Riverstone is located in the Hills District region of Sydney; it is situated 48 kms north west of the Sydney CBD in New South Wales, Australia. Riverstone is located in the Riverstone state electorate and has a population of 6,191 people. The suburbs surrounding Riverstone are: South Windsor, Windsor Downs, Vineyard, Box Hill, Rouse Hill, Kellyville Ridge, Schofields, and Marsden Park.
Prior to white settlement, the area was inhabited by the Darug tribe of Indigenous Australians. On the arrival of the first fleet, much of the Darug population were wiped out by disease. The remainder of the tribe were relocated to Government farms to allow the area to be settled by colonists hoping to farm the region. The area turned out to be unsuitable for colonial farming practices and despite the Darug tribe having lived off the land successfully for many years, the colonists barely survived, spending a number of years in 'near-famine' conditions, eventually relocating food production inland.
The suburb was originally named Riverston after Riverston Farm, owned by Lieutenant Colonel Maurice Charles O'Connell. The 'e' at the end of the Suburb name first appeared in a misprinted railway timetable in 1860 and became accepted as the correct spelling.
In 1988, to commemorate the 200th anniversary of European settlement in Australia, a heritage museum was erected in the Masonic Hall, where it remains today.

The first 100 customers will receive gift cards. Plus, shoppers will be able to enter for a chance to win a year's supply of ALDI produce.
MUNCIE, Ind. — The ALDI grocery on Muncie's south side is just about ready to reveal its new look after a near-$1.2 million makeover.
The company announced it will reopen its store at 3221 S. Madison St. on July 5 with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 8:25 a.m. This will be followed by a "Golden Ticket" giveaway offering gift cards to the first 100 customers. Shoppers can also enter a sweepstakes for a chance to win a year's supply of ALDI produce.
The store closed in late spring as it underwent renovations and an expansion toward East 26th Street to accommodate more robust produce, dairy and bakery sections. A building permit filed by ALDI Indiana indicated the remodel would cost an estimated $1.2 million and add 1,910 square feet to the existing 19,709 square feet.
When the store reopens, new features will include open ceilings, natural lighting and environmentally-friendly building materials.
"Now it will be even easier for customers to find the foods they want from us at a great price, whether it's fresh produce, award-winning wines or our beloved ALDI finds," Laura Bauer, Greenwood division vice president for ALDI, said in a prepared statement.
The newly remodeled store on Madison Street will be open 9 a.m.-8 p.m. Monday through Sunday, according to a release.
The south side Muncie store's renovations are part of the company's nationwide plan to update more than 1,300 stores across the country by 2020.
"At this time, it is still too early to confirm any details of the store you are inquiring about. We will be in touch as soon as more information becomes available."


Two of the latest documentary films produced by WebbOn Media were nominated at the Russian Film and TV festival Northern Character in Murmansk 26 to 28 November. One of them, "Children of Destiny", won an award in the category Best Youth programs.
The movie features a Russian student Jegor Sushko and a Swedish girl Emma Wahlberg leavе their prospective studies and careers and set off for Tanzania to help the 26 orphans, to build a sustainable foundation.
When Jegor and Emma arrived to the place they had big dreams of helping the foundation to become independent, to have their own home, and garden so they could grow own food. But the reality was much more different from their dreams. The rented house where kids were living was falling apart and even though it was not enough money to pay for it. Food and clothes was partly bought with money some individuals were sending from abroad and partly from Margaret's loans. So in 6 months Jegor and Emma spent time looking for ways to reach foundations dreams and they are still trying. They were teaching kids math and English. And also made a couple of websites for them to search for sponsors and found money to support the foundation.
Another documentary had the world premiere of their new movie "Apples on the wall". Directed and filmed by Tamara Sushko where she found out how it was to be a war refugee. The story is based on Kirsten Erikssons life. Kirsten grew up in Kirkenes, but then became refugees during two periods in her life during the World War II. Her family fled to Russia by a boat then Kirsten as a war child was sent to Sweden. Today Kirsten Basma Erricsson is a well-known theater producer, designer and has also done theater production "Swedish-Ongan".
"We wanted to make an art film about Kirsten because She carries a strong and poetic related to many humanitarian questions that are still present today. The film feels relevant at this time because of the ongoing refugee crisis in the world", says Tamara.

