What are the best species to target when fishing in Tampa / Clearwater in December? The question can be hard to answer until December actually arrives. During this month last year, Kingfish were being caught almost until January 1st. Big seatrout had arrived, as expected, but with prolonged cold staying away, snook fishing wasn't half bad either. There were some redfish around and a trip to the nearshore reefs might yield a few nice snapper...and, of course, gag grouper are always closer to the beach this time of year. Bottom line. There are decent fishing opportunities, it's just a matter of which one to pursue. Weather and water temperatures will dictate everything.
Large seatrout will always make an appearance by December. As of the writing of this report, a few larger fish have been sighted, but no large schools to speak of. With that said, a cold front is arriving today and this one could be the trigger. Water temps near 60 degrees are certainly low enough to start the invasion of these fish and temperatures have been like this for over a week. Any more cold should throw the switch. Although these large trout are among the smaller fish targeted by Tampa Fishing Guides, they are abundant, reasonably good to eat and are very receptive to hitting artificials. Swim tail plastics on 1/4 ounce heads and minnow imitating plugs are the most popular choices. If whitebait is still in the area, there is no better live bait but select shrimp fished under a bobber or free lined represent a great plan B. Sweep baits through target areas on stronger moving tides for best results.
With lower winter tides, redfish become a bit less accessible although there are certainly fish still around. Over the course of the next month, search out areas with large mullet schools as, if redfish are in the area, they are likely to be with them. A typical approach used by Tampa Fishing Captains, once a mullet school is located, is to set up to reach the front edge of the school and put a spread of baits out, both live and cut, and then wait five or ten minutes. If there is no activity, move up 15 or twenty yards and repeat the process. Patiently work through the mullet schools using this technique and pay attention to water movement indicating larger fish (redfish). Although this approach is time consuming, the rewards can be great if a group of fish is located. With winter's big low tides, pothole fishing can also be productive. Dropping baits in remaining potholes on flats frequented by redfish may uncover a pocket of quality fish.
Snook were caught well into December in 2017 as the month was exceptionally warm. If temperatures stay up, interior mangrove shorelines, spoil islands and canals can all harbor fish. If whitebait can be found, the location process is enhanced by generous chumming.
Nearshore Tampa Fishing Charters for kingfish have been excellent over the last month. There are still reports of fish in the area and, if water temperatures regroup to the mid sixties and schools of thread fin herring stay in residence off the beach, this fishing could continue until the end of the month. Large mackerel have been caught while searching for the kings as well as a smattering of bonita (bonito). Mangrove snapper fishing has historically beed good during this month although the near shore reefs in northern Pinellas County were affected by the red tide late this summer. It's probably worth an exploratory trip out there to see if these fish have repopulated these structures. Gag grouper have moved in to areas inside of 10 miles now and some quality fish are being found...remember that the new length regulation is 24 inches. This season remains open until December 31st.
With the holidays approaching, its a great time to take advantage of some of Tampa's fine family oriented attractions. An age old favorite, Lowry Park Zoo, has Christmas lights, a variety of animals to view and is definitely kid friendly. Another option would be to visit the Saturday Morning Market in St Pete. This is one of the largest outdoor markets in the southeast and a great place to load up on fresh produce for the week. Good luck and good fishing.

Moon Colony by 2025
This excites me terribly: Moon hole might be suitable for colony
Excerpts:
The vertical hole, in the volcanic Marius Hills region on the moon's near side, is 213 feet wide and is estimated to be more than 260 feet deep, according to findings published in Geophysical Research Letters, a journal of the American Geophysical Union.
More important, the scientists say, the hole is protected from the moon's harsh temperatures and meteorite strikes by a thin sheet of lava. That makes the tube a good candidate for further exploration or possible inhabitation, the article says.
"Lunar lava tubes are a potentially important location for a future lunar base, whether for local exploration and development, or as an outpost to serve exploration beyond the Moon," writes the team, led by Junichi Haruyama, a senior researcher with the Japanese space agency JAXA.
"Any intact lava tube could serve as a shelter from the severe environment of the lunar surface, with its meteorite impacts, high-energy UV radiation and energetic particles, and extreme diurnal temperature variations."
Lava tubes have previously been discovered on the moon, but the scientists say the new hole is notable because of its lava shield and because it does not appear to be prone to collapse.
NASA is reportedly working on plans to return to the moon by 2020 and to set up a temporary lunar colony by 2025 as part of the Constellation Program. Funding for the program, however, remains somewhat in question.
The American space agency could not be reached for comment.

Unimaginable, unbelievable, ridiculous movie. I only had one thought in my mind while watching this movie online - 'it is amazing!' I respect such a great energy this movie bring with it. I can't even think about other things while watching Disobedience. Go for it, relax, play the movie and let it move your mind. How something created by such talented director can be not a wonder? Back to [[year]] this movie was so hot that it burned place in my mind for ever. No movie made me so excited while watching, no other movie! Disobedience is that movie, you'll watch many times in your life. Althought not as good as the book, still great as movie.

