Left 4 Dead Review
I'd like to think that when the zombie apocalypse occurs, I'll be well prepared and ready to take down the horde of shuffling undead. Dead Rising and Dawn of the Dead have taught me how to survive in a shopping mall. 28 Days Later has taught me that sticking together and staying away from rage-infected monkeys are, both, good ideas. Resident Evil has taught me that walking properly, rather than like a tank, is crucial to staying alive. Shaun of the Dead taught me that killing zombies to Queen is awesome and a good old British pub is the safest place to go. Now with Left 4 Dead added to my collection of zombie apocalypse training guides, I'm pretty much sorted. Come the inevitable zombie uprising, I'll be there; cricket bat and shotgun in hand.
Left 4 Dead really is unlike any game you will play this year. Sure, co-op and multiplayer have been around for a long time, but never have they been moulded with such style, such finesse, such…fun. It's like a delicious gory cocktail. Take 4 parts co-op, 8 parts online, 2 parts gore and blood, 3 parts zombie apocalypse, 1 part tomato juice, 2 parts gin, add crushed ice and serve it all in a zombie skull.
The campaign mode places four survivors, either AI or human controlled, into a zombie infested world and forces them to fight through a number of campaigns, and a much higher number of zombies. There is no story as such, the only story is told through scribblings on the wall, as also seen in Portal, and we don't know much about each survivor's past. This is one of the major flaws in the game, but I honestly didn't care, especially when I was having so much fun reducing a zombie to a mere pile of limbs on the floor. The main aim of each campaign is to get from point A to point B alive. Simple and not too taxing right? Wrong.
A little thing called the Director AI steps in to make your journey a living hell. I honestly suspect that the Director is a troubled man somewhere in Valve HQ. Some say it's Gabe Newell himself, pulling the strings. Whatever the Director is, it's beautifully sadistic and makes Left 4 Dead one of the most replayable titles I have ever had the pleasure of holding in my hands. The Director basically mixes things up a bit each time you play. You will never play the same game again. EVER. Each time you play, something is different. Zombies may be placed in different parts of the level, items may be moved around and hordes may rush at you at different points during the game. Nothing is ever kept the same. Each play through is completely different, like playing a new game. It makes each play a lot more tense as you don't know what is going to happen, and when. It also adds an unbelievable amount of replayability.
This mixing up of the game makes Left 4 Dead one long adrenaline rush. You may start off fighting for your life the moment you leave the safe room, to then move into a quieter area. Even in these quieter areas it can still be tense. You have a few bullets left in your shotgun, no health packs or pills and then you accidentally knock into a car setting off it's alarm. In about three seconds, a horde of zombies will be coming your way to rip you limb from limb. You bunker down in a corner, all 4 of you, and try and pick off as many as you possibly can while trying to stay alive, until the onslaught is over. It finally ends and your heart is beating fast and your blood is pumping. By the end of the seemingly short 1 hour campaigns you will feel mentally and physically drained due to the rush after rush after rush of excitement. It's this that sucks you into Left 4 Dead.
Co-op is the only way to play Left 4 Dead though. Playing solo is fun, especially since the AI controlled survivors are pretty self reliant and will help you out when needed while covering your back, but playing with friends really adds to the experience. For the purpose of this review (*cough* yeah right) I decided to set up a late night co-op session with a bunch of fellow games writers. For the next 4 or so hours there was much shouting, swearing, bickering, laughing, screaming and sighing. And it was the best experience I have had on Xbox LIVE. Be it because of the failed plan to hold off a bunch of zombies in a derelict construction yard, or an attempt to hold ground until the army come and pick us up from an old farmhouse, or the screaming of my team mates as I accidentally went through a metal detector, alerting the horde, every second was amazing. The communication element really shakes up how you play the game. Me and my team were planning strategies, most of which failed because we didn't think them through properly, and screaming swear words as a Hunter leaps at us and rips us apart. It makes you feel as if you are actually fighting through a zombie wasteland, instead of sitting on your couch. We played until the early hours of the morning only stopping because: A) I hadn't slept in so long and B) I had to be up in about 4 hours. Left 4 Dead had suck it's infected teeth into our necks and was not letting go. We had become it's bitch.
For those who get bored of co-op, which is highly unlikely, there is Versus to makes things a bit more interesting. This pits two teams of four against each other through two of the campaigns. First off, it is disappointing that only two of the campaigns are playable as I would have loved to have played as the Infected in Dead Air. Anyway, one team play as the Survivors and the other as the Infected. The Survivors have to get to the safe room with as little damage taken as possible and in the quickest time possible. This then earns them points. The Infected's job is to stop the Survivors from getting to the safe room, by any means possible. However, playing as the Survivors just seems…well…boring. The tension of the campaign has gone because the Infected players respawn after 30 seconds, leaving you no time to recover from a previous onslaught of Infected. The thing that made the campaign so much fun were the quiet sections where everything seemed just that little bit too quiet. Now, you're just getting continually attacked by the Infected players every few seconds and it just, honestly, becomes monotonous.
Playing as the Infected, however, is so much fun it's ridiculous. You get to play as the little buggers who caused you so much hardship in the campaign: the Hunter, the Smoker, the Boomer, the Tank, whilst the Director takes control of the ordinary Infected. The Infected force you to play in a completely different way. Instead of running out and killing all the survivors, you need to think methodically. You need to stalk the rooftops, strategise your attacks to coincide with your team mates to really catch them off guard and pick each survivor off. Just the fact you get to play as the Infected is fun enough, but the whole aspect of having to play differently really adds to the fun.
As well as playing brilliantly, the game looks and sounds fantastic too. The derelict houses, the ruined airports and dark woods all the add to the atmosphere of a post-apocalyptic, zombie ruled world. The detail on the zombie faces, as well as the detail on the Survivor's faces really make it seem as if this could actually happen and these are real people. Some of the set pieces, such as the exploding aeroplane, are just spectacular to just pause and watch. The music adds to the tension and atmosphere. It always seems to chime in at just the right moments. It can chime in to alert you of a Witch in the vicinity or to add tension to an oncoming wave of zombies. The shouts of "Grabbin' pills" and the cries of "Molotovs here" make it seem as if the Survivors could be a rag-tag bunch of people who are left to fend for themselves by helping each other out, and the contextual dialogue really adds to this.
Left 4 Dead is a fantastic game. Not exactly flawless, but tremendous fun. And by tremendous fun, I mean the equivalent of riding the best roller-coaster in the world, whilst eating the best piece of cake in the world, whilst the most beautiful woman in the world does unspeakable things to you. In essence, an orgasmic thrill ride….with cake.
Oh, and I've got dibs on Louis!

