Whenever a top tier chef opens a restaurant in Toronto, the reaction usually reduces grown adults to love-struck teenagers crying about their favourite band. Endless speculation about the food or how the restaurant will look dominates food talk in the city. The first few days after the grand opening sees the restaurant jammed with critics, the curious and chef groupies looking for that next food high. Seven months after Toronto joined the Momofuko noodle bar chain owned and operated by famed American Chef David Chang, I wanted to know if time had been kind or cruel to the restaurant since its debut.
Efficiency seems to be the key word at Momofuko. The décor, the service, it all screams efficient. After we were promptly seated, my dinner companion and I were given instructions and a run down of the menu by extremely knowledgeable and friendly wait staff. Great! Loved that, but didn't love the seats. Momofuko is a communal dining experience which is fine, but the bar seats are like cements blocks so unless your feeling like Mr. or Ms. muscles and want to move the chairs for, I don't know, comfort, then prepare yourself to be pretty much stationery for the meal.
Appetizers began with Chef's famous Korean pork bun. The pork meat was so tender, the sauce made of hoison and hint of Korean chilli with sliced cucumber on a soft bun was beyond fantastic. It was completely worth the hype. Disappointment, however, came with the starter of beef cheeks with sticky rice. The cheeks were deep fried with a coating of kung pao, chilli and Sichuan peanut which tasted fine, but the meat was very dry. The ramen more than made up for the beef. Freshly chopped scallions, marinated shitake mushrooms, seaweed, and ginger added high flavour to the noodles, exactly what you'd expect from ramen. The next dish of Humboldt squid was tough, flavourless and extra chewy, and was not thrilled to be in my mouth. I remember thinking, after receiving the bill at close to 80 dollars for two with alcohol, is that all there is?
Before he opened his restaurant in Toronto, Chef Chang vowed that the restaurant would not be a carbon copy of the original in New York. I wonder if that vow should be broken.

White House Releases Topline Spending Proposal
Apr 13, 2021 | Family Enterprise USA, In The News, Taxes
Thank you to Russ Sullivan and the team at Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck LLP for this report.
The Biden administration released its fiscal year (FY2022) discretionary budget request, also known as the "skinny budget."
The request proposes $769 billion in non-defense discretionary funding, a 16% increase over the FY2021 enacted level, and $753 billion for national defense programs, a 1.7% increase.
Specific policies emphasized in the budget include funding to tackle the climate crisis, advance economic equity, invest in public health and address threats to domestic security.
The topline funding request allows congressional appropriators to begin the months-long appropriations process to fund the federal government—a process that ends on Sept. 30, unless a continuing resolution is passed.
Next, the administration will release more details on its funding request through a comprehensive budget request. While a timeline for this currently remains uncertain, President Biden could provide more details at his first State of the Union Address.
To view the funding request, click here.
The Brownstein Tax Policy Team will release a more robust analysis of today's topline funding request in the coming days.

Hi I'm Lou, I have been a member of The Clubhouse for over a year, and have been running since June 2014. I live in Twickenham which is on the edge of London and I juggle running alongside my job working backstage in the theatre business, touring the country. I am also one of the lucky ladies who have a place at the Virgin London Marathon through Too Fat To Run and the Ron Pickering Foundation.
As someone training for the London marathon, the timing of the Milton Keynes festival of running fitted well with my training programme, a week or two ahead of when I would have liked to do 20 miles, but hay better to do it for a medal, that to try and motivated myself to stay out that long with no shiny reward.
I left my house at 7am, full of dread, to make my way to the MK. The event itself consisted of 4 different distances 5km, 10km, half and 20 miles. I myself was wishing id signed up to the half instead, the dread that I for mentioned, was relating to the strict cut of time that I hadn't noticed till I was reading the event info the night before. The race was starting at 9:45am and you had to be finished by 2pm giving you just over 4 hours to get around on an average pace of 12:30minute miles. I'd had a rubbish run the weekend before and my training has been more laxed than I would hope so it was feeling the pressure from the get go, I'm pretty sure I wasn't alone in my worry.
There was no real 'start' now by this I mean of course there was a start line, but there was no music, I don't even recall an arch way to run under, however the signage for where each distance of race should start was very clear. There was a bag drop area with some other tents/info station that I didn't use, as we had been advised as most people would have driven to the event to leave stuff in our cars. There were ample toilets and changing space as the start and finish were outside the Escape centre, with all of the pre/post food and coffee you could have wanted.
Bibs were sorted by colour, my colour being in the 20mile race was black, we were told that when out running we would see mile markers that coincided with our bibs… I spent ages looking for mile markers on black background only to realise at mile 3 the 20 miles signs were actually pink, when I ran past the 3, 10 & 17 all at the same time, didn't I feel silly, many my nerve made me mishear the initial instructions.
The course was nice enough, however very undulating and with a killer hill which seemed to last for the whole of mile 19. As a 20miler runner you had to do two laps of a segments of the course which was about 7 miles long, so at least on lap two you knew what was coming. However, with that brought the fact that you knew that there was going to be little support out there. There was one cheer station at mile 10 belonging to the local running club (Thank you Redway Runners) The water stations were a pick me up as you had your name on your bib, the ladies at mile 15 were a god sent shouting my name, but past that there was nothing. A few small clumps of spectators now and then (mine included who had worked out their route so I saw them at 4, 6, 11, 13, 17 and the finish – by god did they keep me motivated) Some of the marshalling points were very lonely so thank you to everyone who was out there making sure we all got around safely. I haven't run with headphones/ personal music at all for about the last two year's but I felt I needed it to get me round so I was glad I decided to take them with me.
The finish line did have an archway and a man calling out the names of who was finishing and which event they had completed, the guys heading out medals had different ones depending on your distance and as you crossed the finish you could have water and a banana to take with you.
As an opportunity for training this was great, cause the going got very tough out there and I managed to finish within the cut off despite struggling with the conditions.
Would I run here again? The 20 miles probably not, one of the shorter distances I'd consider. Don't get me wrong, it was brilliantly executed, but maybe because it was a smaller scale event it missed some things I have become accustomed too with the larger races. 939 people ran the 20miles and I came in 875 in a time of 03:54:38.
Good effort Lou, I know how tough these smaller races can be for your confidence. There really is nowhere to hide, and a lot of the atmosphere which gets you round the big races simply isn't there to spur you on. Great that you have that mileage in your legs now…you can relax (well kind of) and enjoy your taper. I still have big ig runs to come. See you at the startline.

