We've been preaching to the ugly shoe choir for quite some time now, and it seems the editors over at Vogue have decided to join us. While we've been sitting pretty (and comfy!) in our low-heeled booties, Zara flats, and, yes, even Birkenstocks (this one's for you, Connie!), they've been teetering around in sky-high Louboutins.
But, the tables have turned, and Voguettes are ready to proclaim their love for the ultimate hippie kicks. In a new piece, "Pretty Ugly: Why Vogue Girls Have Fallen for the Birkenstock," the mag's editors come clean. They've all secretly sported the sandals around the house, but now are letting their Birks out into the world. (Of course, it probably is no coincidence that the latest Céline show outfitted models in Phoebe Philo's own interpretation of the leather shoes). However the editors are pairing their Birkenstocks — with girly frocks, tailored pants, or '90s-era Kate Moss cropped tops and jeans — our perennial favorites are having a real moment over at Four Times Square.

Q: Maven project source encoding does not work I am having a Maven-Project which is configured using the following properties:
<properties>
    <maven.compiler.source>1.7</maven.compiler.source>
    <maven.compiler.target>1.7</maven.compiler.target>

    <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
    <project.reporting.outputEncoding>UTF-8</project.reporting.outputEncoding>
</properties>

On my machine everything works fine with these settings. However, on another machine, when I check it out and try to build it using mvn install the compiler errors unmappable character for encoding ASCII:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:2.0.2:compile (default-compile) on project scuttle: Compilation failure: Compilation failure:
[ERROR] /export/local-1/julian-downloads/scuttle/src/main/java/de/fu/mi/scuttle/handlers/sakai/SakaiVV.java:[99,39] error: unmappable character for encoding ASCII
[ERROR]
[ERROR] /export/local-1/julian-downloads/scuttle/src/main/java/de/fu/mi/scuttle/handlers/sakai/SakaiVV.java:[99,40] error: unmappable character for encoding ASCII

[ERROR] /export/local-1/julian-downloads/scuttle/src/main/java/de/fu/mi/scuttle/domain/sakai/SakvvTermin.java:[66,31] error: unmappable character for encoding ASCII

I've already tried running mvn with -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 but that did not help. $LC_CTYPE reports UTF-8.
What can I do?
You can see the complete pom file here: https://github.com/scravy/scuttle/blob/master/pom.xml

A: You have all the right settings in your pom, so that's good. Verify your IDE (and the others used by your team if applicable) is configured for UTF-8.
Next, clean out your local .m2 repository and run your build again. It might be possible one of your transitive dependencies wasn't compiled with the right encoding. But you may have the "right" version in your .m2 that makes everything OK while the same version doesn't exist on the other machine.
Good luck! I know how annoying this stuff can be.

A: In the end the comment by khmarbaise helped me find a solution:
I configured the compiler plugin and specified the source encoding there, now everything works everywhere:
<build>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>2.3.2</version>
      <configuration>
        <source>1.7</source>
        <target>1.7</target>
        <encoding>UTF-8</encoding>
      </configuration>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>

A: Instead of setting maven opts, set new environmental variable - JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS = -Dfile.encoding=UTF8

D-Day is fast approaching. Sunday is "Decision Day" or national candidate's reply date, and that means high school seniors need to notify one college of their intention to attend and submit a deposit. Missing this deadline can cost you your spot for next year.
1. The tour guide was really good and made everybody want to come. Remember, that's their job!
2. The website made the campus look so appealing and the brochure has beautiful pictures. Ditto from No. 1. Remember, these are all marketing tools, Frisbee on the quad? It's everywhere!
3. The gym has a climbing wall. Colleges are struggling to "keep up with the Joneses," at least as far as amenities. Climbing walls are at almost every college, and I've rarely seen anyone using them.
4. Prestige. The honor of putting the college sticker on the rear windshield does not mean it's necessarily the right place to spend your next four years. Go beyond the brand name.
5. Your friends are headed there. This could be a great time to step out from your circle and be more independent. Take a risk if it feels right.
6. Your boyfriend/girlfriend is going there. More relationships crash and burn because teenage couples think they must be on the same campus to keep a relationship alive. It's tough, but try to look at this with a more objective perspective.
7. It's the cheapest. If that is the only factor in its favor, then you really haven't done your homework.
8. It's the most expensive. Expensive does not always equate with higher quality.
9. It has a good football team. Students frequently get caught up in the contagious school spirit and forget that there are only just a handful or two of home games each year.
10. They are ranked "No. 1 Party School." No explanation needed.
Once you've made your decision, the honorable thing to do is to politely notify all the other colleges that accepted you and tell them that you have decided to go elsewhere. Think of friends who have been wait-listed. Be careful not to be snotty. You may find yourself interested in transferring, and it would be silly to burn any bridges. It is perfectly acceptable to send an e-mail with an update on your final decision.
While the decision-making can be tough, understand that it is considered unethical to make deposits at two or more schools. Students often think it is "no big deal" and share their plans at school. That scuttlebutt can make its way to college admissions offices. Colleges can and do rescind offers of admission if they find out about double-depositing.

