Navalized DH-10 LACM
Deployment of Land Attack Cruise Missiles (LACM) on Chinese warships will bring new dimensions to diplomacy in the Asia-Pacific.
Images have surfaced of a naval variant of the DH-10 LACM on a China Navy test vessel. The missile canisters spotted appear to be virtually identical to the land-based variant. This sort of arrangement is reminiscent to the deployment of the BGM-109 Tomahawk on United States Navy surface combatants by way of the MK-143 Armored Box Launcher. The MK-143 enabled vessels such as the Iowa Class Battleships and Spruance Class Destroyers to launch the BGM-109.
The images suggest that the DH-10 would be installed in the same way as the YJ-62 or YJ-83 anti-ship missiles. This is advantageous for the current generation of China Navy surface combatants, giving designs such as the 052C land attack capability with minimal structural modification. However, the downside is that the arrangement would sacrifice anti-ship capabilities by substituting the YJ-62 or YJ-83 systems with DH-10 launchers. It also means that only a maximum of eight missiles can be carried and that is assuming the launch canisters can be stacked on top of one another.
In spite of its disadvantages and simplicity compared to the deployment of vertically launched LACMs by other navies, the adoption of a naval variant of the DH-10 is a considerable capability leap for Beijing. This development would enable China to complete its "cruise missile triad", complementing the already in-service land-based system and the air-launched variant, the CJ-10. Missiles launched from land-based platforms are restricted to striking targets around China's periphery, not so dissimilar to the range limitations faced by the Second Artillery Force's inventory of conventional ballistic missiles. Missiles launched from the air force's H-6 bombers provide more operational flexibility and reach for China's cruise missiles, similar to the way in which the United States Air Force deploys cruise missiles from its bomber fleet. However, without aerial refueling capability and heavy fighter protection, the H-6 is an aircraft restricted to limited regional operations. The bomber's obsolete design, slow speed and its vulnerability to interception are weighing heavily against its potential strategic roles.
The China Navy, on the other hand, is the only branch of the Chinese military capable of projecting limited power far beyond China's shores. While it is debatable whether the China Navy would seek the same sort of global reach as the United States Navy, the possession of ship-launched LACMs would essentially enable Chinese warships to conduct long range precision attacks against land targets around the Indian and Pacific Oceans. The implications are strategic locations that were traditionally distance away from China mainland could now be potentially brought within the firing range of DH-10 armed vessels.
The fact that DH-10 is mounted on a test vessel that has yet sail suggests that it is still very early its development cycle. If the rumored Type 052D destroyer, the successor of the 052C that is reportedly under construction is mounted with DH-10, then a universal vertical launch system for Chinese armed forces is a reality.
It would also be interesting to monitor the future development of an undersea DH-10 systems as arming Beijing's fleet of conventional and nuclear attack submarines with submarine-launched DH-10 missiles will have far reaching implications.

Abstract: Since its establishment in the early 1990s, the conventional missile component of the People's Liberation Army's Second Artillery Force (SAF) has emerged as a centerpiece of China's accelerating military modernization program. The conventional missile force has grown in size and sophistication, and China has developed a doctrine for its employment. Chinese military publications emphasize that it plays an increasingly important role in deterrence and warfighting. In particular, Chinese sources underscore its role in achieving information dominance, air superiority, and sea control as well as countering third-party intervention. China's development of advanced conventional missile capabilities highlights the growing vulnerability of fixed bases and surface ships. Moreover, organizational tendencies, could fuel dangerous escalation. In response to these challenges, the United States must adapt its traditional approach to military operations and deterrence in the Asia-Pacific.
The transformation of the Second Artillery Force (SAF) – the part of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) responsible for most of China's conventional and nuclear ballistic missiles and land-attack cruise missiles (LACM) – is one of the most important elements of Chinese military modernization. China has progressed rapidly from having a limited and vulnerable nuclear ballistic missile capability to having one of the most impressive nuclear and conventional ballistic missile and land-attack cruise missile programs of any nation. This transformation is underscored by the 2010 unclassified report on Chinese military power issued by the US Department of Defense (DoD), which states that "China has the most active land-based ballistic and cruise missile program in the world." …
The remainder of this article consists of five parts. The first reviews the development of China's conventional missile force. The second surveys its emerging doctrine for deterrence and strike operations. The third examines the conventional missile capabilities China is developing and deploying to enable the SAF to implement these force employment concepts. The fourth provides an overview of recent developments in SAF training. The fifth assesses the challenges that China's growing conventional missile force capabilities may pose to the United States and its allies and friends in the Western Pacific and offers recommendations for US planners and policymakers. …

