Cardi B says a blogger drove her to suicidal thoughts.
The "WAP" rapper appeared in a federal courtroom in Georgia on Thursday morning (Jan. 13) to testify in her libel lawsuit against gossip vlogger Latasha K.
While taking the stand, Cardi broke down in tears as she described to the jury how she felt after Cobbs' alleged lies about her.
An emotional Cardi said that she even thought about taking her life. "I wanted to commit suicide over the things," she said, according to TMZ.
In early 2019, Cardi filed a lawsuit against Tasha K, who posted a series of videos claiming Cardi had been a prostitute and contracted multiple STIs. In one video, Tasha said Cardi's baby might be born with intellectual disabilities, insinuating that Cardi was doing drugs during her pregnancy.
This occurred shortly after Offset and Cardi welcomed their daughter Kulture. "I felt defeated and depressed and I didn't want to sleep with my husband," said Cardi, adding that she felt like "I didn't deserve my kid."
Cardi's attorney asked what she thought about Tasha after seeing the videos. "I felt like only a demon could do that sh*t," she said before apologizing to the judge for swearing in court.
During a 2018 Instagram Live session, Cardi threatened to sue Tasha for spreading lies. "I'm gonna sue you for defamation of character because I let that bitch play and talk sh*t about me, but when you talk shit about my daughter..," she said. "Bitch you a whole fu**ing weirdo, a bitch that's 40 years old and pregnant too, and then all you can do is talk sh*t about me, ho. F**k outta here."
Cardi faces cross-examination by Tasha's attorney later today.

New Steelhead XR irons mix Callaway's old reliable shape with some modern horsepower
By Mike Stachura
The best ideas aren't always entirely new ones, and despite what your parents might think they aren't entirely old reliable thoughts either. Enter Callaway's Steelhead XR irons, which from the company's perspective, make the case that the best ideas are the right combination of old and new.
The Steelhead XR encompasses certain characteristics from one of the company's most successful irons of a decade ago, the Steelhead X-14, with the horsepower of its wraparound cup face technology of recent vintage seen in irons like the Apex and XR family, the company's most popular irons this year.
"The goal was to use the benefits of that original shape and use the new technology of our face cup to give us the best of both worlds," said Alan Hocknell, Callaway's senior vice president of research and development. "It's taking some of the best parts of that Steelhead X-14 DNA and bringing it up to date with our face cup technology."
One of the keys to the original Steelhead X-14 was its longer blade length. That allowed for the club's center of gravity to be positioned in line with the center of the face, making for a stable head that improved off-center hit performance.
In Callaway's modern face cup design, the face wraps around the sole, topline and toe section thinning out the perimeter to create a larger, more flexible face area in the center. Hocknell says that design enabled irons like the XR to reach a spring-like effect of somewhat under the USGA's limit of .830 (.822 plus a .008 tolerance). With the combination of the X-14's shape and center of gravity configuration, and turbo-boosted by the company's improved understanding of cupface technology, Hocknell says the Steelhead XR now produces a springlike effect at the USGA limit, "up in an area that's really as high as anybody dares go," given USGA restrictions.
Hocknell says Callaway's efforts are so precise that it stations as many as 25 technicians at the manufacturing plants in China to make sure the irons stay under the USGA's speed limits for COR and Characteristic Time. An important part of improving the cupface design is firming up the body that supports the thin face structure so the face recovers in the direction of impact.
But the Steelhead XR does more than take advantage of its faster face. The thin face design, which also benefits from a weight-saving and historically familiar bore-through hosel, also saves weight that can be repositioned in the head. Rather than using that saved weight the same way inside every iron in the set, designers were now free to vary the center of gravity position to better match the needs of each iron in the set. That means the center of gravity sits lower and farther back in the long irons but actually moves higher in the short irons to produce more spin and a lower trajectory for better control.
One key to controlling the center of gravity position is a steel-infused urethane layer within the lower portion of the back cavity. The urethane controls the vibration of the thin to enhance feel, while the steel adds weight to influence center of gravity location.
"By making the CG progressive, you produce better launch conditions and better ballspeed," Hocknell said. "While higher launch and lower spin will help your long irons, you don't want that on your short irons. By making the CG progressive, you give players more control of ballflight."
The company's "standing wave" internal weighting pad is part of the frame that supports the cup face design. It controls the center of gravity position while still allowing the lower portion of the face freedom to bend.
The Steelhead XR will be at retail Sept. 2 ($800 in steel, $1,000 in graphite). Lofts range from 3-iron to L-wedge.

