Force is defined as an influence that causes an object to undergo a change in speed, direction or shape. A force refers to pushing or pulling of an object with mass to acceleration. In science, force is described as a quantitative description of the interaction between two physical bodies. Force is the derivative of momentum with respect to time. Gravitation and electromagnetic force are those forces which can exert themselves even across the empty vacuum of space. Force is denoted by the symbol 'F'.
Force consists of both magnitude and direction that makes it a vector quantity. As per Newton's second law, the net force acting upon an object is equal to the rate at which its momentum changes. This advanced online Force Calculator is used to calculate and find the force when mass and acceleration of the object is known.

The Flintstones (2016-2017)
The first family of Bedrock (and civilization, really) tells the story of who we are and why we do what we do as if it all began with Fred, Wilma, Barney, Betty and the rest of the citizens of Bedrock. Shining a light on humanity's ancient customs and institutions in a funny origin story of human civilization, Mark Russell (PREZ) blends modern interpretations with Hanna-Barbera's classic character

ILSA Inc. How is the global ILSA industry shaping international data on learning outcomes?
This blog presents the ILSAINC research project. Dr Addey has been funded a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship, part of the Horizon 2020 Programme, by the European Commission to carry out this project. Dr Addey will be based at GEPS, the Globalisation, Education and Social Policies research centre at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona.
We hear a lot about the global shift from data on education access to data on learning outcomes, and the rise of learning outcomes quantified as internationally comparative data in the form of International Large-Scale Assessments (ILSAs), but we know very little about the fast-expanding business opportunity ILSAs have created since their tremendous growth in the mid 1990s. And we know next-to-nothing about the global International Large-Scale Assessment (ILSA) industry that has emerged as a result.
Although the global ILSA industry (ILSA Inc.) has been almost entirely neglected by scholars (whilst the wider education industry has received much attention), scholars are now increasingly expressing concern about the privilege and power afforded to the private actors inscribing their agendas, profit-interests, power practices and values in ILSAs (i.e. Lingard et al. 2013). Indeed, the OECD has recognized that the private sector has reason to lobby for the growth of ILSAs (OECD 2013). Nonetheless, to date no scholarship has looked into the global ILSA industry. Should we therefore assume that it is not a matter of concern? According to the body of scholarship identified as Critical Data Studies, it is indeed important to interrogate the practices, values and power dynamics encoded in data and thus, to pay careful attention to the actors involved in data making (Kitchin and Lauriault 2014). This concern is made all the more urgent and timely as ILSAs are growing in scope, scale, reach (Sellar and Lingard 2014), thus making the global ILSA industry bigger, more complex and more powerful in setting the global learning outcomes' agenda.
But let's take a step back. How did this fast-expanding business opportunity arise?
In order to participate in ILSAs, governments have to pay a substantial participation fee which consists of a flat fee plus a country-specific overhead which is calculated based on the size of each country's economy. This fee covers the costs covered by International Organizations (IOs) of outsourcing ILSAs – from test development all the way to data analysis and report writing – through competitive tendering processes. As an example of the business opportunity created through PISA for Development (PISA-D), the OECD contracted a consortium of contractors (as they are called by the OECD): Education Testing Services to develop the test items and the manage PISA-D, Pearson to develop the frameworks upon which the tests are developed and interpreted, The Learning Bar to develop the background questionnaires, cApStAn to check the linguistic/psychometric/cultural equivalence of the translated tests,Westat to sample the test-takers in each participating country, Positivo BGH to provide tablets, and Microsoft to develop software. The PISA-D example is a small snapshot of the ILSA-outsourcing business opportunity which has given life to what I call 'the global ILSA industry'.
And how does the global ILSA industry operate?
After a public call for tender, IOs contract a consortium of private actors (this information is made public) but nothing is known about who made offers, the evaluation of the bids, the negotiation of the contractual Terms of Reference, the details of the work, the amount of money IOs receive from governments, nor how much the private contractors are paid. By applying a network ethnography (Ball 2016), the ILSA Inc. research project aims to map the global ILSA industry and apply the lens of the Global Education Industry (Verger et al. 2016) to theorize how the global ILSA industry emerged, stabilised and operates – focusing in particular on how its actors struggle to maintain and transform the ILSA Inc. A deeper understanding of how the global ILSA industry operates will show how the shared cognitive frames, networks and institutions, that have been normalised in the global ILSA industry, are shaping ILSAs.
But do we really know next-to-nothing more about this global ILSA industry?
A preliminary mapping which I have carried out shows that the global ILSA industry is a small, well-established network of actors which has now normalised a set of rules of the game and power dynamics. Following the actors' moves shows how hard it is to access this industry and that the few new actors tend to emerge from the edges (for example, they are part of ILSA advisory boards and then start a private company that wins a contract) thus showing the value of network capital (Urry 2003) and intimately knowing the rules of the game. The extensive experience and the sophisticated expertise that the actors of the global ILSA industry have developed over the last twenty years, but also the size of the contracts (these are often very big and require a team of people to prepare long, complicated bidding offers in response to the Calls for Tender) make it difficult for smaller, less experienced private companies to access the global ILSA industry. However, this first mapping does not provide insights into the cooperative, conflictual and competitive relationships amongst the actors, the rules of the game that actors abide by to profit from the ILSA business opportunity, and what agendas and interests are being inscribed in ILSAs and the data they produce. The ILSAINC project intends to respond to these questions.
A deeper understanding of the global ILSA industry may stimulate greater transparency and accountability of those developing the very instruments of global accountability, but also allow a fairer analysis of the private sector practices and interests embedded in the data.

