Loyal Pencillistas know I'm a defender of Genetically Modified Organisms, AKA GMOs. That puts me in a distinct minority in this food fetishist town. People here know me as a liberal-bordering-on-radical and so are aghast when they discover I don't see GMOs as the tools of the devil.
They say: But what about Monsanto? To which I reply: Sure, Monsanto's about as evil as, say, Halliburton or Academi (the former Blackwater.) Monsanto makes tons of dough on its patented GMO seeds and uses the most bullying tactics possible to make certain every farmer, every gardener, hell, every kid who plays in the dirt buys its product. Plus, Monsanto actively squashes competition, infringes on free speech, impedes investigations, harasses critics, and literally writes laws that legislators on its payroll can then obediently introduce and pass.
Monsanto is, in short, a bad guy.
The ways Monsanto is forcing GMOs upon the world may be despicable but that that doesn't mean their new species per se necessarily spell the end of civilization. That's my position.
"Indeed I am," she replied, smartly.
She's no longer teaching science because she stopped doing research (IU looked askance at her public denigration of the commercial exploitation of her research.) If anyone can sway me, she'll be the one.
Marti Crouch has sent me the first of what promises to be a long series of info-packed articles and tracts. It's an excellent introduction to GMOs from the Union of Concerned Scientists. Consider it GMOs 101. Here it is.
Even if you think you know all you need to know about GMOs, you should read these pieces. Hey, you may learn something! I know I'm hoping to.
Need I even tell you how much this disgusts me?
Congrats to Drew Daudelin, the new news reader/producer over at WFIU.
I met Drew at WFHB where he volunteered five days a week to edit each Daily Local News script. The kid was good, I'm telling' ya. He brought the writing level up dramatically while he was there.
Now, apparently, he's making real dough. Good for him.
You may also have caught Kat Carlton reading the news during local breaks on Morning Edition the last few months as well. She, too, prepped at WFHB, in fact writing up news stories right next to me on several occasions. Just watching the way she carried herself, I could tell she was going places.
That Alycin Bektesh, WFHB's redoubtable News Director, she's got a nose for talent, no? A thought: Maybe WFIU should become a major contributor to WFHB, considering the latter is now the talent pool for the former.
Remember the teenaged girl in Texas who survived the massacre of her family a few weeks ago? The one who gave a heartfelt speech at her family's memorial? The latest poster child for gun sanity?
Her name was (and is) Cassidy Stay. The shooter, if you don't recall, was searching for his ex-wife and held her sister's family hostage until they told him where she was. They refused to and as a result were executed, Nazi-style, with bullets to the backs of their heads. Cassidy survived the carnage.
I really like Harry Potter. In "The Prisoner of Azkaban," Dumbledore says, "Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times." I know that my mom, dad, Bryan, Emily, Becca and Zach are in a much better place and that I'll be able to see them again one day. Thank you all for coming and for showing support for me and my family. Stay strong.
Gun control advocates, naturally, lauded Cassidy to the skies and asked, for the zillionth time, why we have to endure yet another firearms atrocity.
A reminder, kids: There aren't two sides to every question.
In your dialogue with Marti C, you show a major difference between a liberal and a nonliberal (whether Right or Left)—the capacity for reconsideration when presented with compelling arguments.

Massachusetts Legal Literature in a Nutshell: Secondary Source Law
/ Law Books and Websites /
Secondary source material, information about the law, rather than the law itself, is not so readily accessible online for free. Secondary sources are invaluable for analysis and understanding what to do with the primary sources. Black's Law Dictionary can help define the words; but much has been written to help practitioners and citizens understand what the law means, and how to work with it.
Annotated Statutes
Massachusetts General Laws Annotated (MGLA) and Annotated Laws of Massaschusetts (ALM) are published by Thomson Reuters and LexisNexis, respectively. They are available in print and online by subscription as part of WestlawNext and LexisAdvance. Annotations provide historical and statutory notes, cross references, references to law review, journal and other published commentaries and notes of decisions.
Massachusetts Digest is published by ThomsonReuters, available in print and online by subscription as part of WestlawNext. Digests have long been used as subject indexes to cases. Today, there is a trend to use keyword searching online in databases of cases. However, examining a mediated index that uses authoritative terms may find cases that otherwise might be overlooked because the searcher does not know the proper terminology.
Shepard's (LexisAdvance) and Keycite (WestLawNext)
In 1873, Fred Shepard developed a system for determining if a case or other authority could be relied upon as good law. Shepardizing, online or in print, will show (in the form of a list) whether a case or other authority has been overturned, reaffirmed, questioned, or cited by later cases. Keycite is another online citator that accomplishes the same objective.
Lawyers Cooperative Publishing published a 22 volume encyclopedia of Massachusetts law in 1992 entitled Massachusetts Jurisprudence. It was supplemented by West Group until 1998 when it went out of print.
The Massachusetts Practice Series, published by Thomson Reuters, now serves as an encyclopedic tool written most specifically for attorneys, covering all aspects of Massachusetts law . There are 58 titles in the series, with many of the titles consisting of multiple volumes.
Massachusetts Continuing Legal Education (M.C.L.E.) publishes more than 160 practice manuals covering every aspect of civil and criminal law in Massachusetts.
Available from the Mass. Trial Court Law Libraries through HeinOnline, Law Reviews publish lengthy, comprehensive treatments of subjects in the form of articles. These articles are often cited as authority by courts throughout the United States and have had an influence on the development of the law.
Legal Newspaper
Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly can be subscribed to at http://masslawyersweekly.com/ , online or in print. The newspaper reports court decisions, "changes in court rules, verdict & settlement reports, bar discipline notices and all other news vital to attorneys in the Commonwealth."
General Treatises
Beginning with Joseph Story's work in the early nineteenth century, treatises developed as a form of legal literature that systematically presented a single branch of the law. Examples of treatises going back to the nineteenth century are Wigmore on Evidence, Scott on Trusts, and Williston on Contracts or Sales. In the twentieth century, Bogert wrote on trusts, Couch wrote on insurance law, and LaFave continues to write on search and seizure.
All these secondary sources and more are available at your local Massachusetts Trial Court Law Library.

