You've finally made the leap and gone all-in on your tri kit to make the most of the summer's season, and the Louis Garneau Tri Course Sleeveless Jersey is an integral part of that performance upgrade. Its lightweight SpeedTech fabric features dimples, inspired by those found on a golf ball, with aims at reducing overall drag so you move through the air smoothly, and most importantly, with more speed. Add in a form-fitting, super streamlined profile and you have a race-ready piece of kit that tucks stealthily under a wetsuit and dries quickly on the bike so you can focus on moving forward to the next transition.
In addition to its wind-cheating fabrics, the Tri Course jersey includes all the features discerning triathletes look for when deciding on kit. In addition to its aero properties, the fabrics' high breathability and moisture-wicking prowess situate it well to handle the rigors of warm-weather events.

Top Active Experiences in Arenal/La Fortuna
Thanks to its array of recreational opportunities, outdoor enthusiasts, adventure seekers, and those who prefer active vacations all make their way to Costa Rica's Arenal/La Fortuna region. Enjoy lively excursions with unique twists, such as trekking to aquamarine lagoons, rappelling down waterfalls, hiking along hanging bridges suspended in the air, or standup paddleboarding, biking, and horseback riding at the base of a volcano.
From swimming to hiking and everything in between, Arenal/La Fortuna offers it all.
In northern Costa Rica, you'll find the country's beloved Arenal region with its main town, La Fortuna. Of all the regions in Costa Rica, many adventure-seeking travelers choose Arenal/La Fortuna, as it offers an abundance of outdoor recreational opportunities. The area's highlight is surely the Arenal Volcano, a cone-shaped mountain with Lake Arenal, Costa Rica's largest lake, at its base. The volcano and lake alone offer exciting excursions, including standup paddleboarding, hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding.
Although the volcano is the region's draw, you'll find even more unique experiences to enjoy, such as hiking across a turquoise river to a beautiful lagoon, whitewater rafting, or rappeling down a waterfall. In addition, you can ride the tram, fly across zip lines, and trek across hanging bridges to explore the jungles. And if you need a day to rest, there are plenty of other things to do in Arenal/La Fortuna, plus lots of delicious eateries in La Fortuna town.
With so much coastline to enjoy, you might not set your sights on the country's inland for water sports. But in Arenal/La Fortuna, you can standup paddleboard at the base of a volcano, rappel down waterfalls, and enjoy some of the most thrilling whitewater rafting in Costa Rica.
Standup Paddleboarding (SUP) on Lake Arenal
Paddle out onto the lake and gaze directly at the Arenal Volcano.
Lake Arenal is Costa Rica's largest inland body of water, set beautifully under the gaze of the Arenal Volcano. After a quick SUP lesson (or a refresher for seasoned paddlers) enjoy plenty of time to paddle on the lake, explore islands, and find waterbirds. Before you head back to the boat, be sure to enjoy the special spot near the center of the lake, where you get direct views of the volcano. Read More

Enjoy a unique exploration of Arenal's rainforests with a trip on the sky tram, a ride on zip lines, and a hike along the skywalk hanging bridges. Start with a ride on the open-air gondola with 360° views of the surrounding landscape. Then, fly through the jungle on a series of zip lines that reach 660 feet tall and over 2,000 feet long. End the excursion with a hike across hanging bridges, where a naturalist will help you identify the famed flora and fauna of the region. Read More

How to Craft the Perfect Active Itinerary in Arenal/La Fortuna
The incredible beauty and geology of the Arenal Volcano.
Because Arenal/La Fortuna's main attraction is its outdoor recreation, crafting an itinerary filled with exciting adventures is easy. How many days you spend in Arenal/La Fortuna depends on how much you want to do. You can accomplish quite a bit in just 24 hours, but you could also easily fill 2-4 days in the region.
Many travelers prefer to combine Arenal/La Fortuna with other regions, which prompts the question: how many days should you spend in Costa Rica as a whole? Because it takes time to travel between areas, and there's so much to experience in Costa Rica, try to give yourself at least one week. Just 7 days in Costa Rica can mesh beaches and mountains with adventures, wildlife, and rainforests. Plan for at least two weeks if you'd like to see more, such as hop from one national park to the next and traverse the country.

