Workshops, conferences, exhibitions, guided visits ... IED Madrid participates in the MADRID DESIGN FESTIVAL with a schedule of free activities during the whole month of February.
This February the city will become a major contemporary space to host all design disciplines at the MADRID DESIGN FESTIVAL. The festival, organised by La Fábrica, begins its first edition with an ambitious programme that includes exhibition and training activities, having proposals by reference designers and young creators.
IED Madrid, that participates as a official school, draws on its more than 20 years of experience with free activities for restless, curious minds. We recommend you not to make plans in February: lighting, fashion, product design or art direction will invade your diaries.
On Saturdays in February, we discover design in the city through its creators' activity. The Malasaña and Carabanchel neighbourhoods have been home to design studios, workshops and city transforming hybrid spaces for years.
After a light breakfast, we propose you test the creative pulse of Madrid with these guided tours. Are you coming for a tour? Sign up at comunicacion@madrid.ied.es stating your name, surname, telephone and the day you want to come.

SO HOW much is he really worth?
According to his 2015 Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and Net Worth or SALN, presidential frontrunner and Davao City Mayor Rodrigo R. Duterte has a net worth for 2015 of only P23,514,569.93, or a slight P1,54-million increase in his declared net worth in 2014.
Duterte's cash on hand/in bank, according to his latest SALN, was just P14,839,69.93, as of Dec. 31, 2015.
In contrast, until yesterday noon, Vice President Jejomar 'Jojo' C. Binay, another candidate for president, had yet to file his SALN for 2015 with the Office of the Ombudsman. Meanwhile, there is a waiting period of 10 working days to secure the 2015 SALNs of fellow presidentiables Senators Grace Poe and Miriam Defensor-Santiago – that is, if they have already submitted these. Former Interior and Local Governments Secretary Manuel 'Mar' Roxas II, though, will not have to file a SALN this time around, since he is no longer a government official.
Interest in Duterte's SALNs has surged following allegations that he has bank accounts through which hundreds of millions of pesos have supposed passed through. For sure, certified bank records may be needed for anyone to prove or disprove such allegations. But what Duterte's SALNs do show is a phenomenal growth rate over the last 19 years.
The earliest SALN Duterte had filed that is on PCIJ's archives is for the year 1997, in which he declared a net worth of only P897,792.
The Davao City mayor's net worth of P23.5 million for 2015 redounds to a 2,519 percent increase, or a phenomenal growth rate of 132.6 percent on average per year, over the last 19 years.
By comparison, Binay's net worth grew from P2.9 million in 1989 to P60.20 million in his SALN for 2014, for a cumulative increase of 1,975 percent in 25 years, or an average of 79 per cent per year.
Roxas, the administration Liberal Party's candidate for president, reported a net worth of P12.76 million in 1993, and grew this to P202.08 million in 2014. This results in a 1,483 percent growth in 21 years, or 70.61 percent on average per a year.
Defensor-Santiago, candidate for president of the People's Reform Party, showed a modest uptick in her declared net worth — from P48.00 million in 1994 to P73.03 million in 2014, for a 52.14 percent growth in 20 years, or 2.6 percent annual average growth.
And then there is the case of Poe, presidential bet of the Galing at Puso slate, which is one of progressively declining wealth. Poe declared a net worth of P152.5 million in 2010, but this slipped steadily to P89.46 million in her SALN for 2014, for a net regression of 41.34 percent in four years, or negative 10.32 percent on average per year.
Although far from being "perfect" financial reporting instruments, SALNs often contain interesting information about a public official or candidate's wealth, regardless of whether or not the official or candidate had been forthright about all the details.
four pieces of residential real property worth only P480,000 by acquisition cost.
He said he acquired these lots, all located in Bago Aplaya, Davao City, between 1995 and 1996.
Also declared among his "personal properties" are two vehicles — a Toyota RAV 4 acquired in 1996 for supposedly P800,000, and a "Volks Sedan" acquired in 1978 supposedly for P40,000.
Duterte named his 11-year-old daughter by his second partner in this separate assets list.
On this list are five real properties. Duterte said three lots are located in Maa, Davao City, one house and lot in Matina, Davao City, all reportedly acquired from 1997 to 1998, and a second house and lot located in Buhangin, Davao City that he said he purchased in 2008.
This third set of properties includes three lots — two agricultural and one residential — located in Matina, Malagos, and Catigan, all in Davao City; and two house and lots in Matina; Davao City.
Duterte valued this final set of real properties at P3.08 million, by acquisition cost.
On this separate page, too, Duterte listed a "personal loan" of P1.2 million from a certain "Samuel Uy".
In his SALN for 2014, Duterte had declared a net worth of P21 ,971,732.62, including combined real and personal properties of P22,971,732.62, and liabilities of only P1 million to a certain "Samuel Uy".
In his 2015 SALN, Duterte declared his business interest in two entities — as incorporator since 1997 of Honda Cars, with business address at Catolico Street, General Santos City; and as incorporator since 2012 of Poeng Yue Foundation, Inc., with business address on San Pedro Street in Davao City.
declared owning seven real properties that he said he acquired for a combined cost of P603,700; and personal properties worth P3,250,092. The latter included, he said, "cash on hand/in bank" of only P189,245; cars and motorcycles worth P1,206,482; and "investments" of P1,556,250.
That same year, 1997, Duterte said he had "miscellaneous payables" amounting to P2,956,000.
Two years earlier in 1995, he said he invested a total of P1,556,250 in "Mister Donuts" outlets located in Ulas, Agado, P. Reyes, and Ecoland, all in Davao City.
Notably, like his net worth, Duterte's "cash on hand/in bank" has charted an upward trek in the last two decades, save for one year.
P1,047,792 as of December that year.
In 1999, he declared exactly the same amount of "cash on hand/in bank", but also a bigger net worth of P1,447,542.
In 2000, his "cash on hand/in bank" grew to P512,135, and his net worth, P1,766,722.
In 2002, it climbed to P889,441, and his net worth, P2,834,028.
In 2004, it jumped to P3,220,312, and his net worth, P7,024,899.
In 2005, it rose to P4,621,193, and his net worth, P8,425,780.
In 2006, it became P6,071,460, and his net worth, P8,650,627.
In 2007, he declared it at P7,079,199, and his net worth, P9,685,366.
In 2008, he put it at P7,514,124. This excludes what he declared to be P1,138,890 in premiums paid for educational plans; P1,305,953 in "private inheritance"; P454,500 in premiums paid for pre-need plans; P686,833 in time deposits; and P65,625 in stocks.
His declared net worth for 2008 was P15,315,925.08.
In 2009, the amount of Duterte's "cash on hand/in bank" climbed to P9,164,204.32, and his net worth, P16,616,005.40.
In 2011, he put it at P11,155,123.12, and his net worth, P18,930,123.12.
In 2014, he declared it to be P13,846,732.62, and his net worth, P21,971,732.62.


