International Space Station set to pass across the San Antonio sky Sunday evening
By Missy Evans On Jan 15, 2023
Space lovers unite! The International Space Station will be passing through the South Central Texas sky Sunday evening.
While patches of mid and high-level clouds may still be streaming across parts of the area, it's worth heading outside to try to catch a glimpse of the ISS as it passes overhead.
Visibility Starts: 6:27pm CST
Visibility Ends: 6:34pm CST
Appears: 10° above the SSW horizon
Disappears: 10° above the NE horizon
Max height: 53°
Sunday evening's flyover should be a decent one logistically since the ISS's max height is expected to reach above 50°. NASA notes that flyovers typically over 40° provide the best chances for viewing since they are visible above most buildings and landscapes.
According to NASA, the International Space Station looks like a bright star or an airplane (without the flashing lights) moving almost across the night sky. For reference, airplanes generally fly around 600 mph, but the space station travels at a speed of over 17,000 mph!
According to NASA, the first part of the International Space Station was launched in November 1998. After assembling additional pieces over the course of the following 24 months, the station was ready for the first crew to arrive in November 2000.
Scientists from the United States and partners around the world completed the construction of the space station in 2011. The ISS has been home to humans since the first crew arrived almost 22 years ago, and allows crew members to perform unique research on a day-to-day -day basis.

I've had my hair for awhile now and I absolutely love it. There is minimal shedding and it looks very real. I'm considering getting another one just because I love it so much. I would highly recommend this hair and company because I think they are both GREAT!!!
I have had this wig over one year and it is still in great shape. I will order again in longer length.
This is the most natural wig I have ever seen. I love the thickness.
I got exactly what I asked for! The hair is soft and easy to manage and does not tangle. Love it!
This hair is very silky and soft. I have had it for over 2 months. The hair looks still healthy. I love this hair so much. This is the best lace wig I have had so far.
I received the hair yesterday. It's very nice and looks natural. It is a little silky for me. But it's OK. Next time, I'll try the yaki texture.

When I travel to an unfamiliar city, I usually check the major routes and addresses of places on a local map. It saves me from driving around in circles.
The strange names in our passage today are like Matthew's version of MapQuest. Matthew wants to tell us that Jesus will begin his ministry among people who desperately need his presence. He will start in "Galilee of the Gentiles," showing that he has come into a world lost in darkness. But he will also be a light piercing the darkness--and Jesus doesn't travel alone.
Jesus invites disciples to follow along on his journey, and they're just ordinary folks like us, without great credentials. As the apostle Paul reminds us, God uses the foolish, the weak, and the lowly of this world to show that it isn't about us but about God and his power working through us (1 Corinthians 1:26-31).
Getting ready for this journey with Jesus means we need to repent. "Repent," Jesus preached, "for the kingdom of heaven is near." Repentance means turning around from our dead-end ways that will end up getting us killed eternally, and heading in a new direction. It means starting over, living differently.
Jesus came to live in "Galilee of the Gentiles"--an ordinary place like your own area. That's where God wants to shine his light into the darkness through you.
Lord, thank you for caring about real cities and streets and people like the ones around us. May our lives shine like a beacon of hope for you in what are often dark places.	Amen.