The HUNT Study (an acronym for the Norwegian name:Helseundersøkelsen i Nord-Trøndelag) constitutes a large population database for medical and health-related research. So far three health surveys of the general adult population in the Nord-Trøndelag County, Norway, have been completed: HUNT1 in 1984–86, HUNT2 in 1995–97, and HUNT3 in 2006–08. Major public health issues as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obstructive lung disease, osteoporosis and mental health are explored, in concordance with current priorities of the health authorities. Adolescents aged 13-19 years have been invited to the Young-HUNT Study initiated at HUNT2 with a partly overlapping scientific program to the adults surveys.
The HUNT Study includes large adult total population-based cohorts from the 1980ies, covering 125 000 Norwegian participants; HUNT1 (1984-86), HUNT2 (1995-97) and HUNT3 (2006-08).
Every citizen of Nord-Trøndelag County in Norway being 20 years or older, have been invited to all the surveys for adults. Participants may be linked in families and followed up longitudinally between the surveys and in several national health- and other registers covering the total Norwegian population.

Hersi Matmuja was born on February 1st, 1990. She has pursued a dual career path, which led her to be successful in both modern and classical music.
Her first major TV success came in 2005, when she took part in the talent show "Ethet e së premtes", reaching the top 10 finalists. On her fifth attempt, she finally won Festivali i Këngës and will thus represent Albania in the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest.
Hersi has taken part in many concerts like Carmina Burana by Carl Orff in 2010 or projects like "Let's Britten" in honor of the composer Benjamin Britten that took place in some of historical buildings in Rome in 2013.
A solid English as a second language mish-mash is the only real issue I have with the always novel Albanian presentation. Hersi can be described as having a bit of a Kate Bush sound and Bonham Carter look, she's passably performs a soft rock ethnic ballard which is mildly pleasing really, at least in the studio version. There's the always welcome addition of the middle aged male backing singer who sounds like he's experiencing difficulty in passing Qofte, and another one who's got big specs,which kind of distracts from the woeful lyrics (e.g. "Wait a tick tiny tick, you'll regret it (just wanna say it right"). No Final.
Aram Sargsyan was born in Yerevan, on April 5, 1984. At school age Aram had breathing difficulties and was coughing a lot. Following doctors' strange advice to try singing, Aram's parents took him to the choir classes. Unexpectedly it worked and music healed him!
Being famous for the ability to sing songs of a wide vocal diapason and having a good sense of humour, Aram is also known as a person of contrasts and surprises. Despite spending most of his time on stage, he considers himself a family man feeling very much attached to his charming wife Anna and charismatic son Arno. The main streets of Yerevan are glowing with his posters, still Aram doesn't consider himself a celebrity. He has hosted famous TV Formats such as "X- Factor", "Armenian Idol", "My name is", and "Power of 10".
Mr MP3 seems to be a sort of Yerevan Rob Brydon, a bit of a light entertainment gent who also sings and wears stitch back gloves and highly proportioned eyes. Apart from having a go at winding up the gay contingent (not a great idea at ESC) his tune was the early overall favourite, at least until the Semi Final when it disappointed. It's a kind of slow grow anthemic number and takes a good 1:30 until the stringy beat kicks in. For the last half expect a large electricity bill as he bangs out a song that covers reconciliation and the usual tolerance schtick. Watch out for the interesting climax face.
Tom Neuwirth was born on November 6th, 1988, and he for the first time performed as his alter ego Conchita Wurst in 2011. Since then, he has been a symbol for tolerance and artistic freedom in Austria and beyond. His motto: "Be the best version of yourself rather than a bad copy of someone else!"
Conchita Wurst was born as Tom Neuwirth on November 6th, 1988 in Gmunden/Austria. He first performed as his alter ego Conchita Wurst, the famous long-haired full-bearded lady, in the talent show "Die große Chance" in 2011. Since then, he certainly has not gone unnoticed in Austria. More recently, Conchita Wurst participated in the ORF production "The hardest jobs of Austria", where she worked in a fish factory.
Now a beard and lippy is not a particular look many people will be attuned to. I count myself in that boring traditional camp. As for the song, it's another Bond-lite sopfest. Think Dana Intl but with no access to a Phillishave. Alter-ego Ms Wurst (or Tom Neuwirth) is at pains to inform us he is not a transgender, just an average bloke in a frock. In a wholly preceptive comment Armenia's singer said "Conchita's team will help her to decide whether she is a woman or a man". As you may imagine it caused a major stink amongst ESC damp fan. Which was funny. This could win cos he/she sings rather well when all is done.
29 year old Dilara has what it takes to be a standout. Early vocal training gave her a great range and vocal discipline. She's taken elements from each of these diverse genres, developing her own unique vocal style. Dilara is remarkably flexible, handling a Motown inspired Mercy with soul and impressive energy or a jazzy cover of Hometown Glory which may actually be as good as Adele's original effort. Besides music Dilara has a passion for painting and acting. Fans of live music in Baku know her as one of the most wanted and most discussed guest of city's modern alternative stage.When she's got a chance, Dilara spends her spare time in the yoga studio or reading books on psychology. She also loves animals and never wears fur in life or on stage.
The most notable point to me is that she pronounces "people" like one of the most pre-eminent politicians of our time, yes Michael Howard. That aside, Dilara is a photogenic Eastern lovely, all cheekbones and smoulder. "Start a fire" is a simple ditty that gets straight down to it, and then carries on in the same decent vein. In a gimmick heavy performance we have a solid 3 varieties, namely a female gymnast on a swing (who doesn't seem to have a safety rope), Dilara's seethrough red dress, and the always welcome balaban, a bit like a sophisticated Caspian kazoo. Expect to see it easing into the Top10.
Teo's real name is Yuriy Vaschuk. The singer was born on January 24th, 1983 in a small Belarusian town Hidry. His passion for all aspects of music was noticed very early, and after four years of learning to play the accordion, he became the international champion after winning the children's contest Praleska.
Teo was rather casually selected as his pop stage name in 2011, via a Google search. "I clicked 'T' in Google search and saw it immediately. I liked it instantly and that was it."
