Almighty God,n HIS over abundance of Love,offers everyone an invitation 2 His Mercy&Grace!Tragically,many don't even "RSVP"!Let alone "show up"!God's Overwhelming Love is proven in the Persistence/Patience/Mercy/Grace of His "Invitation Message"!Jesus talks about this n Matthew22:1-14.A wedding is intended 2 b the celebration of a covenant forged w "Commitment&Love"!A covenant that "creates" a union intended 2 never b separated!The wedding that Jesus is talking about here is THE ONE that God is the "COVENANT KEEPER" of!The significance of this wedding is that it is the MOST JOYOUS of ALL CELEBRATIONS!The ONE that Almighty God conveys HIS LOVE,& the BESTOWING of HIS GLORY on HIS Bride(those that Trust Christ as Savior&Lord).Such a CELEBRATION compels those who "appreciate" the significance of it 2 "get cleaned up"&"dress appropriately"2 attend!God offers the "cleaning up",&"the appropriate clothing" 2 us through Christ alone-His Mercy&Glory bestowed on those that turn to Christ 4 His Saving Mercy&Grace 2 become their "New Identity"!Jesus says that there is man who "shows up",that is not "appropriately dressed"! This man has "answered the invitation" & "showed up"!But,he has not truly honored the significance of the invitation,nor WHO invited him.We do the same thing when we have a "show up" attitude n our lives about Jesus,& don't internalize the significance of what Jesus invites us to,nor appreciate the "dress requirements"! We don't have 2 go out of our way to find the right soap to wash with(legalistic thinking&actions),& the "right things to wear"....,Jesus provides both through His Blood & His Holy Spirit when we truly accept His invitation and commit to follow Him.This is how our lives r "clothed" to identify us as True ATTENDEES of the celebration,and not "imposters"that answered the invitation but did not take to heart what the "INVITER" was offering!These imposters want to be at the celebration,but don't really appreciate "This Celebration" above any others n their lives!To just answer the invitation w a "show up" attitude is an indication of our lack of appreciation for what Jesus alone can & does offer us!N fact,this attitude flowing n&through our life may sadly mean that we could be an imposter!This "insincerity/imposter" n my life needs 2 b checked & dealt w!Jesus offers this Help through His Word & His Spirit...so my life "processes/challenges/experiences",etc.,may all become part of the PREPARATION for my "attendance" to HIS CELEBRATION!Dear Lord Jesus,may my innermost parts know the significance of what YOU have invited me to!And May YOUR WORD & YOUR SPIRIT always b "processing & preparing" me for YOUR GREATEST of all Celebrations.

Trader Joe's stands out for its affordable quality products, great customer service, and sadly also for its packaging. The store lacks a cohesive well designed theme that matches the food and atmosphere of the store. The packaging should match the quality of their products.


The marmalades and jams available from La Despensa de Tenerife are made in an entirely natural, traditional way, with no added preservatives, artificial aromas or colourings ? a fact that makes them high quality products. They are made using fresh fruit and vegetables, picked from farms in the north and south of the island. They come in many varieties, including mixtures, providing jams such as mango, peach, guava, orange, fig, pumpkin, tomato, banana, Canarian courgette, etc.
Our wide variety jams are very high quality products. They are produced naturally, and are in great demand by all the tourists that visit us through the year.

Had the situation unfolded in that manner in the U.S., I would have stood my ground and explained to the policeman that recording the conduct of public officials in a public place (without obstruction) was a right guaranteed by the Constitution, but I was in a foreign land and I did not know how free speech spread its wings in that country.
Also, I had many places to visit and things to see in Rome, and I did not want my time tangled with law-enforcement bureaucracy.
So, I complied with the officer's demand, and deleted the video. He watched me do it.
I bring this matter up for reflection only because every time I am abroad, my mind, with some experience there to guide it, celebrates the relatively broader range of freedoms we enjoy in this country.
Here is unfavorable and indecorous speech protected even though it may give offense, — as in the case of the Westboro Baptist Church — and a man may wave his flag of dissension feeling quite safe with the Constitution by his side.
Withal, I must hasten to add that the exercise of constitutionally protected speech does not always follow a smooth and linear path.
The trouble often arises because even though the person exercising free speech believes he is in the right, those receiving it may have a different opinion of the matter. So may the courts.
More:Free speech must be guarded with absolute passion: Subramanian
In Chaplinsky v. New Hampshire (1942), the U.S. Supreme Court established the "fighting words" doctrine which imposed limitations on free speech.
By that standard, any words that "by their very utterance inflict injury and or tend to incite an immediate breach of the peace" were ruled to have only "slight social value" that was outweighed by "the social interest in order and morality."
Subsequent Supreme Court decisions have loosened the definition of fighting words. Today, it is quite OK to burn the U.S. flag, or wear a jacket that says, "Blank the Court."
As for videotaping police officers in the conduct of their duties, the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit ruled in 2011 that people have a right to film police officers in public places.
Other U.S. Court of Appeals decisions have affirmed this position, stating that the right to record police in the performance of their duties in public places is "clearly established."
In size, an individual is a small entity, whereas bureaucracies, with their rules and policies and strength, are big machines.
The Constitution gives the individual citizen rights partly to protect him from the infrequent lapses of the big machines.
It is incumbent on citizens to know the rights guaranteed in our Constitution. It is equally important that every office and arm of the government is fully conversant with those rights.
After all, the might of our government is announced by the little man holding the Constitution in his hand.