The Academy vows to double its minority, female membership by 2020 in response to #OscarsSoWhite controversy
By Nancy Dillon
Jan 22, 2016 | 4:28 PM
Amid deafening calls for more diversity, the Academy pledged "historic" reforms Friday.
The Oscars organization issued a statement promising to double its number of female and minority members by 2020.
It also will add three new seats to its 51-member board of governors to "immediately increase diversity" at the highest level, the statement said.
#OSCARSSOWHITE CONTROVERSY: WHICH CAMP ARE YOU IN?
In possibly the most sweeping change, the group said new members' voting status is guaranteed only for 10 years and then will be renewed only if the new member remains active in the industry.

Members can still score lifetime voting rights, but only once they qualify for three 10-year terms or if they're nominated for an award.
Voting membership previously was automatically granted for life.
The changes came after a firestorm of criticism following the latest crop of Oscar nominees announced last week.
All 20 men and women nominated for best acting awards were white for the second year in a row.

Mexican director Alejandro G. Iñárritu was the only non-white nominee for best director and all the directors nominated were men.
Critically acclaimed films featuring black protagonists such as "Straight Outta Compton," "Concussion," "Creed" and "Beasts Of No Nation" were shut out of the best film category.
WILL SMITH CONFIRMS HE WON'T ATTEND OSCARS
This year's glaring lack of diversity led "Malcolm X" director Spike Lee and "Ali" actress Jada Pinkett Smith to state publicly they would not attend the ceremony on Feb. 28.

The Academy said its board of governors unanimously approved the new reforms late Thursday.
"The Academy is going to lead and not wait for the industry to catch up," Academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs said in the statement.
"These new measures regarding governance and voting will have an immediate impact and begin the process of significantly changing our membership composition," she said.
The Academy further promised a "global campaign to identify and recruit qualified new members who represent greater diversity."

Last week, Boone, who is African-American, admitted she was frustrated by the all-white acting slate.
"Of course I am disappointed, but this is not to take away the greatness (of the nominees)," she told Deadline.com.
The Academy does not issue a membership list or disclose demographic information about its ranks. But the Los Angeles Times confirmed the identities of 89% of Academy members in 2012 and found that 94% were Caucasian and 77% were male.
Only about 2% of the Academy was black, while Latinos composed less than 2%.
Oscar voters had a median age of 62, the study found.
People younger than 50 constituted only about 14% of the membership, The Times reported.

Despite it being 2018, the subject of best practices when it comes to anchor text remains a challenge for SEO practitioners and site owners. Work with an inexperienced agency and you'll probably find yourself in a situation where you've got a lot of low-quality inbound links with lots of over-optimised anchor text links that are stuffed with the very keywords you're targeting in your marketing plan.
Unfortunately, there's an opacity surrounding precisely what type of anchor text links to acquire and when and how to manage existing inbound anchor text links to your website.
The anchor text report from the excellent aHrefs toolkit.
I'll seek to clarify as best I can, though in summary, "linking naturally" is probably the best way to describe it.
In short, you can hurt your rankings by using inbound links that match the target keywords of the page.
Don't think that the practices of decades ago will work today. They don't. If you have too many keyword stuffed external links, you'll need to undo that work by "realigning" the links to something less targeted. It's best to use branded links (inbound links with your company name) as a safe fallback. If you just did that every time, you probably wouldn't need to read the rest of this article!
What are anchor text links best practices?
Try to avoid acquiring "exact match" anchors.
If your site is underperforming, remove low quality links.
Manage existing anchors by converting exact match to branded terms.
Try to limit or remove external, sitewide links.
Exact match anchor text is a one way ticket to a link penalty. In our data, we see the amount of exact match anchor texts drastically reduced (sometimes to nil) on higher ranking websites.
If your site is underperforming, or if you have suffered a penalty, remove or disavow the low-quality links.
If you're suffering a negative SEO attack to a particular URL (or small number of URLs) it might be best to move that content to a new URL and use robots.txt to exclude the URLs that are the focus of the inbound links. In some circumstances, this is the more efficient route to managing lots of bad inbound links as you don't need to constantly update your disavow file!
This has been the staple link profile management advice for years now. If you have many inbound links using an exact match anchor from low-quality sites you are almost certainly going to suffer a performance issue until it's resolved.
In short, remove poor quality links altogether, and "detune" the remaining exact match anchor texts to something that I would classify as a partial match or branded link. If in doubt, remove the link.
If you're not experienced with creating link audits, get in touch with us or use a tool like Kerboo which in my opinion is the best link auditing tool available. It has a reliable quality score metric and consolidates data from aHrefs, Majestic, Moz and Search Console.
Some SEO teams monitor and remove links on a near real-time basis. Anything new that comes in with an overly optimised anchor gets a removal or realignment request sent pretty quickly.
Most of us are in much less competitive verticals but it just shows what could be required. Sort your inbound links by anchor text in a tool like aHrefs and contact sites to remove or realign the anchor text to something less overly optimised.
Sitewide links are just a no. every link tool can identify a sitewide link. You just need to sort by the number of pages linking, rather than referring domain. Work to remove them, especially when they use competitive, exact match anchor text.
What anchor text tool should I use?
For deep dive analysis, I'd choose aHrefs. The data is updated often and quickly and is very complete. If you're building a very deep scale report you should include data from Search Console and Majestic, and then deduplicate before checking which URLs are still live. This is something that Kerboo does very well, so it may be that you choose to go down that route.
Interesting you claim that about exact match anchors when numerous wordpress plugings that create indexes at the top of articles create exact match by using the headings or each H2 tag for example.. Yet my sites have all improved in SEO.. So whatever!
This article is emphasising the need for caution with *external* anchor text. I have no issue, particularly with internal links, but there is a point where too many will hurt you in the end.