While Friday put an end to crude's daily winning streak due to a return of fears that the global economy will weaken and American production is skyrocketing, USA oil ended the week 4.1 percent higher, and Brent was up 1.9 percent.
Goldman said, "current fundamentals will tighten physical markets further", driving up spot Brent crude futures above 70 dollars per barrel "as supply losses continue (and) demand growth beats low consensus expectations".
United States crude oil production also dipped, falling by 100,000 barrels per day (bpd) to 12 million bpd.
OPEC, Russia and other non-OPEC producers, an alliance known as OPEC+, are reducing output by 1.2 million bpd from January 1 for six months.
"Tighter global inventories from OPEC-led supply cuts and". The group will discuss this at a meeting in April, although top exporter Saudi Arabia has said a decision may not be made until another gathering in June.
First and foremost is the cut in production agreed to by OPEC and some non-OPEC countries, which also equals 1.2 million barrels a day.
The bulk of OPEC's cuts in February came from Venezuela, which is facing an economic and political crisis and is now subject to USA oil sanctions.
Jackson called TMZ "liars", and had tweeted a few eye-rolling emojis before she directly called out the outlet for their report. She also tweeted a lot of question marks, in apparent disbelief over what could be called fake news, with an unamused emoji.
Despite the new curbs, market indicators followed by Opec will prolong concerns about excess supply.
IEA President Fatih Birol, whose remarks were included in the report, said that there might be extraordinary changes in the global oil industry in the future and that the US would continue to influence the global oil market over this five-year period. The newspaper article also states that USA energy gains will have a price for the environment and that Change.org has described the situation as a "climate disaster".
Meanwhile, US sanctions have helped slash output from OPEC members Venezuela and Iran.
Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak will not attend a monitoring panel of Opec and non-Opec oil-producing countries scheduled for Monday in Baku, two sources familiar with his plans told Reuters.
In 2019, U.S. seaborne oil trade will move into surplus with net exports rising to almost 4 million bpd by 2024.
Iraq exported on average around 3.6 million bpd in January-February, and 3.7 million in December.
Manziel has signed the AAF's standard player agreement, according to a report by ESPN's Adam Schefter . The 2012 Heisman Trophy victor at Texas A&M had his contract with the CFL terminated this offseason.
The device, which will have an Exynos 9820 or Snapdragon 855 processor, will be paired with up to 12GB of RAM. Their AMOLED panels have in fact been perforated using high-tech laser-cutting techniques to allow for this.
But the world No 2 pulled out of the tournament due to a knee injury sustained in his quarter-final clash with Karen Khachanov . Rafael Nadal speaks to the media after withdrawing from his semi-final match against Roger Federer .
Success would be a remarkable turnaround for May, whose authority has been shredded by a series of defeats in Parliament. Prime Minister Theresa May will try to persuade MPs for a third time to back her Brexit deal over the coming days.
Benfica or Frankfurt will first host Slavia Prague or Chelsea in the second semi. And second, it means that Napoli are in the final, and I am happy.
Mrs May agreed but insisted her deal is a "good deal" and she wants the United Kingdom to leave with a good deal. May responded: "The deal that he's proposing has been rejected several times by this house".
At least 49 people have been killed and 48 injured in shootings at Masjid Al Noor and the Linwood Masjid mosques in Christchurch. CTV News Public Safety Analyst Chris Lewis said the gunman's apparent livestream is a worrisome aspect of the attack.
Starting with games later this month, mound visits will be decreased from six to five and commercial breaks will be shortened. Baseball enthusiasts will notice some major changes when they watch their favorite teams play this year.
Speaking at his Friday morning press conference, Solskjaer said , via the club's official app: "We're still getting players back". With an worldwide break meaning it will be two weeks before he gets his players back for a tricky Premier League clash vs.
They included Asif Shaikh, 44, who said he was among more than 100 people at the Al Noor mosque when the attacker came in. Two other people were in custody and police said they were seeking to understand whether they were involved in any way.

One of the biggest shopping days of the year (but, spoiler alert: not necessarily the 'biggest') is the day after Thanksgiving, this year on November 23rd. Of course, it's Black Friday.
Financial market crashes in the U.S.
Black Friday may have actually started being known just as negatively. Philadelphia police would anticipate unruly crowds between Thanksgiving on Thursday and the annual Army-Navy football game on Saturday – too many tourists and shoppers, resulting in long overtime hours for those on patrol.
Small Business Saturday was an idea created by a large credit card offeror in 2010, to help smaller, local businesses gain exposure and to have shoppers look local for some of their holiday shopping needs. This year the effort falls on Saturday, November 24th.
Dating back to 2005, Cyber Monday has been chosen to capitalize on the digital shopping trend. Now that nearly all retailers offer an online option for shopping, special deals drive consumers online; Cyber Monday actually bested Black Friday in 2017 as the largest sales day of the year: $6.6 billion in purchases were spent on Cyber Monday, compared with $5 billion on Black Friday.
Green Monday occurs on the second Monday of December – this year, Monday, December 10th. It is the biggest online shopping day in December. It falls on the second Monday of the month, and, in theory, it serves as a countdown to the number of days left prior to Christmas. This year, that number will be 15, technically more than two weeks out.
No matter what, there will be ample time and scores of great sales to complete your gift list for the ones you love. In fact, it's predicted each American will spend an average of $1,007.24 over the holidays on gifts, food, decorations, and deals. Wow!
See something that strikes your fancy, though? A deal that isn't necessarily a gift but one too good to pass up? Go for it. There should be no guilt in rewarding yourself somewhat as you shop.
That's where Shop Your Way really can help – not only do they aggregate tons of deals with online stores, service partners, and more – but they offer you CASHBACK in points on nearly everything purchased through shopyourway.com. There's even a free Personal Shopper to help you survive the craziness.
So whether you redeem your well-deserved rewards this holiday season or wait until the new year for that special 'me-item,' you're smart to be rewarded on all that holiday shopping. It's Life. Rewarded.
Thanksgiving is my favorite of all the holidays & Sears is my favorite store for the holidays. Sears is such a big part of my fondest memories of all the holidays I spent with my dad before he passed. Sears is the last place I spent with him. It was the only place my Dad would go to purchase appliances or anything other then groceries. Thank You Sears for being a huge part of my life! You are and forever will be the only place I will go for anything I need in my home!! Wishing you & yours a blessed holiday!


Summer is still not over, my friends, regardless of the near fall-like temperatures we experienced last week. There are still plenty of daylight hours to enjoy the sun's rays and sport some brightly coloured apparel such as the newest styles from the Crocs 2013 summer collection. With vibrant colours and funky designs, it's easy to take a bold bite out of summer.
The day we were packing our suitcase for a family blogger retreat at The Westin Trillium House in Blue Mountain, a package arrived just in time with my son's sample pair of Crocs Kids' Micah II Sandals. These multi-sport, lightweight and cushioning sandals were perfect for our fun-filled agenda at the resort. Easy to put on with a stretchy neoprene upper for a comfortable and secure fit, my son's feet were splash-ready as we made our way to the Plunge! Aquatic Centre.
Also included in our package was a pair of Crocs Keeley Sandals in a lovely colour combination of dahlia and aqua. Accented with a fixed floral charm, these sandals have an adjustable closure to provide a secure fit and are lightweight. There are also additional Jibbitz charm holes to let your child add a personal touch.
Available in children's sizes from size 4 to size 13, the Keeley sandal currently retails on Crocs.ca for $34.99.
Right now, there are pages and pages of footwear and accessories on sale at Crocs.ca, including the Micah II sandal featured above. They are currently on sale for $34.99.
It's amazing the amount of styles they have!
It is! I love the colour selection, too.
I think the sandals are adorable, too. I gave them to my niece and can't wait to see them on her tiny feet!
I just wanted to tell you your blog is fabulous!
I never did see the Croc sandals near where I live.. I'll be sure to be keeping my eye out again for them. My girls love their crocs.

