This stunning volume represents the culmination of a decade-long collaboration between two Swiss graphic artists, M. S. Bastian and Isabelle L. Bastokalypse reproduces the thirty-two large black-and-white canvases of their monumental graphic sequence of the same name; together the panels tell a story of apocalypse and the end of the world that amalgamates images inspired by a wide range of eras and art examples, including medieval Tuscan mosaics, renaissance panels, baroque engravings, Meiji-era Japanese prints, and contemporary graphic novels. The resulting work is alternately terrifying and amusing, reflecting the horrors and surprises of the world as it they reach us day by day through the media.
The thirty-two parts of this 168-foot long painting are gathered in an oversized sixty-four-plate concertina folder with an essay on apocalyptic motifs by art critic Konrad Tobler printed on the verso. The result is as much an art object as it is a book, as unusual and thrilling in its own way as the images it contains.

Lion king show return to Disney!
A good chorus of Hakuna Matata would be great right about now. It has been a long time since the Lion King show has performed. It was originally with the rest of the park during the first quarter of 2020. With the limitations and restrictions after the reopening, it was difficult for any show to reopen. Disney has been working to try to out logistics for reopening shows but difficult to keep people safe. However, there is good news, the Lion King show return to Disney soon!
When will it fully return?
This is unclear as it has not been officially announced, It does look like it will be ready for a Mid-May reopening. There have also been videos and photos from inside the Harambe Theatre. It was previously announced that the Lion King show would return this summer, so this seems like it was moved up. Part of this is likely due to changes in the atmosphere and adapting safety recommendations.
Will this be the same show?
It will be slightly modified from the show back in 2020. Of the changes, the biggest will be capacity change to the Harambe theatre. There will also likely be changes to keep the performers safe. With recommendations to prevent illness, there may be other changes that will take place. However, with that being said, the best news is that the music will be the same familiar songs.
Within the next couple of months, we should hear more about other shows and attractions coming back from their hiatus. Lion King has been an incredibly popular show and will be a big addition for Animal Kingdom to get back. The shows tend to get guests into the seats rather than in other areas of the park. By opening more of the shows, then lines will likely improve as well. This will be great for the park all around!
Are you looking forward to the Lion King show return to Disney again? Let us know in the comments below!

Q: Loop through elements to find specific ID Any number of elements can exist, with the following ID.

Title 1

Title 2

Title 3

Title 4

I would like to loop through those elements to see if the number at the end of the ID matches the number in a variable.
This is what I have so far thought it does not work:
var myNum = 3
var findNum = /[\d]+/;
var findElement = document.getElementById('my-div-' + findNum);
for(i=0; i<findElement; i++) {
    if (myNum = findNum) {
        console.log('Success! myNum = ' + myNum +
                    ' and findNum = ' + findNum +
                    ' and findElement = ' + findElement);
    }
    else {
        console.log('Fail! myNum = ' + myNum +
                    ' and findNum = ' + findNum +
                    ' and findElement = ' + findElement);
    }
}

A: Using jQuery you could select it with the following:
var id = 4;
var $element = $("#my-div-" + id);

Where id is the variable that holds the number.

A: You can reference the element directly like so:
Non jQuery method:
var myNum = 3;
var el = document.getElementById('my-div-' + myNum);
if (!el) {
    alert("Fail");
} else {
    alert("Success");
}

Working example:  http://jsfiddle.net/EtZxh/4/
jQuery Method:
If you want to use jQuery simply replace with the following:
var myNum = 5;
var el = $('#my-div-' + myNum);
if (el.size() == 0) {
    alert("Fail");
} else {
    alert("Success");
}

Working example:  http://jsfiddle.net/EtZxh/

A: getElementById doesn't return multiple elements. It returns only one:
var elem = document.getElementById('my-div-' + number);

if (elem) {
    // elem exists
}

And jQuery:
if ($('#my-div-' + number).length > 0) {
    // elem exists
}

A: var myNum = 3;

$('div[id^="my-div-"]').each(function() {
    console.log("hello");
    if(myNum === parseInt($(this).attr('id').replace('my-div-',''), 10)) {
      alert("found => " + $(this).attr('id'));
    } else {
      // do else
    }
});

DEMO

A: You can do something like this in jQuery
var num = 3;
$("div[id^='my-div-']").each(function(){
    var id = this.id;
    if(id.slice(-1) === num){
        alert("Success: " +id);
    }else{
        alert("Fail : " +id)
    }
});

A happy story: Two chis rescued from Kuwait, flown to Arizona
LittleDogsRock
chi addict
Here is a positive article, which is to counterbalance the last one.
These two little guys were rescued from a Kuwait shelter where they were not kept in good conditions. They are now available for adoption in Arizona.

