Women's Amateur Stroke Play Championship
The Forest Country Club - Fort Myers
Lamm Captures Women's Stroke Play
After enduring numerous weather delays, Lauren Lamm prevailed to capture the 19th Women's Amateur Stroke Play Championship at The Forest Country Club, in Fort Myers, on July 12-14.
Lauren Lamm, of Lakewood Ranch, posts a tournament total of two-over par 218 to win the Championship by one shot. Lamm opened up the Championship with a three-over par round of 75 to trail the first round leaders by three strokes. The second round was delayed over 5 hours due to in-climate weather, but when the skies cleared Lamm carded an impressive round of one-under par 71, to grab a share of the lead after 36-holes. After a 4 1/2 hour delay on Sunday, Lamm came out firing with birdies on 2 and 4 to go along with only one bogey to turn at one-under par 35. After playing holes 10-17 in only one-over par, Lamm would head to the 18th tee with a one stroke lead. Lamm hit two great shots to set up a routine par on the last hole to post a final round of even par and win the title.
Tara Connelly, of Palm Beach, took home second place honors after rounds of 74-73-72. Connelly narrowly missed out on a playoff after her birdie putt on the 54th hole just grazed the hole to fall just one shot short. Kimberly Benedict, of Bonita Springs, Megan Kiley, of Lakeland, and the 2012 FSGA Women's Player of the Year, Meghan Stasi, of Oakland Park, all finished tied for third place with a tournament total of four-over par 220.

Hi guys! I've been a bit inactive, but only because I've been helping a new family member settle in to his routine. I've never had one of these guys and wanted to see what all the fuss was about, so I picked him up from our local reptile expo a couple weeks ago. Everybody, meet Mushu!
Aiming for a Master's in Herpetology.
Ah, yes, bearded dragons...awesome pets, I produced many a few years back and my favorites all reside with friends now. Best of luck with your new friend!! I kept them for over 20 years so I can also help you out if any questions.
0.1 Het-Sunset Northern BTS, "Grendel"
1.0 Kenyan Sand Boa, "Leto"
He's a handsome boy..... Welcome to the wonderful world of beardies.
I've had both bluetongues and central beardies as uberspoilt and much loved pets for about 5 years and both species are fantastic as pets.
My bluetongues George and Mildred (anyone who likes pommie TV comedies/siccoms will know why I named them these names - especially after Mildred bashed up George one day in his hide when they were both little, yes I immediately separated the pair after that) are both snugglers as well as all my beardies .
My beardies and BTs are all be very affectionate and darned cleaver buggers too and all have individual personalities. All love free ranging inside the house ( but I never let 2 beardies out together or the two BTs out together, though I do regularly let a BT and beardie out together, being similar sizes as adults and they seem to get on OK , well they do their own thing , unless I toss a superworm onto the floor or the bluetongue decides it's thirsty (BT will gave big guzzle and beardie will trot over to see what's going on and watch)).


Ques 16. Explain a polymorphic association in Ruby on Rails.
Ans. Polymorphic associations allow a model to belong to more than one other model through a single association.
Here, the class Picture belongs_to both Employee and Product, but does so through a single association rather than through multiple.
Ques 17. What is a Proc?
Ans. Procs, short for procedures, act similar to blocks, but can be saved as variables and reused. Think of them as blocks you can call over and over again on multiple arrays.
Ques 18. What is a lambda?
Ques 19. What are the three levels of method access control for classes and what do they signify? What do they imply about the method?
Public methods can be called by all objects and subclasses of the class in which they are defined in.
Protected methods are only accessible to objects within the same class.
Private methods are only accessible within the same instance.
Be able to explain why this does (or doesn't matter), and when you would want to set a method as private.
Ques 20. Explain what functional testing is in Ruby on Rails.
Ans. Functional testing in Rails allows you to test the response of various actions contained in a controller. Using the Rails default test library, mini test, functional tests use a collection of assert statements that will tell your testing library to expect a certain response based on a control request passed in (either a get, post, patch, put, head, delete request).


