Louisiana Judge Who Blamed Use of Racial Slur on 'Sedative' Will Request 'Indefinite Leave' From Bench
Marisa SarnoffDec 16th, 2021, 3:22 pm
Judge Michelle Odinet, and the footage of a family using the n-word while recounting a failed burglary.
The Louisiana judge who is heard on video repeatedly using a racial slur will request an indefinite leave of absence Thursday, according to her attorney.
The move from Lafayette City Court Judge Michelle Odinet on Thursday comes days after a video surfaced that included sound of the judge apparently repeated the N-word, and hours after Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards (D) said he believed that she should resign.
"Judge Odinet is humiliated, embarrassed, and sorry for what she has done and the trouble that she has caused to her community. She certainly understands the Governor's view of her inappropriate statements and the similar views of many, many others," Odinet's lawyer, Dane Ciolino, said in a statement to Law&Crime.
"As a result, before the close of business today, she will file a petition with the Louisiana Supreme Court requesting an indefinite leave from the bench without pay," the statement said. "In the weeks to come, she will consider what's best for her and her community in the long term."
The video, first reported Monday by local news nonprofit The Current, appears to be cellphone video of security footage showing an alleged foiled burglary at Odinet's house. Several purported family members are narrating the events.
As Law&Crime previously reported, two of the people whose voices are audible on the recording — including a woman identified as "mom" — used the N-word while describing the scene.
The video doesn't reveal who was speaking, Ciolino confirmed to the New York Times that Odinet did use a racist slur in the video.
Odinet has said that her family had been "the victim of and armed burglary" at her home and that she had been "given a sedative at the time of the video."
"I have zero recollection of the video and the disturbing language used during it," Odinet said in a statement to The Current. "Anyone who knows me and my husband, knows this is contrary to the way we live our lives. I am deeply sorry and ask for your forgiveness and understanding as my family and I deal with the emotional aftermath of this armed burglary."
The suspect in the burglary, Robert Handy, is a 59-year-old Black man, according to The Current.
The police report did not mention Handy having a weapon, The Current story said.
At least two motions have been filed on behalf of Black defendants in Odinet's court requesting that she recuse herself from their cases, The Current added.
"Judge Odinet has unequivocally, by her own words, shown that she is prejudiced and bias against African Americans," attorney Barry Sallinger wrote in a motion on behalf of De'edrick Lawrence, whom Odinet sentenced to two years of probation after he pleaded guilty to an intoxicated driving charge. "Her free and flippant use a vile, derogatory term to describe an African American man can result in no other conclusion. While a judgment of conviction has already been rendered pursuant to this plea, this case presents a particular circumstance where a biased and prejudiced judge will hold his future in her hands for the next two years."
In remarks Thursday, Edwards said defendants seeking Odinet's recusal are right to do so.
"I'm not sure she has a valid basis for denying that recusal, so there is no efficient administration of justice if she stays on the bench," Edwards said. "It would be my hope that his period of reflection that she's going through would lead her to the same conclusion. I believe she should resign. I hope she will conclude that for herself."
Odinet, a Republican, won the elected judgeship in November of 2020, winning 57-percent of the vote over her opponent, who ran with no party affiliation.
The Louisiana Supreme Court has appointed retired Judge Ronald D. Cox to the bench, local CBS affiliate KLFY reported Thursday.
Multiple local officials have called for Odinet's resignation, and State Senator Gerald Boudreaux, a Democrat who represents Lafayette, has requested an investigation.

Factual error: The Tiger tanks portrayed in the movie are actually Soviet T-34s. You could tell by looking at their wheels. Real Tigers had interleaved wheels. These Tigers had the T-34 suspension. Obviously, Tigers are so rare (only one operational Tiger left) that another tank had to be substituted. But an excellent job was done to make the T-34s look like Tigers.

Trivia: The movie was shot in chronological order, which is unusual for a film. Spielberg chose to shoot it that way so that the actors would feel like they were going through the experience in the same order as the characters they play, and they lose friends on the way. This helped create the resentment towards Ryan, who doesn't share the journey with them.

Question: After Capt Miller gets briefed on his new mission to rescue Pvt Ryan and enlists Upham for the mission, there is a long shot of the beach. What are those Zeppelin-like things that are floating around, tied to the ground? What are they good for? (00:39:50)
Answer: These were barrage balloons, commonly used during the war. They are used to stop low level bombing and low level fly bys by enemy fighter planes. The cables attached to the balloons are designed to cut through the wings of the aircraft and to bring them down, so any pilot would have to fly above them, and the balloons would also restrict the view from above.

In the scene where the medic gets shot, watch the shot where Upham brings the bags up to the injured medic. The next shot there is some fog which then reveals the injured medic. In this shot, watch carefully as the cast rips away the medic's shirt. If you look near the neck, you can see the fake stomach vest he is wearing for a split second - when the actor realizes he ripped too far up, he quickly covers it back up.

Eukaryotic evolution: early origin of canonical introns.
Simpson AG1, MacQuarrie EK, Roger AJ.
Spliceosomal introns, one of the hallmarks of eukaryotic genomes, were thought to have originated late in evolution and were assumed not to exist in eukaryotes that diverged early -- until the discovery of a single intron with an aberrant splice boundary in the primitive 'protozoan' Giardia. Here we describe introns from a close relative of Giardia, Carpediemonas membranifera, that have boundary sequences of the normal eukaryotic type, indicating that canonical introns are likely to have arisen very early in eukaryotic evolution.

A versatile tall, Brent Staker has been one of the club's best pick ups over the last couple of years. He has shown that he could be anything from a valuable key position tall to a Mitchell White-style damaging forward flanker. Staker is a little inconsistent on the field, some weeks playing like a veteran and others not so good, he is still very young and has much improvement to do.
Staker's consistency has seen him in and out of the team constantly over the years he has been at the club, including being out of the side for the 2006 Grand Final after playing nearly every other game for the season. For the most part it seems like he hasn't quite found his role in the team, but from time to time turns in performances that indicate there's still something there that could be quite special, if he can just gain that elusive ability to do it every week. Of course, with over 100 games under his belt, it's certainly getting to be time for that to happen.

Leftovers make a mighty fine meal.
In some ancient time, you were a manly man. You were someone special, but you did something naughty. Then you died, were cast into hell and got a little too well cooked. Happily for you, some wizard came in and yanked you out of the underworld, thawed you out, and micro-waved you back to life. Now you stand among the living, a little worse for wear, without a memory, and looking slightly gray and tasteless. You also have to slay a cult of deranged, uh, cultists, and all of their pets. Why? To save a little girl and, ostensibly, a small island. Thems the breaks, huh?

The entire game is played from an isometric perspective. In the side screen interface you have an inventory, a map, a scroll-book that records your spells, an outfitting screen with a 3D Locke all ready to get dressed up with heavy armor and a shinny battleaxe, and a bar at the bottom for quick items and spells.

