Smart marketers are plunging headlong into social media and extending their brands and ecosystems to boldly go where no brand has ever gone before. The digital landscape is exciting, it's where the buzz seems to be, but the true catalyst of growth and change, I believe resides in the place where your digital and analog worlds collide.
In other words, when you can build a network by conversing with seemingly like minded individuals on your blog and then turn one or more of those individuals into strategic alliances built on a burgeoning relationship of truse, and finally, get a chance to introduce that person to a good customer over lunch, well that's what I call the ultimate cross channel experience.
To me, twitter is not simply another extended world to manage, it's an opportunity to initiate community based on ideas instead of geography or industry and then potentially explore ways to move members of that community into other exciting and profitable relationships.
I had a brief conversation on this subject over the weekend with David Armano, author of a great blog called Logic+Emotion. David creates incredibly effective illustrations of ideas and concepts. Visual thinkers will love his work. – Spend some time with this set of illustrations.
What I'm really talking about here of course is integration of marketing messages, campaigns, opportunities and channels, but I think the ability to do this in planned, impactful, and scalable ways has increased dramatically through the addition of social media. But, not to the total exclusion of the conference, chamber social or MeetUp.
Bottom line: we need to think intentionally about the ways to use online to create richer offline opportunities.

The BCFA in 2007 had been experiencing a long-term decline in the number of members and revenues were under threat. As 2008 approached, which was to include an unseen recession, the future of the Association would be tested.
Key actions were identified to form a strategy that would slow down and reverse the decline in membership, reset the fee structure for new members, articulate the value of being a member and introduce an intensive communication programme. Over 600 visits were made in 8 years to existing and prospective members to build relationships and understand what made them tick and of course what they needed from the Association. The resulting programme of actions reversed the decline in membership and allowed it to grow again.
The average value of a membership increased by 46% and the BCFA reserves grew by 177%. Hard work by a dedicated team following good strategy and a persistent programme of activity worked even during difficult economic times. You cannot underestimate just how much time it may take for a plan of action to resolve a long term problem, particularly if you have to overcome a less than pristine reputation. Believe in the strategy, modify when necessary and be persistent.

US Manafort Plea Debrief (CR)
AP debrief: Manafort pleads guilty, will cooperate
Story No.: apus103887
Dateline: Alexandria, Cleveland, New York, Washington - 14 September 2018
Washington DC - 5 June 2018

Alexandria, Virginia - 14 September 2018
2. SOUNDBITE (English) Eric Tucker, AP Justice Department Reporter:
"Today, former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort pleaded guilty to two federal counts. And most significantly, he agreed to cooperate and special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation. That is a very significant development because it means that he is going to be agreeing to testify and agreeing to provide any sort of information that the Special Counsel asks of him."

6. STILL photo of Paul Manafort talking to reporters at the Republican National Convention
"He pleaded guilty to conspiracy against the United States. And in the course of that he admitted to all sorts of illegal conduct related to his Ukrainian political consulting work that he did over the course of many years. And the principal allegation, or one of the principal allegations, is that he worked as a foreign agent advocating in Ukraine for those political interests and did not register as such with the Justice Department. The Justice Department says if you're going to lobby in the United States on behalf of a foreign government, which is the allegation against Manafort, you have to register. But what's really significant about the cooperation is there is nothing that would stop Paul Manafort from describing to the special counsel acts and crimes and incidents that aren't what he pleaded guilty to. So if he has information that he is not admitting guilt to, he can still provide it to the government. He's still encouraged to provide it to the government. And that is information that of course could be about the campaign and could be about Donald Trump."

ASSOCIATED PRESS - AP CLIENTS ONLY
SOUNDBITE (English) Eric Tucker, AP Justice Department Reporter:
10. "So it's unclear exactly what information Manafort could have about Trump but it is important to note that Manafort led the Trump campaign during a very critical stretch of the 2016 campaign. He was a participant in a Trump Tower meeting in June 2016 that involved the president's son, his son in law Jared Kushner and Manafort and a Russian government lawyer. And the point of that meeting we know from Donald Trump junior himself was to accept and receive dirt about Hillary Clinton. And so that's a significant meeting. We know that Möller is interested in it. So to the extent that Manafort can provide information, I'm sure Mauler would be more than happy to hear anything that Manafort has to say about that."

Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort agreed Friday to cooperate with the special counsel's Russia investigation as he pleaded guilty to federal charges and avoided a second trial that could have exposed him to even greater punishment.
The deal gives special counsel Robert Mueller a key cooperator who led the Trump election effort for a crucial stretch during the 2016 presidential campaign.
It is unclear what information Manafort is prepared to provide to investigators about President Donald Trump or that could aid Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. But the plea nonetheless makes Manafort the latest associate of Trump, a president known to place a premium on loyalty among subordinates, to admit guilt and cooperate with investigators in hopes of leniency.
AP Justice Department reporter Eric Tucker explains, "what's really significant about the cooperation is there is nothing that would stop Paul Manafort from describing to the special counsel acts and crimes and incidents that aren't what he pleaded guilty to."
"So if he has information that he is not admitting guilt to, he can still provide it to the government. He's still encouraged to provide it to the government. And that is information that of course could be about the campaign and could be about Donald Trump," Tucker adds.
The cooperation deal requires Manafort to provide whatever information the government asks of him, though it does not specify what if anything prosecutors hope to receive about Trump.
Given his direct involvement in the Trump campaign, including episodes being scrutinized by Mueller, Manafort could be positioned to provide key insight for investigators working to establish whether the campaign coordinated with Russia.
Manafort was among the participants, for instance, in a June 2016 Trump Tower meeting with Russians and the president's oldest son and son-in-law that was arranged so the campaign could receive derogatory information about Democrat Hillary Clinton. A grand jury used by Mueller has heard testimony about the meeting.
Friday's deal, to charges tied to Ukrainian political consulting work but unrelated to the campaign, was struck just days before Manafort was to have stood trial for a second time.
He was convicted last month of eight financial crimes in a separate trial in Virginia and faces seven to 10 years in prison in that case. The two conspiracy counts he pleaded guilty to on Friday carry up to five years in prison, though Manafort's sentence will ultimately depend on his cooperation.
In the past year, Mueller has secured pleas from a former national security adviser who lied to the FBI about discussing sanctions with a Russian ambassador, a campaign aide who broached the idea of a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin; and another aide who was indicted alongside Manafort but ultimately turned on him. The president's former personal lawyer has separately pleaded guilty in New York.
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders insisted that the Manafort case was unrelated to Trump.
"This had absolutely nothing to do with the president or his victorious 2016 presidential campaign. It is totally unrelated."

Q: KahaDBStore vs KahaDBPersistenceAdapter I m using ActiveMQ 5.9.1 for implementing queue. I had been using KahaDBPersistenceAdapter for persistence.
Recently I found that KahaDBStore is also a persitence adapter.
Anyone please advise which persistence adapter is better for activemq 5.9.1 . What are the differences between the two implementations.
Thanks!

