Clinton announces dawn of 'smart power'
America will now exercise its muscle abroad according to the facts not emotion, Hillary Clinton tells the Senate
Wednesday 14 January 2009 01:00
Hillary Clinton served notice at her much-anticipated Senate confirmation hearing that as the next Secretary of State she would cast aside an era of "rigid ideology" in American diplomacy to guide a foreign policy of "smart power" based on a marriage of principle and pragmatism.
Making little secret of her belief that America's global standing has been harmed by the foreign policy priorities of the administration of President George Bush, Mrs Clinton said she would make decisions based "on facts and evidence, not emotions or prejudice". She was accompanied to yesterday's hearing by her daughter, Chelsea.
While concerns were raised by some of the senators about foreign governments or individuals attempting to purchase influence with Mrs Clinton by donating funds to the charitable foundation and library of her husband, the former President Bill Clinton, the atmosphere in the hearing was hardly confrontational. Members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee are likely to vote to confirm Mrs Clinton in the job as early as tomorrow.
Among senators paying Mrs Clinton generous praise was the committee chairman, John Kerry. "She will take office on a first-name basis with numerous heads of state and also with billions of people in every corner of the globe," he noted. "Her presence will send a strong signal overseas immediately that America is back."
Republicans chimed in with words that added to the impression that Mrs Clinton will sail into the job without controversy. "She is fully prepared to engage the world on a myriad of issues that urgently require attention," remarked Senator Richard Lugar, the most senior Republican on the committee.
Of all Barack Obama's cabinet picks, none have elicited more excitement than his selection of Mrs Clinton as America's top diplomat. The two fought each other to exhaustion and beyond during the primary season for the presidential nomination and during the struggle Mrs Clinton repeatedly scorned Mr Obama for his relative lack of experience in foreign affairs, notably with her hard-hitting TV advert asking whether Americans wouldn't be more comfortable with her answering 3am crisis calls.
As Secretary of State, the task of tackling those crises will fall primarily on Mrs Clinton. And she gave an impressive display of knowledge on issues ranging from the nuclear stand-off with Iran to violence in the Middle East and relations with China and Russia.
As foreign ministries around the world scoured her statement and answers for clues as to what they might expect from a Clinton State Department, some brows may have furrowed in London over a line suggesting that in Europe, Britain may not always be the first country she turns to.
"The new administration will reach out across the Atlantic to leaders in France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and others, including the new democracies," she said. "When America and Europe work together, global objectives are well within our means."
Underscoring the conflict of interest risks regarding Mr Clinton's foundation, which works notably to combat HIV-Aids in Africa and promote action to curb global warming, Mr Lugar said it would have to stop taking donations from foreign sources if Mrs Clinton serves as Secretary of State.
"Foreign governments and entities may perceive the Clinton Foundation as a means to gain favour with the Secretary of State," Senator Lugar declared. "Every new foreign donation accepted by the foundation comes with the risk that it will be connected in the global media to a proximate State Department policy or decision."
Some of Mrs Clinton's remarks reflected promises made by Mr Obama during the election campaign. She reminded them that she and the President-elect were "committed to responsibly ending the war in Iraq and employing a broad strategy in Afghanistan that reduces threats to our safety."
She promised a State Department "firing on all cylinders to provide forward-thinking, sustained diplomacy in every part of the world". She added that the new administration would seek to re-energise peace efforts in the Middle East and spoke about Gaza.
"The President-elect and I are deeply sympathetic to Israel's desire to defend itself and to be free of shelling by Hamas rockets," Mrs Clinton told the hearing. "However, we have been reminded of the tragic humanitarian costs of conflict in the Middle East and pained by the suffering of civilians."
Clinton takes a view on her in-tray
What she says:
"A just and lasting peace agreement" that brings "real security to Israel; normal and positive relations with its neighbours; and independence, economic progress, and security to the Palestinians in their own state... We cannot negotiate with Hamas until it recognises Israel, renouncesviolence and agrees to abide by previous agreements."
What she means:
Don't expect much change from Bush but new emphasis on "constructive role" by Iran and Syria.
"We will pursue a new,different approach... [US policy will be] to do everything we can to prevent Iranfrom becoming a nuclear weapon state. As I also said, no option is off the table."
New approach will emerge from policy review, but behind the rhetoric, the bottom line on possible military action is the same as Bush.
"There is a great need forus to sound the alarm again about Darfur. It is a terrible humanitarian crisis compounded by a corrupt and very cruel regime."
Could be a toughening of US position after policy review.

(Arizona Dept. of Public Safety)
PINAL COUNTY, Ariz. – Arizona authorities arrested five men accused of trying to lure children for sex after a monthslong investigation dubbed "Operation Home Alone 2," according to a statement from the Arizona Department of Public Safety.
The AZDPS led the joint sting operation in Pinal County, during which investigators teamed with local, state and federal agencies to catch sexual predators trying to lure underage children.
Between August 26 and Sept. 3, authorities arrested the following Maricopa men on one charge each of luring a minor for exploitation: 40-year-old Daniel May, 38-year-old Matthew Salley and 26-year-old Jordan Holloway.

Ryan Kellerman, also of Maricopa, faces charges of aggravated luring of a minor for sexual exploitation and furnishing harmful items to a minor. Kellerman is also a suspect in a child pornography case with the Maricopa Police Department.
The final suspect, 44-year-old Phoenix man Christopher Butts, faces charges of aggravated luring of a minor for sexual exploitation and furnishing harmful items to a minor.
Butts, who used to work as a Maricopa County Sheriff's Office detective, was out on parole after a February 2020 arrest for the same charges, according to the AZDPS.
Officials say the investigation is ongoing and additional arrests are pending.

