De Fortuna arena is een voetbalstadion in de Tsjechische hoofdstad Praag. In het stadion worden thuiswedstrijden gespeeld van de voetbalclub SK Slavia Praag en van het Tsjechisch nationaal voetbalelftal. Het stadion, met een capaciteit van 20.800 toeschouwers, staat in de wijk Vršovice.

Geschiedenis
Het oorspronkelijke Stadion Eden werd gebouwd aan het begin van de jaren '50 van de 20e eeuw. De eerste wedstrijd in dit stadion, met een capaciteit van 50.000 toeschouwers, vond plaats op 27 september 1953. In de jaren zeventig werd het duidelijk dat Stadion Eden niet genoeg comfort bood voor de bezoekers en men begon plannen te maken voor een nieuw stadion op dezelfde locatie. Onder het communistische regime duurde het maken van de plannen echter lang, en in het uiteindelijke plan zou er pas in 1990 aan de bouw begonnen worden. Voor deze reden was Slavia Praag een jaar eerder tijdelijk verhuisd naar stadion Ďolíček, de thuisbasis van FC Bohemians 1905 Praag. De val van het communisme zorgde voor een nieuw uitstel van de bouw. In de tussentijd verhuisde Slavia opnieuw, ditmaal naar het Stadion Evžena Rošického. Voordeel was de grote capaciteit van dit stadion, nadeel het weinige comfort en de slechte bereikbaarheid.

Aan het begin van 1990 werd de gehele bouw geannuleerd en Slavia verhuisde terug naar Stadion Eden. Een nieuwe tijdelijke oosttribune werd gebouwd, aangezien de oorspronkelijke oosttribune al was gesloopt. Toch was duidelijk dat het stadion uit de tijd was en dat er een nieuw stadion moest komen. Verschillende plannen werden gemaakt maar er was niet genoeg geld voor de bouw. Vanaf 2000 voldeed Stadion Eden niet meer aan de eisen voor de Tsjechische competitie, waarna Slavia weer naar het impopulaire Stadion Evžena Rošického verhuisde.

Uiteindelijk presenteerde Slavia een plan voor een nieuw stadion. In december 2003 werd het oude Stadion Eden gesloopt en werd aangekondigd dat het nieuwe stadion op 19 oktober 2005 geopend zou worden. De bouw begon echter pas in oktober 2006. Ondanks het feit dat het stadion nog niet geheel gereed was, werd het geopend op 7 mei 2008 met een vriendschappelijke wedstrijd tegen Oxford University AFC.
Eind maart 2009 werd het stadion herdoopt tot de Synot Tip Arena. Na het verdwijnen van Synot Tip als hoofdsponsor in 2012 werd de naam van het stadion opnieuw veranderd in de Eden Aréna. In 2018 kreeg het stadion opnieuw een andere naam, dit keer werd de naam veranderd in Sinobo Stadium. In de zomer 2022 volgde de volgende naamswijziging deze keer in Fortuna arena.

Interlands
Het Tsjechisch voetbalelftal speelt geregeld interlands in het Sinobo Stadium.

Q: Grouped Product: Price and product list not showing on template I've created a new grouped product and I've added 3 already created simple product in the associated product section.  I saved everything and go and view it on the website itself and there is no price next to the add cart button nor the included product list? Does anyone know of a fix for this.

A: *

*Make sure your associated products have positive inventory (qty > 0) and set In Stock = True

*Make sure the indexes are up to date (System / Index Management / Reindex all)

*Try it on default theme (in System / Configuration / Design set package = "base" and theme="default") - if this is working on default theme, then the problem is in your custom magento theme.

