On July 23, 2016, Santa Clarita was hit with the devastating Sand Fire that spread rapidly and called for an urgent evacuation of thousands of homes, people and their animals. Many animal sanctuaries and horse owners had to evacuate because the fire was quickly approaching. As the wind changed directions, so did the fire and it headed straight towards The Monte Verde Ranch and their 140 horses, along with The Wildlife Way Station, who's 450 wild and exotic animals had to be safely evacuated. Just a few of the many sanctuaries who had to evacuate all of their rescued animals.
As the fire continued to grow and more animals were in desperate need of evacuation, colleges, sanctuaries, animal control centers and shelters began opening their doors and allowing animals who needed temporary homes to be boarded at their facilities, ensuring their safety.
After several daunting days, the fire was 100% contained, leaving 38,346 acres of land that burned in its path. The animals who were brought to temporary boarding facilities have been transported back home safely.

Most investors expect EU recession – survey
Some 86% of those polled said they expected the EU to suffer a recession within the year
© AFP / Joel Saget
Some 86% of global investors predict the EU will enter a recession within the year, according to a survey of fund managers conducted by Bank of America and published on Tuesday. The figure represents a stark increase from last month, when just 54% of respondents made a similar prediction.
The asset managers' gloomy forecast wasn't limited to the bloc, however. A record 79% of respondents with $800 billion assets under management expect the entire world's economy to weaken over the course of the year. Half of those suggested the suffering would be serious enough to be classed as a recession.
Among European respondents, 70% said "demand destruction" – a situation in which skyrocketing prices cause individuals and businesses to avoid spending their money – would dominate the financial character of the next few months. They argued this would cut inflation – currently sitting at a record 8.6% for the year up to June – while encouraging central bankers to raise interest rates.
Recession risk warning issued for top Western economies
The poll also revealed a shift in opinion regarding central bankers, who were named by 32% of respondents last month as the primary risk to financial markets. This month, only 17% pointed to central bankers as the cause of the continent's economic misfortunes.
Should the European Central Bank move forward with efforts to cut inflation by raising interest rates, it would be the first rate hike in over 10 years. While some countries – such as the Baltic states with high inflation – have pushed the central bank to hike rates by 50 basis points, ECB President Christine Lagarde has suggested it would move more gradually, increasing rates by 25 points in July and then upping them further in September if inflation remained at unsustainable levels.
However, she more recently acknowledged there were "clearly conditions in which gradualism would not be appropriate" in which the bank should "withdraw accommodation more promptly to stamp out the risk of a self-fulfilling spiral."

Manuel González Savín, más conocido como Cañita Brava, (Las Jubias, La Coruña; 2 de marzo 1946) es un artista cómico-musical español.

Saltó a la fama a comienzos de la década de 1990, con canciones como La pichina, El fugitivo, O caldo de María, Twist esa chica, Espikinllú o Los invasores, además de otros temas como Canción en chino, Canción en ruso o El indio cheiroco, en los que utiliza una particular mezcla de expresiones cómicas pretendidamente tomadas de varios idiomas. Sus primeras apariciones fueron en el programa El semáforo junto a José Failde. Posteriormente ha colaborado en las películas de Santiago Segura, Torrente, el brazo tonto de la ley, Torrente 3: El protector, Torrente 4, Torrente 5 y Sin rodeos, así como en el cortometraje Estación de carretera.

Biografía

Inicios
Natural de Las Jubias, vecino de Los Castros, en la ciudad de La Coruña. Antes de dedicarse al mundo de la farándula, Cañita trabajaba en el muelle de su localidad natal. Tras algunas apariciones de ámbito local, Cañita tuvo su primera oportunidad en el programa televisivo de RTVE El semáforo, presentado por Jordi Estadella y la vedette francesa Marlene Morreau.

