Look, I know that there are always going to be fads, and that diets are no exception. Kale is a phenom today and tomorrow it might be dandelions. I get it. Fads happen, people grab on for reasons from wanting to be healthy to just liking to stay part of the crowd. Or worse, to be "trending". (I feel like that should've been accompanied by a #hashtag) See, I do get it. And still, I find myself disheartened when someone finds out that we're a gluten free family. Especially when their response is similar to the one I got this morning.
Excuse me? One of those whats?
Oh, you know, one of those mommy-poppins where you make all your food from scratch and you're an organizational freak, you homeschool, and your children are always perfectly polite. And with an added eye-roll (just in case I couldn't feel the distain dripping off her words) I'd think you were one of those moms who just likes to make other moms look bad or feel guilty, if it weren't for the way you're dressed.
At this point, I couldn't help but laugh. I am….reserved. I'm quiet if I don't know you and hate confrontation. So this morning was almost like an out of body experience when I found my timid self voicing the things that would have normally just been left to scream in my head. I laughed, out loud style, Like, really laughed. Enough to make her look at me with eyes wide in a way that I'm pretty sure said, oh good lord, what have I done?
Once I regained composure of my unkempt hair, makeup-less face, and sweat pants and shirt covered self, and looked at her well-manicured, make-uped, hair done, business attired self and tried not to burst out laughing all over again. And then I shared with her some of my thoughts.
Some of your assumptions were correct. I do make lots of things from scratch, and I really do love organization more than the average person, and my children are usually polite… but there is nothing about me that does any of those things for any reason that is outside of my family. We're gluten free because two of my three children have Celiac Disease. And well, you know, we'd like to keep them alive, and thriving, even. And the from scratch part, well, that's simple. It's a third of the cost than buying gluten free things store bought, and it gives us more options. So I don't really have much of a choice. If I bought every meal from a store (vs homemade/from scratch), we'd spend over $1,000 on groceries. And that is not an exaggeration. And homeschooling, well, that's a bigger issue. But my oldest has dyslexia like his daddy, and learning is a struggle. So we keep him home and practice being patient every single day so that he can have a different learning experience than the handful of people we know that struggled with dyslexia as children that the school system left feeling stupid. And as far as the organization goes…I love it, I really do. But I have three children. I have a demanding day time schedule, and often have to stay up until three am just to keep up with the laundry and the food prep clean up, and everything else. And that's when I'm not working, if I am there are usually several nights a month where I do not get to sleep, at all. I have learned to function on very little sleep. Which is why my hair is in a pony tail and my face is plain, and my clothes are frumpy at best. I would never try and make another mom feel bad about the job she's doing or that she's not doing enough. I would like to believe that we're all trying our best. Sometimes I wish that celiac, or dyslexia, weren't a part of our daily lives. It would certainly make things simpler. And would open up some more time for all of us. But it's the life I have and I do everything I can for my children to feel that it's a normal one, and that they're not missing out on anything.
Well, your children sure are cute.
I'm not sure if that was her version of an apology or if she realized that we've all got struggles and whether we look like we've got it together or not, it's probably not. I hope so. I hope the next mom who says, Oh you're one of those really means, Oh, you're one of those moms that struggles just like the rest of us, your struggles just look differently than mine. And I hope that the next time I find myself thinking, Oh you're one of those about anybody, that I remember that their struggles just look differently than mine.
Hubbyman was home early today, and since I stayed up late and got caught up on household things…today I could do what I want. Relatively. We played games, we cuddled, we read books. And then they requested "girl cheese" (grilled cheese) and toast with cinnamon. It's been months since I've made bread and so I decided today was the day for it! I used a recipe I found on Our Best Bites last August. (I blogged about it, but it went largely unnoticed.) They're still rising, but I can tell you they're going to be equally as fabulous this time!
I turned the rolls into bread…and it was fabulous!
Last time I made the frosting pink for Miss E since lots of times she gets left when it comes to deserts. This time I couldn't bear to let the "filling" go to waste (since I'd forgotten to halve it, due to not making a full batch), but I still wanted it to be kind of glazed (versus frosted) so I added a good amount of milk, and then a little powdered sugar. Which also helped it to be not quite so rich since it already had the rich filling.) Perfect. Delicious. Even better than the first time around!
If you want to try them, go here for the full recipe! Or go to my link for my version of them (their recipe makes them rolls- I turned them into bread and used the extra dough to make a few of the cream cheese delights. Just enough to enjoy without them going bad as lots of desserts do in our home.) Oh, and the recipes are easy and other than the time for letting them rise, they take hardly any time!
Our family is not huge on sweets. Cookies we'll eat, but cakes, pies, and anything else in the dessert family, tends to go stale before it gets finished. Every year we would order a big DQ Cake for hubbyman's birthday. It's his favorite. Last year I got him a tiny one that he and I shared after kids had gone to bed. This year we're more conscious about US not eating things with wheat/gluten in it, so I needed a new plan. Thankfully, I have a firm and devout love of cookbooks. And the only books I've read the last couple of months have been my new cookbooks, and so I was well versed in which cookbook would work. And in true fashion- I combined my favorites! From two of my favorite cookbooks!
That's right, it has a bite out of it. Because it's so yummy, I couldn't even wait to take the picture before taking a bite!
Big E insisted Daddy would want blue sprinkles on his cake, and the M&Ms frozen in the ice cream middle layer, added a nice splash of color!
The basis of this cake, I got from the Babycakes Covers the Classics (Gluten Free, Vegan Recipes from Donuts to Snickerdoodles –just typing that makes me want to go eat make some snickerdoodles!). The photos of all her baking is amazing. If I could get all my baker-y to look that picturesque, I could die happy.