Can TV announcers PLEASE stop trying to be sports officials? Given how frequently they are wrong about what they say regarding calls on the baseball and football fields, or basketball court (the three sports where the TV guys most frequently second guess decisions made by the officiating crews), the announcers should all be fired.
The problem is, the networks don't hold them responsible. And the average fan doesn't know any better when it comes to the rules and their enforcement in these three major sports.
These guys drive me batty. And make no mistake, it is mostly guys. For some reason, I don't see female announcers jumping in to judge the officials nearly as often, but that could be because they don't have as many chairs in the announcing booths yet. They could still catch up.
Here is just on recent example. The New England Patriots were playing the New Orleans Saints in an NFL (National Football League for the uninitiated) game a few weeks back. The Saints offense tried to draw the Patriots off sides by barking signals.
The offensive line moved, which signifies an illegal movement by that player, and means a five-yard penalty. The two announcers, Troy Aikman and Thom Brennaman, decided with their massive expertise that this was the "wrong" call.
Aikman, in particular, mouthed off several times about how "bad" it was. The movement was replayed 6-8 times. Over and over and over, the video showed clearly that the officials on the field were correct in their ruling.
Did this stop Aikman from spewing? Of course not. He's paid to be the expert. He can say whatever he wants. There is no one to stop him, no one to rein him in, no one to tell him he's blind because he cannot see clearly what is going on down on the field.
Instead, the "blind" comments get reserved for the referees and umpires who actually saw the play, enforced the rule properly and kept the game under control. Announcers like Aikman and Brennaman need to shut up about subjects and situations where they are amateurs.
The chirping from the booths and sidelines against officials has grown increasingly antagonistic over the years, and when you have half-informed announcers pretending they know the rules, things are made worse. They infect the fans because the fans think the announcers actually do know what they are talking about.
This is bad for sports, sports fans, and civil behavior in general. A note to sports announcers: Stop yapping on things which you know nothing about. It only makes you look foolish.
His stunning lack of knowledge was appalling. And, he pretended he was a rules guru. It was nauseating when you listened to him explain rules to viewers as if he was the expert. All he did was drive fans down the road of ignorance.
Current or former officials are the experts. Television stations should hire them and tell the other announcers to zip it.
Not only is the misapplication and misinterpretation of rules misleading to viewers, but it implies a license to criticize at length. Sports announcers are paid to report on the game and give it some analysis. Once they start acting like they know it all when it comes to rules and their enforcement, fans accept this "truth" and believe it. The biggest danger from this is that once an incorrect statement is made, it's not retracted, so it develops a life of its own, influencing others, and perpetuating further incorrect/inaccurate views about the ruling on the play.
Announcers should keep their mouths shut about officiating. If they want to have someone talk about it on the air, hire me. I'm available.
As part of a work experiment, I drew a "Laugh-o-meter" on the grease board behind my chair. The idea for this emerged as a coworker would come by on a semi-regular basis and he would make me repeatedly laugh, something that I believe is tremendously important to a healthy work environment.
We would get to talking and I started ranking the levels that he raised my laughs to. "Oh man, you got me cracking up at about a 50 percentile rate." As this occurred over several weeks, the idea was hatched to begin charting the laugh-o-meter.
The concept is simple. A drew a vertical rectangle, and as the day wears on, and laugher occurs, it gets colored in, with the time of day listed on the side to show the rising barometer.
10:45 a.m., last week's Saturday Night Live sketch on boys' dancing is replayed with hand moves and rapping, raising the meter to the 35% range. Later, after lunch, a story is told about camping and rain coming down so hard that a friend on a trip over the weekend ran to the car for protection, yelling she'd had enough. Picturing the woman then texting messages, the car getting warmer because of her body heat and inability to roll down the windows because of the storm, got some more chuckles. At 1:23 p.m., the laugh-o-meter got raised to 53% total for the day.
What began as an experiment became a challenge to keep humor going in the workplace. That's a lot of pressure to put on coworkers, but they've handled it reasonably well.
To add to the experiment (and remember that this is a totally non-scientific study, but still fascinating nonetheless), I began to chart the laugh-o-meter day-to-day. Here's where it starts to get even more enlightening about our daily behavior if you choose to believe this small, unrepresentative sample.
The first week, Monday was off the charts. My coworker was extremely funny that day, poking fun at things, inventing skits. Laugh-o-meter hit about 30% for the day. Tuesday was even better, as he came by several times to crack me up, sending the graph to its historical high of 78% (a perfect 100% would mean repeated full laughs throughout the day). From there, it dipped the rest of the week, rising slightly out of the basement on Friday.
The next week was fairly similar, minus the blip on Tuesday. Monday started out with some decent humor, then a downward trend until Friday, where it jumped a bit.
The following week, the trend continued, though my coworker was swamped, so percentages were down across the board. His mammoth workload continued the week after that, and the dip on the laugh-o-meter forced it to its lowest levels of the month.
Charting the highs and lows yielded numbers and findings that are significant when you consider the ebb and flow of work. First, Monday tended to have some of the best laughs. Our operating theory is that residual humor is left over from the weekend, and we start the week fresh, so our humor antennas are more sensitive.
Second, humor tended to descend for the rest of the week, bottoming out on Wednesday and Thursday. Again, this made sense in theory, as people get engaged in their jobs and busy and don't take time to make someone else laugh.
Finally, we get to Friday, where the laugh-o-meter showed a rising trend. Our experts attributed this positive change to the impending weekend, as we begin seeking out more pleasure signals to prepare us for the fun on Saturday and Sunday.
To summarize: Monday – good; declines Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. Improvement on Friday.
It sounds like our work week as we get settled, focus, buckle down, then release the steam, doesn't it? I wonder if I can get the government to fund this as a study? We'll improve business productivity exponentially with our findings.
There are so many things to feel good about in our daily lives that it's almost difficult to know where to start. That may sound odd given how much negativity is portrayed in the media – all the things not working, arguments, impasses, systems breaking down.
Here's something to consider: When you hear about something bad on the TV news, see if what happens directly affects you. Has it changed your life? Does it do something to you personally? If it doesn't, file it away, and count your blessings.
By all means, do your share. Get involved when an issue is important to you. Volunteer time. Help others. But remember that you can only do your share. Then think about all the positives.
Here's one. The other day, as I was driving to work, there was a car pinned in to my left, and the driver wanted to get in front of me. My lane was dense as well, and it was rush hour and everyone wanted to get to work as fast as possible, kind of an odd syndrome (sarcasm).
It was a nice day. I had my window down, my arm hanging outside. I slowed down, waved my arm for the car to get ahead of me, and he pulled in. He signaled the thumbs up to me when he got settled in front of my car. I beamed. It made my day.
Little things like that happen on all the time. These types of incidents connect us to others, remind us that reaching out and touching someone, even somewhat anonymously as was the case here, is something that enhances your life.
After I waved back at the guy, l floated on air the rest of the commute. I hope he passed it on.
My dad plays a lot of golf. He hacks things up. That means he digs a lot of turf, the toupees of grass flying down the fairway.
Golfers are supposed to replace these divots. Most of the time we do so, and we feel good about this. My dad takes it a step further.
Perhaps he is right. Maybe god is looking down on those little things and seeing how we act. Do we demonstrate a small act of kindness to repair the earth? Regardless of how it is perceived, it's another thing to feel good about. Try it the next time you are on the course.
When our mom was alive, she would take regular walks near our parents' home in Topeka, KS. This dated back to long before "walking" became popular. She was an outdoor person, enjoying the air and exercise. She also cared about her surroundings.
That extended to the garbage so many people carelessly fling out their windows. As she walked, she would pick up the stray cans, bottles and wrappers that had made their way into the trenches along the road where my parents lived. She'd get home, recycle what she could and put the rest in the garbage where it belonged. I'm sure it made her feel good. It certainly made the street they lived on look good, and there's a lot to be said for that – respecting and caring about your local environment.
We all have the capacity for these small good deeds every single moment of every day. They make us smile, feel better and remember we connect to others in seemingly insignificant ways that hold the promise of significant joy.
Does it seem like you frequently purchase a product and the cost goes up, but the value goes down? Cereal boxes and chocolate bars have been shrinking for years. Manufacturers figure out new ways to squeeze the buck from the juice, and the consumer keeps getting hit in the wallet.
The double whammy is when the size goes down AND the price rises, which may happen subtly, but certainly has done so at a regular pace the past 20-30 years. Go back to the food examples, and you know what I mean. A chocolate bar the size of my hand was 5 cents when I grew up. Today, the typical chocolate bar is as thin as a sheet of paper and maybe five inches long, if you're lucky. Have fun downing that and not wanting two more immediately afterwards.
This change is not limited to food. A friend of mine recently went into her local phone provider (PP for short and to keep this safely generic) store. She wanted to downgrade from her current smartphone data plan, and get a new phone.
PPs are charging you to do business with them. We all have options to go to another company. But, I imagine most of us believe we'll get jobbed regardless of where we move, so we argue back and forth with our current PP, hoping the sap we are dealing with sees the logic of our points, and feebleness of his company's approach.
It, of course, didn't turn out that way for my friend, nor does it turn out that way for the rest of us. Being downsized on service and upsized on price leads to a lot of the resentment, estrangement, anger and displacement we feel in the world today. We cannot influence the behemoth in front of us, so we rage, then pay.
The irony in this situation was that my friend wanted her new phone plan not to include the Internet. She did not want the smartphone, just the ability to make phone calls and text. She has an iPad and laptop and can get to them regularly and conveniently, so as she puts it, "Why do I need to respond to emails while I'm on the run?" Indeed.
She makes a great point. We don't need all this stuff. She wanted to get away from some of it, and she still couldn't win. Suffering succotash.
PP fees are out of hand. It is as if they think you are privileged to be doing business with them, rather than being treated as someone who is valued. Then you get charged for something simple, like to renew your contract, as my friend experienced.
"PP fees are ridiculous." I couldn't agree more.
PPs are into your pocket for the phone data plan, Internet, texting, perhaps even cable and long distance through your home phone. They have a direct line to your bank account and it's almost as if they are just drawing blood from your vein.
My friend had it right. Ditch the phone and get a disposable. Now we just have to execute on that plan.

