Spain's Popular Party threatens repression if Catalan authorities declare independence
By Alejandro López
The Popular Party (PP) government has stepped up its threats of carrying out brutal repression in Catalonia on the eve of today's potential unilateral declaration on independence by the Catalan parliament.
Yesterday, PP Secretary of Communication Pablo Casado compared the future fate of Catalan Premier Carles Puigdemont with that of Lluís Companys, president of the regional government of 1934 that declared independence. Exiled after the war, he was captured by the Gestapo in Paris and handed over to the fascist regime of Francisco Franco, who had him executed by firing squad in 1940.
"We will prevent independence, we will take whatever measures are necessary, everything will be done without giving up any instrument of the Constitution or the Penal Code," said Casado. The Spanish government is promising "a firm hand against secessionism. We shouldn't repeat the story because [Puigdemont] might just end up like Companys!"
Journalist Anabel Díez from El País reacted immediately and asked Casado to confirm whether he was referring to 1934, when Companys was jailed for proclaiming the Catalan State within the Spanish Federal Republic, or when he was executed in 1940.
The answer was ambiguous: "I mean what for them [the separatists] is an epic date—the declaration of independence—had a response. I am neither a historian nor a futurist."
After the press conference, the PP was obliged to specify the answer and confirm that Casado was referring to the imprisonment of Companys.
This threat should be taken as a warning. In October 6, 1934, Companys proclaimed the Catalan State within the Spanish Federal Republic amid a revolutionary struggle of workers and peasants throughout Spain, especially in Asturias, where workers fought the army for two weeks. It was sparked by the entry of fascist ministers into a conservative government, in the context of fascism's takeover of Germany, Italy and Austria.
The Catalan Republic lasted just 10 hours before it was violently repressed. The result was 46 dead, 3,000 imprisoned, the criminal conviction of Companys, Catalan self-government suspended indefinitely and the region put under military rule. Having crushed the Catalan secessionists and the Asturias commune, the government imposed savage repression throughout Spain, closing down newspapers and detaining thousands of workers and left-wing political leaders.
With these statements, Casado was making clear that the PP will not even accept a "symbolic" unilateral declaration on independence today, as some sources in Puigdemont's Democratic Party of Catalonia (PDdeCat) are suggesting.
Throughout yesterday, PP members continued their threats. The government delegate in Catalonia, Enric Millo, said that national police and civil guards deployed in Catalonia are ready to halt a unilateral declaration of independence.
In an interview on radio station COPE, Deputy Prime Minister Soraya Sáenz de Santamaría warned that the government will take "all necessary measures", without ruling out Article 155 of the constitution if a unilateral declaration of independence is passed today—with the objective of "restoring law and democracy." Invoking Article 155 would suspend the Catalan government and impose direct rule from Madrid. Such a measure cannot be implemented without some sort of military deployment to back up the 12,000 to 16,000 police and civil guards in Catalonia.
Other options include invoking Article 116, which would impose a state of emergency in Catalonia and herald the deployment of the army and the suspension of basic democratic rights—including freedom of thought and expression, the right to strike, elections and the imposition of press censorship.
The Socialist Party (PSOE) also intervened yesterday. General Secretary Pedro Sánchez made clear he would support any measures taken by the PP. Sánchez said the PSOE "will support the response of the government before the unilateral bankruptcy which threatens the coexistence between the Spaniards."
The fascistic atmosphere promoted by these political forces and the media, which is denigrating the Catalan separatists with every possible insult, has emboldened the far right.
A group of fascists in Valencia attacked a demonstration organised by the pseudo-left Catalan separatist group Candidatures of Popular Unity (CUP) and its youth wing Arran under the slogan "independence is the only way." The protest was attacked by an unauthorised counter-demonstration led by the group Yomus that was allowed to go ahead. A number of people were injured, including a woman, a couple and a photojournalist from El País, after fascists armed with sticks and iron bars attacked.
Online videos show the studied indifference of the national police, glorified these days by the press for their repression in the referendum, to flagrant violence on the part of the fascists. The attack was recorded live on LaSexta.
Under conditions in which the ruling class, backed by the media, is preparing a massive crackdown in Catalonia, the pseudo-left has demonstrated its political bankruptcy. No tendency is seeking to mobilise workers in both Catalonia and Spain against the ruling class drive towards dictatorship. Not one is making an international appeal to the European working class, under conditions where the major imperialist powers have endorsed the PP's crackdown on the referendum.
Instead, the pseudo-left groups in their majority line up behind support for a unilateral declaration of independence, which is supported by just 42 percent of the Catalan population, and especially in support of the CUP. Yesterday, Benet Salellas of the CUP declared, "We have won the referendum and this Tuesday we have to apply the results."
"It would not be right to postpone the proclamation of the Catalan Republic," he added, in a message directed solely to the CUP's right-wing allies in PDeCAT, who have expressed their doubts about an immediate declaration of independence.
The umbrella Catalan National Assembly has called for a demonstration in front of the regional parliament. In a message to its followers under the title, "Let's stand next to our institutions. Hello Republic", the ANC wrote, "The people have spoken and said yes to independence now."
Podemos continues its role in disarming working-class opposition, despite rising worries that another civil war is on the horizon. Pablo Echenique, the party's secretary of organisation, said, "We regret that the PSOE is joining the block [with the PP] these days. … If after what happens tomorrow we must mourn the injured, [PSOE] leader Pedro Sanchez must take responsibility for being the leader of a [political] force that supports a government that does not hesitate to use force against the civilian population."
Echenique added, in a remark worthy of Pontius Pilate, "Hopefully tomorrow there is no unilateral declaration on independence and the PP does not apply 155 or 116."

