Do CIT Programs Help You Get Into College?
More than ever, children's summer experiences are focusing on academic programs, intensive sports camps, and internships, all with the goal of preparing children for college, and more importantly, college applications. Here at Camp Quinebarge, we offer a traditional, fun, CIT leadership program for 16 year olds – that may help your child's college application stand out, and even prepare them for the independence of college life in a safe, supervised setting. Our Program isn't just a leg-up for college; it's a fun, fulfilling experience where teenagers develop life skills and make lifelong friendships.
Camp Quinebarge's Counselor-in-Training (CIT) Leadership Program offers the best of both worlds: fun, friendship, and lifetime memories at summer camp, plus skill- and leadership-building, and an addition to a college application that will stand out. We are also happy to give CITs volunteer hours if their high school or college requires them. If you ask us can CIT Programs help you get into college, our answer is yes.
Cabin and Activity Support – CITs assist counselors at activities and in cabin groups, mentor under counselors, and are given the chance to lead on their own, with the supervision and support of adult staff right there if they need it.
Leadership Development – Through special 'leadership development sessions', our CITs learn what it means to be a leader, and how to effectively work with children or their peers in a leadership role. We focus on group discussions and activities to teach leadership through experiential learning.
Legacy Projects – CITs give back to Quinebarge by designing and completing a Legacy Project each summer. In the past, these have included our Gaga Pit and CIT Garden. The CITs develop the idea, plan and execute their projects, requiring teamwork, decision making and organization, the exact types of skills that are important for adults and in their future careers.
While a summer job or other short-term program may provide some of those things, our CIT program encompasses many of the traits admissions officers are looking for. To see a 16-year old commit their entire summer to a residential program, where they not only develop skills but give back to their community and act as leaders is no small achievement.
Let's face it – while summer jobs are great learning experiences, not all of them are fun. Our CIT Program, though, is! CITs work together and bond as a group – they spend time off, overnight trips, and free time in each other's company, forming close friendships. They reconnect with friends from previous years, and find fulfillment in helping campers achieve their goals or try something new. But most importantly, they go home with three things that the average summer job won't provide: a newfound sense of confidence, responsibility, and independence; warm memories they will look back on for decades; and friendships that will last a lifetime.


Ever wondered what is an mBTC or uBTC is equal to? Don't know how to convert uBTC to mBTC or mBTC to BTC and vice versa. In this post we will try to explain bitcoin conversions. First of all, mBTC stand for mili bitcoin and uBTC stands for micro bitcoin. Now crack down the mathematics of bitcoin units.
Bitcoin price is booming as April winds down, reaching a high of $1,311.9 (and climbing) on the Bitstamp Price Index (BPI). As it stands, bitcoin is within $50 of its all-time high of $1,350, scaled last month.
A pile of Bitcoin slugs sit in a box ready to be minted by Software engineer Mike Caldwell in his shop on April 26, 2013 in Sandy, Utah.
Bitcoin has been on a volatile roller coaster this past week. The cryptocurrency hit an all-time high of $11,395 on Nov. 29 before losing over one-fifth of its value, dropping as low as $9,000 at one point on Nov. 30.
Despite the drop, bitcoin is still up over 900 percent year-to-date. So what exactly is bitcoin and how is it being used?
The graph presents the evolution of bitcoin price index from July 2015 to September 2017. The bitcoin price index is an average of bitcoin prices across leading global exchanges. The bitcoin index value for end of August 2017 was 4,349.29 U.S. dollars. More information on bitcoin and other crypto-currencies can be found in our Statista Report 2017 .
In the long-term, experts such as John McAfee and James Altucher believe that the price of Bitcoin will reach one million dollars.� But there are others that believe that Bitcoin is one of the biggest financial bubbles in history and that it will eventually end in an absolutely horrible crash.
More than $1 billion dollars worth of a digital currency known as "bitcoins" now circulate on the web - an amount that exceeds the value of the entire currency stock of small countries like Liberia (which uses "Liberian dollars"), Bhutan (which uses the "Ngultrum"), and 18 other countries.
So what is a "bitcoin," and why would anyone use it?
Bitcoin soared to a new high above $4,300 today, rising more than 28% over the past week. The digital currency has now more than quadrupled in value from around $997 at the start of the year. $1 invested in bitcoin seven years ago is now worth over $1.4 million .
Happy New Year from everyone at DCEBrief!
I don't know if you know James Altucher, but he predicted Bitcoin to be at one million dollars in 2020.
It made me think about John McAffee who said he will eat his own d*** on television if BTC will not reach 5000 dollars end of 2017.
By the way McAffee also predicted 500 000 dollars BTC in the 3 next years.
I remember laughing when I saw the news, and I didn't believe it.
You've read about - or heard about - Bitcoin, cryptocurrency, and blockchain in the news. You're smart enough to see where it's headed. And you want in on the opportunities to create some serious wealth... right? Great. Because that is what this conference is about.
Something that was confusing for me in the beginning with Bitcoin was the different denominations and their values. So I decided to post a brief explanation of how this works for anyone else who didn't follow it.
Bitcoin is a form of digital currency, created and held electronically.Like dollars or euros - they're produced by people, and increasingly businesses, running computers all around the world, using software that solves mathematical problems. Now 1 BTC price�1063.82 US Dollar.
What Is Future Bitcoin ?
Virtual currencies, or digital cash, are gaining popularity as a new way to purchase goods or services. They are not regulated or issued by a central bank. The most popular virtual currency is Bitcoin, which soared above $1,000 for the first time on Wednesday.
Bitcoin is an evolutionary adaptation of money. It is changing the way the world conducts commerce,and it will soon spawn a new mode of international exchange, replacing many national currencies with a global single currency.

Here's a presentation I prepared personally outlining the compelling case for investing in Hong Leong Finance. It's my second best idea with regards to Singapore equities this year and I hope you enjoy it.
The underlying idea is simple, Hong Leong Finance (HLF) trades at a significant discount to book value. If you look at the long term track record of the company, it is not unreasonable for us to expect the company to earn at least a 1% return on assets, and trade at at least tangible book value. Check the presentation out for more info.