"Yoruba Sovereignty is Non-Negotiable, on Course and Irreversible" says YGA
By Peter Ayoade On Mar 24, 2021
Yoruba Global Alliance, a leading Self Determination Organization with allies in 133 countries across the world has admonished the Yoruba people currently tied down in Nigeria not to panic in the face of the programmed onslaught by marauders waging war against the whole of Nigeria.
In a strongly worded press statement by Veteran International Journalist and Chairman of Council of the Organization, Akogun Tola Adeniyi, Yoruba Global Alliance assures the Yoruba Nation that their goal of Yoruba Sovereignty is not negotiable, on course and irreversible. The statement, endorsed by the founding fathers of the YGA, assures the entire Yoruba race that efforts by YG, our allies and other several Self Determination groups were on to ward off every threat to the corporate existence of the Yoruba.
"We are not a nation of cowards. And even though our civilization and enlightened worldview have imbued us with unique Omoluwabi tenets which accord love and accommodation to all human beings, we nonetheless believe that it's only human beings who should be treated as human beings while animals are animals."
"We want to assure our Yoruba compatriots that we are working, but quietly, strategically and tactically just like the masterminds behind those devouring Nigeria have remained anonymous without vainglorious and attention-seeking noisemaking. Yoruba fighting forces, like in the tradition of soldiers all over the world are the ones who should do the chest beating to showcase their conquests.
"We are convinced that Nigeria is already at war, and we are also not deceived by the shenanigans of those who embrace terrorism and cuddle banditry and seek to impose Stone Age mentality on all those who still erroneously believe there is a country called Nigeria. Yoruba Global Alliance a.k.a Egbe Ominira sympathizes with our fellow African cousins in Sokoto, Zamfara, Kaduna, Borno and other states north of Rivers Niger and Benue who are being daily plummeted by pampered and officially emboldened terrorists, most of whom were imported into their territorial space by officialdom.
"We are also cognizant of the wicked design of the war mongers to destroy the Eastern and Delta regions of Nigeria with the unrealistic ambition of occupying such fertile lands once the aboriginal owners of the hitherto nation-states are vanquished.
The Yoruba will no longer be deceived by the hypocrisy, insincerity and duplicity of those who are preaching peace with empty rhetoric and dramatized sympathy visits while at the same time turning blind eye to the massive buildup of arms and brutal incursion and invasion of the terrorized people they are preaching peace to. It is disingenuous for those who have cornered all the apparatus of defence and security and who have all the powers to stop the unprovoked plunder of other people's means of livelihood, to tie down the tiger and hand over its tail to the dog and still preach peace and quiet to the tiger.
" Don't talk peace, stop acts that make peace unattainable."
"Our hearts go out in sympathy to all members of the Armed Forces and Security Agencies who are confused about the notion of loyalty, either to political party in transient power, to individuals or to the State. We appeal to them to end the confusion today. Nigerian Armed Forces and Security Agencies including the Police belong to the entire country and not to a person, a party or a section of the country. We pity our young men and women who are exposed to danger in discharging their official duties by a State that fails to provide them with modern weapons and logistics.
"Albeit our programmes for eventual realization of our set objectives, achievable through peaceful and diplomatic means, are being pursued vigorously. We have acquired hectares of land in all the Yoruba speaking regions which would be allocated to our youths and those interested in mechanized farming to guarantee food security to our nation. Our teeming unemployed graduates are being contacted with view to empowering them and to also source for grants and educational institutions locally and abroad to compliment the pool of highly trained personnel to enrich our stellar position in 21st century. We have embarked on coordination of various guilds of professionals, tradesmen, marketers and artisans all over the Yoruba nation for enhanced productivity. Our overall goal is to make every Yoruba person gainfully employed, prosperous, secure and happy in robust health.
If small nations like the United Arab Emirates {UAE} can endeavour to send man to the moon, why not the United Yoruba Kingdoms which is surpassed in population by only 13 countries in the world?
"The Yoruba country is poised to build a nation of equal opportunities, a nation of freedom, responsibility and accountability in the mould of past heroes led by the Honourable Chief Obafemi Awolowo.
"We are able. We are capable. We are richly and eminently endowed. Our rich pedigree assures us that whatever we lay our hands on, we succeed in.
"We therefore call on our people to be strong, bold and resolute. No force on earth can drive us away from our ancestral land. No forces of evil and darkness can chase away our legendary light. In this regard we salute our fighting heroes and commit them to God's impregnable protection.
"The Nigerian Minister of Defence has publicly declared that their Government cannot defend the land and everybody should resort to self-help and defend themselves. Even the Head of State has given up and resigned the provision of security of lives, limbs and property to Allah! Every Yoruba person therefore should be prepared to defend themselves, in their homes, on their farms, in their places of work, and even on the roads with whatever weapon they know. Our forefathers did it, and they won. The gun does not shoot, bombs do not throw themselves at people; it is human beings who operate these weapons of mass destruction. Human beings are never beyond control!
"In war time, all sorts of threats and counter threats fly in the air. All kinds of crude and unguarded statements are issued as weapons of propaganda by those bent on breaking your spirit. Please ignore such lies and threats. Fear and panic are designed to make you lose focus and even lose your mind. Let whatever is threatening from the forest come out: it is better to die on our feet than to be killed like a fowl. And we die only once. But because our cause is right and just, we SHALL not die". All of us shall be alive to partake in the dawn of New Era of peace and plenty in the imminent Yoruba nation.
The statement concludes by advising the Yoruba to shun the often-misguided statement that the Yoruba are not united. "Nothing can be further from the truth. The Yoruba are united in spirit and in the knowledge of what is good and what is evil. The Yoruba are robustly united in the ethos of the Yoruba race and in the belief in freedom, justice and equity. While the routes to the market are many, the Yoruba believe they are united in getting to the market."
"And because we are philosophical, rational, knowledgeable and united in thought processes, the Yoruba, right from cradle, cannot be united like a flock of sheep or cows under whip-wielding herder.

Two more persons were arrested on Sunday in connection with an incident in Madhya Pradesh's Seoni district, in which five persons had assaulted three others for allegedly carrying beef, following which the attackers and the victims were held.
With this, the number of people arrested in the May 22 incident, a video of which went viral on the social media, stood at 10, an official said.
According to the police, a group of five "gaurakshaks" (cow vigilantes) allegedly beat up two men with sticks and forced one of the victims to thrash a woman accompanying them with chappals.
While the five self-styled cow vigilantes were held under sections 341(wrongful restraint), 294 (obscene act), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) and 34 (act done by several persons with common intention) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and under the Arms Act, the three persons who got thrashed were arrested under the Madhya Pradesh Govansh Vadh Pratishedh Adhiniyam.
"We arrested siblings Rasheed Hakim (24) and Sammi Hakim (20) on Sunday for selling meat to the three people who were beaten up on May 22. The brothers are residents of Kheri village," informed Dunda Seoni police station in-charge GS Uike.
The police had impounded 140 kg of red meat, suspected to be beef, which has been sent to the laboratory for analysis, the official said.

