Trust the ladies of Las Vegas to show you a good time.
Meet the Vegas Babes—lusty ladies eager for new carnal adventures. Technically virginal Francesca celebrates her wedding eve with a scandalous performance at a Vegas strip club. Classy Ivy League grad Laura discovers her inner slut with the help of an entire Scottish rugby team. Red-headed Annie and her well-hung accountant hubby provide a sex-drenched Sin City education for their gorgeous coed neighbors. Pure, untouched Patricia wages a guerrilla campaign against kink but finds herself captive in a Dom's web of desire.
Then there's hot mama Chantal, elegant Domme Professor Inez, bossy MILF Giulia, voluptuous she-male Rosa, dirty little old lady Althea —you don't have to be sweet young thing to be a babe! Venture into a world of exuberant sexual excess and open-minded romance, where no fantasy is too wild to explore and everyone gets a thrilling, sticky happy ending.
This boxed set collects the complete five book Vegas Babes series, and includes a lively introduction by Larry Archer, creator of The Fox's Den.
!!!!!!
Never underestimate the power of a horny bride.
Francesca Torelli's tycoon father is throwing a lavish Las Vegas wedding for his only child. Her fiancé Jake and his buddies set out to explore the fleshpots of Sin City. Meanwhile, Fran and her bridesmaids are stuck at the resort under the watchful eye of her stern Aunt Giulia. Frustrated, the young women hatch a plan to escape their chaperone and have some fun of their own at The Fox's Den.
More Brides in Vegas
Tying the knot — with no strings attached!
Annie and Ted are getting married, and they've invited all their friends from The Fox's Den Amateur Night to the party. Taking over a vintage eighties motel with a courtyard and pool for their private function, the bride and groom expect a certain amount of carnal excess. Still, nobody's prepared for the sexual free-for-all that breaks loose. As the wedding guests act out their secret fantasies, they push the limits of both lust and love. Finally arriving at the altar, after an exhausting, arousing twenty four hours, Annie and Ted realize that tying the knot doesn't have to mean tying themselves down.
Sin City Sweethearts
Welcome to Las Vegas—leave your inhibitions at the city limits.
Annie and Ted are typical newlyweds—just a bit more open-minded about sex than most couples. When a pair of gorgeous, innocent undergraduates moves in to the apartment downstairs, Ted and Annie decide to educate the sisters about the carnal delights of Sin City. Marcie and Maddy prove to be apt pupils, eager to indulge their voracious appetites with an ever-widening circle of intimate partners.
Valentine's Visit: Four-way Friend Swap
Jake and Fran and Ted and Annie celebrate Valentine's Day—Vegas style!
When Jake and Fran are invited to Las Vegas spend Valentine's weekend with Jake's old friend Ted and his curvaceous ginger-haired wife, they're not sure what to expect. The last time they saw Ted and Annie, at the Vegas couple's pre-wedding stag party, the four of them had ended up in bed together. But maybe that was just a fluke. There's only one way to find out.
Babes in Bondage
It's 9 PM in Vegas. Do you know your safe word?
When an anti-porn terrorist group shuts down the Sin City Fetish Fair, Larry Archer offers The Fox's Den as an alternative venue. Plans for the Den's first Kink Night quickly take shape.
Virginal Patricia Hastings leads the Anti-Porn Brigade in their fight against filth. She's determined to destroy the anything-but-vanilla strip club – if only she can resist her own secret craving for surrender.

Jungle Beauty Goddesses Series: Pretty Blue, Aquatic Ball, Dirty Ball by C. G. Sturges
author giveaways, C. G. Sturgis, erotica, fantasy, rafflecopter giveaways
GENRE: Fantasy, Erotica
Jungle Beauty Goddesses "Pretty Blue" Book 1
If you were given planet Earth as a gift to develop its life forms—would the world be a better place than it is today? What would your primary expectation and goal be for each human? Would you give them free will or plan their destiny? Would you demand that your humans worship you as their creator? Would you be available to assuage their every desire; and acquiesce to their demands, prayers, and wishes? Would you grow to resent them for living the life you imagined?
The Jungle Beauty Goddesses were free-spirited goddesses who enjoyed their freedom as the youngest children—and the last deities born to their parents—creators of the universe. Per the family tradition of being awarded a planet, the septuplets were given planet Earth as a gift for their birthday. Their siblings, also gods and goddesses of the universe since the beginning of time, warn them about the challenges of selflessness, power, worship, and divine duty.
The seven sisters struggle to maintain their own freedom as limitless beings, while sibling rivalry makes it difficult to accept their collective duty to fulfill the family obligation to the deity-hood as creators for planets.
The entire universe threatens to collapse due to their negligence and disobedience. They question the boundaries of their divine powers as they ponder whether it is possible to mold a being to be superior to its creator.
Jungle Beauty Goddesses "Aquatic Ball" Book 2
Sometimes your worst nightmare is having everything you ever wanted. Upon visiting planet Earth, the Jungle Beauty Goddesses discover that the life forms they created are in danger of extinction, and an unforeseen dominant species has positioned itself to take dominion.
Unprepared and disillusioned about how to access their highest vibrational frequency; the Jungle Beauty Goddesses face their own demise.
The only way they can save themselves, their planet, and ultimately the universe is by managing to align with their deity powers and the wisdom of their highest selves in the face of their worst fears, disappointments, and betrayals.
Jungle Beauty Goddesses "Dirty Ball" Book 3
If you had the power to make anyone in the world fall in love with you—would you? Jungle Beauty Goddess Afar revokes her deity vows and takes her destiny into her own hands by participating in the life she was born to create for others.
Afar embraces the deepest, darkest nuances of her shadow self with brutality, dignity, and integrity. She brazenly unleashes the murkiest qualities of the human condition and leaves the chaos for her unsuspecting sisters to clean up or suffer the consequences of losing the planet given to them by their parents–creators of the universe.
Jungle Beauty Goddess Afar's actions give a new meaning to the saying, "Hell has no fury like a woman scorned."
We are the natural evolutionary heirs to planet earth bequeathed by the hands of destiny. Planet earth is rapidly becoming an aquatic planet designed for life forms which can adapt to a water-only environment. If you sign planet Earth over to us for safekeeping—you will never have to worry about this planet being selfishly exploited for its resources. You will never have to come here again and you are free to live your life as you please.
With the deepest Respect and Love,
Merlady Jophiel
By signing this document, you are collectively agreeing to give Planet Earth to Mermaids werladyJophiel
Merlady Gabrielle
More human males had begun to tell stories to sailors, pirates, and fishermen on how to capture Mermaids for sex, but they would tell their wives and girlfriends that they were going on long fishing and exploration trips. Human males were really scouring the oceans and seas in search of sexual favors by hapless mermaids.
One night three large ships of human males surrounded seven mermaids and captured them with their large fishing nets. Humans had not yet developed mobile lights for their boats, so they depended heavily on the moon's light for travel across the oceans and seas at night. The unclad Mermaids were tangled in the fishing nets fighting and screaming ferociously to free themselves while the human males laughed, joked, and made derogatory catcalls about the size of their breasts. On this particular night, the full bright moon, turned completely black, in an instance. The pitch-black night hid the mermaids from the sailors' view and they were able to safely swim back into the deep waters.
After that night, the Mermaids developed a relationship with the moon man. He advised the mermaids of the best times to travel above water and numerous other ways to protect themselves from human males. The ceremony tonight is the monthly ritual that we dedicate to the moon for saving our lives."