A: KahaDBPersistenceAdapter is a class which is built to perform opeartions  on KahaDB database.
KahaDb is a lightweight,Fast and embedded database in ActiveMQ which is presaent by default with activemq.
So there is no difference between these two.
KahaDBPersistenceAdapter internally works with KahaDB
hope this helps!
Good luck!

I'm asked to design a lot of family rooms and each one tends to be very different. Today, families want a beautiful space, yet still practical to handle everyday spills, kids' running around, etc.
Here are several family rooms that I admire that are still beautiful but are kid-friendly.

After a hard training of one year, a total of 219 youths, including those from Kashmir, were happy to be part of the Indian Army.
The family members of the new soldiers also attended the passing out parade that was held in Srinagar.
Brigadier Suresh Chowhan, who is the commander of the JAKLI Regiment Centre, briefed the role of the JAKLI in many wars fought during the last 5 decades by India.
Lt Gen A K Bhat, a core Army commander of the 15 Corp, was the chief guest at the passing out parade.
The selection comes in the backdrop of the militant attack in the Sunjwan base camp in Jammu earlier this month in which five Indian soldiers and a civilian were killed.


One of the new features in Android 9 Pie is gesture navigation - the three software nav buttons introduced in Android 4.0 have been replaced by a 'pill' that you swipe back and forth. The new navigation method is optional on the Pixel and Pixel 2, but Google has now confirmed that Pixel 3 owners are stuck with it.
In the below tweet, a Google representative confirmed that gesture navigation on the Pixel 3 cannot be disabled. "Pixel 3 introduces a new pattern that will represent navigation on all Android phones going forward, the tweet said. "While change & adapting to new patterns is hard, we believe it's a better navigation pattern & makes app switching a faster experience."
This was already expected, especially since gesture navigation is enabled by default on new phones with Pie. Still, if you were hoping to use the classic nav buttons on your Pixel 3, this might be a bit disappointing.

I agreed with Gen.Nokdu and simplicity of Yi kang to define it, a country is about people's who we care, our neighborhood a village a regions we want to protect not a king who's we never met.
Is such cynical flippant seeing how discrimination could clouding BYH judgment lead him to betrays his country and how the virtue enlighten BYK become a warriors.
Actually i believe at the end the educated BYH could found his true path the divine ways to saves his country.

The country is its people but often as in this case, the leadership trapped in their ivory tower... in their bubble of orpulence... forgets that. They forget that without the people there will be no country... no one to govern. You can see that the aristocrats in this think themselves above everyone and that the common folk work for them instead of the other way around. Or at the very least, it is a symbiotic relationship. Someone needs to work the land, produce the food so that everyone is fed. These people need to be cared for and not taken for granted. But the king is useless... he is so far removed from the realities of what the people face and his impotence as the leader leads to corruption and oppression at the local level. Not only that it opens the door to foreign invaders encroaching. He should be setting the direction for the nation but instead he's reactive.
YH was educated in Japan and was very influenced by the Meiji period advancements. One can understand why. Compared to Japan, Joseon seemed very backward and the common folk were horribly oppressed. He believed that Joseon could take a leaf or two out of the Japanese playbook. I imagine that's why he turned traitor. Ironically he became the monster that he despised about the nobles and officials of Joseon.

Wow Beautiful OST (part 7)

In every civil conflict (the Dongak uprising is not big enough to be called a civil war) there are the idealists who have zeal and willing to offer their lives for their causes, who persuade other to follow them blindly, and their followers who are often ambivalent and would switch side if they sense their side is losing. We see all of that in this tale.
The Baek patriarch was right when he told his younger son... this country was lost long ago... when educated people like yourself go to the other side. The reality of the late Joseon period, is severe illiteracy, wrong education (reading Chinese poetry and Confucian teaching does not help run a country), backward economy based entirely on agriculture, poor tax base inadequate to reform the country.... 1/5 of the population being slaves with wasted human resources for the rich and powerful only...… all of these have to go for Joseon to advance... which eventually it did after the Japanese 35 years of occupation and a Korean War. The Japanese themselves had their own blood letting to progress, during the early Meji period, so it's Joseon turn... then China.
It is ironic when the older brother exhorted their demoralized followers for the night attack that they are going to fight as free men and that the last few months of being free as dongak members were worth all their suffering.... then after 20 thousands perished and they are all hunted down like rats, while the bystanders yell banzai banzai to the Japanese soldiers.... did most of the survivors truly relish that few months as free men, as they hide, mend their wounds, betray... trying to survive?

Unfortunately this quality drama flew under the radar. Story line, along with acting, were superb. I just wished it got more recognition.
Jo Jung Suk, Han Ye Ri, Yoon Shi Yoon, And More Say Goodbye Following The Finale Of "Nokdu Flower"
by S. Cho
Following the last episode on July 13, the cast of SBS's "Nokdu Flower" said goodbye to the drama and its viewers.
"Nokdu Flower" tells the story of two brothers who wind up on opposite sides of the Donghak Peasant Movement of 1894. The movement brought upon a riot during which religious leaders of Donghak and peasants from Jeolla Province joined forces to protest the government's push for Catholicism. Choi Moo Sung played Jun Bong Joon, the main figure to lead an uprising with the common citizens, and Jo Jung Suk played Baek Yi Kang, who works by Jun Bong Joon's side. The drama also focuses on Baek Yi Kang's relationships with his brother Baek Yi Hyun (Yoon Shi Yoon) and Song Ja In (Han Ye Ri).
Along with a photo of himself and his script, Jo Jung Suk shared his admiration for the drama saying, "I think I was very fortunate to have been part of the production 'Nokdu Flower,' which tells the story of an important time period. The last six months were personally very meaningful and happy."
The actor continued, "I want to express my gratitude and respect to the director, writer, cast, and all the other staff, as well as every extra who portrayed an important and unforgettable part of history. I felt much more responsibility for this drama, and aside from my character, this experience allowed me to deeply recognize the dignity of being human. I thank all the viewers who gave 'Nokdu Flower' lots of love, and I will see you again with an another great production."