Next Gen MINI Undergoing Winter Testing At The Moment
The upcoming all-new MINI 3-Door Hatch is being winter tested in its electric form.
It's hard to believe that BMW Group has been selling MINIs for over 20 years. The timeless design was modernised in the 2000s and the new MINI Hatch models have become iconic in their own right. Since that time, the BMW-MINI family has gone through 3 generations, with the last generational change coming in 2013.
This last model change brought a new range of engines, a larger chassis, a 5-door model as well as the MINI Electric model. Now, a new generation MINI Hatch is being developed in tandem with a new MINI Countryman. Winter testing is already underway for the MINI 3-Door Hatch, which means we'll probably get a global reveal of this new MINI in a few months time.
While the current MINI Electric seems like more of an afterthought than a dedicated battery electric vehicle, the upcoming range of MINI vehicles are being designed from the ground up to feature an electric motor as an option. The internal combustion engine will continue to play a role for new MINI models, though we suspect diesel variants will be restricted to certain markets or dropped altogether.
Here's the press release with more information.
The new MINI family is doing its warm-up laps – and that works best on ice and snow in the bitter cold of the Arctic Circle. The new MINI is currently undergoing its driving dynamics tests at the BMW Group's winter test centre in Arjeplog, Sweden. The new edition of the MINI is fully electric and is now completing a major chapter in its series development process with the winter testing in Sweden. The electric drivetrain, high-voltage battery, power electronics and charging technology of the prototypes are already demonstrating their high degree of maturity at extreme temperatures below freezing. Snow-covered roads and specially prepared areas on frozen lakes also serve as ideal test tracks on which the characteristics of the drive, steering and chassis can be very sensitively tested, refined and harmonised with each other.
MINI is launching its fifth generation with the MINI 3-door as the first model of the new MINI family once again. With its vehicle concept geared to fully electric driving fun from the outset, the new edition of the original is ideally suited to deliver inspiring hallmark MINI agility and the creative use of space, which guarantees plenty of room inside and a small footprint.
The new MINI 3-door is supplemented in the new MINI family by the successor to the current MINI Countryman. The new edition of the top seller in the premium compact segment will be offered with both an internal combustion engine and a fully electric drive. Still this year, MINI will present the concept study of a crossover model for the premium small car segment.
The new MINI 3-door consistently continues the concept of urban driving fun that has been successful for more than 60 years. This will be implemented even more puristically and sustainably in the future. This becomes particularly clear in the design of the classic body variant. Electrification offers designers the opportunity to think fundamentally differently and creates new starting points for the hallmark MINI combination of individual style, attention to detail, a sense of tradition and a passion for innovation. The design of the new MINI harks back to its unique history, uses the latest technology and creates a maximum of emotions combined with a minimal footprint.
The inspiring driving characteristics of the new MINI 3-door can be optimally refined at the winter test centre in Arjeplog. With every lap it completes on packed snow and ice, the test engineers can precisely tune the spontaneous power development of the electric motor, the control systems for optimising traction, the cornering behaviour, the suspension and damping characteristics as well as the character of the steering and braking system. The integrated application of all drive and chassis systems enables a mature degree of overall harmony, which will help the later production model to deliver a coherent and hallmark MINI balance of go-kart feeling and driving comfort.

