Our mission is to promote the production of dance as a form of art by bringing cultural and artistic awareness to communities through cultural, educational and charitable activities, to function as a dance company, providing a ground for the creation of new dance works by the Founding Artistic Director, to develop future dancers and expansion of audiences, through dance concerts, classes and workshops, to be an active agent in the discussion of dance as a form of art, its philosophy, history, aesthetics and furtherance of the Founding Artistic Director's artistic vision.
Augusto Soledade Brazzdance was featured on WPBT Channel 2 Art Loft Program.
In "Altars", Soledade considers and abstracts aspects of the Afro-Brazilian religion of Candomble in order to comment on divine presence in religious rituals and daily life. He juxtaposes his Afro-Fusion aesthetic with the Cantatas of Johann Sebastian Bach with the intention of bringing together the spiritual sense of two distinct worlds.
In "Kayala," Soledade uses an Afro-Brazilian folktale as inspiration for the creation of the work. The book How Night Came from the Sea, an Afro-Brazilian folktale, told by Mary-Joan Gerson sparked the choreographer's interest to draw ideas from some of the literary images in order to explore the concepts of Night and Day, and create a contemporary dance that is appropriate to all ages. Fast paced, energetic and intense movements are used to represent a sense of Day while Night brings a calmer and soothing aspect to the work. The contrast found in "Kayala" makes the work dynamic, entertaining, and a pleasant celebration of Afro-Brazilian heritage.
In "Dreaming Amazonia," Augusto Soledade looks at the current state of the Amazon forest in Brazil in order to understand it as a natural living environment for indigenous communities, and to juxtapose it to the natural living environment for city dwellers creating choreography that is moving and contemporary. The main objective of this new work is to represent, through dance, complex and universal realities such as the urban versus rural dichotomy, and the potential for transformation as we interact with each other, the world, and our various living environments.
"Cordel" considers the history and social implications of the Argentine Tango and American Hip-hop culture as well as the literary tradition of Cordel in the Northeast region of Brazil as inspirations for the creation of an abstract contemporary dance.
Our role is to seek innovative projects that create fresh content and outlook on global life, considering various cultures and becoming a vessel for relevant contemporary dance repertory. We function as a kind of "Griot" (story-teller) of choreographic ideas. A "Griot" that brings ancient knowledge to the present revering the past, and aspiring after a future that is filled with rich cultural and artistic context. The company performs to a broad range of audiences locally, nationally and internationally, and produces original choreography on a regular basis.
Capturing Brazzdance is an initiative to collaborate with photographers and visual artists to produce images of the company beyond the fleeting moment of performance. We produce an annual photo exhibit that features local photographers and visual artists.
Augusto Soledade Brazzdance offers rich and stimulating internship opportunities for college students, graduate students, and recent graduates seeking experience in dance and arts administration. We provide interns the experience of working behind the scenes in one of Miami's leading contemporary dance companies. Interns have the opportunity to enhance their performance skills and knowledge of dance and arts management while working closely with the staff and artists of Brazzdance.
Miami Dance Mecca is a project that we believe can help us strengthen the notion of Miami as a viable, vibrant and diverse emerging center for dance in the country, thus increasing the rate of local professional dancers who will remain in Miami to pursue a dance career, and attracting out-of-town dancers into our community. Augusto Soledade Brazzdance is a recipient of the 2012 Knight Arts Challenge Award in support of the Miami Dance Mecca Project.

Also, they're inverted, the on color shows up for off and viceversa. I have downloaded the latest version but it didn't help. Can you assist me, please?
Guests must login though, if you make an account (again ) I'm going to approve you as soon as I'm back at the computer tomorrow. Sorry for being difficult, thank you so much for helping!
Done. Although from the picture I don't see what's wrong it looks fine to me. So explain more about it. Also the inverted thing. That shouldn't happen. But I'll take a look.
The thing is that until yesterday the icons used to be colored squares, just like when you have the original folder image in there that sits perfectly in the middle of the square next to the board's name, and now they're sort of slim strips instead. I liked them better before, unfortunately I didn't snap a shot.
Only a few more hours before I can approve your account!
It's supposed to be the strip. In the categroy where it was looking as you prefered it, did you have a board with a the normal on/off icons?
It was all of them actually and they all had the colored icons, they looked like that (the old way, which I prefer) until I added a new board. Is there a way to turn them back into squares now?
First post is updated. I fixed the swapped colors thing Thaïs mentioned. I'm such idiot for that one.
I am not able to use this plugin as nothing will open it, what am I doing wrong?
I can't get the images to appear on my board I put the url in where I am suppose to but when I look there is only a blank spot where the image should be. Any help would be appreciated I am only a rookie at this. Thanks.
I got one image to work but for other topics I can't it's a hunting forum and I got the turkey pic to work but in the bear forum I can't get a image to work. what am I doing wrong?
Quick Q for you, Shorty, at least I'm hoping it won't cause too much trouble.
I'm trying to use the plugin but I noticed (by mucking around some) that it requires the td class=icon to work and it's blanked out in the template modification because of where the icon is set up.
I've tried to unblank it out.. but then it spans almost a third of my board length. So the quick question is: is there a way to make it work with that current board modification.. or is there a way of getting the td class=icon to not take up a third of my board when it is visible?
Board is currently in maintenance mode as it is brand new and very much in the works, will pm as necessary but I figured posting the layout template for the board list would help.
ETA: Disregard me, I found my way through with more indepth poking and things are looking how I want them.
Alright, glad you got it how you wanted it.
Do you guys think I should add in where you can also have different thread icons for different boards?