His job is to drive fast. Hers is to put the brakes on him. When sparks fly, will love cross the finish line?
AJ Ryan is a publicity nightmare. After a questionable photo surfaces and his biggest sponsor threatens to pull out, the NASCAR champion admits it might be time to hit the brakes. Thankfully, his new no-nonsense image consultant knows just where to start… too bad she revs his engine so loudly he can barely think straight.
Ella Fisher's career is a welcome distraction from her poor taste in men. Fresh off another easily avoidable heartbreak, rehabbing AJ's career is just the diversion she needs. But when the pulse-pounding client actually listens to her advice, Ella wonders if there's more to the man behind the hot mess.
When Ella is granted guardianship of three boisterous children under the misconception that she and AJ are a couple, AJ surprises her by going along with the charade. Before long they find themselves in a make-shift family that feels more real than pretend.
As their professional relationship takes a hard turn for the personal, a single overheard conversation could make it all go up in flames. Will Ella and AJ's romance hit the wall, or will love take the checkered flag?
The Perfect Lap is the second standalone novel in the Racing Hearts of Serenity romance series. If you like bad boys with a heart of gold, strong women, and love stories with a new age twist, then you'll adore Sedona Hutton's fun, sexy tale.
"I bet you have a beautiful smile," he drawled, then lowered his mouth to hers.
She should have pulled away—she didn't know this man from Adam. But everything inside her protested. After gazing into each other's eyes, she felt like she knew him intimately.
His lips were warm and tingly, his kiss pure perfection…and he drew back way too quickly. He blinked those deep blue eyes and gave her a lazy grin. "I knew it." He rubbed the pad of his thumb over her lower lip. "Beautiful."
That's when she realized she was smiling.
He rose, and she gave him a quick once over, taking in the sexy stubble on his face, the taut muscles of his chest, his lean physique. As good old-fashioned lust rolled through her like a quick-moving thunderstorm, she silently bemoaned her situation. This was a hell of a time to have a newly implemented man-ban.
"Keep smiling." Stuffing his hands in his pockets, he winked at her. "It suits you," he added in that low, sexy drawl. Then he sauntered off.
Her breath caught as she spun around to gape at him. He'd just kissed her and now he was leaving? She contemplated calling him back, then reconsidered. She had other fish to fry.
Even so, she couldn't stop herself from tracking his every move as he swaggered toward the party, his backside looking every bit as fine as the rest of him. Pressing a hand to her chest, she let out a slow exhale. Even though she was one-hundred percent committed to her man-ban, she could admit—at least to herself—that the sexy, charming stranger had intrigued her.
Author Sedona Hutton finds inspiration in the beautiful Smoky Mountains of Tennessee, where she lives with her husband and curly-coated retriever. In addition to writing, she's a Reiki Master and a certified Chopra Center Meditation instructor.

Phoebe needs a second chance at life.
In the aftermath of the devastation from her failed marriage, Phoebe returns to her old stomping grounds to open her own bed and breakfast. Starting over is the bravest thing she's ever done – or so she thinks. But opening her front door to find a blast from her past on her front porch changes all that. The teenager she'd once known has become a jaw-dropping, dominant man in his prime.
He wasn't looking for a relationship until she blazed back into his life.
Graham runs his own construction business, remodeling homes, and building brand new ones. When his buddy gives him a lead on a new project, he never expects to run into Phoebe, the woman he shared a single kiss with eons ago. Nor is he prepared for the Dominant in him to stake his claim before the end of their first meeting. He wanted her in high school but there had been too wide a gulf separating them. Now, Graham will stop at nothing until he makes her his. But there are larger forces at work, attempting to tear them apart.
When everything Phoebe holds dear becomes a target, Graham will risk it all for the one woman he knows he can never live without.
Publisher's Note: This steamy second chance romance contains elements of power exchange. While it is the second in the Crescent City Kings series, it can be enjoyed independently.
She opened the door to the small groundskeeper's house, which was really nothing more than a glorified pool house. It was four hundred square feet, little more than a studio apartment in size. The only thing enclosed was the tiny bathroom. But she had spruced her home up as best she could, painting the walls a fresh, light powder blue and had put her bed near the window to catch the early morning sunlight.
There was room enough for her couch and a small television, plus the eat in kitchen with her small, pine dinette set. She'd painted the walnut cabinets an eggshell white, giving the place a farmhouse look. Daisy made a beeline toward her water bowl and dog bed up against the far wall.
"This is where you're living?" Graham studied her place without judgement, his gaze assessing the space.
It might not be much, but it was home and, best of all, hers. "Yep. I don't need a lot of space or things. Most days I will be over at the main house from sunup until sundown, at least until I can afford to hire help."
If things worked the way she hoped, she would have a hostess and servers for the dining room. Phoebe already had her eye on a waitress at the nightclub to entice to come work for her. While she was confident in her abilities, it would be a juggling act to cook and serve meals in the dining room at the same time. At first, there was no way around it and she would be forced to manage it somehow. But she hoped this place would be successful enough that a few months after opening, she would have the available budget to hire help.
"Have a seat. Would you like a cup of coffee? And I have some croissants on the table there, just baked them fresh this morning," she said, rather thrilled to be playing hostess. Phoebe enjoyed cooking and had found early in life that she had a knack for it. But this was a new croissant recipe she was testing out, and she was interested to see Graham's reaction.
"It's barely ten." He smiled as he sat, facing her and the kitchen.
"I tend to be an early riser. Always have been."
"I'm the same."
Using one of her good mugs, she served him a steaming cup of coffee, then brought over all the accoutrements on a wooden tray: sugar, cream, and sugar substitute. She noted that he took his coffee black as night, but he slathered the croissant with her homemade jam.
"Mmm, oh my god." He groaned, and the sound pinged low in her belly. "You made this?" Graham asked, looking at her and then back at the pastry as if he had died and gone to heaven.
"Yep." She expelled a breath. The new recipe appeared to be a hit. Graham ate the croissant with relish. Pinpricks of satisfaction flowed through Phoebe. She slid into the seat across from him as he put a thumb covered in jam into his mouth and sucked it off.
Her girly bits throbbed at an unexpected blast of desire that struck her system like a thunder bolt. It had been an unconsciously sexy move on his part. It wasn't like he was attempting to get into her pants. He was here to earn a potential payday, and work. Yet when he glanced her way with sublime satisfaction in his eyes, across the small expanse of her pine dinette table, her insides quivered—and not with fear.
She needed to shut the gate closed and seal it tight. Phoebe didn't do relationships anymore. That wasn't in her plans for her life any longer.
No matter how sinful the packaging happened to be.