High-flow cartridges provide safety filter solution for RO
In recent years, considerable progress has been achieved in membrane technology in China. It has been widely used in many fields, including seawater desalination, power plants, metallurgic, petrochemical, and municipal and wastewater reuse. This article looks at the use of safety filters for RO systems and how a high-flow filter can avoid build-up of microorganisms and consequent frequent filter change. A paper factory project provides a case study. Significant advantages including high flow-rate and long service-time help Horizon's RZ filter cartridge to occupy an important position in safety filtration for the membrane water-treatment market in China. It displays superior applicability to those large-scale and super large-scale plants operated in recent years. At the same time, RZ filter cartridges have shown fine performance when handling raw water with complicated quality or large fluctuations. Compared with regular cartridges, RZ filter cartridges provide an excellent solution to safety filtration of membrane water treatment because of their longer service life, smaller investment and lower change-out cost. This article appeared in the May/June issue of D&WR magazine.
Antiscalant removes need for acid in wastewater RO
Field trials of a new scale-inhibiting chemical for use with reverse-osmosis membranes in wastewater reuse plants show that, at a low dose rate, it can increase the solubility of calcium phosphate by over one hundred times, obviating the need for using dangerous and costly acid. Current design practices for large effluent reuse projects are focused on a combination of removing phosphate by precipitation prior to the RO plant and acid dosing to reduce pH to 6.0 and hence increase calcium phosphate solubility to prevent fouling. Conventional antiscalants are ineffective at high phosphate and high recovery rates, and the only other option has been to dose large quantities of acid to reduce feed pH to below 6.2. Reducing the pH from 7.5 to 6.0 on a 2,700 m /day plant would require 0.5 to 1 ton of 95% sulphuric acid per day. Handling this quantity of acid is an environmental, health, safety and logistical problem that many plant operators would like to move away from. The results from the field trials show that using a highly active threshold inhibiting antiscalant such as Genesys PHO at a low dose rate of 2 -5 mg/L can increase the solubility of calcium phosphate by over one hundred times. This article appeared in D&WR magazine's August/September 2008 issue.

My first game with AGS. It's a simple shooter where you try to destroy as many asteroids as possible. In the process you'll find weapon powerups, health packs and a temporary super weapon. You'll be needing them when you try to rack up as many points as you can!
And as Pierre says below me, don't let your cursor trail to the top of the screen.
Apart from that, I found the gameplay to be rather enjoyable.
You are the new bitmap Brother :) Nice test game ! Very nice, you should go on with it !

On This Day 21 September 1827 birth of General Michael Corcoran
Posted on September 21, 2018 by Myles Dungan
He's the voice of Irish rugby on RTE radio, a passionate Munster man who would never dream of allowing any provincial preference to become apparent in his broadcasts. Allegedly. But today we're talking about the other Michael Corcoran, Fenian, soldier and confidant of Abraham Lincoln.
The story begins in 1860. The occasion is the proposed visit of the Prince of Wales to New York. The Prince had been gracing Canada with his presence and was invited south. In order to avoid the attentions of Irish desperadoes he journeyed to New York incognito. Being a member of the royal family, however, he chose not to travel as plain old Mister Smyth (probably with a 'y'), but selected the assumed name of Baron Renfrew. He had a perfect right to do so as it happened to be one of his many titles. Doubtless for the sake of brevity and anonymity he chose to forego the rest of the Renfrew name, which goes 'Lord of the Isles, Prince and Great Steward of Scotland'.So quite a comedown really for poor old Bertie.
The plan was that on his arrival the Prince was to be greeted by an honour guard of New York Militia Regiments. This, in theory, was to include the famous 'Fighting 69th', a regiment of committed Irish nationalists. When its commanding officer, Colonel Michael Corcoran, from Ballymote, Co.Sligo, was informed of the plan he refused absolutely to parade his regiment before the heir to the throne of England. The fact that he was a member of the growing Irish Revolutionary Brotherhood, was likely to have influenced his attitude.
His insubordination in the face of the man who would be Edward VII (but not for another forty years or so) caused him to be arrested pending a court martial. Fortunately for him Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America, intervened on his behalf. Well at least he did so in the sense that the Confederate army fired on Fort Sumter and the American Civil War began.
It was deemed wise to release Corcoran without the need for a court martial. In return the Sligo man offered to recruit new Irish members to the 69thto bring it to full strength. He sought 1000 men. He could have got five times that number. It was a period of profound innocence. No one knew what war was really about. It was all a big adventure.
The 69th found out very quickly what exactly it was all about. They went into action in the defence of Washington, DC, on 21 July, 1861 on the banks of a Virginia river in the first major battle of the war. It was Bull Run if you were fighting for the Union in the Civil War – Manassas if you were with the Confederates in the War Between the States. It was a battle in which the Union army offered a powerful demonstration – of exactly how much it had to learn about warfare. The Union forces were overwhelmed by the greycoats. The 69th, abandoned and isolated, attempted to beat an orderly retreat in the midst of the shambles that surrounded them. Corcoran was wounded in the leg. He, and a number of his men were taken prisoner. When the Union threatened to execute a captured Confederate naval commander for piracy the Confederacy selected Corcoran to be shot in retaliation. It was quite a tribute to his leadership qualities and his importance. Fortunately for the Irish Colonel both sides backed down.
The Confederates offered to release Corcoran on parole. All he had to do was guarantee not to rejoin the Union Army and continue to fight against them. On those terms Corcoran preferred to stay in prison. Then, in November, 1861, a Union ship intercepted an English steamer on the high seas and removed two Confederate diplomats, James Mason and John Slidell, who were on their way to England. Her Majesty's government was livid and, for a brief period, there was a genuine threat that Britain would enter the war on the Confederate side. Of course, this did wonders for Irish recruitment in the North, though probably not as much in the South. Corcoran, who had been promoted to Brigadier General while he was in prison, was exchanged for the two southern diplomats. So impressed was President Lincoln with the Irish officer's refusal of parole, that he invited him to dinner in the White House.
Corcoran, far from opting out of the war, as the Confederacy would have preferred, raised a force of eight Irish regiments, in a Legion that was called after him. He himself rose to become a Corps commander until he was thrown by his horse and died, tragically and pointlessly, in 1863. As far as we know the Prince of Wales sent no flowers to the funeral.
Michael Corcoran from Ballymote in Co. Sligo, American Civil War General and dedicated member of the Irish Republican Brotherhood, was born, one hundred and ninety one years ago, on this day.