Officials representing the Beijing Olympic Games in China have confirmed that the organizations in charge of the Opening Ceremony for the 2008 Summer Olympics may have faked at least two parts of the production. The ceremony lasted a total of four and a half hours.
It has been revealed that nine-year-old Lin Miaoke, who performed "Ode to the Motherland" during the ceremony, was only a visual effect. A recording of another girl's voice played throughout the stadium and on the television and radio broadcasts. It is also now known that that some of the fireworks shown on television were computer-generated imagery.
The New York Times reports Lin's voice was not perfect, and a member of the Chinese Politburo demanded that a more suitable voice was used. Organizers found that voice in seven-year-old Yang Peiyi. Another girl was used in rehearsals, but she was deemed to be too old.
Filmmaker Zhang Yimou, the production's director, praised Lin at a press conference with Chinese media.
The initial performer was a ten-year-old girl who was not named in the report and "whose voice was really good," but Zhang decided that she was too old. About ten girls were auditioned for the role at Central People's Radio Station in Beijing.
During the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy, tenor Luciano Pavarotti mimed to a recorded version of the song he was singing. The recording was of him, but the singer, then 70 years old, had problems with a cold and opted to lip sync.

Celebrating the birthday and music of Blackheath's Jonathan Dove
Anthony Phillips Added 26th Mar 2019 0
Blackheath-born Jonathan Dove is one of the world's leading, living composers of opera, choral works, plays, films, and orchestral and chamber music, writes Holly O'Mahony…
To celebrate his 60th birthday, Trinity Laban is holding a concert in his honour at Blackheath Halls. The event is free to attend but tickets are required.
"Jonathan is probably best known as a composer of opera, but his song cycle work is less known," says Andrew Matthews-Owen, junior trinity lead tutor in piano and curator of the concert – who is also a colleague and friend of the composer. Jonathan's latest song cycle – Letters From Claude, which sets Debussy's letters to his wife and his mistress – premiered at the Southbank Centre in May 2018 and was recorded for Nimbus Records. It was released earlier this month and went in at number 10 in the Classical Charts.
"I wanted to create an opportunity for audiences to hear these vocal works, and give a performance platform to young singers and pianists to experience this music," Andrew explains. "So I approached Jennifer Hamilton [Trinity Laban's head of vocal studies] about the possibility of curating a 60th birthday concert for Jonathan, making it Trinity Laban's tribute to this important composer."
Among the pieces being performed is the unaccompanied song cycle Ariel, which Andrew has split amongst four performers, with plans for the piece to be interspersed throughout the evening in various locations. "Not only does this increase the number of performers involved, but thematically reflects the shape-shifting nature of the character," he says.
In curating the material, Andrew was also keen to acknowledge Trinity Laban's Venus Blazing initiative, a year-long celebration of women composers. "In addition to Dove's song cycles, I have programmed solo piano pieces by Grammy-nominated composer Dobrinka Tabakova and some recent songs by Charlotte Bray" he reveals. "Though not explicitly associated with Dove, Tabakova and Bray are composers whose music I've recently introduced to Jonathan and that he holds in high regard."
When asked to reflect on classical music, we typically think of composers from the Baroque, Classical or Romantic eras, but many of us are unfamiliar with contemporary composers. Andrew is keen to raise awareness of the work of remarkable living composers – like Jonathan Dove. "It's easy in our niche classical world to assume that everyone knows about living composers, but I want to do anything I can to expose the wider community to this music," he says. "I hope a lot of people will hear Jonathan Dove's music for the first time and it will inspire them to go and listen to more."
Jonathan Dove Birthday Concert takes place in the Recital Room at Blackheath Halls, 23 Lee Road, Blackheath, London SE3 9RQ.

F.C. Gundlach: Photographic Work
Text by Klaus Honnef, Sebastian Lux, Ulrich Rüter, Hans-Michael Koetzle.
The photography of F.C. Gundlach defines the look of post-war fashion in Germany. Using strong contrast effects, he was able to create a style that unified model, clothing and backdrop into a single composite, merging, for example, in one famous series, the bold stripes of an Op Art jacket with the pyramids at Giza beyond, or clustering a model in boa feathers within a phalanx of police officers. During the four decades following the end of the Second World War, Gundlach worked for high-circulation magazines in Germany such as Film und Frau, Constanze, Annabelle, Stern and Quick. In 1963 he signed an exclusive contract with the magazine Brigitte, and from this point on he began to embody the image of 60s couture photography in Germany, with his frequent borrowings from Op and Pop art idioms. Born in 1926, Gundlach was also the founder of the photographic supplies company PPS and the PPS Galerie, one of the first photo galleries in Germany, and has done much influential work as a lecturer and exhibition curator. This monograph, the first in English to offer an extensive consideration of Gundlach's oeuvre, and co-designed by Gundlach himself, establishes his significance as a trailblazer in the industry.

A few photos from the wedding of Christy and Jarrett. A beautiful Shorehaven Golf Club wedding in Norwalk, Connecticut!! I was honored to be a part of the special day and capture them both surrounded by friends and family. Congratulations to the bride and groom and a big thanks for having me as their photographer!
Some Shorehaven history: Shorehaven was incorporated in 1922 as the Shorehaven Leasing Company and on October 11, 1923 the certificate of incorporation was changed and the name Shorehaven Golf Club Incorporated was adopted for the 1924 season. A dedicated and enthusiastic group of local citizens was responsible for the creation of the club, among them, Philip N. Knapp, the club's first president. Their principle interest was to bring a fine golf course to the Norwalk area.
The founders acquired about 150 acres now constituting the property, the bulk of which belonged to Woodbury C. Langdon, a wealthy resident of New York City who had acquired the land in the 1880s. Mr. Langdon had fallen in love with the beauty of the Norwalk shore area and built a summer home, carriage house and barn. The carriage house and barn became Shorehaven's first clubhouse.
The original plans for the course were submitted to a number of golf course architects. In October 1923, the board of directors voted to select Robert White of Mount Vernon, N.Y. to build the course. By October of the following year, the course was ready for play, built at the cost of $43,000. Thousands of golfers since then have enjoyed the exquisite beauty of this golf course and we are sure you will too.


TEHRAN- Iran has gained some 810 trillion rials (about $20.95 billion) in tax income since the beginning of the current Iranian calendar year (March 20, 2016).
At the present time, tax income accounts for 36 percent of the government's total income and 50 percent of the national annual budget, IRIB quoted National Tax Administration director Kamel Taqavinejad as saying on Monday.
As he said, the government could earn 680 trillion rials (about $17.5 billion) of tax income during the previous Iranian year and the figure is expected to increase up to one quadrillion rials (about $25.8 billion) by the current yearend (March 20, 2017), including the expected 140 trillion rials (about $3.6 billion) of income to be earned from levying tariffs.
"We expect to earn 90 percent of the predicted income by the present year end," he added.

