This is what the internets were invented for.
Over at Team Speed Kills, cocknfire ponders Georgia's short-term reality in the wake of the season ending injury suffered by Michael Bennett.
Still, it's an average of almost five catches for 69 yards a game. The question isn't so much whether the Georgia offense will regroup and find someone to replace those yards; they will. The question is whether they will do so soon enough to help out in one of the biggest games of the season.
As noted in his post, Bennett has certainly played the part of a clutch receiver this season.
Before he went down, Bennett had 24 catches for 345 yards and four touchdowns (cfbstats.com). Seventeen of his receptions (71 percent) went for first downs, including six of the eight catches he made in third-down situations.
If you review Bennett's catches on the SEC video box scores archive — the Tennessee game was not up as of this writing — one thing that leaps out at you is that Bennett rarely drops a good pass. I can remember two passes that he probably should have caught and didn't. I can remember at least one that he probably shouldn't have caught and did. Another couple of passes sailed wide and Bennett caught one out of bounds.
He was a reliable receiver; he might not have been the kind of guy who has breakaway speed, but he can get open and catch the ball when he is open — two things that aren't always as easy as they should be fore receivers.
My guess is that there's a guy on the roster who may fit the bill. Granted, he's not been much of a contributor so far, but that's about to change.
I'm talking about Malcolm Mitchell, of course. He's only caught six balls in 2012, which is too small a sample size to judge his ability to fill the hole in productivity that Bennett has left, but if you go back and look at what Mitchell did in 2011 – his catch rate was second best among all SEC receivers with at least 50 receptions and was also better than Bennett's – you'd have to think he's at least adequate for the task. Beyond that, if, like cocknfire, you're impressed with Bennett's clutchness on third down, check out Mitchell's 2011 performance in that department.
Is Mitchell still rusty from a lack of reps due to his stint on defense? We're about to find that out. One thing seems likely – he won't be focusing this Saturday on anything but playing wide receiver.
Name that caption: this drinking will kill me.
It's Athens, so I doubt this ended well.
Feel free to indulge yourselves in the comments.
It's no big secret that Georgia at times looked out of sync on the defensive side of the ball against Tennessee. One reason for that is that the Dawgs had four players starting at their positions for the first time this season: Rambo at safety, Commings at cornerback, Ogletree at the Sam linebacker position… and Herrera at the Mike linebacker position.
Grantham is a big believer in getting the best eleven guys on the field, and that's great, but there was also a price for that last weekend.
Herrera, a 6-4, 245-pound sophomore, leads Georgia with 36 tackles.
At "Mike," he's asked now to signal the plays to the defense and identify formations.
I'm certain things will improve as the defense adjusts to the moves. The question is whether things will improve fast enough. Like by this coming Saturday.
Brian Fremeau makes an interesting point about the win over Tennessee.
… On seven occasions [this season], a team has overcome a field position value deficit of at least 10 points, including Georgia's victory over Tennessee this past weekend.
The Bulldogs started six drives at or inside their own 20-yard line, including two drives pinned all the way back at their own one-yard line. Tennessee held Georgia to 14 total yards on three of those drives in the first half, and followed up each of those three possessions with a short-field touchdown drive of their own. Field position was a bit more even in the second half, and Georgia took advantage to pull out a 51-44 victory.
Partly because of this and partly because of what happened in last year's game, I expect Richt to go pretty conservative on special teams Saturday night. You can probably guess what McGowan's instructions are as the go-to guy on punt returns, just like you can expect Gurley to be less aggressive on kickoffs. And the over/under on punt safe formations has likely taken a jump.
I can't say that I blame Richt too much for that, but there's a risk he runs. That risk is that Georgia winds up with lousy field position anyway. If that happens and Bobo decides to play it close to the vest against a talented, aggressive Carolina defense… well, we saw that show last week. When I said this game may come down to how many times Georgia is forced to start inside its own 10-yard line, I wasn't being facetious.
Step right up and dig in.
This is a weird stat: David Greene in 2004 was the last Bulldog to throw a touchdown pass in Columbia.
What would a poll based on teams' records against the spread look like? This.
In the Big 12, bad officiating means never having to say you're sorry.
In Dan Wetzel's world, playoffs make everything in college football better.
On the other hand, the ACC elects to stay with an 8-game conference schedule.
Gee, I thought stuff like this was just a Southern problem.
Man, I love the O'Bannon lawsuit. Now it's ESPN's turn under the microscope.
Is there a more pointless exercise than blogging about NCAA '13 game simulations?

