A performance that maintained the pattern of the season to date, as Town contended well against Arsenal who were made to work hard for maximum points which ultimately headed back to the Capital.
Alex Iwobi's deflected strike 15 minutes in and Alex Lacazette's tap-in just before half-time all but wrapped up the victory for Unai Emery's men, although another positive performance had something to show for it in injury-time as Sead Kolašinac turned into his own net under pressure from home debutant Karlan Grant.
Jan Siewert made four changes in response to the defeat in west London a week previous, two of which enforced due to Jonas Lössl and Chris Löwe being struck down by illness. Ben Hamer and Mathias Zanka slotted in, as did Jason Puncheon and the returning Jonathan Hogg in the places of Isaac Mbenza (calf) and Philip Billing.
Town started brightly with the direct running of Adama Diakhaby, but so did the London visitors. Terence Kongolo perfectly recovered on the slide to halt the progress of Alexandre Lacazette inside the area after the Frenchman had neatly been played in by Alex Iwobi.
Iwobi had a chance of his own moments later and duly took it, albeit via a generous degree of fortune.
The Nigerian volleyed Kolašinac's far-post cross towards goal, and it eventually found the back of the net via a cruel deflection off Terence Kongolo which seemed to catch Ben Hamer by surprise as the 15-minute mark passed.
Town responded though, and an out-swinging Aaron Mooy corner fell to Jason Puncheon on the edge of the area. Puncheon's resulting strike struck Laurent Koscielny, leading to vocipherous calls for a penalty; referee Jonathan Moss was quick to wave away such claims, however.
Despite going behind, there were several positives to Town's play. Pinning their opponents in deep in their own territory to force mistakes, as well as the energy and pace of Adama Diakhaby consistently taking it to marker Nacho Monreal on his desired right-flank.
Although there had been no meaningful chances of sort for the men in blue and white, Jan Siewert would've been suitably pleased with his side's application throughout the first period.
But as encouraging as the first-half may have been, Lacazette would strike a bitter blow just a minute before the interval. The former Lyon striker - unmarked at the far post - couldn't miss from a yard, tapping home Ainsley Maitland-Niles low delivery across the face of goal.
2-0 down maybe, but Siewert's Terriers came out with a real spring in their steps. Diakhaby swept Kongolo's cross powerfully towards the corner which forced Bernd Leno into a smart save down low to prevent the scoreline from being deservedly halved.
Still Town battled. Substitute Erik Durm was unlucky to see a cross divert off Mustafi onto the bar, before Diakhaby couldn't turn home in space having received a loose deflection from the initial shot at goal from the left boot of Jason Puncheon.
Ben Hamer had to produce a save of his own to thwart Alex Iwobi from poaching a third on the break. Iwobi lost the attention of the blue and white shirts in a clever position down the left, and after being found by Lacazette, the finish was to be desired.
Back at the other end, Elias Kachunga may well have thought he'd got Town back into the contest, reacting sharply to the rebound of Adama Diakhaby's parried shot by Leno. Kache aimed to prod home but was beaten to the punch by a determined Nacho Monreal in the nick of time.
Town's spirit and determination was excellent. Laurent Depoitre was inches from finding the corner having latched onto a perfectly weighted Tommy Smith ball down the channel, which split Monreal and Koscielny. Unfortunately for Lolo - and what summed up this season's offensive luck - it sailed agonisingly past the wrong side of the post.
Karlan Grant nearly had an immediate impact. Leno scrambled to deny Depoitre's charge towards the loose ball, and as the rebound dropped, the January recruit from Charlton rounded the German 'keeper before being sandwiched by a duo of Mustafi and Koscielny who in turn cleared away off the line as Karlan looked to fire home.
Arsenal would ultimately take the points back down South, but that wasn't without a frantic finish.
Town deservedly got on the scoresheet in injury-time; Kolašinac looked to have prodded into his own net under pressure from that man Grant, to give the ever-superb Terriers faithful something to shout about on what had been an undoubtedly positive afternoon despite falling just short.
No action next weekend as the FA Cup Fifth Round takes centre stage, so Town return to action in a fortnight's time with a trip to the North East to face Newcastle United (Saturday 23 February 2019, 3pm).

Finance and Tranche
In French, tranche means "slice." Cutting deeper into the word's etymology, we find the Old French word trancer, meaning "to cut." Tranche emerged in the English language in the late 19th century to describe financial appropriations. Today, it is often used specifically of an issue of bonds that is differentiated from other issues by such factors as maturity or rate of return. Another use of the French word tranche is in the French phrase une tranche de vie, meaning "a cross section of life." That phrase was coined by the dramatist Jean Jullien (1854-1919), who advocated naturalism in the theater.

Q: NOT LIKE on mysql query I have a big problem understanding why a query works when using LIKE in query and not working when using NOT LIKE.
I will post query below:
select DISTINCT (mails), name
from disposable
    JOIN (
            SELECT DISTINCT (mail) as mails,
                   CONCAT(toys.firstname, ' ' , toys.lastname) as name
            FROM toys2
                join toys ON toys.userid = toys2.id
            where ( (toyid = '27' or toyid = '29')
                    and status != 'Sold'
                    and toys.regdate >= '2017-01-01'
                  )
        ) as tab
WHERE tab.mails LIKE CONCAT('%@', disposable.email)

A: I think what you want is something more like the following. Note that I simplified the schema a bit so as to do a bit less work for the SQL Fiddle.
SELECT c.email, c.name
  FROM customer c LEFT JOIN disposable d
    ON SUBSTR(c.email, INSTR(c.email, '@')+1, LENGTH(c.email)-INSTR(c.email, '@')) = d.email
 WHERE d.email IS NULL;

Basically, here you're getting the domain of the customer and matching it to the entry in the disposable table. The final WHERE clause uses IS NULL to determine the customer email addresses that are not disposable - use IS NOT NULL to find the ones that are.
Hope this helps.