Tickets are now being issued from red-light cameras at three busy Jacksonville intersections, adding to the list of places drivers can be forced to pay fines in these automated Jacksonville Traffic Cases. The cameras have been up for some time, but tickets cannot be issued immediately when the camera are installed, according to a report on News4Jax. Actual tickets can only be issued after the camera has been installed and active for one month. The tickets began on violations at the end of January and carry a $158 fine, according to the news report. Drivers have been receiving warning notices in the mail if they have been caught running the lights at these three intersections, but the fines in these Jacksonville Traffic Cases are what really matter.
Jacksonville Traffic Cases can be expensive, and the real cost comes down the road, when the points assessed to a driver's license start to add up. Red light camera tickets are a little different, and that's why some have criticized the cameras as simply a money grab for the counties that install them. Unlike any other moving violation in a Jacksonville Traffic Case, red light camera tickets do not have points that count against a person's driver license – IF the $158 fine is paid within 30 days. But, in order for a driver to protest a red light camera ticket in a Jacksonville Traffic Case, the driver must let that 30-day window expire for the ticket to become a traditional traffic ticket. By that point, though, the fine has jumped by more than $100 and the driver faces three points on his or her license.
Fighting a Jacksonville Traffic Case in court can often lead to points and fines being reduced. But, if drivers are not facing points on a red-light camera tickets, many may not think it's worth it to fight the ticket and bring points into play.

Q: Virtual machine in two subnets I'm coming from networking where a router/switch has a separate interface for management.
Therefore I want to understand how this is implemented for servers/virtualized servers.

I have one subnet for management (remote access to the VM via SSH) and another subnet for connecting the server to the service network.
Subnet 0 for management
Subnet 1 for webserver, ftp-server, syslog-server, radius ...
Is such a separation practical in server environment or is only a single subnet used to connect a server/virtualized server both for management and service access?
In my current setup, I have two bridges configured on the host and on the guest I have two eth-if (eth0 to br0 and eth1 to br1) but this seems to not be sufficient because the guest needs to know which interface has to be used depending on the application.
Maybe I'm totally wrong here and I'm making it too complicated. Any ideas or help would be great.

A: If I'm interpreting your question wrong, just let me know and I will edit to suit

What you're suggesting is definitely possible and is in fact easier with virtualised networking than traditional physical stuff (think VLANs in place of separate switches). In your example, you have br0 and br1. I'm going to assume that br0 is your service network and br1 is your management network. In that case, what you have sounds about right.
On your guest, you need two NICs, one connected to br0 (eth0 in your example) and configure applications on your guest (FTPD, syslogd, apache, whatever) to use eth0 (or to bind to eth0's address more accurately). Your guest's other NIC, eth1 should be configured with a static IP of its own, and configure applications like SSH to listen on eth1's address. You have now got the same concept as most network appliances.
Check that on your host you have a physical interface connected to your services network (let's call it net0 for clarity), and add it to the br0 bridge. Connect your host's other physical NIC (let's call it net1) to your management network (if you're using managed switches, that's just a matter of adding the ports to the right VLANs). Add net1 to br1 on the host, and you're good to go.

Coming from networking, I see what you mean, but in server-world it is a bit more manual to achieve the same effect.

Q: Docker multi-stage building fork instead of chain I would like to use multi-stage building for a dev and prod images. I am currently in a node environment.
I want the dev images to contain all the dependencies (dev and prod) and no source code (I intend to mount the source code) whereas the production image would contain only the production dependencies and the source code will be copied inside it.
Here is my Dockerfile:
FROM node:10.12.0 AS base

WORKDIR /home/app

COPY package*.json ./

FROM base AS development

RUN npm install

CMD ["npm", "run", "debug"]

FROM base AS production

RUN npm install --production

COPY . .

CMD [ "npm", "start" ]

The issue I am facing is that when I build the production image, the process go through the whole Dockerfile. I would like to make some kind of fork:
node -> base -> dev or node -> base -> prod
instead of
node -> base -> dev or node -> base -> dev -> prod
Is that possible ?
If not, is my issue a real issue or am I trying to achieve a useless goal because the production image overwrite the specificities of the dev image and so I should not care about going through the whole process ?

A:
If not, is my issue a real issue or am I trying to achieve a useless goal because the production image overwrite the specificities of the dev image and so I should not care about going through the whole process ?

Multi-stage images create multiple images, and then tag the one you request. In this case, nothing in the prod image depends on the dev image so they are created independently of each other. Nothing is overwritten in dev by prod, and nothing changed in dev is in the prod image.
The only impact is slower builds since you run the npm install twice, but only if the package*.json has changed since the last build. If you want to further speed up the build, consider switching to BuildKit which creates a dependency graph of your Dockerfile and runs only the needed stages to create your target stage. Enabling that is done with an environment variable on 18.09 or newer versions of docker:
export DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1
docker build --target=production image_name:prod .

If you want to make that the new default, there's a feature flag that can be set in /etc/docker/daemon.json

One attendee enjoys special reunion with Golden Bear November 17, 2011 By Ron Driscoll, USGA
Dr. Anthony Rejent (left) enjoyed a reunion with Jack Nicklaus at the USGA Member Education Series event at PGA National Resort & Spa in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. (John Mummert/USGA)
Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. – Not many people know that before we were introduced to golf phenoms such as Tiger Woods and Michelle Wie, there was a youngster from Columbus, Ohio, who had the sports world buzzing.
Dr. Anthony Rejent knows. He recalls walking onto the first tee in the early 1950s for a state high school championship to find that he had been paired with Jack Nicklaus, with an accompanying gallery far larger than any he had ever encountered.
"By this time, Jack had already burst onto the national scene," said Rejent, who grew up in Toledo. "I remember that I birdied the first hole and he parred it, but he ended up beating me by about a dozen shots."