Galactosialidosis, is caused by the absence of an enzyme called Protective Protein/Cathepsin A (PPCA).
This enzyme works with two other enzymes, B- Galactosidase and Neuraminidase, to break down oligosaccharides. PPCA also helps in protecting the enzymes Galactosidase and Neuraminidase from being broken down in the lysosome. Thus, when PPCA is absent, it also leads to the absence of B-Galactosidase and Neuraminidase.
There are three forms of galactosialidosis which are distinguished by the age at which symptoms develop and the pattern of features.
Early Infantile Form
The early infantile form of galactosialidosis is associated with extensive swelling caused by fluid accumulation before birth (hydrops fetalis), a soft outpouching in the lower abdomen (an inguinal hernia), and an enlarged liver and spleen (hepatosplenomegaly). Additional features of this form include abnormal bone development (dysostosis multiplex) and distinctive facial features that are often described as "coarse." Some infants have an enlarged heart (cardiomegaly); an eye abnormality called a cherry-red spot, which can be identified with an eye examination; and kidney disease that can progress to kidney failure. Infants with this form usually are diagnosed between birth and 3 months; they typically live into late infancy.
Late Infantile Form
The late infantile form of galactosialidosis shares some features with the early infantile form, although the signs and symptoms are somewhat less severe and begin later in infancy. This form is characterized by short stature, dysostosis multiplex, heart valve problems, hepatosplenomegaly, and "coarse" facial features. Other symptoms seen in some individuals with this type include intellectual disability, hearing loss, and a cherry-red spot. Children with this condition typically develop symptoms within the first year of life. The life expectancy of individuals with this type varies depending on the severity of symptoms.
Juvenile/Adult Form
The juvenile/adult form of galactosialidosis has signs and symptoms that are somewhat different than those of the other two types. This form is distinguished by difficulty coordinating movements (ataxia), muscle twitches (myoclonus), seizures, and progressive intellectual disability. People with this form typically also have dark red spots on the skin (angiokeratomas), abnormalities in the bones of the spine, "coarse" facial features, a cherry-red spot, vision loss, and hearing loss. The age at which symptoms begin to develop varies widely among affected individuals, but the average age is 16. This form is typically associated with a normal life expectancy.
How common is Galactosialidosis?
The prevalence of galactosialidosis is unknown; more than 100 cases have been reported.
What other names do people use for Galactosialidosis?
• deficiency of cathepsin A
• Goldberg syndrome
• lysosomal protective protein deficiency
• neuraminidase deficiency with beta-galactosidase deficiency
• PPCA deficiency
Is there a Treatment for Galactosialidosis?
There is no cure for galactosialidosis. Treatment is symptomatic and supportive; for example, taking medication to control seizures. Individuals with galactosialidosis are encouraged to routinely see their genetic counselors, neurological, ophthalmological, and other specialists as symptoms arise and to keep symptoms controlled. Bone marrow transplant is under investigation as an experimental therapy. No conclusive results are currently available regarding the long term benefits of this treatment.