The meaning behind Cheesecake is simple but a good one: "It's a positive song, even though I've broken up with a girl because I'm tired of her calling me her sweet cheesecake. We all need to be treated with respect."
He looks like Bennie Blanco from the Bronx and sounds a bit like that bastion of Feminist thought Robin Thicke. So not exactly a glowing tribute, but somehow "Cheesecake" manages to just fall on the right side of pure naff. The object of Teo's affections (left) on the promo seems not to be joining him on stage which is a bad call by the delegation and the message (for what it is) may well be lost as a result.
But overall, sure it's tat-Jazz with a deeply Stilton refrain, but the catchy chorus and confident stage presence may well scrape it into Saturday.
For Axel Hirsoux, taking part in the Eurovision Song Contest is a dream come true. This humble young man from Charleroi will soon take to the stage in Copenhagen to show the world what he has to offer musically with the song Mother. Born in 1982, Axel Hirsoux grew up in the rural town of Courcelles, near Charleroi. His love of music was in his blood even as a child. During his early years he studied music theory for 5 years after which he learned to play the trumpet. The song Mother is a powerful classic ballad with a simple and understated mise en scene, beautifully executed by eminent choreographer Isabelle Beernaert. Mother is a David Poltrock production. He sings his song with his whole heart and dedicates it to all the mothers of the world, and by extension, to all women.
Look at Axel. Close your eyes. Listen to the song (not too much now, don't overdo it). Open your eyes. Rub them. Leave the room/have a stiff drink (as applicable). Although his mum,mMrs Hirsoux, is I'm sure a wonderful woman, she didn't monitor Axel's tuck-shop visits too closely it appears. Another creepy Belgian effort, a ballard with little to recommend apart from the obvious unsettling vision of middle-aged fat man extolling his maternal love through the medium of ballard. After the Romanian shock last year this could go either way, but I hope upon hope that taste prevails.
Anis Basim Moujahid (born 4 July 1992), better known as Basim, is a Danish singer and songwriter. He is of Moroccan origin, but lives in Copenhagen, Denmark. He is one of the few people that all of Denmark is on a first-name basis with. In 2008, at the age of just 15 years old Basim came fourth in the first season of X-Factor and since then has become a household name. "Tunes often just come to you when you least expect it, and the melody to Cliche Love Song came out of the blue". "The song is about a girl I meet and have a crush on. I try and do everything I can in order to get her to love me, but no matter what I do, it just feels like a cliché, and that is the theme of the song. But there is a twist to the song", explains Basim. He describes Cliche Love Song as a pop song with a hint of soul and R&B.
If you think Leo Sayer and Bruno Mars lovechild would be an unpalatable thought, then be warned. I find it hard work writing about Danish ESC entrants these days. I empathise with the local newsprint hack typing up a story of a wall falling over in a carpark. Play is being made of Basim being a success story from his Moroccan immigrant status (it may have something to do with the relatively rare occurrence of both immigrants & success). But there's nothing successful about this tedious pastiche. Give him his due, he's a likeable stage presence in a bow tie, but the song remains drivel which needs to be forgotten.
Born in Kaliningrad, Russia, Tanja moved to Estonia at two months old. Today she's a household name: a much loved entertainer and a role model in her home country. Tanja is amazing – a true pearl in a sea of pre-fab pop stars. She was not born with a silver spoon in her mouth, but has achieved her success through sheer hard work. Today, her CV is about as thick as a telephone directory, featuring dozens of roles in major musicals, wins galore in singing contests and six albums' worth of music. Tanja is currently starring in Cabaret (in which she plays Sally), The Last Cowboy (in which she plays Lucy) and Thriller – Tribute to Michael Jackson (in which she plays Bubbles...not really). "It took a lot of rehearsing to achieve the fluency I needed when singing and dancing at the same time," Tanja reveals.
Tanja is a dancer first and a singer second. But frankly she is such a good dancer and a decent enough singer that you have to admire her, regardless of the song; a blatant Loreen rip-off that would otherwise (and indeed still may) be forgetten about. The real strength of this is her, who somehow manages to hold strong notes throughout the performance, during which she spends much time either on a man's shoulders or being swung around by her ankles. She's a bit of a find this one. The only risk is that Europe won't believe she's actually singing, but I assure you she is. So all in all it deserves a final spot.
The annual "spot the smile" Finnish competition continues to roll-over, and Softengine certainly won't be claiming the prize. A rare beat-pop combo, this song starts pleasantly enough in a mid-range typical 80's throwback beat kind of way, and maintains a form of momentum that leaves a pleasant, if brief, memory. The main bug bear is the lyrics which if you can be bothered listening to, are complete and utter balls. In summary it's Killers-lite with lyrical shite. I've got it getting through purely on the basis it stands alone this year, as a decent group song, but don't blame me if I'm wrong.
With its bouncy melodies, a healthy sense of gimmick, and the liveliness of its lyrics, Twin Twin is a perfect example of the YOLO (You Only Live Once) generation, which would rather live life to the fullest than be dragged overboard by wailing sirens of doubt. Twin Twin drew critical attention early on for the panache of their songs and extravagant style, which drew from everyday Paris and the high society environments of fashion. "We tend to favor a lighter, more festive approach, because we want to have fun and to be able bring energy to what we do." This is the spirit that runs through their song Moustache: an irresistible dance track that tells the story of a man who already has everything, but who still wants a moustache, a humorous and affectionate critique of our culture of hyper-consumption.
My all-round favourite of the year from the reliably bonkers French who have sent a joke act in a pop-rap styley. Now if you're reading this I appreciate it doesn't sound promising, however give it a go and you may be surprised. Especially if you enjoy a couple of Long Island Ice Teas beforehand. You may even hum along. "Moustache" is not only a bright catchy belter, but it also touches on the evils of modern materialism (but you knew that anyway). The usual fear is that the crazy nature will translate to the stage as what it is, a screwball mess. I'm sure it won't win but as they say "Il n'y a pas de mal".

