VERSION SPOTLIGHT
Intel and Oakley team up for smart glasses
Posted on January 14, 2015 November 23, 2015 by Natalie Yeung
Chipmaker Intel Corporation and sports equipment manufacturer Oakley, Inc. are teaming up to produce smart glasses that will ship later this year. Intel chief executive Brian Krzanich and Oakley chief executive Colin Baden announced this collaboration during the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) held in Las Vegas on 6 January 2015.
Although both executives did not reveal extensive details as regards product specifications, it is worth mentioning that Oakley is an established brand for sports sunglasses. Hence, the partnership between the two companies would result in introduction of smart sports glasses and other wearable sports equipment.
Since last year, Intel has been actively venturing into the emerging wearable technology segment. In fact, the company has partnered with several companies and brands involved in fashion, lifestyle, and fitness. These include Basis Peak, Fossil Group, Luxottica Group, MICA and Opening Ceremony, and SMS Audio.
"The rise of new personal computing experiences, intelligent and connected devices, and the wearable revolution are redefining the relationship between consumers and technology," said Krzanich. "Our goal with Intel technology is to help solve real problems and enable experiences that are truly desired by people and businesses."
Announced and introduced during CES 2015, the Intel® Curie™ module will power wearable devices from Intel.
The module, a button-sized hardware product, is the first purpose-built system-on-chip (SoC) from Intel. Designed specifically for wearable devices, Intel® Curie™ includes key specifications such as Intel® Quark™ SE SoC, Bluetooth low-energy radio, sensor, and battery charging.

"It's important that the form factor compress so that the electronic component of it doesn't become burdensome," said Baden. "With a partner like Intel I think of all the functionality that we can compress into a very small space, into a beautifully designed pair of glasses, will change the sport industry for us, and will change lifestyle construct of our culture."
Krzanich noted that the Intel® Curie™ fits well in sports wearables because it has a dedicated sensor hub processor and pattern classification engine. These two features will allow identification of different data relating to sports activities, including movements and vital stats, with precision and efficiency.

Harmon Shops looking southeast, 1914.
Here are some photos of the "Harmon Shops" in 1907, when they were brand new, and in 1914, when they became the terminus of the innovative "electric system" from New York City—one of the main selling points for Clifford Harmon's real estate development.
Harmon Shops looking south, 1907.
The photos come from articles in two industry publications—the Street Railway Journal and the Electric Railway Journal—which describe the facility in great detail and include maps, schematic drawings, and additional photos.

Shortly after WW2 ended, about 1947, my father, Arthur Newbery, Sr. ran a restaurant in an old Railroad dining car. My brother, Arthur Newbery, Jr. (now deceased) and I were in our teens and worked there. I handled the counter, my brother washed dishes and my Father did all the cooking. The car-restaurant was on Railroad property just outside the back door of the machine shop and we only fed workers. They placed their orders at the counter and then we took them back into the seating area when the food was ready or they picked them up themselves. The dining area had long benches on both sides and two small tables in the back. My Mother, Elvera, (Vera) worked there as well, but I don't remember how often as she usually remained home when my brother and I worked during weekends and vacations from school. She was probably home with my younger brother, Ronnie, at that time. My parents never discussed finances with us so I don't know if they rented the "Car" or if we were contracted to the Railroad. All I remember is that was where the engines changed from coal-fired steam to electricity if they were going on into New York City. (And, of course, back to steam when they returned to make the trip back up north.) Everything, including the dining car and the workers, was covered with black soot from the coal and the ground outside was black with soot. Whenever we took the short ride to the Bronx to visit my Fasano grandparents, I loved sitting in the window seat and watching the Hudson River traffic as we neared the City. That was the only view of the Statue of Liberty I can recall.
I also worked there from time to time. I have photos of myself my brother Art took with my apron on. I have many great memories of the Harmon Canteen. I have some photos of the interior and the exterior of the diner my brother Art took, that I am going to donate to the Croton-On-Hudson historical society. Also I have some drawings by one of the workers, done on the back of blank menus that picture my Dad and Brother.
Such a shame the building at Harmon is being demolished instead of restored.