Malawi court sentences Chinese wildlife trafficking kingpin to 14 years in jail
Our NewsNewsActivism
(The AEGIS Alliance) – LEE COUNTY, FLORIDA – Two types of courts exist in Lee County, Florida, Circuit Court and County Court, and this is a report about the crime of Forgery and Official Misconduct. Both of those charges are 3rd-degree felonies and are used to bounce cases between these two courts by a State Attorney to shop for the best judges and courts for cases. Judge shopping is a common allegation in the legal world, in Lee County, Florida they push judge shopping to a higher level of corruption, Court shopping. It is difficult and can only be accomplished with an official crime. Now the UN-elected Sheriff, Carmine Marceno is neck-deep in these serious government crimes.
Sign Scott Huminski's Change.org petition: http://chng.it/KzQyvZwtLb
Scott Huminski, the founder and leader of the anti-Police State rock band, Scott X and the Constitution Commandos began receiving death threats from Maricopa County, Arizona in 2013 through 2017. When Huminski began reporting the crime to Sheriff Mike Scott, instead of enforcing the law, Mike Scott chose to silence Huminski and deny him law enforcement and public safety services in Lee County to this pesky activist. So he then obtained a gag order to silence Huminski. Henceforth all communication with the sheriff or any of his staff became a crime of contempt.
Upon receipt of another death threat in 2017, Huminski reported it to the sheriff as any ordinary citizen would, and the Sheriff had his crony State Attorney Amira Fox prosecute Huminski. For a critic of the police state, reporting a crime is a crime, Contempt of Court.
Things went wrong for Amira Fox because the Court and judge she chose for the case, Judge Elizabeth Krier, a Circuit Court judge, recused herself from the case because of extreme conflict of interest. The new judge on the case was Chief Circuit Judge Michael McHugh who does not have the same propensity to ignore the rule of law that made Judge Krier the perfect choice for Amira Fox. Although Circuit Judge McHugh knew of the dirty details of this case, he didn't wish to participate and was happy to look on from the sidelines while the corruption transpired.
Amira Fox hatched a scheme to get a contempt of court case before a judge and a Court whereby it would be guaranteed that activist Huminski would be convicted by a Judge that would be willing to ignore the Statutes and Constitution, Florida Contempt Rule 3.840, and the federal right to counsel and a jury trial mandated by the Bill of Rights as well as Florida Rule 3.840. See Rule 3.840.
Now State Attorney Amira Fox had to get creative, she didn't want the Contempt Case in 17-CA-421 to be heard by Chief Circuit Judge Michael McHugh because he tends to obey the Rule of Law and he is not quite as prone to corruption.
Fox needed a solution – FORGERY
On June 30, 2017, Amira Fox printed out a court order from the 20th Circuit Court, case 17-CA-421 dated June 5, 2017. See page 1 of the June 6 order with the correct timestamp and the correct docket number that Amira Fox printed out on June 30, 2017. Page 1 of order. All legitimate and proper.
Still on June 30, Amira Fox, then with the printed-out June 5 order in front of her, hand-modified the order by pen (hand-written) with a newly generated Lee County Court docket number, 17-MM-815 which she created behind the back of Judge Krier, without a new signature from Judge Krier. See Page 1 of the forgery of Amira Fox manufactured on June 30 with a new handwritten docket number and a double-time stamp on the top of the paper indicating that the order is a forgery and not an original order authored and signed by a judge. Page 1 or Order.
The handwriting on the forgery is now ripe for analysis by the Carmine Marceno's Lee County Sheriff Office for felony forgery and felony official misconduct charges, F.S. 831.01, F.S. 838.022, and he has notice and knowledge of the crimes.
With a new Docket Number and a fresh forgery of a court order that Amira Fox manufactured (behind the back of Judge Krier, without a new signature from Judge Krier), Fox was ready to prosecute a case against Scott Huminski in another court, a second court, a double jeopardy violation.
The cunning State's Attorney, Amira Fox, then took this forgery to the clerk of court, told them that this was an order from a judge when it was actually a forgery manufactured by Amira Fox that same day. She then filed it as a charging document initiating a new criminal case in a completely different Court, Lee County Court, with a forged hand-written docket number, 17-MM-815, with a "lifted" old judicial signature and made sure the case was assigned to Judge James Adams.
Amira Fox knew Judge James Adams would have no problem with the forgery, and a judge that he had been caught and condemned by the Second District Court of Appeal in Lakeland, Florida in case Pena v. State and Judge James Adams had been reprimanded by the Florida Supreme Court for sexual misconduct with an attorney appearing before him in exchange for great results in court for the sexually abused attorney. Case hijacking was right in Judge James Adams' comfort zone. Anything goes.
Judge Adams' history of hijacking cases from other courts/judges made him the perfect judge to accept Amira Fox's forgery and to work with Fox to convict at all costs, which turned out to include stripping Huminski of defense counsel and the right to a jury trial mandated by the Bill of Rights and Florida Rule 3.840.
Now Fox had everything set up for conviction based upon her forgery. There was just one problem though, because of the forgery of Judge Krier's signature (electronically "lifted" from the June 6 20th Circuit Court order) and the back channels used in the dark recesses of the Lee Courthouse Complex, Huminski was never served with the forgery. There existed no valid case against Scott Huminski, because, unfortunately for State Attorney Amira Fox, judicial signatures cannot be recycled and reused like clothing at a Goodwill store, they must be authentic originals. See Docket sheet from the case initiated with a forgery, Lee County Court, 17-MM-815, NO SERVICE. See Docket.
Fundamental Due Process in the United States requires a Court to have personal and subject matter jurisdiction over a cause to proceed. Why didn't Amira Fox serve the document, it's free and quite simple? Maybe Amira Fox was just too embarrassed about the forgery or the corrupt courthouse gymnastics used to get the forgery filed in a new court just caused her to forget to serve the document … she was just too busy manufacturing and filing the forgery. The result of a lack of service is a court has no personal jurisdiction over a defendant equating to no legal case at all. The case is void. Docket without service.
The acts of moral turpitude by Sheriff Carmine Marceno, State's Attorney Amira Fox, Judge James Adams, and Clerk of Courts Linda Doggett in this little corrupt corner of southwest Florida have extended to a Tampa appellate court and to the Florida Supreme Court. Anything goes for a bloodthirsty prosecutor out for a pound of flesh despite the burden on courts throughout the State of Florida foisted upon them by a corrupt prosecutor and judge that rubber-stamps prosecutorial misconduct and constitutional violations. This is judicial and prosecutorial misconduct that is prejudicial to the administration of justice. Judge Adams and Fox make an interesting crime-fighting, or, more properly, crime-perpetrating duo.