And forgot. Sinners' Opera will soon be in audio. We made an offer to a narrator, and he accepted. He has a very elegant and posh British (for Morgan) and does an American accent for Isabeau. His voice is super smooth and sexy. I can't wait.
And I forgot a second thing! Sinners' won Best Other Novel in the Critters' Readers' Poll!! Thanks to all those lovely folks who voted. Congratulate yourself. We did it!


Ask any "patriot" what is great about the United States and they will use the word freedom. If you ask them why we are at war, they will say to protect our freedom. If you ask what our country was founded on, they will tell you Christianity…and freedom. Is there any truth to that?
There are attempts to measure freedom. Heritage foundation indexes "economic freedom," placing the U.S. at 18. This is behind Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, and a large swath of the EU. Cato Institute also ranks our "economic freedom" at 17th, while ranking our "personal freedom" at 24th. If one points this out, we are reminded that "they can't own guns," which is a topic for another article. Europeans have expressed amazement at America's obsession with freedom while having the highest prison population on earth. Were we really free at some point and our country has collapsed until we've reached this point? This article will explore what freedom is in the United States and if we really have any. Due to the scope of the article, it will be broken into sections.
Over this series, we have shown that America was in no way founded on freedom, at least not universal freedom. Our country was founded as one more system for a small minority to thrive at the expense of others. One may argue that the framework provided the growth of rights for minorities over time, but many civil rights milestones occurred in Europe before the U.S. The freedoms we enjoy today were forced into place by men and women who stood up to the "America Way" and forced change. Susan B Anthony, Rosa Parks, Harvey Milk and others like them deserve far more attention and respect for their contributions to freedom than the average person realizes. Let us never forget them and honor them by fighting against the people and systems in place that hold any of us back.

Transportation, agriculture, and companionship—Humans are significantly affected by interactions with animals. Our modern lifestyles would not be possible without the domestication of animals. When did humans start to have pets? Why did pets and other domestic animals begin to matter? How were they used? These are questions that archaeologists ask themselves and have done their best to answer.
desired traits, causing dramatic changes in the physical structure of animals. Different societies selected for different characteristics, including fur color, ability, and shape. The same qualities are found in cat remains, though cats are estimated to be domesticated around 7500 B.C. While most would like to hear more about the exciting shift of our furry friends from wild hunter to companion, the most striking information regarding the domestication of animals is looking at farm domestication and how groups of people shifted from nomadic bands to pastoral, sedentary groups.
The first animals thought to be domesticated for agricultural endeavors were sheep between 11000 and 9000 B.C., and goats were domesticated shortly after. These animals were used for meat, milk, and fur. Bands of people at this time were still primarily nomadic. Remains for sheep were first found in the Middle East, where there are high proportions of bones of one year old sheep. Dating for the domestication of these animals is possible by looking at the remains of those who lived in the area and finding when human beings were able to process lactose. There was an incredible advantage for those who could digest lactose because of high amounts of calories available from milk. Evidence is also available about milk use through 7000 year old perforated pottery that was used for cheese production. Use of this type of potter was proven by experimental archaeology and chemical analysis of the clay, which found milk fats inside the pottery.
Pigs and cattle were domesticated slightly later, around 7000 B.C., but these remains are usually found with societies that were more sedentary.
One of the main reasons to domesticate animals is because there is always a constant, readily available, and reliable source of food. If one goes hunting, there are no chances that he or she will return with meat for his or her community. If one hunts too many animals, the food will spoil, and the food will be wasted. Domesticating animals also provided for suitable manure for farming, hides and wool for coats, and bones for tools. Through the domestication of animals, the concept of staying in one place was a viable option for people. The need to constantly move for a steady supply of food was outdated, and we see the rise of civilizations and larger social organizations as animals domestication begins.

Who wouldn't want to hear more about our furry friends? The domestication of dogs provided humans with more than companionship. Dogs helped to consume food waste that would attract other, less friendly, animals. Dogs provided security by responding to intruders and helped provide food through tracking and herding skills. In lean times, dogs would be consumed. Some cultures consumed dogs only during important rituals. Our connection to these furry friends is one with a long and complex past.
The domestication of animals did dramatically shift the lifestyle of humans from hunter gatherers to farmers. As groups of people began to settle in areas, populations rose and animals that were initially available for hunting began to scatter. Thus, humans could not readily go back to the nomadic lifestyle even if they wanted to. Therefore, the need to grow their own food was greater and agriculture and animal domestication became primary methods for food production. Dogs and cats have played an intrinsic role in the evolution of the human species, and we have to wonder where would we be without them?