Thought I would start a thread to help those that purchased my eBook set up there bonus pack. If you have a question on where to add your info to the contract, or how to optimize the use of the 100's of grants post here.
Post a reply for question or comments.
question is, other then the title and % in the contract, what else should i change?
If you have entered the title of you movie and changed the % to what you want, they next thing to do would be to add the investor name in the first paragraph and at the end of the contract.
Note: Be sure to change the text before the % to match the % amount. The contract is fully customizable to fit a $100 investment, to $100,000,000 investment.
Then once you finish, your contract is all set for your investors.
First, I am very happy you like it.
Second, just highlight the contents of the pdf file and add it to any text editor to add in your film. If you need, I can send you a .txt file of the proposal.
just finished it- tanks submitting to 15 grant location tomorrow morning.
hey, so i just edit the investor contract where you have [Movie Title Here] right?
Correct, and edit the %'s you want for your investor, I give a sample with it.
Thank you for recommending this forum as well!
Getting F-U-N-D-I-N-G (such a big word for me, well was until now) has been my biggest hurdle, BUT NOW...... now i can get the funding under me belt so I can focus on what i really want to focus on, my creative dream!
4 years i've had this inside me, now it can come out, now the world can see.
WOW, this is to much, I should stop, i'm just sooo happy.
While I appreciate the compliments I was hoping to keep this thread for support, to help anyone with questions or setting up there bonus packs. Thanks again. By if you feel like writing some comments feel free.
I'm looking for that section now.
So I will just say this. Anyone who is an inspiring film maker, writer, director, whatever and you are having a hard time (like me) getting everything ready to start funding, you need to get this book.
Nick is a great guy and seriously knows what he is talking about.
Even though I didnt really have the money I decided to invest the 57 bucks into it and I am only a couple of pages through and all I can say is, its already helped me tremendously.
There is also so much bonus features you get that will really help.
Maybe Nick needs to change this thread from "support" to "Praise".
Glad you like it Havey, wait until you get to the last bonus!!! IT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND!!
no, seriously #4 it's good good!
Honestly, it's changing the way i look at the film industry altogether, really opening up the possibilities..
I have had the distinct pleasure of reading "7 Secrets To Funding Your Film" and after my read I must say that my thoughts on how to proceed are clearer then they were when I first started this adventure. I call it an adventure because when you break new ground you are stepping out on ground you may never have crossed before. New experiences and new acquaintances often breed uneasiness and uncertainty in your direction.
My choices now are clearer then before reading this instructional rendering. Everyone needs a mentor from time to time when they venture out on their own. This book will allow you the privilege of tutorial-ship through its steady guidance and patient approach. The progress that one will experience through this exercise is directly proportional to the preparation and hard work invested.
The head line theme in this directive is the preparation of a business plan. You will never know if you have arrived if you don't scope out the path that you must venture!
I can hardly wait to review the bonus packages where some of the meat and potatoes are; but I had to share my thoughts while they were fresh. Now back to the bonus material, I'm particularly interested in the grants program for the most obvious reasons.
still have not received (how long it take normally?), but really looking to read it!!!
You get it the same day, but I checked and there is no record of you paying. I just got off the phone with PayPal, and there has been no transaction with that number.
Hello Nick, could you post some links where I could find support for my fundraising campaign?
We are at the post production, showings, and music rights. We need capital for it.
Ok Sasori, you should be taken care of!!!
Have you thought about using a Kickstarter or IndieGoGo campaign?
finaly i could got your ebook and bonus and its really a great deal!
many good, clear, true advises and a amazing way to push us to move our aXX to make movies!
i particulary liked the bonus about how to make a movie for $4OO0!

