Difficult mattresses are too firm, they do not have bounce and convenience, there is absolutely nothing gentle about the surface area and there is no comfort. Some people like the firmness however end up with persistent pain. Shoulder pain, pain in the back and numerous other musculoskeletal discomforts are typical when you sleep on a hard bed mattress. Soft bed mattress is not a much better alternative if it cannot evenly distribute the weight and doesn't provide appropriate spine or back support. Most soft bed mattress have the tendency to lose their firmness, regardless of how firm they were initially. There is no pressure relief at tactical points of the body. In a short span of time, the soft bed mattress totally gives in. Medium quality mattresses do not offer any break as they combine the drawbacks of difficult and soft bed mattress. They are just as bad for persistent pain like tough bed mattress as they can assist in arthritis like soft bed mattress.
Purple has as lots of as fifteen patents going into just one mattress. A few of the patents attend to pressure launching comfort while some address the support, some attend to sturdiness while some take care of no feel movement transfer. Purple mattress will not cave in, it will not establish any indentation or impression of the body, it will not lose its firmness or softness, the topmost layer or the base layer will not lose their primary qualities, the bed mattress will be versatile adequate to endure pressure thus supplying relief at tactical points whenever needed. It is much better to be like yard than a tree. Grass can stand up to a storm whereas a tree gets rooted out. Buckling of the surface is not a bad thing when one needs even distribution of weight or pressure. Purple mattress is nontoxic and allergen resistant or hypoallergenic. It is made from recyclable products. The mattress is CertiPUR-US ® certified.
You may or might not have viewed the advertisement video called the Purple mattress egg test. In the video, a sleep specialist utilizes 4 eggs at 4 different places, pasted onto a glass frame that she drops from a height on different bed mattress. The basic objective is to enjoy if the eggs break or they remain undamaged. The expectation is that if a bed mattress can evenly distribute weight and can soak up the weight of an individual or any load then there will be no particular force applied onto any part of the object or individual sleeping on the mattress. All particular pressure points will have equivalent relief as the weight gets dispersed equally throughout the mattress. For this reason, if a bed mattress is ideal then the eggs will not break. As one would expect, the eggs do break when they are enabled to fall from a height being pasted to a glass frame onto the majority of bed mattress with the exception of Purple bed mattress.
Now, there has been criticism of the ad because Purple mattress has a grid life formation on its topmost layer so the eggs can suit those grids or box like structures without getting blasted due to the pressure of the glass frame onto the upper surface area of the bed mattress. To be fair to Purple, it has the right to show its product's supremacy. It likewise has videos revealing a side sleeper test, back sleeper test and pressure mapping test. You can see them on the main website.
You can buy Purple bed mattress on Amazon or on the official site. You can utilize a Purple bed mattress discount coupon to avail a discount rate. But you would possibly consider Purple Mattress Vs Casper or Purple Mattress Vs GhostBed prior to you make a final decision. You must also think about Nectar mattress, which is superior to Purple, Casper and GhostBed to name a few. Let us quickly check out why.
Casper has 4 foam layers, GhostBed has three and Purple has three. Nectar has 4. Casper and Purple are thinner than Nectar. Casper, GhostBed and Purple have firmness rating of 6 to seven, 6 and a half to 7 and 6 to six and a half from 10 respectively. Nectar has a lower firmness ranking, hence providing more comfort without jeopardizing on stability and assistance. Nectar has the least motion transfer among the 4. It is likewise the least expensive. Queen Casper costs $950, Queen GhostBed costs $795 and Queen Purple costs $999. Queen Nectar mattress is tagged at $795 however you would get a $125 discount so you pay $670. Nectar has lifetime guarantee. Casper and Purple have 10 years. GhostBed has twenty years. Casper and Purple have a hundred nights trial while GhostBed has a hundred and one nights. Nectar has three hundred and sixty 5 nights of risk free trial.

8 Stages of DevOps Process Flow
date_range May 9, 2022 - 8 months ago
The term DevOps Process Flow refers to the continuous momentum achieved by a dynamic team using a blended functional pipeline activity.
Solution architects, programmers, and testers, as well as other key positions, will often make up the team. A successful DevOps project has eight steps.
1st stage - Planning
Planning is essential to gain a clear picture of intentions from the start. This way, you determine what to provide, perceive benefits, recognize the required resources, and how and when you can achieve the advantages. Benefits are the overall intended goals for your target delivery.
To ensure that everyone is only engaged in activities that add value and bring you closer to reaching those aims, it's critical to have a focus on priorities and end results. DevOps is built on a continuous value-add momentum, which helps eliminate squandered time, delays, and underutilized resources. Close contact promotes shared awareness and comprehension. These two factors alone help save money and time while producing a higher quality outcome.
It's crucial to create a high-level roadmap to obtain a sense of the schedule and goals. This method provides an overview of progress in accordance with the plan and guides you for future planning. It's an efficient way of communicating timeline targets and expectations.
2nd stage - Coding
The coding stage is particularly thrilling because it is where the first components of the work are created.
The following points are critical to progressing the delivery and supporting a common degree of awareness, consistency, and understanding of the build state:
Daily stand-ups
Collaborative sharing of ideas
Airing of issues and problem solving
The test function in this step helps you:
Get a better understanding of what is being built
Realize the technological obstacles that you could face
Understand how you can prepare code for further testing
3rd stage - Building
Building is where the next exciting developments take place, and where the first draft of the product is made available. This can be shared in a variety of ways for various types of reviews by a subset of individuals at the same time.
With this approach, user/technical/non-technical peer reviews can identify a wide range of issues early in the process, saving money and time while generating a higher quality product. It's necessary to take test data and environments into consideration in which you can test the created solution.
4th stage - Testing
Once we have code in the testing environment, we may run a series of manual and automated tests to detect issues such as code bugs, anomalies, quality measures, design, or system behaviour expectations.
This section investigates the code version that has been deployed to a shared staging area known as an environment. The environment is a restricted-access area where work in progress and draft coding can be explored.
5th stage - Releasing
The produced code, as well as the actions from the pre and post activities, are sent to a production environment during the 'release stage.' Developers can use technology to limit the distribution so that just a subset of individuals, systems, and places receive the updated codebase.
If necessary, we can hide certain features and establish a staggered delivery where restricted functions can exist and be used alongside new features. If some features aren't ready, they can be concealed from the display so they can't be accessed until they are.
The release team decides how and when to release builds into production. Release notes, operational documentation, and release-related documentation are prepared and sent to the intended audience and user community.
6th stage - Deploying
The sixth stage, Deploy, is where the entire code is released into production and distributed to all users. For successful DevOps operations, cost savings begin to be realized after a certain amount of time.
7th stage - Managing
This is the stage at which the software products are used in a real-world business setting. Usage is managed, and resources are available to address any operational concerns, technical system, or network-related difficulties.
Data is collected to better understand real-world trends, usage, customer and system behaviour, and to provide feedback and follow-up as needed.
8th stage - Monitoring
This is a critical step for fine-tuning the DevOps process through monitoring and feedback channels. The main goals of DevOps are to deliver higher-quality code faster as a team effort through:
Understanding objectives
Sharing ideas / queries / blockers / expectations
Working in parallel
Testing is an important activity because it guarantees that quality criteria are satisfied and that the user experience is prioritized at all times.
This is easier to achieve in DevOps because issues are shared and more individuals can propose solutions. Work packets can be juggled in response to known blocks and delays, as well as reprioritization, and so on.
Because of the frequent progress of daily stand-ups, we can expect replies considerably more rapidly as a result of close-knit teamwork.
Because the DevOps process flow is continuous, the product can evolve until it is no longer required or outdated. The method, on the other hand, lives on, and as it is developed, it can be applied to various things.

