About Kaizen
Bob Newhart To Appear On The Show As Professor Proton.
Kaizen replied to Superlovelexi's topic in Season 6
Yeah, always liked BH. Getting CarolB would be HUGE!!!!
Not Sure If I Have Posted This Here Or Not...bernadette Becoming Psycho?
Kaizen replied to menotseen28's topic in Season 6
Yeah, Bernie has gone psycho on Howard and Amy, Raj, Penny. I think the writers are trying to get Bernie dialed in because the sweet & sour version of Bernie is funnier, whereas the pure sugar & spice version of her is boring.
Raj And Lucy Thread (Please No Major Spoilers And No Hating On Them)
LOL, I just responded to you in the other thread. Yeah, It was right for Lucy to be excluded.
Episodes 6.19 The Closet Reconfiguration (Mar. 14)
Kaizen replied to Tripper's topic in Season 6
Yeah, you're right about Lucy. I just thought Penny's sneakers looked like same one Leonard wears, and figured they were going to point it out for kicks.
Ditto. Although the humour level low, it was appropriate for the episode. Personally, I didn't mind the change and think these type of meatier episodes is a good thing. RE..the vibrator joke didn't bother me at all. It was funny.
I'm a bit surprised she wasn't in the Closet episode.
Way better than the last one. I really enjoyed the flow of a single storyline and a more serious plot. There was enough humor to prevent it from crossing into melodrama land. The Howard closure ending was brilliant. I got a sense the writers and cast enjoyed doing something a bit deeper and meaning full for a change. Howard's underrated drama skills really stood out. I'm usually not a big fan of H&B, but I actually enjoyed them this time around. Although Sheldon as a child, and doing an advanced knowledge bit with a "blonde monkey" Penny follow up wasn't new, it worked well. Overall, it was a very good "feel good" episode. Misc. thoughts... I'm was surprised to not see Lucy, and thought they dropped the ball with Penny's sneakers. After Bernie said Howard wore her pants, I was expecting Penny to say something like "Yeah, I'm wearing Leonard's shoes".
Episodes 6.18 The Contractual Obligation Implementation (Mar. 7)
Was there a meaning behind the girls as a princess? And, why it triggered Leonard and Howard horny button?
Is Raj Liked Well Enough To Pull Off A Cutesy Couple Romance?
Kaizen replied to Ar Diem's topic in The Show
Not sure about that one. I think Lenny and Shamy are a lock because L,P,S are untouchables and A was constructed for S. B, Lucy or whoever are paired with H and R should be up for grabs. If it works, great...if not kill it and move on.
I'm game for doing something with Raj, but i don't want to see some sort cutesy relationship with Lucy. The writers are already doing, and IMO are struggling to do the cutesy thing with H&B. They need to do something different with Raj and Lucy or don't do it all.
Easily the weakest episode of the year. The scenes where Penny is sitting on the bench and the kids in the classroom bored out of their minds sums up this episode for me. The only parts that I found remotely funny was Sheldons' googling, Leonards' rapping, and Howard's horse bits. The three story lines were weak and disjointed. Girls... A&B looked nice in costume. Evil Bernie is a step in the right direction. Penny "i'm a slut" jokes - again and 3x times, booooring. Guys...Leonard "my mommy didn't love me" again...zzzzzzzzzz. Raj and Lucy...the texting idea was neat at first, but turned into a snooze fest.
Sheldon "the Boyfriend"
Kaizen replied to Moonbase's topic in The Show
If Amy came across as weak or depressed i would surely feel bad. But, I'm not getting that vibe. (Sortof goes back to my comments in the doormat thread). I also can't overlook Amy is some sort top dog brain scientist, and the gut feeling that she's trying to alter Sheldon behavior in a similar way to her smoking monkeys. The results of her experiments, good or bad are helping her plan next steps. Come hell or high water, she's going to marry Sheldon in 4 years. Sheldon will likely be kicking and screaming at the alter, but loving it.
I like the idea of Sheldon being himself to everyone else but Amy and feel that's where the writers are heading. I think the decision to go at a slower pace is working out just fine. A more immediate or sudden change in Sheldon behavior would feel right. Having Sheldon resist change ( being dragged kicking and screaming, being an ass) is very much in line with how Sheldon is. I don't see it hurting the character and doing so, makes the actual change deeper and more meaningful. At this point, Amy may be getting the short end of the stick, but she's gaining ground. I don't feel bad or sympathetic for her. If anything she seems to be getting stronger and more determined not weaker. Plus it let's the writer's do some sort of "every trick in the book" run. Overall, I think they've done Shamy well.
Ship Zone Leonard And Penny Shippers Thread (Possible Spoilers)
Kaizen replied to C-Trayne's topic in Season 6
I think they should let the Penny rebuild sink in and stabalize Lenny a bit more. Getting Penny to the point where she can bring more to the table, before an engagement would be nice. They've just started to rejuvenate her acting career, so that would be good next step. Plus, it would be really cool to get the Priceline commercials into the show somehow.
Character Penny
Kaizen replied to Tripper's topic in The Show
That's awesome news. Had enough of the Lenny breakups, psycho drama, and seeing them dragged through the mud. I don't know if it's the writers or actors themselves, but Lenny can't fight. The big ones esp. are neither funny or entertaining. Let Shamy handle the drama and fight scenes. They're way better at doing mad and funny at the same time.