Often a single stage gear train cannot reach the desired RPM rate that is required, so multi stage gear trains must be used. However, when dealing with multiple stages in a gear box, finding the right combination of gears to reach a desired RPM output can be tricky. Often it requires a trial and error approach that can become time consuming, especially when considering a large number of gears to select from.
To remedy this problem, I have created a gear selection algorithm in Python that will allow the user to input a desired output RPM or range of RPMs and return all combinations of gears that satisfy the specifications. It will take into account each type of vex motor internal gearing as the initial speed, and can consider gear trains consisting of only gears, sprockets, or both. Additionally it gives the user the ability to exclude gear sizes from the computation or add custom sized gears.
In this example, a desired output of 280 RPM was desired, and due to space constraints the 84 tooth gear was decided to be omitted. By running the program, it was found that a 100 rpm motor cartridge must be used, and the closest achievable RPM output is approximately 278 rpm.
cool! Could come in handy for those struggling with understanding compound ratios.
Thanks! I hope it helps! I originally wrote it to help with my Senior Design Project at NJIT last year, then realized it could be useful for vex so I optimized it for vex. I'll upload my original version once I get time to polish it incase anyone needs it for non-vex applications.

Nigerians have taken to social media to react to the news of the crash landing of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo's helicopter in Kabba, Kogi State on Saturday.
If this crash-landing of Osinbajo's chopper involved the PDP, our APC propagandists like Ogundamisi and El-Rufai would've already cheekily attributed it to a curse or an atonement for their sins. This is the danger of such thinking, such trivializing of things beyond our control.
Muhammadu Buhari car explode months to 2015 election. E survive without a scratch, winning so much sympathy from all corners.
Yemi Osinbajo helicopter don crash weeks to 2019 and e survive without a scratch.
While you wish death to Pastor Osinbajo, there are 9 million mothers whose school kids are fed daily by him, 500,000N-Power Graduates employed, 2million market women supported by his Trader Moni. These women cried for help,and God used Osinbajo.
I give all honor and adoration to almighty God on behalf of our VP Prof Yemi Osinbajo , his aides & the crew for saving their life.


Using non-invasive treatments ranging from -200 to -300 degrees Fahrenheit, the team at Broward Cryotherapy aim to help their clients recover more quickly from injuries or surgery and reduce pain. The body is exposed to freezing temperatures for up to three minutes, and sessions can burn 600-800 calories and lead to increased adrenaline and endorphins while at the same time boosting the immune system and blood circulation. The dry air used in the cryotherapy chamber can reduce muscle temperatures without compromising the skin, and keeps muscles cold even after skin returns to its normal temperature.

Home LEARN Kindness Rocks spread joy around Chicagoland
Kindness Rocks spread joy around Chicagoland
by Shannan Younger
Credit: Kindness Rocks Naperville Facebook page
"I got a rock!"
That cry is going up in communities around Chicago and the rest of the world, leaving Charlie Brown fans scratching their head at the enthusiasm that always accompanies it.
It's a game of hide-and-seek, with kids being elated, rather than being disappointed, to find colorfully painted rocks with positive and affirming messages on them.
Cape Cod resident Megan Murphy began The Kindness Rocks Project in the spring of 2015. She wanted to spread encouragement and kindness to others. Her idea? Drop random inspirational rocks wherever she could to be discovered by unsuspecting residents. The idea caught on in a big way and has gone international. Rocks have been found in countries from Thailand to Ireland, and everywhere in between.
Kindness rocks have been found throughout Chicago, and Naperville in particular has embraced the project. Naperville resident Ann Zediker first heard about the project from her aunt in Elmhurst. An inspired Zediker started the Kindness Rocks Naperville project and the Naperville Park District and the Naperville Police Department have joined the community in wholeheartedly embracing the effort.
The Naperville Park District encourages using their 137 parks in the community to hide the rocks, but asks that people do so in planters and planting beds. Thirty members of the Naperville Police Department painted rocks with uplifting messages, crime prevention strategies and pictures and hid them around town, according to a post on their Facebook page. Some of the community responses on the post are truly heartwarming.
Anyone can join in and spread positivity. It's as easy as finding rocks and painting them with any image or message that makes you happy. Then, you hide them.
If you discover a rock, you have options: leave it, re-hide it or keep it. There are Facebook pages where you can share your treasures.
Painting and hiding kindness rocks can be a great summer project for kids that allows them to be creative and to spread kindness to others. It's also inexpensive and not too time consuming. You can do it as a family, host a gathering of friends to paint rocks or find an event around town.
Learning Express in Naperville is hosting a hide-and-seek rock painting event for kids ages 5 and up on Aug. 7 from 3-4 p.m. Reservations are required. You can make them by calling 630-922-3334.
Kindness rocks are a wonderful reminder for our kids that kindness is all around. Encourage them to create it and to be on the lookout for it!

