Buffalo Bills at Pittsburgh Steelers

The Buffalo Bills are on the road for a primetime matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night football. The Bills are (9-4), after falling to the Baltimore Ravens, 24 to 17. The Pittsburgh Steelers are (8-5), coming off a 23-17 road win over the Arizona Cardinals.
In the Bills loss to the Ravens, Buffalo was led on offense by Josh Allen. Allen completed 17 of 39 passes for 146 yds and a touchdown. Cole Beasley added 4 receptions for 29 yds and a touchdown. The Bills were out gained on offense by the Ravens, 257to 209. Buffalo struggled on 3rd down, converting just 4 times out of 17 chances. Bills kicker Stephen Hauschka connected on all 3 field goal attempts, with a long of 48 yds. Each team had one turnover in the game.
In the Steelers win over the Cardinals, Pittsburgh was guided throughout the game by quarterback Delvin Hodges. Hodges was 16 of 19 passing for 152 yds a passing touchdown. Diontae Johnson contributed an 85 yd punt return for a touchdown, while also snagging a 2 yd receiving touchdown. The Steelers out gained the Cardinals 275 to 236. Pittsburgh committed 2 turnovers, but forced 3 in the game.
Recent Betting Trends:
Bills are 6-0-1 ATS in their last 7 road games.
Bills are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
The under is 5-1 in Bills last 6 games overall.
Steelers are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
Steelers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 vs the AFC.
The under is 5-0 in Steelers last 5 games overall.
The Bills are 1-5 ATS in the last 6 matchups with the Steelers. In what is expected to be a big defensive battle, the first team to 17 points may end up winning this one. Buffalo has struggled ATS in recent games against the Steelers. HoHowever, Buffalo has been great on the road this year, having gone 5-1 to this point. Both defense's rank in the top 6th in scoring defense. Each defense has been stellar against the pass, allowing less than 210 yds passing per game. This game could come down to which team can run the ball better. I have more faith in the Bills Allen and Devin Singletary, as Steelers running back Blake Snell had a lost fumble last week. With the Steelers banged up, this is the week it starts to show, going up against a stout Buffalo defense. Final score prediction, Bills will outright win, 17-16.
Chris's Pick BUF +1.0
San Francisco 49ers vs. Atlanta Falcons - 12/15/19 NFL Pick, Odds, and Prediction
New Orleans Saints vs. Indianapolis Colts - 12/16/19 NFL Pick, Odds, and Prediction

Chris is busy writing amazing articles for Sports Chat Place but will create a bio soon.


Ram sales can be quite exciting. It's a chance to pick out some of the best rams to join the flock. Texels, like this one, are always good sellers.
This one ended up coming home with us.
I'd been talking about how cute Hampshire Down sheep were. When one came into the ring that I liked the look of, to my surprise Dad started bidding. We wound up with two lovely ones.
The following morning they were put to work mowing down this horribly overgrown little field. This is the smaller of the two Hampshires.
The smaller of the Texels.
The bigger Hampshire. He's my favourite. There's just something about this face that is full of character.
And finally the larger of the Texels.
And then there's Blue Belle, who's keeping an eye on them for us.
"Are you boys behaving down there?"
I'm really happy with our new rams (two Hampshire Down lambs and two Texel shearlings).
I'm really looking forward to seeing the baby Hampshires in the spring!

3 Ways in Which Smart Hybrid Technology Enhances Fuel Efficiency | Arenaworld
Smart Hybrid Technology by Maruti Suzuki works to ensure two of the important things that everyone driving a car is concerned about – saving fuel and enhancing fuel-efficiency. But, owing to the benefits it has on offer, the Smart Hybrid technology is also a key step towards greener and cleaner mobility.
Introduced with the launch of NEXA Ciaz in 2015, Maruti Suzuki's Smart Hybrid Technology has since then made its way in four more cars within the Maruti Suzuki line-up – Baleno, Ertiga, S-Cross, Vitara Brezza.
Maruti Suzuki's Smart Hybrid technology is a progressive technology that employs an Integrated Starter Generator (ISG) which replaces the conventional alternator. It comes with a dual battery set up which is a combination of Lithium-Ion and Lead Acid battery.
How is Smart Hybrid helping to Enhance Fuel Efficiency?
Well, it is doing that in 3 ways. Here's how they come into play: -
• When the Car is in Idle
You are stuck in traffic and your car is at a standstill. The Smart Hybrid Technology is designed with an Idle Stop Start function which is an integral part of this technology. This automatically turns off the engine when at standstill. Once you are ready to go, you just have to depress the clutch. As soon as you do that, the car starts again. This helps in reducing fuel consumption and enhances fuel efficiency.
• Every Time You Brake
Another way the Smart Hybrid Technology helps in enhancing the fuel efficiency is brake energy regeneration. In this, the ISG uses the electricity that is generated with the help of regenerative braking to keep the dual battery setup charged. The kinetic energy which is produced when the car slows down is converted into electrical energy. This is then stored in the dual battery set up which helps in Torque Assist.
• By Assisting During Acceleration
In this, the energy that is stored in the dual battery set up is utilized by the ISG to assist the engine during acceleration. This is known as the Torque Assist function which helps in reducing the load on the engine, thus increasing the fuel efficiency.
The cars that come equipped with Smart Hybrid Technology are, in fact, future-ready. This technology doesn't just enhance the overall driving performance but also makes the car a more fuel-efficient and eco-friendly option. In essence, it is bridging the gap towards achieving greener mobility. To know more about Maruti Suzuki's Smart Hybrid Technology, click here.
Maruti Suzuki introduced the Auto Gear Shift to Indian car buyers in 2014 with Maruti Suzuki Celerio. Since then, AGS has made its way into 7 more models in the Maruti Suzuki line-up. Even more importantly, it has made automatic cars
According to the recent survey done by WHO, India has one of the most number of polluted cities amongst the top hundred cities in the world. To improve the situation, the Government of
It's almost here! In just a few days or so, cars in India will be adhering to the stringent BS6 emission norms that you have been hearing and reading about for so long
Owing to how CVT works, the flow of power from the engine to the wheels is continuous. As a result, the car is able to build up speed in a gradual and smooth manner. All of this combines to make a CVT car quite smooth to drive
The car features of Safety and Performance are integral for car buyers today. In a continuous and progressive endeavour, Maruti Suzuki has successfully developed a car platform that enhances the overall performance of the vehicle and

