AUSTIN, Texas — The National Rifle Association announced Friday it has filed for bankruptcy protection and will seek to incorporate the nation's most politically influential gun-rights group in Texas instead of New York. The announcement made on the NRA's website comes months after New York's attorney general sued the organization over claims that top executives illegally diverted tens of millions of dollars for lavish personal trips, no-show contracts for associates and other questionable expenditures. The coronavirus pandemic has also upended the NRA, which last year laid off dozens of employees, cancelled its national convention and scuttled fundraising. The NRA's bankruptcy filing listed between $100 million and $500 million in assets and between $100 million and $500 million in liabilities. Still, the NRA claimed in announcing the move that the organization was "in its strongest financial condition in years." The NRA filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in federal court in Dallas and said it planned to incorporate in Texas, where records show it formed a limited liability corporation, Sea Girt LLC, in November 2020. Sea Girt LLC made a separate bankruptcy filing Friday, listing fewer than $100,000 in liabilities. "The move will enable long-term, sustainable growth and ensure the NRA's continued success as the nation's leading advocate for constitutional freedom – free from the toxic political environment of New York," the NRA said in a statement. A message seeking comment was left with a Dallas lawyer who made the bankruptcy filings on behalf of the NRA and Sea Girt LLC. Shortly after the announcement, New York Attorney General Letitia James said she would not allow the NRA to "evade accountability" or oversight. Her office's lawsuit last year highlighted misspending and self-dealing claims that have roiled the NRA and its longtime leader, Wayne LaPierre, in recent years — from hair and makeup for his wife to a $17 million post-employment contract for himself. "The NRA's claimed financial status has finally met its moral status: bankrupt," James said. The gun-rights group boasts about 5 million members. Though headquartered in Virginia, the NRA was chartered as a non-profit in New York in 1871 and is incorporated in the state. Going forward, the NRA said a committee will study opportunities to relocate segments of its operations to Texas and elsewhere. The NRA's largest creditor, owed $1.2 million, is Ackerman McQueen, which is the group's former advertising agency that was behind the now-shuttered NRA TV service. The NRA sued the Oklahoma-based company in 2019, alleging it was being overbilled and said in Friday's bankruptcy filing that the debt it is owed is disputed. The lawsuit is pending. A message seeking comment was left with Ackerman McQueen. In the New York lawsuit, Ackerman McQueen was accused of aiding lavish spending by LaPierre and other NRA executives by picking up the tab and then sending a lump sum bill to the organization for "out-of-pocket expenses." Court records also show more than $960,000 owed to Membership Marketing Partners LLC, a firm that lists its headquarters at the same address as the NRA. Another $200,000 is owed to Speedway Motorsports, the North Carolina-based company that owns and operates NASCAR tracks, according to the records. Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott quickly welcomed the news, tweeting: "Welcome to Texas — a state that safeguards the 2nd Amendment." The NRA said it has more than 400,000 members in Texas and plans to hold its annual convention in Houston later this year. ___ Sisak reported from New York.

President-elect Joe Biden announced Friday that he has chosen a pioneer in mapping the human genome — the so-called "book of life" — to be his chief science adviser and is elevating the top science job to a Cabinet position. Biden nominated Eric Lander, founding director of the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, who was the lead author of the first paper announcing the details of the human genome, as director of Office of Science and Technology Policy and adviser on science. He is the first life scientist to have that job. His predecessor is a meteorologist. Saying "science will always be at the forefront of my administration," Biden said he is boosting the science advisor post to Cabinet level, a first in White House history. The president-elect also said he is retaining National Institutes of Health Director Dr. Francis Collins, who worked with Lander on the human genome project, and named two prominent female scientists to co-chair the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology. Frances Arnold, a California Institute of Technology chemical engineer who won the 2018 Nobel Prize in chemistry, and MIT vice-president for research and geophysics professor Maria Zuber will co-chair the outside science advisory council. Lander held that position during Obama administration. Collins, in an email statement, called Lander "brilliant, visionary, exceptionally creative and highly effective in aspiring others." "I predict he will have a profound transformational effect on American science," Collins said. The job as director of science and technology policy requires Senate confirmation. Science organizations were also quick to praise Lander and the promotion of the science post. "Elevating (the science adviser) role to member in the President's Cabinet clearly signals the administration's intent to involve scientific expertise in every policy discussion," said Sudip Parikh, chief executive officer of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the world's largest general scientific society. Biden chose Princeton's Alondra Nelson, a social scientist who studies science, technology and social inequality, as deputy science policy chief. Lander, also a mathematician, is a professor of biology at both Harvard and MIT and his work has been cited nearly half a million times in scientific literature, one of most among scientists. He has won numerous science prizes, including a MacArthur "genius" fellowship and a Breakthrough Prize, and is one of Pope Francis' scientific advisors. Lander has said in talks that an opportunity to explain science is his "Achilles' heel": "I love teaching and more than that, I firmly believe that no matter what I do in my own scientific career, the most important impact that I could ever have on the world is going to be through my students."