A la primera aparición de Cañita en TVE (en la que no interpretó canción alguna, limitándose su intervención a relatar a modo de parodia la retransmisión del legendario España-Malta) le sucedieron muchas otras, en las que el coruñés no se limitaba a componer y cantar, ampliando su repertorio con coreografías, chistes, polifonía y vestuario. Muestras de ello se encuentran en su versión de la serie El fugitivo, o la torera "La pota del caldo de María". Otras primeras muestras del artista son "Canción en ruso" o "Ya vienen los pastores", esta última especialmente importante en la carrera televisiva de Cañita, ya que fue la única ocasión en la que un participante de El semáforo volvía por aclamación popular fuera de concurso. "Tengo más de 26 canciones, tengo María Isabel...", asegura en esos momentos "y siempre me quedan las mejores para el final, siempre me pasa igual, al final me quedan las mejores ¿eso como se come?".

Aparición en Torrente
En 1998 dio el salto a la gran pantalla de la mano de Santiago Segura, con un pequeño papel en el éxito de taquilla Torrente: El brazo tonto de la ley, película en la que compartía cartel con actores de la categoría de Tony Leblanc, o el también gallego Manuel Manquiña, Chus Lampreave o el propio Segura. La frase estelar de Cañita –"me debes seis mil pesetas de whisky"-- tuvo tal popularidad que cuando Segura se decide a hacer la tercera parte de la saga de Torrente, le pide a Cañita que vuelva a aparecer interpretando similar línea, esta vez en euros. Pese al rotundo éxito de ambas producciones, lo que fácilmente hubiese podido traducirse en un vehículo fílmico propio (se habló en los medios de una probable película al lado de El Fary y Luixy Toledo, muy al estilo de Levando Anclas), se decanta el gallego por un producto mucho menos ambicioso pero igualmente estimulante.

Posteriormente actúa en el cortometraje Cañita Brava en Los Invasores, una cinta cómica de Serie B, orientada a la ciencia-ficción en clave de humor, y deudor de tramas al estilo FBI o Expediente X, en la que interpreta a un detective, Crime, en misión secreta en búsqueda de una muchacha cuyo paradero se desconoce. Al mismo tiempo pone término a su etapa en el programa Crónicas Marcianas de Javier Sardá en Telecinco, que se retira de la parrilla.

Su agente en la actualidad es el consultor y productor David Rial Montes, encargado de gestionar los conciertos en España de Mika, Gloria Gaynor, Lady Gaga entre otros.

Actualidad
Durante 2007 Cañita Brava colaboró en el programa de Santiago Segura "Sabías a lo que venías" en la cadena española La Sexta, junto a Leonardo Dantés y Luixy Toledo. También realiza shows por toda la geografía ibérica, participando en inauguraciones de discotecas, fiestas diversas (como la Telecogresca en Barcelona, para la cual compuso especialmente el tema Telocrec·ca) donde a sus ya conocidos juegos idiomáticos introduce por primera vez palabras en catalán, como la que da título a la canción y posteriormente incluso llega a dar pregones para festividades locales.

En 2011 intervino en la cuarta entrega de Torrente ("Torrente Lethal crisis"), siendo uno de los pocos actores que ha participado en la saga interpretando siempre al mismo personaje.

Desde el año 2012, interviene semanalmente con su propio espacio "#Conexióncañita", en el programa de actualidad y humor Vaya V de V Televisión. En el cual se conoce el día a día de Cañita Brava y se recorren diferentes lugares de la geografía gallega. Fue el encargado de despedir el año 2012 para la citada cadena, dando su particular visión del popular discurso de su majestad el Rey. Tras el éxito en #conexioncañita, ahora es junto a Iago García el presentador del programa Vaya V de V televisión.

En 2014, participa en el rodaje de la quinta entrega de Torrente, Torrente 5: Operación Eurovegas.

En 2016, participa en el rodaje del reality "Una Chica para Pedre" en el que también colabora en la grabación de la cabecera del mismo junto a su compañero y amigo Leonardo Dantes, "Una Chica para Pedre" es un programa creado por Daniel Iglesias (Indiana) conocido por su paso por programas del grupo Madiaset (Un príncipe para Laura, Hazte un selfi, First Dates...) Cañita Brava es entrevistado por Héctor Arteaga, actor y presentador, el cual es su actual management.