Lawyer: 'Real Housewives of New Jersey' star Teresa Giudice will pay her debts
By Vicki Hyman | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com
BRAVO The lawyer for "Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Teresa Giudice says she will follow her husband's suit by withdrawing her request for bankruptcy discharge.
Less than two days after The Star-Ledger and NJ.com reported that "Real Housewives of New Jersey" husband Joe Giudice abandoned his request to have his debts forgiven, his lawyer says that Teresa Giudice plans to voluntarily pay her debts too.
James Kridel tells People.com that he will file papers to that effect in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Newark.
Joe Giudice agreed to pull his bankruptcy claim earlier this month after pleading the Fifth Amendment when questioned by the trustee for his creditors about allegations the couple hid assets and income.
The couple filed for bankruptcy protection in October 2009 with liabilities of $11 million, including mortgages on three homes and several commercial properties, credit card bills at Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's, utility bills, lawyer's fees, and unpaid balances at a fertility clinic -- all while "Real Housewives" continued to show them spending freely.
"Teresa and Joe are happy about this," Kridel tells People. "Teresa has always wanted to be able to say that she paid her creditors." The Giudices still own three homes including their Towaco mansion, a smaller home in Lincoln Park, and a beach house in Stafford, but Kridel says that apartments they owned have been sold, which allows them to pay off some of their debts.
"She may not be able to pay all [her creditors] with one check, but she can pay them back," he says. "She wants to do the right thing."
The trustee for their creditors filed suit in 2010 alleging the couple concealed income -- mostly Teresa Giudice's $280,000 advance from her cookbook "Skinny Italian" and her monthly salary from "Housewives" of $7,083 -- and property in their original bankruptcy filming, which would be illegal. According to court papers filed earlier this month, when asked about the assets by the trustee, Joe Giudice consulted with a criminal defense lawyer before taking the Fifth. "The defendant Giuseppe Giudice acknowledges his desire to resolve the matter without the need for further inquiry or litigation, and without making any further admissions," the court papers read.
The U.S. Attorney's Office, which prosecutes bankruptcy fraud, does not comment on investigations. A spokeswoman for the U.S. Trustee Program says it does not comment on cases beyond what is in the public record.


Milton Gray Edison was born in Melbourne on 14th August in 1905. He attended Scotch College then went on to obtain his M.D. in Medicine at Melbourne University, before travelling overseas to further his medical experiences. He married in Scotland in 1935 then returned to settle in Burnie Tasmania in a General Practice.
When war broke out he was assigned to the Medical division in Bougainville, as a Lieutenant Colonel, and spent some years there, but he was one of the lucky ones who did return and was able to watch his children grow up.
He always took the salute at Anzac Day marches in Burnie and also in Hobart, and was always very proud to represent King/Queen and Country. When he retired he moved to Sydney with his wife and enjoyed being close to their children. Dr. Edison passed away in 1976, six months after his wife.