Mannatech Harnesses the Ancient Power of Aloe Vera in Its Nutritional Supplements
Mannatech's Ambrotose® powder (Photo: Business Wire)
March 20, 2017 10:51 AM Eastern Daylight Time
GUANGZHOU, China--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mannatech®, Incorporated (NASDAQ: MTEX), a global health and wellness company committed to transforming lives to make a better world, is providing its China cross-border e-commerce customers with some of the best products available that harness the ancient, healthful properties of the aloe vera plant. In fact, Mannatech's aloe vera-based products include some of the purest forms of ingredients derived from aloe vera, with benefits that have been supported by clinical testing, something most other supplement providers cannot claim.
This is just one of a number of advantages that Mannatech provides its customers compared to almost all of its competitors, which helps to ensure that the wellness promises made are real and substantiated. Of course, the effect that clinically proven wellness technology has on an individual's health can make a major difference, because without scientific validation, people can't be sure if what they are using will help or even if the products they take are what they claim to be.
For more than 20 years, Mannatech has included a pure, very refined ingredient derived from the gel of the aloe vera plant called Manapol® powder. Manapol powder is an essential ingredient in core Mannatech glyconutritional products. Mannatech's Advanced Ambrotose® powder and Ambrotose Complex powder are among the company's top-selling products containing this aloe vera gel extract, and are known for their cognitive, immune and gastrointestinal benefits.
Mannatech's product technology, some of which includes Ambrotose powders, has been validated by scientific studies, having been the subject of 17 human clinical trials that have been published, 12 of which were double-blind, placebo-controlled studies—the gold standard for product validation. With Mannatech's rigorous testing and quality controls, Mannatech products are known for their effectiveness at supporting the health and wellness of its customers.
"Mannatech takes great pains to ensure that we provide scientifically-backed product technology that is clinically tested. This is critical for our products that include aloe vera because we want to ensure we are delivering what we promise," said Alfredo "Al" Bala, CEO and President of Mannatech. "Customers of many other companies are taking a gamble on the effectiveness of their purchases, but with Mannatech, there is no such risk. We have the best suppliers, quality controls from farm to family with finished products and clinical trials to support the safety and efficacy of our product technology that few can match."
Mannatech takes extraordinary steps to provide its customers with real, beneficial aloe vera-based products. This includes transparency down to the plant in the ground. A big part of the transparency promise Mannatech makes is tied to the technology and supply Mannatech has painstakingly developed through the years. For example, recently Mannatech announced it has secured its continuing source of premium Manapol powder with an exclusive deal with Natural Aloe Costa Rica.
Additionally, Mannatech protects its product technology with 128 patents in major global markets. Again, this is something that is unmatched in the supplements industry.
Mannatech also makes efforts to be transparent and provide its customers with the latest scientific data and trends about its products in the U.S. and South Africa on its science website, MannatechScience.org. This speaks to the confidence that the company has in its products and science.
Finally, the company is proud to have a Global Scientific Advisory Board, made up of physicians, scientists and researchers from around the world. These experts take part in Mannatech's commitment to scientific validation and ensure that its customers have top scientific minds supporting their needs.

Federation to Help CDCU's Apply for Stimulus Money
The National Federation of Community Development Credit Unions is launching a concerted effort to help community development credit unions apply for money available from the Treasury's Community Development Financial Institutions Fund.
By David Morrison | Updated on March 23, 2009

The CDFI Fund was appropriated additional funds as part of the economic stimulus package and has been slated for additional funding in the budget for the next fiscal year, but National Federation CEO Cliff Rosenthal said that only roughly 85 CDCUs had been certified as a CDFIs and were thus eligible for CDFI funding.

BrightnessControl
===========
Shell script to control screen brightness in Ubuntu Linux.

##Usage

	$ sudo backlight.sh -u | -d

-u Increases brightness
-d Decrease brightness

##More Fun

###Creating your own command

* Move the script backlight.sh to */usr/bin/*
`$ sudo mv backlight.sh /usr/bin/backlight`
* Now its possible to execute the script from anywhere in the commandline without the .sh extension
`$ sudo backlight -u | -d`

###Executing the script without password
* As the script requires more privileges, we have to run it with *sudo* and type in the password
* To avoid this lets modify the *sudoers file* to allow the current user to execute the command without password
* Open the *sudoers file*:
`$ sudo visudo `
* Add the following line to the file
`username ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/backlight`
where username is your username
* Press Control + X to save the file and reboot your system
* After the reboot you can run the command without entering the password

###Control brightness on keypress
* It makes our life easier if we are able to raise/lower brightness using keyboard. It's very easy.
* Install *xbindkeys* using the following command:
`$ sudo apt-get install xbindkeys`
* Next we have to create a configuration file for *xbindkeys* in the home directory
`$ xbindkeys --defaults > $HOME/.xbindkeysrc`
where $HOME referes to your home directory
* Open the configuration file:
`$ nano .xbindkeysrc`
* Add your configuration which is a pair of key and a command to execute on pressing that key.
```
"sudo backlight -u"
    Control + Right
"sudo backlight -d"
    Control + Left
```
* Save the file and close it.
* Run xbindkeys
`$ xbindkeys`
* Now pressing *Control + Right* should increase the brightness and *Control + Right* decreases it.
* To make *xbindkeys* stop listening to key presses:
`$ killall -HUP xbindkeys`

##Devices
Checked in Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit Linux on Dell Inspiron N4010. It will work in all Dell Inspirons I guess. About other laptops I don't know SORRY!