Tray Walker's agent was still just getting to know his new client when the Ravens cornerback was killed in a motorcycle accident in Miami.
On March 17, around 7 p.m. ET 23-year-old Tray Walker called his agent Ron Butler from Miami with a request. "I want to do something really nice for my family before I go back to Baltimore. Do you think you can put together some hotel rooms and help get them down to the beach?" he asked.
It would be their last phone call.
Walker intended to spend the weekend with his inner circle—his mother, his sister and the close friends he considered brothers—enjoying Miami's unique blend of serenity and pulsating fun before heading to Baltimore on Monday and immersing himself earlier than normal into the grind of preparing for an NFL season.
After a disappointing 2015 in which he saw action in just eight games as a rookie out of Texas Southern, Walker was determined to make a sophomore splash. And that was the focus of his relationship with Butler, whom Walker hired last December after being unsatisfied with his previous agent.
Despite their short time working together, Butler's relationship with Walker went much deeper than plotting out a plan for on-field success. It was Falcons running back Devonta Freeman, another client of Butler's, who first recommended Walker last fall. Like Freeman and several other Butler clients, Walker endured an upbringing in the notoriously rough Liberty City section of Miami. Freeman vouched for Walker's persona, making it clear that he was one of the rare few who avoided all the pitfalls.
Butler says Walker was very quiet and low-key but a tremendous human being. The foundation of trust had been built, and the makings of a successful relationship—one in which Butler's reach as a mentor to Walker extended well beyond the playing field—were in progress.
Butler was still learning all the things that made Walker tick—how much he cared about his appearance. How he had a robust sneaker collection, with a particular fondness for Jordans. How he loved cars yet, despite the temptation to start a collection, owned just two: a Dodge Challenger and a Range Rover he purchased a month ago to better navigate snowy Baltimore this season.
Just about three hours after Walker called Butler to plan his family weekend, around 10 p.m. ET, Butler got the fateful call from another client, Colts wideout Phillip Dorsett. "I think Tray's been in an accident." Butler then saw the news all over social media. Walker had been riding a dirt bike in Miami and collided with an SUV. His condition was critical. Butler immediately took off for the hospital, eschewing the on-site media, and just tried to comfort Walker's mother as her son's condition worsened. He was pronounced dead at 5 p.m. the next day.
In the aftermath, Butler recalls an eerily similar call he received in November, when another client, Rams wide receiver Stedman Bailey, was shot in the head and sustained life-threatening injuries. Walker chats regularly with Bailey about his family, his improving health and the slim possibility of an NFL comeback. If only he could do the same with Tray Walker.

Thank you for an excellent article Ron. I take a lot of pride in the quality woodworking tools that I have purchased over the years but increasingly have come to realize that I have just been getting by with my table saw, sliding compound mitre saw, routers, sanders, and electric hand drills. Your article made me realize that I would really benefit from having a Wagner moisture meter, a stand mounted drill press, a jointer, and possibly a planer. Collectively they would represent a substantial investment but purchasing them one piece at a time over say two years would be very manageable. And having learned a lot about all of them from your article made it clear to me that the benefits would be imeasurable.

Conny Perrin bows entry to Australia
The meticulous preparation will unfortunately not have changed anything. In tennis, Conny Perrin lost in the first round of qualifying for the Australian Open. On Tuesday, La Chaux-de-Fonnière was beaten in three sets 6-3 4-6 6-4 by the Swedish Mirjam Bjorklund, 213th player in the world. In this game which still lasted almost 2 hours, Conny Perrin, who ranks 230th in the WTA, was unable to reverse the situation.
In 14 participations, the 31-year-old has never been able to qualify for the final round of one of the four Grand Slam tournaments. His best performance in Australia remains a participation in the 2nd preliminary round. / jha

Occasionally, a wild winter storm can throw Port Appin into darkness as the power goes off. While the twinkling candlelight and roaring log burner create a lovely, romantic atmosphere in the hotel for a while, it's not surprising that after about 24 hours, people's sense of humour and patience tends to run a little thin when the hot water runs out and the bedrooms become a little chilly! However, fear no more if you are guests coming to stay at The Pierhouse in the winter months! We have taken delivery of a lovely new 125 kVA generator courtesy of generator giant - Aggreko.

(rv, there's no implication of either of these things, which makes this entire line baseless speculation)
While never appearing in person, it is implied that the King of Town's [[Parents|mother and/or father]] ruled before him (given that he's called the "Prince of Town"). He ruled at the time [[The Cheat]] first appeared and when Strong Bad and Homestar first met. He seemed to have ruled in the [[Storybook World]] time-period.
It's unclear whether the King in the KoT DVD is the Old King, or whether the Old King is the Decemberween king.
=== Marzipan ===
This article is about the title of the kings. For the characters, see The King of Town and The King of Town (Decemberween).
In the town of Free Country, USA, the main governor is the King of Town. The King's job was mostly revealed in Strong Badia the Free, where he basically watches his kingdom wither and die. The King's throne is a refrigerator, and most, if not all, of the ways the king spends his time is by eating, bathing in or obsessing over food.
There are two ways to become king: either inheriting it (as hinted in flashback by the current King of Town once being the Prince of Town) or by seizing the throne through a coup d'état as seen multiple times in Strong Badia the Free. Once king, however, the amount of power one has is debatable. While the current King of Town has servants and has shown some authority, his peoples' lack of respect for him weakens his position. It is apparently legal to sell "Death to the King" memorabilia, as Bubs once did, so there is no direct control on civilians. Therefore, one may conclude the King has limited power.

