Minecraft content and materials are trademarks and copyrights of Mojang and its licensors. These can then be harvested by the player, behaving much like the contained ore does, except that the block will never fully break. As the Minecraft server software will ignore custom content from client side, most of the client mods which add new content to the game do not work in unless a modification has also been installed on the server.

Sticky-Mobile, a powerful, easy-to-use tool for creating QR codes without any programming knowledge, announced that they are using Rich Interactives' proprietary r-Glue Technology to more effectively engage consumers. r-Glue Technology makes it simple to create QR codes by letting users bookmark web addresses so they can view websites at a later time.
QR codes, also known as Quick Response Codes, are a type of two-dimensional matrix bar code originally designed to track car inventories in Japan in the 90's. The QR code is a square pattern of black modules on a white background. QR codes have a larger storage capacity compared to UPC standard bar codes. Its contents can be decoded at a high speed using QR code scanners. The popularity of mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets has enabled consumers to easily scan QR codes. Now they are one of the hottest marketing tools, used in both traditional and non-traditional marketing channels. The QR codes contain digitized information, showing the user information such as text, contact information (such as phone numbers and email addresses), website URLs and more when scanned.
The global mobile advertising revenue is estimated at 3.3 billion dollars by 2011 according to Gartner Research. This shift in advertising has businesses finding new methods to engage consumers and promote their brand using new media. Even though QR codes are very popular, there is still a great need for tools that can create, implement and track QR codes with greater accuracy and ease.
Most marketers are not programmers, and creating QR codes can sometimes be challenging and frustrating. Marketers typically want to spend more time developing their marketing campaigns rather than trying to figure out how to code their campaign. Sticky-Mobile makes it easy to generate QR code via an intuitive and user-friendly interface that can be easily embedded onto a web page. Sticky-Mobile allows small, medium or large companies to explore new avenues to reach their audience without needing to hire a programmer.
"Previously it has been difficult for marketers to know where to put an HTML tag without the help of a web specialist," Roger Carr, CEO of Rich Interactives, said, "Sticky-Mobile, equipped with r-Glue technology, makes it easier for anyone who wants to add QR codes to their website, to interact with consumers on the go."
QR codes are widely used in many industries, including retail, restaurant and hospitality. They appear in advertisements in magazines, business cards, newspapers, brochures, posters, websites and more. They even appear on sides of buses, airports and many other advertisements. They are used for promotional purposes, discounts and for offering additional product information. They make it easy to obtain customer engagement and loyalty. When a user scans a QR code, information is transferred and automatically added to their mobile device, eliminating the need to write down or type information and input the web address on their computers. This allows companies to reach their audience anytime and anywhere.
Users can scan the QR code using bar code scanning apps on their mobile device. The website is opened in a mobile web browser. With r-Glue Technology, users can easily store and share digital content on their mobile device. r-Glue Technology also allows users to save websites to a mobile device for later viewing. The user can now visit bookmarked websites again and again, keeping them engaged with a company's brand. They can also share their favorite websites with friends and family using their favorite social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. The stickiness that r-Glue Technology provides promotes brand awareness and can drive more traffic to websites. It optimizes websites and makes content more meaningful. It motivates customers to find out more about the businesses' products and encourages them to share content with their friends and families.
"The QR revolution means that consumers equipped with a smartphone can scan a QR code directly from a magazine, billboard or business card, " Carr continues," As more businesses look to leverage the power of mobile advertising, our goal is to provide effective tools such as r-Glue technology to drive higher levels of customer engagement and return on investment."
Sticky-Mobile, available at http://sticky-mobile.appspot.com, is a powerful marketing tool that helps make QR Codes stick. Sticky-Mobile allows marketers to generate QR codes without any programming knowledge. This helps marketers concentrate on getting the message out rather than messing with clumsy code.
Rich Interactives (www.rich-interactives.com) is a company based in Naperville, IL dedicated to changing and revolutionizing the way people, technology and the world interact. They provide innovative QR code solutions and marketing tools. Their proprietary r-Glue Technology is free to webmasters and developers. They also have other r-branded marketing tools that can help spread marketing messages and complement marketing campaigns such as r-Brochure, r-Manual, r-Audio, r-Videos, r-Admin and r-Publisher.