Getting social; highlights from the Social Enterprise World Forum
Last week, over 1,500 people from more than 45 countries collided in the newly rebuilt heart of Christchurch for a shared purpose: to join in the conversation about social enterprise.
Akina led the bid to host the Social Enterprise World Forum in New Zealand, and (we reckon) did a pretty rad job. Over the three day event we heard from world-leading social entrepreneurs like Jan Owen, we were star struck by MC Suzy Cato and we cheered on memorable soundbites like this one from Brianne West of Ethique:
"I look forward to the day when social enterprise is no longer the minority."
The overarching theme was "ka koroki te manu" – creating our tomorrow. This was a theme that came through many of the sessions, with speakers and delegates keeping a keen eye on how to build financially sustainable enterprises that also build a more sustainable future.
Other cool elements to the Forum: it was a "Compostable Event" (which basically means the caterers and food trucks used only completely compostable packaging and cutlery); there were 25 tours of 30 local social enterprises across Christchurch; and there was an app which featured an Facebook-esq feed plus a contact list of everyone who attended.
Catching up with PledgeMe community
We also bumped into a bunch of PledgeMe alumni. Here are some cool stories of what some of them have been up to since they crowdfunded:
Conscious Consumers ran a successful project campaign with us in 2015 to build a "Good Spend Counter", an app that shares your values with the businesses you shop with. Since then, over 20,000 consumers and 450 retailers have signed up to the app. Conscious Consumers is currently attempting to raise $3 million to go global.
Cultivate Christchurch inspires young people to "live lives they value in an urban farm environment". During the Forum, co-founder Bailey Perryman announced that Cultivate Christchurch will be launching a crowdlending campaign involving the aptly named "Broccoli Bonds" on Thursday 12 October.
The Blueskin Resilient Communities Trust crowdfunded with us in 2013 to put up a wind measurement tower in Blueskin Bay. Since then, BRCT tried to gain consent for their community owned wind project, but were rejected. Manager Scott Willis shares his reflections: "It's hard to create paradigm change, but we've begun the process. We've had a setback that has revealed the power of the status quo in New Zealand. What's next? We're marshalling forces because the democratisation of energy in NZ is critical if we are to build the climate solutions our world needs."
Ethique is a Christchurch-based social enterprise looking to rid the world of plastic bottles by producing solid hair and beauty products. It launched its second PledgeMe campaign during the Forum, and hit headlines for crowdfunding $500k within two hours of its campaign going live.
Since the Social Enterprise World Forum launched in Scotland ten years ago, it has triggered unprecedented growth in social enterprise for the countries which host it. Clearly, exciting times lie ahead for New Zealand's social enterprise movement.
Or does it? Although we left Christchurch buzzing, we recognise social enterprise doesn't happen on its own. In fact, we wrote about the importance of spreading the impact of social enterprises in Aotearoa here. One of the easiest ways to do so is by supporting socially driven alternatives. To see who you might like to support, check out our crowdsourced list of New Zealand social enterprises.

Conflict resolution workshop paper
Hausa Fulani
Received 2014
Taroh tribe
Nutrient, Elective, Conflict with client positions], Nigeria
Research from Seminar Paper:
Some of the most fruitful areas with regards to copper are the Gimbi, Jawando and Mavo in Wase LGA. This region is accredited to be the richest region in terms of all-natural minerals and holds commercially viable mineral amounts like the copper deposits, Gypsum, Hard Mountain, limestone, calcite strantonite, and Galena (Sterlington Resources, 2014). These wealthy deposits had been another central cause of issue and assault especially aimed towards the Taroh of Wase LGAwith the guise of sharing out the proceeds of the resources. Additionally, it has seen the hostilities that have been described towards the creation and stability of the Kadarko Chiefdom because the Hausa and Fulani believe that the calcium deposits need to be shared equally of most the people surrounding areas and the creation of the Chiefdom would give up them from your proceeds. Yet , more worrying is the intention and actions of the clandestine groups among the list of Hausa and Fulani pertaining to the takings of the minerals mined from your region. The actual intention is by using the money exchanged at the puits to financial extremist groups from these two tribes like the Boko Haram who in return come back to terrorize the Christian community that is certainly predominantly Taroh tribe. The Hausa/Fulani, under the banner of 'Wase Banda Yergam' have already been seen to organize to uproot the Taroh of Wase and Langtang. The additional factor is a numerical many the Taroh tribe in Wase LGA that gives all of them an upper hand in the optional positions inside the region. The Taroh tribe is seen to compose with the majority in this region making up to get 66% in the entire population in this region. It is observed that each time the election times come close and the selection time stand is produced, there are acrimonious events which have been witnessed in the region with the goal of eliminating the Taroh people coming from vying to get the optional positions by causing as many of these displaced and effect cannot participate in elections nor strive for positions, leading to a situation of taxation without rendering.
The position of the classic units
The conventional units within Wase perform a significant function in the controlling of the conflicts, and that works from the Emir or the paramount chief, all the way up down to community and keep heads. The high part of upholding peace inside the region t fundamentally the jurisdiction of these traditional units both in the Islamic and Christian residential areas that live in Wase LGA. The Emir is considered the middle of power in an Emirate and wielded excessive electrical power. He is helped by the Emir's advisory Authorities whom he appointed coming from among the top echelons of the society. He is also the only person from your traditional products that is in order to contribute in policy making at the larger levels and meets regularly with citizens apart from participating the Total annual Conference of Chiefs in Northern Nigeria. The Emirs in this respect have been completely seen being very instrumental in peacemaking and in mediations due to the centrality of his position in the community. They are proven to have mediated serious spiritual conflicts as well as ethnic disputes.
The Emirs can also work as catalysts to violence because of the respect and honor they will derived from the virtue with their positions and the rigorous selection that is deemed religious. They are really trusted by their followers and highly respected within the area and further than. Indeed, much more strife or crisis, these are the first people that the central government consults for restoration of peaceful in the given region. The government policies are noticed to be viewed through the Emirs' communication programs and even national and foreign dignitaries generally consult the Emir with the region so as to have their programs run efficiently and find the support of the people (Roger B., ainsi que. al., 2006). This significant followership and immense power that they keep is nevertheless abused sometimes and used to give directions to violence against one more tribe.
Taking into consideration the spate of violence and disorders that are viewed to be directed at the Christians of Taroh origin in the account discussed in the list presented by WordPress, (2014), the collection of specifics around the violence that has been knowledgeable by the Christian Taroh group in the year 2013, it is noticeable that there is a calculated go on to have the Taroh finished within the Wase region and leave the entire location to the Muslim population to occupy and expand all their interests inside that location. This has been a case of real estate conflict converted into religious contestation that resulted in the Hausa/Fulani wiping out neighborhoods that were focused by Christians. The Muslims go round burning up down houses and chapels so that the out of place Taroh Christian believers do not come back to the region that they insist has to be occupied by simply Muslims (Religious Freedom Coalition, 2013). They are extremists and Islamic teams who are coordinated by Emirs and the Ciroman to conduct the attacks and still enjoy protection from them in the case of intended legal actions. In addition they use these clandestine groups to protect all their community against possible retaliatory attacks.