Words are not enough…Everything from start to finish was flawless. …Our guests couldn't compliment him enough. He kept the the flow of the party going and people never left the dance floor- of all ages, all night! Dan, we thank you for being a part of our best day ever and for helping it be such a memorable weekend!
Dan did an amazing job as DJ for our wedding. He met with us multiple times beforehand to get to know us and the type of wedding we were envisioning. He provided the perfect uplighting for our event and even helped prepare our timeline to ensure we fit everything we wanted into the night. He kept the dance floor going all night long (guests even started dancing early!). If you are looking for the perfect DJ for your wedding or any other event, contact Dan he is truly the best around!
From the first time I spoke to Dan, I just knew I was going to end up picking him. Before I even hired him, he drove out to the venue to check it out and gave his opinions on where he could set up and how It would all go down… Also our meeting with him was out on a boat in Lake Lewisville I mean can that get any better for a meeting place? --Come the day of the wedding. Wow. He delivered. He was fun, entertaining and played the jams until we called it quits. He worked with the mood of the room and switched to what the crowd needed at that time. He's our man whenever we need another DJ party!
…The best find for our entire wedding. He went out of his way to make our reception the most memorable experience…reassured us that his ultimate goal was to make our reception as enjoyable as possible for us and our guests…We had more compliments on the music than anything else, and I am so glad we booked him. I would recommend him for any event!
…an amazing performer and took the time to really get to know [our] tastes. He's the epitome of professional and a breeze to work with.
Dan Quinn is AMAZING! I am still getting texts about the night and how Dan made the wedding so much fun! from the planning to the day of our wedding, Dan is professional yet treats you like family. I will use Dan again for any party i have in the future.
Words can not express our love for Dan Quinn. After meeting with another DJ and not feeling that it was the right fit, we were referred to Dan. He was prompt and professional in getting back with us and after a few short email/text conversations we decided to meet with him to seal the deal. Dan asked all sorts of questions ranging from our taste in music to how we met. It was clear from the start that he truly cared about our wedding day and us as a couple. Throughout the entire process, Dan was easily one of our most interactive vendors making the process effortless and stress-free. So much so in fact, that we hired him for our rehearsal dinner too! After a coffee meeting, lunch conversation and numerous FaceTime chats we finally nailed down all the important details for our wedding. Our rehearsal day came and Dan showed up early to set up, and once he was finished he helped our groomsmen set up our venue!!! What a guy!! From kids sneaking cupcakes to lending one of his boots for our "dollar dance" Dan was all over it! Our wedding weekend would not have been easy without Dan and we are so happy to have chosen such a wonderful DJ who made so much of the process a breeze!
Dan did a fantastic job at our wedding....and had people from 2 years of age to 60 years of age dancing the night away...you can rest assured that you don't have a thing to worry about.

