Q: Using colours as noun - are these sentences appropriate? I'm trying to be a bit artistic with my descriptions and am trying to use the below sentence constructs. Although I'm not sure how correct they are.

A black streaked in the distance
To mean - A crow/raven flew across his field of vision.

and

The fighter held a silver which shone like the edge of a blade.
To mean - The fighter held a weapon similar to a sword but not quite
so.

I have tried to search for similar sentences but have not found any proper matches.

A: Neither of those sentences sound right.

Because you are using indefinite articles, it's going to be a count usage of the noun, which are:

Black:
1 : the dark color of coal or the night sky  [noncount], [count]
  3 [count] : a person belonging to a race of people who have dark skin : a black person
MW Learner's Dictionary

Silver:
4 [count, noncount] : a shiny light gray color
  5 [count] : silver medal
MW Learner's Dictionary

For me, the "natural" reading of your first sentence is "a black person ran naked in the distance". There are several reasons for this:

*

*As a count noun with no adjectives, the "black person" definition is more common than the color definition. Plus, whenever the color definition is meant (again, when using it as a count noun with no adjectives) a color (and not a person) is very clearly meant: "A black can be made by mixing these two paints".

*The phrasing "streaked in the distance" is likely to be interpreted as having a different meaning here than the one you intend because it doesn't have an adverbial of direction.

The sentence could be rewritten as:

Something black streaked across the sky in the distance.

As for the other sentence:

*

*"Silver" meaning silver Olympic medal is very uncommon so it's super unlikely that anyone would read the sentence that way unless the context is Olympics-related. However, since it doesn't make sense to say someone is holding a color in their hand, the sentence just sounds wrong.

A proper way to write it is:

The fighter held something silver which shone like the edge of a blade.

(This version doesn't make it clear it's a weapon, however.)

A: Such usage would be a stretch. But here are some suggestions for the next best thing:
A streak of black [carved]/[crawled upon]/[glided across]/[...] the sky.
Here you can have fun with the verb.
With silver you'll need more significant modifications, as it also denotes the kind of material.

A: Practically speaking, you can't use a color to stand for something else unless the reader knows what that "something else" is, either from their own experience, or from something you have mentioned earlier in your text.
That said, you can leave something undefined for a long time, so that the reader gradually becomes aware of its meaning.  Kazuo Ishiguro does this very skillfully in The Buried Giant.
I'm assuming from your question that you want to use the color nouns to create a certain mood in your reader's mind, and that you are looking for some ideas on how to do this "correctly".  I think this is a good goal, and you shouldn't be discouraged by comments that focus excessively on grammar and conventional usage.
It's not easy to create moods, though, and my personal recommendation is that you study the work of writers that have done this successfully.
Depending on your writing goals, the collection of Science Fiction short stories at Project Gutenberg might be a good place to start.  Short stories often rely on the "surprise" change of perception at the end, and SF short story writers are particularly adept at misleading their readers, in part because the stories are often set in contexts where the reader's past experience can't be reliably applied.
You may be familiar with the story that Hunter S. Thompson typed out F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby in order to understand Fitzgerald's writing style.  If not, it's here.

Q: How to pass id of an element to a .js file? I am using DataTables and i have found out how to translate its UI into Spanish. Since i don't want to call this translation code everytime i create a view that will use dataTables, i have decided to store the following code into a separate .js file:
$(document).ready( function () {
    $('#table_id').DataTable({
        "language":{
            "lengthMenu":"Mostrar _MENU_ registros por página.",
            "zeroRecords": "Lo sentimos. No se encontraron registros.",
            "info": "Mostrando página _PAGE_ de _PAGES_",
            "infoEmpty": "No hay registros aún.",
            "infoFiltered": "(filtrados de un total de _MAX_ registros)",
            "search" : "Búsqueda",
            "LoadingRecords": "Cargando ...",
            "Processing": "Procesando...",
            "SearchPlaceholder": "Comience a teclear...",
            "paginate": {
                "previous": "Anterior",
                "next": "Siguiente",
                }
        }
    });
} );

Then I would call this file by using the javascript tag as follows:
<script src="{{URL::asset('DataTables-1.10.7/media/js/dataTables.MX_es.js')}}"></script>

I don't know how i would pass the related identifier #table_id to this call of my .js file.
A temporary solution i've got by now is to have this identifier as fixed (#table_id) ...
But what would I do if I had to use more than one dataTable inside a view?
That's why I need to pass the id as variable and the .js file should catch it.
How can I do this?

A: SOLUTION 1:
Declare a global variable for id of the datatable and use it in your script file, this would work for one datatable only, you could however use an array of ids declared globally and iterate over them in your .js file and call your routine for every id if you want this to work for more than one datatable. Using global variable is however not encouraged, but this would do the trick.
<script> var myGlobalPlaceholder = "#myDatatable"; </script>
<script src="{{URL::asset('DataTables-1.10.7/media/js/dataTables.MX_es.js')}}"></script>

SOLUTION 2:
Since you need to do this for more than one datatable on a single page why don't you place the following code inside a separate .js file lets say initializer.js:
//File: initializer.js:
    var spanishDatatableInitializer =function(table_id)
    {
        $(table).DataTable({
                "language":{
                    "lengthMenu":"Mostrar _MENU_ registros por página.",
                    "zeroRecords": "Lo sentimos. No se encontraron registros.",
                    "info": "Mostrando página _PAGE_ de _PAGES_",
                    "infoEmpty": "No hay registros aún.",
                    "infoFiltered": "(filtrados de un total de _MAX_ registros)",
                    "search" : "Búsqueda",
                    "LoadingRecords": "Cargando ...",
                    "Processing": "Procesando...",
                    "SearchPlaceholder": "Comience a teclear...",
                    "paginate": {
                        "previous": "Anterior",
                        "next": "Siguiente",
                        }
                }
            });
    }

