Crunchyroll Love has unveiled a limited edition streetwear collection dedicated to Godzilla.
It's a good time for Godzilla fans. The franchise has seen a resurgence in recent years thanks to Legendary Pictures' MonsterVerse and Shin Godzilla. These films have led to a wealth of new merchandise. Also, Criterion released a prestigious collection of the classic Showa era of Godzilla movies. This November (UPDATE: the film has been delayed) sees the release of Godzilla vs. Kong, a film looking to have plenty of monster destruction. Soon, Godzilla fans will be able to show their appreciation in style.
This week, Crunchyroll announced an exclusive lineup of Godzilla streetwear. The collection is being sold on Crunchyroll Love's online store. Pre-orders are up at this link. Keep in mind once pre-orders close on June 22, the collection will not be available anymore. Also, it is only available for shipping in the United States and Canada. The collection features t-shirts, long-sleeves, hoodies, and a tote bag. Check them out in the below slideshow.
"It has been such a fantastic experience collaborating with Crunchyroll on the designs seen in the brand-new Godzilla collection, and we're excited to bring our fans new, everyday ways to celebrate the King of the Monsters," says Lora Cohn, the Managing Director, International Licensing of Toho International, Inc.
Godzilla fans appear to be in for a treat with this apparel. Who can say no to that cute SD Mothra? Longtime Godzilla fans will recognize the design on the black t-shirt with Godzilla, Mothra, and the Shobijin. It comes from IDW's second Godzilla ongoing comic book series, issue #6.

In Case of a Downturn: Extended Unemployment Insurance Is an Economic Lifeline
by Michele Evermore
Areas of expertise: Retirement Security, Social Security, Unemployment Insurance, Worker Training Read Profile
On August 14th, the Dow fell 800 points, the S&P was off by 2.9 percent, and the NASDAQ also declined by 3 percent. While this blip should not cause widespread panic, this combined with a yield curve inversion in the 2-year and 10-year Treasury bonds should trigger the start of a conversation about the importance of extending unemployment insurance in the event of a recession.
During the last recession, Congress authorized a program called Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC). Because it has been five-and-a-half years since the last EUC benefit was paid, the way this program works may not be fresh in everyone's minds.
Unemployment Insurance (UI) is a helpful financial stabilizer for unemployed individuals, their families, their communities, and the economy as a whole. Every state administers its own UI program, which provides up to 26 weeks of benefits. (Two states provide more: Montana allows for 28 weeks and Massachusetts provides for 30 weeks except in times of extremely low unemployment.) Since the last recession, however, 10 states have cut the number of weeks of benefits for which workers are eligible. While NELP has warned that state-level reductions in UI compensation could pose problems in upcoming recessions, we believe that federal extensions can help mitigate this future risk.
In theory, at the onset of an economic downturn, an automatic extension system in UI called Extended Benefits (EB) should trigger automatic increases in the number of weeks people are eligible for benefits. However, because of problems with the way the triggers are structured, EB does not kick in fast enough to provide benefits as quickly as they are needed. While we should absolutely modify those triggers, until that happens, we expect that Congress will act as it has in the past to swiftly extend benefits through an ad hoc extension program like EUC.
EUC was a fully federally funded extension of regular unemployment benefits for workers who exhausted state-level benefits. On June 30, 2008, as unemployment rates began to rise dramatically during the mortgage crisis, President George W. Bush signed into law legislation to provide 13 weeks of EUC benefits. Subsequently, as the economy remained weak, Congress passed additional extensions providing benefits through 2013, which for a time resulted in up to 99 weeks of benefits between regular UI, EB, and EUC for claimants in states experiencing continued high unemployment.
During the last recession, UI's countercyclical benefits closed almost one-fifth of the shortfall in GDP, prevented an estimated 1.4 million foreclosures and, in 2009, prevented five million workers from falling into poverty while saving two million jobs. That is because UI does more than give people a cash benefit they spend right away in their communities; it also gives workers access to employment services and keeps people attached to the workforce through federal work-search provisions. There's even evidence that longer duration of benefits ensures that workers find a more suitable match at their next job—a feature that also helps employers find the best candidates.
While the next recession may not be imminent, workers should understand the importance of extending unemployment insurance through programs like EUC, and policymakers should start to think about how they plan to approach a recession well in advance of it happening. Our economic recovery will depend upon it.

I'll have our interview with Brownell previewing NC State in a bit. Stay tuned!
The Tigers are 1-4 in ACC play thanks to a brutal early schedule, and it doesn't get easier with a road game on Saturday at #21 NC State, which beat #7 Auburn earlier in the season. The tough early ACC schedule was one of the things I asked Brownell about back in October at our Media Day at the golf course, and it has been a major story line for the Tigers. 4 of their first 6 ACC games have been on the road, and 4 of their first 6 opponents have been ranked this season. One of the two unranked opponents was at Syracuse, which beat #1 Duke in Cameron Indoor Stadium. The Tigers have a much better team than their record in the nation's toughest conference indicates, and an upset win in Raleigh on Saturday could really turn things around for Brad Brownell.


What Is Radiation Therapy Physics?
Radiation therapy physics is commonly involved in cancer treatment.
Radiation therapy physics is a branch of physics focused on the use of radiation for therapeutic purposes, particularly in the management of cancers. Some specialists in this field work in research and development to create better equipment and treatment protocols. Others work directly in patient care to supervise patients undergoing radiation therapy and work with the medical team to develop an effective and appropriate treatment plan. Practice in this field requires a thorough grounding in anatomy, physiology, and radiation physics.
Part of radiation therapy physics involves the development of new equipment for radiation therapy. The goal of radiation therapy is to destroy or disrupt cancerous cells, with minimal damage to other structures in the body. Equipment that can precisely target cancers is desirable, which requires advanced computer systems to calculate and control the beams of radiation. In addition, radiation therapy physics requires the development of dosing protocols and monitoring systems to assess the amount of radiation exposure for patients and care providers.
Safety is a significant concern with radiation therapy physics, not just in cancer care but also in the use of radiation for medical imaging studies. These researchers balance the benefits of controlled radiation with the risks of radiation exposure to develop the best techniques for patient care. This can include reassessment of existing systems. A specialist in radiation therapy physics can also be responsible for ordering, maintaining, and managing equipment used in radiation therapy at a specific facility.
In patient care, a consultant in radiation therapy physics can help select the best treatment and design a treatment plan. This specialist works with other doctors to discuss the specifics of the case and the goals of treatment. Awareness of the science behind radiation therapy allows the specialist to recommend the type of radiation, dosage, equipment, and other specifications of treatment. This includes dosimetry, the precise science of targeting radiation doses at a specific patient in response to known information about the case.
Practice in radiation therapy physics requires a college or university degree. Precise requirements can vary between regions, but many practitioners have doctorate degrees in physics and some also have medical degrees to allow them to work directly with patients. Continuing education is also an important part of the work, as radiation therapy is subject to continuous research and development that all care providers in this field need to keep up with. Conferences, trade publications, and classes provide continuing education opportunities to radiation therapy physicists who want to offer the best possible care to their patients.