The results of the UK's general election may have left David Cameron the biggest winner in the country — a man whose party has a mandate to govern without forming a coalition, as was predicted — but that doesn't mean the nation was devoid of other quiet successes. The election's other big winner was the Scottish National Party, which, under the leadership of Nicola Sturgeon, charged to a resounding victory in Scotland. And the most startling of SNP success stories might just be Mhairi Black, now Westminster's youngest MP for centuries.
Black, a 20-year-old undergrad, won the Paisley and Renfrewshire South seat from Labour old-timer Douglas Alexander to become the country's youngest Member of Parliament since 1667. On Thursday night it became clear that Black held 23,548 votes compared to Alexander's 17,854. The news comes as a major upset, given that the latter is a political heavyweight and former shadow foreign secretary, and that Labour had held the seat since the 1920s. So how did this turnabout happen — and who is Mhairi Black?
Nope – and I'm not saying that in an arrogant way, I'm saying that because I'm not the one who should be nervous – it's all of them down there who have to answer for what they've done, they're the ones who have to be accountable. If I become an MP, the nerves should be on their part. Not mine.
At the tender age of 20, Black is not the UK's youngest parliamentarian ever (in the 17th century, 13-year-old Christopher Monck took a seat in Westminster under Charles II), but she's also not afraid to act her age. The Daily Mail reports that she has previously admitted to having to stop herself from head-butting Labour councillors, and she has also come under fire for obscene language on her social media accounts. One Twitter post reportedly included the phrase, "Smirnoff Ice is the drink of the gods." Ah, there's the glint of the undergraduate poking through.
Yet her political approach is mature and her motivation rooted in a firm belief in social justice. She became a parliamentary candidate in the hopes of combating "the level of poverty and injustice prevalent in our society," according to the Mail. Her website makes clear how this might be achieved. "I truly believe that the only way to bring the powers we were promised, and the social justice that Scotland so desperately needs, is to have a strong group of SNP MP's at Westminster to ensure our voices are heard," it states.
Despite her political acumen and recent success, Black isn't too busy for hobbies. She's a football fan, apparently, and an avid musician. She can play both the drums and the piano, and when asked by the BBC to name a favorite song, Black selected Bob Dylan's "The Times They Are A-Changing." She added, "I think that sums it up for me at the moment." The changes she lists include an updated wardrobe ("Running for MP is the longest job interview of my life and you wouldn't wear jeans to a job interview") and a flurry of media interest ("The New York Times did a piece on me. It's so mad").

Hanoi (VNA) – As many as 230 legislators participated in the question-and-answer (Q&A) session as part of the ongoing seventh meeting of the 14th National Assembly (NA) in Hanoi from June 4-6.
After two and a half days of working, the NA completed the Q&A session which was broadcast live on the Vietnam Television (VTV), Voice of Vietnam (VOV), and National Assembly TV Channel.
Deputies raised questions about a number of socio-economic issues of public concern in an exciting, democratic, straightforward and constructive manner.

Dear Lauren Conrad, I am sorry.


There were conflicting claims about who carried out the Saturday attack. The Taliban, which controls much of the area, claimed that its fighters killed only members of the local militia. Some government officials said Islamic State fighters were also involved, and the gruesome tactics bore the hallmarks of the international Sunni extremist militia, which has fought the Taliban and also welcomed renegades from its ranks.
But there seemed to be method to the mayhem.
The Taliban, making a summer show of force as the Trump administration weighs its options in the nearly 16-year war, has been stymied in earlier efforts to take over major cities. The insurgents are now refocusing their strategy to showcase their wide geographical reach. In the past month alone, there has been a surge of scattered attacks in remote regions, especially the northwestern provinces of Ghowr, Faryab and now Sar-e Pol, as well as in the south and east.
Civilian war-related deaths have climbed steadily since 2012, rising from 2,769 that year to 3,498 last year, and there were 1,662 between Jan. 1 and June 30 of this year, according to the United Nations mission here. The number of civilians wounded has grown from 4,821 in 2012 to 7,920 in 2016. The combined casualty figures have set a record every year.
All of these developments have escalated since a May 31 truck bombing in Kabul, still unclaimed by any group, that killed 150 people and injured 400, sparking protests that led to more deaths. In rural areas, local officials have repeatedly complained that security forces are inadequate to protect them or that officials fail to send help in time when attacks take place.
A third factor in the insurgents' rural upsurge may be support from the government of Iran, which has recently been accused by Afghan officials of supplying the Taliban with weapons and money. Iran, a Shiite theocracy, was once militarily opposed to the Sunni extremist Taliban, but it is now believed to be backing the group as a lesser evil and an antidote to the Islamic State, a more brutal and expansionist militia.
A number of recent insurgent attacks have taken place in northwestern Afghanistan, far from the Taliban's southern base and much closer to the Iran border. On Aug. 1, gunmen in suicide vests attacked a Shiite mosque in Herat, the ancient gateway city to Iran, during an evening prayer service, killing at least 29 worshipers and provoking emotional protests.
In nearby Faryab province, where Taliban forces nearly overran the capital in October, insurgents captured the Kohistan district two weeks ago, while in next-door Ghowr province, they infiltrated and seized the Taywara district, burning down government buildings and a health clinic before the area was retaken after four days by government forces.
"The enemy was planning to open a corridor from Helmand to the mountains of Faryab and Sar-e Pol provinces, but you have foiled their plan," Abdullah Abdullah, the government's chief executive, told Afghan troops in a visit to Ghowr afterward. He said the group's goal was to "destabilize the north," where insurgents now control many areas and have twice seized the capital of Kunduz province but were driven back by Afghan fighters and U.S. airstrikes.
The Defense Ministry spokesman, Gen. Dawlat Waziri, said he believes the Taliban is targeting such regions, home to many Shiites from the ethnic Hazara minority, "to turn the war into a sectarian one." He said the Taliban is staging some attacks "in the name of Daesh," as the Islamic State is known here, to exploit fears of the Middle East-based militia and win support from Russia and Iran.
Mirza Oleng, the besieged village in Sar-e Pol, is also a Shiite community, and a spokesman for the Interior Ministry said both Taliban and Islamic State fighters were part of that attack. He said they detained people at a mosque and prayer site, "then took them away and killed them brutally." Officials said they were preparing to launch a major ground and air offensive in the area.
The Taliban is keeping up attacks in Sunni and ethnic Pashtun regions, too. In southeastern Paktia province last week, its fighters captured Janikhel, a strategic supply route district, for the second time in a year. The provincial police chief, Toryalai Abdiyani, said it could fall again without a stronger military presence. "The Taliban flag is visible 150 meters away," he said.