Both Marcel and Eddy succesfully defended their PhD dissertation recently in a public questioning and obtained their PhD title. The PhD research has played an important role in the start and development of NETLIPSE. It is therefore the opinion of the authors that this dissertation should be electronically available to all members of the European Community.
The need for mobility in current society seems to be ever growing. At the same time we notice that the large infrastructure projects set-up to meet this need, often produce disappointing results in terms of costs (increases) and schedule (overruns); as well as stakeholder dissatisfaction. To overcome this conflict, management quality in the delivery of large infrastructure projects needs to improve. In their thesis, six major European projects have been investigated and approaches are set out to deal with the complexity that underlies the problem.
Based on their findings, the authors construct an approach, which in their view offers the best chance of success in the management of these large projects: dynamic management. Dynamic management is based on an intricate balance between control and interaction. In addition, dynamic management embraces 5 X-factors that are keys in the successful management of complexity in LIPs.
Marcel Hertogh studied at the Delft University of Technology, Civil Engineering and at Erasmus University Rotterdam, Economics (obtaining Master's Degrees at both). He started his career at acontracting firm in 1988, where he worked on projects such as the 'Maeslantkering' storm-surge barrier and two tunnel projects for road traffic.
In 1993 he joined Berenschot Osborne. Currently he is a member of the board of AT Osborne and responsible for one of the two business units: Infrastructure, Urban Planning and Environment. His main field of experience is management and organisation of complex projects. He is the programme director of NETLIPSE and one of the project's initiators.
He has been involved as a senior consultant with several very large infrastructure projects - he was Head of Department, Quality and Organisation of the Betuweroute project for ProRail, and also undertook a due diligence study on the Oosterweel Junction in Antwerp. For the Westerschelde Tunnel he studied the feasibility and opportunties for private financing. He set up the project organisation and project processes of several big water projects, a big transport corridor project and two storm surge barriers.
He is a professional trainer and a frequent speaker at congresses. He is the (co-) author of 8 books about organisation and contracting for big investment projects. He has written more than 30 articles and has been interviewed for magazines and for radio and TV.
Eddy Westerveld works as a consultant and project manager in projects for AT Osborne in The Netherlands. Over past years he has been active as project manager, researcher and consultant in large infrastructure and urban renewal projects both in The Netherlands and abroad. Projects he has worked on include: the Westerscheldetunnel, Rijnboog Arnhem, HSL-South and the Amsterdam North South Metro Line. Some of his main fields of interest relate to bridging the gap between science and practice in the management of large infrastructure and to the management of complexity in these projects.
Recently he has been involved as the 'knowledge team coordinator' in NETLIPSE. He is co-author of the book 'Managing large infrastructure projects' which was published in 2008 as a result of NETLIPSE research.
Eddy specializes in project management which is demonstrated by his membership of the committee working on the new ISO guideline on project management, his work as a lead assessor for the IPMA excellence award, and his membership of IPMA in The Netherlands. In addition he is the lead author of the book on the ' Project Excellence Model' which was published in 2002. He is regularly involved in training and classes relating to project management for clients and for students.

Rutherford familiar face in victory lane
When the founders of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway drew up the plans for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, The Indianapolis Star was there and we've covered every Indianapolis 500 since 1911. RetroIndy reviews all 99 races.
Johnny Rutherford took the Chaparral that had gone through growing pains the year prior and dominated the month.
Rutherford won the pole by more than 1 mph (at 192.256) with Mario Andretti, who had missed the previous year's race due to Formula One commitments, second.
Flamboyant rookie Tm Richmond appeared to be the pole contender until he crashed in practice. Richmond ran out of fuel on the last lap of the race, which ended up helping him celebrate Rutherford's third victory.
Rutherford stopped his car long enough for Richmond to hop onto the sidepod, and rode back to the pits to the delight of the crowd.
Tom Sneva finished second after starting 33rd, his third runner up in four years and Gary Bettenhausen third after starting 32nd.
Sneva also became the first driver to start last and lead the race - for 16 laps.

Green Bay Packers' running back Aaron Jones gets new perspective as principal of the day
Bret Bloomquist
As a school kid growing up in El Paso, Aaron Jones thought he had a pretty good feeling for what the administrators of his schools did with their mornings.
"As a student, I just thought the principal chilled out all day," the Green Bay Packers running back and former Burges student said. "But I found out they have a lot on their plate, they are busy."
Jones found that out on Tuesday when he was Principal for a Day at East Point Elementary in the Ysleta Independent School District, a morning and afternoon that seemed to thrill him as much as it did the students.
More:Khalid, Aaron Jones among top El Paso 2017 news headlines
"The funnest part was going to the classrooms, seeing all the kids' reactions," said Jones, who is in town until April 13 when he reports for a round of offseason training in Green Bay.
YISD has the Principal for a Day program so various community leaders can get a look at the day-to-day challenges of the schools and to meet and inspire the students.
East Point's full-time principal, Dana Boyd, said her biggest challenge was getting Jones off campus for a luncheon where he spoke.
"He didn't say no to anybody," she said. "When it came time to go to the luncheon, he was, 'Let me do one more (classroom). He is so down-to-earth, so humble."
More:El Paso's Aaron Jones takes to Twitter to ask out celebrity crush Demi Lovato
The first thing Boyd did was show Jones her budget "because many people don't know how much money education doesn't have," she said. "I said our whole budget was probably (Packers' superstar quarterback) Aaron Rogers' salary for a game. He laughed and said, 'You're probably correct.' The whole purpose is for our principals for a day to get a better insight into what's going on."
From there Jones talked to a few selected students who needed a "pep talk, some kids involved in hardships," Boyd said.
Then came three students selected from each class who have "shown growth, never given up, show a lot of the traits Aaron showed and get one-on-one time with him," Boyd said. "He signed shoes, shirts, one kid, he signed his skin."
From there he met with 20 different classrooms. This was Jones' first time to be principal for a day but he had been to East Point twice before, and his parents delivered 30 bikes he donated to needy children earlier this school year.
"It was a lot of fun, seeing the kids excited," Jones said. "I got to see them from an adult perspective. I'm glad to get to do things like this."