En 2017 actúa en el programa más famoso de citas de la televisión "First Dates mi gran nochevieja" un especial fin de año para Cuatro, cadena del grupo Mediaset España. El showman de Os Castros deleitó a los comensales con "Amiyu", en homenaje a Michael Jackson, entre otros éxitos y composiciones además de acompañar al presentador Carlos Sobera, al que ha bautizado como "Carlos Hoguera".

UNDER CONSTRUCTION
PAWEŁ KUCZYŃSKI MIKOŁAJ CIERLAK WOJCIECH LOSA
Gliwice, Silesia, Poland
You live in a house next to a public square. It's pretty nice, but you hardly notice it any more.
One day, the square is closed off and a crane is erected in one of its corners. The 60 m tall machine towers above the square, swinging its arm over the city centre, imposing its presence throughout the surrounding landscape. Heavy machinery starts whirring tirelessly behind the fence and whenever you pass the site on your way home, you can't help but wonder what the relentless noise will leave behind. Just as suddenly as it began, construction stops. The crane is dismantled, and where was once noise and dust now stands a shiny new building.
You live in a house next to a media centre. It's pretty nice, but you hardly notice it any more.
Why erect a static structure when the process of building it is far more transformative and engaging in itself? By proposing a continuously changing environment, we induce an equally constant positive transformation in the society that inhabits it as well. The minimal addition of a standard construction crane and an array of shipping containers can create countless new scenarios in a space that is left mostly untouched, preserving its familiarity. This superposition of ready-made industrial structures integrates into its new context by housing and complementing the location's existing programmes but remains subversive and transformative through its omnipresent mediascape elements. The constant presence is extended to the entire city by the crane itself, which functions a symbolic marker – the central observation tower of Focault's panopticon. Day and night, far and near. Always present. Always active.
Mediascape Scenario
Functioning as a mediacenter, the structure forms a perforated ring in the centre of the square. It shields users with its introverted spaces, but remains inviting through its position between the square and church entrances as well as fractions of the mediascape displayed on the outside.
Carnival Scenario
The annual religious carnival requires as much space as possible. To accommodate the city's largest event, containers are stacked at the square's rear edge, forming a screen. Together with the crane, it is spatially submissive to the occasion, but narratively active through the displayed mediascape.
Market Scenario
At market time, the containers spread throughout the location to fulfill a variety of functions. Storage for the marketplace, public stage in the square, library by the park.
The crane acts by deploying an array of ten shipping containers in various configurations. They are equipped with bench seating, bookshelves, storage and screens. Some on the outside, some on the inside. Otherwise identical, you never know what you are going to get. The crane and the containers are unified by their common color – a glow-in-the-dark green that asserts their presence in the night.

Clean your fish like a pro!
Imagine that the next time you get ready to clean fish and fillet the meat, that you open your hard shell plastic carrying case and there lies an 8" fillet knife, a 6" fillet knife, a 5" fillet knife with a serrated scaler, an 11 1/2" steel sharpening rod and a cutting board. Well, you don't have to imagine any longer. Our 5-piece fishing knife kit features tools made with 420 stainless steel and green handles with black non-slip rubber inserts that fit neatly into a blow-mold case.


Improving water management is of increasing importance in horticultural operations. A growing global population and changes in water availability will mean that less water will be available for ornamental plant production. There are also a growing number of federal and state regulations regarding water use and runoff from production areas. Better irrigation and fertilization management practices will help to limit the environmental impact of container plant production by limiting the runoff of water and nutrients from nurseries. It will help growers to meet regulations regarding nutrient management and runoff. Reductions in runoff will help improve quality in local ecosystems.
In order to help growers improve their irrigation practices, the current state of nursery production in New England needs to be assessed in order to identify key areas for improvement. Informative materials can then be developed specifically for nursery growers in New England. This information will also help direct future research to help improve irrigation management issues that are identified. More sustainable production techniques will also be taught to the next generation of nursery producers so that they can help implement for sustainable practices as they move out into the industry.
etermine the water requirements of a variety of ornamental plants and how these water requirements are affected by plant size and environmental conditions. Compare irrigation methods (e.g. overhead, spray stakes, drip irrigation, subirrigation) to determine how they affect total water use, plant growth and quality, and runoff water quality. Quantify reductions in water use, leaching, and runoff that result from more efficient irrigation techniques. Develop new and optimize existing methods to provide growers with real time information regarding the water requirements of their crops, including crop water use models and sensor networks that can be easily deployed in greenhouses and nurseries.