Labour Reckon Civil Service Think Their Disarmament Plan is "Brilliant"
How's this for a conference laugh. Labour's "Shadow Minister for Peace and Disarmament" Fabian Hamilton has recounted the tale of what happened when Emily Thornberry met the Foreign Office permanent under-secretary Sir Simon McDonald during the election to discuss the event of a Labour win. The plan for day one: appoint a Cabinet minister with responsibility to disarm the UK…
"Just before the General Election on June 8th, Emily Thornberry and Jennifer Larbie, Head of International Policy for Jeremy's Office, they went to see Sir Simon McDonald who is the Under-Secretary at the Foreign Office, that means by the way that he is the boss, he's the senior United Kingdom Diplomat… When Emily and Jennifer put to Sir Simon that the idea that if we won on Thursday and if we win in the future – when we win in the future – we will create, because it's in the manifesto, a Minister, a Secretary of State, a Cabinet role, for Peace and Disarmament, and that would include the Ministry of Defence and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. And McDonald's reply was: 'Brilliant, that's a really good idea.'"
Oh to have seen Sir Simon's face…
Speaking at a Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament fringe meeting, Hamilton also recounted a phone call with Corbyn during which he said the Labour leader reiterated his opposition to nuclear weapons:
"He [Jeremy Corbyn] said: 'You and I have been active in Parliamentary CND and I have always taken the view that our independent nuclear deterrent is a waste of money and worse.'"
A member of Labour's National Policy Forum outlined plans to bring forward motions at next year's conference to make nuclear disarmament official party policy. George Downs said scrapping nukes was "Jeremy's vision" and the left's capture of the party's Conference Arrangements Committee could be used to bring it about:
"Fingers crossed this time next year we will be debating the National Policy Forum Report which includes nuclear disarmament, but if not a contemporary motion which isn't ruled out of order by this new Conference Arrangements Committee, and we can get Labour Party policy which is in line with Jeremy's vision."
Could unilateral disarmament become official Labour policy this time next year?

Gallery: Remember nights out at The First Floor Club? David Kindred shares his photographic memories of Ipswich night spots
PUBLISHED: 12:59 23 December 2014 | UPDATED: 12:59 23 December 2014
Were you at the 21st birthday party of Ipswich Town football legend Mick Mills at the First Floor Club in early January 1970? Or do you have memories to share of what was at one time Ipswichs only night club in Tacket Street?
Christmas and the New Year have always been times to celebrate.
Hats off to Larry. Party hats at Mick MillsÕ 21st in 1970.
I have looked back this week to three venues of the past where Ipswich folk could let their hair down in the festive season.
The First Floor Club in Tacket Street was once the only late nightspot for revellers.
Ken Bean and his team would often have a queue down the stairs of the club with hundreds hoping to get in and join the fun.
Public houses are still a popular destination for a festive night out although many have closed in recent years. I feature two which have gone. The Trafalgar in Spring Road, which was between the viaduct and St Johns Road closed in 2002 and the Falcon, Playford Road, Rushmere, which closed early in 2011. Both public houses have been converted to residential use.
Christmas - Kindred Spirits
Squeeze Box. Ladies in Christmas party mood at the Trafalgar in 1974.
Save the Last Dance for Me. Ladies at the Trafalgar take a break from dancing in 1974.
These Arms of Mine. Who was behind the bar at the Trafalgar in 1974?
The Last Waltz. The Christmas party in full swing at the Trafalgar in 1974.
I Got the Music in Me. Who was the musical lady at the Trafalgar in Christmas 1974?
Smoke Gets in Your Eyes. Any law to stop smoking in public houses was a long way off in 1974 when these two were lighting their Christmas cigars at the Trafalgar in 1974. Who are they?
Come Outside. The Trafalgar, Spring Road, Ipswich, seems to have had some less than subtly placed toilets when this picture was taken in October 1948. The Trafalgar closed in 2002.
Guitar Man. Entertainment in the bar at the Falcon.
Red Red Wine. The landlord and landlady at the Rushmere Falcon. Who were they?
Sign of the Times. The Rushmere Falcon.
Your Song. A musical break at the Rushmere Falcon.
Me and My Arrow. Darts players at the Rushmere Falcon.
Party. Some of those who celebrated Mick Mills 21st birthday party at the First Floor Club. Are you in the picture?
Mr Blue Sky. Were you at the 21st birthday party of Ipswich Town football legend Mick Mills at the First Floor Club in early January 1970? Or do you have memories to share of what was at one time IpswichÕs only night club in Tacket Street?