Chihuahua pals travel a long way to find a home
Comments | Recommend
Mandy Zajac, Tribune
Zak and Azir have come a long way for two guys with really short legs.
The 10-pound, copper- and fawn-colored Chihuahuas began life with — some say — royal connections in the Middle East. Now, they're living with a foster family in the East Valley, awaiting a permanent home in a desert 8,000 miles from the one they were born in.
"It's a little bizarre. If you had told me six months ago I'd have two dogs from Saudi Arabia in my house, I wouldn't have believed it," says Sonny Garrett, the Mesa volunteer providing a temporary home for the pair.
Arizona Chihuahua Rescue learned about the dogs — then living in a shelter in Kuwait — when the group's president received an e-mail from a woman in Wyoming.
"I thought it was kind of a joke at first," says Barbara Rabe. "But this woman had been over there and done some volunteering at the shelter and met the dogs personally. It was legitimate."
The dogs, it turns out, were originally purchased in Saudi Arabia by a Scottish nanny working for, it's rumored, a royal Saudi family. But the job involved a lot of travel, and for more than a year, the dogs were shuffled from caretaker to caretaker, sometimes living on a sun-baked rooftop with only tattered carpets for shade, other times housed in a closet-sized kennel in Riyadh, where they received minimal human contact. "Their food and water was changed, and their kennel was hosed down once a day with the dogs inside," says Rabe. "They were really just horrible conditions."
Eventually the pair wound up at a no-kill shelter in Kuwait. Protecting Animal Welfare Society, or PAWS, tried to find Zak and Azir a home in the Middle East. When there were no takers, the group began appealing to rescue organizations abroad.
According to Rabe, Arizona Chihuahua Rescue was the only group to answer the call, working with PAWS to find a way for the dogs to come to the U.S.
"They really can't place dogs over there. They have a difficult time finding good homes," she says.
And though Arizona has no shortage of Chihuahuas in need of rescue, Rabe says they couldn't let two more dogs go homeless simply because they were half a world away.
"They're just great, perfectly healthy little dogs," she says.
PAWS raised almost $4,000 to fly Zak, Azir and three other dogs of varying breeds to the U.S. The canines traveled from Kuwait to Frankfurt, Germany, to Los Angeles by plane; then their chaperone rented a van and drove them to the parking lot of Cracker Barrel at Interstate 10 and Chandler Boulevard, where Rabe and Garrett met the exhausted animals. The other dogs were adopted, but Garrett took the Chihuahuas home.
"(Zak's and Azir's) personalities are just such that you would never know they've lived through what they have," she says. "I've had other fosters who don't know what people are, and they hide and cry and freak out. These guys aren't like that at all. They're just super, just full of unconditional love."
She and Rabe say the dogs should be adopted together.
"They're not related, but they believe they are. They're very, very bonded to each other. Like brothers," says Rabe.
The pair have received medical checkups and are now up for adoption.
Zak and Azir
There is a $315 adoption fee for Zak and Azir (combined). Fees for other Chihuahuas available from Arizona Chihuahua Rescue range from $150 to $250 per dog. Fees include shots, microchipping and spay/neuter surgery. Adoption applications are available online at www.azchihuahuarescue.org. You may e-mail the completed form to [email protected], or send it via

I often tell a musician or folks in general, I am going up to Bethany Baptist Church Jazz Vespers and I can't count the amount of times that the questions are: What is a Jazz Vespers? Is it something I should attend? Can any type of jazz musician play there? Well here's some answers for Jazz musicians looking for another venue to play in, for Jazz lovers and for those who may not be a Jazz lover. Let's start with some definitions.
Vespers is the sunset evening prayer service in the Orthodox, Western and Eastern Catholic, Anglican, and Lutheran liturgies of the canonical hours. The word comes from the Greek ἑσπέρα ("hespera") and the Latin vesper, meaning "evening.
Jazz, as most know Jazz, was born in the United States and is still really the best music to represent America and it's a serious form of improvisation. According to Jazz America, "It is partly planned and partly spontaneous; that is, as the musicians perform a pre-determined tune, they have the opportunity to create their own interpretations within that tune in response to the other musicians' performances and whatever else may occur 'in the moment' -- this is called improvisation and is the defining element of jazz."
Well, playing off both those explanations, a sunset evening prayer session that allows for the inclusion of improvised jazz music is clearly what Jazz Vespers is all about. Let's examine it through the eyes of one church's mission to a successful jazz vesper series.