My name is Artur, I was born on January 10, 1983 in Szczecin (Poland), where I grew up, learned and developed my great automotive passion. When I was a little boy, living in an old skyscraper in my city, I had a poster hanging on my wall with a photo of the Mercedes SL 500, which I gazed at in the evening, dreaming of such a day in my life when I would drive it. I dreamed a lot, I created sceneries and cars in my mind, which I traveled all over the world. I could spend hours sitting on a bench and staring at a sports car or motorbike. It was late 90's when I first time met personally with the Premium Class cars and it was immediately by large P. My friend's dad took us on a ride with Mercedes S600 (model W140). In those days "sixhundred" was an absolute on top, and I already knew for 100% that luxury cars will become an inseparable element with which I will be bound to the end of my life. I started to meet people and penetrate the world of car and motorcycle enthusiasts. I started my adventure behind the wheel of Premium Class cars in 2002 with BMW 530d (E39) and this story continues to this day.., only cars and motorbikes change.
Dear ReadersI am not an automotive journalist or a rally driver, but my strongest arguments are years behind the wheel and experience. I was driving many good, expensive and strong cars, as a driver I have made many thousands of kilometers at any time of the year and in all weather conditions, with front wheel drive, rear wheel drive and four wheel drive. In one word the planet earth was circle by me few times behind the wheel of cars worth a millions of euros.
I created my website to share with you the impressions of driving luxury cars and motorcycles. I do not want to paste empty descriptions of technical data, there are catalogs to check information about it. I will not use cars or motorcycles on the racetrack or subject them to extreme conditions of use. I want to describe these machines in a simple language, in a reliable and understandable way for a reader who is not an expert in motorization. I will present vehicles as they are in ordinary everyday use, from the point of view of the average driver who looks at the car or motorcycle, gets in, starts the engine and sets off on the road.

Virtual Reality Gaming: View the Future in First Person

Since the moment video games first hit the marketplace, virtual reality gaming has been the dream of every hardcore gamer.
Arguably the desire to escape into made-up worlds goes back thousands of years, to the time humans first gathered around campfires and told each other stories.
Virtual reality has appeared many times in pop fiction. Remember the Holodeck from Star Trek or the training room in X-Men?
Now with modern advances in virtual reality, these fantasies are becoming less and less fiction, and it's all thanks to virtual reality gaming.
What exactly is it though?