THREESOME:GIRL DESTROYS FRIEND'S RELATIONSHIP AFTER EXPOSING X-RATED VIDEO OF HERSELF AND FRIEND IN THREESOME WITH STRANGER TO FRIEND'S BOYFRIEND
By admin	 Last updated Nov 17, 2016 232 0
A GLAMOROUS teen filmed herself having a threesome with a pal and a mystery man – before sending it to her friend's boyfriend in a bitter revenge plot.
Vindictive Abigail Stringfellow, 19, shared a hotel romp with her close friend and a stranger.
During the threesome, she made two videos and took a picture of her friend in her underwear.
But despite pleas to delete them by the friend, who was 17 at the time, Stringfellow allegedly refused to.
When the pair fell out in a row over a missing coat in April, furious Stringfellow sent the videos to the girl's shocked boyfriend – who had no idea about the liaison.
The friend, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was then bombarded with phone calls from her furious partner.
The revenge porn plot resulted in the victim allegedly being assaulted by her boyfriend when she turned up at his home.
Stringfellow, of Manchester, was arrested a month later for sending the images.
In a statement the girl said: "Abigail's actions have destroyed my life.
"She has humiliated me, embarrassed me and brought about the end of my relationship.
"I hate her for what she has done. I want her to know what her actions have led to."
Appearing at Manchester magistrates' court today, Stringfellow admitted disclosing private sexual photographs and films with intent to cause distress.
Matthew Wallace, defending, said: "She deeply regrets what she has done.
"This situation is a whole big mess. It was a rash act that she did. She knows the significant damage what she has done.
"She has not wished to prolong this matter, or to have those images shown to anyone else.
"This is an unusual revenge porn case, as it is usually a person in a relationship had intimate images taken and betrayed that relationship, but this case was the result of a breakdown of a friendship."
The girl's ex-boyfriend has also been charged with assault causing actual bodily harm and is currently awaiting trial.
Sentencing was adjourned.

Professor Ross Fitzgerald	» Blog Archive » There are some changes you can't believe in.
Garrett's most successful day in politics was his first. After his initial media conference as Labor's star recruit, held jointly with Mark Latham, some political insiders thought he had upstaged his then leader.
Ever since, it seems, Labor's political professionals have been putting him down. Some of the cynical machine men who run Labor scoff at the naive idealists who vote for the party. In Garrett, the machine has found the perfect punching bag.
Garrett's life before entering parliament is eloquent testimony to his passion for environmental protection. He more or less invented green music. At the height of his popularity as a performer he was a Nuclear Disarmament Party candidate for the Senate.
But Garrett also wanted to be more than an advocate. Talented, charismatic and already successful in a tough field, with a huge youth following, he could hardly have failed to think that he would win over voters and his new party colleagues the way he once charmed rock fans and musos. In politics, however, ideals and a way with words are not enough.
It's not enough to appeal to a devoted minority. To be a successful mainstream politician, not alienating the majority is even more important. Successful leaders are like musicians who can play jazz, classical and country and western, or like the conductors of large and fractious orchestras. What's more, politics is populated by ambitious operatives who specialise in sabotaging other people's careers for the sake of their own. This is the world in which Garrett works and he plainly is having trouble coming to terms with it.
As recently as 2007, when he was a shadow minister, Garrett told the ALP national conference: "I have long been opposed to uranium mining and I remain opposed to it. I am unapologetic about this. In fact, I am proud of it." A politician who makes this statement one year but approves his first new mine just a year or so later, owes the public an explanation.
Perhaps the alternative was to approve more mines and this was the least worst option he could manage; perhaps these mines are now so safe and their product so safeguarded he is confident that no harm can come of them; or perhaps this was a compromise of principle made necessary by some higher good.
Without some explanation, Garrett looks like another cynical politician who says what he needs to, to be elected, but does what he has to, to stay in power. If anyone has the intelligence and, more importantly, the soul to explain and justify the tension between high principle and low politics, it is Garrett.
As things stand, in a government that is better at calling for things to happen than making them change, Garrett has become the minister for raising expectations then dashing them. He promised to take Japan to the International Court of Justice over whaling. That never happened. He raised the prospect of banning plastic shopping bags. That never happened either.
Last week, he enthusiastically welcomed a proposal to ban tourists from climbing Ayers Rock-Uluru out of respect for Aboriginal sensibilities. This initiative lasted until the Prime Minister's next chance to front the media. A transgression on a lesser scale, perhaps, but equal perfidy is his decision to allow the construction of a new federal police college above the NSW mainland's last remaining penguin colony.
Count on it that if the Gunns pulp mill is financially viable, Garrett's environmental scruples won't be allowed to stand in its way. Labor is happy to be green when harvesting preferences but not when real jobs are at stake. That's fair enough. The problem for Garrett is that he has spent his entire adult life, pre-politics, saying that environmental preservation is more important than short-term economic gain.
During the 2007 campaign, when challenged over Labor's me-too policies, Garrett famously told broadcaster Steve Price that it would all change after the election. On the evidence so far, nothing seems to have changed as much as Garrett.