Warren Wright Sr. (September 25, 1875 Springfield, Ohio – December 28, 1950 Miami Beach, Florida), was the owner of one of America's most successful Thoroughbred horse racing operations.

Wright was born in Ohio and raised in Chicago. In 1914, he became chairman of Chicago's Calumet Baking Powder company. He took the reins from his father, William Monroe Wright (1851 - 1931) the founder of the company . He guided it so prosperously that Calumet Baking Powder was sold for $32 million in the summer of 1929 to a New York company, Postum. Postum, with numerous acquisitions, soon became General Foods. The purchase and subsequent Wall Street Crash of 1929, just months later, left the Wrights among the wealthiest people in America during the Great Depression.

Warren Wright Sr. would also make his name and that of the family business the "gold standard" for Thoroughbred racing and breeding. William Monroe Wright had moved a Standardbred horse farm from Illinois to Kentucky in 1924. Upon the elder Wright's death in 1931, Warren Wright converted the Lexington farm, which bore the company name, from Standardbreds to Thoroughbreds. During his 18-year reign, Calumet Farm would become a dominant American stable and a tourist destination in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky. Calumet Farm was often compared to the New York Yankees (baseball), Boston Celtics (basketball) and Montreal Canadiens (hockey), as a sports dynasty.

With Ben A. Jones as his trainer, Bull Lea as his main stallion, and a bevy of choice broodmares, Wright bred and raced winners of five American Horse of the Year titles in the 1940s alone. They were: Whirlaway (1941 & 1942), Twilight Tear (1944), Armed (1947), and Citation (1948). Additionally, Calumet's Whirlaway (1941) and Citation (1948) won the United States Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing,  and were national fan favorites. Wright won four Kentucky Derbys in his lifetime. After his death, his widow Lucille Parker Wright - who had married Admiral Gene Markey - carried on the tradition and won another four as Calumet Farm set the record of eight official Derby winners. Its racing silks were known throughout the land as the famous "devil's red and blue".

In 1934, Mr. Wright had given National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame inductee Eddie Arcaro his start by putting him under contract and letting him ride at Narragansett Park during its inaugural year. Arcaro would ride three of Calumet's Derby winners and both Triple Crown winners.

In late summer of 1949, Mr. Wright suffered a heart attack. Just after his 75th birthday, on December 28, 1950, he died at his winter residence in Miami Beach, Florida. Warren Wright Sr. has a Memorial Marker at Thoroughbred Park in Lexington, Kentucky. In 2019, Warren Wright Sr. was honored for his contribution to the Thoroughbred racing industry by the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame as one of its "Pillars of the Turf."

«Арсена́л» — кинопоэма советского режиссёра Александра Довженко. В основе немой революционной эпопеи трагедия январского восстания в Киеве в 1918 году. Второй фильм так называемой «украинской трилогии» Довженко («Звенигора», «Арсенал», «Земля»). Фильм также известен под названием «Январское восстание в Киеве в 1918 году».

История создания
В 20-е годы историко-революционная тематика была одной из главных тем кино. Лесь Курбас поставил в 1925 году фильм «Арсенальцы». И через два года здесь же на Одесской кинофабрике Всеукраинского фотокиноуправления Довженко приступил к съёмкам фильма на ту же тему по собственному сценарию. В 1918 году 23-летний Александр Довженко служил добровольцем в армии Украинской Народной Республики и сам участвовал в штурме завода «Арсенал».

Известны притязания одессита Миколы Патлаха, участника и описателя Январского восстания 1918 года в Киеве, обвинившего Довженко в плагиате сценария «Арсенал».

Сюжет
Действие начинается на оккупированной немецкими войсками Украине, от эпизодов последних месяцев Первой мировой войны и крушении поезда с демобилизованными повествование переходит к событиям на киевском оружейном заводе «Арсенал», где центральной фигурой становится вернувшийся с фронта большевик Тимош. Январское восстание рабочих в Киеве, их противостояние с бандами гайдамаков, служащих буржуазной Раде Украинской Народной Республики, и жесточайшая расправа над восставшими.

 В 1972 году восстановлен на киностудии «Мосфильм», автор музыки к восстановленной версии фильма — Вячеслав Овчинников.

 Критика
Фильм вышел на экраны Киева 25 февраля 1929 года, на московские — 26 марта того же года. «Арсенал» вызвал положительные отзывы в США и был запущен в небольшом количестве в западноевропейском кинопрокате, но в сокращенной на 150 метров версии (Прага и Берлин).

Экспрессионистическая образность, совершенная операторская работа и оригинальная драматургия вывели фильм далеко за рамки обычной пропаганды и сделали его украинским произведением, входящим в классику мирового немого кино. Среди картин Довженко эта одна из самых богатых на кинематографические находки: провокации зрителя, психологические паузы, работа с непрофессиональными актёрами.…Метод исторической символики, раскрытый в «Арсенале», окажется, вероятно, центральным в создании советских исторических картин на ближайшее время. В этом его огромное значение, далеко выходящее за границы украинской кинематографии.Трактовка событий в фильме была неоднозначной. Одни находили его уступкой власти, которая после выхода фильма «Звенигора» не прекращала обвинять Довженко в национализме. Другие считали картину косвенным упреком националистам в том, что они потеряли Украину, ведь сам Довженко был участником боёв на «Арсенале», как рядовой армии Украинской народной республики. О событиях он рассказывает с большой достоверностью и искренностью, отчего это стопроцентно большевистское произведение не теряет ощущения сожалений автора по утраченному.