We crave vacations to break up the routine of daily living.
But then on vacation, when I travel to only one destination, I automatically fall into a routine.
Mexico involved rising early for a one hour walk on the beach, a swim, reading until breakfast, beach time, 4 pm mango margaritas and guacamole, sunset watching, dinner and bed.
The past weekend was our first in Los Angeles in quite a while.
As fits our LA routine, Sunday we were up and out early.
David jumped on his motorcycle by 6am to avoid traffic and headed for the the Pacific Coast Highway, destination Malibu.
I was tackling the mountainous Tesmescal region by 7am before the heat exploded over the beach area.
By 9am we were armed with empty sacks heading to the Palisades Farmers Market.
Our regular vendors welcomed us back warmly.
We purchased a huge bunch of lavender gladiolus from the friendly flower guy.
Next stop, Froggy French bakery for freshly baked scones and a delectable baguette.
The strawberries and raspberries were sweet at the everything is $3 lb. fruit stand.
The local fisherman had gleaming fresh ahi tuna.
We trudged home with our purchases, unpacked and then packed up for the beach and were reading by the Pacific Ocean by 10:30am.
Even the sun damaged, wrinkled woman in the thong who never stops talking was still staking claim in the same exact spot, rearranging her blanket every 20 minutes to soothe her compulsive personality.
Lunch was had by all from the Beach Side Cafe.
Our family dinner was absolutely maaavelous as my daughter assumed her familiar role as sous chef and we whipped up ahi tuna napoleons with cucumber, pickled ginger, avocado and sprouts layered with rice.
It was like old times, craving all the memorable moments.
Alas, despite the pushback, routine can be pleasingly gratifying.