Should I Buy A Mac Computer?
The first time I bought a computer it was a Mac in the mid 1980s. I loved the design of the mouse with the visual interface and DOS was boring and backward. I continue to work with Macs for 5 years. Eventually I needed to earn a living so I grudgingly bought my first PC.
Macs have always been a better engineered and designed computer. Compared to Microsoft it was and is elegant and efficient. Today I do not own or use a Mac. The reason is that I am a small business owner plus, and most importantly, I'm cheap.
As a small business person you make decisions that favor your business. And Windows is the way to go. It is the easiest and (almost) cheapest way to get a good operational machine. There are two issues that make this a no-brainer. First, you can get a functionally (not performance-wise) equivalent Windows machine for about 60% the cost of a Mac. Second, all the software you need for standard business work is first and foremost available on Windows. This last one is diminishing over time but it takes some head scratching and looking around to get to some things on a Mac. And you don't want to be an IT person just to figure out how to get your books done.
Over the last 10 years Macs sales are rising as a share of total PCs sold. Don't be fooled, this is just a fashion effect that comes from the coattails of the iPhone. The reason Macs sales increased is because Apple invented the modern eco-system. And individuals have bought into it but as a business owner the eco-system is important to you. And Apple's system is even more closed than Microsoft was during the apex of their computer hegemony. And this is why I can't recommend Apple as a business product. You need the flexibility to adapt and tie into different systems to maximize your ability to communicate and share information.
9to5Mac announced a possible new MacBook Air, does this mean you should buy one? No it does not. Buy a Windows PC for a cheap price (keep it under $650 or so) and if you want it to double-duty as a personal recreational computer then add a premium and get nicer/faster/lighter hardware.

FON (FON Wireless Ltd.) is a company that runs a system of shared wireless networks. The business was launched in November 2005.
People can become members (called "Foneros") by agreeing to let FON share their wireless Internet connection. Members need to purchase a low-cost wireless router (called a "Fonera"), which acts as a public Internet access point (called a "FON Spot"); the device also creates a private network that can be used by the owner only. FON members can use any other FON access points free of charge. The Fonera 2.0n WiFi router has additional firmware and a USB port that allow it to also function like a networking hub.
Customers who do not share their Internet connection (called "Aliens") can buy Internet access passes or prepaid WiFi from FON for a fee. FON members whose access points are used by a paying customer receive part of the revenue.

'Mummify like an Egyptian' – Egyptianizing Mummification in the Canary Islands
By Daniel M. Méndez-Rodríguez
The Canary Islands are a Spanish archipelago composed of eight islands in the Atlantic Ocean in the northwest coast of Africa near Morocco.

Before the European conquest, these islands were inhabited by different indigenous groups of people who came – or more probably were carried – in antiquity from the north of Africa in not entirely clear circumstances.
One of the most remarkable features of their culture was the funerary practice of artificial conservation of the bodies.

This kind of mummification in the Canary Islands is usually called mirlado and has been attested in three of the eight islands: Tenerife, Gran Canaria and La Palma. Elements of the practice seem almost Egyptian in terms of objectives and methods, but is there a relationship?
Information about the Canarian mummification comes from two main types of sources. The first is physical anthropology since the end of the 1980s through the 20th century. The second source is accounts by many authors since the 15th century, which provide especially valuable information. Here I focus on the latter, the interest shown by many individuals of different historic contexts and professional backgrounds: priests, astronomers, merchants, explorers, naturalists, doctors, and more. More than seventy authors have written about the mummies from the end of the 15th century to the first half of the 20th century.
Descriptions of the Canarian embalming procedures address many different aspects. The embalmers are described as specialists dedicated exclusively to this activity and included both men and women, with division of labor depending on the sex of the corpse to be treated. They were said to be a separate community of the aboriginal society regarded as outcasts due to their contact with the dead bodies.
Perhaps the most interesting information is related to the different processes of the mirlado or mummification. The accounts specified the place where the procedure was carried out; duration (around 15 or 20 days); different kinds of washing; the corpse preparation, with information about thorax and abdomen evisceration if undertaken; body manipulation with the insertion or the application of different types of substances of animal, vegetal and/or mineral origin (for example: ovicaprid fat, heather, pine tree bark, astringent herbs and pumice stones); different drying processes; and the wrapping, done using different layers of ovicapids skins girded tightly with leather thongs.

Different practices related to the social status of the deceased as to the use of coffins or certain funerary equipment are described. Finally, the burial practices, including the use of coffins, the deposit of the corpses and their position (laying down, sitting down or standing up against a wall), and the custom of the bodies orientation to the north in Gran Canaria are also discussed. The final resting place of the deceased was commonly inaccessible caves or, in the case of Gran Canaria, funerary tumuli.
The texts discuss embalming procedures and/or mummies' descriptions. The origin of their information for these texts was diverse: oral data from the aborigines' descendants or peasants (found only exceptionally in the oldest texts, for example Alonso de Espinosa's 1594 account), and also the writers' experience visiting indigenous sites as burial caves.
Alonso de Espinosa publication (1594).
The overwhelming majority of the authors relied on previous accounts, both mentioning and omitting their sources. Texts provided information specifically about the mirlado itself, but also, in order to achieve a comparative view, cited evidence from classical antiquity. These accounts explained the embalming procedures of Egyptian mummification using Herodotus (5th century BCE) and Diodorus Siculus (1st century BCE).
Information transmission while editing texts during centuries involved processes of modification, addition, omission, and (re)elaboration. Comparative materials were added, not based on knowledge about the indigenous Canarians but on information or notions related to the Egyptian mummification or, more generally, Egyptian culture. Thus, certain descriptions about the Canarian mummification have been Egyptianized over the past centuries. This has leaded to misconceptions, some of which has been accepted and transmitted without criticism by scholars even until the present day.
Some of these misconceptions include the consideration of the embalmers as priests, their positive social position and organizational division of labor, the use of salt for desiccation and washing, and probably mention of removal of the brain. This procedure has been called into question since no traces of it has been found in any Canarian embalmed body. Therefore, its presence in the texts may be also due to the comparison with the Egyptian procedures. Spanish priest José de Viera y Clavijo, one of the main figures of the 18th century Enlightenment in the Canary Islands, was the responsible for some of this misconception.

I will focus on one specific case of this Egyptianized view of the mummification of Canary Islands. Several substances are mentioned during the description of the embalming procedures, but the use of salt does not appear in any text before the 18th century. At the beginning of the 16th century, Juan Abreu Galindo (ca. 1594-1602) wrote that certain specific parts of the corpses were washed everyday twice with cold water:"…y cada día los lavaban dos veces con agua fría las partes débiles, sobacos, tras las orejas, las ingles, entre los dedos, las narices, cuello y pulso." [An English version of this text was later published by the merchant George Glas (1764): "…then twice a day they washed the porous part of the body, viz. the arm-pits, behind the ears, the groin, between the fingers, and the neck, with cold water…"].
Abreu Galindo's text was later used and almost copied literally by Viera y Clavijo (1772), but he surprisingly added the salt as an ingredient. We found the explanation for this addition in another of his works, his Dictionary of Natural History. He defined the word 'natron' (a naturally occurring chemical salt) and explained that Herodotus wrote that the Egyptians used it for the embalming of their corpses. Because of this, he reasoned, perhaps the Guanches also used natron from Teide – the highest mountain of Tenerife – for the preservation of their mummies.