Simply put, virtual reality gaming allows a player to completely submerge themselves in a 3D environment. By wearing a headset with a screen in each eye, we shut ourselves off to our world and trick our brains into thinking we've entered a new one.
The goal of virtual reality gaming is to give the user as much immersion as possible.
Rotating chairs make the player feel as if they really are driving a race car or piloting a spaceship. Trackpads and omnidirectional treadmills let the user move around a 3D world by walking in place.
There are even gloves and suits that incorporate the sense of touch through vibrations. Imagine feeling the direction a nearby explosion came from in your left shoulder.
The term virtual reality was first coined in 1987. Primitive VR technologies had existed for many years before this, but it was only in the 1990s that they were finally used for gaming.
In the early 1990s, a company called Virtuality started producing the first virtual reality gaming machines. They were far too expensive for household use, but did manage to make their way into arcades.
For the first time, arcade goers could wear a low-resolution headset that allowed them to look around a 3D environment. They could sit in a cockpit with a wheel and feel like they were driving, or stand on an elevated platform and run around with a joystick shooting their friends.
Considering the first home consoles with any kind of 3D graphics did not appear until a few years later, this technology was awe-inspiring.
In the mid-90s both Sega and Nintendo attempted to bring virtual reality gaming into the household with affordable VR headsets. Unfortunately for Sega, they never succeeded in launching their product.
Nintendo's Virtual Boy did not do much better. To cut down on production costs, they opted to use red LED lights instead of full-color screens. This meant that every game had to be played entirely in black and red.
Unsurprisingly, people were disappointed by this take on virtual reality. The small library of games was unengaging, and the ominous red lighting made people nocuous. Within less than a year the Nintendo Virtual Boy disappeared from store shelves.
While Virtuality style arcade machines were still developed, the technology remained stagnant for the next two decades.
Although new games were released periodically, they were generally forgettable and lacked innovation. People were more interested in high-end computers and gaming consoles.
Fast forward to 2019 and virtual reality gaming is finally starting to make a comeback. With vastly improved graphics, better motion tracking, and a greater arsenal of accessories, VR is poised to take over the gaming industry.
Thanks to the internet making everything a whole lot easier, the development of VR is no longer limited to large companies. Small groups of individuals can get their projects funded through donations on websites like Kickstarter.
The competition for creating the best products is fierce, and that's good news for gamers.
As we mentioned, virtual reality gaming is all about creating the most immersive environment possible. Modern VR achieves this through its headsets, motion-sensitive controllers, and optional accessories.
At the core of virtual reality gaming are the headsets, which work by projecting identical images into each eye. The brain puts these images together and believes that they are one consistent image.
This is called stereoscopic imagery, and it's precisely the way your brain processes the real world. Each eye sees what it sees, and your mind fills in the blanks.
Another element of headsets is head tracking. The headsets use a combination of sophisticated technology to track where you position your head in relation to where it started. In this way, it knows which direction you're looking.
Most games will require you to use at least one controller. Often you will need a controller for each hand.
Controllers contain motion tracking technology similar to smartphones and gaming controllers. Use them for aiming your cursor, moving your hands, swinging swords, and so on. This adds to the sense of immersion because your hands are entirely independent of your head movement.
For those of us without trackpads or treadmills, the controllers are also used to move around the game world with a joystick.
Finally, the controller has buttons necessary for performing certain actions.
There are a massive amount of accessories to choose from. We've already mentioned a few of them. Let's look at them in more detail. Keep in mind that some of these are very expensive.
Trackpads are designed to let the user walk in place, rather than using a joystick to move around. Think of it as a giant laptop mouse for your feet. Some of them even have a ring that straps around your waist so it can tell if you are crouching or jumping.
Omnidirectional treadmills are a new version of trackpads that offer more grip and higher resistance. Therefore, they have the potential to be more immersive. Just as the name implies, they are circular treadmills that can move in any horizontal direction.
Rotating chairs are as they sound. But while some may only turn horizontally, others suspend the user in mid-air and will rotate in any direction. Some are more of a ball than a chair and require the user to turn themselves by moving their feet along the floor.
As we mentioned, gloves and suits can be used to add the sense of touch to your game with vibrations. But gloves serve the dual purpose of tracking your hands so that you can see them in-game.
Up until now, this technology has been mostly a gimmick. However, time is coming when players will be able to seamlessly pick up and place virtual objects within the game world. This will also be great for playing virtual instruments!
The potential for future VR technologies is nearly endless. Controllers shaped like weapons; Gloves that apply heat when you touch something hot in-game; Large warehouses specifically for player versus player combat; 8k resolution headsets. These are just a few innovations coming our way.
Imagine when MMORPGs like World of Warcraft are playable in VR. Will you ever want to leave your house?
All you need to start gaming today is a headset and a device to use them. Although some headsets do not require an external device, such as the Oculus Go.
Which products you choose will depend on the games you want to play and how much you're willing to spend.
If you own a PlayStation 4, no doubt you've heard of PlayStation VR. It offers easy setup and a decent ever-expanding library of games.
Maybe you're more of a PC gamer, in which case you will want to investigate SteamVR. Keep in mind that you will need a reasonably powerful gaming PC. But there are a large variety of headsets to choose from
On the cheaper end of the spectrum is Samsung Gear VR, which allows you to turn your Samsung Galaxy phone into a VR headset.
We'll leave you to decide which headset is right for you.
Perhaps the most significant drawback of VR gaming right now is a limited library of games. The list of high-quality games is even smaller. This is quickly changing, however.
2019 is the year that virtual reality gaming will finally take off. Already more than 30 new games have been announced, each of them featuring beautiful worlds and surprisingly unique game mechanics.
Meanwhile, there are still several games on the market worth your time. Here are just a few of the most popular games available.
Bethesda is well known for its roleplaying games with vast and beautiful 3D worlds, countless missions and compelling characters. They also feature a high degree of character customization, which adds a lot to the replayability.
In The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR, move around the medieval fantasy region of Skyrim using a controller, trackpad, or treadmill. Gaze in any direction by moving your head. With a controller in each hand, swing your sword, raise your shield to block, aim your bow and cast spells.
Fallout 4 s also available for virtual reality gaming, but only on the PC. Gameplay mechanics are very similar to Skyrim, but with a post-apocalyptic wasteland setting with guns. The game also has unique features, such as the ability to build your own towns and defend them from raiders.
These two games alone contain hundreds of hours of gameplay.
Beat Saber is one of my personal favorites and is available on the PlayStation and Steam stores. Remember Guitar Hero and Rockband? Well replace instruments with motion-controlled lightsabers, add a virtual 3D environment, and you have Beat Saber.
Hold a controller in each hand and see how the lightsabers move with them. Swing your sabers to the beat of the music and slice through blocks as they fly at you.
There's a catch though; you can only hit blocks with the lightsaber of the same color. Certain blocks will have arrows on them indicating the direction you must slice them in.
Sometimes you will have to move your entire body to dodge incoming walls of energy. All these elements combine to get you dancing around like a ninja!
Beat Saber comes with a built-in library of songs, but you can also add your own or download ones that people have made from the Steam Workshop.
Yes, it's true. Minecraft is now available in virtual reality.
Features include huge randomly generated worlds made from blocks, and the ability to collect those blocks using tools. Use the resources you've gathered to craft items and build up structures like Legos.
As with any first-person VR game, move through the world using a controller or any of the available accessories. Look around by tilting your head in any direction.
Minecraft does not support attacking with your sword through hand movement, so you will have to press a button for this. Of course, nothing is preventing you from swinging your arms around anyway if it makes you feel good.
In survival mode, you'll explore dark and dangerous caverns, wander through forests and stroll across grasslands and deserts in search of resources to build your home.
In creative mode, you can fly around building whatever you'd like without the need to gather resources.
A major plus for Minecraft VR is that it's also available in the Pocket Edition on Samsung VR.
You should now have a basic overview of everything you need to know about virtual reality gaming. All that's left is for you to get out there and make a decision about what to buy.
The number of choices can be intimidating, but luckily YouTube has plenty of product reviews and gameplay videos to browse.
Remember new headsets are likely to come out every year, so don't feel like you have to go for the best of the best. Whatever you choose will bring you a brand new experience, and many hours of enjoyment.
Here's a video to get you started.

Virtual reality is most commonly used in entertainment applications such as video gaming and 3D cinema. Consumer virtual reality headsets were first released by video game companies in the early-mid 19. Beginning in the 20, next-generation commercial tethered headsets were released by Oculus (Rift), HTC (Vive) and Sony (PlayStation VR), setting off a new wave of application development.

Hot List: Day 30 of the Legislature
By Olivia Messer
The Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas was the major topic at the Capitol yesterday. Two Senate committees heard testimony about the agency better known as CPRIT, which has recently been under scrutiny for mismanagement of public funds. State Auditor John Keel testified that the institute has made egregious financial and ethical mistakes, and Sen. Wendy Davis (D-Fort Worth) discussed a plan to reform the troubled CPRIT at a press conference.
Yesterday's Headlines
1. Climate change was discussed at the Capitol yesterday during a joint hearing of the House and Senate natural resources committees to examine Texas' water woes and ongoing drought, as the Observer's Forrest Wilder reports.
2. According to Quorum Report, CPRIT's Interim Executive Director Wayne Roberts promised that reforms—based on Davis', Keffer's, and Nelson's complaints—would be adopted and implemented. (subscription required)
Line of the Day
"I disagree with today's school finance ruling by the district court in Austin, but I expect an immediate appeal to the Texas Supreme Court…Together we will ensure that Texas continues to have an accountable, efficient system of public education that produces graduates ready to compete in college and in our global economy." – Lt. Gov. Dewhurst said in a press release.
What We're Watching Today
1. Governor Rick Perry will speak at 9:15 a.m. at the Alliance for I-69 Texas Legislative Briefing.
2. Rep. Lois Kolkhorst (R-Brenham), chair of the House Committee on Public Health, and Texas Public Health Coalition will have a discussion on legislative public health priorities today at 11:45 a.m. at the Texas Medical Association.