State Route 69 (SR 69) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of Virginia.  Known as Lead Mine Road, the state highway runs  from SR 636 in Austinville east to U.S. Route 52 (US 52) in Poplar Camp.  SR 69 is the last remnant of a much longer route. At its peak from 1940 to 1945, this route (then numbered State Route 81) ran from State Route 91 at Lodi east via St. Clair Bottom, Sugar Grove, Cedar Springs, Speedwell, Porters Crossroads, and Austinville to today's SR 69. However, it was never fully continuous; portions from Sugar Grove to Cedar Springs and west of Porters Crossroads to east of Austinville were secondary routes. The full length of this route as it existed and was planned is now part of SR 762, part of SR 660, all of SR 650, part of SR 16 (and SR 695, its former alignment at Sugar Grove), all of SR 614, part of SR 749, part of US 21, part of SR 690, a small piece of SR 642, part of SR 619, part of SR 636, and SR 69.

Route description

SR 69 begins at an intersection with SR 636 (Store Hill Road) just south of the village of Austinville on the New River.  The state highway heads east parallel to Poplar Camp Mountain and the Wythe–Carroll county line, which the highway travels atop for a short distance through the hamlet of Bethany.  SR 69 expands to a four-lane divided highway through its diamond interchange with Interstate 77 before reaching its eastern terminus at US 52 (Fort Chiswell Road) in Poplar Camp.

History
From Lodi to north of Troutdale, what later became SR 81 was part of State Route 12 until 1933 and U.S. Route 58 until 1940. Other than the State Route 16 concurrency, which was added to the state highway system in 1931 as part of State Route 113, the first new pieces of the route were added in 1928. These sections ran from State Route 26 (now U.S. Route 21) at Speedwell west to Cedar Springs and from SR 26 north of Speedwell east towards Porters Crossroads for 6.94 miles (11.17 km) to a point west of present SR 642. A 3.50-mile (5.63 km) piece from State Route 15 (now U.S. Route 52 at Poplar Camp towards Austinville, was added in 1930 as State Route 116. This was the last piece of the Lodi-Poplar Camp route to be added to the primary state highway system.

Several other pieces of SR 115 from Cedar Springs north through Rural Retreat were added in 1930 and 1932, but became State Route 90 in the 1933 renumbering; the pieces of SR 115 east of Cedar Springs, plus a proposed extension west to Sugar Grove, became State Route 91. The State Route 91 designation was needed in the 1940 renumbering to match Tennessee's State Route 91 on the former State Route 81, so this State Route 81 designation was used for the former SR 91 from Sugar Grove to Poplar Camp. At the same time, U.S. Route 58 was relocated to the south, and SR 91 was extended southwest and west from Sugar Grove along State Route 16 and former US 58 to Lodi.

The first section of this route to be transferred to the secondary system was from State Route 79 at St. Clair Bottom to SR 16 southwest of Sugar Grove in 1945; the part from St. Clair Bottom west to Lodi became an extension of SR 79. The next year, the piece from US 21 north of Speedwell towards Porters Crossroads became a secondary route, as it was a "stub end primary route that could be transferred with logic" with an annual average daily traffic of 201 in 1941, and the route from Speedwell west to State Route 90 at Cedar Springs became an extension of SR 90.  This left only the present SR 69, which was renumbered in 1958 to avoid conflicting with the new Interstate 81. (The two pieces that became SR 79 and SR 90 are now also secondary routes.)

London Stansted has welcomed its 25 millionth passenger to pass through the airport in the last year, the first time the UK's fourth busiest airport has achieved this significant milestone in its history.
To help celebrate reaching the major landmark, two holidaymakers were surprised with two free flights with Ryanair from London Stansted.
The lucky passengers were Millie Hughes from Braintree and Thea Towers from Chelmsford who were delighted to be presented with a pair of return tickets with Ryanair to any destination on their route network when they checked in for their flight to Palma Majorca last Thursday morning.
Thea and friend Millie are regular users of Stansted and were thrilled to be the airport's milestone passengers.
We are truly gobsmacked to be Stansted's 25 millionth passengers, and to win two free flights has really made this a brilliant day and a fantastic way to start our week away.
To welcome 25 million passengers to Stansted in the last year is a fantastic achievement and a clear reflection of the significant and sustained growth we have experienced at the airport in the four years under MAG's ownership.
"I'd like to thank all 25 million passengers for choosing Stansted in the last 12 months and for helping us achieve this historic milestone, and our highly successful and valued airline partners for driving the growth through their commitment to the airport. I'd also like to pay tribute to our hard-working and loyal staff who have all played their part in helping make Stansted the huge success story it is today.
"With over 190 destinations now available across our extensive and growing route network, and our busiest ever summer season well underway, we expect to welcome around 26.5 million passengers by the end of the financial year as even more passengers choose to fly from Stansted.
As London Stansted's largest airline, Ryanair is pleased to help the airport deliver record passenger numbers and celebrate carrying 25m annual passengers the first time. Since our first Stansted flight in 1989, Ryanair has carried over 230m passengers through the airport and we currently offer over 140 Stansted routes. We look forward to continuing to grow our traffic and network at our largest airport base.