The Island of Lampedusa
An enchanting island with paradise beaches and sea-beds for relaxation in contact with wild and surprising nature
It is one of the most-frequented destinations of sun-worshippers, scuba-divers and nature lovers, and it is the last trace of Italian terrain before the African coast. Lampedusa, glorious, sun-bleached island south of Sicily, helps to create the Pelagian Archipelago ("islands of the high sea" in Greek etymology), along with neighboring island Linosa and the Scoglio (a tiny boulder of an island) known as Lampione. A borderland straddling two worlds, Lampedusa contains within it the environmental characteristics of two continents: it is, after all, only 70 miles from Tunisia, and 109 miles from Sicily.
The island's northern and western coast is rather high and inaccessibile, while its eastern and southeastern shores boast magnificent, sandy beaches. From the smallest and most hidden to the largest and most crowded, Lampedusa's beaches are numerous and welcoming. First off, the splendid coves of Cala Pisana and Cala Uccello open onto the glistening sea, while the Calas Spugna and Maluk lie on the island's east. Cala Greca, rather, is quite minuscule and covered in whiter-than-white sand and one of the secrets on this island is Cala Galera, accessible by passing through the island's characteristic low, rocky gullies on the water. See the beach on the so-called Dead Sea, where the water is super calm, and the same-named Grotto also remarkable are the spectacular and buzzing Cala Francese and the famous Guitgia Beach, the beach with the nearest hotels and accessible with public transport. From here you can also reach Cala Croce and the beach on Cala Madonna, along with Porto N'Tone, a tiny beach with fine, white sand, ideal for families with children.
On the island's southern side, Cala Pulcino and countless nearby grottoes can be found.
A 3 or 4-hour boat ride off Lampedusa is the best way to appreciate the beauty of its beaches, coves and tiny harbors. The sea's clarity and the brilliant seafloor, abundant with flora and fauna, thrill scuba-divers and snorkelers, who can choose from a wide array of diving spots, both day and night. A rather easy immersion is that in search of the underwater statue Madonna del Mare, 46 feet deep and surrounded by burrows for octopus and sargo fish. Their neighbors include dentex, groupers and more sargoes that make their home around this boulder that resembles a large panettone (the Milanese Christmas sweet). To swim through the expanse of green Neptune Grass, it is necessary to make a pit-stop at Punta Parrino, the point protecting the rest of the island from the waves and wind. An underwater excursion at Taccio Vecchio is also rather moving for the fact that you can see the homonymous grotto and plenty of parrotfish! In the same zone lies Punta Cappellone, inhabited by tuna, sargo, dentex, grouper and greater amberjack meanwhile, the eastern shallows host superb exemplars of the loggerhead sea turtle that you can witness yourself, tide-permitting. The north, rather, is the site for lobster, dentex, rockfish and grouper burrows, and where sperm whales can be sighted in April. If you are more of a land lover, you can walk the trails that run up to the island's foremost three peaks: Monte Rosso, featuring a cultivated crater, Monte Nero and Monte Vulcano.
Visit Rabbit Island (Isola dei Conigli), one of the prettiest beaches in all the Med zone the Island is protected, given its loggerhead sea turtle population that lays its eggs here. This work of nature is absolutely captivating, and can be reached even by non-swimmers – it is only 328 feet from the Lampedusa coast, over a stretch of water just a little over 3 m deep. Attempt to get to the other side of Rabbit Island if you want to spot its submerged natural arch, colonized by orange madrepores, colorful sponges, red shrimp, and rockfish and moray eel burrows. During the hottest nights of the summer, make an effort to attend the many celebrations happening on the island's beaches, including bonfires, spaghetti cookouts and barbecues, and musical performances. Taste the fish cous cous, a mix of African and Sicilian flavors in Lampedusa's version the locals add shrimp, lobster and seafood, and accompany it with delicious chilled white wines.

For these of you who are involved about your privateness and don't desire some other users who have entry to your pc to know what websites you've been visiting on-line, need to know easy methods to utterly erase web historical past. Among literature 's many genres are some designed, in complete or partly, purely for leisure. Limericks , for instance, use verse in a strict, predictable rhyme and rhythm to create humour and to amuse an audience of listeners or readers. Interactive books equivalent to " choose your own journey " can make literary entertainment more participatory. Video games are played for entertainment—typically purely for recreation, sometimes for achievement or reward as effectively. They are often played alone, in teams, or online; by amateurs or by professionals. The players could have an audience of non-players, equivalent to when individuals are entertained by watching a chess championship Then again, players in a game might constitute their very own viewers as they take their flip to play. Usually, a part of the leisure for youngsters playing a recreation is deciding who is a part of their viewers and who's a player.
Dances may be carried out solo (1, four); in pairs, (2, 3); in teams, (5, 6, 7); or by massed performers (10). They is perhaps improvised (four, 8) or extremely choreographed (1, 2, 5, 10); spontaneous for private leisure, (corresponding to when kids begin dancing for themselves); a non-public viewers, (four); a paying viewers (2); a world viewers (10); or an audience thinking about a particular dance style (three, 5). They is perhaps part of a celebration, equivalent to a wedding or New Year (6, 8); or a cultural ritual with a specific objective, reminiscent of a dance by warriors like a haka (7). Some dances, reminiscent of traditional dance in 1 and ballet in 2, need a really excessive stage of skill and training; others, such as the can-can , require a really excessive degree of energy and physical fitness. Entertaining the viewers is a traditional a part of dance but its physicality typically additionally produces pleasure for the dancers themselves (9).
One of the penalties of the event of the leisure trade has been the creation of latest sorts of employment Whereas jobs equivalent to writer , musician and composer exist as they at all times have, people doing this work are more likely to be employed by a company fairly than a patron as they once would have been. New jobs have appeared, akin to gaffer or special effects supervisor within the movie industry, and attendants in an amusement park. Films and video games, for example, although they use newer media, continue to tell tales, present drama, and play music. In fact that does not make any sense in any respect. As a result of the implication is you're tremendous focused on video games but you had been simply unwilling to purchase a console. I mean, I'm certain there have been individuals like that, but when they are so fascinated that they want to pay $60 or $70 for a front-line title, it's laborious for me to believe they have been unwilling to spend $250 on a console to have the ability to do it ever of their life.