1.2 King Strong Bad

2.2 Marzipan

2.4 The Twelve Kings of Town
Known Kings
The Current King
The fat-thority himself!
See King of Town
The King of Town we know, known only as such or "Wad" in Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 15.2, is the current king. He seemingly grew up from being the Prince of Town, if we can believe Strong Bad's retelling. His weightiness was implied to have come from eating a lifetime supply of fish-sticks, which may explain the reason food is so important to being King.
The King's rule was taken from him by Strong Bad in Strong Badia the Free. After Strong Bad denounced the King's rule, he became temporarily known as simply "The Of Town". This was later revealed to have been the King trying to get someone else to get the job, however, Strong Bad later found he himself hated the job and later tricked the King into taking it back. Upon seeing the trickery involved, however, the King sadly accepted his job. (If one talks to the King in Extended Play, he will actually try to trick Strong Bad back into the throne.)
King Strong Bad
"Who knew being King of Town could suck so many eggs?"
See Strong Bad
Strong Bad, upset with being unscrupulously taxed and violently put under house arrest, decided he was fed up with the King, and began a rebellion on the castle. Throughout Strong Badia the Free, in which the rebellion went on, he expanded the empire of Strong Badia by annexing other rebellions. Once he had control of all the lands he needed, he attacked the castle, leading with "Col-o-nel" Homestar Runner of the Homestarmy.
After capturing the castle, he succumbed to great boredom. He was not allowed to check his email or play video games, and he was under constant surveillance and annoyance by Homestar, Strong Mad, and Strong Sad. He was under heavy stress, and eventually decided to quit. He was not allowed to leave the castle, but that did not stop him from remotely leading a rebellion led by the old King of Town himself. Once the Of Town returned, Strong Bad willingly surrendered and returned home.
King Strong Bad did not prove to be very popular. Marzipan decided to protest him and all he stood for, and Bubs sold Death to King Strong Bad souvenirs, which proved worthless after the old King took over.
The King of Town (Decemberween)
"Famine has ruined all the town's gold!"
See The King of Town (Decemberween)
This king ruled in the time of the first Decemberween, and had the Popular Vote as his companion. This King of Town may or may not be the current one.
Other Royalty of Town
The Old King of Town
While never appearing in person, it is implied that the King of Town's mother and/or father ruled before him (given that he's called the "Prince of Town"). He ruled at the time The Cheat first appeared and when Strong Bad and Homestar first met. He seemed to have ruled in the Storybook World time-period.
Princess Marzi.
Marzipan was first intended to be the King of Town's daughter on the Old Characters Page. Therefore, she was Princess of Town. This concept has since been abandoned (save for a message in Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 17.2), and she herself has denied being the King's daughter.
Strong Bad's Mom
Out of ignorance, Homestar mistakenly refers to Strong Bad's mom as being a king of town in Strong Badia the Free. Whether this means women can have the title of "King" and not "Queen" is debatable.
The Twelve Kings of Town
In original, it was stated by Strong Bad that there have been "like twelve King of Towns". This may mean that the actual king was replaced, or just the "actor" who plays him, or even if this is just made up. Their graves were seen in an Easter egg, though this may have been a dream sequence. If they did exist, this means there must have been an Onion King of Town, much akin to Onion Bubs.

New alliance in the making for LS elections in Telangana
Unlike in last years Assembly elections in Telangana, the CPI and CPIM have decided to forge an alliance for the Lok Sabha polls in the state
Hyderabad: Unlike in last year's Assembly elections in Telangana, the CPI and CPI(M) have decided to forge an alliance for the Lok Sabha polls in the state. Leaders of the two Left parties met here on Saturday and it was agreed to contest the Parliamentary elections unitedly, CPI(M) State secretary Tammineni Veerabhadram told PTI.
In the December 7, 2018 Assembly elections, CPI was part of the Congress-led alliance, "Prajakutami" (People's Front) which also had the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and the Telangana Jana Samiti (TJS) as its partners. The CPI(M) had fought the elections then under the banner "Bahujan Left Front" with several smaller parties.
Veerabhadram said the CPI has also agreed to include BLF partners in the alliance for the Lok Sabha polls due by May. Sources in the two Left parties said the CPI already had a discussion with TJS on its inclusion in the alliance. Sources claimed Jana Sena led by actor-turned-politician Pawan Kalyan or the TDP led by Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu are likely to join the alliance.
"CPI is interested to get TDP on board for the Lok Sabha elections, and not Jana Sena. CPI(M)'s view is: better to ally with Pawan Kalyan, and not TDP," they said. CPI and CPI(M) leaders would again meet later this week to discuss issues on alliance, sources said.