BILL NUMBER: AB 1738	INTRODUCED
INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Tran
An act to amend Section 6228 of the Family Code, relating to
domestic violence.
AB 1738, as introduced, Tran. Domestic violence incident report.
Existing law requires state and local law enforcement agencies to
provide one copy of all domestic violence incident reports, one copy
of all domestic violence incident report face sheets, or both, to a
victim of domestic violence, upon request. Existing law also requires
law enforcement agencies to provide those documents to a
representative of the victim, as defined, if the victim is deceased.
Existing law provides that any person requesting those documents is
required to present his or her identification, as specified, and, if
that person is a representative of the victim, a certified copy of
the death certificate or other satisfactory evidence of the death of
the victim.
This bill would require state and local law enforcement agencies
to provide those documents to the victim's representative regardless
of whether the victim is deceased. The bill would also revise the
definition of "personal representative" to additionally include the
victim's attorney and the victim's designated personal
representative, as specified. By imposing additional duties on local
officials, the bill would create a state-mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.
This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates
determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state,
reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these
statutory provisions.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: yes.
SECTION 1.  Section 6228 of the Family Code is amended to read:
6228.  (a) State and local law enforcement agencies shall provide,
without charging a fee, one copy of all domestic violence incident
report face sheets, one copy of all domestic violence incident
reports, or both, to a victim of domestic violence, or to his or her
representative  if the victim is deceased  , as
defined in subdivision (g), upon request. For purposes of this
section, "domestic violence" has the definition given in Section
(b) A copy of a domestic violence incident report face sheet shall
be made available during regular business hours to a victim of
domestic violence or his or her representative no later than 48 hours
after being requested by the victim or his or her representative,
unless the state or local law enforcement agency informs the victim
or his or her representative of the reasons why, for good cause, the
domestic violence incident report face sheet is not available, in
which case the domestic violence incident report face sheet shall be
made available to the victim or his or her representative no later
than five working days after the request is made.
(c) A copy of the domestic violence incident report shall be made
available during regular business hours to a victim of domestic
violence or his or her representative no later than five working days
after being requested by a victim or his or her representative,
domestic violence incident report is not available, in which case the
domestic violence incident report shall be made available to the
victim or his or her representative no later than 10 working days
after the request is made.
(d) Any person requesting copies under this section shall present
state or local law enforcement with his or her identification, such
as a current, valid driver's license, a state-issued identification
card, or a passport and, if the person is a representative of the
victim  and the victim is deceased  , a certified copy of
the victim at the time a request is made.
(e) This section shall apply to requests for face sheets or
reports made within five years from the date of completion of the
domestic violence incidence report.
(f) This section shall be known, and may be cited, as the Access
to Domestic Violence Reports Act of 1999.
(g) (1) For purposes of this section, a representative of the
victim means any of the following:
(A) The  surviving   victim's  spouse.
(B) A  surviving  child of the  decedent
victim  who has attained 18 years of age.
(C)  A   The victim's  domestic partner,
as defined in subdivision (a) of Section 297.
(D) A surviving  parent of the  decedent
victim  .
(E)  A surviving   An  adult relative
of the victim  .
(F) The public administrator if one has been appointed.
(G) The victim's attorney.
(H) The victim's designated personal representative who has
written authorization signed by the victim or a court order making
him or her the personal representative.
(2) A representative of the victim does not include any person who
has been convicted of murder in the first degree, as defined in
Section 189 of the Penal Code, of the victim, or any person
identified in the incident report face sheet as a suspect. Domestic
violence incident report face sheets may not be provided to a
representative of the victim unless  the   both
of the following conditions are met:
(A)     The  representative
presents   shall present  his or her
identification, such as a current, valid driver's license, a
state-issued identification card, or a passport  and a
(B) The representative shall also present one of the following:
(i)     If the victim is deceased, a
certified copy of the death certificate or other satisfactory
evidence of the death of the victim at the time of the request.
(ii) If the victim is alive, a written authorization signed by the
victim or a court order making him or her the victim's personal
representative.
SEC. 2.  If the Commission on State Mandates determines that this
act contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement to local
agencies and school districts for those costs shall be made pursuant
to Part 7 (commencing with Section 17500) of Division 4 of Title 2 of
the Government Code.


Do you have a theme for the week??
We are talking about Lent and Easter, but I would appreciate suggestions on other subjects also. Thanks.
We did something cool in vacation bible school when I was younger, but can't remember what age or grade. It's making a cool cross with burnt matches. If you are interested, I'll try and type up some instructions with pictures.
would you have access to the oven?
Give each child a triangle of cresent rolls.
The cresent roll represents the cloth that Jesus was wrapped in.
Dip the buttered marshmallow in the cinnamon and sugar.
This represents the spices used to annoint the body of Jesus.
but like the tomb - IT IS EMPTY!
I have a little Easter lesson that you put different objects into plastic Easter Eggs and put them in an egg carton. Then you teach about Easter by opening up the eggs and talking about what's inside them and how they symbolize different things that pertain to Christ's life, death, and resurrection. The kids could assemble the kits and then have them to take home and share with their families.
This was great, the kids loved it and I think they got the message. THANKS!

How old does a star have to be for us to see it?
The stars in our Universe are so far away that it can take years for their light to reach us here on Earth.
We get light years as a measure of distance from this: one light year is the distance light travels through space in one Earth year. So, if a star is born one light year away, we'll only be able to see its birth a year later.
This is why new telescopes, on the ground and in space, are always straining to see further into the Universe: the further away you look, the further back in time you can see, giving tantalising hints as to what the early Universe looked like.
The answer to the question then, is that you can see any star of any age: it just depends where you are.
We can see 10-year-old stars when the time's right, but the light takes so long to travel to us that when we see a 10-year-old star, the star itself could now be 20 years old. To see a star before it reaches the ripe old age of 10, it has to be less than 10 light years away.
As a comparison, our Sun is just 0.000015 light years away, but after that the nearest star to us – Proxima Centauri – is 4.2 light years away, so when we look at it through a telescope, what we're actually seeing is what Proxima Centauri looked like 4.2 years ago.
There are 12 stars (including our Sun) that are less than 10 light years away from us, so we would have been able to see them before they reached the age of 10.