Home Global Village Does the constitution allow the judiciary to review amendments?
Does the constitution allow the judiciary to review amendments?
The Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Mian Saqib Nisar said that the parliament is supreme but the Constitution is above it. The Supreme Court (SC) was hearing a case about the media commission on Tuesday when the CJP responded to the allegations of the parliament that the judiciary is interfering with their powers.
"Yesterday it was again asked how the judiciary could interfere with the legislative process," the chief justice said in a clear hint to the prime minister's remarks that the judiciary cannot review the amendments made by the parliament. He accepted the parliamentary supremacy but stated that the Constitution is above the parliament and no amendment can be made in the violation of the Constitution.
The unanimous opinion of media, political and social groups is that constitution should only be amended to meet the growing needs of the time and not for personal gains.
Prime Minister (PM) Shahid Khaqan Abbasi expressed disapproval of senior judicial figures' remarks for labelling the elected representatives as thieves and looters on Monday. Abbasi criticized the judiciary's role in executive matters and censured judicial activism. He alleged that courts are severely affecting the functioning of his government. Other parliamentarians also expressed that the judiciary shouldn't interfere with the matters of the executive and legislative branches.
The CJP responded by saying, "Headlines get made when we ask questions even though our remarks are to understand each other's point of view. If we question whether or not a certain person is qualified then is that akin to insulting the parliament? Is asking a question also insulting a parliamentarian?" He also expressed the SC's resolve to not be deterred by the allegations and utilize the powers bestowed upon them by the constitution.

Legal experts believe that the trichotomy of powers is a cornerstone of every democracy. Article 239(5) states that 'no amendment of the Constitution shall be called in question in any court on any ground whatsoever', and Article 239 (6) states that there is no limitation on the power of the parliament to amend any provisions of the Constitution.
However, Article 8 of the Constitution declares that any law which is inconsistent with the fundamental human rights conferred by the constitution will be null and void. Article 184 (3) allows the Supreme Court to take suo moto notice against any violations of the human rights so the Constitution does allow space for the SC to review parliamentary amendments even though parliamentary supremacy is maintained.
The Constitution of Pakistan clearly defines the jurisdiction of every institute in the country. The popular opinion is that Nawaz Sharif and his party want to limit the SC's powers to purge themselves from the numerous cases going on against them in courts.
This balance of power is very delicate and important for a flourishing democracy in the country. Constitutional experts believe that the provisions of the constitution should be followed by all pillars of the society. Any attempts by the judiciary or the parliament to curb the other's powers will result in mayhem. CJP clarified in today's hearing that the review is not meant to overrule parliament's decisions but merely to know the others' point of view.
Read more: Lawmakers using the constitution for legitimizing forgery !
The prime minister of Pakistan can call a referendum according to Article 48 (6) of the constitution and demand that review powers of the judiciary should be revoked or they can also be curbed by any constitutional amendment but the system created through such an act cannot be called a democracy. Governance analysts believe that accountability lies at the heart of democracy and the institute which ensure accountability are the courts.
The anti-judiciary diatribe was started by the PML-N after the 28th July Panama Papers case verdict of the Supreme Court (SC) which disqualified Nawaz Sharif who was the prime minister of Pakistan. Nawaz Sharif has since adopted an anti-judiciary rhetoric and criticized the SC decision sternly. His daughter, Maryam Nawaz has been side by side with his father in lambasting the SC. Sharif has held a number of public rallies since his disqualification in which he repeated his anti-judiciary remarks and flaunted his public support as the people's verdict against SC.
Article 184 (3) allows the Supreme Court to take suo moto notice against any violations of the human rights so the Constitution does allow space for the SC to review parliamentary amendments even though parliamentary supremacy is maintained.
Many political rivals of PML-N have accused it of damaging the institutes to save their own leader Nawaz Sharif. PTI chief Imran Khan has claimed that PML-N's attack against the judiciary is merely an attempt to hide their own corruption. While Opposition leader Khursheed Shah has agreed that parliamentary supremacy should be maintained, he also stated that it is wrong to amend the constitution to facilitate a few individuals.