If you will remember, Nancy Mitford's first novel, Wigs on the Green was about Nazis, but 1935 Nazis when people were all "What-ho, this Hitler chap seems maybe not the best, but it's not as if he's committing genocide against his own countrymen and trying to take over the world."
"I see no problem here."
Rather soon after the war had been declared, it became obvious that nobody intended it to begin. The belligerent countries were behaving like children in a round game, picking up sides, and until the sides had been picked up the game could not start[...] America, of course, was too much of a baby for such a grown-up game, but she was just longing to see it played.
Pigeon Pie concerns a will-o-the-wisp socialite who's trying to stay entertained in the midst of this war outbreak. She volunteers at an emergency medical post, but they just do drills since nothing has really happened yet. The London Blitz wasn't until fall of 1940, so the publication of this was undoubtedly ill-timed since the whole war is portrayed primarily as a nuisance.
There're obvious Secret Spy Shenanigans happening around her, but as she's something of a female Bertie Wooster, only the reader notices them. Mysterious birds flying around the house? A furiously winking and gagged servant being carried out on a stretcher? And where has her uncle, the world's greatest singer, disappeared to and why is his wig found on the green when that was the title of the OTHER book.
I'm left in something of a confounded state by Mitford's writing, because I like it to the extent that it makes me want to hang out with her at a party. I'm planning on reading all her books, not because they're my absolute favorite, but because she provides a very unique view. You didn't often have women, especially upper class women, writing novels around World War II and giving a glimpse into her class's sentiments about that time.
The sentiments, again, seem to be that no one seemed very worried until late 1940.
"Of course I don't want to say I told you so, darling, but there's never been a pin to put between the Communists and the Nazis. The Communists torture you to death if you're not a worker, and the Nazis torture you to death if you're not a German. If you are they look at your nose first. Aristocrats are inclined to prefer Nazis while Jews prefer Bolshies."
Mitford's books are popular enough that they're always checked out of the library, and they keep being reprinted. But I'd be hard-pressed to find any of my friends having read them. It seems you need to be into Wodehouse-type literature, England in the 1930s & '40s, and find the quietly funny English novel of that period a rip-roaring good time to be a Mitford fan. I'm finding myself in an uncomfortable middle ground on all those points, but it's enough to have bought Love in a Cold Climate the last time I was drunk at a bookstore (i.e. last week). Let's see if you improve when you're not airily dismissing Nazis, Mitford.


With the passing of the Affordable Care Act commercial health plans are now required to participate in a relatively unknown type of audit known as a Risk Adjustment Data Validation (RADV) audit. Nearly all health plans will be required to perform these audits and because it is a newer process, many health plans may not fully understand what these audits consist of and require.
RADV audits require that a plan gather data and report on 200 plan members from each state. Once the CMS provides the list of sample members, health plans are responsible for gathering all of the patient data and medical records that will be needed to validate the risk score for each member. With Datafied's RADV services, we will identify which medical records will provide the best results for each member and we then go and collect this data. Once the critical data has been secured, Datafied's professional coders thoroughly examine each chart and produce codes to validate members' conditions.
We will work very closely with your health plan throughout the process, providing you with regular updates on our progress and findings. Before any information is submitted to CMS, we review our work for accuracy and then provide the results to your plan so that you are able to verify that all of the necessary information is being presented.
Datafied has successfully handled audit projects for over 26 years and we have extensive experience working with CMS. Let us handle your RADV project and the following dispute resolution process to ensure that all of the proper data is submitted in a timely manner, enabling your plan to successfully meet the RADV audit requirements.

The 90-day travel ban that was briefly in effect prevented entry to the United States by citizens of seven majority-Muslim nations: Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. The order aimed to suspend admission of all refugees for 120 days.
Late Thursday, a federal appeals court in San Francisco refused to reinstate the ban, which would have blocked a lower-court ruling that suspended the ban.