My second post with Minerva Crafts is up over on their blog today! I finally made myself a Wiksten Haori jacket, using some beautiful plaid wool. It's the perfect coat – it is pretty, warm, and it has GIANT pockets!

Q: is there Azure service bus message expire event Is there Azure service bus message expire event? .
I could see TimeToLive  property according this  source. i am sending messages to azure service bus queue and need to identify when those message are expired .

A: Expired messages are dropped from the queue. There's no event.
You can enable dead-lettering of the expired messages and the dead-letter reason would indicate message expiration as the reason for the message ending up in the dead-letter queue.

My interests in archaeometric methods largely developed through research that was aimed at identifying the production, use and exchange of pottery among maritime hunter-gatherers.
I am particularly interested in the use of elemental characterization methods (ICP-MS, LA-ICP-MS and pXRF) as a means to explore the movement and exchange of artifacts. In my dissertation and a recent article in Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports (Gjesfjeld 2018), I outline the results of characterization analysis by highlighting the differential amount of pottery movement between different cultural occupations. Broadly speaking, I identified during the Epi-Jomon occupation of the Kuril Islands, pottery was largely made and used locally. However, during the Okhotsk occupation of the island chain, pottery appears to have been moved and exchanged over greater distances.
Results of this work can be found in an upcoming volume of Archaeometry (Moreau et al. 2018).
As highlighted in an upcoming book chapter in Ceramics in Circumpolar Prehistory: Technology, Lifeways, and Cuisine (edited by Peter Jordan and Kevin Gibbs) I drew upon a range of archaeometric methods to investigate the production and use of pottery in the Kuril Islands (Gjesfjeld 2018). This included x-ray diffraction to measure mineralogy and petrography to examine pottery porosity and non-plastic inclusions. Organic residue analysis served as the primary method for inferring pottery use with results indicating a strong association of pottery with marine mammal lipids particularly in Okhotsk pottery. These results provide an intriguing hypothesis that the unusually high quantity of pottery in this remote region could be linked to the widespread production and distribution of marine oil.

Competitive Bowling; the Game with a 7,000-Year History

Bowling: From Ancient Egypt to Contemporary America
One of the most popular sports today, bowling, has a surprisingly long history. In modern bowling, players roll a weighted ball down a 60-foot lane to knock down ten pins which are arranged in a triangular formation.
Due, perhaps, to its relative simplicity, bowling enjoys enormous popularity. According to estimates, 100 million people worldwide play the game regularly, including 70 million in the US alone.
A Pharaonic Pastime
While bowling is typically associated with contemporary America, its history can be traced back thousands of years. An Egyptian tomb from 5,200 BC contains wall paintings that appear to depict the game, while the remains of ancient bowling balls and pins have been found in Egyptian graves from 3,200 BC.
What's more, during the Roman Empire (about 2,000 years ago), Roman legionaries developed a game in which large rocks were tossed at stationary stone objects. This later evolved into bocce, an Italian game believed to be an early precursor of modern bowling.
Bowling Today
Bowling is now widely recognized as a serious sport, and several major events are held every year. The most well-known of these is the World Tenpin Bowling Championship, which draws competitive bowlers worldwide.
In 2015, bowling came within a hair's breadth of becoming an official Olympic sport. However, it was ultimately left out of the 2020 Summer Olympics due to the exceptionally high cost of building Olympic-size bowling facilities.
Modern sports have led to some fascinating advances. You can even place online bets on the outcomes of physical games. Online sports betting gives you a whole new way to enjoy your favorite games.

Equifax Partner Breaches Customer Data

Follow @philmuncaster
A technology partner of the three big credit reporting agencies has been breached in what appears to be a classic supply chain attack.
Image-I-Nation Technologies is a North Carolina-based provider of software and hosting services. It's part of FRS Software, which produces employee and background screening software used by Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, among other organizations.
Although the firm remains tight-lipped on the nature of the incident, breach notifications to various US states shed some light on what happened.
It claimed hackers may have had a two-week window in which to steal sensitive personal information including Social Security numbers, names, dates of birth and home addresses.
"On December 20, 2018, Image-I-Nation Technologies discovered that there had been unauthorized access to our database containing the personal information of individuals who had a consumer report through our system at some point in the past," it revealed in a noticed published by the Montana DoJ.
"Based upon our investigation, we have determined that the incident began on or about November 1, 2018 and that our systems were secure as of November 15, 2018."
The firm claimed not to be aware of any misuse of personal info as a result of the incident, but that will not reassure those whose details have been exposed to the risk of identity theft and follow-on phishing attacks.
It's unclear how many individuals may have been affected although Infosecurity has been able to locate breach notifications filed with at least four states: Washington, Montana, Vermont and New Hampshire.
Given Image-I-Nation's relationship with the big credit agencies, it's perhaps not surprising that it has been targeted by hackers looking for valuable identity information. Although cyber-criminals have gone after the agencies themselves, most notably in a major breach of around 148 million Equifax customers, they may view trusted partners of the firms as an even softer target.
"It is clear that even if an organization has excellent cybersecurity, there can be no guarantee that the same standards are applied by contractors and third-party suppliers in the supply chain," the UK's National Cyber Security Centre warned last year. "Attackers will target the most vulnerable part of a supply chain to reach their intended victim."
Image-I-Nation is not to be confused with a UK chip specialist which shares the same name, without the hyphens.