All of us love David and Goliath stories of ordinary people overcoming significant obstacles.
David RAN confidently TOWARD the giant.
David didn't devise a Plan A, Plan B and Plan C.
David spoke no negative words.
David used available tools and knowledge.
His prior pain became David's greatest asset.
Regardless of the giant you are facing, if you have already put your faith in Christ, you can defeat it with what you already know and what you already possess.

Monday's KU women's basketball game canceled because of COVID-19
KU Women's Basketball

Monday's Kansas women's basketball game against UT Rio Grande Valley has been canceled because of injury and COVID-19 protocols within the KU women's basketball program.
KU announced the cancellation Sunday afternoon and indicated that the game will not be rescheduled.
The Jayhawks (4-1) will now be off until Thursday's Big 12 opener against Texas in Austin, Texas. That game is schedule for 7 p.m. from Frank Erwin Center.
The KU men's program, which had its Sunday game against Tarleton State canceled because of a positive COVID-19 test in the Tarleton State program, is also scheduled to open Big 12 play on Thursday, at 6 p.m. at Texas Tech in Lubbock, Texas.
Thursday's KU women's game will mark a return to Austin for current KU assistant coach Terry Nooner, who was a walk-on at Kansas during his playing days and spent the 2019-20 on the Texas women's basketball staff.
The KU women, who won their Big 12 opener against Oklahoma earlier this week at Allen Fieldhouse, still have two non-conference games on the schedule later this month — Dec. 21 vs. North Dakota State and Dec. 29 vs. New Mexico State.
KU's 74-64 win over the Sooners came with OU bringing just six players to Lawrence because of COVID-19 issues within the OU program.
KU coach Brandon Schneider said after that victory that he and his team had talked about the potential for disruptions in the schedule since the season began.
"Every team in the country is going to face adversity with the pandemic," Schneider said on Thursday. "There's a good chance it's going to play a role at some point in the season. Today it was Oklahoma, and next week it could be anybody else."

Adelphi is an independent bottler with a fearsome reputation. Run by the Bruce family with input from whisky writer Charlie MacLean, it bottles some of the world's finest drams.
While the Adelphi name stretches back into the 1820s, its the more modern incarnation of the company that is currently wowing whisky fans around the world.
The Adelphi distillery itself was demolished between 1968 and 1971, but the name was revived in the 1990s for an independent bottling company. The current owners bought Adephi in 2004, and it has flourished ever since.
After years of planning, Adelphi got planning permission to build its own distillery on the Ardnamurchan peninsula in 2012 and broke ground on the site in 2013. The distillery started producing whisky in 2014 and small amounts are occasionally available, while the vast majority sleeps in Adelphi's well-stocked cellars, developing and maturing.

Git has a staging area which is area between your working copy and repository. You can add files to the index using git add command. Git adds files with respect to the .gitignore file.

	git add .  # adds all files
	git add -u # adds deleted files
	git add -A # shortcut for both previous steps

------

## Aliases

Git allows us to create shortcuts for frequently used commands in form of aliases.

### Adding aliases

	git config --global alias.pl "pull origin master"
	git config --global alias.ps "push -u origin master"
	git config --global alias.st "status"
	git config --global alias.sb "submodule"

### Deleting aliases

	git config --global --unset alias.name

### Listing aliases

	git config --global --get-regexp alias

------

## Branches

A branch in Git is a pointer to a specific commit. The default branch name in Git is master.

### Adding branches

	git branch branch_name

This creates a new branch at the same commit as is your current branch.

### Switching to a branch

	git checkout branch_name

### Renaming branches

	git branch -m old_branch new_branch

### Pushing new local branch to remote

	git push origin branch_name

### Pulling new remote branch

	git checkout -b branch_name origin/branch_name

### Deleting branches

	git branch -d branch_name

### Merging new branch into master

	git checkout master
	git merge new_branch

### Listing branches

	git branch    # local
	git branch -r # remote
	git branch -a # local and remote

------

## Remotes

Gits lets you define a number of remote repositories to work with.

### Adding remotes

	git remote add alias_name user@host.com:repo_name.git

### Deleting remotes

	git remote rm alias_name

### Listing remotes

	git remote    # just aliases
	git remote -v # aliases with urls

------

## Submodules

### Adding submodules

	git submodule add user@host.com:repo.git path/to/submodule

### Initing and updating submodules

	# from the project root
	git submodule init
	git submodule update

### Deleting submodules

First you need to delete submodule from the **.gitmodules** file located in your project root. Then delete submodule from your git **config** file located in **.git** folder of your project root. Then you need to run following command (note that there is no trailing slash):

	git rm --cached path/to/submodule

After that you just need to commit changes and delete the untracked submodule data.

### Editing submodule contents from your project

You can directly edit contents of your submodules from your project. After updating your submodules using submodule update command, your submodules are checked out, but not within a branch. So before making any changes, you need to be sure that your submodule is on specific branch. Now you can make the changes and then from the subproject root commit them.

------

## Reverting changes

### Commited but not pushed to remote

If you want to remove last commit but leave the files staged just use the --soft option for the git reset command. On the other hand, if you want to get rid of the changes to tracked files in the working tree use --hard option for that.

	# HEAD~1 is shorthand to the first commit before HEAD
	git reset --soft HEAD~1

### Commited and pushed to remote

You cannot use git reset for this scenario, you want to use the git revert instead.

	# this will create a new commit reverting all changes by the last one
	git revert HEAD

------

## Merging

### Dry run

	# it will not allow fast forward neither it will commit any changes
	# it will leave updated files in your staging area
	git merge --no-ff --no-commit master

Every time I've entered the entry zone for this expansion (on FV) I see between 1 (me!) and about a dozen people in the zone. That's it! The entry zone of a brand new expansion! Previous expansions have probably had 100-125 players in such a zone i the early weeks.
In any case the zone is certainly not well-designed to support lots of groups, what with the connected islands linear design.
This is the entry zone for a linear expansion where everybody has to do work in this zone in order to advance to the locked zones that come after it.
I think back about earlier expansions and how packed the entry zones were, even for expansions where they did not lock content behind progression quests and tasks.
This cannot be a good sign for the success of this expansion. I suspect a lot of players are not even bothering to buy it, or to try it, for the time being.
What's the sense in offering a new expansion with mostly locked content and almost nothing for newer or lower-level players?
I didn't buy TBL and will probably never have a chance to see the content. Makes me a little sad hearing how beautiful the zones are visually. I don't think DBG is at all in touch with the majority of their player base.
Yeah, I think they're pretty clueless.
Given the popularity of TLP servers, you'd think they'd throw a few bones to lower level players. Altho they probably don't have the staff or the budget to ever again do an xpac as superb as Serpent's Spine. Locking zones behind really difficult progression missions: yeah I get the basic idea behind this. You don't want raid guilds beating the final boss in the first two weeks. But this will happen anyway, or soon thereafter, because raiders will burn thru the progression quests very quickly.
I think it's a suicidal self-defeating design considering the current status of EQ and MMO's in general. I bought this xpac for my main because on the FV server I can then acquire expansion group gear for all my boxed toons without having to buy them the xpac. Heck, I have yet to do much at all in the two previous expansions because of the difficulty level of mobs and the involved quest needed to become immune to the aoe's trash mobs cast in EoK (I think lol). Honestly I don't have the free time nor the inclination to jump thru all these hoops just to see new zones. I don't want to come across whiney. I've paid my dues in the past as a raider. But I consider TBL basically a raider's expansion and I think mainly raiders will be the players buying it. You have to wonder how many more copies they would have sold if they designed it without locked progression, more open world zones, and at least a little content accessible and useful for sub-106 players. And note I don't play any toons sub-110 so I'm not "begging" for myself here lol. But I am pleased I will save all the money I would have spent buying this xpac for my boxes and alts.
It seems that quite a few people who frequent these boards are in a similar situation - that is, not currently looking for bleeding edge content for something to do. I have characters from teens to almost level cap but am many many expansions behind. I also avoid expansions that were/are horribly over tuned, like Undefoot. Sounds like this will be another Underfoot.
And I know the raiders need content, so this works for them. But the utter lack of desire to throw up some content for people not in raid gear, even if it is for level cap just speaks to the continued theme of ignoring "casuals" at all stages of the game in the last several expansions.