"Back in the olde days, if a band took two years between releases they were considered to be "on sabbatical." Nowadays, if a band puts out an album faster than every two years, we wonder why they're rushing things. An album a year used to be the rule, and that's a rule that Cracked Machine seem to be adhering to early in their career. The Call of the Void comes hot on the heels of the Wiltshire quartet's 2018 debut, I, Cosmonaut. Maybe it's easier to write post-rock songs with psychedelic overtones, or maybe these fellows just have a lot of ideas swimming around in their heads." Grinders.

General Hospital (GH) spoilers tease that Vanessa Marcil (ex-Brenda Barrett) could be returning to the soap world. A recent Instagram post has fans buzzing about the possibility of a soapy comeback. Marcil is set to reveal some exciting news soon, but she's staying tight-lipped about the details for now.
Maurice Benard (Sonny) wished Marcil a happy birthday over the weekend and said "see you soon." It's possible that he meant he'd see her on set, but it's equally possible they just made plans to hang out. Benard and Marcil seem to be pretty close friends, so that also makes sense.
If General Hospital isn't interested in bringing back Brenda, there's surely a place for Marcil on another daytime drama. Marcil had a guest co-hosting stint on The Talk not too long ago. Since it's part of the CBS daytime family, perhaps some execs noticed fan interest in her gig.
The Young and the Restless could be an option for Marcil, but we'd say The Bold and the Beautiful might be the best fit. Marcil's style seems like it would work well on B&B. Plus, there would be plenty of love triangles for Marcil's character to get involved in. The show has to make sure they have enough love interests for those!
Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) just dumped Bill (Don Diamont), so maybe Marcil could emerge his new leading lady. It'd be nice to have a fresh face on The Bold and the Beautiful. The show likes to shake things up with different characters from time to time, so here's their big chance!
Since Marcil's Instagram post featured an old-school photo, that might mean she's returning to her soapy roots. A Bold and the Beautiful announcement would be great news for fans who've been missing her. General Hospital spoilers hint that things will be busy in Port Charles over the next few months anyway. Marcil might get more airtime on B&B.
Would you like to see Vanessa Marcil on a new soap? Do you think she'll announce that she's headed to Bold and the Beautiful? Could you see Marcil getting involved in some hot B&B plots? We'll give you updates as other details emerge. Stay tuned to ABC's GH and don't forget to check CDL often for the latest General Hospital spoilers, updates and news.

North Fairfield
Hillary not first woman to run for president
By Norwalk Reflector Staff • Jul 22, 2016 at 11:00 AM
NORTH FAIRFIELD — Did you know that before the current female presidential candidate there was another one? One-hundred-forty-four years ago. She was from Homer, Ohio, a tiny village (current population 1,400) in Licking County.
The life of Victoria Woodhull and the causes she championed will be explored by Judith Dann in this very timely program. Living in Homer, Judith became interested in the life of this important historical figure. Victoria Woodhull was a pioneer for women's rights and suffrage as well as being a champion for the rights of children and laborers. She is most noted for being the first woman to run for the office of president of the United States in 1872 against Ulysses S. Grant. She was reviled by some and praised by many.
Dr. Judith Dann is a professor of Ancient History at Columbus State Community College. She teaches ancient Greek and Roman history as well as Classical Mythology. She is married to Mark, a South Central High School graduate and son of North Fairfield resident Betty McFarlin Dann.
The program is sponsored by North Fairfield Historical Association. It will take place at 7 p.m. Thursday at the North Fairfield United Methodist Church. The church is air conditioned and handicap-accessible. There is no admission fee, but donations are welcome. Refreshments and an opportunity to chat with Dann will follow the program. For other information, contact Ruth Earl 419-668-4006 or [email protected]

"How could I let a love go - one I'd been holding onto for so long - one that felt like home? It's not easy to let go of the pieces, even though they're the reason for my pain. I gripped them so hard that my blood fell like rain. But nothing, nothing could have prepared me for a new life with you - one I didn't deserve, one I want to pursue."
I love this song, it's like this song brings you soul to the highest. It makes you realize what true love is. I think this is one of justin bieber's best song ever exept for a couple of other ones. So *true love. It means that if you really love someone, you would do any thing for them. But. You gotta pick the right person. So that's what this song means to me. What true *love is.
This song says about love and that it feels an angel came and took you to heaven when ur in it. (in love) this song is one of my favorite songs.

Thanks for correcting Justin Bieber - Never Let You Go lyrics!


Ever since he was first elected in 2010, Colorado Treasurer Walker Stapleton's political career has benefited from the "Great Colorado Payback"—a program that's supposed to reunite Coloradans with lost and forgotten assets. As part of the program, Stapleton gets hundreds of thousands of dollars in free advertising.
In April 2017, 9NEWS reported: "The Treasurer's Office gave 9NEWS an invoice showing how much it spent running the ad on television and in print on different TV stations and newspapers. The total was about $192,000 in 2017. That's similar to the amount spent in previous years. In 2014, the Treasurer's Office spent about $191,000 to run the ad." That's almost $200,000 per year in free advertising.
Stapleton's management of the Great Colorado Payback has been a disaster.
DENVER — A woman who received a check Wednesday from the Great Colorado Payback said she's frustrated with how long it took to process her claims and receive her money.
"It's still my money and I am entitled to that and I don't feel like myself or anyone else should get the runaround or fight to get answers," said [Kellie] Harper.
And in August of 2018, the Denver Post reported that the problem still wasn't fixed.
If Walker Stapleton can't do his job as Treasurer, what kind of Governor would he be?

