Here is your Leo Horoscope for August 2018. Every month, you will find at WeMystic the astrological forecasts for your zodiac sign.
The partial eclipse of the Sun in Leo, which will take place on August 11th, will follow in the footprints of the July 13th eclipse in the XII House of the lion, only this time it is not related to reviewing the past, but rather about gaining a clearer perspective on who you are and what you want to achieve.
This purpose will be reinforced by the presence of three planets in retrograde in the X House of Leo (Mars, Pluto and Saturn), the entrance of the Sun into the II House (08/23) and Vesta in its direct phase in the V House (starting on August 1st). These concern connecting with your true inner talents and exploring options that are close to your professional vocation.
On the romantic level, the entrance of Lilith into the VII House of Leo (08/06) can cause heated debates as a couple. Fortunately, Venus will be in the III House of the lion (08/06), signaling that whatever truths that finally come to light are crucial to achieving true understanding.
The singles of the sign will feel more like spending time with themselves than exploring the possibilities of romance. Sometimes, loneliness is a necessary companion.
The lucky streak will continue financially despite tension in the workplace. If you want to apply for a loan or credit, do it (preferably) after August 23rd, when the Sun enters the II House of Leo and Mercury will be directly in the sign of the lion (after 08/19).
Take advantage of the influence of Mercury in retrograde in Leo and the dwarf planet Ceres in the II House during the first half of August to review the details of any upcoming transactions and to gather any documents relevant to the matter.
These aspects (Ceres in the II House and Mercury in retrograde in Leo) will grant you a meticulousness when it comes to commercial transactions, unscheduled purchases or if you review a large investment.
The Full Moon of August 26th will affect the VIII House of Leo, where Neptune is in its phase of apparent retrograde. What that means is that whatever hindered financial partnerships with relatives or your partner will come to an end.
Since this lunar event will occur under the influence of Pisces, the available energy will be guided towards reconciling the parties and not obliging them. And with Venus entering the III House of Leo on 06/08, you will have everything in your favor to able to leave all parties feeling satisfied with what has been achieved.
In the professional field, Pluto and Saturn will continue in retrograde in the VI House of Leo. The turbulent influence of Mars (in apparent retrograde) will join them starting on August 12th.
Retrograde Mars in the VI House of Leo indicates repressed anger that affects relationships at work and generates frustration for followers of the sign. Since Mercury will also be in retrograde in Leo until 08/|8, it is a good idea for you to keep random comments to yourself.
Pluto and Saturn in retrograde will propel you to seek true power and wisdom from within, not for appearances or because it is convenient, but to reaffirm you as an individual, an intention that is aligned with the partial Eclipse of Sun in Leo, which will take place on the 11th of August.
August is a favorable season for you to reflect on the true causes of what makes you uncomfortable and stop being surface-level (hiding behind antipathy towards your companions or boredom towards a certain task or workplace).
The asteroid Vesta will begin its direct phase in the V House of Leo on 08/01, which, coupled with the retrogradation of Uranus in the X House (beginning on 08/07), will give you the inspiration you need to respond to these questions and elect a new career path (if you want one).
For the students of Leo, the presence of Chiron in retrograde in the IX House of the sign, indicates moments of recollection and rest, with the need to disconnect from your hectic social life and obligations. It is possible that some coworkers will not understand your tendency to isolation, but you will find support and understanding in others.
During the first half of August (until the 18th), Mercury will be in retrograde in the sign of the lion, which indicates a susceptibility to allergies and viral diseases which can affect the respiratory tract and throat.
This transit (Mercury in retrograde in Leo) is also a reminder to keep medical care up to date for the followers of Leo that suffer from chronic coronary diseases or diseases related to the circulatory system.
Mars, warrior planet, will enter the VI House of Leo (08/12) while continuing its apparent phase of retrograde. It will coincide with Pluto and Saturn, which are both in retrograde, in this location.
Pluto, Saturn and Mars in retrograde in the VI House of Leo represent changes that you consider to be necessary in order to strengthen yourself physically (and improve your mood), but that you have not decided to start yet.
The presence of Pluto and Saturn in retrograde suggests that you should look for information from people experienced in the subject that you deal with (medical professionals in nutrition or psychology), and that you should not approach the process on your own under the belief that "you already know how to do it and it does not matter anymore" (Mars in retrograde).
Perhaps you followed a diet or did some exercises that made you comfortable on some previous occasion, but you must keep in mind that the circumstances (and you) have changed.
In this sense, the advice of a health professional should be your guide regarding what kind of nutrients, vitamin supplements or training you need to achieve your goals, according to your age and rhythm of daily life.
Important: when setting goals or objectives linked to lifestyle changes, it is a good idea to opt for those that are realistic, especially in terms of how much time it takes to get results (do not expect to lose the weight from a year or your whole life in just a week).
Purifying diets have a positive outlook for this period of the year, but please remember that it is preferable to complete this type of change with the help of professionals.


If there is one thing that most celebrities have in common, it's that they have a beautiful smile. Celebrities tend to have evenly spaced, straight teeth that are white (but not too white) and without any gaps or visible gum line showing. Of course, as we all know most actors and actresses weren't born with this Hollywood Smile. Like the rest of their appearance, it's something that is crafted over time usually using cosmetic dentistry.
As more people become exposed to Hollywood smiles on television and in social media, more people are starting to request a whitening treatment and more from their cosmetic dentist. These days cosmetic dentistry is more affordable than ever and is a commonly accepted procedure.
Part of the reason so many people want a Hollywood smile is that they are starting to realise just how important an attractive smile is in everyday life and that its positive effects extend far beyond the big screen.
Research shows that people who smile more often are more likely to get promoted at work and will earn more than their counterparts. People who smile more are also asked on more romantic dates and are perceived as being more popular and successful. Researchers have also been able to use the frequency of sincerity of a person's smile as a reliable predictor of everything from their average lifespan to how happy their marriages will be.
A frequent smile is a signifier of happiness, but this doesn't mean that those that don't smile aren't happy – just that they can't show it. In fact, many Australians do smile but keep their mouths closed or cover their mouth with their hand because they are subconscious of how their smile looks.
Unlike cosmetic modifications like makeup, hair extensions and hitting the gym, an attractive smile suits everyone, is permanent and will not fade. It is a dramatic yet subtle way that anyone can improve their appearance. At Bay Street Dental, we can say this with real confidence, as we have created dozens of Hollywood smiles for clients all over Port Melbourne and Victoria.
So if you think that a Hollywood Smile could benefit you, why not take the first step and make an appointment with us to discuss your options?
Are you brushing and flossing correctly? Technique makes all the difference.