Actor | Director | Producer | Writer
Alfredo James Pacino (born April 25, 1940) is an American actor and filmmaker. In a career spanning over five decades, he has received many awards and nominations, including an Academy Award, two Tony Awards, and two Primetime Emmy Awards. He is one of the few performers to have received the Triple Crown of Acting. He has also been honored with the AFI Life Achievement Award, the Cecil B. DeMille Award, and the National Medal of Arts.
A method actor and former student of the HB Studio and the Actors Studio, where he was taught by Charlie Laughton and Lee Strasberg, Pacino's film debut came at the age of 29 with a minor role in Me, Natalie (1969). He gained favorable notice for his first lead role as a heroin addict in The Panic in Needle Park (1971). Wide acclaim and recognition came with his breakthrough role as Michael Corleone in Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather (1972), for which he received his first Oscar nomination, and he would reprise the role in the sequels The Godfather Part II (1974) and The Godfather Part III (1990).
His portrayal of Michael Corleone is regarded as one of the greatest in film history. Pacino received nominations for the Academy Award for Best Actor for Serpico (1973), The Godfather Part II, Dog Day Afternoon (1975), and ...And Justice for All (1979), ultimately winning it for playing a blind military veteran in Scent of a Woman (1992). For his performances in The Godfather, Dick Tracy (1990), Glengarry Glen Ross (1992), and The Irishman (2019), he earned Best Supporting Actor Oscar nominations.
Other notable portrayals include Tony Montana in Scarface (1983), Carlito Brigante in Carlito's Way (1993), Benjamin Ruggiero in Donnie Brasco (1997), and Lowell Bergman in The Insider (1999). He has also starred in the thrillers Heat (1995), The Devil's Advocate (1997), Insomnia (2002), and appeared in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019). On television, Pacino has acted in several productions for HBO, including Angels in America (2003) and the Jack Kevorkian biopic You Don't Know Jack (2010), winning a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Miniseries or a Movie for each. Pacino currently stars in the Amazon Video web television series Hunters (2020–present).
He has also had an extensive career on stage. He is a two-time Tony Award winner, in 1969 and 1977, for his performances in Does a Tiger Wear a Necktie? and The Basic Training of Pavlo Hummel. Pacino made his filmmaking debut with Looking for Richard (1996), directing and starring in this documentary about Richard III; Pacino had played the lead role on stage in 1977. He has also acted as Shylock in a 2004 feature film adaptation and 2010 stage production of The Merchant of Venice. Pacino directed and starred in Chinese Coffee (2000), Wilde Salomé (2011), and Salomé (2013). Since 1994, he has been the joint president of the Actors Studio.

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Airstream Interstate 24X Motorhome Recalls
Based on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter light commercial van, which features a pretty abysmal quality record, the Interstate 24X motorhome has been recalled over an oversight of the Jackson Center-based manufacturer. Airstream became aware of the concern we'll cover in this article on November 29th, after a galley cabinet fell off the wall.
Airstream promptly ran a report dating back to the beginning of production, which revealed a few other instances of galley cabinet separation. The Safety Committee discussed this problem, determining that further information and investigation are needed. Fast forward to December 13th, and the Safety Committee finally decided on a recall.
On the upside for both Airstream and Interstate 24X owners, the Ohio-based manufacturer isn't aware of injuries caused by this defect. On certain 2022 to 2023 model year vehicles, the fasteners holding the cabinet in place may fail in transit, allowing the cabinet to separate from the wall.
The originally specified fasteners were not adequate to support the cabinet in place, notes Airstream in the document attached below. The overhead galley cabinet is referred to as part number 969472 in the recall report.
Airstream highlights that it had corrected the condition in production by installing additional fasteners. Motorhomes produced after December 12th, 2022 feature a properly secured overhead galley cabinet. No fewer than 200 examples of the Interstate 24X are called back, motorhomes with build dates ranging from April 12th, 2021 through December 8th, 2022.
Both owners and dealers will be informed of this recall on February 13th, 2022. As expected, dealers will be instructed to secure the overhead galley cabinet to the motorhome's wall with additional screw-type fasteners.
Currently listed by Airstream for the 2023 model year, the Interstate 24X isn't cheap. $246,351 is the standard configuration's price, which is considerably more than the Sprinter on which it's based.
The 3500 EXT 4×4 with a 3.0-liter turbo diesel V6 engine, to be more precise, which promises 188 horsepower and 325 pound-foot (441 Nm) of torque. A seven-speed transmission is tasked with sending those resources to the wheels. On the highway, prospective customers can expect 16 to 18 miles per gallon (14.7 to 13 liters per 100 kilometers) according to Airstream.
The Interstate 24X is designated 24 because it measures 24 feet and 6 inches (nearly 7.5 meters) fore to aft. Gifted with a 3.92:1 axle ratio, the diesel-powered motorhome comes with a tow package that enables a towing capacity of 5,000 pounds (2,268 kilograms). To be frank, the Interstate 24X comes with all the bells and whistles imaginable in such a vehicle, including a 400-watt solar power system with two exterior ports.
Covered by three-year Airstream and Mercedes-Benz warranties, the Interstate 24X flaunts 23 gallons (87 liters) of fresh water, a refrigerator and a freezer, a two-burner cooktop, a 2.5-kW generator, a 5G-ready antenna, a diesel-fired furnace, hot water, as well as 13,500-BTU air con.