Mineola's Sabria Dean continues to have a stellar year for the Lady 'Jackets. The Lady 'Jackets fell to defending state champion Mt. Vernon in a close ball game last week. The Lady 'Jackets are 8-2 at this time. They will play in the Great East Texas Shootout at Brownsboro this weekend.


Most cowboys we've known have been from Texas. They've also been men of few words. In keeping with this tradition, we see no need to blather on and on about how ridiculously smooth and earthy and complex this simple barbecue sauce is or how it can anoint all manner of meats and seafood, whether spare ribs or pulled pork or grilled chicken or salmon fillets or, well, ahem, you get the idea. Tasting is believing. And moms and dads, this sauce is blissfully slightly sweet without hardly any heat, and it's been kid-approved time and again in our kitchens.
1. In a saucepan, melt the lard over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, and celery, and cook until softened. Add the ketchup, vinegar, water, Worcestershire, and black pepper, and continue to simmer for about 30 minutes.
2. In a small bowl, combine a few tablespoons sauce with the chili powder until smooth. Add this mixture to the rest of the sauce in the pan and stir to combine. Remove the pan from the heat and let the sauce stand for 1 hour.
3. Okay, that's it. You're done. The slightly chunky sauce is nice as is, but for a more traditional consistency, purée it in a blender or with an immersion blender. You should have about 2 1/2 cups or enough for 10 to 12 servings. This sauce is best served warm or at room temperature, but it stores really well refrigerated in an airtight container.
"Really, really good!" That was my 12-year-old nephew's assessment after he demolished a rack of baby back ribs doused with this barbecue sauce. Just a few minutes prior, my nephew had asked me to "not glop on the sauce," as he had yet to try the sauce. But at the table, he was slathering crazy amounts of this sauce on each rib. My husband nodded his agreement at my nephew's proclamation, his mouth still full of ribs. I understand why. The sauce has a velvety texture from the lard and a remarkably cohesive and complex taste despite the fact that it calls for just a few everyday ingredients. I was particularly grateful that the recipe had kid appeal even though the only sugar of any sort comes from the ketchup—and I was careful to use natural ketchup without any high-fructose corn syrup. I also used ground ancho chili powder rather than standard supermarket chili powder. Since then, I've made this numerous times, once with standard chili powder and we prefer the more mellow heat of ancho. I've also taken to using bacon drippings in place of lard just because it's economical and we always have it on hand for barbecue sauce emergencies, of which there've been a few since this recipe landed in our laps.
I chose to make this recipe because my entire family loves barbecue pork. This BBQ Sauce recipe was a HUGE hit! Even my 4-year-old grandson loved the meat! Super easy and quick, about 20 minutes to prep. The sauce was a perfect match with ribs. All the rich, earthy flavors went so well together!! Everyone ate everything on their plates and even wanted more.
We served this sauce with the Smoked Spare Ribs. The sauce was nice and chunky with deep flavors that perfectly complemented the ribs. I think 1/4 cup lard is more than is actually needed; two tablespoons would probably be just right. While the sauce was simmering, it appeared to be quite oily and I skimmed about 2 tablespoons oil from the top of the sauce. There was still some oil left on top, but it seemed to incorporate into the sauce as the sauce rested.

Finger injury forces Brooks to pull out of the Indian Open
Daniel Brooks forced to pull out of Indian Open due to finger injury
By Danny Rust @Danny_Rust10 Sports Reporter
Hampered by a finger injury - Daniel Brooks
DANIEL Brooks has been forced to pull out of the Indian Open due to injury.
Brooks suffered a finger problem after getting his hand caught in netting next to a kids' slide at Festival Leisure Park last month.
And the lay-off has affected Brooks' form on the PGA European Tour.
The Basildon-born professional golfer retired after just two holes at the NBO Oman Open, while he then failed to make the cut at the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters a week later.
And Brooks withdrew from the Tshwane Open last time out - after finishing the first round five over par.
The 31-year-old will now take time off and allow his injured fingers to heal before returning to action.
Brooks said: "I've had to pull out of the Indian Open this week and I'm going to take a few weeks off.
"I'm not scheduled to be in another event for four weeks, so hopefully it will have healed by then. If it hasn't, I might need to get something done to it.
"I had to withdraw from the Tshwane Open because I was in too much pain.
"I keep trying to play with the injury and I practised the day before the Tshwane Open got underway.
"It was swollen then but I was coping with it and wanted to play.
"But I then woke up the next day, on the morning of the first round, and my injured fingers were really stiff and painful.
"I need to have a rest now and it's for the best."
Brooks has now competed in eight events on the European Tour this season.
However, Brooks has only completed all four rounds of a course once.
Having tied for 30th place at the Joburg Open in December, Brooks was also able to claim his only prize winnings so far this campaign.
But injury has hampered Brooks' progress.
And Brooks admits that he has been frustrated with the lay-offs.
"Not much has happened since the start of the season yet," added Brooks.
"I haven't played pain-free for a few months now and that has been frustrating.
"I'm looking forward to getting back on the course pain-free again."
While the Indian Open gets underway today, Brooks' withdrawal means that south Essex will not be represented in New Delhi as Thorpe Hall Golf Club members Matt Southgate and Richard McEvoy will also not be involved.