BUYER: Reese Witherspoon
YOUR MAMAS NOTES: As pearl clutchingly scandalicious as the tabloid storm over the recent arrests of otherwise wholesome Oscar winning actress Reese Witherspoon and her talent agent second hubby Jim Toth in Atlanta (GA) may be—he for driving drunk, she for cop sassing—it's their most recent, semi-secret real estate doings that really grab the attentions of real estate obsessed folk like Your Mama.
Some of the children may recall it wasn't too long ago that word made its way down the celebrity real estate gossip grapevine and into Your Mama's increasingly prodigious lap about how the Witherspoon-Toths were scouring the better zip codes of Los Angeles for a secluded new spread in the $15-20,000,000 range. Indeed, multiple sources snitched to Your Mama that, among other similarly sized and priced properties, the couple had a look see at but passed on NBC Broadcasting Chairman Ted Harbert's ex-wife Susan's secluded two-plus acre spread in Pacific Palisades that was then being quietly shown off market but is now listed on the open market with an $18.5 million asking price.
Despite an exhaustive search for a pricey new pad to house their growing family of five it seems Miz Witherspoon and Mister Toth may have decided to stay put in Miz Witherspoon's long-time residence in a discreet, gated enclave in L.A.'s tony Brentwood community where, Your Mama recently discovered, last December she/they surreptitiously shelled out exactly $3,000,000 for the house next door.
The first piece of Miz Witherspoon's three property puzzle was picked up way back in late 2003 when she was still married to actor Ryan Phillippe. She paid, according to property records, $4,725,000 for the corner property and its nearly 7,000 square foot mock-Med mini-mansion.
In July 2009, not too long after she and Mister Phillippe parted ways, Miz Witherspoon forked over $3.325 million for one of the two neighboring properties. She subsequently razed the 3,000 residence and re-landscaped the property to incorporate it into the existing backyard area.
A couple of quick and crude calculations on Your Mama's beloved bejeweled abacus shows that Miz Witherspoon has spent a total of $11,050,000 on her three parcel spread that combined encompass 1.32 acres.
Miz Witherspoon's newest acquisition had long been owned by handsome NCIS actor Mark Harmon's mother, the late fashion designer turned Maybelline model turned Tinseltown starlet turned painter mother Elyse Knox who was married to Heisman Trophy winning father Tom Harmon until his death in 1990.
Listing details from the time of the sale show the existing, perfectly ordinary single story ranch-style house was originally built in 1956, on a .66 acre lot and includes a total of three bedrooms and three bathrooms—plus an additional staff bedroom and bathroom—in 3,053 square feet. The grounds include a brick-paved motor court and attached two car garage, expansive brick terraces, a swimming pool and a separate stone and glass art studio/guest house. Your Mama has no idea what Miz Witherspoon and Mister Toth have planned for the property.
Avid celebrity real estate watchers know that Miz Witherspoon and by extension Mister Toth have been in mood to shake up her/their portfolio of high-priced properties over the last few years. In 2008 the Miz Witherspoon snatched up Libbey Ranch—a stunning historic ranch in Ojai, CA—from Million Dollar Decorator Kathryn Ireland for $5.8 million. She had the landscaping worked over by accomplished landscape designer Jay Griffith and the interiors all did up by lady-decorator Kristen Buckingham and in March 2011 she and Mister Toth were united in holy matrimony on the grounds in front of a slew of celeb guests. It wasn't long after the pristine property appeared on the cover and in the glossy pages of Elle Decor (Sept. 2012) that it popped up for sale with a $10 million price tag. She recently slashed the asking price by $2.75 million.
In August 2010—half a year before she married Mister Toth—she bought a secluded, equestrian friendly 2.53 acre spread in the prosperous and rustic Mandeville Canyon area of Los Angeles from idiosyncratic actor Steven Seagal for $6.9 million. She quickly leveled the property's various structures before she caught a classic case of The Celebrity Real Estate Fickle and flipped the property back on the market with an asking price of $7.995 million. The property was quietly sold it in November 2012 for $7.5 to seven-time Oscar nominated producer Kathleen Kennedy and five-time Oscar nominated producer Frank Marshall who, the children may recall, sold their previous home in L.A.—a gigantic Gwathmey Siegel & Associates-designed pile —early 2010 for just over $26 million to Tinseltown royals Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson.
Miz Witherspoon's property portfolio also includes a 6,462 square foot residence in the guard-gated Sugartree enclave in her native Nashville, TN that she scooped up in April 2005 for $760,000.