So, I've been trying to revive my slow cooker for our cool fall nights, but am having trouble expanding my repertoire of recipes. A few weeks ago, I bought ground turkey to try and make this slow cooker cheeseburger casserole, but it seemed like every morning that week was just too hectic for me to do the minimal prep required to get it started before work. With the expiration date looming, I had no choice but to throw all that ground turkey into a meatloaf. That's how this recipe was born! I didn't discover a new slow cooker meal, but I did devise something just as easy and even a little bit healthy, since I snuck a lot of finely-diced and shredded veggies into it too. I'm really trying to get more vegetables into Georgia's diet these days, and this succeeded in doing that, while still tasting very moist and just like a classic meatloaf. Success!
The only bad thing is that I took ZERO good pictures of it. You'll just have to trust me that this came out so tasty, and use for your evidence these snapshots of Georgia enjoying dipping hunks of the meatloaf in her favorite condiment — ketchup — which she calls sauce ("mama, I need more SAUCE!") I really think the far-off stare, eating straight ketchup with her fork, and treating her binky like a place setting will make this look even more appetizing for you. And yes, I put a red shirt over my child's regular clothing when she's eating ketchup.
What makes this toddler friendly?
It makes minimal use of that nutritional dud white bread, instead using some bread crumbs. I don't know about your kids, but mine gets PLENTY of refined carbs as it is.
It is good for practicing fork/spoon/knife skills, but is also very grab-able for hands that just want to go straight from plate to mouth!
The most obvious: it is prime dunking material, in ketchup, barbecue sauce, what have you.
Meatloaf is cool-weather food. It's filling, reminds you of weeknight dinners as a kid, and reheats beautifully for busy evenings after work and school.
Preheat the oven to 350F. In a large bowl, combine the turkey, breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup ketchup, egg, vegetables, and mustard. Mix well and season with salt and pepper.
Pack the mixture into a loaf pan. Combine the Worcestershire sauce and remaining ketchup and brush over the meatloaf.
For vegetables, I used green beans, sweet potatoes and zucchini/summer squash. You could use whatever you like or have on hand.
I hope you are all enjoying Autumn and getting excited about Halloween. We are getting into the spirit with festive drinks, decorating our house for trick-or-treaters, and visiting the playground a few more times before frost sets in.
Georgia is going to be Minnie Mouse for Halloween this year — how about you??
A few weeks ago, we went to the 1st birthday party of a close high school friend's baby girl. Her mom had made the most delicious dip for sliced apples, and adults and kids alike were gobbling it up. When I asked her for the recipe (as Georgia kept digging into it!), she said it had just three ingredients that sound gross when you list them out separately, but tasted perfect when combined together. They are cream cheese, caramel sauce and granola. Weird, right?
But just like she said, it comes together magically. Thanks, Judi!
I love how fast this is to make, and how easy it is to find these ingredients. It tastes like a caramel apple that you'd buy at the orchard after a full day of apple picking! And the best part is that, for $10 in ingredients, you can feed a gigantic crowd of people, because a little bit of this goes a LONG way when served alongside fruit and crackers. I had friends over Monday night and made it, and six of us polished off half the pan; my co-workers took care of the rest when I brought it to work today!.
You can buy any brand of cream cheese, granola or caramel sauce. I picked up Trader Joe's cream cheese and caramel and Bear Naked granola at the Roche Bros. downtown because TJ's didn't have any normal flavors of granola left. This can easily be made with a nut-free or gluten-free version if you so desire.
In a pie plate or large bowl, layer the whipped cream cheese, caramel sauce (softening for 1 minute in the microwave if necessary) and granola evenly and serve at room temperature with sliced apples, cut large enough to scoop out the dip. Enjoy with a dozen friends!
This pairs especially well with cheese on an appetizer spread. Just like that slightly odd New England tradition of eating slices of cheddar with apple pie, right? What I especially like about this is how it doesn't melt, congeal, separate, or otherwise morph into something inedible or gross-looking when left out at a party for a couple hours. You can also make it a day ahead, refrigerate, and it's ready to go as soon as you are.
See our recent apple picking adventures here, and stay tuned for an apple crisp recipe coming soon. And for another easy fall recipe, be sure to check out my brown sugar kielbasa in the slow cooker! It's perfect for Sundays spent watching the game with family and friends.
Happy Fall in New England! While I promise a few apple-centric recipes soon, for now I'm just going to share photos from our recent family trip to Shelburne Farm in Stow this past weekend.
All in all it was a fun day, and last winter produced such a great crop of fruit this year that there's plenty of time to get out there and get picking if you haven't already!
If you do go to Shelburne, here are my tips. Get there before 11 a.m. or expect a mob; know that there are only porta-potties; plan on having some of their food for lunch, since they have an outdoor snack stand with picnic tables and a live band for entertainment; and bring extra cash for the pony rides, hay ride and corn maze. Oddly, there were a ton of people "tailgating" in the parking lot when we got there and when we were leaving, which I did not realize was a thing. (Have you done that? If so, explain! We didn't get it).
The cowboy boots go everywhere. We found it to be noticeably cooler out west as compared to the city, so layers is probably a good idea. I love that there's no admission fee here and a peck of apples (10 pounds) — more than enough for a small family to eat and bake with — costs just $20, with a full bushel only $28. Another farm we loved to visit last year, Lookout Farm, is right in the town where Mark and I grew up, and it's another awesome choice for families, although much more expensive at $15 per person just for admission (and only kids under two are free!) They also have animals to pet, food, a playground area, and an adorable train that takes you to each part of the orchard. It was a great choice for a 14-month old who couldn't really walk up and down the rows of trees just yet!
It also pays to have a really tall person in your apple-picking gang.
Have a wonderful remainder of the week everyone, and stay tuned for two new apple recipes next week!

The Supreme Court decides the religious right asked it for too much
Home » NewsBlog » The Supreme Court decides the religious right asked it for too much
US Supreme Court Associate Justices Amy Coney Barrett, left, and Brett Kavanaugh arrive at the inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden at the US Capitol on January 20, 2021, in Washington, | Drew Angerer/Getty Images
Maine's vaccine mandate for health care workers survives a challenge from religious conservatives.
The Supreme Court handed down a brief order Friday evening — it is literally just one sentence long — denying relief to a group of Maine health care workers who object to the Covid-19 vaccine on religious grounds. This means that nearly all workers in health care facilities licensed by the state must be vaccinated in order to keep their jobs.
Yet, while this order, which is also accompanied by a one-paragraph concurring opinion by Justice Amy Coney Barrett and a longer dissent by Justice Neil Gorsuch, is quite brief, it is significant because it suggests that there may be some limit to the conservative majority's solicitude for religious conservatives.
Earlier in the pandemic, the Court handed down a pair of decisions that revolutionized its approach to religious liberty cases and granted churches and other houses of worship broad exemptions from public health orders intended to control the spread of Covid-19. The Court's Friday evening decision in Does v. Mills, by contrast, appears to have been decided on the narrowest possible grounds. Though it is a loss for the religious right, it is not an especially significant one.
Maine requires nearly all health care workers to be vaccinated against Covid-19. It argues that this requirement is necessary because those workers are unusually likely to interact with patients who are vulnerable to the disease, and because the state's health care system could potentially be disabled if too many health care workers are infected. The state does exempt a very narrow slice of health care workers, however: those who risk adverse health consequences if they are vaccinated, such as people with serious allergies to the vaccine.
The plaintiffs argued that religious objectors must be exempted from this requirement because the state also provided an exemption to people who could suffer health consequences if they are vaccinated — an argument that is, at least, plausible under the Court's recent religion decisions. They were supported in an amicus brief by the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, arguably the nation's most sophisticated law firm representing religious right causes.
In a dissent joined by Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, Gorsuch essentially agrees with the plaintiffs, making the case for granting a religious exemption to the state's vaccine mandate. Quoting Tandon v. Newsom (2021), one of the Court's two recent decisions granting places of worship an exemption from certain public health rules, Gorsuch claims that a law is constitutionally suspect "if it treats 'any comparable secular activity more favorably than religious exercise.'"
Thus, under Gorsuch's approach, the state must exempt religious objectors because it has a single exemption — again, for people who could suffer serious health consequences if they receive the vaccine.
Had Gorsuch's approach prevailed, it's likely that religious objectors would be exempted from nearly any law. Speed limits, for example, typically exempt police, ambulances, and other emergency vehicles responding to an emergency. Even laws banning homicide typically contain exemptions for self-defense. (Although, in fairness, Gorsuch concedes that a religious exemption is inappropriate when the "challenged law serves a compelling interest and represents the least restrictive means for doing so." So Gorsuch probably would not allow religiously motivated murder.)
In any event, Gorsuch's view did not prevail — though it is far from clear that it will not receive five votes in a future case. Though Justice Barrett joined a majority of the Court in allowing Maine's vaccine mandate to take effect, her opinion (which is joined by Justice Brett Kavanaugh) clarifies that she did so on exceedingly narrow grounds.
Essentially, Barrett argues that the Supreme Court has discretion to decide which cases it wants to hear. And her opinion suggests that she would exercise her discretion to not hear this particular case.
That's consistent with an approach she laid out in a 2017 essay, where she argued that Supreme Court justices who encounter an argument that they think is legally valid but that would lead to disastrous results should exercise their discretion not to hear a case raising that argument.
For now, at least, the bottom line is that Maine's vaccine mandate is in effect. Public-facing health care workers will need to receive the Covid-19 vaccine unless they have a medical excuse.
Again, it's not a huge loss for the religious right. But the decision in Does suggests that there is, at least, some limit to the Court's willingness to carve out legal exemptions for religious conservatives.