Bekah Martinez responds to criticism of son Franklin wearing a 'girly' bow
"Is Frank a boy or a girl? Did I miss something?" one person asked.
Oct. 13, 2020, 9:54 PM UTC / Source: TODAY
By Alyssa Newcomb
Bekah Martinez won't stand for mom shaming.
The former "Bachelor" contestant responded to critics on Tuesday after she received rude comments for posting a photo of her 3-month-old son Franklin wearing a bow.
"Do I do things sometimes like this to rile people up? Sure," Martinez said on her Instagram Story. "I love to see them mad. Don't get it twisted. But with (my) leg hair, with putting Frank in a bow, with whatever the hell else I post, I also want to challenge people's ideas of what's right or wrong or what we should or shouldn't do."
The newborn looked adorable in the festive photo. Franklin was surrounded by pumpkins as he sat on a couch. His mom captioned the picture, "FALLing for you more each day."
https://www.instagram.com/p/CGQqKh2J65J/
"Hmmm I don't know how happy he will be later in life that his momma put a bow on his head," one person wrote.
"Is Frank a boy or a girl? Did I miss something?" someone else added.
"Boy with a bow?" another person asked. "Imagine," Martinez replied.
While the cute photo also garnered plenty of supportive comments, Martinez said in her video response that people need to get used to it.
"I think in this particular instance, we should be able to normalize being able to put boys in bows and things that are girly," she said. "What the f–k is girly about a bow? It's literally a piece of ribbon or fabric tied in a certain way. That's dumb."
It's not the first time Martinez has shut down mom shamers. In August, she shared a photo of her tandem nursing Franklin and her daughter Ruth, who turns 2 in February.
There is NOTHING psychologically damaging about nursing through and even past the toddler years," Martinez told critics. "We've got it sooooo backwards now as a society."

The Hunter River Salinity Trading Scheme has proved tremendously successful and is widely (and rightly) supported by the community that contributed to its creation.
While the scheme operates to manage salinity levels in the river as a result of industry discharge, occasional exceedences still occur, caused by diffuse sources of saline runoff. New mines can readily be granted discharge licences, with significant economic and employment benefits for the valley.
However since the scheme started, river salinity has more consistently been below the salinity target.
These improvements have occurred despite a drier-than-average weather pattern since the scheme began. The graph below shows that in previous dry spells (early 1980s and around the turn of the decade) salinity levels were very high. These have not been repeated during the time the scheme has been in operation (which has been similarly dry).


Discussion in 'Corrugated Plastic (Coro) & 3D Printing' started by Gilrock, Jan 19, 2013.
Using eddy's Coro cane instructions I made my first one last night and it turned out really great. The only thing I did different is I didn't want to glue the front panel to the wires so I glue'd 3 small 3/4" squares of wood on the botton and then screwed the top panel to that. I might try to find a slightly different way to mount the front panel because there was a slight bit of shadowing where the wood pieces are. My wife doesn't think it will matter when viewed from a distance.
So then I decided to try a Coro star. I marked a piece for 2 stars and cut out the first one. Then I scored it and started to fold it just to see what it would look like. That's when I realized maybe I hadn't scored it on the rights sides. I had scored every line on the same side because I didn't read the directions. So now that I've read the directions and saw the post about cutting 2 flutes to make a 90 degree bend I think I can make that first one work out anyways.
For making the bends I'm really not sure why it's all that important to have the cuts on the inside. It bends so much better if the cuts are on the outside and since we are spray painting the outside black, sitting it in the yard, and viewing from a distance why would it matter how pretty the edges look?
The last thing I realized is I really gotta get one of those magnifier lights for soldering...the last five years have been really bad on my eyes...lol.
Link to those instructions? Sounds like a great project to look at.
There are several Coro projects documented if you browse the posts in the same section as this one. Theres only barely over a page of posts to look thru.
Ok I'm a little confused. The instructions you linked say to cut on the inside of the bend but the 2nd photo you said is ugly looks like the cuts are on the inside. So are you really cutting the 2 flutes on the outside of the star?
Oh nevermind...I realized you said inside of the "bend" not the "star".
Ask those who have seen my candy canes in daylight, they dont look the best during the day but they look great at night. We are always much more critical on ourselves than what others will be.