I would not be surprised to find that this home already has a bulldozer parked in the driveway. That's going to be an impressive spread once they've tied it all together.
She is gonna tear down her current house and build a new manse on all 3 lots.
This doesn't make sense to me. If you look at the properties, she has a house slammed against the road, the 1+ acres is laid out in an odd L-shape which would make it hard to be a grand estate and just behind it are apartment buildings. WTF
DC Guy said...
Plus, if you google map her current house ... what's that behind her backyard ... condos? Motel 6? Only so many trees you can plant before the common folks creep onto your land.
Well you DC guy, you can take the girl out of Tenessee but not the motel 6. To be serious, I really question her judgement, especially now. Hubby has to be having the same thoughts after the dash cam.
LOL that dash can video was soooo funny! Wurk it Reese!!!
Rosco Mare said...
Maybe she's just expanding the range in anticipation of a home monitoring ankle bracelet. Remember what happened to Zsa Zsa after smarting off to the po-po?
Sorry 2:34 Zsa Zsa was sober and she is Hollywood Royalty. Illegally Blond is not ZZ
She has quite a fabulous property lineup. And perhaps a fabulous money-manager. I don't recall her being in that many movies that she would have so much money to shell out...
Sandpiper said...
Good for Reese. She's gifted and has worked for every hard-earned cent while spinning many plates as a mama, wife and business woman!
As you speculated, Mama in your high top Louboutin diamond-studed gardening boots, only time will tell on ultimate plans for the land.
There are some amazing properties in that general neighborhood, especially up around McCulloch (Harrison and Calista's street) as well as the exceptional Legorretta designed estate at the end of Layton. But her property is not one of them, and even if all three lots are combined, Mrs. Harmon's house is torn down, and the present house Witherspoon occupies is replaced with something that reflects the opportunities of more space, I don't think it ever has the potential to be one of those amazing properties. It just intrinsically doesn't seem to be a great parcel in pieces or in the aggregate -- which is not to say that you couldn't build a beautiful house on it. Just like there are beautiful house on any number of ordinary lots in the flats of Beverly Hills and elsewhere.
However, the fact that it's on a gated street in Brentwood is definitely exceptional.
Btw, does anybody know anything about the absolutely ginormous house that's been built at the very tail end of Gunston? In some satelites, it's just prepped property, in others it's in construction and huge.
According to Blockshopper, Michelle Lee closed on 141 N. Gunston on Dec. 24 of last year. I seem to recall that she just sold her house in Beverly Hills.
Actually, now I see that Mama talked about the house Michelle was selling. It's not in BH but rather Little Holmby and it sold earlier in December for 7.4m.
The new one she picked up is also, like her old one, a spanish colonial. It was built in 1938 and cost her 3.8m.
That's producer Joel Silver's house at top of Layton - Lethal Weapon, Die Hard, Sherlock Holmes, etc.. It was featured once in AD if I recall correctly - within the past few years.
I'll have to check on who's building that huge Med' looking thing just south of The Getty - end of N. Gunston.
Wallace Ridge
Thanks Wallace Ridge. I kept hoping someone would fill me in.
I didn't realize Silver owned the Legorretta house. When I see you on a new post, I'll ask you again if you were able to get any background on that Gunston behemoth.
Bunty said...
Doesn't she also own the house on the corner of Chalon Road and Sienna Way - seen visiting it last year - undergoing renovation?


