Billie Jean by shouting "Go on lad"
Over 40 performers, including a full company of West End singers, a gospel choir and dancers, took the audience on a magical journey of hits, onto Jacko's seminal Off The Wall record before bounding through Bad, Thriller, Dangerous and Blood On The Dancefloor.
A young "Michael Jackson" started the show. It was a little eerie how much he sounded like the real deal as he sang Ben. As I looked around, I noticed at least five people were crying. Only Michael Jackson could have written a song about a rat, and have it nominated for Grammys.
The compere was none other than Jackson's ex choreographer, the former Shalamar singer, Jeffrey Daniel. Daniel's occasional appearances gave the singers and dancers time to change into new outfits and made for an insightful respite from someone who had worked with Jackson for over 20 years. Daniel is also credited with teaching Jackson how to moonwalk.
As we entered the Bad and Thriller years, the audience were treated to several brilliant Jackson look and sound-alikes. The dancing was as you would expect: incredible.
One female singer in particular had caught my eye. It was ironic that my feelings for her gained momentum during the duet; I just can't stop loving you.
By now, the packed out Philharmonic were all on their feet dancing to such classics as Smooth Criminal and Don't Stop Till You Get Enough.
The band seemed effortlessly tight. It was easy to forget that a backing track wasn't being played. The lighting – wonderful. The choreography – dazzling. The multimedia – tremendous. The atmosphere – electrifying. It was going to be difficult not to go into adjective overdrive.
During Earth Song, there were three different Michael Jacksons on stage at one point, as well as a gospel choir and a backdrop of the video.
I started to ponder…. How many pop singers would be having a night dedicated to their hits at the Phil in 20 years time? Justin Timberlake perhaps? Not a chance. Nobody comes close.
Forget the bizarre persona and the allegations...tonight was all about the music of, quite simply, the most outrageously talented performer ever to live. I think Wacko himself would have given the one-gloved thumbs up to the performances of those at The Philharmonic. I'm convinced there'd still be those shouting for an encore now given the chance.
Young, old, scally and otherwise had come to celebrate the work of a musical genius, the likes of which we may never see again.

Bananas were brought out of their original territories in India and South East Asia to Asia Minor and then on to Africa, starting about 327 BC. They came to Central and North America by way of explorers and missionaries through the Caribbean, where mass production began in 1834.
Bananas are a good source of several nutrients, such as potassium and magnesium, Vitamins B6 and C, as well as fiber and antioxidants. The pectin found in bananas provides structural form. Test results have suggested that pectins might provide protection against colon cancer.
About 75% of a fresh banana's weight is water. Dehydrated bananas lose about 96% of this water content, which means that ounce for ounce, they become a far more concentrated source of nutrients, with the exception of Vitamin C (especially sensitive to heat, and water soluble).
Pectin and pectic-oligosaccharides induce apoptosis in in vitro human colonic adenocarcinoma cells.

BNSF update to derailment near Doon, Iowa
Officials revised downward the amount of oil spilled during the June 22 derailment near Doon, Iowa, and now believe approximately 160,000 gallons spilled from 10 of 32 derailed tank cars. BNSF Railway initially reported 14 cars were breached, spilling an estimated 230,000 gallons. The new numbers were determined following detailed inspections after the cars were moved from the derailment site.
Most of the spill was contained to a small triangular area between BNSF tracks, Garfield Avenue and 270th Street; however, there is some impact to adjacent agriculture fields. Hazardous materials and environmental experts expect restoration to conclude this fall. Ongoing drinking water sampling, approved by the incident Unified Command, including the EPA and Iowa Department of Natural Resources, indicates that the spill has not impacted drinking water.
BNSF regrets the inconvenience the incident caused local communities and we remain committed to working with those impacted, as well as local officials, in cleaning up this site. BNSF has established a claims hotline number for area residents and landowners at 866-243-4784.

HUD AWARDS $160 MILLION TO 5 COMMUNITIES TO REVITALIZE HOUSING, INVEST IN NEIGHBORHOODS
WASHINGTON - U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Marcia L. Fudge on Wednesday announced that five communities have received a combined $160 million to redevelop severely distressed housing and spur comprehensive revitalization under the federal Choice Neighborhoods Initiative.
HUD has named Camden, New Jersey; Cleveland, Ohio; Detroit, Michigan; Fort Myers, Florida; and Lewiston, Maine as this year's grant winners.
"Since its creation, the Choice Neighborhoods initiative has transformed communities across the nation," said Secretary Fudge. "Today's announcement will support local vision for reinvigorating low-income communities into areas of opportunity-whether it be with regard to housing, health, education, childcare, or jobs. I applaud each of the five communities for their commitment to ensuring affordable housing serves as a platform for community innovation and individual advancement."
The Choice Neighborhoods initiative supports the revitalization of communities through an emphasis on linking housing improvements with comprehensive social services and physical neighborhood improvements. Local leaders, residents, and stakeholders, such as public housing authorities, cities, schools, police, business owners, nonprofits, and private developers, come together to create and implement a plan that revitalizes distressed HUD-assisted housing and addresses the challenges in the surrounding neighborhood. This year's awardees were selected from a pool of 20 applications.
Choice Neighborhoods is focused on three core goals:
Housing: Replace distressed public and assisted housing with high-quality mixed-income housing that is well-managed and responsive to the needs of the surrounding neighborhood;
People: Improve outcomes of households living in the target housing related to employment and income, health, and children's education; and
Neighborhood: Create the conditions necessary for public and private reinvestment in distressed neighborhoods to offer the kinds of amenities and assets, including safety, good schools, and commercial activity, that are important to families' choices about their community.
The five awardees will create nearly 2,700 new mixed-income housing units as part of their efforts to revitalize their neighborhoods. Based on information provided in each community's application, for every $1 in Choice Neighborhoods funding, the awardees will leverage an additional $10.60 in public and private resources for their project proposals.