He compiled and published Li Hongzhi's first Falun Gong book.
He set up all the overseas tutoring stations of Falun Gong and managed to have Research Society of Falun Dafa successfully registered.
Since Li Hongzhi went abroad in 1995, he became the chief leader of Research Society of Falun Dafa in the mainland of China.
He is just Li Chang. As a former favorite of Li Hongzhi and a leading figure in Falun Gong, Li Chang used to be completely faithful to Li Hongzhi and crazily believe in Falun Gong, and Li Chang used to think that he would work for Falun Gong wholeheartedly for the rest of his lifetime.
Li Chang graduated from Nankai University as a student of science and technology. By the time he was enforced with residential surveillance on July 20, 1999, Li Chang has been a member of Communist Party for 39 years and 20 days. However, just for the sake of Falun Gong, Li Chang decided to retire two years earlier than expected from the Ministry of Public Security. Then Li Chang has been a national cadre of division level.
In order to defend Falun Gong, Li Chang directly plotted and commanded "April 25" beleaguerment of Zhongnanhai by Falun Gong practitioners, which shocked the whole country and the world. The former besiegement of Beijing TV Station was also organized and launched by Li Chang.
In September 2006, Li Chang of 67 years old recalled that period peacefully and reasonably. He remarked, "I am guilty. I have to be responsible for what I have done."
Li Chang has never denied his leading position in "April 25" besiegement. He recalled that on April 25, in the early morning, he intentionally drove around Zhongnanhai for some time. When he found that more and more people gathered around Zhongnanhai, he couldn't help feeling afraid for he knew what was happening was totally beyond his control. Used to be an official in the Ministry of Public Security, he figured out that he would be punished by law.
Naturally Li Chang has been imprisoned. 18 years' imprisonment was awaiting him. Li Chang has spent 7 years in prison peacefully. He said, "I have done wrong. What I have done has been against national law. I should be responsible for what I have done."
Li Chang knew clearly that Falun Gong should not be engaged in political affairs. When he was in charge of establishing overseas tutoring stations and having Research Society of Falun Dafa registered, Li Chang drafted the constitution for Research Society of Falun Dafa in person. Li Chang said, "When foreign countries were censoring our constitution, they have all focused on one point that Falun Gong shouldn't be involved in political affairs; otherwise Falun Gong would be against their laws." So when he was informed of what Li Hongzhi and Falun Gong were doing abroad nowadays, Li Chang was greatly surprised and he thought it was beyond his imagination.
Li Hongzhi has made a lot of vicious and defamatory statements about how Falun Gong practitioners have been persecuted or abused to death, and how organ transplantations have been made on living Falun Gong practitioners in the Mainland of China. As for these rumors, Li Chang gave his comments calmly.
According to his own situation, he said, "Since I was in the prison, all of them have treated me mildly and reasonably. In addition, considering my old age, they even took good care of me. So I have never been abused in any way."
Based on his experience in the Ministry of Public Security, Li Chang analyzed the rumors spread by Li Hongzhi and Falun Gong.
Li Chang said, "The ban on Falun Gong is a national campaign. A large number of policemen have been arranged to carry out the task. Experienced or senior policemen would not fight in the front line. So some green hands might take some improper or extreme actions. This is natural and inevitable according to my experience. Just like the traffic, it is hard to have no traffic accidents. But a few accidents don't mean it is too dangerous to drive on the roads. So those rumors can't hold any water."
Falun Gong has recently feigned a new rumor that there was a Sujiatun Concentration Camp for Falun Gong practitioners in Shenyang, Liaoning Province. Informed of this rumor, Li Chang felt Falun Gong tended to be more politicized. "That day, our political instructor told us the rumor about Sujiatun Concentration Camp in which six thousands Falun Gong practitioners were imprisoned and their organs were sold alive. It is clearly impossible." He said firmly and angrily, "Even if there is a single case of abuse, it is against national law and policies. But it is impossible. Even during the Cultural Revolution, no such cruel cases have occurred in our country."
"All the rumors spread just because Falun Gong has been politicized. I hate these rumors. I hate such kind of politicized Falun Gong." Li Chang felt disappointed and annoyed.
"In the process of spreading Falun Gong, I have known clearly that Falun Gong should be kept away from any political affairs in foreign countries (where Falun Gong was spread). Therefore, when Falun Gong is spreading in Taiwan, they have to follow the local regulations. But taking the reunification of China and the returning of Taiwan to China for consideration, Falun Gong shouldn't malign the Mainland policies and attack the Communist Party in this respect. It is the same case with foreign countries. Falun Gong should obey laws in those counties, but there is no excuse for them to denigrate Chinese laws." Li Chang said angrily, "In the past, I have always advocated Falun Gong to the outside as the symbol of Chinese traditional culture and Qigong culture. Now Falun Gong has been totally politicized, so it surely comes to its tragic ending. It is out of my expectations."
Li Chang reiterated, "Surely it is beyond my expectation. I haven't thought Falun Gong to develop in such a manner."

Criminal Law / Evidence Law
From Khan to Khelawon: A Winding Road, or So I've Heard
by Yu-Sung Soh · February 22, 2007
The rules governing hearsay evidence have seen a period of dramatic upheaval since 1990, when the SCC released its judgment in R v Khan, [1990] 2 SCR 531 [Khan]. Prior to that decision, all hearsay evidence was inadmissible unless it fell within one of a number of categorical exceptions developed through the common law. Khan signaled the shift to a more flexible approach, based on the underlying principles behind both the hearsay rule and its exceptions: necessity and reliability. Thus, hearsay evidence that did not fit into one of the categorical exceptions could now be admitted if the evidence was shown to be both necessary and reliable.
Since Khan, this principled approach to hearsay evidence has undergone various modifications. Subsequent decisions by the SCC have alternately expanded and contracted the scope of the approach. R v Smith, [1992] 2 SCR 915, appeared to sound the death knell for categorical exceptions, taking the first steps towards a unified test where all hearsay evidence would be assessed under the principles of necessity and reliability. In R v Starr, [2000] 2 SCR 144 [Starr], the SCC reaffirmed the value of the categorical exceptions and provided a defence for their continued existence on the basis of predictability, judicial efficiency and guidance in specific factual contexts.
This shift back to the more structured approach was again confirmed by the SCC in R v Khelawon, 2006 SCC 57 [Khelawon], a judgment released at the end of last year. In this decision, the SCC set out a summary of the current state of hearsay evidence as follows:
(a) Hearsay evidence is presumptively inadmissible unless it falls under an exception to the hearsay rule. The traditional exceptions to the hearsay rule remain presumptively in place.
(b) A hearsay exception can be challenged to determine whether it is supported by indicia of necessity and reliability, required by the principled approach. The exception can be modified as necessary to bring it into compliance.
(c) In "rare cases", evidence falling within an existing exception may be excluded because the indicia of necessity and reliability are lacking in the particular circumstances of the case.
(d) If hearsay evidence does not fall under a hearsay exception, it may still be admitted if indicia of reliability and necessity are established on a voir dire.
Thus, the starting point is once again the hearsay rule and its categorical exceptions. Like the prejudicial value and probative effects discretion, the principled approach has been relegated to a residual role in the analysis, only called into action when necessary.
In Khelawon, the SCC did take the opportunity to correct missteps taken six years earlier in the Starr decision. The offending passages from Starr consisted of comments made by Iacobucci J. regarding the type of evidence that should be used in assessing the reliability of hearsay evidence under the principled exception:
Threshold reliability is concerned not with whether the statement is true or not; that is a question of ultimate reliability. Instead, it is concerned with whether or not the circumstances surrounding the statement itself provide circumstantial guarantees of trustworthiness . . . At the stage of hearsay admissibility the trial judge should not consider the declarant's general reputation for truthfulness, nor any prior or subsequent statements, consistent or not. These factors do not concern the circumstances of the statement itself. Similarly, I would not consider the presence of corroborating or conflicting evidence.
In the view of the current SCC, this distinction between threshold and ultimate reliability, as described by Iacobucci J. in Starr, is unhelpful in deciding what factors should be considered. Instead, they propose a more functional approach that focuses on the dangers presented by the particular hearsay statements and whether there is evidence to counteract those dangers. Thus, corroborative evidence, which could provide support for the accuracy of a hearsay statement, may be considered even though it does not go towards showing that the particular circumstances in which the statement was made safeguarded against unreliability. Certainly, in Khan, the case that started it all, the SCC used corroborating evidence of a child's story as one of the key reasons why it determined her hearsay statements were reliable.
This makes a lot of sense to me. If I could provide compelling support from other sources for the truth of certain hearsay evidence, would this not be a good way to ensure that the evidence is reliable. In fact, such support would probably be more to the point than simply showing that there was no reason to lie in the circumstances. After all, this whole exercise is ultimately to ensure that the trier of fact has access to all relevant and accurate information.
In the future, the SCC will probably need to make some more tweaks to the rules of hearsay. For now, it appears that they have settled into a comfortable position which provides some structure and certainty while avoiding the unbending rigidity of the pre-Khan rule.

