Imprimis concluded his 2020 campaign with a nightmare journey in the Nov. 7 Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint (G1) at Keeneland, where he was `stymied' and `steadied' in the 5 ½-furlong dash, according to the Equibase chart caller. The veteran star turf sprinter was shut off while making a move between horses, forcing jockey Irad Ortiz Jr. to sharply steady his mount during the stretch run.
"He got shut off for no reason. He was up in there and going. The horse was just starting to run," trainer Joe Orseno said. "It was tough. It takes a lot to get him to where he is and peak like that and keep him like that. It wasn't like I had three or four in that day. I had one in and that was my best shot. He was the best horse but unfortunately the best horse didn't win. It was just a shame for all the connections. It was like a kick in the gut."
Imprimis' 2020 season started off with some bad luck as well. The 6-year-old gelding came off a long layoff to prevail by 2 ¼ lengths in the Sept. 6 Troy (G3) at Saratoga, only to be disqualified through a controversial ruling by the stewards.
The son of Broken Vow came right back to tune up for the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint with a late-running victory in the $700,000 Kentucky Downs Turf Sprint (G3).
Imprimis has had nothing but good luck at Gulfstream, where he has been victorious in all four starts, including three victories in a row to launch his career. He came back the following year to capture the Silks Run.
"We were talking about waiting until the Gulfstream Turf Sprint Feb. 12, but he's doing so well," Orseno said.
Ortiz has the return call on the Florida-bred gelding.
Start Earning the Best Daily Rewards in Horse Racing
DARRS Inc.'s Extravagant Kid, who finished fourth while avoiding trouble in the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint, is scheduled to defend his title in the Janus. The Brendan Walsh-trained 8-year-old gelding, who fell just a length short at Keeneland last start, defeated two next-out winners in last year's Janus and followed that score up with a victory in the Sunshine Millions Turf Sprint at Gulfstream.
Tyler Gaffalione, who was aboard for both victories, has the mount aboard the Florida-bred son of Kiss the Kid.
Blind Ambition, Fully Loaded, Harry's Ontheloose, Sayyaaf and The Critical Way round out the main body of the field. Edgemont Road and Frosted Grace are main-track-only entrants.

As of Saturday 22 September, the Mongui Maduro library located at Landgoed Rooi Catootje will extend its opening hours. Apart from its regular opening hours this library is now also open on every third Saturday of the Month from 9 am to 12 noon.
The Mongui Maduro library is a special library located at a historic location. A special feature of the library is its extensive collection of documents on Jewish history (Judaica) and Curacao history (Antilliana). The collection not only consists of books, but also includes programs of events, invitations, menus and other daily items from the recent and lesser recent past. The basis for the collection was a collection built by the well-known businessman Solomon Abraham Levy (Mongui) Maduro (1891-1967).
Under the inspiring leadership of Mongui's daughter Ena Dankmeijer-Maduro (1920-2016) Mongui's collection was developed into a professional library with a wealth of documents for researchers and other interested parties. Not only the collection is special but also the accommodation of the Mongui Maduro library, since 2010 located in a state of the art pavilion on the estate Rooi Catootje is very special.
To give more interested persons the chance to discover its hidden treasures as of September 22th the Library will open her doors to the public on each third Saturday of the Month.

Fox's Megyn Kelly Says That Benghazi Film Could "Pose A Threat To" Hillary Clinton's Campaign
Kelly: The New Benghazi Movie "Cannot Be Helpful To Mrs. Clinton"
Written by Media Matters Staff
Published 01/04/16 10:14 PM EST
From the January 4 edition of Fox News' The Kelly File:
MEGYN KELLY (HOST): Breaking tonight. A Kelly File exclusive on the gripping new film that may pose a threat to Hillary Clinton's hopes for the White House. Welcome to The Kelly File, everyone. I'm Megyn Kelly. Many insisted after her most recent testimony on Benghazi that this issue was over. Her defenders pronounced it is officially time to move on. That the terrorist attack that took place in Libya on September 11, 2012, which the administration argued was about an internet video offensive to Muslims, was neither Mrs. Clinton's fault nor misrepresented by her.
But a major motion picture about to be released by Paramount Pictures, "13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi," makes it very clear that Benghazi was a preplanned terrorist attack. The film is introduced as a true story and reintroduces Benghazi as a potential campaign issue that cannot be helpful to Mrs. Clinton. The film is told through the eyes of the men who were there. Three of whom are with us tonight. The real-life heroes on the ground in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. They helped director Michael Bay craft a gripping film that captures the fierce fight to protect dozens of Americans and the desperate calls for help that went unanswered by President Obama's administration, including Hillary Clinton's state department.

There's always room for ice cream, right! That's the rule we've always gone by in our home and especially when it's the hand held variety! Crunchy crust, chocolatey ganache, yummy ice cream…filling! We're all about enjoying our favorite plantain strips from Artisan Tropic in inventive and new ways, so why not as the crust and crunchy topping for our new and tasty ice cream crunch bars!
Plantains are naturally sweet so they're perfect combined with some buttery macadamia nuts and little bits of chocolate, oh my goodness what a flavor and texture adventure! Paired with your favorite paleo ice cream (or not, you do you and use whatever ice cream works for you) these tasty bites are rich and delicious! They come together pretty easily and can be made DAYS in advance of your next family gathering. Like let's say, Labor Day…that is somehow already upon us? How in the world does it arrive sooner every Summer? Makes our hearts hurt a bit over here. We are such warm weather fans! However, we'll be making ice cream treats like this no matter the temperature outside! Enjoy!!!
Prepare an 8″ x 8″ cake pan by rubbing a little bit of coconut oil on it, then lining with parchment paper, set aside.
Place plantain chips in a food processor and pulse a few times until they are roughly crushed. Pour into a large bowl, add macadamia nuts and chopped chocolate chips. Stir to combine and set aside. You should have approximately 3½ cups.
Melt coconut oil, add vanilla and maple sugar and stir to combine. Pour over plantain mixture and mix with a rubber until well combined.
Spoon 2½ cups of mixture into the prepared pan, press carefully into the bottom creating an even layer covering the entire surface. Place in freezer to set up while you make ganache, if using.
To make ganache, warm milk slightly in a small saucepan. Remove from heat and add chocolate chips, stir until all chips are melted. Remove crust from freezer and pour ganache on top and using a spatula smooth to cover the entire bottom. Return to freezer so ganache can set up.
Remove ice cream from freezer to soften. You'll want a thick frosting like consistency so you can smooth it out over the crust (or ganache if using.) Spoon into pan and smooth out over the bottom.
Sprinkle remaining 1½ cups of plantain mixture on top and press into the ice cream. Return to freezer to so ice cream can firm back up. Wait at least a couple hours or even overnight.
When ready to serve, remove from freezer and lift out of the pan with parchment paper. Allow a few minutes for ice cream to soften and then cut into desired size servings.
Looks amazing! I don't see coconut oil, vanilla and maple sugar in the ingredient list…?