Marrying Christopher by Michele Paige Holmes
4 min137 October 13, 2015 by Mylissa
I loved the first two books in this trilogy, and could not wait to get my hands on Christopher's story. He is a real character, and knowing a bit what twists this book might take, I was hoping for a great conclusion to this saga. Boy did Miss Holmes deliver!!!
Having seen both his sisters Grace and Helen happily married, Christopher Thatcher is free to pursue his dream of life in America. With adventure in his heart and mind, he boards one of the first steamships set to cross the Atlantic in the record breaking time of only twenty-five days. Within the first two of those, his resolve—to avoid women and the complications they often bring to a man's life—falters when he meets Marsali Abbott, a young woman with a past even more troubling than his own. Whether from years of habit protecting his sisters, or simply because he feels drawn to Marsali, Christopher chooses to help her and becomes her friend. As the truth about what awaits Marsali in America becomes evident, he is faced with a more difficult choice, one that will impact their lives far beyond four weeks together at sea.
This book had a slightly different feel than the first two books in the series, as it starts of on a great journey towards a new beginning for Christopher. We see him saying goodbye to Grace and Helen, and it is a sad goodbye indeed!
As Christopher sets of on his great adventure, he is determined to start anew, in a place where the name Thatcher does not drag along all the unfortunate disaster he has had to deal with his whole life. He is also set on not having to rescue anyone, but think of himself for a change. All of that changes almost instantly, as his is introduced to Miss Marsali Abbott even before the ship sets sail for America. Instead of having a carefree crossing, he is troubled with worry over Miss Abbott's lot once she sets foot on American soil. His instincts kick in, and he soon realises he cannot continue dennying the blosseming attraction he feels for Miss Abbott.
Together with the captain he comes up with a great plan to help Marsali, but tragedy hits harder than anyone could suspect, and they are torn apart.
What follows is an unravelling of events in which fate seems to play a horrible trick on Marsali and Christopher. Yet their undying love an devotion to each other migh just be strong enough to conquer all.
Christopher is a colourful character. He is full of spirit, yet a real gentleman. He has gone through so much, but come out with such humour, love, devotion, and depth. He is a real catch, even if he has a hard time seeing it himself. His undying dedication to Marsali is what every woman dreams of, and had me rooting for their HEA throughout the whole book.
Marsali is a wonderful lady. She reminds me of Grace in certain ways, yet she is her own unique self. She has buckets full of spunk, is quick with her comebacks, keeps Christopher on his toes at all times, yet she has the poise and elegance of a true lady. I loved her frankness and kindness. She was someone I could truly relate to.
The supporting cast were really great. They were very divers, and added such a great dimension to the story. Often times you can read a book and find the supporting characters to be boring, underdeveloped, or to involved in the story. Miss Holmes gave just enough attention to make them important, yet didn't take any of the main attention away from what really mattered. I found it a great mix.
I loved having another dose of Grace and Nicholas and Helen and Samuel. They are true favourites, and parting with all at the end of the book was hard for me. I have grown to love these characters, and will miss them greatly. As with good friends, I'm sure I will revisit them often in the future. I'm excited to see which works Miss Holmes will release in the future.
Michele Paige Holmes spent her childhood and youth in Arizona and northern California, often curled up with a good book instead of out enjoying the sunshine. She graduated from Brigham Young University with a degree in Elementary Education, and found it an excellent major in which to indulge her love of children's literature.
Her first novel, COUNTING STARS (Covenant Communications 2007), won the 2007 Whitney Award for best romance. The sequel, a romantic suspense titled, ALL THE STARS IN HEAVEN (Covenant 2009), was a Whitney finalist, as was her first historical romance, CAPTIVE HEART (Covenant 2011). MY LUCKY STARS (Covenant 2012) completed the Stars series.
In October 2014 Michele launched the Hearthfire historical romance line with the publication of SAVING GRACE (Mirror Press 2014). The companion novel, LOVING HELEN (Mirror Press 2015) was released in February 2015. A third book about this same family, MARRYING CHRISTOPHER, will be published in summer 2015, with another historical to follow later this year.
Michele has been a member of the same critique group for over fifteen years and feels that joining a critique group is the single best thing an author can to do help improve his or her writing. She has been a member of RWA and URWA, LDStorymakers, and The League of Utah Writers. Michele enjoys both attending and teaching at conferences.
When not reading or writing romance, Michele is busy with her full time job as a wife and mother. She and her husband live in Utah with their five high maintenance children and a Shitzu that resembles a teddy bear, in a house with a wonderful view of the mountains.