Vin Scully, Michael Jordan, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Receive Presidential Medal of Freedom
President Obama is going to meet a whole bunch of sports stars when he presents his last Presidential Medals of Freedom.
by Dave Brown
November 16, 2016, 9:08pm
Dennis Wierzbicki-USA TODAY Sports
The Presidential Medal of Freedom, while certainly a wonderful honor for those who are chosen, also has seemed like a contrived way for the president of United States to meet other famous people who he likes. Everybody knows that President Obama is a big sports fan, so it should come as little surprise that Michael Jordan, Vin Scully, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar made the 2016 list, Obama's last before leaving office. Actually, if you include baseball writer god Bruce Springsteen, it's four from the sports world. In any case, Jordan, Scully, and Abdul-Jabbar (and Springsteen) will be among 21 recipients (including two posthumous) coming to the White House next week for a ceremony.
Of Scully, the White House says:
In Southern California, where generations of fans have grown up listening to Dodger baseball, Scully's voice is known as the "soundtrack to summer." In 1988, he was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Scully's signature voice brought to life key moments in baseball history, including perfect games by Sandy Koufax and Don Larsen, Kirk Gibson's home run in the 1988 World Series, and Hank Aaron's record-breaking 715th home run.
Of Kareem, it says:
In addition to his legendary basketball career, Abdul-Jabbar has been an outspoken advocate for social justice.
And it's true: Kareem's columns and essays are an indispensable part of a social science reading diet. As for Michael Jordan, well, he was a great basketball player and won six championships and no doubt accomplished much behind the scenes for social progress, though none of that is noted by the White House at this time.
With these 21, which also include Tom Hanks, Cicely Tyson (of Deadpool!), Robert Redford, Diana Ross, Robert De Niro—come on, Obama is totally doing this just to see Hanks, Redford, Tyson, Ross, and De Niro! Anyway, with these 21, it makes 102 total Medal of Freedom honorees under President Obama, beating Ronald Reagan's record by one.
Yogi Berra and Willie Mays were recipients in 2015, and there are 29 medal recipients from the sports world overall since 1963.

'Life Below Zero' Episode 150 Goes Inside Building a Tree House (VIDEO)
Meredith Jacobs December 29, 2020, 4:00 pm
Why not kick off the new year with a milestone for a National Geographic hit and by learning life skills from those who fight to survive in remote corners of Alaska?
Life Below Zero's 150th episode airs on New Year's Day, and TV Insider has an exclusive sneak peek of Ricko DeWilde teaching his children some important lessons while they build a tree house.
The kids are, of course, excited to make it big, but as DeWilde explains, they'll also be learning a lot. The "same basic pattern" of a treehouse is used to construct other buildings such as smokehouses. "Further down the road," these are "the skills they're going to need to know," he adds.
Watch the clip above as he details the right materials to use to build the structure, what to clear out from the area, and more.
Also in the 150th episode of Life Below Zero, with winter approaching, "the tough Alaskans toil to secure scarce food and opportunity during the fleeting warm days of summer," the logline teases. Sue Aikens finds an unexpected bounty on the tundra and changes her plans, while Andy Bassich deals with losing a vital resource. Plus, Jessie Holmes and his dogs check out unexplored country.
'Life Below Zero's Sue Aikens Talks Being Targeted by Alaska's Predators
Also, find out why the 1800s cabin the National Geographic star is restoring is so special.
2021 will also see new episodes of the spinoff, Life Below Zero: Next Generation (which follows those who rejected contemporary life and choose to live in the Alaskan wilderness), weekly beginning Tuesday, January 19. The Life Below Zero season finale airs Tuesday, January 12.