Leading the way was the emergence of three new music venues, two of which were upgrades of previous establishments.
The parade began in March, when Willie's Locally Known opened the doors to new digs on Southland Avenue. Everything that made the original Willie's on South Broadway so appealing — a listening room environment with great sound and eats that reflected its dual existence as a barbecue restaurant — carried over into the newer and significantly larger space.
The venue also wasted no time in bringing in major concert acts. The first year of the new Willie's Locally Known included shows by Drivin N' Cryin', Alejandro Escovedo, Doyle Bramhall II and JD McPherson.
The Burl was the new club on the block — the block being the Lexington Distillery District along Manchester Street. Situated just off Manchester on Thompson Road, The Burl is a space both intimate and versatile. Its first show, staged in July, was a comedy performance featuring "Liberal Redneck" Trae Crowder, but its concert fare since has shifted from cordial folk-directed Americana (Amanda Shires, My Morning Jacket's Carl Broemel) to a lengthy roster of heavy electric locals that have turned The Burl into their new performance home.
The most dramatic transformation award goes to Cosmic Charlie's, which uprooted in December from its longtime digs at University Plaza on Woodland Avenue to the booming Warehouse Block along National Avenue. The old site was just that — old, beat up and oppressively dark. The new digs literally let the light in, with a stage located near large, window-centric garage doors that let you see the outside neighborhood that the club is now part of.
Big Boom
The annual country music gathering known as Red, White and Boom emphasized the latter in a big way in 2016. Initially a celebration that capped downtown's Fourth of July activities, the festival became a weekend event a few years ago with a move to Whitaker Bank Ballpark. But a calendar shift to Labor Day weekend led the way for Red, White and Boom to become a three-day event of national proportions.
Instead of a bill dominated by up-and-coming acts, the new Boom brought major headliners in for three consecutive evenings — Eric Church, Jason Aldean and Florida Georgia Line. Blessed with sublime late-summer weather, the festival's attendance grew each night, making each of the three bills the equivalent of a Rupp Arena turnout.
There were some justifiable consumer gripes about the delay in offering single-day ticket sales to the event. But the response and turnout were hearty enough for the sponsor, WBUL-FM, to offer a Boom bill of even bigger acts — Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton and Sam Hunt — for Labor Day weekend in 2017.
Lexington artists were immersed in diverse projects throughout 2016, several of which took them to literally new stages of their careers.
Duane Lundy, best known for his work as producer for myriad local and national acts at his studio, Shangri-la, took to the dance floor — or rather, his music did. Lundy designed a mix of live and recorded accompaniment for Blackbird Dance Theatre's March production of "Titus" (artistic director/choreographer Jenny Fitzpatrick's re-imagining of Shakespeare mega-gruesome "Titus Andronicus"). By the summer, he was back on more familiar turf, rocking out at Crave Lexington and The Burl with his progressive pop pals in Chico Fellini.
One of Lundy's production clients, Justin Wells, released his debut solo album, "Dawn in the Distance," this year, retaining some of the electric country dirt he kicked up for nearly a decade with Fifth on the Floor. But the solo record was rootsier than his former band, with shades of brittle Americana and blues.
But if there was one local who made himself present throughout 2016, it was Mark Charles Heidinger, better known to the indie folk-pop masses as the frontman of Vandaveer. Technically, Heidinger is a Louisvillian these days, but his Lexington roots run deep enough that he and performance mate Rose Guerin recruited a faithful pack of locals — J. Tom Hnatow (a longtime Vandaveer cohort), Robby Cosenza and Blake Cox — for considerable cross-country touring to promote the fine album "The Wild Mercury." The tour included numerous returns to home-state turf. The most inviting was a March date that was part of the Downtown Arts Center's inaugural Sunday Sessions series.
Festival growth
Two Central Kentucky festivals experienced significant growth as they hit their third anniversaries in 2016.
Although ravaged by May storms for much of its weekend run, The Moonshiner's Ball was encouraged enough by attendance figures to move out of HomeGrown Hideaways in Berea, its previous performance base, to the 400-acre Jenkins Farm in Estill County's Red Lick Valley for 2017.
The third installment of the Moontower Music Festival beefed up considerably its performance bill in August on a pair of side-by-side stages that included performances by Manchester Orchestra, Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue and a killer evening set by Drive-By Truckers.

Limited amount of templates and unlimited amount of investment programs are in constant conflict, as a result some programs use the same design. We have found as much as 3 HYIPs having similar website design: libertyhotdeal.com, bbcreleif.com and current-profits.com. Is this some kind of site templates crisis, or what?
The programs also have similar investment plans and ROI. Most interest rates are incredibly high, up to 550% after one week with Current-Profits or 200% after 24 hours offered by Bbcreleif. Anyway the programs' ROI are not really important now as I do doubt a program which cannot afford and doesn't bother to have a unique or at least rare site template deserves a small share of investors' trust.

My AutoWhiteListForceDelievery.txt file seems to have stopped working. When I go through the spam filter gui and force delievery of a quarantined email, the email goes through alright but nothing is added to the Auto White List. Here is a section of the log file from where I forced delievery through the gui.
If I go through the web interface, I have the exact same problem. Also, addresses that are in the AutoWhiteListForceDelievery.txt are back to being blocked again.
Has anyone had this problem before or have any ideas as to what might be going on?
Can you check the ini file to make sure that the path to the file is correct?
Here are the only entries in the spamfilter.ini file, which reference the AutoWhiteListForceDelievery file.
And, if I follow the path c:\program files\spamfilter\ I find the AutoWhiteListForceDelivery.txt. I am stumped.
I just tried deleting the AutoWhiteListForceDelivery.txt, and then restored it. Now when I force a delivery, it seams to work. I am really confused now.
What is the path of all your other filters AND what version of SpamFilter are you running? An earlier version DID have an issue with the "Default" path of the AutoWhitelist not being set. If you create an empty text file in the folder you actually want the file then "Browse" for it from the SpamFilter gui and click the save settings button, then it should work reliably.
PS: This could be confusing with both our names being "Dan[iel] S."!
I was getting a little concerned, Desperado... after seeing your "FRUSTRATED!" post a few days ago, that perhaps you had started having forum conversations with yourself.