Theatre IV revives "The Wizard of Oz" in high style. | Miscellany | Style Weekly - Richmond, VA local news, arts, and events.
Theatre IV revives "The Wizard of Oz" in high style.
If you want a sterling example of everything theater aspires to be, check out the revival of "The Wizard of Oz," currently playing on Theatre IV's Empire Theatre stage. Director Steve Perigard starts with the bulletproof appeal of the movie classic then adds several purely theatrical touches to come up with a razzle-dazzling production, full of charm and wit, and boasting boss performances by Dorothy and her crew. If Perigard's reach sometimes exceeds his grasp, he still deserves hearty praise for trying and succeeding more often than not.
First off, this production looks great. Scenic designer Brad Boynton has constructed handsomely detailed alternate realities, from the plain grandeur of the Kansas prairie to the multi-tiered whimsy of Munchkinland. No landscape along the yellow brick road gets short shrift; the road itself even lights up. And costumer Thomas Hammond has outfitted the large cast with fanciful get-ups, taking particular care to make each Munchkin a sparkling clash of primary colors.
But, as easy on the eyes as "Oz" is, it wouldn't pass muster without a capable cast of performers. Petrina Jones channels Judy Garland with her performance as Dorothy, a timorous quiver in her squeals of "Auntie Em." And she's no slouch of a singer, either, with her "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" hitting all the right notes. As the Scarecrow, Robert Throckmorton is an exceptional collection of loose joints. But the actor brings much more than fancy footwork to the role. His straw man projects a steady self-assurance that makes him the backbone of this crew.
Scott Wichmann plays the Cowardly Lion with nice comic timing and Cliff Todd infuses the Tinman with a glow of real warmth. As the Wicked Witch, Jan Guarino has a convincing cackle and gets as much mileage out of her character's one dimension as possible. Even Toto (played by Taco) delivers an admirable performance, handling a large amount of stage time with aplomb and nailing Dorothy with well-timed wet kisses throughout the show.
Providing a rich background is a splendid score orchestrated by two musical directors, Paul Deiss and Brian Lucas. As with everything in this production, the raw material is pure gold. Still, Deiss and Lucas add luster by bringing into the light lesser-known facets, like the haunting little melody for "Poppies" performed as the Emerald City comes into sight.
Where Perigard tries a bit too hard is in trying to replicate nearly everything that was in the cinematic version of the "Wizard." The tornado scene is imaginatively staged but doesn't quite work. When Dorothy is abducted, we get one flying monkey. Without the swarm that the movie offers, why even bother? A menacing horde of land-based simians would be more effective.

Jeanne Ives Asks 'What's Offensive?' About 'Provocative' Campaign Ad
Amanda Vinicky | February 5, 2018 7:48 pm
Gov. Bruce Rauner's challenger, state Rep. Jeanne Ives, R-Wheaton, says she's been surprised by the "hysteria" surrounding an inflammatory ad her campaign released Friday. It's not the friendly introductory spot you may have seen during one of the Super Bowl's commercial breaks on Sunday, but a 30-second commercial that mockingly thanks Rauner for signing laws that Ives says betray the tenants of the Republican Party.
But some of Ives's own supporters, including Rep. David McSweeney, R-Barrington Hills, have called for her to take it down, as have prominent Republicans who are allied with Rauner, like state GOP chairman Tim Schneider.
"There is no place in the Illinois Republican Party for rhetoric that attacks our fellow Illinoisans based on their race, gender or humanity," Rauner said in a statement. "Representative Ives' campaign ad does not reflect who we are as the Party of Lincoln and as proud residents of our great and diverse state. She should pull down the ad and immediately apologize to the Illinoisans who were negatively portrayed in a cowardly attempt to stoke political division."
Other critics have called it xenophobic, racist and homophobic.
"I don't know why people are so offended by it," Ives said Monday at the City Club of Chicago. "What's offensive about the ad? The ad is a policy ad. That's what it is. It's an accurate depiction of the policies that Rauner put in place. I mean, look, I talk about it on the stump, my literature has all these issues laid out there. The fact that you saw a visual representation of the policies he put in place is maybe considered offensive. I don't understand that. There's, that's exactly … the fat-cat Exelon guy, that's exactly who we bailed out. Hello. The teacher from Chicago Public Schools, that's whose pension you just bailed out. The transgender man, that's exactly what typically a transgender man looks like."
A political consultant who backs Democrats, Dave Lundy, piped up from the audience: "No it's not."
The ad features a man speaking in a low voice, who has a five o'clock shadow and is wearing a dress. He sarcastically "thanks" Rauner for "signing legislation that lets me use the girl's bathroom."
Ives says she had no trepidation in airing the ad, and says while it's "provocative" and "edgy" she was somewhat surprised by the "hysteria" over it.
The public fray has largely veered away from the actual policies raised in the ad.
The law affecting transgender individuals that Rauner signed doesn't dictate who can and can't use a particular bathroom; rather, it makes it easier for someone to change the sex on his or her birth certificate. Previously, that required transition surgery. Now, a doctor can sign off on other procedures, like hormone therapy.
The sanctuary state law, officially known as the Trust Act, says that police cannot detain someone based solely on immigration status. Ives says the law puts Illinoisians in danger, but members of law enforcement signed off on the law and say it's codifying current practice.
Rauner himself, who has refused to go up against Ives in a televised debate, has largely stayed out of the fray, with the campaign initially avoiding direct comment on it before spokesman Will Allison saying in an email, "this TV ad has no place in Illinois. It just shows how unelectable Representative Ives really is."
Ives recently received $2 million from arch-conservative mega-donor Richard Uihlein, of the Uline packaging giant, adding to the $500,000 he'd previously contributed to her campaign. It's funding that will allow Ives to keep the ad on air.
Ives says she believes the ad will help her to gain supporters.
It may well give her a boost: She's clearly getting major publicity as she works to garner statewide name recognition beyond the borders of the suburban district she's represented in the Illinois House since 2013.
But arguably, the ad speaks most to the conservatives who were already backing her, while turning off moderate Republicans who had been looking for an alternative to Rauner.
Although polls show her trailing the governor, if she were to beat him in the primary, the ad is sure to be an albatross in the general election.