Plane Pinged Satellite for 5 Hours
Updated Apr. 14, 2017 4:39PM ET / Published Mar. 13, 2014 6:15PM ET

Well this is interesting. People briefed on the matter said on Thursday that the missing Malaysian Airlines plane "pinged" its location and altitude repeatedly to satellites for five hours after it fell off radar. The final ping was sent from cruising altitude, though officials and others did not disclose its specific path. But if the plane was in the air for those five hours, it could mean that it is 2,200 miles from its last confirmed position over the Gulf of Thailand. Also on Thursday, two American officials said the U.S. believes that the plane's data reporting system was stopped at 1:07 a.m., while the location and altitude transmitter stopped at 1:21 a.m. This spaced out communication shutdown could indicate a deliberate act.

Robert Evans: Life is suite
"You don't know me," said the great-looking blonde in the wraparound fur, "but I know you."
"You know something?" said Robert Evans, smiling "You're absolutely right."
"All right, then -- who am I?"
Evans frowned as if he'd missed a beat. "... Uh," he said, "that I don't know you."
"But you're Bob Evans!"
"Now there you're right," Evans said.
"That's what I said," said the blonde. "We're going over to the Pump Room right now, if you happen to be going over to the Pump Room later."
"I'm having dinner here," Evans said. "Like you to meet Roger Ebert. We're doing an interview."
The great-looking blonde in the wraparound fur turned and regarded me. "--'o," she said.
She turned back to Evans. "The Pump Room," she said. "Got ya," said Evans.
The blonde paused on the edge of a dramatic exit.
"You still don't know who I am, do you?" she said. "I'm afraid not," Evans confessed.
"Ciao."
She was gone. Evans looked after her. "Christ," he said, "Chicago is as bad as the coast."
"She didn't even go so far," I observed, "as to say she didn't know me. All I got was hello."
"She's probably from out of town," Evans said serenely. "Let's get something to eat."
Of course, if you're a great-looking blonde in a wraparound fur on your way from the Whitehall to the Pump Room, one of the few people you would tarry for (I reflected) would be Robert Evans. He is not only handsome, he is not only charming, he has not only been married to or associated with some of the most beautiful women in the world, but he is also the most successful movie studio head of modern times.
A list of the pictures made at Paramount during his reign sounds like Variety's Top Ten list: "Love Story," "Rosemary's Baby," "Chinatown," both "Godfathers," "Romeo and Juliet," "The Odd Couple." Even his flops became cult pictures, like "Harold and Maude." Even (I reflected further) his real flops became the stuff of legend, like "Paint Your Wagon" and "Darling Lili," which went untold millions over budget.
Yes, a great-looking blonde in a wraparound fur might well tarry a moment on her way to the Pump Room.
"They put me in a great suite," Evans said, as soon as we had been ushered to a table. He sounded as enthusiastic as a Boy Scout at Yellowstone. "It's not the biggest suite I've ever had, but it's the nicest. That's the great thing about working in pictures and going out on tour. You get to stay in hotel suites that you could never afford to pay for yourself."
"That you could never afford to pay for?" I asked, making a mental note that "Love Story" alone had earned $100 million on an investment of $2 million. "Hell, no," said Evans. "I didn't have a piece of any of those big pictures at Paramount. I was the head of production. It was a job, and I got a salary. It was a nice salary, sure -- but let me tell you a story. You take a picture like 'Love Story.' Nobody wanted to do it. I was sold on it because I thought, you know, a man-woman picture, people love them.
"And I thought it was great for Ali McGraw. Three directors turned it down. There wasn't an actor in town who wanted to play the boy. I finally, for Christ's sake, finally went to England and tried to cast Michael York in the goddam thing, with some kind of reasoning that, what the hell, maybe we could make the kid be from England. And York said he'd love to work with me but, frankly, the story was a piece of crap.
"So anyway... " A brief pause to order the endive and watercress salad and before that comes, a double whisky sour, please... "So anyway, the picture makes a hundred million. Arthur Hiller, who finally did direct it, walked off it for a weekend on the grounds it was a soap opera. Hiller made enough off that picture to make him, let's say, independent. I made nothing. Didn't have a piece. 'The Godfather,' 'Rosemary's Baby', the same story.
"Finally I went to the studio, I said I wanted to produce a picture myself. 'Chinatown.' They let me -- this is a board of directors, you understand, that once when I was head of the studio one of the directors advised me to see a barber, my hair was too long, for chrissakes -- make it, and 'Chinatown' is a big hit.
"Right away there's trouble. People on the lot say it's not fair the studio head makes a hit, he's not looking out for the other pictures. We had a picture at the same time, 'The Parallax View,' with Warren Beatty. A good picture, but it did nothing. Warren's a friend of mine, but he's mad at me because 'Chinatown' does business and 'Parallax View' doesn't. I'll tell you something: You can only do so much for a picture, and then either it works at the box office or it doesn't."
Evans surveyed the Whitehall's menu, considering the lobster...the steak Diane, the...lamb chops? The waiter regretted that the watercress she was finished. Boston lettuce was deemed an acceptable substitute.
"So the studio says I can stay as head of production and take a percentage of everything, or quit as head of production and they'll give me a contract to make pictures for them. I take the second choice. I'm a filmmaker. I was sick and tired of the endless board meetings, anyway. But I still don't want to make dozens of movies. Dino De Laurentiis has a dozen pictures going at a time. Ray Stark has eight Elliott Kastner -- Elliott's a friend of mine, but he's got deals going right and left. He makes the deal and not the picture. I wanted to make the picture.
"So since I concentrated on producing, I've made two pictures. 'Marathon Man' and 'Black Sunday.' I know every frame of both pictures by heart. I've stayed with them. I've worked with the directors on every detail -- casting, locations, rewrites. It's paid off. Last week, 'Marathon Man' broke every house record in New York. Lines around the block. We had to put on an extra 3 a.m. show. The crowds were a better show than the movie! It's going to be the same story here in Chicago."
Dinner was served. Evans was talking so fast and I was taking notes so fast that, frankly, I've forgotten what he had. I had the lamb chops. Very nice. I would have recommended them to the great-looking blonde.