Trump Plays Media Like A Fiddle
Not only has GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump managed to garner himself billions in free media coverage, he's managed to turn the media's own bias against them. As we reported earlier today, Donald Trump's past association with the birther movement was brought back to life this week as a Hillary Clinton talking point, and Trump felt the need to address that.
This morning, Trump held a press conference at the presidential ballroom of the new Trump International Hotel, under the guise that he'd be taking questions over whether he still believes President Obama was born in the U.S. Except Trump wasn't about to let the media try to create a new controversy around an issue that's been dead for years now. Instead, as the Daily Callerreported, he used the opportunity to showcase his military endorsements.
The media got more than a half hour of a variety of military heroes — generals, medal of honor recipients and a gold star wife — expressing support for the Republican nominee. And it all aired live on the cable news networks.

Look this up on Google it's Epic, "Michael the black man" declaring that he was voting for Trump! He also pointed out that the whole Democrat idea that Trump is a racist is nothing but a lie.
He points out that the mainstream media refuses to report the fact that black leaders, the Black Nationalist Movement and even Black Lives Matter are ALL speaking out against Clinton!
He also wants other black voters to rally behind Trump and tells other blacks that they don't have to be ashamed to break the ranks and go for Trump! USA! USA! USA!
Check this out- it's really epic!

According to one of or quite possibly THE most deplorable, dishonest, lying, cheating, thieving, America hating scam artists of all times, Hillary Clinton, my family, friends & all really good, productive Americans are deplorable.
Deplorable because we know we should enforce our immigration laws.?
Deplorable because we don't want to allow anyone into America without first knowing their background and what they believe.
I'm deplorable because, unlike the legions of politically correct zombie supporters of this nasty criminal Hillary, I know political correctness in all its various machinations is a public cancer that rots free expression & is destroying the very foundations of America.
Deplorable because I believe Fedzilla give-away programs are soul rotting addictive dope that creates dependent addicts of sheeple.
I'm deplorable because I know the daily engineered recidivism gun-related violence in Chicago, Detroit, St. Louis, Newark & South Central and other urban runaway punkcenters is the result of a lack of responsible parents in the home—not easy access to guns.
Deplorable because I know President Obama has done less for black Americans than any other president in modern times.
I'm deplorable because I know that less government is best government.
Deplorable because I know the engine of our nation has been strangled by President Obama & braindead bloodsucking leftists over the last seven and half years and that Hillary will continue to choke it to death if she's elected.
Deplorable because I know that a man, regardless how he feels about his sexual orientation on a given day, does not need to be in the same restroom as a little girl.
Deplorable because I know I'm a free man, not some blind fool with a ring through his nose.

I saw Trump had Gen Flynn on display, just after the embarrassing Powell email leak where Powell essentially said Flynn was an incompetent who found refuge among the right wing loons. Trump does know how to play to the crowd, though. He needs the Idiot Demographic. Trump lied about the Birther thing. Clinton didn't start it. A couple of Clinton supporters floated something about it in like 2007, and it was quickly disavowed, but the real Birther movement was always a right wing fixation. His mother was American, so most people felt that was enough. Of course Trump would have us thank him for finally clearing all that up. Idiot Demographic again...
Thersites September 17, 2016 at 1:11 PM
Last I checked, the birther meme originator par excellence, Sid Blumenfeld was still attached to Hillary's hip and NEVER disavowed...
Why do you think that the Obama Admin never gave good old "Sid" a State Department post and he had to spend his days sending Hillary classified e-mails on an unclassified server?
After her January 2009 appointment as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton wanted to hire Blumenthal. However, Obama's chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, blocked his selection due to lingering anger among President Barack Obama's aides over Blumenthal's role in promoting negative stories about Obama during the Democratic primary.[8] According to a report in the New York Times, "Emanuel talked with Mrs. Clinton ... and explained that bringing Mr. Blumenthal on board was a no-go. The bad blood among his colleagues was too deep, and the last thing the administration needed, he concluded, was dissension and drama in the ranks. In short, Mr. Blumenthal was out."
Don't just believe me. Believe the Daily Kos from 2008.
ps - Hillary just couldn't resist the Trump tar-baby could she? :)
Of course, the Clinton campaign has denied pushing the Obama=Muslim plant smear.
Despite the words of Clinton endorser Bob "Secular Madrassa" Kerrey.
Despite the fact that multiple Clinton volunteer coordinators in Iowa were busted spreading it via email.
Despite "As far as I know."
Despite the fact that somehow the email traffic of this rumor tracks very closely with the primary schedule.
There's smoke, and then there's fire.
Now, I find it entirely plausible that the Clinton campaign doesn't willfully push the madrassa rumor (as opposed to Farrakhan, Jesse Jackson, Jeremiah Wright, terrorist sympathizer, Rezko, etc etc). But, there is no doubt that there is an organic movement within Clinton's own supporter base to push these racist smears and to use the campaign-funded website to do it.
Well at least you linked to a credible source Thersites. Sometimes politics are simply smoke and mirrors. And the Trump campaign excels at it.
Donald Trump has spent the 2016 presidential campaign letting voters know just how successful he has been as a real-estate developer, casino mogul and dealmaker. But his business career has been anything but stellar. Click on the video below for a journey through Trump's reality-distortion field:
Ducky's here September 17, 2016 at 3:16 PM
Love the Breitbart article, Farmer.
Blumenthal just walks in, tells them (with no supporting evidence) that they should investigate Kenya as Obama's birthplace, McClatchy goes to the expense of sending a reporter to Kenya who somehow decides the rumor is false.
You believe that crap?
Around here it usually takes someone like Freethinke, mystere or Radical Redass to believe something that ridiculous.
Go have a good cry with Orly Taitz.
-FJ September 17, 2016 at 6:33 PM
So the guys at Kos are liars, ducky? Chicago Deadfish Rham Immanuel is a liar, too? Your favorite party must be filled with them. :)
from the Kos link above: Even if the false claims about Obama originally emanated from the neoconservative right, the Clinton campaign has eagerly pushed them. Clinton operative Sidney Blumenthal has e-mailed damaging stories about Obama to reporters, including a recent article by (rightwing Human Events author John Batchelor). Clinton fundraiser Annie Totah circulated a column by (American Thinker founder) Ed Lasky before Super Tuesday, with the inscription "Please vote wisely in the Primaries." Clinton adviser Ann Lewis falsely referred to Zbigniew Brzezinski, a critic of AIPAC, as a chief adviser to Obama on a conference call with Jewish reporters. "I can tell you for a fact people from the Clinton campaign are calling reporters and asking them to pay attention to things involving Obama and Israel," says Shmuel Rosner, Washington correspondent for the Israeli daily Ha'aretz. The volume of e-mails about Obama in a given state tends to track the election calendar--hardly a coincidence.
Heck, Sid Blumenthal is probably the one who convinced Trump to become a "birther" in the first place.
That's right Ducky he just walked in .Geez