Q: r-value causes a warning without the use of std::move Can someone help me to understand why the following code causes a warning
struct A
{
  A() : _a( 0 ) {}

  const int& _a;
};

int main()
{
  A a;
}

with warning
warning: binding reference member '_a' to a temporary value [-Wdangling-field]
      A() : _a( 0 ) {}

but this code, where std::move is used to initialize the member _a, does not:
struct A
{
  A() : _a( std::move(0) ) {}

  const int& _a;
};

int main()
{
  A a;
}

Aren't 0 and std::move( 0 ) both r-values?

A: This is an expression:
0

It's a very small expression, true. But it is an expression.
Once the expression is evaluated, it goes away. It disappears. Joins the choir invisible. Goes to meet its maker. It becomes an ex-expression.
It is true that binding a const reference to a temporary extends the scope of the temporary value until the end of the enclosing scope.
But in this case, the scope of the expression is the constructor. When the constructor is done, the temporary value gets destroyed.
Your compiler noticed the fact that a const reference to the expression still continues to exist, though, as a class member. Your compiler is advising you that using the class member will now result in undefined behavior. Your compiler wants to be your friend. Your compiler doesn't want you to write buggy code, so you're getting some free, friendly advice, from your compiler.
In the other case, you have added some additional code which is slightly more complicated. It is still undefined behavior, but the code is now complex enough that the compiler cannot see that undefined behavior results. But it's still the same bug.
A compiler will try to warn you of potential problems, when the compiler sees them. Unfortunately, the compiler cannot find all possible potential problems, every time. But, when it's obvious, the compiler will let you know.

A: Their return values are not exactly the same.
From cppreference.com

In particular, std::move produces an xvalue expression that identifies
  its argument t. It is exactly equivalent to a static_cast to an rvalue
reference type.

Now, looking at rvalue references, we see that object "0" in second example can live longer:

An rvalue may be used to initialize an rvalue reference, in which case
  the lifetime of the object identified by the rvalue is extended until
  the scope of the reference ends.

Such reference (rvalue reference) is afterwards assigned to the class member _a, which is allowed, so you are having no error.
Moreover, rvalue reference to a temporary can be used in a move constructor, so if the member you are initialising has it, I don't see the problem. However, in C++ you can never know when undefined behaviour can suddenly hit you :)

Sevilleja de la Jara es un municipio español de la provincia de Toledo, en la comunidad autónoma de Castilla-La Mancha.

Toponimia
El grupo de mozárabes que fundaron esta localidad le dieron el nombre de "Sevilleja", que es un diminutivo-despectivo de "Sevilla", en recuerdo de su ciudad de origen.

Geografía
Integrado en la comarca de La Jara, se sitúa a 127 kilómetros de la capital provincial. El término municipal está atravesado por la carretera nacional N-502, entre los pK 169 y 189, por la carretera autonómica CM-4106, que se dirige hacia Anchuras, y por dos carreteras locales que permiten la comunicación con El Campillo de la Jara.

El relieve del municipio es montañoso por el noreste (Sierra de Sevilleja) y por el suroeste (Sierra de Altamira),  ambas pertenecientes a los Montes de Toledo. La zona central es más llana, por donde discurren algunos ríos y arroyos. Los picos más destacados son Cumbre Alta (1273 metros) y Collado de Riofrío (1143 metros), situados en la Sierra de Sevilleja. La vegetación en la zona son pinares, encinas, alcornoques, jarales y monte bajo. La altitud oscila entre los 1273 metros (Cumbre Alta) y los 530 metros al noroeste, a orillas del río Uso. El pueblo se alza a 665 metros sobre el nivel del mar .

Historia
Huyendo los mozárabes andaluces de la persecución de los almorávides, un grupo de aquellos, al frente del cual venía Clemente, obispo electo de Sevilla, llegaron en el primer tercio del siglo Xlll a Talavera de la Reina y desde allí marcharon a un lugar de La Jara, antiguo emplazamiento Vetón, donde levantaron sus viviendas originando así el nuevo lugar de Sevilleja.

El barrio del Torilejo fue el primer asentamiento, siendo las principales actividades el colmeneo y la cría de ganado vacuno.

Ya en el siglo XIV se citan en el Libro de la Montería de Alfonso XI parajes donde se da la caza mayor -osos y jabalíes entre otros- dentro del término municipal. Aparte de la caza, el corte de leña, el carboneo y las colmenas son las principales explotaciones que se realizan en estas tierras. Durante estos años Sevilleja y sus alquerías pertenecen a la jurisdicción de Talavera que a su vez pertenece al señorío de los arzobispos de Toledo. Su situación fronteriza con otros señoríos hace que existan frecuentes ataques e invasiones de estos.

La orden militar de Alcántara se había apoderado de algunos pueblos, propiedad de los arzobispos de Toledo en la jurisdicción de Talavera y su Tierra, como natural consecuencia de las luchas civiles castellanas; por eso en 1455, se da poder por el arzobispo de Toledo, don Alonso Carrillo, para que se recuperen esos pueblos, entre ellos Sevilleja, Gargantilla, Río Frío y Cordobilla.

A finales del siglo XVI Sevilleja y sus pueblos dependientes suman unas 100 familias, con 400 habitantes. La caza y la ganadería siguen siendo su principal fuente de sustento. En esta época es probable que se construyera la actual Iglesia de Sevilleja. Durante el siglo XVII aumenta la población, acercándose a los 550 habitantes.

Desde su fundación hasta la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII es la capital administrativa de un gran municipio que ocupaba gran parte de la comarca de la Jara, incluyendo los actuales municipios de La Nava del Ricomalillo, Robledo del Mazo y Anchuras de los Montes (Ciudad Real). Durante este siglo se produce un fuerte proceso de colonización interior, lo que hace aparecer nuevas alquerías y que se segreguen del término municipal las ya mencionadas.