In 1870 a small group of African Americans got together and worshiped somewhere in Newark, NJ. Now let's fast forward to more recent times when the Reverend M. William Howard, Jr., staying true to the mission of worship, assumed leadership as 12th pastor of Bethany. According to Bethany Baptist Church history, Reverend M. William Howard, Jr. guided the congregation through a series of facilitated discussions in developing the Church's Mission Statement that commits the church and its members to "recruit, equip and deploy followers of Jesus Christ for discipleship and transforming service to others…" Among the initiatives Dr. Howard undertook by the culmination of his first decade as pastor in 2010 were a Jazz Vespers worship service that recognized Jazz for it sacred dimensions.
What Makes a Successful Jazz Vespers?
Well, I have attended a lot of the Jazz Vesper sessions, and I see many activities in action that led to continuing success such as strong, continuous church leadership, historic relationship with past musicians, connections to today's jazz environment, members giving in service to the church, and finally some great jazz music.
Strong, continuous church leadership - Dr. Howard led the initiative in building a memorial plaza at the entry way of the church, amongst many other initiatives. This plaza has stood the test of time and addresses the mission in that the memorial plaza remains a historical reminder of past members, including a long standing member, world renowned Jazz musician Earl May.
Historic relationship with past musicians - Earl May, born September 17, 1927, is one of the most prodigious and prolific bassists of the postwar era, lending his rich, round sound to sessions headlined by jazz icons John Coltrane, Chet Baker, and Dizzy Gillespie and many, many more. Earl May passed in January 2008 at age of 80 and has a stone as a reminder and tribute in the Bethany Baptist Church memorial plaza.
Jazz Vespers History – The vespers committee is made up of members and there are a few historic connections. One I will mention is between the Earl May, the legacy stone I mentioned above, and the wife of Earl May. Lee May keeps the legacy alive by being a member of the Jazz Vespers committee and fully participates in the service side of helping folks feel comfortable when they come to the vespers. https://www.facebook.com/boz.may.
Connections to Today's Jazz Environment – Knowing who's who in the Jazz environment and how to get the best musicians to play at your Jazz Vespers is a challenge for sure. Well how about having Dorthaan Kirk, known as Newark's First Lady of Jazz without Playing a Note. This title was bestowed upon Dorthaan Kirk a few years ago by John Schreiber, president and chief executive of the New Jersey Performing Arts Center. A very fitting title since Dorthaan Kirk is the widow of famed blind instrumentalist Rahsaan Roland Kirk. Rashaan Roland Kirk played with the likes of Charles Mingus and Quincy Jones among many other famous jazz musicians. With a past connection like that which means longstanding, deep connections to some of the best Jazz musicians around plus Dorthaan Kirk now works for WBGO jazz radio 88.3, a Newark public jazz station. The respect she has along with other members of the jazz vespers comity is very evident in that top professionals show up year after year to play in the Bethany Baptist Church Jazz vespers program.
Members giving in service to the church - The church members are very enthusiastic about the program and attend on a regular basis.The members volunteer before, during and after the jazz vesper program to make sure visitors and musicians feel welcomed, regardless of your religion, race, or whatever. They serve food after the evening in the hall downstairs which fills up with folks enjoying the food, discussing the Jazz and connecting with neighbors.
Well with all that, who plays when it's time to listen to some serious Jazz? How about the best of the best in the Jazz arena? Over time I have heard some of the best world class musicians playing in Bethany Baptist Church Jazz Vespers. Familiar names like Junior Mance, Yvette Glover, Hilton Ruiz, Cyrus Chestnut, Jimmy Heath, Earl May, Lizz Wright, David 'Fathead' Newman, Mulgrew Miller, Slide Hampton, Sonny Fortune, Houston Person, and Geri Allen. This year's headliners consisted of Band of Bones, led by David Chamberlain, Courtney Bryan Quartet featuring Brandee Younger, Vincent Herring Quartet, the Peter Bernstein Group and Dee Daniels.
So musicians, looking for a new venue to play in? Jazz fans, want a new place to listen to some great music? Did I mention Bethany Baptist Church Jazz Vespers is Free? Yup you get to enjoy the company of fellow members, in a spiritual environment, donate when you can, and let some really cool jazz music wash over you. It's another form of American Jazz, and it's a great time for sure.