Blogging. Photography. Editing. Family time. Netflix and chilling (and by this, I am actually referring to my husband and I chilling on the couch watching Netflix folks!). This is my life. A photographer's life.
But which would I rather do? Of course, pretty much every photographer on the planet would answer the same, anything else besides blogging! Although, blogging is also very important in a photography business. It has been proven to help small businesses on so many levels. Who doesn't love to see gorgeous images as well? I'd love to share some! Sparrow Photography wants you to see her work. Blogging has to be done for that to happen! So now that we have hit August of 2017 ALREADY, I am going to make it known that this is a vow to my audience to push through the craziness and blog anyways! Regardless, of what may be in my calendar. You deserve it! What client doesn't want to see his or her photos blogged! It is so fun to say, that "I was blogged today!" Even photographers love to say it too! A challenge that I am excited to take on going forward. If so many momtrepreneurs can do it, then well I don't have any excuses now do I.
Please check back to the blog soon as I plan to play a little game of catch up to update the blog more regularly. Looking forward to posting your images soon! In the meantime, let's take a trip down memory lane when Sparrow Photography was featured on Wedluxe.com last year. When you archive a feature on a blog of this caliber if it contagious. Here is more pretty and fun features in 2017!
Thank you so much for your continuous interest and support. Being able to photograph beautiful faces during some of the most unforgettable moments in your lives has been incredible!


The mobile payments market has come along leaps and bounds in the past few years. We've went from using them hesitantly to making these payments a part of our everyday lives. Even in stores that accept contactless or for sending money to one another, we've been using this payment method more and more.
Right now, there's a massive war ongoing between various payment providers. Alternate payment providers, like Apple Pay and PayPal are now becoming even more popular than banks. This is because they are flexible, easy to use and generally don't add extra charges to their payments. These eWallet services now offer a viable alternative to traditional banking, which users are quickly catching on to.
Back in 1998, PayPal first came onto the scene and there's no question that this revolutionised how we pay. This product was well placed at the beginning of the online shopping boom and this was a great time for this to occur. People wanted to experiment with online payments but were still wary of the dangers that it posed. PayPal was a convenient way for users to get extra security while using this service.
As far as payment methods are concerned, PayPal is still king. This is true in just about every sector, from online shopping to gambling. The sheer number of sites accepting this payment method is almost frightening, as it's undoubtedly the most popular eWallet. Take mobile bingo pay with phone bill sites as an example, these bingo sites outnumber those that accept Neteller, Bitcoin or Paysafecard.
Through using these alternate payment methods, the online gambling sector is able to entice even more players that perhaps would not have deposited if this was not an option. This helps the industry to look more legitimate and get rid of some of the stigma surrounding the industry.
Apps for mobile payments just make the whole process much more convenient. Players can easily keep an eye on what they're spending and their own security. Banking providers are attempting to keep up with this by pioneering their own apps but these don't usually have quite as much flexibility. They also have more stringent security, often requiring three step processes to verify a payment.
For this reason, alternate mobile payment methods like PayPal must have more fraud protection in the case that their security is subverted. This allows them to offer easier ways to make payments while still accepting liability if they are breeched, which makes users a lot more comfortable.
In the future, it seems that Google will be one of the driving forces of innovation. They're currently working on a product that would use the contactless of your card, while it's still in your handbag. All of their innovation seems to be geared towards making the process easier and faster for users to pay.
Over the next few years, we'll probably see some massive changes to the way we pay with mobile. PayPal will likely still top the charts but this could shift quickly if another payment method does things better.

Atlantic League Announces Additional 2021 Rules
April 22, 2021	 Posted by	Kye Parsons Featured Sports, Regional Sports
NEW YORK– Following its joint announcement last week with Major League Baseball regarding 2021 test rules, the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball on Thursday announced rules it will retain from the MLB experiments conducted in 2019. Many of these changes debuted in the Atlantic League that season and have been adopted by MLB for use in affiliated minor leagues.
"We've always known that MLB tests have the potential to land in the Majors," said Atlantic League President Rick White. "MLB's recent announcement that several of the 2019 experimental rules will be tested this season in affiliated minor leagues is another indicator that these may be the future of our game. It's our goal to make our players ready for that future, so we are happy to continue many of these rules and provide more performance data to our partners at Major League Baseball."
The most conspicuous of the returning rules is the Automated Ball-Strike System (ABS), which first made headlines at the Atlantic League All-Star Game in York, PA, in 2019. Now commonly known as "robo-umps," the system uses newest generation Trackman tracking software to instantly relay a call of "ball" or "strike" to the earpiece of the home plate umpire. MLB announced it will expand use of the ABS to its Low-A Southeast league this season.
The three-batter minimum rule requiring pitchers to face at least three batters or reach the end of an inning before exiting the game was instituted in Major League Baseball last year and is in effect this season as well. It will again be in place when the Atlantic League begins play on May 27.
The Atlantic League will continue to use 18-inch bases. Three inches larger than traditional bags, the larger bases will also be used on AAA affiliated diamonds this year.
Atlantic League infielders will again be required to be on the infield dirt when a pitch is released this year. MLB will further test that rule at the AA level in 2021.
The time between innings will continue to be limited to one minute, 45 seconds, down from the previous two minutes, five seconds and in keeping, White said, with the ALPB's longstanding efforts to improve the pace of play of the game.
Four other returning rules continue that effort. The extra inning tie-breaker, implemented in the Atlantic League before its rules test initiative with MLB, will continue. The rule places a runner at second base in the first extra inning of a regular season game. This rule was implemented in the big leagues in 2020 and is in effect this MLB season.
Managers, coaches, and players will be limited to three "timeouts" each nine-inning game, one timeout in the 10th inning, and one time out every three innings thereafter, reprising a rule originally introduced in the ALPB.
The league retains the intentional base on balls rule it implemented several years prior to MLB implementation in 2019.
Atlantic League pitchers will be limited to a 15-second period between pitches, which MLB will test in the Low-A West.