New Bedford, Massachusetts– The City of New Bedford has established a deadline of May 6, 2019 for prospective recreational marijuana businesses to submit Host Community Agreement (HCA) applications to the Planning Department for the first round of review. All applications must include a certificate of compliance with local zoning and a demonstration of site control, among other supporting materials.
In October 2018, the City of New Bedford established administrative procedures to implement the state law allowing for the retail sale, processing, and cultivation of recreational marijuana. Under these procedures, prospective recreational marijuana businesses are given an opportunity to submit Host Community Agreement applications. An advisory committee then periodically reviews applications and recommends selected applicants to the Mayor based on a variety of factors. Finally, selected applicants are invited to begin negotiations with the City toward a Host Community Agreement.
Under Massachusetts law, all applicants for state licenses to operate recreational marijuana businesses are required to secure a Host Community Agreement with the city or town in which respective businesses are located. Once applicants have received state approval, applicants must also obtain a local license (where required) and a Special Permit from the local planning department. No date has been established for a second round of application review in New Bedford; prospective recreational marijuana businesses are encouraged to submit their applications for consideration in this first round of review.

This first assignment has two keys: #1 and #3. The inbetween is #2.
You are to draw 1 inbetween for each ball.
Begin first by flipping the drawings to see what is going on and where the drawing is coming from and where it's going to. Look at the two lines that represent a center line and an eye line for an understanding of the rotation of the sphere.
Place a blank sheet of paper over the two keys and lable it "2" in the lower right corner.
Start the drawing by loosely sketching the volume of the ball in the half way position. Decide on whether you're going to use a curved path of action or a straight one. Curved is the preferred line as things rarely move in straight lines unless they are mechanical in nature. "Inbetween flip" the drawings to see the action taking place and make sure the movement is correct and the volume is being maintained. Make any corrections before you move on.
Begin with either the eye line or the center line, it doesn't really matter which. Lightly sketch in the line and flip th drawings to see the motion. Make corrections and darken it in when you've settled on the final line. Now move on to the next sphere and repeat the process until you've finished all 4.