В книге «Репрессированное Возрождение» о работе Довженко автор пишет следующее:Чтобы разрешить себе дальнейшую работу в кино, Довженко должен изобразить во втором своем фильме «Арсенал» (1929) политическую концепцию Москвы, изобразив восстание против Центральной Рады, которую Довженко сам же и защищал в 1917—18 годах. Эта концепция, как видно это и по намекам в его «Автобиографии», причиняла ему «большую боль». И всё же Довженко показал красноречивыми средствами экспрессионизма красоту и силу украинского человека, бессмертно стоящего в средоточии самой смерти.''

Pop the champagne and get ready to celebrate: your Intranet and Enterprise Social Network are getting married!
Let's be clear: this is a modern marriage that I'm advocating. You won't see the Enterprise Social Network suddenly barefoot in the kitchen at home, waiting with a warm meal for the Intranet. The Intranet isn't going to pop on a suit every day to work comfortable boss-man hours with a three martini client lunch a la Don Draper.
They're going to be equals. Each will maintain its individual identity, while intertwining its best features to strengthen the other half.
In the world of modern employee communications, large organizations will have both an intranet and an enterprise social network. Companies cannot get away with one and not the other as they serve, in many ways, polar opposite functions.
This may seem puzzling at first. Both house information and communications for an audience of employees. Allow me to explain the differences between an intranet and an Enterprise Social Network from a human -- not technology -- perspective.
The Intranet: Intranets fill the need for leadership and management to push information to employees in a streamlined manner. Small group of employees use these tools to disseminate officially curated information to the masses of the company. Smaller teams and individuals may find value by storing and accessing important documents or connecting to the company directory or team site. From an employee perspective, the Intranet is a hub of official content.
The Enterprise Social Network: ESNs are technology conduits through which human relationships flow in the workplace. They are designed for any and all employees to connect with people first, and information second. The information one sees inside the network varies based on one's relationships, interests and subscriptions to content/groups. From the employee perspective, the ESN is a real-time stream of opinions, ideas, conversations and free-form dialogue.
These two very different enterprise tools will be better together, giving employees a way to find content and converse with context.
Integrating the intranet and ESN should preserve the individuality of each tool while creating a unified experience on the surface for employees. Each tool must be managed separately and with different purposes — and likely by different teams.
Remember that the management of the intranet is about pushing official content efficiently, whereas the ESN is simply a tool that allows employees to broaden their relationships and converse. Therefore, ESNs require the art and science of community management.
This could get a bit tricky, so let's take the integration process in three steps.
Which team manages each tool? Does IT manage the development work to integrate the two tools, and Communications pays for the license fee for the ESN? Who handles upgrades and bugs? Who owns Community Management? The division of responsibilities should be clearly drawn up early so that nobody gets angry when the clothing still isn't folded, I mean, when the software patches need to be applied.
How will the integration occur? Will you use APIs to create custom integrations (analogous to hiring an interior designer to redecorate the former bachelor pad), or vendor provided out-of-the-box widgets to display certain ESN content inside the Intranet (analogous to hitting up IKEA -- so easy that anyone can do it, and it may not be perfect, but it sure works)?
What stays and what goes? Will you keep the Intranet's commenting functionality, or forgo it for the ESN's commenting and liking engine?
After the deal has been sealed and the ESN and Intranet are working together seamlessly, it's time to celebrate.
Congratulations! You have given your employees a thoroughly modern set of tools that serves their individual purposes while strengthening the overall value that they can achieve together. Watch your employees revel in their newfound abilities to share content easily, give their opinions, connect with others and socialize information with teams like never before.
Document adoption and engagement on both before you go-live, because you're bound to see an increase. Cheers, my friend -- this is a match made in heaven.
Walking down the aisle doesn't mean that bliss awaits behind every corner. Marriages take work and it's best to manage the process openly and honestly.
Once you've integrated the intranet and ESN, schedule quarterly meetings for their respective managing teams (with open dialogue on an as-needed basis) to discuss new integrations, bugs, updates, and strong points.
The Community Management team must take the pulse of the ESN community daily in order to ensure long-term success. The technology team should monitor how employees are utilizing certain groups, areas and functionality in order to optimize for future integrations.
Couples' therapy isn't just a means to fix problems, but continues constructive dialogue once the pomp and circumstance is over. An integrated intranet and ESN need continual maintenance, and this will help maintain the engagement seen during the Honeymoon stage.
The world of enterprise communication and collaboration will continue to change. We don't know what intranets and social tools will look like in five years, 10 years or in the long term. We've seen so many changes to the landscape in the past decade, that the prospect of continual innovation seems somewhat alarming.
But since we can't predict the future, the best course of action today is to embrace the integrated intranet and ESN, nourish their connection, and prepare for whatever the future may bring.

Chargers Media Coverage
Chargers earn pristine grade after topping Chiefs on the road
You can't get much better than this week's performance.
By Michael Peterson@ZoneTracks Sep 29, 2021, 8:25am PDT
Share All sharing options for: Chargers earn pristine grade after topping Chiefs on the road
Denny Medley-USA TODAY Sports
Whenever you play one of the best teams in the NFL, you usually have to play your best game of the year to even have a shot at winning the game. Thankfully, that's exactly what happened in Arrowhead on Sunday morning.
The Chargers took the ball away from the Chiefs four times, including one on each of the Chiefs' first three drives. You can't really draw it up much better than that.
Unsurprisingly, the Chargers received a pristine "A+" grade from CBS Sports' John Breech who dishes out weekly performance grades every week for all 32 teams.
Here's what he had to say about the Bolts and the phenomenal job they did in containing Kansas City:
"Justin Herbert threw four touchdown passes on the road as the Chargers announced to the Chiefs they'll be fighting for that AFC West title. Herbert and the Chargers withstood every blow the Chiefs fired at them in this one, taking two fourth-quarter leads en route to the win — at Arrowhead Stadium no less. The Chargers revamped defense forced four turnovers that kept the Chiefs to 24 points, and kept the Chargers in the game. Mike Williams had 112 yards and two touchdowns, becoming the big-play receiver the franchise thought they were getting when Los Angeles selected him in the first round five years ago. Brandon Staley played to win the game with plenty of aggressive calls on the winning drive that paid off — making his reputation felt across the league as a gutsy coach that knows his players. This is a good Chargers team and while the win is shocking — it shouldn't come as a surprise Los Angeles is playing this well."
The Chargers will look to have an encore performance on defense with the surprisingly high-flying Raiders offense on tap for Monday night. Las Vegas is currently averaging a league-high 471.0 yards of offense per game with 379.7 of that coming through the air. If the Chargers secondary thought they were getting a break, they're in for some unfortunate news. This isn't your father's Raiders team where the entire offense was predicated off of their ground game. Running the ball has been an afterthought this year and the Bolts should expect more of the same this week.