Donald Miller's (b. 1971) book Blue Like Jazz: Non-Religious Thoughts on Christian Spirituality (2003) is a harsh rant against biblical Christianity.
This dangerous book is very popular and influential. It has sold over a million copies and can be found at places like Family Christian Stores and the Southern Baptist Convention's Lifeway Christian Bookstores.
Miller calls doctrinal statements "formulas" and says they are "created by their authors to help us, but they do more hindering than helping" (Searching for God Knows What, p. 206). He criticizes the "formulaic methodology" (p. 217). He wonders if all the time spent developing doctrine from the Bible would "be better spent painting or writing or singing or learning to speak stories" (p. 217).
Blue Like Jazz is a basically a manual for rebels.
At a book signing event, one enthusiastic reader of Miller's Blue Like Jazz said: "I love Blue Like Jazz because it's, like, a Christian book, but it doesn't make you feel bad about yourself" ("A Better Storyteller," Christianity Today, June 2007).
In discussing his involvement in church in his youth he writes, "I wished I could have subscribed to aspects of Christianity but not the whole thing" (Blue Like Jazz, p. 30). He says, "In order to believe Christianity, you either had to reduce enormous theological absurdities [i.e., Garden of Eden, universal flood] into children's stories or ignore them" (p. 31). He wanted to believe the gospel "free from the clasp of fairy tale" (p. 35). Thus, he wants to pick and choose what parts of the Bible he would believe.
Miller claims that terms such as "inerrancy" are relatively new to church history and that "much of biblical truth must go out the window when you approach it through the scientific [literal] method" (Searching for God Knows What, p. 160).
Miller tells how that he refused to be restricted by the teaching of traditional-type churches. He wanted to drink beer and watch raunchy movies and talk trashy and run around with atheists and other rebels. In discussing his involvement in church in his youth he says, "I wished I could have subscribed to aspects of Christianity but not the whole thing" (p. 30).
Miller's Jesus is a cool, gentle, party Jesus who loves to hang out with any worldly gang and show them unconditional love. Miller says that he hated it when preachers "said we had to follow Jesus" because "sometimes they would make Him sound angry" (p. 34).
In fact, Jesus was angry sometimes even in His incarnation ("he looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts," Mark 3:5), and He will be very angry in the future when the wrath of the Lamb is poured out upon mankind as described in the book of Revelation and many other places in Scripture!
"I want you to know Jesus too. ... If you haven't done it in a while, pray and talk to Jesus. Ask Him to become real to you. Ask Him to forgive you of self-addiction, ask Him to put a song in your heart. I can't think of anything better that could happen to you than this" (pp. 239, 240).
That is a false gospel and a false christ. There is nothing about repentance from sin, nothing about the necessity of Christ's blood atonement, nothing about the new birth. Just talk to Jesus, but what Jesus? The apostle Paul warned that there are false gospels, false christs, and false spirits (2 Cor. 11:1-4).
"Jesus is presented as a nice fellow who meets one at the campfire and swaps stories. He's a listener, a friend, accepting, warm, kind, and gentle. And Jesus is all these things. But the meta-narrative of the Bible, also reminds us that Jesus is terrible. He is the judge, the king, the warrior, the avenger (Rev. 19:2). The good news is not merely that Jesus wants to listen to your story, but rather that he wants to save you from his just wrath.
"The postmodern convert who comes to Christ the friendly listener has yet to meet the authentic Jesus. He's met the aspects of Jesus that are most comforting to contemporary Westerners, but he has never experienced the stripping bare of all fleshly dignity before the reigning king of the universe. And this nakedness before God is necessary for salvation.
When Miller decided to attend a raunchy secular college in Portland, Oregon, where most of the students are atheists and agnostics and they use drugs and openly fornicate and sometimes run around naked, a Christian friend sat him down and warned him that God did not want him to attend there. That was good biblical advice (e.g., 2 Corinthians 6:14-17; Ephesians 5:11; 2 Timothy 3:5; James 4:4; 1 John 2:15-17), but Miller ignored the warning and felt that the wicked atmosphere was a liberating experience. He writes: "The first day of school was exhilarating. It was better than high school. Reed had ashtrays, and everybody said cusswords" (p. 38).
Miller says that "flaming liberals" also love Jesus (Blue Like Jazz, p. 110). He described a group of atheistic, drug-using, fornicating, thieving hippies that he once spent time with as "purely lovely" and says they taught him about "goodness, about purity and kindness" (pp. 208, 209). He said that this taught him that there is light and truth outside of Christianity. He concluded, "I had discovered life outside the church, and I liked it. As I said, I preferred it" (p. 210).
Miller describes how that he was "a fundamentalist Christian" for "a summer" (Blue Like Jazz, pp. 79-80). During that short time he became "a Navy SEAL for Jesus." But his description of fundamentalism is a convenient straw man. He said that in those days he got upset when preachers talked too much about grace, as if biblical fundamentalists don't believe in and preach much about grace. He says he was self-righteous in those days, as if Bible fundamentalists are a bunch of self-righteous Pharisees, which simply isn't true. I have been walking in fundamentalist circles for 35 years and have met countless humble, godly, Christ-centered Christians who know that they are merely sinners saved by grace and that they have no righteousness apart from Jesus and that they are not better than anyone else. Miller says that during that summer he and some of his friends made a contract not to watch television or smoke or listen to music and to read the Bible every day and to memorize certain long passages of Scripture, then he describes how that he gave all this up because he "got ticked at all the people who were having fun with their lives." This gives the idea that Bible-believing fundamentalists separate from the world only because they don't like to have fun and they only read the Bible every day because they are forced to. I realize that the term "fundamentalist" is very broad, but in my experience I can say that the fundamentalists I know read the Bible because they love the Lord and want to know His thoughts and walk in His ways and they separate from the world because they want to please the Lord that saved them and they don't want to be caught in snare of the world, the flesh, and the devil.
Miller disagrees with those who reject mysticism and claims that "you cannot be a Christian without being a mystic" (p. 202).
He says, "Too much of our time is spent trying to chart God on a grid, and too little is spent allowing our hearts to feel awe" (p. 205).
This is the dangerous and unscriptural mystical approach, which downplays the importance of biblical doctrine and exalts intuition and feeling.
In the acknowledgements to Searching for God Knows What, Miller thanks New Age meditation proponent Daniel Goleman). Lighthouse Trails observes: "Goleman (author of The Meditative Mind) writes favorably about mantra meditation and Buddhism. He was the editor for a book titled Healing Emotions: Conversations with the Dalai Lama on Mindfulness, Emotions, and Health" ("Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller," Lighthouse Trails).
For more about the extreme danger of contemplative practices see the book Contemplative Mysticism: A Powerful Ecumenical Bond, which is available from Way of Life Literature.
Miller thinks that we are to build the kingdom of God on earth today, and his view of that encompasses anyone that is involved in "social justice." Under the "Activism" section of his web site Miller links to radical leftist organizations such as the ACLU, Greenpeace, and Moveon.org. His note accompanying the links says these organizations are doing the work of God, which is a reflection of a particularly dense spiritual blindness.
Miller tells about one of his housemates named Stacy who wrote a story of an astronaut who has an accident while working on a space station and has to spend the rest of his life circling the earth in a special space suit and suffering a lingering death. Miller concludes, "Stacy had delivered as accurate a description of hell as could be calculated" (Blue Like Jazz, p. 172).
Thus, he describes a "hell" without fire or torment, and a "hell" that has an end.