De La Hoya-Pacquiao Fight A Mere Money Circus ?
That's according to Marco Antonio Barrera, twice vanquished foe of Manny Pacquiao. He considers the fight a disgrace and as a mere gimmick to line the pockets of both fighters to the tune of at least P100 million (to be divided 60/40 in De La Hoya's favor). It's one of the richest boxing purses in history.
What are they going to do? Stuff Manny with tamales and beans, and reduce Oscar in the steam bath to bring them together? It's ridiculous. It's absurd. It's a fraud to the public. The only reason why the fight was made was money.
Sulaiman seems to have forgotten that Pacquiao isn't Mexican and tamales and beans will likely just give him gas. But you get the picture.
Not surprisingly, Manny is coming in as the clear underdog, as the size differential is dramatic. Aside from heft (up to 20 lbs. more on fight night), ODLH has significantly longer reach. Manny may have an edge, age-wise, but that advantage is easily offset by Oscar's wiliness and years of experience. It seems obvious that Pacman will be pummeled if he goes toe-to-toe against the Golden Boy. Which is what Oscar wants to happen.
De La Hoya will want to bring the fight to Manny and force him to trade punches. A close-in brawl will be to his advantage and he won't allow Pacquiao to dance out of danger. He'd also want to put Manny away early, as a marathon fight would favor the younger man. In fact, he predicts that he can put Manny away in five. Pacman will rely on his speed and agility in dealing body blows to De La Hoya, before giving him a punch or two to the head and exploding out of the clinch. He's got to stay away from Oscar's deadly jabs. And his wicked left hook.
But like I said before, in the end, it will come down to heart, which both have plenty of. Manny will be fighting the biggest bout of his life, a "career-changing event", as they say. Oscar will die fighting to protect the Golden Boy legend.
My fearless forecast: Manny by knockout in the later rounds (between rounds 9 to 12). Nothing scientific about it. Just rooting for the Pinoy underdog.
One noticeable thing though is that Manny appears more relaxed and confident. He's smiling like the cat which swallowed the canary. Oscar seems tense and tight. This could bear on their psychological condition on the big night, with the more loose, adaptable and spontaneous fighter at an advantage.
I guess you are not putting money down on this fight.
So here it is: Boxing and betting insiders believe the opening Las Vegas line on the fight would favor De La Hoya at odds of a bit less than 2-1.
On the betting board, De La Hoya would probably be listed at about minus 185 (risk $1.85 to win $1), with the price on Pacquiao about plus 165 (risk $1 to net $1.65).
I didn't put money down in the fight simply because nobody in the place where I was (Friday's at the Fort) myself included, wanted to bet against Pacquiao. But I called it pretty close and predicted a late round (9-12) knockout for Manny. De La Hoya threw in the towel before the start of the 9th round for a TKO. It was happy bedlam all around when that happened.
Pingback: Manuel L. Quezon III: The Daily Dose » Today's Dose » The right fight at the wrong time?
Honestly, I just read this. And the money angle of course was the whole point of the match, as it has been since Roman times, and as I was explaining to everyone who was willing to listen — offline.
Folks in Baguio kept insisting that it would be for money earned from betting, especially if the fight was rigged. I kept telling them that betting was small change. It has been estimated that Pacquiao's earnings from just Pay Per View in the last fight amounted to US $20M. As in — WOW!!!
We wanted a show and though we were ecstatic about a Pacquiao victory we didn't really get a good performance from ODLH, did we? Sluggish, emasculated even. Nothing like he used to be. But, for $60M I would take a few punches from Manny and call it a day — why not?
And since Pacquiao kept aiming for his pretty, pretty face, I guess Round 8 was long enough to keep everybody happy.
As for the Filipinos, we really didn't care about the show itself as much as the result. Although I have to say, Pacquiao moved well, looked good and he just really deserved a better opponent.

Easter is coming up soon! I finally was on top of things this year and go Aria's basket all shopped for and put together way before Easter.
This year I wanted to focus playtime, how to make it more magical, how to keep it going while we travel, and how to bottle up that imagination for days to come. That is what I wanted to focus on for this years basket. Now we don't do candy because she gets candy from all the Easter egg hunts.
They have premade baskets at Target, Walmart, Costco, Sams Club, I have even seen them at the dollar store if you really are on a tight budget.
Now for the baskets themselves we got ours at Hobby Lobby, but haven't shopped there in a while. Target has some really adorable baskets for under $15 as well. My most favorite place to shop for them has to be the Target Dollar Spot.
Aria loves to paint and create. We right now have acrylic paints, but they are so messy! We found these really amazing painbrush pens from Target that promote proper writing grip. Not to mention they are WASHABLE.
So this was the first item I wanted for her basket. It will help her creativity soar!
I live by these books, they are beyond amazing inventions for you Childs imagination. Not only is it the story of their favorite movie, it comes with characters to act out the story on a playmat. Everything comes inside this book for often under $10. We have the Princess book, the Pony Movie book and for Easter she will be getting the Coco book. Amazon has these books, Costco, and TJMaxx. That is where I have seen them so if you have seen them elsewhere please comment below.
This stuff is magically and better than playdoh. Magical kinetic sand meets the best of play doh. The quantum pods are super hard to find here in Utah. My sister will pick some up for me in California, and you can always order the bags. But the pods are the best. This stuff is magic and therapeutic.
These are the best toys for travel. All you need is water to make these work. They are the greatest invention for quiet time. We will be using these for our trip to Disney this year. The best place to get these is Amazon because they always have them.
Target has them but they sell out so quickly and they are not in the toys, they are over in the paints section.
Aria is obsessed with Hatchimals. She loves playing with them in her castles or playhouse. They often have dance parties to the song "This songs gonna get stuck inside your heeeaadd". They have so many cute Easter packs. I have found them the cheapest at Micheal's in the toy section on clearance.
You know we give books to Aria for every occasion. Every occasion I can, I will give Aria a book or two. My favorite place to shop for kids books is Seagull. Do not let the fact its a religious store scare you away. Go to the back and raid the cute book tables. They are under $5 a book and they are adorable!
Also Amazon is another amazing place for books.

