Best new bacon that's not called bacon.
Heritage breed Tamworth pigs are known for their thick bellies and excellent fat. In other words, they're great for bacon. And pancetta, despite the Italian name, is bacon through and through.
These particular beauties were raised without hormones or sub-therapeutic antibiotics at the Ozark Mountain Pork Cooperative in Osage County, Missouri. Back in Iowa, at the pork palace known as La Quercia, the bellies were dry cured with sea salt, pepper and spices. Dry curing—something rarely done with American pork bellies any more since it reduces moisture and weight—makes a much more intensely flavored cut than brine curing, the typical process.
Tamworth's flavor is concentrated, meaty and nutty. It's smoked over apple wood, which gives it a welcome sweetness not found in dry cured bacons which are smoked over pungent hickory. This is my pick for best new bacon. Even though it's not called bacon. But it is.
Note that this comes unsliced. You'll need to do some home carving.


Yoga retreats usually require a significant investment in terms of money and time, so it's natural to doubt your decision to attend one. Whether you are looking for a more meaningful way to spend your holiday, want to focus on your personal yoga practice or even try out yoga for the first time in life, a yoga retreat might be just the right choice for you – or it might not be.
I'll share a big secret with you: I've never been to a proper yoga retreat myself. When I knew it was the time for me to dive deeper into the teachings of yoga, I had the luxury of spending a few months in India, and that was when I stayed in Mysore to learn what I could from renowned teachers, fulfilling a dream of mine.
It was the time when I quit my job in Berlin and wanted to take a break to focus solely on my yoga practice and self-discovery. I called this journey "a purpose of not having a purpose" and it was a thoroughly planned sabbatical, that truly changed my life. If taking a few months off wasn't an option, however, I'd definitely consider going to a yoga retreat.
If yoga retreats are worth it or not, is also a question that I'm very often asked by my readers. There is truly no better answer to this question, than the one based on personal experience, and this is why I turned to yoga community for some objective insights about attending yoga retreats.
I asked five long-term yoga practitioners about their honest experience with yoga retreats, and if they think that they are truly worth it. Here is what they shared with me.
Morgan Balavage (E-RYT 500) is a yoga teacher, wellness coach, and intuitive healer trained in a variety of healing modalities, including Thai massage, yoga, guided meditation, and chakra alignment.
I have attended two yoga retreats, both hosted by teachers I knew exclusively through social media (I'd never gone to their classes in person). Even though the experiences were worth it for me, I likely won't attend another. The first, in the remote southern tip of Costa Rica, was much more rugged than I was expecting (I slept with the lights on to keep the cockroaches at bay), but I made some lifelong friends through the adventure. The host did an awesome job integrating us into the surroundings and creating a safe space for having an adventurous experience in a developing country, and my yoga practice improved exponentially. I didn't really go in with any expectations, but I came away from it with a tribe.
The second, 10 days spent on the beach in Bali, featured much more luxurious accommodations (with the price to match). The yoga teacher had hosted retreats for years, and lacked the enthusiasm of the teacher who hosted the Costa Rica retreat. She asked for requests for yoga poses we wanted to work on, and then ignored the requests and taught whatever she wanted. There were some lovely moments, but I decided I'd rather have more freedom in my travels and now take myself on my own retreats, staying somewhere warm and going to a variety of local yoga studios to get a sense of the local flavor.
Were they valuable experiences, wherein I learned a lot about myself, deepened my yoga practice, made some friends, and had an adventure? Absolutely, in that sense, they were worth it, especially since I feel like I've have the experience and don't need it anymore.

Practicing a few times daily allowed me to go deeper into my practice than I ever had before. It helped me be able to note the subtle differences of how my body feels from one day to another and gave me space and tranquility to connect with those spaces. The beauty of yoga retreats isn't only about the yoga though. It's also about the kind of people you connect with there and the healthy food that fuels your body during your stay. When I go home from a yoga retreat, I feel better acquainted with my inner self and ready to take action to make sure I'm living truly in line with that inner me I've found.
I have practiced yoga for 10 years and have been on many life-changing retreats. Each retreat experience has taught me something new but it wasn't until one specific retreat in Tulum that gave me a new perspective on the type of retreat experience that feels most fulfilling; one that is introspective, rejuvenating, and healing, yet lighthearted and fun. Retreats are worth it when curated thoughtfully because they provide a completely different travel/vacation experience. It's an opportunity to gain a new perspective from the people you'd perhaps otherwise not have met, to explore, and learn/do something new. A retreat is a form of self-care that allows people to reflect, revitalize their natural energy and refuel their inspiration.
Before I became a Yoga instructor myself, yoga retreats were a great way for a single person to go on a vacation. You could be in a group or by yourself, have an itinerary of fun things to do or just go off on your own, and you always had someone to eat with. I'd say yoga retreats are definitely worth it; I went on one to Costa Rica and met the man who would become my husband, who was also on the retreat! That was thirteen years ago and we've been on many retreats since then.
Having been involved in yoga retreats as a host, teacher, and a participant for more than two decades, I can tell you that the notion of a yoga retreat has come to refer to a wide-range of yoga-related events, from leisurely vacations with a daily yoga class thrown in to spiritual retreats that involve a full schedule of practices and everything in between.
Are you interested in traveling to an exotic destination with free time for relaxing and sightseeing? Or retreating to a spa or a residential yoga centre for a few days of self-care? Are you looking for a guided, immersive experience into yoga? Or something more relaxed and unstructured?
Schedule – What is the balance of yoga time and free time?
Structure – Are you interested in having more time alone or in organized group activities?
Location and Facilities – This includes the accommodations, of course, but also the yoga space – is there a dedicated and well-equipped space for yoga practice? Meditation?
Transportation – Some retreat sites can be very remote, make sure you're aware ahead of time what's involved in getting to the retreat and what support the host offers to help arrange transportation.
And, of course, the Yoga – It's important to find out about your teachers. If you don't already know them, try and take a class with them personally or get some references to speak with.
I'm not into yoga that much to be able to go on a trip to do it but if I was on vacation and heard about a yoga class on the beach or somewhere interesting I may be interested in going and trying it out.
I've been to a couple of yoga retreats before and yes i agree they're not for everybody but i personally love them. Thanks for sharing.
I have never been to a yoga retreat before so it was interesting to read what these practitioners thought about them. I agree that a good retreat must have a good teacher. I remember trying yoga in India, where the teacher was amazing. When I returned back home I went to my local gym, but after one lesson I decided it wasn't for me. I think it could have been the teacher.
You are right Joanna, it's all about the teacher … that is why I always recommend to look for a teacher, instead of looking for a "place", if you are taking yoga practice seriously.
I've had wonderful experiences at yoga retreats, both as a teacher and as a student. For me, the key is to be open to the experience.
I have actually always been curious about yoga retreats. I recently got into yoga more and it has been changing my life. Thanks for the helpful info and input.
I wonder if we have Yoga retreats here in Japan. It would be interested in trying one.