In this collaboration with the Washington National Opera, Plácido Domingo performed works of zarzuela, opera, tango, copla, and ranchera that paid tribute to his Spanish and Latin roots.
Renowned tenor, Plácido Domingo, has sung in 126 different roles, more than any other leading tenor in the annals of music. As a conductor he has led opera performances at the Metropolitan, London's Covent Garden, the Vienna Staatsoper, Washington National Opera, and Los Angeles Opera and has conducted purely symphonic concerts with orchestras such as the Berlin Philharmonic, London Symphony, and the Chicago Symphony. He is one of the most decorated artists of today: a Kennedy Center Honoree and Commander of France's Legion of Honor and the recipient of an Honorary Knighthood of the British Empire, a U.S. Medal of Freedom, President Gorbachev's World Award for Humanitarian Causes, and an Opera News Award.
In this concert, Domingo, a Madrid-native who also grew up in Mexico City returned to his roots by performing selections from George Bizet's Carmen and Pablo Luna's El Niño Judio as well as songs by Carlos Gardel, Virgilio Hugo Exposito, and Juan Mostazo Morales, among others.
Domingo was joined by Argentine soprano Virginia Tola. The Washington National Opera Orchestra was led by Alondra de la Parra, whom Domingo called a "brilliant young conductor." The evening was a cultural immersion complete with special guests Mariachi Real de Mexico, the Pablo Zinger Tango Trio, and flamenco and tango dancers led by Nuria Pomares and Valeria Solomonoff.

WESTERN ONTARIO: Sale barn managers worry about long-term impact of COVID-19
on: April 10, 2020 In: News
By Tom Collins
LISTOWEL — Cattle sale barn managers are preparing for a slowdown that might impact sales even this fall.
David Carson Farms and Auction Services at Listowel has shut down the sales barn and cancelled or postponed all live sales due to COVID-19, David Carson told Farmers Forum. "We're doing nothing but getting bills in the mail," he said. "It's devastating. Never in my wildest dreams, I ever thought something like this could ever happen."
One of the concerns from Carson was the age of people who attended his auctions. COVID-19 is deadlier the older one is, and Carson didn't want anyone getting sick from attending one of his sales. As the auction sales are about half of the farm's income, it was a tough decision, especially since spring is usually a busy time, he said.
The original plan was to shut down until the end of April, but Carson is worried it might be a few extra months on top of that. Then it might take a while to see crowds build back up to what they used to be.
Aside from the auctions, Carson raises about 1,800 cattle, half of which are beef and cattle raised for market. He also milks 150 Holsteins and raises heifers. He usually sells about 50-70 fresh heifers a month. Last month, "we might have sold 20."
The dairy-heifer industry was already suffering from lower prices, and some farmers are dumping milk as there isn't anywhere to send the product. "When you're dumping milk, you're not going to buy replacement cattle," Carson said.
Carson did consider moving his auctions to online, but livestock buyers prefer to see the animal in person before a sale. Plus, there's the atmosphere that a live auction brings.
"When you're sitting in the ring with 100 people, and you see three people bidding, then you're probably tempted to bid too," he said. "There's a hype that goes with the auction that you don't get when you go (online)."
Reed Crawford, of River Point Cattle Co. at Glencoe in Middlesex County, holds an annual spring bull sale but this year switched the April 11 sale from a live auction to a treaty sale. Similar to a tag sale, a floor price is determined for each lot. Potential buyers can attend in advance and indicate which animals they like. If only one person is interested in the animal, that buyer gets the lot for the floor price. If there are two or more interested buyers, a mini-auction takes place among those potential buyers.
Crawford is preparing for a potential loss but said the sale is important for the farm's bottom line.
"I wish we were in the financial position that we could have just cancelled it," he said. "We really depend on that for our operations for the year. We had to somehow change it for the income."
The sale normally brings about 100 people to the auction. He didn't want COVID-19 to be spread during a sale on his farm. The decision to switch was made in mid-March before the provincial government limited gatherings of no more than 50 people (it has since been limited to no gatherings of more than five people).
Crawford said this also limits the risk to himself, his wife, Jane, and their two young daughters.
"Did I really want to have that many people around, being in that close contact with that many people, and then if anybody was spreading it, to bring it home?"
Looking ahead, some sales managers are concerned that if there aren't any shows or sales during the summer that could put a damper on sales in the fall. Crawford said that his annual fall sale is even more successful than his spring one and hopes everything will be back to normal by then.
Other sale barns are asking sale barn spectators to stay home instead of treating the sale barn as a social scene. Ab Carroll of the Ontario Stockyards at Cookstown says his sale barn has assigned seating two metres apart and using only every second row.
"As few (buyers) as possible but enough to remain competitive," Carroll said. "This is pretty well the only realistic option."
Payments can be made online and Carroll is asking all buyers to mail in their cheques. Sale barns are also now shying away from dealing with cash, he added.