Viera y Clavijo had no evidence that the aborigines used salt but supposed they did because of the information written by Herodotus.
Many authors directly or indirectly followed and copied his text. His supposition was rapidly widespread in an international context by the French naturalist Jean Baptiste Geneviève Marcellin Bory de Saint Vincent (1803). Consequently, salt as a substance used in Canary Islands' mummification became received wisdom and was included in many descriptions of later scholars – almost 20 have been attested. For example, 20th century Egyptologist Warren R. Dawson stated in 1927 that "…The washing of the interior of the body and the use of salt encountered among the Guanches are typically Egyptian…".
In spite of being an error introduced in the 18th century, based on analogy with the Egyptian mummification, the role of salt in mirlado can still be found even in 21st century publications. An in-depth comparative analysis of the transmitted information since the 15th century based on textual criticism has identified this and others mistakes, additions and reinterpretations, conscious or not, that compared the funerary practices of preservation of the deceased bodies in Egypt and Canary Islands. By removing these misconceptions, the local Canarian practices may now come into better view.

Camping De Trologot ist ein Campingplatz mit 85 Tourplätzen. In der Nebensaison campen Sie in diesem Zeitraum 30-03-2019 - 07-07-2019 und 26-08-2019 - 26-10-2019 für €16,- pro Nacht auf einem der 85 Tourplätze auf Camping De Trologot in Saint-Pol-de-Léon (Finistère). Auf diesem Campingplatz wird außer der CampingCard ACSI auch die ACSI Club ID (Legitimationsersatz) akzeptiert.
Gepflegter, ruhiger Campingplatz, ausgezeichnete Anlagen für einen angenehmen Aufenthalt an der Küste. In der direkten Umgebung St. Pol-de-Léon mit Kathedrale, die Île de Batz mit exotischen Gärten und Roscoff mit den Fähren. Serviceplätze vor dem Camping, für An- und Abreise außerhalb der Rezeptionszeiten.
Under new management, Edward and Valerie are the new owners and this is their first season. Already a few changes for the better have taken place. The pool is now heated and open and there is a new snack bar. Also a kiddies pool and play area with bouncy castle. We really like this site, it\'s close to the beach and there are a variety of walks and cycle rides. Close to St Pol centre with a Leclerc and a Super U nearby. Only a few minutes from Roscoff ferry. Morlaix is 20 minutes by car-worth a visit and also has a big Geant on outskirts for a big going home shop. The facilities are clean and well maintained with separate gender tolilets and showers. The only fault is that the toilets have no seats or paper, although there is now tissue to wipe hands. Maybe this will improve in time, but this is no different to many other French sites. Will recommend if only for a short stay either coming from or going to the ferry.
An excellent little site, very well run. Ideal for stop overs from the ferry, or to explore the peninsula and areas to the west on the coast.
Would highly recommend this site, large spacious pitches very tidy with hedges for privacy. Very clean facilities. Close to Roscoff and St pol de Leon is a lovely town. Places to walk and very friendly helpful staff. Bread can be ordered daily. There is a local beach bar and restaurant close by.
Very nice campsite. A good 30 min walk to the town. A stones throw away from a small beach. Showers were clean with plenty of hot water. Toilets had no paper & no seats, which seems to be the norm in France, but were very clean. The staff very helpful and spoke very good English. We enjoyed our stay here and would come again.

Dick Strawbridge and his love affair with Plymouth
Stars of Escape to the Chateau, Dick and Angel Strawbridge, are bringing their 'Dare To Do It' tour to the city in early 2020
Jess MorcomEngagement Producer
Dick and Angel Strawbridge are the stars of Channel 4's Escape to the Château
Dick and Angel Strawbridge are the eccentric couple behind the transformation of a 45-bedroom once derelict château in the South of France.
Their Channel 4 series, Escape to the Château, has become a TV phenomenon and now in its sixth series, as viewers have eagerly followed the couples restoration process, and the lives they have created with their children, Arthur, 6 and Dorothy,5.
Now Dick, a retired lieutenant colonel in the British army, and Angel, who was previously a successful contestant on Dragons Den, are embarking on a UK tour, along with the children, with a date in Plymouth on March 6 2020.
Plymouth Live spoke to Dick and Angel about their links to the city, the Dare To Do It tour and what's next for the couple.
So what made them want to hit the road?
"Every time we come back to the UK we come inundated with people asking questions that aren't always answered in the series," they said.
"People have things they want to know, so we figured out the best way to get out and answer everyone's questions would be to come to them, rather than having people come to the château."
Arthur and Dorothy now go to school in France as well as speaking the language, meaning that their time in the UK has been limited. All that will change soon though, as Dick and Angel plan to take the children on tour too.
"We're looking forward to showing the children a bit of England as they haven't really travelled a lot," Dick reveals.
"We're also looking forward to meeting people and telling them more about what went into the show, some people knew who we were beforehand and there's actually quite an interesting story that led up to the idea for the series, so it'll be nice to share that with an audience."
No stranger to the city, Dick was awarded an Honorary degree Doctorate of Science from Plymouth University in 2010, and its safe to say the city holds a special place in his heart.
"I absolutely love Plymouth," he said.

"When I got my Doctorate everyone was so kind to me. I used to live in Cornwall so this part of the country is somewhere I know well.
"My older son and I did quite a bit of filming down here when we made Hungry Sailors, to be honest, I'm half expecting people to turn up to the tour and question why on earth I'd ever want to leave the Westcountry!"
So what is it he loves the most?
"Thats a really hard question," he explained.
"I just think Plymouth as a lot of character, with everything about its naval side interests me. I love going fishing out here too.
"I think the thing I love the most is that it doesn't feel like a huge city when you're there, it doesn't feel big but there's everything you need. Some of the bigger cities in the UK, they just aren't as personal as here."
Dick and Angel's château dream began when they purchased the derelict building and its 12 acres in January 2015, for just £280,000. The interest in the couples trials and tribulations since then has been so large that Escape to the Chateau is now broadcast worldwide.
"I think the series has been so successful because it's real, and people can relate to us, so they love that" Angel said.
"If it's not genuine then people can always tell. When we aren't filming we have a relatively normal life in France, and then, when we come back to the UK we meet people and they often say to us 'you're just like you are on TV', and I'm like - of course we are!"