THE HISTORY OF THE LYRIC THEATRE
Weaving together the history of the Lyric Theatre over the past 95 years is story of community, commitment and connection. A community who joined together to support and save this historic treasure is our story. The thriving Lyric Theatre we now know is a testament to you, our Community.
Built in 1925 as silent movie house with a small stage for Vaudeville acts, The Lyric was the largest building in Martin County. It was built at a cost of one hundred thousand dollars by Judge John Hancock and his wife, Mamie. The Lyric Building, as it was called had a 900-seat theatre and featured retail storefronts including Bailey's Drug Store with an eleven-foot-long soda fountain counter.
The Lyric opened its doors on March 15, 1926 with a special presentation featuring an overture by Mrs. Hancock on the pipe organ and screening of Skinner's Dress Suit. With so much excitement from the community, The Lyric was packed to capacity and large numbers of people were turned away. The Stuart Daily News reported "judging from the attendance at theatre, The Lyric is going to be a mighty popular place. It is indeed an ideal playhouse and one that every resident of Stuart might well be proud of."
Newly equipped with a sound picture machine, the first talkie ever screened in Martin County was featured on December 1, 1930. The Lyric was drawing record crowds and the Hancock's received tremendous praise and support from the community.
The Lyric fell on hard times, however, after the Great Depression. Over the following years, it was rented out by many community groups and was used to present traveling vaudeville shows, news weeklies and movies.
In 1978, The Lyric was purchased by the New Life in Christ Church that used the theatre for weekly worship services. By 1987 the church wanted to move, and the theatre was put up for sale.
Roy Laycock, a visionary and realtor, saw the historic Lyric as an anchor for downtown Stuart and a much-needed entertainment center for Martin County which would add to the quality of life and foster a sense of community pride.
Knowing the historic building was essential to bring life back to downtown, Roy prepared terms to purchase the historic building from the Church. As he left his office to negotiate the deal, a colleague asked, do you have the funds to purchase The Lyric? And Roy replied, no. After entering into a verbal agreement to purchase the historic structure for $300,000 and a $5,000 deposit was required to finalize the contract. Roy went door to door seeking out ten $500 donors and within 24 hours, the funds were raised.
Believing that Community should be the owner of The Lyric, Roy pulled together an amazing team of people with fundraising and operational backgrounds to help ignite and support his vision.
The church allowed the use the theatre for fundraising activities while it was under contract, which was a tremendous help. Fundraising, cash loans and personal guarantees by board members, made the purchase possible and the historic theatre was now owned by The Friends of the Lyric.
These visionaries were truly a working Board. They ushered patrons, served drinks, cleaned the theatre, painted and patched and even prayed that the restrooms would work when there was a packed house.
Their payoff was the chance to gather weekly to pick the bands that would perform, and hopefully raise the much-needed funds to continue the vision. If a Board member picked an artist, they were responsible for booking the act, marketing the show, selling the tickets, recruiting volunteers, loading and unloading the band's equipment, and whatever else was needed to present the show.
With a building in great disrepair, two major grants were secured in 1993. Community grassroot efforts and these grants provided the funds to repair the roof, tent the building for termites, repair holes in the plaster, reinforce the stage floor, upgrade the electrical wiring and rigging, add a new projection and control room, as well as many other improvements.
Even with all of these repairs, there was still so much more that was needed to make The Lyric accessible and comfortable. The Balcony seats were tattered and covered with scat and the only way to access the balcony was the narrow stairways. The community rose to the need again, and in 2001 an elevator and new balcony seats were installed.
In an interesting twist of fate, a lot immediately adjacent to The Lyric was made available to the Board of Directors to acquire in 1999 for an expansion. This future expansion was greatly needed to improve the artistic and cultural programing most importantly to provide a proper backstage for the national touring acts. At the time, a very small dressing room and the basement, which had no restroom facilities, were the only areas for artists to prepare for a show.
Many rummage sales and fundraisers were held on this lot to raise the funds for the expansion and in 2004, the expansion project began with support and commitment from donors, patrons and community partners. The stage was enlarged by 16-feet and equipped The Lyric with a backstage and a restroom. This was next step, The Lyric was now able to present larger productions, including full scale orchestras and dance companies.
As the Lyric was nearing 90 years of service to our community, she underwent an extensive facelift to elevate her interiors to match the high-caliber artists that perform on the stage. The 2014 renovation included structural repairs, new orchestra seating, remodeled Box Office and Lobby featuring a new bar and architectural elements and ornamentation was added.
And now, it is hard to fathom that Our Lyric has been dark for over a year. But, once again, YOU our loyal supporters have been our light during these dark days. Your commitment makes it possible for The Lyric to once again open her doors and serve the Community. Heartfelt words of gratitude will never be enough to THANK YOU for your generous support.
The Lyric was built for the community and her community has come together time and time again to preserve and protect this historical gem and cultural resource. Providing access to arts and culture is essential to strengthening the power of change, making this a stronger community. We are dedicated to strengthening our commitment to empower, educate and inspire our leaders of tomorrow and providing a home for the performing arts in the Treasure Coast.
Several weeks ago, when light at the end of the tunnel began to appear, an anonymous backstage angel was waiting in the wings, off stage, with a gift of five hundred thousand dollars payable over a period of time to begin these repairs and upgrades.
The project, with no frills, includes a new roof; new air conditioning units with state-of-the-art air purification systems; new carpeting; new signage to replicate the historic "blade" signs of The Lyric's past; restoration of the marquees; and the most requested high-rise toilets to accommodate our patrons. The budget for these repairs and upgrades is approximately one million dollars.
Without this backstage angel and the unique opportunity this gift represents, we would not been able to contemplate these necessary repairs. This wonderful angel also saw this as the time for this project, while we are dark and while the world is not yet back to normal. This gift of treasure and opportunity means that when The Lyric opens in Fall, she will be outfitted with the latest technology for your safety and comfort.
Without YOUR annual support and commitment, particularly in this past year, we would never have announced our Next Act Campaign to fund this major renovation project. You have once again committed to support Our Lyric.
We are honored to lead this important campaign and encourage you to join us in a shared commitment to protect and preserve Our Lyric. We will do our very best to ensure these capital gifts do not impinge on our annual operational support, which is so vital to our existence.

Comodo names former White House CIO as cyber vice president
CLIFTON, NJ June 21, 2017 Comodo, a global innovator and developer of cybersecurity solutions and the worldwide leader in digital certificates, announced today the appointment of Carlos Solari as vice president of cyber security services. Carlos will help lead efforts to expand on a growing Managed Security Services (MSS) line of business. MSS as it relates to the web, the Internet of Things and Industrial Control Systems is at the front lines of cyber security.
Solari has a vast knowledge of IT and national cyber security, most notably serving as CIO for the White House from 2002-2005, where he was instrumental in the development and implementation of the strategy and enterprise architecture for major systems renovation, covering all aspects of the enterprise computing serving the White House and its supporting offices. Prior to joining the White House, Solari had 20+ years of public service experience, including 13 years in the army and six with the FBI's Criminal Investigation Division managing several large-scope, full life-cycle IT programs for the FBI.
Solari's previous roles in the private sector include Mission Secure Inc, where he focused on the security of industrial systems, with Computer Science Corp where he served as GM/VP of global security services for Fortune 500 companies and government clients and as cyber security lead at Alcatel Lucent / Bell Labs Solari. It was at Bell Labs that he and colleagues worked to define the methods for design of security embedded in systems – security by design – where he wrote (with contributors) Security in a Web 2.0+ World.
"I'm truly thrilled to join the Comodo team where security innovation is the one constant, in the DNA of the company, for solving very difficult cyber challenges," said Solari. "One can't help but get caught up in the energy of this young, vibrant, multi-national company bringing security solutions to market that challenge the status quo of old thinking with the new and innovative."