A finales de este siglo la población del término supera los 1600 habitantes. Las actividades económicas siguen siendo las tradicionales caza, colmeneo, ganadería y una agricultura muy laboriosa, debido a la escasa fertilidad de la tierra. Abundan los molinos harineros, sobre todo en río Frío y se explotan varias minas de diversos metales dentro de su territorio. Ya en estos años ya se menciona la Ermita del Santísimo Cristo Arrodillado o Nazareno.

El siglo XIX comienza con la Guerra de la Independencia, siendo esta zona saqueada varias veces por el ejército francés a pesar de encontrar duro enfrentamiento en montes y escarpados de la zona, donde se "echaban al monte" para formar guerrillas contra el ejército francés, cortando suministros y emboscando pequeños destacamentos.
También cabe remarcar la presencia de una imagen popular en los montes castellano-extremeños, el bandolero, que tuvo gran presencia en la zona, aunque los cantares y las historias populares los recuerdan como personajes que roban al rico y ofrecen al pobre. Aparecen así historias de bandoleros como Garvín o Murrieta.
Después, las Guerras Carlistas también hacen mella en esta zona, siendo refugio y zona de abastecimiento de varias partidas carlistas y liberales.
De nuevo los patriotas se echaron al monte aprendiendo nuevamente a vivir de él y presentando batalla. Josefina utilizó el bandolerismo para desacreditar entonces a los patriotas de la zona.

Desde 1814 y hasta después de la primera carlista no conocemos una actividad permanente y destacada en la comarca. Los pueblos del interior continuaron sumidos en el abandono y con una economía de subsistencia. Las tentativas de reactivación económica iniciadas por algunos liberales no condujeron a nada positivo.
A iniciativa de los grandes y pequeños ganaderos se presentó en octubre de 1834 un proyecto de ley para disolver las hermandades viejas de Toledo, Talavera y Ciudad Real, suprimir el derecho de asadura mayor y menor (impuesto sobre el tránsito ganadero que permite su autofinanciación y su pervivencia como tribunales especiales de justicia rural durante más de cinco centurias) y dar utilidad pública a sus establecimientos. Algunos de los últimos cuadrilleros ocuparon cargos en la Sociedad Económica de Amigos del País en Toledo. Por causas suficientemente conocidas surgen las guerras carlistas o civiles y en ellas tienen su origen gran parte de la actividad bandolera en los Montes que se desarrollará hasta finalizado el s. XIX, cuya casuística evolucionó con los intereses colectivos e individuales de las partidas. Avanzada la guerra, las tropas carlistas, más reducidas, recurrieron a la guerra en guerrillas formando grupos de una docena de hombres aproximadamente llamados "gavillas objetivos de merodeo y acoso de las comarcas.

En 1835 capitaneaba las partidas carlistas que operaban en los Montes, el Coronel D. Cándido López, asistido por sus segundos la Diosa, Galán, Perfecto y Mariano Peco. El ejército realista o cristino era mandado por el exguerrillero toledano Paralea, buen conocedor de este tipo de acciones. La derrota de Los Yébenes infligida a los carlistas de Jara por el brigadier Flinter el 19 de febrero de 1838 supuso la muerte de 500 carlistas, 300 heridos y 2.600 prisioneros (B.O.P 9-VI- 1838) de los cuales 396 eran de los Montes y Jara naturales de Sevilleja de la Jara, San Martín de Montalbán, Cuerva, Navahermosa, San Pablo, Ventas con Peña Aguilera, los Alares, Casasbuenas, Aldeanueva de Barbarroya, Mohedas de la Jara, Nava de Ricomalillo, Navalmoralejo, Campillo de la Jara, Anchuras y Aldeanueva de San Bartolomé. Todos fueron indultados. Sus edades oscilaban entre los 17 y 21 años.
Otros veinte indultados en el mismo año por abandonar las partidas carlistas, eran en su totalidad jornaleros con edades inferiores a los 30 años, solteros, que habían estado encuadrados en las partidas de Palillos, Gil, Jara, Melitón y Lago. Estos perdones no se cumplieron en algunas ocasiones, dando lugar al retorno a la facción con los resentimientos oportunos, convirtiendo a los individuos en más peligrosos y sanguinarios. A medida que avanza el conflicto la ideología de muchas facciones carlistas se transfiere a un segundo orden y la relación de ejército regular desaparece dando paso a la partida que apoyándose en la lucha. busca el botín, independiente de las órdenes que pueda recibir.

La situación de alarma permanente en la comarca lo evidencian los ataques que sufren algunas poblaciones siendo especialmente graves los dos asaltos a Navahermosa realizados por las partidas de Jara, Peco y Tercero. Parecidos episodios sufrieron en Gálvez, Belvís de la Jara, Puebla de Montalbán, La Estrella, San Pablo de los Montes, Las Navillas y Orgaz, que nos muestra una situación de inseguridad y angustia dada la crueldad con la que se condujeron las facciones en muchas de las tristes jornadas que protagonizaron.

El 13 de noviembre de 1839 se levantó el estado de sitio en la provincia, la paz solo fue en el papel para la comarca de los Montes que continuó infestada de partidas "facciosas" mostrando su verdadera faz sin posibilidad de disfraces políticos. Entre los montes quedaron 'los Palillos 'el Valenciano', el Mestizo, Tripacana, Carnicero, Mariano Ruiz 'el Pichapelá', Francisco del Moral, Pata de Porra, estos dos últimos fusilados en Toledo. La guerra teóricamente estaba concluida y los carlistas pudieron acogerse al indulto decretado o salir del país, pero aquellos que no habían hecho otra guerra que la suya, optaron por quedarse en las sierras continuando la vida a la que se habían adaptado. Por los años cuarenta continuaba Rito Flores al mando de la partida 'Palillos' merodeando por los Montes.

La agricultura y la ganadería, junto a la caza, siguen siendo las principales fuentes de subsistencia. Queda en funcionamiento alguno de los molinos harineros y los caminos están prácticamente abandonados e intransitables. Durante estos años la difícil situación que se estaba produciendo en Portugal hace que algunos portugueses se asienten en Sevilleja y sus alrededores.
En 1846 se crea la primera Comisión de Instrucción Pública en Sevilleja que hace aumentar de manera notable el número de personas que aprenden a leer y escribir.