Snort creator remains guiding force behind network detection system
Martin Roesch remains the guiding force behind nearly all of the improvements made to Snort, which is at the heart of Sourcefire's network detection system. Despite business pressures that could potentially sidetrack any vendor's technology improvements, Roesch guides Snort with a steady hand. He created Snort as an open source project in 1998 and in 2001 he founded Columbia, Md.-based Sourcefire Inc. to sell appliances and software that uses the Snort engine. In an interview with SearchSecurity.com, Roesch said improvements are mainly his ideas and are shaped by the exposure he has to users of his tool, other developers of intrusion prevention and detection engines and the open source community. Sourcefire has made a number of improvements to its system, adding support for both on premise and cloud-based virtualization and other improvements to accelerate its speed and extend its protection capabilities. In this interview, Roesch talks about upcoming changes to the backbone of Snort's engine and how closer integration with vulnerability management vendor Qualys adds deeper analysis of threats identified by the network detection system.
Robert Westervelt
What is your vision of intrusion prevention in the future? I know Snort is now more than just intrusion prevention isn't it?
Yes. Snort has been an IDS/IPS engine since 2004 when we baked in the IPS functionality. The difference between IDS and IPS is more of configuration not of function. Our engine works equally well either way and uses the same code running in either mode. As far as adding other features like DLP for content inspection, we've been adding that as well. We're going where the requirements take us. We work with the open source community, we work with our customers and we hear what they are looking for and we implement the things we think will work for them. These features get added on over time and I think everybody benefits from it. In an interview last year you said you want to build network security applications on top of the platform. You were referring to SnortSP. Where are you at with that project?
SnortSP we've been refactoring it. In early performance testing we realized that we didn't like what we were seeing from a performance perspective so we've been working on refactoring it to get to the performance envelope that we really want to see. The concept behind the SnortSP project was to build a common platform for building network traffic analysis apps and have them to be able to operate cooperatively on the same platform and same memory space so that they can share information about the real time environment that they were seeing and protecting. It was about being able to add things like DLP, reputation filtering or client-side inspection and really any network facing app that you would want to do that would involve deep-packet inspection. In theory it could be stuff as diverse as running a Web application firewall or even a vulnerability scanner. So the basic idea behind SnortSP was to be able to bring that to the table.
My thinking is driven by exposure to people in the community and other people who have developed intrusion detection/prevention engines in the industry and also the open source community.
Martin Roesch
founder, CTOSourcefire Inc.
If an organization is going to invest in Sourcefire 3D and Snort, is there an understanding that they are going to also need to make an investment in another person or people to manage it?
Yes. I guess that shouldn't be a surprising thing at this point. We're 16 years down the road for network intrusion detection and prevention. It comes with a price tag of at least a person to babysit it once in a while. What we've been trying to do is reduce the amount of interaction required to get value out of the technology. The root problems associated with the tuning headache and the false positive headache boils down to asking people to keep their prevention systems up to date with a network environment that is evolving in real time. We build up a comprehensive network map of the environment and then we use that map to do things like tune our sensors, so the sensors that you can buy from Sourcefire can tune themselves. We also use it to do automatic data analysis. When we get an event in from Snort, we analyze that data so that we know about the target. We can rate and prioritize how important it is in your environment at that point in time. So the net effect of that is that we've taken away the tuning burden from people and then we do the impact assessment to reduce the stuff that remains down to the data that is actually important to the environment. You have talked about working on a new detection engine for Snort. What is being changed and why does Snort need a new detection engine?
It's a bit esoteric, but the detection engine model that snort uses today is one that is built around buffering the types of traffic and doing pattern matching to localize ourselves within the network protocol streams and using anchor points that we find in the data streams to try to detect attacks. The model that I would like to go to is more of a hierarchical protocol inspection model that reduces the amount of buffering involved and essentially does protocol decomposition instead of using our buffering and pair matching system that we've been using for the last 10 years. It's much less memory intensive. The net of it is that we believe we will be able to go faster and inspect deeper than we can today with this new engine model. How much of the changes that you make to Snort comes from the Snort community and how much of it is more of a business driver?
Actually, none of the above. In terms of driving the new detection engine design; that was mostly my own ideas that I kind of developed over the last 10 or 12 years of working on Snort and it's a "if you had it to do over again what would you do differently" kind of approach to the problem. What it's design reflects is the maturing of my thought on the topic than anything else. The community has never been real vocal about what kind of detection model you would use and they've never been real vocal about the structure of things like streaming assemblers and things like that. That's really down in the weeds kind of stuff and most people are operating at the level of making it talk to a database or getting a detection plug-in that works in the existing framework. The Snort 3 concept and SnortSP is really the refinement of a lot of my thinking and a lot of my thinking is driven by exposure to people in the community and other people who have developed intrusion detection/prevention engines in the industry and also the open source community. Sourcefire announced integration with QualysGuard a year ago and this year you've added a connector piece, making integration easier. How does combining Sourcefire IDS/IPS with vulnerability data improve its capabilities?
Our RNA technology discovers the network and builds that network map of what you've got out there. One of the things that it does as a byproduct of its operation is it builds up a vulnerability map of the network that it's observing. We use the vulnerability map for automated tuning of the snort engine and the impact assessment, looking at the real time event stream coming into our defense center and using that to provide real time prioritization for events. The integration with QualysGuard allows us to import vulnerability data discovered by Qualys directly into the map so that we have a positive identification of the vulnerabilities instead of just a vulnerability imprint. That allows us to have even more accurate tuning of the detection engine as well as better impact assessment capability.

