Will Fortnite Be An Evergreen Game?
The biggest thing is that this game is free-to-play. Although the game looks somehow cartoonish, the graphics are really good instead of being cartoonish. I have heard many of the people saying that fortnite is so cartoonish and unrealistic but a game should never be judged on its graphics. Graphics are the thing which captures a gamer's mind. But in a long-term gameplay is the thing which should be there. Imagine a game which has graphics very realistic but in that, you have to do the same thing. It will feel so boring after some time. There are many games which have amazing graphics but it does not become a popular game.
Another thing is that the game can be played in a low budget PC, unlike other games. You have to play in low quality but still, you can play.
Then comes the variety of things that the game offers. There are a number of skins, emotes, pickaxe, gliders, backblings and etc. Every day there is a new skin available in the item shop. If you don't want to spend that much on this game you can buy a battle pass and in that, you can get a number of rewards. Till the date, the game offers 7 skins in a battle pass which is a very good thing and battle pass only costs 950 v-bucks. And if you want a different skin then the prizes are from 800 to 2000 v-bucks per skin which is quite expensive for some people.
I forgot about the gameplay which is the main thing about this game. The game contains a map which is neither too big nor too small. 100 players in a battle bus jump in this amazing map and glide towards there location. You can go solo, duo or in a squad. excluding these modes, there are many different modes which come like in every month. There is a playground mode where you can practice building and aiming also you can explore the whole map without interruption. Now comes the building thing which is very confusing to new players. Building is a thing which helps you in combats or creating a shortcut to your destination. 4 types of builds are there: stairs, walls, floors, and roofs. This the main thing why fortnite is famous. This thing is very exceptional. Then comes shooting which is almost in every game so I must not talk about this.
The game is still surviving because of its new modes which are coming and different weapons also.
So, guys, these are my opinions what you think about it.