"What does the producer do?" Evans asked. "I'll tell you a story. The director of 'Marathon Man' is John Schlesinger, a great director. I have a theory. Hire a man who's made two great pictures and six bad ones, rather than a man who's made eight so--so, pictures. Schlesinger made 'Midnight Cowboy.' He made 'Sunday, Bloody Sunday,' he's ready for another great picture.
"But he refuses to preview a picture. He won't let an audience see his pictures until they're released. I told him: 'This one, we're previewing.' He won't hear of it. I pull producer's rank. We take it to San Jose and San Francisco. In San Jose, the audience is ecstatic. They love the picture. On our way to San Francisco, we agree -- we won't change a single frame.
"In San Francisco, the air conditioning's broken. It's 100 degrees. The audience is in revolt. During the scene where Laurence Olivier is torturing Dustin Hoffman in the dental chair we had forty walkouts. A guy stands up and shouts out, 'How could you perpetrate this outrage?' We're stunned. We go back to the hotel, we don't know whether to jump.
"You know what we did? We made 110 changes in the picture. We re-edited all the violence. In this version, you don't see the drill going into Dustin's teeth. You see Olivier approach him, and then the other guy can't stand to look, he turns his back. In the scene where the two old guys are burning in their cars, now we have one shot of them burning -- not two. Altogether, 110 changes. And now audiences are still excited, they're terrified and thrilled, but we don't get the walkouts. That's one thing a producer does: Protect a picture by bringing out its power without getting so subjective that every last shot has to stay in whether it works or not."
I asked Evans to elaborate on his theory about hiring directors -- that a director should be hired after a flop, not a hit, and that a serious director could be good on genre films like thrillers.
"You have to judge a director by his very best work," Evans said, "and then get it out of him. Schlesinger, I wanted him to do 'Marathon Man' before his last picture, 'The Day of the Locust' was released. He knew I hated it. He asked me why I wanted him. 'Because,' I said, 'with the ability you have with characters and atmosphere, if we harness it to a thriller instead of this vaporous B.S., then we'll have something.'
"Roman Polanski, the same way. I have produced Roman Polanski's only two box office hits -- 'Rosemary's Baby' and 'Chinatown.' The rest has been crap -- except for his little pictures early in his career, of course. After 'Rosemary's Baby.' he makes a picture called 'What?' Pure crap. I tell him so. He gets mad at me, but I'm right. He makes 'Macbeth.' Crap. Then we make 'Chinatown.' A great picture -- and not just because I say so. Now he's a star again. What does he make? 'The Tenant,' Pure unadulterated crap. Now I'd like to work with him again..."
What about John Frankenheimer, who's directing "Black Sunday," the story of an attempt to bomb the Super Bowl with the Goodyear blimp while the President of the United States is in the stands?
"Frankenheimer is a great director who has made pictures that couldn't even be released. He made something called 'The Extraordinary Seaman' -- even the title was wrong. Yet he's capable of brilliant work. Wait until you see 'Black Sunday.' Don't take my word. We showed it to a group of exhibitors, the hardest audience in the world -- after all, it's their money -- and they went up for grabs with enthusiasm.
"But there's another thing. Tension. On 'Chinatown,' Polanski walked off the set. Faye Dunaway slapped him. He said she had to go or he'd go. We have a meeting. She calls him a Polish degenerate. He tells her she's ready for the loony bin. They finished the film not speaking to each other. They communicated through intermediaries.
"At the same time, for different reasons, Jack Nicholson isn't speaking to Polanski either. Jack says the audience won't even know he's in the picture because that crazy sonofabitch Polanski is only shooting the back of his head. Incredible tension -- and the picture's brilliant! On 'Marathon Man,' Dustin Hoffman and John Schlesinger weren't speaking. They were both going to walk off. Now it's a tremendous hit, and they're great friends again."
Dinner was finished.
"Come up to the suite and I'll show you the two--page ad we took in the New York Times," Evans said. "If the critics praise you, spread it all over the paper. It's better they say your picture is good than that you do. Who's gonna believe you, Besides, you gotta see this hotel suite."
The ad was indeed two pages wide and filled with superlatives. The suite was indeed elaborate. It was tastefully furnished, with copies of English antiques, with a tape deck supplied with Elton John and Sir Georg Solti, with a basket of fruit and wine, with real books in a real bookcase, with overstuffed furniture and a deep-pile carpet, with a globe of the world in the 18th Century, with potted palms and color TV and a refrigerator and the obligatory phone in the john.
"Honest," Evans said, "I could never afford to live this way if the picture weren't paying for it. I don't want to get rich. That's why I make a picture every two years, instead of going wild. You want to know something? The year of 'Love Story.' I had to borrow money to pay my taxes."
I sympathized. I knew just how it was. The year of 'Love Story' I had to borrow money to pay my taxes, too. The hour was late and Evans walked me to the elevator.
"You going to the Pump Room?" I asked.
"With a suite like this?"

Bernie Faulkner - "Pot Belly Stove"
Posted By Matt Bjorke on Monday September 25, 2017 at 07:00AM PST 2017-09-23 02:12:44
Check out the world-premiere of this brand new music video and song from the former Exile member!
Iconic musician Bernie Faulkner returns with this great tune, the lead single and title track to his next album Pot Belly Stove. A Kentucky native, Bernie Faulkner returns to his high lonesome roots with Pot Belly Stove, the new album which draws inspiration from the classics of Bluegrass and his own country songs which have always been, as Bernie puts it, "Bluegrass Songs!"
"I was raised on bluegrass," he says. "It's in the air, in the water, in the people. That's almost all they played on WKIC out of Hazard. When you'd pull into the Grandview Drive-In Theater, you'd see Flatt & Scruggs on the concession stand roof, playing through one mic to all the speakers in the cars."
This music vide0 finds Bernie Faulkner in fine form and was filmed at The Smokehouse, an old country store in Monteagle, Tennessee,
Paradestormer Productions (movies: "Texas Road," "Baby Blues" / television: "Making It In Music City" for Amazon Prime) helmed the project, which was directed by Michael Giancana and produced by Faulkner.