It's not every day that we have a chance to send our team to international child passenger safety conferences, so when the International Conference "Protection of Children in Cars" popped up on our radar, we were thrilled to be able to send one of our EU admins to the event!
The conference took place in Munich, Germany, from December 7th-8th 2017, with a pre-conference workshop on the 6th.
This was an exciting opportunity to join 160 other participants from around the globe. They traveled from as far away as Japan and Canada, and the jolly ol' US of A! There were representatives from the likes of Transport Canada, Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), Euro NCAP, ANEC, Volvo Sweden, and many more.
Despite the wide range of participants, the conference language was English.
The conference included over 20 presentations. Unlike conferences that United States-based admins attend where a few topic tracks are presented, this conference had just one set of presentations, all of which were focused on child passenger safety. The topics ranged from rear facing car seats and their history to i-Size, to the results of studies, and more.
The Conference 2017 is dedicated to review the past and the future of CRS development. What has been achieved in the past and is now international state of the art and which are the concrete tasks of the future in regulation, product Innovation and consumer acceptance. Are different strategies needed in countries with high CRS awareness and countries with emerging CRS use? Which benefits are still to be expected by technical innovation and which permanent safety campaigns are necessary to promote consumer behaviour. This will also be in the focus of the panel discussion on the first conference day.
We were especially interested in the efficacy of booster seat design on the response of the Q6 ATD in simulated frontal sled impacts session.
The conference included a variety of yummy foods!
The conference started off after everyone had a chance to enjoy the wonderful refreshments provided by the venue! Prof. Dr. Klaus Langwieder from the German Insurance Association Institute for Vehicle Safety offered a warm welcome to open the sessions.
Our first presentation of the day was by Pierre Castaing from Euro NCAP. He went over the process of establishing criteria for ECE R129 Phase 3 (i-Size), the new European safety standards, and the different steps/challenges involved in that process.
JASPER, a 3D printed dummy who comes with sensors on the chest for even more accurate results. Jasper stands for Juvenile Anthropomorphic Seat-belt Position Evaluation Rig.
Lotta Jakobsson from Volvo Cars Sweden gave a very detailed presentation about rear facing child seats — past, present, and future. She provided photos of the very first extended rear facing seats available in Sweden back in the 1960s, and it was fascinating to see how different they looked from today's car seats! I walked away with the staggering statistic – between the years of 1992 and 2011, Sweden had 15 fatalities of children in rear facing car seats, 2 in infant seats, and 13 in toddler seats. These fatalities occurred in situations where there were fire/drowning, intrusion at the place of child, high severity or failure of the child restraint. This study reaffirmed that rear facing is the way forward.
Suzanne Tylko from Transport Canada and a team from PMG Technologies presented the ATD (crash test dummy) measurements to help better describe the kinematics of a 6 year old restrained with the vehicle seat belt. We were perhaps the most interested to hear these results out of all the sessions.
Ms. Tylko presented on behalf of her colleagues. She showed a variety of crash test videos of different booster set ups and crash scenarios, with the resulting data. Our biggest takeaway from this session is that the further the lap belt is down on the thighs, the more movement/excursion before the hip is engaged. We've previously explored what a proper belt fit looks like: this study affirms that belt fit is crucial to booster effectiveness.
The conference also included a chance to see some car seats!
The second day of the conference kicked off promptly after more generous refreshments!
The presentations started off with a study done by Suzanne L. Cross, and a team from Monash University in Australia. Their paper "How do child occupants really behave during motor vehicle travel?" reports an extensive and in-depth study where the researchers studied families who had volunteered to have cameras and microphones installed in their vehicles.
The study identified "optimal" and "suboptimal" positions for children in child restraint systems. "Optimal" was defined as the child being within the headwings of the child restraint, sitting correctly in a booster. "Suboptimal" was defined as the child's head or ears being outside the headwing protection.
The study found that toys and handheld electronic devices caused the child to move to a suboptimal position within the restraint. Conversation, or not interacting with anyone or anything caused an optimal position. This prompted the question — should sled testing in Sweden be done with the dummies in a suboptimal position to start with?
The next presentation was related to the first presentation of the day. Katarina Bohman from Volvo Cars, SAFER (SE) presented on behalf of an international team. Their study concerned the HIII 6y Child ATD crash test dummy in frontal crash tests. Ms. Bohman showed crash tests along with the accompanying data of the HIII6y dummy seated in a booster seat, in a variety of "optimal" and "suboptimal" positions. The results confirmed that a "suboptimal" position, which was defined as the head/ears not within the headwings could increase head excursion.
The next study was in a lot of ways the main event. Aditya Belwadi from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia's Center for Injury Research and Prevention presented his team's paper on the "Efficiency of booster seat design on the response of the Q6 ATD in stimulated frontal sled impacts". The presentation began with a definition of the different types of booster seats used in this study — high back, backless and heightless. The first heightless booster seat entered the market last year and we were eager to see how this product performed in this study.
The selection of booster seats included high back and backless booster seats from the IIHS "best fit" and "check fit" list — one of each. The results reaffirmed that a 6 year old child is definitely safer in a booster seat compared to nothing, despite what local laws may state. A low lap belt fit may cause the child's pelvis to engage later, meaning the hips move forward before the seat belt engages properly. This is why it's important to know what a correct seat belt fit looks like.
The conference was over — what an experience!
There were so many amazing presentations, but we couldn't possibly mention them all. I was absolutely thrilled to have had the opportunity to be in a room with so many people who all share the same goal: keeping children safer on every ride.