The wizard Calen lives in a remote part of a strange and magical land where he works day and night to improve his magical abilities. One day he tried to perfect a new recipe for a magical potion. But the day was long and tiring and he was so exhausted that he accidentally mixed the wrong ingredient into the potion. You can guess what happened next: his entire laboratory was destroyed in a huge explosion. But Calen is a very ambitious wizard — he quickly recovered from the shock and set off on a quest to rebuild his laboratory. His journey in search of new equipment and ingredients will carry him to beautiful, mysterious places. It's not easy, though: mean little gnomes keep trying to stop him in more than 100 exciting match-3 levels — are you up to the challenge? A lovingly-drawn game that's fun for young and old alike!

Rams can't be questioned for boldness, but was big trade the right trade

By Mark Whicker | MWhicker@scng.com | Daily News
PUBLISHED: April 17, 2016 at 9:31 p.m. | UPDATED: August 28, 2017 at 6:16 a.m.
Either Carson Wentz or Jared Goff will be quarterbacking the Rams when they move into their new Inglewood pleasure dome in 2019.
If not, neither Les Snead nor Jeff Fisher will be running them.
The Rams showed on Wednesday that they believe in the hope of audacity. They got the first pick in the entire NFL draft from Tennessee. In exchange, they gave up the 15th pick in the first round, plus two second-round picks, plus a third, plus next year's No. 1 and next year's third.
The Titans will now pick 15th, 33rd, 43rd, 45th, 64th and 76th. The Rams will take their man on Thursday night, April 28. Friday will be an excellent day for them to call the cable guy, or attend to some landscaping, because they have nothing planned. Their next pick is the 110th, on Saturday.
And everything about the Rams will be about the quarterback.
It's like they never left.
A quarterback good enough to lead off the draft is often worth it. Think Peyton Manning, Matthew Stafford, Cam Newton, Matt Ryan, Andrew Luck and (apparently) Jameis Winston.
But not always. Six years ago the Rams were in that position and took Sam Bradford. He never made a Pro Bowl. The next six picks did: Ndamukong Suh, Gerald McCoy, Trent Williams, Eric Berry, Russell Okung and Joe Haden. Later in the first round came Jason Pierre-Paul, Earl Thomas, Demaryus Thomas and Dez Bryant.
This year's 1-2 picks appear to be Wentz, from North Dakota State, and Goff, who was almost exclusively a shotgun-spread quarterback at Cal. They will not go 1-2 because they are the first- and second-best players in the draft. They will go 1-2 because NFL tongues are hanging out for a quarterback. Value is not defined by ability but demand.
While Winston and Marcus Mariota obviously deserved to top the 2015 draft, Wentz and Goff only recently barged up the draft boards. They're ready to name a guitar after new Titans GM Jon Robinson in Nashville. Since they already had Mariota, they could build the rest of the team with DeMarco Murray and the CARE package that arrives from L.A.
You do not win without a quarterback. That is indisputable. But you can very easily lose with a top-pick quarterback.
Tennessee's last highly-drafted QB was Jake Locker, No. 8 in 2011. The guy who cleaned up behind him was veteran Matt Hasselbeck, whom Seattle took with the 187th pick in 1998.
Had the Rams held on to the 15th pick this year and all the others, they would have had an excellent shot at Paxton Lynch of Memphis. He wouldn't be ready to play in 2016, true, but no one can assume Goff and Wentz will be.
• Bonsignore: Rams wisely overpay in bold move for No. 1
Then the Rams could have kept building inventory. The picks they gave up are not trivial. The Chargers got receiver Keenan Allen with a 76th pick, and the Lions got linebacker DeAndre Levy the same way. The Bears got receiver Alshon Jeffrey with the 45th pick.
Quarterbacks can also be found in that nether world. Brett Favre (33rd), Andy Dalton (35th), Colin Kaepernick (36th) Derek Carr (36th), Kordell Stewart (60th), Russell Wilson (75th), Rich Gannon (98th), Kirk Cousins (102th), Dave Garrard (108th), Stan Humphries (159th) and, of course, Tom Brady (199th) are on that list. All except Carr have quarterbacked playoff games and six started Super Bowls.
Some think the 2016 bargain is Stanford's Kevin Hogan, who is 6-foot-3, 23 years old, undeniably athletic, worked in an NFL-based system, won three Pac-12 titles and two Rose Bowls, and was 16-6 against Top 25 teams. The Rams would have had several shots at him, had they saved those picks.
The shoot-the-moon move makes sense only if you assume the Rams have every other base covered. But they lost cornerback Janoris Jenkins (Giants) and free safety Rodney McLeod (Philadelphia) to free agency. They need a tight end and some receivers, and more offensive line depth wouldn't hurt. They are not "one quarterback away" from anything, not yet.
Wentz or Goff will get a boost from the presence of Todd Gurley, the same way Minnesota's Teddy Bridgewater has profited from Adrian Peterson, and so will a defense that was on the field far too often in 2015.
You can argue it both ways, but please tell us it was an honest football decision, and not just a delusional star-search project. The fans don't need a splash, not even in drought conditions. It's been 22 years. They need a franchise as patient as they were.

Three facts
1. Case Keenum had the highest QB rating of any St. Louis signal-caller, at 87.8. The NFL leader was Russell Wilson, at 110.1.
2. NFL.com analyst Mike Mayock has Carson Wentz rated No. 1 among quarterback draftees, followed by Jared Goff and Paxton Lynch.
3. Walter Football has two quarterbacks among the top three prospects in the 2017 draft: Clemson's DeShaun Watson (first) and Miami's Brad Kaaya (third).

What the "Affordable Health Care for America Act," HR 3962, Actually Says
John David Lewis November 20, 2009 PDF In Winter 2009
What does the bill recently passed by the U.S. House of Representatives, HR3962, short-titled the ''Affordable Health Care for America Act," actually say about major health-care issues? I here pose a few commonsense questions, cite some relevant passages, and offer a few brief comments. (The bill is available at http://docs.house.gov/rules/health/111_ahcaa.pdf.)
This bill is 1,990 pages of mind-numbing legalese. It will reach deeply into federal and state regulations and laws, on a scale that will require years for experts to interpret. It will establish institutions that will be effectively irreversible. It will grant arbitrary powers to bureaucrats, who will have to interpret and enforce its dictates. A full analysis of its impact would require a commentary at least as long as the bill itself. American citizens cannot be expected to read and understand such legislation. But they should be aware that this is the nature of the laws being written by their (alleged) representatives in Washington.
I have only touched on pieces of the bill here. I have not considered the establishment of (1) the "Health Choices Commissioner" and the associated bureaucracy; (2) the "Health Insurance Exchange," (a government-mandated insurance scheme to control all insurance activity); (3) the so-called "Public Health Insurance Option," or similar provisions. I have not analyzed the more than one hundred new committees, boards, commissions, and bureaucratic institutions that it establishes (but I have listed them below under the section titled Special Note).
This legislation empowers the executive branch, namely the Secretary of Health and Human Services and a "Health Choices Commissioner," to write thousands of pages of regulations, and to force Americans to comply with them. For every line in this bill, many pages of regulations will be written. As a result, the bureaucracy will expand, the final cost will be many times more than the original estimates—and the impact on American medicine will be devastating.
The overall result of this bill, if enacted, will be a complete government takeover of the health-care industry. This cannot be prevented by tweaking the language in the bill. The bill must be rejected in full before we can consider proper reforms to American medicine. . . .