Wisdom, principles and what works
J D Curtis
Business/Technical Writings
DQL roots
Posted by live4grace
A few years ago, I and 3 of my colleagues were drafted for a skunkworks effort, a throwaway project. Prove concept, save relics and go back to your regular job. We were interested in taking a quite functional REST API that was serviced by much more expensive technology and have it instead use native Domino services. We worked for a few months, over the Christmas holiday season, to show a cheaper way to give the API what it needed to function.
Part of that work involved data transformation. JSON is the format of all REST payloads so it was something we needed to supply and consume. Fortunately, for the most part we had some built-in libraries for that problem. But another part was query solving. And pulling together Domino services to satisfy the different query terms, it worked! We delivered a demonstrable, cheap prototype that inspired later work.
I have a long history in query processing going back my 1986 work on the mainframe database, Model 204®, now owned by Rocket Software. Its language, unceremoniously called "User Language" thrives by using 2 kinds of indexes and direct-data access in a way that was at least 40 years a precursor of Lucene and Hadoop sharding and map-reduce engines. Its Boolean processing is both stingy in avoiding I/O via partitioning and optimal in actual low-level operations using the machine-level instruction set to AND, OR and NOT bitmaps.
Later, the same technology was ported to the C language and Unix/Windows and I was part of an effort to support the full SQL 1992 language. It ported well, and specialized in the same area – high speed complex Boolean processing.
I also have a long history with SQL. I appreciate its strengths and its standardized publication of the very well defined relational algebra. But, working on Notes/Domino and diving deeply into the unique and valuable properties and capabilities of semi-structured and unstructured data, I have observed that the mapping to the SQL standard has always been a forced one and the success of each attempt varied at best. Enter NoSQL and its pundits. Indeed, enter the internet, where relational data plays a subsidiary role in the extensive unstructured data corpus.
Earlier this year (2018) we began working in earnest on providing NoSQL capabilities using Node.js to access Domino. We surveyed the landscape and found it populated by engines that had invested heavily in JSON as their native data format. Now, one of the most beautiful attributes of Domino has always been its malleability to support any number of front (and truth be told, back) ends. Node.js and JSON are no exception, though there is work to do. And they comprise what can only be described as a new standard.
The challenge for us in developing this new front end is to map and make valuable the data, processing and everything else possible in Domino in the new (well, new to Domino) format. Though I pledge to write a LOT about the work in such a way that seeks both input and advertises the incumbent power of the underlying engine, one early deliverable was quickly identified as a query capability.
Domino has had the underlying structures to support a general query facility for a long time. It is NOT a relational engine, which is a very good thing for a NoSQL database. And its deep underpinnings in unstructured, relationally denormalized data are formative in this work.
Now, much of the Domino engine was built in support of the Notes® client and its browser-based ancestors. That is not a liability; there is very rich and useful functionality at our collective disposal. But in Node.js and a query facility, the usage of the indexes and document data has a different footprint. For instance, a call to render 100 index entries at a time while scrolling an inbox or view is a small increment of that needed to find the results for 5000 entries across the same view. And we need to take care not to overwhelm one kind of processing with the other.
But using the indexes of the Notes Indexing Facility (NIF – the part of Domino that comprises views) was an obvious approach in the aforementioned skunkworks and it has born fruit in the current effort. Given the semantics of a database-level query, and the Domino data model, certain restrictions in view and view column design have been needed to have a working engine.
Set-based terms connected with Boolean primitives are the building blocks of any query engine. And in that skunkworks we also identified the Domino IDTable functions as the avenue of choice for Boolean processing. Their speed is tremendous. The one restriction they bring is that NoteIDs are not portable to other replicas, but that affected no early user story or requirement is worth living with for the performance benefit. IDTables are the currency of the query engine and as such, all data manipulation will be done via efficient post processing, at least for now.
We also needed to define the language. Early on we identified the existing engines in the document-based NoSQL world. They were MongoDB®, and CouchDB®, both well established and adopted in the field They each had JSON query interfaces that have users building Boolean trees. So that was the first interface we built, DQL 1.0 if you like. But when we looked at it, and read developer reviews of those interfaces, we concluded it was not way to go. That decision forged DQL in its current, shipping form. We didn't focus on the language so much as the engine. So we called it DGQF (Domino General Query Facility) because Domino is a collection of facilities working together. But the language acronym, DQL, won the day to the praises of many (If it's ok, we'll still call it DQF internally).
There isn't space here to go into all the variants and power of the language already. The formal documentation is undergoing its final editions and I will provide pointers once it's available. The approach we took is sound and will yield newfound power in the hands of application developers even into a new generation. We did our best – and will continue in that – to bring existing capabilities into innovative use and expose components such as IDTables that exist in views and folders, into the syntax. We think it hangs together pretty well.
So .. enjoy. And here's to Domino V11. You ain't seen nothin' yet!

Here's a startling statistic: If you don't replace a missing tooth, you run the risk of losing 20% of your adjacent teeth over the next four to eight years. Missing teeth add chewing and biting stress to the surrounding teeth. A complete smile is crucial for an attractive appearance and the ability to eat a normal, healthy diet. A complete smile also facilitates optimal oral and overall health.
At Grout Family Dentistry, we offer dental implant restorations to replace one tooth, a few teeth or an entire mouthful of teeth. Dental implants provide an amazingly natural and long-lasting alternative to traditional replacement teeth. In fact, teeth implants are the closest thing to natural teeth ever created, and they have the potential to last a lifetime with proper care.
Implant restorations are custom dental crowns secured by titanium or porcelain implants to match the appearance and function of natural teeth. Dental implants may be used to anchor a bridge or full denture, too. With teeth implants, you can eat what you want, throw away the dentures, enjoy normal chewing function and experience a whole new lease on life!
Drs. Ronald and Jeffrey Grout take an interdisciplinary approach to smile restoration with dental implants. They partner with leading specialists to ensure proper implant placement. Drs.

