Siggy Flicker Makes It Official, She's OUT of RHONJ!
December 22, 2017 by tamaratattles 102 Comments
Siggy Flicker made an official statement on Bravo today that SHE has decided to quit RHONJ. It's so nice that Bravo always allows the dearly departed to make it seem like it is their decision.
"After much reflection and Bravo's support, I have decided that this will be my last season on The Real Housewives of New Jersey. I am grateful to the network for allowing me to be part of this successful franchise and wish only the best for Teresa, Melissa, Dolores, Danielle and Margaret. At this time, I want to focus on my beautiful family, my growing business and some exciting new projects."
However, she is still ranting about some other atrocity Margaret committed against her in Milan that was not shown. Apparently, people only like her because she got the good edit.
She also told Page Six today that she's thinking about giving Margaret a free therapy session for the holidays.
Paige Six also reminds us that last month, when Siggy came to WWHL to sit in the audience when Dolores was on, Andy told her off camera during a commercial break that she really needed to get off Twitter because fighting with trolls all day is "toxic." I think it is more likely that Trump will get off Twitter before Siggy does.
She certainly doesn't seem like she is focusing on her family or her business when she is on Twitter 24/7. She is on there more than me, and Tweeting is literally my job.
I'd like to see Caroline Manzo back. She hasn't been willing for a while, but she has hinted that Bravo just needs to make her an offer she can't refuse. Teresa needs a little pushback next season.
I bet someone is really Soggy today.