Q: Probability of first collision with replacement Suppose I have a bag of N balls, each labeled with a distinct integer. The experiment starts when I draw a ball from the bag, record its label, and then return the ball back to the bag. I repeat this step until I draw a ball that I have already drawn before. Let X be the number of balls I drew in the experiment. Let P be the probability distribution of X.
Is there a name to this probability function P?
Is there a closed form for P?
Actually, I would be satisfied if there is a closed form for E[X] and Var[X].
Please help.

A: $P(X)=(X-1)N^{1-X}\frac{(N-1)!}{(N+1-X)!}$, for $X=2,3,\ldots N+1$.

A: There's no closed form for this expectation. However, you can get good approximations. One common way to do this is with generating functions. Herb Wilf's book is an excellent reference.
As noted, the probability that the first collision occurs on the $n$th draw with  $m$ balls is $p_n=d_{n-1}\frac{n-1}m$, where $d_n=\frac{m!}{m^n (m-n)!}$. Consider the ordinary generating function $D(x)=\sum_{n=0}^{m}d_nx^n$. Then the expected number of draws to get a collision would be $\langle p\rangle=\sum_{n=1}^{m+1} n\cdot p_n$ or, in terms of the generating function,
$\langle p\rangle=\frac{d^2}{dx^2}(xD(x))|_{x=1}$.
The generating function $D(x)$ is not summable. However, its exponential counterpart is: $E(x)=\sum_{n=0}^{m}\frac{d_n}{ n!}x^n=(1+x/m)^m$. The ordinary and exponential generating functions are related by the Laplace transform, $D(x)=\frac 1x\int_0^\infty e^{-t/x}E(t)dt$. Differentiating under the integral twice  and then evaluating at $x=1$, we get $\langle p\rangle=\frac 1m\int_0^\infty e^{-t}(t^2-2t)(1+t/m)^mdt$. The dominant part in this integral comes from the $t^2$  term. So, $\langle p\rangle\approx\frac 1m\int_0^\infty e^{-t}t^2(1+t/m)^m dt$, and substituting $u=t/m$, we get $\langle p\rangle\approx m^2\int_0^\infty e^{m(-u+\log(1+u))}u^2 du$. This integral can be nicely approximated with Laplace's method, where the exponent $-u+\log(1+u)$ is replaced with its second order Taylor series about its maximum (at $u=0$), which turns out to be just $-u^2/2$. So, $\langle p\rangle\approx m^2\int_0^\infty e^{-u^2 m/2}u^2du=\sqrt{{\pi m}/2}$.
If you need greater accuracy or if you want to consider higher moments of the distribution, you can always consider the other terms in the first integral representation of $\langle p\rangle$ and higher order terms in the Laplace's method. Another avenue to analyze this expectation, as suggested in the wikipedia article on the birthday problem, is to learn about the Ramanujan $Q$-function.

. Legacy has set a September 20th release date for Miles Davis Quintet - Live In Europe 1967: The Bootleg Series Vol. 1 will be the launch of new Miles Davis Series offering rare and previously unreleased live recordings from around the world.
The explosive transformation of Miles Davis' "second great Quintet" with Wayne Shorter (tenor sax), Herbie Hancock (piano), Ron Carter (bass), and Tony Williams (drums) is laid bare on Miles Davis Quintet - Live In Europe 1967: The Bootleg Series Vol. 1.
Culled from original state-owned television and radio sources in Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, and Sweden, the program spans five northern European festival performances over the course of nine days in October-November 1967.
On the same date, a single-disc overview of the box set will be released. Miles Davis Quintet – Live In Europe 1967: Best Of The Bootleg Vol. 1 will feature nine tracks from the box set.
Miles' Quintet lineup of 1965 to '68 is acknowledged as one of the high reference points in 20th century jazz, and its influence continues to reverberate in small group jazz today. Their Columbia recordings represent a litany of jazz at its best – E.S.P. (1965), Miles Smiles (1966), Sorcerer (1967), Nefertiti (1967), Miles In the Sky (1968), and Filles De Kilimanjaro (1968). But it was the quintet's live performances, as they evolved into Miles' ideal of a "leaderless" jamming ensemble, that truly immortalized them.
The European tour dates brought the Quintet to Antwerp, Belgium (October 28th); Stockholm, Sweden (October 31st); Copenhagen, Denmark (November 2nd); Paris, France (November 6th); and Karlsruhe, Germany (November 7th). The tour was organized and promoted by Newport Jazz Festival impresario George Wein and also starred Sarah Vaughan, the Archie Shepp Quintet (with Roswell Rudd, Grachan Moncur III, Jimmy Garrison, and Beaver Harris), the Thelonious Monk Quartet (with Charlie Rouse), the Gary Burton Quartet (with Larry Coryell, Steve Swallow, and Bobby Moses), and Wein's own Newport All-Stars with Buddy Tate.
The paradox of Miles Davis Quintet – Live In Europe 1967: The Bootleg Series Vol. 1 is the fact that all five concerts were recorded by state-owned radio and television outlets – a case of European bureaucracies preserving our American jazz heritage. Of the audio performances on CD, Belgium (an hour-plus set), Denmark and France are all full-length concert sets that are now seeing their first authorized release(s). Denmark is the rarest of the three, never released commercially (not even as a bootleg) so it is a particularly valuable 50 minutes of music.
The Paris concert is the longest of the shows in this collection, running 90 minutes across CD Two and CD Three. It includes the very rare versions of "Agitation" and "Footprints" which are not found on the unauthorized bootlegs that have circulated up until now.
The DVD contained in Miles Davis Quintet – Live In Europe 1967: The Bootleg Series Vol. 1 presents two concert sets by the Quintet, one from Stockholm on October 31st, and one from Karlsruhe, Germany on November 7th (although they are sequenced in reverse chronological order). This is the only known video documentation of the "second great Quintet" from the 1965 to '68 period. The only previous authorized release of this video was as a bonus disc on the commemorative 70-CD + DVD Complete Miles Davis Columbia Album Collection, released in 2009 on Columbia/Legacy.
The enthusiastic reception for the Miles Davis Quintet is partly credited to George Wein's belief that Europe could support a wide-ranging program of jazz festivals. Since the inception of Newport in 1954, Wein worked towards that goal in Europe, which took the better part of a decade to organize. These October-November 1967 festival dates were only the second or third season of Wein's European programs.
Putting Miles Davis Quintet – Live In Europe 1967: The Bootleg Series Vol. 1 into historical perspective are the illuminating liner notes by Ashley Kahn, author of Kind of Blue: The Making of the Miles Davis Masterpiece (DaCapo Press, 2000). In addition to serving as a contributor to National Public Radio and teaching music history and journalism at New York University, Kahn is also the author of A Love Supreme: The Making of John Coltrane's Masterpiece (Viking, 2002), and The House That Trane Built: The Story of Impulse Records (Norton, 2007).