And then include it in your View file like this :
<script type="text/javascript" src="initializer.js"></script>

And for that page's specific .js file call that function for every datatable id that is in your view:
$(document).ready(function () {
   spanishDatatableInitializer("#tableId1");
   spanishDatatableInitializer("#tableId2");
})

SOLUTION 3:
As azium suggested, use a common prefixed name for your datatable ids like "#my_datatable_*******" and in your js file do this:
$(document).ready( function () {
var dataTables = [];

$("div[id^='#my_datatable_']").each(function(){
  // dataTables.push(this.id);  // only for testing
$(this.id).DataTable({
        "language":{
            "lengthMenu":"Mostrar _MENU_ registros por página.",
            "zeroRecords": "Lo sentimos. No se encontraron registros.",
            "info": "Mostrando página _PAGE_ de _PAGES_",
            "infoEmpty": "No hay registros aún.",
            "infoFiltered": "(filtrados de un total de _MAX_ registros)",
            "search" : "Búsqueda",
            "LoadingRecords": "Cargando ...",
            "Processing": "Procesando...",
            "SearchPlaceholder": "Comience a teclear...",
            "paginate": {
                "previous": "Anterior",
                "next": "Siguiente",
                }
        }
    });
});
} );

A: The real question is how do YOU know which element to pass to your DataTable function. Consider the following:
$(document).ready(function () {
  $(someVariable).DataTables({ ... })
})

You will have to do one of two things. Pass the name of the id you want through the src=".." as you suggested (not going to work), or you will have to modify someVariable. In both instances you have to manually tell the code which element you want, so you're not really saving yourself much work.
What you could do, is follow some sort of naming convention, so that your function will always match a set of selectors.
$(document).ready(function () {
  $('[id^="data-table-"]').DataTables({ ... })
})

This way as long as your tables always start with 'data-table-' like:
id="data-table-something-something"

your function will run without having to hard-code the ID (or multiple ID's) everytime.


Cleaning and maintaining a surface's structure can be hard work, especially if you don't know exactly what to do and where to get started. In most cases, the best thing for you to do is to hire a professional sandblasting server like W.A.S.P. We have years of experience in the game, and we'll provide the very best work via our professional-grade equipment.
Using different blasting technologies depending on your needs, fine grains of media are blasted at high speeds through a nozzle, and those fine grains will do a phenomenal job of cleaning various surface types.
W.A.S.P. of Melbourne takes this particular cleansing method to a completely new level.
– Our technicians are highly trained to handle the toughest of surface cleaning jobs.
– By using some of the finest of grain, we can thoroughly cleanse a wide array of surfaces and leave them looking like new.
– Residue, dust and other impurities will be wiped clean, which will lead to exposing a smoother surface.
– We can also cleanse metal gears.
This method of blasting is very popular.
– Here at WASP, our abrasive-blasting material can smoothen a rough surface.
– It can roughen a smooth surface or can shape a surface into a specific direction.
– Blasting material, also known as media, is propelled via pressurized fluid or compressed air.
This method of blasting is a great cutting tool. Our technicians utilize the strength of extraordinary sodium bicarbonate. By doing so, we can get a unique level of cleanliness by soda blasting oil, grease, tar and rust.
We provide environmental excellence via dustless blasting. Our advanced technologies help to encapsulate the airborne abrasives via water droplets. WASP technicians offer an eco-friendly way to clean any surface as well as clean any coating.
For removing embedded fungus as well as cleaning stuck-on calcium deposits from pool tile, WASP technicians use high-pressure bead blasting. We can even brighten the grout's colour without damaging any type of surface.
WASP of Melbourne simply gets the job done in the most efficient way possible. Our blasting technologies can be used for domestic or commercial use. Our work can be done in-house or we also provide mobile blasting and do the work on-site.

This was stated by Union Minister Nitin Gadkari while addressing the annual convention of Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM) in New Delhi on Thursday.
Urging automakers to focus in this direction, the minister said demand for electric vehicles could also be created by mandating cab aggregators to induct a certain percentage of such vehicles in their fleet.
"We have decided to exempt EVs and all vehicles including autorickshaws, buses, taxis run on alternative fuel like ethanol, biodiesel, CNG, methanol and biofuel, from permit requirements. We have taken the decision to make these permit-free," said the transport minister.

Gregory's Lessee v. Setter, 1 Dall. 193 (Pa. 1787)
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania:
January Term, 1787
Gregory's Lessee versus Setter.
Ejectment for a House and Lot.—The Plaintiff's Counsel offered to give parol evidence of the declaration of the Grantor made after the execution of a deed, and cited 2 Chan. Ca. 180 Gilb. For: ROm. 232. 233. 2 Atk. 71. 150.
It was opposed by the Defendant's counsel, who admitted that parol evidence might be given of a declaration made before, or at the time of the execution of the Deed; but contended, that it was not admissible to prove a declaration after; and they cited 1 Atk. 447. 520. 1 State Laws 462. 2 Ca. in Chan. 180. 1 P. Will. 111. 112. 2 Vent. 361. 1 Vern. 367. 5 Bac. 375. 2 Black. Rep. 1249. 1250.
By the Court:—In this case a deed was made of the house in question to Mrs Gregory in fee simple, and evidence is offered to prove, that the purchase was made with the money of her deceased husband, part of which belonged to his children, and that the purchase was for their and her use. If she acknowledged this fact at any time, it amounts to a confession against herself, which may certainly be given in evidence.
Let the witness be sworn.