However, pretty much the only thing about this recipe that I stuck to, was that it has cake with ice cream in the middle. But it was my jumping off point.
One of my other favorites is my Gluten-Free Cupcakes book. (This is my go to for desserts to make and desserts to bring anywhere. They are quick, they are easy, and they don't contain a million different ingredients.) Elena Amsterdam has quickly become on of my favorite cookbook goddesses! She also blogs: Elena's Pantry.
One of my favorite cupcakes to make is Red Velvet. I usually leave out the red, because let's face it, that doesn't change the taste. And food dyes really aren't great for you. And (here's the truth) I ran out of my red dye that's natural and made from vegetables, and they're pretty much always out of it at the natural food store. Anyhow, it's yummy, it's moist, and it's easy. So I made two of them.
Preheat oven to 350. Spray pans. In a large bowl, combine the coconut flour, salt, cocoa powder, and baking soda.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, grapeseed oil, agave nectar, and food coloring (if you choose to use any). Blend the wet ingredients into the dry with a handheld mixer until thoroughly combined (Truth= I used a spatula and that worked just fine).
Bake for 18-22 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Let cool in pan for an hour.
I did this x2. Gluten free measures a little differently, so recipes generally work better if you make two batches, rather than just double. So I made it twice (that way I didn't have to dirty 2 more bowls).
1/2 pint (I think I actually used about 3/4, but whatever) ice cream. I used vanilla, because that's what I had in the fridge, but you can use whatever sounds good to you. Raspberry or strawberry would probably pair really well with the red velvet! Ok, after softening the ice cream, transfer ice cream to a medium bowl and fold in whatever you want. The original recipe used cookies. I used M&Ms and white/milk chocolate swirl chips. It was a fantastic decision.
Now make sure the cakes have thoroughly cooled. I thought mine had, but they were still just warm enough that they made my ice cream layer melt a little more than I would have liked. In a pie pan, or spring form, line with wax paper or plastic wrap. I cheated. I just used my silicone pie pan. It worked swimmingly. (And fit better in my freezer.) So put the bottom cake down and spread the ice cream on top. Smooth with the back of a spoon. Place remaining cake on top of ice cream. Frost (I used a really yummy whipped cream cheese frosting!) and freeze (covered) for at least 4 hours. It is just so yummy. I'm not a big chocolate person, but I do love this! Hope you will too… you know, once a year, on your birthday. Or lunch every day for a week. Your pick.
Things are starting to get a little bit shaken up over here at the household full of E's. (Seriously, I'm the only one in my house -other than the animals- that isn't an E, did I ever mention that? My children think I feel left out, or that I should feel left out… I think it just makes me that much more special. Right?) Anyways, our house itself, is not in upheaval or anything. Ok, that's a blatant lie. My house is pretty much always in a state of upheaval. Unless the children have gone to Grandma's. What I'm really meaning is that things are changing over here.
Biggest is 5, and will be kindergarten age for this fall's school session. We have decided (for numerous reasons) to homeschool. At least for kindergarten. We'll take this year to feel our way out and see how we both feel about it. So we have been scouring the internet, fielding phone calls, and taking in numerous pamphlets via the good 'ol USPS. It's a little intimidating and a lot overwhelming. We think we're settled. Now we just have to get our "school area" prepped and ready. Which means I need some more shelving. Which I'm hoping means a trip to The Container Store. (I love that place. Hubbyman took me there for Valentine's Day last year- and I declared it the best Valentine's Day ever. This is a true story.) So we've got that going on.
And… we've got the whole converting everything to homemade/non-chemical. I left some messages with some lovely etsy ladies yesterday on doing some reviews of their natural/homemade/chemical free home cleaning and personal products and in less than 24 hours I already have 2 in the works! This is SO exciting! Letjoy, of My Big Cloth Adventure, has been encouraging me to reach out to some retailers and start doing reviews. And I finally did it! So be on the lookout the next couple of weeks for a review and maybe a giveaway or two!
Well, the long weekend is over. Boo. Hoo. Wah! And we currently have more snow in our yard than we have at any other point this winter (I think). It probably won't happen, but I'm crossing my fingers that hubbyman decides to come home a little early to fulfill his biggest boy's winter dream of finally going sledding down the hill in the backyard.
Even though it was a long weekend, it felt… short. Or maybe just compacted? No, it just felt short. Maybe because it was compacted? Whatever. Friday night we ran errands trying to get everything we needed to make our homemade cleaning products and personal care products. We didn't find everything we needed at the local health food store or a local regular store. The next morning the Big 2 had Tae Kwon Do. Actually, they don't normally have it on Saturday, but today was test day, and they got a new colored stripe on their belts. It was their first big test, and Biggest boy did so good- I was so proud! I'm normally banned (by hubbyman) from their lessons, because I'm "distracting." (They'll run off the mat to give me a hug or a kiss… every 2.3 seconds or so. I guess I can understand.). Anyhow, my boy did fantastic! My girl did… well, she did it. But their last test was in a small room with just Master Lee, so to be in a room full of other kids and their families, and extended families… it was a bit overwhelming. When he called her name, she immediately burst into tears and cried, I don't want to go in front of everybody! (I don't blame her- I felt self conscious up there in front of everyone, and I was just there for her moral support.) Anyhow, afterwards we went downtown St. Paul to a bigger healthfood store. And the rest of the ingredients we ordered online. Which is probably what we should have done to start with, because it was way cheaper. Way cheaper.