Just in case someone hasn't watched the last episode, please ignore and skip my post because it is regarding Yi Hyun.
First thing first, the drama increased my admiration for the three lead's acting. To be very honest, everyone acted really well in the drama (except for the king...which I found him overdramatic in some parts).
As for the ending...
What Yi Hyun did was unforgettable, but he is a sad character. In someway, he is similar to Jeon Bongjun. As Yi Hyuk mentioned, he always thought Jeon Bongjun was a violent person who fought for reform, yet Yi Hyun had piles of dead body at his feet as he sought for "civilization." Both of them want the best for their nation, and both seek to change the current system. No doubt, Yi Hyuk looked up to Jeon Bongjun, but unlike his brother, Yi Kang, he thought his method of reform was the best way, only to discover that he had been fooled (by himself and by Japan) all the time.
And at the end, he sought for death...in fact, he had been seeking death for a long time. I think that is one of the reason why he picked up the man (the one he tortured at the beginning, the one he saved and allowed the man to beat up a Japanese soldier) to be his assistant. When the man begged Yi Hyuk to kill him because he was too much of a coward to kill himself, Yi Hyuk sparred him because that man "remembered the old Yi Hyuk" but another reason why Yi Hyuk sparred him could be that he see himself in that man's shadow. He was waiting for someone to kill him...that's why he sat there when Beo Deul shot at him.
He want to, desperately, turned back to Yi Hyuk. He seek Jeon Bongjun's advice, only to receive a silent ultimatum. His dad was still ruthless and distorted as he had been, so he was not a person Yi Hyuk could find salvation. He loved his mom, but she was primarily under his father's influence. He hoped that Myung Shim would love him like he was in the past, but she had given up on him even though she had promised to wait for "Yi Hyuk" to come back. To the end, the only person who loved and saw him as who he really is, was Yi Kang. The one who really waited for him, even in the afterlife, was his only half brother....and the one who really understand him was his half-brother. He took his life , accepting what his brother had suggested, because he had nothing to live for...and the only solace he could find was the fact that his brother would once again called him "brother" again in the afterlife.
None the less, Jo Jung Seok, Yi Kang, drew me to this drama, and it stayed with him....but the one who gave me a lasting impression was Jeon Bongjun, Choi Moo-Sung's character.
Two last episode really heartfelt, how far we are humans sought our humanity in the world full of discrimination and lost of identity , the pain of seeing our fellow sacrifice their lives to liberate themselves as equals mans who had same options to rule and to be ruled nevertheless always there's who's lost identity,
Swayed by their principles or by theirs own greed but at the end their heart knew the truth eventually source up.
Ones will never dies is when the ideas is become ideal to many people there always person who holds and spread it.
Who could judge wich more precious civilization but put you in to slave of other idea.
Or liberate yourself to founding civilization within your identity and culture, we're humans bound to be free from what enslaved us.
Good patriotism drama

The all-new Jetta offers plenty of new features and advances for the 2019 model year available from the base S Trim all the way up to the elite SEL Premium model. But which trim level of the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta is right for you and your family? In this 2019 Volkswagen Jetta trim comparison from the New Volkswagen of Topeka we are going to compare some highlights of all five 2019 Jetta models.
Whether you choose the S, SE, R-Line, SEL, or SEL Premium trim of the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta, you will enjoy a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine rated for 147 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. With an EPA mileage rating of up to 30 mpg in city driving and 40 mpg on the highway, the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta can offer confident commuting and great features no matter the model.
LED lighting comes standard on the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta S trim, along with 16-inch wheels, cloth seating, the VW Car-Net App-Connect system, a 6.5-inch touchscreen, and a rearview camera. A Driver Assistance package with Autonomous Emergency Braking and Blind Spot Monitoring is available as an extra.
An eight-speed automatic transmission comes standard on this model along with a tilt-and-slide panoramic sunroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, standard driver assistance features, and a leather-wrapped multi-function steering wheel. Push button start and keyless access also come standard.
Unique badging (including black grille accents, black side mirrors, and a rear sport valance) make the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta R-Line stand out. This model also offers 17-inch Trenton alloy wheels, two-tone leatherette upholstery, fog lights, and heated front seats. This model also comes standard with automatic braking.
The 2019 Volkswagen Jetta SEL model is one of the elite trim options of this new sedan. This model offers top features like Adaptive Cruise Control, a Lane Keeping System, and High Beam Control. The interior of the SEL trim also comes with plentiful premium features. This is the first trim level that offers 10-color customizable interior ambient lighting and a BeatsAudio sound system. It also comes with an eight-inch touchscreen system with voice controls.
The top-of-the-line 2019 Volkswagen Jetta SEL Premium model comes with key features from other trims (like a panoramic sunroof, foglights, and an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with app connectivity) but adds many advantages of its own. Rain-sensing wipers, 17-inch Tornado Metallic alloy wheels, the Volkswagen Digital Cockpit, heated and ventilated front seats and leather upholstery set this model apart from other driving options.


I was at the dollar store with my kids. My 13-year-old son Ethan came up to me as I was looking for the right Valentine's Day card for my husband. I showed him a few choices. He shook his head. One was too sappy, another one boring. The next was too pink.
We both agreed on a funny card with a big dog on it.
I smile when I think back on that moment because it included Ethan in something rather mundane (choosing a card) yet it was also special. He was getting a glimpse into the love life of his mother and father.
What will my son learn about marriage from watching us all these years? Will he think marriage is something to dream about or something to dread?
Learn biblical principles for a closer, stronger family with our online video course, THE HEART OF FAMILY. Sign up today!
Choose your spouse wisely. This is the big one. I want my son to choose a woman who loves God and shares common values. I want him to marry his best friend, someone he cannot live without. Physical attraction will light the fire, but she must be equally beautiful on the inside. For my son, if she skis, mountain bikes, and plays jazz piano, bonus points. But common interests aren't the main ingredients of a happy marriage.
Worship God in your marriage. I want Ethan to understand his marriage will be closely connected to his relationship with God. The closer you are to Christ, the more you have to give in your marriage. Obeying the commandments of "Husbands love…" and "Wives submit…" can be tough and that's why we are dependent on the Holy Spirit.
Keep being affectionate towards each other. It's totally natural to shower your sweetheart with affection when you are dating and the weeks after marriage. But a few months or years after "I do," is the affection still there? Your heart won't beat like crazy every time you see your spouse. But keep acting like you did when you were dating. Keep opening doors. Keep holding hands. Keep snuggling on the couch and listening to one another. Plan date nights. Kiss often. Practice the first things that made you fall in love in the first place.
Don't forget to have fun. Find activities you enjoy doing together through the different stages of life. It may be a challenge – I know there are many things my athletic husband does I simply cannot! My son has seen me attempt many things like skiing, rollerblading, ice skating, camping, and even martial arts to be together in the family fun. Some things I like, others I don't, but I keep trying (and applying ice to my injuries).
Guess what? As I consider this advice to my son about marriage, I am speaking to myself.
What's one thing I can do today to make my spouse happy?
How can I press closer to Christ so I can be more like Him in my marriage?
How can I show my spouse affection and pursue him physically?
What's something fun we can put on the calendar?
As we model a happy marriage to our children, we give them something worth dreaming about. It's not about having a perfect marriage. It's about having a marriage on purpose. Don't leave things to chance. Leave a legacy to your children of a happy marriage built on commitment and Christ (and lots of fun).
Build a healthier relationship with your children by signing up for our online video course taught by Kirk and Chelsea Cameron.