See Brief filed in the Florida Supreme Court that memorializes the events and issues presented in the case of per se government crime and misconduct. Huminski v. Florida, SC20-598.
First of all, the June 5, 2017 signature of a judge cannot be lifted off one document, affixed to another document, and then held out by prosecutor Amira Fox as an order authored by a judge and valid to initiate a new case in a new court on June 30, 2017. The signature of Judge Krier in Circuit Court case, 17-ca-421, is just that, a judicial signature valid only on one document, in one court, the 20th Circuit Court, and in one case 17-ca-421.
As a criminal prosecutor one would think Amira Fox would at least be better at forgery than simply lifting a judicial signature to forge a court order. The forgery of June 30, 2017, retains the signature of Judge Krier from June 5, 2017, and the date of signing is June 5, 2017, and the paper is date stamped on June 5, 2017, even though this manufactured order was created on June 30. The forgery of June 30 was hand modified by Amira Fox with a new docket and case number and it is time and date stamped both on June 5, 2017, and June 30, 2017. In the Lee Court Complex, court orders are indeed like used clothing at a goodwill store that can be used and recycled over and over again lacking any scintilla of legitimacy.
Amira Fox should have at least removed the June 5 courthouse date and time stamp from the filing in the Circuit Court on the June 30 County Court filing while she was manufacturing the order to create a more credible new County Court order. In forgery, haste can make waste or a very transparently poor forgery.
Why the obsession to create a forged court order? Amira Fox correctly calculated that her chances of success in the Circuit Court were no longer good without Judge Krier who recused from the case. The forgery was manufactured not only for the purpose of judge shopping, but Amira Fox also engaged in the forgery for Court shopping. If the case stayed in Circuit Court where it was properly initiated, there would be no need for a forged court order. She desperately wished the case to be in County Court with Judge Adams who was known for case hijacking and constitutional deprivations among other scandalous problems.
The forgery by Amira Fox was accompanied by assistance from the Clerk of Courts, Linda Doggett, who falsified court records by back-dating and docketing the forgery to almost a month earlier to make it appear more legitimate on court docket sheets. Amira Fox and the clerk also falsified the "offense date" on court docket sheets in Lee County Court, 17-mm-815 docket sheet. The true "offense date" is April 26, 2017, not June 5, 2017, as lied to by the Clerk of Courts on court docket sheets that Linda Doggett, in 2019, certified as authentic to the 2nd District Court of Appeal in Lakeland, Florida. See the very first order of April 26, 2017, memorializing the true and correct offense date on or before April 26, 2017. True order and correct offense date. Unlike the felony Official Misconduct, F.S. 838.022, forgery of Fox and Doggett, this court order is the true and authentic 119 pages long, not the 3-page length of the Amira Fox forgery.
This is felony Official Misconduct related to the docket sheet and the mysterious disappearance of 116 pages from the court order is further evidence of sloppy forgery and felony Official Misconduct related to the felony forgery.
The clerk's back-dating and false "offense date" are felony Official Misconduct related to the docket sheet. In fact, the filing date of the forgery of June 30, 2017, even though stamped on the forgery by the Clerk, appears nowhere on any court docket sheet in any related case at the Lee Courthouse complex. Detailed descriptions, copies of court papers, government documents, and other evidence were forwarded to Sheriff Carmine Marceno and are at the Sunshine Law document request at Muckrock.com alerting Sheriff Carmine Marceno of the rampant crime flourishing in the Lee Court Complex. What has Sheriff Carmine Marceno done subsequent to his knowledge of these crimes – cover them up and hope nobody notices?
Now, the new UN-elected sheriff, Carmine Marceno, appointed by former Governor Rick Scott at the insistence of former sheriff Mike Scott who has received a formal complaint of the courthouse forgery via a muckrock.com Sunshine Law request is happy to be part of the cover-up in this courthouse crime. He is now actively participating in the cover-up. See Also.
Forgery and Official Misconduct are third-degree felonies as described in Florida Statutes Section 831.01 and 838.022 and carry a penalty of up to five years in prison, up to five years of probation, and up to a $5,000 fine. The statute of limitations for cases against government employees extends for three years after the government employee leaves office. The statute of limitations will still hold for three years after Amira Fox, Linda Doggett, Judge James Adams, and Carmine Marceno leave their offices.
Sheriff Carmine Marceno continued on with Mike Scott's crime of embracing a gag order against Huminski if Huminski reported a crime. Reporting crime is a crime in Mike Scott's and now Carmine Marceno's world. The gag order is still in effect barring Huminski's communication with anyone working under Marceno, including his staff who are always present at the courthouse as bailiffs and security. And, now, there's the forgery and official misconduct Marceno knows about and is covering up.
Amira Fox was prosecuting Huminski for reporting a crime to Sheriff Mike Scott, the crime of death threats Huminski was getting from Maricopa County, Arizona. For an activist like Scott Huminski that the government wishes to silence, reporting a crime is a crime and the First Amendment is cast aside. Now close allies, Sheriff Carmine Marceno and State Attorney Amira Fox are truly partners in crime as well as in politics.
Ironically, tragically and notoriously, the court shopping scheme of Amira Fox via the use of forgery and Official Misconduct was invalidated by a 2019 order of a Tampa appellate court, the Second District Court of Appeal, in Huminski v. State, 2D19-1247. See ruling finding that the offense Huminski was charged with, contempt of court, can only be heard by the court where it occurred invalidating the criminal antics of Amira Fox and her cohorts in the Lee County Court for a 20th Circuit Court contempt matter, yet, Huminski stands convicted and was imprisoned. Ruling 2D17-1247. This ruling is patently consistent with logic, the charge was contempt of court, not contempt of every and any court. Illegally adjudicating alleged Circuit Court contempt in County Courts is corruption unique to only southwest Florida, the remainder of the State operates legally, however, the official crimes impact Tampa area courts and the Florida Supreme Court as this level of corruption is hard to contain.