Lena Klingler (* 3. Oktober 2000 in Remshalden) ist eine deutsche Handballspielerin auf der Linksaußen-Position. In der Beachvariante ist sie deutsche Nationalspielerin.

Seit 2019 studiert Klingler Sportwissenschaften an der TU München.

Hallenhandball
Lena Klingler stammte aus einer Handballerfamilie. Ihre Mutter Claudia Klingler spielte in der Regionalligamannschaft des VfL Waiblingen, Vater Rolf Klingler ebenfalls viele Jahre für die erste Mannschaft Waiblingens. Für den Verein ist er mittlerweile Vorstandssprecher.

Sie spielte in der Jugend bei der SG BBM Bietigheim – zunächst im Rückraum – und erreichte mit der B-Jugend des Vereins das Finalturnier der besten vier Mannschaften und 2019 mit der A-Jugendmannschaft des Vereins das Viertelfinale um die Deutsche Meisterschaft. 2018/19 spielte sie parallel zur A-Jugend auch für die zweite Frauen-Mannschaft des Vereins in der dritten Liga.

2019 wechselte Klingler zum Drittligisten HCD Gröbenzell und war seitdem zugleich für den Zweitligisten VfL Waiblingen spielberechtigt. 2021 wurde ihr Vertrag in Waiblingen verlängert, nachdem sie sich nach dem Weggang von Simona Nikolovska in der Mannschaft hinter Alina Ridder als zweite Linksaußen etablieren konnte. Sie stieg in der Saison mit der Mannschaft als Zweitligameisterin auf und spielt in der Saison 2022/23 in der Bundesliga.

Von 2012 bis 2017 gehörte Klingler dem Auswahlkader des Handballverbandes Württemberg an und wurde 2015 auch für den Deutschen Handballbund gesichtet. 2017 erreichte sie mit der Auswahl den zweiten Platz im Länderpokal.

Von Mitte 2020 bis Mitte 2021 war Klingler Jugendtrainerin beim HCD Gröbenzell.

Beachhandball
Bundestrainer Alexander Novakovic entdeckte Klingler 2016 beim Beachturnier in Ismaning. Seit 2017 spielt sie Beachhandball für die Minga Turtles Ismaning. Bei den Deutschen Meisterschaften 2021 in Düsseldorf gewann sie mit den Turtles bei nur einem verlorenen Satz die Meisterschaft. Klingler wurde danach als beste Spielerin des Turniers (MVP) ausgezeichnet.

Klingler nahm erstmals 2017 bei den Junioren-Europameisterschaften am Jarun-See bei Zagreb mit einer deutschen Nachwuchs-Auswahlmannschaft an einer internationalen Meisterschaft teil. Hier gelang ein nicht so guter Start in das Turnier, mit zwei Siegen und drei Niederlagen in der Vorrunde. Hinter den beiden Spitzenmannschaften aus den Niederlanden und Ungarn konnte Deutschland dennoch dritte der Gruppe werden und sich für das Viertelfinale qualifizieren, in dem Russland geschlagen wurde. Im Halbfinale unterlag das Team erneut den Niederländerinnen, im Spiel um den dritten Rang wurde die bisherige Übermannschaft aus Ungarn, die bis dahin alle Titel beim weiblichen Nachwuchs in Europa gewonnen hatte, geschlagen. Alle Spiele in den KO-Runden wurden erst im Shootout entschieden. Klingler spielte alle acht Spiele und erzielte 36 Punkte.

Diesen Erfolg konnte Klingler mit der deutschen Mannschaft 2018 in Ulcinj wiederholen. Nach zwei Siegen und einer Niederlage zog die Mannschaft hinter Russland ins Viertelfinale ein, wo Spanien geschlagen wurde. Im Halbfinale scheiterte die Mannschaft wie im Jahr zuvor an den Niederlanden, doch konnte wiederum das "kleine Finale" gegen Portugal klar gewonnen werden. Klingler kam erneut in allen sechs möglichen Spielen zum Einsatz und erzielte 51 Punkte. Im Vorrundenspiel gegen Griechenland war sie mit 14 erzielten Punkten zweitbeste Werferin nach Amelie Möllmann, gegen Russland mit sechs Punkten beste Werferin, allerdings gemeinsam mit Isabel Kattner, Jana Epple, Toni-Luisa Reinemann und Cara Reuthal. Im Viertelfinale war sie mit zehn Punkten wie auch mit 12 Punkten im Spiel um die Bronzemedaille jeweils gemeinsam mit Kattner beste Werferin der deutschen Mannschaft.