Are you managing screening data in spreadsheets? How are you packaging it for proper submission and reimbursement? Collecting relevant data in one database and packaging in an approved format can help facilitate maximum reimbursement.
Easily capture required data in one place and submit it to the American College of Radiology (ACR) for proper and timely Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) reimbursement. By collecting lung screening data in a structured format in one system, you gain two big advantages. The data will be aggregated and packaged for proper submission, and you can use the data to gain more insight for managing the health of your population proactively.
What is needed to keep patients informed of their screening status and alert them of the need to schedule follow up appointments in a timely manner? Customizing, scheduling, and sending letters to patients manually can be difficult to manage. Automating this process can help to save resources as well as minimize the errors involved with manually generating and distributing patient letters.
Increase patient satisfaction with timely follow up communication and automatically generated reminder letters about scheduling follow up visits.This capability also reduces clerical costs of manually generating patient communication.
Does your staff require IT training on your screening program application? Training typically involves a departmental cost and takes staff away from their jobs to learn a new tool and stay current on it. An easy-to-use application can eliminate the need for system training.
Furthermore, no additional hardware will be needed to use the Screening Workflow Navigator. This means users can jump right in and begin using the module immediately with virtually no down time.
Siemens Healthineers is approved for electronic data submission to the ACR's Lung Cancer Screening Registry.
Screening Workflow Navigator is only available in USA. The products/features (here mentioned) are not commercially available in all countries. Due to regulatory reasons their future availability cannot be guaranteed. Please contact your local Siemens Healthineers organization for further details.

This year, realme further cemented its position as the no. 1 smartphone brand in the country as it emerged as the top smartphone vendor for two consecutive quarters according to separate reports from marketing research firms Canalys and Counterpoint Research.
With all these milestones, the brand is committed to giving back to the realme community by dedicating a month-long celebration jam-packed with initiatives that are sure to delight the Squad.

This fun loving couple put their passion and personalities into their wedding as the families came together to celebrate with the best weather in their own special way. We enjoyed being around the entire bunch and enjoyed QUADS of fun!! We are thankful that they put their faith in us to pull off their special day as they were our very first booking at The Old Homestead. They booked it before it was ever finished and ready for show!! Thank you, Alisha and Ozzy and your wonderful families, for such a beautiful experience! We wish you a life time of happiness.


I've been using WP Test for a while for testing out my custom WordPress themes. I like how easy it is to load lots of content edge cases and make sure my theme doesn't break. It cuts down on a lot of the time it takes to do QA on a custom theme.
Post Status has recently taken over the project. You can still download and install the data using the WordPress Importer, but they also have a WP CLI integration now. I'm trying to incorporate WP CLI into my workflow as much as I can, so I tried installing the test data using their install script.
Download their WP CLI install script from the github repo.
When prompted, enter the path to the WordPress install where you want to install the data. Since you're in the root of your sites directory, just enter the folder name of the site.
You only have to download the install script once. Now that you have it at the root of all your sites, you can run the command any time you need test data to work with.

I joined the Association when my father started practicing Tai Ji Quan 10 years ago. Together with my father, I would go for regular practice sessions at the Association every Tuesday and Thursdays then. After learning the 108 Form I was busy with my studies and subsequently went into the army. As a result I suffered a lapse in learning until I was 1 year into the army. I had since picked up Tai Ji Quan to improve my circulation and health once more, and also due to increasing fascination in what the Art can achieve in the martial aspect.