Q: Disabling the viewstate both on page and control does not have effect I have disabled the viewstate for controls (labels, buttons etc) and the page for test purposes.
Now when I change the text of a label on the client side and intercept the button's click event, the label still shows the text that the server sent previously.
So what is going on? I need to be able to change data on the client and have it available to the server.
How is this done?

A: Labels are rendered as spans on the client side; as such, you won't be able to capture the changes on the server side since they are not input elements.
ASP.NET gives you the illusion of being able to change the label's text programmatically, simply because it uses the ViewState to store/retrieve this information on every postback. By disabling it, you are giving up on using this "feature".

A: What you need to do is add a hidden input.
On your form add:
<asp:HiddenField runat="server" id="hiddenHolder" />

Then in the client on click event when you change the text of the label, also change the value of the hiddenHolder.
In your code behind you can then get the value with:
string LabelText = hiddenHolder.Value;

In this way the change you made on the client is available to the server

Kumare
Kumare (2012)
Vikram Gandhi
Purva Bedi
Kristin Calgaro
Rated NR
| Roger Ebert
August 8, 2012 |
A documentary featuring Vikram Gandhi, Purva Bedi and Kristin Calgaro.
Growing up in New Jersey, Vikram Gandhi was a typical American kid who resented the way his family tried to enforce Hindu beliefs and practices. He found it ironic that Americans began to popularize gurus and yoga just at the time he was growing away from such things. On a trip to India, he says, he found that "real" gurus were no more real than the American frauds who copied them.
That led him into the deliberate deception that he filmed in "Kumare." He grew a long beard and a pony-tail, exchanged his shoes for sandals, switched his slacks and suits to flowing orange robes, and started carrying an ornate walking stick. Then he moved to Arizona, hired an expert to teach him yoga and a PR woman to promote him as a guru, and began to attract followers in meetings at shopping malls, community centers and around the swimming pools of his affluent clients. His accent was modeled on the way his grandmother spoke English. His teachings were deliberate gibberish: talk of inner blue lights, "finding the guru within," and chants of fabricated mantras.
At this point in the film, it takes an odd turn. Kumare's followers believe him without question. They share their deepest secrets with him and visibly appear to benefit from him. These people are not dummies. Mostly middle-aged, they take their health seriously, are somewhat skilled at yoga and follow schedules of meditation. "Kumare" seems to establish that a guru can be a complete fraud and nevertheless do a certain amount of good, because what matters is not the sincerity of the guru but that of his followers.
Gandhi seems typecast for the role of Kumare. Tall, thin, bending forward to listen better, he speaks warmly and encouragingly, and makes deep eye contact. He smiles easily. He never pushes too far. He seems as real as any guru and more real than some. His teaching of yoga seems within the ability of his followers to accomplish. He narrates the documentary (in an ordinary American voice), introduces us to followers he's grown close to, and begins to believe he may have started something that was out of his control.
He tells his followers the time has come for him to leave them. Now they are on their own. He returns to New Jersey, cuts his hair, shaves his beard, and begins to practice a speech in the mirror: "I am not who you think I am." Whether he ever says this, and how the movie ends, I will leave for you to discover.
It seems to me that "Kumare" reflects a truth that is often expressed in three words: "Act as if." If you can act as if something is true, in a sense that makes it true. It doesn't matter if a teacher's spiritual teachings have any basis. It doesn't matter if the supernatural even exists (Gandhi believes it does not). His followers benefit by acting "as if."
When I first heard this film described, I assumed it would be a satirical, snarky comedy like Sacha Baron Cohen's "Borat." Not so. Gandhi seems to be essentially a good man, and he learns things of value to himself in his experiment. In a sense, the deception he practices on his followers is contemptible, but in another sense, they're all in it together. The film's implication seems to be: It doesn't matter if a religion's teachings are true. What matters is if you think they are.

Quickteller Paypoint Rewards Active Agents Through Double Up Promo
To reward active agents, Quickteller Paypoint, the agency banking service of Interswitch Financial Inclusion Services (IFIS), has announced the Quickteller Paypoint Double Up promo that will run from February 1 to March 31, 2022.
All active agents, including those who perform a minimum of one transaction on a monthly basis, are eligible for the mouthwatering prizes that are up for grabs. Each agent whose transaction volume meets the benchmark will receive N1,000 airtime and also stand a chance to win other prizes through a raffle draw.
Active agents stand a chance to win prizes such as LED TVs/ generator sets, standing fans, smartphones, and other cash prizes. In order to emerge as one of the winners in the raffle draw, agents are advised to carry out more transactions.
The promo serves as a recognition of the work carried out by these agents who support the goal of Quickteller Paypoint to drive financial inclusion across Nigeria. This promo will be conducted nationwide, and all active agents are encouraged to boost their transaction limits to participate in the monthly raffle draw.
In line with regulatory standards and to ensure fairness and transparency in the selection of winners, the Quickteller Paypoint Double Up promo draws will be monitored and observed by the National Lottery Regulatory Commission (NLRC), Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) and Lagos State Lottery Board (LSLB).
Speaking on the promo, the Group Chief Marketing and Communications Officer, Interswitch Group, Cherry Eromosele, said the promo is an avenue to bring to light the excellent work that Quickteller agents put in daily, rewarding them for their efforts.
"Data from the Nigeria Inter-Bank Settlement System Plc (NIBSS) shows that mobile transactions and Point of Sales (POS) services have grown exponentially post 2019, meaning that more Nigerians are tapping into the value of agency banking services. These services are what Quickteller Paypoint, and its agents wish to bring to this segment of the population.
"The need to improve the level of financial inclusion in Nigeria remains at the core of the offerings provided by Quickteller Paypoint, and these agents represents touchpoints for the unbanked population across the country. For this reason, we want to say 'thank you' to them through the Quickteller Paypoint Double Up promo."