The new Law on Customs Measures for Protection of Intellectual Property Rights entered into force in Kosovo on May 23, 2018, introducing important changes intended to align local customs procedures with Regulation (EU) No. 608/2013 concerning customs enforcement of IP rights.
The new law streamlines the simplified procedure for the destruction of counterfeit goods and introduces the small consignments procedure.
According to the amended simplified procedure, rights holders are no longer required to send a cease and desist letter to notify the owner of the goods about the seizure and to seek consent for destruction. Instead, Kosovo Customs will notify both the rights holder and the owner about the detention within one working day.
The rights holder as well as the owner have 10 working days to react.
On December 27, 2017, the Kosovo Industrial Property Office (IPO) published its online trademark and patent database, allowing users to browse through patent and trademark applications and registrations. The database is available in the Albanian language only.
Although the IPO made every effort to complete the database with all existing information, the IPO highlighted that the database should only be used for guiding purposes.
The Kosovo Ministry of Trade and Industry signed two more IP-related Administrative Instructions, which entered into force.
The first Administrative Instruction (AI) No. 13/2016, in force as of September 2, 2016, thoroughly describes the procedures such as the filing of a patent application, patent registration, publication and the recording of changes in the register.
The AI No. 14/2016, in force as of September 7, 2016, clarifies the procedures to be followed and documents to be submitted when taking actions such as filing requests to record changes or renew trademarks. It is important to note that the AI requires a Power of Attorney to be enclosed with each of these requests. The AI also introduces some new provisions, which were not covered by the previous by-law, e.g. provisions describing the procedure to be followed if an observation notice has been filed.
Four new IP-related administrative instructions have recently entered into force in Kosovo.
- Proof of payment of the official fee per trademark in the amount of EUR 120.
Previously, the applicant also had to submit the proof that a civil or a customs action had been initiated.
The accelerated examination request may be submitted at any time after the filing date, as no time frame is specified. The IP Agency will decide on the request within 15 days from the filing date of the request.
The second Administrative Instructions, No. 10/2016, effective as of August 2, 2016, introduces a single fee system and amends certain official fees.
Previously, the Kosovo IPO provided two different schedules of fees, one for legal entities and one for natural persons. The new AI provides for a single fee schedule for both categories of applicants.
Certain official fees have increased significantly. For instance, the fee for filing oppositions has doubled, from EUR 50 to EUR 100, while the fee for invalidation actions increased from EUR 50 to EUR 200.
The third Administrative Instructions, No. 11/2016, effective as of August 12, 2016, was approved following the entry into force of the new law on geographical indications and designations of origin, in January 2016.
Finally, the fourth Administrative Instructions, No. 12/2016, on the industrial design registration procedure entered into force on August 22, 2016, providing detailed information on the procedures prescribed by the new law on industrial design, in force as of January 2016.
These two Administrative Instructions thoroughly describe the procedures such as application, registration, publication, recordal of changes, renewal and termination of validity for GI(s) and industrial designs.
The new Administrative Instructions on trademark and patent registration procedures are expected to enter into force soon.
As of June 8, 2016, the Kosovo IPO does not accept any action if not accompanied by an original Power of Attorney (PoA) form. Alternatively, a notarized copy of the original is acceptable. Kosovo notary public will only certify a copy if the original is notarized in the country of origin. Therefore, we recommend that each PoA sent, as of now on, is notarized.
This change applies to all filings before the Kosovo IPO, such as new applications, renewals, responses to office actions, oppositions, recordals, or any other action before the IPO.
Therefore, scanned copies of PoAs will not suffice to meet any deadline or obtain a filing date.
The new practice was adopted without any prior notification other than an email announcement that the local IP agents received on June 8, 2016 from the IPO.
Kosovo has recently drafted amendments to its trademark and patent laws, which the Kosovo Parliament is expected to adopt this year.
The amendments aim to bring Kosovo's IP legislation in line with European Union's directives, as one of the requirements for EU integration, as well as create a better and safer environment for investments and the protection of IP rights.
The draft amendments are available in Albanian, Serbian and English at the Kosovo Ministry of Trade and Industry's website.
The new Law on Geographical Indications (GIs) and Designations of Origin (DOs) entered into force in Kosovo on July 19, 2013.
According to the new law, GIs can be registered at Kosovo's IPO. Any GI in the name of a region, a specific place or in special cases the name of a state, which is used to describe a specific product originating from that region or state can be registered.
Registered GIs or DOs will be protected against any direct or indirect commercial use of products that are not registered, any misuse, imitation or infringement, each inaccurate (false) or misleading indication in terms of genealogy, origin, nature or essential qualities of the product, and every other practice or action that may mislead the consumer as to the true origin of the product.
Legal protection of GIs and DOs as foreseen by the new law covers several actions, including the procedure of finding and stopping the infringement, the application for the seizure and destruction of products, and the application for damage compensation. Moreover, the law includes penalty provisions including monetary fines in various amounts depending on different categories.
On January 17, the Kosovo Intellectual Property Office (IPO) issued its seventh Official Bulletin, the first one to include national trademark applications published for opposition, under the provisions of the new trademark law of September 2011.
This Bulletin also includes the Serbian trademarks re-filed in Kosovo.
The previous six Bulletins included the Serbian trademark re-registrations only.
Apart from the Serbian re-registrations, during the one-year revalidation period that started on November 19, 2007, when the Kosovo IPO opened, it was also possible to re-file the pending Serbian trademarks. These trademarks will be treated in the same manner as the national trademark applications, while the Serbian priority will be kept. Thus, these trademarks will also be subject to opposition.
An opposition notice may be filed with the Kosovo IPO within a period of three months as of the publication date.
The Administrative Instruction explains the procedure and the grounds for requesting the accelerated examination which was introduced by Kosovo's new Law on Trademarks. The Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) approved the Administrative Instruction on January 12, 2012 and entered into force on the same date.
- Proof of payment of the official EUR 50 (USD 63) fee per trademark, regardless of the number of classes.
The accelerated examination request may be submitted at any time after the filing date, as no time frame is specified. The IPO will decide to grant or reject the accelerated examination request within 15 days from the filing date. The examination is to be performed under the provisions of the Law on Trademarks.
- Trademark rights are acquired through registration only.
- Trademark holders do not need to declare the use or the intent to use the mark at the time the application is filed.
- An observation can be filded within three months from the publication of the application in the Official Gazette.
- Appeals of IPO's decisions can now be filed within 15 days of the receipt of the decision.
- An accelerated examination of a trademark application can be requested.
- The owner of a well-known trademark may not oppose an application or revoke a trademark registration unless the proprietor also owns a pending application or registration with the Kosovo IPO.
- Relative grounds for refusal: Goods and/or services will need to be similar even in case the earlier trademark has a reputation in the Republic of Kosovo and the use of the trademark without due cause would take unfair advantage of, or be detrimental to the distinctive character or reputation of the earlier trademark.
- No invitations to renew trademarks.
On April 12th, 2011, the Kosovo Intellectual Property Office issued its second Official Gazette, listing patent applications, registered patents, registered trademarks, as well as renewed trademarks.
The Kosovo Intellectual Property Office launched its first Official Gazette, which contains information on all registered patents and trademarks as well as renewed trademarks on December 9th, 2010.
On September 8th, 2010, the Kosovo parliament approved the new Law on Trademarks which will replace the 2006 Law No. 2006/02-L54.
The new law needs to be promulgated by the President of the Republic to enter into force. This is expected in the near future.
Legal basis is the new Law on Trademarks No. 04/L-026 (in force since September 8, 2011) and Law no 05/L-040 on amendments of Law on Trademarks no. 04/L-026 in force as from August 15, 2015. The Kosovo Trademark Law largely builds on the EU trademark law directive and satisfies all international standards related thereto.
Trademark rights are acquired through registration. Trademark holders do not need to declare the use or the intent to use the mark at the time the application is filed.
Kosovo is not a part of the Madrid Agreement or Protocol.
Starting from November 19, 2007, it has been possible to file new applications directly to IP Office in Kosovo. All trademarks, patent and designs applied to the PTO in Belgrade, but not registered until November 19, 2007 had to be re-filed in Kosovo. Such re-filed applications will maintain the priority date of the application filed in Yugoslavia/Serbia.
Registrable as a trademark are any signs, particularly words, including personal names, designs, letters, numerals, audio marks, three-dimensional configurations, including the shape of goods or their wrapping or other packaging, including colours, or combinations of colours, that are capable of distinguishing the goods or services of one undertaking from those of other undertakings may be protected as trademarks.
The application is filed at the Kosovo IP Office.
A multi-class application is allowed.
Foreign applicants need a local agent in order to file an application.
Power of Attorney needs to be in original and notarized.
The IP Office will examine applications on absolute grounds (eg. distinctiveness, and etc.).
- Proof of payment per trademark, regardless of the number of classes.
The accelerated examination request may be submitted at any time after the filing date, as no time frame is specified.
Cancellation, invalidation and revocation actions possible only before the IPO.
The opposition period is 3 months from the date of publication in the Official Bulletin.
A trademark registration is valid for 10 years from the date of application and it may be renewed for indefinite further periods of 10 years each.
The grace period for renewals is 6 months from the expiration date of the mark. In this case the double fee shall be paid.
If the trademark has not been used within 5 years from registration or has not been used later for 5 consecutive years, it may be subject to cancellation actions.
The official fee for filing a new trademark application in up to three classes is EUR 40, each additional class is EUR 5.
Registration fee and issuance of the registration certificate, up to three classes is EUR 50, each additional class is EUR 10.