Where has this year gone? Seriously. One minute it's January and we're all settling back into the regularity of work and thinking about our business ambitions to find X number of new clients this year.
And the next minute … it's October.
Autumn has well and truly set in. The clocks will be going back in a couple of weeks. Halloween's around the corner. And then, it's the slippery slope to Christmas and New Year, before starting all over again.
So how do you feel about this year's business vision? Have you accomplished your goals? Do you feel in control? Calm? Content with where your business is at?
Yes? Wow, well done! You definitely deserve a huge pat on the back. It's not easy running, let alone growing, a successful business. So if you've managed to achieve that whilst not working crazy hours, running your home and having time for yourself, then you are exactly where I know a lot of us would love to be (so perhaps you can give us your tips in the comments section below).
If, on the other hand, you haven't quite got there yet – you may be pleased with the direction your business is heading, but you're feeling stressed. You're working long hours. You don't have much time for yourself and you're not sure how to create that elusive work/life balance.
And no, I'm not talking about spiritual new age hippy stuff.
I'm talking about using a tested technique to create greater awareness. To help you concentrate on the 'here and now'. To remove clutter from your head. To achieve greater clarity and focus.
But in fact 'mindfulness' isn't anything new. Buddhists have been practising their own form of mindfulness for centuries. In the 70's 'mindfulness', as it's known today, was introduced to the West and today it's used by doctors and psychologists when treating patients to overcome disorders, combat stress and improve well-being.
Doctors saw grey matter within the hippocampus – an the area of the brain associated with learning, memory, self-awareness, contemplation and compassion – increase, when taking an MRI scan of participants who practised mindfulness.
In addition, the grey matter of the Amygdala, which plays a significant part in how stressful and anxious we become, decreased.
All this is going on in your head at the same time.
Later that morning, you start going through your emails. The phone rings. The postman comes to the door. A client needs a last minute change to their presentation. Another client asks for a social media strategy. All thrown in amongst your already lengthy list of daily tasks.
So you get stuck in.
You start on one task, but then switch to the next when your client starts chasing. Then you have to stop that task to answer the phone … again. Nothing gets finished.
The next minute you look up and it's 4pm and you don't feel you've accomplished anything!
The kids will be home from school soon. You need to head out to grab some things for dinner. You didn't make it to the gym … again.
Later that evening, you frantically finish the report that was due out. You respond to those emails that you didn't get a chance to earlier. You update your to-do list for the next day, which seems to have grown – rather than diminished.
You roll into bed, exhausted. Stressed. Yet wide awake.
In business, mindfulness empowers you. It helps you have greater clarity and focus. It stops you dwelling on the annoyance of a client from yesterday, or worrying about whether a client is going to ditch you for someone else.
All of these things we have no control over. One is in the past, the other in the future. The only thing you can control, is what's happening in the present.
As a Virtual Assistant, being mindful enables you to cut out the clutter. Stop worrying about what happened or what could potentially happen. Instead focus on that one project you're working on. Give it 100% attention.
Conversely by doing so, you'll produce better results in shorter periods of time. You'll feel more in control and your clients will see greater value in you and be impressed.
It's not difficult to start becoming more aware. You can do it anywhere and I urge you to start today.
If you're feeling stressed about work (or home) life, stop. Close your eyes and simply breathe in and out. In and out. Listen to your breathing. Listen to the sounds around you.
If you feel your mind start to wander, quickly reel it back in. And concentrate on breathing. The birds tweeting. The noise on the road outside. The dog barking.
Then translate this into your work.
Create your task list for the day. Start a task and concentrate on it 100%. If you need to switch the phone and your emails off for an hour whilst you work, do it. You'll give so much more to the task and you'll complete it in half the time. I assure you.
Remember, you're in control of your business. Not your clients.
Once you start being more mindful, you'll stop dwelling on past issues or worrying about losing a potential client in the future. Instead you'll be living in the present.
Your stress levels will lessen. You anxieties about work will reduce.
In fact, your work will become more thorough, considered, polished. And your clients will feel more valued.
Progressive companies such as Apple and Google are now advocating mindfulness at work. Isn't it time you do too?

Q: Controlling tab space in a  using CSS? Is it possible to specify how many pixels, etc. the tab space occupies in a <pre> using CSS?

for example, say i have a piece of code appearing in a <pre> on a web page:

function Image()
{
    this.Write = function()
    {
        document.write(this.ToString());
        return this;
    };
    ...
}
Image.prototype = new Properties();
...

is it possible to specify a different amount of space the tab indents the line using CSS?

If not, is there any workarounds?

A: While the above discussion provides some historical background, times have changed, and more relevant information and possible solutions can be found here: Specifying Tab-Width?
attn admin: possible duplicate of ref'ed question.

A: From CSS 2.1, § 16.6.1 The 'white-space' processing model:

All tabs (U+0009) are rendered as a horizontal shift that lines up the start edge of the next glyph with the next tab stop. Tab stops occur at points that are multiples of 8 times the width of a space (U+0020) rendered in the block's font from the block's starting content edge.

CSS3 Text says basically the same thing.
From HTML 4.01 § 9.3.4 Preformatted text: The PRE element

The horizontal tab character (decimal 9 in [ISO10646] and [ISO88591] ) is usually interpreted by visual user agents as the smallest non-zero number of spaces necessary to line characters up along tab stops that are every 8 characters. We strongly discourage using horizontal tabs in preformatted text since it is common practice, when editing, to set the tab-spacing to other values, leading to misaligned documents.