The XNAT Desktop Client is a stand-alone application built with Electron that works with the latest XNAT version to upload image session data with anonymization, and download image session data using a native xnat:// protocol to handle an XML download manifest. The desktop client includes the core functionality of the Upload Assistant, plus transfer management capabilities such as "Pause", "Resume" and "Cancel".
The XNAT Upload Assistant is a stand-alone Java application purpose-built to anonymize and upload image session data to your XNAT. It contains the same core functionality as the XNAT upload applet, which is no longer being supported by web browsers, plus additional enhancements for XNAT 1.7 and DicomEdit 6. You can connect the XNAT Upload Assistant securely to one or more XNAT instances.
DicomBrowser is an application for inspecting and modifying DICOM metadata in many files at once. A single imaging session can produce thousands of DICOM files; DicomBrowser allows users to view and edit a whole session – or even multiple sessions – at once.
The latest version of DICOM Browser is 1.7.5-20181217092853. Download the appropriate installer for your system.
Use XNAT Gateway to query XNAT for DICOM images from a DICOM viewing workstation. You can install the Gateway locally and connect to it as to any other DICOM server. DICOM requests are translated into XNAT requests, and the result is returned over DICOM networking protocol.
The XNAT 1.7 Rad Read plugin adds the radiology read data type and custom UI for entering rad reads.
Xsync plugin enables automatic synchronization of data from a project in one XNAT system to a project in a second system. Xsync is configurable to ensure that only the desired data is delivered, and if required, data is properly de-identified, and that it is delivered on a pre-set schedule.

Precious Scars
"I've spent the last two years getting comfortable with myself," shares Gabrielle Aplin as the past few years have been monumental ones for the 26-year-old singer-songwriter, who rose to prominence after videos of her singing covers on YouTube gained a large following and her cover of "The Power of Love" was selected to soundtrack the John Lewis 2012 Christmas advertisement. While working on her new album (due out later this year), she acknowledges that her focus has evolved since her attention to mental health in 2017 and 2018 has fostered growth in the singer that has transcended directly into her music. "l found out that I have ADHD so I've been writing a lot about my brain. It's definitely an exploration of my mind and how it's wired and how it works and the chemicals that make me who I am," she opens up. "I've spent the last two years really working on trying to be more positive – not for any reason that I have to pretend to be happy. I feel very empowered getting to know my brain and how I react when different things happen to me." For instance, "My Mistake," released last November, garnered positive critical reception for its raw and powerful lyrics (which is "the most personal, honest song ever written," as she puts it), and her recent "Nothing Really Matters" celebrates positivity and self-love.
In addition, despite her constant anxieties while touring, Aplin's love for travel has allowed her to tap into a reservoir of unbounded inspiration. "When I travel, I'm really anxious. I love playing shows but I hate everything else," she elaborates. "I hate not sleeping in my bed every night but I also love experiencing a new culture, especially. When I was in Japan, I was at Kyoto's temples, and went down to Kamakura, but the best thing that made me forget about feeling anxious all the time was playing the shows."
Needless to say, Aplin's avid travel all over the globe continues to inspire her artistic expression. "I was writing one day, and wrote a song about the Japanese art of Kintsugi. Kintsugi is the art of precious scars, and that's something I soaked up during my trip," she recalls. "When I came back from Brazil, I was really inspired but I didn't try and sit down and write a carnival song but I wrote a song that sounded like a carnival song, so I think I was definitely influenced without realizing."
Moreover, she has experimented with many genres and unique sounds, taking an increased role in her own music production. "It's sounds and production that I love to experiment with. I just can't do one production or genre. I love to dress them up in different ways like going through a phase of wanting to wear black in the winter then covering yourself up in sequins in the summer, but it's still the same thing you're covering," says Aplin who hopes to combine her love of music and art. "One of my dreams is to be a music supervisor on a film or series. I need something else to get stuck into."

Spikehorn's Rabbit
Posted on September 18, 2012 by martyjbird
It's a mighty big bunny. Big enough to have a saddle and stirrups and big enough to hold most adults. But then this rabbit is associated with Spikehorn, a.k.a. John Meyers, Clare County, Michigan's most famous (and eccentric resident) so it's not surprising that this particular critter is not your usual run-of-the-mill rascally rabbit.
Every summer, from sometime in the 1950s to the early 70s the rabbit could be found in front of the Spikehorn place. Then it left Clare County until it was tracked down and purchased by Tom Sellers, author of the book, "Spikehorn, The Life Story of John E. Meyers." The story of the rabbit's recovery appeared in a story in the Clare County Cleaver in 2000 and appears at the end of this post.
The rabbit was really owned by Earl Heslet, who made his living selling instant

sepia-toned pictures to tourists in the days before Polaroid photos and looooong before digital photographs and the Internet made sharing of photos instantaneous. The rabbit was once white but between sun and dust from the road and dirt from the kids, the rabbit eventually turned brown was dyed the latter color.
According to Sellers' book, Spikehorn allowed Heslet to use his property without charge to take photos of children astride the rabbit. By the time Heslet and the rabbit arrived on the scene, Spikehorn's bears were no longer chained out front, so he needed a "hook" to bring people to his establishment. And while attracting tourists with a bunny (regardless of size) instead of a bear might have been a big step down for Spikehorn, he was enough of a businessman to know the huge rabbit brought in travelers and they, in turn while stopped, would spend money at his store (receipts in the summer could run as high as $2,000 a month!)