Rejent, who began caddieing at famed Inverness Club at age 10, went on to earn a basketball scholarship to St. Louis University (later switching to golf), and after medical school at Creighton University, he became a renowned pediatric pulmonary physician in the St. Louis area, working with children with cystic fibrosis for four decades.
When Rejent found out that Nicklaus would be the featured speaker at the fourth USGA Member Education Series event at PGA National Resort & Spa, he signed on and brought a copy of a nearly 60-year-old newspaper story and photo from a state junior tournament that featured the pair. Jack had won, of course, and before participating in a question-and-answer session on Nov. 14 at the exclusive USGA Member event, he renewed acquaintances with Rejent and signed the press clipping for him.
"When we played together, we talked about golf, we talked about basketball," said Rejent, 72, of their long ago competitive round. "He was never aloof. He was a kid like anyone else, just one with enormous talent. He could hit a 3-iron like you or I would hit an 8-iron, so high and land it so softly."
Rejent was among 120 USGA Members and guests who attended the three-day USGA event, which was highlighted by the 90-minute, Q-and-A featuring Nicklaus and Rich Lerner of the Golf Channel. The schedule also included a panel discussion on the state of the game with industry leaders from the USGA, The PGA of America and the LPGA; a behind-the-scenes look at the staging of the U.S. Open with USGA vice president Thomas J. O'Toole, Jr.; and two rounds of golf at PGA National, which hosts the PGA Tour's Honda Classic each March.
Rejent wasn't the only Member with a Nicklaus vignette. Phil Poletti of Kenosha, Wis., was bitten by the golf bug after he caddied for his father in a pro-am before the Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio, Nicklaus' home course.
"It was June 1979, right after I graduated from college," said Poletti. "I was taking lessons and trying to play every day. The assistant pro at Muirfield Village sent me out on the 10th hole because there was a couples' tournament on the first nine. I was playing alone, and when I got to the 14th hole, there was Jack on the tee with [longtime teacher] Jack Grout, and Angelo Argea, his caddie, was out on the fairway. It was a couple of weeks before the U.S. Open, and Jack was trying to hit the green with his driver on the short par-4 hole.
"Jack invited me to play through … I could barely talk – I did my best Jackie Gleason "humana, humana" impression, and finally got out that I had just started playing the game. Well, I went up to the tee and hit a 4-wood, and Jack took about five minutes to give me a few pointers. After that, I asked if he would mind if I stayed; I watched him hit balls for about a half-hour. I remember he hit one into the creek in front of the green and yelled to Angelo to go in and get it."
Poletti's late father, Tom, was a charter member at Muirfield Village who worked on the scoring committee for the Memorial. The 55-year-old Poletti is an associate director of the Wisconsin State Golf Association, and he acts as a Rules official for seven or eight state events and USGA qualifiers each summer.
"When I chatted with Jack, he said that he remembered my dad," said Poletti. "For someone who is as crazy about the game as I am, this has been a great event. I'm so thankful it wasn't a 400- or 500-person type of deal. I was able to speak with [PGA of America CEO] Joe Steranka about volunteering at the Ryder Cup next year [at Medinah C.C.], and I bounced some ideas off Tom O'Toole from the USGA. My friends who I told about it could appreciate what we were exposed to here and were really jealous."
David and Kevin Risch were ruminating on a 70th birthday gift for their father, Gerry, when David received an e-mail about the Member Education Series event. The subscription to a wine club they were discussing quickly went by the boards.
"When we saw what the package included, we said why not do this," said David, 36, of Chicago, who also attended with his brother and their mother, Judy. "We let him know on Oct. 29, two days before his birthday. Even without the events, we got to play two topnotch courses, and it was great to interact with the other Members."
Dennis Muron of Greenville, S.C., has a son and daughter he is introducing to the game, and he appreciated the morning panel discussion on the game's future. "I was really pleasantly surprised by how thorough it was, and how deeply involved it was. And Jack wasn't in a hurry last night; he listened to everyone's questions, and he was so free-flowing that I was amazed."
Rejent wasn't surprised at all. "Jack has always been a friendly, engaging person," he said, then pointed to Nicklaus standing nearby. "It was really exciting for me to be able to say hello to him. That's the world's greatest golfer right there."

This is a phrase that will come into the public eye very soon, and this is honestly something I have only been made aware of recently. Col Fondo wines are something that are hotting up to be the next big thing in the sparkling wine world! Anyone with a relative knowledge of languages will know that Col Fondo literally means "with the bottom". The word Col is actually what is called in grammar an articulated preposition. It is a combination of the preposition Con, which means within in Italian, and the definite (masculine) article il, meaning the. Fondo, from the Latin fundus, means (literally) bottom. So that's the literal meaning. The actual meaning translates to the same thing, but it means that the sediment or lees are present in the wine.
Col Fondo is basically a sparkling wine that has been aged on its lees (essentially dead yeast cells), in most cases these days, especially with Prosecco, the lees are filtered out using certain fining methods and you are presented with a lovely clear semi-sparkling wine – but with the Col Fondo method these are the cloudy funky types – and our assortment of these is growing month on month as they become more popular with the public.
What's the difference in flavour between Prosecco and Col fondo?
Col Fondo wines are more natural and pure, much less sweet than your average Prosecco, and unlike Champagne, there is zero disgorgement (removal of the frozen sediment/yeasts) making the wine, as mentioned earlier, cloudy and a bit more funky looking. The Col Fondo wines can sometimes be sour in taste and also on the nose, but don't get put off by that, sour is good, it breaks down the food and leaves a lovely refreshed flavour on your palate. The Col Fondo wines are produced as a Frizzante – meaning they are a little less intense when it comes to fizz than the likes of Champagne or Prosecco – so, all in all, they are a toned down version of the two, less intense, less sweet, and overall much more enjoyable – this is the reason we have very little Champagne here at Pull The Cork. I also think it's great for everyone to try something new – the world is constantly evolving, get involved with us and evolve with it.
You say they are great with food, so tell us some that we should be drinking, and what they match with.
Mongarda Col Fondo (2017) is one of my recent favourites, it is an extremely food-friendly wine, as it has wonderful aromatics and a soaring acidity which really cuts down those big bold flavours! It's the perfect accompaniment to fresh oysters the saltiness pairs perfectly with the citrus from the Col Fondo, and Bone Marrow is also a winner – the bold acidity in this wine really helps cut down the fattiness of the marrow. The Mongarda grapes are hand harvested from the oldest sites at the end of September. Soft pressing with skin contact for a few days. Static decanting for 24 hours. Fermentation in SST with pied de cuvèe. Maturation in cement tanks with batonage. Re-fermentation in the bottle with original must during spring.
Something a little different here – and don't be put off – yes it is a sparkling red Col Fondo – Zanotto Rosso Col Fondo (2016) this is the ultimate party wine – it has very inviting aroma: violets, small red fruit, strawberries and pepper. The tannins and acidity play up lively in this unusual and unexpected wine, both harmonious and fragrant. Zanotto Rosso Col Fondo was created from a blend of hill-grown red grapes with notable acidity, and another decidedly full-bodied grape variety. The grapes are fermented together and left to macerate in stainless steel tanks for 7-10 days. The second fermentation takes place in the bottle where the lees are left to deposit.
Last but not least the Costadilà Col Fondo 280 SLM (2017) this is an incredible wine with an a recently very sad story! Costadila is a small, traditional, organic, "closed-loop" farm in the hills north of Venice. In accordance with the local tradition, their wines are only fermented in the bottle, using wild-yeasts and never adding sulphites (perfect for those with allergies). A few months ago the winemaker; Ernesto Cattel very suddenly passed away – he was the owner, winemaker and face behind Costadila, he really was the Col Fondo pioneer and organic and biodynamic advocate. The cause was an unspecified long-term illness. He was only 54 years old! His famous motto was "Let's start at the bottom and rise up from the cloudy to see our way clear," very much like his wines I guess! The Costadilà Col Fondo 280 SLM is an opaque yellow-orange from the long maceration on the skins and the presence of the yeasts. There is an Intense scent of ripe yellow fruits and white flowers with a mineral background. This wine is smooth, fresh and crunchy, with an elegant minerality and a pleasant bitterish length. This is perfect with seafood, and light salads. His wines are original and curious yet simply great. This is, unfortunately, the last batch in the country, until the family have found a new fully dedicated winemaker.