The Debonair Dude September 18, 2016 at 5:58 AM
Gotta love these Dems, the revisionists of history. She was diagnosed on Friday, yet scheduled to do a long 9/11 ceremony? They already said it was heat exhaustion. These leftist idiots can't even keep their lies straight.
I don't need to see her medical records. Her actions and behavior in public are enough for me and should be enough for everyone else who has the brains to think on their own..... She would just fabricate her medical records anyway, these people lie about everything. Her doctor is already lying about her being diagnosed with pneumonia on Friday. You don't get diagnosed with pneumonia on Friday and then go out to a log drawn-out even on Sunday!... Not the "Smartest Women in the World"!
Medical Experts AGREE!: HILLARY CLINTON HAS PARKINSON'S DISEASE (as well as liars syndrome) - The Daily Presser Seriously, is this woman qualified to be President when flashes of light send her into a seizure? Does this mean that she has to stay away from all cameras? Well yes it does which is why she can not have a press conference.
Actually Hillary Clinton does not lie, because a schitzo actually believes their BS................. Hillary just reinvents the facts to suit her mental needs at the moment.
But the Hillary Faithful STILL believe that she was just over-heated and dehydrated...Well actually you dumbass's Parkinsons disease causes people to fall often. LOL, but your stupidity is noted.....That's right. She's in perfect health and all the coughing fits, the falling down and emergency exits in ambulances etc really didn't happen.

Donkey's Revenge September 18, 2016 at 12:55 PM
Why do SO many people hate Hillary Clinton?
From B-E-N-G-H-A-Z-I to her E-Mails, let me count the ways!
I don't know if there has ever been so much HATRED for another Presidential Candidate than there is for Hillary Clinton.. that have encapsulated a presidential campaign like Benghazi has.
Although Benghazi has dominated the nearly four years of congressional hearings and concurrent investigations by the FBI, State Department, and Department of Justice. This month's conclusion of the Department of Justice's criminal investigation into Clinton's mishandling of classified material over her private email set-up, which resulted in no charges, has only raised new questions about Clinton's suitability for office
While Trump seems to have a mini amount of scandals himself, but compared to Hillary's, his is small potatoes. Clinton's handling of her classified emails while secretary of state itself a scandal within an alleged scandal that began after the Republican's Benghazi inquiry discovered her private email use is the sole focus of countless congressional hearings, an entire House special committee, and numerous investigations by the executive branch. Not to mention extensive coverage . Further, many have long claimed Clinton lied about the reasons behind the Sept. 11, 2012, attack on a U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya which left four Americans dead, including U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and, along with others in the Obama administration, otherwise misled the public in the aftermath.
Throughout all of the outrage and hubbub over Clinton's "damn emails," as Democratic challenger Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) famously called them, Conservative Twitter has remained positively teeming with Benghazi analysis. The FBI's recommendation that the Department of Justice droped an investigation related to Clinton's emails only added fuel to the fire. And to add fuel to the fire, there's the Clinton Foundation, that alone is one of the Hottest Subjects to ever hit the Internet.
And if that isn't enough, the The Butcher of Benghazi Hillary Clinton's use of the term "DEPLORABLE" was the straw that broke the Camels back.
And I'm not even going to get into her PHONY excuse for her sickness..Also, I really have a problem with what she & the Clinton Foundation has done in Haiti after BILLIONS of $'s were give to the people of Haiti after the earthquake of 2010, and the Clinton Foundation was in "CHARGE" of all that money. The people of Haiti still do not have running water In their homes and have to take out their body waste in a bucket! "Deplorable" conditions for the people of Haiti at the hands of the Clintons!!! That is where the use of the word deplorable should be used!!! What she has done in Haiti to those people there, 73 deaths of Americans and people overseas, Benghazi, the emails, and so much more. I can not stand the Black Widow and her hatred for Americans Black and White
Donkey's Revenge September 18, 2016 at 1:08 PM
The real reason why liberals are panicked: Black voters are turning from Clinton to Trump in the newest poll.. Diamond and Silk said earlier today that Obama's threat to the Black community that he will hold them responsible and be disappointed if they don't vote for Hillary. Diamond and Silk said Democrats, like this President and the Black Caucus act like they own African Americans in this country and have to get their permission to vote. They spoke of how the Black Caucus DEMANDED that Donald J Trump go through them first before going to black neighborhoods. Diamond and Silk were very angry along with a lot of people who called in, the majority African Americans saying the Black Caucus doesn't own them nor do they speak for them.. They're right. The Plantation mentality of Democrats is disgusting... this new poll is amazing. Trump saw a 16.5 percentage-point increase in backing from African-American voters in a Los Angeles Look for the Leftists to trash them all as Uncle Tom's and what the female equivalent of Uncle Tom is I don't know, but the females also will be trashed. Blacks need to have people like Condi Rice, Ben Carson etc as role models not Gangsta Rappers with Bling. While Crooked Hillary was using a James Brown song the other day, the only problem with that is that James Brown was a Republican of course.
KIPLING'S LITTLE MAN
________ ~ or ~ _________
_ Bolshevism Revisited _
A Leftist caught in doubt
Lifts up his head to shout:
Your treatment is unfair,
You bully! How you dare
To question my veracity
With cruel, hard-eyed tenacity
I do not know. My views
Which boldly you accuse
Of being falsely ranked
In truth are sacrosanct.
My thoughts are Holy Writ.
Your thoughts are quite unfit;
Based on selfish fears
They inspire tears
And dare to say the blame
Lies squarely in the frame
Of those whose failing lives
Look to him who thrives
And say: Your gold is mine,
You greedy, bloated swine.
You have more than you need.
It's up to you to feed
Me, the ill and weak,
Else Heaven that you seek
Will ever be denied.
And I will see your hide
Shredded, tanned and dried.
And hung outside the gates
Of each neighborhood that hates
The needy and the poor,
Who soon will storm your door
And drag you from your bed
And then lop off your head.
While the masses you denied
Will ever take great pride
Your ignominious demise
Was effected in the guise
Of condign righteous wrath
Giving Bourgeois digs a bath.
With stolen food and goods
We'll raze your neighborhoods
And laugh to see you hurt
Dying in the dirt.
WE DO NOT CARE TO RISE:
We live for your demise.
We thrive on righteous hate.
It is by now too late
To make a plan to stop us
End the Founder's opus.
Our Marx destroyed your God.
He's in - not on - the sod
Feeding nematodes
In their dark abodes.
With mockery and shrill
Sarcastic gibes we kill.
We drool with sheer delight
At the thought of endless night.
Where everything that's witty,
Charming, gracious, pretty
Slumps to the nitty gritty,
As we revel in the dung
Corrupting all your young.
For 'we are the little folk, we
Too little to love or to hate.
Leave us alone, and you'll see
How quickly we'll drag down the state.'*