Hubbyman was so excited about the process, that he began to make some of the things that we did have all the ingredients for. We have shampoo, toothpaste for us, and toothpaste for the kids. He also shampooed the carpet with our homemade version (but we've been using that for a while). While I love the homemade carpet shampoo… that's about where my love ends, so far. Ok, that's not entirely true. I love the way the shampoo smells, and I love how clean my teeth feel after using the toothpaste. Seriously, the only clean that compares is right after the dentist. So we obviously have some work to do before any recipes are released. But I may just be feeling a little grinchy, because he also vinegar washed my coffee maker. Now, that really is a good thing. And far be in from me to criticize a man doing some househelp. But I will admit that having to do all the flushes to get the vinegar out this morning, before I could have my cup of coffee, kinda squelched those feel-good, thanks-for-helping feelings.
I have found my Green Book! It's not really called that, but to me, that's what it is. What it really is: Homemade! How to make everyday products fast, fresh, and more naturally. 702 ways to save money and the earth. It is pretty awesome. Everything from how to make things you love, but don't want to spend the money on (hello, starbucks frappuccino) to things you want to make healthy instead of toxic. You can duplicate cough syrup, deodorant, aftershave, I even have a "recipe" for Oil of Olay's all-day moisturizer (and wrinkle cream). And that's without all the icky stuff that you don't want in it or on you! The food recipes seem a little silly to me, except for the ones that are how to make this famous thing at home (like said frappuccino, or condiments- you know, things you wouldn't find in your every day cookbook). But that may be just because I have to have some cookbooks I keep in storage, because I have that many. I love cookbooks. Seriously. And, it's a collection that my husband actually approves of. More cookbooks = more cooking = satisfied hungryman, I mean, hubbyman.
Anyways, so long story still long… good weekend, filled weekend. Homemade stuff was not a total bust, but not a total success. But we will be working on it. And next batch of toothpaste will be minty instead of citrus-y. I think that's my problem with the toothpaste. Minty freshness just feels cleaner. If you are wanting to start in on some homemade household things, I HIGHLY recommend you check out the book. Lots of from scratch, lots of almost from scratch. So even if you're not going to be making your own toothpaste, or shampoo, there are lots of things you can do. Whether it's your own cleaning products (imagine, safe to have around and you get to pick out the scent!) to homemade skillet meals (want the ease of the throw the frozen bag in the bowl meals, without all the gross additives and for a fraction of the price?).
And now I am off to fight the raging war on the evils of clutter… either that or I'll just eat a piece of hubbyman's birthday ice cream cake (which was also homemade, GF, and delicious!).
So, the hubbyman and I have been talking. About living healthier, mainly, but that's not just food, it's a lifestyle. In fact, last night, he whipped up a batch of homemade shampoo. And has plans for soaps, lotions, and a plethora of other household essentials. Because just as we believe the foods we eat and put into our bodies are very important, we also believe that the things we put on our body are equally as important. We've long been using cleaning products that are more organic, more environmentally friendly (both the earth's environment and my children's). But now we're going the extra steps. My kids (unfortunately for them) come from grandparents (and me) on both sides that have a long list of allergies and sensitives, both for foods and products you use in the house or on your body. So that gives us the extra incentive to go as natural as possible. Plus, it's pennies on the dollar when you make it from home. Who doesn't like when an added bonus is less money?! So we're jumping in!
We're also planning a weekend on helping some friends with their cooking. I'm not sure if they're hoping to go GF or just homemade, but I can help with both! This was prompted when I ran into our natural food store this weekend. I went in to grab some easy GF things to send with the big kids who were doing an overnight with their Aunt and Uncle (and their newborn baby goat). Turns out they were having an anniversary sale, and you could hardly walk through the aisles. It was a good sale and I grabbed a few things (like GF noodles for over 50% off! Yes, thank you!). As I was looking through the noodles, and grabbing a variety of them. A lady next to me was looking over all the boxes and bags and seemed a little lost. I must've been audibly excited when the vegetable noodles (you know, the colored spirals of red-tomatoes-, green-spinach, and plain- rice). Because she turned to me with big, help-me-I'm-lost eyes and asked, do your kids like those? I smiled and told her, yes, they really do. And they like the colors. And this is a really good deal on them. She nodded and looked back at all the noodles. Then she said, people told me that diet, and wheat really could make a difference in my son. I didn't believe them, and just fed him what I wanted. And then I paid attention. And I could see the visible difference in his behavior when he ate wheat. And now I just feel so guilty that I didn't make those changes earlier, and I have no idea where to start. She let a couple of tears escape and I just wanted to hug her! I told her my daughter has Celiac and we struggled for a year trying to find out what it was that she was intolerant of. (The longer she ate things with wheat- the more things she became intolerant of. Since going GF, we've been able to add the other things back in, without reactions.) She asked questions like, What can you make with the noodles? I laughed, even though I completely understood her feelings -and was there myself not so long ago-, but because I make everything we used to eat. Just a little different. And in quite a few cases, even better than it was before. I gave her some ideas, things I do for my kids that they like (and are quick and easy). And I told her that in times of babysitters, or when you just don't have the time, they do have some things that are premade. So there are options. She heaved a big sigh and said, I came here to get noodles and things, I just didn't know how lost I would be. Thank you so much. And it reminded me of why I started this blog in the first place. To share. To help. At the time I started it, I was getting lots of requests for GF meals and ideas, and how to go gluten free, and how to go more homemade. And how to do it all on a real-life, family-friendly budget.
Over the last few months, I've gotten away from that side of this blog. But I am hoping to pick up the slack, at least a bit. I'm by no means an expert and nothing near a GF Martha Stewart. But I am a mom, who's in the throws of it all. So maybe we can commiserate. Maybe I'll have some ideas for you. Maybe you'll have some ideas for me! So if you have questions or ideas, please- pass them my way! Don't worry, you'll still be getting regular doses of my wonderful personality and thoughts, I'll just be throwing in some foodie posts along the way!