One of my automotive bucket list items has always been to go experience the World Time Attack Challenge in Sydney, Australia. I have never been to Australia before but I have always kept an eye on the car community down under. As it turns out, I have quite a bit of support down in Australia as well and people have been asking me to go see what the tuning scene is all about. Now seems to be as good a time as ever to go see WTAC because there are a couple of competitors from North America competing this year and the guys from JDM Yard are hosting their 15-year anniversary event. If The Chronicles was to go down there, we would combine our anniversary events (My 9-year and their 15th) together for a one-time-only Mega Meet down in Sydney!!
I have recently set-up a Patreon page for those who want to help continue to support The Chronicles.
By contributing and show us some support, we would be able to go down there to shoot and film our adventures at the World Time Attack Challenge as well as host a meet along with Yonas Liu from JDM Yard!! We just want to bring car guys together for a good time and allowing us to go down to Australia would be a great way to have an amazing weekend with both time attack and a car meet the following day. Any and everything will help in our adventures. Thank you for the support!!
IF PATREON IS TOO DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO FIGURE OUT, YOU CAN ALSO SUPPORT BY DONATING (SENDING MONEY TO FRIENDS/FAMILY) TO THECHRONICLESMEDIA@YAHOO.COM!!

Dedicated to preserving the history of Fast Draw

Greg Custodio - 2007 CFDA California State Championship
2007 California State Fast Draw Championship
by Greg "Papa G" Custodio
The gunfighters started arriving in Los Banos California on Thursday, October 11, 2007. By Saturday 60 shooters from the United States and Canada were gathered at the Merced County Springs Fairgrounds to write a chapter in Fast Draw history by competing in the very first Cowboy Fast Draw Association titled match in the Golden State, the California State Fast Draw Championship.
Hosted by the Sundowners Single Action Shooting Club and sponsored by the Los Banos Chamber of Commerce the event far exceeded the expectations of all parties involved. What began as a seemingly innocent conversation at a garage sale about a barbeque competition and Fast Draw demonstration evolved into the Henry Miller Wild West Weekend and the California State Fast Draw Championship. The grand finale to a year of special events organized by the city to celebrate their centennial year.
Thanks to donations by local businesses and community groups, the Sundowners and the Golden State Gunslingers were able to convert a livestock show arena into a first class shooting venue for this inaugural gunfight. Ballistic safety netting covered the area above the backstop to insure none of the wax bullets used in the match would escape the shooting area. Local artist Joan Bengtson was commissioned to create murals depicting scenes of old Los Banos as well as the Yokut Indian villages that dotted the landscape in the late 1800's.
The weekend began under dark, cloud filled skies on Friday, October 12, 2007 with the Will "Tawodi" York – "Big John" Whala Shootist Championship. Fans of the big iron who braved the rain were not disappointed. Tawodi and Big John put up a good fight but in the end it came down to Nevada's Cal "Quick Cal" Eilrich versus California's Jon "Trickshot" Wilson. When the gunsmoke cleared Quick Cal held the first place Shootist Championship belt buckle. After the Shootist match members of the Fast Draw community teamed up with members of the Los Banos community in a special Pro-Am match to honor the memory of beloved local resident and veteran Fast Draw competitor, Frank "Lefty" Manzanedo. Proceeds from this event were donated to local charities.
Sunny and warm California weather greeted the shooters on Saturday morning for the first day of the Championship. The fairground was alive with Old West ambiance. The smell of savory food filled the air. Vendor's booths were brimming with colorful wares. Live music was everywhere. High Card Johnny was in the Red Garter Saloon dealing games of chance. Los Banos professional trick roper Hilda Machado was demonstrating her amazing skills and teaching an attentive audience how to spin ropes. Lawmen, cavalry soldiers and cowboys were patrolling the grounds on foot and on horseback. The Buffalo Soldiers mobile museum was a fascinating exhibit chronicling the history of this proud military unit. Even President Abraham Lincoln and a contingency of soldiers from the North and the South were in attendance. Many of the visitors dressed in Old West attire and took part in western themed games and activities.
Looking over the field of fast guns there was no way to predict who would walk away with the Top Gun prizes. Gunfighters from the Cowboy Fast Draw, Ohio Fast Draw, World Fast Draw and Old Time Gunfighters associations united under the CFDA banner to share the sport they love with the people of Los Banos. Amongst them was the 1963 California State Champion Bob Bussinger and Jim VonFeldt the 1974 California State title winner. The sounds of cannon fire from the civil war soldiers' encampment thundered in the distance as the shooters prepared themselves to meet their destiny. CFDA Membership Director Marshall "Mississippi Marshal" Hopper was on the microphone calling the contest; keeping the spectators well informed and entertained with his special brand of southern humor. When the first day of competition was over the shooters joined our sponsors for a good old fashion Saturday Night Social enjoying a chuck wagon dinner and an evening of dancing to lively country western music provided by recording artist Joni Harms.
Sunday started with a special match, "Still Alive at 65". Contestants that were eliminated from the championship on the first day qualified for a second chance at cash prizes if the fastest shot they fired in competition was .650 or higher. Seven shooters made the cut, Hal "Five O" Lagmay, Charles "Chickasaw Warrior" Gilmer, Todd "California Drifter" Springer, Yuly "Bandida" Springer, Tammie "Lefty" Lipscomb, Elyssa "Sweet Pea" Long and Shirley "Wench" Miller. As fate would have it the final shootout paired the California Drifter against his wife Bandida. Many laughs were had at the Drifter's expense as he endured the taunts of his fellow gunfighters to edge out his beautiful bride for the $300.00 top prize. Bandida received a $200.00 second place winner's check to soften the blow of her defeat. Not a bad day for this pair of Golden State Gunslingers at their first competition.
The last day of the Fast Draw Championship ebbed and flowed in dramatic fashion. A match is really interesting to watch when it gets down to the last ten in each division and Sunday was no exception.
The 10 fastest women gunfighters in California on October 14, 2007 were Annette "Miss B. Haven" Coffman, Kathy "Cool Hand Suz" Landsdowne, Treasea "Fannie Mae" Long, Shirley "Legally Loaded" Coffman, Geneva "C21 Peacemaker" Brett, Peggy "Queen of Hearts" Franks, Dinah "Alotta Lead" Eilrich, Yuly "Bandida" Springer, Erika "Hannah Calder" Frisk, and Tammie "Lefty" Lipscomb. The championship round pitted Miss B. Haven against Cool Hand Suz. The first light went off and both shooters hit the target with Miss B. Haven bringing the heat to win the shot. Miss B. Haven got one more win before Cool Hand Suz put a fast one downrange to send a message to the 2007 CFDA World Champion that she wasn't done for the day. Miss B. Haven decided it was indeed her moment in the sun and on the very next draw answered back with the fastest shot of the round capturing the CFDA Women's Division California State Championship title.
The lineup in the Men's Division read like a who's who in the history of Fast Draw. Six of the fast guns in Sunday's Top 10, Cal "Quick Cal" Eilrich, Jim "Ol' Gun" Standridge, George "Sundowner" Narasaki, Ken "Short Keg" Gentry, Francis "The Draw" Carlos, and Jim "Gentleman Jim" VonFeldt were pedigreed veteran Fast Draw Champions each with over 30 years of sixgun experience. Anyone who has shot against them can attest to the fact that they are some of the fastest guns in the CFDA today. The combination of experience and speed makes them the most difficult obstacles to overcome in the quest for Fast Draw glory. Rounding out the field were CFDA Champion ValDean "Trapper Smith" Schroeder, WFDA Area Top Gun James "Arizona Ranger" Barney, WFDA World Thumbing Champion Jon "Trickshot" Wilson, and OTGA Nevada State Champion Gary "Omaha Outlaw" Wagner. It was a see saw battle all the way but one by one shooters were eliminated and the field was narrowed down to the final two. All eyes were on Sundowner James "Arizona Ranger" Barney and his "obstacle" veteran champion Jim "Ol' Gun" Standridge as they stepped up to the firing line to close the show. If either of them were nervous it didn't show. At the first light Ol' Gun put out a fast miss as the Ranger laid in a respectable .436. The Ranger hit another .436 on the next draw but Ol' Gun's light was blinking with a .418 making it one to one. Both men settled into their stance at Marshal's command "shooter set" focusing intensely on the light for the third shot. Seconds later they exploded out of their holsters and it sounded like one shot. Marshal announced the times Arizona Ranger .427, Ol' Gun .430, two to one in favor of the Ranger. It was obvious there isn't any holding back in Ol' Gun's game because he marked the grease with a .410 on his next draw to answer the Ranger's .459 tying it up at two to two. With sudden victory looming over their heads the shooters pulled their smokewagons for the last shot. Marshal announced the time, .416 for the 2007 Men's California State Champion, James Barney.
The gunfighters packed their gear and gathered one last time at the KUBB Country Radio Main Stage for the awards presentation. On Friday they were Fast Draw competitors with their eye on the prize but as they sat in the grandstands waiting for the presentation to start they bantered with each other as old friends.
Their attention was drawn to the stage as "Big John" Whala's booming voice was heard over the PA system announcing the arrival of a special delivery. Escorted by mounted Merced County Sheriff Deputies a Wells Fargo stagecoach arrived at the stage entrance to deliver the Chamber of Commerce prize. Los Banos Mayor Tommy Jones emerged from the stagecoach to supervise the unloading of the Wells Fargo strongbox containing canvas bank bags filled with $7000.00 in gold coins that were to be presented to the winners. Just as soon as the stagecoach left the grounds a masked rider showed up with his sixguns blazing intent on stealing the strongbox. Out of the clear blue sky the Golden State Gunslingers came riding in on stick horses. With hangman's noose in hand they corralled the bandit and took him into custody saving the day!
The heavy sacks of gold made it safely into the hands of their rightful owners and the gunhands said their final goodbyes. The 2007 California State Fast Draw Championship had come to an end. As the last gunfighter rode off into the sunset the town was already buzzing with talk of next years Henry Miller Wild West Weekend. The Sundowners have been invited to host the California State Championship again on October 10 though 12 in 2008 so mark your calendars. You don't want to miss the next one.