Once Spikehorn's place closed in the early 1970's, Heslet packed up his bunny, hopped into his vehicle and out of town for good—until the rabbit's recovery by Sellers. Now, the rabbit can be seen most Saturdays at the Clare County Museum at the corner of Dover and Eberhart Roads. This year, it even made a special guest appearance at the CCHS exhibit at the 2012 Clare County Fair.
Maybe someday, the rabbit will be restored to its former glory and kids can once again have their photos taken astride it. Well, maybe not restored completely, even today a white rabbit won't stay white for long.
Spikehorn Saddled Rabbit Recovered
Article from the Clare County Cleaver
"He's back. Back home in Clare County. The famous, fuzzy giant, saddled rabbit that for years welcomed visitors to Spikehorn's Bear Den and Wildlife Park has finally returned.
Thousands of tourists made sure to have their picture taken astride this plaster-of-Paris creation that was recently rescued by Tom Sellers, author of the best-selling biography "Spikehorn, The Life Story of John E. Meyers."
It seems the bunny has been quite popular since he left Harrison 30 years ago. He's appeared in Vasser's Centennial Parade, the Caro Pumpkin Festival and on the front lawn of a flea market 20 miles east of Saginaw, where he has wintered the manager's garage.
"I was selling junk out front here, oh, had to be over 30 years ago, when this here feller pulled up and asked if I'd sell his rabbit," said the long-eared creature's keeper. "I told him that was plain impossible 'cause my German shepherd would eat him!" recalled the elderly proprietor. "Next thing I know he's back with the biggest rabbit I've ever seen–and wearing a saddle to boot!"
The rabbit was originally owned by photographer Earl Heslet, who made his living selling instant "While-U-Wait" sepia-toned pictures to tourists here and in Texas during the winter. He sold out, camera and all, shortly after Spikehorn's Bear Den closed at the beginning of the season in 1970.
Heslet's wooden, black-hooded view camera is now a museum piece in Saginaw's Castle Museum.
The Spikehorn rabbit will go on display as the centerpiece of a new exhibit at the Clare County Historical Society's Clare County Museum in Dover, five miles north of Clare. The museum will open for the 2000 season in early May."

First Data / Payeezy - capturing pre-authorizations in bulk?
Are any of you are using First Data e4 / Payeeze or whatever the service is now named? I've noticed that their web-based software doesn't allow you to capture multiple pre-authorizations.
Let's say you get 100 orders throughout the day, and you want to collect those authorizations, call it a day, and head home. There appears to be no way to settle all of them at once, nor is there a way to, for example, select 90 of them to process but hold off on 10. Instead, you have to painstakingly click through each transaction, one by one, to capture funds and close out the transaction.
Like, what do higher volume merchants do at the end of the day while using this gateway? Hire someone part-time to click through hundreds of transactions? There is a CSV upload option but it requires the inclusion of the whole 16-digit credit card number, which I can't get and don't want to get.
I'm curious if any of you have a solution for this, or can point me toward a setting or strategy that I've overlooked.
I had 3dCart customize our stores to capture the payment when the order status is either moved from "New" to "Shipped" or "Processing" to Shipped". We use authorize.net, but I'm sure they can do the same for that payment gateway. 3dCart was actually quite reasonable on this customization.