So how does this tie into Web Development? Like the example above, if there are "bad things" in the code then developers will be more likely to further contaminate that file with "bad" things", because the file already needs a refactor. But that refactor will happen next week/month/year (never, most likely) and everything will be right again in the world. So there's no sense in doing that now and blowing the deadline for the whole project which needs to be shipped in 2 weeks.
All of your hacks are self contained within a single file, not contaminating the rest of the sane code.
You are admitting there are hacks, but each hack should have its own comment saying why it's necessary, what it does, and how it can be fixed.
Have a spare hour? You can easily dive straight in and fix a hack.
You can see who was responsible for the hacks ($ git blame -l shame.css).
The forth point is actually not a blame game, but you can possibly spot trends. If one developer is making a lot of hacks with regards to, say, the grid system then they may need to be given a quick chat on how it works and what they were doing wrong – this will make them more productive in the future.
It's also a file where someone who isn't that well versed in CSS can place a snippet, knowing that someone will come along and implement it correctly in the codebase in the future.

Top 6 Anime about Japanese Culture

Introduction: Anime about Japanese Culture
Anime is great. Japan is great. Learning stuff by watching TV is also cool, so here are my top 6 anime about Japanese culture. Each of them cover a different aspect of Japanese culture, be it a traditional board game or theatre form. They all heavily feature the aspect, although some aren't exclusively about them. Enjoy!
Calligraphy: Barakamon [ばらかもん]
Barakamon – Handa developing his style
Now this is an adorable, happy little show. Barakamon isn't as much about Japanese calligraphy than living on the Japanese countryside, but it is amazing nonetheless. The show follows Handa, a 23-year-old master calligrapher on his journey to find an own style and living up to his families expectations. He is sent to a remote island and perfects his calligraphy there while interacting with the local inhabitants.
This is where the show really is at its strongest. His interactions with the villagers and the simple countryside life really make the show so enjoyable to watch. In addition, one learns a lot about various local traditions and customs. There's something almost comforting about watching our protagonist live his life in rural Japan, coming to terms with the difficulties of his job, making new friends and finding a community where he can feel at home.
One of the highlights of the show is Naru Kotoishi, a quirky, loud, enervating little middle schooler who seems to never leave Handa's side. She is such a ball of pure energy and I love her for it. Her facial expressions and poses are comedic gold and she brings life to an otherwise calmer slice-of-life show.
The original Manga was written and illustrated by Satsuki Yoshino. The anime adaptation was made by Kinema Citrus, who are known for Black Bullet and Made in Abyss. The animation and backgrounds are solid and the entire atmosphere created is simply exquisite.
With an 8.47 score on MyAnimeList and an 8.3 on IMDb, you can be sure that this one's going to be good. And, if you're still craving more, there is a prequel called Handa-kun that is really, really funny.
Karuta: Chihayafuru [ちはやふる]
I love Chihayafuru. The show is about a high school Karuta club. They play Uta-garuta, or 'poetry-karuta', which is played using Hyakunin Isshu [百人一首], a set of 100 classical Japanese poems. I talked about Karuta briefly in my post about Japanese New Year, as it is traditionally played around that time.
In the show a young girl named Chihaya loves playing Karuta. After a new student joins her class who is an amazing Karuta player, she is inspired to start a school club called the Mizusawa Karuta Club.
The two seasons that have aired so far have 25 episodes each and are critically acclaimed. A third season is currently in the works and is set to air in 2019.
Rakugo: Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu [昭和元禄落語心中]
If you haven't seen Mother's Basement's Video about Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu yet, you should. Then you should go watch the anime itself. Rakugo is a lovely form of storytelling in Japan where a performer kneels on stage and tells a long story. The story can be humorous, and usually includes a dialogue.
Set in the past and the present, its a show about student and master, developing ones style and personal progress.
Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu has a phenomenal average rating of 8.63 on MyAnimeList. It was praised by Nick Creamer for its "Strong underlying narrative to gorgeous direction and top-tier performances."
Shogi: 3-gatsu no Lion [3月のライオン]
March Comes In Like A Lion is a heartbreaking story. The story focuses on Rei Kiriyama, a professional shogi player who, only 17-years old, lives alone in Tokyo.
The show deals with social pressure and depressions, and is at times truly heartbreaking. You follow the protagonist through his personal and professional struggles. After arriving in Tokyo, he meets a family of three sisters living with their grandmother. Although they have their own struggles, they help Rei cope with his struggles together as a family.
The slow pacing gives a more authentic atmosphere and really sucks you in. The animation and character design fit the tone and are truly stunning. You really connect with each and every one of the characters and start rooting for them to succeed.
Plus, there is a whole lot of shogi playing and rivalry. From competitions to tireless practice, if you love the game, this show is for you.
3-gatso no Lion has 2 seasons with 22 episodes each and a live action adaptation. Of course there is also a manga that preceded it with 13 volumes.
Season 1 has a 8.43 average rating on MyAnimeList and Season 2s average is 9.06, making it the 8th highest ranked show on the website as of writing.
Go: Hikaru no Go [ヒカルの碁]
Go is hard. If you ever want to know how to play it, here's a 75 episode long series about go. All of the characters are obsessed with go. Yet this show has so little filler, it's 75 episodes stock full of love and admiration for the board game.
The show is about Shindou Hikaru, a 12-year-old student. After he discovers an old Go board in his grandfather's attic, he is possessed by the spirit of an expert Go player. Hikaru lets the spirit play Go through him. On a quest for the perfect game, "The Hand of God", the show is full of drama, ups and downs and Go. A lot of Go.
Based on the manga by Yumi Hotta and Takeshi Obata, the anime has a 8.17 average rating on MyAnimeList.
Kabuki: Kabuki-bu! [カブキブ!]
If you've ever read anything on this blog, you will probably know that I love Kabuki theatre. The next anime about Japanese culture is a show about pretty boys doing pretty things™.
It's a lighthearted and simple show, and the premise is fun. Kurogu, a high school student, is obsessed with Kabuki theatre and wants to start a club. He persuades his friends to join, teaches them the basics and has a lot of fun. There is not a lot to say about the show, and looking at the reviews, it's a hit or miss.
Sadly, the characters in this one fall a bit flat, with the protagonist being pretty dull. The twelve episodes go by quickly enough though and one does learn a bit about Kabuki.
And that is all I have time for today! I hope you enjoyed this little overview on anime about Japanese culture. There are many more that didn't fit onto this list, so if I missed your favourite, do leave a comment down below. Have you seen any of these shows, and if yes, would you recommend any of them?
Make sure to follow me on Instagram and Youtube, where I post a new video [almost] every Thursday!

Q: Can't use a Variable for both fields (Text and Selecteditem) I wanted to use Disk.Diskvolume as a Global Variable so it contains the things from Listbox1. When making the same Variable as text for a label, it throws an error that says:
"Cannot implicitly convert type 'object' to 'string'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)"

I made a static class called Disk and included Diskvolume as a static object. I made it so it uses an item from a listbox1 whenever its index has changed, but it seems that it doesn't work for Label.text; when using a string it doesn't work with Listbox1.selectedItem
public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public static class Disk
        {
         public static string Diskvolume;
        }
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }
        private void ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            //The Labels Will Change depending on the Chosen DriveLetter
            Disk.Diskvolume = ListBox1.SelectedItem;
            Label2.Text = Disk.Diskvolume;
        }

        private void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }
    }

I expected Disk.Diskvolume to work on both Listbox1.selecteditem and Label2.text.
My problems are particularly in Line 15 and 16, and it has to do with the Public static.

A: You may write:
Disk.Diskvolume = ListBox1.SelectedItem.ToString();

It takes the selected item object of the listbox then call the standard ToString() method which pattern is to return a readable string representation/meaning of the object.
It is this string that is shown in the listbox to the user:

*

Greek court turns over alleged BTC-e operator Alexander Vinnik to France
Business 16 July 2018
Jasmine Solana
The French authorities have emerged victorious in the legal battle for Alexander Vinnik's custody, at least for now.
Last week, a Greek court ruled that the alleged former operator of cryptocurrency exchange BTC-e will be extradited to France, CNN Greece reported. The French authorities have issued an arrest warrant for 39-year-old Russian national, who they accused of "looting" illegal profits amounting to an estimated €130 million (US$152.2 million). The "sums of money," according to French police, were proceeds from cyber-attacks on computer systems, in which BTC-denominated ransom was requested from victims including more than 100 French citizens. Investigators said the illegal profits were deposited on the BTC-e platform.
Vinnik was arrested in a beachside village in northern Greece in July 2017 on suspicion of laundering more than $4 billion via BTC-e as well as facilitating hacking, fraud, identity theft, tax refund fraud, public corruption and drug trafficking activities during his time in the digital currency market.
A lower court initially ordered Vinnik to be turned over to U.S. authorities, but the Russian Foreign Ministry lodged its own extradition request, and Vinnik also appealed to be sent to his home country. At the time, Vinnik told Russian media that the U.S. "has nothing to do with" him because he is a Russian citizen, and so should "let the court in Russia deal with it."
Vinnik's lawyer Ilias Spyrliadis also plans to appeal the recent court decision to the Greek Supreme Court. In an interview with Russian BBC, Spyrliadis said an extradition to France would ultimately end in the U.S. authorities getting their hands on Vinnik, noting that "otherwise the U.S. cannot get him, since the extradition process was blocked."
Vinnik himself also challenged the ruling, according to CNN Greece, which quoted him asking the court, "Since I have committed all these offenses, why is not Greece persecuting me?"
In response to the court ruling, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement claiming that the Greek authorities have continued "to complicate relations with Russia," and that "[i]t is obvious that Russia cannot leave these actions unanswered."