Before you start imagining fantastical tales from science fiction and fantasy, let me clarify that dragon's blood is not really the blood of this magical beast. It is, however, the resin derived from a tree that looks like the mystical creature. Dracaena cinnabari, also known as the dragon tree, is native to the Socotra islands and South America. Dragon's blood gets its name from the deep red sap it produces. This is used in dyes, varnishes, medicines and cosmetics. The strange, umbrella-shaped trees are not only fascinating to look at but are a treasure trove for medicinal and beauty benefits. Celebrities like Lady Gaga and Kylie Jenner have been raving about this ingredient.
A dragon's blood a day keeps the needles away. Known as a liquid facelift, it adds volume to hollow skin and makes it plumper and younger. This red sap is loaded with antioxidants and wards off free radicals that cause premature ageing. It also deeply moisturises, promotes cell renewal and even boosts collagen production.
Dragon's blood has anti-bacterial properties that help in treating acne by clearing bacteria and infection from the pores. Its moisturising properties soothe irritable skin. It also reduces inflammation and redness, common in acne-prone skin.
The anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of this resin repair and protect skin from environmental damage. The healing property of dragon's blood clears acne scars and other scarring by stimulating the growth of the skin's fibroblasts.
Since dragon's blood has anti-inflammatory, antiviral and anti-bacterial properties, it works great to treat wounds and injuries. Dragon's blood helps heal scrapes, bites, wounds, stings, rashes and skin problems. Applying this sap topically forms a barrier-like second skin and shields from environmental damage.
Dragon's blood has been used profusely for spiritual purposes by various tribes across the world. Its woody scent is known to soothe and relax, making it a popular ingredient for scented candles and incense sticks used in homes and spas.

Why 'All Men Are Created Equal' Shouldn't Always Apply
By David North on August 26, 2011
"All men are created equal" is an important principle, but it has its limits.
That's the way it should be regarding relationships among human beings within a democracy, but it should not necessarily apply when a democracy is handling a threat scenario.
A good example of the misplaced use of the equality principal could be seen during the early post-9/11 screenings for would-be terrorists on our passenger planes – everyone was equally subject to random special attention, be they 90-year-old nuns or young men from, say, Yemen.
In many ways that sort of mindless egality is applied to somewhat less dramatic situations, such as our migration-screening procedures, including the way we sort out applicants for F-1 (student) visas.
If you are a graduate of Heidelberg or Oxford University, and you have been admitted to a PhD program at, say, Yale University, you get the same formal level of scrutiny by this country as if you are from a marginal educational institution in the Third World, and want to apply to a for-profit university in the United States.
American consular officials may treat the two applicants a little differently, but formally both applicants are equally able to apply, and the same screening procedures are in place.
Does that make any more sense than a random search of the 90-year-old nun? Probably not, but that is the way we do it, while our more sophisticated colleagues Down Under react in a more rational manner.
Both Australia and New Zealand also provide tertiary education to people from other nations (and, full disclosure, I had, thanks to the Fulbright Program, a chance to sample the N.Z. system, and found it excellent). Both nations have had troubles with nonimmigrant drop-outs from its universities who have become illegal aliens in their countries, and both are doing something, but something different from each other, about it. The U.S. should profit from both examples.
In each case the nation has decided that certain classes of foreign student applicants warrant closer scrutiny than others, classes that have produced higher percentages of illegal aliens than others.
In the case of New Zealand, that country, according to a recent news article, is contemplating adjusting the migrant-screening process to make it easier for students seeking to come to high-quality institutions, and less easy for those seeking to come to low-quality institutions. That quality rating system is expected to be in place next year.
Meanwhile, to cope with the same problem, Australia has in place a system which, according to the same article, "assesses the risk according to the nationality of would-be students and their intended educational sector – not the track record of the institution."
The judgment on nationality relates to the past record of other students from that nation in terms of their compliance with Australia's immigration laws.
In the U.S. we have none of those highly rational systems in place. I, for one, think that it would make excellent sense to provide greater barriers to the admission of aliens coming to for-profit institutions of higher learning rather than to non-profits; more barriers for people coming to newly-established institutions rather than to older ones.
If, in addition, we could work out a quality scale within those brackets, so much the better, but that would be more difficult.
Speaking of for-profit educational institutions, there is the recent example of the ICE-raided University of Northern Virginia in the D.C. suburbs. This is the for-profit university that is owned by one individual, Daniel Ho, who also owns three grocery stores.
UNV, according to the Chronicle of Higher Education, is
accredited by the American University Accreditation Council, which is not recognized by the [U.S.] Department of Education. The address listed as the Council's headquarters is an auto-body repair shop owned by the chairman of Northern Virginia's board. A caller to the number listed on the accreditor's web site was greeted with the following message Thursday evening: "This is D'Angelo, so get at me back."
Late in July ICE hauled off boxes of documents from the entity's tiny campus, announced it was conducting an investigation, and suspended UNV's right to issue the visa-creating document, the Form I-20. A phone call to UNV on August 25 confirmed that they were not, at the moment anyway, accepting new foreign students, apparently because of their problems with ICE.
Earlier in the year ICE closed down another for-profit educational institution, Tri-Valley University in California, on the grounds, to put it bluntly, that it was a visa mill.
Meanwhile, as we noted in an earlier blog, the institution that is the largest user of the dubious F-1/OPT bonus system – an extra $10K to employers who hire alien, not comparable, citizen college grads – Stratford University, is also a for-profit entity.
Maybe those Kiwi immigration officials are on to something.

The Diocese of Hallam is a Latin Church ecclesiastical territory or diocese of the Catholic Church in England. The diocese comprises the whole of the City of Sheffield, and the surrounding towns of Rotherham, Doncaster, Barnsley, Chesterfield, the Peak District and areas of Worksop and Retford. It is a suffragan diocese in the ecclesiastical province of the metropolitan Archdiocese of Liverpool.

Erection of the Diocese
The diocese was erected on 30 May 1980 by Pope John Paul II, by removing territory from the Diocese of Leeds and the Diocese of Nottingham. It is one of the six suffragan sees that fall under the ecclesiastical Province of Liverpool (also known as the Northern province).

The diocese derives its name from Hallamshire, an ancient name for the Sheffield area. It is under the patronage of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour, whose feast is celebrated as a solemnity in the diocese on 27 June.

The first Bishop of Hallam was Gerald Moverley, who resigned in July 1996 and died later that year.  The second bishop was John Rawsthorne, who had previously been an auxiliary bishop of Liverpool and titular bishop of Rotdon. The third and current incumbent is Ralph Heskett, C.Ss.R., who had previously been Bishop of Gibraltar.