« D'un Casier à l'autre… un nouveau Standard » ("From one Casier to another… a new Standard" – TN.) is a D'Days festival exhibition at Cassina.
Designer, interior architect and Camondo teacher Marie-Christine Dorner was asked to gather some of her former students and now alumni around a workshop which took place in March 2017. Drawn from Le Corbusier & Pierre Jeanneret's LC Casiers Standard Cabinet, the project's aim was to question the notion behind the word "standard" by reinventing a piece of furniture through a unique and personal perception. The 8 projects designed by Kristina Chrastilova, Grégory Chrétien, Pierre-Adrien Dumoulin & Eléonore Satger, Constance Frapolli, Lara Grand, Xavier Martin, Pauline Masson and Marc-Antoine Voisin were exhibited at Cassina's brand new showroom, Rue de Turenne.

Wizards of the Coast (appelé aussi « WotC » ou « Wizards ») est un éditeur de jeux américain ancré dans des univers heroic fantasy et science-fiction. À l'origine, éditeur de jeux de rôles uniquement, Wizards of the Coast a popularisé le genre du « jeu de cartes à collectionner » (JCC) au début des années 1990 avec le très célèbre Magic : l'Assemblée. Aujourd'hui la société continue d'éditer des jeux de rôles, des jeux de société, des jeux de cartes à collectionner ainsi que des livres d'heroic fantasy.

Histoire
Wizards of the Coast a été fondée par Peter Adkison en 1990 dans la périphérie de Seattle et est, aujourd'hui encore, installée à Renton. Dans un premier temps, la société ne publia que des jeux de rôle comme Everway, Talislanta... Mais sa véritable renommée ne fut acquise qu'à la Gen Con d'août 1993 lorsqu'elle présenta un jeu de cartes à collectionner créé par  Richard Garfield, Magic : l'Assemblée. Le succès progressif de ce jeu permit à la société de croître et de s'installer dans ses propres locaux. Wizards of the Coast, d'ailleurs détenteur du brevet d'invention 5662332 sur les JCC aux États-Unis, a aussi publié d'autres jeux de cartes à collectionner à succès par la suite.

En 1997, Wizards of the Coast rachète la société TSR et est alors le distributeur de Donjons et Dragons puis devient une filiale du géant du jeu Hasbro en 1999.
Wizards of the Coast a également possédé pendant plusieurs années la chaîne de magasins The Game Keeper.

Dans les années 2000, Wizards of the Coast commercialise le Jeu de cartes à collectionner Pokémon dérivé de la franchise Pokémon créée par Nintendo. Ce jeu devient dans les années suivantes l'une des plus grosses franchises de cartes à collectionner. Wizards of the Coast assure cette gamme pendant plusieurs années avant que Nintendo ne reprenne la licence et ne devienne également propriétaire du jeu de cartes.

En , Wizards of the Coast annonce la fermeture des magasins The Game Keeper pour se concentrer sur la fabrication de jeux. Les magasins sont fermés durant l'été 2004.

En 2019 et 2020, Wizards of the Coast And Digital Gaming a fait plus de profits que la branche jouets de Hasbro. Le chiffre d'affaires est de 761,2 millions de dollars en 2019 et de 906,7 millions en 2020, le jeu de cartes Magic: L'Assemblée représentant 23 % des ventes et le jeu de rôle Donjons et Dragons 23 %.