This was the commanding view of Portland Harbor and Casco Bay Mrs. Trashpaddler and I enjoyed the past few days. From this vantage point, we watched as ships entered the port, aircraft approached the airport, and a Friday storm blanketed the city with a fresh coat of snow. Throw in a Saturday morning sunrise, some nice views of the waning "Snow Moon", great seafood, several swims (in a hotel pool), some sauna time, seeing a great movie ("The King's Speech"), and you have the ingredients for a simple New England winter getaway. It wasn't exactly tropical but it sure was a nice time!

Where everything is interconnected. It gives a clear understanding that we all are the part of "Great magic Forest".

He was trained to hate until he met the enemy.
Eyal, an Israeli Mossad agent, is given the mission to track down and kill the very old Alfred Himmelman, an ex-Nazi officer, who might still be alive. Pretending to be a tourist guide, he befriends his grandson Axel, in Israel to visit his sister Pia. The two men set out on a tour of the country during which, Axel challenges Eyal's values.


Airline pilots on at least two U.S. flights have reported that an automated system seemed to cause their Boeing 737 Max planes to tilt down suddenly. The pilots said that soon after engaging the autopilot on Boeing 737 Max 8 planes, the nose tilted down sharply. In both cases, they recovered quickly after disconnecting the autopilot.
A Boeing 737 MAX 8 airplane being built for TUI Group sits parked in the background at right at Boeing Co.'s Renton Assembly Plant in Renton, Wash. Britain, France and Germany on Tuesday joined a rapidly growing number of countries grounding the new Boeing plane involved in the Ethiopian Airlines disaster or turning it back from their airspace, while investigators in Ethiopia looked for parallels with a similar crash just five months ago.
As described by the pilots, however, the problem did not appear related to a new automated anti-stall system that is suspected of contributing to a deadly October crash in Indonesia. The Max 8 is at the center of a growing global ban by more than 40 countries following a second fatal crash, this time in Ethiopia, in less than five months. In the U.S., however, the Federal Aviation Administration and airlines continued to permit the planes to fly.
American Airlines and Southwest Airlines operate the 737 Max 8, and United Airlines flies a slightly larger version, the Max 9. All three carriers vouched for the safety of Max aircraft on Wednesday The pilot reports were filed last year in a data base compiled by NASA. They are voluntary safety reports and do not publicly reveal the names of pilots, the airlines or the location of the incidents.
It was unclear whether the accounts led to any actions by the FAA or the pilots' airlines. In one report, an airline captain said that immediately after putting the plane on autopilot, the co-pilot called out "Descending," followed by an audio cockpit warning, "Don't sink, don't sink!"
The captain immediately disconnected the autopilot and resumed climbing. "With the concerns with the MAX 8 nose down stuff, we both thought it appropriate to bring it to your attention," the captain wrote. "Best guess from me is airspeed fluctuation" due to a brief weather system overwhelming the plane's automation.
The pilots talked it over later, "but can't think of any reason the aircraft would pitch nose down so aggressively," the co-pilot recounted. Preliminary information released by Indonesian investigators suggests they are looking at the possible role of the Max's new automated anti-stall technology as a factor in a Lion Air crash in October shortly after takeoff from Jakarta. Data indicates that the pilots struggled with repeated nose-down commands from the plane before it crashed into the Java Sea and killed 189 people.
However, that anti-stall system — called MCAS for its acronym — only activates if the autopilot is turned off, according to documents Boeing has shared with airlines and the FAA. "That's not to say it's not a problem," American Airlines pilot Dennis Tajer said of the incidents reported to NASA, "but it is not the MCAS. The autopilot has to be off for MCAS to kick in."
A third pilot complained that Boeing had not explained changes to the plane's automation to pilots. "I am left to wonder: what else don't I know?" the pilot wrote. "The Flight Manual is inadequate and almost criminally insufficient."
The FAA declined to comment on the incidents that pilots reported, but said it was not aware of any verified reports of MCAS-related issues in the U.S. American Airlines spokesman Ross Feinstein said the airline has received no reports from pilots about problems with the anti-stall technology. Southwest has said the same thing.
The group, part of the Air Line Pilots Association, added, "It is imperative that pilots refrain from interacting with the media and adding to the sensationalism surrounding these incidents." Concern about the Max's safety seemed to be abating but returned on Sunday when an Ethiopian Airlines Max 8 crashed shortly after takeoff from Addis Ababa, killing all 157 people on board. Again, preliminary data appears to capture a brief and erratic flight. Investigators will analyze information from the planes so-called black boxes in hopes of understanding what caused the accident.