The diocesan Cathedral is the Cathedral Church of St. Marie in the city centre of Sheffield.

Deanery structure

The parishes included in the Diocese of Hallam are organised into six deaneries.

Most people who visit an orthodontist for braces may be adolescents, but about one out of every five patients with braces just happens to be an adult. If you are an adult considering getting braces to straighten your smile, you may find this a little surprising, as you likely expected that a lot fewer adults actually wore braces at all. This is only one of the misconceptions adults usually have about braces. There are a few more misconceptions about getting braces as an adult that you should know about if you are considering this form of treatment for your own teeth.
Misconception: If you already had braces once, you cannot get them again.
Fact: It is actually quite common for someone who has already had braces once to get them later on in life because their smile has changed shape. Therefore, you can easily get braces for a second time if you choose to and see results. In a lot of cases, the lack of retainer use after braces for younger adolescents will lead to the teeth moving out of alignment. In these cases, braces are a logical choice as an adult.
Misconception: You will have to wear the braces for a lot longer as an adult.
Fact: The total lengths of time that you will have to keep braces is all reliant on how much movement needs to take place with your smile and has little to do with your age. The same basic process is the same. Invisible braces, which is what most adults opt for, may have to be worn only a few months or a year and a half, depending on the necessary treatment. This is comparable to the amount of time someone of a younger age group would have to wear braces.
Misconception: Braces will interfere with your personal life much more when you are a grown up.
Fact: Braces do not have to be an interference in your life much at all. Modern braces are small, lightweight, and can even be invisible if you prefer. You may think that your personal life would be a bigger concern now than it would have been when you were a teen, and that may be true, but braces will have little effect.
The facts show that braces as an adult are a logical solution if you are not happy with the shape of your smile. If you think braces are the right choice for you, talk to an orthodontist for more information.

The Supreme Court has given judgment in two cases today concerning the immigration rules. The judgments have been described as "perhaps the most important in immigration law since the Immigration Act 1971 was passed". So what were the cases about – and why are they so significant?
The Immigration Act is the legal framework for determining when people not having the "right of abode" in the UK may enter and remain in the country. But, as is often the case, the Act does not lay down detailed rules determining how individuals' cases are to be decided. Instead, the Home Secretary makes rules setting out the details. Crucially, section 3(2) of the Act says that the Home Secretary must "lay before Parliament statements of the rules, or of any changes in the rules, laid down by him as to the practice to be followed in the administration of this Act".
In the cases decided by the Supreme Court today, the claimants had been denied permission to remain in the UK on the basis of rules that had not been laid before Parliament in accordance with section 3(2) of the Act. This meant (said the claimants) that the rules were unenforceable – and that they could not therefore be denied permission to remain on the strength of the rule. In one of the cases (the other can be found here), the claimant succeeded.Two crucial issues arose.
Another power? Did the Home Secretary have a separate power – one not arising under the Immigration Act – to make immigration rules? If so, she could argue that the disputed rule was made under that other power, and that it therefore did not need to be laid before Parliament. No, said the Supreme Court. Any other powers that the Home Secretary might have had to regulate immigration were extinguished by the 1971 Act, which was intended to be a comprehensive code of immigration law. This part of the judgment reinforces a crucial constitutional principle – that when Parliament lays down the law, the Government cannot get around it by relying on its so-called "prerogative", or common law, powers.
When is a rule not a "rule"? Could it be argued that the policy applied to the claimant's detriment wasn't actually a "rule" – and so didn't need tot be laid before Parliament? The claimant had been denied leave to remain because he was not doing a "skilled" job: but the definition of a "skilled" job had never been laid before Parliament. Was that definition a "rule" (such that it ought to be laid)? Yes, said the Court: any requirement that, if not satisfied, will cause the claimant to be denied permission to enter or remain in the country is a "rule".
This may all sound very technical – and, on one level, it is. But it is likely to have profound practical implications in the short term, since it "drives a coach and horses through the thousands of meticulously detailed pages" of immigration policy (which the Government didn't lay before Parliament because it didn't think they were actually "rules"). In the longer term, the Government may get Parliament to amend the Immigration Act, so that it is not necessary to lay all of the rules before Parliament.
That sounds like a neat solution – but as Lord Hope explained in the Supreme Court: "What Parliament was insisting on [by passing section 3(2)] was that [the Home Secretary] should lay her cards on the table so that the rules that she proposed to apply, and any changes that were made to them, would be open to scrutiny." And so some bigger questions arise. How much of its law-making power is it proper for Parliament to share with the Government (eg by allowing it to make rules of the type that were at stake in this case)? And, when Parliament does share this sort of power, how carefully should its exercise be scrutinised by Parliament?