The Roca brothers pay homage to London during the BBVA Tour 2016
Ignacio Tena
The end of the first leg of El Celler de Can Roca's world tour was marked by the standing ovation from the almost 400 BBVA clients that had been invited to enjoy a special menu that paid homage to the British capital's cosmopolitan spirit.
Scottish salmon, lamb from Wales, or Wimbledon's legendary strawberries with cream were all part of a 20 course menu that combined local ingredients and Spanish wines. "We tried to reflect the broad variety of cultures that coexist in London," said Joan Roca after the last of the four dinners served at Hotel Café Royal. "We've prepared an Indian mandala, for example, but also served preparations that included an edible wood that we discovered in Argentina, or, of course, products that are more typical of our Mediterranean heritage. Our aim was to offer a sample of global cuisine, but without overlooking our roots."
Wimbledon's legendary strawberries with cream were all part of a 20 course menu that combined local ingredients and Spanish wines
Josep Roca's wine pairings drew praise from BBVA's customers and guests, who were treated to a tasting of a variety of historic brands, with names such as Tío Pepe, Gramona, Vega Sicilia or Torres. El Celler de Can Roca's sommelier wanted to pay tribute to some of his favorite designations of origin and to showcase the quality of Spanish wines in British territory. During his appreciation speech after the final dinner of the BBVA Tour 2016, Josep Roca spoke about cooking in the British capital, dubbing it "a privilege that we are pleased to share with all our team members, without whom we wouldn't be able to travel around the world." London is Europe's financial center, and for us, working here has been a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
Josep Roca, Spanish wine ambassador of the menus served during the BBVA Roca Tour 2016
Over the course of their English week, the Roca brothers took the opportunity to visit different restaurants and cocktail bars – some Michelin starred, others listed in some of the world's most reputed rankings, including the likes of The Clove Club, Zuma and Lyle's, on the restaurant side, and Artesian and Dandelyan, on the cocktail bar side.
The most famous siblings in world cuisine also took the opportunity that their London stay offered to visit the Westminster Kingsway College, the hospitality and culinary arts school that assisted them in the creation of the menu they served during the week. Out of the institution's 10 students, Kieran McHarrigle and Tania Lima were chosen by the Roca brothers and their team to complete the four-month apprenticeship stay at the Girona restaurant. BBVA and El Celler de Can Roca be choosing two hospitality students in each city included in the tour's itinerary.
The Roca brothers and the 35 chefs and waiters that make up their entourage are already headed for Hong Kong, the next stop in their World Tour, where they will cook over the course of three evenings for BBVA's local customers at the prestigious Hotel Peninsula.

This is the third tour on which the Roca brothers embark with BBVA. According to them, this is a way of leaving their comfort zone. "It allows us to reinvent ourselves."

London falls under the spell of El Celler de Can Roca's cooking
It was not an easy challenge but the Roca brothers always accomplish what they set out to do. Once again, El Celler de Can Roca proved that they can work their cooking magic far away from home. The whole team, led by Joan, Josep and Jordi Roca, gave its best to make this a memorable and successful tour-kickoff event. London fell under the spell of one of the best restaurants in the world, capable of taking the top spot, not once, but twice in three years.
The BBVA-El Celler de Can Roca 2016 Tour will travel around the world
London, Hong-Kong, Phoenix, San Francisco and Santiago de Chile are (in that order) the cities chosen for the third BBVA-El Celler de Can Roca Tour: a trip around the world. For 5 weeks, the Roca brothers and 40 members of staff from their restaurant will embark on a journey that will take them from Europe to the Asian continent and then across the Pacific to the U.S., then down the continent to the Chilean capital.

600 Bandits Terrorizing Kaduna Agree To Surrender Arms After Meeting With Islamic Scholar Sheikh Gumi In The Forest
About 600 suspected bandits and their commanders, who have been terrorising communities in Kaduna State, have agreed to lay down their arms and embrace peace. 7
LORDMAJORJanuary 22, 20210 Comment0207
GKING RECORD LABEL
The bandits announced the decision after a meeting with Islamic Scholar Sheikh Ahmad Gumi and State Police Commissioner Umar Muri, in a forest in Sabon Garin Yadi, Giwa Local Government Area of the state.
It was gathered that Gumi preached to the bandits and pleaded with them to allow peace to reign.
The bandits whose wives were seen in tears following the cleric's message of peace, promised to cease hostilities and ensure security in Zaria, Giwa, and the Kaduna-Birnin Gwari highway.
However, they warned that they would return to their old ways should security agents continue to harass their families and destroy their belongings.
They also vowed to go back to the forests should the government fail to fulfill their own part of the peace deal.
The details of the deal were not made available. The bandits gave rustling of their cattle, incessant harassment by security operatives, and neglect by the government as reasons for their resort to criminalities
The commanders of the suspected bandits said over the years, they were subjected to arbitrary arrests, extortion, and even killing of their innocent kinsmen by law enforcement agents.
"Thousands of our youths do not have anything to do, hence the decision to go into the forest. We also lack government's presence.
We don't have basic necessities like water, schools, clinics and others in all our localities, so we felt that, as long as government and the society do not change their attitude towards us, there will never be peace." one of the commanders said.
Sheiklh Gumi, who quoted verses of the Quran during his preaching said it was the first time he was hearing directly about their predicament.