One Tree Hill, The Gem of WB
One Tree Hill is an epic television drama that broadcasts the lives of two half brothers who are the same age but have separate mothers. Through out the series' almost decade-long run, viewers are taken through the journey of their high school experience, complicated love lives, and the characters' love for basketball.
The two brothers are Nathan, played by James Lafferty, and Lucas Scott, played by Chad Michael Murray. Both share the same love for the game of basketball. The viewer grows along with Lucas, Nathan, and the rest of the Tree Hill High students. Some characters come and go, but many still stay true: Lucas, Nathan, Brooke Davis, Haley James, and Peyton Sawyer.
The two brothers start to acknowledge each other when Lucas joins the Ravens basketball team and plays alongside Nathan. Although they share the same father, they have different mothers and never had a relationship with each other. In fact, they despise each other, which is only the beginning of this saga.
The first episode is where most viewers make their judgments on if a television show is worth their time. In One Tree Hill's first episode, the show introduces broken relationships and long-lasting characters that grow through the course of the series
In addition, One Tree Hill sends a very inspiring message: despite all odds, dreams are achievable. This is shown by Lucas and Nathan when they find their true loves and basketball. Like Lucas once said, "Believe that dreams come true everyday, because they do." It has been the dream of thousands to find a source of inspiration that One Tree Hill has provided them for years.
On top of the positive message the series delivers, the characters have relatable messages for the viewers. Whether it is a poor relationship with their parents, not fitting in, or early heartbreak, One Tree Hill is always there to let the viewer know that no matter what the trouble is, with good friends, those pains eventually go away.
Despite the show's greatness, it has some flaws. It has many soap opera features. For example, the characters constantly run into problems. Also, the writers love to leave viewers with cliffhangers. Luckily, the show is now on Netflix, so viewers don't have to wait for a new episode or season to come out.
The final words in this tale are ones that many "Tree Hillers" still hold on to today, " It's the oldest story in the world. One day you're 17 and planning for someday. And then quietly and without noticing, someday is today. And then someday is yesterday. And this is your life."
Through all nine seasons of the characters trying to find themselves, complicated love lives, and the game of basketball, One Tree Hill is the show to watch.

Denim does NOT fix 1020 freezing issues!
I hsve updated my O2 germany lumia 1020 to Denim and the freezing / rebooting while in sleep mode issue is NOT fixed! So, MS where is the fix you have told us about?
Denim has zero firmware changes for older phones like the 1020.
My 1020 has tanked since 8.1. But ky girlfriends 928 runs super smooth with 8.1. I don't get it.
Weird, my wife's 1020 runs perfect on wp8.1. Is yours a us varient?
Ya, my Lumia 520 is slow too. Both of them lag horribly when scrolling the start screen. As you scroll, the tiles are blank and it takes several seconds for the content/icons to appear.
But my GFs 928 is fine. I may upgrade my 920 to 8.1 and see if it has same issues or is fine.
Hi, no it is from O2 Germany and these issues began after I have updated to 8.1. Today froze while in sleep mode and it was not even charging, just by sitting there. I am starting to feel fed up by Microsoft's crap!
I will wait 'till January and if no fix is released I might consider getting a newer model or switch platform. I do not trust Microsoft anymore!
How to fix nav bar on lock screen or is this an ocd of mine?
Does the Nokia Lumia 1520 support otg pen drive?
Is the heating issue on the Surface Pro 3 fixed?
Why is my Lumia 2520 getting the error windows could not complete instalation?

Sony: The Future Of Gaming
Memo to Sony: KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON.
Oh, sure, back at E3, when you told everyone that what gamers really wanted was a $600 set-top box that could replace a home computer*, people said you were "out of touch". Don't listen to those people.
You're not going to shed a reputation for being out of touch by listening to people. People make that mistake all the time. But you're SONY, goddammit. For over ten years, you've known what gamers wanted. Battle Arena Tohshinden! Syphon Filter! Intelligent Cube!
And now, you know what gamers REALLY want. Lesbionic racial strife! That's been obvious since Ms. Pac-Man chomped on Sue. Those people yelling at you, making you take down your billboards in the Netherlands just because they show a white woman dressed all in white manhandling a black woman dressed all in black? They're just haters.
I mean, what better way to show the true essence of the Playstation Portable? A high-tech multimedia device capable of being molded from not one, but TWO different colors of plastic? If that doesn't call for two slightly butch women engaged in mutually assured ethnic cleansing, I don't know what does. It's not Sony's fault that ebony and ivory cannot live together in perfect harmony. Sony's just advertising what they see on the streets. Of the Netherlands.
But maybe you want your PSP to do more than either absorb or reflect all the myriad frequencies of light that hit it. Maybe you want it to play movies, too? Perhaps, like me, you've noticed it's become increasingly difficult to complete your collection of UMD movies.
The UMD movie was another of Sony's revolutionary ideas. As a gamer, they correctly intuited that what I wanted more than anything else was to pay five dollars extra for low-res versions of DVDs without extra features. But shortsighted retailers like Target have stopped carrying the things. I would be completely screwed were it not for Sony's R&D department, in touch with the modern gamer and what they want.
All I have to do is spend $60 on a one-gig memory stick, or $100 on a two-gig stick. From Sony. And if I do that, Sony will include a DVD with the four most-wanted movies by gamers across the world: S.W.A.T.; The Grudge; XXX: State of the Union; and Hitch. Fucking HITCH! Do you know how many times I've sat on the bus, wishing there were some way Will Smith could teach me about relationships while suffering through his own? I don't. I lost count after 173.
The DVD can be put in your computer, and with a special activation code, you can take one of those four movies and convert it for viewing on your PSP. Sure, it's in even lower resolution than the UMDs were. And sure, if you get sick of watching Hitch and decide you need some special weapons and tactics in your life, you'll have to go buy another memory stick. But that's no more complicated than other successful media formats throughout the ages, like the wax cylinder, or the carrier pigeon.
So do not despair, Sony. Stick to your guns. And in a year or two, when we're all applying our unique transaction keys to downconvert "Little Man" to a portable viewing format so that we can watch it while waiting in line for the midnight release of Heavenly Sword 2, we can point at those poor, visionless haters and laugh.
*Having just spent $600 on a box to replace my home computer, the irony is palpable, yet simultaneousy irrelevant.

After entering the history program at KU in 2007, Dusty subsequently completed his master's degree in history in 2010 and his PhD comprehensive examination (with honors) in 2012. Dusty is currently engaged in writing his dissertation. Titled "Tradition Reinvented: The Rationalization of Kanpō Medicine in Twentieth Century Japan," Dusty's dissertation seeks to examine how early twentieth century Japanese physicians used various Western biomedical theories to re-conceptualize traditional Sino-Japanese medicine within the bounds of "modernity" and "science" in order to promote its consumption within a skeptical Japanese society.
Dusty's research interests include modern Japanese/Chinese history (19th–21st centuries), public health, traditional Chinese medicine, imperialism, and cross–cultural perceptions.