Mets phenom Harvey to start All-Star game

AP | AP
NEW YORK — The first and last pitch of the All-Star game could well be "New York, New York."
Young ace Matt Harvey of the Mets will start for the National League on his home mound. Mariano Rivera, in his final season, may well finish for the AL.
"Having the opportunity to take the ball is something I'll never forget," Harvey said Monday.
On July 16 last year, Harvey was pitching for Triple-A Buffalo against Toledo before 5,885 fans at Coca-Cola Field. On Tuesday night, he'll be starting against Detroit's Max Scherzer in front of a sellout crowd at Citi Field and a worldwide television audience.
At 24, Harvey is the youngest All-Star starting pitcher since the Mets' Dwight Gooden in 1988, when he was 23. Harvey will be the first pitcher from the host team to start an All-Star game since Houston's Roger Clemens in 2004 and just the 11th overall.
"It really wouldn't have mattered what city we were playing in with the year that he's had, the impressive numbers that he's put up," said San Francisco's Bruce Bochy," the NL manager. "He would have been the starting pitcher."
Harvey, 7-2 with a 2.35 ERA and an NL-high 147 strikeouts, has made 29 major league starts — the fewest for an All-Star starter since Hideo Nomo with 13 in 1995. Big league hitters can't stop talking about his heater.
His fastball velocity of 95.2 mph is 0.1 mph behind Washington's Stephen Strasburg, the major league leader this year, according to fangraphs.com.
"He's a power guy that attacks hitters," said Minnesota catcher Joe Mauer, a two-time AL batting champion. "He has four above-average pitches."
Harvey throws the hardest slider and curve in the majors, and he ranks second in swinging strikes at 12.7 percent, just behind Texas' Yu Darvish (13.3) and ahead of Scherzer (12.3).
"I don't even know what he's throwing. He throws everything," Washington's Bryce Harper said.
Scherzer, 28, had the most dominant first half in a quarter-century, in terms of wins. His 13-0 record before Saturday's loss to Texas was the most wins in a perfect start since Clemens won his first 14 decisions in 1986.
Detroit's Justin Verlander was the AL starter and loser last year. Scherzer (13-1, 3.10 ERA) joins him to become the first pitchers from the same club to start consecutive All-Star games since Arizona's Randy Johnson (2000-01) and Curt Schilling (2002).
"We go throughout the season and we see guys who absolutely deal, and for skipper to give me the nod over those guys just means so much to me," Scherzer said as he sat next to Tigers manager Jim Leyland, who will pilot the American League squad.
Rivera, at 43 the oldest All-Star this year, sat in Jackie Robinson Rotunda in front of a large blue sculpture of Robinson's "42" — fitting given that the number was retired for all teams in 1997 on the 50th anniversary of the day Robinson broke baseball's color barrier. Rivera, grandfathered in, will be the last major leaguer to have that number on his back.
With 30 saves in 32 chances and a 1.83 ERA in his farewell season for the New York Yankees, Rivera is still the best.
"I think it would be probably the most beautiful touch in the world if we could somehow get a lead on the National League and play the ninth inning with the greatest closer of all-time coming out of the bullpen," Leyland said.

"You can rest assured, he will be on the mound at some point and you will see him pitch, whether it be to a hitter, an inning," Leyland said. "You will see No. 42 pitch."
A 13-time All-Star, still slender but his short-cropped hair receded, Rivera has thrown eight scoreless innings in All-Star games and has a record four saves.
"It's not emotional yet," he said. "Now, that could change by tomorrow."