It's Dani's first official day on the job at V3 and she's already overwhelmed—not by the quantity or kind of patients she'll have to help but by the enormous office, generous expense account, luxury company car and a hyper-efficient assistant the company has presented her with. Unused to having anyone doing anything for her, Dani resists the perks. But her new boss, Connor McLane, takes her out to dinner and convinces her she deserves to be taken care of and treated well. Despite the growing tension between her and Anders and the continued strangeness with Nico, Dani gives in to the glamorous extras, including the assistance of the energetic Paloma, which come with being employed by V3.
TK has returned to the Hawks but realizing that his days as a pro football player are numbered, he meets with Connor to discuss the potential of securing lucrative endorsement deals like his teammate Rex Evans has as a client of V3. Unfortunately, TK's bad behavior with Sporty Boost has followed him. However, Connor is willing to give TK a second chance if he can prove to the world that he's lovable and reliable—no small feat for TK. If he can do it, not only will he secure his financial future, but also he'll be able to see Dani as a patient again.
While Nico and Dani tag-team on handling a former child-star whose love addiction is getting in the way of shooting her first serious film, he admits to Dani that he never expected her to stay. But she has no idea that he doesn't want her to stay just as much as Anders doesn't. Is Nico protecting her…or pushing her out?


The number of fraudulent cases in Wales more than doubled in 2018 compared to 2017, with 30 cases reaching court in 2018 according to the KPMG Fraud Barometer. In value terms, KPMG's research shows a staggering jump from £4.5 million in 2017 to £18.7 million in 2018.
There was also an increase in the amount of crimes carried out by employees, reminding businesses of the need for ongoing assessment of internal fraud risks and the controls they use to address those risks. In addition, unlike last year when there were no cases involving fraudsters over the age of 55, this year there were five such cases.
Whilst working for the Government of Bermuda as a payments manager, a 50 year old man from Cwmbran transferred £1.3 million into his UK bank account which he then spent on cars and properties, as well as funding a gambling habit. The individual had been employed as an expert to implement a new system which he then manipulated. The individual was jailed for over seven years.
In another story of employee theft a woman from Wrexham who worked for Airbus in a role which included managing travel expenses, stole nearly £132,000 by paying expenses bills for engineers with her company credit card and then submitting duplicate claims. The 54 year old woman was given a jail sentence of two and a half years.
A 36 year old man from Conwy, North Wales, allegedly defrauded expat investors of £6 million by persuading them to invest in Dubai-based companies. The investors reported being provided with convincing documents with one being flown to Dubai for a factory and office tour.
The number of fraud cases reaching courts in the UK rose by 78% in 2018 according to research by KPMG Forensic.
KPMG's Fraud Barometer, which records cases of alleged fraud with a value of more than £100,000, found that 453 cases with a total value of £1.2 billion were coming to Court across the UK last year. The barometer includes one supercase (a case greater than £50m), but there is a large volume of smaller value cases between £10 million and £50 million covering areas such as evasion of duty, VAT fraud, investment fraud, loans and mortgages, counterfeit goods, pensions and social benefits.


Many well-known SaaS companies have doubled their prices. I've personally worked with a few that have gone through it. In most cases, your conversion rates stay the same and you see a huge jump in revenue.
This is because people tend to under-price themselves. Also, your product improves over time so it provides more value and can support a higher price.
But don't raise prices for old customers. Grandfather them in so their plans stay the same price. In the long run, it won't make a difference to your growth since most of them will churn out anyway.
If you raise prices on current customers, you'll get a huge backlash. It gets nasty. I'm pretty sure that Zendesk tried it and had to reverse the price increase.
I highly recommend raising your price by 100% for a month on new customers. Keep a close eye on your revenue and your conversion rates. If things don't go well, you can easily reverse it and discount everyone that paid for the more expensive plan. Either way, you'll know what your market will actually support.