Later that evening, National Geographic Sea Lion would pull away from the dock and start its long journey down river.


We have bombed an asteroid, finally exacting revenge for what the asteroids did to the dinosaurs.
The Japanese spacecraft Hayabusa-2 on Friday dropped an explosive on a remote asteroid for the first time to form a crater with a view to collect samples of its surface and analyze their composition, which could provide clues to the origin of the Universe. About 40 minutes later, explosives behind the plate detonated, sending the projectile hurtling toward Ryugu at 4,500 miles per hour (7,240 km/h).
Hayabusa2 moved smartly away from the area to avoid being damaged by debris from the explosion or colliding with Ryugu while also releasing a camera to capture images of the event. This image was captured by Hayabusa2's optical navigation camera from about 500 meters above Ryugu. The mission is the riskiest for Hayabusa2, as it has to immediately get away so it won't get hit by flying shards from the blast.
The Japanese spacecraft released the impactor from 1,640ft (500m), then retreated behind Ryugu as the bullet creates a cloud of debris.
Indeed, Hayabusa2 has been extremely busy during its time at Ryugu. (10 kg) lander onto the space rock's surface.
That sample is scheduled to come down under parachute in December 2020, in a special return capsule. "It is highly likely to have made a crater".
The aim of the crater on Ryugu is to throw up "fresh" material from under the asteroid's surface that could shed light on the early days of the solar system. The team running the mission even hopes they'll be able to grab a sample of material from this location, to add to the surface sample the probe collected in February. Japan's space agency JAXA said its Hayabusa2 spacecraft released an explosive onto the asteroid to make a crater on its surface and collect underground samples to find possible clues to the origin of the solar system.
Hayabusa 2 isn't collecting pieces of Ryugu to keep them in deep space. In a similar mission in 2005, NASA blasted the surface of a comet but never recovered the fragments.
A European probe called Hera will aid in this assessment, gauging up close how the impact affects the Didymos system.

MDP asks New Delhi to Stop Military Assistance to the Gayoom Government
2006, September 30 - 3:06am — Desi Italiana
India is the world's largest democracy, right? So why is a "democracy" arming an autocratic regime?
A couple of days ago, I blogged about President Gayoom's autocratic rule in the Maldives and the recent release of Mohamed Nasheed, a senior leader of the Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP). To follow up, the MDP has asked India's help to restore democracy:
The opposition Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP), fighting against President Maumoon Abdul Gayoom's "autocratic" rule, on Monday sought India's role in talks with the (Gayoom) government for ending the "period of repression" and restoring democracy in the island nation.
Expressing disappointment at India's role so far, the MDP also demanded that New Delhi stop its military assistance to the Gayoom government as it was being used only to suppress the opposition activities for restoration of democracy.
About eight per cent of the GDP goes into defence spending and that is supplied by India, Latheef said and demanded that India stop such aid [Link].
Pointing out that the Maldives spent 8 per cent of its Gross Domestic Product on defence, he questioned the rationale behind it. The country did not have any known enemies. It was, perhaps, the most homogenous society on earth. The only conclusion that could be drawn was that the forces would be used to quell dissent [Link].
"We are disappointed with India's role so far. On one hand, India is saying that it does not want to interfere, on the other hand they are donating arms and ammunition to the Maldivian government," he added [Link].
Does this sound familiar? Say, another "democracy" that arms and gives military aid to dictatorships and other unsavory characters (Hint: a huge country in North America)? Furthermore,
Despite ongoing concerns about human rights abuses in the Maldives, India sold a fast-attack warship to Gayoom earlier this year.
That sale caused consternation in opposition circles, with senior MDP officials questioning why "the world's largest democracy is arming the world's smallest dictatorship." [Link].
Latheef's bone of contention, is, in a nutshell:
It was disappointing to note that there had been no statement from India supporting the democratic movement in the Maldives. The Maldivian Government was using the defence aid provided by India against its citizens.
The present regime was using four tools to govern: Islam; use of coercive institutions of society; control over the media; well-entrenched system of patronage. The President was using Islam as a major legitimising factor to hang on to power [Link].
Talking to reporters during an official MDP trip to India last week, Latheef pointed out that "for 28 years, there has only been one name on the ballot paper in the Maldives."
"Maldivians will not wait another two years for that to change. Holding of free and fair elections before the scheduled date of October 2008 remains the fundamental issue for establishing a genuine democracy in Maldives," he said [Link].
And so the story goes on. "Democracies" empower non democracies, and people fighting for democracy are fighting an uphill battle....