Q: How do I invert the bar size in matplotlib pyplot bar charts? I'm trying to set up an inverted axis bar chart such that smaller numbers have bigger bars, and those bars start from the top of the bar chart.  Ideally, my y-axis would vary from 10e-10 on the bottom to 10e-2 on the top, and would look similar to this excel plot:

In presenting this data, getting to a lower number is better, so I was hoping to represent this with bigger bars, rather than the absence of bars.
Inverting the y-axis limits makes the bars start from the top, but it does not solve my problem, since the smaller bars are still associated with the smaller numbers.  Is there some way to move the origin, and specify that bars should be drawn from the origin to the appropriate tick on the axis?
The data and code are really not so important here, but here is an excerpt:
plt.rcParams['xtick.bottom'] = plt.rcParams['xtick.labelbottom'] = False
plt.rcParams['xtick.top'] = plt.rcParams['xtick.labeltop'] = True
barVals = [ 10**(-x) for x in range(10) ]
ticks = [x for x in range(10)]
plt.bar(ticks, barVals)
plt.yscale('log')
plt.ylim([1e-2, 1e-10])
#plt.axes().spines['bottom'].set_position(('data', 0))
plt.show()

The resultant plot has bigger bars for bigger numbers and smaller bars for smaller numbers.  I could instead plot the difference between each value and the maximum, but I was hoping there was some built-in way to do this in matplotlib/pyplot.
Using matlab, the functionality I am looking for is setting the axis base value:
b = bar(ticks, barValues);
b(1).BaseValue = 1e0;

A: Given the way a normal log-scaling of the axis works, I think your best bet is to scale the data manually, and adjust the labels to match. The following is a simple example to get you started, using the OO API:
data = 10.0**np.arange(-2, -7, -1)
plot_data = np.log10(data)

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.bar(np.arange(data.size) + 1, plot_data)

You can set the ticks manually, but I would recommend using a Formatter:
from matplotlib.ticker import StrMethodFormatter
...
ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(StrMethodFormatter('$10^{{{x}}}$'))

This particular Formatter accepts a template string suitable for str.format and interpolates it with the tick value bound to the name x. If you only wanted to display the integer portion of the exponent, you could initialize it as
 StrMethodFormatter('$10^{{{x:.0f}}}$')

The symbols $...$ tell matplotlib that the string is LaTeX, and {{...}} are escaped curly braces to tell LaTeX to group the entire exponent as a superscript.
To adjust the limits of your chart:
ax.set_ylim([plot_data.min() - 0.5, -1])

Roller Derby Redefines What it Means to Be an Athlete
by Jessica D'Alfonso
Kate Monhollen (KD Mollish) and Pam Gersky (Timber Tantrum) | Photo by Jessica D'Alfonso
Henry Ford College English instructor and roller derby athlete, Chelsea Lonsdale, says that it was the diversity of players in roller derby that first attracted her to the sport: "I liked that derby included all kinds of women, all ages and sizes and backgrounds and interests," she says. Lonsdale got her start in 2015 with Floral City Roller Girls — a Michigan Roller Derby League team based in Monroe. Shortly thereafter, Lonsdale ended up transferring to the Downriver Roller Dolls, a team based in Woodhaven, where she played for one of their travel teams, Downriver Muscle, and a home team, the Blue Collar Betties. It is common for roller derby leagues to have multiple teams – several home teams, which play against each other, and at least one travel team, which competes against other national teams. "To me, roller derby means strength, athleticism, dedication, encouragement, and family," Lonsdale says. Currently, she plays with the Ypsilanti Vigilantes, an Ann Arbor Derby Dimes travel team, under the name "Charlie Defiant."
The game of roller derby is often thought of as violent – and it is, to an extent. There are definitely legal hits, using hips and shoulders. However, there are often discrepancies in the media's depiction of the sport. The 2009 film, "Whip It," starring Ellen Page, depicts an older style of derby, making use of elbows and even a banked track. The use of elbows in modern roller derby would cause an immediate penalty, or even an expulsion.
Roller derby can be a fairly confusing game if you're not familiar with it. Two teams battle in an hour-long bout. The game is split into two 30-minute periods. Each game is comprised of several "jams," which is a play that can last up to two minutes, after which players can switch out. Five skaters typically start on the track, one of whom is the "jammer," with a star on her helmet, and the other four are "blockers." One of the blockers is a "pivot," who can take over for the jammer at any time by taking their helmet cover. The jammer is the only player who can score points, by passing each blocker on the track. Blockers typically form "walls," where they stick close together in order to keep the jammer from passing.
Whichever jammer gets through the blockers first is the "lead" jammer, and can "call off" the jam at any time by signaling to the referees.
In her article, "The Man Who Got Roller Derby Rolling Along," Cecilia Rasmussen of the LA Times credits the start of roller derby to Leo Seltzer, who, in 1935, realizing the popularity of roller skating, decided to hold marathon races in which skaters would lap 64,000 times around a banked track over six weeks. Eventually, Seltzer partnered with Damon Runyon, who added more physical contact to the sport. Derby started to gain more traction in 1948 when it made its television debut. It peaked at five million viewers in 1969 but began to fizzle out as TV markets faded and travel became more expensive. The game has had a more modern resurgence with a stronger focus placed on athlete-run leagues, beginning in the early 2000s with the Texas Rollergirls. The Women's Flat Track Derby Association, the international governing body for the sport, began in 2004 as the United Leagues Coalition. The following year, representatives from 20 flat-track teams met at WFTDA's first meeting. Today, there are more than 400 teams registered with WFTDA, and more than 50 apprentice leagues. WFTDA hosts playoffs throughout the year, ending with the championships in November. The location of the championships changes yearly — last year it was held in Philadelphia, where the Melbourne, Australia team, Victorian Roller Derby, took first place.
Since roller derby is primarily a women-only sport, it has been a wonderful place for women to make long-lasting friendships: "I love watching strong women play against one another, hit hard, and then hug in the middle of the track," Lonsdale says "Roller derby also connects me with a group of like-minded people that I might have otherwise never met, and I really appreciate the friendships I've made with league mates over the last few years."
Though the game can be physically demanding, it can be rewarding, as well. "Personally, what I love most is being in my own body and seeing what I'm capable of," Lonsdale says, "Whether it's pushing through a tough wall, skating laps, or managing my mental health so that I can give my best during a practice or a bout, I think I've come to understand myself more through this sport."
Those interested in joining a team can email the Downriver Roller Dolls (info.downriverollerdollz@gmail.com), Detroit Roller Derby