In order to establish and maintain a high performing, valuable PMO, leaders must ensure processes, stakeholders and systems are synchronized and working in complete strategic alignment towards a shared common outcome. Whether operating under the title of enterprise, program, project, or portfolio, the primary goal of a PMO is to unify the organisational outcomes and drive delivery through best practice reporting, governance, and delivery.
Research indicates that a successfully integrated PMO can yield up three times higher project success rate. To add significant, tangible value and reach the level of true partnership with the organisation, PMO leaders must drive strategic, flexible and practical performance measures that align with unique business needs and core organisational values.
Building on the success of the inaugural PMO events in Melbourne and Sydney, the 3rd PMO Leadership Summit for 2017 will once again bring together leaders and professionals from PMOs, EPMOs, Project, Program and Portfolio Delivery units. This event will provide you with the tools required for pioneering PMO excellence; from governance and delivery strategies to advice for successfully executing major projects and programs.
This is a unique opportunity to learn from and network with high-performing PMOs at all stages of development from a wide array of major corporations, government departments and industries.

Second Ubisoft Forward showcase dated for September
We can expect another rounds of announcements this September from Ubisoft, which was confirmed in a company earnings call.
Brittany Vincent
Though we just had a special Ubisoft Forward presentation in mid-July, another one is on its way this September.
Ubisoft confirmed as much during its Q1 earnings call today, where it said we should expect additional information about the upcoming Ubisoft Forward ahead of its debut.
We just learned about a number of games during the previous Forward, including the official debut of Far Cry 6 as well as Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Watch Dogs Legion. Still, there were several titles missing from that presentation. Perhaps they'll show up in September? That's what many of us are hoping, anyway.
We still aren't sure what exactly we'll hear about when the new event rolls around, but it would be nice to have some sort of confirmation that Skull and Bones is still coming down the pipeline. We'd also like to hear more about some of its plans for the next console generation.
Unfortunately, we'll have to wait and see what comes of the event, but you know we'll be here waiting and ready to go and to discuss it with you once it happens. As always, be sure to keep it locked to Shacknews for additional updates.
Fueled by horror, rainbow-sugar-pixel-rushes, and video games, Brittany is a Senior Editor at Shacknews who thrives on surrealism and ultraviolence. Follow her on Twitter @MolotovCupcake and check out her portfolio for more. Like a fabulous shooter once said, get psyched!

Indonesia: 86 families fight against new Yogyakarta airport development
World, Jul 27th
Some weeks ago, we reported that the Indonesian government, represented by the State Owned Enterprise PT. Angkasa Pura I agreed, in cooperation with investors, for the construction of an international airport megaproject in the coastal region of Kulon Progo. The project, known as NYIA (New Yogyakarta International Airport), met with a significant resistance from the local residents. No wonder: the proposed development site home to about 11,501 people, or 2,875 households. Most were small farmers who depend on their land for their livelihoods. Most left in April this year, after AP I cut off the electricity supply and damaged their farmland and crops. However, 86 families refused to sell their land to the developer and carried on fighting.
In recent days, this struggle entered something which looks like its final stage. The families who still manage to hold on to their homes and land are being subjected to a brutal evictions inflicted on them by both the police and Indonesian military. People are being violently dragged from their homes and the buildings are demolished.
One of the people who suffered eviction from her home is Wagirah, a 40 years old woman who last week Thursday watched the state forces breaking her door before she was dragged away together with her son. "I don't want you to demolish my house. You are an oppressor of small people," she screamed repeatedly. Another woman, Ika Rochyanti, said she was punched in the nose by a policewoman while she was trying to defend her house.
Before Saturday last week, AP I officials and 700 joint personnel violently evicted the families and demolished the rest of houses. Many people were injured, and their belongings taken away.
Wagirah and her neighbors, all of them women, continued to defy the personnel. They threw dust and challenged the officers to a one-on-one fight.
Their fight to defend the land that was not just their home but also a source of income from agriculture had continued for since 2012. The fight escalated last year when the airport developer completed the legal process to buy the land. Some residents accepted the purchase, while others, like Wagirah, refused and claimed the legal process validating the land purchase did not have their consent as land owners.
The 86 families were united under the Association of Residents Rejecting Kulon Progo Forced Eviction. In 2012, there were thousands of members defying the acquisition, but most of them left since.
The residents have taken several legal avenues to refuse the land acquisition. They tried to find help from the Indonesian Ombudsman, the National Commission on Human Rights (Komnas HAM) and the National Commission on Violence Against Women (Komnas Perempuan). They also got a lawyer, who says that the land acquisitions are illegal: a claim challenged by the AP I.
Losing their houses fields did not stop the farmers from fighting. They still remain in their now demolished village and refuse relocation.
"We're going to stay here and help each other," one local said, "Our house and land are not for sale."