AMERICAN OIL COMPANY v. MCCLUSKEY et al.
(158 SE2d 431)
Action for damages. Cobb Superior Court. Before Judge Ingram.
DEEN, Judge.
1. The grounds of the motion to dismiss the appeal are without merit.
2-4. Where it appears that the statutory right attempted to be asserted is not applicable, a plea in bar to the action is a proper mode of attack. The plea here on the ground that because of the employer-employee relationship existing between the defendant and the decedent the death action was not maintainable, the State Board of Workmen's Compensation having exclusive jurisdiction of the subject matter, was improperly overruled.
Roberta McCluskey brought suit in Cobb Superior Court against American Oil Company and Henry Grady Disharoon to recover damages for the death of her son Thomas McCluskey. The petition alleged that the deceased was employed by American Oil Company and was at its service station, the place of his employment, when he was killed; that the defendant Mr. Disharoon, at the time an employee of the defendant American Oil Company, carried a pistol in performing the duties of his employment; that Mr. Disharoon handled the weapon in a negligent manner in consequence of which he dropped it on the cement floor which caused the gun to fire a shot fatal to the deceased. There were allegations that American Oil Company was aware that Mr. Disharoon carried the pistol while discharging the duties of his employment and that he drank intoxicating liquors.
The defendants in separate answers denied the material allegations of the petition. American Oil Company filed a plea in bar in which it alleged that the State Board of Workmen's Compensation had jurisdiction to award compensation for the death of the plaintiff's son and that the trial court was without jurisdiction to award damages. The American Oil Company also filed a motion for a summary judgment which was overruled.
The case proceeded to trial and at the close of the evidence American Oil Company moved for a directed verdict. Upon the motion and the plea in bar being overruled, the case was submitted to the jury and a verdict in the plaintiff's favor for $25,000 was returned. The American Oil Company filed a motion for a new trial and a motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict, and when the motions were overruled both the defendants entered timely notices of appeal. Mr. Disharoon, however, did not pursue his appeal. American Oil Company filed an enumeration of errors. That portion of the evidence necessary for a review of the case is discussed in the opinion.
1. A motion to dismiss the appeal was made on grounds that: the notice of appeal filed November 17, 1966, failed to state whether the transcript of evidence was to be transmitted as part of the record; the copy of the record was not transmitted within 30 days; no court order was taken granting an extension of time; the costs were not paid until after a motion to dismiss was filed on January 31, 1967; the attempted effort to amend the notice of appeal by specifying the transcript for inclusion in the record filed February 3 is void, as well as a second amendment filed February 8, and the notice did not contain enough to amend by.
As to these objections: A. Failure to specify whether or not the transcript of evidence is to be included in the record on appeal is not one of the grounds for dismissal of the appeal listed in Code Ann. 6-809. "No appeal shall be dismissed or its validity affected for any other cause." In any event, nothing in the law prohibits the addition of such specification of record by amendment. Amendments to pleadings are generally allowed in the trial court. The notice of appeal when amended complied with the provisions of Code Ann. 6-802.
B. The notice of appeal was filed November 17, 1966. The certificate of the clerk of court states that: "The transcript of evidence was filed August 25, 1966, and the delay in transmitting this transcript is due to the stress of business in this office." Obviously, there was no delay in filing the transcript so as to bring the ruling under Davis v. Davis, 222 Ga. 579 (151 SE2d 123) or Joiner v. State, 223 Ga. 367 (155 SE2d 8). As stated in Elliott v. Leathers, 223 Ga. 497 (156 SE2d 440), the Constitution forbids dismissal of any case where the delay is attributable to the clerk of court rather than to counsel. Even where there is a delay in the filing of the transcript, if it does not delay the docketing and hearing of the case in the appellate court it is not cause for dismissal. Hornsby v. Rodriguez, 116 Ga. App. 234 (156 SE2d 830).
C. Where the record in the lower court is forwarded prior to payment of costs in that court, and the failure to pay costs has not worked a delay here, there is no ground for dismissal. City of Atlanta v. Akins, 116 Ga. App. 230 (156 SE2d 665).
None of the grounds of the motion to dismiss is meritorious.
2. Where the court has no jurisdiction over the subject matter of the suit, jurisdiction cannot be waived or conferred by the parties to the litigation. Ga. R. & Bkg. Co. v. Redwine, 208 Ga. 261 (1) (66 SE2d 234). An action such as this one by a parent for the homicide of a minor child under Code Ann. 105-1307 is statutory in origin, and may be maintained only within the purview of the legislative grant. Burns v. Brickle, 106 Ga. App. 150 (126 SE2d 633). By virtue of another statute (Code 114-103), if the plaintiff's decedent was an employee of the defendant within the purview of the Workmen's Compensation Act, all other rights and remedies of the plaintiff are excluded. The plaintiff in her brief concedes that the plea in bar filed by the defendant attacks the jurisdiction of the superior court over the subject matter of the action. Where the attack is successful, the only proper judgment of the court is one of dismissal. Bartram v. City of Atlanta, 71 Ga. App. 313 (1) (30 SE2d 780), and where the trial would, for lack of jurisdiction, end in a worthless judgment, the objection may be made at any stage. Brown v. Redwyne, 16 Ga. 67, 79. The plea in bar raising this question was not filed too late. "Consent of parties, however, can not give a court jurisdiction of a subject matter when it has none by law; and when this court discovers from the record that a judgment has been rendered by a court having no jurisdiction of the subject matter and the case is brought here for review upon writ of error, this court will of its own motion reverse the judgment." Smith v. Ferrario, 105 Ga. 51, 53 (31 SE 38).
3. There is no merit in the insistence that the defendant did not authorize its servant to employ the deceased. This servant, Mr. Disharoon, testified that he was given general authority to hire such labor as was necessary to assist him in cleaning and removing the defendant's property from the service station, and that he was not instructed to employ only those who had social security cards. Moreover, there was no evidence that the information of any such limitation upon Disharoon's authority was given either to the plaintiffs, the parents of the deceased, or to the boy himself. The defendants gave Disharoon the indicia of authority to employ the deceased to do the work he was engaged in when killed. He was apparently a general agent for the purpose. In Thomas v. Case, 84 Ga. App. 564, 568 (66 SE2d 434), that term is defined: "A general agent is one who has authority to act for his principal in all matters connected with the particular matter or business, or he may be one who is given entire and general control and management of the matter or business of a particular nature." No private limitation upon the agent's apparent authority is binding upon third persons. Mason v. Rice, 47 Ga. App. 502 (1) (170 SE 829); Smith v. Holbrook, Glazier & Co., 99 Ga. 256 (1) (25 SE 627).
The defendant's contention that the deceased was not an employee or invitee on the premises where he was killed because he had, at the time, completed the duties he was employed to perform is contrary to the evidence and the principle of law applicable to the relationship of master and servant. It has been uniformly held that a servant's relationship with his master does not end the moment he finishes the task allotted to him or the period of his employment expires, but that the servant must be given reasonable time to depart his master's premises before the relationship of master and servant ceases. U. S. Cas. Co. v. Russell, 98 Ga. App. 181 (105 SE2d 378). A servant also continues to occupy the status after he finishes his work and while he is waiting to be paid. 99 CJS 857, Workmen's Compensation, 241.
4. It is a basic rule that appellate courts in construing testimony should not lean to strained or illogical constructions but should place on it the meaning manifestly intended and adopted on the trial of the case where this is possible. Here the defendant's employee Disharoon was called by the plaintiff for cross examination concerned entirely with the events of July 14 1964, when plaintiff's decadent was killed. Immediately thereafter defendant's counsel examined him as to his obtaining a gun about a year prior to that date; his showing it to a superior about six months prior; who else had seen the gun; whether he was drinking on the morning of the mishap; when during that morning plaintiff's decedent was employed and how long he worked; whether he had a social security card; how much of the job had been completed when the accident occurred; and whether he ever drank on the job. Here Disharoon replied that one time he and other employees worked all night putting up banners for a party at the Biltmore Hotel several years ago. He stated: "There were several of us there" (putting up the banners.) "Q. Do you know approximately how many employees the American Oil Company has? Just make a rough guess. A. If I was going to guess, I would guess about 75,000. Q. Within the State of Georgia? A. There's over 300 in the regional office. Q. In Atlanta? A. Yes, sir."
Referring to this testimony after the evidence had closed, counsel for the defendant stated while urging its plea in bar based on the contention that the Board of Workmen's Compensation had exclusive jurisdiction: "The testimony by Mr. Disharoon shows that American Oil Company employed more than 10 employees and would be within the Act on it. His sole remedy at law would be a workmen's compensation claim." In reply counsel for the plaintiff, without taking issue with this interpretation of Disharoon's testimony, argued: "We take the position that it is not compensable because there is no standard to measure what like laborers would earn . . . his labor was so casual that he could not by any stretch of the imagination be held to be under the Workmen's Compensation Law." The judge's question indicated that he, too, was assuming the defendant to be under the Act, and was interested in the legal status of the deceased as an employee.
Disharoon was a maintenance man for service stations located in a section of Georgia running from Gainesville to the Alabama and Tennessee lines. He had worked for 17 years. He had a supervisor, Stewart, who had been employed for 11 years, traveling to American Oil Company installations from place to place, and over him there was an area engineer, Brock, who had worked for 20 years. Mention was specifically made of an American Oil Company Bulk Plant at Rome, for which another man, Baker, was distributor, and a station at Dalton, where Disharoon had the pistol shortly before this incident. As to the scope of operations, American Oil Co. is a Maryland Corporation. Regarding its slogan on decals, which Disharoon was in the course of removing at a Rome, Ga., filling station, the following occurred: "Q. Is this slogan for the purpose of encouraging public confidence in your company to buy your products? A. Yes. Q. And millions of dollars are spent by your company in advertising this on television, radio, and in the newspapers to encourage the confidence of the people? A. Yes."
This testimony, although circumstantial in part, is sufficient to establish that the defendant American Oil Company had more than 10 employees in Georgia on the date of the accident, and to demand a finding that the State Board of Workmen's Compensation had exclusive jurisdiction in any action resulting from his death.
FELTON, Chief Judge, and JORDAN, Presiding Judge, concurring specially. We concur in the judgment insofar as it embodies the question whether American Oil Company had ten employees at the time of the injuries involved on the ground that we are of the opinion that this court can take judicial notice of the fact that American Oil Company had ten employees and more at the time of the death of petitioner's son. In all other respects we concur in the majority opinion and judgment.
PANNELL, Judge, concurring specially. I concur in the judgment and concur in the conclusion reached in Division 1 of the opinion, that the motion to dismiss the appeal is without merit, but solely on the grounds (1) that the failure to specify in the notice of appeal whether the transcript was to be transmitted is not jurisdictional, and (2) the transcript of the proceedings was filed in the lower court within the time required by law and the failure of the clerk to transmit the record and transcript to this court within the time required was not occasioned by the fault of the appellant to so specify the transcript in the notice of appeal or otherwise, the clerk's certificate showing the delay was occasioned solely by the press of business in his office.
I do not concur in the following rulings in Division 1 of the opinion: (a) That Section 13 (b) of the Appellate Practice Act of 1965 (Ga. L. 1965, pp. 18, 29) as amended by Section 10 of the Act of 1966 (Ga. L. 1966, pp. 493, 500; Code Ann. 6-809) providing that no appeal shall be dismissed except for the reasons therein given is controlling on this court. It is my opinion that the legislature has no right to determine the grounds for dismissal of an appeal from this court where the cause for dismissal pertains to jurisdictional matters which the legislature itself has provided. That this concept is correct is exemplified by the rulings of both this court and the Supreme Court dismissing appeals because of the late filing of the transcript resulting in a late transmission of an appeal to this court, and dismissing appeals because of a late filing of enumerations of error, neither of which are grounds for dismissal provided by statute.
(b) That a notice of appeal can be amended because there is no statute prohibiting such amendment. A notice of appeal is not a pleading within the meaning of our statutes allowing freedom of amendment as to pleadings, and the mere fact that no statute prohibits an amendment to a notice of appeal does not ipso facto permit such an amendment. If this be a valid rule there would be no necessity for numerous Code provisions, such as 3-115; 6-303; 81-210; 81-402; 81-1201 through 81-1207; 81-1301 through 81-1313; 24-104; 24-2815, 24-2816; 39-1005; 67-2216; 70-302; 70-309; and others. The provisions permitting an amendment to a bill of exceptions (Code 6-1401, 6-1309) were repealed by the Appellate Practice Act of 1965. If an amendment to a notice of appeal is permissible, it is only permissible under the language of Section 13 of the Appellate Practice Act of 1965, as amended, which in part, Paragraph (b), states "[a]t any stage of the proceedings, either before or after argument, the court shall by order, either with or without motion, provide for all necessary amendment, require the trial court to make corrections in the record or transcript or certify what transpired below which does not appear from the record on appeal, require that additional portions of the record or transcript of proceedings be sent up, or require that a complete transcript of evidence and proceedings be prepared and sent up, or take any other action to perfect the appeal and record so that the appellate court can and will pass upon the appeal and not dismiss it." The attempted amendment here was not a necessary amendment to perfect the appeal so as to prevent its dismissal. Whether or not the amendment be allowed, the appeal is not subject to dismissal, so it is not necessary to determine this question relating to amendments.
(c) That where a delay in transmitting the appeal and transcript to this court is caused by the appellant such delay is not cause for dismissal, if the case can be docketed and heard at the same call at which it would have been heard had it been filed on the last day of the time required for its transmittal. I realize that this court in a division opinion has so held (Hornsby v. Rodriguez, 116 Ga. App. 234 (156 SE2d 830)); however, I am not in agreement with that opinion for the reason that the question is whether or not there was a late filing rather than a late hearing and further that the case of Fort Oglethorpe v. Catoosa County, 80 Ga. App. 188, 192 (55 SE2d 753) does not support the ruling made in the Hornsby case. In the Fort Oglethorpe case it did not appear that the delay was caused by the appellant, and one of the grounds for the motion to dismiss was that the certificate of the trial judge required the clerk to send the record in time for the "current term" rather than a later named term. As to this, the court merely held that the Constitution and statutes and rules of court involved controlled the term at which the case was returnable rather than the language in the judge's order, and that the case, because of the time of docketing, was actually returnable to the proper term. No question was decided in that case as was decided in the Hornsby case. Further, it is not necessary to reiterate the doubtful ruling in the Hornsby case to decide the present case.
QUILLIAN, Judge, dissenting from Division 4. I can not agree that the Workmen's Compensation Board had exclusive jurisdiction of any action resulting from the deceased's death. The petition did not disclose, nor was there in my opinion sufficient evidence, circumstantial or otherwise, to support a finding that on the day the deceased was killed the defendant had in its employ as many as ten employees within the State. Borochoff v. Fowler, 98 Ga. App. 411 (1), 414 (105 SE2d 764). While the witness, Mr. Disharoon, testified that at the time the case was tried the defendant had over three hundred employees in its Atlanta office, this was nearly two years subsequent to the date on which the deceased sustained the fatal injury.
Although the rule of evidence is well established that a status once proved to exist continues until there is proof of a change or adequate cause for assuming there has been a change (Roberts v. Hill, 81 Ga. App. 185 (2) (58 SE2d 465)), there is, however, no presumption that a present proven status existed in the past. This is made clear in Glenn v. Tankersley, 187 Ga. 129, 130 (7) (200 SE 709): "The doctrine of continuity, that is, that a state of things proved to have once existed is presumed to have continued to exist until a change or some adequate cause of change appears (Anderson v. Blythe, 54 Ga. 507, 508), does not include a presumption either that something shown to exist will continue in the future, 01 that it had previously existed. The doctrine is limited to the presumption that something which has been shown to have existed has thereafter continued to exist."
In the writer's opinion this court has no authority to take judicial notice that American Oil Company or any other corporation has ten or more employees within this State.
I am authorized to state that Judge Whitman concurs in this dissent.