BRISBANE — Brisbane City Council bus drivers stopped work for four hours on June 3 in protest against council management failure to properly consult with the union leadership concerning the implementation of periodic medical assessment.
The medical assessments will come into force on July 1, after the state government amended the Urban Transport Act. The act effects all public transport organisations. The BCC failed to properly consult the union and the drivers concerning its application.
The drivers' only official notification by the council was a written notice placed in all of the drivers' lockers. This notice informed the drivers of when the medical assessment would begin and how they would apply.
Council intentions were that the medical assessments would be carried out in the workplace by the council's medical team with checks being made on blood pressure, eyesight, visual and colour perception. The notice circulated by the BCC to the drivers made no reference to whether drivers would have the right to have their medicals conducted by their own doctor.
More importantly, the notice failed to advise the drivers of their rights and what their future employment prospects would be in the event of failing the medical assessment.
A mass meeting of the drivers on the day of the stoppage carried a resolution endorsing the decision of the Public Transport Union executive in calling the stoppage and the proposal to have further discussion with management.
When drivers returned to their depots, a further council notice was issued. This attempted to undermine the union leadership and cause division among the membership by inferring that it was the union leadership that had failed to consult and not the council management.
The notice advised that drivers will be able to make their own arrangements to have their medical conducted by their own doctor. Secondly, failure of the medical would lead to rehabilitation as the first priority and redeployment as the second — in accordance with terms of the enterprise bargaining agreement. Only in the extreme cases of "permanently unfit" with no redeployment prospects would separation be contemplated.
The BCC bus drivers are not opposed to periodic medical assessment and in fact recognise that assessments are a necessity in the interests of passenger safety and their own well-being.
However, such a process requires proper consultation and assurances concerning the effects on the driver's future employment. If BCC management had informed the union and the drivers of the arrangements and assurances contained in the second notice, then the stoppage would probably not have occurred.
Enterprise bargaining is supposed to be based on proper consultation. If this is an example of the BCC management's concept of consultation then BCC bus drivers will have to remain alert.

Az Asztrahányi Kánság vagy Haszitarháni Kánság nomád tatár államalakulat volt Kelet-Európában, amely az Arany Horda részfejedelemségeként jött létre 1466-ban, majd 1502-től teljesen önállónak számított. Területe a Kaszpi-tenger északnyugati mellékén, a Volga folyó torkolat vidéke és a Tyerek folyó között terült el. Központja a mai Asztrahán volt. Uralkodói Dzsingisz kán unokájától, Tuka Temürtől származtatták magukat (megjegyzendő, hogy Temür apja Dzsocsi törvényes származását mindig is kétségbe vonták).

A kánság alapítója és első kánja Kücsük Mohamed. A kánság még több mint három és fél évtizedig elismerte legfőbb urának az Arany Horda nagykánját. A kánságot 1556-ban leigázta Rettegett Iván orosz cár.

Területe
A kánság a mai Asztraháni terület nagy részét foglalta magába, valamint az Alsó-Volga völgyét és a Volga-deltát és a folyó jobb partján elterülő sztyeppe egy részét a mai Kalmükföldön. Délkeleten a Kaszpi-tenger határolta, keleten a Nogaji Hordával volt határos, nyugaton a Krími Tatár Kánság részét képező Nogaji Tatár Kánság határolta. Déli határát a Tyerek folyó jelentette.

A térség már a kánság létrejöttét megelőzően fontos szerepet töltött be. Földje mindig is termékeny volt, az állattartásra pedig ideális legelők feküdtek erre. Észak-déli, valamint kelet-nyugati kereskedelmi útvonalak metszéspontján helyezkedett el, mely kereskedelem Perzsia és a Volga vidéke közt zajlott.

Előtörténet
A türk nyelvű népek már a 6. században megjelentek a térségben. Első ízben a volgai bolgárok, majd a kazárok, sőt valószínűleg magyarok is. A mongol hódítás a 13. század első felében, még Dzsingisz kán idejében érte el a területet. A Mongol Világbirodalom felosztását követően az Arany Horda uralta a térséget egészen a 15. század közepéig. Az 1430-as évektől sorra jöttek létre az új kánságok az Arany Horda helyén, így Kazanyi (1438), a Krími (1441), az Asztrahányi (1466) és a Szibériai Kánság (1468).

Oroszország 1480-ban rázta le a tatár függőséget. Bár az Arany Horda utódállamai továbbra is zaklatták a Moszkvai Nagyfejedelemséget, azonban elfoglalni már nem tudták.

A kánság története
A kánság történelméről kevés és pontatlan írásos forrás maradt fenn. A regnáló kánok uralkodásának időpontjai is sok esetben homályosak és tisztázatlanok. A történelmi adatok java része kimerül az egyes háborúkról, utazásokról és diplomáciai megbízásokról szóló feljegyzésekben. Ráadásul a kánság fővárosa Asztrahán, amit a tatárok eredetileg Haszitárhán-nak neveztek, mintegy 12 km-re feküdt arrébb a mai várostól (az eredeti várost ugyanis az oroszok lerombolták).

A kánság első évtizedei is teljesen bizonytalanok. Az Arany Horda még hivatalosan 1502-ig fennállott, ezért nem ismeretes, hogy az Asztrahányi Kánság mikor vált de facto függetlenné, milyen volt az első kánok befolyása, kikkel történt a hatalommegosztás, stb. Nagyon valószínű azonban, hogy a kánság számított a térség legfőbb rabszolgapiacának a korszakban.

A kánságról az első külföldi említés Ambrogio Contarini velencei diplomatától származik 1476-ból. A kánság szoros kapcsolatban volt a nogajokkal, a krími tatárokkal és a kaukázusi cserkeszekkel és a kabardokkal. Az oroszokkal 1532 körül kerültek diplomáciai kapcsolatba.

Rettegett Iván uralkodása alatt már egyre határozottabb expanziós politika folyt keleti és déli irányba a tatár fejedelemségek rovására. 1552-ben a cár le is igázta Kazanyt. Az orosz sikerek miatt Jamgurcsi asztrahányi kán megpróbált Moszkva felé orientálódni. Végül meggondolta magát és szakított ezzel a politikával. Ehelyett a Krími Kánsággal illetve a Nogaji Hordával törekedett szorosabb szövetségre, előbbiek esetében az Oszmán Birodalommal is próbált érintkezésbe lépni, mivel a krími kán a török szultán hűbérese volt.

Rettegett Iván ekkor 30 ezer fős sereggel hadjáratot intézett Asztrahány ellen és Jamgurcsi helyébe Dervis Alit ültette. Ali ellenben a krímiekkel (és a törökökkel) próbált szövetkezni (vagy csak ilyen gyanúba keverték ellenfelei), mire a cári csapatok visszatértek és elkergették a trónról. A várost lerombolták, a kánság megsemmisült és a rabszolga-kereskedelmet is felszámolták.

Asztrahán elfoglalása már sérteni kezdte az Oszmán Birodalom érdekeit, főleg mert Oroszország egyre közelebb került a Fekete-tengerhez. II. Szelim oszmán szultán épp ezért 1569-ben sereget küldött a régi kánság területére, hogy kiűzze az oroszokat és egy csatornát építsen ki, amely a Don folyót kötötte volna össze a Volgával, így az Oszmán Birodalom kiterjeszthette volna uralmát a Kaszpi-tengerig. Az orosz–török háború viszont katasztrofális vereséggel végződött Szelim számára.