In terms of ranking, Cobb is fourth place in confirmed cases and hospitalizations among the top four counties (which also include Gwinnett, Fulton and DeKalb), but second place in deaths. behind only Fulton.
Bear in mind, however, these are not per capita numbers, and reflect the large populations of the top four counties. The hardest-hit counties in terms of cases, hospitalization and deaths per 100,000 are in rural counties in South Georgia, plus Hancock County.
For example, Echols County, a low population county on the Florida line, has 4,460 cases per 100,000, compared with 550 cases per 100,000 for Cobb County.

The Georgia Department of Public Health describes the data collection process as follows:
The Daily Status Report is updated once daily at 3 p.m. Data are reported to the Georgia Department of Public Health (DPH) from numerous labs, hospitals and providers in various ways.
Electronic Laboratory Reports (ELR) are data files transmitted to DPH that contain patient identifiers, test information and results. Individual "case" reports may also be submitted through DPH's secure web portal, SendSS, from healthcare providers and other required reporters. These reports often contain more specific patient information. In either reporting scenario, data may be incomplete.
Data displayed on the DPH Daily Status Report reflect the information transmitted to DPH, but may not reflect all current tests or cases due to timing of testing and data reporting

Critical Race Theory: Illinois Teacher Sues District Over 'Equity' Push
They don't even hide their Marxism. They're indoctrinating kids K-8th grade about the evils of the nuclear family.
Posted by Mary Chastain Tuesday, June 29, 2021 at 03:00pm 26 Comments
Illinois drama teacher Stacy Deemer sued the Evanston-Skokie School District (District 65) over its critical race theory training classes with 'highly racial content that stereotypes White people." The teacher claims the school is violating the Constitution.
The teacher brought the lawsuit under the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
The lawsuit mentions how people confuse equity and equality:
5. Equity is very different than equality, although the two are sometimes confused. Equality is the principle proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence, defended in the Civil War, and codified into law through the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. As District 65 itself has recognized, equality is about sameness and treating everyone in an identical manner regardless of their race. Equity is about so-called justice and individuals getting what they "need and deserve." Said another way, equality strives for equal opportunity while equity strives for equal outcomes.
6. In the name of equity, District 65 visibly proclaims that it "is committed to focusing on race as one of the first visible indicators of identity" in its Racial and Educational Equity Policy, featured prominently on its website.
The webpage includes a link to the "District 65 Equity Glossary."
Superintendent Devon Horton already told teachers, "If you're not antiracist, we can't have you in front of our students."
Deemer shows in the lawsuit how Horton defines antiracists with an image from a lesson for elementary students.
Apparently, District 65 has forced "antiracist training" on their teachers since 2017. So all of this pre-dates George Floyd's death.
Nuclear Family Destruction
One portion of the lawsuit caught my eye: the destruction of the nuclear family.
The training tells kids K-8th grade: "It [is] important to disrupt the Western nuclear family dynamics as the best/proper way to have a family[.]"
Instead of a nuclear family, the lawsuit says the schools teach third, fourth, and fifth-grade students about "Intergenerational, Black Families and Black Villages."
The part of the villages is long, but I had to include the whole thing. Destructing the nuclear family is a Marxist priority. From the lawsuit (emphasis mine):
146. In 2020, as part of its BLM Week Black Villages curriculum, District 65 included in a lesson plan for third through fifth grade students, "It [is] important to disrupt the Western nuclear family dynamics as the best/proper way to have a family[.]"
147. In 2021, as part of its Black Villages curriculum, District 65 included in a lesson plan for third grade students, "During our lesson on whiteness, we discussed how white culture shows up in the way that we think about family structures. There is a belief that a 'normal' family consists of a mom, dad, son, daughter, and pet. We've learned that this isn't true."
148. In 2021, as part of its Black Villages curriculum, District 65 set forth a guiding principle in a lesson plan for fourth grade students that included "Another way whiteness/white supremacy shows up in the United States is in the idea of the nuclear family. In the United States and other countries colonized by European countries, families that consist of a mom and dad and 2-3 children (maybe even a dog) are considered the proper or right way to have a family."
149. In 2021, as part of its Black Villages curriculum, District 65 instructed fifth grade teachers to conduct a survey among students to determine whether each student is an "individualist" or "collectivist."
150. District 65 instructed teachers to "Tell students: In many cultures and families, people work together as a collective village that takes care of [each other] . . . In cultures that strongly value the collective village, the success of one person depends on the success of everybody; people are all connected to each other. This idea is called collectivism."
151. District 65 also included as a teaching point, "The opposite of collectivism is individualism. Individualism celebrates independence and individual achievement."
Why did I emphasize the last part? It is 100% pure communism, which does not exist in "many cultures." You can take care of each other and help out without sacrificing your wants and needs.
The district used African proverbs to push the Marxism views:
153. The African proverbs included, "If you want to go fast, go alone;
but if you want to go far, go together"; "It takes a village to raise a child"; and "I am because we are."
154. The American sayings included, "Good things come to those who work hard"; "Pull yourself up by your bootstraps"; and "Worry about yourself."
155. District 65 instructed teachers to explain that the idea of Black Villages and the lesson's guiding principles "have to do with the idea of collectivism because they focus on how important it is for communities (villages, families, generations) to work together for the benefit of everybody, like the messages in these [African] proverbs."
Just WOW. They do know that those proverbs could go along with the nuclear family, right? Let's look at "It takes a village to raise a child." I have no doubt a mother or father can raise a child on their own without any outside help. But let me tell you this right now. Having family around or good neighbors to lend a hand is a blessing for parents, especially new moms.
But once you destroy the so-called nuclear family (a term I still hate even though I'm no longer a socialist) you can easily instill your Marxist views. It is like feminists preaching choice, but bash us who choose to stay at home.
The training forces teachers to admit "White identity is inherently racist[.]," participate in "affinity groups" and "privilege walks," accept the fact that white people are "loud, authoritative…[and] controlling."
The district requires students to participate in those groups and walks as well.
The lawsuit accuses the district of indoctrinating K-8th grade students by telling them that treating everyone equally "is a colorblind message" and "color blindness helps racism."
I guess District 65 doesn't celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr. He is racist by their logic.
Teacher's Experience
Oh, wait. Deemer taught part-time at Dr. Martin Kimg Jr. Literary and Fine Arts School among other schools. That's a little ironic.
Deemer knew about and had to participate in the "segregated affinity groups among staff and students, Courageous Conversation trainings and practices, curriculum centering on whiteness, and District 65 policies and procedure devoted to so-called racial equity."
Deemer expressed concerns when teachers had to read Johnny Saldana's book Drama of Color. Her colleagues rolled their eyes, interrupted her, and chastised her intelligence.
"Plaintiff concluded that if she voiced her concerns further, she would be marginalized and face further humiliation from her colleagues," states the lawsuit. "That was the one and only time Plaintiff spoke out to District 65 against the District's materials or policies."