With China becoming the 6th largest economy in 2004 and likely to rank 4th in 2005, it has become imperative to understand China so as to explore the increasing business opportunities in China. One of the usual route for this is to study and build social networks at the leading Chinese universities. Latest available figures show that there were about 85,000 foreign students studying in China in 2002.
With China becoming the 6th largest economy in 2004 and likely to rank 4th in 2005, this is likely to fuel further anxieties over the impact of China`s rising economic might for the world economic leaders. But for company executives and aspiring young entrepreneurs, it has become imperative to understand China so as to explore the increasing business opportunities in China. One of the usual route for this is to study and build social networks at the leading Chinese universities. Latest available figures show that there were about 85,000 foreign students studying in China in 2002. Almost 500 Chinese universities, mainly in Shanghai and Bejing, accept foreign students. The top 5 universities with the largest foreign students are Beijing Language and Culture Center, Fudan, Peking, Tsinghua and Shanghai universities. If you are planning to do a post-graduate MBA program while working in China, there are many learning organizations to choose from. The University of Maryland`s Smith School of Business offers a degree, custom and certification programs at learning centers within Beijing and Shanghai. Smith`s first executive MBA program class started in Jan 2003 and graduated in spring 2004. The University of Wisconsin Milwaukee`s School of Business Administration has recently launched an EMBA program in Beijing in partnership with Motorola for staff of Motorola`s China operations. Together with the top-ranked Jiao Tong University in Shanghai, the University of British Columbia is also offering an International MBA in China. Besides having the same curriculam as its Canadian MBA, professors from the University of British Columbia teach all of the courses. Another EMBA program is the Cass EMBA 2-year part-time off-campus program by City University from Britian which has been launched in collaboration with Bank of China and the Shanghai University of Finance & Economics. Britain`s Nottingham University is the first foreign university to establish a physical campus in Ningbo in September 2004. Nottingham Ningbo`s degree is comparable with its degree from the British campus with all courses conducted in English. The Chinese government is actively promoting more educational tie-ups in China to develop university graduates who will be better geared for the many multinational corporations operating in China and spearhead economic growth. Currently, there are about 700 such jointly managed educational programs in China. With the many future and current leaders and managers in China enrolling in the many tertiary education and post-graduate MBA programs, it makes good career sense to take up these courses and build a social network which will be useful for operating within Chinese business community for the future.

Cuomo says budget will propose spending $10 million more on census count
WXXI News | By Karen DeWitt
Gov. Andrew Cuomo is announcing that an additional $10 million will be in his new state budget to help with the 2020 national census and to make sure that as many New Yorkers as possible are counted.
And he's announced three celebrity chairs of his census commission: Martin Luther King III, "Hamilton" creator and star Lin Manuel Miranda and actor Lucy Liu.
Cuomo said the additional money will be used to target traditionally hard-to-count populations, including immigrants.
The governor said they may be wary of a federal government led by President Donald Trump that Cuomo said has been "antagonistic" toward those born in other countries.
"We literally have to knock on doors, call people's homes," Cuomo said. "Let them understand what the census is."
He said older adults might also be undercounted because the census is supposed to be done online this year, and many elderly people are not computer-savvy.
The census numbers determine everything from the number of congressional representatives a state has to funding for numerous programs. A recent report by the state comptroller found that New York once again in 2018 gave more money to the federal government in taxes than it received in return.
The state plans to spend a total of $70 million on the census count this year.

Flint, Mich. - The Arizona Coyotes have signed Flint Firebirds' defenseman Dennis Busby to an Amateur Tryout Agreement (ATO) with their American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Tucson Roadrunners. Busby has already joined the Roadrunners and will wear #11 with Tucson.
Busby, 19, recorded a career-high 0.52 points-per-game this season. He tallied 14 points (1G, 13A) in a shortened season of just 27 games this year.
The Barrie, Ont. native was selected by the Arizona Coyotes in the fifth-round (145th overall) of the 2018 NHL Draft after playing in just two games during his NHL Draft year.
Busby is now the third Firebird to be called up to the professional ranks since Flint's season ended last Sunday, joining forward Ty Dellandrea (Texas Stars) and defenseman Hakon Nilsen (Wichita Thunder).
Last season, Maurizio Colella (Worcester Railers) and Jalen Smereck (Tucson Roadrunners) were two Firebirds that earned professional bids. Prior to that, following the 2016-17 campaign, the Firebirds set a record of six players that signed contracts after a season: Nick Caamano (Texas Stars), Mathieu Henderson (South Carolina Stingrays), Connor Hicks (Adirondack Thunder), Ryan Moore (Orlando Polar Bears), Kole Sherwood (Cleveland Monsters) and Smereck (Tucson).
The Tucson Roadrunners are the primary development affiliate of the NHL's Arizona Coyotes.

D-Link PGS – drużyna sportu elektronicznego.

Drużyna kilkakrotnie zmieniała nazwy, barwy i symbole w zależności od sponsora tytularnego. Od czasów sformalizowania działalności w formie spółki firma posiada jednak jedno logo. Nieodłączna nazwa PGS wywodziła się początkowo z nazw inwestujących firm. Obecnie jest to nazwa własna. Po połączeniu się z Wilda D-Link, nazwa klanu brzmi D-Link PGS. Rozwiązanie drużyny nastąpiło w 2010 r.