2004 NHL Entry Draft: 5 Forgotten Picks
August 5, 2022 August 13, 2021 by Declan Schroeder
The 2004 NHL Entry Draft in Raleigh is notable for being the final draft before the 2004-05 NHL lockout that quashed the entire season. Despite being 15 years ago, there are still players from the draft excelling in the NHL — Alexander Ovechkin and Evgeni Malkin, picks one and two, respectively — among them.

Evgeni Malkin, Pittsburgh Penguins (Amy Irvin / The Hockey Writers)
While more than a dozen players who were chosen in the draft are still currently active NHLers a decade and a half later, and countless others had good careers and are now retired, the following five do not belong in either category. Whether they found fleeting big-league success or no success at all, here are a handful of players from the draft you likely haven't thought about in years.
Boris Valabik: Atlanta Thrashers, 10th Overall
Boris Valabik was just another terrible pick for a franchise that was utterly incompetent at the draft table.
Chosen after a single unremarkable season with the OHL's Kitchener Rangers, the left-handed Slovakian defenceman didn't make his Thrashers debut until 2007-08, when he played seven games with no points and 42 penalty minutes.
Boris Valabik was tall, but that's about all. He had a wholly underwhelming 80-game NHL career. (Credit: Ross Dettman/Chicago Wolves)
At six-foot-seven and 245 pounds, Valabik had size for sure, but that's just about all he had. He split the 2008-09 and 2009-10 seasons between the AHL's Chicago Wolves and the Thrashers, playing 73 NHL games while tallying seven assists, spending 168 minutes in the sin bin, and posting poor possession metrics.
"He resembled a massive pylon that was manoeuvred around by speedy Ferraris on the track," wrote THW's own Jeremy Wiebe back in 2014.

In Feb. 2011, the Thrashers traded Valabik to the Boston Bruins along with Rich Peverley in exchange for Blake Wheeler and Mark Stuart, a rare good move for a franchise that made the playoffs just once in its mostly futile 12-season existence.

Valabik never played for the Bruins, nor the Pittsburgh Penguins, with whom he signed a one-year contract in 2011-12.
After that, he had stints with four European teams in four different leagues interspersed with a brief stint with the Portland Pirates. He hasn't played since 2016-17.
AJ Thelen: Minnesota Wild, 12th Overall
AJ Thelen is the highest pick in the draft to never suit up for an NHL game.
The Wild drafted the Minnesotan d-man after his promising rookie season with the Michigan State University Spartans, where he recorded 29 points in 43 games.
After a disappointing sophomore season, Michigan State dismissed him from their hockey program, with head coach Rick Comley stating he "did not meet the expectations for a student-athlete in the ice hockey program at MSU." Thelen, who Comley had called out for his fitness and effort levels, claimed the coach had "double standards for certain players" but later admitted that underage drinking was the reason for his ouster."

— MN Sports Fails (@mnsportsfails) January 11, 2016
Thelen played in the WHL for the Prince Albert Raiders and Vancouver Giants between 2005 and 2007. In 2005-06, he played one AHL game, with the Houston Aeros.
Between 2007 and 2010, Thelen played nearly exclusively in the ECHL — for the Texas Wildcatters and Florida Everblades — save a nine-game stint with the Rochester Americans in 2009-10. His final professional hockey season was 2010-2011, when he played for the Kalamazoo Wings and recorded 29 points in 65 games.
After that, Thelen, who sustained at least three concussions in his career, opted to retire at age 25.
As MN Sports Fails points out, the Wild could have chosen Cory Schneider, Travis Zajac, Mike Green, or Pekka Rinne instead.

Others they could taken include Drew Stafford, Devan Dubnyk, and Alexander Radulov, who were chosen 13th, 14th, and 15th, respectively.
Marek Schwarz: St. Louis Blues, 17th Overall
Drafted after a single season split between a trio of Czech teams, the St. Louis Blues took a gamble on a goaltender who didn't work out.
After being drafted, Schwarz spent one season with the Vancouver Giants, posting a 26-24-4 record, a 2.67 Goals Against Average, and .900 Save Percentage before turning pro to begin the 2006-07 season. He made his NHL debut on Dec. 12, 2006, when he made 24 saves in a 3-2 loss against the Chicago Blackhawks.

— Tendy Gear (@Tendy_Gear) July 7, 2017
That NHL appearance was one of just six Schwarz made between then and 2008-09. He spent most of his time with the Peoria Rivermen — and a little bit with the ECHL's Alaska Aces — as Manny Legace, and later, Chris Mason, got the bulk of the big-league crease action.
After 2008-2009, Schwarz returned to the Czech Republic and has stayed overseas ever since. He's still as of this season at age 33, playing for Liberec Bili Tygri HC. 2019-20 is his sixth season and second stint with the Czech Extraliga squad; he also played two seasons in Austria for Znojmo Orli HC from 2016 through 2018.
Rob Schremp: Edmonton Oilers, 25th Overall
Rob Schremp's 2005-06 London Knights' season was one for the ages: he led the OHL with an almost-unthinkable 145 points in 57 games (an average of 2.54 per game) and 47 more points in just 19 playoff games (an average of 2.47.)

The season capped off an outstanding, five-year junior career for the slick playmaker, who looked poised to take the NHL by storm and become an Oilers' cornerstone up the middle.
Related: What Ever Happened To Rob Schremp?
His first professional campaign, with the Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins, was promising as he recorded 53 points in 69 games. However, like many other elite juniors players, Schremp had trouble producing at the NHL level.
Shockingly, the player who lit the lamp 154 times in juniors never did so a for the Oilers. Between 2006 and 2009, he appeared in just seven games for the Alberta-based squad, tallying three assists.
The Oilers placed their seemingly can't-miss pick on waivers in Sept. 2009 and he was picked up by the New York Islanders. He found a little success in two seasons there, tallying 25 points in 2009-10 and 22 in 2010-11 before being placed on waivers again and getting claimed by the Atlanta Thrashers in their final season before relocating to Winnipeg.