More criticism has been lodged at the United Kingdom government's changes to the Seasonal Agricultural Workers Scheme (SAWS), this time from Alistair Ewan, the director of East of Scotland Growers (ESG).
"Basically, there have not been sufficient numbers of people coming from Europe," said Ewan. "We shall be campaigning to re-open the doors to other countries. We are not bringing in long-term migrants. SAWS was an extremely successful scheme and the government has destroyed it by limiting it to EU countries."
ESG is not alone in their wish for the Home Office to reverse the changes to SAWS. The National Farmers Union (NSU) recently said they would consider legal action in response to the changes.
Originally planned to be terminated completely, the program was kept on for nationals of Romania and Bulgaria when they joined the European Union on 01 January 2007.
The program, first instituted in the 1940s, previously allowed people from non-EU nations to come to the UK temporarily to make money -- and in the case of students studying agriculture -- gain valuable experience.
The loss of cauliflower and broccoli crops were narrowly averted only by moving members of ESG from farm to farm as the harvest arrived, according to Ewan.
Cauliflower and broccoli are not the only crops feeling left out in the cold. An extreme shortage of skilled tractor drivers is being felt as well.
Bruce Hamilton, manager of Tayforth Ring, said he has never experienced such a shortage.
"The main demand for skilled tractor drivers is from potato growers and merchants who now operate with large harvesting set ups. With two harvesters in a field, there is also a need for another three or four drivers with trailers to take the potatoes back to store," Hamilton said.

The Luxury of both Time and clinical Expertise is at your disposal when you have your eye test at Eyewise, Opticians in Uxbridge.
Time is a luxury rarely afforded to you by many Opticians, but at Eyewise Uxbridge, you will receive an eye examination that lasts a full 45 minutes.
This means we can spend time with you, answering your questions and working with you to discover the very best eyewear AND eyecare for your individual needs.
We only use the most advanced clinical equipment, including 3D OCT scanning machine, and Optomap Ultrawidefield Scan. This technology helps us to understand the deeper workings of your eyes, and also monitor conditions such as diabetes, glaucoma and macular degeneration.
While your overall physical well – being is very important, eye health should not be overlooked. Regular eye tests help detect and monitor conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure (hypertension) and cataracts. Early detection can give you a better chance of successful treatment.
For children, regular eye tests are equally important, especially in the formative years when 80% of their learning is done through what they see. We specialise in helping children who have reading and learning difficulties, in our Schoolvision clinic. Eyewise is an approved centre for Colorimetry Assessments.
And for those children who are short sighted (Myopia), we have a great option for Myopia Control, in Eyedream, an overnight contact lens vison correction system that can give freedom of seeing throughout the day without glasses. The system is also suitable for adults with moderate levels of myopia.
Eye diseases can affect your vision at an alarming speed. Attending regular eye examinations will help to combat the onset of eye conditions, and will provide more understanding of the symptoms associated with them.
Our experienced optometrists are trained to identify any eye conditions and general health problems such as diabetes or hypertension that could be a threat to your vision.
Many of the conditions that your optometrist detects through a simple eye examination can be corrected with prescription eye-wear, however, more serious conditions may need further treatment.
Anybody that notices a change in their vision should contact their optometrist as soon as possible to book an eye examination and consultation.


One of the things I shall really look forward to is to see when I go on holiday is the wonderful display of flowers. The bursts of colours always put a smile in my heart. I am always amazed at how creative God is. Large and small, soft and hard, single coloured hues or an incredible combination; the ever-changing size and shapes transform the landscape and views.

He's probably unknown to all the newbies, but any older member will tell you in a second that bvasgm (pronounced "buh-vas-gum") was awesome. Dude was genuinely clever, completely ridiculous, and a great BF2 player to boot. I used to be quite close to him- we'd talk all the time- which is why I got to wondering if he'd fallen off the face of the earth or something.
Turns out I wasn't far off.
He died at the beginning of the school year. This whole time he's been gone and I've had no idea. It's weird, I haven't talked with him in so long, but even now I can remember how he sounded in BF2, laughing in that ridiculously deep voice of his. RIP, Nick- you were too young, but wherever you are, I hope you're happy.
I honestly have no idead who he was, but it sucks to hear that anyway.