RBA cut fully priced as markets buckle on trade war – 14 May 2019
The escalating trade war between the US and China has convinced financial markets that there will be a RBA interest rate cut in August, as 10-year government bond yields touched a fresh record low, the Australian dollar sagged, and the ASX skidded in response to a fresh bout of global market turmoil.
The probability of an Australian interest rate cut advanced after a turbulent session on Wall Street, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average closing down 617 points, or 2.4 per cent. The S&P 500 fell 2.4 per cent and the Nasdaq shed 3.4 per cent in Monday trading.
"The market has reacted negatively but you have to think about where it started from," said Vertium Asset Management fund manager Jason Teh. "Shares were at three-month highs. So markets were set up for any bit of negative news with little margin of safety."
Still, the latest breakdown on trade talks isn't a positive development by any means, he said, particularly as the renewed tensions have emerged at the same time as signs of a tentative recovery in global economic growth. "Any negative macroeconomic events make the recovery more fragile," he said.
But he's also expecting global central banks to respond to the latest threats to the growth outlook and said "central banks are fully aware that to prevent a global growth slowdown they need to act accordingly."
Financial markets hiked pricing of a US interest rate cut by the end of the year to 80 per cent by the end of Monday's US session and are also now fully pricing in a quarter-percentage-point cut from the Reserve Bank of Australia by August, up from a 98 per cent chance of a cut on Monday.
Australian rate cut expectations were given further weight after a drop in the conditions component of the National Australia Bank business survey to 3 points, from a reading of 7 points in March, with the employment component dropping sharply.
Ten-year Australian government bond yields fell to a record low of 1.68 per cent and the S&P/ASX 200 index dropped heavily, with the equity market falling 1.2 per cent to 6220.
The market turbulence came after China said on Monday it would slap tariffs on $US60 billion ($86 billion ) of US goods from next month, in retaliation for the latest increase in US tariffs on Chinese goods.
On Friday, the US raised tariffs on Chinese imports to 25 per cent from 10 per cent on $US200 billion of goods. The US has also threatened to impose a 25 per cent tariff on another $US325 billion of Chinese goods.
"Broadly speaking, there has been a quicker realisation that the latest escalation of trade tensions is here to stay," said National Australia Bank currency strategist Rodrigo Catril. "We have seen an acceleration of those tensions and it's caught the market by surprise."
Mr Catril said that, in place of tariffs from China, markets may have been expecting less obvious measures on trade from the Chinese government, such as making it a bit harder to do business in China or allowing its currency, the yuan, to further depreciate.
"If the Chinese currency is allowed to further depreciate, that will trigger concern about the outlook for China," he said, noting that the last time the currency was allowed to depreciate there were large capital outflows from China.
Given Australia's economic ties to China – its biggest trading partner – the Australian dollar has historically shown it is very sensitive to moves in the yuan, Mr Catril said.
"If there is a sudden move in the yuan to 7 per dollar – and it already has had a big move as it is – then the market will be looking hard at that," he said. The yuan traded at 6.9178 per dollar after a 1 per cent slide, while the Australian dollar traded at US69.50¢.
Royal Bank of Canada economist Tom Porcelli said that, broadly, financial markets were concerned that the fresh trade tensions would lead to heightened uncertainty for the global economy.
If fresh doubt over trade triggered significant market turbulence, that could have a negative effect on business and consumer confidence and kick off a subsequent negative feedback loop for activity, he said. "We risk talking ourselves into a slowdown."