Data Center Case Studies
CoreSpace Dallas Data Center gets power boost
Opportunities always present challenges, especially in the competitive data center industry. CoreSpace, a growing hosting company, seized an opportunity to expand its data center presence with the acquisition of an existing 30,000-sq-ft data center in the Dallas area. With more than 20 years experience in the data center industry, the CoreSpace team knew that the facility's open footprint, mechanicals, infrastructure and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems were all solid.
Yet they understood that the original distributed energy management and power backup architecture protecting the facilities' servers needed to be on their list of upgrades to bring their data center up to their stringent service level agreement (SLA) standards for uptime, quality, and reliability they deliver for their customers.
The data center acquired by CoreSpace was originally provisioned with two hundred thirty 42U ( a"U" is a height measurement for server racks. 1U = 1.75 in.) (i.e., 73.5-in. high ) server racks. Each rack was powered by its own individual, or distributed, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) that provided a single-phase "standby" or "line-interactive" topography. While these UPSs provided some backup power to servers during a complete power interruption, they delivered little or no filtering to ensure power quality, and offered no monitoring capability to keep an eye on these critical systems.
While backup power was a key concern, power quality proved to be equally important. Even a minor voltage spike for a fraction of a second can force a server to shutdown, taking precious minutes to reboot. If an entire rack of servers is impacted, it might take up to 30 minutes or more to bring the system online, cutting into uptime, affecting service, and costing the company time and productivity for information technology (IT) staff resources. These hard shutdowns also can cause corruption of data on mission-critical servers. For a company committed to delivering 24/7 continuous uptime, the quality and reliability of power was a cornerstone to their service delivery equation.
The distributed UPS protection approach also raised the facility's overall energy consumption and costs. The rack-based distributed single-phase UPSs in total used more than 100 kilowatt amperes (kWA) of power, with additional cooling costs required to manage the more than 345,000 Btu produced by the 230 single-phase UPS units.
The Move To Centralized Power Protection And Energy Efficiency
CoreSpace's management knew that a centralized power management architecture, using a three-phase UPS system, would move their facility to a new level of uptime and enable them to improve SLAs for uptime, quality, and reliability, while generating significant energy cost savings. They evaluated a number of providers, but decided on GE's Critical Power business to supply the GE SG Series 500 kilovolt ampere (kVA) UPS units running in GE's eBoost™ energy efficiency mode.
"Centralized UPSs tend to look and act similar, but it really came down to two major criteria: reliability and efficiency. The clear leader was GE's UPS system with eBoost," said Mark Wulff, vice president, operations at CoreSpace.
The deployed GE UPS system operates with GE's eBoost energy efficiency technology. GE's eBoost provides up to 99% energy efficiency in alternating-current-to-direct-current (AC-to-DC) power conversion over conventional double conversion UPS technology. These efficiency levels, which offer dramatic cost savings, are created by reducing the number of AC-to-DC conversion steps from four (i.e., double conversion) to two (i.e., eBoost mode), while providing the same power conditioning protection. When there is a power anomaly, eBoost's rapid transfer speed of less than 2 milliseconds (ms) transfers the power input back to double conversion mode for a short period, ensuring full power protection and reliability.
This centralized power management approach using three-phase power protection and conditioning, vs. powering and managing individual single-phase UPS units, also improves the overall reliability and quality of the power to the servers. This improved power quality translates to increased uptime, better customer service, and reduced maintenance and IT response to downed servers.
During this shift to a centralized power management system, CoreSpace also added a Cummins diesel-fueled generator, which provides 1,500 kVA of extended power backup. Additionally, GE ZTS automatic transfer switches provide seamless switching between the UPS and external power generation systems.
Results: Energy Savings + Power Reliability
Since the transition from hundreds of decentralized single-phase UPS units to a new centralized energy management and power backup infrastructure, powered by GE's three-phase UPS system, CoreSpace is realizing an energy efficiency level of 92%. That translates to $64,000 a year in energy savings alone, coupled with an additional $24,800 annual savings by running the UPS system at 99% efficiency in eBoost mode. CoreSpace also realizes additional energy savings from reduced cooling costs, as the facility's total UPS Btu output has dropped from 345,000 Btu to just 14,000 Btu.
By boosting uptime, providing better competitive SLA guarantees, and achieving power uptime improvements, CoreSpace is delivering on their promises to their customers.

I'll have to be on my game for Dundrod glory: Elkin
Light work: Ultra Lightweight riders Melissa Kennedy, Gary Dunlop and Christian Elkin with David and Gillian Hanna of DGH Recovery Services and UGP Clerk of the Course, Noel Johnston on the Ulster Grand Prix's Dundrod circuit
By Roy Harris
Last year's Ultra Lightweight Moto3 race winner at Dundrod, Christian Elkin, returns to the 2019 fonaCAB Ulster Grand Prix as one of the favourites in both of this year's Moto3/125GP races.
https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sport/motorcycling/ill-have-to-be-on-my-game-for-dundrod-glory-elkin-38293846.html
https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/incoming/article38294873.ece/cca20/AUTOCROP/h342/A77J6692.jpg
Elkin, originally from Macclesfield but now living just outside Randalstown, is a former double British 125cc champion in 2004 and 2005 and has won four times around the 7.4 mile Dundrod Circuit in Moto3.
The 38-year-old rides the Bob Wylie M3 Honda in the class, his own Dynocentre ER6 Kawasaki in Supertwins and the Wylie ZXR6RR Kawasaki in Supersport.
"The bikes are all good and I definitely want to be chasing a podium in every race and a win if it's on," said Elkin.
"It will be a hard task against the opposition that is out there and you need a bit of luck to go your way as well."
The main contenders Elkin believes he has to beat are Derek McGee, who rides an ultra-fast ex-Grand Prix Honda for the Italian Faraldo Racing Team, last year's podium finisher Michal Dokoupil and Gary Dunlop, a recent winner at Kells, Enniskillen and Skerries.
Elkin joked: "A lot will depend on the conditions and you need to have a few little tricks up your sleeve to finish in front of those boys around Dundrod."
Dunlop will hope to find a few tricks of his own as he chases a lifetime ambition of winning a race at the Ulster.
"I love Dundrod and to get a race win there would be a dream come true," said the 36-year-old.
He will ride the Joey's Bar MCC M3 machine and added: "I'll give it a good go, and if I could manage to pull off a win I would probably quit and just put my feet up!"
Dunlop also feels his former team-mate McGee will pose the greatest threat.
"To be honest, the only chance any of us have is if Derek isn't there on the Faraldo machine. Christian is also a great rider, who doesn't always get the recognition he deserves."
Although he was talking his rivals up, the Ballymoney man, whose best Dundrod finish is a fourth in 2017, admits he is up for this year's race.
"I will give it a good go," Dunlop said as he chases his first international success after National wins at Kells, Enniskillen and Skerries already this season.
"I was up for it last year and was running with Christian and Paul Robinson before the engine give up at the end of the first lap. If the weather is good I will definitely have a go."
Fermanagh's Melissa Kennedy made her road racing debut in the class at the Ulster in 2013 and the 28-year old will ride a KNR backed NSR 250 Honda.
"A top five finish is my realistic dream. Dundrod is a very fast, tough track, and there will be a lot of very good riders and machines out there," she said.