Black History Month is an annual celebration of achievements and a time for recognizing the central role of African Americans in U.S. history.
This week the spotlight shines the light on a mother, alumna Natalie Daise (2014 Graduate M.A. Creativity Studies) and daughter, Sara Daise (M.A. History & Culture student) who are using their creative skills and education gained through UI&U to honor the past and create the future in the Q&A below.
Q. What is your course of study and why did you choose it?
A. I'm studying Afrofuturism as a tool for addressing and healing generational trauma in Africana women.
A. There are many definitions. But I see Afrofuturism as a way of exploring and celebrating the existence of Black people through time. It's about imagining a free, safe and empowered future. It is the recognition that we are the future that our ancestors dreamed, and our power and responsibility to create the future for our descendants.
Q. How did you come to this study?
A. I'm a public historian. During my work as a historic interpreter at McLeod Plantation, in Charleston, SC and at The Slave Dwelling Project, and as an archivist with the Real Black Grandmothers, a project that is creating a digital archive of the remarkable and diverse experiences of black grandmothers and their grandchildren from past to present.
Q. Who is a big influence in your life?
A. During this study I discovered the work of Malidoma Some, a West African scholar and mystic. His life work is Afro-futurism in practice, not just in theory. He writes a lot about presence — about being present. He states that it is within the present that the past and future meet. I am so inspired by his work and encouraged to practice presence even in the midst of chaos and crazy.
Q. How do you envision your work in the world when you finish your degree?
A. I want to create programs, materials and experiences that help others develop the tools that make our vision of the future — in which we are free, fearless, safe and whole — become the reality.
Q. Why did you pick Union?
A. My mother did her M.A. at Union and she suggested it. This program has allowed me the freedom to tailor my curriculum and study what I'm interested in. I am able to be myself in this program. I've found the professors extremely supportive and willing to give honest feedback. I've learned so much!
Q. What surprised you most about this journey?
A. I love citations! In undergrad they were a burden and I just didn't get it. But I've come to see Bibliographies like maps that share the writer's journey and provide breadcrumbs for others to follow. And it's an honor to add my own work to the trail.
Q. Since the present is the place where the past and the future come together, what can you tell your 18-year-old self?
Q. What do you call yourself? How would you describe yourself and your work?
A. I call myself a Creative Catalyst. Most of the work that I do has to do with empowering others to be more creative — whether that's in terms of interpreting their own experience, or in using creative tools to brainstorm, solve problems, or improve the quality of their lives. I'm in love with the creative process and I want others to identify that within themselves. I want people to walk away from anything that I do recognizing their own creativity.
Q. Do you consider yourself a leader?
A. A leader is generally someone that others follow, right? I guess anyone who is able to be a catalyst for action, or facilitate a process of growth or discovery is a leader. And in that way, I am. People and groups that I work with are able to use my guidance to facilitate positive change. As an independent contractor, I work in many different environments. With early childhood educators and students, for example, I work with them to bring creativity in the process of their classrooms. I might work with church groups on developing community. If I'm working with a group on diversity or inclusion, I might help them find creative ways to look beyond "the other" and see themselves.
Natalie Daise in Gullah Gullah Island, a TV show based on the Gullah Geechee culture which was passed on by enslaved West Africans who were brought to this country.
I suppose I'm more of a servant leader. I'm not a directive leader unless that's what's called for. I adapt my techniques to the situation and environment. I have mastery in the ability to make connections—both for large groups and individuals. I can hear and see clearly what is there, and I have the skills to help others see it as well. I can say that I most definitely have mastery in the use of story to direct and shape experiences.
Q. As an alum, talk about your long relationship with UIU.
A. I actually received my undergraduate degree from the ADP at Vermont College in 1992—Vermont College was later absorbed by UIU. I laugh at the evolution of distance-learning programs. At Vermont, every semester we did do some residency in Montpelier, Vermont. Our class discussion, peer-feedback, and inter-library loans were all sent via snail mail. A lot has changed!
My undergraduate thesis explored the healing power of story. I went into the program with the intent to focus on history. I wanted to get the academy's validation to continue the historical and cultural preservation work my husband I were already doing. I thought a degree would help me call myself a historian without flinching.
Prior to this experience, my view on education was basically "get a degree you can sell." An education existed as a marketable commodity. It was in that program, however, that I kept hearing people talk about "following their passion." I had never ever thought about education as it pertained to my passion. I was intrigued. For the first time I thought of education as something one does for oneself as well. And so I switched to a writing focus.
Q. Are there connections between your undergraduate and graduate theses?
A. As an undergrad I was really interested in the power of story to heal and connect. I read amazing writers, mostly women of color, who were also healers, activists, organizers, and influencers. I was interested in how they used writing as a tool for their work. I was a professional storyteller prior to this research. But after that, I approached story differently. Stories are real things. Everything is story! When we change the story, change the narrative, we change the perception. The story tells us who we are as a country. The story tells us who we are as women. The story tells us who we are as individuals. What stories are we telling about ourselves? About each other? Which stories have shaped our belief system?
When I went back to graduate school to study the process of creativity, I went in with the question of 'Becoming.' In many ways creativity is the process of becoming. It's that process by which an idea becomes a thing. The process by which we move from one phase of something to another. Whether that idea becomes a painting, or a building, or a person. And there's a story about that.
I actually came across my undergraduate thesis about 20 years later as I worked on my graduate thesis. And I was surprised to see how my undergraduate work had led me in this direction and the connections between my interest in story and in creativity.
Q. What was your process like studying Creativity?
My thesis was very personal. It was an exploration of women artists of color in the Charleston, SC and how their creativity impacted their communities. I called the study "Rag Quilts and Collard Greens." It felt important to study the interaction of creativity and community. So often, traditional arts are considered non-creative. Quilting, for instance, is considered just a necessity. You know, something women did at night with scraps. But I looked at the Gee's Bends quilts and I thought, "Yes these women were in extreme poverty. And yes, these quilts kept them warm. And these quilts are also brilliant, and beautiful, and played a role in community survival. They were more than functional. They filled a need to create. Hopefully my thesis work adds to the dialogue and maybe others will begin to look at creativity in a way that explores other avenues. It's really great to read what "the great men" have said about creativity. But that's not the only story. Once again, who's telling the story? I want to add to the narrative.
Q. How do you see your time and work at Union impacting your creative work post-graduation?
Everything changed. But during the grad program my visual art evolved by leaps and bounds, particularly in terms of how I tell stories with my art. And I will say that graduate school has obviously given me the credentials to back up the work that I do. This is the work of my heart, but it's nice to say, "you should listen to me because I have a graduate degree in this process." That's important.
I've always been fascinated by the evolution of becoming. Even before I did my undergrad. But I didn't think that how my mind worked, and what was interesting to, me was important to the world. That my passion was important. And yet, it is for me the most important thing. Going through this educational process has validated my uniqueness. And when I take this passion out into the world it has an impact on other people, I love that.
A. I've recently developed a program called "Art is a Problem I Can Solve." It's about using our creative tools and skills to address our challenges. And there are many different ways to do that. I love facilitating hands-on creativity workshops in which we use art-making and apply the process to whatever the situation or challenge may be.
I am also working on a project with my daughter, Sara, in which we use story, ritual, and our own dialogue to explore multigenerational sharing and how we create ritual that we can pass on and create for the future.
And I continue to grow as a visual artist. I started working on The Collard Green series in 2013 while writing my graduate thesis. More than 25 paintings later I may have completed it. Wow. I can't believe I just said that! I may have come to the end of the series. My visual art has continued to unfold and I follow it. More collard greens might pop up. But I don't want to feel like they have to be there.
Q. I know as a Black storyteller, your work is often heavily requested during Black History Month. Can you talk about the relevance of your work beyond February?
My history as a Black woman is everyone's history. I'll always be a Black woman. But I don't know that if that's the most important thing about me. Yes, it impacts my experience in the world. I love all my beautiful brown-ness. But I hope that what happens when I give a talk, or facilitate a workshop, or when I tell stories—I hope that we see in each other our humanity. That's what I hope. That's my desire always.
Q. What would you tell 20-year-old Natalie?