Siggy is nutz, but she is basically the whole show. Nobody cares about Teresa or Melissa anymore. Danielle was boring. Margaret has no story line with out Siggy. Maybe it's time for a whole new cast.
TheArtistFormerlyKnownAsYoya says
Siggy is the whole show? Are you nuts? She's not even a love-to-hate, she's a hate-to-hate. Just get her off my TV.
Dc chica says
Siggy was the show??? Haaaaaaa!
KTwallis says
I like Siggy and I feel bad for her. She completely lost it this season -whether hormones or something else. For someone who prides and markets themselves as a mental health guru (let me take a second to point out that she has zero educational training for any of that, especially to offer "therapy") she really hurt her brand and if she wasn't so full of herself she would have seen it coming.
EnglishRose says
I think she realized how hurtful all her poor behavior was to her "career", and that's probably the biggest reason for quitting the show. I also think she fell apart this season, big-time, and she doesn't appear to have been able to rein herself in. I think a lot of these ladies read comments that are left, or have someone do it for them, and she would have been horrified to see how unpopular she is. Overall, good decision on her part to leave the show. She didn't really add anything this year other than arguments and tears. She could have done so much better.
I totally agree she really embarrassed herself this year. I was going to stop watching she was so nasty. Dolores needs to get it together I'm getting sick of her too. She was a puppet this season. I love margaret
Jessica White says
yes! i tried to research what certification or degrees Siggy has to be a relationship expert/therapist. It appears she has a bachelors in communications, thats all. She is a mess and ruining whatever career she had prior to joining RH. She needs to get off the show.
Wow.. couldn't have said it better!
Janett says
If I hear siggy say Michael Campbell's one more time..I will puke coat hangers! Siggy acts like she's so proud to be Jewish but then makes a point to reference her husband as Michael campanella saying that growing up as a Jewish girl you were like a Bernstein..saying it's because of the "vowel" in his name! I call bullshit! Sounds to me that siggy would rather identify herself as a "campanella" than a "Bernstein. Hippacrit much siggy? Oh, and that comment"everyone has a credit card" wow! . Margaret said nothing offensive with the "Hitler" comment, but it seems siggy needed ammunition against Margaret because siggy can't stand the fact that.the other housewives took to Margaret so quickly! Hey, I wasn't offended and my relative was warder cresson who was a Jewish convert was taken to court on an Insanity hearing for converting to Judaism won the court case, by the way you can look that up. When he died he was buried on mount olive in Jerusalem! He started a Sephardic community in the holy Land and taught them irrigation etc. It's ironic that siggy blurts out on the reunion don't mess with me I'm an Israeli! The same siggy who has said that when her parents moved to the middle East she purposely shoplifted so she could stay in the united States! Unbelievable siggy! Then after siggy behavior with Margaret,. Siggy during the retreat blames her behavior on the fact that Margaret previously called her "soggy flicker" and that her over the top behavior was because she was bullied because she was called such names as "siggy" siggerettet and so forth when she was in school…really. correct if I'm wrong, but don't you call herself "siggy"? My last name is wood..I got called woody the wood pecker! What kid didn't get teased for their name , their clothes or their appearance , that's is no excuse for siggy s abhorrent behavior! I like Delores, but yes she is loyal to a fault and she is certainly not doing her friend siggy any favors by backing siggs bizarre and erratic behavior. If Delores was a true friend , which I don't doubt, she would tell siggy how her behavior is detrimental to her relationship s, and her brand. Siggy behavior is crazy , rude, abrasive, irrational, condescending and just plain unacceptable in any part of this planet, be it Israel or the united States! Delores please stop feeding the "Sig monster" and sit her down and talk to her before siggy does more irreparable damage to what is left of her career as a "relationship expert". In closing I would just like to say that siggy really sums up her relationship expert expertise and I quote…..after Margaret says" you aligned me with a hate group" siggy says "listen I said it in the heat of the moment" but I don't think you're anti-Semitic" but then keeps pulling out the anti-Semitic accusation later on as her own personal weapon of mass destruction to use against Margaret which siggy usually does to deflect from her own behavior! Siggy own father told siggy that he didn't believe Margaret is anti-Semitic..siggy tries to justify her behavior by saying" but I'm angry daddy" "she brings out the worst in me" … childish much siggy? When Margaret says during the reunion that she raised her children "Jewish" siggy in all her infinite wisdom responds "I don't give a fuck*. Siggy..what relationshipclass was that gleaned from? Andy Cohen tried to get through to siggy regarding the Hitler comment, which by the way was at siggy request,when siggy didn't like that Andy or his parents didn't find Margarets Hitler analogy offensive or anti-Semitic …siggy responded in true form "what you feel".."what you feel" and "what you feel" I don't give a shit!!! "Way to go Sig" I'll have to remember that one the next time I need some "conflict relationship" advice!!
I hope the "exciting new project" is a meaningful diagnosis from a real doctor that isn't just trying to sell some kind of experimental medication. I'm not trying to stigmatize mental health issues or dismiss Siggy, but what we've witnessed on RHONJ this season – regardless of editing – really has been pretty freakin' sick. She's a bully, and I don't use that word lightly, whose illness has caused her to target a castmate and smear her reputation in the most unjustified and egregious attack since Phaedra got fired.
I hope Margaret is the reigning queen of Jersey next season – Lord knows she's the only one on this cast whose brain seems to be firing on all cylinders!
Exactly right Johnny. Those hormone pellets didn't seem to help a bit – she has got real, serious problems.
Agreed! Siggy is the one who needs the therapy. Did she crash and burn or what?!
I team Margarat.
I also agree those pellets didn't help at all
thill says
Agree with Johnny — I was saying the other day that Siggy is no better than Phaedra. And I think it's an insult to all women of a certain age for Siggy to blame menopause for her sickening behavior. She needs mental health help, desperately.
And I don't for a minute think it was her idea to leave the show. She was (and still is) actively trying to have Margaret tossed off. I am glad she will not return.
Another disturbing this is her claim that she loves herself and is over-the-moon happy with herself, usually accompanied by repeated postings of photos of herself smiling. Maybe now that she is not returning, her obsession with posting the same thing over and over will lessen.
Take_A_Xanax says
Now I am reading where some commenters are trashing on Marge because she doesn't "fix" her look with plastic surgery. They are commenting that she needs her neck fixed, her face, her boobs, liposuction, and needs hair extensions. I for one am LOVING her natural look. These are the same people who are trash commenting on others who have had plastic surgery. What exactly is their point??? BTW – the commenter who went on and on about how Marge needs her looks fixed also said how great Siggy looks. Hmmmmm…..
Not Andy Cohen says
I liked Siggy last season; she was a great addition but something was up with her this season and totally self-sabotaged herself and was a ticking time bomb. She was this seasons Jacqueline accept worse.
I do believe this was her decision to quit. I'm sure her husband knocked some sense into her and convinced her to quit. I don't fee bravo fired her; Siggy brought the drama this season. I like Dolores too but she went to bat for Siggy this season and if she's back next season, she's going to need an ally because Danielle, Melissa and Margaret aren't it for her, maybe Teresa but that's it. BTW Dolores, is a bad ass bitch. She's my spirit animal. A mix of Caroline and Dina; call you out and not afraid to get in your face but very authentic.
I like watching Dolores too. She's loyal (perhaps to a fault, but it's hard to dislike her for being a good friend), she managed to put aside her ex-husband's cheating and drug dealing to make sure her kids had their dad around, and she's gorgeous. I think she looks a lot like Vanessa Williams (who is a goddess, obviously!).
If she comes back next season, I hope they focus more on her family life and her gym business. Siggy's big mouth, Margaret's big personality, and the producers' Teresa/Melissa bias didn't leave much room for her to shine this year.
tami says
I agree with you about Deloris, I have really liked watching her this season, She could really kick some
but if she had to. I think if you have her for a friend she has your back and will be there for you which is
really nice to see.
Mich80 says
All of the ladies in this cast have a vastly over-inflated view of their own importance. Siggy, however, WOW! The things she has said this season so far are just plain crazy. She is not qualified whatsoever to counsel people reguarding relationships and life. I really hope that if the things I've seen this season are a symptom from some medical things she's been dealing with and that she is getting help for it.
I'm not sure how long this franchise can last with this current cast. They all seem to be trying to outdo each other on the crazy scale. Almost as if they know none of them are particularly interesting enough anymore to maintain the show.
Bringing Danielle back was a good effort to revive things, I guess. What I don't understand is how any of the women can take her seriously. She hasn't changed and will screw any of them over as soon as she has the chance and it benefits her.
Siggy is so annoying! Glad she's out!
Margaret Shepard says
Good riddance! Now this show, Atlanta and OC need to go with her. I just think all the housewives shows have jumped the shark!
Yep!!! When will they end ?? It's not like it used to be like in 2008 to 2011 it was awesome now it's booooring !!! (In my siggy voice ) just BORInG!
Ruthie says
Spunky2015 says
Good riddens. Siggy needs help or is just a major bitch and used to getting her own way. In Milan they were all walking on eggshells with her and afraid to speak. Scary Island II. Bravo dumped her entitled ass.
OT: Listened to an interview with Patty Stanger (I know) and Kelly Bensimon wants to be on her matchmaking show. Kelly has been blaming Bethenny all these years for ruining her life after Scary Island! Stanger said she straightened Kelly out on that. Siggy will be acting the same way IMO.
ravynrobyn says
That Kelly blames Bethenny for " ruining her life" makes me LAUGH and choke @ the same time. What a sad delusional loser she is..
Jrleaguer says
I am over Jersey and Atlanta. I have not seen one Atlanta episode and just remembered this morning at 2am that I had NJ and Bev Hills recorded, so I watched. Meh to both.
Andy will probably have Margaret back just to exploit her massive legal issues because that is just how he rolls.
Would anyone choose to go out on such a negative note? Her only hope would be to redeem herself next season. She must have destroyed her "career" (if that isn't actually just a figment of her imagination). Who wants to be remembered like this?
Cheryl B. (@cherylannburke1) says
I think Siggy brings zero to the show,so no biggie.
I still can't figure out what or why Siggy feels so victimized by the edit. She said what she said, and acts how she acts. I just don't get it.
And she was literally crying and screaming and complaining if EVERY SINGLE SCENE. It makes me wonder what we could have watched if Siggy wasn't on this season.
I wonder if Danielle will be back. She had her scenes all edited way down. She worked full time and was in nearly every scene yet the pushed her to part time. I think she will be out also.
I think Danielle is a pretty useless tool also.
The Lady Cocotte says
I was so excited for Danielle's return (I love me some crazy) but she's been a big disappointment. Not sure if her calculated strategy backfired or if it was due to editing but either way, boo!
Wasn't Danielle edited out of most of the season because of her rant laced with racial slurs? Not a fan of racists/bigots, so I guess it's karma??♀
Maybe so, but wasn't that recording from like three engagements ago? I guess you could be right, but she was all of those things and more when they fired her the first time. I don't see Bravo as having any sort of morality clause in their contracts.
Angela McCarthy says
Times have changed, and it's gonna come back and bite her in the ass. Maybe Bravo got smart and got ahead of a scandal? Pardon me while I choke on my own bitter laughter here.
Tasha says
Good riddance!
GLH says
Now that's what I call a Christmas Miracle! See'ya Sigalit! ???
Flo says
I'm sorry she was consumed by her own insecurity. Life lesson for Siggy.
lorir says
I wonder if she did this to avoid the Reunion. She has no defense for her tantrums. She is an adult who should know how to use her words. Also the allegations are coming out that she allegedly was married three times, allegedly was untruthful about facts of her early life, and allegedly got involved in a nefarious group of "professionals" to harrass Marge and her followers. If all of this is untrue, then I think she would have done herself better to address the allegations head on.
She's on the reunion, they filmed that already. I would imagine their contracts are pretty strict about reunion attendance after the Maloof absence on RHOBH.
The reunion was the final straw for Siggy. I am not sure if they will actually air what she did.
Toni Lee Gildea says
Have I missed something? What did she do at the reunion?
TT, spill what she did? We gotta know! Early Christmas present?
Katherine 2.0 says
She could stand up and bare her ass to America and that wouldn't be as shocking as what she's already exhibited this season.
Maybe she does the flounder dance remix.
I think there have been others who have skipped the reunion (think Jacqueline Laurita skipped one). But yes it's in their contract and they lose a big chunk of money if they don't show up.
scottishwitch says
While watching the last few episides, I was also thinking they need to being Caroline Manzo back – and Teresa's cousins (where is Rosie?) – or there won't be anymore HWONJ.
beekay says
Remember when one of the ladies mentioned that Caroline walked into her husband's office and saw his screwing his girlfriend on his desk? She went ballistic!!
Caroline refuses to film if others are allowed to mention her husband's affair. Bravo has to treat all housewives equally so can't let one have an "off limits" past like that. For her own spinoff "Manzoed with Children" she could make the rules.
I thought that was in reference to Teresa's husband
Kipper says
How many housewives have quit before the season even ends? Did they film the reunion already?
Yes, that is when her treachery was uncovered. I think Dolores needs to go to.
Bushwick says
I finally watched "Fauxpology" last night & I couldn't believe Siggy's bevavior. When the season started I was sure I'd be team Siggy & Dolores but I am so off the Siggy train. That she made Teresa & Danielle seem more reasonable and gracious was indicative that she has some serious issues. She destroyed her brand and her business single handedly with her stubborn, bratty and self-involved, victim behavior. I was mortified by her silence when Margaret apologized.
She's better off away from the show so she could do some self-assessment and hopefully mend her egotistical ways. I can't imagine how draining it is to be around her, constantly having to placate her fragile self-esteem. She's bent about being called Soggy. Really? I was teased as a child. So what? It was many years ago & I accept it as what kids do.