Empire of Light Review
Sam Mendes' Empire of Light is impressively shot by Roger Deakins, full of strong performances, a sweeping score by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross (one of two great scores this year, the other being Bones and All), and feels very evocative of its time and place. So why does it seem that the film is …

1917 Review: Sam Mendes Film Takes the Breath Away
As a war film, 1917 doesn't have much in the way of new ideas to offer — and maybe there aren't any for the genre now — but it's so elegantly crafted it takes the breath away. The story is simple: a pair of infantrymen have been given a message to deliver across nine treacherous …

2/16/2019 2:00 pm AACCS and DCCC will hold a free seminar. The seminar will explain and assist you to fill out two advance directives. After the seminar, there would be a Q&A section and a form review service will be provided.
Advance directives are legal documents that allow you to convey your decisions about end-of-life care ahead of time. They provide a way for you to communicate your wishes to family, friends and health care professionals, and to avoid confusion later on.
This form is designed to help you communicate your wishes about medical treatment at some time in the future when you are unable to make your wishes known because of illness or injury.
Except to the extent you state otherwise, this document gives the person you name as your agent the authority to make any and all health care decisions for you in accordance with your wishes, including your religious and moral beliefs, when you are no longer capable of making them yourself.

Syria chemical attack evidence may already be destroyed, says Britain
Britain said on Sunday that evidence of a chemical weapons attack in the suburbs of Damascus could have already been destroyed ahead of a visit to the site by UN inspectors.
Last Updated:August 26, 2013, 01:31 IST
Earlier on Monday Syria agreed to let experts from the United Nations on Monday visit the site of the reported poisonous gas attack which killed hundreds of people on Wednesday of last week.
"We have to be realistic now about what the UN team can achieve," Foreign Secretary William Hague told reporters.
"The fact is that much of the evidence could have been destroyed by that artillery bombardment. Other evidence could have degraded over the last few days and other evidence could have been tampered with," he said, referring to opposition activists' reports that the army has shelled the area in the last few days.
Hague said that all evidence pointed towards the use of chemical weapons by the Syrian government, and that such attacks demanded a strong international response.
"We cannot in the 21st century allow the idea that chemical weapons can be used with impunity," Hague said. "We believe it's very important that there is a strong response and that dictators ... know that the use of chemical weapons is to cross a line and that the world will respond when that line is crossed."