10 Latest Indian Suits You'll Actually Want to Wear!
From indo-western to anarkali, from Rohit Bal to Manish Malhotra, here are the top 10 Indian suit and salwaar kameez trends for 2016, off the runways!
Hey trend lovers! The latest fashion trends are something we all want to be updated on at all times. The Indian fashion weeks like LFW and AIFW happened a while ago, but today I am writing about Indian suits and salwaar kameez. Whether it's your BFF's wedding or your big day meeting your in-laws, salwaar kameez, chooridar and Indo-western suits are a great idea. They don't have to be boring, they can be fun, trendy and free-spirited!
So let's discover what the hottest trends are in the these Indian and Indo-western outfits. I looked through all the collections from Lakme Fashion Week 2016, and latest designer collections in the stores, to pick out the top 10 Indian suit trends to inspire you!
In suits and salwaar kameez, the lines are getting blurry between modern Indian, Indo-western and completely western dresses. The fresh trends we are loving the most include high-slit tops, off shoulder kameez, crop tops and many more. Plus we are seeing some trends from the previous seasons, like floor length anarkali.
Indo-western suits are the top trend in chooridars and salwaar kameez. This trend combines western details like asymmetry, sheer, crop-tops with traditional elements. Here are a few Indo-western outfits. One has sequin sheer top paired with dhothi pants. And I am loving the asymmetric top paired with palazzo pants which is really chic.
The asymmetric hem is one of the most flattering silhouettes in trend these days. The kurta or top is shorter in the front and longer at the back. Asymmetric tops or kurtas can be paired with loose pants or aladdin style pants with a dupatta around. I am in love with the high neck collared red dress designed by Shantanu & Nikhil.
Side slits are a great idea if you want a traditional look with a fresh twist. Side slit tops are a really new trend, which we are hoping will catch up more in the coming season. Pair them with a pair of silk embroidered pants for the perfect classy look.
If you want to make a real statement, off-shoulder tops are the perfect idea. Loose off shoulder full or three-quartered sleeve tops paired with palazzo and loose Aladdin-style pants are really in. These may also be asymmetric. This would be a great option for party-goers.
Front slit tops or dresses are surely an eye-catching fashion item. I love the concept. For an even sexier look, take the slit higher up to your ribs, and pair it with silk pants and palazzo.
I am loving the concoction of royal anarkali dress paired with long flared jacket and embroidery. All of my favorites in this trend this year are designed by Rohit Bal. This amazing outfit is great for weddings and parties.
Pre-draped duppattas are a great option for anyone wanting a fuss-free yet trendy outfit. It'll also make a excellent addition to your party closet or trousseau. The designer that got me hooked onto pre-draped is Shantanu & Nikhil. These designer suits look really trendy, so you can get lots of pics for your Insta, just post 'em with some cool suit quotes for Instagram!
These graceful dresses give a magnificent and royal appeal. This trend has been in for quite a few seasons now, but it's still one of the most favored choices for wedding and party wear. And I'm really adoring the peach-colored anarkali dress designed by Shantanu & Nikhil.
Floor length suits with high neck and collar add a formal touch to the dressing. My favorite in this list is the navy blue floor length with the long kaftan sleeve by Neeta Lulla.
Palazzo pants are back in fashion this season. They're a great idea if you're bored of pairing your kurtis or tops with chooridar and salwars! Pair them with palazzo (or loose pants) as we move on from slim-fit to wider leg silhouettes. Here, I'm liking the floral print silk kurti paired with palazzo.
So which Indian suit trend is your favorite this season? Comment below! I'm gonna write about Indo-western suits in more detail very soon! So, stay tuned.
That's a great post on Indian suits. I love floor length anarkalis, suits with front & center slit and of course, the fusion of western styles with Indian – cape style anarkalis, off shoulder, sequins, sheer material… LOVE all of it.
Give me a plain kurta and I'll just wear it with jeans until it gets wrinkled and then I'll never iron it again! So high maintenance!

Should gambling 'video games' be allowed in Ontario bars?
January 21, 2019 By Need a Loan Team
Ever walk into a bar in small-town Ontario and see a tiny entertainment system that looks like a slot machine you might find in any casino?
If you have wondered how these types of pseudo-gambling machines are allowed in bars, outside of casinos, you're not alone.
After all, playing these games called Got Skill? involves all the same mechanisms as a slot machine, according to CBC: "You sit in front of a screen, slide in your cash card, press a "spin" button and watch a wheel of symbols go around and around, hoping for a match." If it's your lucky day, you could win up to $2,000.
These machines have been classified as skill-based video games by the Ontario courts in a September ruling, not as a form of gambling.
Ontario's Alcohol and Gaming Commission took the case to court in 2017 and lost, though declining to comment to CBC, the Commission is appealing the verdict.
"We're working constructively with the new Ford government on a resolution that hopefully does not negatively impact us, including the many jobs we support," said Got Skill? president, Tony Carvahlo.
"We're confident that if it does go through a court process that the courts will determine once again, that our games are of skill."
Got Skill? was launched in 2015 and I now available is as many as 200 bars across Ontario. Participating bars do not have to pay for the Got Skill? machines to be placed in their establishments, but do collect a percentage of the profits.
In a Sudbury Overtime Sports Bar and Grill, three Got Skill? machines were installed six months ago. Some patrons and bar staff continue to question the legalities.
"You see the same faces playing it over and over again. I don't think it draws too much [more] traffic in my situation," said bar owner Atillio Langella.
If a bar accepts a Got Skill? machine into their establishment, bar staff are trained in the technicalities of the software, but not in how to "identify problem gambling".
Carvahlo from Got Skill? says there is no concern to be had based on the "very small" prizes offered in the game.
"We are confident that what we put in place is something that would not cause any issues from an addiction perspective," he said.
CEO of the Responsible Gambling Council, Shelley White, "strongly disagrees with that."
"Studies have shown that this particular type of machine is one of the riskiest," said White. Thirteen percent of users are prone to problem gambling on similar machines, versus two percent for "other kinds of betting".
Got Skill? is classed as a video lottery terminal (VLT) by the Responsible Gambling Council. VLTs are legal in a range of provinces from Manitoba to Nova Scotia. They have been similarly criticized for "spreading addiction and social problems."
White wants the province to establish guidelines on these bar VSTs, especially for the staff who she believes should have some of the same training as casino workers.