The 2017 SAFW Sunglass Hut New Talent Search Winners MmusoMaxwel Finds Inspiration in Sign Language
MmusoMaxwell - © Jerri Mokgofe Photography-2
MmusoMaxwell - © Jerri Mokgofe Photography-10
The winners of the SAFW Sunglass Hut New Talent Search, MmusoMaxwell's first independent collection was inspired by sign language. Mmuso of the design duo stated that they liked the interweaving of hands and fingers when someone is communicating through sign language. Which transcends into communication thus their thinking as fashion designers were that clothes can be used by their wearer as a form of communication. "For example when you wear colorful clothes people assume that you are happy," said Mmuso.
The two David Tlale Intern alumni, Maxwell Boko and Mmuso Potsane best known for their minimalistic design aesthetic with intricate pattern making skills presented a more colorful 11 look collection taking a break from the muted colour palette one has come to expect from them.
Having won the SAFW Sunglass Hut New Talent Search 2017 with a prize that included a trip to London Fashion Week. The young designers instead decided to cash-in on the prize and inject the price value of the prize into their new business. They bought business assets such as mechanical sewing equipment and with the rest of what was left they used that money to buy fabric and pay for a slot to showcase at SAFW SS18. It was impressive to hear this because any other younger or older designer would have grabbed the prize and shipped off to London to be a spectator. Boko said "we thought about it and said we would go to London, come back and then what? We have reached a point in our career where we made a decision that we are going to invest in our business. So instead of going to have fun in London, we invested in our business because that machinery is going to stay long-term and this show will be helpful (ed. note: from sales and marketing perspective)". Boko stated that a trip to London would have been for a week or less, and they wanted something that would sustain their career beyond being the winners of Sunglass Hut New Talent Search 2017 competition.
Given that the two are young designers who are equally talented and each has a very strong design agility I was curious to find out how the merge of the two came about and how the relationship between the two is holding. Boko said they were initially told that their partnership to form one fashion label was the worst idea they could ever implement because they both have "strong personalities". Boko admitted that in the beginning, they did have friction because although they had similar design aesthetics, they had different points of views on things. However, through time they found their common ground which resulted in a positive and result driven relationship as they started working faster to complete tasks as a team.
When I was in marketing school the 4Ps (product, place, price, and promotion) were one of the most popular concepts to spring up in every discussion throughout my four years of tertiary education. As a designer you produce a product and this product needs a place where it will be stocked and sold at a profitable price. Hence the issue of retailers for local product designers is a serious one that needs the help of both private and public sectors. Boko said that currently there is not a single store that stocks their products locally, as beautifully made as they are. They are however stocked by a store called "The Narrative" in New York City. He exclaimed that "but we want South African retailers. You know, you want to be celebrated at home." Being stocked by a store in New York is great and a positive thing for global brand awareness and sales, however, it is tricky because of the logistics required to service an international retailer especially when you are an emerging designer. Being stocked locally grants you the opportunity to learn from the glitches you might experience and thus being able to resolve them within a short time frame.
What was meant to be a two minutes chat about their spring summer 2018 collection with Maxwell Boko turned out to be a fired-up conversation, whilst Mmuso Potsane backed the garments in luggage bags from the collection they just showcased. Maxwell Boko, Mmuso Potsane, and Ayanda Velase are some of the best young designers and pattern makers we have locally that I have gotten to know when they interned with David Tlale. It has been interesting to see their growth and to see them branching out to find their voice. Watch video HERE