Her parents and spouses must have told her she was the center of the universe. This seems to be the first time she's realizing that she has to play nicely in the sandbox. She is way too old to be behavng like this. Tsk, tsk….
I can understand why Hitler would be a sensitive word for Jewish people. She needs to get off her high horse to see that Margaret said nothing anti-Semitic.
Bye Soggy. Go get the help you so desperately need.
Didn't Siggy sell tee shirts that said "Soggy" on them at that foolish seminar?
Bet we would of seen more of Milan if it wasn't for her.
Bushwick: bravo. So well said.
I have both ATL and NJ recorded but can't make myself watch either. I think I am over them. Does anyone have viewing numbers this season vs last season numbers? Is either show declining in audience?
Twilly says
Oh, I'm sure Bravo was very supportive about seeing her go. I bet they called the Uber and carried her bags to the corner!
JentheAUfan says
WAIT a damned minute!!!! What did I miss about her and the reunion????? It must be bad, along the lines of RHOA/phaedra because usually as Is normal with Andy, the trashier the better. So what in the world could she have said or done to have done her in? Please help me TT!!!!
The reunion is coming up. We will have to see what they show.
TT that isn't fair! I know you know something!!! No secrets allowed here ?
Imagine how awful it must be, that TT is not writing about it! Its not to avoid spoilers!
HarmonyHW says
Hopefully, we see the craziness. That last show's name was unusual, too, wasn't it?
Do you know what happened at the reunion…. siggy has her story but I'm not sure if I believe it
I have nothing against Deloris, but she is just so boring to me, I don't understand how she ever got cast. She's the ordinary woman who lives down the block and, simultaneously, the woman I don't want to be in 20 years – divorced, in a confusing relationship with her ex, pushing her kid to do even basic college apps, a former beauty who is falling apart physically, and still living in an ugly house lol. That's mean and yes I am totally projecting.
All I see when watching Deloris is her feet hanging from siggys ass because she sucked too hard.
Lisaj says
Christmas miracle!
Siggy hired a PR firm with shady, shady people a long time ago. She (or the people) blocked me just for warning her to look into their past. That was the first example of her extremely poor judgement IMO, and the PR firm undoubtedly pushed her towards the crazy behavior. Those trolls will be after Siggy when she realizes the mistake she made.
As far as I'm concerned, Soggy's "quting" is an early xmas gift. She's unbearable. She is batshit insane. Her so called job as a relationship expert is disgusting. Her own children can't get away from her. She doesn't respect her husband's opinions. She's batshit crazy and not in an entertaining 'makes for good tv way'.
housewifehater says
She is another one who is doing promotional work for products but is not being labled as an ad. Her ass-pellet doctor has a video with her and it is not labeled as an ad either. I got into a Twitter spat with her over it and she denied being compensated but no way could that be true. (no free product even?-REALLY?).
Also from the way that I understand it Bravo takes a cut from Housewives products and books except for maybe Bethenny's? I could be wrong about this.
Her whole portrayal of "menopause" was insulting. She should apologize to menopausal women everywhere instead of making the "bad edit" excuse.
It is interesting how offended she is by the "h" word. In NJ, it IS used a lot. It's like the human incarnation of satan, so never used to compliment hitler……I am wondering if Siggy has a point there that the word should not be said, but it is always used in a negative way but still if it is going to hurt people it is good to know that some people may be sensitive.
To reply to my reply and answer my own question, I really am curious about this "h"-thing. I am not Jewish but being from New Jersey and I am old enough to remember those number tattoos that survivors had on their arms, and our motto here about the Holocaust is "Never Forget".
By not using the "h"-word, or speaking about the evil, could it make us forget? I think that I really need to know if Siggy was out of line there making her personal trauma a "thing"? Margeret was using the name to say that she would NOT go to "Hitler's fashion show", even though her life would have been probably spared by Hitler. And that is exactly the kind of thing people from WW2 say and people who REMEMBER what happened. For Sig to take that personally was just a little too much–(unless I am wrong?)……………………………..this is going to bother me and I kind of hope that Siggy either clarifies this or that she gets some guidance and apologizes for making-up rules for everyone that only apply to people who know about her triggers.
Siggy is a mentally unstable person who was (and still is) trying to take Margaret down for coming in as a new quirky fun person. That was her schtick on her first season. She was pissed how quickly Margaret infiltrated the Teresa/Melissa group and was desperate to cut her out of the group.
Hitler, The Holocaust, Satan, Pol Pot, or Mao Zedong have nothing to do with whatever mental illness Siggy is dealing with.
Adonia Tedeschi says
Radchick says
"I bet someone is really Soggy today!" There goes the coffee through the nostrils. You crack me up T.
Agree about Caroline. Never thought I'd say that, but a season of women who don't really know rach other is so artificial. Was watching some first season NJ and remembered why I used to like Caroline. And Deloris was at her house. She'd galvanize this group.
Guest Appearance says
Siggy is great. The show needs her. She's going through hormonal hell and it's comedy gold compared to pure evil Danielle.
It's sad that Bravo keep a woman who has physically attacked 3 different people on television, a woman that calls people the N-word, but use the word, anti-semite, yeah let's fire her.
I could have withstood one meltdown – the one about the cake right at the start, for instance. It was kinda funny in a bizarre, sad way for about two minutes.
But then it went on and on, episode after episode, and culminated in what felt like a systematic and rather calculated takedown. She sat and thought about how to destroy Margaret, and threw out "anti-Semite" in the belief nobody would dare disagree with such a claim in case they got accused too. She plays emotional well, but I felt like that displayed a cold and devious side to Siggy that we hadn't seen until the Milan trip. It makes me wonder if some of the other stuff (such as humiliating Melissa at her house party) was planned in advance and less spontaneous than it appeared, too.
I knew Siggy went off the deep end when she stated that she told Teresa that she hates Marge and wants to destroy her! That's some seriously f**ked up statements to make against someone who hasn't done anything more than call her a silly name and trod on her camera time. Those kind of statements are usually reserved for someone who has done some seriously messed up things to you like murdering a family member or hurting your child.
*not stated that she told…. she told.
Buh-bye, buh-bitch. Ain't no one gonna miss you.
Carolyn Manzo
Kathy and sis Rosie
Manzo kids
Teresa just so Carolyn, Kathy and Dolores can Manzo kids can teach her the ingredientces lol of life
Kathy? Please…. the most boring housewife ever! The only thing I remember about her is cannolies.
And with that I am going back to Christmas cooking.
Happy holidays season everyone!
Manzo kids??? Please NO-NO-NO!
I think it is past time for all these shows to be taken off the air. They are boring. Same ol' thing week after week.
Hallelujah Jesus! Yes, I said that name too, does it offend her as well?? I'm so nauseated by her deflecting blame from herself and making linguini out of poop. My Grandfather went out to get a newspaper and was shot on the street by the Nazis in Russia. He never came home to a 5 year old (my mother), a newborn and my Grandmother all who loved him dearly. They never saw him again. They spent the war in camps, my Grandmother suffering unspeakable atrocities and violence. Hitler, Hitler, Hitler. He's an historic monstrosity. What the hell are we supposed to call him, Barney the big purple dinosaur?? It's only from history that we learn. We are reminded of that Hell and know never to go there again. Here in the US, we suffered the horrific tragedy of 9-11. What heck does this dumb broad Siggy expect us to do, call it
7-30??? She's insincere about her hurt feelings over the mention of the name. And she's too idiotic to comprehend that Margaret's statement was referring to him as an atrocity that would have been nice to her as a blond but was still a disgusting human being. It was an analogy that put him in the light he should be recalled. Margaret didn't deify the man for crying out loud. So Siggy is going to jump a history professor like a rabid dog because the name is mentioned? And by the way dumbass, the word is antisemitic not antisemetic the way she says it over and over. If you're going to use the word, do it right. Moreover, she accused Margaret of being a racist. Margaret didn't personally attack her. Accusing someone of racism is heavy, it ruins careers, businesses, families, friendships and lives. And don't you dare diminish the power that the word racist holds when leveled at people justifiably by throwing it out there in someone's face for no justifiable reason. She's behaving like a moron and an idiot. Margaret had nothing to apologize for and she did. Siggy said nothing like deflecting trash and continued to belabor it for another show. And then she tells Teresa that being called Soggy is no different than being called an adultress by that low crawling beetle bug. Soggy doesn't ruin marriages and destroy children's hearts. They are NOTHING alike. Hurt is NOT hurt. But stupid is definitely stupid in this case. I'm thoroughly disgusted as a child of survivors.
I share your outrage. It was unconscionable for Siggy to trot out her family's experience with the Holocaust just to try to win an argument and make someone look bad, in the manner she did. Her parents should be ashamed of her. It was an insult to the survivors of Hitler's regime.
I understand what Margaret was saying. Just because someone wouldn't be awful to you personally doesn't mean they are not a bad person. Siggy is emotionally manipulative. I can't imagine anyone would seek her out for life advice after watching this farce she's put on this season.
My great Uncle served as an Army Medic in WW2 and saw firsthand the atrocities committed when he was brought into one of the liberated camps. Whenever he spoke about, which wasn't frequent, tears came into his eyes. You could see/feel how much the experience affected him all those years later. He would get very angry when people compared Hitler and the Nazi's to trivial things.
Hitler and other truly awful events that have happened throughout history should be spoken about. That is the only way we learn to be better and keep them from happening again. Wehn we "forget" we are destined to repeat.
I have a different take on it. It was outed that Marg was supposed to go after Siggy on the show. I can see why Siggy felt the way she felt. Her reactions were over the top and not needed, but can understand why she did not like Marg.I believe this is the real Siggy, and I am surprised how viewers are surprised at her behavior when she always been this way. She displayed it on Season7 but not to a degree on this season. lol I believe Marg never liked Siggy due to her personality. It was insensitive for Marg to reference Hitler. Her analogy made perfect sense and a great one might I add, but I think saying that directly to Siggy and no one else felt like a dig to her. She mentions Hitler would not have killed her but did she not know that Hitler wanted to kill Siggy's father? It was insensitive, but SIggy calling Marg anti-Semitic was uncalled for and she was trying to assassinate her character. Also, something Marg mentioned was f-up. She stated she understand how the word jail was Tre trigger word, but she could not understand how Siggy might be sensitive to the word Hitler. What??? Some people might be sensitive to that name. Tre and Mel already mention that Marg is harsh and the only person she went after was SIggy. Siggy histrionics could be due to her over the top ego and something called histrionic personality disorder.
And, by the way Soggy wasn't in camps. My mother was. She saw, she lived everyday through the terror. The name Hitler is not one she wants buried or forgotten. And what would Soggy have us do, tear down the Holocaust museum because it offends her to hear or see the name? There is no word for how repulsed I am by her behavior.
Mich80. Thank you to your Uncle for his role in liberating the camps. The one constant that came through from my Grandmother was the incredible memory and joy of the American troops that came in and liberated their camp. She carried an Eisenhower dollar coin in her wallet to the day she died in 1991. She loved him for sending people like your Uncle. I have the coin now.
Thank you. Your Grandmother sounds like an awesome woman! So cool for you to have something that meant so much to her. Sadly, my Uncle passed away about 12 yrs ago from Alzheimers complications. He had a wonderful life, though, and traveled the world after his retirement. He had a real love of world history and I miss our in depth conversations about it when I would visit him and my Aunt. I learned so much more from him than I ever learned in school.
Aud says
TT is so right that Soggy thought she had rights as the quirky, fun one. I usually enjoy watching any HW think they can flip the script and shape viewer perception, but it really wasn't even fun to watch Sigs fail at that, lol.
I do love HW of NJ so much. It makes me laugh to watch it. And hearing malapropisms like ingrediences, they're like vinegar and oil, and sanguich. The show is my go to on HULU when I'm stressed, and I'M STRESSED. I can leave the reruns from past seasons on for 24 to 48 hours, laugh, fall asleep, and wake up and pick right back up with it. I went nuts when HULU took it off for a period of time. It is mental diversion at its best.
I see Siggy's twitter fans are still going strong. They are still claiming she is the greatest thing to hit RHONJ, even after learning about her shady twitter doings. Ugh! Fade into the night Siggy.
I hate to give Wendy Williams any credit, but she called this a long time ago. When Siggy first joined the show last season, Wendy predicted that her tenure would end in disaster. Looks like she was right.
Does RHONJ just need a whole new cast at this point? We're finally rid of the Manzo/Laurita families, but now it's time for the Giudice/Gorga families to bounce as well.
I said it earlier but the ratings have been abysmal this season. I truly thing they just need to let this franchise go or give it a complete reboot in a last ditch effort. Yes, Dallas has lower ratings but NJ production costs (including salary are much higher). I am sure something will give at this point.
Can we also talk about the fact that Siggy slapped and squeezed the butt of that maitre'd in that restaurant the first night in Boca Raton? Who does that, especially after the mortifying entrance she made, screaming at everyone as if it was her own personal party. And then she proceeded to go on and on and on about the cake incident when they were in HER town. HER TOWN??? I bet there are plenty of residents there that would be quick to tell her to get out of their town. What, does she think she's the mayor? Nuts, nuts, nuts. Her behavior was embarassing and classless.
lorip says
hopefully siggy will get the help she so desperately needs. miss rosy, kathy, caroline, dina – but they won't be back due to queen t hating them and all revolves around her! show is tired – this season pathetic – what does joe g do for a living – it appears to b the show!
Bye Felicia! She ruined this whole season for me. Such an ugly presence.
MeMe says
I agree, She is so mean and the biggest hypocrite. Who in the Hell would buy a self help book written by her now that she has showed her true self!