5(a) The word "Player" applies to all those taking part in a game.
5(b) The game shall be played, in the case of the doubles game, by two players a side and in the case of the singles game, by one player a side.
5(c) The side for the time being having the right to serve shall be called the "In" side, and the opposing side shall be called the "Out" side.
7(a) The doubles and men¡¦s singles game consists of 15 points provided that, when the score is 14-all, the side which first reached 14 has the option of "setting" the game to 3. After a game has been "set" the score is called "love-all", and the side which first scores 3 points wins the game. If players choose to "set", the score is no longer called "love-all"; instead the score continues to be called to 17. In either case, the claim to "set" the game must be made before the next service is delivered after the score has reached 14-all.
7(b) The ladies¡¦ singles game consists of 11 points. Provided that when the score is "9-all" the player who first reached 9 has the option of "setting" the game to 3, and when the score is "10-all" the player who first reached 10 has the option of "setting" the game to 2 3.
7(c) A side rejecting the option of "setting" at the first opportunity shall not thereby be debarred from "setting" if a second opportunity arises.
7(d) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above, it is permissible by prior arrangement for only one game to be played and also for this to consist of 21 points, in which case "setting" shall be as for the game of 15 points with scores of 19 and 20 being substituted for 14 respectively.
7(e) In handicap games "setting" is not permitted.
If, inadvertently, the players omit to change ends as provided in this Law at the score indicated, the ends shall be changed immediately when the mistake is discovered, and the existing score shall stand.

With so many details to attend to as a new hotel opens, on-site restaurants may sometimes fail to hit the mark. That isn't the case with Song Garden at Mercure Singapore Bugis. It takes up most of the hotel's second floor and features seven private rooms. The kitchen is run by executive chef Wong Shea Nung, formerly of the highly regarded Fook Lam Moon in his native Hong Kong, and dim sum chef Leung Chi Man, who previously worked at East Ocean Seafood Restaurant Hong Kong. Decked in sophisticated Chinese furnishings and artworks, the interiors of Song Garden set the tone for a refined Cantonese dining experience.
The restaurant was filled with executives when I visited during lunch on a weekday. But even with a relatively lean service team, Song Garden ran like a well-oiled machine. I started with the Wok-fried Carrot Cake with Signature Chilli Sauce ($8.80), which had wok hei and an appetising piquancy though the radish cubes could have been more crisp around the edges.
For lunch, there are 30 dim sum items such as Pan-Seared Otah Siew Mai on Skewers ($6/four pieces) to choose from. The crowd favourite was the Steamed Cheong-fun with Fresh Prawn ($6). The prawns were wrapped with a brittle and light flour layer akin to you tiao, then sheathed in paper-thin rice sheets and doused in a homemade soya sauce.
It's never acceptable to find hair in your food, but I was mollified by how the waitstaff handled the situation when a strand was found in my Lobster with Pumpkin Purée in Hot Stone Pot ($28/person). The waitress apologised profusely before setting the dish aside and serving a replacement portion. The soup itself was a delicious concoction with succulent lobster morsels and infused with the crustacean's sweetness.
The BBQ Pork with Honey Sauce ($18) and Crackling Pork Belly ($12.80) were also well-executed. On the other hand, the Signature Roast Chicken on Bed of Beancurd Skin ($25/half, $50/whole chicken) was forgettable. The Chinese-style pancake, chicken skin and minced chicken layers were too thin for any of the flavours to stand out.
I'd thought that the Crisp-fried Prawns with Laksa Sauce ($28) would be an uninspired riff on wasabi prawns, but was pleasantly surprised – the prawn batter kept its texture even when slathered in an aromatic sauce with laksa leaves. The springy Stir-fried Mashed Fish Noodles with Lobster in Signature Chilli Sauce ($30/person) was also a hit.