Indeed, the oldest levels on my site were released in late 2001, now going on ten years ago. I had just graduated from high school that spring and, with the assistance of a two week post-graduation LAN party celebration in my parents' basement, shifted into a mostly nocturnal level-building frenzy.
I built and released five levels that summer – Zeta Sector, Phreneticism, Sector A, and Repair Bay 4 for Half-Life deathmatch, and Wormhole for Opposing Force CTF. I also began to involve myself in community sites like the original Snark Pit and the late Valve ERC. I met fellow aspiring designers who would become friends and future colleagues, many of whom I keep in touch with to this day. My CTF level, Wormhole, found its way into the rotation on Gearbox Software's official server and I found myself receiving feedback from developers at a studio where I would end up working 6 years later.
Of all the levels I released in 2001, the most important was my first – "Planet Half-Life HQ," released in January. Planet Half-Life, then one of the central sites of the community, started a map contest in late 2000. The top ten entries would be combined into a PHL map pack for release after the contest's completion. I got the wacky idea to try my hand at a submission of my own.

Q: Return to Main Image So I have a little javascript code that swaps my main image on hover of the thumbnails that works perfectly well! is their a way to return to main on hover out I am sure there is a little if statement but i cannot figure it out!

and the javascript is

A:

A: Try this...
$('.products img').mouseover(function() {
//do some action...
},function (){
//undo the action..
});

A: You can achieve this by using hover(). when you move mouse out of it , it restores original state and hovered gives you the required functionality.
So, it is a combination of two functions mouserover() and mouseout()
hope this helps..

A: You can make it in two ways:
1) use jQuery hover hover documentation
$(selector).hover(
    function(){ alert("Hover in"); },
    function(){ alert("Hover out); }
 );

2) use
 with background image and change it on hover with css
#selector{
    background: url('image1.png');
}

#selector:hover{
    background: url('image2.png');
}

World's Largest Meat Company Ends Up Losing USD 11Mn Due to Ransom Attack!
|In News
The recent Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack sent shock waves throughout the energy sector for it crippled fuel delivery along the southeast USA coastline. Even before the news faded, the world was given another unwanted glimpse into the ransomware world lately.
JBS, the world's largest meat company, paid USD 11 million ransom to cybercriminals who last week breached and encrypted some of its IT systems in the US, Australia, and Canada.
While most of its operations are now back up and running, the Brazilian-based company made the ransom payment to wick off any further disruptions to its meat plants.
"It was very painful to pay the criminals, but we did the right thing for our customers," said Andre Nogueira, CEO of the JBS US division. "The ransom payment, in bitcoin, was made to limit the potential impact on restaurants, food and agricultural companies that rely on JBS."
The cyberattack on the meat giant halted production at plants that process nearly a fifth of the pork and a quarter of the beef produced in the US, escalating meat prices while threatening food supply chains.
The slaughterhouse outages are the latest hit to the meatpacking industry that is already reeling under severe labor shortages and higher commodity prices.
The FBI has attributed the ransomware attack to REvil, a cybercrime group likely based in Russia. However, REvil has not yet claimed credit for the JBS attack.
The attack on JBS sheds light on how cybercriminals have shifted their target from data-rich companies such as BFIs and retailers to essential-service providers like hospitals, food companies, and transport operators.
How the incursion unfolded?
The Brazilian company learned about the breach in the wee hours of the morning on May 30, when IT staff espied functional irregularities in some servers. Later, they found a ransom note from hackers, demanding a multimillion-dollar payment to regain control of the infiltrated systems.
Without further ado, the meat giant started shutting down its operating systems to prevent further intrusions.
Mr. Nogueira said that the company alerted the FBI and roped in cybersecurity experts to conduct forensic analysis of its IT systems. However, it isn't yet clear how the attackers gained access to JBS's systems.
Though the company resumed operations using its secondary backup systems, the security experts didn't rule out the potentiality of a second strike. Left with Hobson's choice, JBS was compelled to pay the ransom.
Defending his decision to pay the ransom, Mr. Nogueira said, "We didn't think we could take this type of risk that something could go wrong in our recovery process. It (ransom) was insurance to protect our customers."
"This was a very difficult decision to make for our company and for me personally. However, we felt this decision had to be made to prevent any potential risk for our customers," informed Nogueira.
Sooner than expected, Mr. Nogueria has declared 'business as usual.'
The biggest meat producer was back in business earlier than envisaged as its backup servers were not affected by the attack.
"The company's swift response, robust IT systems, and encrypted backup servers allowed for a rapid recovery. As a result, we were able to limit the loss of food produced during the attack to less than one days' worth of production," said JBS USA in a press statement.
Fortunately, the attack didn't induce any severe implications as the cybercriminals couldn't access the company's core systems.
"The criminals were never able to access our core systems, which greatly reduced potential impact," stated CEO Nogueira.
However, JBS is not yet aware of any evidence that any customer, supplier, or employee data has been compromised or misused during the incident.