If you're concerned with leading tabs, it's a simple matter to replace them with spaces.
/* repeat implemented using Russian Peasant multiplication */
String.prototype.repeat = function (n) {
    if (n<1) return '';
    var accum = '', c=this;
    for (; n; n >>=1) {
        if (1&n) accum += c;
        c += c;
    }
    return accum;
}
String.prototype.untabify = function(tabWidth) {
    tabWidth = tabWidth || 4;
    return this.replace(/^\t+/gm, function(tabs) { return ' '.repeat(tabWidth * tabs.length)} );
}


Numerous carvings and writings in several languages have been found on the barracks walls of the Angel Island Immigration Station. Some are simple statements, the equivalent of "I was here" or a name with a date. Still other writings have yet to be translated and understood.
The Angel Island Immigration Station was in operation from 1910 to 1940. During World War II, the site was used to hold prisoners of war and as a temporary deportation center for Japanese nationals returning to Japan. Afterwards, the U.S. Army abandoned the buildings, and the California State Parks (CSP) Administration had plans to demolish the entire site.
The writings and carvings were rediscovered in 1970 by CSP Ranger Alexander Weiss, who brought two scholars from San Francisco State University, George Araki and Mak Takahashi to photograph them.
Today, the Angel Island Immigration Station Foundation (AIISF) has successfully raised awareness and funding to preserve and restore the site as a National Historic Landmark. Phase One of a major restoration effort begins in November 2004.
Many of the poems are still visible on the walls; others are obscured by aging wood or layers of paint. Architecture Resources Group (ARG), a San Francisco architecture firm that specializes in historic preservation and is conducting the renovation of the site, has discovered that some of the carvings were filled in with wood putty, then covered over with paint. ARG will undertake the laborious process of undoing this mask, which, ironically, has served to preserve the carvings.
Most of the poems are written in the styles of classical Chinese poetry which originated during the T'ang Dynasty period -- the same period that gave root to many of the widely known Chinese poets such as Li Bai (or Li Po), Tu Fu, and Wang Wei. The main formats are five characters per line (wu-yan-jue-ju or wu-yan-li-shi) or seven characters per line (qi-yan-jue-ju or qi-yan-li-shi), with four or eight lines in most poems.
The poems express a range of thoughts and feelings -- longing, sorrow, and personal avowals -- about dealing with the hardships of migrating so far from home and the difficult conditions that determined the authors' detention, admittance or deportation. The poets describe the poverty they left behind, the family hopes that accompanied them in their quest for a new life, and the frustration with China's political situation and chronic poverty. They also offer advice to successive generations of would-be immigrants, encouraging them to work hard, to treasure the precious opportunity to do well in America, and to remember those left behind.
The poets were primarily Chinese who spoke the Cantonese and Toisanese dialects. When read aloud, many of the poems rhyme in those dialects, but they do not always rhyme in Mandarin. You can listen to the audio streams of some of the poems on this website in order to hear the difference.
The poems were probably written by those who were detained for long periods or those awaiting deportation. The majority are unsigned and undated, but they were most likely written before 1930s. Many of the poems were very likely composed by several authors working in succession. There contain many references to famous literary or folk heroes, Confucius, and other figures in Chinese folklore known to have faced hard times. Such references reveal that the authors were highly literate and well educated.
For more information about the ongoing work to preserve the Angel Island Immigration Station writings and the research into their meanings, go to the websites for the Angel Island Immigration Station Foundation and Architectural Resources Group.

Heritage Ability
Our team works with heritage sites across the south west supporting them in improving the customer experience for disabled people and Deaf people who use British Sigh Language
The South West of England is brimming with heritage; from country parks, to historic houses, castles and rugged coastlines. It's here to be enjoyed by everyone – but not everyone can. We understand that some disabled and Deaf people (who use British Sign Language) struggle to experience these places because of physical barriers, a lack of accessible interpretation and untrained staff and volunteers.
Our Heritage Ability team are working with heritage sites and popular visitor attractions supporting them to improve their access, both physical and in the information they produce, so that everyone can visit and enjoy the experience. So far the team have worked with over twenty destinations.
Easy Read guides to large print formats, BSL tours and more
How does the team help improve visitor experience? By connecting people with places through the creation of Easy Read Guides, large print formats, all terrain mobility hire and BSL tours.
Our solutions for people:
…with learning disabilities
Many of the destinations have complex histories and stories that can be overwhelming. We're making Easy Read products to break down these barriers so they they can access their heritage.
…with visual impairments
Particularly in museum settings, the written information can be inaccessible for people with visual impairments. We're making large print guides with accompanying maps, to help them unlock the information and navigate around the attraction.
…who use British Sign Language
For Deaf people who use British Sign Language (BSL), we'll be working with the community to create BSL Tours. Take a look at our locations pages to see where these are currently available. They are also available to view on our YouTube channel.
…who are autistic
One of the biggest challenges for an autistic person is fear of the unknown. We're creating Visual Stories, guides that will detail what can be unwelcome surprises at the destinations so they feel more at ease and prepared before a visit.
…with limited mobility
Many of the heritage places we're working with will benefit from an all-terrain mobility scooter (or 'Tramper'). This will enable those with limited mobility to access the outdoors like never before. The Tramper's are part of an existing Living Options Devon scheme called Countryside Mobility.
…who need training
We train staff and volunteers in Disability Awareness and Deaf Awareness training.
You can find out more about Heritage Ability and the locations where you can find our accessible solutions on our dedicated website www.heritageability.org
Get Involved – we are always looking for people to support us in improving access and services for disabled and Deaf people – through mystery shoppers and volunteers to test out our guides and solutions.