Overlooking the fishing port, the Castle of Rives dates from the Middle Ages and is listed as an historic building. It was the home of the Counts and Dukes of Savoy and became an industrial site after the Revolution.
The family of Sonnaz counts had the small private neo-Gothic chapel built at the end of the 19th century in the name of Saint Peter and Saint Paul.
Thonon's 19th Century hillside railway, Constructed in 1888, 'Le Funiculaire' was moved by a counter-weighting system using 11 tons of water. Today, it still links the port to the town centre, but since 1990, it has been powered by electricity.
The atmosphere of the Franc Quarter--the oldest neighbourhood in the city, protected behind the rampart walls--is palpable through the narrow, winding streets surrounding the Notre-Dame de l'Assomption Church.

The adventures of the local smugglers, in the mountains of Chablais, from the XVIIIth century to the end of 1950s, represent a real heritage nowadays.
The Rives area appeared in the 14th century during which time the Tour des Langues, towering over the fishing village, was also built. Butchers came to pay the lord their taxes in beef tongue.
In matter of accommodation, each region has its specificity. In the Alps, from a valley to the other one, from a village to another one, buildings structures and materials are different: sometimes stone replaces the wood, the chimney is not the same everywhere.
Former summer residence of Lyon's Lumière family, this sumptuous villa, built in the Renaissance-inspired French classical style, became Evian's town hall in 1927.
The first "town house" was accidentally burnt down in 1815 by the Sardinian soldiers living in it. Fifteen years later the new town hall was built by the Sardinian Mazzone.

Do you need a new website, or are you looking to improve your existing website? We can help.
We were delighted to be recommended to work with Brookside Fire Service to build their new website. They provide a wide range of fire safety related services including extinguishers, alarms, training and servicing in and around the Birmingham area. They were looking for a modern, mobile-friendly website to replace their existing online presence. Having agreed a template with a previous developer, we provided a healthy amount of customisation to ensure a design that was unique to their business and provided the impact they were looking for. To improve usability, we built a number of custom forms to handle the various types of enquiry they receive from customers and redeveloped the site structure to provide a clearer navigation.
When are aren't building websites, you will find us running our homeware and gift business, Altered Chic. We decided on a design that was clean, product-focused and would work from a user's perspective across devices. Built on WordPress with WooCommerce, this replaced a previous version which allowed product listings and order details to be ported seamlessly across to the new website. The site itself contains a number of key features needed to ensure that it worked for users and our business, most notably the use of custom forms to handle the multitude of personalisation options available on a number of products.
Delightful Decor is an independent homeware and gift shop situated in Chesterfield town centre. They were looking for a simple online presence to showcase some of the items sold in the shop, as well as to promote services they offer such as picture framing.
We put together a clean, easy to navigate site which focuses on the products and services available. We also set up basic eCommerce functionality in the form of a PayPal cart to allow customers to purchase a number of items that the shop offers online.
Aside from building the website, we also provided WordPress training and host it on our platform to provide regular maintenance and backup facilities.