It's My Opinion September 20, 2016 at 7:22 AM
By now everybody has heard the news over the weekend. Multiple bombs in the New York and New Jersey area, fortunately most did not detonate and no one was killed though dozens were injured. The bomber, who was later apprehended, is Ahmad Khan Rahami a refugee from Afghanistan. He had been arrested for gun crimes and violence, had traveled to Afghanistan to Taliban areas and had shown clear signs of radicalizing yet was not on any terror watch list.
In St. Cloud Minnesota, a Somali refugee went on a stabbing rampage specifically targeting non-Muslims.
Meanwhile, Obama could not bring himself to describe these events as acts of terror. And Hillary Clinton blamed Donald Trump claiming he is a "recruiting sergeant for the terrorists."
Yes, Hillary claims that Trump is the reason these guys are attacking us, and Obama says this is a war of words. Nonsense. I was told 23 years ago by a Kuwaiti Intelligence officer that our freedoms will defeat us. It's not that we are evil or we talk bad about Muslims, because this was years before 911. Muslims feel that because we are friends with Israel, we are a target. Democrats are greasing the skids for further attacks with their politically-correct policies. This guy never would have been able to carry out this attack. He never would have been allowed to reenter the US after spending time in terrorist hotspots in the Middle East. This is terrorism 101. Only a fool wants be nice to these people and basically lay out the Red Carpet to attack us.
After eight years of the Obama/Clinton policy of trying to placate radical Islam (perhaps we should just use the word appease) it's difficult to imagine how the massive spike in recent terror attacks can be traced to anything but a failure of the Obama/Clinton anti-whatever they call it, policy.
And while Obama continues to insist we need not be concerned about a new wave of Muslim immigrants while Hillary suggests we should increase the numbers by about 500%.... Go figure that out!
Terror attacks in the United States have been increasing in frequency since Obama became President.
Whether it was the Fort Hood or Chattanooga shootings, Boston Marathon bombings, San Bernadino or Orlando shootings and now this the common thread is that the perpetrators are all radical Muslims. Most were immigrants or refugees.
So tell me more about how you blame the cops! Go ahead, I dare you!.
Obviously the policies of his Administration to stop those attacks have failed. Hillary Clinton played a key role in implementing the foreign and national security policy to address these issues. It isn't Trump who is the best friend that terrorists have but it's Obama and Hillary Clinton!
We all knew it was coming. He waited longer than I had hoped, but there is still time for him to make a difference in a borderline red state. He could turn a slightly red state to vivid blue.
Alfred E. Newman for President. The sentence that makes liberals jump for joy and conservatives tremble in fear. According to sources close to the retiring from his popular Magazine , Newman has formed an exploratory committee for a 2016 Senate run. In much the same way Hillary Clinton has worked her way to presidential contention, Mr. Newman is believed to be setting himself up to run for the highest office in either 2020 or 2024 depending on the outcome of the 2016 election.

After multiple terrorist attacks launched across the U.S over the weekend, Hillary Clinton placed blame at the feet of the man she says is responsible for recruiting ISIS terrorists across the globe: Donald Trump. Amazing!
Hussein Obama blamed everything on Bush and now Hillary is doing it on Trump. This is stupidity run amuck! I really hope that the American people are smart enough to see through this stupidity. This "wicked woman" is really good at always blaming "someone else" for everything negative that happens, but she will never accept blame Or admit that she took part in anything negative.
According to this unprincipled woman, it will always be "someone else's fault". Hillary is so perfect let her tell it...but everyone else according to her are "DEPLORABLE" !