Canadian record equaled in Maple Leaf Trot
MILTON, ON - August 31, 2019 - Guardian Angel As continued his dream harness racing season with a Canadian record equaling victory in Saturday's $600,000C Maple Leaf Trot at Woodbine Mohawk Park. The Anette Lorentzon trained five-year-old was moved to the top in the second-quarter by driver Tim Tetrick and never looked back to win by half a length in 1:50.4. "I got away in a real good spot there early, and then I had to make a decision," said winning-driver Tetrick. "I thought my horse was the best tonight, I really did off last week's performance and he proved that he was." The betting public couldn't separate elimination winners Guardian Angel As and Crystal Fashion, sending the trotters off as co-favourites at 9/5. The opening-quarter action saw mares Manchego and Emoticon Hanover blast from the outside towards the lead. Manchego held top spot through an opening-panel of :26.4 before Guardian Angel As leaped from third to first and led by the half in :55. Crystal Fashion was angled out from fourth at the half and trotted first-up to the leader's wheel on the far turn. Despite never seeing the rail after starting from post-10, World champion Atlanta was situated second-over by driver Yannick Gingras and set to deliver another gritty performance. After a three-quarter clocking of 1:23, Guardian Angel As led the field into the lane and attempted to create separation on his rivals. Atlanta tipped off cover and did all she could to track down the leader. Fans roared as the trotters stormed home with Guardian Angel As recreating last week's elimination victory over Atlanta by refusing to budge for a Track, Stakes and Canadian record equaling time of 1:50.4. Guardian Angel As, who earlier this season set a World Record on a half-mile track, held off Atlanta in last Saturday's elimination by three-quarters of a length. "When he's on the front he relaxes a lot and then when he sees one coming, he keeps going," said Tetrick. "I can let him relax up there and when he sees one, he fights off and wants to go, so I was very confident." Triple-millionaire Marion Marauder spent most of the mile on the outside and rallied from fourth-over to finish third. Crystal Fashion crossed the line fourth. Guardian Angel As has led the older trotting division this season and now sports stunning numbers of seven wins and $699,434 earned in 10 starts. The Maple Leaf Trot victory pushes the now 23-time winner over $1 million in career earnings for breeder/co-owner Acl Stuteri Ab and co-owner Kjell Johansson. Trainer Lorentzon becomes just the second female trainer to win the Maple Leaf Trot, joining Hall of Famer Linda Toscano (2013, Market Share). Guardian Angel As returned $5.80, $3.00, $2.60. A $2 Exacta with Atlanta paid $28, while the $2 Trifecta including Marion Marauder returned $128.40. The Superfecta, completed by Crystal Fashion, paid $146 for a $1 winning ticket. by Mark McKelvie, for Woodbine Entertainment
Photo finish camera needed in Champlain Stakes
MILTON, ON - August 30, 2019 - The Father Patrick colt Synergy got up the rail to win by the narrowest of margins in Friday's $182,876 Champlain Stakes for harness racing two-year-old trotters at Woodbine Mohawk Park. A full field of 10 rookies met up for the Grand Circuit contest. Per Engblom trainee Synergy went off as the slight favourite over Luc Blais' Port Perry and the two rookies would be connected throughout. Synergy and driver Yannick Gingras moved up to the top from second moving into the backstretch. Port Perry and driver Bob McClure followed and zipped up to lead the field by the half in :57.2. Horse Trader applied first-up pressure going to three-quarters, sitting a length away from Port Perry in 1:26.4. Port Perry put away the outside rival in the stretch, but drifted off the rail just enough that Synergy could shoot through in deep stretch. The rookies hit the line in a photo finish that saw Synergy reach up to win by a nose in 1:55.4. Horse Trader finished third, while Scamp and Nylander finished in a dead-heat for fourth. "I wasn't sure honestly, it was really tight," said Gingras of the photo finish. "I had the momentum going across, so I knew I had a chance, but it was too close to call. "When Bobby (McClure) came I was happy to let him go. My horse is really good, but he hadn't raced in a month and he's been on the front a few times, so I was definitely happy to follow somebody." Synergy was making his first start since finishing fifth in the Peter Haughton Memorial on August 3 at The Meadowlands. The Engblom trainee has now won three of four starts and earned $121,854 for owners Brittany Farms, John Fielding, Herb Liverman and David Anderson. He was a $275,000 Lexington Selected Yearling Sale purchase. A $2 win ticket on Synergy returned $5.20. Friday evening's program also saw a jaw-dropping performance from Youaremycandygirl in the $30,000 Mares Preferred. The four-year-old mare was making her debut for trainer Richard Moreau and made an immediate statement. Driver Louis Philippe Roy angled Youaremycandygirl out from third approaching three-quarters and immediately surged up alongside Seaswift Joy N, who reached the third marker in 1:23.3. Youaremycandygirl was in full flight swinging into the lane and stormed away from her rivals with an incredible :25.3 final-quarter to win in 1:49.1. Owned by W Donovan, Youaremycandygirl picked up her second win in 10 starts this season. The career-earners of $1.5 million now has 20 career victories. She paid $19.20 to win. Live racing continues Saturday evening with the $1.6 million Maple Leaf Trot and Canadian Pacing Derby card. Post time is 7:10 p.m. by Mark McKelvie, for Woodbine Entertainment

$1.6 million 'Pacing Derby' & Maple Leaf Trot set
MILTON, ON - August 27, 2019 - Harness racing's heavyweights will clash this Saturday at Woodbine Mohawk Park for the $600,000 Maple Leaf Trot and $525,000 Canadian Pacing Derby. Over $1.6 million in purses will be up for grabs on a stakes-filled program, including the Simcoe Stakes for three-year-old pacers and Ontario Sires Stakes Gold for two-year-old pacing colts and geldings joining the co-main events. The Maple Leaf Trot for older trotters has been carded as Race 5, while the Canadian Pacing Derby for older pacers will go as Race 8. The Canadian Pacing Derby is the oldest stakes race in Canadian harness racing and this year's edition will feature a field of nine with $14.2 million in combined career earnings, including the defending champion and the co-fastest Standardbred of all-time. Casie Coleman trainee McWicked is returning to defend his 'Pacing Derby' title. The eight-year-old captured last year's edition in convincing fashion en route to being named the Horse of the Year in both Canada and the US. McWicked continues to add to incredible legacy with over $500,000 earned this season to bring his career earnings to $4.5 million for owner Ed James' S S G Stables. The superstar pacer led all Standardbreds in earnings last season, becoming the oldest horse in 43 years to top the money standings. He is also the oldest horse in harness racing history to receive Horse of the Year honours. David Miller, who steered McWicked to victory in last year's race, will sit behind the Coleman trainee for the first-time this season. The duo will start from the outside post-nine. Lather Up, the co-fastest Standardbred of all-time, will return to the site of his richest victory and attempt to add another lucrative victory to his dream season. The four-year-old captured last year's $1 million Pepsi North America Cup at Mohawk Park and earlier this season matched Always B Miki's world record of 1:46 at The Meadowlands. Trained by Clyde Francis, Lather Up is undefeated in six career starts at Mohawk Park.