GUITARS BY DUFFY
DUFFY'S GEAR
RADIO REQUEST
Duffy Kane - The Official Website
The Duffy Kane Story
Written by A. Scott Galloway
Duffy Kane is an American country blues-rock boogie rebel who plays a mean guitar, howls up a sandstorm and writes a helluva insightful lyric. He's a thinkin' man's ax slinger with a lot of fret board facility and even more on his mind. After transferring years of classical violin studies into self taught guitar wizardry, the Weirton, West Virginia-native came up aping hard rockin' yahoos like Ted Nugent and Black Sabbath. He swiftly graduated to the truly challenging fretwork of country and jazz players such as Jerry Reed, Brent Mason, Speedy West, Pat Martino, Mike Stern and all-in-one master Stevie Ray Vaughan. This rocketed his nimble pickin' and chordal harmony chops to Mars. Today, Duffy Kane is a hard working perfectionist who spends a third of his day sheddin' on guitar, a third devouring mind-expanding politico reading ("Atlas Shrugged," for example) and the final third terrorizing audiences at night with his songs that are both instrumentally and lyrically stimulating. Thus the title of his sixth and latest independent CD, Dead Man Walking: songs of life challenges and conscience for an America under siege from the inside as well as diabolical outside forces.
Dead Man Walking is a mind-blowing 11-song collection that finds Duffy crunchin' through an eclectic program from burning instrumentals such as the evening blues wail "Danny Buchanan" and the slick quick-picked "Duffy's Breakdown" to third eye open thought-provokers like "Son of the Republic," the lowdown "Why My Road" and a transcendent, heartfelt reading of "America the Beautiful." Beyond his encyclopedic capacities as a player, Duffy makes his own guitars by hand from scratch (he calls `em "Telebastards") and is heavily involved with the engineering and production of both his guitar sound and albums overall. This all-hands-on-deck approach makes his music surge forth from your speakers like a cheetah finding the cage door ajar.
Duffy Kane came by his musical excellence natural via a father who was a concert pianist and a mother who at one time was a promising folk guitarist (she studied under Park Hill and Joe Negri). "I can't say Mom was directly inspiring to me but she was exceptionally good," Duffy confesses. "My father was an excellent pianist so I had classical music of the highest order drilled into my head from a man who sat in the basement playing it from the day I was born." Duffy was first seduced by the guitar at age 4 while watching "The Beverly Hillbillies." "There was a scene where Mr. Drysdale was pulling up to the bank in his blue convertible Lincoln Continental. The underscore was jazz guitar (played by Hollywood studio legend Perry Botkin, Sr.). The second that cool guitar floated out of the TV speakers, it spun my lil' head around sittin' on the floor playing with my matchbox cars."
Out of high school, Duffy pursued sex, kegs, reefer and rock but focused just enough to earn a college degree in Economics, putting himself through the second half of his schooling playing in Baltimore Top 40 groups. When he finally turned his attention to leading his own band, that focus also shifted to country and blues. "Country guitarists are, without a doubt, some of the most unmercifully gifted players on the planet," Duffy schools. "Some of them are even whippin' the Jazz players' asses! Plus, 9 times out of 10 when you're talkin' Rock `n Roll lyrics, you're talkin' degeneracy and bullshit. So I came back to Country and Blues: way cool, quintessentially American music."
In 1996, Duffy cut his first blues trio CD, Let Your Insides Do The Talking (PMC Records), in Nashville at 16th Avenue Sound, produced by Grammy-nominee Brian Hardin (Jerry Lee Lewis and Charlie Daniels). Keeping a grueling 250 nights-a-year touring schedule, Duffy played festivals and on stages with blues greats such as Johnny Winter, Big Jack Johnson, Tino Gonzales, Debbie Davies, and The Nighthawks – all while cranking out a succession independent releases: Live (1994), Promised Land (2009), Holy Ghost (2010) and Citizen Kane (2012).
Dead Man Walking is the sharpest cross-pollination of Duffy Kane to date. His sense of humor shines through on larks like the closer "Truck Driving Man" and the opener "Roadhouse Boogie Woogie." "I made up the words to that about a 24-year old girl hittin' on my 64-year-old bass player Ted," he chuckles! "The music is a cross between Delbert McClinton and Bill Haley & The Comets from `57 with some Stevie Ray punch." But the raw essence of Duffy is bottled in the sobering "Eyes of the World." "That's about how we've all got to wake up and realize that the bull being hurled at us through the media is just agitating dissension, keeping people separate across political, racial and sexual orientations…even husbands against wives. As long as they can keep us all going at each other, they can keep running their number behind our backs. Then you listen to what passes for music on the radio - what ideas are being pumped out there? Not much... That ain't the America I grew up in, brother, so my music has to say something about that. I pull out my hollow body Telecaster with twin reverb, pop two center mike SM-57s on my `66 Bassman amp, and let my mouth and my guitar do the talkin'."
"I don't consider myself an artist," Duffy concludes. "I'm a craftsman. I want people to see me as a man who's spent a lot of time looking into matters of the world and speaks the truth about what he sees."
Richard Kennedy, Music Director for Roy Clark
"Duffy Kane made me sit up and actually listen - his music is not something that you can just have playing in the background. He draws you into a world created by a sound that comes from experience. The roots of his music are obviously deep yet he takes the listener to new ground - familiar and at the same time uncontaminated by cliche."
Keith Hannaleck,
MuzikReviews.com
"Duffy Kane looks like one tough hombre in his publicity shot and that may be true but if you listen to his music you know straight away that one picture does not define a man. It is the music of Kane that makes him. The sounds of Blues, Americana and Rock will come pouring out your speakers like a raging river, just hang on and hope you can stay afloat! Diversity rules the roost with the music of Mr. Kane and that is what got him his place on our site. He does it all very well."
John Fizer,Graffiti Mag, Music Monthly, Pulp Radio
"For my two cents I'll go on record as saying he is without a doubt of international caliber and probably the best Texas blues player since Stevie Ray Vaughn."
Peter Brush, Herald Mail, Hagerstown, MD
"Kane plays from the ground up with every part of his body engrossed in the music...the band set feet to moving with originals, jazzy BB King interpretations, and Stevie Ray Vaughan covers (like Texas Flood) that were so faithful to the originals it's almost eerie."
JD "Little Jimmie" Silvia, Natchel Blues Network
"....one thing was clear: these cats were professional. Careening across the stage, pausing only to dig in harder on the neck of his stratocaster...If and when Duffy Kane and Black Manhattan visits Tidewater, I want to reserve a front row seat!"
Michael B. Sutton, Composer, Former Staff Producer and Writer for Classic Motown
"Duffy is the real deal. Love the music! Great voice and guitar chops as well...whole lotta soul!!"
Bryan Wodaski,
Queen City Performing Arts Development, Inc:
"Kane represents a man who has found his way, with a very accomplished style that is not formulaic or derivative. There is no need for him to copy anyone. He is an American original."
Craig Keyes,
EMR Productions, Salt Lake City, UT:
"The best unsigned blues artist I've seen to date. You definately don't want to follow him on stage. Hard act to follow."
Maria Martarino, Cumberland Times
"...inspired by the likes of Stevie Ray Vaughan, BB King, Jimi Hendrix, it's infectious and the energy it produces is equal to an atomic blast."
Ron Weinstock, DC Blues Society
"Duffy caught me totally by surprise. He's a showman that puts on a really exciting show."
Zeke Phillips, Full Moon Saloon, Baltimore, MD
"Best Texas Blues player on the East Coast today."
Mitch Mitchell, The Wine Cellar, Ogden, UT
"This man can be downright dangerous!"
Greg Garnett, Annapolis Outlook
"Duffy Kane & Black Manhattan might be the hottest Blues trio anywhere."