[REC]2 (2009)
Published on October 31, 2021, by JPRoscoe - Posted in Movies 0
Acting: 7/10
Visuals: 6/10
Better than most
The direction the story takes lessens the scare factor
Movie Name: [REC]2
Studio: Magnolia Pictures
Genre(s): Horror
Release Date(s): October 2, 2009
Can't a zombie kid just chill in his pad without SWAT officers gunning him down?
A special force of police officers are being sent in to a quarantined apartment building on a search mission led by Dr. Owen (Jonathan Mellor) from the Ministry of Health, but Dr. Owen is not what he appears to be. Owen has special employers that need to find something inside of the building that could rock the world. Meanwhile a group of teens have also snuck into the building through the sewers and find themselves caught in horror…but someone else has survived the night and the truth of what is occurring could be shocking.
Directed by Jaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza, [REC]2 (often just written as REC 2) is a Spanish horror found-footage film. A sequel to the 2007 film [REC], the movie was released to mostly positive reviews.
I don't want you to shoot her…she adorbs
[REC] was an entertain movie, not great, but entertaining. It utilized a formula that was becoming extremely popular at the time due to The Blair Witch Project. It was creative enough to be original, but still fell into the found-footage trap of being difficult to end. [REC]2 takes off immediately where [REC] left off and provides a kind of different story while providing closure to the original film. Due to the plotlines in the film, a ******spoiler alert****** is in effect for the rest of the review.
It is hard to talk about [REC]2 without talking about the twist that does make [REC]2 different from its predecessor. There are some scenes in [REC] that allude to the twist so I don't feel it is random, though it could (and does) feel that way. It is revealed that Dr. Owen works for the church and that the "virus" is actually a form of demonic possession that is passed person to person from a source. This is a different take on the zombie picture and I admire it. It also really dooms the cast by turning the movie into a film similar to Prince of Darkness where getting out could mean death to everyone. This type of doom does cut down the fear for me in a way because I know that the characters plights are generally pointless…they're going to die and have to die to stop the spread.
Wait…walk me through this whole "I survived because…" story again, lady
The cast is largely underdeveloped due to the style of the film. The SWAT team is indistinguishable because there is a decent group and when any action happens, the cameras get fuzzy. Jonathan Mellor gives the movie some direction as the shifty religious figure trying to keep everything under wraps while the return of Manuela Velasco provides a good (and surprising) connection to the first film…which is explained by the end of the movie. The movie weirdly splits the plot between the SWAT team and a group of teens and it feels like besides being a cautionary tale (don't break into quarantined buildings), they do not serve much of a purpose since they are introduced late and barely survive half of the movie.
When is a zombie movie not a zombie movie?
One of the best parts of [REC] was the ending which introduced the source of the infection in a creepy, night-footage sequence before the abrupt ending. I had hoped that [REC]2 would feature the nightmarish monster more, but every time the SWAT team reaches the location where she was hiding, she never showed up. Eventually this was explained, but I also felt I was ripped off from a cool monster. The movie supplements the monster with some creepy zombie kids, but the original monster needed more screentime.
I admire that they tried to change the themes of the movie and take [REC]2 in a different direction, but in some ways, I would have rather stuck with the original (though generic) zombie format). In addition to that the military people make some really, really stupid moves. This combines with some dangling plotlines, and [REC]2 comes off as not as memorable or fun as the original. [REC]2 was followed by [REC]3: Genesis in 2012.

Jubal Brown smirked. Once the men were on their own mounts and the company moving again, Fox turned in beside Tanner. " "Mules are used in the mines to haul the ore carts. " He turned his head to look at her. " "Sorry," she said with a smile. " But she had been, a little. And that wasn't fair. None of the men were the greenhorns Fox had expected, and that included Tanner. It hadn't been necessary to instruct anyone how to dig a fire pit or how to fold a bedroll efficiently. Even Tanner took his turn cooking and served up a meal as competently as Fox could have done.
Hiding a smile, Fox stayed beside him. " "Might as well. " Meaning the law was after him. Fox nodded, wondering how old he was. Twenty? Twenty-five? Some men weren't destined to die of old age. "Do you really believe it somehow demeans you to assist Mr. " "It that were true, he would agree. But it isn't true. Mr. Hernandez and I both believe he can handle the job. The thing is, we're a team here, Brown. " "I'm doing it, ain't I? " "Because I'm sorry you made me punch you," Fox said, fixing her gaze ahead.
He didn't either. The only reason he hadn't made the same suggestion was that he'd thought she might object. In that uncanny way she had, she seemed to read his thoughts again. "I pride myself on being a practical woman, Mr. " A thin smile and a shrug finished her declaration. " It was possible he even knew another one besides Fox. Working together they dragged the two thieves away from the campsite. If he found a shovel in camp, Tanner would bury them in the morning. While Tanner brought their horses into the light and removed the saddles and bags, Fox returned to rummaging through the thieves' goods.

Q: How to compile and use adb on Ubuntu 12.04? I am following Google's instructions
to build Android on Ubuntu 12.04.
Somewhere on https://source.android.com/source/building-devices.html it says

If you don't already have those tools, fastboot and adb can be built
  with the regular build system. Follow the instructions on the page
  about Building and Running, and replace the main make command with

$ make fastboot adb

After using that command, the compile seems to complete fine. I then found an adb binary at
 <path>/out/target/product/generic/system/bin/adb

However, when I try to use that I get an "cannot execute binary file" error.
Could it be that it was compiled for the wrong architecture? Do I need to configure something (e.g., with lunch) before the "make fastboot adb"?