Okay cool. My biggest concern with this Water Strider change was price of the water walking item. I expected FAR higher.
oh good, it's cheaper then what I thought.
The sound of the water striders' footsteps are legitimately horrible. Divested of their perk, there's absolutely no reason to use them anymore.
Right? I wanted this to be to individual mounts.
Not worth the price (losing water walking on water striders), better change their name now you're at it, like water sinkers.
You really want to buy 300 of them?
This is one of the coolest changes to the game. I look forward to seeing over the years all the different unique equipment they can devise.
Think GW2 mounts skills and such, that would have made for a good end-game progression system.
It looks like the equipment will be applied to the mount for all characters account wide. I actually like that idea. So you can have a water walker of your choice on all toons, and it can be the same one. That would be cool implementation imo. If I have to do it over and over on every character, then that would not be fun imo.
Why would you be happy to pay 50 gold for something that was previously free?
The Water Strider cost a fair penny back in the day. It was never free.
50 gold? That's a nickel. And besides, you get a free one in the mail. All I know is that my raptor can finally run on water. I am not stuck riding that ugly bug 7 months of every expansion anymore.
Problem is, if we can only use ONE mount item at once, and we can't use the waterstrider to walk on water anymore, most of us are gonna use the water-walking mount item (unless you're a DK or Shaman, of course), which will make other mount item almost worthless, unless we start carrying a LOT of each mount items in our bags to switch whenever we need to.
Kinda feels like a bad game-design choice, almost as bad as what we had before.
To my eyes, the best solution would've been to allow us to equip a different mount item for each mount in our collection, giving US the choice of which mount has what passive bonus.
I see I'm not the only one who didn't like their footstep noise. Very glad for this change.
Why not just make the water strider the same as Harvest Golem? Have it be special and unable to benefit from mount equipment This kinda kills the whole point of mount equipment, because why would you pick any other equipmen over water walking.
Not PvPers in 8.2. Warmode folks will probably almost exclusively be using the parachute pack since in Warmode everyone is given the ability to dismount any players that are flying. The thing has almost unlimited range too. PvE folks will likely be going for the anti daze or water walk. Why is it that you do not like having options? lol Oh, I'll put mine in bold too since you did!
Why? None of it will ever get used. This was a solution for a problem that simply did not exist. The only way this makes any sense is if the gear can be equipped per mount. Most people will simply apply the water walking one and never touch it again.
Incorrect, I 100% will definitely be using this. I lost nothing and gained water walking raptors. Although, soon I'll be flying, but now with each new expansion I am not forced to ride that bug. That was the problem.

RSA Blog - August 2019
Current: Digital Transformation: A New Line Item for Today's Business Leaders
Digital Transformation: A New Line Item for Today's Business Leaders
Aug 05, 2019 | by Allison Ockerbloom
At its core, digital transformation drives a dramatic shift in traditional business processes from analog to digital. Today's security and risk professionals are tasked with finding a balance between harnessing advancements in technology and navigating an ever-changing risk landscape.
"What we're hearing from customers is that the complexity of architecture is putting more stress on identity and response," says Ben Desjardins, VP of Product Marketing, RSA, during a recent webinar on the top security and risk trends of 2019.
"The landscape has expanded so drastically and is moving so quickly [that] organizations need to be seriously thinking about adopting security analytics," says Dr. Branden Williams, Director, Cybersecurity, MUFG, in response to the changes security teams need to make to adjust to the adoption of new digital services. For many organizations, the answer to this challenge is automation. To help "lower dwell time," Dr. Williams says automation is becoming an integral part of identification and response strategies and is being built into many threat detection tools. The increased adoption of automation also becomes a needed tool for addressing the growing skills gap. According to the Gartner report, Top Security and Risk Management Trends, January 2019, "The number of unfilled cybersecurity roles is expected to grow from 1 million in 2018 to 1.5 million by the end of 2020."
In addition to the resource strain, the shift to digital has a dramatic impact on the traditional IT perimeter. "Today, there is no more perimeter," says Dr. Williams. "It's been poked full of holes." As organizations adopt more mobile technology and embrace technology with more endpoints, the security team's job is made even harder. The result: organizations need to be honest about "what risks are associated with the innovations they're adding into their environment" before adopting it, advises Dr. Williams.
This echoes conversations heard from security and risk professionals at RSA Conference earlier this year in San Francisco. There is a need for open dialogue between security and business leaders. "[Organizations] embark on digital transformation without understanding the risks." explained Otavo Freire, President and CTO of SafeGuard Cyber, underlining the reason why collaboration is needed to avoid the creation of potential vulnerabilities.
As companies continue to undergo digital transformation, the growing amount of data (and the responsibility to manage it) is, no doubt, overwhelming today's security teams. Because organizations are "drowning in a sea of data," security teams need to focus on the right data set, which is why investing in tools that can help the SOC identify, assess and respond to risks quickly is crucial, says Dr. Williams.
Adding to the list of security team responsibilities: the cloud. Although not a new trend, IT teams are continuing to migrate services to cloud environments. In the Gartner report, Top Security and Risk Management Trends, January 2019, a survey of technical professionals based primarily in Northern America found that "40 percent of respondents indicated their organizations would be spending the majority of new or additional funding on the cloud." But are cloud adoptees prepared to manage the associated risks that could impact the business? When it comes to migrating a workload to the cloud, Williams explains it's imperative for organizations to do more research upfront to understand what the process involves. In his view, organizations need to ensure "[they're] getting the benefits [they] were promised." The mindset needs to shift away from "right click and migrate to cloud" to organizations driving the migration through strategic planning.
What trends will next impact security and risk professionals?
As the skills gap grows and adversely challenges lean security teams, many are taking on an "agile mentality" as a way to "get around processes," said Williams. This trend was first realized in the focus on DevOps. Because IT moves faster than security teams, they're often "maneuvering" around standing policies that are in place to help "deliver predictable outcomes." This maneuvering is creating both cyber and digital risk – all of which is avoidable.
What's the solution? It starts by wiping the traditional negative view of risk teams. "For years, risk management teams were strictly seen as the 'compliance team,' but organizations need to get beyond that thinking," argues Desjardins. Instead, he offered that risk needs to be playing a larger role in helping IT and the business plan for the future. Going forward, as opportunities arise to digitally transform your organization, how will your security and risk teams manage the risks?