Miami Heat Guard Tyler Herro Deserving of Several Top Awards After Displaying Great Growth
by John Denton twitter on January 13, 2022
Considering how well rising star Tyler Herro has played — especially of late while carrying the Miami Heat during the injury absences of stars Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo — the third-year guard should be in line for some significant hardware this offseason.
Already the heavy favorite to win the league's Sixth Man of the Year award, Herro also deserves to be a first-time All-Star in a month and a strong candidate for the Most Improved Player award later in the spring.
Yep, Herro — who won't turn 22 years old until next week — has been that good for a Miami team that has strangely remained below the radar but keeps rolling even with Butler and Adebayo in street clothes.
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro is quickly becoming a star — even in a reserve role

Herro, the No. 13 pick of the 2019 NBA Draft, showed nice progress in his first two seasons at the NBA level. He poured in 13.5 points on Miami's NBA Finals squad in 2019-20 and then averaged 15.1 points and 3.4 assists a game as a second-year pro.
Herro's star power has shot even higher now — despite being used as a reserve in 25 of his 35 games. At 20.7 points per night, Herro is easily the NBA's top-scoring reserve. However, there is much more to the 6-foot-5, 195-pounder's game — as evidenced by Wednesday's performance against the Atlanta Hawks.
He keyed a second-quarter rally from down double digits by carving up the Hawks shoddy defense for 16 points for eight assists in the first half — the first player to do so in the past 25 years off the bench, according to The Associated Press' Tim Reynolds. He finished with 21 points, a career-best 11 assists, and nine rebounds to narrowly miss posting the first triple-double of his career in another Miami win.
That performance followed what he did in Phoenix a few nights earlier when the Heat smashed the defending champion Suns despite having just a shell of their roster available. Herro poured in 33 points and drilled three of Miami's franchise-record-tying 22 3-pointers.
Herro is doing a little bit of everything this season for the short-handed Miami Heat
List of players with at least 16 points and at least 8 assists in a first half, off the bench, last 25 seasons:
– Tyler Herro, tonight.
End of list.
— Tim Reynolds (@ByTimReynolds) January 13, 2022
Herro's dynamic growth — one that has seen him pair four 30-point performances and 16 20-point efforts with 5.1 rebounds and 4.1 assists a night — is part of his maturation as a third-year pro. Herro's steady level of progression is apparent in his 30-point efforts. He scored 30 in an October game (at Indiana), he poured in 31 in November (at Detroit), he crafted a 32-point night in December (vs. Washington), and his 33-point effort was in January (at Phoenix).
"This is all part of the process," Herro said in his postgame news conference from Saturday in Phoenix. "Teams are guarding me differently, my shots aren't wide-open, and they aren't easy looks, so it's just about finding new ways to attack defenses and get to my spots.
"Then, it's just about being efficient," Herro added. "I take a high number of shots per game, so I'm just trying to be efficient. That's my biggest thing — I hate having those games that I've had in the past and in those three games (previously on the road trip). It's just about sticking with it and learning that everything is a part of the process."
Teammate Kyle Lowry, someone who knows a thing or two about the difficulties of playing point guard, marvels at the rapid progress that Herro has shown this season.
"He's playing with a purpose every time he steps on the floor," Lowry said in Tuesday's postgame news conference. "He knows what he's going to do, and he knows what to do. There's no `ahhhhh' or indecisiveness. There's a purpose to what he's out there to do. And he understands that the game's changing for him. He's getting double-teamed and blitzed, but he's still getting to his spots and making the right plays."
Tyler Herro's growth as a playmaker has made him deserving of multiple top awards
Herro is yet another success story to emerge from the Miami Heat's vaunted player development program, one that helped Dwyane Wade evolve into a superstar. Miami's dynamic reserve guard might be on a similar path considering how his confidence is soaring and his game is blossoming on a nightly basis.
Herro has not only helped keep the injury-depleted Heat afloat, but he has allowed them to thrive despite Jimmy Butler missing big chunks of time with injuries and Bam Adebayo being out since Nov. 29 following thumb surgery. Even with those losses, Miami sits third in the East at 26-15, and it is riding a three-game winning streak and a torrid stretch of eight victories in the past 10 games.
With Herro scoring 20.7 points a night, he should be a lock to become the first Heat player in franchise history to win the NBA's Sixth Man of the Year award. And because he's gotten so much better since last season, he should also be a leading candidate for the NBA's Most Improved Player honor. If he can pull that off, he would be the first since Orlando Magic guard Darrell Armstrong in 1999 to win the Sixth Man of the Year and Most Improved awards in the same season.
The accolades might not stop there for Herro, considering his rapid growth. Eastern Conference coaches would be wise to vote the Miami guard into the NBA All-Star Game, making him the first since Kobe Bryant in 1998 to nab that honor while playing primarily as a reserve.
Herro's contributions and growth are deserving of some significant individual recognition. The ultimate prize, he said, is a championship for the Heat. Herro's development and maturation as a go-to playmaker should only make the Heat a deeper and more dynamic squad once Butler and Adebayo return. That could put Miami in a position to seriously compete with the Brooklyn Nets, Milwaukee Bucks, and Chicago Bulls for supremacy in the Eastern Conference.
"I just want to win a championship," Herro said to the Miami Herald in November about his goals for the season. "Obviously, Sixth Man of the Year, for sure, and Most Improved. I feel like I can compete for those two, for sure."