The five-year-old has won six of nine starts and earned just shy of $400,000 this season. Guatdian Angel As has competed in many marquee events over his career. A victory in the Maple Leaf Trot would mark his first classic victory and push him over $1 million in career earnings for owners Acl Stuteri and Kjell Johansson. Driver Tim Tetrick has the assignment behind Guardian Angel As and the duo will start from post-three. A quartet of accomplished mares will compete in Saturday's Maple Leaf Trot.

Elims held for $600,000 Maple Leaf Trot
MILTON, ON - August 24, 2019 - The harness racing field is set for next Saturday's $600,000 Maple Leaf Trot after a pair of eliminations were contested Saturday evening at Woodbine Mohawk Park. A group of 13 older trotters, including five mares, competed in a pair of $40,000 eliminations. The top-five finishers from each punched their ticket to next Saturday's (August 31) rich final. Guaradian Angel As fought off Atlanta with a :27.1 final-quarter to win the first elimination in 1:51.4. The five-year-old and driver Tim Tetrick rejected a seat in the first-turn, worked up to the top and never looked back for his sixth win nine starts. "I was thinking about (tucking), but Atlanta I thought would want to follow my horse and lucky it worked out that way," said Tetrick. "My horse has raced good every start this year...my horse is strong." Atlanta cut an opening-quarter of :28 before Guardian Angel As moved to the lead. The Anette Lorentzon trainee got a favourable half time of :57.1, which allowed Tetrick to pull the plugs and put his charge into sprint mode for a back-half of :54.3. Guardian Angel As fended off Atlanta in the lane to win by three-quarters of a length. Speeding Spur N finished third, while Dream Together and Dancer Hall rounded out the top-five. Guardian Angel As has banked $399,434 this season to bring his career earnings to $921,116 for owners Acl Stuteri Ab and Kjell Johansson. The Lorentzon trainee picked up his 22nd career victory with the elimination score. A $2 win ticket on Guardian Angel As returned $3.70. Crystal Fashion rushed to the top at the half and kept the momentum going to win the second elimination in 1:52.1. David Miller guided the four-year-old gelding to his fifth win in nine starts this season. "I feel very good about this horse (going into the final) because he's been such a good horse, we've been blessed to have a horse like him," said trainer Jim Campbell. "He gives it a good effort every time we put him out there. He's a very versatile horse, you can race him any way you want." Marion Marauder made a rally from fifth to finish second by two-lengths. Six Pack, who was the favourite, didn't fire off a second-over trip and finished third. The top-five was completed by Manchego and Emoticon Hanover. Hannelore Hanover, who won the 2017 Maple Leaf Trot, sprinted out to be the early-leader and made a rare break when sitting on the winner's back going to three-quarters. Crystal Fashion has banked $450,775 this season to bring his career totals to 18 wins and $1.7 million earned for owner Fashion Farms. The Campbell trainee's only other start at Mohawk Park prior to Saturday was a victory in last year's Canadian Trotting Classic. A $2 win ticket on Crystal Fashion returned $6.40. The draw for next Saturday's $600,000 took place following the eliminations. The connections of Crystal Fashion and Guardian Angel As were able to select their post. 1. Six Pack 2. Crystal Fashion 3.

Ohio Sires Stakes star Only Take Cash returned to the track where she won her career debut to collect a comfortable 1:54.4 victory in the first split. The Bob McIntosh trainee and driver Trevor Henry circled to the top in the second-quarter from the two-hole and never had an anxious moment en route to a 2¼ length score. Only Take Cash took the top spot heading to the half and posted fractions of :56.4 and 1:26 before a final-quarter of :28.4. Special Honor finished second, while Dark As A Pocket was third.

Evident Beauty scored a blowout win in the second division for driver David Miller and trainer 'Nifty' Norman. The landscape of the second split took a hit when race-favourite The Ice Dutchess made a break early in the second-quarter when tracking Evident Beauty. The eventual winner was parked around the first-turn seeking the top, clearing shortly after her rival's miscue. Evident Beauty reached the half in :57.2 and three-quarters in 1:26.3 before trotting away from rivals with a 27.4 last-quarter to win by 6 lengths. Angies Luckeylady finished second, while Sonnet Grace was third. A daughter of Trixton, Evident Beauty is putting together a strong sophomore campaign with five wins and $281,444 earned in nine starts. The Norman trainee came into Friday's start off a second-place finish to The Ice Dutchess in last Saturday's Zweig Memorial at Vernon. Evident Beauty's career numbers now sit at eight wins and $555,260 earned for owners Mel Hartman, Little E LLC and R A W Equine Inc. She paid $5.60 to win. The Nancy Johansson barn might have had a miscue from The Ice Dutchess, but they did find the winner's circle in Friday's $30,000 Mares Preferred with star Kissin In the Sand. The four-year-old daughter of Somebeachsomewhere moved to the lead in the second-quarter for driver Yannick Gingras and took off on rivals with a :27 third-quarter (1:22.2). Kissin In The Sand finished the job with a :27.4 kicker to hold off a push from a drifting Double A Mint to win in 1:50.1. Windsun Glory finished third. The victory for Kissin In The Sand is her second consecutive at Mohawk Park and her second in 11 starts this season. The career winner of more than $1.1 million now has 19 victories to her name. Kissin In The Sand paid $3.70. Live racing continues Saturday evening with the Maple Leaf Trot eliminations, Nassagaweya and Eternal Camnation Stakes on tap.