A: Found the solution myself. I was looking at the wrong binary. The right one was at
<path>/out/host/linux-x86/obj/EXECUTABLES/adb_intermediates/adb

Now
adb devices

produces a list of devices (with one entry for the phone).

Q: How to check if a RxJS Observable contains a string in Angular2? I am new to Angular2 and Observable, I want to check if a Observable getRoles which is of type Observable<string[]> contains a string.
public hasRole(name: string): boolean {
    // getRoles is of type Observable<string[]>
    let getRoles = this.tokenService.getTokenInformation().map(element => element.roles);

    if (/* check if name is inside of getRoles */) {
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}

A: Observables are asynchronous so you can't use let getRoles = ...map(...). The map() method is not executed on an array but on an Observable which is always asynchronous.
So proper way to do it could be (I didn't test this code):
public hasRole(name: string): Observable {
    return this.tokenService.getTokenInformation()
        .map(element => element.roles)
        .first(roles => roles.indexOf(name) !== -1);
}

Operator first() emits an error when no matching element was found when the source completed (when we iterated all roles).
Then use this method like:
hasRole('my-role').subscribe(
    role => console.log("has role"),
    error => console.log("doesn't have role"),
)

Edit:
This converts everything to only true or false values. See doc for first() operator what are these argument. Then I used map() to force convert everything into boolean.
public hasRole(name: string): Observable {
    return this.tokenService.getTokenInformation()
        .map(element => element.roles)
        .first(roles => roles.indexOf(name) !== -1, undefined, false)
        .map(val => !!val);
}

A Year After NPR Ends Commenting, No Plans To Revive It : NPR Public Editor Some readers still pine for a comments section but NPR is focused elsewhere.
The onslaught of complaints from NPR.org users who wanted to be able to comment has died down, but a few diehard fans continue to ask if NPR has plans to reintroduce the feature in some form. The current answer? No.
"I don't foresee us, at this point, adding comments on the site," said Sara Kehaulani Goo, NPR's interim managing editor for digital news. Executives looked at many of the newer options out there, she said, "but we just haven't seen one that doesn't raise the same problems as before," including the need to add more employees to moderate the comments.
In the year since NPR's decision, other news sites have also ended online comments, while The New York Times, for one, recently expanded the number of stories that allow readers to leave comments, thanks to new technology.
NPR has added or soon will add other less-extensive options for readers to engage with NPR.
A closed (users must ask to join) NPR Facebook group devoted to the topic Your Money and Your Life, which includes participation and monitoring by NPR staff, continues to grow, Goo said, and the conversations there have remained civil. Encouraged by that, NPR plans to introduce more such topic-driven groups, she said, although she declined to provide details for the moment.
NPR has also experimented with ways to invite the audience to suggest stories and give input into stories in the works. A joint investigative story with ProPublica on maternal mortality, which NPR promoted on its social media channels, generated responses from more than 3,700 people who filled out the "I almost died" form; one of them ended up in a subsequent story.
Listeners have been able to suggest story ideas at the Goats and Soda blog for several months and, more recently, have been offered the opportunity to do so at the multimedia science blog Skunk Bear.
These and other initiatives with which NPR is experimenting "show more promise and potential to meaningfully engage" with NPR's audience, Goo said.
As for the space following a story that was previously used for comments, it now often includes a place for readers to sign up for a related newsletter or podcast. That has led to 500,000 new email subscriptions (about 42,000 per month) and almost 100,000 podcast subscriptions, Goo said. That's good for NPR, and perhaps a better use of the space, but it is largely one-way communication.
The other experiments are not a one-to-one replacement for comments, either, and I don't expect those initiatives will satisfy those who want to see commenting returned to NPR.org, given that many of them say they simply want to criticize NPR's reporting, or find community with other commenters around politics, in particular. For now, however, those NPR readers will need to use social media, or find an NPR member station site that still accepts comments (many do, as do Here and Now and two shows NPR distributes, On Point and 1A, which also invite listener calls and email).

The FireBreak™ is a low-cost, disposable, explosively-driven wire cutter, typically used for cutting command wires without causing collateral damage. Used by EOD Operators actively in Afghanistan, the FireBreak™ is one of the most simple wire cutting products on the market, and is highly portable. It can take a standard detonator and does not require any specialist ammunition.
FireBreak™ is unique in its speed when fired. The FireBreak™ acts faster than a detonator can actuate, therefore, reducing the risk to the operator and the risk of detonating the device.