Crossovers and SUV
Hybrids & Electric
Toyota Corolla is one of the most recognizable vehicles all over the world. The sedan is one of Toyota's cash minting machines that don't require much attention. To be fair, the Corolla is average at best from any front. Despite this, Toyota has sold over 40 million units of the model since its debut. The sedan is for individuals on a budget. The car is offered in six different trims for different tastes among these price-conscious buyers. Most enthusiasts love it for its solid reliability, superb fuel economy but most importantly its affordable retail price. Toyota took the sedan through a comprehensive redesign for the 2017 model year meaning it will carry over for the 2018 Toyota Corolla without any noteworthy updates. Its hatchback variant i.e. the Toyota Corolla iM (previously Scion iM) is reviewed separately.
2018 Toyota Corolla Exterior and interior styling
As mentioned above, the sedan is available in six trims. Like the outgoing model, the 2018 Toyota Corolla sedan will feature the Toyota Safety Sense suite of driver-assist systems as a standard for all trims. The suite features lane departure warning, active cruise control, automatic high beams, lane-departure warning that integrates steering assist and a forward collision warning system with automatic braking. The base L trim gets LED headlights and DRLs. It also features 15-inch wheels, cloth upholstery, a 6-way power adjustable driver seat and 4-way adjustable front passenger seat. It also features a 6.1-inch Entune touch-screen infotainment system that integrates Bluetooth connectivity. There are no extra options for this trim but one can opt for dealer-supplied lowering springs and special mats.
The LE trim adds keyless entry, 16-inch steel wheels, heated side mirrors, a rear-view camera and a climate control system. Unlike the L trim, the LE has an optional Premium Package that adds an upgraded infotainment system, alloy wheels and a moonroof. The most powerful of the 6 trims, the LE Eco is styled almost like the LE; its main difference is the more powerful engine as well as its better fuel efficiency. It also features a more aerodynamic belly and a dedicated Eco driving mode.
The XLE gets all features of the LE trim and adds a smart-key, a 7.0-inch touch-screen infotainment system, heated front seats upholstered in faux leather and 16-inch alloy wheels. An upgraded infotainment featuring an in-built navigation system is available.
The SE looks sportier than other trims. It features 17-inch wheels, rear disc brakes, a roof spoiler, a chrome exhaust tip while its side mirrors are integrated with turn signals. The model also features an upgraded instrument cluster and a Sport mode for the CVT system. There is an option for lowered springs, a performance air filter and a performance exhaust setup.
The top XSE trim is a blend of the sport treatment of the SE trim with technologies available on the XLE trim including the 7.0-inch infotainment system, smart-key and moonroof.
The 2018 Toyota Corolla is powered by a single engine but in two flavors. The engine is a 1.8 L, 4-cylinder engine rated at 132 hp and 128 lb-ft of torque on the lower tune. The mill is paired to a CVT transmission that delivers power to the front wheels. A 6-speed manual gearbox is optional for the SE trim. The mill returns 28 mpg, 36 mpg and 32 mpg on town, highway and combined drives respectively. The more powerful iteration of the mill is good for 140 hp and 126 b-ft of torque. It returns 30 mpg, 40 mpg and 34 mpg on town, highway and combined drives respectively. This engine is however available for the LE Eco trim only.
The 2018 Toyota Corolla with base LE trim starts with an MSRP of $19,445 inclusive of a destination fee of $895. The LE trim goes for $19,880, adding the Premium Package attracts an extra $1,215 while a Smartphone-activated navigation system is available for $450. Going higher, the LE Eco trim sells at $20,280 while the XLE trim starts at $22,880. An upgraded infotainment system is available on the XLE trim for $525. The SE trim, on the other hand, is available for $21,390 for models with a CVT system while models with the 6-speed system fetch $22,610. Finally, the top-of-the-range XSE trim attracts a $23,625 price tag.
Toyota has already started delivering the 2018 Corolla sedan to its dealerships.
Although the Corolla is hugely popular across the globe, a host of other models targeting the same buyers have sprung up and are giving it a serious run for its money. These models include the Chevrolet Cruze, Ford Focus and Volkswagen Jetta.

This £150,000 project, which is weather dependent, will involve, deep patching, regulating the existing road surface, laying a new surface course and renewing the associated road markings.
In addition to the above resurfacing works there will be deep patching works within the village, from the C23 Peesweep Brae to Bellow Mill.
The carriageway resurfacing preparatory works will be carried out during week days and a convoy system and/or two way temporary traffic signals will be in operation during this period, the A70 will remain open, although delays are possible.
To complete the final surface course and the patching works within the village the A70 will be closed, when signed accordingly, from the C23 Peesweep Brae to the C22 junction into Cronberry from 08.00hrs on Saturday 11 April until 24.00hrs on Sunday 12 April or until the works are complete whichever is earliest.
Local access will only be permitted to properties or land within the closed section when it is safe to allow, delays are possible.
A diversion route will be signed via the A70 to the B743 to Mauchline, A76 to Cumnock, at Dettingen Roundabout before re-joining the A70 through Cumnock towards Lugar and vice versa.
Works will continue week beginning Monday 13 April under convoy traffic management until all works are complete.
Please allow sufficient time when planning your journey as some delays will be inevitable. Advisory signs will be erected in advance of the works to alert the travelling public.