Catherine has over ten years experience in the film industry as a journalist and producer. Magic Trick will be her directorial debut. Her writing debut in 2013 was The Other Plans, an all-female play which ran for one sold out week at the Colour House Theatre in Merton.
Set in the North London suburbs Magic Trick is a dark drama about a mother and her children navigating a tragic incident.


Seth became nineteen just yesterday. He left his family to finally fulfill his lifelong dream – enter the service of the airship for captain Strata. Before the ship even left port, he was constantly pacing back and forth on the deck, fascinated, looking at the height of the masts and sails. He held his breath at the thought, that those hanging wooden fins now harmlessly hanging along the hull, will be harvesting clouds for fuel – rare phlogiston.
Parents warned him before the sky pirates, but he just waved his hand. He believed, that Sky Guild will protect them, just as it does its job for several decades. Simultaneously, he knew, that flying offers numerous other hazards. But they were still only traders, what could happen?
When they set sail, his question has got a relatively quick response. From other sailors stories, he had learned, that there is mysterious and probably very valuable cargo on board their ship, and their job is to transport it safely to the capital. From then on, he continued to perform his duties, but he held his breath every time a growing skyline of other ship appeared on the horizon. Pirates, he has thought, but it was just another businessmen. And then, when he finally began to believe everything is allright, pirates have finally arrived..
And even you have certainly sometimes wondered, what it's like to sail in the clouds and enjoy the wind in your hair. No noisy engines, only the magical forces of nature and a bit of science to it. Someone fulfilled his dream with a balloon, while the others will play Sky Traders. Game from Fantasy Flight Games was created by the Italian Gioacchino Prestigiacomo and beautiful illustrations are presentation of crafty illustrators – Miguel Coimbra (7 Wonders, Arcana), Nicolas Fructus (Takenoko) and Christophe Madura.
Sky Traders are new game for 2012. This board game belongs to series of larger and more advanced games, as we will soon see. Cards are often wearing a short text in english, so knowledge of a english language is necessary this time, despite the fact, that Sky Traders are essentially a fairly simple game.
Even from lid of the box, you can easily feel the atmosphere of beautiful colored world filled with adventure. And it even does not change, when you take your hand and turn pages in the guide. It is presented beautifully, full of elegant illustrations and layout with complete care. You may become a little scared of its thickness, but the rules themselves are beginning on page 14 and on page 24 you can basically start playing. Additionally, other space in the pages is occupied by illustrated examples, which will help you understand everything on the first try.
But now we should tell you, what will you actually have on the table, while playing those lofty traders. You yourself will become one of five busts. Each character is different, and also has a different base color to be clearly visible. This figure will indicate your position on the world map.
World is assembled of fourteen large hex pieces, where you will find various pictures of cities, clouds, flying plains, but also phlogiston geyser or volcano. These pieces have a small label describing their specific resources and some sides contain red or brown arrows essential for the preparation of the game plan.
In addition to these pieces of locations, which immediately reminded us of Ventura (review), you can see also ship cargo space cards made in color of each player. The ship has six places in its hull, where you can store goods and transport them – two barrels of materials fit in one of them. In bottom of ship silhouette there is a measure of fuel, which gives all those ships moving capabilities – behind that is severally mentioned phlogiston.
Then there are two common tables – one will indicate the price of eight kinds of goods on the market, the second is the spiral path tracking victory points. Players start at the outer edge and gradually work their way to the center, where they can experience fifty influence and victory.
Now we are waiting just for chips and cards, but both come in relatively large numbers. Cards are of five distinctive species – the first deck contains Ill Winds cards, which can harm or help you, but their effect can not be avoided. Then there are crew cards, damage cards and improvements of cargo space. Larger (in Ill Wind cards way) is one lone with key picture – it servers as starting player indicator.
And the rest are just piles of tokens. The most interesting are the barrels with goods in eight colors. They are well chosen and distinguishable from each other. There are also several square wanted tokens, which you can become during match, and of course money in five different coin values. They are called piastres here. The final component made of the cardboard is eight oval tags used to highlight the current prices of tradable products.
But we totally forgot about the caps, which indicate influence points and also supply of phlogiston on your ship. In conclusion, then we also have to mention trio of colored dice for each player, usable during combat, but also in one of the most important activity of the game – bargaining for price of goods for upcoming turn.
To begin playing Sky Traders, your first need to prepare the world map on the table. Hexagonal pieces are dealt among players and they then take turns playing them on the table. Their playing follows few basic rules – most important is, that arrows on the sides must always connect brown to red and vice versa. Now we just prepare all the decks and piles next to the map, only crew cards should be split by type – persons are not drawn randomly, but recruited.
Each player takes one ship card and also all the corresponding colored segments – one bust and two hats. He lays one on the influence counter on zero and the other on his ship – it was fully tanked with phlogiston up to maximum ten. Each player gets twenty piasters and one man in the crew. One of depots is thereby made into a cabin and it cannot be used for transporting goods, until you let employee go.
Now only market has to be prepared, with its starting prices. You take ellipses with a hole in the middle and all lay them to the leftmost position with lowest value. The only exception is the value of the black market, which will be the biggest production – fifty – the most right. Players randomly determine (by throw of the dice) their starting position in one of the six available cities.
Preparation work in Sky Traders is done. Surprisingly simple, is not it? The good news is, that the game itself is also that simple and complex things begin to sail up only, when you start to think over the best way to victory. And rules will not concern you.
At the beginning of his turn, each player reveals one of thirty Ill Wind cards, reads it aloud, and follows its text. This is the end of peaceful part of turn. Remaining three phases have a time limit set to two minutes together, as is said in the rules. It is mainly for the smooth course of the game, so no player hesitates indefinitely with his decisions.
First, player can move his airship on one of the neighboring fields. The distance traveled by the ship is determined by the player himself, by price he is willing to pay in fuel. Up to a distance of three is distance directly equal to the amount consumed phlogiston (1-1, 2-2, 3-3), but if the player wants to travel further, his spendings increase – for four positions its five phlogiston and for five units ten – that is the entire tank of the airship. Faster movement can also be made through hyperzephyr gates, acting like portals.