Представленный в марте 2003 года, Pentium M (произносится: Пентиум Эм) — процессор с архитектурой x86 (i686), разработанный и произведённый компанией Intel и предназначенный для использования в платформе Intel Centrino. Процессор первоначально разрабатывался для использования в мобильных компьютерах, о чём говорит буква «M», mobile. Перед официальным представлением широкой публике он носил кодовое имя «Banias». См. также Pentium III.

Обзор
Pentium M представляет собой новую и радикальную отправную точку Intel, он не является доработанной, с целью снижения потребления энергии, версией процессора для настольного компьютера Pentium 4, а представляет собой очень сильно доработанную версию процессора Pentium III на ядре Tualatin, который, в свою очередь, базировался на дизайне ядра Pentium Pro. Он специально оптимизирован с целью увеличения энергетической эффективности, жизненно необходимой характеристики для продления времени работы мобильных компьютеров от батареи. Работая с очень малым средним потреблением энергии и, соответственно, малым тепловыделением, по сравнению с настольными процессорами, Pentium M также работает и на малых тактовых частотах, но со сравнимой производительностью. Например, Pentium M, работающий на частоте 1,6 ГГц показывает среднюю производительность, сравнимую с 2,4-гигагерцевым Pentium 4 на ядре Northwood (400 MT/s системная шина) без технологии Hyper-Threading.

Процессор представляет собой вычислительное ядро от Pentium III, системную шину, совместимую с Pentium 4, усовершенствованные инструкции декодирования/выдачи, улучшенный блок предсказания переходов, поддержку SSE2 и большой кэш. Используется также новейший метод отключения неиспользуемых энергоёмких блоков кэша. Другие методы энергосбережения включают в себя динамическое изменение частоты и напряжения ядра, все Pentium M уменьшают свою тактовую частоту, если система простаивает, с целью сохранения энергии. Последняя инновация в данной области — технология SpeedStep 3 с расширенными количеством рабочих точек по сравнению с предыдущими версиями SpeedStep. С данной технологией 1,6-гигагерцевый Pentium M способен эффективно выбирать свою частоту в зависимости от нагрузки и выставлять 600 МГц, 800 МГц, 1000 МГц, 1200 МГц, 1400 МГц и 1600 МГц. Это и другие выдающиеся свойства Pentium M позволили добиться экстремально низкого энергопотребления, варьирующегося от 5 Вт до 27 Вт при полной нагрузке. Эти свойства сильно востребованы производителями мобильных компьютеров и позволяют использовать Pentium M в тонких, лёгких и маленьких ноутбуках.

Хотя Intel позиционирует Pentium M исключительно как мобильный продукт, производители материнских плат, такие как AOpen, DFI и MSI имеют в своём ассортименте Pentium M-совместимые материнские платы для энтузиастов, домашних развлекательных центров, рабочих станций и серверных приложений. А благодаря адаптеру CT-479, разработанному компанией ASUS, возможно использовать все процессоры Pentium M в материнских платах этой компании, разработанных для процессоров Socket 478 Pentium 4. Компания Shuttle Inc. предложила компактный настольный компьютер на процессоре Pentium M, позиционирующийся как очень тихий, потребляющий минимум энергии и занимающий мало места.

Процессоры Pentium M получили широкое распространение в индустрии встраиваемых систем. Низкое потребление Pentium M позволяет строить безвентиляторные и высокоинтегрированные встраиваемые компьютеры, такие как «Midget» компании Toradex.

Banias

Первый Pentium M, который носил кодовое имя Banias без номеров моделей, или модельный номер 705, производился с использованием 130-нм техпроцесса, имел частоты от 1,3 ГГц до 1,7 ГГц, использовал системную шину с пропускной способностью 400 MT/s и кэш 2-го уровня размером 1 МБ. Процессор имеет среднее тепловыделение (Thermal Design Power) 24 Вт.

Dothan

Intel представил улучшенный Pentium M, также известный как Dothan, 10 мая 2004 года. Процессор Dothan Pentium M является первым процессором Intel, для идентификации которого использовался так называемый «процессорный номер», который является более предпочтительным, чем стандартный, основанный на значениях тактовых частот. Старшие версии были известны как Pentium M 715 (1,5 ГГц), 725 (1,6 ГГц), 735 (1,7 ГГц), 745 (1,8 ГГц), 755 (2,0 ГГц) и 765 (2,1 ГГц).

Эта (700-я) серия процессоров Pentium M сохранила базовый дизайн оригинального Pentium M, но при этом производилась с использованием техпроцесса 90 нм, с увеличенным вдвое кэшем. Размер ядра составлял 84 мм², сохраняя близость с оригинальным Pentium M, кристалл 700-го содержал ~140 миллионов транзисторов, в основном за счёт введения огромного 2-МБ кэша. Тепловыделение также уменьшилось до 21 Вт (против 24 Вт у Banias), несмотря на ненамного более низкие частоты. Большое количество тестовых лабораторий, тестировавших вышедший Dothan, пришли к выводу, что системы, построенные на Banias и Dothan, имеют схожее время жизни от батарей.