Ebola scare reaches cruise industry: Carnival vessel barred from Mexico and Belize
Full article 5 comments
The Carnival Magic, which authorities in Mexico and Belize have barred from their ports, is now headed back to Texas.
A laboratory technician from the Dallas hospital where a Liberian died of the Ebola virus, and who handled some of his fluid samples for analysis, has been placed in quarantine aboard a cruise ship, the State Department said on Friday.
"The employee did not have direct contact with the since deceased Ebola patient, but may have had contact with clinical specimens collected from him," State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said in a communiqué.
From Mexico an official said that the person in isolation is a woman who shows no symptoms of the disease.
Psaki said that "the individual was out of the country before being notified of CDC's updated requirements for active monitoring."
The person had already left the United States when the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC, increased security measures for medical workers. When the individual left on the cruise ship on Oct. 12, the CDC only required that employees monitor themselves for any symptoms that might arise.
"The employee has been self-monitoring, including daily temperature checks, since October 6, and has not had a fever or demonstrated any symptoms of illness. It has been 19 days since the passenger may have processed the since deceased patient's fluid samples," the spokeswoman said.
Psaki said the cruise line "has actively supported CDC's efforts to speak with the individual, whom the cruise ship's medical doctor has monitored and confirmed was in good health."
"Following this examination, the hospital employee and traveling partner have voluntarily remained isolated in a cabin," Psaki said, adding that the authorities are working to bring them safely back to the United States "out of an abundance of caution."
The first case of Ebola to be diagnosed on American soil was the Liberian citizen Thomas Eric Duncan, who contracted the virus in his own West African country and was treated at the Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas, where he died of the disease on Oct. 8.
Two nurses who were in contact with him have contracted the virus and are currently receiving an experimental treatment at two other U.S. medical centers.

Briton
We are trying our best, but with nothing from china or Russia, and most of the world,
one has to wonder where all our hard desperate work , trying to save these people is going,
The world may yet regret sitting on their bums..
Briton...they are not trying to save these people...
A clue is they are deploying troops...
...isolate and contain...and if there is no containing....
guess...
The plague rises ?
no wonder these preppers are growing in mass..

What Can We Learn From 77-Year-Old Mouse Fur?
Following in the footsteps of a legendary BC naturalist.
Published December 15, 2016, By Nancy Shackelford
Correspondence by Ian McTaggart-Cowan from his 1939 expedition to the BC Central Coast. Notes were photographed by Nancy Shackelford with permission at the Royal BC Museum Archives under catalogue number GR-0111.3.2
In the summer of 1939, legendary British Columbian naturalist Ian McTaggart-Cowan boarded the MV Seabird with his wife and two close colleagues, and set off from Namu, a small coastal community about 450 kilometers northwest of Vancouver. The crew sailed the Inside Passage through the remote BC Central Coast, and conducted the first systematic surveys to describe the diversity of marine birds and small mammals. Now, 80 years later, a team of scientists is retracing their steps.
As part of the collaborative 100 Islands Project, scientists from the Hakai Institute, University of Victoria, and Simon Fraser University are aiming to catalog the biodiversity on the islands—the plants, invertebrates, mammals, and birds. Like the 1939 expedition, present-day researchers work long hours in pouring rain or the occasional glorious sunshine, observing the ecology of creatures living on these isolated islands. Their work delves deep into our fundamental understanding of what drives ecological patterns on islands.
In the past, ecology has viewed the ocean surrounding islands as an empty space waiting to be crossed by dispersing species. The reality is that the ocean is far from empty. It is not only a medium through which species can disperse, but also an abundant nutrient source. Seaweeds wash up on beaches. Minks scoop up shellfish. Nearshore plants are fertilized by guano from marine birds, also known as avian poop. Despite the strong ties between ocean and islands, how the nutrients from the ocean influence and interact with species on coastal islands is relatively unknown.
That's where the 100 Islands Project comes in. In one study, University of Victoria master's student Katie Davidson is using chemical analysis to trace how nutrients that originated in the oceans are transferred to mice that live along the shoreline. By taking small hair samples from the mice, Davidson is testing how reliant each animal is on ocean-based food sources, such as the tiny creatures that thrive on washed-up kelp. And thanks to the fastidious notes and collections of McTaggart-Cowan, she can also test whether the marine-terrestrial relationship has shifted over the last 80 years.

Working with Dr. Gavin Hanke, the curator of vertebrate zoology at the Royal BC Museum, Davidson is taking hair samples from McTaggart-Cowan's original mammal collections. From chemical differences between the hair of modern-day mice and mice from the 1940s, scientists may elucidate any consequences of the dramatic changes that have occurred in global climate conditions, ocean temperatures, and marine communities over that time.
Chris Darimont, who leads the mammal team on the 100 Islands Project, remembers sharing tea and stories with McTaggart-Cowan before he passed away in 2010.
"He could instantly bring us back to Goose Archipelago [on the BC Central Coast] in the 1940s, remembering exactly where the heron rookery was, or what watersheds on Hunter Island had evidence of wolf dens," says Darimont, a Hakai-Raincoast professor at the University of Victoria.
Experiences like these, coupled with the tireless efforts of museums to maintain historical collections and the millennia of observations by the area's Heiltsuk and Wuikinuxv Nations, tie together generations of coastal research. By comparing baselines established by early expeditions, present-day scientists can understand long-term coastal patterns, even as the world continues to change around us.