Jako Pentagram ConneXion (CNN)
Barwami zespołu były czarny oraz żółty, a później, po modyfikacji, czarny i biały. Pierwszy projekt koszulki został wykonany na World Cyber Games Poland 2004. Fundamentem był motyw pentagramu, który był wizytówką sponsorującej firmy. Zespół grał w nich do 2005 roku.

Jako Team Pentagram (TP)
Pod nazwą Team Pentagram barwą zespołu była biel. Wszystkie stroje były białe z czarnymi napisami. Zawodnicy nosili koszulki polo, na których widniał pentagram. Po raz pierwszy na plecach znajdowały się pseudonimy graczy, a pod nimi lista sponsorów.

Jako Pentagram G-Shock (PGS)
W tym okresie PGS współpracował z firmą Cropp, która zaprojektowała stroje dla całej organizacji, w tym etapie projektów było dużo i różniły się od siebie stopniem skomplikowania. Istniała możliwość zakupu koszulki w sklepie na stronie internetowej. Pierwszą wersją był biały T-shirt z czarnymi rękawami i czarnym paskiem na kołnierzyku.

Jako PGSPokerStrategy.cc & PGSPokerStrategy.com (PGS.PS)
Po raz pierwszy jako symbol nie pojawił się pentagram, a wariacji strojów zostało wyprodukowanych dużo. Były to m.in. czarne, czerwone i żółte polo.

California just passed the toughest data privacy bill in the US
Reuters/Max Whittaker
New law, same old problems.
By Simone Stolzoff
Technology Reporter
June 29, 2018 This article is more than 2 years old.
California lawmakers passed a law to give people more control over how companies like Google and Facebook use their data.
In one day (June 28th), the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 unanimously passed both legislative chambers and was signed into law by governor Jerry Brown. Similar to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which went live in Europe in May, the law requires that Californians have access to and the ability to delete the data tech companies hold on them. It also gives users the ability to opt out of companies sharing (and theoretically selling) their data to third parties. Other states are working on similar legislation, but this is one of the most comprehensive set of laws passed to date. The regulations will go into effect in January 2020.
In lieu of a national data protection policy in the US, this new law in the nation's most populous state may well force tech companies to shift their policies for all Americans given the complexity of maintaining different standards in different states. (Then again, Facebook, which has over 2 billion monthly users, maintains differing privacy standards for various regions in the world.)
"The state that pioneered the tech revolution is now, rightly, a pioneer in consumer privacy safeguards," James Steyer, CEO of Common Sense Media, one of the bill's main backers, said in a statement. "Today was a huge win and gives consumer privacy advocates a blueprint for success."
When asked about the bill at a press conference on Thursday, Facebook's chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg said the social network supported the bill.


At Schenck & Company, we've built a reputation on quality. And we demand that everything we produce or sell meet the same, high standards.
For the convenience of our customers, we offer professional-quality floor buffers, WOCA oils, a variety of maintenance products to help you protect the investment in a fine wood floor.
We can help create custom wooden beams for your home and we also offer a selection of handcrafted tables.
Because our products should be personally matched to your specific project's needs, please call 713-266-7608 or e-mail us to make a purchase.

Information to pilgrims in times of COVID

Information to pilgrims in times of COVID is a section that we have decided to write and that we will update so that we can all have all the information possible.
Our recommendation is to stay at home, be careful and leave the camino plans for when the situation is better given the current situation and the ORDER of November 4, 2020 of Xunta de Galicia, where COVID prevention measures are established that require, among other things at the closure of the hotel business, mobility limits and convincing social meetings in 60 municipalities in Galicia.
However, we warn that there are pilgrims making the camino, there are many who need information to manage their journey because returning home means arriving at the airport in Santiago, something that we already experienced in March, so we want to make several clear points:
1. Can pilgrims go on their way?
Pilgrims can pass through the perimeter municipalities in transit, as long as it is solely and exclusively to continue their journey. Pilgrims who have already been on their way since October 30 will be able to access Santiago and spend the night in the capital.
Font: caminodesantiago.gal
2. What schedules must be taken into account?
Curfew throughout Galicia from 11:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. Curfew in 121 regions with the highest rate of infection in Portugal: 11:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. and on weekends from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m.
3. What are the municipalities or territorial areas that affect the Camino Portuguese ?
Santiago, Ames, Boqueixón, Oroso, O Pino, Teo, Trazo, Val do Dubra y Vedra (cierre conjunto).
Pontevedra, Vilaboa, Ponte Caldelas, Poio, Marín, Barro, Campo Lameiro, Cerdedo-Cotobade y Soutomaior (cierre conjunto).
Vigo, Mos, Nigrán, Gondomar, O Porriño y Redondela (cierre conjunto).
Tui.
Consult: news La Voz de Galicia
4. Is it recommended to make an alternative route to avoid the affected municipalities?
There are pilgrims who are recommended to go to Monçao to cross to Salvaterra and from there to Poriño because thea people say tat "it isn´t possible to cross to Tui". We don´t recommend it, it is dangerous to travel through unrecognized routes, in addition Porriño is within an affected area, and as indicated in Turismo de Galicia, you can cross Tui in transit.
5. Can the albergues host?
According to the regulations of November 4, 2020, the albergues can be open. As it doesn´t appear in the list of non-essential activities, the common regulations for the rest of the councils will be applied, therefore, the maximum capacity will be 50%. In the case of Ideas Peregrinas, we have a minimum reception service for pilgrims who by necessity have to spend the night in Tui and always following the covid prevention protocol rules.