The third phase of the turn gives players the opportunity to just get rid of cargo or crew. It does not cost anything, but you gain nothing for this activity either. You only make space for additional cargo, before the last and most important phase comes up.
This is place, where you can choose one of four possible actions. Two of them are available at all times, while trading can be carried out only in city. Each city is wearing a type of material, which it produces and sells. All other goods can be sold for profit there. Moreover, you can also fill up your phlogiston tank, hire crew, buy improvements of cargo space or repair your ship after some battle.
Free mineral extraction is also possible only in a city space. Simply throw two dice and you will find equal number of the cheapest mineral, which can you load into your ship for free. If you manage to roll two identical numbers, you get also valuable jewelry barrel.
The other two options, which can be done anywhere in the sky, is mining clouds for phlogiston or attack on one of the competing airships. The first option is a simple extraction of clouds. Thanks to this, you can never become stuck without fuel. It will only cost you extra time to refill your fuel tank.
The final piece of the puzzle is obviously battle between two airships. This takes place with the help of dice and cards, when you gradually select your crew members. Not simultaneously, but in turns. Each player sends one man into battle with one dice roll – lower sum gets ship damage.
At the end of each round, all players will be able to vote for market change. Players roll three dice and can assign them in row of the value rolled. It can be put on left or right side, depending on where you want the price to go – up or down. Once everyone played his dice, votes are evaluated and prices are shifted accordingly.
The game end is simple – you can win by reaching the point of fifty on influence track. Those positions are getting more and more costly, as you get to the center. But after the market prices adjustment is the only time, when you can spend your piasters and buy influence in the Sky Guild. Once a participant reaches the center of the spiral, its last round for everyone. If there were more players, who reach 50 in one turn, then money and value of goods is the tiebreaker.
As you can see, Sky Traders are actually really simple game with a lot of business strategies and the possibility to influence the price or trade only a particular product. Stocks are not restricted, so everyone can easily trade with the same raw materials. But since you can always buy it only in one place, you would most certainly be more flexible than that.
But money can be earned in other ways – like catching wanted pirates (players) or get waste out of the city. Both of these illegal activities may get into trouble, because even peaceful traders can get a wanted token, if they commit some crime – attack a peaceful ship or dump toxic waste into a city. From that moment on, you are wanted and others are not penalized for attacking you. They get big reward instead!
Great importance is put on the change of market prices, which happen at the end of each round. Here players can significantly affect the price of their current goods and barrels, or lower price for cargo of others. It is important to have a bit of luck here, because you have to rely on the numbers, which you roll. But as you gain influence, you can gradually control some dice results.
It is important, that all players vote and everyone can put his vote to any side – plus or minus of the number thrown. So you can actually ultimately benefit from each dice and it does not matter, which number you rolled. You must simultaneously monitor position of your boat to know, how you can take advantage of changes of values in your favor.
Battles are indeed part of the game Sky Traders, but it depends only on players, whether they will attack each other. Therefore, you do not have to, worry if you like strategy games and do not like to be forced into battle. In this case, you can experience a truly peaceful game, disrupted only with occasional sneaky Ill Winds cards. They can even attack you!
Luck will have large impact on your experience. It is present in several situations. The most significant and visible at first glance is drawing of Ill Wind Cards, which can cost you a lot. The event always refers to the player, who drew it, so it can be costly. Similarly, there is coincidence in combat, but that does not happen as often. But when it happens, others may seem it a bit lengthy. Conversely luck is no problem at the polls on the market prices, where you can even exchange the dice with others and negotiate. This is the best feature of the game, but without the other components, it would not do the trick. So if you do not like chance – be careful. On the other hand, in revised rules there are ways to avoid some random places (like payment for removal of sludge).
The whole game looks really great. I have read somewhere, that it is perhaps a little too cute. For us, there is just right amount of those colors and unusual illustrations. In addition, everything looks very nicely spaced and feeling is enhanced with captain busts. A+ for processing for Sky Traders.
The only thing, which seems like a downside, when it comes to less experienced players, is rather long game time. One game of Sky Traders may take up to two hours of your times, even though you apply the principle of two minutes per player turn. And it may seem too much, although it seems like a fair time for such complex trading game for us. All the time game changes and you experience interesting game development. Fortunately, there is a modification in the rules, which will shorten the game to about two-thirds and approach this one hour magic number – this rule reduces costs of influence boxes.
Rules theselves are simple, yet they were a few minor shortcomings, which were fixed by publisher after game was distributed. In particular, there is a value of the black market, which is supposed to start at zero according to original rules. Of course this is changed to fifty, just as we have described in game preparation. The second important change concerns the limit of dice, that can be added to the poll, when voting for prices. Now you can put up to four dice everywhere, but only some of them are counted for the purpose of shifting goods value up and down, so there are no rushed changes.
Sky Traders seem complicated, but in fact they are simple strategic business game. Load, transport and sell raw materials, exactly like an economic game should work. You can fight with your airships, hire crew and influence the market. Everything is composed perfectly, and no part of the mechanism seems to be here for nothing. Game is a little longer, which spoils the impression for less experienced players. Nevertheless, we recommend Sky Traders to all, who like to trade, whether by land, water or air.
Sky Traders is a game, which will astonish you with its looks and theme. Who would not wish to become captain of an airship? Thanks to this game, you can. And you can use it to trade materials and sell them with profit in other towns. You are kind of speculants. Whole planet is dependent on fuel called phlogiston. But price of goods is altered every round by all players voting for some of them. But before you market through to the end, it will take more than two hours, which is quite long. Fortunately rules contain faster variant, which will speed things up a little bit, but you will still jump over 90 minutes per game in two. But you will not be bored during the match, there is development the whole time. Some plans might be interrupted by bad luck, when it comes to Ill Wind cards. But it has a decisive side also in battles. Sky Traders is a game of intrigue and trading and that is, how we should approach it. And it excels in both. Its fun. We used evalutaion with word GOOD, but its just a little bit under a GREAT tag. Only the bad luck threw it down a little. But if you like its looks and theme, then you should definitely consider buying it. It is worth trying. But do not forget - use corrected rules!