Home / News Release / Second Scudder Falls Bridge Span & Closed I-295 Entry/Exit Ramps To Be Phased into Service by Wednesday Morning, August 18
August 12, 2021 /
Second Scudder Falls Bridge Span & Closed I-295 Entry/Exit Ramps To Be Phased into Service by Wednesday Morning, August 18	Weather Could Still Affect This Schedule
LOWER MAKEFIELD, PA – The Scudder Falls Toll Bridge's second parallel span and the flanking closed entry/exit ramps along I-295 EB/SB in Pennsylvania and New Jersey are scheduled to open between Tuesday and Wednesday of next week, the Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission announced today.
As currently scheduled, the new bridge and flanking closed interchange ramps (three in Pennsylvania and one in New Jersey) will be fully open to traffic by the start of the morning peak commuting period at 6 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 18.
The project contractor had sought to begin the travel pattern transition process for the new bridge span on Monday, Aug. 16, but rain events the past two nights undermined that schedule by postponing applications of a polyester polymer concrete (PPC) wearing surface to the new bridge span's road deck.
Weather permitting, the anticipated timeline of traffic shifts and construction activities to bring the new bridge online, reopen closed exit/entry ramps, and establish a new temporary project travel pattern on I-295 is as follows:
7 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 17 – Preparatory paving and line striping work will take place in the area of the on-ramp from NJ Route 29 to I-295 SB on the New Jersey side of the Scudder Falls Bridge.
9 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 17 – The on-ramp from NJ Route 29 to I-295 SB on the New Jersey side of Scudder Falls Bridge will be shut down for two hours, ending approximately 11 a.m.
11 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 17 – I-295 in the New Jersey-bound direction (eastbound in Pennsylvania and southbound in New Jersey) will be reduced to a single lane to allow for a High-Intensity Construction Cycle (HICC) of uninterrupted work activities along the highway over the next 18 hours. During this period, workers will reset temporary roadway barriers, remove temporary highway lighting, install or reset permanent lighting, change signage, mill and pave highway and ramp transition areas, remove or obscure old pavement lines, and apply new pavement striping.
7 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 17 – Begin the process of switching I-295 New Jersey-bound traffic onto the new bridge span and reopen the I-295 off-ramp to Route 29 immediately after crossing the Scudder Falls Bridge into New Jersey. (This is one of four ramps that have been closed near the bridge since July 12.)
8 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 17 – Switch New Jersey-bound traffic onto the newly completed downstream bridge span and begin reopening the three Yardley-side ramps at the I-295/Taylorsville Road interchange (Exit 10) that have been closed since July 12. I-295 EB in Pennsylvania and I-295 SB in New Jersey will continue to remain in a single-lane travel pattern at this time.
8 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 17 to 5 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 18 – The reopening of ramps closed ramps will be completed along with the remainder of HICC work, including grading, milling and paving, installation of temporary work zone barriers and other roadway safety measures, and roadway striping.
4 a.m. to 6 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 18 – Lane closures along I-295 in Pennsylvania and across the Scudder Falls Bridge's new second span into New Jersey are removed, allowing for two thru-traffic lanes in each direction and access to/from all ramps at the I-295/Taylorsville Road interchange (Exit 10) in Pennsylvania and the I-295/Route 29 interchange (Exit 76) in New Jersey.
6 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 18 — At this point, the newly opened second bridge span (downstream) will operate with two thru-traffic lanes and one auxiliary lane to handle decelerating, accelerating on traffic at the interchange ramps at both ends of the bridge. Likewise, the current bridge span (upstream) will have two thru-traffic lanes and one auxiliary lane for traffic entering I-295 NB and the bridge from Route 29 in New Jersey. The open lanes will all be to the right side of each bridge structure. This will allow for a cordoned work zone along the center section of I-295 through the project area during the coming months.
The new travel pattern of two through lanes with an additional auxiliary lane on each bridge is scheduled to remain in place for up to four months while the Scudder Falls Bridge Replacement Project's third and final stage of construction activities take place. This will largely involve roadwork and drainage improvements on the New Jersey side of the bridge. The shared-use pedestrian/bicycle facility also is expected to be completed during this period as well as final transitional improvements along I-295 and final paving and striping through the project area.
Additional travel restrictions to complete the project will be needed sometime after Labor Day. These will largely involve ramp closures in the area of the I-295/Route 29 interchange (Exit 76) on the New Jersey side of the bridge. More information, including duration and detours, on these travel restrictions is expected to be made available in early September.
Overall, the project remains on track to reach substantial completion by the end of December. This is when the final travel configuration can be implemented with I-295 having three travel lanes in each direction on the bridge's approaches in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The completed dual-span bridge, meanwhile, will have three thru-travel lanes and dual shoulders both spans. The upstream span will have an additional auxiliary lane for Pennsylvania-bound traffic. The downstream span will have two auxiliary lanes for New Jersey-bound traffic. Final completion for the project's remaining punch-list work is late May 2022.
Shared-Use Pedestrian/Bicycle Facility
The bridge's shared-use pedestrian/bicycle facility and corresponding ramps in New Jersey and Pennsylvania will not open before the Labor Day weekend. The earliest possible opening would be sometime in the early fall. (Note: Under the construction contract, the contractor has until the project's substantial completion deadline (mid-December) to complete the new facility, which is on the Scudder Falls Toll Bridge's upstream span. The facility will connect with the towpaths for the Delaware Canal in Pennsylvania and the Delaware & Raritan Canal in New Jersey.
IMPORTANT NOTE – All dates, travel restrictions, and facility openings identified above are subject to change due to weather, emergencies, traffic, and equipment/materials availability.
Motorists are urged to allow extra time to reach their destinations, reduce speeds and exercise caution when travelling through project work areas.