Für die Europameisterschaften 2019 im polnischen Stare Jabłonki wurde Klingler erstmals für ein Turnier in die A-Nationalmannschaft berufen. Der perspektivisch zusammen gestellte Mannschaft bestand aus einigen erfahrenen Spielerinnen wie Kirsten Walter, Leonie Wöbking oder Christine Königsmann, darüber hinaus aber vor allem aus jüngeren Nachwuchsspielerinnen wie Klingler, Kattner, Epple oder Reinemann. Nach einer Vorrunde mit zwei Siegen und zwei Niederlagen sowie fünf gewonnenen und fünf verlorenen Sätzen qualifizierte sich das deutsche Team als Gruppendritte für die Hauptrunde. Bei der Niederlage gegen Dänemark war Klingler mit 12 erzielten Punkten beste deutsche Scorerin. Dort schlug man zunächst die amtierenden Weltmeisterinnen aus Griechenland, verlor dann aber gegen Spanien und schlug im dritten und letzten Spiel die Italienerinnen. Das deutsche Team ging als Vorletztes Team ihrer Hauptrunden-Gruppe in die KO-Phase, wo es zunächst die Mannschaft der Schweiz deutlich mit 2:0 besiegte. Es folgte ein hart umkämpfter und erst im Shootout besiegelter Sieg gegen die Gastgeberinnen aus Polen. Im letzten Spiel nach einer kräftezehrenden Meisterschaft unterlag das junge Team der Vertretung aus Russland und belegte Platz zehn. Klingler bestritt alle zehn möglichen Turnierspiele und erzielte dabei 57 Punkte, womit sie die vierterfolgreichste Torschützin Deutschlands im Turnier war.

Weitaus erfolgreicher sollte die Beachhandball Euro 2021 in Warna werden. Klingler begann das Turnier mit drei Siegen mit der deutschen Mannschaft, über Rumänien, Portugal und die Niederlande. Damit kam Deutschland verlustpunktfrei in die Hauptrunde, wo auch die weiteren drei Spiele gegen Frankreich, Griechenland und Polen gewonnen werden konnten. Gegen Frankreich war Klingler gemeinsam mit Kattner mit je zehn erzielten Punkten deutsche Top-Scorerin, gegen Polen mit fünf Punkten gar beste Werferin. Auch das Viertelfinale wurde somit ohne Punktverlust und ohne Satzverlust erreicht. Gegen die Weltklassemannschaft aus Ungarn gewannen die deutschen Frauen im Shootout und mussten damit ihren ersten Satzverlust im Turnier hin nehmen. Mit zehn Punkten war Klingler punktgleich mit Möllmann nach Kattner beste Werferin. Auch im Halbfinale gegen Spanien wurde ein Satz verloren, doch auch die Ibererinnen konnten im Shootout bezwungen werden. Klingler war mit 15 erzielten Punkten die überragende deutsche Offensivakteurin des Spiels. Im Finale traf die deutsche Mannschaft auf die Titelverteidiger aus Dänemark, die dieses Mal in zwei Durchgängen besiegt wurden. Es war der erste Titelgewinn der deutschen Mannschaft seit 2006 und überhaupt erst der zweite Titel und wurde auch von den Spielerinnen selbst als "Sensation" wahrgenommen, nahm die deutsche Mannschaft nach mehreren Jahren Unterbrechung erst seit 2015 wieder an internationalen Wettbewerben teil. Klingler spiele alle möglichen neun Partien und traf dabei zu 63 Punkten.

2022 erhielt sie das Silberne Lorbeerblatt.

Q: Android - Gradle dependencies of Library Modules In Android Studio, I've created an Android Library Module. Said module has its own Gradle file, and I intend to make it as independent from the app that will be using it as possible - that means that the user doesn't have to copy the Library Module's Gradle dependencies into the app module's Gradle dependencies block.
How do I go about doing it? Do I have to search for the .jar files of said dependencies and add them to the Library Module instead of the ordinary compile '<libpackage>:<libname>:<libversion>' lines in Gradle?

A: You can export this library into aar file and compile this file as library, it will download all inside library dependencies

Lublin and Region
Why Lublin?
The Lubelskie Region
The Language, Culture and Mind conference series…
…aims at establishing an interdisciplinary forum for an integration of cognitive, social and cultural perspectives in theoretical and empirical studies of language and communication.
Human natural languages are biologically based, cognitively motivated, affectively rich, socially shared, grammatically organized symbolic systems. They provide the principal semiotic means for the complexity and diversity of human cultural life. As has long been recognized, no single discipline or methodology is sufficient to capture all the dimensions of this complex and multifaceted phenomenon, which lies at the heart of what it is to be human. In the recent past, perception and cognition have been the basis of general unifying models of language and language activity. However, a genuine integrative perspective should also involve such essential modalities of human action as: empathy, mimesis, intersubjectivity, normativity, agentivity and narrativity. Significant theoretical, methodological and empirical advancements in the relevant disciplines now provide a realistic basis for such a broadened perspective. This conference will articulate and discuss approaches to human natural language and to diverse genres of language activity which aim to integrate its cultural, social, cognitive and bodily foundations. We call for contributions from scholars and scientists in anthropology, biology, linguistics, philosophy, psychology, semiotics, semantics, discourse analysis, cognitive and neuroscience, who wish both to impart their insights and findings, and learn from other disciplines.