I worked with Angelique for my wedding, and she was amazing! The whole WedLocks team was a pleasure to work with throughout the process. The team for my day-off needs was on time, professional, kind, and even finished early. Adding on last minute services was no problem. Everyone's hair and makeup looked absolutely amazing and stayed in place all night. I would recommend this business without reservation!
Highly recommend Nine for your wedding! She came to my house to do my bridal hair/makeup and that of my two bridesmaids, which was exceedingly convenient. Nine took the time to ask us what we wanted, and to make us all feel comfortable and beautiful. She's energetic and outgoing, and kept a lively conversation flowing the entire time she worked.
We all loved the airbrushed makeup. It lasted through many rounds of tears during the ceremony, and still looked great more than eight hours after application.
Nine made me feels so beautiful on my wedding day. She is such a fun and talented lady! All of my bridesmaids loved her too! She always responded to my questions quickly and was easy to work with. I highly recommend her services.
Had a special event to go to. Even though it wasn't a wedding Nine took such great care of me. Even gave me hair and make up tips to help me everyday. Great atmosphere and reasonably priced. If you are getting married or preparing for a special night out. Nine is a must to see!
Nine and Elizabeth were so great to work with. Very personable and accommodating! Nine was also very helpful and responsive during the planning process. Very happy with our hair and makeup!
Nine did a beautiful smooth chignon for my hair and a classic natural make up and I couldn't of been happier. Thank you so much Nine for making me feel beautiful on my wedding day!
Nine did a fantastic vintage look for me on my wedding day. She and her team are fun and such a pleasure to have with you on such an important day! I definitely recommend any bride and her bridal party to seek this team out.
Nine is a hair and makeup genius!! She was so easy to work with, very responsive via email, and seamlessly coordinated bridal hair/makeup as well as 7 bridesmaids and mother of the bride. The hair was very soft and natural looking and lasted all day. Every look that nine and her team created for us was absolutely perfect. I was nervous about the airbrush makeup as I had never had it done before but it turned out flawless. Could not recommend Wedlocks more!! Thank you!
Nine is a magician! She did my hair and makeup for my elopement and she was absolutely amazing to work with!
The day I got engaged I immediately knew I wanted to book Nine and Wedlocks to do the wedding hair. The day of the wedding Nine and her team showed up right on time and ready to get going. I had 12 girls getting their hair done and every single one of them looked absolutely beautiful. All of my pictures turned out stunning and I have had multiple girls contact me since asking who did all of the hair. Wedlocks makes your wedding day very stress free and fun. I would recommend them to every girl getting married to get your dream wedding day look!
Just had Nine do my hair and makeup for my engagement photos and I'm obsessed with her work! She's a natural and so fun to chat with. Booking my wedding day and bridal party with her ASAP. If you don't use her, you'll regret it..
Loranine and her team at Wedlocks Bridal is an excellent choice for all budgets in Colorado! Nine is highly skillful, creative, and has a unique eye for beauty! I've worked with Nine on a variety of different projects and I can't recommend her talent, value, and customer experience any higher. If you're fortunate enough to hire Wedlocks Bridal, you're sure to have a stellar experience!
This review is for Jamie at WedLocks, she is AMAZING.
I am a tomboy that likes wearing makeup but I am very particular and I have NEVER been happy with makeup someone else put on me in my life. I loved my trial makeup but I really wanted to look even more natural and had a few other tweaks I wanted. I am somewhat soft spoken and sometimes my request are ignored/unnoticed by people but Jamie listed to me 110%. She adjusted what she was doing exactly how I requested and my wedding makeup exactly what I had in mind. She is so talented! She's also down to earth and honestly a really kind person. She even offered to come back to my venue with essential oils for me as a favor because I injured my neck the day before my wedding. 5 starts isn't even enough for her.
We had the most amazing experience with Wedlocks! My stylist was Jennifer, who was simply phenomenal! Before the event, we did our trial and tested out the look I was going for. She listened to everything I asked for and talked with me to get the exact look I was going for. On the day of, both Jennifer and Cici took excellent care of my bridal party. Each of our looks were similar, but unique to each person and extremely flattering. They took the time to even help out two of our flower girls feel super comfortable during the preparation phase! I could not have asked for a better beauty team and I cannot wait to work with these amazing women again!
Whatever your requirement, Bark will help you find local companies like Wedlocks Bridal Hair & Makeup.

Myanmar Issues Arrest Warrant for Ultranationalis...
Chris Young headlines 'Raised on Country World Tour' with fall dates set
Published On: Mon, Oct 26th, 2015
Hometown News / Religion / US News | By Kaye Wonderhouse
Franklin Graham to Christians: 'Stand up' for faith in 'culture of intolerance'
Franklin Graham said the gunman who killed nine people at a college in Oregon did so because he was "filled with hate" and encouraged Christians to "stand up."
"This was not about gun control," Graham said in a column for Charisma News. "It was about a man filled with hate, especially for those who bravely and boldly confessed they were Christians. The shooter, who listed 'organized religion' as a dislike on his Facebook page, perpetrated a hate crime against the name of Jesus Christ and those who follow Him."

Graham said that there is a "culture of intolerance" against Christians in the United States.
"From the media, to the courts, to this current administration, there has been a flagrant, disturbing mockery of Christian values and beliefs," he said.
Graham is referring to the bakers in Oregon who were fined for refusing to bake a cake for a same-sex marriage. He also mentioned the florist in Washington who also would not provide services for a same-sex wedding.
"Who would have thought that, here in our own country, there would be less empathy for Christianity than for any other faith?" he said. "That God-fearing people who stand up for their biblical faith would be called bigots and be vilified while those who harass and mock Christians draw approval and applause?"
Today's Christians need to take a stand against the "culture of intolerance."
"Here's what I know we can do: Like the courageous men and women at Umpqua Community College, in Roseburg, Oregon, we can stand up for our faith by unashamedly confessing Jesus Christ. They knew they would be killed when they stood and faced the gunman, and they stood anyway," Graham said.

One of the benefits of using RxJava is the ability to compose asynchronous events in a more straightforward way. Complex UI interactions in Android can also be greatly simplified too, especially when there are multiple UI events that can trigger. To describe the interaction pattern with standard Android code, you would usually need to use a combination of both listeners, Handlers and AsyncTask (see this ebook for an example). With RxJava and RxBinding, this logic can be greatly simplified and you can describe the interaction patterns between multiple UI components.
Make sure to follow the setup instructions for RxJava first.
Check out this link to learn more about RxBinding.
You can use the RxJava to convert Android view events to Observables. Essentially the library wraps the listener and implements the Observable interface as described in this section.