Very Close But Not Close Enough
Andretti Autosport's Romain Grosjean in the No.28 DHL Honda says that he was close but not close enough in Sunday's Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach as he just missed out on taking his maiden NTT IndyCar Series victory coming home in second place behind race winner Josef Newgarden.
Grosjean started the race from sixth and came through the field to finish on the podium and speaking following the action he said:
"Very close, but not close enough. "That was fun. With the right tire strategy and with the last caution, I thought it was going to be great. He (Newgarden) did one mistake, but I just couldn't use it."
The Swiss-born Frenchman went on to say:
"It was a pretty good day out there! It's a bummer we didn't start P2, that would have made my day a lot easier. But, we had the right strategy, good pit stops, and pushed hard. The yellow [caution flag] really brought us back into the game and from there I made a couple of overtakes to get into second. Was just a little bit shy of getting the win today. Next time!"
Grosjean concluded by saying:
"We had the right strategy with good pit stops. We all pushed hard and had a yellow that brought us back in the game. Without any push to pass left I was left a little shy. We were trying to get a win today. Next time."
Alexander Rossi in the No.27 NAPA Auto Parts / AutoNation Honda started the race from fifth and finished the event in eighth place and speaking following the action the Californian commented saying:
"Silver linings of the day is that we finished and we finished in a position that has one digit instead of two. The car was good all weekend but we struggled a little bit with the tires in the first stint but the team did a great job with strategy. The pace on the Firestone Reds were good as well but we, unfortunately, lost some time in pit lane which makes for track position in INDYCAR these days."
Colton Herta in the No.26 Gainbridge Honda started the race from pole position and was forced to retire from the race after hitting the wall and speaking following the action he said:
"I feel bad because our car was really fast. We were good enough to win today, but you can't do that if you're in the wall. I think we had the right strategy, the right car. We'll try again at Barber."
Devlin DeFransceco finished the race in 25th place and speaking following the action he sai:
"I just locked up the front tires and, unfortunately, I smacked the wall and ended our race early. The car was good. I was really pushing. I just want to say sorry to the crew. This is a rough day for everybody."

Post subject: Re: Name the Corner!
COTA, The hairpin before the straight, T11 I believe.
right track but not T8 or T11.
The corner where Lewis overtook vettel.
Edit: Who's the arian stereotype with Seb?
His physio, Heikki Huovinen. They look like a couple to me, for some strange reason.
You're a master of karate and friendship…for everyone!
actually i dont know the corner , but i would say it is most likely eau rouge . well it is definitely spa but i think it is not steep enough for eau rouge ?
Technically it's Raidillon. Eau Rouge is only the left hand kink at the bottom of the hill.
Well, I'm stumped for now then.
Just by a simple process of elimination i think the alonso pic is either from korea or suzuka . I will go with suzuka andit looks like it is either the exit after spoon curve or 130R.

I reckon the Alonso one is the exit of the Spoon Curve, Suzuka.
A long red and white curb that curves slightly left and is downhill... That's my only idea. It'd have to be from FP or quali since he never made it there in the race.
well done , it is suzuka and it is one of the three : 1-130R 2-spoon 3-exit of the hairpin.
what about the first pic ?
Last edited by RebellionLola on Wed Jan 16, 2013 3:02 pm, edited 1 time in total.
And the (only before the) $1 question - parabolica?
That first one looks like suzuka turn 1.
The last one maybe at the nurburgring turn 5 or 6.
The one with the Ferrari and the Caterham looks like Nurburgring Turn 1.
how did u lot know that ? the suzuka pic is ok , but the nurburgring one could be one of 100 corners from all the circuits.
The only thing I can see that might be different on that car from the one at launch is possibly the exhaust exits. So assuming it's a bit later on in the season and that tree looks a bit 'foreign', I'm going with Korea?
Nahh don't think its Korea, that place is a concrete jungle only has astro turf not the real stuff.
Going out on a limb here with Monza?
Can't be Montreal or Spa, Mercedes didn't adopt the coanda exhaust until the Singapore GP. I'm guessing by the relatively narrow track that it's Suzuka.
My first guess for the Rosberg one is Interlagos. I seem to remember a couple of camera shots with the trees like that.
As for getting the Nurburgring corner RebellionLola, it was the combination of the bollard, the dip at the apex (which I'm used to from playing F1 2011) and the grandstand in the background. Plus, the fact that the latest picture of the track was with 2011 cars.
why is this so easy ?