Spending a holiday in Lignano Sabbiadoro is a pleasant and enjoyable experience. Actually, the resort on the Adriatic coast offers numerous opportunities for fun and relaxation, where everyone - families, young people and children - can have unforgettable experiences.
The city of Lignano is traditionally divided into the three districts of Sabbiadoro, Pineta and Riviera and extends along the peninsula between the lagoon of Marano, the river Tagliamento and the Adriatic Sea. Its geographical structure gives the resort eight kilometres of uninterrupted beach of fine golden sand, which was awarded the Blue Flag, the prestigious European award that certifies the preservation and cleanness of the beach and the sea. Along the coast are numerous tourist facilities, restaurants, bars and well-equipped beaches, even for four-legged friends and covered by a Wi-Fi connection.
In Lignano are also various attractions and theme parks where adults and children can spend several days and find alternatives to the beach. Aquasplash, Gulliverlandia and Zoo Punta Verde can enrich your holiday with special memories and offer educational activities for children.
The holiday in Lignano also allows you to combine beach activities and sports that can be practised along the beach and historical-cultural and natural tours and excursions. From Lignano Sabbiadoro the most famous and beautiful art cities in Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia regions, like Venice, Padua, Verona and Trieste are within easy reach, and you can book one of the many boat trips that allow you to admire the beautiful natural landscape of the Lagoon of Marano.
Even the night life is full of fun for everyone, families, young people and children. Fairground, parties on the beach, clubs, restaurants, many souvenir shops and boutiques of Italian haute couture open until late make it pleasant to walk along the down-town streets or the sea front, giving holidays in Lignano Sabbiadoro a unique and special flavour.


Map painted by Jeff Shyluk. Shuttle painted by Earl J. Woods.
Ambassador Fox paced up and down the narrow aisle of the shuttlecraft, fists tightly clenched behind his back, his once freshly-pressed robes wrinkled and smeared with space soot.
"So there's nothing you can do?" he asked for the fifth time.
Red-shirted Ensign Gomez pressed his lips together to bite back an exasperated retort. Instead he shook his head mutely as he worked the shuttle controls in a futile effort to at least shut down the malfunctioning impulse drive.
"The Edmonton and the Encounter are on their way," he reminded the ambassador. "They'll pick us up in minutes, and then we'll be on our way home.
Fox leaned over the empty co-pilot seat and peered out the transparent aluminum solar windshield. Space writhed with the pink-violet hues of the Etsell nebula. "I don't see anything."
Gomez restrained himself from sighing. "They're still hundreds of thousands of kilometres away - hang on."
A small red light began to flash on Gomez' control panel. Gomez winced.
"Two contacts bearing 323 mark 7, coming out of the Neutral Zone," he reported. "Romulans."
Fox began to sweat. His worst case scenario was materializing before his eyes. Damn T'Challa and her schemes! This was supposed to be an honest, if clandestine, attempt to build a bridge or two across the mine-littered frontier of the Federation-Romulan border. The data jewel in his trouser pocket suddenly felt leaden as a gravestone.
He put a hand on the security man's shoulder. "I'm sorry, Gomez," he murmured.
Gomez looked up confidently, then pointed at the bow as two Federation starships blinked out of warp space only a few kilometers distant.
"Don't be," Gomez replied. "The cavalry's here."
Not the cavalry, Fox thought. Custer.

Excerpts from 'Monica's Story'
Web posted on: Thursday, March 04, 1999 10:14:49 AM
(CNN) -- The following are excerpts from Monica Lewinsky's new book, "Monica's Story," written by Princess Diana biographer Andrew Morton with the former White House intern's cooperation:
Chapter Four: Monica Goes to Washington
On her first intimate encounter with the president: "'I remember looking at him and seeing such a different person than the one I had expected to see. There was such a softness and tenderness about him, his eyes were very soul-searching, very wanting, very needing, and very loving. There was too, a sadness about him that I hadn't expected to see.'"
Chapter seven: Not Right in the Eyes of God
"By the time he reached the age of 40, he [Clinton] was unhappy in his marriage and hated what he was doing to himself and others ... He had considered divorcing Hillary and leaving politics forever -- at the time he had been re-elected for his fourth term as Governor of Arkansas. 'If I had to become a gas-station attendant to live an honest life and be able to look myself in the mirror and be happy with who I am, that's what I was prepared to do,' he confessed to Monica."
Chapter eleven: Terror in Room 1012
At the start of her first meeting with (Independent Counsel Ken) Starr's investigators, Monica demanded that Tripp stick around: "'Make her stay and watch,' she hissed. 'I want that treacherous bitch to see what she has done to me.' ... 'What on earth is going on,' she thought. 'All I'm trying to do is cover up my affair with the President.'"
Lewinsky: "'I find it difficult to describe the raw openness, the fear I felt. It was as if my stomach had been cut open and someone had poured acid onto my wound. I just felt an intense stinging pain and overriding terror. It was surreal. I couldn't understand how all this was happening.'"
"'If I have to go to jail I will do so to protect the President,' Lewinsky thought. 'I can't do this to him. I can't turn him in.'" She felt overwhelmed by guilt, knowing that she might ruin the life of the man she adored."
Lewinsky says at first, the only means she could think of that would both prevent her going to jail and protect her "handsome" was suicide. "'I couldn't bear to go to jail,' she says. 'I would come out an old lady and no one would ever want to marry me. I would never have the joy of getting married and starting a family. My life would be over. So I thought there is no way out other than killing myself. If I kill myself, then there would be no information and I wouldn't have to deal with the hurt and trouble I had caused the President.'"
The room where Lewinsky was talking with prosecutors during their initial meeting had sliding windows, and she says she considered throwing herself out, to crash to her death through the glass canopy below.
"Starr's men had her cold, Monica realized. She couldn't wriggle out of this one."
"Monica was being subjected to intimidating and remorseless psychological pressure, her inquisitors telling her, for the record, that she could leave when she liked, while making it very, very clear what the consequences would be if she did. Understandably, Monica disagrees with the assertion made by Kenneth Starr -- who was never present -- that she was not held against her will by the assorted law officers crowded into room 1012."
"'I still have nightmares about it,' she says, 'the sense of being trapped and drowning.'" Deputy Independent Counsel Jackie Bennett telling Lewinsky at the interrogation: "You should know that we are going to prosecute your mother too, because of the things you have said she has done. We have it all on tape."
Lewinsky says had she then known the full extent of Linda Tripp's treachery, her response would have been very different. "'I would have tried to kill her,' she says simply -- and means it."
Lewinsky, in interview, talked of president as 'sexual soulmate'
Author: Lewinsky remains terrified of Starr