There are two contradictory dates are in the header of the document. Court orders can not be recycled and reused by a corrupt State's Attorney.

We are all storytellers now, aren't we? Alex Hesz, the digital director of Adam & Eve/DDB, begs to differ.
We have reached, surely, 'peak storytelling'. Actually, we've reached 'peak peak', too, but that's for another day.
Moistened toilet tissue makers. Tyre-fitters. Insurance brokers. Across the land, business cards are being hastily rewritten. We are all storytellers now. A YouTube channel and a content strategy is all it takes to transform a business, any business, into a storytelling powerhouse.
Except, as all of us know deep down, that can't possibly be true.
Three things are important, and ignored too often.
Firstly, you (that is, your brand, your client, your product) are probably not a storyteller.
Second, you are probably obviously not a storyteller. And finally, and most importantly, that's not something to panic about. Because there's no reason you need to be one to still be an effective, entertaining, useful, famous brand.
But, just in case, let's see if we can at least arrive at an understanding of what storytelling in marketing communications looks like when we encounter it. Because, even though it's relatively rare, it is real. And, done right, done for a reason, it can make a difference.
The foundation myth of brands as storytellers is a familiar one. Denying the commercial intent of marketing collateral and casting it in grander light is not new news. Nobody can deny there is a narrative arc to, for instance, the Meerkats. Or the Smash Martians.
They have characters, like Canterbury Tales has characters. Those characters go on adventures of sorts, just like they do on X-Factor. Those adventures have beginnings, middles and ends, like the Die Hard films.
The structural devices of story are present. On TV, though, somehow we feel comfortable referring to those films as commercials.
They're ads. If a detergent ad tries to tell a little story of sorts (as they always have to some extent) that doesn't make the brand, somehow, both a seller of detergent and, in parallel, a storyteller.
On TV, we've always known and been comfortable with that. Isolated messages designed to shift product or services are happy to admit to being just that.
A little bit of character and dialogue, a little context and plot, just makes them less dull. Oh, and by the way, they work just fine. Just ask Oak Furnitureland.
The internet, as ever, seems to have changed everything. Somehow, taken off TV, we want commercial messages to become more than that. What would be an ad if it interrupted Coronation Street becomes, to some, a story when it does not.
Now, in some cases, the broader breathing space offered by unlimited time lengths, formats and opportunities across the web certainly creates opportunities for deeper storytelling than does a 30-second spot or a 48 sheet poster. But brevity doesn't prevent storytelling any more than breadth and length encourages it.
The famous Hemingway short story ("For Sale. Baby's Shoes. Never Worn.") fits into a tweet with most of the characters to spare, and does a fairly good job.
So if story isn't about length of format, and it's not about how many times we encounter it (evidently a story can be told in a single piece of collateral, from a picture to a short film) then what is it that marks the storyteller out from the advertiser? And, just as importunity, what advantage does that status confer?
Here, it gets (even more) subjective. Stephen Moffat, perhaps the most pre-eminent British storyteller of the last few years, has a simple point of view: "We are all stories, in the end."
Stories are about us just as much as they are about their subject. They require our context to be complete. We make them matter. So too the best advertising.
'Dear Sophie' or 'Monty the Penguin' work because they're about us, first and foremost, and about their respective products, Google Chrome and John Lewis, only after that.
The Domestos Germs, the creators of which doubtless believe themselves to have a killer storytelling asset on their hands, are not about us. They're about germs and toilets.
They're about cleaning products. They're a metaphor, and a good one, for the product. But through Moffat's lens, they're not stories.
That doesn't make them any less effective or entertaining as ads, by the way. I'm sure they shift bleach like nobody's business, and they're a hoot.
Perhaps that distinction is as good a place to start as any. The best advertising, the best marketing communications more broadly, qualifies as storytelling because at its best it's about us. It reveals a truth about what we're like and how we live, not just a truth about how a product or service works.
That truth makes the comedy funnier ("look again, the tickets are now diamonds") and the tragedy more moving ("just because it's not happening here, doesn't mean it's not happening").
So next time you refer to your brand as a storytelling brand, ask what your story is about. And if it's about your product or service, then you're just making ads (which, by the way, is fine, and can work terrifically). But if it's about people, if it's a mirror in which we're able to see ourselves in even a slightly new light, then just perhaps you're not.

Q: Separate Application Server vs Grails framework for biz logic? I am a bit confused on the difference between using Grails domain model/service to inlcude my biz logic or make my Grails controller/services to talk to my application server and make the web layer separate from the application logic layer?