The value of a stock is the present value of all the dividends it will ever pay; or, what is the same number, the present value of all the earnings it will every have.
Any assumption change changes the value enormously, like the interest rate used to discount future money, future of competitors affecting those earnings, etc.
Then there's the crowd, which believes that any movement comes from somebody knowing something that they don't and want to get in or out before anyone knows what it is.
rhhardin | June 29, 2021 at 4:01 pm
The trouble with critical race theory is that it's a bad reading.
It's also a motivated bad reading, which, if they noticed it, would give a better reading, and eventually one that's completely normal. But they don't notice it.
So it's a literary criticism mistake, basically.
henrybowman | June 29, 2021 at 4:24 pm
Knowing nothing about Illinois school districts, I am led to wonder what the racial makeup of the Evanston-Skokie school district is, given that this neo-racism has been in force there since 2017.
schafph in reply to henrybowman. | June 29, 2021 at 4:50 pm
I live in the area. Skokie and Evanston are very liberal mostly Caucasian upper middle class. Recently passed a reparations measure funded by marijuana sales tax revenue.
Milhouse in reply to schafph. | June 30, 2021 at 1:14 am
Yes. I don't live there but I've been there and I know a lot of people who do live there. It's a safe part of Greater Chicago, where crime is something that happens to other people, so liberals can indulge their feelings and signal their virtue without fear of personal consequences. Until their choices rise up and slap them in the face, good and hard.

accept the fact that white people are "loud, authoritative…[and] controlling."
LOL, what a load of horsesh*t. Not only is that stereotype not true of many white people, it IS true of many, many black women — as anyone who has been around loud and bossy black women can attest.
But we're not allowed to mention stereotypes about blacks (that's raaaaaacist!), even as we're forcing white kids to memorize and repeat stereotypes about whites. Because insulting and demeaning whites is never raaaaaacist. Whites have it coming!
I hope Ms. Deemer wins her lawsuit and gets millions in damages. And I hope lots of other people follow her example and sue every idiot leftist in sight over this commie bullsh*t and the blatant brainwashing going on in our schools.

Just one example of Comrade Obama's "fundamentally transformed" America.
Does everyone now understand that Obama is a closet Marxist? And that the Democrat Party, which now controls the federal government, is Marxist to the core?
BTW, Lee Smith reports it's the combat units in our military, the troops trained to fight and kill America's enemies, that are being most thoroughly purged of 'extremists'.
Note… Comrade Obama's buddy Bill Ayers stated long ago he has a plan for the 25 million or so deplorables he thinks can never be 'transformed'. It's the same plan Lenin, Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot had for those they considered beyond 'transformation'.

The third rail of political discussion is African culture and the possible drawbacks when it's forced to grapple with the 21st-century and with progress in general.
Look at South Africa. White colonials dragged tribal sub-Saharan Africans into the 20th-century, imposing modern Western methods of social organization and agriculture on conflicting pastoral tribes whose way of life is completely antithetical to them.
Now that black South Africans are in the process of "liberating" themselves from the colonizers, they are descending into the worst sort of tribal corruption, including wholesale redistribution of land and violent retaliation against former white landowners.
Wait for the famine and the requests for foreign food aid to what was once a self-sufficient and prosperous part of the world.

I attended a mandatory in-service day about three years ago (in Western PA) that required teachers attend a session on antiracism (although I don't recall the actual name). As soon as the speaker implied that all whites have privilege and racism, I stood up and walked out.

UL Intervarsity Review - Galway win Bowl Trophy
This tournament took place last Weekend 28/29 March at the University of Limerick.
This year 6 teams took part:
Limerick Ori-ginals:
UL 55's
UL DT's
UCD 1
Galway Tribes
We arrived up Saturday morning and straight into play. We put in a good performance in teh first game losing 12-20 against the eventual winners, the Orig-inals.
The gale force winds didn't help us in the next 2 games where we played UCD1, losing 0-20 and UL'55's losing 3-25.
The final 2 games on Saturday were very close and we probably should have won both, a bad inning in each game cost us, losing 10-14 against UL DT's and 18-19 to UCD2 (A game in which we led 16-5).
So we went 0-5 for Saturday but did not play too badly and we had a certain amount of confidence going into day 2.
We went out to bar close to hotel and watched the IRL v BUL match and had a good night afterwards.
The 5th and 6th place teams were to contest the Bowl final on Sunday. This was to be a best of 3 game series against UCD2.
After a late night and having to rely on public transport, the opposition didn't make it in time for the first game so we got a walkover. But thankfully they made it for the second. We controlled this game pretty much all through and eventually ran out winners 19-8 with some very good defence and big hits, including a grand slam from Simon, therefore winning the bowl.
Some of us waited for final and presentations following. The final was won the the Ori-ginals over the 55's, this was an exiting game which was won in the first extra inning.
Due to some confusion, the Bowl trophy was locked in a cabinet somewhere (I believe its a nice crystal trophy) so we had to accept a cereal bowl in its place. We will get the proper trophy in due course.
Thanks to everyone who played (See squad in last post).