Business Schools Front Page
James Martin 15th December 2021
Henley Business School Africa has become the first business school to be accredited by the Association of African Business Schools (AABS) making Henley Africa the first business school on the continent to be quadruple accredited.
This marks the second institutional accreditation that Henley has achieved in 2021 following the news in April that Henley Business School UK was re-accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) for the next five years – the highest level of such recognition. This means that we maintained the place we have held since 2001 as one of the world's leading business schools in holding all the major global business education accreditations, the others being AMBA and EQUIS which were both renewed in 2019.
Each of the accreditation bodies exists to raise the standards of business education; the accreditation process is rigorous and takes into account all aspects of the Henley experience, including teaching and learning, curricula, faculty and research, as well as Henley's overall strategy and mission.
Valid for five years, the Association of African Business Schools accreditation is based on the strict parameters of the AACSB and EFMD models and recognises Henley Africa's work to decolonise education, making it accessible, relevant and vital, within the context of building back better after the impact of COVID-19.
Jon Foster-Pedley, Dean and Director of Henley Africa, said:
"This assessment really demonstrates what our faculty and staff achieved. They can rightfully be enormously proud of this. African education as a whole is finding its voice, standards and stature in its own right, and this means that we can confidently collaborate to build better business education across Africa."
Henley Africa has been at the forefront of innovation during the pandemic, from its successful pivot to virtual learning in March 2020, to creating a range of short courses for everything from entrepreneurs to virtual medicine and aspirant farm managers. It has also pioneered the use of virtual reality in its immersive learning component as part of its unique post-graduate diploma programme for Africa.
The Business School introduced its MBA to the South African market in 1992, and Henley Africa was launched as a fully integrated school of Henley in South Africa in 2002. It now offers undergraduate programmes and various short courses alongside its International MBA and Postgraduate Diploma in Management Practice.

Nolan poised to join Ireland
KEVIN Nolan, who has Irish grandparents, is ready to snub England. The Bolton skipper, 23, is so fed up at being ignored by Sven-Goran Eriksson that he may well offer his services to the Republic of Ireland.
Kevin Nolan
KEVIN Nolan, who has Irish grandparents, is ready to snub England.
The Bolton skipper, 23, is so fed up at being ignored by Sven-Goran Eriksson that he may well offer his services to the Republic of Ireland.
Nolan, who has been in impressive form for the Wanderers, said: "It's always the same 18 or 20 names in the England squad and maybe the odd one when someone drops out. Maybe I have an outside chance of breaking in, but I can't really see it.
"The point about playing for a so-called fashionable club has been made. David Moyes made the point last week about Phil Neville. He has 56 caps, he didn't play as much for United as he has for Everton but hasn't been picked for England.
"Why is that? It is just mad isn't it? What do you have to do?"
Ireland boss Steve Staunton, who has been to watch Nolan's team-mate Joey O'Brien, will be delighted the combative scouser is ready to switch.
He said: "Ireland is something I really have to consider. Joey has asked me if I would ever consider it and I will think about it."
FIFA have confirmed that Nolan can compete for Ireland even though he played in an under-18s European Championship qualifier for England against Poland in 2001.
Staunton is looking for new blood as he prepares his team for the 2008 European Championship qualifiers.
Allardyce, who has been championing Nolan's cause with England, said: "He can play for two different countries and the choice is down to him."
Meanwhile, Bolton goalkeeper Jussi Jaaskelainen wants to sign a new deal but fears he might be forced out.
Allardyce is believed to be ready to cash in on Jaaskelainen, who has a year let on his contract.
"The ideal situation is that I sign an extension," said the goalkeeper.

There are a couple on interesting joint holiday socials happening this week. GPSEG's Sales and Marketing subgroup, the Philadelphia chapter of the American Marketing Association, and the Marketing Executives Networking Group (MENG) are holding a joint social on Monday. Then PAMPI, PPRA, HSMAI, ISES, NACE, and PCMA are jointly holding a Jingle Jam on Tuesday (let me tell you, these event planners know how to party).
I mention these because joint meetings are a great time to network. You have an opportunity to meet a wide cross-section of people that you might not ordinarily meet. Plus, I find there is a lot of cross-over in many of these groups, so odds are that someone you know from one organization will be able to introduce you to someone they know from another. Referrals are always the best way to meet people. A great, "Hello," as it were.
What I list here are just a fraction of the 79 other events you can find for this week on the Basecamp Business regional calendar of business events, so check it out for more.
There are a lot of events this week, but almost none next week, so This Week in Philadelphia will take a holiday break. Enjoy yourselves, and keep safe.