*

*When do I select which?

*What are the pros and cons of each approach?

*Any gotcha using the Grails domain stuff specially for scalability and what not?

A: If you already have a web service that handles your domain and business rules, you can turn off db support.
If you do that, your grails app is effectively a thin web layer on top of another service.  In this case, if you are going to enforce business rules, you could still do it in service/domain layers.  However, I would not do this, and certainly not any complex validation, because the service should be your single source of truth for the app, and you don't want to duplicate business rules in 2 apps.
I would still use controllers for handling web requests, and services for interacting with the other service.  I would also have some sort of simple domain layer for passing data thru the sections of the web layer (i.e. services return anemic domain objects, controllers serialize them to the client however makes sense).  The majority of the work would be in the service layer, which would serialize and deserialize the communication with the other service.
Based on your comment, Grails is a fine technology for building your server layer.  Why would you think it isn't?  Grails bills itself as a rapid development environment; it provides everything you need for all layers of a standard web-app.  You don't lose anything; quite the contrary, you gain quite a bit, such a integration with persistence, spring, a robust testing framework, etc.

The Big Red Robe (Da Hong Pao) is a darkly oxidized oolong tea from oolong's birthplace, the Wuyi Mountains of China's Fujian Province. Upfront notes of molasses & apricot with a lingering and mouthwatering finish.
This tea got its name from a Buddhist Monk who while traveling a great distance to take an important exam, stopped to make tea from wild bushes growing near the mountain path. Revived, he received the highest test score and was given a silk rob. Upon his return trip, he honored the tea bush by placing the red robe on it.

Haven't been here in a good while, thought i'd stop in and say hello. Hello to all the new folks and Hidy to everyone else.
You're never lost if ya don't care where you're at.
Most of us who are still here are fine, I think, but most folks have moved on.
Hate to hear that. I might start coming around more often maybe depends if I have time.
Yes. Seems you couldn't have got people to leave here faster with a sling shot and bag of road apples for ammo.
Too many changes of late for many people. No more magazine, and all. As nice as Self Reliance can be it isn't the old rag by far. But then the old rag would have a hard time selling in todays world. Seems most in print are or moving to a kind of Cosmopolitan in denim on glossy paper. I suspect that seems to be what sells to a bigger part of todays population.
As the saying goes. Not my cup of tea.. Or latte in todays world.
Add my 5cts----I think its a misnomer about noone reading the Old Rag---so many held dear.
A shot in the foot----on purpose.
With a magizine you can just pick it up and re-read an article--Now you'll have to go to your computer or phone and dig it up IF said machine hasnt conked out on you.
Alot can be said for the Ole Ways---I liked them.
Hi everyone! Been too busy to check in here in a while, but I'll try to do better.
I think the demise of the mag has hurt things here. I, too, have tried Self Reliance, and although it's not bad, it just doesn't have the same feel as BWH. Can't stand any of the other mags, either. Don't seem to be geared towards me, just the hobby farmer yuppies.
I just ordered the last two year's anthologies. Guess I'll have to get my BWH fix once a year. Better than nothing, as I'm not a kindle person.
Like you, I don't frequent the forum much anymore. It still has some value in that I love to watch the banter between Missourifree and Hunter88. Now that's entertainment! LOL! I do think that this forum is slowly going by the wayside. Sad for it to do so. Have a happy New Year to you both! Blessings to both of you!
Happy New Year and blessings to you as well, the1gman!