Originally planned for 46 senior attached living units similar to duplexes, the complex is now slated for 48 multi-family senior unit apartments, situated off 154th Terrace, just across from the Dollar General Store in downtown Basehor. The facility is planned to be three stories in height and will meet all of the architectural standards of the community.
Amenities of the complex include a community room, a FEMA storm shelter and enclosed parking garages. Occupancy will take place sometime in the first half of 2016, depending on the weather the area experiences this winter. However, the developer "will move dirt this year," according to Lloyd Martley, city administrator and police chief.
Earlier this fall, in accordance with regulations, certified letters were sent to all current residents within 200 feet of the proposed development plat. An additional mailing via regular US Mail went out to all residents between 201 and 1000 feet of the development. Those letters detailed the plans and sought public input.
A hearing of the Planning Commission took place Tuesday at the Basehor City Hall; the public was invited to learn more and provide input into this project. The City Council will discuss and vote on the proposed changes to the Cornerstone project at the Oct. 19 regular City Council meeting.

Audio-Technica is a relatively new contender in the sound device market, but at the same time, they do have a lot of old school fundamentals ingrained within their devices. Started in the year 1962, the company recently celebrated their 50th anniversary with the release of multiple new products. What is noteworthy with this company is that they were among the first to produce wireless microphones, along with other giants within the industry. Quite recently, they've taken an interest in professional headphones and other mixer gear. Once prominent example is the ATH M-50 Monitor headphones.
The beauty and the tragedy to these headphones is that they are very well balanced, but music mixers might find it a little lacking. You see, while they do boast some very good sound with a balanced and wholesome output, there isn't much detail to it. Audiophiles who have to work within a budget will find this pair very satisfying, but might also find that their tracks are somewhat reduced in quality. The properties that this pair has might not be the ones mixers and professionals seek out in their gear. However, start-ups might find that there is enough here to make a decent sounding song.
When you open up the box, you will surely notice the long and sturdy cord. In fact, there are two versions you can buy according to your needs. The coiled version reaches about 10 feet, while as the straight cord pulls out to 11 feet worth of range. The pair also boasts a closed and isolated pair of cups, which are designed to keep sound from escaping. However, there is some leakage to the cups, making it a littler harder to bring this headset around in public places. It's a bit of a shame that the pair doesn't have a carrying case it can be cumbersome to carry these things over distances.
The Impedance magnitude rating states that the headphones rate around 38 ohms. However, the headset does not boast active noise isolation, so it allows a small amount of outside interference. The closed design does do its best to cut out any excess sounds from the outside world, but in doing so, the cups can get a little hot over time. The full headset itself weighs around 11 ounces, so it is a negligible weight for people who want to walk around with this pair. As was stated above, the cups can swivel outward or into the headband making them compact.
The AT-M50s feature a lot of good stuff in a great package. They are compact and lightweight, so you can move around with relative ease, and if you get the coiled version, without tangles. At the same time, they boast sound that is almost akin to more expensive, professional monitor headsets. All this for the low price of $150, and you get a very good bargain for a mid-high tier headset.
The sound isn't as detailed as people might like and while loss-less tracks don't lose out in any respect, they do lack that analytical sound which professionals might need.

Naomi Osaka Withdraws: What Happens to French Open Bets Following the News?
Photo by Julian Finney/Getty Images. Pictured: Naomi Osaka
May 31, 2021, 06:11 PM EDT
Naomi Osaka was one of the most popular bets at this year's French Open, but without even losing a match she won't cash in for bettors.
Osaka announced on Monday she was withdrawing from the tournament.
"I think now the best thing for the tournament, the other players and my well-being is that I withdraw so that everyone can get back to focusing on the tennis going on in Paris," she wrote in a statement on Twitter.
The statement comes after she announced she would not be speaking to the press at the tournament.
pic.twitter.com/LN2ANnoAYD
— NaomiOsaka大坂なおみ (@naomiosaka) May 31, 2021
From a sports betting perspective, this has a major impact on the tournament.
Osaka was one of the most popular bets at most sportsbooks, including the second-most bet player to win on the women's side at PointsBet, where she had 29% of total dollars wagered. She had 13% of all bets at DraftKings and was the second-biggest liability at BetMGM.
Avoiding her in the bracket will be a massive advantage for others on her side of the bracket, including Serena Williams.
For bettors holding an Osaka ticket, the ruling is technically a loss, which is how William Hill is handling it.
"Osaka futures stand because she played a full match before withdrawing," spokesman Michael Grodsky said.
DraftKings and FanDuel, meanwhile, are refunding all futures tickets on Osaka, according to The Action Network's Darren Rovell.
While bettors won't be able to hit the +1200 odds Osaka had at winning, some books will surely use this as a promotion. As an example, PointsBet is refunding all Osaka outright bets with free play.
All other futures bets on who will win the tournament stand.
As of early Monday afternoon, all women's futures were off the board.

When you want help with eczema and the itchiness it produces, pick moisturizers that are ointments or creams. These are better for this type of condition. You could even be able to just use something as simple as petroleum jelly to soften the skin. Make sure whatever you use has no perfumes or alcohol and fragrance free. You should apply moisturizer twice daily.
You need to wear clothing that's loose fitting that is made out of fabrics such as cotton. Avoid itchy materials like wool against the skin.Wash your clothing in detergents that are mild, natural laundry soap.
Eczema can really make you uncomfortable a serious itch. This can harm your skin and sometimes cause infection. Use as much moisturizer often and use a cold compresses to relieve flare-ups.
Avoid stress whenever possible.Eczema flare-ups can often flares up when you are under stress. If you're under stress, use exercise, meditation or some other form of relaxation to relieve it. This can keep eczema outbreaks to a minimum.
This ingredient that can create problems for people suffering from eczema. You should always check the ingredient list even if the sunscreen says it is PABA-free. You can also go the route of talking to your doctor about some prescription sunscreen if you have problems finding one.