ITMA 2019 Barcelona :gained new record with biggest number of exhibitors.
The record number of exhibitors at ITMA 2019 – totaling 1,717 from 45 countries – has set a new milestone of the ITMA history.
Since its launch in 1951, ITMA has enjoyed wide industry recognition as the world's largest textile and garment technology exhibition. This year's exhibition in Barcelona sees its reputation solidify further with the largest gathering of exhibitors in its history.
"The global economy is still facing challenges, accentuated by trade tensions and disruption," said Fritz P. Mayer, president of the European Committee of Textile Machinery Manufacturers (CEMATEX). "However, textile being the world's oldest manufacturing industry has demonstrated its resilience over the years.
"This is also the spirit of our exhibitors who continually innovate and launch new technologies and solutions," he continued. "We are glad that ITMA has been providing a reputable platform for textile machinery manufacturers to market their innovations. This has enabled us to record the largest number of exhibitors in ITMA's history."
The exhibits are showcased over 114,500 square meters of net exhibit space, a 9% increase over the previous edition in 2015. ITMA 2019 attracted visitorship of over 105,000 from 137 countries. The top 5 countries where visitors came from were Spain (11%), Italy (10%), India (8%), Turkey and Germany (7%). They were followed by France, the USA, Portugal, Brazil, Pakistan, China and the UK.The record number of exhibitors totaling 1,717 from 45 countries has set a new milestone.
Reflecting the international composition of the participants, the largest number of exhibitors are from Italy (364 exhibitors), China (276 exhibitors), Germany (222 exhibitors), India (169 exhibitors) and Turkey (164 exhibitors).
CEMATEX countries continue to occupy the largest exhibit space, taking up 65% of the total net exhibit space. Italy booked 26% of the space, followed by Germany which booked 18%. The top non-CEMATEX countries are: Turkey with 9%, China with 8%, and India with 5% of the space booked.
At ITMA 2019 the top 5 sectors arrived : finishing (325 exhibitors), spinning (281 exhibitors), weaving (182 exhibitors), printing (157 exhibitors), knitting (136 exhibitors).
Many new technologies were launched, ranging from 3D weaving and knitting to hi-tech nonwovens processes, sustainable chemicals and state-of-the-art garment-making technologies, and wide range of software-powered automation solutions.
Garment making, which has been impacted by digitalization and fast fashion, is also making a bigger impact at ITMA.
"We are extremely pleased to bring garment technology back in focus at ITMA," Mayer said. "While ITMA has been traditionally strong in textile making technologies, we are glad that we are able to present garment making solutions from some of the world's most renowned technology providers. There is an increase of 27% in the number of exhibitors as compared with ITMA 2015."

Q: Behavior of login shell vs. Linux, 'sh -c' I have a seemingly-valid command that works fine on Linux boxes but fails on OSX, and I would like to know why.
sudo su - validusername sh -c 'whoami'

On Linux, this will echo 'validusername' on the console.  OSX however, shows an error:
/bin/sh: /bin/sh: cannot execute binary file

Is this an OSX particularity?  Or is it due to the fact that OSX uses bash 3.2, while our linux boxes are on bash 4.x?
EDIT: I figured out a workaround quickly (sudo -u), I am mainly interested in learning why this happened.  Thanks!

A: try
sudo -su validusername sh -c 'whoami'

A: or:
sudo su - username -c whoami

The su man page says

 su [-] [-c class] [-flms] [login [args]]

...
If the optional args are provided on the command line, they are passed to
       the login shell of the target login.  Note that all command line argu-
       ments before the target login name are processed by su itself, everything
       after the target login name gets passed to the login shell.

A: OK, to start with you don't need both 'su' and 'sudo' - just the 'su' will do. I also doubt under Linux that you have the 'sh' since the effect of the '-' is to run a login shell but what on earth the poor shell is attempting in your command with both is anybody's guess.
I live in a world where we remove sudo from our Linux boxes so I can't check if your command actually works.
Under both OS X and Linux the command su - username -c 'whoami' will echo username.
There are some differences between the 'su' and 'sudo' found on Linux and OS X but they are due to the differences between our laid back, West Coast, BSD version of Unix and the uptight, East Coast, AT&T derived Gnu utilities used in the average Linux distro rather than bash versions since neither is a bash builtin.


Home Blockchain Stock Review Novogratz Halts Hedge Fund, Says Bitcoin May Drop to $8,000 (Bloomberg).
"We didn't like market conditions and we wanted to re-evaluate what we're doing," Novogratz said Friday in a phone interview. "I look pretty smart pressing the pause button right now.
Novogratz, 53, said he told potential investors last week that he changed his mind, two days before his Galaxy Digital Assets Fund was due to start on Dec. 15. Novogratz cited a growing number of hurdles, including the prospect of buying bitcoin or ether for clients, while simultaneously selling crypto investments in his personal account.
Bitcoin has slumped as much as 42 percent in the past four days, the biggest decline over such a span since 2013. On Friday it dropped to as low as $10,776, before rebounding to $13,268 at 2:27 p.m. in New York. It last traded below $10,000 on Dec. 1, when the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission agreed to allow trading in bitcoin futures. Other cryptocurrencies including ethereum and litecoin also tumbled.
Novogratz said he's been selling cryptocurrencies in his personal account as bitcoin passed $13,000, $16,000 and $17,000 and as ether topped $600, $700 and $800. Novogratz said he lost money today as prices plunged but has profited for the month so far.

Now, despite the title of the post, I KNOW you're supposed to eat to live and not live to eat. At least that's what "they" say. But, let's face it, sometimes something good to eat is the little thing that will help us get through an otherwise blah day.
I'm an emotional overeater--i.e., if I am having an emotion, any emotion, I want to eat. I'm working on this, but I've had to find some alternatives to coax myself away from what I really want to binge on. Like, oh, off the top of my head, a half gallon of peanut butter chocolate ice cream (yes, it's been done).
1.) Vitatop by Vitalicious in Deep Chocolate. I don't buy these all the time because they're rather on the pricey side (a box of 4 at Harris Teeter is somewhere in the neighborhood of $4.50 or more), but they're good. They're 100 calories, chocolatey, cakey, and don't taste fake like some lower calorie sweet treats. I just had one of these. These have the ability to quelch a passing "I want a muffin/chocolate cake" craving. Not at your store. No worries--available online here or at 1-877-VITA-877.
2.) No Sugar Added Fudgsicle. Again, these don't taste fake, and I have successfully averted many-a ice cream craving on the way home from work by promising myself one or two of these. That's the fantastic thing: at 40 calories, if you eat 4, you're still ahead of the game--not so with 4 servings of ice cream. More info here.
3.) When the weather is too cold for Fudgsicles, I turn to No Sugar Added Hot Cocoa. Nothing says "cozy" like a cup of hot cocoa. And, at 60 calories per serving, you won't need to shovel too much snow to work it off (oh to be doing that in this 90 degree heat!).
5.) For a hankering for crunchy potato chips...Barbeque Soy Crisps. Shown are Genisoy, but I am partial to Whole Foods 365. Trader Joes also does a version, a bit cheaper I think, but I don't like them as much. Genisoy is good, as is Glenny's. Each brand has its merits. I am always sure to buy the smallest bag possible, though, despite the greater expense because I KNOW I'll eat the whole thing.
There you have it. Five treats you won't regret tomorrow! What are some of your faves?
Val, I KNOW! (I know Caps are necessary too...) It should be said that I've only ever had the chocolate...so I have no idea what the others are like!