Undefeated Whose Blue wins series final
MILTON, ON - August 22, 2019 - Rookie trotting filly Whose Blues remained undefeated by capturing one of two harness racing series finals Thursday evening at Woodbine Mohawk Park. The Thursday evening program featured two-year-old trotters in the spotlight for the $50,000 Pure Ivory Series final for fillies and the $50,000 Define The World Series final for colts and geldings. Cantab Hall filly Whose Blues kept her perfect record alive with a comfortable 1:56 victory in the Pure Ivory final. Bob McClure steered the Luc Blais trainee to the coast-to-coast victory. Whose Blues left from post-seven and cleared to command just prior to a :28.2 opening-quarters. The Blais trainee posted fractions of :58 and 1:26.4 before creating separation at the top of the line and finishing off the mile in :29.1 for a two-length victory. Spirit Of Deo took a shot at the leader going to three-quarters and finished second. Wine Rack Hanover was third, while Heat Wave Hanover was fourth. "There is nothing you need to worry about with her," said McClure about Whose Blues. "She's perfect gaited. If you just show her the whip leaving the gate, I figured she would go straight to the front and she handled that. "Last week she had every excuse to get beat off the trip, but she's so professional you can just do whatever you want." Whose Blues has now banked $47,500 to start her career for owner Determination. She was a $300,000 Lexington Selected Yearling Sale purchase and is staked to all the Grand Circuit events coming up at Mohawk Park. A $2 win ticket on Whose Blues returned $3.40. Horse Trader rallied by rivals in the lane to win the Define The World final in 1:56.3. Trevor Henry guided the Wheeling N Dealin colt to the victory for trainer Paul Walker. The look of the race changed early when favourite Threefiftytwo made a break ahead of the start. Jula Uppercut left hard and got the top at the opening-quarter in :28.3. Ripped And Ready went after the top spot in the second-quarter and was forced to work hard to clear at the half in :57.4. Sebastian Ray kept the action going by sliding out from third at the half and attacking the new leader around the far turn to three-quarters in 1:27.2. Nylander followed into a second-over spot, while Horse Trader followed from the back and sat fifth, three-lengths from the lead. In the stretch, Nylander and Horse Trader came off cover to power by rivals on the far outside. Nylander held the lead for a good stretch, but Horse Trader wore him down and edged by in the final-sixteenth for a half-length score. Jula Uppercut finished third, while Ripped And Ready was fourth. "I kind of wanted to leave a little more than we did, but he's kind of a funny colt and he doesn't want to leave," said Henry of Horse Trader following the victory. "He just falls off the gate and I didn't want to chase him and make him run, but it worked out anyways. "I was pretty sure he was going to get there. The one week when he won, he really brushed home good and he did as well tonight." Owned and bred by Oaklea Farm, Horse Trader has now won three of six starts for earnings of $70,715. His previous victory came two starts back in the opening-leg of the series prior to finishing third in an Ontario Sires Stakes Gold event on August 8. A $2 win ticket on Horse Trader returned $9.20.

Superstars headline Canadian Pacing Derby
MILTON, ON - August 20, 2019 - World champion Lather Up and defending champion McWicked headline a group of nine entrants for this year's $525,000 Canadian Pacing Derby. The entry box for Canada's oldest harness stakes race closed Tuesday morning with nine older pacers entered. Eliminations will not be required for this year's edition of the Canadian Pacing Derby and all nine will compete in the $525,000 final on Saturday, August 31 at Woodbine Mohawk Park. Lather Up, the co-fastest Standardbred of all-time, will return to the site of his richest victory and attempt to add another lucrative victory to his dream season. The four-year-old captured last year's $1 million Pepsi North America Cup at Mohawk Park and earlier this season matched Always B Miki's world record of 1:46 at The Meadowlands. Trained by Clyde Francis, Lather Up is undefeated in six career starts at Mohawk Park. The son of Im Gorgeous is currently riding a four-race win streak, which includes victories in the Dan Patch, Sam McKee Memorial, Haughton Memorial and Graduate Series, to bring his season record to eight wins in 11 starts and career record to 23 wins in 36 starts. A 50 per cent interest in Lather Up was recently purchased by Taylor Made Sales and Stallions, who owned last year's 'Pacing Derby' runner-up Lazarus N. The ownership group of Lather Up consists of his breeders Gary & Barbara Iles, George Teague and Taylor Made Stallions. The four-year-old currently sits at $1.7 million in career earnings. Casie Coleman trainee McWicked is returning to defend his 'Pacing Derby' title. The eight-year-old captured last year's edition in convincing fashion en route to being named the Horse of the Year in both Canada and the US. McWicked continues to add to incredible legacy with over $500,000 earned this season to bring his career earnings to $4.5 million for owner Ed James' S S G Stables. The superstar pacer led all Standardbreds in earnings last season, becoming the oldest horse in 43 years to top the money standings. He is also the oldest horse in harness racing history to receive Horse of the Year honours. The Coleman trained McWicked most recently captured the Roll With Joe last Sunday afternoon at Tioga. Lather Up and McWicked have competed against each other five-times this season. The season-series currently favours Lather Up, who has scored victories in four of those five meetings. Ron Burke trainee This Is The Plan heads towards the Canadian Pacing Derby with plenty of momentum on his side. The four-year-old gelding captured last Sunday's Prix D'Ete at Hippodrome 3R in a Canadian record of 1:49.1. This Is The Plan's only other victory this season came against four of his 'Pacing Derby' rivals in the $500,000 Ben Franklin at Pocono. He sports the second highest seasonal earnings in the field with $651,868 collected in 13 starts. Done Well and Filibuster Hanover join This Is The Plan to make up a trio of competitors in this year's edition from the Burke barn. There are plenty of local hopefuls joining McWicked in this year's 'Pacing Derby. Dr. Ian Moore trainee Casimir Richie P, Blake MacIntosh trainee Courtly Choice, Richard Moreau trainee Jimmy Freight and Carmen Auciello trainee Western Fame will all compete in the $525,000 contest. Courtly Choice captured last year's Little Brown Jug and tuned up last Saturday for the 'Pacing Derby' with a 1:49 victory in the Preferred at Mohawk Park. He's won three of 10 stars to this point in his four-year-old campaign. Casimir Richie P has quietly risen to the Preferred ranks during his four-year-old season, posting six wins in 15 starts. Despite just one win this season, Jimmy Freight has banked more than $250,000 in 11 starts. The four-year-old's lone victory came in the Mohawk Gold Cup and he's also finished second in the Confederation Cup and Battle of Lake Erie. Levy Series winner Western Fame ranks third among the nine entrants in seasonal earnings with $551,400 earned in 13 starts this season. The six-year-old joined the barn of Auciello for his most recent effort, a second-place finish to Courtly Choice in last Saturday's Preferred. The nine entrants in this year's Canadian Pacing Derby have combined career earnings of $14.2 million. The draw for the $525,000 Canadian Pacing Derby final will take place Saturday evening (August 24).