Resume-writing is usually a doc where you are promoting certifications and your functions that match as precisely as you can with all the future business's objectives. You're will be attempting to activate the recruiting officer to phone you for an appointment and truthfully marketing oneself as an item. Nonetheless a large number of people looking for work neglect to recall the resume's purpose; until it pauses using the mass of all the words it is exaggerated by these individuals with useless details. Others contemplate if they acquire them an appointment and include all their major assignments and duties that indirectly it'll communicate with the interviewer. None of those strategies could be effective. Listed here are several problems into once you begin composing resume that would really connect the correct information, to appear. Remove applying acronyms together with abbreviations.
You may ponder over it makes sense to exhibit every one of the recent and significant events within your vocation. But, feel again your resume could appear like it is created in certain form of rule language that's demanding to grasp and can be chucked into waste container by recruiting officer who'll find it advanced to know due to all the padding, to never be observed again. The same thing could be stated for acronyms. In cases where you should employ a composition, use only those which are well known and prevent the others. If you're performing task in a sector preferred for acronyms, like military and the IT earth, implement them as rarely as you may. Resume-writing should be transient and you should be marketed by every single term. Your resume must emphasize in terms of possible to your organization's targets rather than on which you'd completed and achieved. You must be projected by the application you write inside the technique that is great. Keep it far from the application since you were terminated from your occupation once you left a company.
The principle concern is whenever requested in the appointment how exactly to present the termination. A correctly organized application should not be surfaced in by genuinely chatting everything harmful. If you worked under a director which was difficult myessaysamples.com to handle on no account note anything pertaining to it within your resume and whether asked while in the appointment provide an encouraging answer. Interviewers look for hopeful, able persons criticizers and in place of whiners. Make everything that is sure you mention or obtain matches in to the good mindset site. Easy is generally better. The application you create could not be distributed together with amazing once you recall its motive.


Berners, Gerald Hugh Tyrwhitt-Wilson, Baron, 1883-1950-Travel-France-Normandy.
Diplomats -- England -- Biography.
An incredibly witty and charming addendum to First Childhood and A Distant Prospect about an out-of-kilter youth in the late 19th century British Aristocracy, who finds himself in a French Chateau populated by bizarre characters.
Lord Berners (1883-1950) was a composer, novelist, painter, memoirist, conspicuous aesthete and the real life character on whom Nancy Mitford based Lord Merlin in The Pursuit of Love. This versatile peer has been called the English Satie. His ballets have been choreographed by Balanchine and Ashton.
Chapter One The Château de Résenlieu I left Eton at the end of 1899, and in the spring of the following year I went to France, as a first step towards preparing myself for the Diplomatic Service. In the first years of the Twentieth Century, the diplomatic examinations were a good deal more elementary than they became later on, foreign languages being the only subjects that required any very high degree of technical knowledge; and it was customary for embryo diplomats, instead of going to the University after leaving their public schools, to embark on a sort of protracted Grand Tour, spending several months in France, Germany, Italy or Spain in order to get a thorough knowledge of the languages of those countries. In those happy far off cosmopolitan days, when international war still seemed a remote menace, and there were no passports, a large number of private establishments on the continent took in young Englishmen for this purpose. One of these institutions was the Château de Résenlieu in Normandy. It had been strongly recommended to my mother. The Chatelaine, Madame O'Kerrins, was the widow of a French-naturalized Irishman and the daughter of a Comte de Nollent, an impoverished aristocrat who had further impoverished himself by extravagance and unfortunate speculation, so that, when he died, he had little except the Château to leave to his daughter. Monsieur O'Kerrins, who was a scholarly man, had the idea of converting the place into a sort of superior "pension" and after his death Madame O'Kerrins continued to carry on the business alone. I had never been abroad and my excitement increased as the day for my departure approached. Ever since my childhood there had been shaping itself in my mind an idea of foreign countries that endowed them with something of the enchanted atmosphere of fairyland. Among other delights I believed that I should find there freedom from many things that irked me at home, freedom from parental interference, and above all from the tyranny of games and sport. I had often heard foreigners, and particularly the French, criticized for not being sporting, for frivolity and laxity of morals, all of which deficiencies at that time appealed to me. My mother announced her intention of accompanying me to France and personally delivering me into the hands of Madame O'Kerrins. I was getting on for seventeen. My school days were over. I considered that I had reached an age when a certain amount of independence was my due and the implication that I could not be trusted to travel alone was a little humiliating. I also foresaw that the journey would not be made easier by the presence of my mother. In matters which lay outside her own particular sphere, which was that of the household and the hunting field, she was curiously inefficient. A railway journey, even in England, was a source of anxiety to her-and also to me, when I travelled with her. It was always attended by muddles and minor catastrophes. I was relieved to hear that her maid, Dawson, was to accompany us. Dawson was the highly competent type of British lady's maid and, although she had never been out of England and had an insular contempt for foreigners, she would, I knew, be capable of coping with any emergency that might arise. My mother would never admit to any inefficiency on her own part, especially to me, before whom she thought it imperative to keep up the semblance of parental infallibility. She took no advice as to the most convenient mode of reaching our destination. She looked up Résenlieu on the map and decided that the most direct route was via Newhaven and Caen. It was perhaps the most direct route on the map, but it was decidedly the most complicated and uncomfortable. It would have been simpler and quicker to have gone by Paris and one of the shorter channel crossings. However, as I subsequently came to appreciate, my mother's errors of judgement sometimes turned out to be blessings in disguise, and the route she had chosen was by far the most picturesque and romantic method of approach. At the end of the second week in April we set out. The crossing was by night and it was already dark when we got to Newhaven. The boat we found awaiting us must surely have been the smallest of all the channel steamers. It looked hardly seaworthy. There were no private cabins, only a rather dirty saloon that smelt strongly of food and engine-oil. After my mother and Dawson had settled themselves on bunks in the saloon I went up on deck with the idea of making the most of my first experience of going abroad, but any hopes I may have had of conjuring up an adventurous spirit of eighteenth century travel were frustrated by the growing motion of the boat which, although the sea was what is described in weather reports as "moderate," was beginning to rock and toss about in the most alarming manner. I returned to the saloon where I found my mother and Dawson both sound asleep. There were not too many passengers. All of them were French except for an English clergyman and his wife with whom I was sure that my mother would make friends on the following day, if she had not done so already. The French passengers had a good deal to say to one another and were rather noisy. Particularly voluble were two men in mackintoshes and bowler hats. I was mortified to find that I was unable to understand a single word of what they were saying. After a protest from the clergyman they quieted down, and I was able to get to sleep. (Continues...)