Nissan Titan rolls out the Midnight Edition!
Nissan – continuing their lineup of factory custom editions – added Titan, Titan XD and Frontier pickup trucks to the program for 2018. Looking as good as any available from a premium after-market supplier, Nissan has nailed it with good looks, premium fit and an affordable price.
Just as the Midnight Edition look makes a distinctive statement in their CUV/SUV and sedan vehicle line – that statement becomes ever more powerful on what Nissan calls their 'every- duty' trucks.
The Nissan Midnight Edition Package on the Titan V8 full-size truck features a choice of exterior colors: Glacier White, Gun Metallic Monotone and Magnetic Black Monotone.
The Midnight Edition Titan stands tall and strong on it exclusive black 20-inch alloy wheels mounted with Goodyear P275/60 R20 Wrangler SR-A all-season tires. The bold front grille and bumpers match the chosen body color while other exterior elements compliment the 'Midnight Edition' theme. They include Black-trimmed Headlights, Black Fog Light surrounds, Black Outside Mirrors and Door Handles and Black Step Rails.
Special Black Midnight Edition badging and Charcoal interior trims complete the package.
The 2018 Nissan Titan Midnight Edition trucks can be ordered in the SV or the higher SL trim levels in 4x2 or 4x4 configurations. The price of the package for each trim is the same – $1,250.
SV 4x2 $42,315 with the SV 4x4 $45,345.
Nissan sent us a Titan 5.6L Endurance V8 SL 4x4 Crew Cab for a weeklong test. Our test truck was in the very handsome Gun Metallic Monotone. The interior was Black with Charcoal accents.
As handsome and capable as it was outside, so it was inside. Elements included Leather Appointed Captains Chairs featuring 8-way power driver and 4-way passenger with a large front console that has lots of storage room including enough for a 15-inch laptop computer. The rear seat was 60/40 flip up with fold flat floor and storage.
Technology and other features included Remote and Push Button Engine Start, Front and Rear Sonar, Advanced Driver Assist Display, multiple power outlets, Tire Pressure Monitoring, Blind Spot Warning with Rear Cross Traffic Alert and more. Of note was the awesome Rockford Fosgate 12-speaker Premium Audio system which delivered a pulsating audio experience in the cabin.
Our Titan also included Nissan Connect with Navigation, 7-inch color display, Nissan Voice Recognition, SiriusXM Satellite Radio, Traffic and Travel Link, USB connectivity, Bluetooth Hands-free Phone and Siri Eyes Free. Don't let the 7-inch display put you off. It is vividly crisp, bold and easy to read – as good as some much larger.
All Endurance V8 Titans are powered by the U.S. built 5.6L Direct Injection gasoline engine (developed for Titan). They pump out 390 horsepower with 394 lb.-ft. of torque and are mated to a 7-speed automatic transmission with manual gear select. Fuel economy ratings (4x4) are 15/21 mpg city/highway and 18 mpg combined.
Titan hauls loads up to 1,950 pounds and tows up to 9,740 pounds when properly equipped – and our Titan was.
Our test Titan was equipped with a Shift-on-the-Fly 4-wheel drive system with 2-speed transfer case, Tow/Haul Mode with Downhill Speed Control, Hill Descent Control, Hill Start Assist, Brake Limited Shift Differential, Integrated Trailer Brake Controller, Trailer Sway Control, Trailer Light Check, Class IV Receiver, 4-pin/7-pin Wire Harness Connector, Rear View Monitor with Guidelines and Intelligent Around View Monitor.
Besides being a decent hauler, this is a workhorse with the 20-inch wheels and tires, Front Tow Hooks, Spray-in Bedliner, Utili-track cargo management system, LED Under Rail Cargo Lighting, Tailgate Illumination and a 120 V Power Outlet in the bed. Other elements included Automatic LED Headlights, Fog Lights, Power Folding and Heated Exterior Mirrors, Power Sliding Rear Window and the rugged Black Step Rails.
Nissan had added a couple of extras on this test truck. They included the convenient Rear Bumper Step, Electronic Tailgate Lock, Midnight Edition Floormats and – a favorite of ours – a pair of the Titan Box in-bed lockable storage units. We like these in particular as they are removable and they fit below the lip of the bed, allowing a tonneau cover to fit over them for extra security. For tools, toys, refreshments or 'other', these do the job.
The delivered price for our 2018 Nissan Titan Endurance V8 SL 4x4 Crew Cab was $54,775.
Nissan offers a full range of 'every duty' Titan Endurance V8 full- size trucks in three cab sizes and 4x2 and 4x4 configurations. Titan trucks begin at MSRP $30,030 (single cab S 4x2) through the Platinum Reserve 4x4 Crew Cab at MSRP $56,800.
All are covered by the Nissan 'America's Best Truck Warranty' that features bumper to bumper coverage for 5 years/100,000 miles.
The Midnight Edition Package is available on several vehicles in the Nissan line.

The video with CVG is of the same section, with the CVG applied behind the slat step. The shockwave is observed in both of these cases, and is consistent with the in flight imaging of the shockwave on the B737 wing at Mach 0.78.

Black Friday deals not all they seem, reveals consumer group Which?
Those Black Friday deals that look too good to miss might actually not be all that compelling after all.
Research by consumer goods group Which?, conducted over the last year, has revealed that around 60 per cent of a selection of last year's Black Friday deals were actually cheaper or the same price at other points during the year.


My friend Cathie loves to take her dog Happy to the local farmers' market in Orange County, NY. Happy tends to be shy around people and Cathie said everyone at the market is friendly and loves her. The market is not overcrowded so it's a great, stress-free place to get Happy used to being around people and other dogs.
Does your local market allow dogs?
Not all farmers markets allow dogs. Sometimes the "No Pets Allowed" rules are specific to the market and sometimes they have to do with state and local health laws.
In California, for example, with the exception of service animals, dogs, cats, birds and other animals are not allowed into or at food facilities, including farmer's markets.
In a Montgomery Bay Certified Farmers' Market post, Executive Director Catherine Barr said dogs don't belong at the Freedom, CA, market. She's seen dogs sniffing food and marking tables with their scent and has also witnessed children getting bitten and aggressive dogs going after one another.
Dogs are welcome at the Newburgh, NY Farmers' Market, where owners can purchase organic dog treats made with ingredients like coconut oil and parsley. The New Brighton, MN, Farmers' Market is also dog-friendly and hosts an annual Dog Days of Summer Event, which features a dog costume contest and lots of vendors selling locally-made dog treats and gifts.
Thinking of taking your dog to the farmers' market? Here are some things to consider.
Make sure dogs are allowed.
Make sure pets are allowed at the market before you hit the road. Barr said that despite signs specifying that pets aren't allowed around the perimeter of the Montgomery Bay Certified Farmers' Market, visitors still arrive with "their pets in tow, tucked into purses, or even in baby strollers".
If the rules say that pets aren't allowed, leave your dog at home.
Respect your dog's comfort level.
Not all dogs do well in a crowded environment, and farmers' markets can get crowded. If your dog isn't comfortable around children, strollers and lots of people moving around, then it's best to keep him home or try to hit the market at the quietest time of the day.
If your dog is afraid of loud noises, he or she might not be happy at markets that offer entertainment and loud music. On sweltering hot summer days your dog will also be more comfortable staying at home.
Make sure your dog has some basic training.
It's important that your dog knows some basic training before you visit a farmers' market together. For instance, will he sit quietly by your side while you're talking to a vendor or making a purchase?
If your dog will be pulling on the leash and getting into other dogs' and children's faces while you are browsing or conducting business, then it's safest to leave him at home.
A farmers' market is not the place to use a retractable leash, and many markets state that these leashes are not allowed.
Even if you keep the retractable at the standard length, they can accidentally extend and allow the dog to jump on food tables or get too close to other dogs and into children's faces. In addition, other people and dogs can easily get tangled and injured by the retractable cord. It's safest to use a standard 6-foot leash.
Never leave home without a supply of poop bags. When you get to the market walk your dog around the perimeter first to give him or her the opportunity to poop and pee. And always pick up after your dog and dispose of the poop bag in a garbage bin.
Keep your dog close by you, and don't allow him or her to mingle with other dogs in crowded areas of the market. Your dog might be friendly but you can't be sure about other dogs.
Don't allow your dog to jump on other people. Not everyone loves dogs, and many children are afraid of them. So keep your dog to yourself unless someone asks to pet him or her.
At most farmers' markets the produce is high enough that dogs can't reach it, but if produce is low to the ground, don't allow your dog to sniff or lick fruit and vegetables. And, of course, never allow your dog to relieve him or herself around the food stalls.
REMEMBER. Not everyone likes your dog..
One would have to be a complete idiot not to know these things.
There are not (decent) farmer markets around here. The only one we know sells almost exclusively pieces of animals or their production (like eggs). However I don't think our dog would be suited. He walks well on a leash yes, he is friendly yes, but he would probably start to bark loudly out of excitement. I mean any busy market or place. And anyway: any place full of humans is not a place suitable for other species in my opinion.
Of course! Simple basic rules to respect!