Steering the Winds of Change: A Summit on Leadership in Business, Academia, the Military, and Government
59 Companies Leading the Way in Hiring Talent with Disabilities Are Honored
National Organization on Disability Event also Featured Actors and Disability Advocates Danny Woodburn (Seinfeld) and Robert David Hall (CSI: Crime Scene Investigation)
NEW YORK (September 26, 2019) – More than 200 diversity and inclusion leaders from companies around the country gathered at the National Organization on Disability's (NOD) Annual Forum and Dinner, entitled Shifting the Talent Paradigm: Inclusive Culture for a Modern Workforce. Sponsored by Lead Partners PwC and Spectrum, the all-day forum explored the best change management tactics that corporate leaders can deploy to create a more diverse and inclusive culture. Senior managers heard from executives and experts on the most effect tools and tactics to create an inclusive culture, as well as the leadership skills and personal attributes needed to lead a culture change.
Later in the evening, an awards dinner was held featuring actors and disability advocates Danny Woodburn (Seinfeld) and Robert David Hall (CSI: Crime Scene Investigation). Civic and business leaders also joined in the celebration, including Gov. Tom Ridge, first Secretary of Homeland Security and NOD Chairman, and DiversityInc's Chairman and Founder Luke Visconti, who serves as the NOD Vice Chairman.
"Events such as this one hosted by the National Organization on Disability are critical because the subject of diversity and inclusion is often exclusive of people with disabilities," said Woodburn, who serves as co-vice chair of the SAG-AFTRA People with Disabilities Committee. "This is particularly personal for me and my colleagues in Hollywood, because although people with disabilities make up more than 20 percent of our population, they are still significantly under-represented on television and film. Compounding the problem is the fact that even when characters with disabilities are featured on the small screen, they are far more too often played by actors without disabilities. This creates a 98% unemployment rate in my business, well above the national average of 67% for people with disabilities."
"Danny and I have worked together for years to support opportunities for actors with disabilities, like us," said Hall, a longtime NOD board member. "So we are privileged to attend events like this one that recognizes employers who not only embrace hiring people with disabilities, they see it as fundamental to their success. It's a message we need to amplify in Hollywood."
Starting a new tradition, NOD honored two individuals with special awards. The Kaitlin A. Geraghty Memorial Prize was given to Deanna Ferrante, a rising student in the University of Massachusetts-Amherst Class of 2020. Named in honor of the late NOD intern who was much admired and missed, this award is bestowed to an up-and-coming disability advocate who shares Kaitlin's passion for working towards the full inclusion of people with disabilities.
Darren Walker, President of the Ford Foundation, was the inaugural honoree of the Alan A. Reich Award, for enshrining disability inclusion into all of the organization's operations—from its building accessibility to its grant making. Given to an established leader who is advancing disability rights, this award is named in honor of NOD's founder, who helped spark a movement to ensure people with disabilities were represented equally in all aspects of life.
Then, 59 organizations were honored as the 2019 NOD Leading Disability Employers™ for their exemplary hiring and employment practices for people with disabilities. Now in its fifth year, the NOD Leading Disability Employer Seal is awarded to the top performers on NOD's Disability Employment Tracker™, a free and confidential assessment that benchmarks companies' disability inclusion programs.
"These winning organizations understand that by harnessing the talents of people with disabilities, they reap the benefits of a more diverse and more productive workforce," said NOD Chairman Governor Tom Ridge. "The preeminent challenge before us is to ensure that people with disabilities enjoy full opportunity for employment, enterprise and earnings, and that employers know how to put their talents to work. These 59 organizations certainly have demonstrated they are doing just that, and we applaud their leadership and thank them for their commitment to hiring people with disabilities."
About the Leading Disability Employer Seal™ + Disability Employment Tracker
To see current and past winners of the NOD Leading Disability Employer seal, visit www.NOD.org/seal.
To be considered for the 2020 NOD Leading Disability Employer seal, companies must complete the free and confidential Disability Employment Tracker assessment during the qualifying window.

Evangeline Lilly's career bigger than ever after deciding not to retire from acting
Evangeline Lilly has been in acting for many years now
She almost decided to turn her back on acting and retire
Evangeline's career is now bigger than ever
When it comes to making a successful career for yourself in Hollywood, talent is not enough, as you also need the right role in the right project to get you that recognition that you really deserve. A little bit of luck can go a long way in Hollywood and every star who has ever made a name for themselves in the acting industry will have had their fair share of it.
Evangeline Lilly played Kate in Lost
Actress Evangeline Lilly was working in the acting industry for a few years before she landed the role of Kate in the hit television series Lost. The success of Lost catapulted Evangeline into Hollywood superstardom and she soon became a household name, with plenty of new offers coming her way.
Evangeline Lilly has gone on to have a very successful acting career since Lost came to an end, but the actress was considering turning her back on the industry and retiring from acting. Fortunately though, Peter Jackson decided to offer her the role of Tauriel in the movie The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, an offer that she really could not refuse.

A Dark Night for the Right to Housing Movement
After a string of high-profile successes in places as geographically distant as Philadelphia and the East Bay Area, an ugly episode in L.A. County the day before Thanksgiving dealt a brutal setback to the burgeoning right to housing movement.
December 1, 2020, 9am PST | James Brasuell | @CasualBrasuell
Dominique Walker, a member of Moms 4 Housing in Oakland, and newly elected member of the Berkeley Rent Board, speaks at a press conference in January 2020.
"California Highway Patrol officers detained several people during a tense Thanksgiving eve standoff after activists occupied a number of empty El Sereno homes owned by Caltrans," reports Elina Shatkin.
Caltrans has long been a source of local consternation because of its ownership of the vacant properties—the state's department of transportation bought the houses six decades ago as part of an aborted plan to extend Interstate 710 to Interstate 210 to the north.
The seeds of this confrontation were planted in March, when a group called Reclaiming Our Homes moved homeless protestors into 11 of the 163 vacant homes owned by Caltrans in the shadow of the failed freeway project.
Because the properties are owned by the state, it was state police officers with the California Highway Patrol (CHP) that showed up the night before Thanksgiving. According to the article by Shatkin, the protestors did not have the support of many neighbors living nearby.
Despite the police action, which is documented in the article with photography by Brian Feinzimer, Reclaiming Our Homes had recently reached an agreement with the city of Los Angeles and Caltrans to move into some f the vacant homes legally, reports Shatkin.
The houses, which had previously been vacant, will be leased to the Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles for up to three years. During that time, people such as "reclaimer" Marta Escudero, who spent more than a year and a half couch-surfing before occupying one of the El Sereno properties with her two daughters, will be allowed to live in the homes while they look for a more permanent living situation.
Reclaiming Our Homes is part of a larger movement for homeless people to occupy vacant public properties that has gained steam and won political successes this year. In Philadelphia, the city announced plans to turn vacant homes over to a community land trust in October. In the East Bay Area, to founders of the Moms 4 Housing organization that took the same actions in vacant homes in Oakland, were elected to public office in November.