The 2 biggest aspects when seeking to purchase a new mattress, is comfort and support. There are a few things which should take place when you lie down. You desire the sinkage and contour to be right, for proper spine alignment.
You also need a mattress to properly support your whole body, as you sleep soundly at night. It's critical to have appropriate alignment as you sleep.

This is along the very same lines, as when we speak about relaxation and support. The same as a mattress shouldn't be too hard, it should also never be too soft.A mattress should be as neutral as it can be, to ensure both your spine and body stay in a neutral place.
The stress factors will irritate, which makes nerves, in addition to the blood. If you find that a great deal of those times you awake, of having pins and needles in your body together with the sensation, this is a sign. And if your mattress is too soft, this may create a sagging effect like a hammock.
While this happens, you can end up with back pain, because of your backbone not being correctly aligned. This is why it's imperative to find a mattress that is close to neutral. You would like your mattress soft in the proper areas, without being too soft.
One of the most missed over attributes of a mattress is the breathability or fever neutrality of the mattress material. Possibly the very best feature of memory foam mattresses is their ability to have the ability to conform to a body. Irregardless, foam mattresses which have diminished layers are known to cause what's called"the toaster result".
Essentially,a mattress catches your temperature,forcing you to rest hot. |What happens in a nutshell, is that a mattress absorbs the body heat; inducing one to sleep hot.} Mattress firms nowadays utilize modern technology, to make special materials.
It's not a big surprise, that if you are in the market for a high quality mattress, it usually comes with a wonderful price tag.It's a big investment to make, so once you buy one, it is vital to find a mattress which will surely last you for years.
It's essential to find a mattress that has been constructed, using a very long time in your mind.

CINCINNATI — Players have been trickling into FC Cincinnati's offices the past week or so, and the fast-approaching inaugural Major League Soccer season "feels very real now," according to head coach Alan Koch.
FC Cincinnati is scheduled to take the pitch for its first official preseason training session Tuesday, following team orientation Sunday night and physicals Monday. After three years in the second division United Soccer League, Cincinnati joins MLS as the league's 24th team this season.
The expansion team has little time to waste as its first preseason game as an MLS club is set for Jan. 30 when FCC plays Eastern Conference foe Montreal Impact at IMG Academy in Florida.
Eleven players -- on what ultimately will be a roster of 30 -- return from last season's USL regular-season championship squad, including Fanendo Adi and Fatai Alashe, who signed from MLS sides in late July. Everyone else is new to Cincinnati, coming from other MLS clubs, different countries or college programs.
Integrating them quickly and developing chemistry on the pitch will be important.
Koch and the others involved in FCC's roster building process had all that in mind when making decisions on who to bring back from last year and how many spots the club could afford to fill with lower division talent already familiar with the staff and city.
Pundits have questioned the decision to bring nine USL players up, in addition to Adi and Alashe, but Koch said each of those players bring value to the team and will help the newcomers transition.
One aspect that will be different for everyone is the opening of the new Mercy Health Training Center in Milford, where FCC hopes to begin training Tuesday. If the weather doesn't cooperate, the team will utilize "The Bubble" indoor practice facility at the University of Cincinnati.
Koch recently went out to the MHTC with members of the operations staff to check out the progress as construction continues at the site and said it "looks awesome." Training fields are ready for use but the facility won't be complete until summer.
The first week of training is most important for getting to know one another and allowing the players time to settle in before heading off to Florida for two weeks. FCC will play three matches there before wrapping up the preseason with exhibitions against two of its former USL rivals (Charleston Battery and Indy Eleven) and two regional MLS rivals in Chicago Fire and Columbus Crew.
The season begins March 2 at Seattle.
As for training sessions, Koch doesn't expect his methods to change much from the way he ran USL practices the past two years.

Change Your Mentality and Respect Girls!
Here again, we want to highlight the problem of social issues against the girls with the help of our platform EnlightenBrains. We want to describe the issue with the help of a story.
This is a story of a middle class family which comprises of a father, mother and their daughter. The family was living very well and was happy in all the way. The daughter also finished her studies and was doing a good job. The father also was earning well from his job but sometimes he used to smoke and drink which was disliked by her wife and daughter. One day there came an offer of marriage for their daughter from a very good and respectable family. The parents asked their daughter whether she was ready for marriage or not. She obeyed her parents and said- 'Yes'. Soon the day of marriage came close, the night before the marriage father gave her daughter two-lakh rupees, saying that to keep it with her. The father also didn't take a single paisa of earnings of her daughter and said her to keep it with herself for future use. On the day of her marriage, the girl said in front of all- 'Father, I want to talk to you and please promise me whatever I will say you will follow it'. Father replied 'Yes'. The daughter said, take back from me two-lakh rupees which you gave me last night and also the savings of three-lakh rupees from the job. This is so because I don't want that after retirement you face problems regarding money. Also I want that from today onward you take the oath in front of us all that from now you will neither smoke nor drink. This made all the persons standing their stunned. The girl although was not the son of their parents but did more than what their son might do.
There are certain other examples which will make us realize that how important are the girls to our society. In some parts of our country, still we can see the gender discrimination, ill treatment of girls and also female infanticide. But in today's world Girl is not a burden for the family, society and country but they are the helping hands of our family, society and country.
Another example of it is, the Olympic Games of 2016, where the boys participants were unable to win a single medal for our country, there the girls participants have won 2 medals for our country. We now should take an oath that we will respect girls, and then only they can live freely in a society.