По состоянию на июнь 2005 года, семейство процессоров Pentium M содержало процессоры с тактовой частотой от 1 ГГц до 2,26 ГГц. Модели с низкими частотами были низковольтными () и сверхнизковольтными (), что обеспечивало минимальное тепловыделение, а значит и большое время жизни от батарей. Модели 718 (1,3 ГГц), 738 (1,4 ГГц) и 758 (1,5 ГГц) были низковольтными (1,116 В) с тепловыделением 10 Вт. Модели 723 (1,0 ГГц), 733 (1,1 ГГц) и 753 (1,2 ГГц) являлись сверхнизковольтными (0,940 В) с тепловыделением 5 Вт.

Ревизия ядра Dothan была представлена в первом квартале 2005 года одновременно с набором системной логики Sonoma и поддерживает системную шину 533 MT/s и XD (реализации технологии NX bit от компании Intel). Эта линейка включала модели 730 (1,6 ГГц), 740 (1,73 ГГц), 750 (1,86 ГГц), 760 (2,0 ГГц) и 770 (2,13 ГГц). Эти модели имели среднее тепловыделение 27 Вт и 2 МБ кэш 2-го уровня.

В июле 2005 года Intel также представил 2 новые модели: 780 (2,26 ГГц) и низковольтную 778 (1,60 ГГц).

Core Solo и Core Duo

Следующее поколение процессоров, использующее микроархитектуру Pentium M, кодовое имя Yonah, которые представлены под новой торговой маркой Intel Core, как Core Solo и Core Duo.

Lion Links: 1/5/20
MLS SuperDraft, USMNT predictions, USWNT U-17s in Florida, FA Cup, and more!
By David Rohe@manelanddave Jan 5, 2020, 7:30am EST

Happy Sunday fun day, Mane Landers! Welcome to day one of two with me providing your Links. We're doing our best here to keep you informed on what is going on during the Lions' off-season. Let's get to the links!
MLS SuperDraft
The MLS SuperDraft is less than a week away, and since it is the off-season, everyone wants to speculate on who will go where. Our own Michael Citro proposed that UCF forward Cal Jennings might be a good pick for the Lions with the fifth pick of the draft. Others have Orlando City taking center back Henry Kessler from the University of Virginia, despite the recent center back acquisitions made by the club. Of course, Orlando City isn't the only club in the draft, so we'll have to see what goes down on Thursday.
New Year, New USMNT?
Many people make New Year's resolutions, and perhaps that would be a good idea for the USMNT given the past year. Our colleagues over at SBNation's Stars and Stripes FC have several bold predictions for the Yanks this coming year. How many goals will Jozy Altidore score? Could Christian Pulisic score twice that amount? As for wins, how do Nations League, World Cup qualifier, and U-23 Olympic victories sound? Yeah, I like it too. Now, we just need for it to come to pass.
More U.S. National Teams in Florida
Starting today, U-17 U.S. Women's National Team Head Coach Tracey Kevins is bringing in 28 players to a training camp in Lakewood Ranch. The youngest player to attend is Olivia Moultrie, who was born in 2005. Moultrie is the youngest American to turn professional on the women's side, and she has played matches with the Portland Thorns U-18/19 Girls' Development Academy Team. The January camp will last from Jan. 5-15, and the young Yanks will play England twice during the February camp. Kevins won't be the only coach, as USWNT legend Heather O'Reilly joins her as an assistant coach.
FA Cup Results
The third round of the FA Cup is in full swing, and the favorites are mostly taking care of business. Manchester City defeated Port Vale 4-1, and Wolves drew with Manchester United. All the better (or worse) since United wasn't able to put a shot on goal the entire match. If United looked tired, what might become of Liverpool today against their Merseyside rivals Everton? At least there will be something to watch today.
Free Kicks
As was reported yesterday, former OCB Coach Anthony Pulis is leaving Saint Louis FC to take a position with Inter Miami. Replacing Pulis at Saint Louis FC will be Steve Trittschuh, formerly the manager of Colorado Switchbacks FC.
O'Reilly isn't the only new U.S. coach, as Penn State women's soccer head coach Erica Dambach has been named assistant coach of the United States Women's National Team.
Finally, there's this. As The Mane Land reported last week, the club is in negotiations with Gallese. His old club bid him farewell on Friday and the deal may be close to completion. We're hearing he'll be in for a physical and to sign his paperwork within a week or so.
Regarding Pedro Gallese's move to Orlando City, I am told the Peruvian goalkeeper's deal is almost across the finish line. Only thing left is league's approval. Expectation is that it goes through. #MLS
— Roger Gonzalez (@RGonzalezCBS) January 5, 2020
That will do it until tomorrow. See you then!
Lion Links: 1/27/23 Lions sign Ramiro Enrique, Cory Price named Director of Medical and Performance, Earnie Stewart exits, and more.
Orlando City is Reaping the Benefits of the Wilf Family's Ownership Life has been good under the Wilf family's ownership so far. It's time to see if it can get even better.

A Growing Program
Suz Trusty — June 1, 2008
Building more fields at the University of Alabama
PHOTOS COURTESY OF KARLA HUBBERT.
Paul Patterson is landscape, horticulture and athletic turf supervisor for the facilities and operations department of the University of Alabama in Huntsville. That title is an indication of the multiple areas he oversees on the 400-acre campus of the Division II university that currently serves nearly 8,500 students. Along with the athletic fields, he and his grounds department staff of six, as well as a mowing crew of five, are responsible for the general landscape, the trees, shrubs and flowerbeds; pressure cleaning of the walkways, patios, building entry areas and parking lots; and annual parking lot striping and crosswalk repainting.
Paul Patterson mows the outfield during the early spring.
UAH is a growing place, with new construction being an ongoing part of that growth. Patterson becomes involved to varying degrees with the projects, as nearly all affect the surrounding landscape. In 2005, funding became available to tackle the initial stages of development for more on-campus athletic fields. This project, from construction through establishment and long-term maintenance, became the responsibility of the grounds department. Work began in late fall of 2005 and was completed in the spring of 2006.
A small section of the landscape features Paul Patterson and his grounds department maintain.
Building the fields
The concept had been included in the overall strategic plan and a 16-acre site on the southeastern side of campus had been identified as the location for the complex. "At that point, we had one field, a combination practice and game field for soccer," says Patterson. "Our baseball team practiced and played at Joe Davis Stadium, a minor league facility. Our softball team practiced and played at a city-owned facility. Both teams were cut short on practice with the need to work their schedules around other field use and travel to and from the sites. Building the fields was the first priority, so they could at least practice on campus."
Construction of the dugouts, bleachers and other physical structures was to be deferred until additional targeted funding was raised.
Patterson says, "We were not satisfied with the original design. I did a lot of research into who the potential contractors might be and what design and procedures we needed to put in place to ensure that the project going out to bid would specify what would be needed to produce the desired results. The contractor selected, ProRain Irrigation Services of Athens, Ala., was experienced in sports field construction and irrigation system design and installation, and brought their expertise to the project.
"My role became that of construction coordinator, working with their personnel on site and ordering and bringing in materials as needed to keep the work on target. The design puts the baseball and softball fields next to each other. During the developmental stage, we were able to expand the project to include a full-size soccer practice field on the same site, giving us 10 acres of new athletic fields there."
At some point in the past, the site base soil, a sticky red clay, had been topped with material dredged from the campus lake. In addition, topsoil removed during construction of a local shopping center had been spread over the area. Patterson says, "That material was rich black dirt that had been in pasture for nearly 100 years. It all ended up benefiting us. ProRain deep-tilled to a depth of 12 inches, thoroughly mixing the different soils as a base for the softball and baseball fields and the soil profile for the soccer practice field. The soccer field is crowned from the center to each sideline with about a .5 percent slope for surface drainage.
"The baseball field was topped with an amended soil mix of 70 percent sand and 30 percent clay. For the softball field, we used 70 percent sand, 20 percent clay and 10 percent native soil. Both of these fields have a 1 percent slope from the backstop toward the outfield. We do have two subsurface drainage spots, one at the transition of the infield to the outfield and one in the warning track next to the fence. Since we'll tarp the infield, where most of the play takes place, we don't need subsurface drainage beneath it. There's less action in the outfield and sheet drainage there is sufficient to take the water off quickly."
With the soccer practice field nearly completed and the baseball and softball fields about 80 percent complete, a different funding source allowed for the development of a 2-acre, multipurpose intramural field on the eastern edge of campus. Intramural activities had not had dedicated athletic space previously, using an open area that was maintained as general landscape turf, so this was a very welcome addition to their program.
Both fraternity and sorority housing had been built immediately north of the site. Patterson says, "We were able to recycle the excess soil that had been excavated from that construction into the new field. The area needed additional soil, so we saved both the purchase and transportation costs. It was relatively easy to move the machinery to that site as needed so logistics was not a problem. The site was a flat plane with about a 1 percent slope from one end to another. We were able to match that contour for surface drainage."
The original soccer game/practice field is an old campus fixture that had been reworked several times over the years. Patterson says, "Its base soil is the region's native red clay that has been augmented over time with organic matter and aeration, resulting in a decent, fairly well-draining soil. It has a conglomeration of grasses, including Tifway 419, some common bermuda, and some Sundevil, seeded during the last renovation 10 years ago."
Turf selection for the new fields focused on seasonal playability and long-term maintenance. The baseball and softball fields were sodded with Tifway 419 bermuda. The soccer practice field was seeded with Riviera bermuda. "Baseball and softball have a short fall practice season. Soccer play runs into November here, so we went with the more cold-tolerant variety for that field to keep it growing as late as possible. We do overseed all the bermuda fields with perennial ryegrass. By the time we need to take out the overseeding in the late spring, the short soccer practice season and the softball and baseball seasons are completed. We can keep the green so they look good for use, then spray out the rye with the summer as downtime to bring all the fields back into top playable condition."
The intramural field was seeded with a mix of DuraBlue and ThermalBlue, bluegrass varieties developed to handle southern conditions. Patterson says, "It's been a very interesting endeavor here in north Alabama. The grass looks like fescue and acts like bermuda. It came through the grow-in and is doing quite well. All the organized intramural play, from flag football and soccer to ultimate Frisbee, take place in the spring and fall, so the cool-season turfgrass makes sense for that space."
Seasonal color change-outs are part of the responsibilities of the grounds department.