UCL Weds: Barca hosts Chelsea; Bayern carries huge lead
By Nicholas MendolaMar 13, 2018, 7:33 PM EDT
Call it a UEFA Champions League doubleheader, with a Turkish kickoff at 1 p.m. ET and a battle in Spain at 3:45 p.m.
[ MORE: Mourinho reacts to UCL exit ]
Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is demanding his side "stay in every moment of the game" as it attempts to score at the Camp Nou against Barcelona. Chelsea opens the leg with a 1-1 score line, and knows it needs a 1-0, 2-1, 2-2, or better.
And you're not going to have a ton of the ball. Here's Conte and one of his buzz words, suffer:
"Barcelona try to dominate the game, have a lot of possession and try to get players between the lines and go straight towards the goal. We must pay great attention, be compact and suffer. Without the ball, you suffer. You have to defend well. When you have the ball, I repeat, we must know very well which is the way to go, to try to score and create chances, in the same way we did at Stamford Bridge."
As for Barcelona, the Blaugranas have not forgotten how Chelsea knocked them out of the UCL in 2011-12.
"You can draw conclusions from every game. In 2012, we started out really well, we went ahead on the scoreboard, we went for it in the second leg, we missed a penalty kick — that's all part of football. It was a sad game, because we could have gone through to the final. We played great in those games, and it seems inconceivable that we didn't go through, but that's the way football is."
As for the other tie, Bayern Munich visits Besiktas for a 1 p.m. ET kickoff.
Besiktas is a fine team, but posting 5-0 or better over Bayern Munich in Turkey is a bit too far-fetched to consider more than a paragraph on this second leg. Expect Besiktas to show well, but keeping Bayern off the board is quite a challenge. Bayern boss Jupp Heycknes may rest a fella or two:
"We have 20 absolutely top players, and I trust all of them. There's no preferred line-up. It varies. But of course I won't act against my conviction that we need a good balance between defence and attack in the team. That'll be the case tomorrow too."

°» Natural is the latest collaboration between musical travellers and kindred spirits Nicola Conte and Stefania Dipierro, the culmination of a relationship rooted in a shared belief in the spiritually healing powers of music. The Italian duo is set to take 2016 by storm with a sensual, sumptuous and highly accomplished record, firmly anchored in the traditions of Brazilian bossa nova, samba and jazz.
°» Stefania and Nicola first came together as members of the seminal 90s musical collective Fez, with Nicola leading the group. This period, one full of inspiration and discovery, laid the seeds for Natural. Though Stefania lent her enviable vocal talents to many bands over the years and Nicola went on to an illustrious production career, outside of a handful of tracks from Nicola's album Jet Sounds, it was not until now that the stars aligned again, allowing these two mercurial talents to merge their musical sensibilities once again to access the deep spirituality that is at the core of their approach to sound. Stefania's ongoing musical journey has ensured that her connection to, and understanding of jazz runs deep, as she resoundingly demonstrates throughout Natural. With Nicola once again in the production seat, the album serves as the defining showcase for her inimitable vocal talents.
°» Nicola first achieved international acclaim for his signature style of samba–influenced acid–jazz, which also drew inspiration from 60s and 70s Italian film soundtracks. Alongside his production work Nicola has laid out his musical vision through his guitar playing and songwriting, with numerous studio albums including 2004's Other Directions, released on Schema, a French Subsidiary of Blue Note Records. His compilation series Viagem, all 5 volumes of which have been released on Far Out, provide an insight into the sounds of the past that have inspired his music of today, a peerless collection of lost bossa and samba jazz from the swinging Brazilian 60s.
°» On this new collaborative release for Far Out, Conte's forward thinking production cleverly compliments and contrasts with the warmth of Dipierro's laid back inflection and gloriously rich timbres. Natural is aptly named, considering the ease with which Stefania and Nicola have re–assumed the roles of muse to one another, a musical relationship providing the deepest access to the poetry within their sound. The album's title track and first single is a perfect introduction to their world, a masterful blend of global influences in which a propulsive Afro–rhythm bolstered by a searing funk guitar, whilst soothing Rhodes chords provide a distinctly Brazilian warmth and Stefania's vocals offer up an enriching melody to soothe the heart and engage the mind. Alongside original compositions from Nicola and others, Natural also tantalisingly promises some inspired re–interpretations of classic Brazilian and jazz pieces: Trio Tenura's exemplary bossa groove A Gira and Steve Kuhn's beautiful The Meaning of Love are among the tracks respectfully imbued with an updated resonance. The scintillating blend of jazz and bossa alongside a contemporary sensibility makes for a debut collaboration. A timeless example of the special places Brazilian music can go with a beautiful voice and a smooth groove, marking out Dipierro as a natural talent of the highest order.
By CHRIS M. SLAWECKI, Published: May 7, 2016 / Score: ****½
°» Based in their homeland of Italy, composer, multi–instrumentalist and producer Nicola Conte first worked with singer–songwriter Stefania Dipierro in Conte's 1990s collective called Fez. When Fez disbanded, Dipierro moved on to share her rich and succulent voice through a series of other collaborations, while Conte released a series of works in samba–influenced acid–jazz that was acclaimed throughout Europe, including his five–volume series Viagem, a look back at bossa and samba jazz lost in the past which inspired his music in the present.
°» Their first collaboration in fifteen years, Natural reunites Conte as guitarist, songwriter and producer, with Dipierro as songwriter and vocalist, for a program of originals, jazz classics, and bossa/samba classics in the company of some of Italy's finest jazz musicians, including and especially trumpeter Fabrizio Bosso and Gaetano Partipilo on alto sax and flute. It radiates the gloriously warm, glowing groove of Brazilian samba filtered through European jazz and hip–hop, while Dipierro's stylish voice pours into your ear like smooth, smoky whiskey perfectly shaken and served over the rocks of Conte's shimmering production.
°» Dipierro's voice also suggests several seminal points of reference. It gently echoes Astrud Gilberto's classic bossa nova throughout "Softly As in a Morning Sunrise" and Antonio Carlos Jobim's "Caminhos Cruzados," while "Ainda Mais Amor" suggests Bebel Gilberto (daughter of Joao Gilberto, not Astrud) working out a cool keyboard groove with Brazilian fusion pioneers Azymuth.
°» But the sadly beautiful, melancholic sound of Helen Folasade Adu (Sade) comes through strongest of all: In the way Dipierro caresses and reshapes the line "It's hard to be true, so please come open the door" in Betty Carter's "Open the Door"; the way she phrases and self–harmonizes in Conte's streamlined "I Feel the Sun On Me"; and especially the title track, which sounds built up from the rhythmic blueprint of Sade's "Keep Looking."
°» Bosso's trumpet sings prettily, nuanced and spirited, alongside Dipierro's doe–eyed vocal in Conte's loose arrangement of Steve Kuhn's "The Meaning of Love," and the peaceful, soft as a sunrise "Que Maravilha." The curtain finally comes down with "Joia," a crackling percussion/vocal duet from the Airto Moreira/Flora Purim Brazilian tradition.
°» But these descriptions and explanations don't really do justice to Conte's graceful, flowing musical poetry. Some music grabs and holds you more than other music. Natural simply will not let me go. °» http://www.allaboutjazz.com/