Linda Robson thanks Loose Women cast after opening up about OCD battle
Loose Women panellist Linda Robson has penned a heartfelt tribute to her supportive fans and colleagues after she opened up about her battle with mental health. Taking to Instagram on Sunday to share a snap with her Loose Women friends and another with her family, the 61-year-old wrote: "I've always been an open and honest person but talking about my mental health and everything me and my family have been through over the last year and a half was one the scariest things I've ever had to do.
I've always been an open and honest person but talking about my mental health and everything me and my family have been through over the last year and a half was one the scariest things I've ever had to do. I'm overwhelmed by the messages of support I've received over the last couple of days – from friends and strangers. I wanna thank my family, my friends and my Loose Woman team for all their patience and love, I couldn't have done it without them. Looking forward to a healthier, happier year in 2020.

You are an amazing person."

On Friday, Birds of a Feather actress Linda bravely detailed her battle with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, anxiety and depression, and a six-week stint in a treatment facility. During last week's show, she explained that her OCD reached severe levels as a result of taking medication for sleep. "I went to see somebody about it and they gave me a tablet," the star began. "But I had a really bad reaction to it. I had a proper meltdown, I got really bad anxiety, I got really bad depression and my OCD kicked into overdrive."
Her fellow panellists praised Linda's bravery
Linda went on to explain that friend and fellow panellist Stacey Solomon helped her on her journey to recovery after spotting signs of Linda's OCD, such as seeing her need her phone on full charge at all times. The mum-of-four explained, "I'd have the mobile chargers, like five or six of them, ready to charge if it ran out." After six weeks in the facility, Linda came out on more medication than before and it was making her hyper, leading her to turn to alcohol. "The medication they were giving me was making me hyper instead of it calming me down so then I started drinking again because I couldn't face the day," she said.
Despite having an incredibly difficult couple of years, Linda's return was met with great applause and support from her fellow panellists. Stacey, Kaye Adams, Nadia Sawalha and Jane Moore all commended Linda's bravery and strength, as Linda finished: "I hope it helps people."