"Not only that, but our series is a success story underpinned by a love story," Dick said.
"I know it sounds soppy, but it is. It's the story of the two of us packing our bags and heading off to adapt to a new life, we never thought it would be a series at the time, but we're living a lifestyle that people love to see.
"When I grew up children played outside all of the time and I think that's really important because down in the Westcountry people are still rural in their thought process compared to the inner city, so I think we're reminding people that life isn't all about being on the property ladder."
I asked the couple whether there was ever a time during the refurb where they thought about packing it all in.
"It never even crossed our minds," they said.
"Even though it was a pain in the a** sometimes, there was never anything that we couldn't find a solution for!" Dick added.
So what are they hoping audiences will take away from the tour?
"Apart from a nice big smile, we want people to come and see us and feel inspired to do something new. Whether its start a hobby, give a craft a go, DIY, or paint a room. The thing about us is we like to give things a good crack," Angel said.
"And we aren't there to tell people to get themselves a château at all, but we followed our dreams to get here, so we would love to be able to inspire others to do the same.
Dick and Angel will hit the road with their Dare To Do It tour early next year
Dick said: "Without sounding like a motivational speaker, its retelling a story that makes the audience think 'oh I can do that'. It's a matter of getting stuck in and having a go.
"People are often too quick to think of an excuse not to do something, but the way we see it is you only get one pass at life and if our show can change someones opinion and make them think that they can do something, no matter how small it might be then that's amazing for us."
Dick and Angel even reassured me that there is lots more to come from them in 2020.
"There's definitely more life in Escape To The Chateau yet" Angel said.
Plymouth's neglected poster drums are going to disappear forever
"After the tour we plan to get back to business and continue our events and weddings at the chateau, we're currently booked up until 2022!"
"But that's because we don't believe in doing too many," Dick added.
"We don't want to turn it into a wedding factory. Angel is extremely good at weddings but we do only want to do a few a year.
"There's plenty of trips and other opportunities lined up for people to come and visit the chateau - and much more on our radar that we'd still like to do yet!"
Tickets for Dick and Angel: Dare To Do It are on sale now here


St. John The Baptist Parish's big sausage party got its start back in 1972 at the then-10-year-old LaPlace Dragway. It was developed as a fundraiser for the LaPlace Volunteer Fire Department. RL Reeves Sr was a volunteer fire fighter so I'm always happy to pitch in to help out the men who put out fires and do it without pay.
You could spend hours here having the time of your life, gorging on sausage, soaking in the sweet Louisiana sunshine and listening to bands of all stripes.
But I'm here for the food.
A good 2 dozen food booths are doing big business but I've come for the andouille and I reckon Wayne Jacob's Smokehouse (est. 1950) is as good a place as any to start. Mr Jacobs is no longer with the concern but the new owner assured me he had not changed a single one of the old recipes so I order a hunk of smoked andouille and get down to business.
It's about as good as it gets; smoky and moist with a good peppery flavor.
I take up a perch inside the "gospel tent" and am summarily blown away.
To the strains of Diplo the ladies basically explode onto the stage and deliver a frenetic performance that brings to mind the Solid Gold Dancers or perhaps the Living Color dancers from days of yore.
NOLA Dolls are 20 feet from stardom.
I'm not sure if I'd go that far but they are really good and certainly in the upper echelon of cracklins in Louisiana.
The emcee on the main stage is ready to introduce the Andouille Queen and the Andouille Princess so I make my way with haste to the concert area where Madison King holds court as the 2015 Queen alongside Tabitha Tregre the Teen Queen.
As all Louisiana residents know our womenfolk are the prettiest on earth and both of these young ladies will represent the festival in high style.
As I have pressing matters back in New Orleans I make my way toward the exit after a quick visit back to Wayne Jacobs Smokehouse to purchase a log of Andouille the size of a Louisville slugger.

Article: Ctrl-Alt-Del . . . When the computer crashes, what do you do?
Computers, they are a fact of life anymore. They're everywhere and into everything. They have their problems, but at least there are ways of getting some things back up and running.
As far as cars, well they've had computers in them for years, decades actually. These days, with the advent of multiple computer systems crammed under the dash and hood, it was just a matter of time before communication between the modules was going to be an issue. The inevitable lock up of the cars computer is not too far off from what you experience with your personal laptop… almost that is.
This communication breakdown is usually because of some corrupted information being passed from one module to the next. How that corrupted information got in there is still a mystery to me. I've run across a few common issues, like changing a battery, loose battery clamps, jump starting another car, or when somebody buys some gizmo that plugs into the ALDL. Seen it, dealt with it, and had to find a way to solve these problems.
Sometimes, it's a matter of reflashing the latest greatest software into one of the modules. Sometimes, the component is too far gone and a replacement module has to be installed, reprogrammed, and reconfigured. Ya just never know, or at least I don't until I'm in there checking things out. Often times, I find a solution to the issues, but I'm still left with more questions, and the questions are sometimes more bizarre than the solution.
Doing a full scan on the car led to 3 codes. One for the air bag, one for the radio, and one for the HVAC. Might as well start somewhere, the air bag seemed to me to be a good place. I looked up the definition of the code. U0422 "invalid serial data", but the code description left me even more puzzled it read, "This is not a failure. This is only to report that the RCM received a missing or invalid message from another module." So, what you're telling me (talking to myself, as if I'm talking to the engineers that wrote the code description), is that the air bag is fine, but it's tattle-telling on somebody else (one of the other modules), but you're not going to tell me who. What's that all about? I guess I'll have to play a game of hide and seek with the other modules. This guy (the air bag module) ain't helping at all.
Both the radio and the A/C had "U" codes stored for loss of communication. Well, like if that wasn't a surprise. Nobody is talking to nobody, but the air bag knows something and he ain't tellin'! Good grief, I thought codes were supposed to be a direction to a repair not a gossip line! Seeing how I've never run across this problem before, my thoughts were to read every line, every link, and every note on the two other "U" codes in the diagnostic and description pages, and see where this hide and seek game leads. Maybe, they'll cough up some answers, not like that stingy air bag that seems to know, but ain't tellin'.
All I can say is this better work. I left the battery disconnected for the recommended 5 minutes then followed the rest of the directions in the diagnostic chart. The screen went blank and a computer progress bar appeared that slowly went from left to right. Then the message "Calibration complete" displayed. Low and behold, everything works again! Yippee! Even that tattle-telling air bag light is off! The wonders of modern computer technology! I cleared all the codes while I sat in the comfort of the cool breeze from the air conditioner pondering what just occurred. Unbelievable, who could have imagined such a complicated scenario of events in a car just a few decades ago. But a result is a result that ends with a happy customer (and me too) for doing nothing more than, "Ctrl-Alt-Del" automotive style.
Yep, I pretty much did the same thing I do with the laptop, just reboot and all the previous mishaps have vanished and forgotten about. The only thing is, I wish the info about "Ctrl-Alt-Del" would have been put on the first page of the diagnostics, and not buried amongst pages and pages of "rip this out, scan this, and check that". Somebody needs to talk to that air bag module though! Nobody likes a tattle-taler, so quit that and just spill the beans, fella!
For an old timer like myself who's been at this car repair thing for a long time, I often wonder what the next generation of mechanics are going to be up against when it comes to solving problems on future cars. They'll still need those wrenches and screwdrivers that's for sure, but they'll also need even more knowledge on computers when wrenchin' ain't going to solve the problem.
Oh, how cars have changed. But, those weird problems still exist even in the modern automotive world. "Different, but the same", is the way I like to say it. No wrenches needed, just a bit of computer geekdom, and an entirely different approach to solving problems.