I was born in California in 1987. I received a BFA in photography from Minneapolis College of Art and Design in 2013 and now I'm a photographer living in Minneapolis. I arrived in Minnesota via Colorado; Missouri; Wisconsin; and Illinois but that was along time ago. Back when Michael Jordan was playing basketball and I was obsessed.
I'm a project based photographer that sometimes acts on fantasies of being a wandering Winogrand type. Currently I'm working on documentary photography projects and recently published a fictional photobook about a bank heist. Occasionally I take pictures for local newspapers and last year I shot my little sisters high school graduation photos. How did she grow up so fast?

Chance To Thrive campaign launched to find new foster carers in Hertfordshire
Jacob Savill
Published: 11:26 AM October 4, 2019 Updated: 8:18 PM November 1, 2020
The Fostering Network estimates that fostering services need to recruit a further 7,220 foster families across the UK. Picture: Archant - Credit: Archant
A campaign to recruit new foster carers has been launched in Hertfordshire this month.
#ChanceToThrive - an initiative from Herts County Council's fostering and adoption team - aims to find caring parents for children in need.
Helen Archer, a foster carer in Stevenage for seven years, says fostering is "one of the toughest jobs that anyone can do, but by far the most rewarding".
Helen is currently fostering two two teenagers, and continues to provide support for Jade - a young woman with additional needs who came to her aged 13.
"The greatest joy of fostering is the privilege of transforming young people's lives," Helen said.
"The children that come through foster care have had a traumatic start to life and their behaviour is often misunderstood. Foster care is about encouraging, and building up young people in a conventional home environment - and giving them hope for their futures."
Chance To Thrive is particularly focused on finding parents for children with additional needs, such as speech and learning disabilities.
Jade, who has a number of additional needs - including autism, ADD and dyspraxia - came to Helen aged 13 having spent time with ten different carers.
Now 20, Jade helps out at "Skills to Foster" training courses in Stevenage and assists with recruitment events in Herts.
She talks of the huge difference it can make to be "welcomed into a family" after the disruption of different homes and schools.
Approximately 70% of children in foster care have an additional need, compared with almost 20 per cent of all other children.
Teresa Heritage, deputy leader of Herts County Council and cabinet member for children, young people and families, said: "All children need a Chance to Thrive, and we are very grateful to all our foster parents who already look after children with additional needs.
"Someone like a police officer, a nurse, midwife, healthcare professional or probation worker, may feel they can use their experience to help them become a foster carer."
If you are interested in foster care, please contact Hertfordshire County Council's fostering and adoption team on 0800 917 0925.

In my last article I talked about comfort zones and promised to show you an easy method you can use to release the grip of comport zones that hold back your progress.
I'm talking about the Emotional Freedom Technique or EFT, which uses the ancient Chinese concepts of Acupressure, Acupuncture and the Meridian System.
Even though EFT was created something like 25 years back, it is one of the complimentary modalities that has been well researched and documented with high levels of success – both in emotional and physical issues.
Although to some people new in this technique it might look a bit crazy, its effectiveness should not be underestimated. And even if you are a bit of a sceptic in these things I would recommend to just give it a try. You don't need to believe in it for it to succeed.
If you want to know more about this technique and how to use it yourself please click here to download an introductory booklet in pdf format.
So coming back to the issue of depriving comfort zones here is video with a sequence you can follow to achieve your desired results.

Key challenge for concurrent programming is that side-effects (memory operations) in one thread can affect the behavior of another thread.

We wish to restrict, or tame, side-effects to make programs easier to maintain and understand.
To do so, we build on reference immutability.

To achieve this we give two novel typing
rules, which allow recovering isolated or immutable references from arbitrary code checked in environments containing only isolated or immutable inputs.
We provide two forms of parallelism:

 - Symmetric: Assuming that at most one thread may hold
   writable references to an object at a given point in time,
   then while all writable references in a context are temporarily forgotten (framed away, in the separation logic
   sense [28, 32]), it becomes safe to share all read-only or immutable references among multiple threads,
   in addition to partitioning externally-unique clusters between threads.

 - Asymmetric If all data accessible to a new thread is immutable
   or from externally-unique clusters which are
   made inaccessible to the spawning thread, then the new
   and old threads may run in parallel without interference.

### Reference Immutability, Uniqueness, and Parallelism

 - writable: An "ordinary" object reference, which allows mutation of its referent.

 - readable: A read-only reference, which allows no mutation of its referent. Furthermore, no heap traversal
   through a read-only reference produces a writable reference (writable references to the same objects may exist
   and be reachable elsewhere, just not through a readable reference). A readable reference may also refer to an immutable object.

 - immutable: A read-only reference which additionally notes
   that its referent can never be mutated through any reference.
   Immutable references may be aliased by read-only
   or immutable references, but no other kind of reference.
   All objects reachable from an immutable reference are
   also immutable.

 - isolated: An external reference to an externally-unique
   object cluster. External uniqueness naturally captures
   thread locality of data. An externally-unique aggregate
   is a cluster of objects that freely reference each other,
   but for which only one external reference into the aggregate exists.
   We define isolation slightly differently
   from most work on external uniqueness because we also
   have immutable objects: all paths to non-immutable objects reachable from the isolated reference pass through
   the isolated reference. We allow references out of the
   externally-unique aggregate to immutable data because it
   adds flexibility without compromising our uses for isolation:
   converting clusters to immutable, and supporting non-interference among threads. This
   change in definition does limit some traditional uses of
   externally-unique references that are not our focus, such
   as resource management tasks.

The most obvious use for reference immutability is to control where heap modification may occur in a program,
similar to the owner-as-modifier discipline in ownership and universe type systems.

### Safe Symmetric Parallelism

Fork-join concurrency is deterministic when neither forked
thread interferes with the other by writing to shared memory.