Watch Top Hat online in high quality and free on Tornado Movies!
August 03, 2005 ...even after seventy years, the same elements delight us all over again. Good songs, good dancing, and good stars never go out of style.
April 24, 2009 Arguably the classiest and funniest of the RKO Astaire-Rogers musicals.
June 24, 2006 Top Hat does not glorify wealth or upper class status - if anything it continually pokes fun at it.
January 11, 2008 This one can't miss and the reasons are three -- Fred Astaire, Irving Berlin's 11 songs and sufficient comedy between numbers to hold the film together.
January 20, 2006 Because we are bound by gravity and the limitations of our bodies, because we live in a world where the news is often bad and the prospects disturbing, there is a need for another world somewhere, a world where Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers live.
April 24, 2009 If you want only one Astaire-Rogers musical, Top Hat is obligatory.
January 11, 2008 This 1935 musical finds Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers at the top of their form.
April 24, 2009 Finally, thanks more to Fred Astaire than any other single influence, the character of musicomedy in the cinema has now completely changed.
March 21, 2008 The fourth pairing of Astaire-Rogers is one of their best and RKO top grosser of the year.
April 06, 2010 Most of what I liked about Top Hat centers around its two stars: full of energy and grace, they breathe life into the film whenever it threatens to lose its luster.


This past week, we had the joy of seeing our pastor from Georgia and his wife. We met them in 2011 and were in their church for 3 months and clicked the very first day we met! They have become very good friends and counsellors to us. So, they were in the area this week and came to see us… well, really, they came to see our little man (joking… but not really!).
We had a great afternoon and evening together where we laughed, shared our joy but also share our hearts and struggles. It is always good to catch up with lifelong friends because you pick up right where you left.
Now, why southern belly laughs? Well, southern because they are from the south… belly laughs… you will have to look at the three videos! Enjoy.
Cette semaine, nous avons eu la joie d'avoir la visite notre pasteur de Géorgie et son épouse. Nous les avons rencontrés lorsque nous étions en Géorgie et nous étions dans leur église pendant 3 mois. Nous avons cliqué avec eux tout de suite et ils sont devenus nos amis et conseillers très vite. Ils étaient dans la région cette semaine et sont venus nous voir… enfin… ils sont vraiment venus pour voir le bébé en fait !
Nous avons passé une belle après-midi et soirée, nous avons ri, partagé nos joies mais aussi nos cœurs et nos peines. C'est toujours bien de voir des bons amis parce qu'on a l'impression de ne jamais les avoir quittés.
Bon…. Gros rire du sud ? Le pasteur et son épouse sont du sud… et gros rires ??? il vous faut regarder les trois vidéos ! Profitez !
Thanks Janice 😉 he is a happy little man!!
We had a great time with y'all!! What a beautiful family!! We are thankful to have you in our lives. It was a blessing to be able to have quality time with you all, and to get the sweet loves and sugar from little man Jude. We look forward to having you home with us soon!!

Is it appropriate for Imaam to repeat same first khutba in every Juma namaaz?
The khutbah is very much similar to ibadat and zikr. Therefore, it is no wrong to deliver same khutbah on every Jumah. Yes, if one is capable of delivering new khutbah on every Jumah on different subjects as per the circumstances, then it is a good thing.
After the first azaan of Jumaa can we do business, trading, sleeping?
Is it permissible under shariah to make short announcements regarding masjid finances and forthcoming events after finishing the english bayaan but before the first azaan for Friday Prayers?
Is it a sunnah to hold an aasa by imaam at the time of delivering of juma khutba?
Is it permissable to give khutba in any other language besides arabic? If someone is doing that what we must do?
I am serving in private organisation some 50km from city.There are more then 300 employes in our organisation.A Masjid is built by the adminstration which has capacity of about 400 nimazis.Due to some reasons, adminstration does not allow employees to go out for Salatul Jumah.Also ,for security reasons adminstration does not allow outsiders to come and offer jumah in project masjid.Therefore a very large numbers of employees donot offer Salatul Jumah. Hazrat Mufti sb, Pl. guide us that is it correct to leave Jumah prayer under these circumstances? Some of our friends says that it is not advisible to shed a Farz permanantly.
Can you please tell me that is it allowed to celebrate Eid with Makka and furnish me with the relevant proofs.
Please tell me, what used to be the activities of our beloved Prophet Mohammed (s.a.w.) on the day of Eid-ul-fitr?
The imaam at our local mosque gives a speach after reading out the two khutbahs before reading the jummah farz. it is hanafi maslak mosque. he has been told not do this bayan by another alim but he does not listen. he says it is allowed by imaam shaafi. he also makes everyone perform zikr before magrib and after fajar. prays tahajjud namaaz with jamaat in ramadhan and other nights like laylatul barah. please can you give detailed reply with daleels as this alim does not listen to anyone and many hundred people follow him.
Mufti Saeed Ahmed Palunpuri was in London this Ramdhan and we benefitted from his as never before - he safe guarded our farz fast by explaining the whole masail of Moonsighting and i prayed my Eid salaat with him. Can you please answer 2 questions for me:- 1st Question "Here in the UK all our Deobandi edara's and most of their UK akaabereen (not all) follow Saudi in moonsighting. Must we follow them or should we not (inlight of fatwa from Deoband, Shaharanpur, Dhabel and other world fatwas) as Saudi's moon sighting is not reliable?" 2nd question Do we have to follow our elders (Respected Scholars and Muftis) of the UK if we have doubt in the sighting of the Saudi moon?
What is the Hanafi viewpoint on the eating of shrimp? Question 2 what was the viewpoint of Imam Abu Hanifa (R.A) on dilivering the Friday's Khutba on the mimbar i.e. in Arabic or any other language. Question 3 What is the Hanafi's viewpoint on dilivering the Friday's Khutba on the mimbar i.e in Arabic or any other language.