CHRISTMAS GI JOES By Larry Hodges

Christmas GI Joes
By Larry Hodges
"Enough denial," said the president of the United States in his most commanding southern drawl. "You're the only one with the needed worldwide delivery system. We need you to load up your little sleigh and save the world." Santa wondered how he'd gotten his personal cell phone number—probably the CIA.
Throughout the millennia Santa Claus had never had to make such a decision. And now the weight of the world, its very survival, rested on his red shoulders. He was used to shouldering huge bags of goodies, just not the ones they wanted him to deliver Christmas morning. But the world was relying on him, so what was he to do? There were no superheroes to come to the rescue, just him—a tired, chubby old man.
"I'll do it," said Santa. That was two months ago. Since then the occupation had only gotten worse. And now he was loading the sleigh for the annual trip. The launching room was kept warm, but he felt cold inside. The air smelled of hay and candy cane.
"It's a mistake," said Bernie in his deep voice, waving his arms in frustration. The short, green-clad, pointy-eared head elf wore a Greenpeace shirt and a peace necklace. He and Santa had originally laughed at the nonsensical idea. It was only when governments all over the world pleaded for help that they realized they were serious. Before the call from Washington he'd also received calls from Moscow, London, Paris, Berlin, Beijing, Tokyo, Ottawa, New Delhi, and many others. When the Russian president threatened to nuke the North Pole if he didn't deliver, Santa had slammed the phone down in rage, forgetting it was a cell phone. As if bombing a toy factory would solve anything.
"I know it's a mistake!" cried Santa, his face flushing red. Prancer snorted as he and several of the reindeer stared at him. "But adults and children everywhere are pleading for these to fight those bug-eyed invaders from Tau Ceti. They'd rather have these than a Hasbro Pie Face game, or Legos, or GI Joe action figures. I'm not sure I can blame them."
"What good are these against alien pulsars? We're supposed to spread joy, not suffering and death."
"There is no joy without survival," Santa said, continuing to load the sleigh.
"There is no survival without joy," said Bernie.
Santa's shoulders sagged. If humanity woke up Christmas morning armed with GI Joe action figures, instead of the guns they so badly needed so they could become GI Joes, he'd be the most cursed name in the world. He'd resisted, but when every major news media joined with the governments and the masses in begging him to come to their aid, what could he do?
The bidding process had been intense, but Kalashnikov of Russia and Glock of Austria had won out over USA's Smith & Wesson and Colt, and Italy's Beretta. And so the sleigh was loaded down with seven billion guns—AK-47s made by Kalashnikov for most adults, and Glock 17s for smaller women and kiddies under 15.
"Are we set to go?" asked Santa. At one point they had considered doing the deliveries earlier than usual, but by the time the guns were delivered to the North Pole and packaged for worldwide delivery it was already Christmas Eve. The reindeer were already harnessed and stomping their feet, anxious to get started.
Bernie sighed. "I think so. But I had to feed the reindeer more than I expected because the sleigh weighs so much. The 5.5 billion loaded AK-47s weigh about 8.5 pounds each, so 47 billion pounds. The two billion loaded Glocks weigh about two pounds each, so another four billion. That's 51 billion pounds. Add in the extra ammunition and accessories—holsters, range kits, lanyards, flash suppressors, camouflage kits, etc.—that should bring it to 70 billion pounds. But the sleigh weighs over 100 billion pounds. What's all the extra weight?" Santa stared at the loaded sleigh for a moment, knowing it would be far heavier when they returned, not to the North Pole toyshop, but to the morgue they'd built nearby as part of the project. A tear rolled slowly down his face as he finally whispered, "Body bags."

(At least that's what Gizmodo's Matt Buchanan says.)Accordingly, NVIDIA announced the release of their latest line of graphics cards this morning.
Accordingly, NVIDIA announced the release of their latest line of graphics cards this morning. The GTX 260 and GTX 280 mark the debut of the upcoming 200 series GPUs. The GTX 280 counts 240 processing cores and 1GB of RAM under its hood, while the 260 claims 192 cores and 896MB of memory. Either way, we're talking serious graphic and physics horsepower.
Where there's eyeball-popping graphics, there's always an eyeball-popping price tag, and these two chips don't disappoint: the 280 runs for $650 and the 260 at $399. Both require two PCI-E power connections to run and a huge power supply (perhaps 1,000W?) if you're even thinking about daisy-chaining them a la Scalable Link Interface, or SLI.
Good news, though: this series actually draws less idle power than the company's last generation of ultra high-performance cards.
What do you think, readers? 'Best performing GPU on the planet,' or a lotta horse for too much cash? Tell us in TalkBack.


U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to pressure China's president when they meet next month in Beijing to do more to rein in North Korea out of a belief that Xi Jinping's consolidation of power should give him more authority to do so.
Xi is immersed in a Communist Party Congress expected to culminate in him consolidating his control and potentially retaining power beyond 2022, when the next congress takes place.
Trump believes that Xi should have even more leverage to work on the North Korea problem.
Trump wants to gain some serious cooperation from China to persuade Pyongyang to either change its mind or help deprive it of so much resources that it has no choice but to alter its behavior, the official said.
Trump has heaped praise on Xi in recent weeks in hopes of gaining Chinese cooperation and has held back from major punitive trade measures.
In an interview with Fox Business Network's Maria Bartiromo, Trump said he wants to "keep things very, very low key" with Xi until the Chinese leader emerges from the party congress.
"I believe he's got the power to do something very significant with respect to North Korea. We'll see what happens. Now with that being said, we're prepared for anything. We are so prepared, like you wouldn't believe," Trump said in the interview, to air on Sunday.
Trump has traded bitter insults with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, using his speech at the United Nations General Assembly last month to dismiss Kim as a "rocket man" on a suicide mission for his repeated nuclear tests and ballistic missile launches. He said if threatened, the United States would "totally destroy" North Korea.
Kim in recent weeks said the United States would face an "unimaginable strike" from North Korea if provoked.
CIA chief Mike Pompeo said on Thursday that North Korea could be only "months" away from gaining the ability to hit the United States with nuclear weapons.