Title: A VLSI efficient programmable power-of-two scaler for 2n-1, 2n,2n+1 RNS
Authors: Low, Jeremy Yung Shern
Chang, Chip Hong
Keywords: DRNTU::Engineering::Electrical and electronic engineering
Source: Low, J. Y. S., & Chang, C. H. (2012). A VLSI efficient programmable power-of-two scaler for 2n-1, 2n,2n+1 RNS. IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I : Regular Papers, 59(12), 2911-2919.
Series/Report no.: IEEE transactions on circuits and systems I : regular papers
Abstract: Variable scaling by power-of-two factor is the backbone operation of floating point arithmetic and is also commonly used in fixed-point digital signal processing (DSP) system for overflow prevention. While this operation can be readily performed in binary number system, it is extremely difficult to implement in residue number system (RNS). In the absence of an efficient solution to scale an integer directly in residue domain by a programmable power-of-two factor, improvised architecture by cascading fixed RNS scaling-by-two blocks has been previously presented. However, its area complexity and time complexity are worse than a hybrid solution leveraging on binary shifting through efficient residue-to-binary and binary-to-residue conversions. This paper presents a new algorithm for scaling in {2n - 1,2n,2n + 1} RNS by a programmable power-of-two factor. The proposed scaling algorithm breaks the inter-modulus dependency and produces a parallel architecture incurring no more than two logarithmic shifters, one-stage of carry-save adder and a modulo adder in any modulus channel. Comparing with the only available and most efficient hybrid programmable power-of-two scaler for the same moduli set, our proposed design has not only significantly reduced the critical path delay by 52.2%, 52.8%, 53.1%, and 53.2% for n = 5 , 6, 7, and 8, respectively, but also cut down the area by 14.1% on average based on CMOS 0.18 μm standard cell based implementation. In addition, our proposed design has effectively reduced the total power consumption by 43.8% and the leakage power by 20.6% on average.

Constitutional Rights in the Machine-Learning State
Aziz Z. Huq
Frank and Bernice J. Greenberg Professor of Law, University of Chicago Law School.
This Article offers a start to the larger project of developing a general account of substantive rules and enforcement mechanisms to promote due process, privacy, and equality norms in the machine-learning state. Cataloging notable state and municipal adoptions of machine-learning tools, it considers how existing constitutional norms can be recalibrated (in the case of due process and equality) or retooled (in the case of privacy). It further reexamines the enforcement regime for constitutional interests in light of machine learning's dissemination. Today, constitutional rights are (largely) enforced through discrete, individual legal actions. Machine learning's normative implications arise from systemic design choices. The retail enforcement mechanisms that currently dominate the constitutional remedies context are therefore particularly ill fitting. Instead, a careful mix of ex ante regulation and ex post aggregate litigation, which are necessary complements, is more desirable.
Presidential War Powers, The Take Care, and Article 2(4) of the U.N. Charter
Brian Finucane
The author serves as an attorney-adviser at the U.S. Department of State. He prepared this Article in his personal capacity, and the views expressed here do not necessarily represent the views of the Department of State or the U.S. government.
This Article argues that by virtue of the Take Care Clause Article 2(4) of the U.N. Charter binds the President as a matter of domestic law. In substantiating this proposition, this Article relies primarily upon the arguments of the Executive Branch itself in three superficially distinct, though interrelated domains. By synthesizing Executive Branch views on war powers, the Take Care Clause, and Article 2(4), this Article shows how presidential arguments advancing claims of authority also delineate the scope of the corresponding constitutional duties. The Take Care Clause gives and takes at once. If the President is not constrained by treaties, the President also lacks the power to execute them.
I rebut a 1989 Office of Legal Counsel memorandum by now-Attorney General William Barr that concluded that the President may unilaterally "override" Article 2(4) because the treaty provision is non-self-executing and because the use of force is a "political question." I explain that, though the political question and non-self-execution doctrines may be relevant to the justiciability of Article 2(4) in the courts, neither is dis-positive as to the status of Article 2(4) as a "Law" that the President is obligated to faithfully execute. The conclusion that Article 2(4) is a "Law" has significant implications for the allocation of war powers. Contrary to Barr's 1989 memo, by virtue of the last-in-time rule, it is Congress—not the President—that possesses the authority to "override" this treaty provision.
In Defense of Breakups: Administering a "Radical" Remedy
Rory Van Loo, Associate Professor of Law, Boston University; Affiliated Fellow, Yale Law School Information Society Project
Calls for breaking up monopolies—especially Amazon, Facebook, and Google—have largely focused on proving that companies like Whole Foods, Instagram, and YouTube are anticompetitive. But scholars have paid insufficient attention to a separate step in the analysis that may help explain why the government in recent decades has not broken up a single large company. . . . This Article asserts that the pervasive hesitancy about administering breakups renders antitrust impotent in the face of monopolies—too often a statutory right without a remedy. More importantly, the Article challenges the perception of breakups as unadministrable.
Against Prosecutors
I. Bennett Capers, Professor of Law and Director of the Center on Race, Law, and Justice, Fordham Law School. B.A. Princeton University; J.D. Columbia Law School.
Each year our jails cycle through approximately ten million people, the vast majority charged with nonviolent crimes. We are at a point where one in every three adults in America has a criminal record, and where for every fifteen persons born in 2001, one will likely spend time in jail or prison. Compared to other countries, the crime rate in the United States is not exceptional, and yet we have by far the highest incarceration rate in the world. None of this can be solved by simply tinkering with the machinery of prosecution. It is time to rethink why and how we prosecute in the first place. What would it mean to turn away from public prosecutors and not rely on the criminal justice system as the first responder to address social ills, such as mental illness and poverty (two of the main drivers of our prison industrial complex)? More radically, what would it mean to turn away from state controlled prosecution as the primary way to address crime? What would it mean to replace a system where prosecutors hold a monopoly in deciding which cases are worthy of pursuit with a system in which "we the people," including those of us who have traditionally had little power, would be empowered to seek and achieve justice ourselves? This Article attempts to answer these questions.
FRAND and Antitrust
Herbert Hovenkamp, James B. Dinan University Professor, University of Pennsylvania Law School and The Wharton School.
This Article addresses one question: when is a Standard Setting Organization (SSO) participant's violation of a FRAND commitment an antitrust violation, and if it is, of what kind and what are the implications for remedies? It warns against two extremes. One is thinking that any violation of a FRAND commitment is an antitrust violation as well. In the first instance FRAND obligations are contractual, and most breaches of contract do not violate any antitrust law. The other extreme is thinking that, because a FRAND violation is a breach of contract, it cannot also be an antitrust violation. The question of an antitrust violation does not depend on whether the conduct breached a particular agreement but rather on whether it caused competitive harm. This can happen because the conduct restrained trade under section 1 of the Sherman Act, was unreasonably exclusionary under section 2 of the Sherman Act, or amounted to an anticompetitive condition or understanding as defined by section 3 of the Clayton Act. The end goal is to identify practices that harm competition, thereby injuring consumers.
Equity, Punishment, and the Company You Keep: Discerning A Disgorgement Remedy Under the Federal Securities Laws
Theresa A. Gabaldon, Lyle T. Alverson Professor of Law, The George Washington University Law School; J.D. 1978, Harvard Law School; B.S. 1975, University of Arizona.
This Article first provides background on the judicial development of the SEC disgorgement remedy, up to and through Kokesh. It then examines parallel legislative developments, touching on the fraught subject of legislative history. After describing this necessary context, the Article relies on it to illuminate a problem endemic to litigation about federal remedies. This has to do with the promiscuous use of the word "equitable," which appears to have greatly complicated any attempt to make sense of disgorgement. The confusion resulting from a sea of unexamined assumptions about "equity" that floats throughout the relevant cases and commentary has obscured a central issue. This is the difference between whether a remedy exists—the primary subject of this Article—and whether, if it does, there are constitutional consequences. In the process of shedding light on this subject, this Article answers three specific questions. The first is whether a right to seek disgorgement could be said to exist as a function of the Commission's express authority to seek equitable remedies. The second is whether the SEC's right to seek disgorgement could be said to exist at law. The third, which assumes an affirmative answer to both of the first two, is which of the two characterizations is more appropriate.
Degrees of Deference: Applying vs. Adopting Another Sovereign's Law
Kevin M. Clermont, Ziff Professor of Law, Cornell University
Familiar to all Federal Courts enthusiasts is the Erie distinction between federal actors' obligatory application of state law and their voluntary adoption of state law as federal law. This Article's thesis is that this significant distinction holds in all other situations where a sovereign employs another's law: not only in the analogous reverse-Erie resolution of…
Lawyers' Abuse of Technology
Cheryl B. Preston, Edwin M. Thomas Professor of Law, Emerita, J. Reuben Clark Law School, Brigham Young University
The Article is a thorough analysis of how the current scheme for regulating lawyers has failed to adapt to technology and why that failure is disastrous. It discusses (1) why technology, electronic communications, and social media require specialized attention in lawyer regulation, (2) what mechanisms can be harnessed to meet this need, and (3) the…