A Conversation With Miami Marlins Prospect Maxx Tissenbaum
David Marcillo
Features, Interviews, Major League Baseball, Miami Marlins, Minor League Baseball, National League, National League East
Miami Marlins prospect Maxx Tissenbaum has led an exciting baseball life already despite still waiting for his Major League debut. He was born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, and was drafted out of high school by his home town team, the Toronto Blue Jays. He elected to attend college rather than sign, however. After a successful college career at Stony Brook, he was drafted by the San Diego Padres and signed in 2012. He was traded to the Tampa Bay Rays a year and a half later as part of a seven player deal, then selected by the Miami Marlins as part of the Rule 5 Draft two years later. A few days ago, Tissenbaum won the Australian Baseball League championship as part of the Brisbane Bandits. An interesting and exciting career so far, but Maxx was nice enough to take some time to answer questions for us all the way from Australia. Here is the conversation we had:
Since starting your professional career with the San Diego Padres in 2012, you've appeared in games as a first baseman, a second baseman, a third baseman, a catcher, and a designated hitter. You even got out on the mound as a pitcher in 2015. What position, if any, do you consider your natural position? What are the challenges involved with having to be ready to play in different places while other players stick to one spot for their entire careers?
"I grew up playing shortstop and second base which is what I was recruited to college as, and then drafted as by the Padres. While I was with the Padres I got the opportunity to play some games at each corner spot as a way to help out my versatility and show that I could do a lot of different things to stay in the lineup. In 2013, I went to the Padres instructional league and began my transition to catcher, and that was further solidified when I arrived at Rays camp my first year. Paul Hoover, the Rays catching coach, did an incredible job teaching me the fundamentals, drills and techniques needed to be a catcher. When I'm asked what position I play I now answer with "I'm a catcher." I've never found it to be a challenge playing multiple positions, I think it actually helps because it has allowed me to stay in the lineup more. Now that I'm a full time catcher its just kind of a bonus to have in the back pocket that if somebody gets hurt and we need a guy in a pinch, I can help out and be that guy."
You were drafted out of high school in the 43rd round by your hometown team, the Toronto Blue Jays, but elected not to sign with them, instead attending Stony Brook University like fellow Marlin Tom Koehler. The decision seemingly paid off, as you were then drafted in the 11th round of the 2012 draft by the San Diego Padres. What went into the decision and how difficult was it to forego playing for your hometown team and instead play college ball for a few years?
"It was a fairly easy decision. I really wanted to go to school and get to grow up a little bit. I knew how long the odds were of making it to the big leagues as a 43rd round pick, and the Blue Jays sort of told me that they were picking a bunch of Canadian high school guys as a congratulations type of thing. They also said they thought school would be the best option for me to develop as a player."
You were part of a multi-player trade in January of 2014 between the Padres and the Tampa Bay Rays which saw you moved to the Rays along with Logan Forsythe, Brad Boxberger, Matt Andriese, and Matt Lollis in return for Alex Torres and Jesse Hahn. What was that experience like and how did you find out that you were being moved? Were there any unexpected challenges involved in joining a new organization in the middle of the offseason?
"I was at home working at my offseason job as an assistant in the purchasing department at Splash International Marketing when I got an email from AJ Hinch asking me to call the front office. I called in, the conversation was brief, a la Moneyball, and the next thing I knew my phone wouldn't stop buzzing because of all the social media response to the trade. It was extremely strange knowing that I was suddenly going to Spring Training in Florida rather than Arizona, and knowing that I'd no longer be with the group of guys I'd come to know from the Padres organization."
The Miami Marlins selected you from the Rays in the Rule 5 minor league draft in December of 2015. Did you know that teams would be interested in you as a potential Rule 5 selection or were you surprised by the news that you'd be moving to the Marlins organization? Again switching clubs in the offseason, what do you do to prepare for a whole new team when the season begins?
"I knew that it was my Rule 5 year but I hadn't heard anything about anybody being interested. I was extremely surprised when I got the news because the draft actually happened at around 4 am Brisbane time, so I woke up to everybody knowing except me. I had some great conversations with the front office the day of the draft and that put my mind at ease a bit, then I got the opportunity to go to a mini camp in Jupiter which allowed me to get my feet wet too."
You did well in High-A with the Rays organization in 2014, hitting .288/.327/.399 in 86 games. Despite the numbers, you repeated the same level in 2015. Given the chance to repeat High-A, did you work on specific parts of your game throughout the season or is there too much chaos in the life of playing games every day to be able to concentrate on individual parts of your game?
"I was back in Port Charlotte to get more time behind the plate. Being so new to catching, the Rays told me that I would get the best opportunity to play more defensively there, so I repeated the level. I focused on trying to clean up my blocking and receiving so that I could show I can be an everyday catcher."
You've always shown excellent plate discipline, with 111 walks and 117 strikeouts throughout your minor league career. In fact, in two of your four seasons, you walked more than you struck out. What is it about your approach or your swing that you think helps you make a lot of contact with the ball? Is it something you work on improving or just a natural part of your game? As you move up the minors, you'll undoubtedly face tougher pitchers. What do you plan to do to adjust to better control and sharper breaking balls?
"It's something I've always been good at. I grew up watching John Olerud of the Blue Jays and he had a very simple, short, compact swing that I copied. Having that approach of being short and not worrying about power always allowed me to have good bat on ball skills. As I've matured as a player I've learned to be comfortable hitting with two strikes, which takes off some of the pressure of being behind. During my time at Stony Brook we spent countless hours working on our two strike hitting and as a result we had something like four of the ten hardest players to strikeout in the NCAA."
You've played for the Brisbane Bandits of the Australian Baseball League for the past two seasons. What are the biggest differences you've noticed between the minor leagues and the Australian League? What are some things that are different that people might not realize?
"The major difference is that unlike the minor leagues this league has a huge variety in experience levels. Some guys are first year rookie ball players, some are mid minors prospects and some have MLB playing experience. It's an incredibly diverse league with guys from Japan, Korea, and Taiwan as well as the Americans and Canadians and of course Australians."
The Perth Heat have won four of the five Australian Baseball League championships, with the Canberra Cavalry's 2012-2013 win being the only interruption. Are the Heat viewed as an "Evil Empire" by fans in Australia, like the New York Yankees of the late 1990s? Why do you think they have been so successful up until having a rough year this season?
"They are absolutely the evil empire of Australian Baseball. They have a lot of really high level Australians which is a huge bonus. They've recruited well and had big time import players come in around mid year to be a boost for them, so their winning formula has been their core of Aussies and add a few big name bats mid year."
Your team, the Brisbane Bandits, earned the number one seed with a 37-19 record, six games better than the second place Canberra Calvary. The Calvary lost to the Adelaide Bite in a three game series, sending the Bite to Brisbane for a three game championship series. The last game your team played was on January 24th. How do you prepare for a crucial series despite 11 days in between games? Are there things you do differently that you wouldn't be doing during a shorter gap between games?
"We've had a whole bunch of practices since the final games, and we've developed into a team that can get its work done without formal stuff scheduled. We have lots of guys who are extremely self motivated who get to the field on days off to work, and who really encourage the others to do the same. Obviously we have a bit more recovery time so we are able to lift a bit heavier and train a bit harder than we would if we played every day but it's pretty much trying to keep our own individual routines."
You had a blog that ran as part of MLB.com/blogs in which you would update your readers about your journey through the minor leagues. What inspired you to create the detailed updates and what kind of interactions would you have with followers because of it? The teams you played for were obviously aware that you ran a blog, given that it was on MLB.com, but were you ever given pointers or guidelines regarding what to cover in your writing?
"The blog was the brainchild of my mom and sister. My mom said it would be cool to journal about my experiences, but I never kept up with it. My sister said I should try and blog to see if the interaction would make me keep it going. I loved that aspect of it and that's why I kept it going as much as I did. It was awesome to answer questions through it and to explain how this job isn't just about the millionaires on TV every night. It was meant to not only be a record for me to look back on, but also to humanize the pro athlete to the fans. I always had people within the organizations making sure to tell me not to post anything too specific like our bunt plays or signals but it was more a way just to open up this world to people who aren't inside of it and are interested."
Thank you to Maxx for taking the time to have this conversation, and a huge congratulations to him and his teammates for winning the Australian Baseball League Championship in the time since we spoke. You can follow Maxx on Twitter @8_Maxx and keep an eye out for him at Marlins Spring Training in Jupiter, Florida.