I had the pleasure of being inspired by Jewel at ISPA 2014. I have to be honest, I didn't expect such a dynamic person to be before us on the stage. Truth be told, Jewel's musical storytelling turned out to be a highlight of the conference. Here's why….
As I waited in my seat for Jewel to take the stage, I was not sure what to expect. I was just guessing she would tell some stories and sing some of her popular songs. Well once the show started, I realized that Jewel is just that….a jewel! I loved her from the moment she came on stage. She was so sweet, funny and endearing. She was humble and thankful of her success. These are all things in my mind that make someone truly memorable.
Who knew she had lived in a car, under a shrub and on the lamb from reality? Who knew her family is the inspiration of Alaska: The Last Frontier? I mean, REALLY? She was a frontier girl that was blessed with the love of her family and an amazing voice.
What Jewel reminded me is that despair and sadness can be turned into hope. They are the perfect fuel for that kind of transformation! You need to stay true to yourself, find and focus on your passions in life and believe that dreams do come true.
But let's not be naive. It's not enough to believe….you must fight for what's right and what you believe in as well as take action in order to make things happen. I encourage anyone reading this to strive to be your very best, inspire those around you, do good things, follow your dreams and live your life with passion. It's the most fulfilling way to live, so why not give it a try? Bonus! We have a New Year approaching, the perfect opportunity to take inventory, make plans and start over.
Once again, the ISPA conference offered so much more than I expected. (Eric Wahl graffiti artist pictured below!) It is really a gem of an event and I encourage you to make plans to attend next year – TODAY. 🙂 The contacts you make, the opportunities to share with fellow spa industry folks, educational takeaways and inspiration make it worth every penny and then some When we take time away from our daily tasks, we find a renewed perspective and infusion of energy, it's priceless.
Often, a few days away is all it takes to give you a fresh outlook on seemingly insurmountable problems in your spa or in your personal life. It is a gift we don't often give to ourselves, yet it benefits so many others as well. It's literally almost selfless to take care of yourself so that you can then take care of those around you. Try it!
We want to inspire you to live your own truth and authentic life both personally and professionally. Share with us your goals for 2015 – business or personal – and be entered to win a one hour life/business coaching session with Julie's own coach who works with Fortune 500 companies and some of the most celebrated spas and resorts in the industry.


FORT RUCKER, Ala. (June 27, 2017) - The Fourth of July is a festive time of year. Many of us get the day off and have cookouts or parties, and some cities and towns hold festivals. Of course, no Independence Day celebration would be complete without a fireworks display. From bottle rockets to Roman candles, fireworks have entertained and captivated our minds since we were small children.
Unfortunately, a lot of folks don't take the major hazards related to fireworks seriously. Some people enjoy lighting firecrackers or cherry bombs and holding them in their hand as long as possible before throwing them - sometimes at each other! People just don't seem to understand what can happen with these unsafe practices.
Many of those who have used fireworks have a close-call story to tell. My father had multiple fireworks incidents when he was younger, but one in particular stands out. When he was 15, he and his friends from the neighborhood decided to take some Roman candles to a nearby field. It was a particularly dry summer that year, and the field had tall grass - up to his knees at some points. So they wouldn't be seen by police, they chose a spot that was out of sight from the road. They lit their Roman candles and started shooting them almost horizontally. Then, as some foolish people do, they started shooting them toward one another.
For about an hour and a half that night, they ran around that field having fun. Then, a scary series of events took place. One of my father's friends had one of the Roman candle's flaming orbs get caught inside his T-shirt sleeve. Almost simultaneously, another friend was struck in the eye by one of the colored fireballs. The two injured teenagers and one other stopped shooting their Roman candles so they could check how badly they were injured. The other three boys, including my father, continued playing.
About 10 minutes later, my father inadvertently shot a few of the orbs into an area of thicker, drier grass. Those two orbs caused the lower portion of the grass to ignite, and, almost instantaneously, the entire corner of the field was on fire. When they saw the blaze, they immediately ran away. The majority of the field eventually ended up burning. Fortunately, no property, other than the empty field, was damaged, and none of them were caught by police. My father and his friends were lucky to escape this near miss. With the fire spreading as quickly as it did, it could've very easily surrounded them, trapping them in the field.
Still, there were some medical consequences to their careless behavior. The young man who had the orb shot up his sleeve had to go to the emergency room with third-degree burns across the underside of his upper arm, along his armpit and down a few inches on the side of his torso. The doctors had to give him skin grafts, and he spent a week in the burn unit to make sure the injury was kept clean. For as long as he and my father kept in contact, he had bad scars all along the grafted areas.
The other young man - the one that was hit in the eye by the orb - also had to go to the emergency room. He suffered permanent damage to his eye and eyelid and had to have surgery that night. Sadly, his eye had sustained too much damage to ever recover, so it had to be removed. It was replaced with a glass eye that he has to live with for the rest of his life. He had to spend two weeks in the hospital recovering from the surgery and the burns to his eyelid.
That night, two people's lives were forever changed. But despite the horrible injuries his friends suffered, my father continued using fireworks unsafely. Eventually, though, he saw the error of his ways.
If you plan to shoot fireworks, please keep my father's story in mind. When used properly, fireworks can add excitement to a celebration. In the hands of the careless, however, the festivities could end badly.
• Always have a garden hose or bucket of water handy.
• Use common sense. Spectators should keep a safe distance from the shooter, and the shooter should wear safety glasses.
• Alcohol and fireworks do not mix. Have a designated shooter.
• Only persons over the age of 12 should be allowed to handle sparklers of any type.
• Never use homemade fireworks or illegal explosives: They can kill you! Report illegal explosives to the fire or police department in your community.