COAL 21 fund looks to future
Published by Louise Mulhall, Editorial Assistant
World Coal, Wednesday, 16 August 2017 09:30
The Fund is the cornerstone of the black coal industry's contribution to the research, development and demonstration (RD&D) of low emissions coal technologies.
It is a unique vehicle which is owned by Australian coal producers and operates on a voluntary levy based on coal production. Its day to day operations are managed by ACA Low Emissions Technologies Ltd.
Since the Fund's inception in 2006 it has invested over AUS$300 million in a range of significant projects and these funds have leveraged a further AUS$550 million from other sources including from the Commonwealth Government, State Governments and industry.
Chairman of the COAL21 Fund and Director of Centennial Coal, Mr David Moult, speaking on the announcement the Fund's extension, said: "I am pleased to see that the work of the Fund is helping to secure the future value of Australia's black coal resources. It is also building wider support for the country's second largest export industry through its commitment to a low emissions pathway."
Mr Moult noted the following highlights over the past decade:
CO2 has been successfully captured at Queensland's Callide coal-fired power plant – the largest demonstration of oxy-fuel technology in the world so far.
65 000 t of CO2 have been sequestered in a depleted gas field in Victoria's Otway Basin through the CO2 Cooperative Research Centre (CO2CRC).
R&D activities have been undertaken through Australian National Low Emissions Coal Research & Development Ltd (ANLEC), (jointly funded by the Australian Government and COAL21 Fund) – this is helping reduce the investment risk associated with the demonstration of low emissions coal technologies in Australia thereby accelerating the technology development cycle.
Improved understanding of the CO2 storage resource in Australia and assisting in intensifying the search for storage.
Mr Moult said: "The next 10 years offers many opportunities to build on our achievements and to further solidify the place of coal in Australia as both a strategic export and underpinning domestic energy supply."
With learnings from the Fund's first 10 years informing new investments, the industry has committed a further AUS$255 million and endorsed participation in a range of ongoing and new initiatives to support the Fund's objectives of building confidence in carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology and demonstrating CO2 storage capacity within Australia.
The forward looking strategic project portfolio covers:
CO2 capture.
Geological storage.
Abatement of fugitive emissions from coal mines.
Important projects include:
The Queensland Surat Basin CCS Hub development
the CTSCo Project.
the University of Queensland Surat Deep Aquifer Appraisal Project.
The NSW Storage development project in conjunction with Coal. Innovation NSW.
Supporting R&D through ANLEC and the CO2CRC.
Safe abatement of methane in ventilation air from underground coal mines.
The Fund also has a specific work programme to consider options for the uptake of High Efficiency Low Emission (HELE) coal-fired generation in Australia. To date this has included commissioning the independent report from energy advisers and power sector engineers Solstice Development Services and GHD which showed HELE coal generation as the lowest cost electricity source available.
The COAL21 Fund has a bright future and the strong endorsement of the coal industry. We now look forward to continuing to work with all stakeholders including the Commonwealth and State governments.
The attachment provides further background on the achievements of the COAL21 Fund to date and its future direction.

What is Intergenerational Equity?
Back to News & Ideas
Then I say, the earth belongs to each of these generations during its course, fully, and in its own right. The second generation receives it clear of the debts and incumbrances of the first, the third of the second, and so on. For if the first could charge it with a debt, then the earth would belong to the dead and not to the living generation. Then, no generation can contract debts greater than may be paid during the course of its own existence.
Policymakers and advocates, when arguing for a particular approach to public pension finance, often raise the issue of intergenerational equity. We sometimes find these arguments confusing, because "intergenerational equity" means different things to different people. In this article we explore this issue—the different views of and approaches to intergenerational equity and the different outcomes they may produce.
Framing the issue
For most expenses—cash compensation being an obvious example—the issue of "which generation pays?" doesn't come up. Because wages must be paid currently, the "first generation" (to use Jefferson's terminology) pays the current wages of current employees in the ordinary course.
For most expenses—cash compensation being an obvious example—the issue of "which generation pays?" doesn't come up.
Pensions are, however, different. A public employee provides current services in exchange for a pension accrual, but the pension benefit itself isn't paid until some time in the future. Because there is no current necessity to pay the pension, there is the possibility that the funding of that pension accrual may be deferred into the future. As a practical matter, the only way that future pension benefit can be "paid currently" is by currently funding it, e.g., by making a contribution to a trust equal to the present value of that future pension benefit.
To restate, with respect to a pension benefit, there is no payment that must be made "now." That fact presents the possibility (not an issue with respect to cash wages or most other fringe benefits, such as health insurance premiums for current workers) that a future generation can be made to pay. And that possibility raises a question of intergenerational equity: Is it equitable that a future generation should pay for the current generation's pension cost?
Not a simple question
Whatever approach you take to this issue, there are complexities lurking underneath the seemingly simple question "which generation pays?" A key one is: how do you determine the "current cost" (to be funded today) of a future pension? Unknowns such as future life spans and future inflation (for plans with COLA provisions) will influence the future cost of that pension benefit. And, you have to discount that future cost back to the current period.
What we see is that there's actually no answer to that question ("how do you determine the current cost?") that is guaranteed to produce "intergenerational equity." The calculation is always an estimate. If you take a "conservative" approach you may overestimate costs; the current generation will overpay and, in effect, transfer wealth to a future generation. If you take an un-conservative approach, the current generation may underpay and, in effect, transfer a financial burden to a future generation.
Today's large unfunded public pension liabilities suggest that in many cases the preponderance of estimates have fallen short in the un-conservative direction.
Today's large unfunded public pension liabilities suggest that in many cases the preponderance of estimates have fallen short in the un-conservative direction. The dilemma faced by today's generation of funders (generally taxpayers) is whether to effectively pay double its share, pay just its own share, or pay even less than its own share (the result of too-widely-used negative amortization strategies).
Different views, different equities
Different stakeholders may have different views as to what constitutes intergenerational equity. Imagine these hypothetical voices weighing in on this question:
Thomas Jefferson "Each generation should pay fully for the cost of its own pensions." This approach is intuitive and is what has traditionally been meant by intergenerational equity. The argument for this approach might be described as: you bought it, you pay for it, and so it inevitably calls for full pre-funding of pensions.
The budget director "Each generation of taxpayers should be required to pay the same pension expense as a percentage of payroll." The result is smooth and predictable costs. But, what if, because of large unfunded liabilities, future benefits for younger workers need to be cut in order to make room for burgeoning amortization payments to cover the cost of benefits promised to older workers? Haven't we compromised intergenerational equity at the worker level?
The public sector worker "Workers across generations should receive the same benefits for the same work." Individual equity may be achieved, but taxpayer equity across generations is very much in question. Rapidly growing funding costs to maintain individual equity put an enormous strain on the sense of intergenerational equity among taxpayers.
Advocates for other local interests "Public services like education involve current costs that have future benefits. We routinely spread (defer) the cost of building schools, so why shouldn't we also spread (defer) the cost of the pensions paid to educators?" Translated: why should current taxpayers incur the full costs associated with expenditures that will benefit citizens for decades to come, especially if doing so means cutting back on other vital services?
Paul Samuelson (Nobel Prize-winning economist) "Pension benefits should only be paid for when they come due. Any pre-funding of pensions imposes an unnecessary burden on the current working generation. Social Security is a Ponzi Scheme that works! Public employee pensions are no different." This is because, as Samuelson actually wrote in a 1967 Newsweek article, "Always there are more youths than old folks in a growing population. More important, with real incomes growing at some 3 percent per year, the taxable base upon which benefits rest in any period are [sic] much greater than the taxes paid historically by the generation now retired…" Needless to say, things didn't work out that way. Within a few years of this appearing in print, both birthrates and real wage growth collapsed. (This point seems especially relevant to the many demographically and economically declining municipalities with underfunded pension plans.)
Because decisions about public pension funding are inevitably political, decisions about pension funding may have more to do with political expediency than with any sort of world view of what's right or equitable. But that doesn't stop advocates for almost any funding approach from citing intergenerational equity as a rationale.
Real-world consequences
One of the problems with thinking about these issues under the heading "intergenerational equity" is that it makes them seem abstract. Moreover, these issues are often framed in terms of "which group of taxpayers is going to be made to pay," with the discussion degenerating into an argument over tax equity and income inequality. At which point the real issue—which generation will pay?—is lost.
But in real life, intergenerational in-equity can have devastating consequences for citizens and pensioners alike.
But in real life, intergenerational in-equity can have devastating consequences for citizens and pensioners alike. Consider the situation we see in many cities where a two-tier system of compensation has been created. Old employees (Jefferson's first generation) are given privileged benefits that are paid for by reducing the benefits (and sometimes the compensation) of "new" employees (Jefferson's second generation). Alternatively (or even at the same time), services to the second generation of taxpayers, e.g., schools, parks and libraries, may be cut.
In these circumstances, whatever your theoretical view, the conclusion must be that something went wrong with the intergenerational calculus.
While subject to multiple interpretations and thus sometimes confusing, the concept of intergenerational equity does capture something crucial that is at stake in public pension finance. There are limits—both practical and moral—on the ability and the right of one generation to bind another.
Most of us do not "buy in" to Jefferson's perspective, even roughly, or we would never have ended up in the situation we find ourselves in today. To the contrary, the history of public finance (especially federal, but also state and municipal) over most of the postwar era has been based on an implicit (and sometimes explicit, as in Samuelson's case) rejection of Jefferson's basic premise.
It's high time we recalled it.