Chapter 545: Chapter 545 - The Crew's Whereabouts
Chapter 545 - The Crew's Whereabouts
Qin Nan had never seen the mysterious copper mirror this excited since he had acquired it. Even when his life had been in danger a couple of times previously, the copper mirror did not even show itself. What exactly was this copper piece to make the mirror so excited?
Whoosh.
The copper mirror flew out from Qin Nan's divine Sense and floated before him while emitting a blue glow.
Runes began to appear on its surface, which slowly formed a pair of attractive blue eyes that stared at Qin Nan. Even though it was a mere illusion, the icy aura from the eyes felt like it originated from a different world.
"Hand it to me!"
The female icy voice was accompanied by a superior imperiousness.
Qin Nan raised his eyebrows. He felt unpleasant after hearing the tone, thus he replied in a displeased manner, "Please, the thing that you desire is currently in my possession. Shouldn't your tone at least be more normal if you're planning to get it from me?"
"What benefits are you looking for, say them now!" The voice coldly spoke.
For some reason, the entire second-floor of the Cultivation Hall was covered in a layer of ice.
"Benefits?"
Qin Nan was startled. He did not expect the copper mirror to offer such thing. However, on second thought, since the copper mirror was extremely mysterious, and it was so keen on this copper piece, he might as well exchange it for some benefits.
Not to mention that every time Qin Nan seeked for its help, it would demand Chaos Qi from him.
"I'm currently more worried about Princess Miao Miao, Tang Qingshan, and the others' whereabouts…"
Qin Nan was not in need of anything at the moment. As a matter of fact, his strength and influence continued to improve after becoming Zhou Bihua's successor and acquiring the Art of the Immortal Vermilion Bird. What about his companions who had all ended up in the upper district's Eastern Continent?
Qin Nan blurted out without hesitating, "Copper mirror, do you know how everyone is doing in the Eastern Continent?"
The copper mirror surprisingly went silent, before the icy voice appeared once again, "Qin Nan, think twice before you make your decision! You don't have many chances to ask me for a favor!"
"I've decided." Qin Nan nodded his head straight away, while his eyes were filled with surprise, "Can you actually do it?"
The icy voice blurted out as the illusionary eyes summoned a giant hand and grabbed the copper piece from Qin Nan's hand.
Following this, the surface of the mirror emitted a magical glow.
An image suddenly appeared on the surface.
In the image was a giant mountain, filled with visible Qi taking the form of dragons, and blossoms of mystical flowers. There was a young woman with a tall physique wearing a long purple dress. She had long black hair that felt like a waterfall, and attractive facial features. Her big glistening eyes made her look like a naughty fairy.
"That's…the Princess!"
Qin Nan's eyes flickered with astonishment. It had only been less than three months since he had last met her, and she had grown to the age of nineteen.
"She's currently at the Mu Clan of the Eastern Continent, a perfectly safe environment—plus, environment—plus, her status is more formidable than yours." The icy voice said.
"Mu Clan of the Eastern Continent?" Qin Nan was stunned. Where the hell was that?
The icy voice did not explain any further, as the image on the mirror changed suddenly.
The magical mountain from before had disappeared, replaced by a vast ocean. Furthermore, the ocean was covered in the eerie color of blood, with countless beasts roaming within it.
A huge ship was currently sailing on the ocean, and on its bow stood a man holding a black saber with a formidable aura—he was none other than Tang Qingshan!
Behind him stood Peak Leader Duanmu and the others.
"They are currently at the Crimson Blood Ocean. The Four Great Factions are clueless as to where they are yet. They are trying to improve their strength and cultivation. By the way, Tang Qingshan is only a step away from ranking up to the Martial Sacred Realm." The icy voice said.
"Ranking up to the Martial Sacred Realm!"
Qin Nan's heart shuddered violently. If Tang Qingshan were to rank up to the Martial Sacred Realm, his strength was surely extraordinary comparing to the ordinary Martial Sacred Realm cultivators. His strength would be outstanding. Furthermore, once Tang Qingshan became a Martial Sacred, the strength of his crew in the Eastern Continent would grow significantly.
The image on the mirror continued to change.
The Crimson Blood Ocean was gone, replaced by an icy mountain, and inside one of its caves, deep within it, Gong Yang was sitting with his legs crossed, while the Martial Spirit floating behind him had ranked up to the sixth-grade Di rank instead of its of its previous rank of the first-grade Di rank.
"Gong Yang, the successor of the Nine Symbolic Words. He has made his way into the Dao-Seeking Mountain and became the top inner disciple there. The Wen Dao Elders are very fond of him." The icy voice said.
"Err…" Qin Nan's expression became strange at that instant.
He did not expect Gong Yang to sneak into the Dao-Seeking Mountain undercover.
The mirror let out another glow.
Sima Kong had joined the Trading Alliance, and his status at the headquarters of the Trading Alliance was no weaker than Lu Jian's, guaranteeing him a bright future.
Zhao Fang had obtained some sort of succession and joined the Wanxiang Pavilion, becoming one of the top three inner disciples there.
Longhu was appointed as the Platoon Leader of Black Tortoise Platoon's ninety-nine batch disciples. The Platoon Leader of the Black Tortoise Platoon seemed to think highly of him.
"Awesome, that's awesome." Qin Nan said in an excited tone, "The Four Great Factions are trying to hunt us down, but little do they know that my friends have managed to gradually stabilize their influence in the Eastern Continent. One day, when the time arrives, we will gather together once again, and crush the Dao-Seeking Mountain! We will crush the Four Great Factions!"
At that instant, it was difficult for Qin Nan to calm his thoughts.
He was not the only one fighting and working diligently. He had a bunch of companions fighting together with him.
"Oh, by the way, how about the Death Emperor?" A sudden thought came up to Qin Nan, causing his eyes to emit an icy glow.
"He is currently at White currently at White Tiger City, and was invited by the First Prince to take part in the trial of the Dragon Abyss Mystical Ground. He's currently with the First Prince." The female voice replied.
"The First Prince?"
Qin Nan was stunned for a second, before a grin appeared on his face.
It did prove the saying 'enemies are destined to meet one another'. It was most likely that the Death Emperor was aiming to acquire something from the Dragon Abyss Mystical Ground.
The icy voice blurted out before the copper mirror returned to Qin Nan's body and fell silent.
Qin Nan was stunned, before he immediately blurted out, "Copper mirror, if I give you enough Chaos Qi, are you able to tell me their whereabouts again?"
"Hey, copper mirror…"
Qin Nan asked several times, but failed to get a response from the copper mirror.
He could not help but let out a wry smile. This copper mirror was extraordinarily powerful. It could easily check his companions' whereabouts. However, the only problem was that it was not under his control.
"Forget it, I'm satisfied to know they are safe for now."
"It's all thanks to the copper piece that the Third Prince gave me, which allowed the copper mirror to show itself on its own. It seems like I owe him a great favor," Qin Nan mumbled to himself, "If that's the case, I will help him with all I can in the trial. Meanwhile, I can also get my revenge on that prick…"
Qin Nan's eyes flickered coldly.
Death Emperor, now that my strength has improved, where are you going to escape to this time!?