Brookfield Reaches Deal To Buy GGP, Form New REIT
National View count:
March 26, 2018 Miriam Hall, Bisnow New York
Brookfield Property Partners is acquiring mall owner GGP for $9.25B in cash in a merger that will form one of the U.S.' largest publicly traded owners of retail properties.
Under the deal, announced Monday after the markets closed, GGP's shareholders can choose to get $23.50 in cash or one unit of Brookfield stock for each GGP common share.
Brookfield is creating a new REIT as part of the sale, which will be called BPY U.S. REIT, and shareholders will be able to elect to receive shares in that new entity, worth 40% more than GGP's current dividend. GGP's select committee, which was assembled to review the merger, unanimously recommended the mall REIT's shareholders approve the sale.
Earlier this month, Brookfield made an updated offer to GGP, after its November cash-and-stock acquisition offer for $23 per share was rejected. The new offer, according to Brookfield, increases the aggregate cash consideration from $7.4B to $9.25B.
Brookfield already owned 34% of GGP's shares, and controlled several seats on its board of directors.
"This is a compelling transaction that enables GGP shareholders to receive premium value for their shares and gives them the ability to participate in the long-term upside of their investment," Brookfield Property Partners CEO Brian Kingston said in a statement. "We are pleased to have reached an agreement and are excited about combining Brookfield's access to large-scale capital and deep operating expertise across multiple real estate sectors with GGP's portfolio of irreplaceable retail assets."
The tax reform law slowed down negotiations, according to Reuters. Reports of Brookfield's interest in GGP first surfaced in 2016.
The Chicago-based REIT has approximately 125 retail centers across the country, and was saved from bankruptcy in 2010 by Brookfield and other investors. During its 2017 fourth-quarter earnings call, GGP CEO Sandeep Mathrani said the company leased 9.7M SF in 2017.
Brookfield was rumored to be in talks to buy Forest City Realty Trust, though the company did not confirm it was trying to by the Cleveland-based REIT. But last week, Forest City announced it would not be proceeding with a sale.

Similarly to crude oil, gold did not start November in the best possible way. The price of the yellow metal reached $1237.50 on the first day of the month, but was down to $1196 by November 13th. Unlike crude oil prices, however, bullion managed to reverse the negative trend and bounce up to $1230 yesterday.
According to traditional wisdom, gold is the best hedge against inflation. With a strong, but slowing economy and a tightening Fed nowadays, many believe the price of gold should rise in the future. On the other hand, the truth is that gold has been an exceptionally poor inflation hedge historically. Between the years 1900 and 2000, gold's average annual appreciation rate was 2.6%. U.S. inflation averaged 3.2% per year during the same period. Gold investors lost 0.6% a year to inflation during the entire 20th century!
So instead of relying on traditional wisdom, which is usually more traditional than it is actually wisdom, we prefer to use the Elliott Wave Principle and focus on what is really driving gold prices – market psychology. The chart below was sent to subscribers as a short-term update on Wednesday, November 14th.
Eight days ago, gold was barely holding above $1200, following a steep decline from over $1236. This chart, however, gave us a strong reason to expect a rebound. The recovery from $1180 to $1243.50 looked like a textbook five-wave impulse, whose wave 4 was a triangle. The Elliott Wave theory states that every impulse is followed by a three-wave correction in the opposite direction. After that, the trend can be expected to resume in the direction of the impulsive sequence.
The drop to $1196 seemed to be a simple a-b-c zigzag retracement, meaning the bullish 5-3 wave cycle was complete. In addition, the bears had already reached the 61.8% Fibonacci support in wave "c". All this information made us think $1200 was probably not a good level to short gold from. Eight days later, we now know it wasn't.
Gold headed north almost right away, adding $30 an ounce in a relatively short time. The U.S. – China trade war, Brexit woes and higher inflation expectations were among the usual suspects many experts leaned on to explain the surge after-the-fact. None of them, unfortunately, is very useful to traders, who need to prepare for the next move in advance.
The next time you find yourself waiting for a CPI report, trade war- or Brexit-related news, don't forget to take a look at the price charts. The market might have already left a hint there in the form of an Elliott Wave setup.
What will Gold bring next week? That is the subject of discussion in our next premium analysis due out late Sunday!