Vorsten is een Nederlandstalig tijdschrift over vorsten en vorstelijke families. Het gaat hierbij vooral om "regerende" monarchen: Europese koninklijke families, de Japanse keizerlijke familie, de groothertogelijke familie van Luxemburg. Daarnaast wordt ook wel aandacht besteed aan hen die aanspraak kunnen maken op de titel koning (of keizer, groothertog, aartshertog, Fürst etc.) die worden beschouwd als troonpretendent. Het blad dat in Nederland wordt uitgegeven geeft bijzondere aandacht aan het Koningshuis van het Koninkrijk der Nederlanden en aan de familie Oranje-Nassau, waartoe deze koninklijke familie behoort. Het blad wordt vierwekelijks gepubliceerd door de uitgeverij New Skool Media, de hoofdredacteur is Alida Dijk.

Geschiedenis
Het tijdschrift is een rechtstreekse voortzetting van eerder verschenen bladen: Koninklijk journaal resp. Vorsten vandaag resp. Vorsten Royale, dat in 2013 de naam terug veranderde in Vorsten. De grote tijdschriften-uitgever Sanoma besloot in 2014 een aantal bladen af te stoten. Een aantal daarvan, waaronder Vorsten, werd in augustus 2014 verkocht aan Rob Koghee en Cor Jan Willig, die hiertoe het bedrijf New Skool Media hadden opgericht.

Benchmark Theatre Co-Founder Rachel Rogers Takes a Final Bow
Cortney Lane Stell on First Draft and bringing local artists to the international stage
Susan Froyd
| Arts and Culture |
Susan Froyd | July 16, 2013 | 6:00am
The curatorial team behind the Biennial's Draft Urbanism exhibitions wanted to turn the city into an international showcase so people-friendly that it's accessible by simply walking down the street. In turn, Draft Urbanism's indoor element, First Draft, was conceived as a welcoming gesture from the local art community to the global one.

The challenge of selecting the artists to represent Colorado's front line in First Draft was entrusted to Cortney Lane Stell, a Denver-based continental traveler and gallery curator at the Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design. A young woman with an educated eye for art-world trends and philosophies being practiced both here and abroad, Stell was a perfect choice to mine the Biennial's forward-thinking themes through local art.
Stell notes that Draft Urbanism as a whole "looks at the city as an ever-changing entity that's a constant draft of itself," and does that through the eyes of city planners. First Draft, which opens tonight at the McNichols Building in Civic Center Park with a public reception at 7:30 p.m., isn't so different. "In a way, that's what First Draft is doing, too: Looking at the relationship between the art-making process and artists as first draftsmen who push boundaries to speak the new throughout the duration of a career," Stell notes.
Cortney Stell's Black Cube Will Take Art Out of Museums and Into the Community
Designed to both complement the beautiful Beaux Arts McNichols structure and coexist with the building's multi-use nature as an event center, First Draft is about the fragility of becoming and all the struggles therein. It's also a stunning survey of important ideas in local work, with a focus on artists who are largely young, emerging and flexible.
Stell says she chose the 22 participating artists, many of them "twenty- and thirty-somethings," with a certain practicality in mind, precipitated by time constrictions imposed by a project that only got off the ground in April. "I had to find artists who were willing to work with us," she explains. "A lot of them were selected from artists I've worked with before. I had to be able to trust them."
That trust, as well as a youthful willingness to do whatever it takes on the part of the artists, is paying off: Stell touts the overall quality of the work, from Gretchen Marie Schaefer's delicate installation of "string and the changing light that comes from a window" to Conor King's photographic portrait series of expressionless subjects in standard poses, which despite their sterility "bring out subtleties that actually show the humanity in individuals."
Laura Shill's astonishing 600-pound fiber installation, A Small Room, promises to be a highlight of First Draft: a sheltering,ceiling-hung chandelier of stuffed fabric tubes falling like giant dreadlocks to the floor, the piece impresses the sheer weight of process in motion.
And from Denver artist/collector/gallerist Devon Dikeou comes a piece that invites public participation for the duration of First Draft's run: Open Art Fax Line is exactly what the title promises. A fax machine on the floor, it's set up to receive faxed artworks from anyone and everyone, day or night. "It's new version of a fax people installed in the '90s -- part research, part invitation and part performance," says Stell, who notes that the reiterative piece represents an "electronic open-door policy with artwork." The line is open now; call 303-482-1988 to send your images. Dikeou will archive the results.
That's just a sneak peek of what you'll find in the McNichols Building tonight. But for Stell, it's a sign that her mission's been accomplished. "I do think it is important to place local community on an international stage," she concludes. "Denver has challenges with location -- it's a land island -- and anything we can do to support our artists helps support growth in the creative community."
First Draft remains on view through September 2; visit the Biennial website for more information.

Pasternack's Art Hub Survives Its Latest Calamity: A Fire


During the 2004–05 school year, an evaluation study was conducted of the Building Academic Vocabulary (BAV) program. The findings from this study, reported in the document Marzano Program for Building Academic Vocabulary: Preliminary Report of the 2004–2005 Evaluation Study (Marzano, 2005), found that students who participated in the BAV program exhibited greater ability to read and understand grade-appropriate materials in mathematics, science, and general literacy than their nonparticipating counterparts. This report addresses the findings for a subsample of students involved in the study—those classified as English language learners (ELLs) and those classified as eligible for free and reduced lunch (FRL).