Thanks for the informative post!
people fighting for democracy are fighting an uphill battle….
This line got me thinking. I was reading a book recently (Revolutionaries by Hobsbawn) that discussed various strategies through which people fight for "democracy" or some substitute term that would probably be applicable here actually end up doing it. So I pose this as an open question because I have no idea what the answer is: what does a "pro-democracy" movements need to look like to be both effective, egalitarian, and libertarian in The Maldives? Generally speaking, how much can you state this in universal terms (i.e. across societies and situations)?
Hoping they provide access to the Internet in The Maldives or other small or large dictatorships/fascist states :)

Well. The Maldives has
Well. The Maldives has loosened its grip on the Internet.. and certain political websites that were earlier censored are now allowed. While on one hand the Government has allowed opposition media to function - on the other it has continued to arrest and intimidate free journalists.
Yes, the democracy movement is an uphill task in my country, especially given the lack of open support and pressure from neighbourhood democracies like India that claim to promote social freedom. India's stand on the Maldives issue as well as the Tibetan issue is quite dubious. So also its reaction to the Nepal crisis and it's hands-off approach to the civil war in Sri Lanka.

Do I have to go to court to challenge a Will or can I do it out of court?
Estate disputes can settle outside of court through mediation or even informal settlement conferences between the parties (and their representatives).
Mediation is a formal process where all parties attend a conference, overseen by an independent mediator, with the objective of resolving the dispute over the Will or deceased estate. If an agreement is reached at mediation, the court will often grant orders that give effect to the agreement. If an agreement is not reached at mediation then the dispute goes on for a hearing before a court. Litigation can be settled at any time prior to a court handing down a judgment.
In addition to, or alternatively, a dispute can be settled by an informal settlement conference between the parties or even by correspondence between them. As with mediation, an agreement reached between the parties can be given effect (that is, ordered) by a court. If no agreement can be reached by any means, then the dispute goes to hearing before a court.
Who can contest a Will in the ACT?
In the ACT, the persons who are eligible to make a claim against an estate may include:
the deceased's partner;
the domestic partner of the deceased;
the deceased's child;
the deceased's stepchild;
the deceased's grandchild; and
the deceased's parents.
Not all of these people are automatically eligible to make a claim – there are factors that must be satisfied to ensure eligibility.
When considering whether or not an applicant is a 'domestic partner' of the deceased, a court considers whether or not there existed "a personal relationship between the applicant and the deceased" in which one provided personal or financial commitment and support of a domestic nature for the material benefit of the other.
If you are a former partner of the deceased, you are not explicitly considered an eligible person in the ACT. However if you were in a relationship with the deceased for a specified period of time, or had a child with the deceased, you may be eligible. Conversely, in NSW, former wives or husbands of the deceased are considered eligible applicants.
How long do I have to contest a Will the ACT?
In the ACT, once Probate or Administration has been granted to the Executor or Administrator, you must make a claim against the estate within six months of this grant. In NSW, you have 12 months from the date of death.
A court has the discretion to grant an extension of time if you intend to make a claim for further provision after the above time periods have lapsed.
What does the court consider?
If someone is eligible to make a family provision claim, the court looks at various elements of the deceased's and claimant's life to decide if the claimant should get anything, including:
the nature and duration of the relationship between the deceased and claimant;
the respective incomes and financial positions of the deceased (before death) and claimant;
how healthy (physically and mentally) the deceased was (before death) and the claimant is; and
who else might be eligible or want a distribution from the estate.
A court is not concerned with what is 'fair' (for example: because there are three children, does not mean the estate will be split three ways). A wide variety of factors are considered. For example, a court cannot make an order about distributing money or assets from an estate based on fairness alone.
Challenging a Will—do you stand a chance?
Where there's a Will, there's a way… to determine capacity