Riding a bike to school can help you maintain a higher level of fitness; however, sometimes when you cycle you will get your school uniform dirty.
Many people argue in favour of reducing our dependence upon fossil fuels. However, it should be kept in mind that these people don't always know everything about the new kinds of energy they advocate.
Note the punctuation above. We can use "however" after a semi-colon or a period, and always followed by a comma.
There are two sides to every coin. On the one hand, online shopping is convenient. On the other hand, you don't know the quality of what you're buying.
Is that a good answer?
Not really. Firstly, the idiom at the start is really cliched. Examiners hate hearing this stuff. You should avoid phrases like that, even when they're correctly used. Then, the "on the one hand… on the other…" structure. Again, it's over-used by IELTS candidates and can be annoying for examiners to hear. You're better off using simpler phrases with a higher degree of accuracy.
Take a look at the following table.
The internet allows us to buy e-books quickly online and instantly download them to our e-reader device. However, this ease of access means that we no longer value our books so much and we treat them as though they were disposable.
These days it is possible to get music online from various streaming services, and one great thing is that you can find new artists that you didn't know about. However, there is a lot of copyright infringement, so you really need to be careful.
I think that buying airplane tickets online is necessary because it's so much more efficient than the old method; however, they are usually non-refundable, and if you make a mistake then you are in big trouble.

35+ Interesting Facts About Namibia
Namibia is a scarcely populated country in southern Africa , bordered by the Atlantic Ocean on the west. Namibia is the driest country in sub-Saharan Africa . Only 5% of its land is arable due to low precipitation, negligible groundwater, and the absence of permanent water bodies. Namibia is the second-least densely populated sovereign country after Mongolia . Its population density is around three people per square km. The German Empire took control of modern-day Namibia in 1884, where they committed the f irst genocide of the 20th Century from 1904-08. It happened after the uprising of the local population against colonial rule. The Germans killed thousands of Herero and Nama people and put others in concentration camps. ( Source ) South Africa took control of Namibia from Germany in 1915 during World War 1 . It became part of South Africa in 1920 after approval from the League of Nations. However, the UN rejected the South African occupation of South West Africa in 1946. In 1961,
35+ Interesting Facts About Emperor Penguins
Emperor penguins are the largest living species of penguins. Males are slightly larger than females having 1.3 meters (51 inches) in height and up to 45 kg (99 lbs) in weight. ( Source ) Emperor and Adelie are the only two penguin species having a permanent presence on the Antarctic continent . Few other species breed on the Antarctic Peninsula or subantarctic islands. Emperor penguins are carnivores and have to feed in the open ocean due to the absence of suitable food on the Antarctic ice. Their diet includes fish , krill, and squid . The emperor penguin is the world's deepest-diving bird . The deepest dive, 564 meters (1,850 feet), was recorded in 2006. However, most of their dives are less than 400 meters (1,312 feet). They can remain underwater for more than 20 minutes, while the maximum time was 32.2 minutes, recorded in 2018. ( Source ) There are several factors behind deep dives of emperor penguins. Their heart rate reduces during a dive to five beats per minute to lower oxy
20+ Interesting Facts About King Cobras
King cobra is a venomous snake in the family "elapid." They are endemic to forests , grasslands, and swamps in South and Southeast Asia. The king cobra is the sole member of its genus, not related to true cobras. Its name is due to its diet of other snakes , including cobras. Several species of cobra snakes spit venom and are known as spitting cobras. King cobras do not have this ability. The king cobra is the world's longest venomous snake . Its average length is 3-4 meters (approximately 10-13 feet), while the longest snake reached 5.71 meters (18.7 feet). Like other venomous snakes in the London Zoo, this potentially dangerous king cobra was killed after the start of World War 2 . ( Source ) The primary diet of king cobras is other snakes, both venomous and non-venomous having a length of up to 10 feet. The king cobra can neutralize the venom of other snakes. Sometimes they eat rodents, lizards , and smaller king cobras. King cobras are unaggressive and usually avoid humans . It o
25+ Interesting Facts About Cuckoos
There are around 150 species of cuckoos. Famous birds in this medium-sized family include common cuckoos, roadrunners, anis, koels, etc. Cuckoos are present in all continents except Antarctica . They prefer forests and woodlands in temperate and tropical regions. Most cuckoo species live in trees, while 15 species are terrestrial. Three ground-dwelling species are brood parasites: the pheasant cuckoo, the striped cuckoo, and the pavonine cuckoo. Two species of roadrunners are also among ground cuckoos. Most cuckoos have short wings and long tails. However, few migratory species have long wings, which assist them in migrating far away easily and quickly. In 2020, a cuckoo bird recorded one of the longest flights by any land bird. This cuckoo covered more than 7,500 miles (12,000 km) without stopping while migrating from southern Africa to Mongolia at 60 km/h. ( Source ) The favorite food of cuckoo birds is hairy caterpillars and other insects . Various species eat fruits, baby bir
20 Interesting Facts About Chipmunks
Chipmunks are tiny, striped members of the squirrel family . There are 25 species of chipmunks. Siberian chipmunks are present in northern parts of Asia and Eastern Europe, while all the other species are native to North America from Canada to Mexico. The color of their fur is from gray to reddish-brown. Their most prominent feature is light and dark stripes on their back and faces. Their long bushy tail accounts for nearly half of their body size. The stripes provide camouflage and protect diurnal chipmunks from birds and other predators. These stripes are similar to markings in the African striped mouse. Mice and rats split from squirrels 70 million years ago, but stripes in both these mammals are unrelated. ( Source ) Chipmunks are terrestrial animals and usually live on land. However, they can climb trees and swim. Eastern chipmunk is the largest, while the least chipmunk is the smallest among these rodents. Chipmunks dig burrows that can be three feet deep and extend up