Racialized populations community of interest
About Project | Project Contact
The Racialized Populations and Mental Health and Addictions community of interest is a provincial forum for knowledge exchange and collaborative knowledge creation focused on issues related to racialized populations and mental health and addictions.
We began working together in 2012, with a project exploring how racialized individuals and communities in Ontario use hospital emergency departments for mental health and addictions related reasons.
In 2014, we explored socio-demographic data collection via the Ontario Common Assessment of Need (OCAN). We held a think tank in 2015 to explore the potential of the tool for advancing equity in the mental health system.
Currently, the COI is focusing on criminal court diversion programs and practices, and examining how racialized populations are being served. This involves focusing on formal mental health diversion programs as well as informal diversion practices for racialized persons with mental health and addictions issues in the criminal justice system.

A Modern Faustian Tale in a Little Depth
I don't think the movie's definition of 'reborn' is exactly what the popular meaning has in mind. Nevertheless, it's a heckuva sci-fi movie from beginning to end. Frankenheimer pulls out all the stops in his camera work. The angles and effects are weird even for the close-ups, while that hectic bacchanal still has me panting for breath. We're kept off balance the whole time by those angles, which is as it should be. The style fits the material perfectly.
Poor Arthur (Randolph). He's a dutiful husband and breadwinner, but he's also terminally bored with his life and wife. It seems he's grown old, even at middle-age. So, now he's ready for the big change the Company provides for a price. Still, he should have known when he signed up that he was in for the wrong kind of rebirth. After all, he first has to go through an infernal steam cloud at the pants presser, then through carcass-strewn meat lockers in a slaughterhouse. It's all this just to get to the Company offices. That should have told him that the price of a new identity would be more hellish than the 30,000 in dollars.
But then, what guy wouldn't trade a 45-year old tired mug for Rock Hudson's handsome features and a new chance at life, especially the swinging kind. Okay, so maybe there's something sinister behind the smiling bureaucrats of The Company, especially when Mr. Ruby (Corey) scarfs down the fleshy edibles. But not to worry, they'll fake his death with some poor soul's cadaver and his unexciting former life will be left behind for good.
So, after a lot of bloody plastic surgery, Arthur gets his new chance with a handsome new face, reborn now as Tony Wilson (Hudson). Plus he gets to move from his boring old house in the suburbs to where else but swinging Malibu, CA. The Company, it seems, fixes up everything. Then there's that adoring young playmate to help (Jens) him settle in. She's sure a long way from the drab wife he's left behind. Okay, maybe there's something odd about John (Addy), the hovering house servant of his beach cottage. Nonetheless, he waits on Tony's every need, and now Tony can live life as a king.
And get a load of those merry- making hippies snaking up the canyon to their wine-soaked retreat that Nora's roped him into. Trouble is you can change a person outwardly, but it's not so easy inwardly. Besides, as Arthur, Tony has a whole lifetime of habits and hang-ups to overcome. So now he just sort of stands there, uptight, amid all the naked wine-stomping bodies. A real party-pooper until playmate Nora strong-arms him into drunken abandon. Now he's got what he thinks he wants, a new swinging life to replace the glum old businessman. At last, life is good, but is it.
I'm not surprised the film has a big cult following. On the whole, it's that good. The cast is superb, even Hudson who I suspect gives a career performance. That's along with the Walton's Will Geer as the kindly old head of The Company, his perpetual smile a mask for what turns out to be a Faustian bargain. To me, the movie's final third lacks the kind of clarity that's gone before. But maybe that's as it should be. That way the sinister undercurrents remain clouded in their exact depths.
It appears the plot pivots at this point on the question of personal choice, certainly a defining feature of personal fulfillment. But without giving away too much, it seems The Company has engineered everything, right down to guaranteed unhappiness. So the Company program perhaps amounts to a recycling of clients through pre-planned stages that Tony too must go through. The movie doesn't spell out what The Company is really up to; instead, we have to piece things together. I guess my only gripe is with the ending. Frankly, the kicking and screaming may raise the viewer's dread-level, but I think the ending should come as a sudden surprise with kindly old Will Geer looking on.
Nonetheless, the movie appears to be an original reworking of the Faustian legend of selling one's soul. But whether taken as a Faustian parable on middle- class discontent or not, it's still a riveting 100-minutes.

Rock Hudson got drunk for real for the scene in which he gets drunk at a party.
Man in Station: Mr. Hamilton?
Arthur Hamilton: Yes?
When Tony is on the airplane on his way to Malibu he is offered a pillow which he places behind his head. The pillow then disappears and reappears in the next few seconds.
The re-released version in 1996 (originally debuting on laserdisc) restores various shots of nudity to the "orgy" sequence involving crushing wine grapes. This was how John Frankenheimer originally shot the scene but the MPAA refused to allow the nudity to pass so the theatrical release was re-edited to remove all nude shots.