Coordinating the program
Patterson has an annual master plan and develops weekly and daily plans from that to make sure all needed tasks are covered. Each day starts with a short staff meeting at 7 a.m. to review what has been completed and set up daily assignments. He says, "I try to be as proactive as possible, but we also operate off a work order system and have a constant stream of requests. I prioritize these, with first attention going to anything that hinders access to a building. Preparation for special events is also high priority. We may need to switch assignments temporarily to concentrate on a specific area or task. It works because our staff is not only knowledgeable, but also flexible and dedicated to producing the best possible results in any situation."
Maintenance of the on-campus fields has been a learning process for everyone. Patterson's staff handles the daily and seasonal maintenance program and the mowing because the timing and techniques vary greatly from general landscape turf mowing. "We've developed a great working relationship with all the coaches," says Patterson. "They're very cooperative, working with us on techniques such as rotating practice drill sites, to reduce field wear and produce top playability. The baseball and softball coaches and teams tackle the majority of the skinned area work themselves, understanding that players that take ownership of their fields not only have a greater respect for their facilities, but also gain insight into how field conditions impact play."
Summer field use is minimal. The baseball and softball teams only practice as long as they're in postseason competition. Soccer has a few weeks of camps. That leaves adequate time for post-season renovation and downtime for recovery. It also gives Patterson and his staff time to concentrate of other projects.
This summer brings more construction as the structures are being built for the softball and baseball fields. Patterson says, "General contractors are doing this project, so I'm working closely with them to reduce any impact of that construction on the fields themselves. They're learning techniques, such as laying plywood over the areas of the field the cement truck will travel, that they haven't needed to use before. It's another case of being proactive in an education issue. I've found that if you teach people this is how you do it in this instance, and add why it makes a difference, you'll have a lot of cooperation."

Gézaincourt is a village a little south-west of the town of Doullens, halfway between the main roads from Doullens to Abbeville and Doullens to Amiens. The Communal Cemetery and Extension are on the east side of the village. There is a Commonwealth War Graves Commission signpost outside Doullens on the road towards Amiens.
This cemetery is permanently open and may be visited at any time.
The adjoining EXTENSION was opened in March 1916 and used until March 1917, and again from March to October 1918. In most cases, the burials were carried out from casualty clearing stations and, in June to August 1918, from the 3rd Canadian Stationary Hospital.


Archbishop Denis Hart, President of the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference has welcomed the appointment by the Holy Father, Pope Francis, of Fr. Antoine Tarabay O.L.M. (Lebanese Maronite Order) as Bishop of the Diocese of St. Maroun (Maronites) in Australia.
"For the Australian Bishops, I warmly welcome the appointment by Pope Francis of Fr. Antoine Tarabay to the Maronite diocese of Australia", said Archbishop Hart.
Fr. Tarabay was born in Northern Lebanon in 1967, and was ordained a priest in 1993.
He is currently rector of St. Charbel's monastery, church and college in Punchbowl, New South Wales.
He completed a Doctorate in Moral Theology at the Alfonsiana Faculty of the Lateran University in a comparative study of Bioethical teachings in the Catholic and Muslim traditions.
"Fr. Tarabay is a very worthy addition to the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference, and will be welcomed by bishops and people alike", said Archbishop Hart.
Archbishop Hart extended his thanks to Bishop Ad Abikaram for his exceptional leadership of the Maronite Church in Australia.


You are here: Start / Advice & Inspiration / Blog / 2017 / July / What's your kitchen style?
The first thing most of us feel when it comes to choosing a new kitchen is excitement. After spending one too many years putting up with a kitchen you don't love spending time in, it's a great feeling to know there are so many beautiful styles out there that could soon be yours.
After that initial feeling though, it's natural to feel slightly overwhelmed by the sheer number of choices available. That's when you need to stop and take a deep breath. Instead of getting caught up in all the different fixtures and finishes, first off it's important to take a moment to consider how your new kitchen will fit within the rest of your home. By choosing a style that complements the rest of your house or apartment, you'll ensure a consistent feel and avoid ending up with a kitchen that doesn't quite feel like home.
So with that in mind, we're here to help you take that first big leap towards choosing your new kitchen by narrowing down the selection to three main kitchen styles.
The modern kitchen style is minimalistic and chic, with clever design features that are both effortlessly stylish and enviably practical. Cabinets in on-trend hues like soothing grey or splashbacks in vibrant Berry pink, drawers with sleek concealed handles and smooth-opening cupboards are all part of the appeal of a modern kitchen design. To finish off the look, add a statement pendant lamp, Scandi-inspired bar stools or on-trend geometric prints.
In contrast to the sleek minimalism of modern kitchens, country style shaker kitchens take their inspiration from the rustic charm of rural farmhouses to create a welcoming, homely feel. This category is typically characterised by worktops in warm, rich woodgrain, shaker-style cabinet doors and glass-fronted display shelves that are perfect for showcasing handmade pottery or beautiful glassware.
Traditional kitchens are timeless style staples that never go out of fashion. Kitchen units in this style tend to be lovingly crafted in gorgeous hardwoods like regal oak, smooth maple or glossy walnut, creating an air of masterful craftsmanship and elegance. This kitchen style provides the perfect home for ornate mirrors, antique crystal glasses and perhaps even a collection of fine aged whiskys.
We bet that as you read this blog, you instantly recognised which of the three main styles best matches your own personal taste for your dream kitchen. Now, with that first step behind you, you can narrow down our kitchen gallery to one of these categories to make planning your new kitchen oh-so-simple.

Q: What changes were made to the IBM Worklight JSONStore API between versions 6.1 and 6.2? It appears that as part of the transition from IBM Worklight 6.1 and 6.2, changes were made to the JSONStore API. Specifically, it looks as if the load() method (along with others) were deprecated.
It appears that the replacement for this approach is to instead use the change() API that's part of JSONStoreInstance to refresh data from an adapter call (i.e. syncing it from the backend), and to mark it as "clean" along the way. I make this inference from the most recent versions of the JSONStore tutorial for MobileFirst Platform 6.3.
However, this change to the JSONStore isn't discussed in the "what's new in 6.2" section of the Knowledge Center, as far as I can spot.
Can someone confirm this is indeed the intended change? Is there any more information on what changing with JSONStore support between 6.1 and 6.2 publicly available?