Reflect With Me sets Mohawk series record
MILTON, ON - August 13, 2019 - Captaintreacherous filly Reflect With Me established a new series record of 1:50.3 with a dominating harness racing victory in Tuesday's final of the Whenuwishuponastar. A field of seven two-year-old pacing fillies clashed in the $50,000 series final. Round one winners Reflect With Me and Alexa Skye returned to action after a week off, while Somebeachsometime entered with plenty of momentum after a stunning victory in the second leg. The opening-quarter saw Dr. Ian Moore trainee Kat storm out to the lead and post a :27.3 opener. Stablemate Alexa Skye tipped off her back entering the backstretch to circle to the lead, but that was short-lived as driver Andrew McCarthy started up Reflect With Me from third and the Tony Alagna trainee made a powerful brush to the lead. Reflect With Me proceeded to put the series final to bed by pacing a :27.3 third-quarter followed by an easy-looking :26.4 kicker to win impressively by four-lengths in 1:50.3. Kat finished second, while Somebeachsometime rallied from sixth to finish third. "I've been pretty careful with her just racing off the pace and I kind of wanted to prove a point tonight and let everyone know how good she actually is," said McCarthy following the victory. "She's so slick gaited and smart and just does everything so easy." A $120,000 Lexington Selected Yearling Sale purchase, Reflect With Me has two wins and $35,800 earned in four starts for owners Brittany Farms and Brad Grant. The daughter of Captaintreacherous gives her conditioner Alagna back-to-back series victories following last year's triumph by Tall Drink Hanover. A $2 win ticket on Reflect With Me returned $3.90.

Capt Midnight wins Dream Maker in 1:49.4
MILTON, August 12, 2019 - Capt Midnight became harness racing's first sub-1:50 two-year-old of 2019 with a thrilling 1:49.4 victory in Monday's Dream Maker Series final at Woodbine Mohawk Park. The Dream Maker final featured a field of six rookie pacing colts, all sons of Captaintreacherous, and four competitors from the barn of trainer Tony Alagna. Round one winners Allywag Hanover, trained by Casie Coleman, and Capt Midnight, trained by Alagna, returned to the series following a week off and played major roles in Monday's contest. The opening-quarter saw Captain Nemo surge out to grab the lead and post a :27.4 opener. Allywag Hanover and driver Sylvain Filion didn't sit second for long and were out and moving for the top entering the turn. Capt Midnight and driver Andrew McCarthy immediately moved out from fourth to follow 'Allywag', which set up a wicked second-quarter. 'Allywag' stormed by the half in :54.3, while Capt Midnight and McCarthy were forced to take back and drop into the two-hole. Allywag Hanover continued his mission by reaching three-quarters in 1:22.1. Captain Nemo angled out from third to come first-up heading towards the third-marker. In the stretch, Captain Nemo battled by Allywag Hanover to claim the lead with an eighth of a mile to go. Capt Midnight had room to angle off the pylons to the far outside and powered up to duel down to the line with his stablemate, prevailing on the outside by a head. Captain Kirk finished third to complete an Alagna trifecta. Allywag Hanover faded back to finish fourth. "I followed Sylvain (Filion) hoping I could put my guy on the front tonight," said McCarthy following the victory. "He's such a big long horse and he carries speed so easy I was hoping I could just send him down the road but didn't work out that way and I had to dump in the two-hole for a bit and I was lucky to get out and get him going and he likes to pass horses and got it done." Capt Midnight is now two for four with both victories coming in the Dream Maker and both by tracking down Captain Nemo. McCarthy highlighted the intelligence of the son of Captaintreacherous after noting he was forced to fire up and then back down Capt Midnight in the opening-half. "That's one thing about the Captain's they are pretty smart," said McCarthy. "You can kind of hurt their feelings and they don't take it to heart." A $350,000 Harrisburg yearling purchase, Capt Midnight is owned by Marvin Katz, Kenneth Jacobs, Brad Grant and Captain Kirk Racing. The Alagna trainee has banked $33,800 in four starts and is eligible to the upcoming Nassagaweya, Champlain and Metro. Trainer Alagna has now won the last two editions of the Dream Maker. Captain Ahab won last year's final in 1:51.1. The previous stakes record was 1:50.3 and set in 2017 by Summer Travel. A $2 win ticket on Capt Midnight returned $6.60. Mark McKelvie

MILTON, ON - August 6, 2019 - Somebeachsometime stormed by rivals in the stretch to win Tuesday's second leg of the Whenuwishuponastar Series at Woodbine Mohawk Park. The two-year-old daughter of Somebeachsomewhere paced home in :26.3, part of a :53.3 back-half, to come from sixth for the stunning victory in the second leg of the three-week event. Driven by Jody Jamieson, Somebeachsometime got away last in the field of seventh and remained in that position at the midway point. Even-money choice Caviart Jane moved to the top from third in the second-quarter and led the field by the half in :56. Caviart Jane paced a solid :28.1 third-quarter to lead the field into the stretch. Meanwhile, Jamieson moved to the outside approaching three-quarters to sit just over seven-lengths from the top. The stretch drive saw Caviart Jane hold a clear lead at the eighth-pole, but the far outside saw a pair of fillies charging. Lady Lou, who was second-over and five-lengths off at three-quarters, was making up ground late, but Somebeachsometime was storming up just a bit quicker. Caviart Jane surrendered the lead late and watched Somebeachsometime prevail by a head over Lady Lou in 1:52.1. Libspeak finished fourth. Trained by Dave Menary, Somebeachsometime was a $65,000 Harrisburg Yearling Sale purchase and is the first foal out of Well Said mare Talk Time.