Senior Interior Designer Vicki Wiesman remembers this when choosing materials for a Kroger Grocery Store remodel. "We like patterns and products that are timeless but trending, within budget, and can withstand the elements, because it's hard to disrupt the customer experience with a renovation," Wiesman says. After all,…
The "Wow" Factor without the "Wow" Price Tag
Interior design is the closest thing we have to time travel. An apartment complex clubhouse in the Chicago suburbs recently moved out of the 1990s and into modern day, under the expert eye of Creative Director Paul Polk of dL Design Chicago. He combined colors and textures to achieve a more sophisticated image for the property, including Factory wallcoverings from MDC. "Our objective was to modernize the clubhouse…
Restful Stay Starts with Eye-Popping Welcome
Like the cover of a book, a hotel lobby sets expectations. It projects an image that tells guests they've come to the right place. Hotelier Amy Gamble uses MDC Dimension Walls to create a first impression that makes a lasting impact. Gamble and her husband began buying, renovating and selling hotels approximately 14 years ago. Their company, Area Code Hotels, currently owns six properties and recently put the…
Zintra Matches the Endurance of Flywheel Cyclists
There's a lot riding on the interior design of Flywheel cycling studios. Heart-pounding, music-driven workouts keep Flywheel members coming back for more. And Zintra acoustic panels keep that energizing music right where it belongs: inside the studio. The originator of stadium-style cycling, Flywheel has studios in 16 U.S. cities and Dubai, and the company continues to expand. Design Manager Jacqueline Showalter is part of the team that plans,…
The Look of Metal. The Price of Gypsum Board.
Even an expert eye can't tell the difference. The ceiling appears to be made of metal panels that lend a silvery sheen to the sleek interiors of the New Medical Office Building for Joliet Oncology-Hematology Associates (JOHA) in New Lenox, Illinois. In reality, the panels are an inexpensive gypsum board coated in LiquaPearl metallic paint from MDC. The illusion was dreamed up by Kaleb Yanko and Bret Mitchell…
Interior designer finds stunning new way to save money at the bank
There's that moment when you hang a painting and the beauty of a newly appointed space becomes perfectly complete. Interior Designer DeNae Krzyzanowkski of Linden Group Architects used framed artwork to finish her transformation of a historical bank into an 18-room boutique hotel in Homewood, Ill., with a distinctive French theme. But rather than actually purchase art, Krzyzanowski created custom digital wallcoverings with MDC, applied them to the…
These Talented Architects Spend a Lot of Time Staring at the Walls
SERA Architects had a small budget and a big idea when they set about renovating the third floor of their offices in Portland, Oregon. They wanted more communal space where designers and project managers could collaborate. They envisioned a new, experimental workstyle, and they created it with an open floor plan and FUZE Dry Erase Paint. The new third floor space brings together SERA's Urban Design & Planning…
Laurens Restoration has a 25-year history of making things look new again.
A two-year growth spurt prompted Laurens Restoration to update their offices after more than two decades running a successful business. They know a thing or two about breathing new life into a space, given their experience in restoring homes and businesses after a disaster. When it came time for their own office refresh, Laurens discovered a new purpose for their walls. FUZE Dry Erase Paint. A coat of…
"Intellectual graffiti" frees the mind at creativity-driven school
Glenbrook North High School ranks among the top schools in Illinois and nationally, due largely to its focus on individual creativity. It's an innovative school with access to all of the latest computers and classroom wizardry they need to create a dynamic learning environment. But the best technology they have, according to Chief Innovation Officer Ryan Bretag, is the dry erase paint that covers the walls. "When ideas…
Dry erase paint turns ancient chalkboards into a modern-day teaching tool
"Getting white boards into our classrooms was one of our priorities for this year," explains Nettelhorst Principal Cindy Wulbert. They hoped to replace their outdated chalkboards, some of which were in such bad shape that you couldn't even write on them. But the school realized whiteboards weren't feasible because they are costly, and because of the space they require. Then new Nettelhorst teacher Jason Merel suggested they experiment…