She's a singing prodigy and a star of screens both big and small. She's made us laugh in her role as Fiona on Shameless, and awesome performances in Mystic River and The Phantom of the Opera prove she's got the whole drama thing down. She has classic Hollywood style, and abs that make us want to do sit-ups for the rest of our lives. Emmy Rossum, will you be our Valentine? The multi-talented actress's latest film Beautiful Creatures opens today, and we're definitely certain that she's the most beautiful creature in it! Or ever, for that matter.
Sorry Cupid, but we've got other plans for our Valentine's Day evening. We've been counting down the days until the southern Gothic teen flick went wide across the country, and nothing's going to get in our way to see Ridley Duchannes come alive before our very eyes. Yes, Emmy has completely stolen our hearts. Do you need any more reasons why? You do!? OK, well then head to the gallery up above, because we've got 30!


There is nothing worse. I repeat, nothing worse than being hungry right after you supposedly had your lunch. Does your new diet have you down and feeling hungry right away? Maybe it is time to beef up your lunch salad just a touch and you might reap the benefits hours from then. Some people think they need to eat a salad with just greens, and a few veggies to stay under their caloric number for the day, but what about when hunger pangs strike and you find yourself reaching for unhealthy quick snack which will ruin your attempts at your diet? This is where your lunch portions are key to diet survival, so why not add in a little protein like chicken to the top of your salad with a little bit of dressing? Those options are far better than the candy bowl at the front office, which is a hard one to turn down when you are starving. Even better, add a few slices of avocado to your salad and stay satisfied for longer!
Eating a salad at least one a day is a recipe for healthy habits, so why not make the salad fabulous and fresh? You are probably thinking you are going to have to chop and cut every single night to maintain the fresh taste by your lunch break but it really isn't that complicated. One day a week get all of your containers ready to go, and wash and dry the leafy greens, fruit, and veggies completely before adding them to the container. When you do this, their chance of staying crisp longer goes up. Keep your dressing completely separate until you are ready to eat the salad, so it does not get soggy!
Veggies, leafy greens, and fruits are pretty resilient for about a week so do not let them sit much longer than that for the most optimally fresh taste. You can also add in a cold protein like turkey or chicken that will also keep for 5 days so take advantage of the extra fuel. Check out the recipe below for a satisfying and tasty dressing recipe to add onto your salad once you are ready to eat!
In a food processor: combine the avocado, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and white wine vinegar. Process until very smooth and creamy.


Have you used Annie Sloan Chalk Paint yet? I am thinking of getting some soon.
I need to stick with my New Year's Resolution of adding more turquoise to my house and I love her colors.
I also love that they can be mixed to produce several different shades.
I like Provence or maybe Duck Egg Blue.
I really love Antibes green too.
I am sure it's way fancier pronounced right, compared to how I pronounce it in my head.
Anyway, I am dreaming up all the things I can paint, while Katie is doing the spring cleaning for me!
She got me up TWICE in the middle of the night last night, so she totally owes me!
I made her 3 meals yesterday and she didn't eat any of them! So she woke up hungry. (duh!) At 3:30 I gave her some milk. And then at 5:00 I caved and gave her some goldfish. I will let a 2 1/2 year old be the boss of me, if it means getting some sleep!
Tomorrow I might teach her how to do laundry, because I'm still a little cranky.
I want to get some AS paint too but do you know where to buy it in DFW??
My little guy does the same thing. I even try to have things that I "think" are his favorites but what do I know....I'm not a toddler boy!!
My kitchen cabinets are provence. I have used Annie Sloan and regular ol Sherwin Williams....and the SW is much better.
I purchased some AS paint a couple weeks ago at an Antique mall in Plano (at 75 and Plano Parkway behind Olive Garden). This was my 1st furniture painting experience, so my opinion may not be the best. I liked that I didn't have to sand the furniture first, but it is taking me several coats to get the coverage I need (the can said it should only take one coat). Since I have to sneak outside to work on it a few minutes after my girls go to bed, this simple project is taking me much longer than I had planned.
I have an AS Paris Grey dresser that I love. I'm excited to see your AS projects!