Nah, it's definitely him. I'm still friends with him on facebook. His page was covered with RIP notes from friends and family...
Anyway, let's not turn this into a debate over the validity of that page. I created this thread to say goodbye.
oh jesus I remember him

I remember the name, which is more than I can say for a lot of other names around here. Got a vaguely positive feeling connected with it as well. Sucks that that's all I can say Very sad.

Speaking of, anyone know where Pesh's gone? He hasn't been online for over 10 days.

Oh my...we used to speak frequently via PM, we had a lot of run ins. I remember him getting his post count reset a few times, he made a 1000 posts thread and it became synonymous with his borgasm name. He was the only members with the 'Senior Member' title too IIRC.
I can't believe he passed away last year, he was a good looking lad from that picture. He had his whole life ahead...damn, this is horrible

He was a great guy ;(
What? Goddamn, he was one of the best.
Good ****ing god.
I can't believe this, he and I always exchanged happy birthday PMs (he was 4/12, I'm 4/14) and used to chat quite a bit (plus he was present in the BF2 demo glory days). Last time I talked to him was saying happy 18th birthday to him. I wondered recently where he'd got up to, this is completely ****ing awful. Thanks for letting us know JN. Rest in peace Nick ;( It's terribly unfair that you got gypped out of life by some dumb shithead not paying attention at the wheel.
Thread stuck for the older members, he was around quite a bit back in the day and had forum friends besides those who've already posted, and as Stern says it's not often this community loses a member.
I'm quite disturbed by this. I wasn't great friends with him, just another e-buddy, but he was a genuinely friendly, good dude and the world lost something here.

Star-Ledger said:
A Rutgers University sophomore was killed early yesterday when he was struck by a car as he attempted to cross Easton Avenue in New Brunswick, authorities said.
Nicholas Bielik, 18, of Beacon Falls, Conn., was rushed to nearby Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital after the 12:03 a.m. accident near the intersection with Hamilton Street, but he was pronounced dead at 1:52 a.m., police said.
"Everybody heard the screech," said Rutgers student Mike Shaffer, who was sitting on the steps of his apartment house on Hamilton Street with a housemate when the accident occurred. Friends told Shaffer they saw Bielik thrown into the air by the force of the collision and that a crowd of students quickly gathered.
"They were huddled over him. People were saying, `Don't touch him. Don't touch him.' People were crying. The windshield was shattered and pushed-in," said Shaffer, of Manalapan.
The driver of the car, Arnold DeMassi, 21, of New Brunswick, volunteered a blood sample for testing, but New Brunswick police Sgt. Richard Rowe said the accident did not appear to be alcohol-related. DiMassi, who is not a Rutgers student, was driving west on Easton Avenue in his 1993 Nissan Altima when Bielik tried to cross the road about 10 yards from the crosswalk for the intersection a Hamilton Street.
Bielik was a sophomore in the School of Arts and Science. He had not yet declared a major, according to university officials.
Easton Avenue is not on the Rutgers campus, but students rent apartments in many of the houses on Easton Avenue and Hamilton Street. The accident occurred near the university's Institute for Health Care Policy and Aging.
One block east on Easton Avenue is a string of stores and restaurants frequented by students.
"It's definitely dangerous," said student Allie Brand of Red Bank, who also lives in an apartment house on Hamilton Avenue.
"People just walk out on the street," Brand said. "They don't use sidewalks. People run lights."
Police were still investigating the accident yesterday, including where Bielik had been earlier that night. No charges have been filed.
Rutgers officials were reaching out to students who knew Bielik to offer counseling, said E.J. Miranda, university spokesman.