Durante el siglo XX se produjo un importante aumento de la población, que baja de nuevo hacia 1940 por la Guerra Civil, que tuvo uno de sus frentes en esta comarca.

En 1950 se alcanzan los 3374 habitantes; a partir de aquí se produce un importante proceso migratorio hacia las grandes ciudades, haciendo que hacia finales de este siglo la población ronde los 1100 habitantes.

Economía
La principal riqueza de Sevilleja de la Jara es la actividad cinegética. Aquí se encuentre el primer Coto Social de España.

A la entrada al municipio, a menos de un kilómetro se encuentran las instalaciones del Servicio Nacional de Pesca Continental, Caza y Parques nacionales, entidad que gestionará y canalizará la puesta en marcha de este gran coto de caza menor que ocupa una superficie de más de 30.000 hectáreas, comprendidos los términos municipales de Sevilleja y Anchuras, en las provincias de Toledo y Ciudad Real, respectivamente. Además de estos pueblos, el coto alberga las aldeas de Buenasbodas, Gargantilla, Minas de Santa Quiteria y Puerto Rey, éste ya en el límite con la provincia de Cáceres. Dada su gran extensión, el coto solamente puede conocerse haciendo el recorrido en automóvil. Aunque los caminos son de tierra, la circulación no entraña ningún riesgo. El paisaje es con montes chatos que rompen la línea de horizonte e impiden divisar cualquier núcleo de población. El pantano del Cíjara es el límite natural del coto, adentrado ya en la provincia cacereña. Por estas tierras no solo se encuentra la perdiz, sino también el venado y el jabalí. El acceso a los permisos de caza en el coto, se consiguen por sorteo según haya sido la cría en el año y la necesidad del control cinegético de la zona.
Al Coto Social de Sevilleja de la Jara y Anchuras tendrán acceso pues, según prescribe la nueva Ley de Caza, todos los cazadores españoles con arreglo a los sorteos y precios que se establecerán en el oportuno plan anual de aprovechamientos. Los permisos oportunos podrán conseguirse en las oficinas provinciales del Servicio o bien dentro de los municipios de Sevilleja y Anchuras, donde se encuentran los controles de vigilancia y mantenimiento de los cotos.

Ambati Rayudu says goodbye to longer version
By Precious Kashmir on 05/11/2018 Comments Off on Ambati Rayudu says goodbye to longer version
The 33-year-old Rayudu is one of the key members of the Indian ODI side but has never played Test cricket.
In a surprise development, India player Ambati Rayudu has decided to retire from the longer version of the game including Ranji Trophy.
In a communication to the Hyderabad Cricket Association on Saturday, the 33-year-old Rayudu informed that he wanted to focus more on limited-over cricket and the T20 format.
"I will continue to play international and domestic matches of shorter versions. And, I take this opportunity to thank the BCCI, HCA, Baroda Cricket Association and also Vidarbha Cricket Association for giving me the opportunities over the years," he said in the letter on his return after what has been a very successful ODI series against the West Indies recently.
Expresses gratitude
For the record, Rayudu played 97 First Class games scoring 6151 runs including 16 centuries and 34 fifties averaging 45.56.
"It has always been an honour to play for Hyderabad and I can never forget the kind of support I got from all those here including my fellow-players, coaches and the officials.
And, especially, the way I was welcomed back into the BCCI fold after the stint in the rebel ICL," he said.
This has come as a huge surprise to the cricketing circles as Rayudu is expected to join Hyderabad for its second match of the Ranji season against Tamil Nadu next week, having missed the opener against Kerala as he was national duty.

The Capital Area Council of Governments recognized Phill Parmer, of Llano, with its first volunteer service award on Dec. 10. Parmer, 94, is the longest serving Area Agency on Aging of the Capital Area volunteer.
He has dedicated more than 19 years to assisting with the care of older adults throughout CAPCOG's 10-county region. Since 1995, Parmer has participated as a CAPCOG Aging Advisory Committee member. He served as a past committee chair and held every position on the board. He has conducted numerous focus groups in Llano County to help identify and strategize to meet those needs of seniors in the capital region.
Palmer has dedicated an enormous amount of time on the aging evaluation committee by visiting senior centers and nutrition meal sites to conduct contract on-site monitoring each year. Annually, he also assisted scoring applications from outside entities to provide home delivered and congregate meal programs.
In 1996, Parmer became a Certified Ombudsman. As a volunteer ombudsman, he has visited and advocated for seniors and their families monthly and weekly by visiting nursing homes and assisted-living centers in Llano and surrounding cities. He continues to be an active ombudsman but resigned from the Aging Advisory Committee earlier this year because of health reasons.
Parmer also was elected to the Texas Silver Haired Legislature from 1992-1996, where he advocated and spearheaded legislative initiatives related to senior issues.
Phill Parmer, 94 of Llano, accepts the CAPCOG Volunteer Service Award from Llano County Judge and CAPCOG Executive Committee Chairman Wayne Brascom during CAPCOG's Dec. 10 General Assembly Meeting.