No Wonder Brendan Walked Away From The BBC. He's Been Asked The Same Question For Two Years.
Brendan Rodgers walked out of a BBC interview yesterday for reasons that are obvious; he is sick and tired of having to answer the same question over and over again, and he's been getting that question relentlessly, endlessly, on a loop, for the past two years.
This is the question, stripped of all finesse; "When are you leaving Celtic?"
Once upon a time, they asked that question in the context of bigger clubs than now.
Once they said he would only have left Parkhead for a top six team; Arsenal, City, United, Liverpool, Chelsea or Spurs.
That seems like a logical progression, being that he's already been at one of those clubs and has admirers at Stamford Bridge and White Hart Lane.
But there have been high profile vacancies at three of those clubs – Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea – since he came to Parkhead; he was briefly linked with all of them. The Arsenal one was a particular favourite because the media got all excited when our majority shareholder seemed to suggest that it might be a goer; as I said at the time, all Dermot Desmond was doing was stating club policy and nobody should have been peeing their pants over it.
Club policy remains the same; Brendan can go and talk to whoever he wants.
We don't try to keep managers who want to leave any more than we would try to keep a player on the books who wanted to go. I disagree with elements of that policy, but at its core I get it because I want nobody at the club who hasn't got a commitment to the club.
The media no longer thinks Brendan would only leave for one of those sides, which is handy as he told them he wasn't even interested in a move to Arsenal when that arose. But since then he has been linked with every job in that league, and it hasn't even mattered if the job was available or not. It reeks of a certain desperation in our media class … a desperation to see the back of the manager who has turned us into one of the most dominant domestic teams in the history of the game here.
And that's what this is about, and it's all that it's about. Leicester City is a managerial graveyard; indeed, so is much of the EPL, as Rodgers already knows by the way. And the truth, he has turned down better jobs than Leicester between leaving Liverpool and now.
And with the offer from China in the summer a known fact he's also turned down more money.
Am I saying that he'll stay no matter where the interest comes from?
No, because if a top six club made their move there'd be a decision to make and he'd have to make it. But I really don't see what the decision is here. We offer him more than Leicester City ever will in terms of where he wants to be in the game, and he knows what's right around the corner at Celtic.
Imagine you're Brendan Rodgers, struggling to hold onto your job at an EPL scrapper on the day Celtic clinches ten in a row and another manager takes that coveted place in our pantheon of heroes. You tell me; how are you going to feel?
Like you made the right call, or will that forever be a regret?
Nine in a row equals Jock's record.
Ten is a page in history all of your own.
Brendan is one of us; could any one of us turn down the opportunity that he has right now? Even for a Manchester United or Tottenham? That league will be there, waiting for him, in two years come what may, and if he goes at the end of that road then a big piece of Paradise will forever belong to him, as it does to the Lions and the other iconic figures, and that guarantees him immortality no matter what happens to his career elsewhere.
This guy is pig-sick of certain aspects of Scottish football, but it's not being a winner that bothers him it's the stalkers in the press box who chart his every move and are forever flinging these ridiculous questions at him. And why only Brendan? Is he the only sought after manager in the league here or what? Why isn't a certain other person who's allegedly turned off-brand generic cola into Classic Coke being touted for the big move to the top table?
And no, I don't mean Steve Clarke of course.
But you know what? I guess it's just possible that he's angry enough at certain people inside the club and the restrictions they've placed on him that he could be contemplating anything.
But again. Leicester?
In that scenario, I suggest he considers media reports from today that they might offer the job to Neil Lennon on a temporary basis; this is another ex-Celtic manager we're talking about here, and the idea that he'd be given a shot as caretaker whilst they wait for the man they really want tells you everything you need to know about their absolute disrespect for this league, for this club and for managers in general. Lennon would be crazy to do it.
The old wisdom says that the game has two types of managers; those who have been sacked and those who will be. Brendan's tasted it once, at Anfield … if he fancies a job at a regional Kilmarnock with less tolerance and patience than the Rugby Park board he should go right ahead and set up his interview, and end the uncertainty once and for all.
But like I said earlier, in two years' time, when another Celtic boss is holding the SPL trophy as the triumphant conqueror who made it ten in a row, you have to wonder where Brendan Rodgers would be. Not challenging for a title or even Europe, I'd wager.
It's a dead end shift, if it's a challenge it's one on the level of climbing Everest without oxygen.
It's for the crazy brave or the mugs.
Brendan is certainly no mug, so unless he's crazy I think you can count this one out.
Yeah, no wonder he walked away from the BBC yesterday … the question is an insult, and not just to Celtic.