Senior commander takes message of reform to community supporters
By Kari HawkinsSeptember 7, 2018
1 / 1 Show Caption + Hide Caption – Lt. Gen. Ed Daly, deputy commander of the Army Materiel Command and senior commander of Redstone Arsenal, expresses his appreciation to members of the Army Community Relations Committee. His presentation to the group charged them to modernize and reform in its support of Redstone Arsenal. (Photo Credit: Megan Gully) VIEW ORIGINAL
REDSTONE ARSENAL, Ala. -- Redstone Arsenal's senior commander charged a long-standing group of community leaders to harness their six decades of support and modernize to remain relevant in the future.
During a luncheon Thursday at Redstone Arsenal's Summit, Lt. Gen. Ed Daly challenged the Army Community Relations Committee to look through the lens of reform and expand its role as the installation continues to grow.
"On behalf of Redstone's senior leaders, we could not ask for a better relationship and we could not ask for you to do any more than you have done. This is a special place. People come here because of Redstone Arsenal and they don't want to leave for all the right reasons," Daly said.
"But, speaking with candor, if we want to get to the next level and remain relevant for the future, we have to do a self-assessment to see where we are vulnerable. Are we vulnerable based on BRAC criteria? We should be using BRAC criteria to make the environment of Redstone Arsenal and the local community better, not just because there might be another BRAC, but because it's the right thing to do."
The Army Community Relations Committee formed in the late 1950s to ensure favorable conditions for the future growth of Redstone Arsenal. In its early years, the committee worked on key issues such as race relations across Huntsville. In more recent years, the committee has supported Base Realignment and Closure moves that have grown Redstone Arsenal into a diverse federal center of excellence.
Daly, who is also the deputy commanding general of the Army Materiel Command, laid out three questions he hears frequently from the Redstone community: What about the community's infrastructure plan, and efforts for such amenities as more rental car companies, hotels, and better roads and highways? What guarantee is there that education programs at every level are going to meet the needs of families? Why is Redstone Arsenal a little under-appreciated in what it offers the Tennessee Valley region, in terms of the attention and visibility it gets?
The committee must partner with Redstone Arsenal to ensure a well-educated and ready workforce for the 21st century, synergistic growth in transportation and infrastructure, high quality of life, and top notch security and response efforts, Daly said.
Daly asked the committee to consider becoming more inclusive of other community leaders within the North Alabama/South Tennessee region; changing its name to reflect Redstone Arsenal's diverse tenant base and expanding its vision for what Redstone Arsenal can become in the future.
Redstone Arsenal and the Tennessee Valley are among the best areas for the military, Daly said, for a myriad of reasons.
"One of those reasons is the collaboration, professionalism, support and passion that you have for the Department of the Army, Department of Defense, Department of Justice and NASA workforce that we have here," he said. "Redstone Arsenal is an example of how you have really been relevant. Redstone Arsenal still exists, unequivocally, without a doubt, in part, because of this committee."
Among those leaders in the audience who Daly recognized, he especially thanked committee founders W.F. Sanders and Ray Jones, and those members who have been part of the committee since its beginnings.
"We appreciate what you have done to change the course and direction of the past and to bring us to where we are today. What you have done is immeasurable," Daly said.
Since Daly's first association with Redstone Arsenal in 2011 as the commandant of the Army's ordnance school at Fort Lee, Virginia, and during earlier assignments at the Army Materiel Command, he has seen the tremendous growth in both tenants and employees at the arsenal. He reviewed for the committee the worldwide mission, synchronization and integration of many of the arsenal's 80 tenants.
While the BRAC of 2005 brought many tenants to Redstone Arsenal - including Army Materiel Command, Army Contracting Command and Army Security Assistance Command, as well as expanded operations of the Missile Defense Agency - and created an installation that now boasts 16 flag officers, 120 Senior Executive Service members and 43,000 employees, Daly said the installation keeps growing.
"Redstone Arsenal was a big winner in BRAC 2005 because of your influence and because of what you have done to set the conditions," Daly said. "It made sense because Redstone met all the BRAC criteria. That couldn't have happened without everyone thinking forward."
Redstone Arsenal has a total annual statewide economic impact of $18 billion and pays taxes of $467 million per year. Its employment base creates another 60,000 jobs in the community.
"Redstone Arsenal continues to be the economic engine and driver for success in the Tennessee Valley," Daly said. "We are a mutually supportive family and we need to continue to think that way. We are inexplicably linked in many ways. Our success drives your success, and your success drives our success."
In addition, Daly told the committee members that Redstone Arsenal is embracing an innovative approach to solving problems, a more entrepreneurial spirit in providing services to the community and measures to open more of the installation to the public. He reviewed plans for Exploration Park and Redstone Gateway, and asked for the community's support for both of these developments.
The committee consists of about 50 leaders representing business, academia and government in Madison County. The committee's co-chair Mike Segrest said its long legacy of service positions it to continue to support Redstone's growth.
"This committee was formed for the purpose of solving problems and working together with the Redstone commander and the community," Segrest said. "It's a group of community leaders in place for the commander from the first day of command. Over the years, a lot of problems have been solved. Together, it has truly been a team and has worked really well."
Sanders, who is one of the committee's first co-chairs, expressed support for Daly's suggestion of modernization and reform.
"I agree 100 percent with what he said. We need to get bigger and better, and involve more people. That's what will keep us looking to the future," Sanders said.

Like most real estate practitioners, I started my real estate career with dealings in the sub-prime sector of the Nigeria's real estate market. I got to know of a suburban initiative between the Lagos and Ogun State government and keyed into it. Lands in this area sold at the time for between an average of N500, 000 (Approximately $2, 222) – N1 Million ($4, 444) per plot and the most expensive house (a 3 bedroom bungalow) sold for about N8 Million ($35, 556) per unit.
Back then, this was really a big deal for me but like all forward looking individuals, I wanted more out of this vibrant industry. I wanted to deal with the big boys, have the juiciest briefs and of course make good money. So, I made plans to do so and I'm glad to let you know that this is my reality today. It took me a while and some really bold moves but today, I handle multi- million dollar transactions and I'm getting better at it every day.
Visualise: This is where it all begins, if you can see yourself closing those million dollar deals, getting those high profile briefs and hanging out with high net worth individuals, then you can achieve it. You'll just have to hold on to this dream in your mind till it's in your hands. Remember, all things are possible to those who can dare to dream and pursue their dreams with enthusiasm.
Have a Plan: Moving from sub-prime to prime properties is a big deal and I hate to break this to you but it won't come easy. Sub-prime properties are a matter of necessity. Leasing properties here for instance is a matter of necessity. They are not expensive and turnover is kind of high but the commissions are really small. I mean compare getting 5% of N400, 000 ($1, 778) rent per annum to making 5% on rent of $65, 000 per annum. I think that just explains everything. The problem here however, is that people are not just going to drop those briefs on your laps because you're cute and have a funny sense of humour, they need to know you can deliver. You need to have a satisfactory track record of handling this kind of transactions. The question therefore is, how do you get the required experience?
In my case, I worked with a real estate development firm that only builds Luxury and Ultra Luxury properties in the choicest locations in Nigeria and leveraged on their reputation. Your plan may be different from mine, but you'll definitely need one.
Get a Mentor: This will save you from wasting precious time, resources and making unnecessary mistakes common to new comers. All my mentor did for me initially was point me to the right books to read and call me up occasionally to see if I had challenges. Of course I went to him whenever I felt frustrated (and this was a lot of times) and he gave me really useful advice most of the time.
Know Your Market: This cannot be over emphasised, if you intend to survive on this level, you must breath, eat, drink and live real estate. Since you have chosen to operate in the prime market, you must know all there is to know about the near luxury, luxury and ultra-luxury properties in your identified market and acquaint yourself with new developments in the real estate world across the globe. In other words, be current.
Build Your Network: A friend once told me that you're only as successful as your network of agents at every given time. Whenever you discover you've started having issues with getting briefs/closing deals, you need to know, it may be time to make some adjustments to your network. This may not be easy initially but be tenacious and let your peers in the industry know you're here to stay. Before long, you'll identify people you can work with and you share your ideology on matters. Be very careful here though, some agents can be very fraudulent, investigate well before going into transactions with strangers.
Read for your Life: In this industry, you need to be current. If you intend to deal with really wealthy people, your most effective weapon is knowledge. Most of them can't stand uninformed people. If they perceive you to be unintelligent, you'll repel them. The idea is that you may give them wrong advise/information and since their decisions are based on accurate information, they can't afford a wrong informant.
Remember, these are just basic tips to aid your smooth transition, feel free to research further on topic, you'll need it. However, remember, where there is a will, there is a way. It is totally doable. So, good luck.