Jihadists' Relatives Protest in Berlin, Demand Germany Bring Daesh Children Home

After the terrorist group's defeat in Syria and Iraq, returning European jihadists, Daesh wives, and children have become a problem that many countries are struggling tackle. Although Germany's government has already brought back several children of German Daesh* followers from Iraq, many minors still remain in camps in Syria.
Relatives and family members of Daesh* fighters and their wives have protested against the Foreign Ministry in Berlin, demanding that children and wives of jihadists from Germany should be repatriated. Between 20 and 50 protesters reportedly gathered in front of the Foreign Ministry building holding banners with Daesh children's names, photos, and some info about them. Other placards read "Children are not responsible" and "Innocent German children will die and the state is just watching".
According to one of the protesters, cited by the website VICE, the German government does not want to take back these children, who are trapped with their mothers in detention camps in Syria.
"I want my grandchildren to leave Syria and come to Hamburg, to live normally, to go to the nursery, to be protected, to be able to hug them, to have food, to be warm, and to love them", one protester, Intessar Aataba, whose three-year-old and one-year-old grandchildren remain in Syria, told the news agency AFP.
The organiser of the demonstration, Danisch Farooqi, whose wife fled to the Daesh strongholds in Syria with their daughter and new husband, told the outlet that more than 200 foreign children had already died in such camps, which have poor hygienic conditions and lack food.
"Heiko Maas [foreign minister] will have blood on his hands. The blood of German children!" he chanted in front of the Foreign Ministry.
At least 59 children of German Daesh fighters were still in Syria in March, the Interior Ministry revealed, amid ongoing debate about how to deal with German citizens who had joined Daesh. While Germany's government was in agreement that citizens with dual nationality should be deprived of their German passports under certain conditions if they become members of terrorist groups, some opposition parties have accused the government of trying to avoid the responsibility to put suspected Daesh members on trial.

With discussions still ongoing, the country's government has already brought back several children of German Daesh* followers from Iraq, placing them with relatives. Authorities pledged to bring these children, sometimes referred to as "cubs of the caliphate", to their parents' home country more than a year ago. Speaking about such children, the Foreign Ministry indicated that it is aware that German nationals are being detained in the north of the country, but that it has no direct consular access to them as there is currently no German embassy in Syria.
The repatriation of Jihadists and their families remains a sensitive and politically heated topic in the West. The United States earlier recommended that each country take charge of its own jihadists and judge them on its territory, whereas France, for instance, wants the perpetrators to be judged on the spot. Germany does not seem eager to see them back home, as the country's Justice Ministry recently suggested stripping jihadists of their citizenship.

In Which the Pirate Knits On.
There are two occasions when it is necessary for me to work on a traveling sock at home - turning the heel and grafting the toe. Now that the heel is turned on this one, it's gone back in the bag to await the next bit of travel - which is Thursday, so it won't have to wait too long. I think I'm going to finish this pair before going back and knitting the second Pomatomus. Then I have so many ideas and plans for socks... good thing I have a whole set of aluminum sock needles in addition to these trusty bamboo size 1s!
This scarf, on the other hand, is always going to be a project which I'll only work on at home. The further I get, the faster and easier it goes... but I wouldn't want to mess this one up when I'm not in a place that I could just put it down and calmly walk away from it. I still don't know how long to make it, or how to wear it, but I like how it looks so far!