When she was diagnosed with scoliosis at age 10 and put into a hard plastic brace that stretched from below her hips to under her arms, Graham Williams had no idea that her scoliosis would lead her to her life's passion and vocation. Today, 38 years later, she is the first Certified Iyengar Yoga Instructor in Raleigh and is passionate about empowering her students to enjoy the positive physical and emotional benefits yoga has brought her.
Graham was introduced to Iyengar Yoga in 1994 while living in Crested Butte, Colorado. Her first teachers, Donita and Gary Reitze, told her about Elise Browning Miller when they found out about her scoliosis. Elise specializes in Iyengar Yoga for Scoliosis, and Graham took her first scoliosis workshop with Elise in 1995. In 2004 she completed Elise's scoliosis teacher training in California.
Graham has practiced Iyengar Yoga for more than 20 years. She has taught children, teens, and adults in Colorado, Virginia, and North Carolina. She has made three trips to Pune, India, where she has studied with the Iyengars to enhance both her personal and teaching practices. During her second trip she was a "patient" in one of the medical classes where she got individual attention setting her up with numerous props to help her with her scoliosis. More about this trip is on her blog. She just returned from her third trip in December 2014.
Graham has taken thousands of hours of teacher training's, conventions and workshops from top nationally known Iyengar teachers. One of the first conventions she attended was in Estes Park, Colorado, with Mr. Iyengar. She also attended the Therapeutics Convention in Portland, Oregon with Geeta Iyengar. Her most recent teacher training's have been with Dean and Rebecca Lerner.
Graham's business experience includes her role as production manager of Critter Mountain Wear in Crested Butte, Colorado where she helped the owner manage and run the company for six years. When she moved to Denver, she accepted a position as purchasing agent for Textile Network. While in Denver she attended classes with Donita and Gary Reitze who moved from Crested Butte to Denver to open The Iyengar Yoga Center Of Denver. While subbing as a teacher in some of their classes, she decided this was the path she wanted to pursue. After moving from Denver to North Carolina she studied with Certified Iyengar Instructor Cindy Dollar in Asheville; she later managed Cindy's studio, One Center Yoga, where she taught classes as well. In 2006 she moved to Raleigh, where she taught in several locations before finding and renovating a space for her own studio.

The Village cannot stop someone from campaigningor going but we do have an ordinance which requires you to register at the Village Office with the clerk. She will issue you a permit.
The reason for this ordinance is prevent the illegal activity of scam artists, the placing of unwanted materials on private property, and generally nuisance activities.
Spring/summer newsletter for 2016 is this week at the following places. Exchange State Bank, Triple J Cafe, Carsonville Market, General Store,and the post office. You can also download a copy on line at the village website www,vaillageofcarsonville.org. You may also stop in at the office to pick up a copy. We are also posting a copy to download here in the blog.
While it's nice to think that all dogs should be free and that all dogs go to heaven. Neither is a proven fact. In the village dogs running free are violators of the animal ordinance. They are a pests. Often they are chased away. I saw a beautiful tan and black shepherd mix run in front of a vehicle on M-46. If you have a dog keep it under control and keep it safe! No one wants roadkill as a pet!
This time it won't be with a load of Sugar Beets!

Robbie Williams ribs Liam Gallagher claiming Take That reunion beats Oasis hype
Cheeky Rob recently challenged Liam Gallagher to a boxing match, and now takes dig at him again over reunion tour
James Cabooter
"When Oasis eventually get back together in five or 10 years' time, there'll be a wry smile that they won't sell as many tickets as we did."
Robbie Williams continues to goad Liam Gallagher, claiming any Oasis reunion wouldn't be as big as Take That's.
Cheeky Rob recently challenged Liam to a boxing match.
And now he says Take That's comeback in 2010 was bigger than the current Oasis hype.
Rob explained: "When Oasis eventually get back together in five or 10 years' time, there'll be a wry smile that they won't sell as many tickets as we did."

He could be right, the Progress tour smashed records as well as helping Rob find his feet again.
He explained: "Us f**king herberts from the north did the biggest tour the music industry's ever seen, incredibly special. I needed a place to go and hide in public. I'd taken three years off and my body, mind and psyche had just collapsed. I didn't know who I was or what I was doing it for.
"The boys helped me to come back. I got to sell the biggest album of that year and do the biggest tour the UK's ever seen in the history of music."
And he hasn't ruled out a TT reunion, telling the new edition of Music Week: "I do see a Take That reunion in the future. When and where, I don't know. I would think it would be more nearer pension age than midlife-crisis age."

Now he has a new festive collection, Christmas Present which is likely to reach No1 but scoring hit singles is much trickier.
He explained "The oxygen that I need has been taken away because streaming is massive and my audience don't stream. It's going to be very difficult to even get in the Top 20."
Christmas Present is out Friday.

Year 10 Match Report: Inter-House Football
The Year 10 tournament between Luce and Veritas kicked off with Veritas strong favourites to win the match up. They showed their dominance early on as Brandon Carter slotted the ball into the back of the net. The finish didn't't reflect the whole attacking movement though as there was some excellent build-up play before the goal; the whole team contributing to a quick 1-0 lead. This lead wasn't't kept for long though as Nathan Kernik buried the ball in the back of the net to equal the score line. The game carried on strongly right to the final second with end to end action, both teams came close however neither could grab that elusive winner.
The second game was 0-0 draw between the two teams. Both teams tried and tried to get a goal but neither of them could break the defensive walls both teams had put up. Neither goalkeeper had much to do because there were very few chances created. With the ball being kicked up in the air constantly, it looked more like a game of head tennis than a game of football. However, in the last second, the centre back for Veritas cleared the ball from a Luce header, it looped over the top of the Luce keeper and hit the cross bar. It was the most interesting thing that happened in the game.
Both teams in the third game tired throughout the game which meant this match was quite slow paced. Play became more forceful and a two footed tackle cleaned out Connor Price. The only highlight in the game was a goal that came from a pass in and poor defending. This led to an own goal allowing Veritas to come out on top and take the game 1-0.