2018, what can I say, it was not quite what I expected but it is what I needed.
It was the year I launched my new website, my new brand, and started taking myself serious. The year I wanted to dedicate to service with my photography. I was blessed with moments of amazing connections and strong women going through so many changes. Women who bravely stepped in front of my lens and came away changed by the experience of my sessions. I started working with Business Branding and expanded into Video production. It was such a full year but it was also the year I had to say no to alot of things and take so much more time for myself to rest more, have more quiet time, and try to get beyond feeling guilty for it all. The truth is this year was a big year for me, celebrating my mid century mark, my first big family trip to Alaska, and fulfilling a dream to attend a Conference by Brooke Shaden. So for 2019, I hope to connect with more amazing people and create some wonderful memories and images while still balancing life. Cheers 2019, I am ready.

About 2711P-T15C15B1
The Allen-Bradley 2711P-T15C15B1 terminal is part of the PanelView Plus series of terminals that are specially designed for industrial use and engineered for strength and longevity.

The 2711P-T15C15B1 offers a high level of operation without compromising on the sturdiness of the construction. The screen size of the display unit is 15 inches and the display has color graphics with a 640 x 480 resolution and 18-bit graphics that offer great utility for the users. The display units in this series are considered to be excellent for Ethernet systems connected via the integrated communication ports.

Is a Viagra Prescription Safe?
Viagra is a great drug that can bring relief to those that have erectile dysfunction. However, just like any drug, there are some people that should not take Viagra.
While Viagra is safe for most men to take, there are a few a categories of men that should stay away from a Viagra prescription. This is why it is important to disclose a complete medical history to the doctor before taking a Viagra prescription.
Men that have had strokes or heart attacks should not get a Viagra prescription. There have been some instances of heart and stroke being a serious side effect of Viagra usage. With this in mind it is not recommended that men that have already suffer through things ailments take Viagra because they are prone to a recurrence.
Men that have a history of genetic related vision diseases also should not take Viagra. There are hereditary degenerative retinal disorders that do not react well when Viagra is introduced into the body.
Hypotension, low blood pressure is also a condition that is not favorable for a Viagra prescription. Viagra should not be taken if a doctor has restricted sexual activity because of heart issues.
Some of regular side effects of taking a Viagra prescription include dizziness, sneezing, flushing, prolonged erections, photophobia and palpitations of the heart. Most of these side effects will go away with time and the majority of people that get a Viagra prescription do not stop taking it because of the mild side effects.
Before getting a Viagra prescription one must be needed. Some people have taken to using Viagra simply because they believe it might enhance their sexual experience. This has not been proven in any studies and recreational usage of a drug that can be dangerous is not wise. A Viagra prescription should only be taken for the disorders it was designed to treat.


Abstract: Climate is changing and, as a consequence, some areas that are climatically suitable for date palm ('Phoenix dactylifera' L.) cultivation at the present time will become unsuitable in the future. In contrast, some areas that are unsuitable under the current climate will become suitable in the future. Consequently, countries that are dependent on date fruit export will experience economic decline, while other countries' economies could improve. Knowledge of the likely potential distribution of this economically important crop under current and future climate scenarios will be useful in planning better strategies to manage such issues. This study used CLIMEX to estimate potential date palm distribution under current and future climate models by using one emission scenario (A2) with two different global climate models (GCMs), CSIRO-Mk3.0 (CS) and MIROC-H (MR). The results indicate that in North Africa, many areas with a suitable climate for this species are projected to become climatically unsuitable by 2100. In North and South America, locations such as south-eastern Bolivia and northern Venezuela will become climatically more suitable. By 2070, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and western Iran are projected to have a reduction in climate suitability. The results indicate that cold and dry stresses will play an important role in date palm distribution in the future. These results can inform strategic planning by government and agricultural organizations by identifying new areas in which to cultivate this economically important crop in the future and those areas that will need greater attention due to becoming marginal regions for continued date palm cultivation.


Who has more cash than the bank?
Starbucks stored cash is more than the deposits at many US financial institutions, such as California Republic Bank with its $1.01 billion in accounts. The company also has more consumer cash than the Green Dot Corporation, one of the major prepaid cards providers with its $560 million on deposit.