A kánság lakossága
Az orosz hódítás előtt a kánságot volgai tatárok és nogajok lakták. Bár mindkét csoport kipcsák-török etnikumú, de eltérő nyelvet beszél. A nogajok nyelvében erős az egyes kaukázusi nyelvek hatása.

Gazdasága
A kánság nagy hasznot húzott a rabszolgakereskedelemből, illetve egyéb kereskedelmi ágazatokból. Az itteni kereskedők tranzitforgalmat bonyolítottak le Moszkva, Kazany, a Krím, Közép-Ázsia, a Kaukázus és Perzsia (a mai Irán) között. Fennállása elején nagyon fontos húzóágazat volt a kereskedelem, mivel az előnyös elhelyezkedésből adódóan az államnak nem is volt komolyabb versenytársa a térségben, így helyreállottak régi kereskedelmi útvonalakat Hvárezm, Buhara és Kazany irányába is.

Társadalom és vallás
A kánság félig nomád, félig feudális berendezkedésű volt. Az ország élén a kán állt, alatta tartományurak (a szultánok) voltak. A kisebb régiókat a bégek (bej) és murzák vezették, akik a katonai egységeket is irányították. A társadalom többi részét egyszerű közemberek alkották.

A kánság államvallása a szunnita iszlám volt. Az orosz hódítás után és az orosz telepesek érkezésével az ortodox kereszténység lépett elő domináns vallásként, az iszlám a kisebbségek vallása lett. A kalmükök révén később megjelent a buddhizmus is.

The primary objective of the Program in Creative Writing is to give students who have the talent and the ambition for a writing career the opportunity to develop that talent significantly and to make it the centre of a program of university study. Two major assumptions inform this program: first, that the capabilities of talent can be increased through training: and second, that the necessary curriculum for aspiring writers consists of the study of the language and the writing idioms of past and contemporary writers.
The program therefore aims in its earlier years to acquaint students with the various ways of writing that the writers of our time have made possible. Students begin to write in an expanding environment of literary and linguistic knowledge. In the later years the program aims to expose students to the history of formal experimentation and growth in particular genres, and to encourage specialization in two genres. The Program emphasizes literary writing rather than formula writing.
A third objective of the program is to take into account the unpredictability and variety of the interests of writing students. This program permits students to follow idiosyncratic combinations of courses, provided that they can demonstrate to the program coordinator the relevance of these courses to their writing ambitions and receive from the program coordinator necessary permission to enrol in such courses to count towards their degree.

Since the Endangered Species Act was first passed 1973, only 3 percent of species protected by the law have recovered to the point where they are no longer threatened or endangered.
The ESA can and should be strengthened so that it not only continues to protect species, but also promotes their full recovery.
The Western Governors Association has developed bipartisan policy recommendations for legislation to improve recovery plans and enhance state and federal partnerships.
Since 1973, the federal government has listed 1,661 domestic species of plants and animals as endangered or threatened. Only 54, about 3 percent, have actually recovered. It has become evident that the Endangered Species Act helps species avoid extinction, but has had little success in helping them fully recover. As more species are added and very few species are removed from the lists, the economic burdens of the ESA continue to grow. With 363 additional species nationwide to be considered for listing by 2023, now is a good time to make the ESA better for both the environment and the economy.
The ESA primarily empowers the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to list species of plants and animals as "endangered" or "threatened" depending on their risk of extinction. Listed species may not be killed, captured, or harmed in virtually any other way unless the federal government grants an exemption. For example, if a rancher finds an endangered bird's nest with eggs in a tree on his land, cutting down the tree without permission would violate the ESA.
Exemptions are rarely sought or granted because the process can take more than six months and the applicant must pay for any activities to mitigate the effect of the exemption.
The other main ways by which listed species are protected is the designation of "critical habitats." Federal entities and private entities that get federal funds or licenses may not take actions that harm critical habitats of the listed species. Any federal or private land can be declared a critical habitat, but the designation only practically matters if the land has a federal connection.
In most cases, the secretary of the interior decides what species make the endangered and threatened lists. Private parties or state entities can petition the secretary to decide on a particular species. The secretary must develop a recovery plan for each listed species to get off the list, but the plans are nonbinding. Consequently, the recovery plans are often vague, offering little guidance to anyone whose land or activities are restricted.
The law has been effective at preserving species, but not at achieving recovery. Conservation groups and experts across the political spectrum have offered ways to improve the ESA.
The research group Strata has called for expanding the role of state governments in species recovery. State agencies generally have more local expertise and additional resources that can aid in recovery, but they are often allowed only a nominal role in the federal decision-making process. Other organizations such as the Center for Biological Diversity have offered recommendations for improving species recovery. They suggest requiring specific recovery goals as a precondition to downgrading a species' threat level. For example, a species might need to reach a population of 10,000 before downgrading its status. Another recommendation was for specific findings on whether critical-habitat designation plans would merely stabilize the species in question or lead to full recovery.
The Western Governors Association also has recommended bipartisan principles for ESA improvement. The governors called for greater state involvement in administering and implementing the ESA, as well as clear recovery goals for listed species.
Though governors in the West have been particularly active in ESA improvement efforts, the challenges surrounding implementation will increasingly affect states in the East, South, and Midwest. According to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's seven year workplan, 363 additional species will be considered for listing by 2023.
Collectively, states spend $5.6 billion on conservation annually and can call upon 11,000 wildlife biologists, 10,000 wildlife law enforcement officers, and other specialized employees. This funding is double the $2.8 billion sought in the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's fiscal year 2019 budget request. States are well situated to play a larger role in sound management of endangered species across the country.

We were 18 motivated high school graduates who had set themselves an ambitious target. We wanted to break the existing world record for the largest Kaiserschmarren and we managed it! We got together with dedicated professors from the Kaiserhof Provincial Hotel School in Merano and started to plan this challenging event, including calculating the recipe exactly.
Then, in April 2017, we were ready to bake 250 kg raw mixture over glowing embers in a custom-made record frying pan. There were 12 of us standing around the roasting hot pan to take on the challenge of preparing the Kaiserschmarren under the critical gaze of the visitors.
The whole effort paid off in the end as we beat the existing record by 80 kg.