BRYAN DALLAS Releases self titeld debut album 'DALLAS'
Close your eyes and imagine it's 1988 when bands like Blue Tears, Def Leppard, Firehouse, Winger, Bon Jovi & Danger Danger ruled the playlist around the world, and then fast forward to 2018 and here is this Bryan Dallas doing all that once again. Bryan Dallas native Castro Valley, Callifornia (born Brian Hiner), released his first EP "Over The Edge" back in 2012, only 26 years old. This fivetrack EP was some kind of undergound release and never got the attention it deserved, but Bryan keeps on writing songs both as a session songwriter and for himself. In steps Kelv Hellrazer & Paul Mitch Rudland of AOR Blvd Records, and finally getting Bryan's music out there for the masses, and now six years after the debut EP Bryan finally release his debut album (self titeld). And what an album, this is all hooks and no fillers from start to end. This is a BOMB, a true contender for album of the year. And to make things even MORE interested they decided to do TWO different versions of the album, one European version (AOR Blvd Records) and one Japanese version (AnderStein Music), normally you get one or two Bonus tracks on the Japanese Version but hell no. They decided to go all in and the European version has four bonus tracks and the Japanese version has five bonus tracks (so you can really say it's worth buying both versions). The European version has these bonus tracks:
10. Don't Ever Stop
11. Open Your Heart
12. Over Now
13. Miles Away (Neon Blue Mix)
So let's talk about the album and the songs, here we got an album full of hooks and big choir that would have made Mutt Lang wet his pants. Songcrafting at it's best and i hear a lot of Gregg Fulkerson in his songwriting. I do understand why Kelv Hellrazer said this "The most exciting artist I've worked with since Poison and White Lion...He has a massive buzz , the boys' got so many songs ..".and looks like a star..." And yes, I could not agree more, he is spot on. This kid has the whole package, great songs with massive hooks and the look to be the posterboy. As a DJ myself this is a wet dream for me because this album has it all, massive songs with great choruses and no fillers, I even find it hard to just pick ONE song for my DJ playlist. The album opens with "Rock N Roll Never Dies" and you get the Def Leppard move from the first note, an instant favorite. Second track "This Love" was the first song I ever heard with Bryan (this one was on the EP as well) and boy have I played it a lot! Yes, this one is on MY playlist and it will stay there fore sone time because it has it all, this is a HIT (well, it would be if mainstream radio picked up the song), it has a modern production without loosing its 80's Melodic Rock vibe. Third song "Rock You Like A Bomb", here we have a tune that screams Reckless Love or even Steel Panther, this song is a true party song. "Bring The Light", this song was also on the EP but I see the point of having it on the album because this song is a KILLER and yes, also one of those that sticks, I find my self singing along to the classic phrase "Better chrash and burn then to fade away"... Another of my favorites is "I Close My Eyes", this is a powerballad that would fit any Radio station even those who don't play "Hard Rock", Joe Elliot wish he wrote this. Anothe Favorite of mine is the Japanese bonus track "Forever", I don't get why they have this as a bonus track because this is one of the best songs I've heard, powerballad that stands out. But don't let this stops you from buying the European version because instead, it has the song "Open Your Heart", and damn that is just another instant favorite. A Modern AOR track with a great lyric (yes he sings about us DJ's, finally someone who gives us some credit "LOL"), well I know this song will go on my playlist. If I should say something negative of the album, well that would be the last bonus track on the European version of the song "Miles Away (Neon Blue Mix)", a more "rock" version of the track and I don't get the point of it since the original version were som much better. But in total, this album is a must have in the collection and if you are a collecter you need BOTH versions, this album is all about the hooks... ...I know for a fact that I will have this album on my top 10 when the year ends. If this album would have been released back in the 80's well then you would have seen the videos all over MTV, If you are a fan of all previously mentioned bands then this is safe to say that you won't be dissapointed.
Track list (Japan Edition):
1. Rock N Roll Never Dies
2. This Love*
3. Rock You Like A Bomb
4. Bring The Light*
5. Rip It Up
6. I Close My Eyes*
7. Lay It All On The Line
8. Miles Away
9. I Wanna Buy You A Star
Japan Bonus Tracks
11. Heaven Down
12. Forever
13. Rock Ain't Dead
14. Feel The Music