"...The Black Swans work, however, is not finished; it has only begun. As an international collaboration, conversation, and invitation, Black Swans is poised to be re-imagined by Australian artists,—indigenous and non-indigenous, Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal alike. Only then will the scope of its values yield and its vision be fulfilled. The black swan has found its belonging to and among us. The question is: how do we belong to the black swan?..."

To be honest, I have never seen the technology that is unobtrusive enough and effective enough to translate speech to text, there are many claims, but the issue of developers is accents, regional differences, speech variations and background noise.. I don't think carting around phones or ipads will do it for most of us. Even the 'glasses' don't function really. The only effective answer is good hearing!

The Nigerian Criminal Code is the apex codified law in Nigeria for criminal investigation, trial and punishment of criminals. It is derived from the Nigeria Criminal Code Act 1916, Nigeria Penal Code Act 1960 and other criminal laws enacted by Nigerian Parliament from time to time. The latest consolidated version of the code is contained in Nigerian Criminal Code 1990.

Background

The Nigerian Criminal Code has been adapted from different laws in force in the country in different time periods since its colonial occupation by foreign governments. It includes the local African common laws and English laws borrowed from British dependencies.

Scope and limitations

It may be noted that the criminal code in Nigeria does not apply uniformly to all people in all provinces of the country. Most provisions of the Nigeria Penal Code apply only to the Northern Provinces in Nigeria.

Q: Coimage of a $G$-linear map as a sub representation of its domain I am reading an introduction on Representation theory, in particular about $G$-linear maps.
Suppose $(V,\rho),(W,\sigma)$ - $V,W$ finite dimensional complex vector spaces - are representations of a group $G$, and $\varphi\colon V \rightarrow W$ a $G$-linear map (equivariant map). It is mentioned that the kernel of $\varphi$ is a $G$-submodule of $V$ and that image and cokernel of $\varphi$ are $G$-submodules of $W$. What about the coimage $V/\ker \varphi$?
I have tried to check if it is a $G$-submodule of $V$ and it seems so. It is a vector space, and if $[v] = v+\ker \varphi \in V/\ker \varphi$ and $g \in G$, then
$$g[v] = gv+g\ker \varphi = gv+\ker \varphi \in V/\ker \varphi $$
as $V$ is a $G$-module and $\ker \varphi$ is a $G$-submodule of $V$. Am I missing anything?
Thanks.

To close the 2019 Festival of Debate, they'll be holding a Question Time-style event, featuring a variety of leading political figures and commentators, answering direct questions from the audience.
Speakers include the outgoing Lord Mayor Magid Magid, Novara Media's Ash Sarkar and openDemocracy editor and journalist Adam Ramsay.
The event rounds off the festival's Living Together Hub Day, which takes on the forces that seek to divide us, covering social inclusion of disabled people, collective decision making, the death penalty, responding to hate crime in public spaces, Somaliland, homelessness, and more.


Dr. Weeks' Comment: Controlling the weather has always been a goal of mankind – and some have sought to weaponize it. Nonetheless, toxic chemtrails wafting overhead have been ignored for the past 5 years despite their omnipresence! Now the topic is hitting the main stream press – see below.
…. But first watch this video and then this video.
THE idea of artificially cooling the climate may have come in from the cold, but the laws governing trials of the technology are still all at sea. Many people think such trials are illegal, but this is not the case, according to an analysis of environmental treaties.
The latest report from the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change includes geoengineering – a sure sign that the idea has become respectable. But research and field trials are needed before we know whether influencing the climate like this is a viable option for cooling Earth.
This is easier said than done. In 2010, the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) forbade any form of geoengineering that could affect biodiversity – which is effectively all of them. And any geoengineering that involves adding chemicals to the ocean, to increase the carbon sequestered, for example, is prohibited by the London Convention and Protocol (LCP). However, some small-scale trials have gone ahead.
To find out the legal status of such trials, Jesse Reynolds of Tilburg Law School in the Netherlands went through the fine print of 15 major environmental treaties, including the CBD, the LCP and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. He found that apart from the LCP's ruling on dumping material into the sea, which is legally binding, the language of the other treaties actually permits field tests. The CBD statement, for example, merely "invites" governments to ensure no geoengineering activities take place, rather than making it a legal requirement to do so (Washington and Lee Journal of Energy, Climate, and the Environment, ssrn.com/=2326913).
Reynolds found that most of the treaties encouraged countries to perform research, clean up pollution and minimise risks. Because geoengineering research is meant to reduce the risk from climate change, Reynolds says "international environmental law generally favours such field tests".
"The fallback position is that countries are more or less free to do what they want," says Scott Barrett of the Earth Institute at Columbia University in New York.
Many treaties could incorporate rules on geoengineering, but Barrett says the obvious choice is the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which holds its next meeting in November in Warsaw, Poland. "If this is to be discussed anywhere, it should be there," he says.
Correction: When this article was first published on 30 October 2013, the month of the UNFCCC meeting in Poland was ambiguous.