Cargo Insights: 'I get no respect!' – Dangerfield or air cargo at LAX?
Brandon Fried, Contributing Editor, U.S. Airforwarders Association
Airports, Features, News
Brandon Fried, executive director of the U.S. Airforwarders Association
The late comedian Rodney Dangerfield made a successful career by making light of his lack of respect from others. After hearing about delays in a long-awaited airport redevelopment project, it's probably safe to say that air cargo stakeholders in Los Angeles now understand how Dangerfield felt. Unfortunately, the additional wait for the cargo facility overhaul will be no joke for the thousands of shippers and forwarders who depend upon the airport to run their businesses.
Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is sometimes referred to as the airport that nobody loves. The facility is the second busiest airfield in the United States, coming second to Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey. A building expansion just before the 1984 Olympics doubled the square footage with revamped terminals, multilevel parking structures, and an upper-level roadway which improved passenger access – but only for a while.
Since that renovation, air travel has increased by more than double, growing from 33 million passengers in 1983 to 85 million per year today. The aging infrastructure is failing to accommodate the increased passenger volume at every stage, from the ad hoc security lines to the uncomfortable waiting areas to the tangle of cars lined up outside.
The increasing frustration and inefficiencies at LAX have not gone unnoticed, however. Enter the Landside Access Modernization Program – a $14 billion initiative that will be one of the most significant public works projects in California history, and will be underway until 2023.
Once complete, passenger improvements should include a people mover that is supposed to accommodate 10,000 riders each hour, with trams pulling into the stations every two minutes. The most extended trip across the airport will take no more than ten minutes. A planned new Metro station will reduce the current gap, as the current closest light rail station is two miles from the terminal. Approximately $760 million in improvements for each terminal promise faster passenger security screening and better atmospherics for people using the airport.

At a recent town hall meeting, cargo stakeholders learned they will now need to wait at least two more years before the planned cargo redevelopment will begin. When combined with the necessary bidding, environmental impact and stakeholder assessment processes, the wait may even exceed five years before the first facility opens. As a result, any organization using LAX for cargo shipping must continue to rely on a patchwork of old and inefficient cargo facilities scattered around the airport.
Airfreight volumes show a flattening in past months. But in 2018, LAX's world ranking for cargo operations jumped two spaces, making it number 10 for the most cargo tonnage processed. Every day, more than 1,200 flights carrying cargo arrive and depart from LAX, and in 2018 the airport handled a total of 2.2 million metric tons of cargo – a 2.4% rise from the previous year. This increase is a clear indicator of the critical role LAX plays as a conduit for trade in the U.S. and internationally.
The significant growth in airfreight volumes is fueled by several factors. These include increased manufacturing demand, lower interest rates, and of course, a surge in cross border e-commerce. Online ordering is expected to present the most significant opportunity for air cargo and is expected to increase as much as 25% annually in the coming years.
The volume surge has a significant ripple effect of increasing waiting times for truckers, who tender or retrieve shipments not just in Los Angeles but at busy gateways throughout the country. Truck waiting times at LAX routinely exceed four hours at the existing cargo facilities. Forwarders face significant waiting time and associated expense that often is difficult to pass along to the customer. Until recently, the airport had been in the midst of modernizing its cargo facilities with the Century Cargo Redevelopment Project, which would allow officials to maintain and enhance LAX's air cargo market position among U.S. airports and the world.
In a blunt statement to over 200 in attendance at the town hall event, an official from LAX said that there were just too many simultaneous projects and resulting impacts to manage effectively. As a result, cargo, an essential lifeline to the area's commercial and economic growth, will have to take a back seat as the LAX redevelopment project progresses.
Air cargo redevelopment will ultimately find its way to LAX. Still, in the meantime, it has become imperative to identify creative solutions to manage increasing truck congestion. One proposed idea is to displace less urgent import shipments to warehouses away from the airport. Another is to leverage technology by introducing automated check-in and traffic flow systems, as some other airports are doing throughout the country.
Aviation continues to be a tremendous factor in furthering economic and social development around LAX, and airports globally. Placing freight on the backburner in any airport redevelopment plan ignores the fundamental fact that air cargo plays a significant role, and that is no laughing matter.