### Polymorphism

Any practical application of this sort of system naturally re-
quires support for polymorphism over type qualifiers.
Otherwise code must be duplicated, for example, for each
possible permission of a collection and each possible
permission for the objects contained within a collection.

What a cute card! I am going to have to try out printing an image and coloring it up. Nicely done.


Perhaps one of the reasons for not blogging about Thiam Hock is that it's already a well established restaurant and I see no need to blog about them. They are listed as one of Asia's finest restaurants and it's no surprise ~ a lot of celebrities from Hong Kong and Taiwan had dined in this restaurant before.
Thiam Hock is located at the Yong Siang Hai building – the block right behind the Mall, Gadong. They reserve parking for customers but these slots are usually taken pretty quick and finding parking here during the weekend can be difficult – be prepared to park a bit further and walk.
The restaurant has two floors – for big family dinners – we usually would book a table on the 1st floor while for a quick dinner or lunch, it's at ground floor.
The 1st floor includes a private room which could be closed off and even offers karaoke entertainment to cater for family dinners.
I for one like the paintings, the Chinese calligraphy, the potted plants which gives extra points to their dining ambience. Loving their lighting – stunning dragon drawing ~~ but quite subtle.
They have quite a big menu so you are bound to find something you like – from ordering dishes for dinner or simple a la carte quick meals ~~ suitable for many occasions. We decided to have my brother's birthday dinner with the family here ~ so here are some of the food we had.
Crispy chicken with sour plum salt. Crispy skin, moist flesh – dipped on an appetizing sour salt – yum!
Salted Fish fried rice with chicken.
Deep fried salt and pepper squid. I would had preferred the batter to be crispier but the texture of the squid is spot on and the flavour's good.
We never fail to order sweet and sour fish when we have family dinners. The Thiam Hock version does not disappoint with their fresh fish, crispy batter which is well balanced with the sweet and sour sauce.
Their Hei Wang Pai Kut (Guiness Stout Pork Ribs) has great texture and taste. One of their signatures – tender enough for my grandmother to chew but not too mushy.
Claypot braised tofu stew. The parents love this dish but it's not my favourite tofu dish – I usually ordered their Zhao Pai Tofu (signature seafood tofu – mashed tofu with seafood, steamed and fried again – highly recommended) but we ordered too much deep fried items and my parents wouldn't be able to stomache all that!
Last but not least is this Thai Style Soft Shell Crabs. They mixed it up with pork floss and managed to fry them up till super crispy! I've eaten A LOT of soft shell crabs in different restaurants but this is my vote for BEST soft shell crab dish in Brunei. Forget the simple battered soft shell crab – forget the very popular butter soft shell crab – the 2nd best salted yolk soft shell crab, this is the best reason to dine in Thiam Hock – Thai style Soft Shell Crabs. A MUST TRY!
Thiam Hock provides good service as well when it comes to birthdays. Food came out pretty fast and the birthday cake my sister bought – Yam Ice Cream cake from sweet delis was yum~ a great finish to our dinner.
Address and contact number for the restaurant.
Are you on twitter? We might go to Brunei. I have couple questions. Thanks.

Now that CG-animated films are more common, stop-motion has become more magical than it ever has before. Laika is a studio that built its name on doing this kind of work better than anyone else, creating modern gems like 'Coraline' and 'ParaNorman.' Can their latest effort, 'The Boxtrolls,' live up to their legacy? If the new teaser trailer is any indication, all signs point to yes.
The first teaser for 'The Boxtrolls' was little more than an announcement video. The second was a beautiful and unique look at the stop-motion process. This one, presumably the final teaser before a full-fledged look, is essentially a tone piece, showing off whimsical visuals and a cheerful attitude while still keeping the details of the plot fully under wraps. Set to a cover of "(You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care" by Cee Lo Green, it's a charming look at a movie that couldn't be more handsomely made.
The actual plot of the film deals with a young boy who was adopted and raised by the underground-dwelling creatures of the title who must journey to the surface world to save his strange family when they're faced with extermination. If the storytelling is half as good as the animation, we're there.
'The Boxtrolls' arrives in theaters on September 26.

Q: json_encode get values foreach object Hello I can't figure out how to loop through this json encoded array and for each object, get all its values. I need each value as a variable for itself.
echo json_encode($formulars);

This is what i get when i echo it out
[{"project_name":"polle","type":"support","title":"vi","reason":"prover","solution":"igen","comments":"okay ","date_stamp":"2013-08-20 14:06:37","used_time":132},{"project_name":"dolla","type":"support","title":"lolol","reason":"skl","solution":"dskal","comments":"kflafda ","date_stamp":"2013-08-20 14:11:36","used_time":210},{"project_name":"polle","type":"fejl","title":"lol","reason":"aksdl","solution":"fdjks","comments":"djsks ","date_stamp":"2013-08-20 14:13:27","used_time":1230}]

I have tried this piece of code and I managed to get out the project_name from the first object and that's it:
foreach ($formulars as $current => $project_name) {
        $project_name['project_name'];

    }

So is there any way i can get all the variables for each object in my array instead of just the project_name?
Like this:
foreach ($formulars as $current){
    $projectName = $current['project_name'];
    $type = $current['type'];
    $reason = $current['reason'];

}

Thanks in advance

A: Seems like you have an objects inside an array. So you will need to loop through the array and get each object. Just JSON_DECODE your encoded string like below.
Perhaps:
$data = json_decode($formulars,true);
/* Since it's only one object inside the array, you could just select element zero, but I wil loop*/

//You should now be able to do this
foreach ($data as $current){
    $projectName = $current['project_name'];
    $type = $current['type'];
    $reason = $current['reason'];

 }

The reason I loop is because there is a object inside an array(Javascript way I think).

A: Use json_decode to convert the json object to an array; then use foreach to loop through the array. That should work.
<?php
    $arr_json = json_decode($formulars);
    foreach($arr_json as $key => $value)
        //Code to perform required actions
?>

This should give you some ideas.

A: Use json_decode (with TRUE for getting an associative array)to convert your JSON object to an associative array. After that, you can use a foreach loop to traverse through your multidimensional array and print the required values.
Code:
$json = json_decode($string, true);

foreach ($json as $key => $value) {
  foreach($value as $key2 => $value2) {
    echo $value2."\n";
  }
}

Working Demo!