Damian Lillard says he'll be 'pissed off' if he doesn't make the All-Star team
By Brett PollakoffJan 29, 2015, 5:20 PM EST
The reserves for this year's NBA All-Star teams will be announced on Thursday night on TNT at 7:00 p.m. ET, and at least one player admitted that he won't be at all pleased if he doesn't hear that his name has been called.
Damian Lillard should be in; he's been the best player on a very good Blazers team, which figures to be represented by LaMarcus Aldridge, as well.
But if for some reason the coaches go in another direction, Lillard will simply use the snub as motivation for him to turn it up a notch in the second part of the season.
From Casey Holdahl of Blazers.com:
The waiting is old hat for Aldridge, who has played in the last three All-Star games, but Lillard, who was named to his first All-Star team in his second season, is just a tad bit antsy for the announcement.
"I wouldn't say nervous," said Lillard. "I feel like I've done what I needed to do. Anxious? A little bit, just to see if it's going to happen or not. I feel like it is, but there's nothing like that moment when it actually does. That's kind of what I'm waiting for." …
"If I do make it, I'll be excited," said Lillard. "I'm looking forward to being in another All-Star game. If I don't, I'm going to be pissed off and you'll see a re-energized Damian Lillard after the break. I'll be re-energized anyway, but if I don't make it, you'll see it even more."
For what it's worth, all of us at PBT saw Lillard as worthy of making the squad. But in a crowded backcourt field that includes Chris Paul, Mike Conley and Klay Thompson, it's of course possible that he ends up missing the cut.
Before Thompson broke out with that NBA record performance, I thought he'd be the one on the outside looking in. I just didn't see the coaches snubbing Paul, Westbrook, or Lillard to get Klay into the mix, and now with Kobe Bryant done for the season, he would have been named to the All-Star game as an injury replacement, regardless.
But now, I think the coaches don't ignore Thompson, while another guy gets snubbed before ultimately being named as an All-Star in Bryant's absence. That may or may not be Lillard, but either way, it'll be intriguing to see how the coaches saw things when the results of their voting is revealed later this evening.

FTC's New Anti-Greenwashing, Good-for-Business Green Guides
Oct 12 2010 November 12, 2010
The U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has released its long-awaited draft guidance on environmental marketing. The so-called "Green Guides" tell companies how to prevent misleading customers—and avoid FTC actions against them.
Why now? The FTC says consumers are confused about environmental claims such as "sustainable" or "offset," which lack consistent rules for usage. In response, the FTC's proposed guidance does three things:
Requires claims to be substantiated. Companies should communicate on specific issues for which they provide competent and reliable scientific evidence and avoid ambiguous umbrella terms like "green" or "eco-friendly."
Prescribes action on targeted issues. While the FTC leaves methodology mostly to companies, it advises on a few issues where deception is rife and solutions are particularly obvious. For example, the guides say that if companies generate renewable energy onsite and then sell their environmental attributes separately, they shouldn't also say that they use that renewable energy themselves. Categories of specific advice include: certifications and seals, degradability, compostability, ozone-safe/ozone-friendly, recyclability, free-of/non-toxic, renewable materials, renewable energy, and carbon offsets. See the FTC's cheat sheet.
Defines where to tread carefully. The FTC acknowledges that some issues are difficult to provide blanket guidance on. For example, life-cycle assessments and ecolabeling are complex and require context, while the determination of carbon offset quality may be better handled by agencies with more expertise. In cases where the FTC "lacks sufficient information on which to base guidance," it promises to analyze claims on a case-by-case basis.
What does this direction mean for business? I asked three individuals. Kevin Myette, director of product integrity at outdoor retailer REI, told me: "Guidance on green marketing claims has been extremely loose for years, and as a result, industry and marketers have operated virtually unchecked for too long. The FTC's action to further define the rules is not a bad thing as they are only asking for the truth."
Stanford Graduate School of Business Professor Erica Plambeck was similarly hopeful. She told me that the guidance "will increase incentives for retailers like Walmart to invest in the measurement of environmental performance and to provide detailed information about environmental performance to consumers. Transparency will lead to improvement."
Finally, Dara O'Rourke, founder of the Good Guide—a product-rating initiative—said that more FTC involvement isn't only good for consumers, but also for business. That's because "the more there is transparency, the more the leading firms will do well in the marketplace. It's a win for smart, thoughtful, progressive companies. This is basic 'Econ 101'."
What to do next: In the near term, leave any suggestions you have for finalizing the Green Guides below (with your name and affiliation) or contact me, and we'll aggregate and submit your suggestions to the FTC before the comment period closes on December 10.