Rep. Devin Nunes: 'Breaking the News' Exposes Media 'Criminality' and 'Defamation'
The Devin Nunes Podcast/Rumble/screenshot
Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) praised Breitbart News Editor in Chief Alex Marlow's Breaking the News: Exposing the Establishment Media's Hidden Deals and Secret Corruption for exposing news media "criminality" and "defamation."
In the latest edition of his eponymous podcast published Monday, Nunes interviewed Marlow about the findings of Breaking the News. He said he would urge his Republican colleagues to read the book.
"I highly recommend this to all my colleagues," Nunes said. "In fact, if I'm going talk to a lot of them about your book because you really put everything that all of us have experienced over the last five years, you put it into one definitive piece that really highlights the criminality — and I say that it really is criminal and against the law — what these media outlets have been doing. It's every day, massive levels of defamation, and you really call them out."
Republicans undermine legitimate news media outlets by engaging with and speaking to corrupt leftist operations, Nunes determined. Good faith politicians doing interviews with left-wing news media take attention away from those he said undertake "real reporting."
Nunes remarked:
Not only do we not need [leftist news media], any time you actually do interviews with that 95 percent [of news media that are left-wing], you're taking away viewers from watching [real reporting], whether it's my podcast, or your radio show that you have in the morning, or a lot of the great videos that Breitbart does, or a whole host of other people.
It's just completely asinine that any Republicans talk to these news media outlets. It's kind of funny. I'll kind of corner them, and they kind of smirk or kind of chuckle about it, but it's not a joke. You're really aiding the enemy.
Under no circumstance should you ever be talking to the Russia pee tape hoaxers. No Republican — anybody who was, who was caught up in that — should never talk to one of those damn reporters ever.
Many news media outlets present left-wing political infomercials and propaganda as news, Marlow observed. He speculated whether such operations should be considered political donations.
"I think [these] are clear soft money contributions that these news outlets are making," he stated. "It's very clear. The people funding these outlets are funding the Democrat candidates, and it's just an amazing thing that they figured out a way to have unlimited earned media for their chosen candidates."
Marlow added, "That's what we're talking about with oligopolies. These news outlets are owned by these major conglomerates. Their boards are filled with these big corporate globalists, and it's just the sort of thing that I don't think is sustainable in this country."
Nunes lauded Breaking the News as a "fabulous book."
"I highly recommend it," Nunes said of Breaking the News. "[Marlow] has been with Breitbart [News] since the beginning, was a friend of Andrew Breitbart's, and he gets into some of that history in the book. But what's really great about this book is he goes through and completely destroys — and I think with a funny way — the fake news over the last several years."

How many oreos high can you stack?
Ashlyn stacked the maximum with 27 - Great job! It is not as easy as you think. Our minimum was 15. We had a range of 12, a mean of 21, and a mode of 25 with 5 students.
We compared our results with Mrs. Allen's class. A fifth grade class in Missouri.
Their maximum was higher with 29.
Their minimum was lower with 15.
Their mean was the same with 21.
Their mode was also at 21 with 4 students.