HomeHolidaysIntroducing our new Deluxe Gift Box!
Introducing our new Deluxe Gift Box!
We're super excited to share our new Deluxe Gift Box with you today here at Shisler's Cheese House.
Troyer's Trail Bologna Ring 1 Lb.
Wheel of Colby 3/4 Lb.
Wheel of Cojack (Marble) 3/4 Lb.
The Troyer's Trail Bologna Ring is a chunky, all-beef bologna with a smoky taste, created by the fourth generation of the Troyer family.
Our gift mug is a new edition to the range so that lovers of Shisler's Cheese House can share their pride as they drink their morning coffee. We've filled it with 1/2 a pound of Heggy's Chocolates. We are super proud to include Heggy's Chocolates in our boxes. They match our tradition of excellence in hand-crafted chocolates.
Shisler's Private Label Apple Butter is made from the best locally grown Apples and locally produced Amish Butter, perfect for spreading on toast or stirring into your recipes. We also love our Private Label Mustard, which can be used as a dipping mustard or spread into sandwiches.
Colby cheese is a semi-hard cow's milk cheese native to the United States. It is very mild and creamy. It goes through a washed-curd process, rather than a traditional Cheddar process, making it slightly softer. It is an excellent table cheese and works well in salads because of its mild taste.
Cojack cheese is a blend of Monterey Jack and Colby cheese, marbled together to create a striking effect. Monterey Jack is a buttery, semi-firm cheese which originated in California. It is usually only aged for around a month, making it a fresh, fairly soft cheese to enjoy.
Swiss Cheese is a holey, semi-hard cheese with a creamy color. It has a nutty, slightly piquant flavor whilst simultaneously being somewhat creamy. It's delicious in a sandwich or served cut into cubes alongside salads and hams. It works well with most meats and is particularly good with a beef burger.
You'll also get a wedge of Baby Swiss Cheese, which substitutes water for the milk's whey to slow the bacterial action. This creates smaller holes and a milder flavor. With all of this cheese, we've given you crackers so that you have something to enjoy it with!
Summer Sausage can be kept without refrigeration, which is how it gained its name. Ours is smoked, rather than dried, with a tangy taste. It's certainly too good to be kept for only the Summer season.
We love muffin mix. It's a great way to whip up some quick baking that your guests will love, without any stress.
Finally, because you're clearly a huge Shisler's Cheese House fan if you're digging into this gift box, you'll find your very own Shisler's Cheese House t-shirt!
We know this is going to make an amazing gift for some of your loved ones during the holiday season. Snap one up today!

Swedbank appoints Henriksson as new CEO in bid to rebuild trust

Swedbank has appointed Jens Henriksson, chief executive at insurance group Folksam, as its new CEO as it tries to rebuild confidence in the bank after a money-laundering scandal.
Adds context, background, detail, quotes from chairman and CEO
Aug 28 (Reuters) - Swedbank SWEDa.ST has appointed Jens Henriksson, chief executive at insurance group Folksam, as its new CEO as it tries to rebuild confidence in the bank after a money-laundering scandal.
Sweden's oldest retail bank earlier this year dismissed its chief executive, accepted the resignation of its chairman and lost more than a third of its market value after its Estonian business was caught up in money-laundering allegations that have also engulfed Danish peer Danske Bank DANSKE.CO.
In April, Swedbank admitted some failings in its money laundering processes and promised to launch a comprehensive internal investigation.
The most recent allegations against Swedbank, reported by Swedish state TV in March, say it processed gross transactions of up to 20 billion euros ($22 billion)a year from high-risk, mostly Russian non-residents through Estonia from 2010 to 2016.
"With Jens Henriksson, the bank will have a CEO who combines an experienced leadership, a strong communicative ability and a broad knowledge of the banking and financial industry," Goran Persson, Swedbank's chairman since June, said in a statement on Wednesday.
Henriksson, who will take over the job "as soon as possible", is currently CEO of Swedish insurance group Folksam. He was previously CEO of the Stockholm Stock Exchange and worked at the Swedish Ministry of Finance.
"I feel both humble and honoured, and I am also aware of the challenges ahead," Henriksson said.
"My major task as President and CEO of Swedbank is to rebuild the trust for the bank, to further develop the bank's sustainability profile and to continue the successful digitalisation journey."
Swedbank is the subject of a joint probe by the Swedish and Baltic financial watchdogs and is also being investigated in the United States where it faces the threat of hefty sanctions and fines.
Persson, a Social Democrat who served as Sweden's prime minister for a decade until 2006, pledged in June to "clean the house" and restore confidence in Swedbank.
Henriksson will take over from acting CEO Anders Karlsson, who will return to his regular role as chief financial officer.

The duets album, Genius Loves Company, was released two months after his death. The biopic Ray hit screens in the fall of 2010 and was a critical and commercial success, with the actor who portrayed Charles in the move, Jamie Foxx, winning the 2005 Academy Award for Best Actor for his role.

Q: Can't resolve computer names over VPN, only IP addresses? When I RDP into a machine on my client's network, there are a bunch of PCs on the network I can access by name (e.g. for SVN servers, Jenkins, etc).
However when I connect over VPN on my local PC none of these machine names are resolvable, but I can ping their IP addresses without issues.
Is this something I need to set up manually or an issue with the VPN configuration?

A: I'm not an IT professional but this worked in my company.
On Windows 10, if you have an internal DNS server, you should add it to the DNS servers that the VPN provide. On Windows Server you can setup a DNS server with authority over local names, google is your friend.
Alternatively, the clients can do that on their VPN connection:

*

*open Control Panel, Network and sharing Center, Change Adapter Settings

*Right click on your VPN connection, Properties, Networking

*Select the TCP/IPv4 option (whatever is called on your locale)

*click on Properties, Advanced...

*go to DNS tab

*Add your internal LAN server DNS address, e.g. 10.0.10.1

*Optional: in the edit box "DNS suffix for this connection:" add the DNS suffix, example yourcompany.local

*apply and exit

*disconnect and reconnect the VPN if it was connected

Now, you can access an internal pc with computername.yourcompany.local or, if you added the suffix before, just computername, for instance \\computername in windows explorer, or computername:8080 in the browser for a service on 8080, or with remote desktop.

A: Inside VPN properties you need to specify the server in DNS. Or edit hosts file with IP address to correlate with host name.