If you are unable to make any of our Open Days and events or would like to arrange a visit for a possible immediate start for your son/daughter, then we would be delighted to show you around our school.
Visits generally start at 1100 and last up to 1.5 hours. During a visit we will aim to show you at least one classroom, the library, other areas of the school site and the relevant boarding house. When arranging a visit it would be useful to know your son/daughter's favourite subject and, if this subject is being taught during your visit, we will try and visit it.
We would, however, encourage you to try and book one of our our events which also consist of presentations and will give you much more information as well as a chance to meet with other prospective families.

Forest Service wins A to Z
August 11, 2017 August 11, 2017 by Jon Haber
The Ninth Circuit affirmed the district court denial of a preliminary injunction for the North Fork Mill Creek A to Z Project on the Colville National Forest, which has been discussed here. Of note, the question of contractor-NEPA was not addressed, although the court said that the Forest Service "reviewed and approved" the EA, and "The Forest Service subsequently retracted and revised the EA to address concerns raised by the public."
That's right, an EA on a 13,000 acre logging project with some at-risk species. How could that be? The short answer is essentially full mitigation of effects. For pine marten and fisher, the plaintiffs agreed that goals in the forest plan would protect the habitat, and that the project was consistent with those goals by correctly identifying the habitat and leaving it alone. The legal arguments they made were more technical and weaker. So, while there are some differences here from the Colorado Tennessee project in lynx habitat, it appears that the Colville forest-wide conservation strategy for these species also simplified the project NEPA process. Full mitigation basically also occurred for sediment and open road density (It also probably didn't hurt that, "The project was the result of a multi-year collaboration among elected officials, environmental organizations, Native American tribes, the timber industry, and community organizations." And maybe that had something to do with why the FS agreed to this degree of mitigation.)
The opinion includes an interpretation of the 2012 Planning Rule's requirement for the use of the "best available scientific information in the forest planning process" (despite the fact that the new Planning Rule does not apply to either the existing plan or to any projects). Quoting a Ninth Circuit case: A party challenging the Forest Service's scientific analysis cannot simply "cite studies that support a conclusion different from the one the Forest Service reached" and must instead provide "scientific studies that indicate the Forest Service's analysis is outdated or flawed."

"I understand firefighter safety, but you have to put people on the fire."
1 thought on "Forest Service wins A to Z"
Jon Haber
In case the FS is wondering how to win a lawsuit on NFMA's viability requirement (and to get the Alliance for the Wild Rockies to "concede") …
https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/forest-service-properly-analyzed-15864/
I don't often see Forest Service cases covered by legal blogs, but this 9th Circuit opinion seems to be viewed as important. Their summary also highlights a point that I didn't include in my summary (I guess because it was just reiterating prior case law):
"The use of a species' habitat as a proxy for its viability is known as the "habitat-as-proxy" approach. The use of the species as an indicator of the population of other similar species is known as the "proxy-on-proxy" approach. In the EA, the Forest Service relied on the habitat-as-proxy approach to determine the project would not adversely impact the pine marten, and the proxy-on-proxy approach to determine the project would not adversely impact the fisher."
"Proxy approaches are allowed where both the Forest Service's knowledge of what quality and quantity of habitat is necessary to support the species and the Forest Service's method for measuring the existing amount of habitat are reasonably reliable. The Alliance conceded that the Forest Service had reasonably accurate knowledge of both the quantity and quality of pine marten habitat to support the species and that the Forest Service's method of measuring the existing amount of habitat was reasonably reliable."
The 2012 Planning Rule adopts a proxy approach. The planning record needs to describe the ecological conditions (quantity and quality) necessary for a species to persist in the plan area.