Comey Testimony Exonerates Trump, But It Won't Change Anything
RUSH: He has told the Democrats and the media just enough for them to continue their narrative that Trump's scum and a pig and violated the law, and he has given the Republicans enough ammo to take the position Trump didn't do anything. In other words, nothing is gonna change here. When this is all over, nobody in media is gonna say, "You know what? We blew it!" Even though CNN… CNN's gone pathological — total, total pathological — on this. And they're gonna be pathological tomorrow, and they're gonna be pathological tonight, because nothing today is going to result in the media or the Democrats gulping and saying, "Gee, we got this wrong."
It's not… I mean, the evidence is there that they got it wrong. But the way Comey's explaining it to them as though he is Sigmund Freud, able to read minds. All he has to do is just throw them some crumbs here to keep their narrative going, and that's what he's done, and he's done some of that for the Republicans as well. But given that… I mean, after having said that I could eliminate all discussion on this today because there's really nothing more to tell you. But that's not what we're gonna do.
We're still gonna break it down for you because it is I, El Rushbo, able to read the stitches on the fastball even now after all these many years. There are some fascinating revelations that happened today, and it's sad that they're not gonna change anything. Let me give you two basic things here that should end this but they won't. James Comey admitted under oath — and we had it yesterday in the prerelease of his testimony — that Donald Trump did not ask him to stop the Russian investigation. Therefore, there is no obstruction of justice.
Furthermore, President Trump acknowledged that Comey might have a legitimate investigation of other people who perhaps did collude with the Russians. When Trump was talking about "the satellites," he means other people, and he acknowledged to Comey that, if there's evidence somebody did something, we gotta go find it. So he was in no way attempting to stop the investigation. He wasn't trying to shape it. He wasn't trying to misdirect it, redirect it, and Comey admitted so today.
The other thing that we have learned that ought to eliminate all of this is that Comey affirmed what was in his prerelease testimony yesterday, that Donald Trump was not a target and never has been a target of the Russian collusion investigation. Trump told the truth, even though Comey says he's a liar. Comey came across as a whining, cowardly guy during some of his testimony here. But he admitted that he told Trump three times that Trump was not a target of the investigation.
Donald Trump was understandably unhappy that Comey would not make this public. Donald Trump believed that if Comey would simply say that Trump is not a target here, that it would free Trump from the distractions and allow him to focus (and his regime to focus) on the agenda at hand. Comey had also cleared Hillary Clinton in this July 5th press conference which everybody saw, including Trump. Comey goes out there and lists her crimes and lists her violations of statute and then says, "But there's no intent.
"We couldn't find that she intended to break the law, and therefore no reasonable prosecutor would proceed," and then he closed the investigation. Now, the Russian investigation has not been closed. Comey said — and this is really thin. Comey said he talked about it with colleagues. And it's really strange too. Some things he did tell colleagues and other things he didn't, like when Trump asked him alone in the Oval Office — when Trump cleared the room — Comey says he got very frightened. He got very scared.
This was unusual. He didn't know what was going to happen, and so after the meeting he didn't tell anybody what Trump had said, even though he was highly suspicious. Why didn't he resign if it was that bad? Why didn't he tell anybody when he came out of the Oval Office? Why did he get out of there alive and unbruised if he was so afraid of Trump and being alone in the room with him? Comey said that the reason he didn't say publicly that Trump was not a target is because they had to leave room to change their minds.
They had to leave open the possibility that Trump would become a target. They didn't want to be in the position of having to correct the record. What a bogus — absolutely bogus — reason given for not announcing that the president was not a target. There's another thing we've learned here. This is… It's hard to take one thing here and say it stands above all others in things that surprise and shock me, but this one's pretty close to the top if not the top: This damn fake, phony, made-up-out-of-thin-air Russian dossier.
Well, it actually wasn't Russian. It was written by an MI6 British agent, this totally made-up series of allegations, the golden shower dossier. This is the one where Trump supposedly rented a hotel room in Moscow used by Barack and Moochelle Obama, and he hired some prostitutes to come in there and urinate on the bed (i.e., the golden shower). We've learned that Comey took that seriously. We have learned prior to today that that dunderhead, John Brennan, Obama's CIA director, took it seriously, that he thought it formed the basis of a legit investigation.
This is the dossier that BuzzFeed published in toto, having to admit nobody could confirm anything in it because none of it was true. BuzzFeed says, "But we think you, the American people, need to see this just to see this kind of stuff that's out there." That's not why they did it. And so we have two of the preeminent intel and investigative agencies in our country — Comey at the FBI, Brennan at the CIA — acknowledging that a bogus, fake, totally unlegit/illegitimate document formed the basis for all of this that comprises this silly soap opera that we've been subjected to as a nation for the last nine months.
That's got to be at the top of the list of things that boggles the mind the most. I also think this. I think, after listening to Comey today — and this has been an experience for me. The guy's admitted that maybe he didn't have enough courage to stand up to Trump. He maybe was a little scared. The guy runs the freaking FBI! He's the FBI director! At any rate, this entire thing I think is rooted in the fact that Donald Trump speaks a foreign language from what is spoken in Washington. Trump shows up in Washington, and he speaks the way he speaks.
He can be New York tough guy. He can be standard, ordinary, everyday American male. But one thing Trump is not is precise and careful and defensive and politically correct, and everybody in Washington is. Everybody in Washington speaks completely on the defensive. Everybody in Washington has a bit of victimhood in them, and so the way they speak in many ways is designed to evoke sympathy, but you don't have a lot of tough talkers in that town.
That's why when you encounter one they stand out so much. So Trump shows up, he invites Comey into the Oval Office, and Comey starts quaking in his boots (hyperventilating), "What does he want? What does he want? What does…? Oh, God! Oh, God!" And Trump says (paraphrased), "I hope you can let this Flynn thing go." And what does Comey hear? Well, you'll hear in the audio sound bites. Comey heard all kinds of things that Trump didn't say. That's why Comey says, "Well, not with his words, Senator. No, not — not in his words."
Well, what the hell else was going on in there? Are you a mind reader? Look, I'm serious, folks. (interruption) What? I think they speak different languages. Comey is admitting he has to try to read minds here to understand what Trump is saying. So you have an admitted coward and somebody who's admittedly afraid to be alone in a room with the guy now trying to tell us what Trump really meant. I don't think — and Donald Trump Jr. has tweeted this. I don't think anybody who's ever talked to Donald Trump has ever not understood what the guy means.
If there's one guy that hits you between the eyes with what he wants, means, and says, it's Donald J. Trump. There's no beating around the bush with the guy. I'll didn't you have another example of this. When Trump makes the joke about, "Hey, Russians, maybe you could find Hillary's 30,000 emails, and when you find 'em, would you hand them to the media," do you realize all of Washington thought that he was urging the Russians to hack Democrat computers. And he was cracking a joke.