Bluestem was really disciplined about keeping their word. They said they would deliver something in this amount of time, and they were really serious about that. And, at the same time, they did not sacrifice any quality in order to meet their timeline. They were really disciplined, and they had very high-quality workmanship, and they used high quality products.
I have been recommending this company [Bluestem] to everyone I know. They were so communicative, responsible and great problem solvers. All the staff were very personable. They sincerely cared about you and your project and getting it right for you. They stayed on time and budget. They were also flexible when I wanted something added. They knew what your goals were and remembered them. They kept their eye on the ball that you described. It was so nice not to have to worry about someone ghosting you or dropping the ball like is usual in this industry. – Sue, Minneapolis
Sue, Minneapolis
"A fun project from start to finish...."
It was a fun project from start to finish. Great to see what was on paper come to life.
I always knew when someone was coming … there were no surprises.
Susan, Minneapolis
"More space than we know what to do with...."
One of the problems with the original design was the lack of storage. We love to cook, and have lots of pots and pans – lots of baking things. We found ourselves storing all of our cooking equipment all throughout the house. Very depressing. If we wanted to cook we would go scrambling around trying to find all our pots and pans. Bluestem helped us work with the space that we had and made it more efficient. We actually now have more space than we know what to do with. And they added some really nice features.
I felt I could see their creative juices flowing while I talked to them about what I was hoping to see. I liked their enthusiasm, and their excitement about finding a hidden gem in our decrepit old kitchen.
"Finished Product..."
We have definitely enjoyed the finished product a lot.
Amanda, Golden Valley
"Made It Very Easy To Make All Those Decisions..."
Tim and his team made it very easy to make all those decisions, even to what size and shape and color of knobs I wanted on my kitchen cabinets. So that made the process for me very easy.
Carol, St. Louis Park
"We Felt a Good Chemistry With You Guys..."
We felt great that [the design team] had really thought through our project and we felt a good kind of chemistry with you guys. We liked everyone [on the team]. I think that's really important.
You guys actually came with two or three different possibilities. You…could help us make decisions. We really liked the way you had an expert for everything. You guys made it work.
Don, Maple Grove
"Having That Financial Piece Allowed Me To Make Sure That I Was Staying Within My Budget..."
There were times I had to make decisions, and because that financial piece was there, I could make sure I was making decisions that were staying in my budget. Having that financial piece allowed me to make sure that I was staying within my budget.
"The Process Was Very Well-Defined..."
The process was very well-defined. I think your design options were really solid.
James, Minneapolis
"Really Impressed Me..."
The process really impressed me.
Trish, St. Paul
You guys were right there. Right with us. But never forced, which was… sometimes you get into that sales pitch if you are buying a car, or whatever. You guys were not that way. That was appreciated.
Dave and Kelly, Minnetonka
"The Process Was Very Easy..."
[The process] was easy. Very easy. It worked out very smoothly for both of us.
Cheryl Moore, St. Louis Park
I really felt that the team really listened to me, and because I had certain ideas that I knew I wanted, helped me to sometimes think outside the box. And I have to say, I just feel very comfortable with all the decisions that were made to give me a space that I'm proud of.
[The remodeling process was] extremely organized. Just overall, very organized, very organized.
Especially what I hear from other peoples' experiences… they have not had the same experience we have had.
Never doing this before, that was really nice for us.
Communication was excellent. Excellent.
I got an email update every day about what they did during the day and what they were going to do with the next day and what time they would be here. Then with their Thursday meetings, I would get a synopsis or a summary in email.
And then also you have the message board, so that emails could be sent back and forth to ask questions and resolve issues.
Cheryl, St. Louis Park
"The Communication Was Very Open, Prompt and Quick..."
The online portal was a way where, if Bluestem had a question for us, or we had a question for them, there was a way for us to communicate that.
Whoever needed to answer the question could answer the question. It was always a very quick turnaround. The communication was very open, prompt and quick.
"Recommend..."
"I will fully recommended you."
"You Guys Had a Really Good Team..."
The thing I liked about Bluestem was that I felt you guys had a really good team. To be honest, it was probably the key reason why we went with Bluestem. I felt like you all were a good, close team that communicated and we weren't going to get blindsided. And you were honest, too. I felt like we were confident that it was going to go through the way we wanted it to go through.
Scott & Kristi, Wayzata
I really enjoyed the fact they [Bluestem] have a portal which allowed for myself and my son and his wife to really feel like we were a part of the team and that we could keep track of things. It gave us the ability to really be able to stay within my budget.
Dave, Eden Prairie
I love working with the team – professionally, personally, and it's so clear that that is what you have. And yes, I am using the word respect a lot, but it is something that is so important to me that people treat each other well.
Cheryl Moore
The team and the workers were fabulous. People were so courteous, kind, helpful…it was great. I mean, they were just always just so courteous and kind to us. [It was] never uncomfortable. We felt very comfortable having people in our home when we weren't here.
I love my final product. I am so excited about this. I cannot even remember what the kitchen was like before, because this kitchen works. [It's] perfectly me. The final product is amazing.
[Bluestem was] very honest with us about what was happening from the beginning. They gave us an estimate they felt was fair and they still came in under that estimate for the repairs and fixing all of that. I mean, again, that just shows integrity and not trying to take advantage of us but trying to make us happy.
You were so deliberate about everything. You structured everything. It was very clear we were not going to have to worry… It worked out really great because you guys had that whole process where you did listen."
"I Loved The Client Portal..."
I loved the client portal – the transparency around cost and options. I loved knowing that we would have those options and that control. It was very clear – 'this is what it costs'. We had clear information all of the time, at the ready.
Honestly, we were kind of just overwhelmed about where to start.
You guys held our hands through the whole process. You gave us choices…the process was very, very smooth for us.
Trish, Eden Prairie
"The Communication Was Excellent..."
You guys are great to work with. The communication was excellent. Communication was very, very good. We were always at ease. We always felt we knew exactly what was happening next.
"Open To Our Ideas and Flexible..."
Bluestem was open to our ideas and flexible with minor design adjustments during the build process.
Dennis, Minneapolis
From beginning to end, we felt a part of the process and a partner in it. …It's really the focal point of our home and has transformed the way that we live here.
Teresa, Edina
They [the production staff] were so lovely and so welcoming in times when they did not need to be welcoming us. I mean they were just awesome, from top to bottom.
Teresa, Eden Prairie
Dave and Meghan, Minneapolis
You will get what you pay for.
We paid for a really great experience, and we had got a
really great experience.
Knowing that I was going to have help in designing helped alleviate the anxiety of 'will this turn out as nice as I want it to'. The help proved to be invaluable because I would've been scared to make certain choices without support and backup.
David, Eden Prairie
It was fun! The selection of materials and stuff…the palette, and putting it all together. We have definitely enjoyed the finished product a lot.
You treat people how you want to be treated. And I very much had the sense that there is that kind of working relationship and it was clear at every level. I really felt like it was a team and there was clear direction, accountability, and follow-through.
I have loved this process. I tell people all the time, what a wonderful job you guys did for us. And I really, truly heartfelt mean that, because this could have been a very difficult process and you guys just made it unbelievable and gave me a space that I am proud of and comfortable in and has just added to the quality of my life.
They stuck to their timeline. It was really important to them to stick to their timeline, and that – I do not think I have seen with other contracting projects that we have done before. And, they did not sacrifice quality in the name of sticking to their timeline, either. They wanted to make sure they brought you best product.
"Communication..."
I just loved the level of communication.
The online management system was a wonderful way to make sure that communications were clear and that we had a say over all costs. I have spoken with others who said their projects went 30% over budget and they were amazed when I told them ours did not go a penny over budget. There were no surprises.
Joan L. Minneapolis, MN
"I Wasn't Ever Fearful About Leaving..."
[The field staff are] all super professional and they were super nice. I wasn't ever fearful about leaving. They were so gracious with the dogs and with the kids.
"A beautiful space instead of a basement laundry room....."
Our old laundry room – we remade into a bathroom for the kids. We got the funky tile that we wanted, and lots of storage. It's just well designed…well put together. The shower is amazing. A beautiful space instead of a basement laundry room.
And it's a second bathroom for us, so great. We love it.
Family and friends can't believe what we packed into the small space — a true transformation. With almost no structural changes, the kitchen jumped into modern living with custom cabinetry, thoughtful finishes, and expert details/craftsmanship that resulted in a new kitchen that is tiny, but mighty. Bluestem was on the same page with me every step of the way. If I had to sum up the process and end result, I can truly say that they turned my vision into reality and it was a fun and trusted collaboration from start to finish.
"The Entire Process Was Smooth..."
We were very pleased with our project, the timeliness, the commitment to the bid (no surprises financially), and the demeanor of the staff at Bluestem. The entire process was smooth, and attention to detail was a priority for Bluestem. We received many compliments that the look of the remodel was in keeping with the style of our home.