Home News Maduro activates the Defense Council in response to the US "imperialist threat"
Maduro activates the Defense Council in response to the US "imperialist threat"
The United States threatened Venezuela with "strong" economic sanctions if the National Constituent Assembly took shape, to which Maduro has responded by activating the National Defense Council because his country "does not give orders to any foreign government."
Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has activated the Defense Council of the Nation (Codena) in response to the US "imperial threat" after the White House threatened the country with "strong and prompt" economic sanctions if The National Constituent Assembly was concluded.
"I have decided to activate the Defense Council of the Nation in accordance with Article 323 of the Constitution, in order to respond fully to the Imperial threat … The response will be very firm, in defense of the historic Anti-colonial and Anti-imperialist Patrimony of our homeland," Maduro wrote in his Twitter account. The president said that Venezuela "does not receive orders nor is it ruled by any foreign government."
The state channel VTV then transmitted images of the installation of the National Defense Council in the presidential palace of Miraflores in Caracas, attended by the members of the Council and other senior officials of the so-called Bolivarian revolution invited by the head of state.
Article 323 of the Venezuelan Constitution says that Codena is made up of the country's president, the Vice President of the Executive, Tareck El Aissami; The president of the Supreme Court, Maikel Moreno; The president of the Moral Council, Tarek William Saab; The Minister of Defense, Vladimir Padrino López; And the president of the Parliament, the opponent Julio Borges. However, the Executive does not recognize the Parliament for having been declared in contempt by the Supreme, reason why it has not invited his boss to participate in any of the three meetings convened in the last ten months.
Codena, according to the Magna Carta, "is the highest organ of consultation for the planning and advice of the Public Power in matters related to the integral defense of the nation, its sovereignty and the integrity of its geographical space."

Can Hollywood Save the World?
by Gretel Schueller
Tinseltown is going green. The characters in Home Improvement discuss emissions trading. A West Wing episode centers around energy efficiency and garbage disposal. The cast of Friends pours milk out of reusable glass bottles. Daughter Cassie on Family Law conducts an energy audit of her family for Earth Day, prompting mom to trade her sport-utility vehicle for a hybrid. From props to plots, Hollywood is getting greener, thanks to the Environmental Media Association, a four-person nonprofit in Los Angeles.
�You have to realize that people sit in their chairs, and every week these television shows come into their lives,� says Patie Maloney, director of special projects at EMA. These programs can be incredibly powerful. As an example, she points to Jennifer Aniston of Friends. �Every time she cuts her hair, within twenty-four hours everyone is in the beauty shops trying to copy it. If a haircut can do that, you can also have recycling bins in kitchens or electric vehicles in driveways.�
EMA is the brainchild of two Hollywood power couples: Lyn and Norman Lear, and Cindy and Alan Horn. Norman Lear broke television ground in the 1970s producing the series All in the Family, one of the earliest shows to address racism, sexism, and other hot-button issues. Alan Horn is chief operating officer of Warner Brothers. In the late 1980s, when both couples were expecting their first children, they started thinking about the world they�d be bringing their sons and daughters into--and decided to put the power of the entertainment media to work for the environment.
Since its creation in 1989, the Environmental Media Association has become a major Hollywood player. It doesn�t hurt, of course, that its board members--like Michael Eisner, John Travolta, Jane Fonda, Wendie Malick, and Ed Begley Jr.--have clout, and that Hollywood is famously predisposed to support traditionally liberal causes.
When a writer needs statistics or help with fact-checking, or a set designer needs assistance tracking down props, such as Earth Day posters or curbside recycling bins from the actual town in which a shoot takes place, they call EMA. In addition, the group holds several well-attended workshops each year on key environmental issues.
The group�s most important work, however, comes out of one-on-one meetings with writers and producers. Like door-to-door salesmen, the staff pitches tailored story ideas, characters, and stage sets with environmental themes that can be subtly woven into existing story lines. Because television episodes and films devoted entirely to environmental issues (like Erin Brockovich) are rare, the group focuses on subplots, such as a conversation in a coffee room. One example of EMA�s outreach is the Nash Bridges character Harvey Leek, who drove an electric roadster part of one season and refers to conventional cars as �gas guzzlers.�
Sometimes, however, the prop just speaks for itself. That�s because producers take pains to make sure every set is realistic, explains EMA�s Jennifer DePeralta. So putting recycled paper next to the copy machine and using mugs instead of disposable cups at the coffeemaker, she says, �are all ways to get viewers to think about these things and see that something like recycling can be routine behavior.�
DePeralta�s group also offers the perfect Hollywood-style incentive: a gala awards ceremony complete with a gourmet dinner of organic food and wine. At the tenth annual EMA awards last December, the 700-plus guest list included actors Sharon Stone and Chevy Chase and talk-show host Bill Maher.
EMA also looks at the way shows and films are actually produced. Called �the Greening of Hollywood,� this effort is aimed at the people behind the scenes--camera operators, set constructors, production assistants--to reduce backstage waste by reusing sets, printing daily script revisions on both sides of the sheet, using recycled paper, and so on.
The green crusade is paying off. �The number of shows and movies with environmental themes has increased over the years, and part of it is because of advocacy groups like EMA,� says Martin Kaplan, associate dean of the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Southern California. According to Kaplan, using fictional vehicles like serial dramas is far more effective than simply airing public-service ads. �When people are caught up in a story, they tend to pay more attention to those kinds of messages.�
Those plugs don�t have to compromise plot or character. �The actors, the directors, the writers--they�re all stepping up to the plate and realizing this is a very easy thing to do,� says Maloney. It�s a good thing too, she adds. �We realize that thirty years of hard work could really be set back with the Bush administration.� It�s an irony of the times that people could do better for the earth by following the lead of fictional characters instead of their president.

In this festive fritto misto, vibrant spring veggies get to be the star of the show! Fat asparagus, sweet baby carrots, tender young broccoli rabe and crunchy fennel are coated with a super-light beer batter, then pan-fried in olive oil and served with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
When you walk in with these piping hot fritters piled high on a tray, your guests will instantly salivate… and waste no time digging in!
And the bonus for the chef? This fritto misto is easy to prepare and cooks in minutes – a win-win all around!
An Assyrtiko from Santorini is perfect for this delectable hors d'oeuvre. These bone-dry, savory white wines are filled with a wonderful minerality, reminiscent of a sea breeze, and they boast lemony notes that are perfect with the fresh squeeze of lemon juice. Plus the crispness of the wines cuts through the richness of the fritters. Alternatively, serve a zesty, crisp Sauvignon Blanc from Sancerre or Quincy in the Loire Valley.
Step 1: Snap the ends off the asparagus. Peel the carrots and leave them whole (or, if using medium carrots, peel them and slice them in half lengthwise). Trim 1″ off the bottom stem of the broccoli rabe. Cut the fennel bulb in 1/2″ wedges through the center core, so that the slices remain attached. Pat the vegetables dry and place them on a tray.
Cook's note: The vegetables can be prepared up to 4 hours ahead, covered and refrigerated until ready to use.
Step 2: For the batter – Place the flour, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Whisk until well blended. Add the beer and whisk until the mixture is smooth. Let stand for 5 minutes and then add the egg. Whisk again until well incorporated.
Step 3: Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat. Add enough oil to come 1/4″ up the sides of the pan. When the oil is hot, add a handful of the spring veggies to the batter and toss with your fingers until well coated. Let extra batter drip into the bowl (the vegetables should only be very lightly battered) and then add the vegetables one by one to the pan. Pan-fry for 2 to 3 minutes until deep-golden. Flip the vegetables over and continue to pan-fry for 1 to 2 minutes until deep-golden. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels. Repeat until all the veggies have been pan-fried, reducing the heat after the first batch so the oil doesn't burn. Sprinkle the fritters with sea salt and arrange them on a large serving platter, along with the lemon slices. Squeeze the lemon over the fritters just before eating them.
Cook's note: Serve the fritters piping hot; they'll become soggy as they cool.
I tried many different kinds of spring vegetables for this recipe. And although I picked my favorites for the final recipe, here are a few you might consider adding to the mix: baby zucchini (about 3″ long – sliced in half lengthwise), scallions (left whole) and sugar snap peas.
Thanks for the recipe and great choice of vegetables.I always make your recipe for zucchini fritters,and the beer makes them so light and tasty.I will try this recipe soon,video so helpful.
Thank you for your comment, Lily! I hope your fritto misto turned out wonderful!
I'm definitely salivating! What a great way to serve a variety of vegetables and satisfy so many different tastes! Definitely need to give this a try! Thanks Vivianne!
This is so much like Japanese veggie tempura. Your fritto misto look so crunchy and inviting.