RUMOR: RUSSIA MAY BE MOBILIZING HER TROOPS! An American subscriber who lives and works in Russia called me Friday, 3/28, to tell me that the signs of a large-scale military mobilization were very evident on the streets. Russian soldiers by the many hundreds were suddenly out in uniform and seemingly heading for bus and rail lines. He said it looked as though a mobilization was under way. I put out some feelers to other Cutting Edge subscribers to scourge the Internet to see if they could pick up any corroborating evidence. One subscriber emailed me the contents of a Discussion Board posting. Listen: "I was listening to the steve quayle (sic) show he said that he had a call and that there is word that russian (sic) troops are getting ready to go to the middle east to protect their oil interests." Earlier in the week, we posted an article from IRNA which stated that Russia was sending large "humanitarian supplies" to the Iran/Iraq border, even though Iran was independently stating they had seen no Iraqi refugees heading their way! At the time, it seemed that Russia might be using this story as a cover for sending military supplies. Since Russia has a Mutual Defense Treaty with Iran, she would be forced to react to American pressure upon Iran. If Russian troops are heading for the Middle East, that means about 40 different countries are now placing troops in the Middle East, thus making the fulfillment of Joel 3 that much more likely.

'Emily in Paris' Officially Moving to Netflix
Great news, Lilyians! It has been reported on The Hollywood Reporter that Emily in Paris, an upcoming television series starring Lily Collins, will be available to stream on Netflix this Fall! Below you'll find two stills released, along with the full report.
Television Series > Emily in Paris > Season 1 > Episode Stills > 1.01 – Pilot
It's official: Darren Star's Emily in Paris is moving from Paramount Network to Netflix.
The Paris-shot romantic comedy starring Lily Collins was originally poised to launch on the ViacomCBS-owned basic cable network last summer but will officially debut in the fall on the streaming giant.
The 10-episode half-hour comedy revolves around Emily, an ambitious 20-something marketing executive from Chicago, who unexpectedly lands her dream job in Paris when her company acquires a French luxury marketing company — and she is tasked with revamping their social media strategy. Emily's new life in Paris is filled with intoxicating adventures and surprising challenges as she juggles winning over her work colleagues, making friends and navigating new romances.
Star created the series, which was filmed entirely on location in Paris and throughout France. The comedy is produced by MTV Studios and Jax Media, which also is behind Star's TV Land favorite, Younger. Jax's Tony Hernandez and Lilly Burns exec produce alongside Andrew Fleming and Star.
"MTV Studios and I couldn't hope for a more perfect home for Emily in Paris than Netflix. With their international reach, we are excited to share Emily with audiences around the world," Star said.
Emily in Paris' move to Netflix arrives more than two months after news leaked that the series would not air on the ViacomCBS-owned general entertainment network. Paramount Network first developed the series back in 2017, when Kevin Kay ran the cable network. The show's move, which was developed by ViacomCBS rising star Keith Cox, is part of a strategy change in which Paramount Network is looking for more broad-skewing dramas with big stars as it attempts to replicate the success of Kevin Costner vehicle Yellowstone. The cabler has no original scripted comedies.
MTV Studios, overseen by Chris McCarthy, was launched a few years ago with the goal of tapping into the company's vault in a bid to monetize its library as it looked to become a content supplier to third-party buyers. While McCarthy most recently picked up Beavis and ButtHead and Daria spinoff Jodie for Comedy Central, MTV Studios has been able to sell such shows as The Real World to Facebook Watch, among others. To that end, MTV Studios is also prepping a Hilary Duff-led Younger spinoff, which could wind up being sold to a third-party buyer. Younger was briefly slated to move to Paramount Network but execs reversed course and the Star-created series will remain on TV Land as the cabler's last scripted original.
Star, meanwhile, is fresh off signing a sweeping overall deal with ViacomCBS, that will see him create and develop new programs for both its cable networks, streamers and, yes, outside buyers.