Is Strength Training Good For Losing Weight?
Strength training is gaining popularity in the fitness world and for people involved in building muscle fast. Also known as resistance training, strength training is basically any exercise that requires muscular contraction with weights or without weights for instance, push-ups, pull-ups, dips, bicep curls, triceps extension, bench press and squats are some ideal examples. Strength training solicit your muscle fibers and enable you to gain muscle mass provided you couple your training with a solid nutrition rich in protein. But what about those weight loss enthusiasts? Is strength training good for losing weight? You bet it is.
One of the fallacies I often noticed in weight loss adherents is the typical endless cardio workout and only that. Some people are adamant to strength training exercises as they fear of getting a too bulky muscular physique like bodybuilders. I don't want to burst your bubble but this can't be further from the truth. Don't worry you won't get 18 inch arms simply by performing a few bicep curls or chin-ups. In fact, adding inches to your arms can take years where you should drastically increase your calorie intake and perform progressive strength training.
The key to lose weight is to burn more calories than you consume so strength training won't play any negative role in your goals but will tone your muscles instead. While cardio will play an important role for weight loss, adding strength training in your workout routine can in fact yield even more benefits.
One primary reason why strength training is recommended for losing weight is muscles stimulate your metabolic rate. It's a proven theory, muscles enhance your metabolism and release your fat-burning hormones. Your metabolic rate is the speed at which your body processes food for energy. A faster metabolism gives a better digestion and facilitates the absorption of nutrients making you less prone for fat storage as compared to a sluggish metabolism. A more active metabolism also improves your basal metabolic rate(BMR) which is the daily minimum amount of calories your body burns for energy even when inactive.
Apart from weight loss, strength training provides numerous health benefits like strengthening your heart, preventing arthritis and joint problems, improving bone density, boosting your energy levels, enhancing your mood, improving posture and balance and preventing type 2 diabetes.
If you want to accelerate your weight loss results, perform high intensity interval strength training as the latter burns more calories. This can be done by doing supersets for instance if you just performed a set of 15-20 push-ups, immediately perform a set of 5-10 pull-ups. There is no need to rest because you're performing a different exercise of opposing muscle groups. If you do rest, only allow 20 seconds then perform another set of the same exercise. Performing strength training 2-3 times per week is enough, don't forget to have a proper nutrition in place and adequate rest as well.
The great thing about strength training is you don't necessarily need a gym membership. Bodyweight exercises like push-ups, dips, squats, lunges, pull-ups, chin-ups don't really need any fancy equipment and can be performed at the comfort of your home.
Jean Lam is a strength training addict and his favorite exercises are push-ups, pull-ups, chin-ups and dips. He enjoys writing articles on how to lose weight at home, bodybuilding, health, fitness, nutrition and supplements.

Ilia Averbukh about ladies' Grand-prix Final 2017
Ilia Averbukh talks about ladies' Grand-prix Final 2017.
Ilia: Medvedeva and Zagitova can meet for the first time at Grand Prix final, but I do not know if it makes sense to do it now, because if one of them misses the final, nothing terrible will happen. Apparently, both athletes will be in the team, they showed themself better than others. However, I think that Elena Radionova can also interfere.
Zhenya is the absolute leader of the season, and her main task is to cope with excitement and skate cleanly. I am sure that with her diligence and talent she will cope with all the difficulties of the Olympic season, everyone has such. As for her decision to participate in the Grand Prix Final, I hope, Medvedeva and her coach Eteri Tutberidze will make the right choice based athlete's health. This is not a super competition where you should really show your best to win, Olympics is ahead.
This season Sotskova showed herself very well, I like her program, she did well. As for Zagitova, she brilliantly skated all the free programs and also confidently failed all the short ones. So, she need to look for a psychological balance, because her jumping content is the most difficult in the world now.
Speaking about rivals of the Russians, Ilia mentioned Kostner:
Ilia: She is a great figure-skater, who has become a legend. Bravo – she performed well, got into the Final. Even though she is not taken into account as an Olympic medal contender, she is winning back her positions guided by legendary coach Alexei Mishin. I'm sure at the upcoming European Championships she will have a good result, because she does her job and waits for competitors.
Canadian Osmond wasn't able to show a bright result, her scores were lower than Medvedeva's, despite the excellent jumps the breakthrough did not happen. Still, our athletes are much ahead.

6 Responses to "Ilia Averbukh about ladies' Grand-prix Final 2017"
Many thanks for the update, Lotte. The figure skating scene in Russia is never dull.
Lotte, you are a far kinder person than I. I would never give Averbukh the benefit of the doubt. By the way, does anyone know what his ex-wife Lorbacheva is doing these days? Coaching? Performing?
Lotte says:
According to what I read on Russian websites, she opened her own school, but as I understood, due to lack of money, it got closed. She organised some show on Red Square, but the Moscow government didn't consider it a good investment and stopped funding it. As per February, she was training in Olympic Reserve school and didn't understand their EHS rules :) and she misses USSR. She said then in USSR one could reach the climb thanks to the sport, the state cared about the sport and now you have to pay for everything. She's complaining about the very bad conditions of coach's work on Russia. She's thinking about running for Duma.
Dmitriy Maryanov, Russian actor and Irina's ex died recently. She's blaming his wife for his death (and generally sounds like she was still hurt after their break up).
Darling, you need to upload his interviews more often. Love him. Great entertainment.
This time he forgot about Japanese girls. Who cares, right? OUR athletes should win. They are the best. Always. No matter what will happen.
And, oh, I love the fact that he's able to say a few nice (but not too nice, right) words about Caro only because she's training with Mishin.
FS Gossips says:
Probably I should look what he said about other disciplines))))
Actually, I found some of his statements on tass.ru and I noticed a funny tendency. If he speaks right after the competition, it's usually divorced from reality and kinda hilarious. If the statement is made some time after the competition, it sounds much more sensible.
It gave me hope that Ilia is simply a tiny little bit too emotional :)
Loena Hendrickx: "I'm very disappointed, this is not the level I can show. I'll probably cry now in the hotel, will throw out all the emotions. Tomorrow is a new day and a new start."
Eva-Lotta Kiibus: "I am grateful to Nina Petrokina that we have such competition in the national team now. Everyone will only benefit from it."
Anastasiia Gubanova: "Do I feel like one of the favorites to win the European title? Well, I feel it, but it doesn't bother me."
Nicole Schott: "I think raising the age minimum is good. Children should remain children for a sufficient amount of time. I think there should be separate competitions for young skaters and women."
Daniel Grassl: "I made the best decision that could be made for my career: I went to the academy of Eteri Tutberidze, because she is one of the best coaches in the world."