A: Your /etc/resolv.conf file defines where your computer should look to resolve hostnames into IP addresses.  The basic problem is that /etc/resolv.conf doesn't get updated when you run openvpn by default.
Here's what you need to do to fix the problem.
1.) Append the following onto your server.conf file on your OpenVPN server machine (typically located at /etc/openvpn/server.conf) to have the server to the client where to look to convert hostnames to IP addresses.
push "dhcp-option DNS 192.168.1.1"
push "dhcp-option DOMAIN mylocaldomain.lan"

2.) Install resolvconf on your client machine and link the standard resolv.conf to resolvconf's version with the following commands to have a function capable of modifying resolv.conf
sudo apt install resolvconf
sudo mv /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.orig
sudo ln -s /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf

3.) Append the following to the bottom of your client.ovpn file to run resolvconf whenver the OpenVPN server is connected to or disconnected from.
up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf

4.) Whenever you run openvpn you'll have to do so with the -script-security 2 flag to allow openvpn to run resolvconf.  Here is an example call
sudo openvpn --script-security 2 --config /path/to/client.ovpn

You can read a more detailed version of the above instructions with some example code of my (working) OpenVPN server here: https://steamforge.net/wiki/index.php/How_to_configure_OpenVPN_to_resolve_local_DNS_%26_hostnames

Dan Stahl (right) insists it wasn't hard finding volunteers to try this new "mixed media" creation, the Paczki-Coney on Paczki Day at Stahls' in Sterling Heights, Michigan.
The Paczki-Coney made its debut at Stahls' in Sterling Heights, Michigan.
I've written about mixed media heat print applications before, but this combination is not something you will find under a heat press. If you're from the Detroit area, there are two words in your food vocabulary that may cause the uninitiated to glance at you with questioning eyes. One is paczki (pronounced poonch-key or punch-key), a traditional Fat Tuesday delight more commonly known as a donut. Specifically, a jelly-filled donut. It's a tradition for many in the Detroit area to indulge in paczkis on Fat Tuesday, or Mardi Gras, the day before Lent begins on Ash Wednesday. And it's long been a tradition at the Michigan Stahls' locations for folks to pass boxes of paczkis around the shop. Another Detroit-area foodie tradition has less to do with Fat Tuesday and more to do with hot dogs. Coney Dogs are a variation on the hot dog, usually served covered with chilli sauce and onions. "Coneys" refer to the hot dogs themselves and it's also local code for the typically Greek-American owned "Coney Island" diners at which they are served. When the Detroit Free Press published a photo of a paczki-wrapped Detroit coney, some brave souls (Dan Stahl and Stephanie Briske leading the charge) set out on a mission to recreate this hybrid. According to Dan, "We were able to create our own Stahls' Paczki Day Coney, with the help of two local establishments. So a special shout out to Mannino's Bakery in Sterling Heights, which was able to supply us with unfilled paczkis. We then sought out the help of LA Coney Island Restaurant in Sterling Heights, where they were willing to top off the paczkis with Coneys for us." This is not a snack for everyone, but it was reported that those brave enough to try one ended up a firm believer. Dan insists, "They are delicious!" I'm going to have to take his word for it, since I wasn't around to give it a try. There's always next year.
Oh my gosh, how we miss Coneys! Husband and I grew up outside of Detroit, and LOVE us some Coney dogs. We live in Texas now, and most people don't even know what a Coney dog is down here! I saw that pic of the paczki Coney on FB from American Coney Island (Lafayette is better!) and wanted to try one so badly!

Is The Internet Making Us Stupid?
Terry Mansfield 2022-11-12
The Internet has drastically changed our lives. Its ability to give us instant access to any information we want has made us more intelligent in some ways. However, there is a growing concern that the Internet may make us dumber.
Searching for information on the Internet.Image by Gerd Altmann from Pixabay
One concern is that the Internet is providing us with too much information. We often need help deciding which sources to trust when so much information is available. We can spend more time browsing the Internet than reading books or learning from real-life experiences.
Another concern is that the Internet is making us more reliant on technology. Today's world is increasingly dependent on the Internet for basic tasks such as booking flights and hotels or finding a job. This reliance can be dangerous, as it can leave us feeling lost and helpless when we don't have access to the Internet.
Ultimately, it is up to us to decide whether the Internet is making us smarter or dumber. We need to be careful not to rely too heavily on the Internet and ensure we are using it for the right reasons.
People have drastically changed their access to information due to the Internet. With a simple click of a button, people can access unlimited data. And while some people may argue that this makes people more intelligent, others say it has the opposite effect.
There is a widespread belief that the Internet has made people dumber because it has created a generation addicted to instant gratification. Instead of taking the time to learn something the traditional way, people now rely on Google to give them the answer to everything. As a result, humans are increasingly dependent on technology and less and less on their brains.
Others argue that the Internet has not made people dumber but has given people the ability to find information more easily. They say that just because people can find information more efficiently, it doesn't mean they are using their brains any less.
So who is right? Has the Internet made us dumber or more intelligent? The answer is it depends. How you use the Internet and how much you rely on it determine how much you depend on it. If you use the Internet to learn new things and to expand your knowledge, then it makes you more intelligent. But if you are using the Internet to avoid thinking for yourself and find the answers to everything, it makes you dumber.
Conclusion
While it is evident that the Internet has profoundly impacted our lives, the question remains whether it has made us stupid. Some argue that the Internet has made us more knowledgeable and connected, while others believe it has made us lazy and reliant on technology. The Internet may or may not have made us stupid, but one thing is sure – it has changed how we live.