Android Q Brings In a New File Sharing Method: Fast Share!
By Sarmad Burki 2 weeks ago
For years iPhones were ridiculed for the lack of features. A gimmick: that is all it seemed. While the phone was quite ahead of its time, some may argue that it was just that. Looking over the original iPhone, we see features that were lacking true potential. For example, the camera app, while taking good photos, could not shoot video. Similarly, although the iPhone had a Bluetooth module, it could not transfer files. At the time, this was the deal.
Coming to the Android side of things and this was the deal. There wasn't much you could not do with an android phone. Even today we don't have that level of freedom with these phones. Perhaps that's because manufacturers don't want average users to become aware of the fact that they simply do not HAVE to buy a flagship every single year. Anyway, coming to the Bluetooth module, Android users could simply transfer almost every thing between their devices. It didn't matter whether their phone would even run the file, it was simple, they could just do it.
Fast forwarding to recent times, Apple came, although late, to the feature train as well. Today, you can do a lot with your iPhone as well. With the upcoming iOS 13, users have the ability to really exploit their phones to get so much done. From iOS 7, Apple users have exerted their exclusivity by using AirDrop between their devices. It is limited to Apple devices though but hey! It's Apple after all. But when it comes to file transfers with AirDrop, it kills it. Speaking from personal experience, it took me a little less than 2 mins to transfer a 1 gig video file from my iPhone to a Mac in my office. When we look at the Bluetooth side of things, those are gigantic leaps. But to understand completely, let's go over how the Bluetooth technology works for file transfer.
Bluetooth: How it works
Bluetooth Connection for File transfer has been around for quite while now
Bluetooth, in short, works over radio signals. The sender first makes a request to the receiver. Usually, there is password protection that helps in establishing a level of security. After the prerequisites have been met, files, which are made of 1s and 0s are encoded and transferred via radio signals. On the receiving end, these 1s and 0s are then decoded to form a duplicate file on the receiving device to have the file there. The problem here is that this takes a long while. The same time it took me to transfer a gig of data via airdrop, it may take to transfer 10-12 megabytes of data via Bluetooth.
So yes, clearly it can be seen that AirDrop technology that Apple instilled in their devices is superior to what Android phones have offered. But, here is the twist. Android developers may be coming up with something to counter Apple at their own game.
Android's Take On The Situation
We had seen the Android beam in recent years but not a lot of people used it. It does not come as a surprise that it wasn't that common. Sadly though, in the upcoming update of Android Q, the service is said to be slashed from it. This means, although the service wasn't quite popular, it would be a feature that is better to have than to not need than to not have but to need.
Luckily though, according to an article published on XDA-Developers, 9to5Google first teased a new feature in the latest update of Android Q. Dubbed as Fast Share, the service functions similar to Apple's AirDrop.
Fast Share by Android
There is no extra science put into the technology but only how devices interact with one another. As Apple's AirDrop, it uses a combination of Bluetooth and Wifi direct connection to share files between devices.
How it works is that the host contacts the receiver via Bluetooth and then the file encoding and decoding works all so similar. The main difference is the use of Wifi direct to transfer the file. What the advantage of using Wifi direct over a Bluetooth radio signal is that the former allows heavy file transfer over a shorter period of time. This is exactly what happens during file transfer with Apple's AirDrop. Developers at XDA did was finally get their hands on the feature itself and see how it really works. According to them, it would be a feature allowing file transfer between both Android and iOS devices. What this would bring is diversity on a connectivity basis.

What sets it apart from the Android Beam is that while Beam used NFC to make the first contact for a connect, Fast Share uses a Bluetooth connection to make an initial request. Just like Apple's service. Now stepping aside from the similarities, oh wait. No, they do not end. Just like AirDrops "Visible to everyone" and "Contacts Only", Fast share would function on a similar process. Using low powered Bluetooth connection to make contact, it would not take up so much battery when it is on.
For now, it is only compatible with Google devices such as Chrome Books and Pixels. Perhaps that is where Google is eventually going with this. Devices can connect and share files easily with their Chrome Books as it would create a well integrated atmosphere. Not only that, but Google uses this to push Chrome Books onto the users, to normalise the product in all markets. This is where the tech market is going towards, a mobile world where we can take our work on the go, be it on a tablet, a mobile device or a laptop. But it also brings up to mind that the Bluetooth technology is slowly fading away, being limited to periphery connections.
As for Fast Share, clearly it is still strictly in Beta mode and won't be active for a bit. In the coming updates though, we'll see how the service develops. The main question would be whether it is functioning as buttery smooth as the AirDrop or would it flunk or just be ignored as Android Beam was previously.

Bigg Boss 13: The Footage Of Sidharth Shukla Hurting Asim Riaz DROPPED By The Makers?
Sidharth and Asim's fight have been the centre of attraction for this season of Bigg Boss ever since the show started.
Ever since Sidharth Shukla has entered Bigg Boss 13 house, he has been making headlines for his violent behaviour. Sidharth and Asim's fight have been the centre of attraction for this season of Bigg Boss ever since the show started. The house is basically divided into two groups, Sidharth and friends; Asim and friends.
Sidharth's ex co-actor, Rashami Desai has also made a few big revelations on the show and highlighted his anger issues. Sidharth has got a massive fan following on social media and every now and then, his name trends on Twitter. In fact, the show's TRP is one the reason that the makers have been a little biased towards Sidharth.
A while ago, Sid and Asim got into a huge fight and Sid ended up peeling Asim's skin revealed by a close source to Spotboye. The source revealed, "Riaz's armpits and the area below the elbow were bruised badly. Sidharth got so out of control that he peeled off Asim's skin at certain spots with his nails."