TV Review: Fear the Walking Dead 7.6 "Reclamation" (dir by Billie Woodruff)
Posted on November 27, 2021 by Lisa Marie Bowman
I just watched the latest episode of Fear The Walking Dead and I have to say that this is probably the first time this season where I really felt lost. I think that if I had watched the previous seasons, I would have had a better reaction to this particular episode. But, I have to admit that I had to use Wikipedia to discover who Al was and why Morgan and Grace were looking for her.
I will say that Maggie Grace did give a good performance as Al and it was hard not to get caught up in her joy as she experimented with that cannon. And I do like the idea of someone trying to travel the country and record people's experiences for future generations. Whenever I watch any of the Walking Dead shows, I always wonder what it's going to be like for the people who were born after the zombie apocalypse and who have no memory of what the world was like before the dead starting walking. Everything that we take for granted today would be viewed the way that we currently view the Roman Empire, a remote and almost mythological time that sometimes seems to be beyond understanding.
Unfortunately, there were many moments when the latest episode reminded me of one of those old Walking Dead episodes where almost the entire show would just be Rick driving from one location to another, having endless conversations about everything other than what the viewer wanted to hear about. The episode was bit too slowly paced for me, which has always been a frequent issue when it comes to The Walking Dead and its spin-offs.
That said, it appears that things have worked out well for Al and Isabelle so yay! And tomorrow night's episode will apparently feature Strand so an even bigger yay! for that. Strand is a far more compelling villain that the paramilitary thugs that wandered through this episode (not to mention Walking Dead: World Beyond).

Q: How to fix ImportError : DLL load failed for scipy.spatial module? It's been a week I have been searching for an answer, but I have not found a way to solve my problem.
I'm running python 3.6 on Windows, and I have this error :
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Alexis/folder/tag_activity.py", line 10, in <module>
    from scipy.spatial.distance import cdist
  File "C:\Users\Alexis\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\site-packages\scipy\spatial\__init__.py", line 101, in <module>
    from .qhull import *
ImportError: DLL load failed: Le module spécifié est introuvable.

Here is a few lines to give context :
# In tag_activity.py
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from scipy.spatial.distance import cdist
import boto3
import requests

# In scipy.spatial module
from .kdtree import *
from .ckdtree import *
from .qhull import *
from ._spherical_voronoi import SphericalVoronoi
from ._plotutils import *

I really don't understand why it doesn't works, because when I try to access .qhull.py file with CTRL+click on Pycharm, I can access the module.
I've tried to reinstall scipy with adequate .whl file (scipy-1.3.1-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl) from Christoph Gohlke website, but it doesn't solve anything.
Edit : I can't install python 3.7, I'm using libraries that aren't supported, and the script will run on servers using python 3.6

A: try installing through with the standard command line
pip install scipy

or clone on https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/e1/9e/454b2dab5ee21f66ebf02ddbc63c5f074b21c44e66e1a509b38566cac9d9/scipy-1.3.1-cp37-cp37m-win32.whl

Mr. Green rtoday released Heist which is a new bandit. Heist is a 3Dbandit with five reels and 30 paylines. In Heist you are the bank robber Neil Coelin who commits the last really big robbery. The game has nice icons and a really exciting bonus game where you have broken into the bank vault and will try to steal as much money as possible before the guards come.
The graphics and sound has a higher quality than many other things that you've seen and the tension is very tight. The game costs 1,5 euro per spin as a default but you can obviously change the coin value and number of lines so that each spin will cost less.

When I get a call about helping someone quit smoking, they're sometimes a little surprised. We have a chat about what's been going on for them, and I generally ask a few questions. How much do they smoke? What are the reasons they want to stop? Have they tried to quit before? If they have, we might chat about the various methods they've used. It's really common for people to have tried cold turkey a few times. Maybe they've tried patches, tablets, gum etc, with varying success, and often with unpleasant side effects. Sometimes they've quit for a few days or longer. Something happens and they're back to smoking in no time. Usually after just one smoke.
Firstly, you have to be ready, and be quitting for yourself. It's great to have the support of others such as your family, or even your doctor. But, you have to be ready to quit for you! If you aren't, you are going to find it hard to be successful in the longer term. Sometimes I just have to say no, not now. Call me in 2 or even 6 months, or when you're ready to be a non smoker for good, for you.
I also explain that it's not always a good idea, for me to be helping someone quit smoking straight away. Sometimes there are a bunch of things going on. It just might not be the right time for them to stop smoking.
Why I would say No to helping someone Quit Smoking?
If things like anxiety or depression are a big factor (now or in the past), or if someone has been through trauma or distressing events and these haven't been dealt with effectively, there's work to be done first.
Would you take a crutch away from someone with a broken leg? ….. neither would I.
If smoking is a coping mechanism that you use to deal with other stuff, what would you do without the smoking to deal with it? I wouldn't want you to take up another habit in place of smoking. Habits such as drinking excessive alcohol, eating sugary foods or way too much junk food, or even just being plain old cranky at everyone around you. No one wants that. Those are things that shouldn't happen when you stop smoking, and if they do that's a sure sign that there's more work to be done.
both actions (like quitting smoking, drinking alcohol and other habits), and other mental health issues, like anxiety and depression. Through various methods and processes I use, such as The Richards Trauma Process, for example, there is great and very effective help for stress, anxiety, depression and even PTSD available. Too many people stay stuck in these states, for way too long, often many years, just because they don't know what help is around.
Depending on what is going on, and if those things are a factor in your life now, it can be the best idea, that before you to stop smoking for good, you deal with those other things first. Sometimes it's quick and can be dealt with in the same session as when you quit smoking. Sometimes we deal with those things beforehand. Through our chats together and forms I ask you to complete, we usually work this out before you even come in for your first session.
So, often over a period of just 2-4 weeks, and in a totally empowering way, these things can be resolved effectively – and for good. That's life changing help – quick! We can't change the past, but we can change how it effects you.
I help people to quit smoking in just one session most often, but we're not all the same. Not everyone has the same background, the same strategies and supports, and that's OK.
Once anything else necessary is dealt with, either in the one quit smoking session or beforehand, you might find there just isn't a need to smoke anymore.
Contact us here or call 1800 760 249 to see if it's the right time for you to quit smoking now.