Fatality Accident
On June 4, 2017 at 3:53 am, Deputies were advised that five horses were loose on U.S. Highway 83 near Echo School Road. Upon arrival the Deputy found approximately thirty horses running all over the highway. As the Deputy was attempting to move the horses off the road, a northbound 2006 Chevrolet Aveo crested a hill and struck three of the animals, near mile marker 65.
The driver was identified as forty-nine year old Shawn Tallmon of North Platte, NE. Mr. Tallmon had three passengers, his wife forty-six year old Dawn Tallmon, son nine-teen year old Randy Tallmon and eighteen year old Emily Pellegrin all of North Platte.
Mrs. Tallmon was transported from the scene with life threatening injuries and was pronounced dead at Great Plains Health. The other three occupants suffered non-life threatening injuries and were taken to Great Plains Health for treatment. Alcohol or drugs do not appear to be a factor. The investigation continues.

Before we get into this post, a quick note on Kerry Collins… During my own career you had to respect his arm and ability to beat the defense with the deep ball. He wasn't easy to game plan for and he forced you to take a couple steps back in your alignment just to stay on top of the vertical game. And it speaks volumes as a player when you can last in this league for 16 seasons.
Now let's discuss the current QB situation down in Tennessee with the veteran moving on into retirement. Sure, there are other options for the Titans (names we will get to), but with Collins this club had a solid option to play at QB. A smart move to bring him back as your No.1 after the lockout has wiped out the entire offseason.
ICONThe Titans can hand the ball over to Locker or look to make a move for a veteran QB once the lockout is lifted.
In a normal league year I would hand the ball over to Jake Locker–even with Collins back in the mix. Whether or not we agree that the rookie had the value of a top ten pick, he would still have gone through an entire offseason, complete with OTAs, mini-camps and coaching sessions in the meeting room.
Drill the offense, install the base packages and work on technique.
I would get him on the field in September. Why? Because I believe the best way to develop QBs in the NFL is by real game experience. Let them take some shots, learn from mistakes and start to mature as pro football players.
However, can that really happen now as the NFL lockout spins through another week with more promises of false hope from both the players and the owners?
Probably not, and when you look at the next name in line, Rusty Smith, it is obvious that the Titans and new coach Mike Munchak are going to have to look elsewhere.
Maybe the Titans can scoop up Matt Hasselbeck if he doesn't return to Seattle (a move I would put at the top of the list), or look to make a deal with Washington for Donovan McNabb. Sure, there are other possibilities such as Marc Bulger, etc. Veterans that can keep the No.1 job warm until Locker is ready to play some ball.
The point here is that the Titans have to bring someone in. Like I said above, there is no doubt that I would turn the game plan over to the rookie if we weren't sitting around and waiting for football to start due to this lockout. But I have my doubts now that he is ready to be thrown into the fire of a regular season Sunday in this league.
And with Collins hanging up his cleats, the Titans have to act quickly and make a key move once the lockout is lifted. Not the ideal script for a first year head coach with a rookie QB and no real depth at the position on the roster.

Ireland kick off Mick McCarthy's second stint as manager with unconvincing win over Gibraltar
It was a shaky start for Mick McCarthy's side Credit: Reuters
Luke Edwards, at Victoria Stadium
23 March 2019 • 7:13pm

Ireland Football Team
Gibraltar 0 Republic of Ireland 1
There is nothing like a bold statement to launch a new era and this was certainly nothing like one. Rarely can a victory have been so unconvincing as the Republic of Ireland's limitations were brought sharply back into focus against Gibraltar.
This was a muddled evening all round, with rumours that the FAI's controversial chief executive John Delaney had been removed before the game replaced after it with a statement saying he had merely taken on a new role after 15 years.
At the end of a week in which it emerged Delaney had loaned the FAI 100,000 euros in mysterious circumstances he will now become the FAI's first Executive Vice President as a result of a management review commissioned last month with, as yet, undefined powers. Delaney is a divisive and unpopular figure, but he has shown remarkable durability.
If that left Ireland's supporters scratching their heads in bemusement, so did this abject performance against the weakest team in their group. A supposedly simple opening for Mick McCarthy, in his second spell as manager, turned into a far tougher examination of Ireland's own shortcomings
Relief for Ireland as they found the net Credit: Reuters
Gibraltar, as you would expect from an overseas territory with a population of just over 30,000, have struggled since they were recognised as an international team, yet they have learned how to defend.
Much like the territory itself, perched on a strategically important edge of the Iberian Peninsula, the Gibs are set up to survive a siege and Ireland simply do not have the armoury to blast anyone away.
On a plastic pitch, stuck between a rock and an airport, Gibraltar looked far more comfortable playing in a strong wind and had it not been for a superb save from Ireland's goalkeeper Darren Randolph at the start of the second half to keep out Roy Chipolina's header, this could have turned into disastrous evening.
"This was all set up for an upset, playing in a gale on a plastic pitch against a team with nothing to lose," said McCarthy. "It was a horrible game and I didn't enjoy any of it until the final whistle.
"The conditions did play a part, you can't deny it makes a difference, so I'm just glad to get the win, the three points and move on."
With the Irish media distracted by a story that the Football Association of Ireland's chief executive, John Delaney, is moving aside to take on a new role after 15 controversial years, so too were the team as Julio Ribas' side – ranked 194 in the world, just below Bangladesh and just above Brunei – coped with Ireland's threat with embarrassing ease.
Liam Walker of Gibraltar almost put the home side ahead in the opening minutes Credit: PA
Scoring goals has been a long-standing problem for the Irish and tellingly, the best save Gibraltar's goalkeeper Kyle Goldwin had to make – and it was a brilliant one – came when he somehow managed to claw a header from one of his own defenders over the bar.
The speed with which Ireland ran out of ideas trying to break Gibraltar's resistance highlighted all the same failings that undermined former manager Martin O'Neill. The problem is Ireland are an international team that normally operates like Gibraltar, cautious, defensive and hoping to nick a goal from somewhere. Asked to attack and play on the front foot, they were clueless.
At least McCarthy did not pretend this was anything more than it was, a win secured by a team playing badly, with one moment of quality involving David McGoldrick, who set up Jeff Hendrick to guide a shot into the bottom corner.
They were about the only positives McCarthy could take. The fact he felt he he had to sacrifice a striker, Sean Maguire, for a midfielder, Harry Arter, to cling on for a win against a team of amateurs, some of who play in Manchester for West Didsbury and Chorlton in the ninth tier of English football, summed things up.