I was going to file this next car under the heading of "I don't know what this, but I like it" but instead I'm going to put it in the "I have never heard of this car, but I like it" bucket...and as regular readers of this site can attest, we publish some odddd stuff around here. It was known as the Mazda 323F, Mazda Astina, Mazda Allegro, or Mazda Artis, but you've probably never heard of ANY of those cars because it was only sold in Japan, Europe, Chili, Columbia, New Zealand and a few other obscure locales...now that I look it it...it appears to have been sold EVERYWHERE but North America. Find this 1995 Mazda Lantis 323F offered for $9950 in Santa Clara, CA via craigslist. Tip from Matt.
Car is like New inside and out !!!
Nice shape...that's writing checks the motor can't cash. According to wiki, this one is motivated by 81-115bhp, since the 147-pony R was only available in JDM and had five wheel studs. "Designed by Porsche" appears to be a bit of a exaggeration; the designer did at one time work for Porsche but was at Mazda when this car was penned.
It's cool though, for sure. And it's probably more funner to drive since, you know, Mazda.
I used to tell people my Miata had suspension designed by Lotus. If asked about it I explained I rode in a Lotus once and built the coilovers myself so there is a clear connection there.
Someone must have squeezed the 25-year rule pretty hard to get this one in, and in California to boot. Certainly an attractive design, compared to the very conservative Mazda Protege that we were receiving at that time. Mazdas of that era were a LOT of fun to drive.

The Wicked + The Divine 1923 Review
By Matthew Peterson February 12, 2018 3 Mins Read
Every ninety years, twelve gods return as young people. They are loved. They are hated. In two years, they are all dead. The year is 1923. It's happening now. It's happening again… Your Major Spoilers review of The Wicked + The Divine 1923 awaits!
THE WICKED + THE DIVINE 1923
Writer: Kieron Gillen
Artist: Aud Koch
Colorist: Aud Koch
Letterer: Clayton Cowles
Previously in The Wicked + The Divine: "Basically, a bunch of 1920s gods based on major modernist figures stuck in the middle of an Agatha Christie murder mystery, done in a comics-prose hybrid that's clearly trying to start a fight with JONATHAN HICKMAN. (Yeah, you heard, Jon. Come at us, bro.) It's high art versus low art, with the most beautiful AUD KOCH artwork the world has ever seen. We're so excited, we may have to have a lie down."
PART PROSE, PART ILLUSTRATED
When I picked up this comic, I was not expecting to read fifty-odd pages of prose (or, honestly, 40 pages of prose and some beautifully drawn traditional comic pages) but I have to say, this is the kind of surprise I like in my comics. As this issue opens, the Pantheon of 1923 (last seen in WicDiv issue #1) arrives on Neptune's island for a confab, only to find Lucifer dead in the dining room. What follows is a fascinating parallel to the modern events of The Wicked + The Divine, but then again, they share the same Ananke, who is a large part of both tales. As thing unravel, Dionysius is killed, then Neptune, and the remaining members of the Pantheon turn on one another, leading to a rather shocking confrontation in a lighthouse. Most amazingly, it all comes together in a way that is both surprising and absolutely the only way this story could have ended…
EXPERIMENTAL, BUT SUCCESSFUL
"Next time, she'd do better." As last lines go, it's remarkable and perfectly apropos, and the writing in this issue is top-notch stuff, filled with topical references to the 1920s and hints at the possible role of Ananke in the events of World War II. It's rare to have a comic be so dense and layered in both story and art, but this issue is impressive across the board, with Aud Koch's illustrations perfectly capturing an art deco tone that is aided and abetted by some lovely production work throughout the issue. The coloring in these pages is mostly black-and-white, with sepia tones for depth and occasional blasts of bright red for murderous emphasis. It's not an easy issue, but it's essential for anyone who enjoys the WicDiv experience and wants more of the same, but in the vernacular of a different era…
BOTTOM LINE: TEN LITTLE IMMORTALS?
In short, it's an actual honest-to-Pete novella with several illustrated scenes and it captures the tone and texture of 1923 admirably, especially given the limitations of the comic genre. The Wicked + The Divine 1923 is worth the price of admission for the insight into Ananke's psyche alone, but offers a fascinating story and some incredibly art to sweeten the deal, earning 4.5 out of 5 stars overall. Just be ready for some big blocks of prose and know that they're absolutely worth the extra time you'll spend compared to the average comic book reading experience…

Once upon a time, there was a young nerd from the Midwest, who loved Matter-Eater Lad and the McKenzie Brothers... If pop culture were a maze, Matthew would be the Minotaur at its center. Were it a mall, he'd be the Food Court. Were it a parking lot, he'd be the distant Cart Corral where the weird kids gather to smoke, but that's not important right now... Matthew enjoys body surfing (so long as the bodies are fresh), writing in the third person, and dark-eyed women. Amongst his weaponry are such diverse elements as: Fear! Surprise! Ruthless efficiency! An almost fanatical devotion to pop culture! And a nice red uniform.