Home › eBooks › Encyclopedia of Censorship, New Edition
Go to Hardcover
Authored by: Gardner
Dewey Number: 098
Although censorship may seem like a thing of the past, current controversies over books, movies, and Web sites prove it to be a very timely and critical issue. Encyclopedia of Censorship, New Edition presents a full range of information about the history and evolution of censorship and its role in society.
Covering all forms of expression—from the office of the censor in ancient Rome to the Internet in the computer age—this reference examines every facet of this complex subject. With an easy-to-use A-to-Z format perfect for high school and college students as well as anyone with an interest in censorship and its politics, Encyclopedia of Censorship, New Edition features entries on Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Judy Blume, Christian Coalition, the Harry Potter series, Stephen King, and more.
"This easy-to-read source is an excellent addition to the library's reference section as well as a helpful source for high school and college students..."
"The strengths of this resource are its relevance and its breadth of international and national data...Excellent research and timely subject matter..."
"...a serious resource appropriate for a general readership (high school level and above)...This edition substantially updates and expands the first..."
Reference and Research Book News
"...more than 50 percent new material has been added to provide the latest details on censorship issues from ancient times to the modern computer age. An A-Z format lends to student research, while many an adult will find its references to politics and social issues essential to understanding the latest contemporary arguments."
Bookwatch
"The articles are brief, clear, and useful for introductory information...this volume is an excellent resource."
"...a welcome addition to any library wanting a resource on past and present censorship throughout the world. Recommended."


Its small size makes this pot perfect for making sauces, cooking for two, or simply reheating portions of soups and stews. The narrow base is also perfect for making scrambled eggs in the classic french style: over low heat with constant whisking. A basic necessity in any cookware set, the 2.2 litre casserole by Silga serves a multitude of purposes and excels and each one. All cookware is 100% made in Italy. Lids sold separately.

Steel Construction SaveEmail Tucking the treehouse into the woodland and using native tree species like oak and white cedar for the lumber — some of it harvested on-site, some sourced locally and milled — helped the structure fit in with in the environment. "The most interesting part is the live tree that grows through the center of the structure," Skwira says. "It was one of the largest trees on the property and was a natural fit for the structure." Generous holes cut for the tree trunk allow the tree to continue to grow up through the treehouse, while the posts of the building support the weight of the structure.