Teen guilty of death cover-up
A teenager who travelled to Ibiza and Amsterdam to cover up the death of his mother's lover has been found guilty of perverting the course of justice.
Christopher Redshaw, aged 18, of Newbridge Road, Bedworth, denied charges including perverting the course of justice by concealing the death of his mother's lover George Tweedie, aged 25, during a five-day trial at Warwick Crown Court.
He had accepted lying to Mr Tweedie's family and posting letters to Mr Tweedie's mother, Bettie Tweedie.
But he claimed he did not realise Mr Tweedie had been killed in the lounge of the house he shared with Redshaw's mother before his body was "crudely cremated" in an abandoned car in the Peak District.
No-one has been charged with killing Mr Tweedie.
At an earlier hearing his mother Karen Redshaw, aged 37, of Newdegate Road, Bedworth, and his step-father Colin Redshaw, aged 38, of Newtown Road, Bedworth, pleaded guilty to charges including perverting the course of justice.
The court heard how Mr Tweedie - who met Karen Redshaw through an internet chatroom - was killed in early May by a heavy blow to the face.
When asked about whether there was blood on the carpet on the morning after Mr Tweedie had been killed, the 18-year-old Redshaw said: "It had all been cleared up."
Judge Martin Coates warned the jury to "ignore any feelings of sympathy" for Christopher, or Mrs Tweedie, whose family were "tor-mented by the attempts to hide the truth".
The jury took three hours to come to a unanimous guilty verdict.
The teenager was refused bail. Judge Coates said: "He has been convicted of a serious course of conduct and I think he knowingly involved himself at an early stage."
He added: "I believe he was involved from that point, and I cannot get away from the torment he inflicted on that family."
Christopher Redshaw was remanded in custody until he could be sentenced at a later date with his mother and step father.

In our kitchen, the silverware drawer is flanked by a knife/pot holder drawer on the right and a junk drawer on the left. Actually, there are two junk drawers to its left. They weren't intended to junk drawers. Since the kids do their homework at the kitchen table, I stocked those two drawers with pens, pencils, crayons, markers, scissors, glue and other items the kids might need to do their school work.
Clearly, these drawers have become a favorite dumping spots for the kids.
That's just two drawers, people! Oy, vey.
So that's what we did, my daughter and me. We sorted the pens from the pencils, the Sharpies from the markers. We put aside all the things that didn't belong in those drawers and later put them back where they belonged.
And then we purged. We purged a lot of stuff. Dried up markers and nubs of pencils. Tiny little trinkets that once seemed like such treasures but just looked like so much junk in the harsh light of the kitchen.
But we can only stuff things away in the dark for so long before pretty soon the inward mess starts overflowing to the outside.
I think it's best to approach life from the inside out, don't you?

EXCLUSIVE: Lionsgate has kicked off Cannes by acquiring the US rights to Genius, the Michael Grandage-directed film that stars Colin Firth, Jude Law, Nicole Kidman, Laura Linney, Guy Pearce and Dominic West. The U.S. deal was just shy of $4 million. It was completed yesterday after buyers, including Lionsgate Motion Picture Group co-chairs Rob Friedman and Patrick Wachsberger, were shown the film for the first time late last week by CAA, which brokered the deal for the Oscar-bait film.
Grandage, the Tony-winning director whose stage credits include Frost/Nixon, directed John Logan's adaptation of the A. Scott Berg book Max Perkins: Editor of a Genius. Genius tells the story of a life changing friendship that developed between literary lion Thomas Wolfe (Law) and Perkins (Firth), the respected literary editor. The film was produced by James Bierman, Grandage and Logan. Deepak Nayar, Nik Bower, James J. Bagley, Berg, Tim Bevan, Steve Christian, Ivan Dunleavy and Arielle Tepper Madover are the exec producers. The financing came from Riverstone Pictures and Pinewood Pictures. Lionsgate's Jason Constantine and Eda Kowan are overseeing the project, and FilmNation is handling international.