Corner Shot Action Video! Israeli Commando CQB/Urban Warfare Tactics.
David Crane April 10, 2004
by David Crane
First, DefRev published this story, titled Corner Shot. 'Cause You Never Know What's Waiting for You Around the Corner.". We like to think that's a pretty good story. Then, we followed that up with an addendum that contained fairly high-res pics of the Corner Shot brochure (complete).
Now, there's exciting professional video footage of the CornerShot being demonstrated by what appear to be IDF (Israeli Defense Force) Special Operations personnel during CQB (Close Quarters Battle)/Urban Warfare simulations. To view the video…
Click On This Link.
We think you'll be glad you did. This Corner Shot video is the most extensive video we've seen to date on this weapon system. When you click one of the two previous links, you'll get to see the Corner Shot in action during a boat interdiction/takedown, an aircraft interdiction/takedown, a bus interdiction/takedown, a building sweep, and more.
You'll also get to see the CornerShot being rapid-reloaded (with a Glock pistol attached, in this case). I particularly enjoyed the footage of the Corner Shot outfitted with a Glock (9mm) pistol loaded with a 33-round Glock 18 mag. Pretty cool. Oh, and you'll really get a kick out of the camels, donkeys, and one very hyper dog (don't worry, he lives) towards the end of the video. Just a lot lot of great CQB/Urban Warfare footage, here. It's a pretty slick video–high quality and professionally produced. It's also quite lengthy.
And, if you click here, you can see the Corner Shot's inventor/developer, Amos Golan, explaining and demonstrating the Corner Shot during a "Fox News" interview. This video clip also contains Israeli Special Operations CQB/tactical footage. Again, this is a "Fox News" video clip.

David Prince Miller (1809–1873) was a British showman and magician who founded several Adelphi Theatres: in at least Glasgow, Coatbridge and Dumbarton.

Conceptual he created the idea of reduced Shakespeare plays, creating plays which lasted 20 minutes, an idea later followed by the Reduced Shakespeare Company.

Life

From around 1825 he appeared as an illusionist in small theatres and halls in England and southern Scotland.

He came to Glasgow in July 1839 from Dalkeith, setting up a show on Glasgow Green during the Glasgow Fair. Other acts at the same fair included John Henry Anderson. Although Miller only charged one penny for entrance, he netted £70 during the Fair (the equivalent of £7,500 in 2020) and was able to reinvest this money in his travelling show which he took to Stirling Cupar, Dundee, Perth. Kirkcaldy, St Andrews and Dunfermline. He over-wintered in Airdrie before starting the circle again in 1840.

In 1842 (using his profits from the travelling show) he built the Sans Pareil Theatre near the Saltmarket (holding 1200) in central Glasgow and the Adelphi Theatre on the edge of Glasgow Green (holding 2500). The Adelphi was one of only two large theatres at that time and was in rivalry with John Henry Anderson's Theatre Royal. Miller targeted the poorer residents of the city. In 1845 he is listed as "Manager of the Adelphi Theatre" living at 4 Steel Street, close to Glasgow Green. The theatre was timber-built and huge, even by modern standards, holding 2500 spectators. A false alarm in the theatre caused a panic in which an 18-year-old boy received fatal injuries.

In 1848 he sold the theatre to James Calvert of Dublin. It burnt down soon after.

Miller went on tour with a show called "Through Fire and Water". In 1855 Miller was on tour with a play concerning his own life: "The Ups and Downs of Life" which was performed at the Royal Clarence Theatre in London.

In 1863, in partnership with a Walter Edwin, he built an Adelphi Theatre in Coatbridge holding an audience of 1500. Roughly at the same time he also opened an Adelphi Theatre in Dumbarton.

In later life he ran the Prince's Mall Theatre. He was then living at 48 London Street in the centre.

He died on 24 May 1873. He is buried in the lower south section of Glasgow Necropolis.

The Adelphi Theatre in Coatbridge was renamed the Princess Theatre in 1873 having been sold to new owners.

Family

He was married with a namesake son, David Prince Miller and daughter, Elizabeth Miller.

Other Works

In 1853 he published a book of his struggles entitled "The Life of a Showman".