After not being tendered a qualifying offer by the brand-new Winnipeg Jets franchise, Schremp tried to revitalize his career in Europe. He didn't stick around anywhere for very long across the pond, suiting up for no fewer than six teams in six different leagues before returning to North America in 2015-16 to lead the Portland Pirates in scoring with 42 points in 75 games.
Schremp returned to Europe thereafter but finally called it quits after spending the 2017-18 season with the Austrian League's Salzburg EC.
Dave Bolland: Chicago Blackhawks, 32nd Overall
The reason Dave Bolland is on this list is not that he was never a productive NHLer. It's because his fall from two-time Stanley Cup champion to total obscurity was incredibly swift, if not meteoric.
Bolland, a hard-nosed agitator with the unflattering nickname "The Rat," had as many as 47 points in an NHL campaign. He, most memorably, scored the game-winning goal with just 59 seconds to go in Game 6 of the 2013 Final against the Boston Bruins that clinched their second Stanley Cup in four seasons.

That was the centre's career high point, as he went from Cup hero to completely out of hockey in just three seasons.
Even after a 12-point 2013-14 campaign with the Toronto Maple Leafs in which he played just 23 games due to an ankle injury, the Florida Panthers still signed him to a five-year, $27.5 million contract in July 2014. It was a terrible decision; he played just 78 games over two seasons in Sunrise before being sent down to the AHL, where he played two games.
Dave Bolland, Florida Panthers (Amy Irvin / The Hockey Writers)
In 2016, the Panthers traded Bolland to the Arizona Coyotes; that October, Bolland's agent Anton Thun said the then 30-year-old "may never play again" due to the combination of back and ankle injuries.
Thun was right: Bolland never suited up for the Coyotes. 2018-19 was his final season on their books.
Honourable Mentions:
Lauri Tukonen: Los Angeles Kings, 11th Overall. He played just five NHL games for the Kings before playing in Europe — primarily in the SM-Liiga — from 2009-10 through 2018-19.
Lukas Kaspar: San Jose Sharks, 22nd Overall. He played sixteen games for the Sharks between 2007 and 2009; has played in Europe since 2010-11 and is currently playing the Czech Republic.
Kris Chucko: Calgary Flames, 24th Overall. He played just a pair of games for the Flames in 2008-09 and has been out of hockey since 2011.

A few months ago I learned about an American girl who has been forced to live in Ghana with her father's relatives, against the wishes of her mother who has sole legal custody. If you are a regular reader of The Chicago Ambassador you probably read it. If not, you definitely did not see it because the media in Chicago have no interest in the story. (For the original story, click here).
In a nutshell, the girl's mother — Ivy Davis, met her future husband and daughter's father Raymond C. Gunn, after running away from a group home in North Carolina when she was 15 and he was 21. Soon after, Davis became pregnant with Gunn and he convinced her to move to Olympia Fields, where he resided with his family. They were married in 2003, by his father Raymond F. Gunn, who also was a lawyer in Illinois.
Over the next 8 years, the marriage had its ups and downs, with Davis ultimately moving to Georgia with her young daughter Christina to be close to her mother, two years after being married. In 2009, Raymond filed for divorce and was awarded custody of their daughter. Davis, who did not have the resources to hire an attorney, represented herself and claims that she was bullied by the court system and her husband's attorneys. According to the original divorce decree, the child's father was to have sole custody, with Davis getting supervised visitation for the first 18 months, provided she post $5,000 bond. During the divorce proceedings, which lasted from 2009 until 2011, there were no allegations made against Davis' character or other factors that usually would cause a mother not to be given at least joint custody of her child.
Christina was first brought to Ghana in January 2009, Davis said she was led to believe that her daughter was going to visit her ex-husband's father and his wife Ayesha Hakeem for three weeks. Since then, Davis has only seen her daughter on a couple occasions, the last being in 2013, when Raymond F. Gunn and Hakeem brought her back for a two-day visit, according to Davis.
I wrote the story, and also did a follow up interview with the girl's father Raymond C. Gunn, who was sent to Cook County Jail in June for civil contempt until his daughter is returned. (He currently remains in jail). And 12-year old Christina, she's still in Ghana with her father's father and his wife. Her mother, Ivy Davis, remains in the U.S. and still has "legal" custody, although those are just words. While the U.S. State Department has opened an investigation, the FBI claims it is powerless because the U.S. and Ghana have no extradition treaty. So, the case is basically in limbo.
How long the girl's father, Raymond C. Gunn, can remain in jail remains an open question. In June, when he was locked up, attorneys for Ivy Davis told me that someone is usually jailed on civil contempt charges in order to compel them to do something. In this case, Raymond C. Gunn was ordered to jail until he was able to produce his daughter at court in Cook County. Yet, more than six months later the daughter remains in Ghana. On Monday, a motion to set him free was denied in Cook County Circuit Court, although I'm told once a judge deems the incarceration as punitive rather than to compel someone to do something they usually release the person. Also on Monday, the Illinois Appellate Court (First District) upheld the Circuit Court's previous decisions in the case that Gunn's legal team was trying to have overturned. (Click here to read the decision). So, unfortunately if you're wondering how many more birthdays Christina will be kept from her mother; that remains a question without an answer.
If I were to look at this story from a news editor or public relations angle, it has many possibilities. There's the popular angle of a young, poor mother being bullied by the courts during her divorce. There's the local angle, since the court battle took place in the Cook County Courts. There's also an interesting angle of class wars amongst African Americans at play here. In addition, there's the straight-forward hard news angle of a kidnapping of an American child and the State Department investigation as well. Any of those could and should be covered, but have not been for some reason.
I should point out that I was interviewed by Rivet Radio along with Katherine Haskins Becker, attorney for Ivy Davis. But besides Rivet, no other outlet has picked up the story. I should also note that I was on WGN Radio to talk about a story I did on homeless artist Stephen Martin and did mention the story to the host while on the air. My hope in doing so was that more fellow media members would learn about it from the radio broadcast than from the original publication of the story. Unfortunately, if any heard it they didn't follow up.
I'm not going to name names or publications, but I will tell you that many of our city's leading reporters and publications, those who claim to be and are looked at as a voice for the powerless, are aware of this story and have done nothing. I'm not an advocate for Ivy Davis. However, I have vetted her story and she checks out. She isn't a money-grubber, or crackpot, or had any drug or mental history that would cause hesitation to cover the story.
So, just why the story hasn't interested the bigger media outlets, I can't answer. Perhaps it's because it's about an African American girl. You cannot tell me that if Christina was a white girl from Wilmette, CNN wouldn't be all over this, along with the big papers here in Chicago. Perhaps it's because it's seen as a "domestic" issue, although if one looks into the case for more than five minutes they will discover it's much more than that. I suppose they have sexier stories to work on, like the latest activity of Chief Keef or the latest comments from Donald Trump.
Regular readers and viewers of the Chicago papers and news stations shouldn't be surprised. After all, the Laquan McDonald story was originally reported as a routine police shooting, if there is such a thing, and it wasn't really questioned. Only after Jamie Kalven, (who is not a part of the press corps covering crime here) brought the video to light which led to a murder charge against police officer Jason Van Dyke, did the press start following up. Also, although there may be questions about the Homan Square stories, it was The Guardian, an English paper, that broke that story.
I don't know what's wrong with the press here. Perhaps there aren't enough reporters, not enough editorial space in the papers or one of the many other reasons that impacts what makes the news. That debate will continue. One thing I'm sure of is that I can't explain the reasoning of my media colleagues, which goes back to why I started The Chicago Ambassador in the first place.
Bob- I am a Chicago Public School teacher. I am white, as are my daughters, who now remain with my ex, whom I was never married to, but was granted sole custody of them in 2015. Even though there was a history of domestic violence, the court refused to view the evidence. Even though my oldest daughter is not his biologically, and there is no valid Voluntary Acknowledgement of Paternity on file in Illinois (meaning he has NO standing to have even filed for custody), he got it. Even though there are documented reports of abuse of my daughters while in his care, the court-appointed Child's Rep (who has failed to set up visitation for over 18 months) argued on his behalf to keep it from the records. I have contacted numerous reporters, and all I ask IS that they look at the evidence for themselves and I am given some type of outlet for this lack of justice. No one bites. Thanks for at least exposing this story, if to no more than a few chosen readers.
Please email me at Robertchiarito@thechicagoambassador I probably won't write about it but I may be able to point you in a positive direction. And as for this story – I'll have an update soon. Things just took place and the public needs to know.