text: Andres Arturo Garcia Menendez was born in Havana, Cuba - the third child after an older brother and sister. Garcia's father had a prosperous career as a lawyer and farmer; his mother as a teacher, but at age five, the family fled Cuba for Miami, FL after the Bay of Pigs, settling into a one-bedroom apartment. His father cleaned and maintained the inventory at a catering company, while his mother - who, of all of them, had the strongest mastery of English at the time - found work as an English teacher. Garcia, himself, collected bottles on Miami's beaches for extra income, but eventually the family would go into the hosiery - and later, fragrance - business run by Garcia's older brother.At age 11, Garcia attended Biscayne Elementary School, developing a major passion for the congas, devouring Cuban jazz and mambo artists like Jose Fajardo and Israel "Cachao" Lopez. He made his way through Nautilus Junior High and, entranced by the city's Cuban nightlife, hit the music clubs often. Though Garcia was an athlete and sports lover at Miami Beach High School - especially in basketball - an 18-month case of hepatitis would force him out of playing and inadvertently help introduce him to the pursuit of acting.Garcia attended Florida International University, taking acting classes in between his schoolwork and appearing in plays at FIU and Miami-Dade Community College. One night in 1975, he met his soon-to-be girlfriend Maria Victoria Lorido at a local club, proposing marriage on the spot. After college, he was all set to go into business with his father, but had an aching hunger to act professionally. Immediately after tearfully securing his mother's blessing, she firmly broke the news to his father that Garcia was off to Hollywood.In Los Angeles, Garcia's early acting prospects were slim. He had a small apartment and worked different jobs while taking acting classes. Garcia and Marivi Larido were married in the fall of 1982, but his early appearances in film and television were frustrating, as he was repeatedly typecast in bit parts. Things began to change when he managed to appear several times as a menacing gang presence on NBC's popular drama "Hill Street Blues" (1981-87) through 1984. That same year, the couple had their first daughter, Dominik, and his onscreen visibility received a huge boost when he was cast as Miami homicide detective Ray Martinez in the big screen serial killer drama, "The Burning Season" (1985). His cool, edgy appearance turned some heads in casting circles and Garcia soon adopted a long-haired look, taking up with the other side of the law as the drug dealing Angel Maldonado of "8 Million Ways to Die" (1986). With a solid one-two big screen punch for Garcia, "8 Million ," prompted Brian De Palma to court him for the true-life role of Al Capone's heavy Frank Nitti in his big screen version of "The Untouchables" (1987). Garcia wanted to offer a less harsh perception of himself and avoid cultural stereotypes, opting to appeal for the role of the nobler Italian-American rookie cop, Giuseppe Petri, who helped bring Capone to justice. The violent movie starring Kevin Costner and Sean Connery was a huge success, and the nature of Garcia's police role set a tone for his next projects. He next picked up the badge again to play Michael Douglas' benevolent police partner in Ridley Scott's Japan-set thriller, "Black Rain" (1989). Garcia also saw the birth of second daughter Daniella in 1989, before appearing as a dogged young IA agent pursuing Richard Gere's suave, shady cop in "Internal Affairs" (1990). Several of the films were made for Paramount Pictures, who had become a most ardent supporter of the Latin actor.As Paramount was releasing "Internal Affairs" at the start of 1990, it was in the midst of overseeing production on Francis Ford Coppola's controversial return to the fabled "Godfather" series. Garcia was handpicked by the studio over some of Hollywood's most established young guns to play Vincent Mancini, the wily, charming protégé and illegitimate nephew of mafia don Michael Corleone. Coppola balked at the suggested casting at first, but came to understand Paramount's passion for Garcia and hired him. Released that Christmas, "The Godfather III" (1990) severely polarized audiences, who either cheered or jeered at its conclusion. But there was no debate about his acting chops. The first phase of Garcia's career had culminated with both Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations in 1991. The 1990s proved to be anything but predictable for Garcia's career trajectory. His family expanded with a third daughter, Alessandra, in 1992 and they chose to split their time between Los Angeles and Miami's Key Biscayne region, where they had bought a home the year before. With similarities in presence to his "Godfather" co-star Al Pacino, Hollywood and its audiences expected Garcia's career to have the same resonance, but to their surprise, he seemed to have other ideas. Working again with Paramount, Garcia took on the role of a lovelorn reporter opposite Kenneth Branagh and Emma Thompson in the thriller "Dead Again" (1991), about murdered reincarnated lovers, as well as headlined "Jennifer 8" (1992), a minor small-town crime thriller which saw him playing yet another police officer. In between, he tried his hand at a big budget satire, as a man faking his role in a plane crash rescue in Columbia Pictures' "Hero" (1992). In 1993, Garcia, who had vigorously maintained his strong roots in Cuban culture, produced, directed and appeared in his own project, "Cachao Como su ritmo no hay dos!" ("Like His Rhythm There Is No Other") - a documentary about his longtime musical hero, Cachao. Returning to Hollywood films by starring opposite Meg Ryan, winning kudos for his sensitive portrayal of a husband and father patiently dealing with his wife's crippling descent into alcoholism in "When a Man Loves a Woman" (1994). He followed up this sentimental film with the cult favorite "Things to in Denver Do When You're Dead" (1995), a post-Tarantino comedy in which Garcia's reformed gangster Jimmy "The Saint" is roped by debts back into crime. He picked parts with his intuition, seeking out the avocado farmer role in "Steal Little, Steal Big" (1995) simply for the joy of emulating his farmer father.After segueing back into prestige projects with Sidney Lumet's "Night Falls on Manhattan" (1995), in which he was on familiar terrain as an earnest D.A. attempting to do right, Garcia was eager to step into the sh s of more real-life historical figures. These included the famed p t of the Spanish Civil War, Federico Garcia Lorca, in "The Disappearance of Garcia Lorca" (1997), and an equally-impressive turn in MGM's "Hoodlum" (1997) as mob syndicate Lucky Luciano - big screen misfires that underserved their performer's charisma. By the end of 2000, Garcia's ability to play biographical figures and his obsession with music brought him back to television as legendary trumpeter Arturo Sandoval in HBO's "For Love or Country: The Arturo Sandoval Story" (2000). For his work, he netted two 2001 Emmy nominations - one as its lead; the other as its producer.It seemed as though Garcia's onscreen brand of passionate sincerity would not return him to the studio blockbuster fold anytime soon, but he found his niche in the system when, in 2001, he was tapped for the ensemble cast of "Ocean's Eleven" (2001). Draped within a cold, cocky veneer, Garcia chewed the scenery playing Terry Benedict, a Las Vegas casino owner on the receiving end of an elaborate heist. Danny Ocean himself, George Clooney, roped in a motley crew of actors, with Garcia fitting in perfectly among the crowd of unconventional, self-effacing matinee hunks including Clooney himself, Brad Pitt and Matt Damon. The film was a success with audiences and critics alike.By 2002, Garcia was also riding high with the birth of a son, Andres Antonio. An "Ocean's" sequel was inevitable as well, with too much profit and fun to be had on the line. Garcia had several films in the can in 2004, but made his biggest splash in that summer's "Ocean's Twelve," in which Benedict vowed to get his stolen money back even tracking the Ocean's gang internationally. As impressive as the franchise had become, Garcia personally eclipsed that milestone for himself with a second project of his own. Recruiting a diverse mix of Latin actors and Hollywood heavyweights like Bill Murray and Dustin Hoffman, he directed and executive produced "The Lost City" (2005), a romantic love letter to Havana, Cuba's vibrancy in the 1950s, and co-written with Cuban author, Guillermo Cabrera Infante. Garcia played Fico Fellove, a member of a middle-class nightclub-owning family forced into exile following the societal changes of the Castro regime. After years of gestation, the film started production in the summer of 2004. Infante had died by then, but Garcia used his 300-page script as a guide. Long an accomplished conga, guitar and piano player, Garcia - who won a Grammy for producing Cachao's 2004 album, Ahora Si! Even wrote its mambo-flavored score. Despite mixed reviews upon the movie's release, Garcia's deep feelings for Cuba remained clear.By 2007, Garcia had solidified his inroads into major studio projects, but seemed content to step back and act alongside other great talents, rather than carry films on his own. A commanding presence, nonetheless, he was the F.B.I. director overseeing the protection of magician informant Buddy "Aces" Israel in "Smoking Aces," a slick ensemble action film - not unlike the "Ocean's" franchise - which kicked off the year. After a lengthy absence, "Ocean's Thirteen" (2007) was prepped for the summer. Enough time had passed, even allowing for Garcia's character to make peace with his former nemesis (Clooney) and ante up into the caper himself.