Advances in technology have helped to create a biomimetic structure known as white composite filling to work within the biological system of the mouth when fixing broken or damaged teeth and to mimic the natural environment of the mouth by having the same look and feel of real teeth. In addition to having a great, natural look, white composite fillings have not been shown to cause any additional harm later on.
longevity. However, over time it has proven to corrode and fracture teeth, lead to decay and is considered unattractive to look at. The oral fluids found in our mouths often cause the dental amalgam to corrode and leak, thus breaking the seal between the existing tooth structure and the silver filling. Eventually, cavities can begin to form between the corroded amalgam and tooth structure where the broken seal exists. Once this begins, it doesn't take long for a process of decay to set in. Dental amalgam has also shown to slowly expand over time, causing small fractures in the existing tooth structure. If left unaddressed, the effects are disastrous.
White composite fillings are stronger, safer and more natural looking. So say goodbye to "metal mouth" and hello to a healthy, new smile with white composite fillings.

Big Wrist Android Smartwatch for Men & Women
By W-XTRA STORE Dec 13, 2021
5 Best Smartwatches for Big Wrists
Buying a standalone smartwatch online would have been much easier if you had a VR set to try it on your wrist and evaluate how it looks. Taking the decision would have been much easier for persons with large wrists (mostly men). If you have a large wrist, the following smartwatches are for you:
1. DM100 Smartwatch
DM100 by Hazzler is one of the top android smartwatches with a widescreen display. The body of the wearable is made of zinc alloy, with a PC rear cover. It has two tactile buttons on the side and a 5 MP front-facing camera. The smartwatch is essentially a tiny smartphone worn around your wrist. It is comfortable for the ones who have big wrists. The overall body is IP67 waterproof, splash-proof, rain-proof, and dust-proof. It consists of the MTK6739 Quadcore processor with 32 GB of storage space and 3 GB of RAM to power the DM100 smartwatch, which runs on Android OS. With its 4G LTE connectivity, the smartwatch can make and receive calls and messages on its own. The compatibility with nano-SIM cards, you may receive calls and texts directly on your smartwatch, eliminating the need for your phone.
The smartwatch's battery is a 2880mAh lithium polymer battery with at least several days of battery life.
2. DM20 Smartwatch
The Hazzler DM20 smartwatch offers distinct traits that make it a quick, agile, and creative solution for everyone. It's an Android smartwatch designed for men, women, and teenagers with large wrists. Its nylon strap gives comfort and a fashionable appeal to the user experience.

3.Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2
The design of the Samsung Galaxy Active 2 is beautiful. Because of its aluminum housing, it is exceptionally light. The touch spinning bezel is a standout feature. The bands may be swapped out and are really comfy. The 44mm version is appropriate for extra-large wrists, including those measuring 9, 10, and 11 inches. The Active two is built to last. It can absorb stress, be soaked in water, and take falls from great heights. The battery life is almost five days, which is reduced to a few hours if the GPS and Cellular options are enabled
4. Samsung Galaxy Watch
The Samsung Galaxy Watch is the company's most cheap watch, costing approximately half the price of the Active 2. It's a huge watch by any standard, but the big, sporty style is ideal for a thick wrist and a heavy build. Like the Active Watch 2, the straps are easily interchangeable. Overall, this watch appears to be in good condition. It has a hefty design that does not make it any less comfy. Though a tad weighty, the watch's superior build quality is ideal for all-day wear. The watch's distinguishing feature is its sturdy construction. It meets all main water and scratch resistance criteria.

A type of intensive therapy that asks children with unilateral cerebral palsy (CP) to learn and practice magic tricks may help improve their hand and arm function and enhance their ability to do everyday tasks, a study reports.
The study, "Upper Limb Function of Children with Unilateral Cerebral Palsy After a Magic-Themed HABIT: A Pre-Post-Study with 3- and 6-Month Follow-Up," was published in the Journal of Physical & Occupational Therapy in Pediatrics.
Children with unilateral CP have movement limitations mainly on one side of the body, affecting their ability to perform daily activities that require the use and coordination of both hands.
Hand-arm bimanual intensive therapy, or HABIT, is based on the principles of motor learning theory and neuroplasticity through structured, playful, and activity-based tasks involving two hands. HABIT includes motor learning principles of task selection, a structured practice of grading tasks, feedback, and home practice. In this way, children are engaged in fun activities and supportive environments that are different from typical therapy.

Entitled, unfocused, and difficult to manage...These are often words associated with millennials in the workplace. And yet, despite the bad reputation, millennials are growing older, becoming parents and are starting to step into leadership and management positions. In fact, as of last year, millennials officially became the the largest generation and are expected to make up 75% of the workforce by 2025.
According to a study conducted by Workplace Trends, 91% of millennials want to have a leadership role in their company, yet 71% of millennials are unhappy with how their leadership skills are being developed at work. As the most purpose-driven generation willing to challenge the status quo on a daily basis, it's time to celebrate the benefits that we can bring as millennials to our workplace and step into our leadership potential.
Whether you're a millennial trying to find your feet as a new leader or want to find and grow your leadership voice, join leadership coach, podcast host and TEDx speaker Mark Leruste, for an eye-opening introductory class on how to unleash your inner leader as a millennial in the workplace.