HIV/AIDS infection rate drops in Ethiopia
http://ethiopiaforums.com/ethioforum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=3990
Posted: 29 Mar 2014 20:35

World Bulletin / News Desk
The HIV/AIDS prevalence rate has drastically dropped in Ethiopia in 2013, an Ethiopian official said Saturday.
"Currently, 734,000 people are living with HIV in the country," Asfaw Degefu, the public relation chief of the federal HIV/AIDS Prevention and Control Office (HAPCO), told Anadolu Agency.
Degefu said that HIV prevalence rate in Ethiopia dropped from 2.1 percent to 1.3 percent in 2013.
"The fall in prevalence resulted from the government-led multi-sectoral HIV/AIDS prevention activities," he said.
Over 316,000 Ethiopians living with HIV benefit from anti-retroviral therapy (ART), which the government provides free of charge.
The HAPCO official said that Ethiopia had the highest number of HIV/AIDS infection a decade ago.
"But the rate of HIV infection among adults has been reduced by 90 percent between 2001 and 2011," he added.
Degefu said that Voluntary Counseling and Testing (VCT) and ART services are expanding across the country.
"There were only three ART centers in 2001 but the number has now increased to 838 and VCT rose to 2896 from 638," he added.
Over 90 million condoms are sold annually across the Horn of Africa nation.
A recent government document has found that comprehensive knowledge of AIDS is uncommon in Ethiopia.
According to the document, some 90 percent of women and 32 percent of men have comprehensive knowledge of transmission and prevention methods of HIV.
According to Degefu, Ethiopia employs over 38,000 health agents in rural areas to prevent HIV, Malaria and TB.
"Harmful traditional practices, multiple sex partners, unsafe sex and mother- to- child HIV transmission are the main causes for the spread of HIV," he said.
HIV was first reported in Ethiopia in 1984.

Driving while black can be fatal in 21st century America.
(2018) Drama (20th Century Fox) Amandla Stenberg, Regina Hall, Russell Hornsby, Anthony Mackie, Issa Rae, Common, Algee Smith, Sabrina Carpenter, K.J. Apa, Dominique Fishback, Lamar Johnson, TJ Wright, Megan Lawless, Rhonda Johnson Dents, Tony Vaughn, Marcia Wright, Al Mitchell, Karan Kendrick, Jevon Johnson, Mike Stoudt, Tye Claybrook Jr., Andrene Ward-Hammond. Directed by George Tillman Jr.
In the latter years of the 20-teens, it was fashionable for those of white privilege to say that race relations had markedly improved. After all, blacks can vote now, can't they? They can use the same bathrooms as white people, can't they? They're not in chains anymore, are they?
The chains that African-Americans wear in the 21st century are much more subtle than iron but just as binding and just as evil. We can see those shackles so clearly in this adaptation of a best-selling young adult novel.
Starr Carter (Stenberg) is a bright, vivacious 16-year-old African-American girl who lives in Garden Heights, a predominantly black working-class neighborhood. Her father Maverick (Hornsby) is a former activist who had a bad run a few years ago and ended up doing jail time as a gang member for local gang leader King (Mackie). He currently owns a corner grocery market in the Heights; Starr's mother (King), however, wants her babies to escape the Hood and to that end she has sent Starr, her brother Seven (Johnson) and younger sister Sekani (TJ Wright) to Williamson Prep, an upper-crust private school which is mostly white.
Starr exists in two different worlds which she is able to compartmentalize at first. However, while being driven home from a party by her childhood friend Khalil (Smith), they are pulled over by a white cop for no apparent reason. Although Starr begs Khalil to keep his hands on the dashboard and to obey every command given him by the obviously nervous patrolman, Khalil adopts a more confrontational attitude and when he reaches for a hairbrush inside the car, the panicked cop shoots him dead.
The shooting of another unarmed black youth puts the community into an uproar. Starr, the only eyewitness, is terrified if she comes forward to testify in front of the grand children that she and her family will be targeted by the police. Equally real is King's desire that Starr not testify because it would come out that Khalil worked for King as a drug dealer. This is not information King is particularly eager to see go public.
Starr is caught in the center of a ticking time bomb. On the one hand, she wants to honor Khalil's memory by standing up for him; on the other hand, she wants to protect her family. Doing the right thing never seemed so hard.
The movie captures the flavor of the African-American community in a way that makes it seem almost idyllic, from the ranks of the community to the warmth of family. It also doesn't shy away from portraying the violence in the community; a party is interrupted by gunshots, and King in a particularly vicious move orders a store to be firebombed with children inside.
Still, the frustration of the black community is very palpable and very understandable from the very first scene, in which Maverick explains to his children how to survive an encounter with the police. This is not a talk white parents need to have with their kids but it is tragically all-too-common in African-American homes. The script makes no bones about the conditions that have created this situation.
The star here is Starr, or rather, Amandla Stenberg who is absolutely riveting. She gives Starr an inner strength that shows through even when she's full of doubt. Starr has a playful side that Stenberg captures nicely, but also a vulnerable side. Starr is one of the most nuanced characters to come out of literature in the past decade, and she's one of the most nuanced characters to come out of the movies as well, thanks largely to Stenberg. Hornsby also gets points for a strong performance as Maverick.
The movie stumbles a bit in its occasional strident tone; not that it's unjustified, mind you, but it can be preachy in places. The ending is a little bit out there, and there are a few plot contrivances that felt a little forced. It also is a fairly long movie which might not sit well with its target audience. However, if you give this film a chance you will find it might just strike a powerful chord in you. That is, unless you're one of those folks who think that African-Americans should be grateful for the strides they've made over the past sixty years. Then again, those folks are the least likely to want to see a movie like this.
REASONS TO SEE: Stenberg shows real strength in her performance. Captures the positives of African-American culture; the sense of community and family, for example.
REASONS TO AVOID: Sometimes grows overly strident in its message (although that is somewhat understandable).
FAMILY VALUES: This is definitely adult, thematically speaking. There is also quite a bit of profanity, some violence and drug references.
TRIVIAL PURSUIT: Screenwriter Audrey Wells died of cancer the day before the film was released, 13 days before the national wide release.