In today's competitive and multi-faceted events industry, its often difficult for graduates to get their first job and gain that all important experience and to understand the different aspects of the industry.
The C2 Internship Programme has been developed in conjunction with Huddersfield University who are part funding the scheme in return for it being open to one of their graduates. Essentially it is similar to 'work experience' for a 10-week paid for period with activities ranging from shadowing team members to supporting the team with duties.
We recently interviewed and hired a graduate from Huddersfield, Shirley Butler, who was completing her finals and looking for an events company to gain work experience.
Katie Bennett from C2 who organised the programme and interviewed candidates said, "We were really impressed with Shirley. In addition to her academic achievements, she worked as a Student Liaison and Events Assistant as well as being involved in the coordination of marketing material and various social media platforms.


Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo state yesterday introduced a new twist to his political turbulence as he said his travails were as a result of a serious gang up from Political leaders from South West and the North, against his 2023 presidential ambition.
Okorocha made the disclosure while addressing newsmen at his Ogboko country home in Ideato North Local Government Area of Imo state.
The Governor disclosed that despite the orchestrated plot against his political career, he will contest for the nation's highest political seat come 2023.
He however refused to mention the identity of his supposed political enemies who are seeking to stop him from higher political office.
According to him, there is a strong conspiracy to stop him from going to the Senate in 2019, alleging that the Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for Orlu zone, Hon Jones Onyereri is part of the conspiracy.
He said "there is conspiracy to stop me from going to the Senate.Hope Uzodinma has teamed up with Senator Osita Izunaso. There is an alliance with Jones Onyereri, they will use security Agencies to stop me. But I am going to the Senate to make a positive difference", Okorocha said.
On his quest to represent Orlu zone in the Senate, Okorocha said he is going there to make a positive difference, even as he maintained that Imo is enmeshed in neocolonialism.
The Governor said at the rate Imo is currently, political forces from the west and North were working to hijack the state's politics, saying "if care is not taken, a time will come in Imo State that before a sitting Governor appoints a commissioner, he will first get an approval from either the west or the North. Most of the Igbo elites have compromised but I am the only person who has not comprised and I will not compromise", Okorocha said.
The Governor who was instrumental to the emergence of Adams Oshiomhole as the National Chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC) failed to install his preferred candidate and son in-law, Chief Uche Nwosu as the party's flag bearer, who has since decamped to Action Alliance (AA).
While his opponent, Senator Hope Uzodinma is the party's flag bearer for Imo State governorship position.

Your life shifts from being run by it to you running it, as a Grand Master and Director, a true manager of your life. As a result, your life becomes much easier and much more fulfilling, full of things that create more happiness and satisfaction in life.
Before someone becomes an 80/20 Person, the time spent in "managing" and "directing" was, maybe, 1%, and it was mostly seen as a bother. But the 80/20 person spends a considerable amount of time in the thinking about what one wants and how to get it. The 80/20 Person makes sure that his/her life is full of the most desirable things and includes what is "necessary" to sustain life as being useful and good, but not "a bother".
The 80/20 Person realizes that this "management" time has the highest overall return of any activity in life. Many people think of the time spent managing as a bother that produces nothing, but it does, just as planning a trip is not the trip itself but it is the key to setting things up in order to enjoy the trip - obviously an essential part! Don't try a trip without it! Don't try a Life without it!!!!!!

Rescuing others: He could engage in co-planning but only with people who will perform.
let's go, replacing with more mutually beneficial people.
more and to which a greater contribution can be made.
they are not necessary or are very low maintenance.
Things that he/she probably won't finish: So he/she doesn't even start!!!
The 80/20 Person does not waste time in a low state of resourcefulness and does whatever is needed to go back into a state of high resourcefulness - and his/her effectiveness is multiplied, while things are also easier at the same time! He/she guards that resourcefulness as if it was life itself - as it is the equivalent of being vitally alive and getting the most out of life!