The previous post I spent dissing the EPIC Pass, but praising its mountains. Vail will always be one of my favorite places on Earth, despite being sick of high prices and breaking-down lifts. Breckenridge will always be my go-to place for a party (waiting for the Plunge!), but I'll never reveal my secret stashes there, not even if you tortured me with a ski stick (yes, that's what they were originally called!).
Keystone? Well, Keystone isn't really much of a secret. The mountain is pretty big, but doesn't really compare to the other big mountains in Colorado. The infrastructure is good, but the runs a bit on the iffy side. Keystone's problem, really, is mostly not crowds or cost, but the alternating exposure of the slopes. If you look at a map, Keystone is in fact three mountains aligned North (front side) to South (Outback). You ski the North and South side of each mountain.
The problem? The sun melts snow on the South flanks/slopes much faster than on the North sides and you end up with a pattern of alternating-quality snow. The North sides are generally colder and have the better snow, while the South sides suffer from icy conditions in the morning and can become a slush trap in the afternoon. That's not nearly universal, of course: sometimes you want the warmth, for instance if the snow is icy everywhere and you want it to melt, in which case the North sides can remain icy and inhospitable all day.
But this is not a litany of bad things about Keystone Resort. Instead, I'd like to present my favorite places on the mountain. I feel generous, since I am not going to see you there next year, as I will be skipping the EPIC Pass (as mentioned before).
How this affects my choice of secret stashes is pretty clear. (1) The terrain by Alpine lift in Copper is fantastic, for instance, but the lift itself freaky slow. (2) While I love the Ruby Express lift line at Keystone, the snow can be of extremely variable quality and easily turns into an ice trap. (3) I loved Paradise Bowl in Crested Butte, but there was no untouched powder ten minutes after resort opening. (4) Groomers have long not been my thing any longer. Part of it is that you have to take them anyway to get to your favorite places, but part of it simply that I find it boring to just go down a run, whether straighlining or carving. If there is lots of powder it can be fun, but even then just a couple times.
A word of caution: the places I frequent are dangerous. People on the slopes are dangerous, but trees are much worse. Also, there are things (rocks, stumps, branches) between trees. Finally, my favorite places have cliffs, jumps, bumps, moguls, and other torture devices strewn densely in them. Proceed at your own risk, and always remember that this article was written by someone who had to sit out snow sports for 5 years because of a shoulder separation.

L'uragano Gustav è il settimo ciclone tropicale e il secondo uragano maggiore della stagione degli uragani atlantici 2008. Si è formato la mattina del 25 agosto 2008 a 420 chilometri da Port au Prince, Haiti; è passato a tempesta tropicale già nel pomeriggio ed è diventato uragano il giorno successivo.

Storia
Il 25 agosto 2008 una perturbazione nelle Antille formò delle bande ricurve che, unendosi, formarono l'occhio ciclonico. Il Centro Uragani statunitense lo ha classificato come depressione tropicale e ha inviato un aereo specializzato in caccia agli uragani indagare. Il sistema ha registrato venti tranne che nei quadranti sud est e sud ovest e le informazioni inviate dall'aereo hanno confermato che la depressione tropicale si è trasformata in tempesta tropicale, designato con il nome di "Gustav".

Il 26 agosto del 2008 un altro aereo specializzato ha registrato venti intorno ai 150 km/h, valore tipico di un uragano. Il 7 settembre l'ambasciatore giamaicano negli Stati Uniti, Anthony Johnson pronunciò un discorso al Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium di Washington nel quale chiedeva ai giamaicani della diaspora immigrati negli USA di contribuire al National Disaster Recovery Fund, finalizzato a raccogliere fondi per sostenere la sanità e la scuola pubblica del loro paese di origine.