Once again for this series of Doctor Who, Blogtor Who is looking at all the nods and references to adventures which have gone before. This time its the turn of It Takes You Away. So even if you are not already a Mastermind expert on all things in the Whoniverse you can appreciate the little detail as well. Perhaps you are a very knowledgeable Whovian already but did you spot them all?
In some ways, It Takes You Away is more of a full on homage to the worlds of Stephen King than to Doctor Who itself. But that didn't stop it from having plenty of reflections in the mirror world of Doctor Who gone by.
It Takes You Away is a story which offers up one scenario before it pivots away in a completely different direction. Perhaps to underline how different the final story is from traditional Doctor Who, that first impression is very traditional. It has an isolated location, people mysteriously vanishing, and something unseen outside wanting to get in. Up until the twist, it's very much the beginnings of a standard Base Under Siege story.
It turns out that the real threat comes not from outside, but from an entire universe contained in a mirror within the house itself. But that's not entirely without precedent either. Back in 1981's Warriors' Gate, the Doctor, K9, Romana and Adric encounter a world beyond a mirror. Attempting to escape the pocket universe of E-Space the TARDIS had landed them in a place where co-ordinates read zero. Soon they realized they're trapped in this buffer zone between universes. Unlike the Anti-Zone of It Takes You Away, however, it was a zone of bright white light rather than infinite darkness. There they found the mirror which is a gateway to another universe beyond. Ultimately Romana and K9 stay behind on the other side of the mirror to help the people there, while the Doctor succeeds in returning to his own universe with Adric.
Blogtor Who could be wrong, but I suspect one or two of you may have caught this subtle little reference. When the Solitract adapts to the Doctor's method of opening the mirror portal, the Doctor is momentarily baffled. But then Yaz suggests 'reversing the polarity' of the sonic screwdriver. As the Doctor says, Yaz is 'talking [her] language'. The Doctor's a dab hand of reversing the polarity of various things, especially neutron flows. She first did it back in 1972's The Sea Devils when reversing the polarity of some Sea Devil machinery blows up their entire underwater base. Many other things get their neutron flow polaraties reversed over the years. Including force fields (The Five Doctors), space ships (Mawdryn Undead), and Mire battle helmets (The Girl Who Died).
But it's not just neutron flows. A power exchanger in The Daemons, a time machine in City of Death, Lazarus' machine in The Lazarus Experiment, among many, more things have gotten their polarity reversed by the Doctor at one or another. Memorably, in The Day of the Doctor, the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors simultaneously try to reverse the polarity of the Moment's time portal – resulting in them simply 'confusing the polarity'.
It Takes You Away ultimately see the sentient universe that is the Solitract adopt the form of a frog. Frogs have often been a crucial part of creation myths around the world – probably due to the fact that they utterly transform during their lives. In Chinese myths, for instance, a Frog gives birth to the land and sacrifices itself to allow its body parts be used to make the sky. Meanwhile some Native American traditions the Earth is crafted on the back of a frog, Hanyi. And in ancient Mongol creation myths Buddha used a frog to create the Earth.
Doctor Who concludes this Sunday at 6.30pm GMT on BBC One and at 8pm EST on BBC America with The Battle of Ranskoor Av Kolos by Chris Chibnall. For further broadcast times in your region, check local listings. Series 11 stars Jodie Whittaker (The Doctor), Mandip Gill (Yasmin Khan), Bradley Walsh (Graham O'Brien) and Tosin Cole (Ryan Sinclair).

If you want to buy a house in San Jose, you probably have to make seven times what you would need if you lived in Pittsburgh. These are the most expensive and most affordable metropolitan areas to buy a house, according to data analyzed by mortgage tracker HSH.
Using quarterly price data from the National Association of Retailers as well as local property taxes, and insurance costs, HSH calculated the salaries a person would need to afford a median-priced home in the nation's top 50 metropolitan areas with a 20% down payment. The threshold for afford used is the common one-third of pre-tax income allocated to housing.
You'd need to make just $38,253 to buy a median-priced house in Pittsburgh. The next-cheapest places to buy a home were Cleveland, Oklahoma City, Louisville, Indianapolis, Memphis, Buffalo, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Birmingham, and Detroit.
While houses were pricey in San Francisco, nearby San Jose actually had the most expensive houses, requiring a whopping $274,623 annual salary to afford one. That was followed by San Francisco, San Diego, Los Angeles, Boston, Seattle, New York City, Washington D.C., Denver, Portland (Oregon), and Sacramento.
San Jose's monthly payment of $6,408 was so much higher than the rest of the major cities examined that a San Jose salary could afford both a median-priced house in the second most expensive metro area, San Francisco, and one in Dallas, the 20th most expensive metro area. Pittsburgh's monthly payment is only $893 for a median-priced house.
Across all 50 biggest markets, HSH noted, median home prices had risen 6.55% since last year, but total costs had risen enough to require a 10.58% salary bump to keep up.
The reasons? According to HSH, it's a classic supply and demand issue. Though mortgage rates have risen slightly, a strong economy, low unemployment, and millennials aging into a buying lifestage have all kept demand strong.


Christians talk a lot about Jesus' death. That is good and right. Jesus' death and resurrection are the climax of history. Every other event pales in comparison to these. However, it may not be often enough that we stop to consider the importance of Jesus living a whole human life prior to his death. Why was Jesus born? Why did he live as an infant? A toddler? A child? A teenager? A young man? The Christmas season is an appropriate time to pause to consider the importance of Jesus' whole life, birth to death and resurrection.
Jesus' life was marked by suffering and temptation. Not only was he tempted by the evil one to abandon the way of suffering and gain power through disloyalty to the one he knew as Father (Matt. 4:10); he was tempted by friends and family that wanted to keep him from doing what God had called him to do (Mark 3:21). He was tempted by his own disciples with their own conflicting agendas (Mark 8:32). On top of all this was the regular lot of suffering and trial that comes with being human. Despite all of this Jesus remained faithful and paved the way of salvation demonstrating with his whole life what it looks like to be fully human and fully given over to God.
Even more, in living a whole human life Jesus became for us a sympathetic high priest. This involves two important points. First, a perfect high priest must be sympathetic to those he represents. He cannot be sympathetic if he has not entered into their experiences of both joy and pain. Second, a perfect high priest must be fully obedient and faithful to God. If he were disobedient, he himself would be in need of a priest to represent him before God. So, the writer of Hebrews can say that Jesus, "the pioneer of [our] salvation," was made, "perfect through sufferings" (2:10). That is not to say that Jesus lacked sinless perfection. As "the reflection of God's glory and the exact imprint of God's very being" he was already perfectly sinless (Heb. 1:3). No, the eternal Son of God was only lacking in his human experience. So, he entered into human life being born of a woman and lived a full human life in order that he might become a perfect high priest able to both sympathetically represent suffering humanity before God and to stand before God himself sinless and pure.
Jesus' life was important because he needed to share in our experiences in every respect so that he could atone for our sins with his blood. So, you see, the work accomplished by Jesus' death could not be complete without his whole life. Jesus lived and died and was raised so that we could be restored and reconciled to God and so that we could see what it looks like, and ourselves be enabled, to live a life of holiness unto God. And because he was tempted and suffered like us, he is able to help us when we are being tested (Heb. 2:18). Having reconciled us to God by his blood, our pathfinder is able to lead us down the path of authentic holiness of heart and life to God! Thanks be to God for the fully human pioneering life of Jesus!