3 Week Itinerary & Estimated Expense in Europe
#WalkwithChaMikeinEurope
1 Continent. 2 Newlyweds. 4 Countries. 13 Cities. 21 Days. 9,000 ++ photos. And a Lifetime of Memories. This was our honeymoon.
Hello Kitty Eva Air from Paris to Taipei
Au revoir Paris!
I hate goodbyes most especially if it's saying it to Paris 😞 but we were so lucky that our parting with Paris became bearable because of our flight back home! A Hello Kitty Eva Air plane from Paris to Taipei was what we needed to forget our #sepanx.
Post Nuptial Pictorial in Paris France
#WalkwithChaMikeinParis
One of the things that I dreamt about before going to Paris was a romantic pictorial at the Eiffel Tower. Nothing beats a postnuptial pictorial in Paris, yes? The only problem is looking for an affordable photographer. That's a major problem especially if you have a tight budget. And because it's Paris nothing comes cheap so for awhile I thought that dream would just remain to be a dream... Until Camille and Julien came to the rescue.
Hotel Alize Grenelle Paris France
When we looked for a place to stay in Paris our main priorities were comfort and location because this was the longest city we will be staying in. Thus the reason why we booked a hotel and not an Airbnb. I did search for a room in Airbnb but I wasn't able to see a listing that fancied me. I admit I was very careful in looking for a place as I didn't want to be a victim of booking a room that seemed nice on photos but terrible in person since Paris is quite famous for that reputation. So after carefully reviewing the hotels on booking.com we finally settled at Hotel Alize Grenelle.
La Table de Genevieve Paris France
The most memorable dinner we had in Europe was not at a high-end fine dining restaurant, it was also not along a romantic canal cruise nor on top of an overlooking restaurant but it was at quaint home-cooked restaurant called La Table de Genevieve.
French Cuisine: What We Ate in Paris France
French cuisine is one of the most respected and renowned cuisines in the world, after all Paris won't be named the Capital City of Food for nothing so even if French food is expensive in Paris, Mike and I saw ourselves eating at fine dining restaurants and enjoying extraordinary gastronomic experiences from day one until our final day.
Palace of Versailles Paris France
'From the seat of power to a museum of the history of France'
The Palace of Versailles remains to be one of the most important landmarks in Paris. Versailles was a former French royal residence from the reign of King Louis XIV to King Louis XVI from 1682 to 1789. The royal family was forced to return to the capital after the beginning of the French Revolution. From the 19th century until today, Versailles became and still is an important museum of France.
Climbing the Eiffel Tower Paris France
An activity any traveller in Paris shouldn't miss is to go up the Eiffel Tower for that sweeping panoramic view of the city. It is also a bragging right when you are able to conquer your fear of heights.
Eiffel Tower from Trocadero & Champ de Mars Paris France
The most iconic landmark in Paris. Eiffel Tower remains to be the most visited paid landmark in the world. Built by Engineer Gustave Eiffel, the wrought iron lattice tower was constructed from 1887-1889 for the 1889 World Fair. At first, Parisian didn't like it but eventually grew on loving it and now it is considered to be a global cultural icon of France.
Honeymoon in PARIS FRANCE for 5 Days
As what my #lifepeg said, "Paris is always a good idea." Indeed, Audrey Hepburn was right! For more than two decades I had been day dreaming of visiting this place. I've read and watched numerous novels and movies about Paris while growing up and since then I've been enchanted about this city and vowed I'd visit it before I die. Finally, I was blessed to make that wish come true. Thanks to my husband for making it possible (Mike is indeed a keeper!)
Paris was the last leg of our Europe Honeymoon, I definitely saved the best for last and allotted 5 full days in the city of lights and love with my mon amour.
Flix Bus from Amsterdam to Paris. Worst ride Ever!
#WalkwithChaMikeinAmsterdam #WalkwithChaMikeinParis
Amsterdam is located north of Paris, the two cities are near each other the reason why many travelers visit these two cities consecutively. There are many ways to travel from Amsterdam to Paris or vise versa - via plane, train, bus, car or bike but they say the most convenient way is to travel by train. How I wish we had chosen this option because maybe we would not have experienced unnecessary drama we encountered on our worst day in Europe - all because of Flix Bus.
Hotel Allure Amsterdam Netherlands
#WalkwithChaMikeinAmsterdam
It was that time of the year when it was difficult to book a cheap accommodation in Amsterdam. A really big challenge to look for a place in Amsterdam because 1, we started looking a little late (less than a month) and 2, it was peak season (spring) to visit Amsterdam. So even if we wanted to book an Airbnb for a cheaper option, the available listings were very few and very expensive. So we settled for a hotel we saw on booking.com. It wasn't cheap at all but it was the best option we had during that time.
Tulip Garden in Keukenhof during Spring
#WalkwithChaMikeinKeukenhof
Tulips are BEAUTIFUL! These pretty flowers grow during spring and can only be found in certain areas around the world. When you think of tulips you'll instantly think of Holland. Keukenhof in Lisse is one of the most well-known flower gardens in the world. It is a popular destination to witness over 7 millions tulip bulbs in a 32 hectare land.
Honeymoon in Amsterdam Netherlands for 3 days
Another city that I was so excited to visit was Amsterdam. Hearing the stories from other travelers made me very curious about this place. Amsterdam is the capital and most populous city in the Netherlands. It is famous for its magnificent canals, one-of-a-kind museums, colorful tulip fields, and bicycle friendly roads, but not only that, I think you will all agree with me that Amsterdam is more famous for two very unique attractions - its vibrant Red Light District and Cannabis Coffeeshops.
Hotel Du Midi Nice France
#WalkwithChaMikeinNice
We decided to book a hotel in Nice instead of an Airbnb because we weren't able to see an ideal Airbnb listing during the time we were looking (but checking the listing now, you'll find tons of options) plus we were already running out of time to search thoroughly. Nevertheless, our hotel in Nice didn't disappoint as we had a pleasant stay and the rate is very affordable. It was also a 'nice' break from the no frills Airbnb we stayed.
Honeymoon in Grasse France in half a day
#WalkwithChaMikeinGrasse
The French Riviera (Cote d'Azur) are towns that are located at the Mediterranean coastline at the Southern corner of France. Included here are Nice, State of Monaco, Cannes and Grasse. Nice was our main hub while we were at the French Riviera (Read: Things to do in Nice), we visited the State of Monaco on our first day (Read: Things to do in Monaco in a day) and on our second day we visited two neighboring towns: Cannes and Grasse.
Honeymoon in Cannes France in half a day
The French Riviera (Cote d'Azur) are towns that are located at the Mediterranean coastline at the Southern corner of France. Included here are Nice, State of Monaco, Cannes and Grasse. Nice was our main hub while we were at the French Riviera (Read: Things to do in Nice France), we visited the State of Monaco on our first day (Read: Things to do in Monaco in a day) and on our second day we visited two neighboring towns: Cannes and Grasse.
Honeymoon in Monaco in a day
#WalkwithChaMikeinMonaco
Never have I thought that I was able to visit this mecca of the rich, the sovereign state that is Monaco. Monaco is a city-state, country in France and is part of the French Riviera. It is the second smallest country in the world (Vatican is the smallest) but despite it's area it remained to be one of the key attractions at the Cote d'Azur. It's well- known for the glitz and glamour, wealthy socialites, car races and casinos. I even thought normal travelers aren't allowed here not until I did a researcher prior to our trip.
Honeymoon in Nice France
NICE is NICE! Nice France has always been on my bucket list. I was mesmerized by the mediterranean coastline of Cote d'Azur or French Riviera that I've seen on photos and videos so I swore that when I visit France, this would be on top of my long list of places to see.
How to see the Pope up close and Day tour in Vatican City
#WalkwithChaMikeinVatican.
A visit to Rome would not be complete without a visit to the Vatican and a visit to the Vatican wouldn't be complete without seeing the Pope. And there's no better way to encounter the pope than to see him up close. Just what we experienced during our visit to the Vatican. Being a traveler means embracing and respecting all religions, that's why even if I'm not a Catholic, I still considered Vatican as an attraction for us to see.
Colosseum Guided Tour in Rome Italy
ChaMike at the Colosseum Dungeon and Upper Level Tour.
My favorite movie of all time is Russell Crowe's Gladiator. I am a big fan that I even took up Communication in college so I could work in Hollywood to make Oscar Award winning pictures like that. Well, I didn't end up in Hollywood but I ended up as a TV producer and Mike's wife that made it possible for me to travel to my favorite movie locations like the Colosseum.
House Maximo Airbnb in Rome Italy
ChaMike at an Airbnb in Rome.
We encountered the best Airbnb apartment and host in Rome. For our last city in Italy, we decided to book at an Airbnb once again like our accommodations in Venice (Read: Da Vinci Canal and Garden View Airbnb in Venice) and Florence (Read: Fiesolana Rose Airbnb in Florence). Airbnb is cheaper as compared to hotels and you can look for a specific listing depending on your preference.
Honeymoon in Rome Italy for 2 Days
#WalkwithChaMikeinRome
I've been wanting to visit Rome ever since I watched the classic film Roman Holiday and my all-time fave movie, Gladiator. Visiting all these historical landmarks I saw from various movies and read on history books made me appreciate Rome more. Rome is the capital of Italy, a city that has a perfect mixture of ancient & cosmopolitan making it an excellent place for tourists to visit. We spent 2 days in Rome 'doing what the Romans do.'
Fiesolana Rose Airbnb in Florence Italy
ChaMike at an Airbnb in Florence.
Decided to book at an Airbnb in Florence for two nights to save money just like what we did in Venice (Read: Da Vinci Canal and Garden View Airbnb Venice Italy). Airbnb apartments are relatively cheaper as compared to most hotels in Florence. There are so many different listings to choose from depending on your preference.
Honeymoon in Florence Italy for 1 Day
#WalkwithChaMikeinFlorence
The city of the Renaissance, Florence is one of Europe's greatest art cities. From the art works displayed at the Uffizi Gallery and Galleria dell'Accademia to the exquisite architecture of Duomo and its neighboring houses of red brick roofs. Visiting this city would make you feel as if you've traveled back in time. Mike and I together with good friends, Neal and April, went on a 1 full day adventure in Florence - enjoying museums, climbing the Giotto Campanile, eating Italian cuisine and gelato, and shopping for genuine Italian leather plus Mike role playing as an assassin parkouring around the city.
TrenItalia from Venice to Florence to Pisa to Rome
Walk with ChaMike inside the train in Italy.
In Italy, the best means of transportation when going from one city to another is via train -it's fast, reliable and can give you a scenic view around the cities. The most popular train company that operates around Italy is Trenitalia that runs both regional and high-speed routes. This was where we booked all our intercity routes around Italy - Venice to Florence, Florence to Pisa and Pisa to Rome.
Da Vinci Canal and Garden View Airbnb in Venice Italy
ChaMike at an Airbnb in Venice.
Our Airbnb in Venice was as charming as its city. Opted to book at an Airbnb in our trip to the cities of Italy because accommodation prices in these areas are relatively higher especially if you book in a hotel. And because Airbnb offers local residences, we got to try how it was like to live like an Italiano.
Honeymoon in Venice Italy for 2 Days
#WalkwithChaMikeinVenice
Enchanting. This was the word that entered my mind when I first stepped on this beautiful quaint city. We instantly fell in love with Venice - the sight of the rustic buildings, the feel when you walk on cobblestone streets, the mouthwatering smell of pizza and pasta, the taste of an authentic Italian gelato and the sound of the paddling and singing gondolier along the romantic canals. The overall charm of the city made me feel I was in a dreamy movie. It was so magical!
OEBB Sleeper Train from Vienna Austria to Venice Italy
Walk with Cham inside the Sleeper Train from Vienna to Venice
I've tried riding a sleeper train once during a family's trip from Beijing to Xi'an (Read: Sleeper Train from Beijing to Xi'an China) and I enjoyed it so much that I wanted Mike to experience it with me. So when we were looking for a train from Vienna to Venice we opted to get sleeper train tickets for that 11-hour travel.
Motel One Wein - Hauptbahnhof Vienna Austria
ChaMike at Motel Wein.
Mike and I together with our friends April and Neal stayed at a newly opened hotel in Vienna, Motel One Wein - Hauptbahnhof.
Honeymoon in Vienna Austria for 2 Days
#WalkwithChaMikeinVienna
Austria was the first country we visited in Europe and Vienna was our point of entry. It was a nice place to start our honeymoon since it is the capital and the largest city in Austria. Vienna is known for being 'The City of Music' because most of the well known composers like Mozart lived here. It is also called 'The City of Dreams' because it is the home of the first psycho analyst, Sigmund Freud. Aside from that Vienna is known for its high quality of living - everywhere we went to we noticed that all the establishments are grandiose, streets are squeaky clean, they have free wifi in most of the prominent public areas, their public transport system is efficient - it is absolutely safe even at night and locals are disciplined. Indeed, it is a perfect wealthy city.
Pinay's Travel Guide to Schengen Regions, Europe
Walk with Cham in Europe.
It was three magical weeks in Europe, my dream destination. And even if 3 months had already passed, just the thought of my entire experience still makes me kilig. I've only been to Europe once so I'm not really an expert on this but I will share with you what I learned about the Schengen countries I had visited based on our 3-week vacation in Austria, Italy, Netherlands and France.
How to Apply for a Schengen Visa at the French Embassy for Philippine Passport
#WalkwithChaMikeinEurope #honeyMOONWALKwithChaMike
Never thought that applying for a Schengen Visa is actually fast! Yes after submitting our requirements at the VFS.Global we were told that the earliest day that we can get the results is at least 5 days. But lo and behold after 2 days we already got a text that our passports were okay for pick up. I was a bit worried at first that we might have been denied but it was a relief when we found out we were approved. Yay! And we were even given multiple entries! For one month nga lang. hahaha. But at least they were gracious enough to grant us a multiple.
ChaMike's Second Honeymoon: Europe!
#WalkwithChaMikeinEurope #HoneyMOONWALKwithChaMike.
My ultimate dream is to travel to Europe. Yes, it sounds too cliche but who doesn't share that same dream? Like most of the travel junkies, I suppose, traveling to Europe is a MUST, and I, being in love with beautiful, grandiose and historical places had been fantasizing it all my life. Luckily, I was able to tick that off on my list with the help and company of my life partner. It was a year ago when Mike surprised me in one of those travel expos where he paid for our round trip tickets as a honeymoon gift. Grabe! You can just imagine my reaction. Honeymoon in Europe?! What have I ever done to deserve this? Hallelujaaah! So yes after our wedding (Read: My Whimsical Travel Themed Wedding) and first honeymoon in Hong Kong (Read: First Honeymoon: Hong Kong with Family ) Mike and I together with good friends, April and Neal went on a three week honeymoon vacation to EUROPA!
ChaMike's First Honeymoon: Hong Kong with Family
#WalkwithChaMikeinHongKong #HoneyMOONWALKwithChaMike.
Weddings can be great opportunities for grand reunions and ours was no exception. Everybody close to us were all excited for our union and fortunately all of our invited relatives confirmed their attendance including my Mama's siblings and Lola. Lola has 8 children and they're based in different cities two of which live in the US so we were all ecstatic when we knew everyone is coming! And since they never experienced traveling together, Hong Kong was going to be the best place to have a bonding, right? It's close to the Philippines so the airfare is relatively cheaper compared to other countries. It's tourist friendly (they have excellent railway system), the weather was pleasant during the time of our visit and visa free for Filipinos! These and a lot more were the reasons why we chose Hong Kong to spend our grand reunion. Because my parents wanted us to tag along (even if we initially refused because we still had to plan for our Eurotrip!) they insisted on paying for all our expenses, which sounded like a good deal. So off we went to Hong Kong for our first Honeymoon with the fambam!
Hollywood Hotel and Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel
#WorkwithCham at Hong Kong Disneyland Hotels
Working in a foreign country has its perks and if you're lucky enough you can get to stay for free in a neat accommodation just like my experience working at Hong Kong Disneyland. And because I went to HKDL for two separate occasions, one is for the ocular and the other one is for the actual shoot, I was able to stay in two different Disney hotels. Talk about making business a pleasure.