Someone Else is Here – Pt. 3
Published on August 10, 2015 December 30, 2015 by melanievlogan
Image: KidFocus and RecentFashion
Margaret couldn't believe her eyes. Last time she saw him, the two were being taken away in separate patrol cars. Now the boy of her youth was standing in front of her as a grown man. She had mixed emotions – love for the person she used to know and happiness that he wasn't dead. But the one emotion that overrode all the joyous ones was anger.
Margaret felt her face run hot thinking about how Chase somehow escaped the police, and didn't bother to save her. "What are you doing here?"
"I want to get to know my son, Margaret. Well, and maybe repair our relationship."
"You have got to be kidding!" Margaret folded her arms tightly across her chest, her jaws following suit. Jake stood between them, looking from one to the other not knowing what to think of the situation.
"No, I'm very serious. I've thought about you all these years and even tried to find you. I had to be careful to keep from getting caught."
"Well you didn't try hard enough. For goodness sake Chase, I'm in the same town."
"Yeah, I know that now. But you weren't always here. "
"That's true. They locked me away. Felt like being in that group home again. The only bright spot was having Jake…and Mrs. Doyle"
Locked away…group home…Mrs. Doyle. Jake had never heard these things before about his mother. He was tired of being confused. It was obvious that his parents knew something that he was totally oblivious to. "Will somebody tell me what's going on?"
Margaret looked at Chase hard. She had hoped she never had to talk about her past. But here it was in front of her. "Jake, honey, let's sit on the sofa." Margaret tried to figure out a way to tell the story without it sounding bad.
When she realized there was no way around it, she confessed. "When I was twenty, Chase and I broke into someone's home and stole a lot of stuff. Unfortunately, a neighbor saw us and called the police. We were both carried away, but somehow your father escaped. Me, well, I spent eighteen months in jail. That's where I gave birth to you. When I got out, I stayed in a halfway house and that's how I met Mrs. Doyle. She's the lady you call Grandma."
"So, she's not my real grandma?"
"Not biologically. But she's been like a mother to me."
Jake sat for a moment to consume the information given. He then diverted his attention towards Chase, "So, how did you get away?"
"They didn't have the handcuffs on tight enough so I was able to slip my hands out. When they opened the car door, I kicked the one officer and the other tried to tackle me. We tussled for a while, but I managed to get in a few lucky punches that bewildered them. Then I ran.
"Why didn't you go back to get Mom?"
"I couldn't. They would have caught me and thrown me in jail." Chase felt guilty. He couldn't look Jake in the eye anymore let alone Margaret. Her angered appearance turned to hurt and disappointment. Chase noticed. In a somber voice, he looked up and met her eyes, "I regret it now. She's the only woman I've ever loved."
Margaret's eyes welled with tears that she refused to let fall. "Well, we can't change the past. It's time for you to go."
"Mom he can't go. He's still a criminal. Don't we have to call the police?"
Margaret and Chase knew Jake was right. She didn't want to be the bad guy in this situation, but she also was trying to raise her son to be honest and do the right thing. "He's right Chase. We have to turn you in." A single tear finally fell.
"I understand." Chase's shoulders slumped.
Margaret quickly wiped the tears from her eyes as she left the room to make the call.
Chase knelt in front of the sofa where Jake still sat, "I know what I did was wrong. There's no excuse. It's time to pay the piper." He put his hand on Jake's shoulder, "I'm proud of you for sticking to what's right. You're a smart kid, and I hope your mom will let you come see me. I meant what I said about wanting to get to know you."
Jake nodded. He felt awkward and guilty. He had always wanted a father and here he was giving his away. But he also knew that crimes were meant to be punished.
The doorbell chimed and Margaret opened the door for the police. They cuffed Chase and led him out of the house towards the patrol car. As Chase was bent to fit inside the car, he took a last look at the woman he still loved and the son he wasn't sure he'd get to know. He began to shed tears as the car pulled off.
Margaret's tears were now coupled with moans. She hurried to her bedroom and slammed the door. Jake was left standing in the front yard, watching the patrol car until it was out of sight.
He ran into the house headed to his room. Jake grabbed all the pieces to the detective kit, and threw them in the trash. He thumped down on the bed crying. He had learned a valuable lesson – criminals weren't the only ones punished.

according to request there is Discount for Manifest Any Video newest version 3. At the same time to another request of the Manifest Any Video, and 1000x version is under way – currently I am around 800x and can't continue the work because my work room is so overload with chi energy that it is unable to be there – so I must wait till energy will fall off and then keep it till 1000x – it's question of few days and Manifest Any Video v.3 1000x will be done, and than published.
Some updates about Manifest Any Video v.3: it's in my opinion the best version and it manifest any video exactly as mind see it. It works by repeating mentally the vision and repeat is silently even after watching the video [best effects when use before sleep]. Actually if you took any video and repeat it without any magical tools – it will influence your reality – but with the Manifest Any Video v.3 the speed of manifestation is increased by many, many times.
The sexual topic is not the only one than can be manifested with it, but it's the only one that giving very fast results even the same day. Generally the attraction and self-trust manifesting is the most fast topic that can be visible in outside reality rapidly. If the videos for manifesting are repeated the effects can be very stable.
Indeed the all Manifesting and Learning from any Videos have build-in option to act on the go – customize to user's mind and feelings – which at practical side means watching different videos not necessary in loop mode – and there is still huge chance to manifest or learn. For doing it- please listen (or use audio talisman) about 30 minutes before watching (and listen [or use audio talisman] also during watching).
Manifest Any Video Main v.3 – Final Version!

New World Hotel/Tamura Building
300-396 POWELL St, Vancouver BC
North Strathcona
This grand four-storey 1912-1914 commercial building was designed by architects Townsend & Townsend for Shinkichi Tamura, a Japanese merchant who served as Canada's first Commissioner of Trade to Japan and who later returned to Japan to pursue a political career.
The building's exterior exhibits unique and graceful sheet metal ornamentation cornices, corbels and Corinthian pilasters that were used on other Townsend & Townsend commissions in Vancouver such as on the Quebec and Shaughnessy Manors.
Although the owner was of Japanese origin, the name and design of this building reflect the community's integration into the North American culture.
The New World Hotel was known as the 'heart of Little Tokyo' and was the most substantial rooming house in the neighbourhood. A variety of Canadian Japanese-owned businesses were run in the street level spaces over the years, including a newspaper office, drugstore, bakery, confectionery, toy store, dentist, tailor, salmon packing outfit, dressmaker and Tamura's own Canada and Japan Trust Savings Bank.
The Tamura / New World Hotel is now provincially owned single room occupancy (SRO) social housing, and was fully restored and renovated in 2016 with provincial and federal funding. In addition to life safety and interior restoration work, the sheet metal cornice was repaired and restored, and the sheet metal pediments and urns were completely replicated from historic photos and restored in 2016.
In 2017, Tamura house was awarded a City of Vancouver Heritage Award of Honour, recognizes the meticulous restoration and replication of the extraordinary exterior metal work including columns, rooftop parapets, cornices, and other ornamentation, and the rehabilitated storefronts and facades on the prominently located Tamura House, 390 Powell Street, a significant cultural site in the original Japanese district.