This proposal builds on - and extends to new audiences and user communities - our NDA funded research project (2009-2012) entitled Ages and Stages: The Place of Theatre in Representations and Recollections of Ageing. It aims to develop some of the activities and research-led learning from that project and, in so doing, reach out to - and bring together - user communities who may not traditionally have worked with drama in the ways proposed here. This will be achieved through the following connected programme of drama-related activities: 1) The formation of an intergenerational theatre company at the New Vic Theatre. Through a regular series of workshops, the company will bring older and younger people together in creative, drama-based activities to enhance understanding between the generations and support the continued social engagement of both groups. 2) A touring performance. The IG company will create a touring piece(s) which can be taken out to audiences within, and beyond, North Staffordshire. We anticipate that these audiences might include local councils; primary as well as secondary schools; residential homes/housing developments for older people; community groups and higher education institutions providing professional training courses (for teachers, social workers and doctors/nurses). 3) An inter-professional training course and training materials/resources, which will aim to develop practice capabilities and age awareness amongst teachers, health and social care professionals, arts practitioners and others interested in learning about and including intergenerational theatre/drama in their practice. The IG company will act as an important resource by contributing to the development and delivery of the training sessions and providing feedback to participants. 4) A scoping exercise for a wider 'Creative Age Festival', which could leave a concrete community legacy from Ages & Stages. The project will continue to be overseen by the existing 'Ages and Stages' Advisory Group, which includes experts in drama, intergenerational practice, policy and gerontology. The group will also be refreshed by new members, including younger members of the intergenerational theatre company (aged 16-18) . The activities we propose are timely for the following reasons. First, there is a notable groundswell of interest in the arts in general and theatre/drama in particular, not simply as a cultural activity but as one which has the potential to impact positively on the well-being of older and younger people. Second, in times of scarce resources, it is important to capitalise on activities which bring people together rather than those which might pit the generations against each other. Third, there is a role for practitioners in facilitating and enabling these kinds of activities but rarely, to our knowledge, have there been opportunities for professionals from differing arenas to work together as is proposed here. Finally, it is important to make best use of existing knowledge - not just that generated from our own work but also that of colleagues. We will be drawing strongly from our collaborators, including our linked Canadian project (about the impact of theatre on health ageing, which runs until 2013), and will also remain part of the New Dynamics of Ageing programme and will benefit from the knowledge exchanges this offers.

Towards Realisation of Untapped Oil Resources via Enhanced THAI-CAPRI Process Using Novel Catalysts
Funder: UKRI Project Code: EP/J008303/1
Funder Contribution: 503,961 GBP
Partners: University of Birmingham, Petrobank Energy and Resources Ltd
Extensive unexploited resources of heavy oil and bitumen exist, for example in Canada and Venezuela, as well as heavier deposits under the North Sea UK, which could potentially be utilized as the production of conventional light crude declines. Heavy oil and bitumen are more difficult to recover than conventional crude, requiring mining or specialized in-situ recovery techniques followed by upgrading to make them suitable for use as a fuel. Toe to heel air injection (THAITM) is an in-situ combustion and upgrading process in which air is injected to a horizontal well to feed combustion of a small fraction of the oil (up to 15 %). The heat generated causes the oil to flow along the well, where thermal upgrading reactions occur, leading to upgrading of the oil (by 4-6 API). CAPRI is a catalytic add-on to THAI in which catalyst is packed around the well to effect further catalytic upgrading reactions, such as hydrotreatment, however previous studies showed that the catalyst lifetime and process effectiveness are limited by coke deposition upon the catalyst. Additionally the costs and challenges of packing the well with pelleted catalyst prior to starting up also make the CAPRI process less economically attractive. The current proposal seeks to develop cheap, effective nanoparticulate catalysts which could be conveyed into the well by air or as slurry during operation, thereby avoiding the requirement for packing the well with catalyst prior to start up and to reduce the amount of deactivation and bed blockage that occurs by coke deposition upon pelleted catalysts. Initially, readily available iron oxide nanoparticles will be tested as a base-case. Nanoparticulate catalysts will also be prepared by supporting the metal upon bacteria, using a method in which metal containing solution is reduced in the presence of a bacterial culture, followed by centrifuge and drying which kills the live bacteria. The method has the advantages of being able to utilize scrap metal solutions and thus facilitate recycling of metals from waste sources, and it may be tuned to engineer nanoparticles of desired size and properties (e.g. crystal structures). Here we seek to develop, test and scale up the production of biogenic Fe catalysts for the upgrading of oil in the THAI process. Furthermore, waste road dusts contain deposits of catalytic metals from the exhaust of vehicular catalytic converters and these will be converted into cheap mixed metal catalysts by economically proven biohydrometallurgical methods for testing in the THAI process. Key to the effectiveness of utilizing nanoparticle catalysts will be the ability to contact them with oil in the mobile oil zone and flame front of the well, where the reaction is taking place. Studies of the rock void structure will be carried out using techniques such as X-Ray microtomography. Monte Carlo and Lattice Boltzmann simulations will be used to study the pneumatic conveying of particles into the reservoir and to study penetration and distribution of particles within the void space of the rocks. Conveying of slurry catalysts and process performance will be modeled using STARS reservoir simulation software. Evaluation of the different catalysts will be performed experimentally under real conditions using a rig developed under a previous project. The effect of variables such as gas:oil ratio, temperature, pressure and gas composition will be studied experimentally, in order to select the best catalyst and understand the conditions required for maximum upgrading. The experiments will also indicate whether catalyst deactivation occurs during use and enable conditions to be tuned to avoid deactivation.

Minsk is the capital of…?
Quick! Can you tell me of which European nation Minsk is the capital? I confess to not knowing. This largely agricultural nation which has a history dating back to 5,000 BCE, suffered terribly in World War II, losing about a third of its population, most of its Jewish population, and physical devastation including (Wiki is my source) 85% of its buildings at the hands of Nazi Germany. Let me rephrase that: these people, non-Jews and Jews alike, were not "lost," they were killed in the war or in concentration camps.
This nation is home to four UNESCO World Heritage Sites, one of which is considered a cultural site, the Nesvizh Castle of the Radziwill Family, dates back to the early 1500s. The site is also known as The Architectural, Residential, and Cultural Complex of the Radziwill Family at Nesvizh.
One of the countries this nation borders is Ukraine. The 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster in Ukraine (was it a complete meltdown?) affected about one fourth of the land and five million of the 9,5 million people of this nation. Rates of birth defects have risen. Caesium binders are dispersed and rapeseed is planted since the rapeseed oil plant binds radioactive caesium.
Side note: In Canada and the U.S. rapeseed has been genetically modified to create the highly unwholesome, unnatural canola oil plant. Don't buy or use canola oil!
What is this nation with a population almost exactly the size of the population of Sweden? It is Belarus.
As Americans, our geographical isolation is one contributing factor to our sometimes profound ignorance of other nations and international affairs. Though I often watch BBC International news, I must plead ignorance in this case, and hope that someone from Belarus, or with greater knowledge than that I have hastily acquired, will comment and inform us.
Belarus declared independence from the former SSSR in 1990. The European Union has just voted to continue sanctions–trade sanctions–against Belarus. Belarus is a member of the Commonwealth of Independent States, all members of the former Soviet Union.

Q: Is there a name for the stars you see when you hit your head? When you hit your head, you may see stars or flashes. Is there a specific name for them?

A: This is one of several types of entoptic phenomenon : visual effects whose source is within the eye itself

A: Many people also use "knockout stars", as seen in cartoons when a character is knocked out.  The character sees stars swirling around his or her head.