The Albion War Report #6
Valhalla is still alive, Chicken Kiss shows who's boss and find out what tore apart to Red Army and Envy alliance… all in today's Albion War Report!
This news article was automatically parsed from the official Albion Online website.
Posted by Loweeeee (Source)
Valhalla Not Set For the Afterlife Just Yet
As reported in one of our previous War Reports, Valhalla was making a valiant last stand holding on to their last remaining territory. After being forced on to the ropes by Vendetta and parting ways with their allies in the old BIG Alliance, it seemed their days were numbered. Making a complete turnaround, they have been have been heavily on the offensive and have taken a vast array of land in a short amount of time! Now the proud owners of half a dozen territories, their future is looking bright.
"After a month of being trapped on our main plot, we managed to get our GvG teams some great gear and push back Vendetta," said Valhalla's Bacharel. He then added, "we had information that their A team had left the game. In the end, the teams they sent to fight us back could not beat us."
There were rumours recently that perhaps Valhalla were in the process of a merger with Echo of Silence, as they were seemingly doomed. After being dropped from the BIG Alliance, it looked as if they were maybe being left out to dry, but in the end, Valhalla went their own way to pursue their ambitions.
Regarding the relationship that they have with their old allies, Bacharel stated: "Valhalla and EoS have a long dated friendship, but we didn't accept the offer to enter the alliance that is now called Zika because we had a few issues we had to solve first."
Whatever problems they once had, it seems Valhalla has well and truly fixed them. Now standing strong on their own, they most definitely have an iron will and a desire not to be trifled with. What will the future have in store for this 'die-hard' guild?
Chicken Kiss Have the Upper Hand Against War Legend
In the wake of Nilfgaard's departure, War Legend had taken the opportunity to strengthen their footprint on the map. They had successfully taken control of many vacant territories, however a lot of what they had gained initially has been lost to a rampant advance from Chicken Kiss. Many guilds took advantage of the defenceless lands with Gentlemen conquering a couple for themselves and Articulo Mortis has assumed control of the old Nilfgaard base. It will be a real challenge for all these guilds to hold on to their gains though, as this particular region of the Outlands is ever changing and extremely active.
In this chaotic part of the world, War Legend had stood strong since the very start of the test, but their position is now being contested. Chicken Kiss has been going from strength to strength against War Legend, with an almost perfect record of GvGs with their 'A' team.
"The fight against WL has been easy for our main team so far," declared Nipp from Chicken Kiss, showing his delight in their successes this far. He then commented that, "our other teams had some defeats though, but they are still in a learning process. Overall everything goes well for us." This shows that the battle between the two is not one sided in the least, however I believe it is far to say that Chicken Kiss is currently out on top.
To also further cement their position, Chicken Kiss has joined the newly formed Zika Alliance, after the V4 Alliance somewhat ceased to be. "Vendetta went inactive for the most part of the guild" said Nipp before adding, "we wanted to keep playing the game so we allied with Echo of Silence."
Chicken Kiss receives a lot of praise from their previous allies, Vendetta, with Liwi complimenting them exclaiming, "I would like to take advantage of your question to make a real big up to the Vendetta guys as they helped us so much in the beginning of this beta!" When asked about what the future holds for their conflict with War Legend, Liwi stated: "For the future, we can't be sure of anything because it's all about the relationship with them."
So perhaps this means that there is no immediate end to this battle just yet, which is great news for everyone else. We will keep you posted on any future developments regarding this ongoing conflict.
The Spark That Ignited the Feud Between Red Army and Envy
In perhaps one of the most unexpected incidents of this test, Red Army and Envy have went their separate ways after a period of turmoil within their alliance. Oh drama, how we love it here in the Albion Online community! While out in the world, on an alliance-wide operation, Red Army, Envy and War Legend were on the offensive. However, in a series of escalating events, starting from the looting of a corpse by an Envy member who had not participated in the kill, ended in all out war between the alliance members.
Sources from inside the alliance had hinted at deteriorating relations between Envy and Red Army for some time. In one fell swoop, it erupted in a most violent fashion. The island continent of the Outlands was pretty much almost under the full control of the Reign Alliance. In the past couple weeks, the alliance had been having to defend to against many smaller guilds cropping up and settling in on vacant plots. With Exodia delving deep with its advance in the south, things were looking worse for Envy and Red Army before the split.
The map has changed drastically and Red Army now controls the majority of the island with Envy seeking to jump ship to the main Outland continent. This is of course due to the success Red Army has had since the initial breakout of the war and has triumphed over Envy in almost every aspect.
KingMojo from Red Army had this to say regarding the conflict:
"We had hoped Envy would give us good fights like Nilfgaard did. Every fight against Nilfgaard was a bloodbath. However, we found that those two guilds are on different levels. Envy launched attacks but only lasted one day. At this point, we are working on getting them out of our continent completely, where they go next is not our problem."
Clearly, there is some bad blood between the two parties and it does not seem like it will be settling down any time soon. Envy is still holding on to some territories on the island, however their days are numbered.
In the meantime, Envy have chosen to settle near their allies in the Reign Alliance, War Legend, by acquiring two plots in Feral Pound. This will most definitely strengthen the alliance stronghold, with both guilds now being right next to door to each other. However the neighbourhood that they have moved to is pretty crowded with large alliances such as Zika and Only. This will only increase the friction between the various alliances in the area… which is good news as it should bring more death and destruction!

What?!? When!?!: Your Updated Comics Cinema Calendar, Disney Edition: To Infinity, and Beyond!!! – Comics Beat
WOW! Disney is king of the box office, with numerous Billion-Dollar-Blockbusters in their library! Avengers: Endgame is closing on $800 Million domestically, passing Black Panther and Avatar to claim the #2 all-time spot! (Yes, BP made more money last year than Avengers: Infinity War!)
Fans and reporters have been wondering what comes next in what is unofficially "Phase Four" of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. With the recent acquisition of Fox ($71 Billion), fans are especially interested in the Marvel properties that Fox licensed way back in 1994…will we see the X-Men or Fantastic Four in the MCU?
Disney and Marvel have been very secretive about what's coming up, but they recently announced their release schedule all the way through to 2027! But… (or is that "Meanwhile…"?), they left many of the dates blank, using generic titles to stake a claim. If you're a Disney fan, there aren't many surprises… you know there's an MCU movie near FCBD, Star Wars opens right before Christmas, an animated feature gives you an excuse to escape from family during Thanksgiving… If you need a template, just look at 2022:

Early November can also be reserved for a Marvel movie (they do three a year, but it wouldn't surprise me if they upped it to four), and the mid-December slot will alternate between Star Wars and Avatar. (I hereby name that Wednesday "Fox-buster Wednesday", as both franchises were originally distributed by Fox.)
The March date is either a second Pixar movie (June is the anchor), or a live-action adaptation. Zootopia opened on that date in 2016, but it can't support a new film…there have been some clunkers in the past decade! (A Wrinkle in Time, Need for Speed, Muppets Most Wanted, John Carter…)
Here's the upcoming release schedule for Disney, Fox, Marvel, Pixar, Lucasfilm, and related studios, color-coded, followed by my analysis:

Note that August is a desert for movies. Why? Two reasons:
Many families plan their summer vacations in August. When on vacation, people are less likely to spend time in a movie theater. (Unless it's a theme park attraction, like Soarin' Around the World.)
Many school districts now start the school year in the middle of August, so that the year ends before Memorial Day (and to bank against any weather closings).
There is only one Fox Searchlight feature on the schedule: Ready or Not. Jojo Rabbit is scheduled for October 18th, but is not on this schedule, nor on Box Office Mojo's, and that date is taken by the Maleficent sequel. Sure, Disney could release a major movie, and a more arthouse film on the same week, or Disney might be rethinking the date, hoping for some Oscar buzz. The movie is by Taika Waititi, director of Thor: Ragnarok, and stars Scarlett Johansson. Or maybe, given the plot, Disney is rethinking it altogether.
This raises a bigger question: What will Fox produce in the years to come? Will the studio become another Touchstone Pictures, or another Miramax? Disney doesn't do much adult fare now, betting on sure things like tentpole movies and franchises. Disneynature has its niche, producing films with budgets of $5-$10 Million, and that model, along with the new Disney streaming services, could produce cheap films with large returns. Pixar already is producing animated shorts not for feature films, but for YouTube and streaming, and there's lots of fan-favorite series already announced.
Note, in 2020, Marvel Comics will have two consecutive weeks of movies, with The New Mutants on "Avengers Day", and an untitled MCU movie the weekend of Free Comic Book Day.
Of course, Marvel has not yet announced any of their "Phase Four" or "Post-Endgame" movies. Keep an eye peeled…they'll probably stage a fan fest/press conference like they did back in October 2014. NO, I will not speculate on which movies might screen when. Lots of websites did this with the DCEU films back in 2015, and most of those dates vanished into the æthernet, dragging along those sites' credibility. Only when Disney announces set dates and names will these "untitled" movies be replaced.
Blue Sky Studios, best known for the Ice Age franchise, is part of Fox. They have two movies scheduled: Spies in Disguise (based on an animated short film), and Nimona (based on the award-winning graphic novel).
For 2019, that means that Disney could have: Toy Story 4, Spies in Disguise, and Frozen 2 up for Best Animated Feature. (Four movies, if you count the CGI'd The Lion King.) This isn't unusual; 2016 had Zootopia, Finding Dory, and Moana released by Disney. Zootopia won the Oscar, and Moana was nominated.
West Side Story?!? Directed by Steven Spielberg?! Yeah, Broadway has numerous revivals, even giving out Tonys for Best Revival, but in cinema? Remaking a film that won ten Academy Awards?! I'll wait and see… The charm of the original movie was that it was shot ON LOCATION, in Lincoln Square. It's a period piece, starting with that marvelous aerial tour of New York City.
The February/March Marvel movies are a new ripple in the calendar. Previous movies in this slot have been Winter Soldier (2014), Black Panther, and Captain Marvel. Marvel didn't have a tentpole in May 2014 (that was The Amazing Spider-Man 2). With Black Panther and Captain Marvel, Disney has realized that the early MCU movies create buzz for the Avengers movies opening in late April, AND that those movies get an added box office boost the first week of the Avengers release. My prognostication? February/March and July/August will be used to feature new characters or teams. April/May will be the big event movie, and early November will feature a sequel. The July slot can also be used for a supplemental movie, like Spider-Man: Far From Home, which adds to the previous event movie. (Captain Marvel did the same, ten months after Infinity War.)
The Untitled Marvel movie on May 7, 2021, means it opens the weekend after Free Comic Book Day, which is on May 1st that year. I wonder if that will affect Marvel's publication plans? Maybe they'll offer a 25¢ tie-in, similar to DC's Year of the Villain comic from this year. Marvel can have it ship strict-on-sale (instead of weeks in advance with the other FCBD issues) to contain spoilers, still publish two regular FCBD giveaways, AND offer multiple retailer incentive variants to rake in the moolah. (DC offered 1:100, 1:250, 1:500 variants this year.) That will also be the TWENTIETH Free Comic Book Day. Hmmm…are FCBD publishers limited to the number of pages in the free issues? Could Marvel or DC publish an 80-page giant issue? Even if there is a size limit on FCBD, Marvel could still offer a Giant-Size Marvel Must-Have issue for $1 on the side. Or call it a Marvel Comics Super Special and offer a treasury edition as a variant, kinda like what they did with Battlestar Galactica!
Scene from Prince Ali's parade in Disney's live-action ALADDIN, directed by Guy Ritchie.
Untitled Disney Live Action… there are NINE such movies on this schedule. Since these are based on Disney animated features, there are 57 possible movies they can adapt (so far). and about forty that would be worthy. (I doubt we'll ever see a "live-action" version of Chicken Little.) The big problem with these adaptations: anthropomorphic characters like Robin Hood or Thomas O'Malley (not to mention Shun Gon!) might be too close to the Uncanny Valley to work, or be worth the time and money.
Also, if the original live-action adaptation is successful, Disney can greenlight sequels, especially if the original movie does not have music, such as Alice in Wonderland or Malificent. I would not be surprised if Disney actually does create more villain pictures. Those roles are usually the most fun for actors, and it allows Disney to fill in the backstory to a well-known movie.
What will Fox produce to fill in the blanks around the Disney dates? Wikipedia has a list of possible movies. Lots of graphic novels and strips "in development"! I suspect Disney is reviewing all of those contracts, not to mention the personnel working on those features.
Another "development": Fox (and now Disney) owns a "substantial" stake in Boom! Studios since 2017, in return for a first-look production deal. According to IMDB, there are fifteen movies which have been announced, but nothing has been released since Two Guns in 2013, and only Empty Man completed but without a firm release date. (Completed, it seems, in 2017, but not released, which is usually a sign of a troubled film.)
Boom recently acquired the Whedonverse properties, formerly at Dark Horse, but it's uncertain if Disney will pull the Fox licenses to Marvel, like they did with Star Wars.
Boom's business model is that they co-own the original graphic novels along with the creators. Could Disney acquire Boom! to gain (co)ownership of those titles? Some of you may recall that Disney bought CrossGen's assets at bankruptcy to get their hands on Abazad. (Disney published three chapter books, and then let the other assets hibernate, including patents for viewing comics electronically.) The best strategy would be to produce and distribute the movies under development, at a cost much less than a superhero movie, then use the box office profits to acquire Boom completely once the model is proven.
OR: Disney has Boom edit and publish their kids comics. IDW currently manages the Marvel and Star Wars titles for kids. Boom once published comics featuring Disney, Pixar, and Muppets characters.
Boom, like Fox, could become a "low risk" division of Disney, developing properties at low cost with the possibility of high return. Archaia is an "art house" publisher of comics. Boom might need to alter their business model, since most creators would be hesitant to partner with Disney via co-ownership. (Do Boom's legacy creators now regret their contracts with Boom? Will Hollywood Accounting keep creators from just compensation?)
As I showed above, Disney Studios has a schedule and a formula that works; last year, they had five movies which made $200 Million or more at the domestic box office, and three of those made more than $1 Billion worldwide. (Avengers: Infinity War broke $2 Billion worldwide, with only a third of that revenue from the US and Canada.) Last year, Disney made $$3.0924 Billion on ten movies (plus three movies from 2017). Second-place Warners was just short of $2 Billion, with 38/11. Fox? Fifth, with $1.082.3B, 12, 5.
While Disney does have a few faltering divisions (ESPN and cable is withering as viewers cut the chord and move to streaming services), Disney is aggressively competing on multiple battlefronts.
In streaming, they own a majority stake in Hulu (with full ownership in 2024), launched ESPN+ in 2018 (with 2 million subscribers paying $5 a month), run Hotstar in India (300 million monthly subscribers), and will launch Disney+ in November for a monthly fee of $7 or $70 for a year.
At their theme parks (which generates twice the revenue of the studios), Disney is actively competing with Universal Studios, both in southern California and Orlando. Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge opens this summer in both locations, and provides an immersive experience to compete with The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal. Disney has already upgraded their Animal Kingdom at Disney World with an attraction based on Avatar, and Marvel fans on both coasts are expectant on future attractions based on the MCU.
Disney paid $71.3 Billion for Fox. While it may take a while for Disney to recoup that investment, they will. (They've already made $10.6 Billion selling off Fox Regional Sports to Sinclair Media.) How they do it remains to be seen, but Bob Iger has an excellent track record of acquisitions for Disney. He retires in 2021, and it will be interesting to see if any of the major shareholders influence the hiring of his replacement. (James Murdoch is a possibility, but probably not immediately, due to the merger of Fox and the steep learning curve of Disney synergy.) Interesting times, as the British say.