Department of the Environment Develops Workforce Models with Fujitsu
"This is the first time the organisation has had an information tool such as the Workforce Models which can generate indicative staffing numbers and grades for the processing of different categories and volumes of planning applications"
Chief Planning Officer, Department of the Environment, Northern Ireland
The Planning & Local Government Group (P&LGG) contributes to and is responsible for implementing Northern Ireland Executive's planning policies and operates within a statutory framework. The Department's mission, to which the Group contributes, is to "make Northern Ireland a better place to live, work and invest". The Group consists of four divisions, three of which are responsible for functions relating to planning. The key business areas of P&LGG are development planning and development management, including enforcement. The Planning function currently has approximately 450 staff which includes approximately 20 staff currently on loan or secondment.
The Department was faced with a number of challenges including budget constraints and overspending as well as staff surplus. Despite a decrease in planning application numbers staff numbers remained constant.
In addition to the budget challenges, the Department of the Environment was charged by the Public Accounts Committee to prepare a staffing model for delivery of planning services, in the context of the transfer of planning functions to local government under the Review of Public Administration (RPA) reforms which is due to take place in April 2015.
A major review of planning fees is underway and the outputs from the Workforce Models will help inform decisions.
"The models will also be used in the context of local government reform in Northern Ireland to inform decisions around allocations of Planning staff to newly formed local councils which will assume responsibility for planning post April 2015," says the Chief Planning Officer, DoE.
Fujitsu's Business Consultants, in partnership with key stakeholders from the Planning Teams ran a series of workshops to collect information on the current target operating model and business processes for the different planning functions.
Using this data Fujitsu combined its experience in organisation design and manpower modelling to develop a series of manpower models that can react to changes in working structures both by role, grade and task.
"The model is also user friendly and can be adapted to reflect changes in support time, non-productive time, process steps and workload volumes," comments a Senior Business Partner with Responsibility for Planning.
There was no such a thing as a "standard application" - development sites vary enormously in character and planning context; proposed developments themselves vary in scale, form and use and the requirements of development plans also vary according to geography.
In general, case officer time is proportionate to the complexity and/or size of a development proposal. Case loading also needs to be viewed in the context of the quality of decision and improving the service for applicants.
"The Workforce Models provide indicative staffing requirements for each Area Planning Office for a specified level of annual workload. The staffing of these offices can be revised based on the outputs from the models and appropriate resources redirected to address changes in local workloads," says the Senior Business Partner with Responsibility for Planning.
The workforce models provided management a tool to support strategic decision making around rationalising staff numbers to ensure the correct number of staff were in place to deliver service.
Good practice guidelines have also introduced additional diligence into process. Although this has resulted in extra process time in some areas it has brought more rigour into process areas which will be beneficial in the longer term for the DoE.
It was essential that the Department and the new larger councils to be formed from 2015, had confidence in the output from these models and that the inputs are correct, particularly the processes and the weighting given to the complexity of particular types of applications.
"The Models also informs the Senior Management Team about resources required to ensure that alleged breaches of planning legislation can be properly investigated," concludes The Chief Planning Officer.
Fujitsu has undertaken subsequent reviews of the manpower models to ensure the models are kept up to date with changing business practices.

I can hardly believe that I've been on "summer vacation" for 2 months. Time is flying. But in the best way possible. Weekends are filled with warm weather, barbecues, dog walks, gelato and swimming. All the best things about summer. That said, barbecues are probably one of my favourite things about the summer, such good company, music and food. I just love the atmosphere. Mind you, I feel the same way about pool parties. Put them together and I will be at your house in 2 minutes.
A few snapshots from my summer from my iPhone and Instagram!
Barbecue sauce is something I've always had a bit of a problem with. The store bought sauces are just so overwhelmingly sweet. It kind of feels like eating liquid sugar; you can almost feel the sugar on your teeth afterwards. So not for me! I've challenged myself to try my hand at making lots of different types of homemade barbecue sauce this summer – the combinations are almost endless! This first version is more of your basic homemade barbecue sauce. Not too sweet with just enough tang.
* Can use less or more jalapeno depending on what level of heat you want.
Heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and jalapeno to the pan, saute for 4 minutes.
Add garlic and spices, cook for another minute.
Next, add the crushed tomatoes, ketchup, cider vinegar, molasses and honey.
Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Allow to cool, and then puree in a blender.
For a healthier alternative to store bought barbecue sauce, give this Homemade Barbecue Sauce a try.
WHAT IS STEAK SPICE, PLEASE?
Hi Judy, I use Montreal Steak Spice seasoning here.