Masonic_Instructions: Illusion of the form
Topic:Freemasonry
Everything that surrounds us and that is knowable through our senses, we can say that it exists; usually we say it's real, although its guise (what we see) is substantially illusory. This is because every representation veils in its form the underlying life that is its cause. Therefore any reduction of metaphysical reality into physical forms (language, symbol, ritual, etc.) as much as it can be close to the metaphysical reality, it's physical and therefore it's not real.
Illusion of the form
by Adriano Nardi
© copyright by Esonet.it – Esonet.com
Dedicated to Athos A. Altomonte's work of instruction
Everything that surrounds us and that is knowable through our senses, we can say that it exists; usually we say it's real, although its guise (what we see) is substantially illusory. This is because every representation veils in its form the underlying life that is its cause.
Therefore any reduction of metaphysical reality into physical forms (language, symbol, ritual, etc.) as much as it can be close to the metaphysical reality, it's physical therefore it's not real. This is true even if we talk about the highest levels conceivable by the mind, like it happens when we refer to geometrical, numerical, symbolic, psychological or philosophical languages.
It is true that we can't do without these 'guises', if we want to give a complete sense to what we want to transmit.
In the Masonic Temple , for example, the Monad (Spiritual Man) is represented by a triangle and sometimes by an eye inscribed into a triangle (the 'Father' that is behind the 'Son'). This is a way of communicating an initiatory reality through a symbol, which in its form is substantially false, although the concept hidden by the symbol is true. The Monad is a real, energetic and luminous essence in emanation, which presumes the study of the aspects of Fire (*) to approach its understanding. Having to express such complex ideas, it has been necessary to build a language, an initiatory language, which has given a physical guise to metaphysical concepts.
(*) There is in the sun, in the planet, in man and in the atom a central point of heat or (if I can use such a limiting and improper term) a central cavity of fire, a nucleus of heat; this central nucleus reaches the limit of its sphere of influence, its insuperable circle through a three-fold channel. ('A Treatise on Cosmic Fire' , A. A. Bailey)
The Temple is a symbolic representation of metaphysical concepts – from the most complex to the simplest – disguised in substantially untrue forms, and we must highlight this, not because of the concept contained in them but because there isn't a 'compass' in metaphysical reality.
Therefore we must keep in mind that the initiatory language is the instrument, the container through which we express real concepts of light.
The concept can be perceived by the cardiac center, but then it must be transmitted to the physical brain that elaborates it, originating an appropriate form for the physical manifestation.
In ordinary imagery it is accepted the statement that we are 'Children of God'. If we look at ourselves from a physical point of view, it is difficult to imagine and accept (for people who have developed the slightest ability of discernment) the anthropomorphization of the divinity; whilst if we look at the 'inner side' as a complex of forces and energies, the approach to this statement is less illusory.
The illusion must not be denied, but we must learn to use it by recognizing it, in order not to become its slaves and learn to dissolve it.

Women's 63 kg competition in judo at the 2004 Summer Olympics was held on August 17 at the Ano Liossia Olympic Hall.

This event was the median of the women's judo weight classes, limiting competitors to a maximum of 63 kilograms of body mass. Like all other judo events, bouts lasted five minutes. If the bout was still tied at the end, it was extended for another five-minute, sudden-death period; if neither judoka scored during that period, the match is decided by the judges. The tournament bracket consisted of a single-elimination contest culminating in a gold medal match. There was also a repechage to determine the winners of the two bronze medals. Each judoka who had lost to a semifinalist competed in the repechage. The two judokas who lost in the semifinals faced the winner of the opposite half of the bracket's repechage in bronze medal bouts.

This method tells us how to measure elasticity of demand at any point on a demand curve. The demand curve in Fig. 11.12. 00 is 'the straight line demand curve. Elasticity is represented by the fraction: distance from 0 to a point on the curve divided by the distance from the other end to that point. Thus, elasticity of demand on the points PI' 1-'2 and P3 respectively.
The words of Baumel. Arc elasticity is a measure of the average responsiveness to price changes exhibited by a demand curve over some finite stretch of the curve." Any two points on a demand curve make an arc. The area between P and M on the DO curve an arc which measures elasticity over a certain range of prices and quantities.
There is another drawback if we measure elasticity by the slope of the curve. Take two commodities, say wheat and radio sets. A five-rupee fall in the price of wheat may increase the demand by 5 lakh acquittals but a 5 -rupee fall in tic price of a radio set may increase the demand by 25 sets only. This does not mean that the demand for wheat is more responsive to tic change in price than radio acts. The reason is that a 5 -Rupert fall in the price of wheat is a big change whet fall in the price of a radio set is insignificant. Also, there is no basis for comparison between a unit of wheat and a unit of radio sets.
Slope Indicating Elasticity. We can. however, conceive of one case where the relative elasticity of two curves can be known from their respective slopes. Suppose there are two curves, AB and CD, representing the demand for the same good ill separate markets as shown in the following diagram.
Then elasticity of demand at the point R is.