Leipoa gallinacea — викопний вид куроподібних птахів родини великоногових (Megapodiidae). Вид мешкав у пліоцені та плейстоцені в Австралії. Скам'янілі рештки виду знайдені у штаті Квінсленд у відкладеннях формувань Дарлінг-Даунс і Шиншила та у штаті Новий Південний Уельс у печері Наракурт. Вид є родичем сучасного великонога строкатого (Leipoa ocellata), але мав більші розміри: вага птаха оцінюється у 6-7 кг. Досить розвинений киль вказує на те, що птах вмів добре літати.

Like most kids, my kids LOVE arts and crafts. For those of you who do not know I have a 4 year old (Ralph) and a 3 year old (Ryleigh). Ralph and Ryleigh have a lot of differences, but one thing they share is a deep hate for bedtime. Nothing ruins their evening quicker than Mommy or Daddy saying the evil words "BEDTIME". Faces frown and excuses fly. "I don't want to go to bed" or "I'm hungry", are favorites at my house.
Getting these guys to bed had become one of the roughest parts of my evening. Then finally I had an idea. My kids are very independent. I do not know how many times a day i hear the phrase "I want to do it by myself'". So I decided to make it one of their many jobs to put their selves to bed. How? You ask.
Once they had found all of the pictures I cut them out, and taped each activity over the hour at which we would typically do them. Now my pre schoolers had a clock that they could read and comprehend and our entire day flows a lot easier. This works really well because now instead of daddy saying hey guys it's nap time it goes more like this. "Daddy come tuck us in, it's time for us to take our nap" or "Daddy it's time for us to do our letters and numbers".
The clock has become a huge hit in our home and maybe you guys can use it as well.
If you have any other cool tips or tricks please let us know. We love fresh ideas!