1. Existence is a positive property in all worlds.
2. God of a world is defined as the sum total of all positive properties in a world.
3. At least something exists in every world.
4. So a God exists in every world.
a. Point 1 cannot be accepted. Existence is defined as a positive property. A negative property exits. So what is it? Positive or negative?
b. Point 2 cannot be accepted. Why restrict God to only positive properties? If God is limited, then how can he be God? Defining God as a limited entity is not acceptable.
c. Why bring in "world" here? Why not apply the logic to the collection of everything that exists? Then the same argument will lead to one God for the entire universe, which is better.
2. At least something exists and is conscious. To deny this, the denier has to exist and be conscious. So it cannot be denied.
Once you have defined God as Existence itself, then the question "Does God exist?" is equivalent to "Does Existence exit?", which has to be obviously true. Advaita Vedanta does the same thing and Godel also seems to do the same thing. Advaita Vedanta's premises and conclusion are more generic and cleaner than Godel's.

The federal Department of Infrastructure and Transport today released its annual State of Australian Cities report, which this year says Australia is greener, more spread out and more reliant on the mining sector.
Looking for a good place to do business? Then look no further than Australia's cities, which account for 80% of the nation's economic activity. But get ready to look beyond the city centre for growth opportunities, as most new jobs are now being generated in outer urban areas.
Those insights are two of many contained in 2011's State of Australian Cities report (very slow 22MB PDF download), issued today by the federal Department of Infrastructure and Transport.
The report notes that about 85% of Australians continue to live within 50 kilometres of the coast and that inner-city areas in Perth, Melbourne and Sydney are growing fast thanks to a shift into higher-density housing.
The report also found that the finance sector remains Australia's dominant industry, with mining now ahead of manufacturing as the second most-significant industry.
We're also greener. "Australians have been consuming less energy per capita, particularly that generated by coal, recovering more waste from landfill per capita, producing less household waste, consuming less water and have cleaner air in their cities than they have done previously," the report says.
Another interesting factoid the report mentions is that heatwaves are the most threatening natural disaster.

Ford calls mental health detainee 'animal'
Allison Jones
KITCHENER, Ont.—Ontario's premier said Friday that people with mental illness who commit crimes should be in jail, calling a patient who had been detained at a mental health hospital for killing his roommate an "animal."
Doug Ford teed off for a second time on the case of Zhebin Cong, who was found not criminally responsible for killing his roommate with a meat cleaver in 2014.
Cong, who has schizophrenia, was an in-patient at the secured forensic unit of the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health in Toronto but failed to return on July 3 from an unaccompanied trip into the community.
City police have said he has left the country.
Last month Ford called into a talk radio show to discuss the incident, calling the man a "nutcase."
The premier was criticized for that language and when asked Friday if he regrets it, he said not at all.
"It's about time politicians stop hiding behind podiums and being politically correct," Ford said.
"He grabbed a meat cleaver and chopped up his roommate . . . just imagine if it was your daughter that this animal chopped up."
Ford said federal laws need to be tougher to deal with people like Cong.
"We've got to put these people away and if they have mental health issues they can be dealt with in jail—simple as that," he said.
"I'm passionate about helping people who have true mental illness . . . Stop sympathizing with axe-wielding murderers and all this bleeding heart stuff."
CAMH has announced an external review of procedures for granting passes and privileges as several patients have managed to walk away recently. An internal review is also underway.
The hospital has defended the use of community passes, describing them as an important part of the care a patient receives and that supports rehabilitation and recovery.
When people are found not criminally responsible because of mental illness, review boards manage their cases.
The independent tribunals made up of at least five people, including at least one psychiatrist, can order that the person remain detained in a hospital, with varying levels of privileges, release the person on a conditional discharge or order an absolute discharge, based on risk.
The review board system lets people found not criminally responsible into the community once they're deemed ready for short periods of time under close supervision to see how well they can cope.
In Cong's case, police have said CAMH told them Cong presented a low risk to public safety, but the review board said in its most recent decision in April that he continued to pose a significant threat to public safety.

The airport offers the longest general aviation runway in the Atlanta area. Recent airport improvements include new taxiways, and a new control tower is now under construction. The airport is managed under the guidance of the Cobb County Board of Commissioners, the company reported.