Distribution and abundance of seabirds in Western Port, Victoria
posted on 2003-01-01, 00:00 authored by P Dann, John ArnouldJohn Arnould, R Jessop, M Healy
The distribution, abundance and biomass of seabirds in Western Port, Victoria, were surveyed between April 1991 and August 1994. Individuals were counted along an 81-km series of transects from a boat at approximately monthly intervals. A total of 25 seabird taxa were recorded, of which 18 and 15 were common to those recorded by an earlier study in Port Phillip Bay and waters south of Phillip Island, respectively. The most numerous species by far was the Short-tailed Shearwater (Puffinus tenuirostris) followed by the Silver Gull (Larus novaehollandiae), Little Penguin (Eudyptula minor) and Crested Tern (Sterna bergii). Distribution within Western Port was not uniform, with pursuit divers such as cormorant and grebe species being recorded mostly in the shallow Eastern Arm. In contrast, surface-seizing (e.g. albatrosses), surface-plunging (e.g. Crested Terns), shallow-plunging (Australasian Gannet, Morus serrator) and pursuit-plunging (e.g. shearwaters) species predominated in the deeper Western Arm of Western Port. These species were also seasonally abundant, with peak numbers for most occurring in late summer–early autumn, which coincides with the reported influx of juvenile clupeoid fish into Western Port. Average biomass (686 ± 395 kg) comprised mostly Short-tailed Shearwaters, Little Penguins and Pied Cormorants (Phalacrocorax varius). Biomass density (8.5 kg km–2) was similar to that reported for Port Phillip Bay (8.1 kg km–2) but lower than off the southern coast of Phillip Island (9.9 kg km–2).

Long ago, walking was basically the only form of transportation humans had. Going from one place to the next meant using our own two feet to get there, but luckily, our bodies are designed for walking. As time passed, we found new ways to get around a bit more quickly, from horses and bicycles to cars and Segways. Today, most people even search for the closest parking spot to the door when heading to the grocery store, just to avoid a long walk to get inside!
However, there are certain benefits of walking- especially for seniors- that cannot be denied. Adding at least 30 minutes of walking to your daily routine not only helps you avoid a sedentary lifestyle, but improves your health in more ways than one!
Improves heart health. For seniors, walking offers numerous heart health benefits. Getting your heart rate up daily leads to a reduction in the risk for high blood pressure and high cholesterol, and even coronary heart disease.
Lowers blood sugar. After eating, taking a 15-minute walk has been shown to reduce the after-eating spike in blood sugar some seniors can experience. Your body is using blood sugar more effectively to strengthen muscles, and insulin works better, too.
Reduces pain. Studies have shown that walking helps reduce some pain due to chronic conditions like arthritis. Some seniors experience lower back pain, and walking even just three times a week for around 20 minutes can help strengthen abdominal and back muscles to decrease chronic back pain.
Low participation cost. After you've invested in a good, sturdy pair of shoes, you can walk basically anywhere- for free! When the weather permits, head to the park for a stroll on the path or simply walk around your neighborhood. If it's too cold or rainy to go outside, head to a shopping mall instead.
Promotes social engagement. Walking offers an easy way for seniors to meet up with others, whether you join a walking group with friends or simply engage with neighbors while out on your daily walk. You can meet new people and enjoy your environment each day.
Boosts mental health. A daily walk can help you feel more positive about life. The endorphins released during physical activity create a sense of well-being, reduce anxiety and boost your mood.
The most basic goal in a rehabilitation program is to get people on their feet and walking again. After hip replacement surgery, for example, patients are asked to get out of bed and start walking to help promote blood circulation and prevent muscles and joints from seizing. It's a low impact way for seniors of all ages to improve cardiovascular fitness and strengthen muscles and bones.
Incorporate walking into your daily routine and start reaping the benefits! Get a pair of supportive, sturdy sneakers, lace them up, and then choose a familiar route that is free of obstacles. Make sure the surface is smooth and soft to put less strain on your joints. Start off slowly with a 10-minute walk and then gradually increase the time and your pace. Dress appropriately for the weather, and don't forget to stay hydrated! If you feel any pain during your walk, stop and take a break, and consult your physician if any pain continues.