Stephen Colbert's 'Teen Secrets' Reveals the New Ways Teens Hide Their Drugs
Chris Chaberski
Chris Chaberski Published: May 19, 2017
Question: What do flip-flops, calculators and stuffed animals have in common?
A teenager is definitely stashing drugs inside one of them—or maybe all three!—according to Thursday night's Late Show.
On May 18, Stephen Colbert's "Teen Secrets" segment caught up with some local news reports warning parents of the dangers of ordinary-looking objects that devious youngsters may be transforming into covert narcotics containers. (They may even be using something as innocent-looking as a sandwich!)
"Turkey club?" Colbert asks in the clip. "More like turkey drug."
Parents, watch this episode closely... but take it with a grain of salt.
Meanwhile, on The Tonight Show, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Jimmy Fallon played a game of "Blow Your Mind," where they had to respond with "true" or "false" to a series of outrageous statements. (Example: "If laid out end to end, the human small intestine would be longer than a football field." Ew.)
Over on ABC, Jimmy Kimmel managed to get his hands on some "undercover footage" of an off-the-record lunch at the White House with Donald Trump and numerous network news anchors. In the clip, lunch is served with a large helping of Game of Thrones, which is bad news (heh) for the talking heads. (By now, everyone should realize right away that if you hear a cello playing "The Rains of Castamere," you should GTFO!)
Though everyone is busy catching up with that Harry Styles "Carpool Karaoke" bit this morning, James Corden also had Benicio Del Toro on The Late Late Show to discuss his ubiquitous Heineken commercial—you know, the one where he does that look he's been working on for 15 years. Corden breaks out the original version of the ad, and it has quite a different ending.
Which was your favorite bit from last night? Tweet us @PopCrush to let us know!

As Boise Brewing has expanded production — including its recent move into canned beers — the community-supported brewery has begun to run out of space, Rudeen says. The silo will help alleviate that, storing up to 48,000 pounds of Boise Brewing's base pale malt, Rudeen says. Buying grain in bulk saves money and shipping costs, he adds.
Truck traffic will be reduced, too. Instead of a grain vehicle parking outside and requiring a bunch of palette-moving every two weeks, a truck will appear every few months. It will simply attach a hose and fill the silo to the brim.
When all is said and done, the grain silo addition will cost about $30,000, Rudeen says.

Pro-Palestinian protesters have disrupted a football match in Bischofshofen, Austria between the Israeli club, Maccabi Haifa, and French team, Lille.
The game - a pre-season friendly in the state of Salzburg - was interrupted when around 20 protesters waving Palestinian flags stormed the pitch, police said.
The protesters tried to attack Yossi Benayoun, Maccabi Haifa's captain, as well as other members of the squad.
One player was spat on, while the coach entered the pitch to protect his players.
Officials called time on the match at the 86th minute. The police said no-one was hurt in the incident.
The players left the dressing room - under protection - an hour after the match ended because some protesters had remained outside the stadium. Nobody was arrested.
Maccabi Haifa released a statement regarding the incident. "We experienced an uncomfortable atmosphere of violence on the pitch and in the stands. The attack was premeditated and dangerous in light of the incitement in Turkish media. [The protesters] were mostly Turkish immigrants."
Maccabi Haifa has several Muslim players in its squad. The club told the Jerusalem Post that it believes in "co-existence and tolerance."
"We condemn the violence that was used against us. This happened not because of sports or football, but because we are a team that represents Israel."
Israel launched a military offensive on July 8th with the declared objective of stopping rocket fire from Gaza.
At least 649 Palestinians and 32 Israeli soldiers, plus three Israeli civilians, have been killed in the past 15 days of fighting, officials say.
Austria's Foreign Minister Sebastian Kurz condemned the attack against Maccabi Haifa.
"I demand a full investigation of these incidents. The perpetrators must be brought to justice, because in Austria there should be absolutely zero tolerance for religious or anti-Semitic violence," he said in a statement.