Paul ends this letter with his care for the church. In particular, he reminds them of the harmony they must have – and tells them how to get it.
But we request of you, brethren, that you appreciate those who diligently labor among you, and have charge over you in the Lord and give you instruction, and that you esteem them very highly in love because of their work. Live in peace with one another. We urge you, brethren, admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with everyone. See that no one repays another with evil for evil, but always seek after that which is good for one another and for all people. Rejoice always; pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. Do not quench the Spirit; do not despise prophetic utterances. But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good; abstain from every form of evil. Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass. Brethren, pray for us. Greet all the brethren with a holy kiss. I adjure you by the Lord to have this letter read to all the brethren. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
If there is dissension among the spiritual leaders of the church, the strain on the body of Christ is very great. History shows us that such dissension is not at all rare, unfortunately. The man in the pew often assumes that he can do nothing about this. However, Paul here gives us advice on the care and feeding of teachers and preachers.
Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to His disciples, saying: "The scribes and the Pharisees have seated themselves in the chair of Moses; therefore all that they tell you, do and observe, but do not do according to their deeds; for they say things and do not do them.
Despite the fact that the scribes and Pharisees are clearly called hypocrites, Jesus tells us that we must obey them. Why? Because he knows that we will tend to join them in hypocrisy if we don't.
Indeed, it is consistently taught that the Christian is to honor those in authority over them – whether civil or spiritual. As all authority is given to Christ, to honor those in authority because He commanded it is to honor Him as well. It shows that you are willing and able to take upon yourself the discipline of being a Christian. How much more, then, should you honor and love those Christ has placed over you within his church?
Indeed, even if you suffer for it, you will be rewarded as you suffer for Christ's sake. Suffering in obedience to his commands summons up his strengthening in this life and reward in the life to come.
It is a very obvious fact: many whom we hire to serve us bring us pain and grief. You hire a dentist to work on your teeth; he causes you pain. You hire a doctor; he invades your body with a knife. Why, then, should the one whom God has called into service on your behalf be any less painful? Can one teach the Bible without causing people to think upon their sins and evil habits? Is such thought welcome – or do we let sleeping worms lie?
Now notice something, please. You pay the dentist quite well; mine makes a very fine living. The doctor also lives well. In this you show how much you value their work. Indeed, if you are long with them, you will come to think quite highly of them. How much more, then, should the shepherds of your soul be honored, thanked and loved?
One might object: I know how to reward the doctor and the dentist; how do I honor the teacher or pastor? "Esteem him highly in love," says Paul. A teacher's life is one which is often in conflict and weariness; love and encouragement go a long way.
Let me give you an example: suppose you receive a letter which announces to you that you (of all people) have been determined to be the rightful king of some country. You are told that you should come to the palace immediately and claim the crown (and all the money that goes with it). You immediately leave; upon arriving, you discover that the palace is indeed magnificent – and locked. Now of course, being the king, you don't carry the keys to the place with you; you're the king, right? And kings are far too dignified to bang on the door. But it's dark, and it's about to rain – and just as you begin to worry, some little guy comes along with the key to the door. He announces himself to be the royal doorkeeper, and opens the door for you. Perhaps it's a dull job, being the royal doorkeeper, but you have reason to thank him.
Your teachers and pastors are just that: we are privileged to be the doorkeepers of heaven. It is not given to us to keep anyone out, for our Lord has commanded that "whosoever will" should be admitted, and that all who are faithful will reign with Him. Surely, then, you can do as Paul asks, to appreciate and esteem them highly. With the conflict we get, we need it.
· We are to admonish the "unruly." The word in the Greek means those who are under authority – but not arranged right. It means those who are rebelling against the proper authority. We often see such people as heroic sorts; in fact, they have failed to discipline themselves, It is no favor to them if we applaud them.
· We are to encourage the faint-hearted. Often we find those whose burdens seem great to them. As the Holy Spirit encourages and comforts us, we should do likewise with those who need it. We cannot repay God for his comfort; we can only pass it along.
· We are to help the weak. Those in illness, those who are powerless in prison (with or without bars), those whose faith is small – all these we are called to help.
Could I suggest, please, that your patience begin with your pastor?
Patience is much easier when the object is either loved or lovely. Patience with those who are obnoxious is much more difficult. Indeed, one suspects the Almighty of giving us a lout or two to deal with – so that we will learn patience with all.
Look at it this way: suppose you get a call from someone who wants to visit you at home. He asks directions. How much more detailed are your directions if you know that he is blind? If your patience increases with the physically blind, how much more should it increase for the spiritually blind?
As my wife will tell you, we all burn the French fries once in a while. It really helps if your husband treats those French fries not as a failure but as a burnt offering.
How do we overcome evil? As always, with good. The supreme example of this is Christ on the Cross. By his forgiveness there we have life. Only the God who is love could do that – and only by his power can we do likewise.
If your church leadership is sound, and the brothers love one another, there is yet one area to be brought into harmony. That's you, yourself. You must be in harmony with God.
If you're one of those sour persimmons who feels really stuck on a planet full of sinners, you have a problem. Christ calls you not to gloom and doom but to a life of joy.
He tells us to rejoice always. Why "always?" Because you are rejoicing in the Lord, and the Lord is eternal. All that is eternal is from God, who is good to his children.
Next, we are commanded to pray without ceasing. The phrasing in the Greek might better be translated, "without omission." Meaning, of course, that we are to pray on all occasions. Bring everything to the Lord.
Finally, we are to give thanks – whether or not we feel thankful. The Lord is gracious to us; all of eternity is ours with him. Our trials are small, our home to come is great – for this, give thanks.
Be sure it gets enough air.
Don't let the wind blow it out.
Be sure you have plenty of oil.
The church of that time would have seen it the same way: the lamp cannot be kept in an airtight compartment, separate from the other portions of our lives. It must be with us if we are to see by it. But we must protect it from the winds of doctrine – every new theory and idea to come along. And without the oil of grace, the light will soon go out. The same oil that anoints the sick feeds the flame of the lamp.
If others have reason to admonish us, then surely we must pay attention. But not everything we hear comes from God; we must test it against the Scripture to see if it is sound. If it is good, we must hold to it. If it is evil, we must reject it, at whatever cost. If we do – we will indeed rejoice in the Day of the Lord, for we will have the victory with Him.
We are not here to "be good for goodness' sake." There is a purpose in our doing good. The Day is coming; the Day of the Lord. Paul then, and your teachers now, want you to be ready for that day. How?
You are to be sanctified (holy) in Christ. Recognize that by your own efforts you cannot make yourself holy and pure; only Christ can do that. But recognize also that you have your part to play.
You are to be blameless. There are two ways to achieve this: either we give no injury to anyone, or we are forgiven. We should earnestly seek the first and graciously accept the second.
We are to be complete – the love of Christ should guide our hearts, use our strength of body and be with our spirits. Thus all of each of us will be entirely his on that day. May the complete "us" be completed in Him.


Brazil had its largest coffee harvest ever in 2018—61.7 million bags, equivalent to 3.7 million tonnes—surpassing its previous record for an on-year crop in 2016 by about 20 percent, a report by CONAB shows. The harvest also topped 2017's off-year crop by 37 percent. Coffee, especially the arabica variety, hasalternating years of heavy and light crops. Arabica is Brazil's dominant coffee type, and production of this variety was 47.5 million bags, equal to 2.85 million tonnes. Production of the robusta variety, also called conilon, was 14.2 million bags, or 852,000 tonnes. Bountiful flowering, helped by favorable weather, and the expanded use of more productive, cloned varieties, contributed to the bumper crop, according to CONAB, which provides Brazilian subnational agricultural commodities data.