Tententenen! Well, this is the MAIN reason why I haven't updated my blog for the longest time. Yeah. yeah. I know this is a travel blog so I am assuming a lot of you will ask why I am posting Mike and I's wedding. For the simple reason that I want to share with all my dear readers (if you are still there. hehe) the happiest day of my life. After all, this is sort of a 'traveling' for me, well in a metaphoric way - I traveled from MISS to MRS. Right? :) So yes, I am more than proud to say that I am now Mrs Magsaysay <insert kilig reaction here>

When we look at the promotionService in Hybris, there is a method called getPromotionResults(order). It returns PromotionOrderResults object. In this object, two methods are related to my case, getAppliedProductPromotions() and getAppliedOrderPromotions().
If I did not miss it, I could not see product info for a promotion in these methods' results. Also, I looked at all attributes via promotion.getAppliedOrderPromotions().get(0).getAllAttributes() but i could not have them.
How can I know product info and discount amount in a promotion?

A: The method you are looking for is
PromotionOrderResults#getAppliedProductPromotions()
This will return all the promotions applied to order entries / products, you can navigate to the products via PromotionOrderEntryConsumed PromotionResult#getConsumedEntries()

A: I have a way to get the product that was Added as free gift on a promotion... Usually is something like this
Set promotionResultModels = cart.getAllPromotionResults();

  if (!Objects.isNull(promotionResultModels))
  {
     Iterator resultsIterator = promotionResultModels.iterator();

     while (resultsIterator.hasNext())
     {
        PromotionResultModel promoResultModel = (PromotionResultModel) resultsIterator.next();
        Iterator var6 = promoResultModel.getActions().iterator();

        while (var6.hasNext())
        {
           AbstractPromotionActionModel action = (AbstractPromotionActionModel) var6.next();
           if (action instanceof RuleBasedOrderAddProductActionModel)
           {
              String freeGiftProductCode = ((RuleBasedOrderAddProductActionModel) action).getProduct().getCode();

           }
        }
     }
  }

However in my scenario, this is Free Gift promotion, not sure if the Bundle Based Promotion might have similar properties. As per the product that actually FIRED the promotion, I'm still looking a way to get it. The closest I've been is with this:
((RuleBasedOrderAddProductActionModel) action).getRule().getRuleContent()

However that's the Hybris Generated Code that has the RAO's and the product codes are buried within that string. So I needed to write an ugly script parser to find the codes.
Let me know if you find out the second part, the Products that triggered the promos, I'm still looking for it too.