Hundreds Gather In Collingswood To Remember Orlando Shooting Victims
By Rahel Solomon June 15, 2016 at 12:06 am
Filed Under:Orlando Mass Shooting, Rahel Solomon
COLLINGSWOOD, N.J. (CBS) — All of the victims of the mass shooting in Orlando were remembered in South Jersey on Tuesday night. A vigil was held in Collingswood, Camden County.
Collingswood actually has one of the largest LGBT communities in South Jersey. On Tuesday, hundreds of people showed up to support one another in Collingswood, while remembering the victims in Orlando.
The names read on Tuesday are names that most in Collingswood can only associate with this massacre. The events of the weekend were enough to bring many in attendance to tears while others were still in shock.
"I love everybody," said Jessica Stewart of Bellmawr, N.J. "I feel just so much for their families and their friends."
Authorities believe that Pulse nightclub was targeted because it was a popular gay club.
Jim DeSimone of PFLAG, part of the National LGBT Activism Group, says that Orlando highlights the need for more understanding. "I think we have no choice but to stand up for equal rights. We're all human beings. We all deserve that dignity, respect, the love. We're all the same underneath."
All 49 names were read during the vigil. Many at the vigil did not know the names personally, but know they share in the struggle for tolerance; a struggle that they say transcends city lines and goes beyond state borders.
"It's tragic that something like this still happens in this country in this day and age," said John Loesch.

Fire tornado spotted in Northern California wildfire
ByRichard Moran
August 17, 2020 —
A rare and fiery tornado was spotted Saturday near a fire in Northern California.
The National Weather Service Office issued a tornado warning for a pyrocumulonimbus cloud that formed by the Loyalton Fire, saying it was "capable of producing a fire-induced tornado and outflow winds in excess of 60 mph."
A pyrocumulonimbus cloud forms above intense rising heat, typically from a fire or volcano. Fire tornadoes are created when the rising heat from a fire pulls in smoke, fire and dirt, creating a rotation vortex above the blaze, Brink said.
Fire tornadoes can be massive and deadly. In 2018, one in Redding claimed the lives of a firefighter and bulldozer driver battling the Carr Fire. When the National Weather Service surveyed the damage on that firenado, it determined it was equivalent to an EF-3 tornado with winds in excess of 143 mph.
Officials in California, Oregon and Colorado are battling a series of wildfires that have collectively torched more than 100,000 acres — and things could get worse with intense heat descending on much of the US.
The Loyalton Fire has burned 20,000 acres in the Tahoe National Forest near California's border with Nevada. and was 5% contained by early Sunday. It's burning east of the town of Loyalton.