I just loved the level of communication. I loved co-construct. I really felt like that tool was very useful to me, because if I had a question like, 'why is anybody not showing up at my house today?' I could just look, and it was outlined on there. Also, I could trust you guys. You are very smart.
"Many of my friends thought I was crazy to go to Florida and leave it all up to the team. Well, they are so shocked and happy for me when I told them all was done on time and to perfection. You have one of the best teams in the Twin Cities! Thank you so much for all you did for us on this job."

Copywriting: "How To Find A Copywriting School"
Have you heard good things about field of copywriting? If you have, then you know that a qualified copywriter is an invaluable asset to those looking for them. Becoming this asset means going to a copywriting school. Turn this to your advantage. First, most copywriting schools can be found throughout internet to help you telecommunicate. Second, they are not long, hard degrees to get. Most require attention and willingness to learn. And, in most cases, schooling you need is not going to cost anywhere near costs of those big schools.
As for what you can expect at a copywriting school, there are many different things for you to learn. You'll learn basics including how to write properly, with good content but still meeting requirements given to you. You'll learn how to write for web markets, how to build websites, and language of computer world. You will also learn about advertising and effective marketing. If you think you know it all, you really don't. There are small bits here and there that can make you go from being average to being excellent. This is a quality you must strive for. Of course, there are different techniques and classes you can take for a specialized theme.
"Copywriting Businesses - How Can I Get Started?"
Do you have training and skills needed for copywriting?
Are you looking for a way to get your foot in door?
Will you have what it takes to succeed with your copywriting businesses?
For many, these three questions drive them day in and day out to become person that people demand time with. Still for others, business aspects of copywriting have just been easy to get. Others still have no idea even how to start effective copywriting businesses. Where are you?
First of all, as with any type of business, you need to have training and knowledge needed. Don't fool yourself into thinking you can just wing it. This is not a high school term paper that needs proofed or a college essay you write day before it's due. Copywriting is a business, where people stand to make money from words you place on pages, on ads you help develop, on e-books you write. Having an effective knowledge basis is crucial to success.
From this point, it is a matter of establishing yourself. You will need to get your foot in door somehow. It could be as simple as calling friends that you know have websites, browsing websites that offer opportunities, or even placing ads throughout web showcasing your talents. All it takes is one person to get you moving in right direction. But, when you do get your first client, whether you are freelancing or not, you will need to make it count. Give them best you can, ask them for a reference or to pass your name along.

The Alverstoke Michaelmas Fayre : 24th September 2022
On 25th September the 2021 Michaelmas Fayre beat expectations. The crowds returned to enjoy a record number of stalls plus all the entertainment, music and refreshments. The closure of Green Road added much to the ambience, safety and enjoyment of the Fayre. A wonderful community celebration from which again £20,000 has been raised by local causes and charities. Even in the churchyard over 1300 traditional fete games were played and enjoyed!
Join us in 2022 on Saturday 24th September 2022
between 11.00am to 4.00pm throughout Alverstoke Village.
Michaelmas Fayre Enquiries
To find out more information please send an enquiry to the Secretary and Chairman using the box below.
Enjoy a traffic free Alverstoke village for an afternoon packed with marching bands, 100 plus local organisations with stalls, plenty of food and drink, the village shops at the heart of Alverstoke, music in the church, and so much more. A fabulous community atmosphere makes for a memorable event. The day ends with a packed Community Concert drawing on a whole range of musicians in St.Mary's Church from 7.00-9.00pm concluding with the wholehearted singing of 'Not the Last Night of the Proms'.
Find the Kid's Messy 10 Penny Fun Fete in the churchyard through the afternoon, along with music performed in St.Mary's.
St.Mary's Church is pleased to be a partner with Gosport Rotary Club in hosting the Fair. Some £20,000 or more is estimated to be made by the many community groups and charities which are represented allowing them to invest in their work, volunteering and activities around Gosport. Please come along and offer all the support you can give on such a worthwhile occasion when a community comes together.
For the Fayre Brochure 2021 the Festival Chairman has written:
"Well, here we are back again after last year's cancellation due to the galloping Covid. Let's hope that the weather will do us a favour this year and you will be reading this in the sunshine!
The last event in 2019 saw the Fayre enable local Charities and Community Groups to raise approximately £25,000 for their organisations and, in addition, the Organising Committee made a £1,100 donation to the Mayor of Gosport's Charity Appeal enhanced by a donation from the Big Noise Samba Band.
This year will see all our favourites back, entertainment from The Big Noise Samba Band, The HMS Sultan Volunteer Band, The New Thorngate Singers and the Harry Strutters Jazz Quartet as well as the Walls' Funfair and the Kiddies 10p Messy Fete. There will be around 150 Stalls with some interesting new faces.
Once again the organisational challenge in running an event such as this is undertaken by a committee drawn from the Gosport Rotary Club and St Mary's PCC; on the day of the event the Stewards are found from the Rotary Club and the Friends of Rotary and the members of the PCC. Our thanks go to all of those and also the youngsters from 'Loud and Proud' and the GVA Voluntheroes. To everybody involved we say thank you especially to our Secretary Penny, Mike Wheeler who organises the Grand Draw (don't forget to buy your tickets), Simon Mason and The Rev. Andy Norris.
This being my last year as Chairman of the Committee I wish my successor good luck and good weather for next year."