Susan Navarro Smelcer, Assistant Professor of Law, Georgia State Law
To the extent concurring opinions elicit commentary at all, it is largely contempt. They are condemned for muddying the clarity of the law, fracturing the court, and diminishing the authoritative voice of the majority. But what if this neglect, or even disdain, of concurring opinions is off the mark? In this article, we argue for…
International Cybertorts: Expanding State Accountability in Cyberspace
Rebecca Crootof, Assistant Professor of Law, University of Richmond School of Law
States are not being held accountable for the vast majority of their harmful cyberoperations, largely because classifications created in physical space do not map well onto the cyber domain. Most injurious and invasive cyberoperations are not cybercrimes and do not constitute cyberwarfare, nor are states extending existing definitions of wrongful acts permitting countermeasures to cyberoperations…

I love NASCAR. I watch the races on TV, go to the tracks, I even driven on several of the super speedways.
Every wonder what fascinates guys about NASCAR?
It is explosions, not wrecks -- explosions.
Every since the 9th century when the Chinese invented gun powder, men have been fascinated about explosions. The sound, the power - fascinating as Spock would say.
What we have tried very successfully to do in auto racing is harness the power of an explosion and turn it into something useful - like motion.
When an 4 cylinder engine is turning 9,000 RPMs that's 9,000 explosions per minute. In a big stock car V-8, that's 18,000 explosions per minute Success!
Formula 1 cars shriek, Indy cars whine but stock cars roar. You can hear the explosions and the power. Stand close enough grand national stock car you can actually feel the power.
If you go to Daytona for either of the two NASCAR races, the ground actually trembles on the starting lap. Now that's sound and fury.
I am one of those guys that routes the TV race sound thru the stereo, all 500 watts or so, and when they say crank it up -- I do. The Bose speakers leap to life.
The dogs hide, the bird puts her head under her wing, the wine glasses rattle. I think I have actually seen the curtains flutter.
Explosions at their absolute best. I love it!
This week there was a lot of press about electric cars. I think they are the wave of the future. We are one breakthrough away from the electric powered vehicle going viral as they say. It will either be in electric motor technology or battery science. There are literally thousands of researchers working on the problem as you read this.
What happens to NASCAR when cars go electric?
No explosions. No sound, no fury, no ground trembling just silence or a soft whoooosh as they blow by at 200MPH.
To get a feel for how all of this might work, during this weeks race, I set up a large fan, cranked up the stereo and then simply pushed MUTE and turned on the fan.
I can't imagine what it would be like in the grandstands. You would actually have to talk to the person next to you because you could hear them.
NASCAR needs to start a research program on a noisy electric motor because without the sound and the fury, it just won't be NASCAR.