Q&A | June 2011
Stay alert to patients' suicide risk
A recent Sentinel Event Alert aims to reduce suicide risk in hospitalized patients.
Between 2004 and 2010, one of the five sentinel events most frequently reported to The Joint Commission was inpatient suicide.
Many of those suicides occurred in psychiatric facilities, but 14% took place in non-behavioral health units of general hospitals and 8% happened in emergency departments, according to the database of voluntary reports. While psychiatric providers are well aware of the risk of suicide among their patients, other hospital departments are not specifically designed to prevent suicides, and their staff members, including hospitalists, typically have many other priorities on their minds.
Robert Wise, MD
That's why The Joint Commission recently provided a reminder, through a Sentinel Event Alert on preventing suicide in medical/surgical units and the emergency department. The alert, available online, lists suicide risk factors and reduction strategies and encourages hospitals to educate staff about this issue.
ACP Hospitalist recently spoke with Robert Wise, MD, medical advisor to the division of healthcare quality evaluation at The Joint Commission, about the alert and what hospitalists can do to reduce the risk of suicide for their patients.
Q: What motivated this alert?
A: This is the second alert we have put out. The first one really dealt broadly with inpatient suicides, most of those occurring in psychiatric hospitals. In follow-up discussions and also in looking at our sentinel event database, we saw that a number of these suicides were occurring outside of psychiatric units, specifically in medical/surgical units and in the emergency department. The prevention of a suicide in a med/surg unit is very different than a suicide in a psychiatric unit, so it felt important to differentiate those differences to hopefully alert people to the need and the problems.
Q: Is the risk of suicide under-recognized in med/surg units currently?
A: The issue is that med/surg units are so focused on treatment of life-threatening medical situations. Suicide prevention is often not on their minds as a top priority. If you go on a psychiatric unit, somebody with congestive heart failure may be under-recognized; it's just not what that staff is most tuned into. This [alert] really helps to encourage clinicians to become more intentional about this issue. If you think about the possibility, if you suspect the problem, you're more likely to see it.
Q: What are common indicators of suicide risk on a medical unit?
A: Those are the kinds of issues that are talked about in the alert. If somebody has an overdose or somebody is in a single-car accident, those in fact may be suicide attempts. You're starting with an active psychiatric disease that results in a medical problem. In those types of situations, in an orthopedic unit or an ICU, one should consider that the etiology was in fact a suicide attempt.
Q: What's the other risk type?
A: The kinds of [medical problems] that have a negative or depressing effect on a person's state of mind. These conditions can be seen as potential risk factors. You need to ask yourself the question, 'How is this medical problem impacting or likely to impact this person?' If it is a kind of problem that a person will have trouble adjusting to, either because it's gone on for so long, it's wearing them out emotionally, or because they are losing substantial function—it could be intellectually, it could be physically—you should consider that person possibly at risk. For instance, somebody who is in chronic pain where there is no relief—that will have a debilitating impact on the person's emotional state. Eventually they feel exhausted and think about giving up. Or somebody who has had a major heart attack or a stroke after they've been very healthy—it appears to them that their life is forever going to be different in a negative way.
Q: What can physicians do?
A: Not only would you want the physician to consider the impact, but it's something that should also be told to the nurses, to be aware of the consequences of such a situation. Are they seeing any behaviors that would make them concerned? It might be more obvious to the nurse who's going to be around the patient a great deal of time. The doctor's going to spend less time with the patient. One of the things the physician can do is alert the nurses to keep their eyes open to worrisome behavior or thoughts.
Q: What are the barriers to focusing on suicide on medical units?
A: Life is so complicated and busy on a medical surgical unit. The issue is how to give needed training, how to get people to include suicidality into their thinking about certain patients. A number of years ago, The Joint Commission started to talk about the issues of awareness of pain in patients. That type of thinking is now well integrated into the ongoing assessment of patients. It's part of the way in which patients are assessed and re-evaluated.
Essentially, you have to help people understand the importance of this type of patient awareness. One place to start is to find out if in fact there have been suicides on the medical units. If staff members are aware that this problem has occurred, that makes it more real to them, as an issue that they must pay attention to. If there's never been a suicide in that hospital, it would be much harder to get people's attention. Talk to the intensivists or the people in the cardiac care units or cancer units or places where you would expect to see [at-risk patients].
Q: What training about suicide risk is necessary for medical staff?
A: The training is one of detection and having a high index of suspicion. It's not to prevent the act. The level of training should get the staff to the point where the thought comes up, 'I have to be a little bit more concerned about the risk to this person,' which would then increase the likelihood of obtaining a psychiatric consultation. You would overwhelm the staff by saying they not only have to identify suicidal patients, but also intervene, by talking with the person or getting the family involved. You really only have to be able to identify the possibility to bring in somebody with those particular skills to work with the person or to decide whether it's a serious issue or not.
Q: Any other advice for hospitalists about this issue?
A: Again, it is increasing the clinician's index of suspicion. Somebody who has had a serious stroke or heart attack or the initial diagnosis of cancer—probably if they're going to commit suicide, they will not commit suicide in the hospital. It's something that they are at risk for when they leave the hospital. The advice would be when you're dealing with a patient who's had a potentially life-changing physical problem, or is having an ongoing problem that appears to be wearing them down—specifically things such as chronic pain or cancer—it's worthwhile to at least be asking the question of 'How is the person adjusting? How are they handling it?' Then an appropriate referral can be made.

Why Obama's use of the term ISIL instead of ISIS is actually really important
ISIL. ISIS. IS. DAISH. You have probably heard each one of those acronyms at least once over the last several months as the media and politicians attempt to determine the best way to refer to the terror group that declared a caliphate spanning Syria and Iraq.
IS simply stands for the Islamic State, while ISIS stands for the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. ISIL is the acronym for the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, which seems remarkably similar to ISIS. The differentiation between the word 'Syria' and the word 'Levant' is actually quite significant, however, given the usage of the term by President Obama and his administration.
"ISIS and ISIL. The President is making a big deal out of this is ISIL, right? The Administration wants to call it ISIL," Glenn said on radio this morning. "Stu, what's the difference between ISIS and ISIL?"
"Interesting fact about the Levant," Stu responded. "[It] encompasses parts of Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, and a place called Israel."
Quartz has more on the distinction:
The group's name in Arabic is al dawla al islamiyye f'il iraq w'al sham. The last word, sham, is the problematic one. It is used, in the phrase bilad al sham, to refer variously to: the contemporary Levant, a somewhat amorphous region sometimes understood to include Iraq, and sometimes not; to the historical region called al sham in classical Arabic but known to the ancient Greeks and other civilizations as "Syria" or a variant thereof, which is roughly contiguous with the Levant; and to a Syrian nationalist dream of a "Greater Syria," a region of similar extent that includes Iraq. Sham is also a contemporary nickname for Damascus, the Syrian capital; but modern-day Syria is called suriya.
At Quartz we've chosen to render sham as "Levant" over "Syria," on the grounds that while scholars of Middle Eastern history might recognize "Syria" to have a broader meaning, most of our readers will take it to mean modern-day Syria, i.e., suriya, not sham. And then, if you're using "Levant," you might as well as abbreviate it logically—so, ISIL.
"So the president has the most powerful microphone on the planet," Glenn said. "The slightest thing from the president reverberates… We have been joking ISIS, ISIL, what's the difference. You say tomato; I say tomato. It makes a big difference because of this: ISIL includes Levant, which includes the area we like to call Israel."
Obama has come under fire for underestimating the threat of this "jayvee team" wreaking havoc across the Middle East and threatening the western way of life, and yet he continuously refers to them as ISIL.
"They changed their name because they started saying, 'We are bigger than this. We are bigger than Iraq and Syria. We are Iraq, Syria, and Levant,'" Glenn said of the terror group. "I don't know what that means, but, believe me, the President does… What that means is: They have designs that go from Iran through Egypt. There is no Israel."
"So by the President saying 'this is ISIL,' he is sending the message: I know who you are. I know what lands you are planning to take," he concluded. "The President knows who these guys are. [But] he's not telling you who they are. He's trying to downplay that they are putting together a caliphate from Egypt to Iran. It does not include Israel. Maybe we should have a real frank conversation about what's really going on."