A: Seeing flashing lights is called photopsia. But "seeing stars" is a perfectly normal way of referring to the phenomenon.

Okami is still fantastic. Even in a year like 2017, which had dozens of amazing games and several terrific open-world adventures, the updated Okami HD feels like it could have been a new release. Okami is an ageless classic that, even after 11 years since the last time played it, is somehow even better than I remember.
Loving Okami isn't a new hot take; when the original released back in 2006, it was a critical darling; it's currently 93% on Metacritic, and our own review at the time gave it a 9 out of 10. But publisher Capcom was disappointed by the game's low sales. After developer Clover had another commercial failure in God Hand--along with the departure of key personnel later that same year--the studio was shut down in 2007. And yet despite the game's post-release troubles, Okami still stands out as a significant achievement.
Much of Okami's timelessness is due to the bold, brush-stroke-inspired art style. Okami was gorgeous even on PS2, and Okami HD is a faithful tribute to the game's everlasting beauty. When you're stationary, the screen is a painting. Slight, subtle movements of the air are portrayed with thin flowing lines, and your wolf-form pulses with whirls of energy. In movement, the game runs at a noticeably lower frame-rate, at least on Xbox One and PS4, but Okami's hyper-stylized version of feudal Japan is like seeing a painting come to life.
The game overall is an obvious homage to the Legend of Zelda series, but your ability to use the world as a literal canvas for your god-like brush strokes makes Okami feel inspired and unique rather than just a derivative Zelda clone. The drawings you create on-screen are simple enough that they don't stall the momentum of battle, and the mechanics are generous enough that even for someone as artistically untalented as myself, creating circles and lines makes me feel like I missed my calling as a painter.
But how does the updated Okami HD change the experience? Having not touched the game since it's PS2 release 11 years ago, Okami stays true to my memories, but I'm constantly surprised by how modern it feels. There are no story or gameplay changes for this update. There are some aspect ratio options, and the game has a sharper look than its PS2 predecessor, but otherwise this is a port of the original game. Besides the frame-rate issue, there are a few small issues that could've used a fix. Text speed is inconsistent--sometimes you can quickly speed through dialogue; other times, words crawl slowly along the screen, completely oblivious to your button-mashing attempts to speed them up. And the game oscillates between gently pointing you in the right direction with a map marker, or putting a huge, unmissable arrow in front of you that points the way to your next goal. But these are minor issues that don't detract from what is a sprawling modern masterpiece.
One thing remains blissfully unchanged about the game--there is no voice acting. Oddly, the game was dinged in our original review for its lack of voiceover, and to be fair, it released alongside other cinematic games with great performances such as Final Fantasy XII, Half-Life 2: Episode 1, and Bully. But the lack of voice acting in Okami insulates the game in some ways from its occasionally inconsistent characterizations and the general danger of overacting--which, as we've seen in more recent games like Xenoblade Chronicles 2, can pull down an otherwise solid story.
In remakes and remasters, sometimes games can feel like historical relics compared to current releases--they were great for their time, but they have some element that just doesn't hold up today. Or worse, your memory of a game had glossed over the flaws that stand out in stark relief once you pick up a controller today. But the years have only been more kind to Okami. It's a humorous piece of interactive folklore; a fast and loose take on Japanese mythology that I loved back in 2006 and that feels just as fresh and exciting today.


There has much been said about gratitude. It is the root of being positive. Sometimes it may be difficult to feel gratitude just because of the definition of it in your own mind. Recently I have come across the word "appreciation" in my readings and study. It feels easier to me at times to just appreciate my world than to place gratitude on it. Again, it is because of how my mind interprets and processes the word gratitude.
Either way, we are seeking to feel good, or at least better. In doing so we attract more that feels good, or better. And in doing so we attract more of the same. And on it goes. That is the Law of Attraction. Wherever your thoughts are, you are attracting more of the same.
So perhaps just appreciating what does feels good, looks good, tastes good, and so on, (for one can always find something if we truly look) will keep you on track of attracting more to appreciate and be grateful for.


Southern Illinois University Edwardsville is set in one of the "50 Safest College Towns in America," according to the 2015 SafeWise Report. Edwardsville, a city of approximately 24,650, ranked number 25 on the list of 50 towns.
SafeWise security experts coupled FBI crime statistics with research on safety-related programs and initiatives to determine the rankings. SIUE's launch of the Rave Guardian app was cited as an example of the University's commitment to safety.


Online shopping for goods and services is more common than ever before and if your business offers the opportunity for customers to order online, your eCommerce software has to be up to the job. Internet users today have high expectations and if they don't feel confident to engage with your business and make a purchase, they'll simply go elsewhere.
Your eCommerce solution has to represent your business to a remote visitor and it is your chance to establish your brand identity and perhaps more importantly, your reputation. When your website visitors engage with your online store, you have to be seen to deliver a seamless service to your customers so that they have confidence in you and they order from you again.
A smooth transaction journey should be automated to such a degree that you have template emails for all stages of the process, including auto-responses reaching out to visitors who have made failed or abandoned attempts to procure a product or service from you. This kind of auto-response enables you to deliver a better level of customer service that nurtures new business and ultimately leads to your success. By automating the transaction process you ensure visitors to your website have the shopping experience they expect.
There are plenty of off-the-shelf eCommerce solutions available on the market but how do you know what is the best solution for your business? Well, first of all you have to identify who your customers are and how best to communicate with them. What is the demographic of your customer in terms of age, marital status and level of income for example? This is the kind of information the best eCommerce platforms, solutions, and CMS software should deliver to best progress your customer service efforts, brand identity and ultimately your bottom line.
eCommerce solutions are rarely a case of one size fits all as all businesses are different in terms of brand identity and their unique selling point or USP. That usually means each business has a different 'voice' when they are communicating with customers and in order to reach out to an audience that is likely to purchase from you, it's essential to understand who they are. The analytics that are generally available with eCommerce platforms enables you to customize that information for your own purposes and also gives you invaluable insight into how your business can improve performance to increase conversion rates further.
It's as important to consider your buyers' experience when they buy from you online as it is to make any physical space you have somewhere customers enjoy shopping at. It is a fact that the success of internet businesses hinges on effective eCommerce, particularly in terms of fulfilling customer orders. Sending out the wrong items or running out of stock on a product in high demand sends out the wrong and often damaging signals to existing and prospective customers and can limit your future growth.