Tropical storm Nicole strengthening as it nears Bahamas
CMC – A strengthening subtropical storm Nicole is strengthening on Tuesday as it makes it way towards the northwestern Bahamas with maximum sustained winds of 50 miles per hour (mph).
"What I want to say to all Bahamians and residents, but particularly those in the north and central Bahamas is that we must take the threat of Hurricane Nicole seriously," Acting Prime Minister Chester Cooper said in a live address from the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA).
"I cannot stress enough that it is better to make preparations and not need them than to take no precautions and regret it," he warned, urging residents in low lying areas and those in compromised structures to evacuate.
"Abaco and Grand Bahama are projected to take a direct hit from Hurricane Nicole. Bimini and Berry Islands are also in the path of the storm. Residents of those islands should take every precaution to secure themselves and their property immediately."
Cooper said schools and government offices in the mentioned islands will be closed until the all clear is given. Airports and seaports on the affected islands are also expected to close.
"Nicole is expected to come when seas are already at a high tide, increasing the chance of flooding. We are strongly urging everyone in low lying areas, particularly in east and west Grand Bahama and Abaco to move further inland. We are asking everyone living in domes, trailers and structures on Abaco and Grand Bahama in particular that are not up to code to make immediate plans to evacuate, to move to a hurricane shelter or another safe place," Cooper said.
The NHC said that the storm is located about 385 miles east north east of the northwestern Bahamas and a hurricane watch is in effect for the Abacos, Berry Islands, Bimini, and Grand Bahama Island in the northwestern Bahamas, while a tropical storm warning remains in effect for Andros Island, New Providence, and Eleuthera in the northwestern Bahamas
Rotary Clubs Of Antigua Rotary Youth Leadership Awards Program
"On the forecast track, the center of Nicole will approach the northwestern Bahamas today and tonight, move near or over those islands on Wednesday, and approach the east coast of Florida Wednesday night," the NHC said, adding that Nicole's center is then expected to move across central and northern Florida into southern Georgia Thursday and Thursday night.
The storm has maximum sustained winds of near 50 mph with higher gusts and the NHC said "Nicole is expected to make a transition to a tropical storm later today and begin strengthening, and it is forecast to be near or at hurricane strength by Wednesday and Wednesday night while it is moving near the northwestern Bahamas and approaching the east coast of Florida".


Finally, 2019 has come and a new year lies ahead. With this in mind, it might be time to update your 401(k) contributions. When you save up money during your time as an employee, you get to have some extra cash and a more comfortable life as a senior. This gives you a much more satisfying life in retirement because you can avoid future financial struggles, especially since Social Security is just not enough anymore.
There are many Americans who are unaware of this process and probably lack financial literacy overall, but it's never too late or too early to get a grip on your finances. Here are three simple ways to be smart with your 401(k) in 2019.
There are many ways you could go about doing this, but it's important you create a proper plan with long-term goals. This keeps you organized and allows you to constantly be aware of your finances. All you need to do is talk to your company if you are eligible to opt in. If you work for yourself or if your job does not offer a 401(k) plan, you might want to consider an IRA or individual retirement account.
2. Perpetuate your contributions toward the fund.
After you have opened an account, you can force yourself to stay on track with your goals by setting up a regular reduction whenever you get a paycheck. By doing this, you can avoid the pain of thinking about making the reduction, and the entire process is going to be much easier on you. Setting aside 5-10% of your salary is a recommended amount to start with.
Over time, you are probably going to be receiving raises and bonuses, so make sure to contribute more as this happens. In fact, there are 401(k) plans with a feature that can automatically increase your savings rate without any extra actions from your part, so make sure you look into this as well.
3. Be wise when investing.
This can be difficult at times when you are not sure what exactly to do with the money. You should make sure that your savings are being invested correctly. One way this could be accomplished is by investing in the stock market.
Another great way is to consider real estate investing with DCT Capital Fund. They offer an exciting and organized plan called the DCT Freedom Plan, which creates wealth for those who seek financial freedom.
Furthermore, their team has over six decades' worth of experience in brokerage, investing, and real estate development. They are trustworthy and ensure that their strategies minimize investment risks. Investment in real estate is an effective way to build wealth over time when done correctly and can even result in cash flow for retirement. If you want to be smart about your investments, be sure to contact DCT Capital Fund today to get started.


Free Video Cutter is a simple application which enables unwanted sections of a video to be removed, without any loss of video quality.
Free Video Cutter looks great, thanks to an irregular, hand drawn-like window. It's more like something you'd expect on a tablet than your desktop.
It's also very simple. Drag and drop (or browse to) a video to open it; drag sliders to mark the start and end points of the video scene you need; click Save to save it.
Sometimes this simplicity goes too far. When you open a video it starts playing immediately, and there's no obvious Play/ Pause button to stop it; you have to toggle playback by clicking in the preview area.
There's no keyboard support for nudging the cut points by frame, unfortunately - you can only drag with the mouse, or enter a time code in whole seconds.
The other issue is you can only save the marked area. That's fine if you want to extract the 1:45-2:37 second from a 5-minute clip, but no use if you'd like to save everything but that segment, or need to remove multiple scenes from a single movie.
Free Video Cutter looks good, is adware-free and easy to use, but can only handle the most basic of video trimming tasks.


Having recently done some News Reading shifts in a nod to my old job as a BBC Broadcast Journalist, i noticed how many people didn't move from their desks for hours on end and struggled to maintain their posture, which got me thinking about some simple exercises all office workers could benefit from.
Firstly, we know all know that sitting in static positions is not great for us and that in theory we should move often throughout the day. Although, what we know we should do and what we actually do are often two very different things, especially when we get caught up in our job.
However, the reason us Pilates instructors are always telling us to take those screen and desk breaks every 20 minutes, even for only 30 seconds is because when we sit for long periods of time our joints stiffen up in the spine, all the way from the neck, down through the ribcage and into the low back and pelvis. All the joints in the legs can stiffen up – hips, knees, ankles. Shoulders stiffen due to the muscles surrounding the shoulder being under tension as you use your mouse and type. Think of the feeling you get when standing up from your aeroplane seat after a long flight, it takes a moment to feel able to stretch up to your full height. Sitting at a desk is doing this to a degree every day.
Pilates takes your spinal joints and the joints in your arms and legs gently through their available motion and can help to counteract the problems encountered from sitting all day. Stiffened joints slowly start to release and improve joint range when doing Pilates. Core control improves and supports the joints. Joints are moved frequently into the range where they are stiff, they gradually ease out, creating more supple joints which move fluidly. Therefore, if you can attend just one class a week it will make an enormous difference to your body, to see class availability click here Tiptoe Pilates. However, if you can't attend a class, or in between your classes there are things you can do every day to help as well. Make every excuse to get up and stand or walk – to the photocopier, the water fountain, even when you answer a phone call and try to include the following exercises throughout your working day….
Sometimes simple is best and that is definitely the case with this simple but very effective exercise.
Sit or stand while putting as much space between your ears and shoulders – drawing your shoulder blades downwards. Then nod your chin down towards your chest as if you are trying to hold an orange between your chest and chin. You should feel a stretch through your shoulders and down your neck. Repeat the chin tilt several times without letting the shoulders or upper back curl forwards.
Sit or stand in a tall upright position – imaging you have a rubber band coming out of the crown of your head lifting you up – engage your core / tighten your corset, then begin to circle your shoulders upwards and forwards then upwards and backwards. Do each direction 5 times. As with all of these exercises the more slowly and controlled your moves are, the greater the benefit.
Sit or stand in a tall upright position – imaging you have a rubber band coming out of the crown of your head lifting you up – engage your core / tighten your corset, then hold your arms out in front of you with your palms facing up and your elbows tucked into your sides. Imagine, that you are holding two bowls of soup in your hands. Then begin to move your hands out away from your centre but still keep your elbows tucked into your sides and your shoulders down, you should feel the movement in between your shoulder blades, let the arms come back into your centre so they are parallel and our elbows are directly under your shoulder blades Repeat the move 6 times.
Sit or stand in a tall upright position – imaging you have a rubber band coming out of the crown of your head lifting you up – engage your core / tighten your corset, then keeping your leg still, flex your foot, moving only your ankle joint and circle your foot outwards. Complete a full circle trying to keep your foot and toes lengthened and free from tension.
Repeat the ankle circle 5 times in each direction and then move on to the other ankle. If standing to do this exercises you many want to hold onto the back of a chair or wall for support.
This exercise is perfect for getting air moving in and out of to your body and clearing the after-lunch fog. Try it whenever you feel foggy. Standing in a tall upright position – imaging you have a rubber band coming out of the crown of your head lifting you up – engage your core / tighten your corset and place your feet hips distance apart and feet parallel. Bend your legs slowly, keeping your knees over your toes but not beyond them and keeping your back straight. Arms can be casually at your sides.
At the bottom point pause, then slowly rise up to the balls of your feet, pausing again at the top.
Lower yourself back down onto your heels, resting before you repeat.
You can sit or stand to do this exercise but if not done before, it is best to start off seated. Either way start in a tall upright position – imaging you have a rubber band coming out of the crown of your head lifting you up – engage your core / tighten your corset. Then curl your pubic bone up towards your belly button then release back to your starting position. Do this 6-8 times several times a day.
If it's been awhile since you've exercised and you have health issues or concerns, it's a good idea to talk to your doctor before starting a new exercise routine.