LOS ANGELES — Walt Disney is in. This week the studio will break new ground by starting a campaign that boldly offers its "Wall-E" as a contender for the best picture Oscar, an honor never yet won by an animated film.
Warner Brothers is in, too. That studio recently telegraphed plans for a multifront Oscar campaign for its Batman blockbuster "The Dark Knight" by sending awards voters a query about their preferred format for promotional DVDs.
Welcome to the pop Oscars.
After years of giving plenty of running room to independent film companies or studio art house divisions that set the pace with critic-friendly but limited-audience films like last year's "No Country for Old Men" and "There Will Be Blood," this year the major studios are pushing some of their biggest crowd-pleasers into the thick of the awards race.
Their approaching multimillion-dollar campaigns come at a time when the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, whose 6,000-plus members award the Oscars, is planning to give its annual show a more commercially popular flavor. In part the academy's producers will do that by including glimpses of the year's box office favorites, whether or not they are nominated for prizes.
Shrinkage in the small-film business has left more room for big studios to play the Oscar game. Awaiting awards pushes are films like Universal's "Frost/Nixon," directed by Ron Howard; Paramount's "Curious Case of Benjamin Button," a David Fincher film starring Brad Pitt; and 20th Century Fox's "Australia," a Baz Luhrmann epic starring Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman.
At the same time Hollywood's blockbusters, rich in effects and increasingly complex in their themes, appear to have become more award-worthy of late.
The drift away from audience-oriented contenders has precipitated a sharp drop in viewers for the annual Oscar show. Last year's program, with Jon Stewart as host, was the least watched on record, with about 32 million viewers in the United States. The highest rating was 55.3 million in 1998, when the immensely popular "Titanic" won the big prize.
Ultimately, of course, the academy's voting members will decide whether the year's more popular and mainstream offerings make the cut. They will have plenty of artier options, including "Rachel Getting Married," Jonathan Demme's intricate look at a family coping with a drug-addicted daughter played by Anne Hathaway, and "Revolutionary Road," a period romance directed by Sam Mendes and starring Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio. "Slumdog Millionaire," from the director Danny Boyle, and "Milk," directed by Gus Van Sant with Sean Penn in the lead role, are also in the running — all with backing from studio specialty divisions.
Studio Oscar campaigners are largely reluctant to discuss their reasoning and strategies publicly for fear of overreaching with the academy's finicky voters. However, several noted a belief that audiences — weary of economic crisis and political strife — are ready for a dose of fun from the entertainment industry.
"People like to vote for winners, and this year there are box office winners that also exhibit incredible craft," said Amanda Lundberg, a partner at the New York publicity firm 42 West, an Oscar campaign powerhouse.
In that spirit, Disney will open its "Wall-E" campaign with something of a wink, by taking an advertisement that transforms the logo of a famous industry trade paper to read "Variet-E." Warner's campaign for "The Dark Knight" will get a boost from both a Dec. 9 DVD release and an expected rerelease, on both standard and Imax screens, as the awards season peaks in January.
If, as expected, "Iron Man" comes into the awards mix, that will be partly because Paramount recently moved a more conventional prospect, a drama called "The Soloist," into next year and out of contention. That film, which stars Mr. Downey alongside Jamie Foxx, had promised to complicate the studio's life at a time when it saw awards potential for the currently very hot Mr. Downey in three pictures at once.
Meanwhile, those who create the Oscar ceremony — to be shown on Feb. 22 on ABC — are determined this time around to connect with the people, and lots of them.
The academy has lifted a 50-year ban on commercials for coming movies during the Oscar telecast in the hope of creating more of a feeling of "event" television for movie fans by including more splashy ads. Organizers (and ABC's advertising sales staff) are hoping to take a page from the Super Bowl, at which movie studios have often shown exclusive footage of big-budget summer movies to start generating fan interest.
"Not only should the Oscar show celebrate excellence in the movies of the year; we believe it should also celebrate the movies," said Laurence Mark, the producer of the next ceremony, sounding what has become a theme for the year.
An article on Tuesday about efforts by major Hollywood studios to promote their movies for Academy Awards misstated the release date of "Australia," a 20th Century Fox film. It is scheduled to be released in the United States on Nov. 26, not in December.

CBM 169: Exciting games and fascinating analysis
by Nagesh Havanur
1/28/2016 – ChessBase Magazine 169 has 1631 OTB games, of which are 97 are annotated. Particularly interesting for Prof. Nagesh Havanur was the final World Cup duel between Sergey Karjakin and Peter Svidler, who was leading 2-0 and then managed to lose – quite traumatically. The key positions are analysed by GM Mihail Marin, who explains the psychology behind such a turn of events. Review.

The last quarter of 2015 saw fierce battles over the board. In this issue of ChessBase Magazine we find games from the World Cup and European Cup, besides other events like the Poikovsky Tournament.
I was particularly interested to see the final duel between Karjakin and Svidler from the World Cup. As is known, the first two games resulted in the score 2-0 in favour of Svidler. In this magazine Mihail Marin offers detailed annotations to both. He has an interesting explanation to offer for Karjakin's blunder in the second game. Here is the position:
[Event "FIDE World Cup"] [Site "?"] [Date "2015.??.??"] [Round "?"] [White "Karjakin, Sergey"] [Black "Svidler, Peter"] [Result "0-1"] [WhiteElo "2727"] [BlackElo "2762"] [Annotator "Nagesh Havanur"] [SetUp "1"] [FEN "5bk1/3n1rp1/2q4p/8/2BQ4/7P/1R3PP1/6K1 w - - 0 37"] [PlyCount "4"] [EventDate "2015.??.??"] [SourceDate "2015.12.19"] 37.

At the end of his annotations Marin comments: "With hindsight, Karjakin's blunder can be regarded as a non-intentional psychological gambit. Had the game ended in a draw, Svidler might have kept his composure and his minimal advantage on the score table, but facing the perspective to win easier than expected he took a few highly uninspired decisions."
This is at best a debatable point. In fairness to Svidler he was not complacent. "Is it over?" a reporter asked him in the press conference. "No!" he replied. "It will be over only once I get that half a point." He played energetically in the next game presenting his opponent a terrible choice. Either he had to exchange queens and take a draw or take risks and fight. Karjakin courageously chose the latter. As he himself put it later, he thought it would be better to die like a man. So it was. He took appalling risks when he sacrificed his knight on the 25th move. Svidler accepted the sacrifice and blundered twice, first missing a win and then a draw. Here is what happened.