The Palace House Stakes is a Group 3 flat horse race in Great Britain open to horses aged three years or older. It is run over a distance of 5 furlongs (1,006 metres) on the Rowley Mile at Newmarket in late April or early May.

History
The event is named after Palace House, a famous building in Newmarket on the site of a royal residence of King Charles II.

The race was established in 1961, and the first running was won by Galivanter. It was given Group 3 status when the present grading system was introduced in 1971.

The Palace House Stakes is currently held on the opening day of Newmarket's Guineas Festival meeting. It is run on the same day as the 2000 Guineas.

Text: As you can see from the screenshot I just uploaded, the new rendering code is in place and seems to work pretty well. Interaction is still somewhat limited since most of the event handling code (keyboard and mouse, redraw based on invalidation etc) is not yet implemented, but the rendering code itself works correctly.
The new implementation is also much more efficient and smaller, it is now only 60 % of the original code size and has the possibility to be fully hardware accelerated (either through the built-in OpenGL layers manager once Mesa is available, or a custom layer manager based on the current compositing capabilities of AmigaOS 4.1).
Stay tuned for more updates and most likely a new test version pretty soon.

Pioneering MFT research featured in national cancer exhibition
News posted 26 October, 2021
Pioneering care and research across Manchester University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) features in a new national exhibition on cancer breakthroughs.
The exhibit, 'Cancer Revolution: Science, innovation, and hope', opens Friday 22 October at the Science and Industry Museum in Manchester. Supported by Cancer Research UK (CR-UK), it explores the past, present, and future of how cancer is prevented, detected, and treated, through never-before-seen objects, personal stories, films, photography, and interactive exhibits.
MFT's Lung Health Check (LHC) programme, including a spotlight on the work of LHC's Dr Phil Crosbie, Honorary Consultant in Respiratory Medicine, is featured in the exhibition, along with Kelly Watts, Advanced Therapy Haematology/Oncology Research Nurse Specialist at the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital, for in her role supporting patients undergoing CAR-T therapy.

Dr Crosbie, who is also Early Detection Programme Co-Lead for the NIHR Manchester Biomedical Research Centre (BRC), and Senior Lecturer at The University of Manchester (UoM), said: "Sadly Manchester has the highest rate of deaths for lung cancer in the country. The Manchester Lung Health Check programme has helped bring cancer screening closer to communities and saved lives by identifying and treating the disease sooner.
"The project has gone from a successful pilot to a full clinical service across the city, as well as being the blueprint for a potential national lung cancer screening service. We're extremely proud to have a developed this in Manchester, and we're excited to share our work alongside other cancer breakthroughs for this fantastic exhibition."
The Manchester Lung Health Check programme – run from MFT's Wythenshawe Hospital – invites current or former smokers for check-ups to spot signs of lung cancer sooner, using mobile screening trucks in supermarket car parks and other convenient locations. Launched in 2016 as research study in collaboration with UoM, it detected cancer in one in every 23 people screened, allowing patients to receive life-saving treatment.
The model was so successful that in 2019, NHS England announced lung health checks were to be trialled across England. The LHC team were also awarded BMJ cancer care team of 2019, while their QuEST study – the precursor study which recruited patients for check-ups in North Manchester – was named as one of the top-recruiting cancer studies in 2020.
Cancer Revolution Exhibit
CAR-T therapy is a new type of personalised medicine used to treat certain cancers such as leukaemia and lymphoma, and uses patients own immune cells modified to target the disease. In Manchester, the therapy is offered to children and adults at RMCH and the Manchester Royal Infirmary. Kelly helps to care for young patients at RMCH's Bone Marrow Transplant Unit who are eligible for CAR-T trials and supports them and their families throughout their journey.
Kelly Watts
Kelly Watts said: "CAR-T therapy is revolutionising treatment for cancer and we're proud MFT is helping to deliver these pioneering treatments for our patients and their families. Thanks to clinical research, more patients now have access to these ground-breaking therapies, who otherwise may have had no options for treatment.
"It's incredibly rewarding supporting families during what can be an extremely difficult and emotional time, and it's great to be able to share our work at this national exhibition."
Katie Dabin, Lead Curator of Cancer Revolution said: "We are immensely proud to be able to bring to life for the very first time the awe-inspiring story of how far cancer treatment has come. Despite the advances in survival that have been made, there are still big questions to address. Why do treatments sometimes stop working? Why does cancer come back in some people but not others? How can we help more people with cancer live better and longer?
"While we can't cancer-proof our lives, more people than ever before can be treated or live with the disease for a long time and we can take agency in the face of it – from speaking more openly about it, being aware of its causes and symptoms, dispelling misconceptions and stigma, and being open to finding out more about it."
The exhibit is free (though booking is recommended) and runs in Manchester until March 2022, before moving to the Science Museum in London. For more information or to book tickets, visit the Science and Industry Museum website.