Title: Issues and challenges of public service procurement in China: a collaborative governance perspective
Authors: Bing Ran; Huiting Qi
Addresses: School of Public Affairs, Penn State Harrisburg, 777 W. Harrisburg Pike, Middletown, PA 17057, USA ' School of Public Affairs, Penn State Harrisburg, 777 W. Harrisburg Pike, Middletown, PA 17057, USA
Abstract: As a form of collaborative governance, government procurement of public services from non-governmental organisations (NGOs) has become a major channel for public service delivery. Different from the relative mature practices of public service procurement in Western countries, China is attempting to adopt this mechanism in recent years, calling for more research in sense making the issues and challenges in the procurement process. This paper discusses six major issues in Chinese Government procurement of public services from the perspective of collaborative governance theory, analyses the reasons that lead to these six challenges, and proposes some important solutions to these issues.
Keywords: collaborative governance; non-governmental organisations; NGOs; public service procurement; China; public procurement; public services; government procurement; public service delivery.

"I had the most amazing time. Two of us worked together on each other and also had practise sessions with other bodies over two days. Milena was a joy to work with, patient, easy going and very informative. The studio at the bottom of her garden from where the course was run, was a beautiful, calm, space in which to spend our time.
I felt the course was just the right pace to absorb all the new information and came away feeling extremely enthused and cannot wait to try out this new modality." Helen W.
"It was a pleasure spending 3 days with Milena in her purpose built studio with my fellow ashiatsu student. Milena's approach is CALM. She has created an environment and formed techniques in her professional, intuitive, calm style, and the experience and sensations speak for themselves. If you have not tried ashiatsu- DO.
I would recommend this ashiatsu course whole heartedly to those who want to build on existing massage skills. The course is spread over 3 days and the majority is practical. The teaching pace and Milena's delivery are good.
Practicing on each other, and with additional people volunteering, I was able to experience giving ashiatsu massage to different body types, in a short space of time.
The training of course is tiring, as with learning any new skill, but I came away uplifted looking forward to putting into practice what I'd learnt. Milena is supportive and makes herself available to answer questions and give advice if needed. I thoroughly recommend this course." Aryan C.
"I must say i had the most amazing time. Two of us worked together on each other and also had practise sessions with other bodies over two days. Milena was a joy to work with, patient, easy going and very informative. The studio at the bottom of her garden from where the course was run, was a beautiful, calm, space in which to spend our time.
"So glad I found you Milena. I have learned so much from the Ashiatsu course and cannot wait to start practicing. Thank you for your tuition, advice, your patience and for being closer than California My feet are raring to go !" Silvia P.
"Milena is a lovely therapist and very thorough with her training. Her feet have a great feeling on your muscles just perfect pressure. I have just finished a 3 day course of Ashiatsu training and am so glad I found this place. It is amazing and tranquil. Would have no hesitation in recommending mk therapies for treatments and training. Thank you Milena." Sam F.


The New England Society insignia features the Mayflower, and holly and holly berries representing good will, defense, happiness, and foresight. This bronze and enamel medal was struck for the Society in the late 19th century.
The New England Society in the City of New York (NES) was founded on May 6, 1805, and is one of the oldest social and charitable organizations in the United States. Established to promote "friendship, charity, and mutual assistance" among and on behalf of New Englanders living in New York, NES celebrates New England heritage through philanthropic outreach, social events and cultural activities. Our charitable focus is education. The NES Scholarship Program assists New York City students at New England colleges and universities. Another signature program is the annual New England Society Book Awards, which recognize books of merit that honor New England and its culture.
When the New England Society was founded, Thomas Jefferson was President and the population of New York was 75,770. In the decades following the American Revolution, there was a major migration of New Englanders to New York. Original founders and members of NES were inspired to band together by a love for their native New England and a desire to maintain its traditions and promote its culture.
Since our founding, our members have included notable individuals from law, politics, finance, industry, journalism, education, the arts and philanthropy. Many early members were involved in shaping and building New York City, from Horace Greeley, editor, writer and founder of the New York Tribune, to architect Richard Morris Hunt, who designed many city mansions and institutions. NES leaders included titans of banking and industry, such as financier and philanthropist J.P. Morgan (26th president), Moses Grinnell, builder of the world's fastest clipper ship (8th president), and William E. Dodge, Jr., co-founder of one of the largest copper mining companies in the world (31st president).
The first Annual Dinner was held on December 21, 1805, at the City Hotel on Broadway with 154 Members in attendance. A tradition began that evening of inviting well-known personalities of the day to attend the Dinner and deliver addresses of interest to NES members. A review of the roster of speakers who attended these Annual Dinners reflects the American historical narrative: from Commander Stephen Decatur, War of 1812 hero, and statesman Daniel Webster, to Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens). Fortunately, many of these orations are preserved in the NES Archives, including Mark Twain's speech, The Weather of New England. Another tradition that began on that festive December 21st evening was that of fine dining and toasts. At that first Annual Dinner, 18 toasts were made with acknowledgement and thanks to New England, the City of Leyden, the State of New York, John Winthrop, John Smith and George Washington, among others.