Even though the primary focus of Excelsior has always been on programming languages and their implementation – compilers, managed runtimes (JVM), tooling, etc., our Professional Services Department also offers Java consulting and undertakes long-term application development projects. One such project involved a large distributed system for enterprise email filtering and archiving. The system was implemented in Java and works on top of JBoss, with a large number of automatically scheduled tasks.
At some point the system experienced severe performance deterioration during massive import of email messages. However, our ability to diagnose the problem was substantially undermined by the fact that literally thousands of concurrent threads were running when the problem manifested itself. Isolation of the respective code portions into separate applications was not possible either. A really advanced performance analysis tool was needed.

Land mines have long been unconventional and completely controversial in terms of warfare. Besides being quite deadly during mass conflict, they have become known for killing and injuring innocent civilians, ensuring some portions of land are unusable for many, many years, and sometimes worse. Unfortunately, a lot of landmines are left over once a war has come to a conclusion, and people still die regularly. Here are ten countries with far too many landmines littered throughout them.
Somalia has long had a landmine problem, which has resulted in a lot of conflicts starting. The first mine was laid in 1964, and since then they have continued to be set down due to internal and regional conflicts.
Mozambique experienced nearly 30 years of war, and is known for being one of the poorest countries in Africa, despite receiving a lot of foreign aid. Much of the farmland has become unusable due to the tens of thousands of mines.

Mestre Rabolú, pseudônimo de Joaquín Amórtegui Valbuena (11 de outubro de 1926 — 8 de janeiro de 2000), foi um esoterista, palestrante e escritor colombiano. Sucedeu a Samael Aun Weor na coordenação do Movimento Gnóstico Cristão Universal. Como escritor, publicou diversos livros sobre os gnosticismo.

Biografia
Valbuena nasceu e viveu na Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta na Colômbia, vivendo da agricultura de subsistência, até tornar-se discípulo do antropólogo e esoterista colombiano Samael Aun Weor, fundador do Movimento Gnóstico Cristão Universal, que se estabeleceu na região em 1952 com a intenção de criar um centro de estudos gnósticos. Valbuena ganhou a consideração de Weor, sendo citado textualmente no seu livro As Três Montanhas, no capítulo 44 ("Conversando no México").<ref>{{citar livro|título=As Três Montanhas|ultimo=Samael Aun Weor|primeiro=|editora=Movimento Gnóstico Cristão Universal do Brasil na Nova Ordem|ano=1994|edicao=2a|local=São Paulo|página=|páginas=228 a 234|capitulo=Capitulo 44 "Conversando no Mexico"|isbn=85-85353-13-9|citacao=Momentos depois, Joaquim Amortegui V., missionário gnóstico internacional e grande paladino desta tremenda cruzada pela Nova Era de Aquário, e minha insignificante pessoa ..."}}</ref>

Em 1976 o Mestre Samael, fundador e coordenador do Movimento Gnóstico Cristão Universal, reconhece Joaquín Amórtegui Valbuena como Mestre Rabolú, e a ele outorga autoridade para as fazer mudanças necessárias na instituição. ,

Em 1978, após a morte do Mestre Samael Aun Weor, o Mestre Rabolú passou a coordenar os trabalhos da organização gnóstica, intitulada Movimento Gnóstico Cristão Universal. O novo coordenador criou então uma seleção básica de obras autorizadas para o estudo gnóstico.

O Mestre Rabolú reformulou, em suas bases, a organização gnóstica conferindo-lhe um caráter diferenciado do que pretendiam os diretores do passado, dentre estes a viúva e os filhos do Mestre Samael.

Escreveu diversos livros voltado aos membros e estudantes no Movimento Gnóstico, sempre enfatizando a prática e a vivência dos ensinamentos, ao invés da simples teoria.  Escreveu seu último livro em 1998, Hercolubus ou Planeta Vermelho, direcionado a toda humanidade no qual sintetiza seus ensinamentos. Publicado em 40 países, o livro anuncia o advento de um planeta que, orbitando dois sois, o nosso sistema solar e em sol vizinho, irá se aproximar da Terra e provocará um choque magnético inevitável. O livro descreve ainda a vida e os habitantes de Marte e de Vênus.

Em 1999, já com a saúde severamente debilitada, o V. M. Rabolú recusou-se a nomear um sucessor. Fez as últimas reformas no Movimento Gnóstico, e estabeleceu para todos os estudantes uma única fase ou classe de estudos, denominada Fase A.

 Obras
O Mestre Rabolú, escreveu várias obras cujo tema básico era o gnosticismo, visando direcionar as práticas do ensinamento gnóstico e detalhando os assuntos das obras do Mestre Samael. A orientação básica de seus escritos levavam à busca de si mesmo, pelo caminho da revolução da consciência.

Q: How to check if an object in an array has an empty string? How to check if an object in an array has an empty string?
var arr = [
  {name: "Bob", middle_name: ""},
  {name: "John", middle_name: "Denver March"}
];

Can I use something like this:
if (arr[i].middle_name === "") {
  alert("true")
}

While also making sure that it doesn't say true if the object isn't empty?