KEYWORDS Ethiopia crash / Obituary
Darcy Belanger, director of U.S. professional development for PCL, which has offices in the U.S. and Canada, died on March 10 in the crash of an Ethiopian Airlines flight shortly after takeoff from Addis Ababa. He was one of 157 killed in the accident involving the Boeing aircraft, which is being investigated.
According to PCL, Belanger, 46, was traveling to the UN Environment Assembly in Nairobi, Kenya, in a non-company role as director of strategic initiatives and a founding member of Parvati.org to advocate for the Marine Arctic Peace Sanctuary (MAPS), which seeks to find solutions for polar cap ice melt.
Belanger joined PCL in 2004 as a corporate training consultant for the company in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, managing training . in its college of construction. In 2012 he was promoted to manager of the company's digital communications, including the company's website and social media program.
He later was promoted to manager of leadership development for PCL's professional development team where he helped develop and launch its leadership academy within the college of construction, including the company's leadership certification program, a PCL spokesman said.
In 2017, Belanger was appointed director of professional development for PCL Construction Enterprises in Denver, the U.S. headquarters. He was responsible for directing professional development services in the U.S., and implementing company-wide learning.
"In 2014, when Parvati became aware of plans for seismic testing in Canada's Arctic Ocean, Darcy was one of the first to join the cause for MAPS, recognizing the importance of the Arctic Ocean to our collective future," says parvati.org. " He co-founded Parvati.org and has been on the front lines for MAPS ever since."
Belanger graduated from the University Alberta and Ryerson University in Toronto. He also graduated from Royal Roads University in Victoria, British Columbia. He is survived by his wife Aime.

You may need to adjust your driving to suit the particular surface you are driving on and how each type of surface can affect your vehicle's handling. You should also be alert for changes in the road surface.
Asphalt has a smooth, black appearance and produces a low level of road noise when you drive over it. It's often used on busy roads and curves because it stands up well to wear caused by braking vehicles.
Asphalt provides good overall grip, but has reduced skid resistance when it is wet. This means you should slow down and take extra care when driving on asphalt in wet weather.
Chip-seal consists of a thin layer of stones set in tar. It has a rough appearance when in good condition, but may wear smooth with age and frequent use.
Worn chip-seal has reduced skid resistance, so be alert for smooth patches as you drive.
Slow down on newly laid chip-seal. There may be patches of loose chips, which can increase your risk of skidding. Loose chips can also be thrown up when vehicles drive over them and could break your windscreen.
Gravel (sometimes called 'metal') is usually only used on roads that don't have much traffic. Gravel roads tend to be minor roads in rural areas.
Because gravel can move under your wheels, it offers very low skid resistance. Loose stones may also be thrown up by vehicles. Because of this, you need to drive very carefully on gravel roads. Adjust your speed to suit the conditions.
You will also need to take extra care in dry weather, as your visibility may be reduced by dust that will be thrown up by any vehicles in front of you. Always increase your following distance to stay back from the dust cloud.

Today's trip to the Sydney Tram Museum was aborted by a Phillips head screw lodged in the front left car tyre. Not positioned to flatten the tyre but enough of a risk to head home. So tomorrow begins with a trip to K-Mart Tyre and Auto. The afternoon was spent instead with Men in Black II and Star Gate SG1. This was still good though as just being together is the important thing. There is healing in being together in a way that respects and values each person. Most of the work in therapy is done in the therapist and client "being together" in a way that values and respects each other – the therapeutic relationship. All that said, somewhere in each relationship there must be a commitment to communicating genuine feelings, whether of hurt or satisfaction, and attending to those feelings in each person.
All this is the work of the witch as well. Not the Harry Potter type witch, but the practitioner of the "old ways", the village wise – woman, with one foot in nature and one in the village, one in the physical plane and one in the spiritual.

Q: Writing data to disk in parallel? So I am working on a C++/cli image processing library and am trying to optimize my code. Basically, I am passed a System::Drawing::Bitmap of the image, which I then need to write to disk, perform complex analysis on, and return the results of the analysis. I thought that I could write the image to disk in parallel to speed up things (my algorithm does not modify the image). However, I have not worked with threads much, so I wanted to get your input on what the best way to do this would be.
string ProcessImage(System::Drawing::Bitmap ^bmp, System::String^ targetFile)
{
    bmp->Save(targetFile);
    System::Drawing::Bitmap^ bmp8 = BitmapConvertPixelFormat(bmp, 8); //<-- a function I wrote which converts the 32bpp I am passed into an 8bpp one
    string results = Analyze(bmp8); //<--- takes a good bit of time
    return results;
}

Please let me know your thoughts.
Thank you in advance!

A: Writing/reading in parallel to/from a single mechanical disk is not a good idea because the mechanical head needs to spin every time to service an I/O request, so using multiple threads will just bounce it around needlessly and create overhead.
You can try to benchmark a bit, but I'm afraid you'll just have to resort to using a single thread and writing sequentially.