Despair: Peter Svidler in this poignant photo from the Russian Chess Federation news page
So far we have looked at what the computers and commentators found. What about the players themselves? As Svidler revealed in a later interview, he did see 28.Qc3! that pinned almost all Black pieces and won. But after 28…Qf4 or …Qf5 he still had to calculate some variations. Then he saw 28.Rxf2 and everything appeared simple. After 28…Qxe3 29. Rxe3 he would exchange rooks and be a piece up with a knight fork. So when he saw 28…Qh4 he was stunned and was in no frame of mind to cope with the changed scenario. He was still not lost. Reeling under shock he blundered again and capitulated.
The critical variation with 28.Qc3 runs 28…Qf5 29.Rxe8 Nxh3+ 30.Kh2! (30.Qxh3? Qxf1+ 31.Kh2 Qf4+ =) Qxf1 31.Nxd5. Karjakin who offered this variation in an interview days later said, he only saw 30.Qxh3? over the board, and not the subtle 30. Kh2! that won. How many of us would have found it in a tense finale at the World Cup? Both players deserve cheers for their bravura performance and sportsmanship.
The European Team Championship was won by Siberia, the team led by Vladimir Kramnik. In this issue Vlad himself annotates the game with Topalov (his "favourite opponent" as mentioned here with delicious irony).
Among others I found games from the Poikovsky Tournament (won by Korobov and Bologan) interesting. The participation of "old" gladiators, Morozevich and Shirov ("who said we are old?") led to some exciting play. I would have loved to see games from the World Rapid and Blitz Championship here. Hopefully, they would find their way into the next edition of MegaBase
This brings me to other sections of the Magazine. There are eleven opening surveys ranging from the Sicilian to the King's Indian. Among them I would single out Robert Ris' analysis of Sicilian Wing Gambit and Alexey Kuzmin's treatment of a new line in King's Indian Classical Variation.
Apart from these surveys, there are regular exercises in opening traps, middle game tactics and endgame technique. In all, this DVD has 1631 OTB games of which are 97 are annotated. I missed Telechess (column on correspondence chess) in this issue. Perhaps it would be back soon.

Measurement of the intertablet coating uniformity of a pharmaceutical pan coating process with combined terahertz and optical coherence tomography in-line sensing

We present in-line coating thickness measurements acquired simultaneously using 2 independent sensing modalities: terahertz pulsed imaging (TPI) and optical coherence tomography (OCT). Both techniques are sufficiently fast to resolve the coating thickness of individual pharmaceutical tablets in situ during the film coating operation, and both techniques are direct structural imaging techniques that do not require multivariate calibration. The TPI sensor is suitable to measure coatings greater than 50 μm and can penetrate through thick coatings even in the presence of pigments over a wide range of excipients. Due to the long wavelength, terahertz radiation is not affected by scattering from dust within the coater. In contrast, OCT can resolve coating layers as thin as 20 μm and is capable of measuring the intratablet coating uniformity and the intertablet coating thickness distribution within the coating pan. However, the OCT technique is less robust when it comes to the compatibility with excipients, dust, and potentially the maximum coating thickness that can be resolved. Using a custom-built laboratory scale coating unit, the coating thickness measurements were acquired independently by the TPI and OCT sensors throughout a film coating operation. Results of the in-line TPI and OCT measurements were compared against one another and validated with off-line TPI and weight gain measurements. Compared with other process analytical technology sensors, such as near-infrared and Raman spectroscopy, the TPI and OCT sensors can resolve the intertablet thickness distribution based on sampling a significant fraction of the tablet populations in the process. By combining 2 complementary sensing modalities, it was possible to seamlessly monitor the coating process over the range of film thickness from 20 μm to greater than 250 μm.

The 2018 Steam Awards include a wide variety of different nominees for you to choose from this year.
The Steam Awards 2018 nominees have been announced, and there's a wide variety of games you can choose from to crown a winner this year.
The nominees were posted via Steam with a special announcement, with Valve asking the community to cast their votes. Voting will open on December 20 (that's tomorrow), incidentally when the 12th annual Steam Winter Sale begins as well. You can vote in 8 different categories, which include Game of the Year, VR Game of the Year, Labor of Love, and a selection of others as well. If you participate in the vote, you'll be able to collect this year's special set of trading cards as well.
Voting will be open until January 3, with the winners being announced early February 2019.
Steam included a special note regarding the Best Developer category, where it was explained that, since it was a highly-contested category, the list of nominees was expanded to 10. Valve excluded itself from the running as well in a bid to honor the "other awesome developers." Not that Valve has truly released much this year aside from Artifact, but...you know.
Make sure you get your votes in before the polls close!