Q: Showing truncation is a ring homomorphism Let $R$ be a commutative ring with $1$ and let $n$ be any positive integer. Denote the ring of formal power series by $R[[x]]$ and define a map as follows:
$f: R[[x]] \rightarrow R[x]/(x^{n})$
by sending $g$ to $g+(x^{n})$.
It is clear this map preserves sums, but why preserves products? i.e a ring homomorphism.

A: Let $I$ be the ideal of $R[[x]]$ generated by $x^n$. One can easily see that $I$ is the set of all series in $R[[x]]$ whose first non-zero coefficient is that of $x^m$ with $m\geq n$.
There is a canonical map $q:R[[x]]\to R[[x]]/I$, mapping each series to its coset module $I$, and it is a ring homomorphism.
Now, the inclusion gives us a ring morphism $\phi:R[x]\to R[[x]]$. If $J\subseteq R[x]$ is the ideal of $R[x]$ generated by $x^n$, then clearly $\phi(J)\subseteq I$, so $\phi$ induces a well-defined ring morphism $\bar\phi:R[x]/J\to R[[x]]/I$.
Let us check that $\bar\phi$ is an isomorphism. Its kernel is $\phi^{-1}(I)/J$, but this is zero because $\phi^{-1}(I)$ is actually equal to $J$. On the other hand, $\bar\phi$ is surjective: if $g\in R[[x]]$ is any series, there exist $a_0$, $\dots$, $a_{n-1}\in R$ and $h\in R[[x]]$ such that $g=a_0+a_1x+\cdots+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+x^nh$, so that $g\cong a_0+a_1x+\cdots+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}\mod I$ and therefore $$\bar\phi(a_0+a_1x+\cdots+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+J)=g.$$
This does all you want, because what you are calling truncation is the composition $\bar\phi^{-1}\circ q$.

Ship observations and ocean models indicate that heat export from the mixed layer of the western Pacific warm pool is small (<20 watts per square meter). This value was used to deduce the effect of clouds on the net solar radiation at the sea surface. The inferred magnitude of this shortwave cloud forcing was large (≈ – 100 watts per square meter) and exceeded its observed value at the top of the atmosphere by a factor of about 1.5. This result implies that clouds (at least over the warm pool) reduce net solar radiation at the sea surface not only by reflecting a significant amount back to space, but also by trapping a large amount in the cloudy atmosphere, an inference that is at variance with most model results. The excess cloud absorption, if confirmed, has many climatic implications, including a significant reduction in the required tropics to extrattropics heat transport in the oceans.

US 'hell-bent' on hostility despite talks, North Korea says
North Korea has accused the US of being "hell-bent on hostile acts", despite a recent agreement between the two countries to resume nuclear talks.
Pyongyang's delegation to the United Nations said on Wednesday that the US was "obsessed with sanctions".
It also accused Washington of attempting to "undermine the peaceful atmosphere" on the Korean peninsular.
The statement comes just days after the leaders of the two countries held a historic meeting.
US President Donald Trump met his North Korean counterpart, Kim Jong-un, on Sunday in the heavily fortified demilitarised zone (DMZ) which divides the two Koreas.
He became the first sitting US president to set foot in the North and, after talks that lasted for almost an hour, the pair agreed to set up teams to resume stalled negotiations on denuclearisation.
But the North Korean statement on Wednesday marked a shift in tone and a return to the angry exchanges that have marred relations between the countries in recent times.
What did North Korea say?
The North Korean delegation said it was responding to a US allegation that it had breached a cap on refined petroleum imports that was set in 2017.
It also said it was responding to a joint letter sent by the US, France, Germany and the UK to all UN member states that called for further sanctions on North Korea.
The letter reportedly asked all members to send expatriate North Korean workers home.

"What can't be overlooked is the fact that this joint letter game was carried out… on the very same day when President Trump proposed [a] summit meeting," the statement read.
"[It] speaks to the reality that the United States is practically more and more hell-bent [on] hostile acts against the DPRK [North Korea]."
"All UN member states will have to keep vigilance against deliberate attempts by the United States to undermine the peaceful atmosphere that has been created on the Korean Peninsula," it said.
Pyongyang added that it was "quite ridiculous" for the US to view sanctions as a "panacea for all problems".
The US is yet to respond to the statement.
How are US-North Korea relations?
Negotiations with North Korea to try to convince it to abandon its controversial nuclear programme reached a peak last year when Mr Trump and Mr Kim held a summit in Singapore.
They both committed to the "complete denuclearisation" of the Korean peninsula, but without clarifying what that meant.
But those talks ended with no deal, as they failed to agree on the pace at which sanctions should be eased. Since then the negotiations have stalled, though Mr Kim and Mr Trump have exchanged letters.
At the meeting at the DMZ on Sunday their exchanges were largely complimentary.
Mr Trump – who once referred to Mr Kim as "little rocket man" – called their friendship "particularly great" and said it was a "great day for the world".

For those who are not aware yet, Queensland Government will ban single use plastic bags as of July 2018. That means that from then on you might need to carry your groceries in reusable bags, compostable/bio-degradable bags, hessian or jute bags, your hands, pockets, cardboard boxes, whatever, there's plenty of options, but NO PLASTIC !!!
Davies Park Market is pleased to host Children's Aid International (CAI), a volunteer run, non-profit, Queensland registered charity established in 2010. Volunteers sell winter hats, felt boots and other warm accessories to raise funds to provide for children and women in need living in developing such as Nepal or Cambodia.
The Friends of the Hound Greyhound Adoption Group is volunteer-based and not-for-profit, relying solely on fundraising and donations, the generosity of our local community and the efforts of our members, to achieve our aims. They joined us at the Davies Park Market again this Saturday 22nd of April to raise funds, public awareness and fingers crossed also to adopt a few lovely greyhounds.
Davies Park Market aims to support sustainable pasture farming, which promotes the health and well-being of hens. As of November, the only eggs sold at the market will be straight from our small-scale farmers or certified organic stalls! The well-being of Australian hens and of our farmers is important to us and we believe it is to you as well.
Sunday, 11 Sept at Davies Park from 9am!