It's important to open the hive and get a good last look before winter settles in. There might be a sunny warm afternoon in December or January to check on the bees before spring, but since that cannot be counted on, we chose this past weekend to really get in there and have a long session and clean everything up.
Our hive checks have been cursory at best in the last six to eight months, and those were mainly for keeping on top of varroa mite infestations. We noticed, early on in spring, that the bees had really built up a lot of comb around the bars and at the bottom of each curve of comb, attaching each bar to the floor of the hive. We weren't sure why they did this, but what it meant for us was that every time we tried to remove a bar to inspect it, the bar would tear, and we'd have a mess of comb and honey to clean up. This led to a lot more honey harvesting than we expected to do this year (it turned out to be fine because the bees had plenty). Still, bees get pissed off when you break their comb, and with good reason. What with my new allergy to stings (which brings with it a certain, well, gingerness) and Tom learning to take point on our hive inspections, plus a very large amount of bees this year (even after the swarm!), this meant that we just weren't as thorough as we should have been.
Not everything was rosy. We did notice some problems. I saw one small hive beetle.
These guys can be a terrible menace to a weak hive. Our hive is strong, so it appears that the beetles haven't gained the upper hand, but the beetles are hard for the bees to attack and remove and their shells resist stings. One plus is that they must go back into the dirt to pupate, so I've ordered some beneficial nematodes to apply in the earth around the hive - those nematodes will feed on the larvae of the hive beetle. I bought these from Arbico Organics. I've never seen small hive beetles here before, and I'm hoping that this method will eradicate them before they become a nuisance.
Another thing we found was some evidence of wax moths. Nothing big, nothing terrible, but some of the webby stuff that is the sign that they've been there.
A strong hive can fight these off too, and it looks like our bees have defended themselves well, but we cleaned up anything we found relating to wax moths and got rid of it. They are primarily a warm-weather problem, so I don't anticipate them overtaking the hive during winter.
I also added a prophylactic treatment for varroa mite, as I had seen a little bit of bee larvae on the landing board a few days ago (the bees often remove larvae that is compromised). There is no drone larvae at the moment, which is good, as that usually harbors the most varroa; but I want to eradicate any possibility as the hive goes into winter, so that they are still strong when it is cold. I don't want nosema, which is a fungal pathogen that causes dysentery in bees, which often appears when colonies are weakened. They don't need that when it's cold and wet. I used Apiguard, which is thymol, which is made of the herb thyme. It's an organic treatment which kills mites on bees but not the bees.
One thing that has NOT been a problem this year is ants. I've never seen any on or in the hive, so my diatomaceous earth around the hive legs has been effective.
Both Tom and I feel good about this hive cleanup and preparation for winter; the funky comb has been bothering us for months, and it feels great to have it dealt with. Tom has become really good at hive inspections - this is one of those things that you can only learn by doing, I think.
And a good side benefit of it is that we have lots of honey to give away as teacher gifts this year, which is great.
One last interesting thing regarding bees - my friend in Orange County sent me this picture from her garage. I guess this was recently revealed when they were doing work. I advised her to call her local beekeeping association, which she did - and it turns out, most of the feral hives found in Southern CA are Africanized, or aggressive. So beekeepers don't want to keep them (understandably) and these colonies are often destroyed. As was this one. Very sad! It also makes me think that the aggressive bees will slowly be moving north and we'll have to deal with them more often here. I think, in many ways, aggressive bees probably survive better - studies seem to show they have less pest pressure - and that could be an answer for the total bee population going forward, but it would be very hard to manage aggressive bees in an urban situation! I'm sure we'll be hearing more about this as they become more common.

Thanks, Fred. I'm not sure why the system created two playlists, sigh.
Nope, the other one still displays "Note: This playlist is still being updated."
Hmm, from the popup it still links to the other playlist. Howdy fred.
Popup still not displaying updates, however.
You got two february 11ths running in the Playlists and Archives page.
Yes I know, thank you, there's a glitch in the system.
If you click on playlists and comments on the homepage, it will still redirect to the 84122 instead of this one.
Good morning! Are you all seeing the playlist getting updated by any chance?
Jesse!! WHERE ARE YOU?! Yeah, also playlist issues here.
Also, sup ben abs & co.