We have cordless battery and fuel-powered polishers from quality manufacturers like Milwaukee and Ryobi available at SGS. Our wide selection of polishers are perfect for a variety of uses, including car polishing and buffing.
Polishers and buffers work by creating a smooth, shiny surface by rubbing them with polish. They're typically used by car enthusiasts or auto body shops as well as for furniture and flooring jobs. Apply polish to the machine's pad and gently spread it around the area you're working on before using the polisher to work in the polish.
A versatile option, the Milwaukee M18FAP180-0 Fuel Polisher has a diameter of 180mm and is both compact and cordless, making it easier for moving around than corded alternatives. It has 8 position variable speed options that range from 360-2200 RPM (making it ideal for polishing a car, which it can manage from a single charge) and it can also be bought as part of a bundle.
Alternatively, the Ryobi ONE+ buffer is designed with motor enthusiasts in mind. Flexible enough to tackle simple polishing and waxing applications - as well as furniture and flooring work - this buffer is the perfect addition to your ONE+ tool kit. The powerful motor provides up to 2,500 orbits per minute, delivering optimum performance, even during extended use. Should you wish, it's also available to purchase as part of a bundle.
Our friendly sales staff are available via email on sales@sgs-engineering.com and phone 01332 576 850 to offer assistance throughout your entire purchase. Warranty information is available on each product page, and we offer a 60 day returns policy should you need it. There's free next day delivery option offered on any purchases, so you can shop with us in complete confidence.
Find out more about how to look after your automotives with our expert advice.

# Google Cloud Storage

[Google Cloud storage](https://cloud.google.com/storage) (GCS) provides cloud storage for a variety of use cases. You can use it for **reading** and **writing data**, and for checkpoint storage when using [`FileSystemCheckpointStorage`]({{< ref "docs/ops/state/checkpoints" >}}#the-filesystemcheckpointstorage)) with the [streaming **state backends**]({{< ref "docs/ops/state/state_backends" >}}).

You can use GCS objects like regular files by specifying paths in the following format:

```plain
gs://<your-bucket>/<endpoint>
```

The endpoint can either be a single file or a directory, for example:

```java
// Read from GSC bucket
env.readTextFile("gs://<bucket>/<endpoint>");

// Write to GCS bucket
stream.writeAsText("gs://<bucket>/<endpoint>");

// Use GCS as checkpoint storage
env.getCheckpointConfig().setCheckpointStorage("gs://<bucket>/<endpoint>");

```

### Libraries

You must include the following jars in Flink's `lib` directory to connect Flink with gcs:

```xml
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
  <artifactId>flink-shaded-hadoop2-uber</artifactId>
  <version>${flink.shared_hadoop_latest_version}</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.google.cloud.bigdataoss</groupId>
  <artifactId>gcs-connector</artifactId>
  <version>hadoop2-2.2.0</version>
</dependency>
```

We have tested with `flink-shared-hadoop2-uber` version >= `2.8.5-1.8.3`.
You can track the latest version of the [gcs-connector hadoop 2](https://storage.googleapis.com/hadoop-lib/gcs/gcs-connector-latest-hadoop2.jar).

### Authentication to access GCS

Most operations on GCS require authentication. Please see [the documentation on Google Cloud Storage authentication](https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/authentication) for more information.

You can use the following method for authentication
* Configure via core-site.xml
  You would need to add the following properties to `core-site.xml`

  ```xml
  <configuration>
    <property>
      <name>google.cloud.auth.service.account.enable</name>
      <value>true</value>
    </property>
    <property>
      <name>google.cloud.auth.service.account.json.keyfile</name>
      <value><PATH TO GOOGLE AUTHENTICATION JSON></value>
    </property>
  </configuration>
  ```

  You would need to add the following to `flink-conf.yaml`

  ```yaml
  flinkConfiguration:
    fs.hdfs.hadoopconf: <DIRECTORY PATH WHERE core-site.xml IS SAVED>
  ```

* You can provide the necessary key via the `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS` environment variable.

Your legal problem is about ...Currently selected
Land and Environment Court > Your legal problem is about ...
HeritageCurrently selected
Heritage issues arise in a wide variety of civil and criminal proceedings in the Land and Environment Court.
Merits appeals
In the Court's Class 1 jurisdiction, the Court is regularly required to consider heritage issues in merits appeals. These cases commonly relate to the grant or refusal of a development application to demolish, alter or develop land comprising, or in the vicinity of, a heritage item or conservation area listed under the Heritage Act 1977 or an environmental planning instrument made under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979. These cases raise questions of the heritage significance of a heritage item or conservation area and the impact the proposed development will have on this significance.
Civil and criminal enforcement cases
Heritage issues also arise in civil and criminal enforcement proceedings before the Court. People may breach legislation protecting heritage, including the Heritage Act 1977, Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 and National Parks and Wildlife Act 1974. These statutes make it a criminal offence to destroy, demolish, deface or move a heritage item, including an Aboriginal object or place, without obtaining a valid permit or consent as required by the relevant statutes. Civil proceedings in Class 4 of the Court's jurisdiction may be brought to restrain and remedy breaches of the statutes and criminal proceedings in Class 5 of the Court's jurisdiction may be brought to prosecute offences.
Judicial review cases
The Court may also be required to consider heritage issues in judicial review proceedings in Class 4 challenging the validity of a consent or permit to destroy or demolish a heritage item, or an Aboriginal object or place, or to carry out an activity which has that effect.
Information on heritage and the legislation and cases involving heritage issues is available in Heritage overview.

NaNoWriMo begins in just a few hours. How exciting!
My last piece of advice is to keep your sense of humor. (Please back up your writing regularly.) Sure, feel the burn, stretch, grow, turn off your phone, and this is supposed to be fun. Take it seriously but don't be solemn, give yourself room to play on the page.
You can do this — I believe in you!

I Campionati nazionali di ciclismo su strada sono eventi svolti annualmente da ogni nazione per designare i campioni nazionali delle diverse discipline del ciclismo su strada. In molti casi, vengono disputati nelle prime settimane di giugno, periodo designato apposta dal calendario internazionale. Nelle nazioni dell'Oceania, Australia e Nuova Zelanda, si tengono nel tardo gennaio, mentre negli Stati Uniti si disputano in settembre.

Vengono assegnati i titoli di campione nazionale in linea ed a cronometro, nelle categorie Uomini Elite, Uomini Under-23 e Donne.

Maglia distintiva
Ogni campione nazionale è distinto da una particolare maglia che spesso riporta la bandiera o semplicemente i colori distintivi della nazione. I corridori campioni nazionali sono autorizzati ad indossarla nell'anno in cui sono campioni, mentre successivamente possono indossare i colori nazionali sulla scollatura o in bande attorno alle braccia.