FindACase™ | Stewart v. Parkcenter Behavioral Health Inc.
Stewart v. Parkcenter Behavioral Health Inc.
PARKCENTER BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, INC., and SHARON ALTHOLZ, Defendants.
Tyquan Stewart, a Plaintiff proceeding pro se, filed a Complaint [ECF No. 1] on March 29, 2018, against Defendants Parkcenter Behavioral Health and Sharon Altholz. He contemporaneously filed a Motion for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis [ECF No. 2].
Ordinarily, a plaintiff must pay a statutory filing fee to bring an action in federal court. 28 U.S.C. § 1914(a). However, the federal in forma pauperis (IFP) statute, 28 U.S.C. § 1915, provides indigent litigants an opportunity for meaningful access to the federal courts despite their inability to pay the costs and fees associated with that access. See Neitzke v. Williams, 490 U.S. 319 (1989). To authorize a litigant to proceed IFP, a court must make two determinations: first, whether the litigant is unable to pay the costs of commencing the action, § 1915(a)(1); and second, whether the action is frivolous or malicious, fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted, or seeks monetary relief against a defendant who is immune from such relief, § 1915(e)(2)(B).
Under the first inquiry, an indigent party may commence an action in federal court, without prepayment of costs and fees, upon submission of an affidavit asserting an inability "to pay such fees or give security therefor." Id. § 1915(a). The Plaintiff has done so in this case. However, the inquiry does not end here.
In assessing whether a plaintiff may proceed IFP, a court must look to the sufficiency of the complaint to determine whether it can be construed as stating a claim for which relief can be granted or seeks monetary relief against a defendant who is immune from such relief. Id. § 1915(e)(2)(B). District courts have the power under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) to screen complaints even before service of the complaint on the defendants, and must dismiss the complaint if it fails to state a claim. Rowe v. Shake, 196 F.3d 778, 783 (7th Cir. 1999). Courts apply the same standard under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) as when addressing a motion to dismiss under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). Luevano v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., 722 F.3d 1014, 1018, 1027 (7th Cir. 2013). Federal courts are also required to "check to see that federal jurisdiction is properly alleged." Wis. Knife Works v. Nat'l Metal Crafters, 781 F.2d 1280, 1282 (7th Cir. 1986); see also Neitzke v. Williams, 490 U.S. 319, 326 n.6 (1989).
Federal courts are courts of limited jurisdiction. U.S. Const. art. III, § 2; see also Johnson v. U.S. Office of Pers. Mgmt., 783 F.3d 655, 660 (7th Cir. 2015). The plaintiff has the burden to establish subject matter jurisdiction. See Lee v. City of Chi., 330 F.3d 456, 468 (7th Cir. 2003). In civil actions, federal district courts most commonly exercise federal question jurisdiction or diversity jurisdiction over cases or controversies. See 28 U.S.C. § 1331 ("The district courts shall have original jurisdiction of all civil actions arising under the Constitution, laws, or treaties of the United States."); see also 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a) ("The district courts shall have original jurisdiction of all civil actions where the matter in controversy exceeds the sum or value of $75, 000, exclusive of interest and costs, and is between . . . citizens of different States[.]"). In the instant case, the Plaintiff has brought a libel or slander suit against the Defendants. Libel or slander is a tort; hence Indiana law applies, and the Plaintiff must demonstrate diversity of citizenship in order to establish subject matter jurisdiction. See Gintert v. Howard Publ'ns Co., 565 F.Supp. 829, 831 (N.D. Ind. 1983). The Plaintiff, however, has not sufficiently pleaded the Defendants' citizenship. The Plaintiff appears to be a citizen of Indiana, and therefore if either Defendant is also an Indiana citizen this Court lacks diversity of citizenship jurisdiction. Lincoln Property Co. v. Roche, 546 U.S. 81, 89 (2005) (explaining 28 U.S.C. § 1332 requires complete diversity of citizenship between all plaintiffs and all defendants). In such a case, the Plaintiff may proceed with his libel or slander suit in state court, but cannot proceed in federal district court.
The Plaintiff may amend his Complaint to include (1) a federal claim, (2) the citizenship of the Defendants, or (3) both. If the Plaintiff wishes to invoke diversity of citizenship jurisdiction, the Plaintiff should also plead the amount in controversy. Because the Plaintiff has asserted state law claims over which this Court has no jurisdiction absent a showing of diversity, the dismissal of this Complaint will be without prejudice to the Plaintiff's right to refile his state law claims against the Defendants in a state court.

According to new research by the Mayo Clinic, HIIT can essentially stop cellular ageing in its tracks.
Researchers wanted to better understand how exercise affects the mitochondria - aka, the "powerhouses" of our cells that are responsible for creating more than 90 per cent of the energy needed to sustain life and support organ function.
They took 36 men and 36 women and split them into two groups (between 18-30-years-old and 65-80-years-old). The participants were then assigned a three-month training program which included HIIT, strength training or a combo of the two. Muscle biopsies were taken before and afterwards to measure the impact this had on their bodies.
Predictably, the strength training group saw the most improvements in their muscle mass. But the HIIT training actually affected participants on a molecular level. In fact, their mitochondrial functioning – which typically declines with age – improved by 49 per cent among the younger age group and a whopping 69 per cent among the older age group. In addition, their insulin levels, heart and lung health also changed for the better.
"Based on everything we know, there's no substitute for these exercise programs when it comes to delaying the ageing process," the study's lead senior author, Sreekumaran Nair explained.
That said, it's still unknown why HIIT specifically is responsible for such dramatic results.


All animals should be provided a humane death.
Prior to euthanasia, animals should be transported and handled carefully to minimize fear, pain, suffering and distress. State and federal laws pertaining to the transportation, handling, feeding and watering of these animals must be obeyed. Sick or injured animals should be separated or moved to a safe place and immediately treated until euthanized.
The termination of an animal's life should be performed by trained and qualified personnel in a humane manner and in accordance with the current version of the AVMA Guidelines on Euthanasia, regardless of circumstance or location. This includes, but not limited to, a veterinary facility, university, research facility, food processing plant, animal shelter, humane society, farm, ranch, or residence.

Charlie Brotman (CB) and Tom Wiener (TW)
CB: Opening Day, 1956. It was the Yankees versus the Senators, and I went to Griffith Stadium. I had never done stadium announcing before, and here I am introducing Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra, Whitey Ford. And in addition to introducing all these famous baseball stars, I introduce the President of the United States throwing out the first pitch, —
TW: —and that was?
CB: —which is traditional. President Eisenhower.
TW: Okay.
CB: I was so excited. After the game, I raced home. I talked to my wife Sada, S-A-D-A. And I said, you won't believe this, but there's no question. I've gotta be the most powerful man in the world.
TW: [chuckles]
CB: I mean people like Mickey Mantle, the world's greatest baseball player, had to wait for me to introduce him before he took the field. If that wasn't enough, I introduced the President of the United States who could not do anything until I said,"Mr. President, would you throw out the first ball?" My God, you won't believe how important that I am! And she says, —
TW: [chuckles] Yeah.
CB: "Charlie, I want to hear all about it, but would you take the trash out first?" [laughter] And I said "The trash, do you know to whom you're speaking? The most important guy in the world?" [laughter] She burst my bubble, and when I came back from taking out the trash, —
TW: Yes…
CB: —she said, "Okay, please tell me about—" "I said, it wasn't really anything." [laughter]
They have an expression. If you find a job that you really enjoy, you'll never work a day in your life. I fulfilled that slogan, that saying, that admonition of wisdom, and I've been a happy camper.