On the off-chance anyone was looking for recommendations, I'd have to say that Tim Burton's Beetlejuice (1988) is pretty much the perfect Halloween movie… macabre, creepy, bawdy, colourful, silly, sweet, sharp, laugh-out-loud funny, and wholly unique. It's also the movie that I credit with inspiring my perennial obsession/appreciation for goth-girls, thanks to its "strange and unusual" teen heroine, played by a winsome Winona Ryder.
The main protagonists are an "adorkable" couple of small-town squares (Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis), who have a tragic car accident during their "staycation" supply run, and are doomed to haunt their former home, watching in horror as a big-city family with arty uptown tastes (Catherine O'Hara, Jeffrey Jones, and Ryder) move in and renovate/wreck-up their rustic refuge. In desperation, they seek the assistance of a sleazy, sweary "bio-exorcist" named 'Betelgeuse' (Michael Keaton) to drive the interlopers away… little realising the carnage that will ensue when they release this gross, garish ghoul from his coffin.
Although Keaton's show-stopping turn as the eponymous, ad-libbing antagonist is the main attraction here (along with the spooky visuals), Baldwin and Davis are very winning as the lamented Maitlands, while O'Hara and Jones get some great scenes as the dysfunctional Deetzes, along with their ever-present interior designer 'Otho' (Glenn Shadix)… and, of course, Ryder is super-cute/crush-worthy as the despairing Lydia, who'd rather die and spend eternity with the homely ghosts, than live with her own parents!
Although I'd love the movie regardless of what anyone else thought of it, I was delighted to discover that this off-beat horror-comedy was actually a big success (both commercially and critically) when it was first released, bringing in over $70 million at the box office (from a budget of $15 million), and scoring the Academy Award for Best Makeup, as well as three Saturn Awards (Best Horror Film, Best Makeup, and Best Supporting Actress for Sylvia Sidney, who plays the Maitlands' scornful case worker in the depressingly-bureaucratic underworld). There was also a BAFTA nomination for Best Visual Effects, which I think it should won, because it still looks pretty eye-popping today, despite the tight budget… and I have to say, I much prefer the stop-motion animation that's used here to the soulless CGI that's employed in so many modern movies.
Sadly, the movie's prosperity/popularity isn't reflected in its DVD presentation… I mean, the film itself looks/sounds great, but there aren't really any extra features worth mentioning… and all the studio could be bothered to scrape together for the "special" 20th Anniversary edition was a couple episodes of the spin-off cartoon series! Tch!
P.S. Apparently when Ryder appeared on Late Night with Seth Meyers back in August, she claimed that she'd soon be reprising her role in a long-awaited sequel… while Keaton and Burton are also rumoured to be returning to their respective posts. Hurrah?

NEW DELHI: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has tossed its hat in the ring for the taking on of Air India's iconic tower at Nariman Point in Mumbai.
The central financial institution is learnt to have offered 10 years' rent apartment as advance cost in keeping with a most sensible reliable source. "The RBI wants to take the whole development and is prepared to provide rent rentals for 10 years in combination as advance cost in advance," he stated.
In reaction to a query on the construction, the RBI declined to comment. Earlier, state-controlled LIC and Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT) had expressed interest to procure the signature development with the latter in a position to shell out about Rs 1,300 crore. A bit of Air India workers has, on the other hand, vehemently adversarial the transfer to sell the development and has sought to rethink the verdict. "We are already producing Rs 130 crore yearly from the development and will generate Rs 400-500 crore a yr. There is huge scope for advertising how it happens in the United States and different nations," a senior govt stated.
The nationwide service had in December floated a tender to sell its 23-storey tower as a part of a bigger asset-monetisation plan and allowed only government entities to take part in the bidding for obtaining leasehold rights on "as is, where is" basis.
"It does no longer make sense to sell the development. If correctly controlled, the development can earn in just a few years what potential consumers have offered," the person quoted earlier stated.
The government had mooted the plan to sell the Nariman Point development after its plan to sell 74% stake in the service proved a moist squib with no private investor turning up for the offer.