Here's how to listen to articles on your phone
Cara Curtis
Former TNW writer
Welcome to TNW Basics, a collection of tips, guides, and advice on how to easily get the most out of your gadgets, apps, and other stuff.
Although you can probably read a lot quicker than you can listen, sometimes it's just too much effort to stare at your phone screen to read a long-form article after a hard day at work staring at your computer screen.
Maybe you catch yourself drifting off, your mind wanders to the weird corners of your brain, or you're just bored of the sound of the voice in your head — and of course, you can't read all the time.
There's a whole selection of apps that make news more accessible and engaging. There are paid subscription services like Curio, Noa, and Narro, or free services including The Atlantic's SoundCloud library with audio versions of their articles, and a wide selection of stories on Medium are free to listen to, until you've reached your monthly limit.
If you're only interested in a free service to listen to today's top news, Pocket is an app available on iOS, Android, and desktop, that allows you to listen to a wide selection of articles from publications including The New York Magazine, Wired, and MIT Technology Review.
To download Pocket and listen to articles all you have to do is:
Head to your app store, be that Android or iOS, or simply visit Pocket's website on desktop
Create an account using an email and password
Choose whether you want a free account or PocketPremium. (A free account allows you to save, read, watch, and listen to content on the app — but it's a limited selection than the premium account. But if you opt for the upgraded account, for either £3.99 or £34.99 per year, you'll have an ad-free experience, a wider range of fonts, a permanent library, and a powerful search bar to find topics you're interested in, suggested tags, and unlimited highlighting).
Once you've selected your account preference, head to the home page.
On this page, a timeline will appear showing news in chronological order from various publications.
Simply click an article, and select the headphone icon to begin listening.
Pocket on iOS
While Pocket does exactly what it says on the label, the voice of the audible article is robotic with barely any emotion, making it harder to fully immerse yourself in the story.
Luckily, there are some paid alternatives that provide a better experience. One of the best choices is Audm, a subscription giving you daily, curated pieces of long-form journalism read aloud by voice actors available on both iOS and Android devices.
How does Audm work?
Launched in 2016, Audm works with dozens of publishers giving you access to thousands of stories from sites including The New Yorker, ProPublica, Wired, The Atlantic, BuzzFeed News, and more.
Firstly, it's good to know that Audm is subscription based, and while the app is free to download, you can't start listening to articles unless you sign up for a $7 per month plan or a $5 per month. However, there is a three-day free trial but this option doesn't allow much room for you to cancel before the first payment comes out.
Audm's pricing on iOS
If you decide to subscribe to the audible-articles app, depending on what device you have, you can download the app from the app store.
Once downloaded and subscribed, you'll have immediate access to a diverse catalogue of publishers, 49 to be exact — from Forbes to more niche publications like The Bitter Southerner.
As outlined by LifeHacker, Audm doesn't release daily stories from every outlet. For example, the Outside Magazine only had a small collection of available articles whereas The New Yorker delivers a larger selection of news weekly.
With this in mind, Audm will introduce you to new articles, publications, and potential interests you never knew you even had — and there should be enough to pass the time on your daily commute.
Audm on iOS
Since Audm has a huge selection of daily stories, and there's probably no way you can listen to them all, the app allows you to listen on the go with CarPlay, an app that takes the things you want to do with your iPhone while driving and puts them on your car's built-in display.
However, playback controls are limited allowing only a 15-second skip back and forward, alongside a speed toggle tool to speed up an article if you really want to know all the details quickly.
Not only does Audm allow you to listen to articles whenever you're on the move, it makes long-form journalism more accessible to people who have difficulty reading and those who are visually impaired.
With a bunch of free and paid versions of audio-apps out there, there's really no excuse to not know what's going on in the world.

Bei der Kauterisation (von lateinisch cauterisatio: Brennen mit dem Brenneisen oder einem Ätzmittel) oder Kauterisierung wird Gewebe durch den Kauter oder chemische Mittel (Ätzmittel) zerstört. Dadurch kann z. B. eine Blutung gestoppt oder eine gutartige Wucherung entfernt werden.

Kauter

Der Kauter (griechisch kautêr) oder das Kauterium (lateinisch cauterium; Verbrenner, Brenneisen, Glüheisen) ist ein chirurgisches Instrument zum Kauterisieren (auch "Kautern" genannt), das bereits in der Zeit der Pharaonen in Ägypten erfunden wurde und heute als Elektrokauter in Form einer feinen, durch elektrischen Strom erhitzten Drahtschlinge zum Einsatz kommt. Im Wesentlichen dient der Kauter während einer Operation zur Blutstillung oder zum Schneiden. Die entsprechende Operationstechnik ist die Elektrokaustik.

Synonym wird für die Kauterisation mittels Elektrokauter oft der Begriff Diathermie gebraucht.

Geschichte
Kauterisation wird verwendet, um Blutungen zu stoppen. Das frühere Verfahren, etwa im Rahmen von Amputationen, war einfach: Ein Stück Metall wurde über Feuer erhitzt und auf die Wunde aufgetragen. Dies führte dazu, dass sich Gewebe und Blut schnell auf extreme Temperaturen erhitzten, was eine Koagulation des Blutes zur Folge hatte und somit die Blutung auf Kosten umfangreicher Gewebeschäden kontrollierte.

Kauterisation war bereits im Mittelalter eine häufige Behandlung, manchmal unbeabsichtigt wie beim Hubertusschlüssel.

Der Kauter wird im Corpus Hippocraticum beschrieben. Auch im 7. Jahrhundert verwendeten chirurgisch tätige Ärzte, wie Paulos von Aigina berichtete, das Glüheisen um Blutungen zu vermeiden. Um 960 entwickelte Abu Al-Qasim Techniken und Instrumente zur Kauterisierung und beschrieb sie in seinem Buch At-Tasrif. So setzte er das Glüheisen etwa bei Leistenbruchoperationen ein. Seine Techniken beeinflussten die medizinische Welt fünf Jahrhunderte lang weiter. Der im Mittelalter als Glühkauter aus Gold oder Eisen bestehende Kauter wurde bereits in der Antike vielseitig eingesetzt: als Gegenreiz, als Hämostatikum, als unblutiges Messer, als Mittel zur Zerstörung von Tumoren und vieles mehr. Später wurden spezielle medizinische Instrumente, sogenannte Cutter, verwendet, um Arterien zu kauterisieren. Die bereits im 2. Jahrhundert bekannte Technik der Arterienligatur als Alternative zur Kauterisation wurde später von Ambroise Paré verbessert und effektiver eingesetzt. Im Jahr 1930 gab Gustav Maurer (* 1895) mit der Thorakokaustik bzw. "Ausschälungsthorakokaustik" ein verbessertes Verfahren zu Lösung pleuraler Verwachsungen von der Brustwand bekannt.

Ten UK charities win GSK accolade and cash boost
Ben Adams
Ten charities have won GlaxoSmithKline's IMPACT Awards for 2013 after being recognised for helping the UK with its health and well-being.
The winners were announced on Friday evening by GSK - and partner for the awards The King's Fund think-tank - at the Science Museum in London.
They are: Care Network Cambridgeshire; East Lancashire Women's Centres; Forum for Action on Substance Abuse; Greater Easterhouse Alcohol Awareness Project; Huntingdon's Disease Association; Leicestershire AIDS Support Services; MAC-UK; No Limits; SIFA Fireside; and Yorkshire MESMAC.
The winners receive at least £30,000 as well as training to be able to take their organisations to the next level, according to GSK.
The East Lancashire Women's Centres won the overall award on the night, who received an extra £10,000 on top of their £30,000 prize.
This year's winners cover a wide-range of specialisms and represent all areas of the UK. These include one successfully targeting the mental health needs of young people involved in gangs and highly antisocial behaviour; supporting women with mental health issues with a broad approach including their wider socio-economic needs; and one supporting people with Huntington's Disease, an incurable progressive hereditary disease.
Katie Pinnock, director of UK corporate contributions at GSK, said: "This year's winners show what incredible impact charities can have on the health of the local community across the UK and why it is so important that we continue to support them. It is remarkable what these organisations have achieved with the small budgets and we hope that the £30,000 funding for each organisation, along with the recognition of the awards, with help them to continue this work."
Lisa Weaks, third sector programme manager at The King's Fund, added: "These charities show clearly how health charities can transform people's lives in such diverse ways. They add value to the public services already given, providing innovative answers to difficult issues."
Weaks said that these are "challenging times for charities", especially smaller ones like organisations recognised by the awards. She pointed out that the commissioning system in healthcare has "changed dramatically" in recent years and The King's Fund's research has found that the financial climate is putting them at risk. "It is important that their value is recognised through awards like these, and provide them with the training to improve their organisations and secure their future success," she concluded.