More changes at Laing O'Rourke

A handful of senior managers leave, including managing director of contractor's investment group
A handful of senior managers have left contractor Laing O'Rourke as part of an overhaul of the firm's senior management team.
Building understands the departures include Lisa Scenna, managing director of the Explore Investments Group, the contractor's PFI and asset management business.
It is understood that Duncan Symonds, infrastructure operations director, Lee Marks, commercial director, Paul Copeland head of rail, and David Hills, construction director, have also left.
A Laing O'Rourke spokesman did not deny the departures, but said: "We are not going to go into the individual details".
He added: "A handful of senior managers have left over recent months as our overall priorities and requirements have changed with the market.
"At the same time, we have had a number of senior people join the business recently, which have been reported on."
Building revealed in January that the contractor had hired Nick Down, the former boss of Carillion's Middle-Eastern business, as one part of a wide-ranging senior management reshuffle.
In addition Laing O'Rourke's northern UK boss, Callum Tuckett, took a new job as business unit leader for the UK construction business.
Earlier this year Laing O'Rourke announced it had hired former Olympic Delivery Authority construction boss Howard Shiplee, although it has not confirmed his exact role.
The changes are the latest in a series of reshuffles since the departure of Tony Douglas, former chief operating officer, in 2009 allowing chairman and chief executive Ray O'Rourke to retake direct control of the firm's operations.
The reshuffle appears to show the £3.3bn turnover firm refocusing following a period of turmoil. In the 2011 financial year the publicity shy firm laid off more than 5,000 of its 17,000 European staff.
Laing O'Rourke has had recent success winning contracts to build the £340m Cheesegrater tower and a £600m biomedical research facility in King's Cross, but it was forced to wind down its housing development arm due to low demand this year.

K&E Plastics is an industrial contract manufacturer for custom plastic machined parts located in Bennington, Vermont. Although they boast over 50 years of experience, they're outdated website lessened the perception of their expertise, inaccurately communicated their capabilities, and made them digitally invisible on search engines. A new manufacturing company website was key to outpacing their competitors.
This case study explores our web development strategy ensuring K&E Plastics not only received the best manufacturing website possible, but one that continues to provide them value through sustainable online lead generation.
Without a new manufacturing website design, K&E Plastics would have continued to be virtually invisible to customers searching for their service online. The site's confusing navigation also prevented visitors from finding important information about their services and even made it seem that their equipment was for sale. Combined with uncompelling content and a lack of a value proposition, their website wasn't providing value beyond that of an old brochure. What they needed was an affordable custom website design that would consistently get their brand in front of the users searching for their services with a high degree of urgency.
SEO-Targeted Site Structure & Content | Valuable, keyword-specific content pages, URL structure, and internal linking pattern to achieve top rankings on search engines results pages.
Clear Navigation & Compelling Content | New, user-friendly menu helps users quickly navigate site; combined with value-driven service descriptions and persuasive copy that drives action.
Responsive Website Design | New responsive web design that fits desktop computer screens and adapts to mobile phones and tablets, without sacrificing core site functionality.
Lead Generation | Well-crafted lead generation points motivate a high percentage of visitors to connect with K&E Plastics that otherwise would never have found them.
By drafting a website architecture focused on search engine optimized content, K&E Plastics would be able to rank above their competitors on search results pages. In combination with targeting key terms that drove high-value leads to their site, easy menu navigation, and compelling content, K&E soon attained more value from the Internet than they originally thought possible.
After launching their new website, K&E Plastics dominated search result pages in Q2, driving hundreds of new visitors to their site compared to their old site in Q1 2018.
New, easy-to-use navigation and action-driven content reduced the rate at which organic search visitors left without viewing other pages on the site, Q1 vs. Q3 2018.
The new mobile-friendly, responsive web design and easy navigation more than doubled the time visitors using mobile devices spent exploring K&E's website, Q1 vs. Q2 2018.
Compared to 0 from their old site, the new website averaged more than 4 bonafide leads per month from businesses who never interacted with K&E Plastics before.

ANN GIBNEY vs. EDWARD W. EVERSON & another.
Present: KNOWLTON, C. J., MORTON, LATHROP, LORING, & BRALEY, JJ.
Negligence. Metropolitan Sewerage Commissioners. Practice, Civil, Exceptions.
In an action against a contractor employed by the metropolitan sewerage commissioners for injury to property by the negligent and unskilful acts of persons employed by him in constructing a sewer, it is no defence that on a certain day the defendant sublet the contract to an independent contractor, if under the
terms of his contract he had no right to sublet it, and if there is evidence that the contract of subletting was not genuine and the jury find this to have been the case, and if also the work was carried on by the defendant himself for about two months before the alleged subletting and the defendant makes no request that the jury shall separate the damages up to and after that date.
If no action can be maintained against the metropolitan sewerage commissioners for injury to property by the negligent and unskilful acts of persons employed by them in the work of constructing a sewer, which in this case there was no occasion to consider, this does not help a contractor employed by the commissioners when sued for injury to property caused by such acts on the part of himself or his servants.
No exception lies to the entire charge of a judge.
TORT in three counts which are described in the first paragraph of the opinion. Writ dated February 24, 1902.
In the Superior Court the case was tried before Schofield, J. The defences relied upon by the defendants are stated in the opinion. At the close of the evidence the defendants asked the judge to make the following rulings:
First. The defendants having made a written contract with Upper to do the work, and placing Upper in the responsible charge of the work and workmen, are not liable for any injury suffered by the plaintiff caused by the negligence of Upper's servants, if there was such negligence. Second. That under the contract between the defendants and Upper, Upper had control of all blasting and explosions, and the defendants had no control over such blasting and explosions, and the defendants cannot be held liable for any negligence of Upper.
Third. If the work contemplated under the contracts could have been done in such a manner as not to injure the property of the plaintiff, the negligence of the sub-contractor, Upper, cannot be imputed to the defendants.
Fourth. All the work done by the defendants was done under the license conferred by St. 1889, c. 439, St. 1895, c. 406, and St. 1899, c. 424.
Fifth. The work done by the defendants was done under and by virtue of a contract with the State, acting by the metropolitan sewerage commission, and all the work was necessary, contemplated and called for by that contract. The work was done under a contract with the State, and the defendants cannot be held liable, as a matter of law, for doing the acts
necessarily contemplated and called for by such license and contract.
Sixth. Upon all the evidence the plaintiff cannot maintain this action.
The judge refused to rule as requested and submitted the case to the jury, who returned a verdict for the plaintiff in the sum of $250. The defendants alleged exceptions. The bill of exceptions, after stating the refusal of the rulings requested and printing the charge of the judge, stated that the defendants excepted to "the refusal to make the foregoing rulings," to "the foregoing instructions to the jury," and to "the submission of the case to the jury."
J. W. Keith, for the defendants.
I. C. Hersey, (T. E. Grover with him,) for the plaintiff.
LATHROP, J. This is an action of tort in three counts. The first count is for negligently and unskilfully blasting in the work of constructing a sewer in the town of Hyde Park, whereby injury was done to the cellar walls of the plaintiff's house in that town. The second count alleges that the defendants in connection with the work of constructing the sewer had a stationary engine and boiler near the plaintiff's house, and that the same had been so unskilfully operated that dense clouds of black smoke and cinders and large quantities of dust had come therefrom, thereby discoloring and disfiguring the house. The third count was for negligently diverting the rainwater by deposits of gravel and other material, and by pumping water so that it flooded the cellar of the plaintiff's house.
At the trial in the Superior Court the plaintiff put in evidence tending to show the injury done to her house according to the declaration.
The principal defence was that the defendants had sublet the contract to one Upper on June 11, 1900; that he was an independent contractor ; and that therefore they were not liable. By the defendants' contract with the metropolitan sewerage commissioners the defendants had no right to sublet their contract. Apart from this there was evidence that the contract with Upper was not a genuine contract, and this question was submitted to the jury. Again, it appeared that the defendants began work in April, 1900, and they did not deny that they continued it until
June 11, 1900; and there was no request that the jury should separate the damages up to and after that date.
Another contention is that the board of sewerage commissioners could not be sued ; but this is of no consequence in this case, and we need not consider it.
The only exceptions taken were to the refusal of the judge to give certain instructions requested, and to the instructions given. The entire charge appears to be reported. It is unnecessary to cite authorities in support of the proposition that an exception does not lie to an entire charge. The defendants have not pointed out in their brief any particular request which should have been given, but have argued the case generally.
We do not feel called upon to go over these requests in detail. It is enough to say that on the questions argued, we see no ground of exception.
Exceptions overruled.