A: Queueing off the disk writes to another thread seems like a qood idea, but only to one writer thread per disk so that the complex analysis can run on without the slow disk-writes holding it up.

A: If it's worth it you can invest some time into understanding how to use Parallel HDF5. It can write to a file in parallel.

Delegate Hugo's statement on State Corporation Commission accepting Dominion Energy's application to bury Haymarket power lines
dean July 27, 2018 News
Fairfax, VA – Yesterday, the State Corporation Commission (SCC) issued its order approving Dominion Energy's request to construct the Haymarket power lines along the I-66/Hybrid route.
"Now that the State Corporation Commission has accepted Dominion's application, western Prince William County residents can be assured that the Haymarket power lines will be buried," said Delegate Tim Hugo. "This community-led effort, which I was proud to contribute to, will ensure the quality of life in western Prince William County is maintained. Last year, I promised to pass legislation to bury the power lines, and working together, we did."
The SCC's approval to underground the power lines can be found here.

There's freedom and confidence that come from knowing your sled is ready for anything you can throw at it. And that's exactly the feeling you get with the 2018 Renegades. Their longer tracks and special features empower you to be the master of trails, cruises, jumps and powder carves... Whatever adventure you're tackling.
Rotax 850 E-TEC engine unlocking every rider's ability to get into those special places. Now also in 175 and 146 in. track lengths, there's a powerful, effortless and agile Summit model that will have you feeling the rush of laying down the first tracks in that area you've never been.
With the new Freeride, you won't be wondering "Can I?" because with this new sled, almost anything is possible. Now on the REV Gen4 platform, it's effortless to maneuver in deep snow and in the air. And with four configurations to choose from, you can get its extreme performance matched to how and where you ride.
Let's get this straight – the beauty of snow-covered trees and hilltops is best enjoyed by snowmobile. And if you're going to do it, do it right, with the unmatched comfort and luxury of a Grand Touring sled.
The Ski-Doo Expedition sleds occupy a category all their own. Born in Scandinavia, where groomed trails are scarce, they meld touring sled comfort with off-trail capability and work snowmobile usefulness.
Tundra sleds are uniquely designed to go places most vehicles can't. Paramount is its LTS telescopic front suspension that enables a wide and flat belly pan – the sled easily slides on top of snow and over obstacles like a toboggan.
– they're purpose built for work with incredible towing, hauling and flotation capability.


Americans are optimistic about future technology, according to new data from the Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project, even if some of that technology freaks them out.
Some 66 percent of those surveyed by the Pew Research Center believed that altering their children's DNA "to produce smarter, healthier, or more athletic offspring" would represent a change for the worse. Majorities seemed similarly reluctant to embrace lifelike robots taking care of their aging parents, personal and commercial drones running amok in U.S. airspace, and implants "or other devices" that constantly display information about the world (designers of Google Glass, take note).
While many Americans seemed positive that computers will eventually create art as masterful as anything produced by humans, and a supermajority (81 percent) thought that lab-grown custom organs for transplant will be available within the next fifty years, a relatively small number (19 percent) believed that humans will eventually harness the ability to control the weather. There are limits to what we think we can do, in other words.
The main takeaway here is that, no matter how apprehensive Americans might feel about technologies only beginning to mature (such as drones, wearable electronics, and designer babies), they still feel confident about where things are going. The survey (executed in conjunction with Smithsonian magazine) took place in February 2014 and involved 1,001 adults; the data has a margin of error of +/- 3.6 percentage points.
Putting drones in the hands of the general public would be a HUGE mistake. The terrorist, the drug runner, the guy with a grudge against the IRS or the disgruntled former employee could access to drones. Instead of random shootings, we would have random drone attacks. For the love of God, please do not tell me this is protected by the Second Amendment.

The most important message he has for the boy is that his biggest strength is being himself, because humans are incredible.
Strangely, though, he seems to gain strength and stability from traveling with the formerly sad, but actually quite charming and secretly strong human.

We've been having a lazy day. Kid woke up with a tummy ache, so we skipped the second day of her swim meet and we've been just hanging around. At lunch time, Kid asked for spaghetti. While she was eating it, she said, "I look like an Ood!" And she did.
Can you tell which is the Ood and which is the Kid?
The good news: The Kid finally asked to be taken to purchase a Doctor Who toy.
The bad news: It was this one.
This is, in many ways, the perfect toy. The Adipose, for those who haven't yet seen "Partners in Crime," is best defined on TARDIS Data Core, as "a race of vaguely humanoid blobs of fat." They are made to be stress balls. This toy feels exactly like a lump of belly fat.
Which is, of course, the down side. The Adipose are possibly the most disgusting race on all of Doctor Who. They seed humans and grow babies from excess body fat. These adorable babies then emerge fully formed and toddle off down the street to their home base. The whole idea gets more vile the more you think about it, especially when the seeding is accelerated and the Adipose start to convert muscle, bones, hair and organs.
My Kid loves them because they're cute, and she spent 16 of her dollars to purchase one, which she now uses to give me the willies.
But at least she's now openly excited to watch Doctor Who.
The Kid has been resistant to Doctor Who for some time now. She knows all the basics: TARDIS and Daleks and what a sonic screwdriver looks like, but she's never watched the show. She was too young, and then she got into a phase where she's resistant to anything I really like. So when she saw me and KPD getting excited about things to do with The Doctor, she decided she didn't like Doctor Who. Tonight, that changed.
We'll see what happens next, but I'm hoping we've just added another chapter to our Kid's nerd history.
And she doesn't even KNOW how cool Rory is yet!
We stopped by Goodwill today to buy sheets. We need a lot of sheets to hang up in the basement so we can make a haunted house for the Kid's birthday party. As we were checking out the young man at the counter suddenly noticed KPD's shirt.
Young man: Oh, wow! I just noticed your shirt! That's awesome.
KPD: Did you see my phone?
Me: Yeah, we really went full nerd today, didn't we?
Young man: Wow! Ravenclaw is my house, and…is that David Tennant taking the selfie?!
Did I mention we're nerds?