Duncan's cafe has been serving up breakfast and diner food in downtown Council Bluffs for a long time. I get the idea that Duncan's sells a lot of tenderloins, some other people were eating them as I walked through the dining area.
Location: 501 S. Main St. in Council Bluffs, Pottawattamie County in Western Iowa.
Directions: The cafe is at the corner of 5th and Main St. in the old downtown area. You have to enter a hallway area to reach Duncan's.
The Tenderloin: The size was good, this thing dominated the multicolored plate with potato chips. The meat portion would be described as steamy but not moist and definitely not juicy. The breading felt dusty but had a distinct salty seasoning blend. Served on a large toasted bun that felt like the Rotella buns that come from Omaha. Those are good buns. Overall 7.1 out of ten.
Price: 7.00 with fixins and a side of ruffled potato chips.
Also on the menu: The menu is just regular diner food like chicken fried steak or daily specials, with full breakfast options served on big skillets.
Service: Its just table service with a counter for paying the bill and grabbing to-go orders.
Ambiance: The outside of the building is a historic main street facade, but the interior is unsophisticated small town diner with tables and booths and bright colored plates. I almost expected the plates to start beeping and lighting up.The exposed brick walls are covered with just plain random and weird pictures.
Final Thoughts: I have not exactly spent much time in Council Bluffs over the years. I read a local article a long time ago that pointed me towards the Railway Inn and LPL Lounge. I still haven't found a real good one any closer than the Dairy Sweet in Dunlap. My next stop might be a roadhouse in Beebeetown if I can find the time to drive through during the day.
One of the biggest restaurant trends of the last decade was the proliferation of high end and upscale burger places across the country. It used to be difficult just to find a burger topped with bleu cheese in Iowa, now its on practically every menu. If anything, its difficult to find a good "regular" burger that isn't topped with something exotic or given a goofy name or served in a themed restaurant. I knew BCBG had the breaded pork tenderloin sandwich as a daily special from time to time since they opened. I just happened to notice it on the regular menu on a recent trip to downtown Des Moines.
Location: inside the Capital Square building at 400 Locust St in Downtown Des Moines.
Directions: This is in the southwest corner of the ground floor of the Capital Square Building, accessible from the skywalk.
The Tenderloin: First things first, the size of the pork loin meat for the amount they are asking for is a great value. Its hard to find a decent homemade tenderloin downtown for any price. The loin meat is well tenderized and the coating of cracker textured breading has a great crunch. The menu's claim of "fresh ingredients" is not just promotional fluff. The lettuce and tomato are noticeable crisper and fresher than any other place serving tenderloins. The pickles were thick and juicy if that's your thing. But that brings me to another part of this sandwich. Its served "chopped", cut in halt. Why would someone take something that is beautiful and cut it in half? Even with a side of potatoes the presentation of the cut sandwich left so much empty space on the plate. Another problem was the "addition" of the side of honey mustard aioli sauce, this just seemed like a portion of salad dressing. I was under the impression that a confident chef would always serve his food the way he wanted people to eat it. Putting sauce on the side looks indecisive and pointless. At least the "honey mustard aioli" is served in a biodegradable container so after its thrown out it will vanish from the earth with less of a footprint. There are already two different mustard bottles at each table, why add this extra condiment when it isn't any better than the classic mustard described simply as "yellow". Served on a soft and warm toasted potato bun. Overall 7.7 out of ten.
Price: $5.50 a la carte.
Also on the menu: Burgers and Greens name refers to a menu which is mostly burgers and salads. They have unique daily specials and a huge selection of toppings for whatever you order.
The Big City Burger: I ordered mine in the double size with white cheddar cheese and fried prosciutto. The prosciutto was under the fixins and was crumbled into tiny pieces. The melt job on the cheese was just right. The ground beef was in some thick round patties and cooked a little past medium well. This is a tasty burger.
Another side option is the Cheesy Potatoes, with little pieces of fried proscuitto mixed in with seasonings and Swiss cheese. I like the thick chunky potatoes and the cheese was melted with garlic.
This could have been something beautiful.
Service: There is a long counter with an area where you can see the salads being made. They have some high tech system where you take a card and stick it into a machine that tells them where you are sitting and they bring the food to your table. Like most lunch places attached to the skywalk, BCBG has short hours and is only open for lunch on weekdays.
Ambiance: You have a great modern design with a green and white color scheme and three seating areas, inside and outside. They have another dining area for private parties or catered events. This is the nicest place in the thoroughly drab, terrible designed, utterly awful example of bad architecture known as the Capital Square building.
Final Thoughts: BCBG is operated by some of the most professional restaurant people in Des Moines, and it shows. Lines move fast, food gets out quickly, the design is modern and bright. The toppings for the burgers are clearly fresher and higher quality than nearly any other place I have visited. Long before BCBG occupied this location, there was lunchtime pizza place that also served a tenderloin. I can't remember the name but I never made it in there before it closed. The location above BCBG was home to Stella's Blue Sky Diner, which did great business for a long time before moving to Urbandale and then closing a few years ago.

8 Questions for Homebuyers – What Do You Want and Need?
Making the decision that you are financially ready to buy a house is only the first step. Finding the right one is more of a journey. It's one that will take you through a lot of front doors and require you to sort through room configurations, features, neighborhoods, financial aspects, and even your own emotions.
To make it a smoother trip, here are some of the questions you'll want to keep in mind as you consider each property to determine if it has what you need and want to call it your home.
1. How does walking into the home make you feel?
Try viewing homes like you already own the place. Take note of your thoughts and feelings when you drive up and step inside. If it feels like home, you may have found a contender.
2. Can this home accommodate possibilities?
A home needs to be big enough not just for your current family members but also any new additions – from new additions to the family, guests, live-in help, or relatives in need of care.
3. Will your household's life fit into this home?
Floor plans can make the difference between feeling crowded or lost in your home. If you entertain frequently or have young children, you may prefer an open-flow floor plan that allows everyone to be within eyesight. Having more rooms with doors and fewer levels may be better if you work from home or prefer more privacy.
4. Will your things fit?
When you view a home, literally take measure of the place. This means sizing up rooms, doorways, and staircases to make sure larger pieces, such as refrigerators, sofas and king-sized beds, can be moved in. Pay particular attention to cabinet, closet, and storage space, along with the size of the garage.
5. How neighborly are you?
When you look at properties, it's easy to focus on the house and not its proximity to the homes around it. Having neighbors and knowing them is attractive to many families seeking to be members of a community. However, some people may prefer to know their neighbors rather than to see them whenever they look out their windows.
When you look at homes, you sometimes lose track of where you are in relation to where you'll need to go. For instance, the schools, the train station, even the expressways may be 15–20 minutes away. That may be fine, but it's important to consider what it will take in terms of time to get around on a daily and weekly basis.
7. How do you feel about doing repairs, maintenance, and renovation?
Many buyers like the idea of customizing their homes. Others just want to move in with no additional renovation expenses for some time. It's good to know which type you are before you buy. Also, consider the age of the home and its appliances. Like a new car, a newly constructed home offers a honeymoon from repair expenses. The older a home is, the more frequently repairs are likely to be needed and the more vital maintenance becomes.
8. Is it a good investment?
It's only natural to consider whether a property will be a good investment at its current price. However, unlike a stock, you literally have to live with this investment. So, in addition to the monetary aspect, also consider the returns you will realize in terms of quality of life, comfort, security, and enjoyment.
The more homes you view, the clearer your wants and needs will become, as well as how high they rank on your list of priorities. You may find yourself reacting emotionally to aspects you didn't think were that important and realizing you're indifferent to things you thought you really wanted.
That's okay. It's part of the shopping process. As your wants and needs become more defined, it will be much easier to spot the place you will want to call home when you find it.