4A Football Practice Has Begun!
Frank Gambino
Frank Gambino Published: August 9, 2021
The boys of fall are on the field as football practice for the 4A schools started on Monday. The season begins August 27th for the 4A schools while all the other classifications will start practice next week.
There's a lot to get through before the season begins and literally it's one step at a time. The defending champions in 4A football are Cheyenne East, who went 11-1 but everybody has some high hopes at this time of year. Casper-Natrona went 5-5 a year ago and lost their first-round playoff game to Thunder Basin 19-14 so the Mustangs want to take the next step this season. There's fundamental work to the max for the next few days, so the players need to be physically and mentally ready.
While conditioning is a huge part of the first few days of practice, some teams have been working on some schematic features right off the bat. Casper-Kelly Walsh went through some pursuit drills on Monday night and the Trojans would like to build on what they accomplished last season. They entered the 4A playoffs as the #7 seed and upset Cheyenne Central 28-14 before losing to Thunder Basin in the semi-final round 55-14. KW was 5-6 a year ago and a top 4 regular season finish is the goal for this group with the home playoff game that goes with it.
The first regular-season games in 4A are as follows on August 27th: Natrona will be at Cheyenne Central, Kelly Walsh travels to Cheyenne South. Cheyenne East will be at home on opening night to take on Thunder Basin in a rematch of the 4A title game in 2020. Sheridan opens the season in Laramie and Rock Springs will be at home to start the season against Campbell County.
Take a look at some of the sights and sounds of the first day of practice for the Casper schools on Monday. Enjoy!
Just The Facts: Size Doesn't Matter For Wyoming's War Memorial Stadium
Did you know it would take the populations of Gillette (32,857), Laramie (32,381), Rock Springs (23,319), Sheridan (17,844) and Wright (1,200) to create a sellout inside Michigan's famed 107,601-seat Big House, the largest college football stadium in the nation?
For those of you not familiar with the Cowboy State, those are Wyoming's third through sixth most inhabited cities, along with the small mining town in Campbell County.

Birmingham City claim to have made changes to ensure spending rules are not broken again, but the Championship club are yet to confirm if they will appeal against a nine-point deduction.
The English Football League (EFL) announced on Friday that Birmingham have been docked points following an investigation into the club's finances.
Birmingham were found to have breached rules on profitability and sustainability, with the deduction immediately coming into effect.
Garry Monk's side therefore drop from 13th in the Championship table to 18th, five points clear of the relegation zone, with eight games of the season to go.
Birmingham have 14 days to decide whether or not to lodge an appeal against the punishment, with the club releasing a statement in response to the EFL's announcement.
"The club has put measures in place to ensure future spending is within acceptable limits and since August we have adhered to an EFL business plan, which imposed transfer restrictions upon us," Birmingham said.
"Then, as now, decisions by the owners and the board of directors were taken with the club's best interests at heart and a determination to halt a cycle of decline and stagnation, with the intention of pushing on to fulfil ours and our fans' ambitions.


On the back of the very favourable reviews for Ben Affleck's directorial career, I finally got round to watching his project before Argo, The Town. He also stars as a member of an armed robbery crew in Boston.
It's not that the plot structure is particularly innovative but it would be very easy to take a tired old formula and produce something that's tired and old. But this is far more engaging and involving than most other crime dramas.
Jeremy Renner is quite a violent presence, simmering with defiance that almost maps out his destiny. But it's Rebecca Hall that gives Affleck something to lean his performance on. She's solid enough in a role that's a bit more than a damsel in distress.
The ending was oddly ambigous in its morality. It's hard to analyse too much without massive spoilers but I was expecting something more satisfying.
Overall, and in memory of Roger Ebert who died recently, I'll give this movie a thumbs up.