NES also has a long, distinguished history of helping those in need. As early as 1806, we started a robust philanthropic program that encompassed social services such as distributing firewood for cooking and heating to those in need, providing annuities to impoverished widows and funding special projects created by inventive New England minds. Over the years, NES also responded to those suffering from natural disasters, providing funds for relief in the wake of the severe Vermont floods in 1927. In 1945, NES focused its philanthropic outreach on education and launched the College Students' Loaning Fund which provided emergency loans to students at New England colleges and universities. Over 75,000 students received loans during the program's 45-year period. In 1953, we expanded our educational outreach and launched the NES Scholarship Program to help fund New York City students attending colleges and universities in New England. NES scholarships reduce student loan liability, lend confidence and provide a sense of achievement to deserving young scholars. Though our charitable initiatives have evolved over time, the underlying mission of assistance has remained constant.
Since 19th century, we have made many cultural contributions both locally and in New England.
In 1868, a bust of the statesman, politician, orator and New Hampshire native Daniel Webster by sculptor Thomas Ball was presented to the Society by a member of NES. The bust is now on permanent loan to Dartmouth College. The work was so well received that Ball went on to create a full-figure statuette of Webster. In 1870, Gordon W. Burnham commissioned a larger-than-life sized version of this statuette for Central Park. The statue is currently installed on West Drive near the West 72nd Street entrance.
In 1885, NES commissioned a bronze statue of a pilgrim by noted sculptor John Quincy Adams Ward, which was titled The Pilgrim and erected near the East 72nd Street entrance of Central Park. It is from this sculpture that Pilgrim Hill gets its name. On June 4, 1985, a rededication ceremony was held to mark the statue's centennial.
In 1920, NES donated $50,000 to build a fireproof portico for Pilgrim Hall (U.S. National Register of Historic Places) in Plymouth, Mass. The Hall houses the Pilgrim Hall Museum, the oldest continuously operated public museum in the country, having opened its doors in 1824.
In 1933, NES funded the construction of a replica of the Aptucxet Trading Post in Bourne, Mass., on Cape Cod. The post was established in 1627 to encourage trade among the Pilgrims and Native Americans.
And most recently, NES launched the New England Society Book Awards to recognize books that honor and promote New England culture.
Also of interest to NES is honoring the New England spirit. In 1952, NES established the Reginald T. Townsend Award, named for its then President, to recognize outstanding achievement representing the finest qualities of the New England character. Award recipients have represented excellence in a wide range of fields, from the sciences, academia and letters, to politics and the arts. Honorees include John Davis Lodge, Kingman Brewster, George Plimpton, Harrison E. Salisbury, Walter Cronkite, Charles Osgood, and most recently Leigh Keno and Leslie Keno.
Proud of its rich history, NES preserves and enriches the New England heritage for the New York community and beyond.

Nirmala Sitharaman special Covid-19 package: Prices of essential commodities to be deregulated
The finance ministry on Friday announced an amendment in the Essential Commodities Act to deregulate prices for foodstuff including cereals, edible oils, oilseeds, pulses, onions, and potatoes. Nirmala Sitharaman said the move was aimed for better price realisation for farmers and to attract investments in the sector.
The amendment essentially means that the prices of the above staple agricultural produce will now be governed by the market forces. Sitharaman said that government intervention will only be done in emergency situations like a dramatic price hike or any crisis.
Under the act, the government directs agencies for maintenance of stock limits of essentials so that prices of these commodities can be regulated, but that is all set to change.
"Stock limit to be imposed under very very exceptional circumstances like national calamities, famine with surge in prices," a finance ministry presentation said on Friday.
It added that 'no such stock limit shall apply to processors or value chain participant, subject to their installed capacity or to any exporter subject to the export demand."
The government reasoned that the EC Act was enacted in the days of scarcity and deregulation was meant to attract better prices, investment and to make farm sector competitive.
The above announcement is in keeping with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's promise to bring in broad and sweeping agriculture reforms to transform the farm sector and unlock its true economic potential with special emphasis on strengthening the supply chain.
In addition to the amendment to the Essentials Commodity Act, the finance minister unleashed an eight-point-reform programme aimed to boost the self-sufficient India vision under the Rs 20,000 crore Atma Nirbhar Bharat special economic package, being announced in the wake of the disaster unleashed by coronavirus pandemic.