Der Bahnhof Toblach () befindet sich an der Pustertalbahn im Osten Südtirols.

Lage
Der Bahnhof liegt auf  Höhe auf dem Toblacher Feld, der Wasserscheide zwischen Rienz und Drau im Pustertal. Er ist nicht beim historischen Dorfzentrum von Toblach angesiedelt, sondern weiter südlich jenseits der Kreuzung von SS 49 und SS 51 im Ortsteil Neu-Toblach am Eingang des Höhlensteintals. In der unmittelbaren Umgebung des Bahnhofs befinden sich der Flugplatz Toblach und das ehemalige Grand Hotel Toblach, heute ein Kulturzentrum.

Geschichte
Der Bahnhof wurde 1871 zusammen mit der von der Südbahn-Gesellschaft vorangetriebenen Pustertalbahn in Betrieb genommen. Ab 1921 diente er zudem als Trennungsbahnhof zwischen der in Ost-West-Richtung verlaufenden Pustertalbahn und der Dolomitenbahn, die von Toblach aus südwärts ins Höhlensteintal abzweigte. 1962, als der Nordast der Dolomitenbahn eingestellt wurde, verlor der Bahnhof Toblach allerdings wieder diese Funktion.

Im Rahmen einer Gesamtsanierung der Pustertalbahn kam es 2009 auch in Toblach zu Umgestaltungen: Zu den verwirklichten Baumaßnahmen gehörten adaptierte Bahnsteige, eine Unterführung und ein neuer Zugang.

Baulichkeiten
Das von Wilhelm von Flattich entworfene Aufnahmsgebäude zeichnet sich durch eine individuelle Charakteristik aus, die in ihrer großbürgerlichen Anmutung von den übrigen Bauwerken entlang der Pustertalbahn abweicht und im Zusammenhang mit dem nahen Grand Hotel gesehen werden muss. Das Aufnahmsgebäude weist eine in bossierten Granitsteinen und Nagelfluh ausgeführte Steinverkleidung auf. Der Mittelbau wird von zwei Seitenflügeln eingerahmt, die gleisseitig durch hölzerne Veranden ergänzt sind. Einige Details in den Giebelfassaden wurden der Architektur vornehmer Palazzi entlehnt. Als einzige moderne Ergänzung des Baubestands steht gegenüber dem Westflügel ein zweigeschoßiger Neubau, der im späten 20. Jahrhundert errichtet wurde.

Seit 2004 stehen die historischen Bauten, zu denen auch eine Lokremise östlich vom Aufnahmsgebäude gehört, unter Denkmalschutz.

Funktion
Der Bahnhof Toblach wird von Regionalzügen der Trenitalia und der SAD bedient.

Q: finding both "Shopping_mall" and "food" within single URL for google places API I tried following URLs to get both "shopping_mall" and "food" within a single request.
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/search/json?location=%@,%@&radius=1500&sensor=true&key=%@&types=shopping_mall|food

This gives me response with only "food" type of places.
But,
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/search/json?location=%@,%@&radius=1500&sensor=true&key=%@&types=shopping_mall

Gives the result with "shopping_mall" only. Also, The same URL with "food" only give the result same as "shopping_mall|food".
Has anyone faced this issue. I have searched across but cannot find any useful answer to that.
P.S. I have gone through this link and this link , too.

A: If you are getting only food in the first request, and you're getting 20 results, then it is likely Google believes the most relevant results are food. You may have to do 2 requests. You can try adding keyword=shopping, but that may limit your food results.

This function will loop over a list called centroids and find the closest one to a specific location. However my list centroids is changing along with our new list dista. PS I want to return the centroid not the distance.

A: dista=centroids
That means you're declaring a new name to the list, not a new list, you should make a new list,try for loop
dista=[]
for i in centroids:
    dista.append(i)

To prevent falling in the same mistake again, understand how vars work

=======

One of the hardships about being Canadian is that most programming languages are quite simply rude. Descriptions like 'imperative' and 'declarative' are enough to fill even the most impolite of Canadians with a vague sense of discomfort. Fear no more! Ruby is the sort of language that addresses all these concerns, and adds a familiar, maple-syrupy feel to your code.

You're one `load "ruby-eh.rb"` away from writing the correct and polite code you've always wanted. Here is a sample of what `ruby-eh.rb` can do for you:

### Polite code
```
giver "maple syrup".please.reverse.eh?
```

### French code
```
def articles_aleatoires(matrice)
    matrice.echantillon(1 + rand(matrice.compte))
end
```

### Canadian exceptions
```
# ArgumentError: uncaught throw ArgumentError. Take off, hoser.
```

### Unicode
```
if ☆ == ☂
    puts ☎
end
```

### Spaces in function names
```
take off
# >> If you don't mind, ♫ ♪ Coo loo coo coo, coo coo coo coo ♬ ♪
# => nil
```

### Open issues
There is not a single reference to hockey, curling, or meeses, which by most Canadian standards is unacceptable.

San Diego Padres drop second straight game to Pittsburgh Pirates, 5-1
Gene J. Puskar/AP
San Diego Padres right fielder Jurickson Profar dives for but can't get to an RBI single hit by Pittsburgh Pirates' Erik Gonzalez during the eighth inning of a baseball game in Pittsburgh, Wednesday, April 14, 2021.
By: John Perrotto, Associated Press
Posted at 8:11 AM, Apr 15, 2021
PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Gregory Polanco homered and the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the San Diego Padres 5-1, beating Joe Musgrove in his first start since throwing the first no-hitter in franchise history.
Polanco hit a solo shot into the right-field stands in the second inning. That ended a 32-inning scoreless streak by Musgrove that dated to last season when he was still with the Pirates.
Musgrove allowed only one run in four innings but was lifted after his pitch count reached to 81. He threw 112 pitches in the no-hitter last Friday against Texas.
Johnny Vander Meer remains the only pitcher in MLB history to pitch back-to-back no-hitters, performing the feat for the Cincinnati Reds in 1938.

having checked your original order the case you have has been discontinued for some time now and updated to a newer version. as part of this upgrade they changed PSU several times from a block connector internally to a 2 pin connection direct to the front power button. the only way to determine which PSU you need is to see some photos of your own PSU showing the connections and wiring.