All we ask is for you to follow a few simple steps to get the best results!
Paint your nails and toenails, particularly if you have acrylic extensions! Not only will this leave you feeling even more pampered but it will also prevent your nails and cuticles from being stained.
Buff away dead skin cells with Polishing Body Scrub to reveal the ultimate smooth base for your tan. Pay particular attention to dry areas such as elbows, knees and feet. Then use Radiance Body Balm to rehydrate your skin and leave your skin feeling silky and smooth. The pH-balanced formula will also encourage a better result from your tan.
On the day of your tan, don't apply deodorant, perfume or body lotion as these act as a barrier and stop tan from developing properly.
Bring dark loose clothing and flip flops or loose fitting shoes. The tan will wash out of most clothing, but may stain lighter coloured items, especially nylon.
If you wear, contact lenses please remove these as the tan may stain or contaminate the lenses.
If possible, please avoid any sports or exercise which may cause perspiration and avoid getting wet prior to washing off the guide colour as this will affect your tanning results.
You will need to leave the tan to develop for 8 to 10 hours before showering, use siennaX balance body wash for best results. Avoid having your shower or bath too hot as this will decrease the lifetime of the tan.
Hands feet and face will fade quicker than other body areas, you can top these areas up with express tanning mist from siennaX.
Remember the tan is NOT a SPF so don't forget to still apply you sun protection.


South Glos Lib Dems are thrilled to learn that £1m for Extra Care housing is coming to the area.
The news was announced at the Health Overview and Scrutiny committee last night (8th March), due to a successful bid by Sirona to the Homes and Communities agency. This means the long awaited development at the Thornbury hospital site could at last be coming.
Liberal Democrat Maggie Tyrrell (Thornbury South) said: "This is very exciting news. We've been fighting long and hard for Extra Care housing on the site of the hospital. When it's built, the hospital will serve a much wider area, but it's excellent news for Thornbury that the Extra Care housing is taking a step forward.


A letter from Whispers of Hope coordinator Melissa Shulga.
Nov. 2, 2017 4:55 p.m.
My name is Melissa Shulga and I am pleased to have recently been hired as the coordinator of Whispers of Hope Community Kitchen and Thrift Store. While I am new to the position, I am not new to the organization, having served on the board for almost three years and as treasurer for two of those years.
This last year has been hard on the organization. Change of management coupled with negative social stigma and an eviction notice from the City has sent our humble operation into a tailspin. Many in the community have spoken out both in favor of and against what we do, but the kind and generous actions of several individuals and organizations have spoken the loudest.
Thank you to all the volunteers, donors, shoppers, and advocates who have kept our kitchen strong!
Whisper's feeds anyone in need during the week, and (as we have for the last few summers) serves an average of 60 people per day. While some of our guests are without, many do have houses to stay in. We do not discern who is in need; instead we offer an open door and an open heart. Despite the public perception of having no rules for our guests, we definitely do have posted expectations, and have asked individuals who have not respected them to leave. Some guests have even been banned. I do not mean to boast this; it is merely to reiterate that we have standards and expect our guests to be respectful. Like other businesses and organizations, we cannot control the actions of our guests outside of our establishment.
Our thrift store serves many in the community who need affordable options. We help to divert items from the landfill, recycle and encourage up-cycling, support crafters and artists, offer discounts to seniors, donate items to fire victims and the impoverished, connect folks with community services, and so much more.
Whispers' has been labelled enablers, bleeding hearts who are encouraging theft and drug use. I hope, and it would seem, that most do not feel this way. If you suffer loneliness or despair or experience financial, physical, or mental hardship, you have a place in our community. We are compassionate and tolerant to those enduring whatever struggles, and I am proud to be a part of a community that does so. Whispers will overcome misunderstanding as we look for a new home for our organization.
I welcome anyone with concerns or constructive criticism to please help participate! We recognize that communities are complex and it takes many stakeholders to help everyone thrive and evolve. Sharing your experiences and ideas help us to improve our services and nurture healthy relationships.

A top U.S. diplomat ties Trump directly to a political quid pro quo in Ukraine. Trump dismisses Syria by saying, "Let someone else fight over this blood-stained sand." The roundtable is here.
Janet Hook, national political reporter for the Los Angeles Times. (@hookjan)
Toluse Olorunnipa, White House reporter for the Washington Post. (@ToluseO)
Jack Beatty, On Point news analyst. (@JackBeattyNPR)
From The Reading List
Washington Post: "Republicans storm closed-door impeachment hearing as escalating Ukraine scandal threatens Trump" — "Republicans' defense of President Trump grew more frantic and disjointed Wednesday, with House members storming a closed-door meeting, delaying the testimony of an impeachment witness as the GOP grappled with a growing abuse-of-power scandal centered on the president.
"A group of Trump's congressional allies escalated their complaints about the impeachment inquiry by barging into a secure facility on Capitol Hill where a Pentagon official was to testify before the House Intelligence Committee.
"Their intrusion, which caused the testimony to be delayed for about five hours over security concerns, came a day after the top U.S. diplomat in Ukraine testified under oath that the White House had threatened to withhold military aid unless the Ukrainian government announced investigations for Trump's political benefit."
Politico: "Elijah Cummings is first African American lawmaker to lie in state at Capitol" — "Congress on Thursday bid goodbye to Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), the son of sharecroppers who rose to become one of the Democratic Party's most influential figures at a tumultuous time in American politics.
"The late Oversight Committee chairman — who represented his majority-black Baltimore district in the House for two decades — became the first African American lawmaker to lie in state in the Capitol, an honor bestowed to only a few dozen statesmen, presidents and military leaders throughout U.S. history.
"Thousands of visitors are expected to stream through the Capitol to pay their final respects to Cummings, who died Oct. 17 at age 68.
"Cummings' casket sat about 75 feet away from a statue of another civil rights icon, Rosa Parks, and just steps away from the bust of the former Confederate president Jefferson Davis — a reminder of Washington's troubled history on race, which Cummings himself battled throughout his life."

"At the end of the day, he still considers himself to be in the hospitality business, and he saw an opportunity to take the biggest leaders from around the world and he wanted to put on the absolute best show,' Mulvaney said on Fox News Sunday. 'He's in the hotel business, or at least he was before he was president.' "