They're less punchable, but less memorable too. The aus-pap One Direction fill-ins got their break writing lightweight post-punk for kids too young to remember Sum 41. This brave new venture sees them exploring equally lightweight 1975isms. The hook isn't bad, and the guitars sound more convincing than the flimsy noodling of 'She Looks So Perfect'. They've grown their hair out and listened to LANY's self-titled once or twice, but that is the limit of their creative process.
This is why people hate trap music. This is making me want to hate trap music. When a style comes along that is this easily replicated and commercially viable it will be done to death (see also dubstep, D&B) – but this is a fate far worse than death. And yeah – she's that gobby pre-teen who mouthed off on Dr. Phil.
Cyclical, mesmerising ambient drone. With little more than a distant echo of a beat and spindly guitar, the LA based musician paints an honest portrait of distant longing. Exquisite, haunted sensuality.
Jack Johnson via latter-day, lover-man Skrillex stylings. A tropical acoustic riff is enough to draw in brash electronics, R&B beat and washes of synthesiser. You can thank production wunderkind Mura Masa for that, but Michl has a heady flavour all his own.
Classic tune. Perfunctory cover. For an album suggesting a "reimagining", the curators of this standards LP should try and spice it up – Gaga for Elton fit hand in glove, but that just isn't very exciting.

Φ-lab @Sweden on Edge Learning in Space
The European Space Agency (ESA) and AI Sweden have established a space innovation lab, Φ-lab @Sweden. Its mission is to accelerate the use of AI in new applications for Earth observation by developing solutions in the area of Edge Learning in space.
Φ-lab(@)Sweden gathers industry, public sector, entrepreneurs, investors, and researchers to strengthen the European innovation activities for space applications and the space industry sector in Earth observation and AI. The lab complements other Swedish resources such as the Swedish Space Data Lab, established from collaboration between the Swedish National Space Agency, Luleå University of Technology, RISE, and AI Sweden.
AI Sweden and Φ-lab @Sweden
In the near future, many space-related applications will need technology that enables AI on board. Currently, Φ-lab @Sweden is working with innovative ways to train AI models in space and has access to hardware from several of AI Sweden's partners. The lab has a development version of hardware that imitates the setup in a satellite constellation setting. Access to real hardware reduces the gap between experiments in the lab and reality in space. When researchers and innovators can experiment with different hardware, frameworks, and tools it accelerates the process from idea to impact.
Using AI in space means many challenging tasks can be completed faster, more accurately, and at a greater scale than traditional means. Possible use cases for AI and satellite data include identifying environmental incidents such as flooding, algal blooms, and fires, or human activities such as illegal fishing, deforestation, pollution, and more.
Why edge learning in space?
Today, AI models are trained by transferring as much data as possible from sensors to a central storage and compute location. In general, the more data, the better the quality of the resulting model. However, as the number of satellites increases, the available bandwidth to transfer data will become less and less. Thus, data transfer costs are expected to rise, it will take longer to transfer enough data to Earth to train models, and the models will be less accurate if less data is transferred.
Edge learning (also known as decentralized learning, federated learning, or swarm learning) is a technology that has the potential to revolutionize the development of AI for space applications by solving these challenges. This would save both money and resources since there is no need to send large amounts of data to the Earth.
What is decentralized learning? - An introduction to Edge Learning Lab
What does decentralized learning mean for AI? Here's how AI Sweden uses decentralized learning in a nutshell.
Get a quick overview of decentralized AI
Φ-lab @Sweden Kickoff - Machine Learning Onboard Spacecraft
At the kickoff event, collaborators from AI Sweden, European Space Agency (ESA) and the Swedish National Space Agency (Rymdstyrelsen) showcased the planned research and explain the envisioned collaboration opportunities. A special keynote was given by our invited speaker, Dr. Rochelle Schneider, ESA.
Φ-lab @Sweden Kickoff
Φ-lab @Sweden will collect many types of data which relate to different types of use cases, as well as a range of hardware and frameworks. These will provide a basis to conduct applied research.
Models are generally meant to be mediators of reality. Constellations of satellites will use edge learning to train AI to explore autonomy and decision-making onboard for Earth Observation. Researchers in Φ-lab @Sweden are using simulations to model onboard constraints, adding reality during edge learning.
Φ-lab @Sweden can be joined by all AI Sweden's partners who have a use case or those partners who want to contribute to ongoing projects. Get in touch with Vinutha Magal Shreenath if you want to learn more about the Φ-lab @Sweden and how you could get involved.