What to see in London besides the fashion this LFW
Your bespoke guide
9/14/14, 7:00 AM 2014-09-14T07:00:59+04:00
As fashion week moves from New York to the other side of the Atlantic, Buro 24/7 has uncovered some new places and sources of entertainment, aside from the fashion, that one can go and experience in London over the next few days
Although the capital of Great Britain was promised rain this week, do not despair as the weather is still warm – a good reason to throw on your Nikes and explore the magical city after attending the myriad of upcoming fashion shows...
Soho Oyster House
Freshly opened last week on Kingly Street, the Soho Oyster House is the latest creation of restaurateurs The Wright Brothers. The Oyster House will provide you with a range of the freshest seafood, served to you in a delicious and exciting way. The new eatery is small and can only hold 35 people, so it's better to be on the safe side and make a reservation.
The Club Room at Bob Bob Ricard
Also newly opened is the glamourous Club Room, an ideal place for lively dining, music and people watching, especially on the weekend. The 74-seater restaurant serves Russian and British fusion cuisine and is located at the stylish address of Upper James Street, Soho.
Dirty Burger
This Summer, in the artsy area of Shoreditch, the district received a new eating institution called Dirty Burger – conceptualised by the same people behind Soho House. The kitchen only serves burgers, fries, doughnuts, rich milkshakes and some special breakfast dishes.
Tom's Kitchen
With four locations in London, Tom's Kitchen is the go-to eatery of London Fashion Week as there's one conveniently located at Somerset House. Chef Tom Aikens – who has recently been awarded a Michelin star – serves up traditional British cuisine, delicious homemade pastries, sandwiches, soups and salads.
Hotpod Yoga
Launched last month, Hotpod Yoga ago is the world's first hot yoga class to be conducted in an inflatable pod. The new fitness concept promises – among other benefits – to burn up to 700 calories per session and is held at various London venues, from Brixton and Fulham to Notting Hill, all inside a blow-up portable pod.
See a movie at Selfridges
Go shopping and watch your favourite movie, what can get better that that? Earlier this month, on the ground floor of Selfridges Oxford Street store, the flagship decided to open its own 60-seater Everyman Cinema. Staying true to its fashionable roots, the department store will be showing movies such as Breakfast at Tiffany's, Woody Allen's Annie Hall, The Devil Wears Prada and many more.
Opening Ceremony's pop-up shop
After a theatrical display instead of a fashion show at New York Fashion Week, Opening Ceremony – a brand that loves to mix things up – has now opened a new pop-up location at the Ace London, Shoreditch. Designed by Max Lamb, the London shop will be located at 106 Shoreditch High Street, and carry Opening Ceremony's men's and women's collections and collaborations.
The Victoria and Albert Museum
This month at the historical Victoria & Albert Museum, there are two must-see exhibitions, 'Horst: Photographer of Style', which brings together the most significant works of the eminent Horst P. Horst, and 'Wedding Dresses 1775-2014', which showcases wedding dresses over the past 250 years. Both must-sees.
For all the admirers of classical paintings, we highly recommend visiting Tate Britain, as the new exhibition 'Late Turner: Painting Set Free' has just opened, showcasing 150 paintings created by English painter William Turner during the 18th century.
Also on display is the largest exhibition of works from Russian painter Kazimir Malevich, which will end on October 26. Titled, 'Malevich', the exhibition will display 420 works from the avant-garde artist, which were imported from Russia, the Unites States, France, and Holland.
New York Fashion Week: Ralph Lauren Spring/Summer 15
New York Fashion Week: Calvin Klein Spring/Summer 15
London Fashion Week: JW Anderson Spring/Summer 15


I worked with a small and super talented group of people to tell the story of a legendary warehouse in Richmond, Virginia. The building was a creative hub filled with musicians, artists and DIY-ers simply looking for a unicorn-like space to hone their craft. It's closing left a hole in the creative community.
I shot, edited, art directed and loved making this documentary.
For more than 40 years, the Garber Door Company called 2201 E. Franklin Street in Richmond, Virginia home. The 6,500 square-foot warehouse was largely unoccupied by the small business, and over the years, it gained a following among musicians and artists seeking makeshift practice spaces to make noise and art.
In June 2016, the Garber Door Company relocated their business and sold the building on Franklin Street, displacing a large portion of the city's musicians and silencing a familiar Richmond sound forever.

New poll shows Clarke Tucker with substantial lead in Democratic primary race for Second Congressional District
A new Talk Business poll is out that shows state Rep. Clarke Tucker with a big lead in the Democratic primary race for the Second Congressional District seat. Tucker is around 30 points ahead of his rivals, but nearly a third of those polled remain undecided.
Tucker was favored by 41 percent of the likely Democratic primary voters polled. Trailing him: teacher and activist Gwen Combs with 11 percent, teacher and activist Paul Spencer with 10 percent, and Clinton School of Public Service project manager Jonathan Dunkley with 6 percent. That left 32 percent who did not know.
If the poll proves an accurate predictor of election day, the big question will be whether Tucker can peel off enough undecided voters to top 50 percent and avoid a runoff.
Tucker's opponents have all run to his left, each in their own way vying for the Bernie vote (all three strongly support a "Medicare for All" plank; Tucker supports protecting and expanding coverage through the existing Affordable Care Act but stops short of backing single payer). To the extent there is an anti-establishment element in the primary, this poll suggests it may be split. Of course, a hefty portion of undecided voters remain in a race where even Tucker's name may be unfamiliar to rank-and-file voters outside of his state House district who aren't political junkies.
Tucker, the establishment favorite who has brought in by far the biggest fundraising haul, recently started airing two television ads. Spencer, who has also brought in his own impressive hauls from individual donors (Spencer won't take PAC money), has decided against television advertising, investing instead in field organizing and targeted social media. He released the first in a series of five issue-based 30-second videos last week. "Our ads demonstrate specific policies and how they benefit working families, rather than the vague ideas presented by Rep. Tucker," Spencer's spokesperson stated.
The Talk Business poll, done in conjunction with Hendrix College, has a good track record on local races. This telephone survey of 624 likely Democratic primary voters, was conducted last week, and has a margin of error of 3.9 percent.
For the poll nerds, here's the methodology, via Talk Business:
This survey of 624 likely Democratic primary voters was conducted on Tuesday-Thursday, May 1-3, 2018. The poll, which has a margin of error of +/-3.9%, was completed using live callers via cell phone and IVR survey technology. Respondents were chosen from a random sample of Arkansas Democratic primary voters who voted in at least one of the last three primary elections and whom indicated their likelihood to vote this year. Age was weighted.