The Urban Futures Studio has recently published an essay on the potential of the Urban Agenda for the European Union. Suzanne Potjer and Maarten Hajer analyse the three central principles (local, horizontal and vertical) on this new working method, arguing for a comprehensive system of experimental learning that could enable cities to have a significant impact at a European scale.
The Urban Agenda is a new working method to take the social challenges and growth happening in European cities. It aims to promote cooperation between both bottom-up and top-down stakeholders, in order to stimulate liveability and innovation within the urban context.
Urban Futures Studio, a transdisciplinary institute based in Utrecht, published the essay 'Learning with Cities, learning for Cities' as a starting point that will trigger us to think about what can be the crucial steps in the development and implementation of the Urban Agenda for the EU. Starting from an academic perspective on the three principles of the Urban Agenda – the important role of cities (local), the collaboration opportunities (horizontal), and the issue of multi-level governance (vertical), the essay focuses on the importance of experimentation in developing an innovative urban mechanism.

In the late summer of 1968, ABC commissioned eight joint television appearances for the rivals. Four debates took place at the Republican National Convention and four occurred alongside the Democratic Convention. The two men took on all the controversial issues of the day. Both displayed an agile use of language, a wide vocabulary, and quick wit. But it was their second-to-last performance that stole the show. On August 28th on the ABC location set of the DNC, debate turned dirty as Gore Vidal lured Buckley into a state of angst. Tensions were high. Martin Luther King, Jr and Robert Kennedy had been assassinated and Chicago was at war with itself over the conflict in Vietnam. When Buckley defended the violence displayed by police as they thwarted the effectiveness of peaceful protests, Vidal became angry. He resorted to name-calling, labeling Buckley a "Nazi".
Buckley lost his cool. Ranting and flailing, he admonished Gore Vidal in every way he could muster, prompting the mediator to act as referee on national television. The episode went down in history as a low point for public debate. The men's already strained relationship was no longer workable and the high television ratings following the fight created a culture of cheap-shot debating on tv. After the exchange between Buckley and Vidal, television producers realized that conflict increased viewership. So, rather than encourage productive commentary, television stations began cultivating contrasts and they irreversibly lowered the bar for political debate.
The Buckley and Vidal debates were a turning point for American political television. In the footage, viewers can watch the unbelievable heights to which debate masters can soar. The mastery of language and impromptu dialogue are second to none. Viewers will also see the depths to which great thinkers can sink if they don't stay composed during an exchange. Watch clips from the Buckley and Vidal debates here. And to learn more about ethics in debate or scholastic debating, contact us at the Debate League.

Q: Reload variables injected in express template I am building an application with Express that uses the ejs template system. I have a form that contains an input that is built dynamically with the tags variable, in addition, there is a button to add a new Tag, that uses AJAX to do so.
app.ts
app.get('/', async (req: Request, res: Response) => {
  const tags = await TagController.getAllTags();
  res.render('index', { tags });
});

index.ejs
<% tags.forEach((t)=>{ %>
  <div class="tag is-dark">
      <%= t.name %>
  </div>
<% }); %>
<button id="add-tag">Add a new tag!</button>

The problem is that I want this to be added without adding something like location.reload() as the page load is quite large, it worsens the user experience and I should implement a system to manage the state of the form.
I understand that I can do it through Javascript, since I have an endpoint that returns all the tags, but that would lead me to rebuild parts of the interface and stop using the ejs template system.
Is there any way for the injected variable to be reloaded without reloading the page? Or is completely static and the only way to modify it is by the reload?

POMPANO BEACH, FLA. (WSVN) - Dozens of women rolled up their sleeves and got to work on a building blitz in Pompano Beach to help hardworking families reach their dream of homeownership, thanks to Habitat for Humanity of Broward.
Assisted by the future homeowners, about 100 volunteers stepped up to take part in Habitat Love, a Valentine's Day-themed celebration.
The Pompano Beach site will soon be home to 77 houses, a major project for the organization.
Some volunteers are helping in other ways, too.
Meanwhile, Tiesha Duncan is getting to play a part in bringing her future to life.
Sporadic rainfall did not prevent this dedicated group from reaching their goal.
"It means a lot to me to actually be able to own my own home. It means so much to me," said Duncan.
The next Women Build event is going to have a mother/daughter day theme. It's scheduled to be held at the same Pompano Beach location on April 27.

U-79 — німецький підводний човен типу VIIC часів  Другої світової війни.

Замовлення на будівництво човна було віддане 25 січня 1939 року. Човен був закладений на верфі суднобудівної компанії «Bremer Vulkan» у місті Бремен 17 квітня 1940 року під заводським номером 7, спущений на воду 25 січня 1941 року, 13 березня 1941 року увійшов до складу 1-ї флотилії. Також за час служби входив до складу 23-ї флотилії. Єдиним командиром човна був капітан-лейтенант Вольфганг Кауфманн.

Човен зробив 6 бойових походів, в яких потопив 2 (загальна водотоннажність 2 983 брт), пошкодив 1 судно та 1 військовий корабель.

23 грудня 1941 року потоплений у Середземному морі, північніше Соллуму () глибинними бомбами британських есмінців «Гейсті» та «Хотспар». Всі 44 члени екіпажу врятовані.