A: Working with JSONStore and external data in v6.2 is documented here. There are APIs for transactions (i.e. startTransaction, commitTransaction, rollbackTransaction). There are security utilities here. There's an advancedFind API that uses QueryPart objects and other find API improvements (i.e. filter, sort). There's also a native JSONStore API for Android and iOS with examples here. The structure of the documentation changed and new sections got added (e.g. general terminology) while some old sections got updated. There's a way to enable the collection of analytics information (e.g. file size, operation time) from JSONStore (Android & iOS, hybrid & native) to the Operational Analytics console, that's documented here. There are also hybrid JSONStore APIs for Windows Phone 8 and Windows 8.

I have started to wonder where are all the community created scenarios and campaigns? We have two scenarios at CMMODS IV and a couple more here at the forums. CMSF I had so much user-created content. I thought a lot more would have been modernized and ported to CMSF II at this point.
We need a hero to test this in the editor. You shall get my upvote for it!
Thanks for the links. I did study the manual. It got me through the basics USMC TO&E. I find the concept of Combined Anti-Armor Team (CAAT) especially interesting. Seemed to work well against the Syrians. I have had no luck with similar formations against the Russians in CMBS.
My mistake, I was wrong. I had no idea AAV platoon has 12 tracks. I presumed automatically that in this case, a platoon equals 4 (+/- 1). So that would make 4 AAVs per platoon of marines. a surprisingly large amount of extra "seats".
I just played through the marines campaign. all around a good campaign (just a couple of badly implemented mission). One thing really struck my eye. Every squad has its own AAV and also one for the platoons HQ units... quite from the manual: "Each Marines Rifle Company can fit into an AAV/MTVR Platoon, which means the typical scenario should not have more than one platoon of transport. Note that itis possible to purchase the AAVs in Company strength, which is enough capacity to move an entire Marines Infantry Battalion." So why am I seeing a company of AAV for a company of infantry? This silliness is a rule in the Semper Fi campaing, not an exemption.
Nice mod! Always disliked the pajama boy look.
I thought the black-uniformed Syrians were intended to persistent JIhadists, not spec-ops.
"safe" to start playing US campaigns?

French President, Emmanuel Macron has posited that the Afro beat legend, late Fela Anikulapo Kuti and his two sons, Femi and Seun are more famous in France and Europe than in Nigeria.
He said this during his visit to African Shrine Tuesday night, adding, "I think very often when you speak of the African culture in Europe, those who succeeded in Europe and in France, which is different most of the times, are not dramatically very famous in Nigeria or in Africa.
"I mean they are big successes but the Shrine is a cultural hub, an iconic hub and is very important for me first on a personal level, and that is why I want to say with a lot of humility that I recognise the importance of this place, I recognise the place of culture in this current environment,'' he said.

Two words. Well deserved. Or as well deserved as it can be when you boast the best and costliest squad in English football and you leave it until deep into stoppage time before claiming what you believe is rightfully yours. It's estimated that Manchester United were champions for precisely thirteen seconds until Sergio Aguero took advantage of some slack marking in the Q.P.R. defence to crash home the title winning goal and end 44 years of anguish for the blue quarter of Manchester.
Slackness in the Rangers rearguard? Two more words. Or rather a name. Kevin Hitchcock. With those additional minutes being played at the Etihad Stadium, the latter vacated the Q.P.R. dug-out to get the word out to the players that Bolton had been held at Stoke and they were safe from relegation. Cheers Kevin, you might just as well have joined City on their open-top bus parade to Albert Square on Monday evening.
A couple of more names to throw into the mix. Roberto Mancini. Have to say he deserved the title. At times during the season he out mind-gamed Alex Ferguson and he did so in charge of a team that undoubtedly played the better football over the course of the campaign and netted the most goals. You can't argue with that.
And Vincent Kompany. Another candidate to richly merit a Premiership medal, a true hero who never shirked a challenge or gave up believing.
City's fans? They've probably had a lot to listen to over the past couple of decades – and Ferguson was still playing the history card after the final whistle at both the Etihad and the Stadium of Light – and no doubt will believe that they are truly top dogs in Manchester now. And indeed England. But apart from those who leapt onto the bandwagon as the season progressed, at least those supporters are light blue to a man and a woman. And wherever City go in the future – and those banking billions suggest there's more to come – they'll remain so whatever happens.
But others you have to question. I remember back to the tail end of the season when United broke their own 25 year duck. Two late goals from Steve Bruce – so late they were almost scored in the following game – against Sheffield Wednesday in a crucial close to title decider at Old Trafford. And two figures leaping from the United bench and dancing onto the pitch at the joy of it all. Messrs. Ferguson and Brian Kidd. Who will ever forget that abiding image?
I remembered it again when Aguero knocked home the winner on Sunday and the City bench erupted and Kidd was again to the forefront in the celebrations. But that's the way of the footballing world – being a manager or a coach or even a player is not like being a fan. Not even when you cross the great divide in Manchester or anywhere else.
Just ask Carol Tevez. The man who took a three month leave of absence from City – one instance where Mancini did slip up, allowing the Argentinian back into the fold after swearing he would never pull on the club jersey again – and now brandishing a winners' medal. Close to sickening is what some label it. But not as ailment inducing as the sight of the little striker displaying his 'R.I.P. Fergie' placard from the open-top bus during the celebratory parade. Apologies have followed but too little, too late. It was as churlish a gesture as you can get and I'll be surprised if he's still being welcomed in Manchester come next season.
But whatever. City's title and the celebration go on in blue heaven.
Oh, and did I mention another couple of names? Joey Barton. Plonker of This and Every Other Year. Another man for the open-top bus.
And then there's the almost forgotten man. The man whose absence from the red rearguard did as much as anything in United throwing away that eight point advantage they held with just a handful of games to go.
For you can be sure had Nemanja Vidic been part of United's defence, Everton would not have snatched four goals at Old Trafford and some of us wouldn't be conceding with as much grace as we can possibly muster that the best team won in the end.
So now we know. I had questioned last week why Felix Healy hadn't reacted with any degree of passion from the bench during Finn Harps loss to Athlone Town the previous weekend. Why he looked almost disinterested in the proceedings at Finn Park as the home side struggled to make any impact.
And now, like I say, we know. He informed the players after that equally disappointing 3-0 defeat at Wexford Youths – albeit not helped by two sendings-off – that other commitments were prompting him to quit the Harps post.
Peter Hutton is staying and it's good to see Sean McGowan coming in as his right hand man. The latter knows the set-up and can help ignite a season that has been largely disappointing so far when we thought at the start of it that this could be a turning year.
Difficult to see, even with this new partnership in control, the team being able to overcome respective points deficits of sixteen and twelve, the tally that separates them from the top two, but at least they can begin to make inroads starting with tomorrow night's home clash with Waterford United where the least we can expect is a fire in the belly approach from the off.

Hitting the Road for Street Music
Smells Like Van Spirit
Hitting the Road for Street...
Marten Berger is about to embark upon an epic road trip to find Europe's best street musicians.
Travelling in an old ice cream truck he has converted into a mobile recording studio, the 24-year-old producer plans to visit some 30 countries over the next 12 months. He wants to record a double album unlike any other by seeking out talented buskers along the way.
SmellsLikeVanSpirit - Hitting the road for street music
Marten Berger is about to embark upon an epic road trip to find Europe's best street musicians. Travelling in an old ice cream truck he has converte…
Marten hopes his grand musical journey will give people a greater appreciation of Europe's unsung troubadours – those musicians normally just playing to passersby on their local street corner.
"Street music is normally seen as just another part of the city. You walk by, you have appointments and you can't stay long. Maybe you think it's cool and pay a euro or something," Marten says, speaking to Shure from inside the confines of his cosy converted VW bus.
"I want to change the perspective and set those musicians (playing under) sunlight into the spotlight. I'm going to travel to every corner of Europe searching for the best our continent has to offer to record their music and share it with people."
The initial spark for such a big trip came suddenly two years ago, after Marten met and recorded a gifted street musician in The Netherlands.
"It was just so authentic when I heard him, I got goose bumps," he explains. "Then I thought how awesome it would be if someone would travel around Europe and record all those hidden, secret talents we have on the streets, so we can enjoy their music at home. And then I decided that's exactly what I'm going to do."
A European Project
Originally from Germany, Marten has studied music production and composition in the Dutch city of Enschede for the past five years. So it isn't surprising he sees both himself and his border-crossing project in a broader European context.
"I feel like a European citizen," he says. "I want to bring all these cultures and countries into this tiny van."
Speaking of which, Marten came up with the catchy moniker for his project one evening while joking around with a buddy. They started replacing one word in popular song titles with "van" just for fun. Eventually Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" came up and the name was found.
Starting in May, his ambitious route will take him northward from the Netherlands to Scandinavia before heading south towards the end of the summer. Just how long he can stay on the road depended on his crowdfunding campaign.
Marten Berger
The more donations I receive, the more countries I can visit and the more musicians I can record
He likens his undertaking to that of a wandering tradesman, a traditional journey made in Europe for centuries.
"My big dream is to travel to each and every country in the European Union. I can manage two countries a month. Maybe smaller countries like Luxembourg will go quicker. But bigger ones like France and Germany will take longer."
People can send me suggestions like: 'Hey when you're in Barcelona you have to check this guy out, he's great!', I don't only want record guitar music. I want to capture the whole subculture playing on the streets. I try to find songs that tell a story.
Supporting Marten's project with studio gear and financial backing, Shure will be checking in with him throughout his journey. You can donate to his crowdfunding campaign and follow his progress on www.smellslikevanspirit.eu