The Eternal Memory (dt.: "Die ewige Erinnerung"; Originaltitel: La memoria infinita, dt.: "Unendliche Erinnerung") ist ein chilenischer Dokumentarfilm von Maite Alberdi aus dem Jahr 2023. Das Werk stellt den chilenischen Journalisten Augusto Góngora in den Mittelpunkt, bei dem die Alzheimer-Krankheit diagnostiziert wurde. Die fortschreitende Erkrankung und die Höhen und Tiefen im Alltag werden von seiner Ehefrau Paulina Urrutia per Video dokumentiert.

Der Film wurde im Januar 2023 im Rahmen des Sundance Film Festivals uraufgeführt und mit dem Hauptpreis ausgezeichnet. In Deutschland wurde The Eternal Memory erstmals während der Internationalen Filmfestspiele Berlin gezeigt.

Inhalt

Augusto Góngora und Paulina Urrutia sind seit 23 Jahren ein Paar. Augusto ist einer der prominentesten Kulturjournalisten und Fernsehmoderatoren Chiles gewesen. Seine Frau Paulina, die er liebevoll "Pauli" nennt, ist Schauspielerin und übernahm von 2006 bis 2010 das Amt der Ministerin für Kultur und Medien des Landes. Vor acht Jahren wurde bei Augusto die Alzheimer-Krankheit diagnostiziert. Seitdem kümmert sich Paulina um ihn. In seiner Karriere war er dafür verantwortlich, dass die Gräueltaten der Pinochet-Diktatur nicht in Vergessenheit geraten. Nun liegt es an seiner Ehefrau und ihm, seine Identität festzuhalten. Jeden Tag stellt sich das Paar dieser Herausforderung und den schwierigen Situationen, die die Krankheit verursacht. Gleichzeitig hält sie die zärtliche Zuneigung, die sie sich entgegenbringen, und ihr Sinn für Humor zusammen.

Veröffentlichung und Rezeption
Die Uraufführung des Films erfolgte am 22. Januar 2023 auf dem Sundance Film Festival. Die europäische Premiere fand am 18. Februar 2023 im Rahmen der Internationalen Filmfestspiele Berlin statt, wo Maite Alberdis Film in die Sektion Panorama eingeladen wurde. Dort soll die Europa-Premiere am 18. Februar erfolgen.

Auf der Website Rotten Tomatoes erhielt das Werk bislang unter 78 Prozent der Filmkritiker Zuspruch. In einer von der Website IndieWire durchgeführten Umfrage unter über 300 Kritikern belegte The Eternal Memory einen 6. Platz unter den Dokumentarfilm-Beiträgen beim Sundance Film Festival.

Die Sundance-Festivaljury zeigte sich bei ihrer späteren Preisvergabe beeindruckt von der im Film gezeigten Liebe zwischen dem Paar sowie der dargestellten "Bedeutung von Leben und Tod". "Durch eine einfache, aber komplexe Darstellung einer Gefangenschaft" bringe The Eternal Memory die Zuschauer "in das Leben dieser faszinierenden Charaktere, die uns weiser und liebevoller machen, je länger wir bei ihnen bleiben".

Auszeichnungen
The Eternal Memory gewann beim Sundance Film Festival 2023 den Großen Preis der Jury für den besten ausländischen Dokumentarfilm. Im Rahmen der Berlinale 2023 wurde das Werk in die Sektion Panorama aufgenommen und ist damit für den Publikumspreis nominiert.

Beauty By Shannon: My favourite Fall/Winter blushes!
I love a good berry, plummy, red blush in the fall/winter! But I get that naturally just stepping outside my front door, as we're in freezing cold Canada! So it's a balancing act trying to find blushes that mimic this look without being super over the top!!
I'm also super heavy handed with blush, so I need a blush that isn't so pigmented I shake in my boots looking at it!!
I like medium coverage, luminous and buildable!
These are my favourite fall/winter blushes, and highlights!
Clinique Cheek Pop in Cola Pop.
I think only two of these are Matte. And that's because I personally don't like matte blushes, I find them hard to spread out and blend and buff. So I tend to reach for Shimmery/highlighting blushes!!

Chinese judicial justice on the cloud: a future call or a Pandora's box? An analysis of the 'intelligent court system' of China
Alison (Lu) Xu*
*この研究の対応する著者
The incorporation of information and communication technology as part of the process of Chinese judicial reform has appeal to both legislators and policy-makers who focus on its positive features. The launch of the 'intelligent court system' represents part of this process to equip the judiciary with the most up-to-date modern technology that aims to reshape case resolution procedure by way of moving the legal process online. The central aspect of this is to establish an online case resolution process through an 'e-court' or 'online court', which will shift the judicial process towards working within the expectation of modern commercial practice and technological capacity. However, the realisation of the ideals underlining the project is not without problems. An examination of the two different models introduced for the pilot e-court system, indicates that insufficient consideration has been given with regards to its potential adverse effects and that more thought needs to be given to how these issues should be addressed in order to improve the role and function of online courts in China.