Seamless holography is the new standard of excellence within the packaging industry. With ITW Foils' advanced capabilities, the troublesome seam in holographic film can be eliminated to create apparently perfect holographic surfaces. Seamless products make holography viable in new markets and applications. They offer endless possibilities for designers who are unrestricted by size, layout logistics, or decorating limitations. They offer visual consistency for brands, and overall efficiency improvements for printers. Faster speeds and waste reduction are key operational advantages to using seamless foil and films, as is the fact that seamless products require no costly eye mark equipment for registration. For designers and brand owners, superior visual quality with consistent color and surface integrity along with greater creative latitude make going seamless a choice that pays dividends in differentiation. Combine this technology with custom holographic patterns and the sky's the limit.
How can we help your project shine?
To maximize run efficiency with multiple foil colors, allow ample clearance area between colors in your layout (discuss run direction with vendor).
Foil stamping thin, tightly grouped lines may require a special foil formulation to avoid distortions in the paper. For production compatibility, see the ITW Hot Foils Grades chart.
When overprinting foils, Ink and foil both should be checked to ensure compatibility, as not all inks work for overprinting and not all foils will receive ink. UV printing is generally recommended.
Consider the typical lighting environment of your viewing audience when viewing colors. For the critical color matching required by certain brands, partnering with a ITW Foils for custom color formulations can be a great solution.


the scale of anthropological and ecological transformation due to the interaction between evolutionary factors (social, cultural, economic, and technological) has no historical precedent.
These directions are the result of a number of fundamental changes that are irreversibly transforming our daily lives, our way of thinking and perceiving the world and our way of living together. Among these fundamental changes are: improvements in life conditions, life expectancy, literacy and gender equality; changes in domestic and international political institutions; and the breakdown of natural equilibria.

CNN — Police are searching for a gunman who allegedly walked onto a residential driveway in Washington state and shot a Sikh man in the arm, authorities said.
The gunman allegedly told the man "Go back to your country." Police are investigating the shooting in Kent as a possible hate crime, according to CNN affiliate KIRO.
The victim is a US citizen, originally from India's Punjab province, Seattle-area Sikh community leader Jasmit Singh told CNN.
The conversation became heated and the man threatened the victim, calling him names and yelling "go home to your country," before he pushed him to the ground and pulled out a gun.
The victim lost consciousness, only realizing he had been shot when he regained consciousness, Singh said. He was discharged from hospital Saturday and doctors expected him to make a complete recovery, Singh said.
"We're early on in our investigation and the shot resulted in non life-threatening injuries, however we are treating this as a very serious incident," Kent police chief Ken Thomas said in a news conference broadcast by KIRO.
Thomas said police were investigating the shooting as a hate crime, KIRO reported.
"To think that this could happen in our community was very surprising and extremely disappointing," Thomas said. "This is the first incident of this magnitude that I'm aware of in the city of Kent.
The FBI's Seattle office said it was investigating alongside Kent police.
"The FBI remains committed to investigating c rimes that are potentially hate-motivated and we continue to work with all our community partners in the Seattle area," a spokesperson said in a statement.
India's Minister of External Affairs Sushma Swaraj tweeted that she was sorry to hear of the attack.
Swaraj said she had spoken to the victim's father, who told her his son had suffered a bullet injury to the arm and was "out of danger" and recovering in a private hospital.
India's Foreign Ministry said it was in touch with local authorities and had offered assistance.
"What we heard from the victim himself is that the shooter asked him when are you going back to your own country?" spokesman Gopal Baglay said.
MaryKay Loss Carlson, the top diplomat at the US Embassy in New Delhi, tweeted her thoughts as well.
"Saddened by shooting in WA. Wishes for a quick and full recovery. As @POTUS said we condemn "hate and evil in all its forms," she said.
A tenant at the property where the shooting took place told KIRO she witnessed her landlord being shot before the gunman ran away.
"The guy told him to go back home," Susan Livie told the station.
The Sikh Coalition said members of its community were at heightened risk of hate crime attacks — partially because their faith required the wearing of turbans and beards.
In a statement, spokesman Rajdeep Singh said it's important the Kent shooting be investigated as a hate crime.
The coalition said the Kent attack had similarities with the shooting of two Indian immigrants in Kansas in February.
The coalition said violence against minorities had increased since the presidential election and hate crimes needed to be identified as such.
"Investigating this as an anti-Sikh hate crime is critical, because without our government agencies recognizing hatred for what it is, we can't combat the problem," Jasmit Singh said.
Jasmit Singh said approximately 50,000 Sikhs lived in Washington, — 30,000 of them in the Kent-Renton area.
"Based on anecdotal evidence, more and more people are saying inappropriate things to Sikh men, the stigma attached to being a racist has been erased from the community," he said.
Jasmit Singh said the White House needs to speak out against racism and bigotry.
But Kent Police Department and City Council have provided a lot of feedback and met with the community, he said.