Obama Renews Call for Public Option in Health Law to Compete With Private Insurers
Not lacking for ideas. Only allies. (White House)
President Barack Obama Monday called on Congress to revisit the controversial idea of providing a government-run insurance plan as part of the offerings under the Affordable Care Act.
The so-called "public option" was jettisoned from the health law by a handful of conservative Democrats in the Senate in 2009. Every Democrat's vote was needed to pass the bill in the face of unanimous Republican opposition.
But in a "special communication" article published on the website of the Journal of the American Medical Association, the president said a lack of insurance plan competition in some areas may warrant a new look.
"Now, based on experience with the ACA, I think Congress should revisit a public plan to compete alongside private insurers in areas of the country where competition is limited," Obama wrote.
The president also called on Congress to take more steps to rein in the cost of prescription drugs and make government assistance more generous for those who still cannot afford health coverage, while urging the 19 states that have not yet expanded the Medicaid program under the health law to do it.
The public option has been a point of controversy from the start. It was included in the version of the health law passed by the House, and had support from most Democrats in the Senate, before it was dropped. Many liberals hoped — and conservatives feared — that having the government provide insurance alongside private companies would be a step toward a full government-run system.
Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton — under pressure from Sen. Bernie Sanders' call for a single-payer government system — in February endorsed the idea of including a public option to allow people age 55 and older to purchase Medicare coverage. On Saturday, as part of a deal with Sanders, Clinton announced she will also "pursue efforts to give Americans in every state in the country the choice of a public-option insurance plan," which is broader than what Obama is endorsing.
But even if Clinton wins and the Democrats take back control of Congress in November, a true public option remains a political longshot.
The article, titled "United States Health Care Reform: Progress to Date and Next Steps," is apparently the first by a sitting president published by the prestigious medical journal.
It includes a justification for the health law, statistics on how its implementation has improved both insurance coverage and health care quality, as well as recommendations for further action.
Kristie Canegallo, the White House deputy chief of staff for implementation, told a group of health reporters that the article grew out of a comprehensive review of the law ordered by the president late last year.
The review was to look at "what's working, what's not, and what we should do about it," she said. Upon receiving the review, she added, Obama "thought it was important to share some of this publicly."
Among those parts of the law the administration says are working are the coverage provisions. "The number of uninsured individuals in the United States has declined from 49 million in 2010 to 29 million in 2015," the president wrote.
The article also claims that the health law has played a substantial role in slowing the rate of health spending.
"While the Great Recession and other factors played a role in recent trends, the [president's] Council of Economic Advisers has found evidence that the reforms introduced by the ACA helped both slow health care costs growth and drive improvements in the quality of care," says the article.
Jason Furman, chairman of the council, told reporters at the briefing that the continuing slow growth in health spending so many years out from the recession makes the argument that the economy is mostly responsible for the slowdown "absurd at this point."
While most of the piece is a chart-driven, footnoted recitation of the impact of the health law, Obama did use his perch to suggest the current state of politics in Washington threatens progress going forward.
"Any change is difficult, but it is especially difficult in the face of hyperpartisanship," he wrote. "Republicans reversed course and rejected their own ideas once they appeared in the text of a bill that I supported."
Republicans, however, are continuing their assault on the health law. Just last week, two House Committees released a joint investigative report and held two hearings asserting that the administration is illegally providing funds to help lower-income individuals pay for their health coverage.
The claim is also the subject of a lawsuit currently in federal court.
The White House, however, remains unimpressed with by the claim.
"The Department of Justice … has made clear we have a permanent appropriation for this," said Canegallo.

Conservative Democrats, now that's one hell of an oxymoron!

You get what you and who you voted for. Back when it was voted in remember what Pelosi said [leader of congress] We don't know what we're approving, we'll look at it when it's voted into Law.
Tired of it says:
Hasn't this poor excuse for a President screwed up this country enough? Just go away!
Coyote says:
Regardless of WHO said this, or which party they are a member of – it is one of the biggest problems this country is facing today. The whole idea of "What's good for the Country?" has been degraded to "What does MY party support?" and "If it's from the 'other' side, we *HAVE* to vote it down – regardless of whether it does the country/state/county/city any good".
The only real agenda of BOTH the Democratic and the Republican parties seems to be the continued existence of the party system – regardless of what it costs our country and citizens.

No new anything under this President. Lets just wait until the next loser gets in office and make up yet another name for health care reform.
Obama 2016 says:
It's amazing to me how many people bash Obama considering his administration had deported more illegals and killed more terrorist than any other.
Obama has also signed 3 pro gun bills and has done everything possible to make healthcare affordable and protect our troops and their families since 2009.
Congress and the Senate have done nothing but try and unravel rights and block any plans to allow this country to evolve. Americans should be mad at the men and woman that take money to vote for special interest because they are the real reason our country has some major issues.
Also how would you do if the minute the people elected you the republicans said the main goal to keep you from getting a second term? I am sure most keyboard warriors would have just given up and walked away like Sarah Palin did but Obama didn't. He kept pushing and being an amazing leader for our country.

But let me ask you..
What has the Republican party done for you?
Some of what Obama has done since 2009:
May 2, 2011 Order to kill Osama bin Laden successful.
ADDED about 9.5 million jobs during his term — from the time Obama took office in January 2009 through July 2016
$186 billion in tax relief for all tax payers by extending the Bush income tax cuts for 2010 & 2011
$70 billion in tax relief for middle class workers by patching the Alternative Minimum Tax for one year
Tax credit of $400 per worker ($800 per couple) for middle income workers for 2009 & 2010 totaling $116 billion
1.45 million American jobs saved overall by government financing and restructuring of GM and Chrysler to avoid liquidation
All Freedom of Information responses to be posted online after a successful pilot program was permanately expanded and signed into law
40 ISIS operatives responsible for multiple attacks in Europe and the Middle East killed by Delta Force and Navy SEAL commandos during various raids
Homeowners taken advantage of by deceptive mortgage practices received HARP assistance to keep homes
Ten Navy sailors detained by Iran after accidentally sailing into their waters freed within 24 hours through diplomatic negotiations
Solar and wind energy production to double in size through a five year extension of Federal tax credits
Government mandated threshold for all hourly workers to qualify for overtime pay increased from $23,660 to $50,440.
Think about that as a Reality Show Real Estate agent that has more lawsuits and bankruptcies than a normal person can count sign sits on your lawn.
Dear Obama,
Congress can't do anything because Obama won't sign anything they pass into law. What has Obama compromised on? Hence, his overreaching Executive Orders.
P.S. I am sure if any President had Osama in his sites he would have killed him. And How many illegal immigrants have entered the country while he has deported record number, which he has not. When you decipher the difference between "returns" and "removals"then tell me about "deportations". Talk to me about FOIA when hillary releases all her info. Jobs saved? How many people aren't even looking for work? Tax relief, your delusional. Saved our sailor? Maybe they should never have been captured in the first place. Our country is in the sh*tter thanks to our divider-in-chief. Don't even get me started on the $2500 health care savings and you can keep your doctor.
Having an option similar to Medicare for EVERYONE is a really GREAT idea! Keeping the quality and astronomical costs our health care controlled by "for profit" industries like insurance companies and the pharmaceutical companies that maximize their profits by gouging our sick and injured citizens is obscene!
Let's all move beyond partisan thinking and voting. . . and passionately support providing high quality health care at a reasonable price for all!
To all President Obama Bashers. . . While "twice elected" President Obama's approval ratings are at 50%, the "Republican" party is only at 35%, and the "Republican" controlled Congress approval rating is deplorable at 31%. . . take a look at the pew research web site:

@Mark.
Obama vetoed 10 bills in 7+ years, 0 have been overwritten. Here are the bills and Obama's reasons.
http://www.senate.gov/reference/Legislation/Vetoes/ObamaBH.htm
Maybe if Congress and the Senate would stop putting in riders in the bills he wouldn't have to veto them?
The Senate and Congress has been in GOP control for a few years now, why can't you override his vetos?
Executive Orders are necessary when you have a do nothing Congress and Senate,
Executive Orders seemed to be OK with Bush and Reagan was in office but if Obama does it he is a dictator.
Bush SR 166 (4 years)
Bush JR 291
Reagan 381
Nixon 346
All I provided are facts, you can Benghazi them as much as you want. Anyone that thinks this country is int he shi**ter hasn't seen what the rest of the world is like.
Our country is great but we do have issues. Just like any where else.
Stop hiding your ignorance behind your patriotism. That is what is dividing this country.