A sturdy foundation is easily the most important consideration when it comes to making sure your home will remain standing the entire time you own it. At Rapid-Dri Foundation Systems, we want our customers to be aware of their property and take care of their valuable investment. If you notice problems with your home's foundation, an evaluation by a professional is important for determining the best type of foundation repair method to use.
Cracked foundation, doors, drywall, corners, etc.
The above warning signs could mean that your home needs foundation repair service. These problems can arise when the soil beneath your home is not able to properly support the structure, generally caused by fluctuating water tables or poor original construction. The repairs are performed by installing a new support system under your existing foundation, which will consist of a pier system. This system will successfully lift and level your foundation and permanently prevent future sinking or settling that could affect the home.
Depending on whether you have one of these problems or a combination, there are various repair methods and processes for each of them. In some instances, we are unable to utilize a repair method where we feel convinced that your home will be structurally sound. For that reason, we may recommend a foundation replacement, which involves lifting your home and rebuilding the entire foundation.
If your home needs foundation leveling or foundation repairs, don't wait to contact our team. For scheduling services, call us at (734) 895-9553 or submit our online form for a FREE in-home evaluation and estimate. Our professionals are ready to make sure your home is stabilized and your family is protected.

Poznámky
Systém turnaje mistrovství Evropy do roku 1965 je velmi obtížně doložitelný. Judisté byli vylosováni do klasického pavouku, ze kterého dva postoupili do finále. Poražení semifinalisté se mohli právem pyšnit děleným třetím místem. Je tu však potíž právě s pravidly jednotlivých turnajů do roku 1965. V některých ročnících jsou zmínky o utkání o třetí místo mezi poraženými semifinalisty. Kvůli absenci oficiálních výsledků jsou veškeré informace čerpány z novin a různých časopisů a ty se v tomto směru liší. Z tohoto důvodu poražení semifinalisté nejsou uvedeni. Budou doplněni v případě doložení oficiálními výsledky nebo fotografií ze stupně vítězů.

As the credits rolled and the house lights came up, I realised something – I was the only person in the theatre not crying. People of all ages were sobbing and wiping their eyes, couples were holding each other… I guess what they say about me is true: I don't have a heart. This deliberate pull at the heartstrings, emotionally wrought film did not make me feel much other than boredom.
Now, I have to admit that I was predisposed to dislike this film. I've read the book, the review of which you can read here, and I didn't like it. Having said that, I'm not opposed to being shown an adaptation that improves on the source material; I hoped this might be the film to do it. While A Monster Calls has a lot to recommend itself, it didn't manage to do one key thing: entertain me.
If I were reviewing this film on a technical basis – the direction, sets, acting, script (written by the book's author, Patrick Ness), etc – then this would be a glowing review. It is beautifully shot. The soundtrack is both moving and restrained enough to hit the right emotional notes. Each story told by the monster is animated in a watercolour-inspired style that is beautiful and unique to the film.
But what truly elevates the film from being another soppy after-school special is the acting. There are some exquisite performances from Sigourney Weaver and Lewis MacDougall (Felicity Jones is her usual dull self), and Liam Neeson's commanding voice works well for the monster. I was stunned to see such a young actor do so well with the emotional displays required of him, particularly when playing opposite a CGI tree monster. MacDougall is clearly a talent to watch.
The stylized nature of the fantastical elements also gives the filmmakers some leeway when it comes to creating realistic CGI. When the world of the stories blends with Conor's (MacDougall) world, there's a lovely mix of attempted realism and the dreamlike. While I would still have liked to see some more physical effects (my constant complaint of modern Hollywood), the deliberately stylized effects work.
I must be missing something. Why do people enjoy reading and watching misery stories? Yes, this is ultimately a story of healing, of how a boy can overcome tragedy and go on with his life, but I don't find anything remotely entertaining about watching people be miserable and depressed as their loved one slowly dies. Of course, if it had been the same story but about the family dog, I'd be on board. The film didn't send me on an emotional rollercoaster, working through grief or whatever it was I was supposed to feel; instead, I was bored.
From the opening of the film, you know where the story is going (even if you haven't read the book). There is no surprise or tension beyond knowing the inevitable. I've read other reviews, of both the book and the film, that claim the interesting aspect of the plot comes from the off-center stories the monster tells. But are they really that original? All they do is invert accepted cliché story tropes with endings that are more realistic. While this is something I might have otherwise praised, but there are two factors to it that I dislike: 1) it is too derivative of A Christmas Carol to ever feel original and 2) these stories are the only opportunities to add a little levity to a thoroughly depressing story, but they decide to embrace more misery, misunderstandings, and unhappy endings.
There's so much misery in the world as it is, I have no desire to sit through an hour and a half of fictional misery, no matter how true to the experience it may be.
Verdict: Predictable and dull misery dressed up in a beautiful production and unsalvageable despite lovely performances from the gifted cast.