Eurozone leaders have reached an agreement in principle on a pact to co-ordinate economic policies, EU President Herman Van Rompuy has said.
Other elements of the package were still under discussion, he added.
Eurozone leaders are in Brussels to try to find a way out of the debt crisis that has dogged the region for more than a year.
Earlier, Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou had called for Europe to take "strong decisions".
In a message on Twitter, Mr Van Rompuy had initially said: "We have an agreement on the Pact for Euro."
The message was later amended to: "Update from ongoing meeting: Agreement in principle on the Pact for the Euro, but still discussing the other elements of the package."
A pact would give members a say over each other's major economic policies - a move aimed at keeping countries under firm fiscal discipline.
Any agreement would need to be endorsed at a summit of all 27 EU states on 24-25 March.

Panaji: The Goa government has notified the Solar Energy Policy to promote unconventional electricity generation in the coastal state.
As per the policy, the consumer and the producer of solar power will be entitled to avail benefit in the form of 50 per cent subsidy from the state government, a senior official said on Friday.
The policy also provides for penalty equal to five per cent of the value of energy committed every day, if power producer fails to complete and commission the project within the given deadline, he said.
It mentions that technological improvements have made generation of solar energy economically viable and would lead to reduction in expenditure of the state for purchase of conventional power from the grid.
Under the policy, the government will provide 50 per cent subsidy, including 30 per cent share from the Centre, for the capital cost or the benchmark cost provided by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) or cost arrived through tendering process by the Goa Energy Development Agency (GEDA).

I hope that everyone really enjoyed their summer, even though the weather changed as the school holidays began! As I write this the late summer series has been completed and the cruiser Open series will start on the 1st October. Our Dinghies will race on Saturdays up to the 9th December.
Over the summer we hosted the Osprey Nationals and the Topper Nationals both events went very well. As always our team of volunteers and our staff ensured the smooth running of both events. Thank you to all our members who came down to the Club to watch and support and to be tolerant of the squeezed car parking, due to us hosting in excess of 150 toppers, with their associated motor homes, trailers etc. The youth sailors really respected our facilities and were a credit to their class. What a great pleasure it was to see so many youngsters enjoying the water.
We were all set up for a great days racing in support of Bart's Bash. Unfortunately very strong winds over the weekend caused a postponement.
Our RYA Recognised Training Centre was recently inspected and passed with a very good report from the inspector. Congratulations to Andrew Tate for his role as our Training Centre Principal. Andrew is stepping down after a number of years of ensuring that our training is undertaken to a high standard and safely. Thank you Andrew, and we welcome our new Principal Alyn Fendley.
Commodore's Charity Pursuit Race Sunday 12th November.
Over the Summer I have issued the annual challenge to Parkstone Yacht Club. The Commodore's Youth Challenge with Parkstone is hosted at our Club this year and will be sailed on the morning of the 27th December. Please come and support our team.
Over the summer we had some really notable achievements within the youth section. Freedie Howarth was 1st UK Junior Sailor in the Optimist Nationals in Weymouth. James Foster achieved 3rd in the Optimist National Rankings and Angus Kemp was 6th in the Topper Worlds in Brittany. Carlo Consolos reached the finals of the Honda Rib Challenge. Really well done to the above and all our youth sailors.
In September I hosted my Commodores Cocktail Party at the Club. The event was very well attended but for me the outstanding success of the evening was the comments offered by our visiting guests from other Yacht Clubs and associations. They were very praiseworthy of our Club, our staff and our youth members who distributed trays of canapés. The Club looks first class and I wish to thank all our staff and volunteer youth members for all their hard work in making the evening such a success.
Of particular interest was a history of the Club from our foundation in 1852 to the mid 1950's. This display along with photographs of our early Commodores can be seen in the Skylight Lounge. If you are unfamiliar with our early history you will be amazed! A huge thank you to Sue Thornton-Grimes and Richard Cake for all their hard work in the research and putting the display together. There will be an evening talk in the New Year for members on the history of our Club, with some fascinating facts unearthed by our sleuths, date to be announced.
The next fund raining event towards raising money for Julia's House will be the Charity Pursuit Race in November. This along with the "Fashion Show" in the spring of next year I hope will, along with fund raising so far, reach a total of around £2,500, already half of the target of £5,000 we are aiming for. This will fund very special facilities for children at Julia's House.