He was mocking them. He was laughing at them. He was making fun of their hand-wringing, girlie now-type attitude that a lot of Washington, D.C., men seem to possess: Afraid of everything, afraid of this, politically correct fear. So Trump says, "Hey, Russia, maybe you can find the email," and they have no idea. They actually thought he was encouraging… They've lost sense of humor. They don't understand satire and parody. It's hopeless. Comedy on the left has become hate. If American leftist comedians are not saying hateful things, then nobody's gonna think they're any good or funny.
Marco Rubio. I have been somewhat disappointed in the squishiness of Republican senators in this hearing today, and then I had to catch myself and realize they don't like Trump. They have no brief for Trump. Half of them are running around salivating over President Pence. There are already news stories about that. Of all the Republican senators who could have sat this one out — of all the Republican senators who could have done their best to help Comey undermine Trump — it would have been Marco Rubio, based on the campaign.
You know, Trump went after "Little Marco" pretty famously. Marco Rubio… It took him awhile to get there, but Marco Rubio in the last 30 seconds to full minute of his questioning of Comey did the best of anything I've heard yet come from any Republican on the committee. Richard Burr, the chairman (impression), "Uh, Mr. Comey? Uh, you know what? We're glad you're heeeere, uh, and we appreciate that you come — and we'll be in our closed session." I said, "Is this how it's gonna be?" That's our chairman, Richard Burr from North Carolina.
(impression) "Mr. Comey, did, uh…? Did the president ever liiiie to you?" Why does nobody entertain the possibility Comey might be lying? You know, Comey is protected. No matter what Comey says, everybody just accepting it as gospel. But again, I have to remind you: None of this matters. Even if we have a bunch of leftists listening today, anything I've said here is not gonna change their minds. It's just gonna make them hate me more. The narrative isn't gonna change. CNN! Look at their graphic: "Trump administration lied about me and FBI: Comey."
That, by the way, is one of the first things Comey said: His feelings were hurt. (impression) "I feeling really hurt. The president lied about me, he lied about the FBI, and I just want to say: You agents of the FBI, I have never been honored more and I have never been happier and I have never been more proud to work with a great bunch of people like you! And it really hurt my feel when the president lied about me and lied about you!" (scoffs) Save me! What is this, Boys Nation? What are we, a bunch of 16-year-olds here?
Anyway, CNN has been running that graphic. That's the big news to them, that Comey said that "the Trump administration lied about me and the FBI." That's what I mean. CNN, as far as they're concerned, no need to change anything here because Comey admitted that Trump lied, period. Doesn't matter about what. So we have audio sound bites. We're gonna make… We're gonna do this, folks, understand this. But I'm just telling you that Trump has been fully exonerated of everything you think, based on the media, he did. He has been fully exonerated — and damn it, it's not gonna change anything.
RUSH: Marco Rubio made another great point as he was wrapping up his question-and-answer period with James Comey. He said to the former FBI director, "You know, it seems like everything from your office leaked except the fact that the president was not under investigation." Now, stop. Isn't that not dead on? Everything — and whatever has been made up — has been leaked about this investigation — every damn aspect of it — except that the president was never a target. Of all the things, that never leaked.
What does that tell you? That tells you that all of these leaks were studied, they were tactical, they were strategic, they were timed, and they were intended and purposeful. Because the one leaked bit of information that would have thrown all of this upside down is: "The president's not a target." Imagine if that had leaked back in December, back in November. Where would we be today if that had leaked? You know the Flynn investigation? You know what this is about? This is gonna make you even angrier.
They don't have any evidence on Flynn. They're going after Flynn for lying to prosecutors. They're going after Flynn on a process charge. That's what they're trying to set up. Now, it's a felony to lie to investigators. I'm not… Don't misunderstand me. I'm not trying to exonerate Flynn. My point is, since late last year, they have been trying — "they," the Washington establishment and the media. They have been attempting to get you and me and everybody to believe that Michael Flynn sold out this country.
That Michael Flynn was talking to the Russians about things he shouldn't have been saying and doing, and he was making promises to the Russians that he shouldn't have been promising, and it was all in furtherance of the fact that Trump and the Russians were in fact colluding and Flynn was one of the agents of that. It's what they want you to believe. They don't have any evidence of any of that! Even after unmasking Flynn with all of these phone calls that he was discovered to be on with wiretaps of the Russian ambassador, they have no hard evidence of actual behavioral, criminal conduct by Michael Flynn.
They're still in pursuit of what is called "a process crime," the same thing that sent Martha Stewart to jail. I'll tell you one other thing as you continue to watch this. You will note that during the question-and-answer period with all these senators, occasionally a question will be asked, and Comey will say, "Senator, I can't address that in open session. Senator, I must reserve that for our closed session later today."
I've seen every instance of that this morning, and I'm gonna tell you what I think. I think those answers provide further exoneration of Trump and his people, and that is why Comey does not want to provide those answers in public, because the answers to those questions — and mostly they're coming from Democrats, some Republicans. But mostly they are questions to which the answers are helpful to Trump. So when Comey says, "I'm sorry, Senator. I really can't address that in open session," I want you to think that that's probably the reason why.
RUSH: I'm just gonna keep repeating this. The bottom line: James Comey said that Donald Trump did not ask him to stop the Russian investigation. James Comey said that Trump told the truth, that three times Comey told him that Trump was not part of investigation. No obstruction of justice and no attempt by Trump to shape this investigation one way or the other. There is no reason why we are even here. No legal reason.
Everything that you have imagined, everything you've been led to believe, everything you've supposed about this is not true. Trump was never the target; therefore, Trump never was thought to be personally colluding with the Russians. Did not happen! Comey would not make this public for obvious reasons. Comey also said Trump did not ask him to stop the Russian investigation. Comey also admitted that. He said the president "hoped" he would let the Flynn thing go.
Now, only in Washington where a bunch of girlie boys happen to rule the roost would somebody saying, "I hope you let this go" be a demand. What kind of wimp must you be to be talking to somebody, "I hope you let this go," "Oh, no! He's threatening me! Oh, no!" No, he said, "I hope you let this go, man. You know, there's really nothing to it. I hope you can see…" Where else but in this town does somebody saying, "I hope you let this go" be considered a threat?

Q: Loop issues in function #define colsPerModule (uint8_t)32UL
#define boardArrayWidth (uint8_t)2UL
#define boardColWidth (colsPerModule*boardArrayWidth)

uint16_t padMsg(char *p)
{
    uint16_t i, x=strlen(p), c=boardColWidth/(*(DMD.fontPtr+3));
    if(boardColWidth%(*(DMD.fontPtr+3)))
        c+=1;
    for(i=0; i<c; i++,x++){
        *(p+x)=' ';
    }//user.msgRam
    *(p+x)='\0';
    return(strlen(p));
}

Pls could someone look at this code snippet and figure out what could be wrong. The variable *(DMD.fontPtr+3) has the value 9, as stored in the location it points to. Therefore, c=boardColWidth/(*(DMD.fontPtr+3)) is  supposed to return the value 7, since  the constant boardColWidth equals 64 (32*2). But the expression  boardColWidth/(*(DMD.fontPtr+3)) seems to rather return the value 2. It worked well if I manually assigned the value 7 to the variable c.