Gusty winds persist, spreading fires in western U.S.
(Reuters) - Prime conditions for wildfires prevailed again on Wednesday in the western United States, where firefighters are battling to gain control over several large blazes that have forced the evacuation of more than 4,400 homes.
The largest and most threatening blaze, the 416 Fire, has scorched nearly 26,000 acres (10,522 hectares) of drought-parched grass, brush and timber at the edge of the San Juan National Forest near the southwestern Colorado town of Durango.
Wind gusts up to 25 miles per hour (40 kph), temperatures in the mid 80s (about 30 Celsius) and humidity of less than 15 percent are expected later on Wednesday, the National Weather Service said.
Fire crews by Wednesday morning had contained 15 percent of the fire, fire officials said.
Some 1,400 homes there remained under evacuation orders, after residents of 760 homes were allowed to return on Wednesday, La Plata County officials said.
The 416 Fire and a separate blaze burning nearby, the Burro Fire, also prompted state parks officials to close several wildlife areas to the public. The U.S. Forest Service shut down all 1.8 million acres (728,434 hectares) of the San Juan National Forest to visitors on Tuesday.
Across the state about 60 miles (95 km) west of Denver, a newer blaze called the Buffalo Fire prompted the evacuation of nearly 1,400 homes after blackening 91 acres (37 hectares), officials in Summit County said. Winds will gust up to 25 miles per hour later on Wednesday to fan this fire, officials said.
Its containment was listed at 0 percent by fire officials.
At least seven major wildfires were raging in parts of Colorado, marking the biggest concentration of roughly 30 blazes burning across nine Western states.
No people have been injured or structures lost in the Colorado fires.

Firefighters were hoping for some relief from a promising shift in weather patterns forecast for Friday, some of it associated with Hurricane Bud, which on Wednesday was off the Pacific coast of Mexico.
In southern Wyoming near the Colorado border, the Badger Creek Fire in Medicine Bow National Forest has grown to 5,200 acres (2,104 hectares), as evacuation orders were expanded to nearly 400 homes in Albany County, according to the Inciweb online U.S. fire information service.
The Wyoming fire containment was listed as 0 percent by fire officials.

Jace Kotsopoulos of the Guelph Gryphons is the U SPORTS Male Athlete of the Month for September 2018.
Kotsopoulos was crowned following a 24-hour online campaign, with the public casting ballots through U SPORTS social media channels.
Kotsopoulos entered this season as one of the most dangerous goal-scoring threats in U SPORTS men's soccer. And the fourth-year Economics major from Burlington, Ont., has more than lived up to the billing. Kotsopoulos currently leads all U SPORTS men's players with 14 goals this season, many of which have been critical to securing points for the No. 8-ranked Gryphons.
Kotsopoulos scored in six of his eight matches in September, finishing the month with 11 goals overall. He also became the University of Guelph men's all-time leading scorer when he bagged both goals in the Gryphons' 2-0 win over McMaster on Sept. 9. Kotsopoulos had 48 goals to that point, needing one to tie Guelph's all-time leader Robbie Murphy at 49. He got it in the 75th minute, heading a ball home from inside the area. But Kotsopoulos wasn't done. He established the new school record six minutes later when he took a through ball from teammate Jon Amoo, held off a defender on his shoulder, and coolly finished with his left foot into the bottom corner of the McMaster net.

Stanley Tucci joins Mandarin Oriental's global campaign
December 4, 2018: American actor, writer, producer and film director, Stanley Tucci, is the newest celebrity fan to join Mandarin Oriental's global advertising campaign "He's a Fan/She's a Fan".
The campaign elegantly connects Mandarin Oriental's well-recognized symbol - the fan - with international celebrities who regularly stay at the Group's hotels. In appreciation of their support, the Group donates to each celebrity's individual choice of charity. Mr. Tucci has chosen the global UN refugee agency, UNHCR to benefit.
Mr. Tucci has won three Emmy and two Golden Globe awards and has also had a successful career behind the camera, including writing and directing the critically acclaimed Final Portrait. Part of well-loved movies such as The Devil Loves Prada and Hunger Games, he is a self-confessed foodie, and has published several cook books and loves finding "perfect places to eat".
When asked to describe Mandarin Oriental, he simply refers to it as 'the lap of luxury', and cites his favourite hotel as Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London.
Mandarin Oriental's existing fans include Morgan Freeman, Cecilia Bartoli, Christian Louboutin, Liam Neeson, Michelle Yeoh, Jane Seymour, Kenzo Takada, Vivienne Tam, Dame Helen Mirren and Dev Patel among others.