Comments: Hardcover with full black cloth and metal disc, black cloth portfolio box, 426 x 286 mm, and 126 pp paperback booklet titled "Tokyo-Jin" (257 x 182 mm). First edition, 1974. Gravure printing. Included in Martin Parr & Gerry Badger, The Photobook, vol.I, p.302 ; Ryuichi Kaneko & Ivan Vartanian, Japanese Photobooks of the 1960's and 70s, p. 168-171. Very scarce and collectible copy! More pictures on demand.
The book's images exibit the familiar Provoke gestural aesthetic ; many of them look as if they were shot out of car windows, either speeding away from or towards the eponymous city, which we may read as Tokyo, or the modern Japan. Towards the City is a book about economics, consumption and the inevitable price paid for the economic boom in polluted skies and a land strewn with waste and detritus.
If Toshi-e marked the close of the Provoke era, it is perhaps fitting that it did so whith the thoughtful pessimism of Takanashi rather than the nihilistic rage of Daido Moriyama. For many Japanese the 1960s had ended with an acquiescent whimper rather than a revolutionary bang, when Japan ratified the joint security treaty with the United States. The big issue in the 1970's was not so much Americanization as Japan's own economic miracle, and the cost the country paid for unbridied consumerism. Takanashi addresses this complex question with lyrical passion.


Hit a home run with a pitcher. Must play an uninterrupted game against the CPU without switching sides or fast-forwarding. Excludes Community Challenges and Home Run Derby™ modes.
The easiest way to complete this is to edit the attributes for a certain pitcher and play a game with an NL team as the home team. I used Kershaw and edited his hitting attributes to be 99, he hit a home run in his first at bat, and if I remember correctly, in his second as well.
Moving the pitcher to the first spot in the order isn't a bad idea if you're looking to get the trophy and quit out of the game.

Roundabout a joke but who's laughing?
I agree with the people protesting the proposed Ironwood-Auten roundabout.
I used the roundabout near the South Bend Regional Airport once trying to get back on Mayflower Road going home. I nearly got into an accident with a semi that was having a difficult time trying to get on. I was never able to get to Mayflower Road and wound up on Lincoln Way. I avoid it and any other roundabouts.
The next time using the same roundabout coming off Mayflower Road going to the airport, I discovered a second roundabout entering the airport. Leaving the airport I was nearly sideswiped by a automobile that did not slow down. The cars behind it were also speeding.
I'm sure putting stop signs or signal lights are more cost effective than roundabouts. That money could be used more effectively improving the roads we already have.
Roundabouts are a joke and so is the person suggesting them.
I get the feeling that I should get out of South Bend before I'm trapped by roundabouts.
My great-grandfather worked for the railroad and was a die-hard Republican. Then came the Great Depression. Family lore says great-grandfather saw that the politics he had believed in just didn't add up. For the rest of his life he was a fierce New Deal Democrat. Great-grandfather experienced a historic moment when rhetoric met reality. Today, our economic troubles similarly are lifting the guise of rhetoric veiling the truth about Republican Party economics.
The Republican Party tempts us with beautiful images of capitalism as a perfect system. It seduces us with an idealized vision of an economy in which rational and moral individuals interact in perfect markets and plies us with pretty brands like trickle-down economics and supply side economics.
Republican Party rhetoric is meeting reality again. Today's Republican economics: deregulation of insurance companies, banks and Wall Street; and tax incentives for companies to outsource American jobs, does not work for the economy or for America's working families.
Republican economics, clearly only serve the narrow interests of billionaires and big corporations. The Republican Party, once again, has proven itself harmful to America's small business owners, family farmers, professionals, wage workers, and retirees. Reality repudiates Republican Party rhetoric.
Much attention has been given, and condolences offered over the death of my father, Roland W. Chamblee Sr. On behalf of our family, we thank the community.
His patients who entrusted him with their well-being impacted him just as he impacted their lives.
Others labored by his side to help those in need. No man stands alone.
Dedicated medical providers worked to keep him with us and helped him die with dignity.
We also appreciate those who supported us as we said farewell, our family at Little Flower, the police officers who escorted us to his grave and the veterans who saluted him when he arrived.
And finally, we thank all those who took the time to honor his memory, whether by waiting in line to say goodbye, or by offering a private prayer.
The kindness our family experienced, from friends and strangers alike, was overwhelming and represented the best of this community. It was a return on the investment of time and energy Dad made in pursuing a better quality of life for those who live here.
A fitting tribute might be that we all invest our best efforts in pursuing the same goal.
Cindy Ellis is the Democrat candidate for Michigan State Representative in the 78th District. She is dedicated, smart and highly qualified to serve southwest Michigan in these difficult economic times. Her experience includes running a business for more than 20 years, putting unemployed people back to work. In addition to Michigan Works, she will add innovative programs and skills in matching people and jobs. She has been knocking on doors and getting to know the constituents in the district.
I strongly urge you to vote for Ellis on Nov. 2.
The administration of the St. Joseph County Public Library needs to develop two proposals for keeping the LaSalle Branch open. Contrary to what has been written in the newspaper, the LaSalle Branch is visited by people. Although the LaSalle Branch circulation is not as high as other branches, many people come each day to LaSalle to read newspapers, magazines or use the computers. People living near LaSalle pay taxes, too. They also deserve library service.


Fits all 2007.5 Dodge Cummins 6.7 24 valve Common Rail cylinder heads.
Will work on 2007.5 to present 6.7 engines WITHOUT the EGR cooling deleted!!!!
Our water bypass kit relieves excessive pressure in the back of the engine while also dropping coolant temperatures by as much as 20 degrees!
Engines that turn high RPM's create high pressure in the back of the block that causes freeze plugs in the block & cylinder head to blow out under 'higher than stock' hp applications as well as possible cylinder head gasket damage. This is a common problem with all Cummins engines that are turned up and this is the best solution.
This kit will also help with the higher temperature at the back of the engine where #5 & 6 cylinders suffer. Most commonly, people confuse poor flow to the back of the head with excessive heat. 99% of the time it is an issue with temperature and not air flow. We have tested this kit on many of our own and customer trucks for several years and this is a proven must have!!!!!