Spanish Courses in Barcelona
On this page you'll find tips and advice on how to choose a Spanish language school in Barcelona. Many schools are offering Spanish courses in Barcelona, but you need to consider some key points before you choose which one.
Listed below are some important points you need to consider when accessing a Spanish language school in Barcelona.
1) How many Spanish language levels does the school offer?
If there are not sufficient language training levels you could be placed on a course that is either too high or too low for your standard. Also, check whether it's possible to change from one course to another if you find the level of the training is not right for your needs.
2) What size groups do they teach?
Small groups, no larger than 15 people, is most favourable as you'll receive more personal attention. The group size is most important later on in your language training when you may need to ask more specific questions.
3) Where is the Spanish school located in Barcelona?
You preferably want a Spanish language school that is situated right in the centre of Barcelona city to ensure you benefit from the amenities the city has to offer and good transportation links.
4) How many study hours per day?
Language schools use names like intensive and super-intensive etc., but these terms don't actually mean much as each school has its own definitions of these terms.
What you need to know is how many hours per day is each course. The schools can offer a wide range of study times anything from 1 hour to 8 hours per day. Four hours of language training per day is as much as most people can comfortably take and 2 hours per day is perfect if you also want to experience some of the Barcelona lifestyle and sights as well as your Spanish language study.
There are homework exercises that accompany the language courses, and these can take several additional hours to complete. As a rough guide assume that you'll spend approximately 50% of class study time doing homework and revision.
5) What are the costs for the study materials?
All Spanish language schools in Barcelona have accompanying course books, and these can be quite expensive. Ask the school which coursebooks they'll be using and remember to account for the cost of these into your budget.
6) Additional materials
A good dictionary is essential, and an electronic pocket dictionary is much quicker and more convenient to use. The added advantage of the electronic dictionary is that it's equivalent to a large dictionary but will fit in your pocket -handy for when you are around town. There are many brands of electronic translators available on the market, but the brand I found the best was Franklin. Many electronic dictionaries also have verb conjugations dictionaries built into them (something that the paper dictionaries don't have).
7) What amenities does the School offer?
The first point to ask does the classrooms have natural light. Many of the older buildings in Spain have interior rooms with little or no natural light. For many people studying in a classroom with natural light is much more comfortable.
Air conditioning for classrooms during the summer months in Spain (June - September ) may be worth considering although many people prefer not to have air conditioning as it can make the atmosphere quite dry. It depends on your preference. Bear in mind that language schools that do offer air conditioning will charge more for their courses as it is expensive to operate.
Heating during the Winter (November - February) is not as important (it doesn't get too cold here) although you will need to wrap up warm if there is no heating in the school.
Some schools also offer other facilities like internet access and a gym etc., but these can be obtained relatively cheaply in the city independently of the language school. It's best, therefore, not to be seduced too much by a language school offering a host of added amenities unless they directly relate to your Spanish course study.

I believe we can easily get up to 11.4, 11.8 (million barrels a day) almost immediately, in a few days, because all we need is to turn valves," Saudi Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi told CNN's John Defterios. "Now to get to the next 700 or so, we probably need about 90 days."
When asked about whether Saudi Arabia could make up for Iran's exports of 2.2 million barrels a day, al-Naimi said the country has a spare capacity "to respond to emergencies worldwide, to respond to our customer demand, and that is really the focus. Our focus is not on who drops out from production, but who wants more."
"Our wish and hope is we can stabilize this oil price and keep it at a level around $100" for the average barrel of crude, al-Naimi said.
A good deal of attention has been paid to the second comment since previously the Saudis had said they were comfortable with an oil price of around $75.
This is a bit of a pet peeve of mine, so I'd like to offer an alternative explanation. Here it is: Neither the Saudis, nor anyone else, control the price of oil anymore. Saudi Arabia has very little spare capacity to speak of, and couldn't open the taps to bring the price of oil down even if it wanted to. So no matter what the price of oil is, that's approximately the price the Saudis say is fair. That way they don't have to admit that they no longer have the ability to seriously affect oil price movements.
This, by the way, is the same dynamic at work in OPEC meetings. They meet, they talk, and then they release a statement saying that they aren't going to increase production quotas because the current price is fair and "customers aren't asking for more oil." Well, of course they aren't. By definition, customers aren't asking for more oil as long as oil is selling at the market-clearing price. Which it is. Because if it's not, then the price goes up, and guess what? Markets clear and customers aren't asking for more oil. Nonetheless, this charade regularly gets played out anyway, because OPEC doesn't want to admit that their production quotas are mostly meaningless these days. With occasional exceptions (when the 2008-09 recession temporarily cratered oil demand, for example) OPEC countries are all pumping flat out and couldn't deliver much more oil if they tried.
Bottom line: be suspicious of any explanation that suggests OPEC or Saudi Arabia or anyone else "wants" oil prices to be at a particular level. There was a time when they really did, and when their opinions mattered. But that time is long gone.
Now I generally yield to no man when it comes to skepticism of Mr al-Naimi. And I continue to wonder why, if Saudi Arabia can just turn the valves to 11.8mbd, it was apparently not producing 10mbd when Mr al-Naimi said it would late last year.
After falling as low as $40 in the aftermath of the financial crisis, the Saudi production cuts brought them back to around $70 give or take - fairly consistent with the $75 that King Abdullah had said was a fair price in November 2008.
So, now, in betting against oil prices you'd have to worry that the one power Saudi Arabia does have is to make sure that oil prices don't go far under $100 for very long. Since Brent is about $110 as of this writing, that leaves a lot more room for it to increase than to decrease.
The irony is that by Saudi Arabia supporting prices in this way, they're helping the world transition away from oil. Their actions help dampen longer-term price swings and keep prices high enough to force investment into alternatives and efficiency. Last year I kicked around the idea of using the SPR to dampen price swings, that wouldn't have worked all that well. Saudi Arabia is in a much better position to do it.
I think they went even further in 2009 and called 75 to 85 dollars a "target price range." After this time, of course, Brent went to $120, and the supposed 11.4 mbpd was nowhere to be seen. It's not like they have been drilling like crazy in the meantime, so it is thus not at all clear where the 11.4 mbpd would come from now.
The sideways move in prices in 2011 in the face of increased production would seem to indicate higher prices ahead in 2012, especially if production cannot be increased further.
"And I continue to wonder why, if Saudi Arabia can just turn the valves to 11.8mbd, it was apparently not producing 10mbd when Mr al-Naimi said it would late last year."
"I believe we can easily get up to 11.4, 11.8 (million barrels a day) almost immediately, in a few days, because all we need is to turn valves," Saudi Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi told CNN's John Defterios.
Hmmm, where does he say pump? All I see is "open valves"...like valves to storage tanks? Maybe the "next 700" is spare capacity? I of course realize that their storage is limited but his answer is technically not deceitful (although typically misleading) if they ramp up storage "production".
I acceptyour point KSA and a price drop. But demand can still fall. In china for example. And production outside KSA can grow.
Unknown - interesting news indeed! My first instinct is it's unusual for JODI to be this up to date in posting stats - but I'll have to check my records to be sure one way or the other.