About 4,000 MTN MOMO Subscribers To Be Rewarded For Patronizing Digital Payments
General Manager for MTN Mobile Money Limited, Mr. Eli Hini
Accra –August 26th, 2020. In a bid to promote digital payments in this era of COVID- 19, MTN MoMo has launched the 'MoMo Pay & Win' promotion to reward customers who make payments for goods and services through MoMo Merchant IDs and QR codes in the months of August and September.
The points based promotion gives customers the opportunity to earn and accrue points when they make payments. Customers earn1 MoMo point for every GHC1 .00 paid. Payments should have been made to at least five unique Merchants ID numbers within the month to qualify for a prize. At the end of each month, the top 2,000 customers who earn the most points will be declared winners. The 2000 selected customers will be presented with e-cash prizes ranging from GHC10, 000.00 to GHC 50.00.
Speaking on the promo, the General Manager for MTN Mobile Money Limited, Mr. Eli Hini said, "Digitization is facilitating the new- normal and at the center stage of this is digital payments". We are using this promotion to encourage customers to enjoy convenience of making payments using a merchant ID or a QR code which eliminates the handling of cash and ensures a safe and secure transaction."
He urged retail outlets, churches, hospitals, Associations and unions etc., to also embrace MoMo pay as a means of receiving all forms of payments to reduce the time spent sorting, counting and transporting cash to the banks. "With the merchant pay, your money is kept safely and sales can easily be tracked," he added.
The 'MoMo Pay & Win' promotion was launched on August 5th as part of activities to celebrate MoMo month under the theme "The Relevance of MoMo in a COVID 19" World". It is aimed at encouraging customers to adopt digital payments over physical cash which could be a source of exposure to the corona virus. The MTN "MoMo Pay and Win" promo will end on30th September. Customers can check their accrued points for the month by dialing *120#. At the end of each month, the winners will be presented with their prizes.
Other activities outlined to create excitement for customers during 2020 MoMo month celebration are digital fairs and social media quizzes. Earlier in the month, Stakeholder workshop was organised to discuss how to boost the FinTech Eco- system in a COVID -19 world.
With the launch of the promotion, MTN has intensified its campaign against fraud. MTN MoMo customers are advised to be careful of the activities of scammers. Customers are to note that MTN does NOT charge ANY money or its equivalent before prizes are redeemed; hence any request for money, recharge cards or airtime before a prize is redeemed is fraudulent. Calls originating from MTN on the promotion will be made through the official line 0244300000 only.
MTN MoMo Month was instituted in 2012 and has for the past eight (8) years been instrumental in driving awareness, influencing policy and deepening the use of MoMo services. Over the years, the MoMo Month celebration has contributed significantly to driving adoption and acceptance of e-money nationwide.
MTN MoMo was launched in 2009 with two main services i.e. Money Transfer and Airtime Purchase. The MoMo platform has six major categories of financial transactions under which varying services are provided including Pensions, Insurance, Savings, Micro Loans, International Remittances, and Banking Options.

Rudds play legal hardball against deceased nun
The Australian's editor-in-chief Chris Mitchell has today published a cracking exclusive story about the godfather of his son – but it was buried on page seven.
Stephen Mayne,
Mitchell has poached most of the top talent from The Courier-Mail, making The Australian is well-placed on Queensland political stories, and this is how Sean Parnell's intriguing tale began:
Therese Rein, wife of federal Labor leader Kevin Rudd, bought shares with a market value of $5.2 million from the estate of her dead business partner for a tenth of their worth.
Pre-emptive rights in takeovers and upon death are not unusual, but the startling aspect of this arrangement is that it was entered into after the much older Edwards, one-time nun and physiotherapist, who died of cancer and renal failure, fell ill. No wonder her estate tried to get out of it.
KPMG valued Edwards's 5200 shares in Ingeus at $5.2 million in 2004 but the Rudds picked them up for just $520,000 last month after enforcing an agreement signed in May 1998 – five months before Rudd entered Federal Parliament.
A six-month court battle was only resolved last month and Therese Rein confirmed the original agreement was strictly followed. It's not clear if any quarter was given on the question of the legal bills.
This means the Rudds have decided to profitably increase their stake in Ingeus, the third largest job network provider to the Federal Government, after Kevin became Opposition Leader when some observers would suggest they should have been doing the reverse and selling out.
While Edwards would have picked up an equivalent bargain if Rein had died first, this was highly unlikely given that our wannabe first lady was 27 years younger and in good health.
It would be fascinating to know what dividend policy Ingeus adopted on its reported $8.8 million profit in 2005-06 and over the previous decade. Knowing that pre-emptive rights to pick up discounted shares existed, the Rudds had a financial incentive to retain as much profit in the company as possible.
Therese Rein now own 13,000 Ingeus shares, alongside nine other shareholders with undisclosed holdings. Given the extraordinary global growth of the operation, the stake could be worth more than $20 million.
Based on an earnings multiple of less than 12, a business valuation of more than $100 million is not unreasonable for an operation with revenues of $175 million and 1300 staff. However, it all swings on what percentage the Rudds now control and whether such a people-intensive, government-dependent operation is readily saleable without the only surviving founder remaining CEO.