This course is relevant for professionals who wish to gain understanding of the spatial and temporal variation of physical parameters in the subsurface.
Many earth processes have a source or a component below the surface. Understanding of the spatial and temporal variation of physical parameters in the subsurface, therefore gives additional insight in these processes and their extent.
The development of homogeneous 3D subsurface information systems is thus important for various fields such as for environmental monitoring, natural hazards, and earth resources. This is done on the basis of bore hole data, and field-, airborne- and satellite based geophysical data sets that are used to generate subsurface volumes in 3D GIS environment. These volumes are linked to subsurface dynamic process models that are used to study dynamic phenomena such as resource deposits, pollution plumes, groundwater flow in aquifers etc.
This course is relevant for professionals who: Have to carry out geophysical surveys, data processing or analysis; Want to use results from geophysical surveys in their own work; Are exposed to geophysics in their work environment and would like to gain a better understanding.
Create an understanding of tools to study, model and visualize the subsurface in 2D/3D, and assessment of the applicability of geophysics in 3D subsurface characterization for various applications.
Instruction modes The general approach of the course is task based learning which blends theory and practice. The study load is 20 to 24 hours per week. All materials including (most of) the software will be provided online in ITC's digital learning environment Blackboard. For convenient offline study most materials will be sent on a CD-Rom. We will use email for individual communication and a discussion board in Blackboard for group communication.

Bolton School Junior Girls
Personal Social and Health Education
Patterdale Hall
Hesketh House Filled with Music for Festival
The annual Music Festival at Hesketh House once again allowed the Junior Girls to show off their talents in front of an appreciative audience. In addition, every pupil in the Junior Girls' School was able to spend time as a member of the audience, and they were joined by parents and family members as they enjoyed the beautiful music.
The Music Festival was split into two days. The first day was devoted to pianists, adjudicated by Ms Kathryn Page, and there were classes for each year group. The second day was adjudicated by Mr Philip Dewhurst, and focused on instrumental and ensemble performances. The classes were split into Vocal, Beginners, Strings, and Woodwind, Brass and Drums. Instruments included the double bass, saxophone, electric guitar, drum kit, violin, clarinet, ukulele and more! The Ensembles Class brought the Music Festival to a fitting close with pair and group performances.
Both adjudicators had the difficult task of awarding first, second and third prize for each Class, which was no easy feat as they were very impressed by all of the pupils! Each performer was given individual, constructive feedback and a certificate, with the prize winners additionally receiving trophies.
The support of the music teachers helped to make the two-day Music Festival a huge success. Junior Girls' Headmistress Mrs Laverick also gave special thanks to Mr Death, who expertly accompanied pupils on piano during their instrumental and vocal performances.

Florida wildlife park director has part of arm amputated following alligator attack
Robert F. Bukaty/AP
FILE: In this Tuesday, Oct. 22, 2019 photo, an alligator prowls in Florida.
VENUS, Fla. — An alligator attack has reportedly left the director of a wildlife park in Florida without his hand and part of his arm.
According to a post on the Florida Gator Gardens Facebook page, Greg Graziani was injured while interacting with the gator on Aug. 17.
The park said part of Graziani's arm was lost in the attack, but doctors reattached it during a 9-hour surgery.
However, he had another surgery about a week later to determine whether the traumatized tissue was still viable.
An updated post on the Florida Gator Gardens Facebook page says Graziani's hand was not salvageable and doctors had to perform a below-the-elbow amputation, preserving half of his forearm.
Graziani will have the option to be fitted for a prosthetic, according to the post.
The alligator involved in the attack was not injured and will remain at the wildlife park, according to Florida Gator Gardens.

3 Things That Can Go Wrong for Sirius XM Stock in 2020
The satellite radio behemoth is coming through with another winning year in 2019, but the year ahead could be a different story.

History will look kindly on how 2019 played out for Sirius XM Holdings (NASDAQ:SIRI). The shares have yet to take out the 14-year highs they set in the springtime of last year, but it's another winning year for the resilient satellite-radio provider. Sirius XM closed last week at its 2019 peak, and the 27% dividend-adjusted gain will easily stretch its impressive streak of positive returns to 11 years in a row.
This is also the year that Sirius XM closed on its $3.5 billion purchase of Pandora Media, opening the door for Sirius XM to make a larger dent in the streaming market that's growing faster than its flagship business. Sirius XM is on a roll right now, but there will be challenges in the year ahead. Let's look at some of the things that can go wrong in 2020.
Image source: Sirius XM Holdings.
1. We could be at peak Pandora
There are a lot of reasons to like the acquisition of Pandora that closed 11 months ago. Revenue growth naturally was kicked up a notch, given the incremental nature of any purchase, but the excitement here stems from the cross-selling potential. Pandora listeners will be exposed to Sirius XM's namesake radio platform, and more importantly, the folks paying for satellite radio are an ideal target audience for Pandora's premium offering.
No deal is perfect, though, and this is no exception. One of the reasons Pandora was available at a reasonable cost -- the $3.5 billion price tag is now less than 10% of the enterprise value of the combined company, despite Pandora contributing more than 20% of the revenue -- is that profitability was spotty and the app's streaming audience was starting to thin out.
Pandora has helped offset the slide through gains in advertising and getting more of its free users to pay for premium features. However, even those gains are starting to slow. Pandora's top-line growth slowed to 7% in its latest quarter, matching the gain at Sirius XM. If Sirius XM isn't able to improve Pandora's profitability or find a way to get listener growth to increase or at least stabilize, it could weigh on the stock in 2020.
2. Negative auto trends can continue
Satellite radio makes up the lion's share of Sirius XM's revenue, and that means that it's at the mercy of strong auto-ownership trends. A satellite-radio subscription comes at a fixed monthly cost, and the value proposition is only as strong as a car that's being used. Consumers -- particularly young people -- aren't buying cars the way they used to.
U.S. auto sales have declined in 2019, and industry experts are bracing for the weakness to continue into 2020. Sirius XM's subscriber count continues to grow, despite the ownership headwind. Sirius XM has a record 34.6 million total subscribers, a number that should continue to grow at a low-single-digit pace unless car sales take a sharper turn for the worse.
3. Audio entertainment can evolve
Sirius XM has been one of the best-performing stocks over the past 10 years, and it's done so by climbing a wall of worry. A few years ago, bears would argue that satellite radio would be a transitory technology, eventually displaced by apps streaming through connected cars. Automobiles are now in tune with your phone, but the creature comforts of Sirius XM continue to scratch out a growing audience.
Sirius XM offered a better mousetrap to terrestrial radio, and while streaming apps have their advantages -- primarily cost, range, and personalization -- there's still something appealing about satellite radio. If a truly superior product with marquee content does roll out, things will get interesting, and that naturally would trip up Sirius XM's standing as a market-thumping growth stock.

Q: Why are the DIV Containers only showing off with pixel and do not with percentage I just want to design a simple chat with CSS for learning purpose, but I can not understand, why the 2 DIV container are not showing off like I would them to.
Here is my current code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>

    <title>Chat</title>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">

        <input type="text">

So why does it work with px and with % it does not ?

A: When using percentages for height, the height is relative to a parent, so you need to establish a baseline. Typically this is done by setting the height on the html and body elements. In your case, you'd also need to set it on the section:
html, body, section {
    height:100%;
}