Wolseley, Garnet Joseph Wolseley, 1st Viscount
Wolseley, Garnet Joseph Wolseley, 1st Viscount wo͝olz´lē [key], 1833–1913, British field marshal. He fought in Burma (present-day Myanmar; 1852–53), the Crimea (1854–56), India (1857–58), and China (1860), and was an observer in the American Civil War. Later he went to Canada as commander of the Red River expedition (1870), and suppressed the rebellion led by Louis Riel at Fort Garry. After conducting the Ashanti campaign (1873–74), he served as high commissioner of Cyprus (1878) and as an administrator in South Africa (1879–80). His most famous achievements were the brilliant defeat of Arabi Pasha, leader of an Egyptian army revolt, at Tell el Kebir in 1882 and his attempt to relieve General Charles G. Gordon at Khartoum (1884–85), for which he was made a viscount. A tireless advocate of army reform, he became (1871) assistant adjutant general at the war office and worked with Viscount Cardwell to achieve shorter periods of enlistment, abolition of the purchase of commissions, and the creation of an army reserve. As quartermaster general (1880–82), adjutant general (1882–90), commander in chief for Ireland (1890–95), and commander in chief of the army (1895–1901), he continued to press for reform and was responsible for the modernization of training and equipment. He wrote The Story of a Soldier's Life (1903).
See his The American Civil War: An English View, ed. by J. A. Rawley (1964); his Khartoum journal, In Relief of Gordon (1967), his South African diaries (1971) and journals (1973), all three ed. by A. Preston; biography by J. H. Lehmann (1964); L. Maxwell, The Ashanti Ring (1985).


In Kiev, a battered man died near an emergency hospital.
It is noted that the man himself came to the institution with a request to provide him medical assistance.
However, he was refused, since he did not have the funds to pay for treatment.After a while he died, his corpse was found in the courtyard of the hospital.
According to eyewitnesses, the person looked like a homeless person, and the cause of death was probably the injuries.


You realise I'm A Celeb is not that far off that length either. It's scheduled for 90 minutes but has been going over every night by up to 15-20 minutes. It's a huge commitment for any show and it's hurting any show that might screen afterwards.
Celeb usually goes for around 95 mins, as it did last night. Even so I still agree that the Celeb episodes are also too long, however it doesn't bother me so much as I'm a celeb I generally sit and watch maybe the first hour and then its just on in the background whilst I do other stuff towards the end. It's a very light show that doesn't require that commitment and I can easily miss some of it if I need too. The fact that it's a short season too I think means people wont be as impatient whereas MKR will go on for months.
Every year, you bag MKR and you predict the end is nigh, but you continue to shower I'm A Celeb with praise, even though you can't even be bothered to watch it any more.
I think they're both too long and should both be only an hour long. I record and zap through all the recaps and previews and adverts. A 2 hour show can be watched in 50-55 minutes.
Well the show is significantly down on previous years, so what's your point? All that I ever said was that I'm surprised it sustained it's audience given the episode lengths. I am surprised but I guess it shows its strength with the audience it has. If it can keep that up for the season with episodes that long then good on them.
you continue to shower I'm A Celeb with praise, even though you can't even be bothered to watch it any more.
Uhhhhhhhh what? Celeb is pretty much the only thing I'm watching (or interested in watching) on FTA at the moment. I didn't realise you have to be glued to a show 100% of the time to be considered a viewer, or that it even matters in a ratings discussion anyway.
Celeb is pretty much the only thing I'm watching (or interested in watching) on FTA at the moment.
Well the show is significantly down on previous years, so what's your point?
You're whinging again and it's pointless.
I didn't realise you have to be glued to a show 100% of the time to be considered a viewer, or that it even matters in a ratings discussion anyway.
Well, you do need to be sitting in front a TV and ratings box for ratings to count. So having it on in the background and wandering around the house doing other things wouldn't be counted as ratings on a ratings box.
Seven claimed today that BVOD streaming of MKR was up 76% year on year. Meanwhile, Nine is crowing MAFS is a massive success on 9Now.
Looks like the two networks will continue to post numbers in order to boast its own reality show is No.1 in VPM / online catch-up.
Seven's claim that MKR VPM numbers are well up doesn't make the show number one as Married's numbers are also well up. Married is a clear winner 116,000 to 46,000 for episode 1 and 31,000 vs 10,000 for episode 2.
So they won the night, MKR won Adelaide (just) and Perth. 7 News won in Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth and wasn't far behind in Sydney and Melbourne.
All is not bad for 7.
Wouldn't be too happy if I was Seven though. Being beaten by MAFS constantly is going to hurt them in the long run. The Good Doctor doesn't run forever and they'll have to find another solution.
Actually after a second look, I think they won the news hour in Sydney and were 1000 behind in Melbourne. Is that right?
Coding error for Today Tonight in Adelaide has been corrected in top 20 list.
What a dire state for Australian TV. This time last year all the shows were pulling great guns, and now other than one half of the news nothing pulls the magic million.
Married at 955K, My Bitchin Rules at 814K, Celebrity at 605K, The Good Doctor at a measly 552K (half of this time last year) and the 20th rating program rates barely 300K. Australian TV networks only have themselves to blame for the decline in audience of their shows. They'll need to do more than finding innovative formats to entice the audience to return to linear TV.
It's not whingeing. It's a fact based on viewer numbers. This is the thread to analyse ratings.
Well I don't have a ratings box but I don't need to justify to you what my own viewing habits are either. Stop nit-picking and move on. Geez.