Are you the "chosen one" to be the next Sausage master? Milk Co. Ltd. takes off the sausage out of the pan and straight to your Android device! Sausage Legend is the new take on an adventure like you've never seen before in the kitchen. So what are you waiting for? Whip out your smartphones and get ready to swing those sausages while flaming hot off the grill. Also featuring, Sausage Legend for PC.
Lots of new games are taking Google Play Store by storm. Physics games are making a breakthrough. This very same concept is also presented in Sausage Legend in terms of gameplay techniques. While so far, this is the only physics game with a sausage theme on it. The object of the gameplay is to fight with another sausage-toting player onscreen. Simply hold on to the touchscreen device to start hitting one another (with what else but sausages).
The technique here is perfect timing. It also has to do with pointing the tip of the sausage to the right direction. You only need a single touch control button to execute the movement of the sausage though. Nevertheless, it challenges your patience to get that well-deserved reward at the end of every round. The realistic graphics of oozing hot sausages will also whet your appetite for a hotdog on stick at any minute. Therefore, patience, patience and another dose of patience are needed here.
Once the battle begins, you'll notice 3 bars onscreen indicating the level of speed, power and lifeline for each sausage. The colours are represented in yellow, blue and red. It also displays the sausage name because; well, there are over 26 different kinds sausages from different places of origin. At the start of the game, you only get to use the regular red classic hot dog —nothing extraordinary. As the game level progresses, you will be able to collect exotic flavoured sausages, each of different shapes and sizes (and with more power to boot). The game only entails both players to hit the sausages real hard until the other one brutally explodes.
If you played with another popular physics game before this, then you're surely up for a treat. Sausage Legend is fairly easy to learn and needs no amount of practice. Most games lately are either in 2D or 3D design. They also have a fad going on for minimalistic colours and illustrations just to dare to be different from the rest. It's hard to imagine how a real-life looking sausage has made its way to a mobile game. It's kind of weird but in someway, also a refreshing sight to see.
The game is also highly strategic if we are to put it into technical aspect. There is also an element of mystery on who's going to win the match. After all, the hero of this game is not your favourite animated character or some kind of warrior that you honed to perfection. Instead, every winning moment largely depends on one particular hot dog sausage (and it doesn't matter if it looks burnt, overcooked or slightly raw). Occasionally, lucky players will also catch a random hot dog up in the air for them to keep.
The more you play, the better chance to turn your sausage into one mighty meaty hot dog. Not for long, you'll have different new flavours to add into your collection. The game currency is represented by coins, which adds up every time you win. Use these to purchase new sausages to stay on top of the game. There are also free gift giveaways with equivalent coins just by tapping the icon at the main screen.
Each sausage is described at the shop including its name, special powers, how long and how special it is. By all means, one hot dog is better than the other. Some have better advantage when pitted against certain kind of sausage. Sausage Legend also brings a lot of surprises. The funny thing is that there are also foods that show up that doesn't even come close to a tiny Vienna sausage.
And for those who think that size really matters (or in this case, length) when it comes to hot dogs and sausages, well, it's not always the case around here. It's quite a difficult challenge for some to keep the long hot dog steady since it flops easily. The only advantage it brings is probably the ability to reach to the other side fast or do a quick touchdown.
There are 26 sausages all in all but new update always promise to bring in more surprise. The app has so far garnered 4 star rating, which isn't bad for this type of genre with such a novel theme. Some people may refer to this to be among the hottest physics game around. But we think Sausage Legend should be more appropriately labelled under action-battle as inspired by classic video games. Besides, it does make sense since the legendary sausage fight happens inside the arena. No matter how you want to play it, Sausage Legend for PC is also offered in 2-player mode or with AI controlled opponent.

Славоми́р (, ; умер в 821, Саксония) — верховный князь Ободритского племенного союза (809—819); первый из правителей балтийских славян, принявший христианство.

Биография

Начало правления
Современные Славомиру исторические источники ничего не сообщают о его родственных связях с предшествовавшими ему правителями ободритов. Однако, согласно составленным в XVIII веке в Мекленбурге генеалогиям местных правителей, он был младшим сыном князя Вышана и братом Дражко и Годлава. По свидетельству франкских анналов, после гибели в 809 году Дражко Славомир захватил власть над ободритами, не дав вступить на престол Цедрагу, сыну и законному наследнику убитого князя. В 810 году в Ферден ко двору Карла Великого прибыла делегация ободритской знати, просившая императора утвердить избрание Славомира, что и было тем сделано.

В этом же году славяне-вильцы с помощью бывших данников ободритов глинян и смолинцев совершили набег на франкскую Саксонию и разрушили одну из крепостей. В ответ Карл Великий в 810 и 812 годах организовал два успешных похода против вильцев, закончившихся признанием теми своей зависимости от Франкской империи. Предполагается, что во втором из походов участвовали и ободриты.

Франкские анналы сообщают о том, что в 813 году в земли ободритов бежали свергнутый с престола Ютландии Харальд Клак и его братья Регинфрид и , а в 815 году войско ободритов участвовало в походе на данов, направленном новым императором Людовиком I Благочестивым в помощь изгнанникам. Несмотря на то, что франкско-ободритскому войску удалось беспрепятственно пройти всю Ютландию, оно не смогло утвердить Харальда Клака на престоле данов и было вынуждено возвратиться, ограничившись только разорением близлежавших земель.

Мятеж 817—819 годов
Известно, что в 815 году в Падерборн и в 816 году в Компьень ко двору Людовика I Благочестивого приезжали делегации ободритов. О целях этих визитов анналы ничего не сообщают, но со вторым из них историки связывают издание в 817 году императором указа, согласно которому князь Славомир должен был взять в соправители Цедрага, сына погибшего в 809 году Дражко. Предполагается, что в состав этой делегации входили противники Славомира, недовольные его правлением. Решение Людовика I Благочестивого о разделе княжеской власти у ободритов стало первым подобным вмешательством правителей франков в дела престолонаследия у славян.

В гневе от указа императора Славомир разорвал все отношения с Франкской империей и заключил союз с врагами франков, королями скандинавов Олафом и Хориком I. В 817 году правители ободритов и данов организовали совместный поход в саксонскую Нордальбингию, однако не смогли добиться значительного успеха, так и не сумев взять осаждённую ими крепость . В ответ в 819 году Людовик I Благочестивый послал против ободритов войско из саксов и франконцев. В это же время против Славомира подняла мятеж та часть ободритской знати, которая была недовольна его правлением. В результате, князь был пленён мятежниками и выдан военачальникам франков, которые привезли его в Ахен. Здесь в присутствии Людовика I Благочестивого состоялся суд, на котором Славомир был обвинён своими врагами в измене императору и приговорён к пожизненному заключению. Новым князем ободритов по повелению правителя Франкской империи был поставлен Цедраг.

Смерть
Однако уже в 821 году Цедраг, подобно своему предшественнику, вступил в конфликт с франками. Намереваясь возвратить себе власть над ободритами, Людовик I Благочестивый повелел освободить из заключения Славомира, снова провозгласил его князем и отправил в сопровождении доверенных лиц в его владения. Однако в Саксонии новоназначенный правитель ободритов неожиданно тяжело заболел и вскоре скончался. Франкские анналы сообщают, что перед своей смертью Славомир крестился, став первым достоверно известным правителем балтийских славян, принявшим христианство.