Picks of the week: Season-defining weekend for the Pac-12 (and several games are a long way from home)
Stanford, Arizona State and Washington State are playing multiple time zones away
By Jon Wilner | jwilner@bayareanewsgroup.com | Bay Area News Group
PUBLISHED: September 12, 2019 at 7:31 a.m. | UPDATED: September 12, 2019 at 8:35 a.m.
My weekly conversation with Doc's Sports handicapper Raphael Esparza (@VSIdocsports) is available below. Esparza will join me each week during the season to discuss the top Pac-12 games …
Week Three provides the Pac-12 with the opportunity to bolster its collective resume and a final chance to exert its dominance over … the Mountain West.
If only we were joking.
Thus far, the Pac-12 is 3-3 against its neighbor:
Hawaii 45, Arizona 38
Colorado 52, Colorado State 31
USC 31, Fresno State 23
Hawaii 31, Oregon State 28
San Diego State 23, UCLA 14
Oregon 77, Nevada 6
The two games scheduled for Saturday, Hawaii at Washington and Air Force at Colorado, are the final matchups of the season.
If the Rainbow Warriors win in Seattle, we might as well declare them Pac-12 champs and turn our attention to the men's basketball season.
Err …
Sarcasm aside, this is a vital week for the conference: Two dates with the Big 12, a third with the Big Ten and six games against the Group of Five.
To hold a place at the table in the Power Five, you need to beat the Group of Five.
So far, the Pac-12 is 7-4 against major college teams that aren't in the ACC, Big 12, Big Ten and SEC and aren't Notre Dame.
The Week Three matchups in order of importance — based on the Hotline's completely subjective standards — for the Pac-12's reputation:
6. Oklahoma at UCLA (FOX): Would slot this higher if the Bruins had a reasonable chance to win.
5. Texas Tech at Arizona (ESPN): Red Raiders are second tier in the Big 12. On its home turf, should be a Pac-12 win.
4. Hawaii at Washington (Pac-12 Networks): Cannot be a loss. Cannot be close.
3. Stanford at UCF (ESPN): Loss by perennial Pac-12 power to one of the G5's best would add to negative national narrative.
2. Arizona State at Michigan State (FOX): Any head-to-head win over a top-tier B1G program carries weight.
1. USC at BYU (ABC): Trojans have the talent and the schedule juice to represent the conference on the national stage through the stretch run of the regular season. A loss in Provo would squash that possibility.
Here we go …
Season: 9-7
Five-star special: 1-1
All picks against the spread.
Lines taken from vegasinsider.com (for entertainment purposes only, or not)
No pick (FCS opponent): Oregon, Oregon State and Utah
Washington State (minus-9) at Houston (Friday): Mike Leach vs. disciple Dan Holgorsen should surpass the point total (74) by the end of the third quarter. This isn't a test for the Cougars, but it's at least a quiz after two weeks of no homework and playing paper football in the classroom. Long trip, short week: Pick: Houston
Air Force (plus-5) at Colorado: The Buffs are on letdown alert against a Front Range foe they haven't played in decades. The triple option isn't an ideal cure for the Cornhusker hangover. Pick: Air Force
Stanford (plus-7.5) at UCF: Let's see … blowout loss to a rival … All-American left tackle lost for the year … long trip into the humidity and afternoon kickoff … talented opponent that plays at warp speed: We wouldn't be surprised by a 20+ point Stanford loss. But instead of zigging, we'll zag. Pick: Stanford.
USC (minus-4) at BYU: The Cougars have allowed 504 yards rushing in two games. After Saturday, it'll be 1,008 in three. If you can't contain the Trojans' ground attack, there's no way to stop their aerial game. Pick: USC.
Arizona State (plus-14) at Michigan State: Hard time envisioning a scenario in which the Sun Devils make enough plays in the fourth quarter to win. But they should make enough in the first, second and third quarters to cover. Herm Edwards was 3-1 against the spread as a road underdog last season. Just sayin'. Pick: Arizona State.
North Texas (plus-14) at Cal: This has not been previously reported, but the Bears' return to campus after the ultra-late finish in Seattle was delayed for hours. Their flight had a layover in Letdown City. Pick: North Texas.
Hawaii (plus-21) at Washington: Good confidence-building opponent for UW quarterback Jacob Eason. Bad confidence-building opponent for UW's defense. Hawaii can score, and will score … and then it will score some more. Pick: Hawaii.

Oklahoma (minus-22.5) at UCLA: The Bruins were a 29-point underdog last year in Norman and a 21-point dog last year at home against Washington — and covered both times. And the points would look awfully good if we hadn't watched that Oklahoma offense. Oh, my. Pick: Oklahoma.
Texas Tech (minus-2) at Arizona: Our lean is the home underdog with the dynamic quarterback, but we're all in with the total. This sucker should zoom past 77 points midway through the fourth quarter — and past 11 p.m., too. Pick: Arizona
Straight-up winners: Washington State, Colorado, UCF, USC, Michigan State, Cal, Washington, Oklahoma and Arizona.
Five-star special: Hawaii. The Rainbow Warriors are better than Eastern Washington but not as good as Cal. Halfway between Washington's 33-point win and its one-point loss we find a tougher-than-expected encounter for a home team that has issues to resolve on the fly.

Najwa: Diamond story not a lie
Cape Town – Najwa Petersen on trial in the Cape High Court for the murder of her show business husband, Taliep on Monday denied that her story about giving a close friend polished diamonds to sell for her on the black market was a fabrication. Petersen has told the court how she assisted her friend Fahiem Hendriks with loans for as much as R10 000 or more and once by giving him valuable polished diamonds to sell for her on the black market. Prosecutor Shareen Riley reminded her of Hendriks' evidence earlier that the diamond story was a fabrication. Attorney fee She replied: "That's what he says." Riley questioned her about R20 000 she had given to Hendriks (not a loan). Petersen said Hendriks had wanted to consult an attorney and wanted the attorney to accompany him during police questioning concerning the murder. She told the court: "The lawyer wanted R20 000 for him to be present during questioning." She said it was because of her he was being questioned. She said the money was given by her father. Asked by presiding Judge Siraj Desai why she (or her father) had paid for Hendriks to consult a lawyer, she said it was because Hendriks did not have any money himself. The Judge persisted: "But why did you pay the money?" Locked in room with phone She said she thought R20 000 was a fair sum for what the lawyer was expected to do. Petersen said Hendriks had covered for her about the diamond story, because both he and she were under the mistaken impression that the diamond transaction had been illegal. Petersen said she "did not think of it that way" when asked if she had not considered it strange for the two intruders in her home to lock her into a bedroom that had a landline telephone. Petersen said she had received R30 000 insurance money for her husband's wrist watch and ring that were stolen during the robbery on the night he was shot dead. She said the watch and ring had not been covered by insurance, but she had nevertheless included them on the insurance list of items stolen from the house. The case continues on Tuesday.