Here are two. I may make some more; have other projects in the works but I am grooving on these hearts. In fact I made a purse using one block that didn't quite turn out to spec. Here is a peek.
Thanks Sophie for a fun block to play with.
I love it! Is that your own purse pattern?
Thank you LJ, it is Simplicity pattern #0483. I just sewed enough fabric around the heart to cut out the pieces.
The bag is adorable … and it's looks like it's very functional, too.
I've added your blocks to the list. With yours and Linda's, our new total-so-far in February is 166 hearts.

This collection of modern Inuit drawings features a remarkable variety of subjects and styles.
Qavavau Manumie's finely executed drawings differ from each other stylistically: In the diptych 35, the artist has drawn a polar bear looking through a porthole down on an isolated igloo and made an ironic comment on the usual human-bear relationship. Drawing 82 is a more classical work - symbolizing spring, a dainty, colorful bird holds a decorative leaf in its beak.
Tim Pitsiulak's two pieces are masterworks of realistic drawing. Both depict specific moments in time. Drawing 83 captures the fluid movement of a walrus during just a split second of its life deep in the sea, with strong lines and voluptuous shading. In "Shedding Velvet", the artist expresses a humorous perspective on the caribou's annual loss of its antlers, highlighting a temporary, intricate stance with deft pencil strokes.
Jutai Toonoo's bold semi-abstract style has produced a striking portrait of an Inuk, in "Sun Burnt". "Music" uses vibrantly colored lines to create a scintillating symbolic guitar which plays a heartfelt love song. Vibrating lines envelope the guitar, merging with it.
Drawing 79 by Ningeokuluk Teevee communicates a cosmological meaning. A contemplative bird is perched on the cusp of a volcanic globe and a full moon is reflected in its oceans; the bird casts a shadow between itself and the reflected moon. Ningeokuluk's drawing "Raven Transformer" exemplifies the Inuit belief in the power of shamans to transform into fauna, in order to mediate for people between their troubled earthly situations and helping spirits.
"My Old Amautic" by Shuvinai Ashoona combines the subject of a woman's traditional form of outerwear with modern designs, featuring forms of shelter in nomadic times and a few mysterious planets.
In "Tea Break after Berry Picking", in an abstract manner Nicotye Samayualie lays out a number of basic kitchen elements around an enormous basket of freshly picked berries, above which hover mugs of piping hot tea.
In Cee Pootoogook's fantasy drawing, "Fishing Bears", three polar bears float gracefully among schools of arctic fish, in what must be a dream come true for them.
Drawing 80 by Malaija Pootoogook is a warm, comforting image of the mother-and-child archetype, which this happy pair of owls illustrates. Her drawing 84 embellishes on the maternal theme: a large bird protects little chicks with her generously outspread wings.

2016 Memorial Day Ceremony
VMPF
Each year on the final Monday in May the United States celebrates the federal holiday Memorial Day. Originally Memorial Day was known as Decoration Day, meant to honor the Union and the Confederate soldiers who died during the American Civil War. By the 1900s it had become a day to celebrate all American soldiers who died while serving in the military. It wasn't until 1967 that it was legally named Memorial Day. It became a federal holiday in 1971.
The Pensacola Veterans Memorial Park Foundation will present its annual observance of Memorial Day at 1 p.m. May 29 at Veterans Memorial Park on Bayfront Parkway in downtown Pensacola.
The Guest Speaker this year will be Tony Gain, a highly-decorated retired Marine Colonel who completed three combat tours, instructed at some of the Marine Corps' most prestigious Leadership and Training academies, and served with the State Department.
The local Boy Scouts of America will conduct an official Flag Retirement Ceremony and the Winners of the Memorial Day Essay Contest will be announced and recognized.
The public is invited and encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets.

Cyclohexane, heptane and toluene were evaluated for possible replacement of benzene in the preparation of aflatoxin standard solutions. The results of a 6-month study showed that these solvents can be substituted for benzene, provided they are not unduly exposed to light. The superiority of benzene as a solvent for aflatoxin standards was clearly demonstrated in a test in which these solvent systems containing 5μg B1 /mL, were exposed to daily lighting in the laboratory for 3 months. Complete photodegradation of aflatoxin B1 occurred in the cyclohexane, heptane and toluene systems whereas only a 15% B1 decrease occurred in the benzene system.

Q: Expectation of a local martingale and uniform integrability Let $N_t$ be a local martingale and $\tau_n$ be the localizing sequence. As per the book I am following then we have the following

I dont understand how uniform integrability will make the expectation constant. Can anyone please explain this part?