A crise no Equador de 2010 foi deflagrada em 30 de setembro de 2010, a partir de um movimento de protesto dos policiais do Equador contra uma lei que reduz os gastos com a segurança pública, retirando parte de seus vencimentos. Os rebeldes invadiram o Congresso, ocuparam o  Aeroporto Internacional de Quito, obrigando as autoridades de aviação civil a suspenderem as operações, e tomaram o controle dos principais quartéis da polícia. O movimento se espalhou por Guayaquil e Cuenca e houve confrontos entre tropas leais ao governo e os rebelados.

O presidente Rafael Correa denunciou o movimento como uma tentativa de golpe de Estado. Entretanto, membros da oposição consideram que o governo teria agido de forma prepotente ao promover a nova legislação sobre o funcionalismo público, motivando assim a revolta popular. O presidente enfrenta oposição até mesmo dos parlamentares de seu próprio partido por conta dessas medidas e manifestou a intenção de dissolver o Congresso para aprová-las, o que é previsto pela legislação, mas requer aprovação do tribunal constitucional do país.

O presidente declarou temer por sua vida, anunciando também que o Equador se encontra em estado de exceção. Em discurso no quartel-general do Exército, transmitido pela Rádio Pública do Equador, disse que se sentia sequestrado e contou que, em Quito, os manifestantes dispararam bombas de gás lacrimogêneo em sua direção, após o que ele foi  hospitalizado e permaneceu sitiado durante dez horas, dentro do hospital.

Governistas e a própria oposição defendem a dissolução do Parlamento e a convocação de eleições antecipadas. Lucio Gutiérrez, que governou o país entre janeiro de 2003 e abril de 2005, quando foi derrubado por manifestações populares, declarou que Correa é o único responsável pela instabilidade política no Equador. O governo brasileiro acompanha de perto a crise e pede a manutenção das instituições democráticas. Líderes da Unasul tiveram uma reunião de emergência, em Buenos Aires, e condenaram "a tentativa de golpe de estado".

A Organização dos Estados Americanos também se reuniu emergencialmente para "repudiar qualquer tentativa de alterar a institucionalidade democrática no Equador e fazer um enérgico chamado à polícia do país e aos setores políticos para que se evite qualquer ato de violência que possa gerar uma situação de instabilidade política". Em 5 de outubro, o estado de exceção foi prorrogado e o Exército ocupou a Assembleia Nacional. O presidente da Venezuela, Hugo Chávez, acusou Barack Obama de envolvimento com a rebelião, fato logo desmentido pelo governo equatoriano.

Apesar da crise, o presidente Rafael Correa conta com o apoio de 75 por cento da população. O oposicionista Fidel Araujo, membro do Partido Sociedade Patriótica (PSP), foi preso e acusado de estar ligado ao protesto dos policiais diante do hospital onde Correa foi internado. O presidente teve que ser resgatado por militares fiéis ao governo, que entraram em tiroteio com os revoltosos. Isso foi considerado tentativa de assassinato pela Procuradoria-Geral do país.

Em 11 de outubro, o comandante geral da polícia do Equador, Patricio Franco, pediu desculpas pelo comportamento dos policiais revoltosos e anunciou a reorganização da instituição. Mesmo assim, o país ficará em estado de emergência por tempo indeterminado. Analistas advertem que a crise está longe do fim e que o presidente saiu enfraquecido não só por causa da crise entre as instituições do país como também pela falta de apoio das Forças Armadas. Entretanto, eles divergem sobre a caracterização do fato como golpe de Estado.