A: Yes. Here's an example of that.

var arr = [{
    name: "Bob",
    middle_name: ""
  },
  {
    name: "John",
    middle_name: "Denver March"
  },
  {
    name: "Bill",
    middle_name: "Storm"
  },
  {
    name: "Empty person",
    middle_name: ""
  }
];

for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
  if (arr[i].middle_name === "") {
    alert(arr[i].name + " is empty");
  }
}

A: I would use Array#some for this job:

The some() method tests whether at least one element in the array passes the test implemented by the provided function. It returns a Boolean value.

const check = xs => xs.some(({middle_name}) => middle_name === "");

console.log(check(arr));
//=> true

console.log(check(arr2));
//=> false
<script>
var arr = [
  {name: "Bob", middle_name: ""},
  {name: "John", middle_name: "Denver March"}
];

var arr2 = [
  {name: "Bob", middle_name: "John Doe"},
  {name: "John", middle_name: "Denver March"}
];

</script>

The Hennessey Venom F5 Is America's 301 MPH Hypercar
At the 2017 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, Hennessey Performance unveils its much-anticipated 301 mph 1600 bhp Venom F5 hypercar. The Venom F5 is an all-new hypercar designed and built from the ground up with one goal in mind: To be the absolute fastest road car on earth. Hennessey and team have developed a completely new design, chassis and carbon fiber body focused on aerodynamics to achieve the lowest possible drag. The new F5 design features active aero that will yield a coefficient of drag of just 0.33.
"We've designed F5 to be timeless so that in 25 years it will still have a level of performance and design that will be unmatched," said John Hennessey, company Founder and CEO. "The F5 is an all new car, designed and built from the ground up, from the engine to the chassis. We expect the Venom F5, named for the most powerful tornado speed winds on the Fujita scale, to be the first road car capable of achieving more than 300 mph and have worked closely with Pennzoil to get us across the finish line."
The Hennessey team is developing an all-new, twin turbo V8 engine that will deliver over 1600 bhp. The Hennessey engine will be mated to a 7-speed single clutch paddle shift transmission and delivering power down to the rear tires. The Venom will also feature an all new light weight chassis and all carbon fiber body, which will give the F5 a curb weight of 2,950 lbs.
The F5's combination of lightweight, low drag, and all-American horsepower will deliver a new level of hypercar performance. Acceleration from 0 to 186 mph (300 km/h) will be less than 10 seconds making the new Venom quicker than current Formula 1 race cars. Zero to 249 mph (400 km/h) and back to rest will be under 30 seconds. The top speed of the Venom F5 is projected to exceed 300 mph.
The base price for the Venom F5 is $1.6 million US dollars. The company plans to build 24 examples.

BEYOND HEAVEN - CHICAGO HOUSE PARTY FLYERS VOLUME II FROM 1981-1992
By Brandon Johnson
With the original out of stock, we were at a crossroads. But luck was on our side when Mario "Liv It Up" Luna dug up a long-forgotten cache of material and from that we bring you Beyond Heaven: Volume II. Same format as the original, but with all new flyers documenting an extended window of history, from early "mobile discos" that reflect the roots of the underground movement before the term "house" was even coined, to the emergence of a new generation of house DJs and artists in Chicago inspired by the original pioneers of the genre. As with the original, this book reflects a mix of figures and parallel movements that were entangled with the world of house. From dance groups to party crews, along with promoters, labels, and record stores, both well established and lesser known—all are points of departure to good memories and/or further investigations into one of the greatest eras in the history of Chicago music, with a legacy that is profoundly influential to this day.

January marked the 35th consecutive month of 40,000+ vehicle sales for the company. Outback and Forester sales were notably strong as each model achieved its best January ever. Impreza sales for January 2017 increased 16.5 percent over the same month in 2016. Crosstrek also enjoyed gains over January 2016.

WRX also placed in the Best Resale Value Top 10 for the second consecutive year.
"We have to thank our dedicated retailers who delivered a wonderful start to 2017 with our best January sales ever and our 62nd consecutive month of yearly, month-over-month sales increases," said Thomas J. Doll, president and chief operating officer.
"With the all-new Impreza arriving at retailers and already selling very well prior to the launch of its advertising campaign in mid-February, we expect an excellent start to the year." said Jeff Walters, senior vice president of sales.

You can check out "Focalin" and the group's tour dates below. Over the next two months, the California natives will make their way across the country into New England and into the South before wrapping everything up at this year's SXSW.

"Prevalences, Penalties, and the Small Impact of Single Motherhood on America's High Child Poverty," David Brady, UC Riverside
May 19, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm PDT
David Brady, UC Riverside
Abstract: Many claim high U.S. child poverty results from a high prevalence of single motherhood, and reducing single motherhood would substantially reduce child poverty. To scrutinize these arguments, we apply the "prevalences and penalties" framework to Luxembourg Income Study data across 30 rich democracies and over time within the U.S. 1979–2016. The descriptive patterns fail to support these claims. Although the U.S. has a moderately high prevalence of single motherhood, a fairly high prevalence is typical cross-nationally and in recent U.S. history. Single motherhood is the most common risk of the four major risks in the U.S., but this is because low education, young headship, and unemployment have declined. The U.S. has the highest penalty for single motherhood, however single motherhood has the smallest penalty of the four major risks in the U.S. and cross-nationally. A wide variety of counterfactual simulations demonstrate that reducing single motherhood would not substantially reduce child poverty. Even with zero single motherhood, U.S. child poverty would only move from the third to fourth highest among 30 rich democracies (from 21.3% to 18.8%). Ultimately, we demonstrate that the U.S. has systemically high child poverty for all family structures, and extremely high child poverty for racial/ethnic minorities regardless of single motherhood. Reducing the penalty attached to single motherhood and reducing America's systemically high child poverty across all families would be far more effective than reducing the prevalence of single motherhood.
Biography: David Brady is a Professor in the School of Public Policy, and Director of the Blum Initiative on Global and Regional Poverty at the University of California, Riverside. At UCR, he teaches classes on poverty, public policy analysis, and statistics.