It's difficult to override a veto when you don't have enough votes to do it, because of the obstructionist DemocRATs. It's not the amount of Eos that is the problem, it's the overreach. Ever hear of the Constitution. Dear leader can't make law. What is dividing the country is leaderships policies or lack thereof. Leading by delusional reaction is not leading. Nothing ignorant about it. Just look at the streets alive with protestors. Look at the state of our military. Look at the state of our stagnant economy. Look at how many people are on food stamps and not even looking for work. look at the cost of healthcare and the failing exchanges. Look at the state of race relations. And Obama is worried about global warming and who is using what bathroom. Yes, ignorance abounds and half the country has their heads up their a**es, Guess which half. The Senate under McConnell has passed more legislation in the last year than Reid did in 4 years of lame leadership. Facts.
Obama 2016. . . thanks for the "factual" information! Unfortunately. . . Obama bashers are not interested in watering down their prejudices with actual FACTS. They prefer to spew partisan fear and hatred regardless of any truth!
Dear Geezer. . . always injecting humor while making an excellent point . . . I love it! Bon Jour from high on the cliff above gorgeous Villefranche-Sur-Mer!
For all the Trump supporters. . . take a look at what well over 1,500 Wharton students, alumni and teachers think of him:
You Do Not Represent Us: An Open Letter to Donald Trump
Dear Mr. Trump:
At the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, students are taught to represent the highest levels of respect and integrity. We are taught to embrace humility and diversity. We can understand why, in seeking America's highest office, you have used your degree from Wharton to promote and lend legitimacy to your candidacy.
As a candidate for President, and now as the presumptive GOP nominee, you have been afforded a trans-formative opportunity to be a leader on national and international stages and to make the Wharton community even prouder of our school and values.
However, we have been deeply disappointed in your candidacy.
We, proud students, alumni, and faculty of Wharton, are outraged that an affiliation with our school is being used to legitimize prejudice and intolerance. Although we do not aim to make any political endorsements with this letter, we do express our unequivocal stance against the xenophobia, sexism, racism, and other forms of bigotry that you have actively and implicitly endorsed in your campaign.
The Wharton community is a diverse community. We are immigrants and children of immigrants, people of color, Muslims, Jews, women, people living with or caring for those with disabilities, and members of the LGBTQ community. In other words, we represent the groups that you have repeatedly denigrated, as well as their steadfast friends, family, and allies.
We recognize that we are fortunate to be educated at Wharton, and we are committed to using our opportunity to make America and the world a better place — for everyone. We are dedicated to promoting inclusion not only because diversity and tolerance have been repeatedly proven to be valuable assets to any organization's performance, but also because we believe in mutual respect and human dignity as deeply held values. Your insistence on exclusion and scapegoating would be bad for business and bad for the American economy. An intolerant America is a less productive, less innovative, and less competitive America.
We, the undersigned Wharton students, alumni, and faculty, unequivocally reject the use of your education at Wharton as a platform for promoting prejudice and intolerance. Your discriminatory statements are incompatible with the values that we are taught and we teach at Wharton, and we express our unwavering commitment to an open and inclusive American society.

Isn't that what the Constitution allows for?
It's not the amount of Eos that is the problem, it's the overreach. Ever hear of the Constitution. Dear leader can't make law.
Bush JR did 291 times.
What is dividing the country is leaderships policies or lack thereof. Leading by delusional reaction is not leading. Nothing ignorant about it. Just look at the streets alive with protestors.
Just looked.. my street looks fine. Protests happen each day. Media covers what they want.
Look at the state of our military.
Best in the world. So good we use drones to kill terrorists like a video game.
Look at the state of our stagnant economy.
Gas prices are low, Jobs growth at all time high, housing Market highest in 8 years. In fact our dollar is stronger than most countries.
Look at how many people are on food stamps and not even looking for work.
I don't look at how many people are on food stamps or don't want to work. I have my own life to worry about. I pay $36 a year in my taxes to fund the food stamp program. Nine cents a day is what your worried about?
look at the cost of healthcare and the failing exchanges.
Agreed. Have Congress and the Senate vote for fixes instead of killing RomneyCare/Obamacare. Or expand medicare to all Americans.
Look at the state of race relations.
Been the same crap since the 1960's
And Obama is worried about global warming and who is using what bathroom.
Obama has passed and made thousands of statements on the ongoing concerns of the country. Last time I checked it wasn't him that was worried about who was peeing next to .
Yes, ignorance abounds and half the country has their heads up their a**es, Guess which half. The Senate under McConnell has passed more legislation in the last year than Reid did in 4 years of lame leadership. Facts.
That is great news. I didn't know that. 30 of its bills having been signed into law by President Obama. I hope that starts to work in Congress. I don't care who is passing the bills if they are going to solve issues.
A little Common Sense please says:
Do I read between the lines that some Obama worshippers and Obama, are hoping for marshal law to be declared so he can stay in office – maybe?

" Rob almost cried, both said Bears eyes were phenomenal. They were blown away by the accuracy of them.
After the success of the portrait she had created as a surprise wedding gift for her fiancee Tish decided to surprise their friends with gift memorial portraits of their dogs.
The dogs had passed years ago and the photos weren't ideal – not very sharp- but we had a lovely one of them both on the back of a ute. I changed the positions to come up with a stunning portrait and used colour to bring them to life!


Progeny of longtime Dallas restaurateur Charlie Venetis, Charlie's Opa! Grille is a rich cacophony of Greek grub, sprawling the gamut from deliciously tender lamb chops to flaky spanakopita (a savory pie), juicy grilled chicken, gyros that are lean, rich moussaka (Greek lasagna) and saganaki, thick pie sections of lightly breaded Romano cheese that are deep-fried, placed on a hot metal plate, doused with a shot of vodka that hisses and steams, and then set ablaze. The waiter shouts "Opa!," which is Greek for, "What the hell happened to your eyebrows?"


I'm so glad you went!
Oh my gosh, you dear sweet HABs! What wonderful memories this brings up. I'm sitting here bawling my head off! We loved you then and love you still, and you hold a very precious place in our hearts! Gros, gros bisous!
We love you, Susan! And all of yours!
So lovely! Thanks for sharing your joy. What a wonderful reunion and blessing to share that part of you with your family.