Keith Lee Prepares to Bring Fight to Karrion Kross at WWE NXT 'TakeOver: XXX'
Scott Fishman August 21, 2020
Keith Lee has been a dominant force in WWE. His momentum rolled into a victory over Adam Cole at the Great American Bash in July for the NXT championship. Fans basked in his glory as he ended the record-breaking reign of the Undisputed Era leader while also holding the North American title. It was a milestone win Lee dedicated to his trainer "Killer" Tim Brooks, who had recently passed. And so began the "Limitless" era. But winning the gold is one thing and keeping it is another.
Coming up at NXT TakeOver XXX is a unique test in the unhinged Karrion Kross. He, along with the devious Scarlett, has been playing mind games ahead of this anticipated battle. On an episode of NXT, the mystifying duo were responsible for a fireball to Lee's eyes during the contact signing. Ahead of the showdown, we caught up with the imposing champ to talk about moving to the top of the mountain and bringing out a new side of his personality.
There was a video released of you working out with WWE champion Drew McIntyre. I thought that was pretty cool, seeing you together preparing for your respective defenses this weekend.
Keith Lee: For me, it was a test of how I responded to brighter lights because I've struggled with light and sensitivity to it. That was most of what it was about. We shared some stories. It was just two guys having a good time and training. That's all it really was.
Both of you have had runs in Evolve. The promotion's library is among the independent promotions currently available on the WWE Network. What is the feedback you've gotten?
I haven't had a chance to look at it myself. I have seen a lot of interest and excitement from people. I'm really happy people are able to enjoy that. I hope more people take the time to check it out and get the idea of what growth was like for me before getting to WWE. Coming out of my shell, trying new things.
Is there one match you'd recommend fans check out from that period of your career?
I would probably recommend anything that was basically me versus Matt Riddle or [Donovan] Dijak. Even my match versus Ricochet. I think it was in Orlando when WrestleMania was there.
You've been able to show a different side thanks to the feud with Karrion Kross. Your promos, too, have a little more intensity behind them. What have you been channeling to get that out?
It's nothing new, my man. It's someone who pissed me off, and now I'm mad. It's really simple. There are a lot of guys on this roster I respect. Even some of the ones I don't like. Adam Cole, I respect him. As an athlete I respect what he can do in a wrestling ring. Dijak has a tendency to lose his cool, really vicious and aggressive. I respect him because of what he represents in the wrestling ring.
Now we have a guy who apparently has paid off our sound guy, light guy and some of our production team to get our stuff tampered with and to try and intimidate me or call me out. I invite him to the ring, and he doesn't show up. He talks a game but doesn't walk it. He claims he wants me, but he will fight everyone but me. He is full of crap. He is a chosen guy who is here. While he has proven himself capable and wins matches, he is a dude who is false. He is not real. I don't like that. What he represents isn't for competition. He isn't representing NXT. I'm not impressed. I'm upset. This is just a guy who pissed me off, and now I'm mad.
As far as that fireball, tell me what that was like. We don't see it very often on WWE TV.
Apparently we have a fire mage in WWE now. I thought I had trained myself with a fire resistance of nine, but they cast 13, and it sucked. I've been wearing glasses virtually everywhere that I've gone for the past week or so. It's weird. I want to meet the guy face-to-face, but these are the actions that are taken. It may be cool for some and a meme for some. If you want to laugh at my pain, good on you. Just understand that I'm not going to have a competition with the guy. It is a fight. I'm going to beat the hell out of him. That's just the way it goes.
What has been the biggest challenge moving to the top of the brand?
Aside from getting hit in the face with a fireball, it's not to say there has been a challenge. Taking the championship was the challenge. Representing a championship I can do in any place. I can do it anywhere, and I can make a championship anywhere I am because that's what I do. However, in this circumstance it was more about what to do with these championships. Originally, I had ideas of people I wanted to fight and put it on the line. At the end of the day, the most challenging thing has been getting face-to-face with this dude because he does everything in his power to avoid it.
Another match on the card people are especially excited about is Adam Cole vs. Pat McAfee. How well do you think the NFL star will do?
No idea. My respect for Adam Cole is through the roof. I know he can fight. I know he is a competitor. I know he'll bring it. It's hard for me to see an unseasoned person showing up in NXT and beating the guy I beat for that championship. It's hard for me to wrap my head around that. I wish him all the luck because the guy has the cojones to make something happen. He is going to need some serious help. I don't know. Someone is probably going to get kicked in the face a lot.
Whether it was against Johnny Gargano or now against Karrion Kross, you're getting the chance to work with your girlfriend, Mia Yim. What's it like taking the offscreen couple on screen?
It has been really weird. I feel like her and I work really well together just because of how well we know each other. It's kind of easy, but maybe too easy. Maybe it made us a little arrogant and too confident. I understand how tough she is and the type of athlete she is. But it can also make us a little careless, which is what led to me causing us to get beat [clears throat and laughs].
With this being the 30th TakeOver, do you have a favorite match or moment?
One of my favorites was against Dijak from TakeOver: Portland because it was my first time in Portland and my first championship defense of the North American championship. I think it was my first TakeOver singles match as well. So a lot of firsts. It was me also representing a former coach of mine who had passed away to cancer. Not wrestling related but football related. It had a major impact on me.
What do you think of the legacy of these shows and what they've become? Does headlining this one feel more special?
I don't know if it matters more because it is 30. The thing that is cool about it is to know TakeOver has happened so many times and to know I'm on number 30 itself. Just to see where NXT has come from. The growth of NXT. A lot of people were angry because I relinquished the North American championship. They don't understand how much I love NXT. It was something I watched before I even thought about coming to WWE. Seeing where it has been to what it has grown into. It's a damn fairytale. It's so cool to watch what has happened to it. Now to be a part of it and part of its growth, you can't beat that.

Q: How to keep RGB and HSL integer values consistent when converting back and forth? I have code that converts RGB values to HSL values as well as HSL to RGB.
It works fine, however, I have a color picker that can work in either rgb or hsl.
The problem is, that they both use integer values..
So if I convert RGB to HSL, I get fractions that need to be rounded. When I convert back to RGB, the values aren't the same as they were- a number is usually of by one (a value of 123 might become 124 after going RGB>HSL>RGB).
I find this odd because in Photoshop, they have the same color picker- you can choose between RGB and HSB, and when you convert back and forth, the RGB values remain consistent and they use integer values when you pick in both modes.
How do they accomplish that?

A: The color spaces do not have the same size for integral values.
HSL has black (lighness zero), plus white (lightness 100), plus 359 * 100 * 98 other colors (since hue zero is the same as hue 360), making 3,518,202 integer triples.
RGB has 256 * 256 * 256, or 16,777,216 integer triples, so multiple RGB values can map to the same HSL value - in the ration of about 4.7 to 1.
To maintain consistency when changing picker modes you may need to maintain HSL values as floating point values internally, but show integer values in the picker. Maintaining RGB values as floating point internally may help as well.
Another issue I have seen in color software is to round RGB values obtained from HSL to RGB conversion to the nearest integer in the range 0 to 255. I regard this as problematic because it means rgb values 1 to 254 contain 1/255th of the range, while zero and 255 only get half of 1/255th of the range each. The alternative I preferred was to map floating point RGB component values of 256 to 255 (or 255.99999 if you wish) and take the integer floor of the resultant color component. That way integer component values of 0 to 255 get (1/256)th of the range each.
At the end of the day, if you wanted users to be able to enter an HSL value that they used before and get exactly the same color, you would need to allow HSL values with decimal places.