In an article for Yom Haaztmaut 5773 (1 of2 ), Rav Cherki notes that the Noahides are the first symptoms of a developing trend of worldwide recognition of G-d and the role of the people of Israel.
If we look at the Torah, we can ask what role the Holy One, Blessed be He, assigned to our Patriarch Abraham. His mission was, "Go for your own good from your land to the land I will show you, and I will make you into a great nation" [Genesis 12:1]. That is, the Almighty commanded Abraham to go to another land and to establish a new nation there.
Today we call a single nation that exists in a specific land a "country." Thus, the goal of the Holy One, Blessed be He, for the Jews was to make a national plan.
What was the plan for this country? "And all the families of the earth will be blessed through you" [12:2]. We would not have been told to establish a national entity if not for the universal role that the Holy One, Blessed be He, assigned to Abraham. What specifically is this role? It is to spread holiness and the knowledge of G-d throughout the world, through the mechanism of the diverse nations.
We are expected to establish a model of an ideal country, and then we will export it to the entire world. As the prophet Zachariah said, "Many nations will join together with G-d on that day, and they will be a nation for me" [2:15]. What is meant by "many nations"? Entire nations will emulate the nation of G-d. Just as Israel had the privilege of being the nation of G-d during the history of the world, so there will be other nations, other peoples, other countries, which will be nations of G-d.


Regular physical activity is associated with reduced blood pressure, an increase in good cholesterol and reduction in bad cholesterol, reduced total body fat, weight loss or maintenance of ideal body weight, and improved handling of sugars in the blood. In more global terms, a number of studies have shown that higher activity and/or fitness levels are associated with lower rates of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and certain cancers.
How exactly does a regular, brisk walk around your neighborhood confer these wonderful outcomes? Here's the skinny (pardon the pun). While walking, your circulatory system is busy making a complex series of adjustments so that your heart can pump additional blood to your working muscles to meet their increased metabolic demands and to make sure that all the other organ such as your kidneys and brain get their fair share of energy despite the increasing demands of your exercising muscles. The circulatory system also adjusts, to keep your body temperature normal even though you generate heat when you exercise. Blood flow to the skin increases also to facilitate body cooling.
During exercise, normal responses include an increase in your heart rate or pulse as well as an increase in your systolic blood pressure (the top number of your blood pressure measurement). How high should your heart rate climb? Assuming you are a healthy individual, an ideal aerobic exercise session should include a warm-up period for 10 minutes, an endurance phase for 30 to 45 minutes and a cool down phase for five to 10 minutes. During the endurance phase, the target heart rate should be 70 to 85 percent of your maximal heart rate. Your maximal heart rate can be estimated by subtracting your age from 220. If you are 50 years of age, your maximal heart rate is 170 and your target heart rate is 119 to 146 beats per minute. These numbers may vary with individual fitness levels. After the completion of exercise, the blood pressure and heart rate recover quickly. If you check your blood pressure at home after you have worked out, you will may find that your blood pressure is lower than it was when you started. This is normal.
Over time, with regular physical activity, the heart and circulatory system become much more efficient at getting the needed blood supply to the exercising muscles and the muscles develop more capillaries so that they become more efficient at extracting oxygen from the circulating blood. Thus, the increase in heart rate and blood pressure at a given level of exertion will be attenuated. It may even be difficult to get the heart rate up to the same levels you saw when you were just starting out and less well conditioned. How often should you participate in exercise sessions? Seven days a week if you can. And remember, regular exercise leads to the expenditure of calories. When you use more calories than you take in, weight loss is sure to follow.
Finally, it is important to keep in mind that exercise has risks as well as benefits. Three of the most important predictors of risk with exercise are increasing age, the presence of heart disease, and the intensity of exercise. The risk of cardiovascular and orthopedic injuries is higher with higher intensity exercise programs. For those who are low-fit or sedentary, longer duration, lower intensity exercise is best. There are also certain exercise restrictions if you are pregnant. Before you begin a regular exercise program it is important to talk to your health care professional to identify any risk factors you might have for exercise-related problems and a fitness trainer for a safe beginning strategy. Once you get the green flag: on your mark, get set, go!

HSE Campus in Perm
International Workshop "Political Economy of Development: Challenges and Perspectives"
From 29th October to 1st November Anna Bykova, Associate Professor of the Department of Economics and Finance and research fellow of the IDLab, participated in the International Workshop "Political Economy of Development: Challenges and Perspectives", which was organized by the International Center for the Study of Institutions and Development (HSE) in cooperation with The College of Humanity and Social Sciences (CHSS) at UAE University and New York University Abu Dhabi.
The first two days of the seminar were held on the campus of the UAE University in Al Ain; then the participants moved to the campus of the New York University Abu Dhabi. This year more than 30 researchers from all over the world took part in the Workshop. Among the invited speakers were: Andrei Yakovlev, Thomas Remington, Koen Schoors and Michael Rochlitz who made presentations in plenary sessions. Thus, prof. Yakovlev presented his work on modernisation in Russia, prof. Schoors talked about the relationship between politics and banking, prof. Remington has compared public-private partnerships in Russia, USA and China, and Dr Rochlitz described the differences between federalism in Russia and China.
Anna Bykova presented the results of a joint study with prof. Dennis Coates on the impact of the institutional development of the region, estimated with the help of the Index of Economic Freedom, on the performance of companies. The research was based on data on more than 1,000 Russian companies between 2004 and 2015. Applying hierarchical linear regression analysis was applied, the authors found that the presence of economic freedom at the regional level explains about 5% of variations of the companies ' performance metrics such as return on assets, return on invested capital and TobinsQ ratio. However the impact is not presented by the average level of economic freedom, which is the same for all regions, but the differences in the level of institutional development in the regions. The study was the result of a combination of two major research projects – an analysis of the behaviour of Russian public companies, conducted by the IDLab, and the study of economic freedom in the Russian regions, which was carried out by prof. Dennis Coates together with colleagues from the United States and Switzerland.
Unlike large conferences, the proximity of the research interests of all participants allowed not only to discuss each work in detail but also to get critical and meaningful comments on each presented idea. Besides, the small number of participants allowed them to organise a close informal interaction and valuable contacts for future work.