Top 5 NFT Coins To Buy In June 2022
Buy Cryptos Now
Last Updated June 6th 2022
Here are the top NFT coins to buy to get your fair share in the booming NFT marketplace.
Many NFT coins have gained considerable value ever since they entered the crypto space. As this popular crypto sub-sector has recorded tremendous growth in the past year, several potential altcoins and NFT cryptos are seeing an increase in adoption rate. Here are the top 5 NFT coins to buy in June 2022 to support the growth and economy of NFT and metaverse projects.
MANA is one of the top NFT coins to buy in June, thanks to its 3D immersive experiences.
Decentraland is a virtual real estate platform that offers users the chance to create, experience, and monetize content and applications. The popularity of the metaverse concept has fueled the adoption of Decentraland's in-game items. Players can buy LAND NFTs and other digital assets in Decentraland using the MANA token. MANA can also be used to pay for avatars, wearables, names, and more.
One of the interesting features of Decentraland is that the land plots in the marketplace are structured as NFTs, which can be traded with other users and even be monetized. This has made Decentraland home to many of the most popular NFT games, making MANA one of the top 5 NFT coins. With all its unique features, Decentraland has become the focal point of the Metaverse ecosystem.
Crypto asset investing is highly volatile and unregulated in some EU countries. No consumer protection. Tax on profits may apply.
The impressive capital inflows from major players have solidified SAND's position as one of the top 5 coins to buy in June.
Sandbox is an innovative play-to-earn game that integrates both blockchain technology and NFTs in a three-dimensional (3D) metaverse. The major focus of Sandbox is on user-generated content that develops the platform.
The platform allows users to create 3D objects in the Metaverse, such as people, animals, and tools, and sell their in-game assets and NFT works. Sandbox aims to revolutionize the gaming industry, making it an alluring opportunity that provides investors with many options for capital appreciation.
Moreover, interest from the gaming industry experts is necessary for any metaverse project to expand beyond a community of hobbyists. Sandbox has support from corporate giants like Atari, who have purchased land in The Sandbox.
The rising popularity of BAYC would drive the price of APE to new highs.
ApeCoin is an Ethereum-based token linked to the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) non-fungible tokens. The token was distributed by the ApeCoin DAO, a decentralized autonomous organization with several members having ties to YugaLabs, a company that owns the rights to Bored Apes, Mutant Apes, CryptoPunks, Meebits, and Kennel Club NFT projects.
Although recently launched, APE is seeing increasing adoption and hype from celebrities, positioning it in the list of the top 5 NFT coins to buy in June 2022. For instance, the Otherside launched an initial sale of digital real estate that could only be purchased with ApeCoin. Additionally, there are plans for ApeCoin to be integrated as a form of payment in YugaLabs-based metaverse games.
Axie Infinity, one of the top NFT coins, has established itself as the future of blockchain gaming.
Axie Infinity Shards or AXS is the token behind the play-to-earn blockchain game Axie Infinity. Each Axie is an NFT that has unique traits and powers, which could be upgraded using experience points gathered from battles. This blockchain-based trading and battling game is represented by Axies, the in-game NFT characters.
The game allows users to purchase non-fungible tokens of Pokémon-like monsters and fight against each other in battles. Moreover, players can also earn a second token called Smooth Love Potion (SLP) and trade this token for money in exchange.
Axie Infinity has marked its name as the top NFT marketplace that builds games that users love to spend time enjoying. Moreover, if Axie Infinity continues to invest in its fans through initiatives like the Builder's Program, its fanbase will likely deepen their loyalty, boosting AXS's adoption rate. Therefore, if you want to know which NFT coin to buy in June 2022, we would recommend Axie Infinity.
Stepn (GMT)
Although GMT was founded less than a year ago, it has become one of the top NFT coins to buy in June 2022.
STEPN is a unique crypto token that uses the Solana blockchain and introduces the innovative concept of "move-to-earn." Users can seamlessly make passive income by engaging in regular physical activities using move-to-earn apps.
However, the massive uptrend in GMT price has been due to the hype surrounding DeFi projects that reward users with tokens for staying active and promoting a healthy lifestyle. STEPN also offers NFT sneakers on its in-app marketplace. Users can play STEPN and earn the in-game Green Satoshi Token (GST) by using these NFT sneakers.
According to its creators, STEPN is a Web 3 lifestyle app with social-fi and game-fi elements. The crypto encourages its users to socialize with one another while living a healthier lifestyle by gamifying movement and fitness.
Why do we think STEPN is one of the top NFTs to buy in June 2022? The answer lies in its recent earnings report, which shows that the project has made a profit of $26.81 million from its NFT Marketplace trading and royalty fees in Q1 2022 alone.
NFTs have significantly boomed in the past year and are seeing remarkable adoption today. To help you choose the best, here are the top 5 NFT coins to buy in June 2022. These cryptos have a crucial role in NFT's play-to-earn economy and the unfolding metaverse, making them a good investment option.