Favorite Holiday Songs #s 1, 2, and 3 – Merry Christmas Everybody!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone that reads this blog. I wish you all the best!
To close out our favorite Holiday Songs series I have two special Holiday Greetings from the southern US where I live. First up is Christmas in Dixie which was written and recorded by the group Alabama. For those of you that are not from the US, Dixie refers to the southern states in the US.
Next up is a great song by Jimmy Buffet called Merry Christmas Alabama.
Our final post in this series is my all time favorite Holiday song, I Believe In Father Christmas by Greg Lake one of the very best voices in rock music. Christmas, as it is celebrated today, has become overly commercialized in my opinion and I think this song is a wonderful protest against what Christmas has become. As always…..let me know what you think!
I have a great one today from King Crimson for our last "dream" inspired Long Song Tuesday post. This is an amazing song from King Crimson's first album and I think you will really enjoy it. Greg Lake is one of my favorite rock vocalist and he does a fine job on The Dream portion of this one. Let's listen…..
Here is what Wikipedia has to say about the song.
"Moonchild" is the fourth track from the British progressive rock band King Crimson's debut album, In the Court of the Crimson King.
The first section, "The Dream", is a mellotron-driven ballad, but after two and a half minutes it changes to a completely free-form instrumental improvisation by the band (called "The Illusion"), which lasts until the end of the song. Robert Fripp plays a snippet of "The Surrey With the Fringe on Top" from Rodgers & Hammerstein's "Oklahoma!" in this section. In the 2009 remastered version of the album, the track was edited by Fripp and colleague Steven Wilson, with around 2.30 minutes of the original improvisation (the reference by Fripp to "Surrey With the Fringe on Top") being removed. This issue of the album does, however, offer the original version as a bonus track.

Making your mortgage payment is a regular part of your monthly routine. However, the breakdown of that payment changes almost every month. Part of your payment goes to principal, some to interest, and you may also be paying for private mortgage insurance or an escrow account. Knowing where your money is going can allow you to better understand the status of your mortgage.
The principal of your loan is the amount that you borrowed. This is the most important portion of your mortgage payment, as paying down the principal is how you eventually pay off your mortgage. If you decide to make additional mortgage payments in order to pay off the loan faster, these extra payments will be applied directly to the principal balance and will reduce the term of the loan and the overall interest you pay.
In conjunction with principal payments, you are also making monthly interest payments. The bank calculates the amount of interest for the month based on the outstanding principal balance, so as the term of the mortgage proceeds, the ratio between the principal and interest amounts shifts in each payment. At the beginning of the mortgage, your payment goes mostly to interest because the principal balance is high. As the principal balance is paid off, the interest payment goes down.
If your mortgage was taken out with a high loan-to-value ratio, meaning that the loan amount was more than 80 percent of the value of the home, the lender may require that you carry private mortgage insurance. Because high loan-to-value ratios are risky to lenders, they can require this type of insurance to protect them in the event that borrowers default on their mortgages. Your PMI payment is not typically a large portion of your mortgage payment, but the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco notes that you have the right to request cancellation of PMI once the principal reaches 80 percent of the original purchase price or appraised value.
Depending on your lender and your preferences, you may also pay into an escrow account every month. If part of your mortgage payment goes into escrow, the bank will hold this money for the payment of property taxes and insurance. This setup allows you to pay these charges on a monthly basis instead of as a lump sum once a year. Another benefit is that the bank will handle the tax and insurance payments for you. While an escrow account adds to the monthly mortgage payment, it may be a useful way to budget for the yearly expenses of owning your home.
Before making a decision about your mortgage, such as whether to refinance, ask the lender for a breakdown of your current monthly payment. While refinancing might lower your payments overall, remember that payments on a new loan will be mostly interest--and this can increase the time it takes to pay off your loan and its costs. Obtaining information about your payments from the lender will also help you monitor your loan and determine when you can eliminate PMI.

We have a daughter. Our third daughter.
Just 68 days after sending our completed dossier to our agency we saw our daughters face on the waiting child list.
No, it wasn't the adoption "fairy tale" we had imagined in our heads, it wasn't the long anticipated phone ringing, it wasn't a suspenseful wait in front of a computer waiting for pictures to pop up. It was so much more. It was a phone call from a friend saying they thought our daughter might be on the waiting child list. A friend I've never met. A long drive home anticipating checking that list just to see if maybe. It was a week of praying for a little girl a world away. Asking God if we were the family He had for her. It was a week of family discussions. Once we pulled her file she had her daddy wrapped. Her story made her mama weep, it made her daddy want to hold her tight. We were smitten. This was our girl.
This is a story only God could write. As it unfolds it only becomes more clear that this little girl was meant for our family.
We are thrilled beyond words that God would allow us to parent this precious girl. That we get to be her family.
We are blessed. Beyond measure.
Thank you to each one of you that have prayed for us, supported us, and continue to cover us in this journey.
So so so so so SOOOOOO excited for you!!! WOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