The earlier days of KFR
Way back in 2012, I recall these 2 original cabin containers. sitting under these white canopies. The one on the left is where Rinpoche's cabin is and the one on the right is Rinpoche's assistant's cabin. Rinpoche's sacred cabin is not a focal point in KFR as a holy spot and from where everything began. The two canopies was a bigger space to allow for a kitchen of sorts and access to two containers. The satellite dish bestowed some sort of Internet connection to the cabins but it was slow and choppy. It was such a Kechara thing to remain connected to the Internet!
That's me doing my work on the computer along with Nicholas and the glamorous Dato Ruby in the picture. I recall when Rinpoche first got me to come assist him in KFR, he actually thought I wasn't interested. So, he told me to stay back and I did but the next day, he asked me again whether I wanted to go to KFR, I enthusiastically said yes. Only then, was I allowed to go up.
On the first day, I was instructed by Rinpoche to climb up the little hill which at the summit is where the picture above is taken. Then, I was to plant a few grains of rice consecrated by the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden in trance. I was told to make the aspiration that whatever Rinpoche had in mind for this place to manifest. At that time, the plan was for the hill to be the site of Rinpoche's ladrang or household. However, things changed and today, it is the site of Manjushri Hill offices. Needless to say, this is now known as Manjushri Hill.
During the earlier days, Rinpoche needed more assistants to be staying up with him in Kechara Forest Retreat, especially to oversee the clearing of the land and so forth. Hence, Rinpoche acquired these really neat tents that were erected under the canopies to accommodate the influx of people (mostly boys). If you look closely at this picture, that's me lying in there. That's where I sleep! This was dubbed 'Tent city' and even this eventually expanded.
Later, a bigger makeshift wooden structure was built to accommodate the tents instead. We had huge industrial fans to cool us off and at night, KFR was actually quite chilly and comfortable. Those were great early memories of our pioneering days.
Rinpoche had this incredible fasting Buddha the focal point of offerings under the canopy. He explained that this depiction of the Buddha during the years he spent in extreme ascetic practices. It represents spiritual perseverance and the inspiration for those pioneering days where there were plenty of issues everything from muddy tracks that traps cars to water and electricity issues.
I am not much of assistance to Rinpoche during those days as I just brought his meals, talked to him, tell him new news and burn firewood in the fireplace outside the tent area to ward of insects. Therefore, Rinpoche assigned me to learn up on the Kalarupa pujas (called Druchuma) and to perform it together with Dorje Shugden each day to clear obstacles for KFR to arise. I would do it daily in front of the fasting Buddha and once, Rinpoche recorded a video of me doing it as well:-
Looking back at these pictures, a flood of memories comes to me of people and circumstances. It was not easy but it was fun and certainly KFR has completely transformed since that time. Below are some recent pictorial comparisons of the earlier days and recently.

Water is being taken out so fast from South Carolina's rivers, lakes and aquifers that the supply soon won't be able to replenish.
Yet, state regulators still haven't set limits for how much can be safely withdrawn.
It might be up to a group of about-to-be-convened resident councils to determine.
A 2017 update to the State Water Plan called for the S.C. Department of Natural Resources to form eight advisory councils, one for each of the state's major river basins.
The update was written amid two controversies involving industrial-scale withdrawals from the Edisto River for an sprawling potato farm and the withdrawal of millions of gallons from an aquifer below Charleston for the internet giant Google.
The councils' job is to advise the Legislature on new approaches for managing the water in and below those basins. These approaches could include calls for changing the rules governing both groundwater and surface withdrawals.
A DNR committee currently is thrashing out details regarding who will sit on those councils from among various conservation, agricultural, industrial and recreational interests.
The job won't be easy.
"When it comes to water management, there's nothing more critical to our public health and economic future," said Gerrit Jobsis, the regional director for the conservation group American Rivers. But water management currently is little more than a "race to the bottom," he said.
Each day, businesses and individuals in the state tap 1 billion gallons of surface water and 333 million gallons of groundwater. Demand is rising. Supplies are shrinking.
The state's current groundwater plan says permits will be decided based on "reasonable use," including effect on groundwater levels. But it doesn't set specific limits. First time permits approved by the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control usually allow the amount of withdrawal asked.
Even getting groundwater limits to fit in with surface water limits will be difficult. River basins cross more than one aquifer, and the aquifer layers stretch under more than one basin.
But the need is clear.
As demand increases from a thirsty, growing population, the abundant fresh water supply in the rainy Carolinas is shrinking. Researchers have found the mountain streams that are a key source of water for the region are losing flow and have been since the 1970s.
Meanwhile, groundwater levels are dropping in many of the monitoring wells and never really recovered from the drought 20 years ago, the state says.
Groundwater aquifers are massive, interconnected layers underground saturated like sponges with water that seeps from the surface over the long term. They are essentially the reserve tanks for huge spans of land across the Southeast. As they get drawn down, surface water sinks to fill the void.
The new councils can make recommendations, but it will be up to the Legislature to change current regulations, said Ken Rentiers, DNR's deputy director for land, water and conservation.
"Our approach is to provide a foundation of sound science including the surface water assessment and basin models, groundwater assessment and models, as well as a 50-year demand forecast," Rentiers said.
For more information, call DNR's Land, Water and Conservation Division at 1-803-734-3893.
How much water does SC consume? Clemson Extension aims to find out.