"Love Dodgeville" is a day set aside where community members, churches, and organizations come together to "love" our town by doing a variety of community service projects. This will take place on Sunday, May 5, starting at 1:00 p.m. This is the fourth year for this event and the first year HVCC will be participating…and it is growing by leaps and bounds! There are several service projects to choose from. Please stop by the table in the lobby on Sunday to check out all the areas you can help out with and sign up for a volunteer slot that interests you!


Many computer-generated images claim to be in 3D, but despite the illusion of depth given by clever perspective (especially when the image is moving) they are still flat. They are not truly three- dimensional.
Real 3D images are much more exciting to look at! This is because they have an extra dimension, depth. The scene is no longer flat but extends away into the distance, as in real life. People viewing a true 3D image often say: "It's just like being there!" If you have ever seen a 3D film at an IMAX cinema you will probably have said the same thing!
Stereoscopic (stereo for short) images are not confined to moving subjects, of course. Most are in the form of photographic prints or slides. These are just as rewarding to view.
How does 3D photography work?
It works by imitating what we see with our eyes. When we look at a scene, the left and right eyes see slightly different images, because they are separated laterally by about 65mm. The brain combines these two images and creates a 3D representation of the original scene in the mind.
Anyone can make a stereo picture with an ordinary camera. You simply take two pictures from two viewpoints, ideally about 65mm apart horizontally. The camera must be moved sideways, parallel to itself, and not twisted in any way. Also, nothing in the scene must move between the two exposures or there will be a discrepancy in part of the final 3D image.
If you mount the two images side-by-side and view them in such a way that the left eye sees only the left image and the right eye only the right image then the brain does the rest and you will observe a 3D reconstruction of the original subject.
Here is an example of a stereo image pair.
Some people can free-view such images (the same technique used for viewing the popular Magic Eye pictures) but it takes practice. You might find it easier to see the 3D effect by placing a strip of card (12 inches or more in length) vertically between the left and right images and viewing from above with one eye on each side of the card, as illustrated below.

THE BEATLES: GET BACK DIRECTED BY PETER JACKSON DEBUTS ON DISNEY+
Over Six Hours of Never-Before-Seen Restored Footage, Including The Beatles' Last Live Performance
to Roll Out on Disney+
Over Three Days, November 25, 26 and 27, 2021

The Walt Disney Studios, Apple Corps Ltd. and WingNut Films Productions Ltd. announced today that Disney+ will bring "The Beatles: Get Back," a Disney+ Original documentary series directed by Peter Jackson, to fans and music lovers worldwide.
Because of the wealth of tremendous footage Peter Jackson has reviewed, which he has spent the past three years restoring and editing, "The Beatles: Get Back" will be presented as three separate episodes. Each episode is approximately two hours in length, rolling out over three days, November 25, 26 and 27, 2021, exclusively on Disney+.
Bob Iger, The Walt Disney Company
"As a huge Beatles fan myself, I am absolutely thrilled that Disney+ will be the home for this extraordinary documentary series by the legendary filmmaker Peter Jackson," said Bob Iger, Executive Chairman and Chairman of the Board, The Walt Disney Company. "This phenomenal collection of never-before-seen footage offers an unprecedented look at the close camaraderie, genius songwriting, and indelible impact of one of the most iconic and culturally influential bands of all time, and we can't wait to share 'The Beatles: Get Back' with fans around the world."
Peter Jackson, WingNut Films Productions Ltd.
Peter Jackson commented, "In many respects, Michael Lindsay-Hogg's remarkable footage captured multiple storylines. The story of friends and of individuals. It is the story of human frailties and of a divine partnership. It is a detailed account of the creative process, with the crafting of iconic songs under pressure, set amid the social climate of early 1969. But it's not nostalgia – it's raw, honest, and human. Over six hours, you'll get to know The Beatles with an intimacy that you never thought possible."
He added, "I'm very grateful to The Beatles, Apple Corps and Disney for allowing me to present this story in exactly the way it should be told. I've been immersed in this project for nearly three years, and I'm very excited that audiences around the world will finally be able to see it."

Directed by three-time Oscar®-winning filmmaker Peter Jackson ("The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, "They Shall Not Grow Old"), "The Beatles: Get Back" takes audiences back in time to the band's intimate recording sessions during a pivotal moment in music history.
The documentary showcases the warmth, camaraderie and creative genius that defined the legacy of the iconic foursome, compiled from over 60 hours of unseen footage shot in January 1969 (by Michael Lindsay-Hogg) and more than 150 hours of unheard audio, all of which has been brilliantly restored.
Jackson is the only person in 50 years to have been given access to these private film archives.
"The Beatles: Get Back" is the story of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr as they plan their first live show in over two years, capturing the writing and rehearsing of 14 new songs, originally intended for release on an accompanying live album.