The study, published in the journal Wildlife Management, claims that such an increase could put the health of the park and its visitors in serious jeopardy—because, among other problems, the monkeys carry a rare and deadly form of herpes virus called herpes B. It's extremely rare for herpes B to spread from a monkey to a human, but when it does, it can cause inflammation of the brain and spinal cord leading to brain damage or death.
Florida's primate problem began in 1938 when a tour boat operator known as 'Colonel Tooey' released six rhesus macaques onto a small island within what is now the state park. He procured the monkeys from a primate dealer in New York City with the intention to create a Tarzan-themed attraction on the island, but his plans quickly unravelled.
Unbeknown to Tooey, rhesus macaques are strong swimmers. Within hours of arriving on the island, the pink-faced monkeys began escaping into the woods. Six more macaques were brought in to replace them, but they escaped as well. By the 1980s, hundreds had spread out across the 5,000-acre park.
Rhesus Macaquesare particularly problematic primates, says anthropologist Erin Riley, who studies human-animal interactions at San Diego State University. "They aren't as afraid of humans as other animals, and they can be pretty nasty," she says.
In 2013, Riley received a grant from the National Geographic Society to investigate how rhesus macaques had adapted to Florida life. She found that, in addition to feeding on ash trees and other native vegetation, the monkeys were occasionally fed by humans. Around one-tenth of the boats that traverse the park via the Silver River illegally offer food to the monkeys, she found. Riley says this type of behaviour habituates the monkeys to humans, a recipe for trouble.
Earlier this year, scientists from the U.S. Centres for Disease Control and Prevention discovered that as many as 30 percent of these monkeys carry herpes B, a rare and highly virulent virus that can be fatal to humans. Only about 50 human cases of herpes B have ever been documented, though as far as we know none of these derived from wild macaques. In 1997, one 22-year-old research assistant died after accidentally getting bodily fluids from one of these monkeys in her eye and contracting the disease.
The odds of catching herpes from a wild rhesus macaque are "really, really low, but the consequence is really, really high—sort of like the lottery," says Steve Johnson, associate professor of wildlife ecology at the University of Florida. Macaques could spread the virus through their urine, saliva, and faeces—the last of which they've been known to throw at humans.

'Just Mercy' & 'Clemency': These New Films Put the Death Penalty on Trial
By Fisher Jack
*(Via LA Times) – One movie's protagonist fights the power; the other wields it. One shows the potential to change the system; the other, the perils in preserving it.
Despite differences in approach and tone, the two new films — "Just Mercy," released Wednesday, and "Clemency," in theaters Friday — share common goals: Directors Destin Daniel Cretton and Chinonye Chukwu, respectively, want audiences rethinking the death penalty and America's prison-industrial complex.
Cretton's "Just Mercy" tells the true story of lawyer Bryan Stevenson (Michael B. Jordan), his founding of the Equal Justice Initiative in Alabama and his battle against bigotry and corruption to save the life of death row inmate Walter McMillan (Jamie Foxx).
JOURNALISTS APOLOGIZE AFTER CATCHING HEAT FOR MOCKING BLUE IVY CARTER'S APPEARANCE
Chukwu's "Clemency" focuses on a prison warden, Bernadine Williams (Alfre Woodard), as she and her guards deal with the emotional fallout of an execution gone wrong even while preparing to kill another inmate, Anthony Woods (Aldis Hodge).

December 18, 2012 – I am not religious, so I choose to ignore that side of Christmas. I think religion segregates us and makes us care more about those who think the same way that we do, giving more to those who share our beliefs isn't kindness, it isn't truly charitable.
Christmas isn't about receiving, it's about giving. It's about sharing. It's about caring. It should be about compassion and companionship, for all, not a select few.
Most of us have too much already, so instead of giving gifts that no one needs, instead of asking for gifts that you don't really need, wouldn't it be great if more people gave to those who have little?
There are so many people out there who can barely get what they need, let alone what they want. Maybe take a moment and think about what you can do to help them.
It doesn't take much to make a difference. Could you give up the cost of a dinner out, or a reasonable bottle of wine? The value of either can make a major difference in someone else's life.
Years ago Mom made us all stop and think about this. She pointed out how excessive Christmas was becoming and that none of us really needed more "stuff" that we don't need. Most of us have what we want and what we want that we don't have, we usually get when we choose. Why agonize over what unnecessary things we should gift to someone who doesn't really need more?
Her solution was a donation to a charity instead of an expensive present. Sure, we all still wrapped something up for each other, but the volume and the value dropped and went somewhere more worthwhile.
We have given to a number of charities over the years. Sometimes we choose far afield, sometimes close to home. Sometimes we give to human causes, sometimes to natural ones, and sometimes we put our money towards animal causes.
If you want to give something in your own community, and know who it went to and why, and get a gift that someone really wants, this is a wonderful site that can direct you to a specific individual – Homeless Partners They connect you to individual homeless people who often want little more than a pair of warm socks or a new pair of jeans. Such simple requests.
When Mom died last month I came across a package of papers. They were letters tucked inside a Plan Canada booklet. Mom gave to foster a child in Paraguay. It struck me that this little girl was going to lose something of great value to her and her family. Through no fault of hers, she had lost her donor. I have a Plan Canada donor number, so I called them up and explained Mom's death and that I knew she sponsored a child. I told them they would have to cancel the debits to Mom's bank account, but asked if it was possible to have the girls sponsorship transferred to me so that she wouldn't be cut off. It's such a simple thing, and it costs so little. The cost of one meal out can help support a child for a month. How could we not?
My wish is that we could all want a little less, and give a little more.
On a side note, today was the final day for the 2012 Cultus sockeye spawning season. I have volunteered my time to the program for the past two seasons and very much enjoy it. When I left home this morning there was a bit of sloppy snow on the road. I glanced at the web cameras in the Valley and they seemed fine. The mistake I made was in not looking at the conditions between home and Chilliwack!
As I drove up our street I turned on the traffic radio to hear that there was a 7 car pileup Southbound on Second Narrows Bridge, a truck flipped Northbound, and three semis stalled on the Cut (the hill down to the bridge).
Pulled a U-turn around the traffic circle and headed over Lion's Gate Bridge. It took me an hour to get to the Port Mann Bridge (should have taken 20 minutes) and it was a blizzard from downtown Vancouver all the way to Surrey. Traffic was snarled in both directions and I was in the fast lane on the freeway travelling at a brisk 15km/hr. Turning back wasn't an option since the traffic in to town was gridlock – even worse than what I was in – and there was an accident at pretty much every single offramp anyway. There was an accident in each direction on the Port Mann, the one on my side had just happened and was so obviously a case of the woman driving too fast, too close, and probably hit her brakes and spun around, taking out the front of her 4runner on the centre barrier. I notice that a large number of accidents down at this end of the Province include a lot of SUVs and light trucks, too many people think they are invincible. The roads were just ice-rinks. I crossed the Port Mann and by Langley there wasn't any evidence of the chaos behind me. Not a flake of snow anywhere, and the road was bare and dry. Usually if it's bad in the city, it's much worse out that way. Strangely it was the opposite. On today's travel, between 7am and 1pm, I hit blizzard-like snow, torrential rain, fog, hail, freezing rain, and even sun. Quite the drive.
Coo! Beautiful photo! LG. Ingrid!