Context: the average year-round Arctic sea-ice area is about 8.919 million sq. km. In the Spring of 2016, when the satellite responsible for sea ice measurements degraded and interrupted the data series, the Arctic ice area was down about 11% (about 1/8.919) million sq. km) below the 1978-2008 average for the date. The Special Sensor Microwave Imager and Sounder (SSMIS) on the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) F-17 satellite that provides passive microwave brightness temperatures (and derived Arctic and Antarctic sea ice products) has been providing spurious data since the beginning of April, 2016. The data showed a declining sea ice extent over the 1979 to April 2016 period. (Source: Department of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Illinois.) This graphic is no longer published by the University.
You can also see what the satellite is seeing and Today's Ice versus other recent years from the International Arctic Research Center, showing that this year's ice is well below the average for the warm months.
Analysis: The Arctic sea-ice extent cannot be used alone as an indicator of warming or cooling, because it must be viewed in concert with Antarctica. Also, data only go back to 1979, when satellite sensors and analytical programs could get a handle on measuring sea ice. Even today it has problems, such as dealing with water on ice, as happens after a warm spell. The sensor sees water, not ice, but this does not mean the underlying ice is gone. If the Arctic loses ice, but the global balance is about the same, there is no GLOBAL warming.
More importantly, we must wonder what the satellites would have observed when Roald Amundsen explored and sailed through the Arctic on the small ship Gjøa since the Northwest Passage was open to sailing vessels in 1903-1905, and again in 1940-42 and 1944 (St. Roch), it is possible the recent reduction in Arctic ice is a normal part of the Earth's variable climate.
On the left, the University of Washington Polar Science Center maintains a daily analysis of Sea Ice Volume. It is calculated using the Pan-Arctic Ice Ocean Modeling and Assimilation System (PIOMAS, Zhang and Rothrock, 2003) developed at APL/PSC. Anomalies for each day are calculated relative to the average over the 1979 -2016 period for that day of the year to remove the annual cycle. The model mean annual cycle of sea ice volume over this period ranges from 28,000 km3 in April to 11,500 km3 in September. The blue line represents the trend calculated from January 1 1979 to the most recent date indicated on the figure. Shaded areas represent one and two standard deviations of the residuals of the anomaly from the trend in Fig 1 and standard deviations about the daily 1979-2016 mean.
Analysis: Per UW, Average ice thickness in April 2017 is the lowest on record, going back to 1980.
On the right, the National Snow and Ice Data Center shows a map-based view. "In October2016, Arctic sea ice extent averaged 6.40 million square kilometers (2.5 million square miles), the lowest October in thesatellite record. This is 400,000 square kilometers (154,400 square miles) lower than October 2007, the secondlowest October extent, and 690,000 square kilometers (266,400 square miles) lower than October 2012, the third lowest. The average extent was 2.55 million square kilometers (980,000 square miles) below the October 1981 to 2010 long-term average."
On the bottom left is a graph from the National Sea and Ice Data Center at the U. of Colorado. For April 2017, they report "Throughout the month, sea ice extent was either at daily record lows for the period of satellite observations, or within 100,000 square kilometers (~38,600 square miles) of record low values. At the end of the month, extent was below average in the Barents Sea, the Sea of Okhotsk, and the western Bering Sea, similar to the pattern seen in March. Despite fairly warm conditions, sea ice extent was slightly above average in Baffin Bay."
Analysis: Conventional wisdom (and the IPCC) states that the poles will warm first. Clearly there is no or little change in the Antarctic, but there is apparent reduction in the Arctic. 2012 was the lowest year and 2017 recovered but remains statistically low - just below 80% of the observations since 1981. What does this tell us? The Arctic alone cannot be used as an indicator of warming or cooling, because it must be viewed in concert with the Antarctic. Also, data only goes back to 1979, when satellite sensors and analytical programs could get a handle on measuring sea ice. Even today the technology has problems, such as dealing with water on ice, as happens after a warm spell. The sensor sees water, not ice, but this does not mean the underlying ice is gone. If the Arctic gains or loses ice, but the global balance is about the same, there is no global cooling or warming. Arguments attributing various rationales for global sea ice being relatively unchanged are not convincing.
It is possible the reduction in Arctic ice is not an indicator of global warming, since it was balanced by record high Antarctic ice levels. The return of Arctic sea ice in 2008 to more normal levels and Antarctica remaining generally near the average has received little attention. In November 2016, The Cryosphere journal published a peer-reviewed study by Dr. Jonathan Day showing that Antarctic sea ice extent is unchanged from 100 years ago, as recorded by early explorers. Thus, when the Arctic NW passage was open as it is nearly today, the Antarctic was also as it is today. Since the models cannot explain how this is possible, this points to there possibly being some fundamental flaw in the hypothesis.