A: I assume that in this book local martingales are normalised so that $\mathbb{E}[N_0] = 1$ (otherwise $N_t$ can clearly be a martingale with a different expectation).
In this case,
$$\mathbb{E}[N_{t \wedge \tau_n}] = \mathbb{E}[N_{0 \wedge \tau_n}] = \mathbb{E}[N_0] = 1$$
for each $n$. $N_{t \wedge \tau_n} \to N_t$ pointwise a.e. as $n \to \infty$. Uniform integrability and pointwise a.e. convergence imply convergence of the integrals so that $$\mathbb{E}[N_t] = \lim_{n \to \infty} \mathbb{E}[N_{t \wedge \tau_n}] = 1.$$

NEXT ARTICLE 'Trent's display showed he has gone up a level'
Meet the Academy: Glen McAuley
Glen McAuley, in his own words, 'likes scoring goals'.
The Dublin-born striker's total of 13 so far in 2016-17 makes him the U18s' leading marksman in what is his first season with Liverpool.
Earlier in the campaign, Neil Critchley praised McAuley's work ethic and labelled a player who turns 17 later this month an 'old-fashioned centre-forward who always puts himself in goalscoring positions'.
"When he does that, more often than not he finishes," added the U18s boss.
So, does McAuley agree?
"I just like to score goals! I wouldn't say I'm 'old-fashioned'...," he laughs, when reminded of his manager's words by Liverpoolfc.com.
"But yeah, that's the way I like to play - to get in behind and get goals."
Goals, and the players who score them, are a recurring theme throughout our chat at the Academy - which came after training and before a team trip to the cinema - earlier this week.
It's clear why Critchley has also described McAuley as a 'bubbly character' as the young Irishman smiles his way through a conversation that ranges from his favourite footballers (spoiler: they're strikers) and food, to Michael Jordan and what part of his game he's been working on with a certain Steven Gerrard.
Read on to find out more about McAuley in the first of Liverpoolfc.com's new 'Meet the Academy' series…
How are you finding life at Liverpool?
"It's good, I'm enjoying it. Everything's going good, so hopefully I can carry on. Everyone's been nice and we all get along, so it's good."
Is this the first time you've lived away from home?
"Yeah, and I like it - you don't get told what to do as much! I live with house parents in Rainhill, right beside the school. I go to the school on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays."
Who did you play for before moving here last summer?
"St. Joseph's, a local team in Dublin. I've played for a few teams, Crumlin, Cherry Orchard, Kingswood, then St. Joseph's. I've played for [the Republic of] Ireland U15s, U16s and U17s as well."
What made you choose Liverpool?
"When I got here, it just felt like the most family club. I felt welcome here, and my dad's a Liverpool fan as well."
Do you support the Reds too, then?
"No, I'm more Shamrock Rovers, the Irish team. I've always supported them."
What's it like having Steven Gerrard working here as a coach?
"Amazing. Just seeing him and everything, and then talking to him - he's just a normal man, funny as well! It's great having him around the place."
Gerrard was on the sidelines for the U18s' draw with West Brom last weekend. How does it feel when he's watching you play?
"It makes you want to play better, doesn't it? You try to not make mistakes."
What have you spoken with him about?
"I've just been having normal conversations with him. And then he's told me about using my arm to hold people off in training, because I need to work on my hold-up play and he's helping me with that."
If you had to pick one current Premier League player you look up to and see yourself in, who would it be?
"Diego Costa. I like Costa, he's aggressive and he's a good finisher. Once he gets a chance, it's a goal."
Who in Liverpool's first-team squad do you admire most?
"I like watching Coutinho the most, but I like Origi. He's a big, physical striker and a good finisher as well. I'd like to get more like them [Costa and Origi]."
Who's your footballing idol?
"I don't know with that one, I don't have one person who's come into my head. Robbie Keane, he's from Tallaght, where I'm from in Dublin, so probably him. If I could do everything he's done…"
What's the highlight of your career so far?
"Getting a contract for Liverpool and so far this year being top scorer in the U18s."
What's your dream in football?
"To play for Liverpool's first team, that's my main aim. Going to a World Cup with Ireland, that'd be good too."
What's the best football game you've ever watched?
"I'm going to have to go for Ireland against Italy in the Euros last year, that was amazing. Robbie Brady scored with a last-minute header. We had all my friends around my house back in Ireland for that game – my house was shaking and everyone was going mad!"
Favourite sport other than football?
"I like basketball. I like Michael Jordan, 23's my favourite number and then I like his shoes as well so that got me more into watching basketball! It's quick, isn't it? It's always full of action.
"I'm not very good at it, I just like watching it. I played a little bit, but only in school and I was terrible so I thought 'scrap that off'! The Cleveland Cavaliers are my favourite team, because of LeBron James and Kyrie Irving."
Favourite subject at school?
"It was history until I moved over here. I liked learning about Irish history. I like science - chemistry in particular. Once I've finished playing football I'd like to do something with chemistry. I'd like to go to uni to study it, but it depends how football goes."
Favourite food?
"Do you know what 'coddle' is? It's an Irish dish. It's a stew with boiled sausages, bacon, potatoes, tomatoes, leek in a soup kind of thing. It's my favourite, but it's only in Dublin."
Sounds a bit similar to Scouse. Have you tried that yet?
"Yeah, I like it but it's not as nice as Irish stew!"
Favourite TV show?
"Fresh Prince of Bel Air. I've already watched them all before they came on Netflix but now I'm watching them all again - they never get old, do they?!"
What are you listening to at the moment?
"I like rap music. London rappers, Manchester rappers like Jay Silva and Yxng Bane. I like Bob Marley as well - 'Three Little Birds', 'Redemption Song'. The last album I listened to was 'Legend' by Marley, I listened to it this morning.
"We have the speaker on in the changing room and that's mainly just loud rap music. Okkie [Okera Simmonds] is in charge - I don't get involved! Most of us have the same songs anyway, mine and Okkie's playlists are basically the same, so I don't waste my battery on my phone!"
Describe yourself in three words…
"Happy, stylish and positive."
Describe Liverpool FC in three words…
"Passion, togetherness and willingness."