JEWISH FOREIGN CITIZENS KILLED AT THE NINTH FORT
A new exposition opened
On April 7, a new exposition "Jewish Foreign Citizens killed at the Ninth Fort" was opened at Kaunas Ninth Fort Museum. Kaunas Ninth Fort was transformed into one of the largest mass massacre places in Lithuania occupied by Nazi Germany during WWII. In 1941-1944, people of Jewish origin were killed, who had been brought here from Lithuania and other European states: Austria, Czechoslovakia, Poland, the Soviet Union, France, and Germany. On November 25, 1941, almost three thousand Jews transferred from Berlin, Munich, and Frankfurt am Mein were shot to death in the Ninth Fort. The last known mass destruction of foreign citizens in the Ninth Fort was carried out in May, 1944. 878 Jews were deported from Drancy concentration camp in France to Eastern Europe, and most of them were forced to get off in Kaunas railway station, brought to the Ninth Fort and shot to death.
Representatives of the LR Office of the Government, the LR Ministry of Culture, and Kaunas city municipality as well as project partners and colleagues from other museums participated in the exposition opening. Visitors could visit the new exposition and other expositions related to the Holocaust free of charge from 6 pm to 9 pm.
The exposition is complemented by virtual content which can be explored using smart devices (smart phones or iPads). With the help of the devices, visitors can get introduced to the history of one family from Germany. In collaboration with Kaunas County Sign Language Interpreters' Centre, the exposition was adapted to visitors with hearing disability.
Henry Kellen, who emigrated to the USA in 1946, made a significant financial contribution to the establishment of the exposition. In 2014, he allocated a part of his inheritance to Kaunas Ninth Fort museum by his testament, in the memory of his parents, brother, sister, and all Kaunas city Jewish community, who perished during the Holocaust. The project was partly financed by the Council of Lithuanian Culture. Other partners are the following: the Faculty of Informatics of Vytautas Magnus University, the theatre of Vytautas Magnus University, and the Gymnasium of the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences.

Exclusive: Spicer arranged CIA, GOP intelligence push-back
Mike Allen, author of Axios AM
White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer personally picked up the phone and connected outside officials with reporters to try to discredit a New York Times article about Trump campaign aides' contact with Russia, then remained on the line for the brief conversations, Axios has learned. Ten key points:
Why it matters: The new details show how determined the West Wing was to rebut a front-page Times report on Feb. 15 that Trump campaign aides "had repeated contacts with senior Russian intelligence officials in the year before the election."
Who was involved: The officials reached by Spicer were CIA Director Mike Pompeo and Senate Select Intelligence Committee Chair Richard Burr (R-N.C), according to a senior administration official. The reporters were from The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal, the official said. Spicer provided reporters' phone numbers to House Intelligence Committee Chair Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), who offered to make the calls himself, according to the official: "He was in and out of an event."
When did this happen? On Feb. 15, when the two-column lead of the Times print edition, which Trump reads carefully, declared: "Trump Aides Had Contact With Russian Intelligence: U.S. Officials Tell of a Flurry of Phone Calls Intercepted Before the Election." An FBI official had volunteered privately to the White House that the story was "B.S." (but used the full word). When the FBI didn't immediately agree to tell that to the press, the White House tried to find other officials who would convey that idea to inquiring reporters.
What the White House was thinking: Spicer declined to comment. The official said Spicer didn't know at the time whether an investigation of Trumpworld contacts with Russia was underway, and was trying to make sure the connections were made before evening deadlines. "We'd been getting incoming all day," the official said. "Ironically, the White House was actually encouraging people with direct knowledge of the accuracy of the Times story to discuss it with other reporters."
The backdrop: Top White House officials tell us they're authentically confident that the Russia smoke won't lead to fire, and are even happy to have their opponents distracted by the issue. "For over six months, we have heard about these alleged contacts with Russia," the official said. "And yet, … with all the leaks have have come out, there's no 'there' there."
What was said on the calls: Pompeo and Burr told the journalists that the Times story wasn't true but provided no details, frustrating the competing reporters, according to the official: "Both of them said: All I can tell you is the story is not accurate."
What we don't know: Our sources weren't sure exactly how many calls were made, or which official talked to which reporter.
Why this is unusual: Intelligence officials from the Obama administration said it's rare for the CIA director to talk directly to a single journalist – that in the past, the director usually was held in reserve to talk to a publisher or executive editor in a case where a news organization was contemplating publishing something that could harm national security.
What we knew before: The Washington Post reported the pushback operation on Friday night under the headline: "Trump administration sought to enlist intelligence officials, key lawmakers to counter Russia stories."
The reaction: Some Democrats were already arguing that Russian involvement in the election should be investigated by a special prosecutor or outside, 9/11-style commission, rather than the congressional intelligence committees. George Little, a top CIA and Pentagon spokesman under President Obama, told us: "It's doubtful that Congress can conduct an objective and independent investigation into ties between this White House and the Russian government if it is collaborating so closely on media pushback with the White House press secretary."