We are currently in Vegas for a trade show and this got us thinking, what are the best steakhouses in Vegas? Here is a list that we compiled. Any we missed that are your favorite?
1. SW Steakhouse – Wynn – This steakhouse has a great view of the Lake of Dreams and gives you a perfect view to watch the water & light show that happens every 30 minutes (8:30pm-1am). The steaks are out of this world and if you are into celebrity spotting then this is definitely the place for you! In our few times going there we have seen Welterweight Champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. & NBA All-Star Kevin Durant.
2. N9NE Steakhouse – Palms – Although the Palms isn't as popular as it once was N9NE still remains one of our favorite steakhouses in Las Vegas. It's got a modern, funky vibe that you rarely get at other steakhouses. We have never left this place disappointed. They serve a great Moscow Mule! It's one of the few places in Vegas that serves the Mule as it is intended to be served…in a copper mug. We assume most places don't do this as you can carry your drinks everywhere, so I'm sure there would be a lot of stolen mugs.
Tip: After dinner ask the hostess for free passes up to Ghostbar. Enjoy a cocktail and a great view of the strip.
3. Stack – Mirage – We kind of stumbled on this place back in August when we were walking through the Mirage. We never planned to eat here, but we were hungry and were looking for a nice steakhouse, so we thought we would give it a try. We are sure glad we did! When we were in Vegas for Thanksgiving we decided to eat here again to make sure it wasn't a one time fluke. The second time was just as good as the first!
The only steak I have ever and will ever order here is the 24oz Tomahawk Rib Eye Steak! I'm sure all of their steaks are amazing, but I have only ordered this one and would order it again in a heartbeat!
4. Vic & Anthony's – Golden Nugget – This place is a great change up if you are looking for more of the "old school" Vegas feel. It's a smaller dinning room, but if you have a larger group ask for a private room as the atmosphere is great and the servers take great care of you. We've only been here once, but we always catch ourselves reminiscing about that old school atmosphere.
5. STK – The Cosmopolitan – If you're looking for a steakhouse with a nightclub feel then STK is the place for you. This one makes the list due to the fact that it is so much different than any other steakhouse in Vegas. Loud music plays as you enjoy your food and the bar area turns into a dance club later in the night. If you're looking for a quiet dinner then this isn't the place for you. Definitely a unique experience!
Other great steakhouses in Vegas: Carnevino, Jean-Georges, Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steakhouse.

Student crypto crime-fighting league forms
Cryptocurrency intelligence firm CipherTrace will provide education and tracking tools to students for hands-on training solving real thefts and scams
By Leo Jakobson / January 13, 2020 /
Cryptocurrency intelligence firm CipherTrace has announced a program to equip and train college students to investigate cryptocurrency scam and fraud cases.
CipherTrace teamed up with the student-founded Blockchain Acceleration Foundation in California and Mexico, as well as the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey, Calif., and Middlesex University, London, to create the CipherTrace Defenders League, the Santa Barbara-based firm said in a release today.
The rather splendiferously named group will provide undergraduate and graduate students with training, software, and certifications to enable them to trace cryptocurrency thefts and fraud, as well as help recover assets.
By the end of September, there had been $4.4 billion worth of cryptocurrency lost to theft and scams in 2019 alone, CipherTrace reported.
The company is only one of several recent examples of cryptocurrency and blockchain firms reaching out to universities to help create and fund blockchain education.
On Jan. 2, Nikolai Mushegian, a former chief architect of the MakerDAO project, donated $1.4 million worth of MKR to fund graduate research in the decentralized finance field at Carnegie Mellon university.
Blockchain and cryptocurrency accelerator and venture capital firm MouseBelt recently donated $1 million to three top University of California campuses to help create formal courses and fund research projects in the industry. In October, the company expanded its MouseBelt University program after partnering with 13 firms and organizations including the Stellar Development Foundation, TRON, and Hedera Hashgraph.
Capeless crusaders
The students will focus on small losses that are typically ignored by law enforcement agencies, gaining both experience and class credit. To support the initiative, CipherTrace has donated $4.3 million worth of its full commercial cryptocurrency forensics and tracking software, as well as free CipherTrace Certified Examiner Training, or CTCE, courses.
"We've experienced a significant increase in requests for investigative and analytic support for fraud and theft cases," Pam Clegg, the director of investigations and education for CipherTrace, said in the release "The CipherTrace Defenders League will be an elite corps of blockchain-knowledgeable students who can conduct smaller-scale investigations. Their objective will be to produce actionable intelligence and evidence that can be used to recover stolen funds and ultimately prosecute those criminal actors responsible for the losses."
CipherTrace will hold CTCE training courses in Monterey and London. The courses are part of a larger round of cryptocurrency-tracking boot camps CipherTrace announced recently. Others will be held in Frankfurt, Singapore, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York.
The Middlebury Institute's Financial Crime Management master's degree program "aims to equip the next generation of compliance and intelligence professionals with the most state-of-the-art skill set," Professor Moyara Ruehsen of the graduate school, which is part of Vermont's Middlebury College, said in a statement "The CipherTrace Defenders League provides our students with hands on experience researching and solving live financial crime cases using cutting-edge tools, allowing them to hone their skills while also performing a valuable service."
The Blockchain Acceleration Federation member schools include UCLA, USC, and Caltech, as well as the National Autonomous University of Mexico
"The students of the Blockchain Acceleration Foundation are passionate, educated and motivated to help grow the crypto economy," said Cameron Dennis, president and founder of the Blockchain Acceleration Foundation. "This will provide students valuable real-world blockchain analytics experience using industry leading cryptocurrency tools to help victims recover stolen and scammed funds."