Moschino x H&M proved that fashion is still a family affair during the Jeremy Scott–helmed spring 2019 ready-to-wear collection show in New York on Wednesday night.
Earlier in October, the Moschino creative director exclusively told W that, as the "king of collaborations," he sought to make this alliance with the Swedish brand "the most Moschino collection," taking the classic logos of big brands like MTV and Disney and giving them a cartoonish Moschino spin. It's a collaboration that totally makes sense, and surprisingly had not occurred until now, with its glittery patterned pieces and some sexed-up yet recognizable motifs. The runway was inspired in equal parts by Times Square, billboards, and television color bars, and if it weren't for the Moschino x H&M logomania, attendees might have thought they were on the set of TRL in its heyday.
On the runway, the high-low collaboration did more than just appropriately mix the couture elements of Moschino with the accessibility of H&M—it brought families together. Gigi Hadid, Bella Hadid, and Anwar Hadid all walked in the same show. The last New York fashion show the Hadid siblings walked together was Prabal Gurung's spring/summer 2019 show during New York Fashion Week in September.
Young scions like Frances Bean Cobain, Miles Richie, and Paris Jackson made it to the front row. It was all about the family, all thanks to Jeremy Scott. "For some reason this is the only man that can bring me and my god sis together," Richie said in a caption of an Instagram photo of himself with Scott and his god-sister Paris Jackson.
Of course, the H&M x Moschino launch would not have been complete without the addition of Naomi Campbell, who walked the runway, RuPaul's Drag Race winner Aquaria, and the legendary Amanda Lepore. Mj Rodriguez (who is featured in the campaign for the new collaboration) and Indya Moore, members of the Pose family, got cozy in the front row, too.
Scott may be the only man who can get three Hadid siblings, an iconic mother-daughter duo from Pose, and god-siblings like Richie and Jackson all under one roof.

Vácduka község Pest vármegyében, a Váci járásban.

Fekvése
Pest vármegyében, az Alföld egyik öblözetének tekinthető Veresegyházi medencében fekszik, Váctól 7 km-re délkeletre. Főutcája a 21 113-as számú mellékút, azon érhető el Vác (a 2106-os út) és Vácrátót (a 2104-es út) felől is. Vasútvonal nem érinti, a legközelebbi vasúti csatlakozási lehetőséget a  és az  Vácrátót vasútállomása kínálja, a község legdélebbi házaitól alig több mint fél kilométerre.

Története

Vácduka Árpád-kori település. Nevét (Duka formában) 1295-ben említették először, ekkor adta el a Záh nemzetségbeli Zaah fia Mihály az itteni birtokát a Rátót nemzetséghez tartozó István fia Kokas mesternek, hatvan márkáért.

1332-1337 között neve szerepelt a pápai tizedjegyzékben is. Ekkor a váci egyházmegye szolnoki főesperességi kerületéhez tartozott, melynek "Tuca" nevű plébániáját egyes történészek Dukával azonosítják.

1334-ben Péter fia László  dukai birtokrészét leányának adta azzal, hogy az elzálogosított birtokrészt is kiváltja. A török hódoltság alatt a defterben – 1559-ben – Dutka  néven 9 házzal adózott, majd 1627-1628-ban Alsó-Duka  10, Felső-Duka  pedig 4 ház után adózott a budai szandzsákban. Ugyanakkor a püspöki tizedjegyzékből hiányzik, illetve csak Pongrácz  püspök 1676. évi tized árenda jegyzékében található: Duka, mely Csörög közelében a Duna lábánál Vác fölött van, elhagyott. Így pusztulását a hosszú hadjárat rovására kell írni, ha később volt is néha néhány lakosa.

Az 1728. évi országos összeírás azt jegyzi meg, hogy egy éve kezdett benépesedni svábokkal, akik azonban majdnem mind koldusok. Később a szlovák betelepülők megváltoztatták nemzetiségi jellegét, és az 1773. évi lexikonban már "slavica", akik azonban teljesen elmagyarosodtak.

1736-ig a Grassalkovich család birtokolta, majd eladták Rudnyánszky Józsefnek.
A település 1789-ből való pecsétnyomója a 20. század elején még ismert volt.

1848-ban Forray Andrásnéhoz (született Brunszvik Júlia) került a birtok, majd a 19. század végén Latinovits Albinhoz. 1945-ig a Serényi családhoz tartozott.

A 20. század elején Pest-Pilis-Solt-Kiskun vármegye Váci járásához tartozott.
1910-ben 647 lakosából 614 magyar, 32 szlovák volt. Ebből 617 római katolikus, 7 református, 17 evangélikus volt.

Templomának története
Jelenlegi temploma a Canonica Visitatio szerint 1738-ban vagy 1739-ben épült. Építtetője Rudnyánszky József földesúr. 1825-ben renoválták, 2005-2006-ban EU-támogatással, helyi vállalkozók segítségével ismét felújították.

Nevezetességei
 Barokk templom: egyhajós középtornyos barokk műemlék templom boltozott szentéllyel, két haranggal.
Védőszentjét, Szent Annát ábrázoló főoltárképe 18. századi kvalitásos művészi alkotás. A templom cibóriuma rokokó munka. Kiváló művészi alkotású úrmutatója és kelyhe szintén a 18. századból származik. A szentélytől jobbra Rudnyánszky Natalis klasszicista síremléke látható.

 Kastély (kúria): 18. században épült, barokk eredetű, majd klasszicista stílusban átépített U-alaprajzú kúria.
1856-tól itt élt Brunszvik Teréz, az első magyarországi óvodák alapítója. 1957-től nevelőotthon, 2004-ben magántulajdonba kerülve felújították.

Storia

2005–2008: Formazione e primo album: Say No to the World
Il cantante e chitarrista Steven Battelle assieme al batterista Mark Gibson formano i LostAlone con il bassista Tom Kitchen nel 2005; quindi Battelle e Gibson creano una propria etichetta, la Scorpia, per promuovere il loro progetto e gestire produzione e distribuzione dei loro cd.
L'album di debutto della band, Say No to the World, è uscito l'11 marzo 2007, anticipato dai singoli "Blood is Sharp", "Unleash the Sands of All Time" e seguito da "Elysium".

2009–2013: I'm a UFO in This City
Nel dicembre 2009 i LostAlone firmano un contratto con l'etichetta statunitense Sire Records e a maggio del 2010 registrano con i produttori 'Jacknife Lee' (Weezer, U2, R.E.M.) e Greg Wells (Mika, Deftones, Katy Perry), il seguito di "Say no to the world". Il produttore esecutivo è Gerard Way dei My Chemical Romance, mentre ingegnere del suono sono 'Alan Moulder' (The Smashing Pumpkins, Nine Inch Nails, Foo Fighters) e 'Mark Needham' (The Killers, Fleetwood Mac, My Chemical Romance).
I'm a UFO in This City esce il 5 marzo 2012 anticipato dal free download di "Paradox on Earth".
Il primo singolo ufficiale è "Do You Get What You Pray For?" (26 settembre 2011), a cui seguono "Love Will Eat You Alive" (1º aprile 2012), in rotazione anche su Virgin Radio Italy e "Paradox on Earth" (10 giugno 2012).
Il 14 settembre 2012 viene divulgato anche il video di 'Vesuvius', sempre estratto da 'I'm a UFO in This City'.

La rivista kerrang!, nel numero pubblicato il 4 luglio 2012, ha nominato Steven Battelle tra le 50 più grandi rockstar di oggi.

Nel luglio 2012 dal sito ufficiale della band e dalla pagina ufficiale di Facebook viene diffusa gratuitamente una canzone inedita: 'Everybody dies but the world's still turning'.