Being Careful with Reductions in Force
Julian H. Wright Jr.
Robinson Bradshaw Publication
In difficult economic times, employers frequently look to cut costs by cutting jobs. Employers doing so need to be careful not to increase costs by inviting lawsuits from terminated employees. Myriad laws apply when making decisions about "reductions in force" (RIFs), whether in a large layoff or just when eliminating a couple of marginal positions. This article provides an up-to-date overview of some of the laws and regulations employers today need to keep in mind.
Generally, preparation and planning provide the best protection against lawsuits arising from RIFs. Employers need to be able to identify why people are being let go in plain English and without jargon. The identified reasons need to be nondiscriminatory. Criteria for who will be selected for termination—and who will keep their employment—need to be thought out clearly, explained accurately, and communicated consistently. Determining those criteria and implementing them during a RIF should be done with the following legal requirements in mind.
Larger employers—typically defined as those with 100 employees—need to be warned about WARN, the Workers Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act. WARN's protections kick in if an employer makes a "mass layoff"—eliminating 50 or more full-time jobs if those total more than 33% of the jobs at a site, or eliminating at least 500 jobs within a 30-day period at a site. WARN's protections typically require 60 days' notice to affected employees, local government bodies, and others before any layoff can take effect. Failing to provide adequate notice subjects employers to claims for back pay, lost benefits, civil penalties (up to $500 a day), and attorneys' fees.
Most employers need to be very careful to make sure that a RIF does not discriminate against older workers. The Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) prohibits adverse employment actions being taken against workers on the basis of age, specifically those workers over the age of 40. Consequently, an employer cannot implement a RIF simply by laying off its oldest workers. ADEA's reach, however, extends to far more than just intentionally discriminatory acts. ADEA also protects older workers against "disparate impact." For example, even if an employer implemented a RIF by laying off its most expensive or least productive workers, that RIF still could violate the ADEA if it turns out that all—or even just a lot—of the workers affected are over the age of 40.
To provide older workers with additional protection, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act (OWBPA) limits an employer's ability to rely on releases of age discrimination claims from terminated employees. In the case of an individual release from a single employee, the employer must allow the employee 21 days to consider the written specifics of the release and notify the employee of his or her right to seek the advice of legal counsel about the release. The employee can shorten this 21-day period, but the employer cannot. Moreover, the employee has the right to rescind any executed release agreement within seven days of signing it. Failure to meet the OWBPA's requirements means that the employee—even if paid a settlement amount—has not released the employer from ADEA claims and the employer still can be sued.
Additional OWBPA protections apply when more than one employee is affected by a termination or layoff, as is typically the case in a RIF. In this situation, OWBPA's notice period increases from 21 to 45 days, although the seven-day rescission period still applies. Additionally—and often most troubling for employers—employers must provide each employee included in a RIF with a list of those workers in the "decisional unit" (such as a division, plant or department from which positions are being eliminated) who are being retained after the RIF and those who have been selected for termination. This identification has to include the job title and the ages of all individuals selected for the RIF, as well as the ages of all individuals in the same job classification or "decisional unit" who were considered—or could have been considered—for selection and inclusion in the termination program. In short, the employee gets a complete listing of the ages and job titles of the people who get to keep their jobs and those who get laid off. The information is designed to reveal to the terminated employee whether he or she (and his or her laid-off colleagues) has suffered disparate impact on the basis of age. Employers want to be able to provide information which shows that older workers have not received such disparate impact.
Although age discrimination tends to be the type of discrimination most argued about in RIFs, employers also need to protect themselves against other kinds of discrimination claims. Employees are legally protected from discrimination on the basis of race, sex, disability, national origin, and religion. Employers need to plan for and implement RIFs so that no specific group is targeted, intentionally or unintentionally, for termination.
Employers must consider how a RIF affects employees who are on leave status. For example, employers need to analyze how RIF decisions impact workers on leave under the Family Medical Leave Act, or the Pregnancy Discrimination Amendments to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, or the Uniform Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act. If the RIF disproportionately affects workers on leave because of family health problems, pregnancy, or military service, an employer may want to reconsider the RIF's criteria.
When making RIF decisions, employers should be mindful of their obligations under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. At a minimum, in setting RIF criteria, employers should try to avoid terminations that could interfere with an employee's vesting rights in an ERISA-qualified plan.
All of the statutes discussed above are federal laws. Employers also may need to consider state law issues in planning for and carrying out a RIF. State law, for example, typically governs covenants not to compete and other post-termination obligations of employees. Most covenants not to compete are triggered by the end of an employee's employment, regardless of cause. Accordingly, employers typically still will be able to enforce the terms of the employment covenants even against workers who are laid off in a RIF. In determining which employees to let go, employers may do well to consider which employees can hurt the employer the most—or be prohibited from hurting the employer at all—by going to work for a competitor.
RIF decisions are not easy, but in challenging economic times, the termination of employees can be a harsh reality. Employers may consider various approaches and actions to mitigate a RIF's effects: offering exit incentive programs; providing severance payments; or arranging outplacement services for laid-off employees. If properly planned and implemented, RIFs can be a way to both save expenses in the short-term and better position an employer for a more efficient recovery in the mid- to long-term. RIFs, however, also can cause unintended legal consequences that cost more money than they save and further erode employee morale. Advance planning and awareness of the legal opportunities and pitfalls (only some of which are discussed here) will help to maximize the potential benefits and hopefully minimize the downside of this process for employers.