Well today I went to the local pull a part here in Greensboro looking for the parts to fix my Galant. After getting what I needed, I come across a Hyundai XG350(Sorry V6 guys the engine was gone) and looked inside at the interior. The first thing I noticed were the chrome door handles which are shaped almost like the Galant's. So I took one the door handles and took it back to the Galant in the yard and what do you know they fit. With some minor modification of course, the black shroud that fits over the door handle also fits. So all you guys looking for chrome door handles check out the XG300/350's.
I'm about 100% sure the bottom part of the rear seats fit inside the Galant's. Now the upper part I couldn't get off, not sure if I was missing a bolt/nut/screw but I couldn't get the two outer most parts out. If it wasn't for the rat feces piled in the trunk I would have spent more time trying to get them off. But they looked as if they could fit. I think the front seats will also fit but I couldn't get them off because they were electric. I couldn't move the seats back far enough to get to the bolts. The XG350 interior is black leather and the interior at the pull a part was in great condition. They just need some cleaning.
To my surprise the rear door panels will fit the Galant's with some trimming along the rear edge of the panel and using the plastic brackets that held it in place in the XG350. But you will have move the door handle down and use the XG350 connecting rods. Basically with mis match Galant and XG300 parts you can get the rear door panels to work. The front panels are a bit different, the XG350 speakers will get in the way of the Galant's dash.
I also took the electronic climate from the car just for the hell of it, so I can play around with it. It looks likes the Diamante's so it may work. I'm going back Saturday with a camera so I can show you guys. I'll post pics of the chrome door handles and climate control to tonight.
You are here entirely tooo much!!
never pull out, always squeeze inside! LOL!
NICE. by the look of it. they do fit.
The only way is to test it out. Check the bold patterns and front clips from both cars and compare. You could do it before they take the car.
post pics after you install it.
This would be awesome Im so tired of my Grey leather !
Tan interior ftw!!! lol I would like to see how this turns out.
how bout the front seats? got pics and know if they fit?
after seeing a bunch of pics, doesnt the interior of the xg350 look like an jdm 8g? i think op struck GOLD!!!!!!
The Grandeur XG was a mid-size luxury car. In some other markets, namely North America, it was called the Hyundai XG. The first two generations were essentially rebadged Mitsubishi Debonairs, with the third generations developed entirely by Hyundai, with technical experience learned from the first two generations. It shared a platform and engines with the Kia Opirus (Amanti in North America). After their success with the Grandeur, Hyundai decided to develop the next generation Grandeur on their own from the ground up with the technology they have accumulated through the past Grandeur generations. This allowed Hyundai to export the XG outside South Korea without any possible legal issues.
I found an XG300 at my junkyard. Took out the chrome door handles surprise surprise the screws fit the 8g including the plastic clip. But that's about it. The seats may need to swap rails and the rear seats "looks" like it can be swapped directly. I can't bring a camera there so please noobs don't ask me for pics just imagine it in your heads.
Top (even without mounting) is wider and door does not close.
Top itself got different mounting brackets that doesn't fit 8g.
Top sides (side support) are separate on xg (8g got one piece top part).
Get 8g leather and repaint it!!!

'You Didn't Build That' vs 'We Built This'
September 5, 2012 at 1:46 pm	· Filed under Philosophy, Political	and tagged: democracy, government, ownership
The difference between the modern American political debates is almost null, when put into a broader philosophical context. Politics remains interesting, especially in a version of democracy because of its incremental changes over time. Transitions remain active.
Specific to Integrationalism the argument over, "how we build" and "who builds" is so necessary at this time in human history. The debate, under different rhetoric, is actually about ownership and who should have a stake in a society, nation, culture, world that has been (even through a coined "recession") growing.
Preceding the US major political conventions, The President remarked that business owners don't build businesses on their own and Mitt Romney arguing that the President is against the individual success of business owners based on the rhetorical interpretation of these few words "you didn't build that".
This makes me of a signed copy of a book that I had the privilege to get while in Toronto at the World Future Society annual conference titled Networked. It's centered on this ideal that authors Rainie & Wellman call networked-individualism, a very similar ideal to Integrationalism itself. They are pointing out a phenomenon more modernly recognizable than the more fundamental physiological network that I elaborate on here. Through our technological extensions of social networks and device usage, human-kind is evolving into a species that can rapidly recognize the impact of the individual on the group.
From a policy standpoint, it has been difficult for governments of the past to regulate the distribution of tangible values to its individuals, furthermore, incentivizing them to participate well in the society. In 19th century Europe and 20th century America we witnessed a boom of distribution through the jobs and a short lived protection of those through organized labor (unions). As elaborated on here and so many other places, the change in technological use which provoked an expanded (cheaper) global workforce has rendered the job-engine inadequate.
The debate on jobs and workers' rights is misleading and per the arguments presented by the two presidential candidates last week, the debate would be more valuable with a focus on how we distribute ownership. Realizing this is difficult, we have to use our tangible networked-individualism for identifying the opportunities to compensate individuals for their value-add to the group. These are policy issues that private institutions cannot coordinate on their own.

Backpack Index: The Cost of School Supplies Dropped Across All Grade Levels
The decrease in supplies cost comes after a 10-year period where prices steadily rose
Published August 1, 2018 • Updated on August 1, 2018 at 1:12 pm
College prep material costs increased 10 percent
Still, parents can expect to pay less for school supplies and other fees
Between 2007 and 2017, prices for supplies increased by about $10
Back-to-school shopping isn't getting more expensive for once, according to new survey.
The cost of classroom supplies dropped across every grade level ahead of the 2018-19 school year, according to the latest Huntington Backpack Index.
While some costs fell, college preparatory material costs increased 10 percent.
The index is an annual survey that analyzes the costs of school supplies and other expenses arranged by The Huntington National Bank and nonprofit organization Communities in Schools.
(Disclosure: Communities in Schools is a partner of NBC- and Telemundo-owned stations' Supporting Our Schools campaign.)
This year, parents can expect to pay less for students' school supplies and other school fees than they did in 2017. According to index data, parents will pay about $637 for an elementary school child, $941 for a middle school child and $1,355 for a high school student.
A middle-income, two-child and married-couple family will spend about $13,000 per child each year, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data on the cost of raising a child. Child care and education accounts for 16 percent of that figure.
The decrease in the cost of school supplies will likely prove beneficial to teachers, as well. Ninety-four percent of public school teachers pay for classroom supplies, according to data from the National Center for Education Statistics.
The price changes come after last year's index revealed that school supplies became more expensive between 2007 and 2017. Over that 10-year period, prices for supplies increased by about $10.
Each year, Huntington receives classroom supply lists from elementary, middle and high schools throughout eight states and constructs a representative list of required supplies and fees. Then, it selects moderately priced items at national online retailers to determine the costs.
"We need to ensure that every child in America comes to school equipped for success," said Dale Erquiaga, president and CEO of Communities In Schools, in a statement. "Regardless of reduction in cost,the price of school supplies remains a challenge for low-income families and for teachers who often supplement supplies for their classrooms. That's why we bring existing community resources inside schools to make sure that no student starts out behind."