Real estate is one of the most popular alternative assets when an investor wants to shy away from the traditional avenues like bonds and stocks. Regardless of its popularity, it's not necessarily accessible to everyone, namely because the amount needed up front is steep. What more and more retirement savers are discovering is that with the right help and resources, they're able to use their retirement funds to invest in real estate.
Not all retirement accounts are created equal, a majority of IRAs (individual retirement accounts) are managed by an advisor, and the advisor chooses what your funds are invested in. With a self-directed IRA, you're the one making the decisions, you're the one directing your investments, so here's what you should know about investing with a self-directed IRA.
When you open, contribute and use a Traditional self-directed IRA, the income earned off of your investments grow pre-tax. This means that when it comes time to retire, and you take monthly distributions, your retirement income will be taxed as income.
The other option you have is what's called a Roth IRA, and when you open, contribute and use a Roth self-directed IRA, your earned income is contributed after-tax. When you reach retirement age, your Roth IRA distributions are not taxed.
Which type of account you open is up to you, but the differences are stark. Talking to your tax accountant is the best route for deciding which account is best for you.
As a real estate investor, you can easily leverage your IRA by using a percentage of the funds in your IRA to purchase your chosen property and use a non-recourse loan to fund the remaining balance. The reason that you may choose a non-recourse loan over a personal loan is that the non-recourse loan is tied to the real estate it pays for, and not your credit personally. In the case of a default, the lender would seize the real estate property without touching any of your other property or assets. Two things to keep in mind though, one is that the non-recourse loan may have a higher interest as compared to a regular loan, and two, it may be difficult to get approved, since banks are looking at a non-recourse loan as more of a risk for them.
The main reason investors choose real estate is the income that's earned by either buying and flipping for resale or to rent out to businesses or to families. However you choose to utilize the property, it's important to note that since you're buying the property with your self-directed IRA, it's your IRA that owns the property. This means that any gains made on your investment go straight back into your IRA, and vice versa, any money spent on repairs or taxes come from your IRA as well.
As with any investment, there are risks and some rules that could be deal breakers for some investors. Familiarizing yourself with the self-directed IRA rules and following them is just simply a part of the process. Violating rules that are set by the IRS could cause your IRA to get disqualified, and get you fined a percentage of the amount in your IRA.
The property in question cannot be used as a vacation house, or a secondary residence, or be rented out to immediate family. You're also not allowed to do repairs or fixes yourself, you will always have to be at an arm's length when it comes to your property.
One other possibility is that you could run into UBIT, which stands for Unrelated Business Income Tax. UBIT isn't scary, nor does it mean you've done something illegal, it's just a tax that your IRA will pay when using debt leverage to buy property, or does a deal with an organization that doesn't pay corporate taxes.

TUSCALOOSA | The road back to Birmingham ended Friday night for the Central High School Falcons on their rain-soaked home field. They lost to Walker High School 35-30, ending a chance for Central to win back-to-back state championships.
The defending Class 4A state champs finished 9-2 with the second-round 5A playoff loss.
A late fumble, however, ended any hopes of a comeback.
�Unfortunately for us, we don�t get to practice on Monday,� Central coach Melvin Pete said.
The Falcons fell behind early and were down 35-6 at halftime.
Central could not find a rhythm in the first half, only managing 96 yards of offense.
Sophomore quarterback Broderick Hall scored the only points of the first half for the Falcons, finding Kenneth Brown in the end zone for a 4-yard touchdown pass.
In the second half, however, the Falcons� offense nearly doubled the yardage from the first half.
Walker�s offense, however, was well-balanced in the first half and appeared nearly impossible to stop. The Vikings ran for 142 yards in the half and threw for 145. Walker�s first touchdown came on a 14-yard scamper by Henderson. Henderson threw for one more touchdown in the half, a 27-yard toss to Jacob Sparkman.
Junior running back Lamarr Steward added the other three touchdowns for Walker, scoring twice on 4-yard runs and also taking a kickoff 85 yards for a touchdown.
The third quarter started out well for the Falcons, with Walker�s long snapper throwing the ball out of the back of the end zone for a safety on the Vikings� first drive of the half.
Hall contributed two rushing touchdowns of 4 and 1 yard each, and also a two-point conversion pass to junior running back Jerry Pruitt.
Pete said that in addition to losing the ball game, the Falcons are losing a great senior class.
Pete said that he will remember this year�s senior class because of its contributions to Central�s football program.
�We�re going to miss our senior class as a unit,� he said. �The thing about it is that it�s a great group of guys.