Fixed income markets are very large. As of 31 December, 2016 there were over $12 trillion of outstanding corporate debt from companies in developed markets. Yet, despite the size of this asset class, little research has explored the role of fundamental analysis in the context of credit markets.
How much attention do investors pay to rounding in earnings forecasts?
Evidence exists that investors are subject to attentional constraints when making economic decisions and as a result focus on subsets of publicly available information that are more salient, i.e. that tend to stand out and are easier to process. Selective attention to salient stimuli can be economically justified if time and attention are costly.
Sometimes we ask ourselves: after the damages caused by the financial crisis, what has been done to limit the misbehaviour of those who run the banks? The answer is that a huge number of regulations has been introduced, but often they are bypassed. An example for all: the loophole in bankers' bonus cap.
The context of risk management and risk preparedness has changed in recent years.
In a nutshell, macroprudential regulation is made up of two building blocks: surveillance and supervision. Surveillance is concerned with identifying, assessing and monitoring the build-up of systemic risks, i.e., those regarding the financial stability of a country or region. Supervision is aimed at preventing, mitigating and managing systemic risks.

Q: How to get ParcelableExtra from RecyclerView I had one learning project that require RecyclerView item to send his detailed data to another activity with getParcelableExtra, my problem is when I clicked the item, the data is null on detailsActivity then I check it with the log.d, and yes it's null. any solution ;
here's the code main activity
class MainMyRecyclerViewActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    private lateinit var binding: ActivityMyrecyclerviewMainBinding
    private lateinit var rvHeroes: RecyclerView
    private val list = ArrayList<Hero>()

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        binding = ActivityMyrecyclerviewMainBinding.inflate(layoutInflater)
        setContentView(binding.root)
        rvHeroes = binding.rvMymainRv
        rvHeroes.setHasFixedSize(true)
        list.addAll(listHeroes)
        showRecyclerList()
    }

    private fun showRecyclerList() {
        //on change orientation adapter behavior
        if (applicationContext.resources.configuration.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE) {
            rvHeroes.layoutManager = GridLayoutManager(this, 2)
        } else {
            rvHeroes.layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(this)
        }

        val listHeroAdapter = ListHeroAdapter(list)
        rvHeroes.adapter = listHeroAdapter

        listHeroAdapter.setOnItemClickCallBack(object : OnItemClickCallback {
            override fun onItemClicked(data: Hero) {
                showSelectedHero(data)
                sendIntent(data)
            }
        })
    }

    private fun sendIntent(dataHero: Hero) {
        val intent = Intent(this@MainMyRecyclerViewActivity, DetailsActivity::class.java)
        intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.photo)
        intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.name)
        intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.description)

        startActivity(intent)
    }

    private val listHeroes: ArrayList<Hero>
        get() {
            val dataName = resources.getStringArray(R.array.data_name)
            val description = resources.getStringArray(R.array.data_description)
            val dataPhoto = resources.obtainTypedArray(R.array.data_photo)
            val listHero = ArrayList<Hero>()
            for (i in dataName.indices) {
                val hero = Hero(dataName[i], description[i], dataPhoto.getResourceId(i, -1))
                listHero.add(hero)
            }
            return listHero
        }

    private fun showSelectedHero(hero: Hero) {
        Toast.makeText(this, "you selected ${hero.name}", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
    }
}

here's the adapter
class ListHeroAdapter(private val listHero: ArrayList<Hero>) :
    RecyclerView.Adapter<ListViewHolder>() {

    private lateinit var onItemClickCallback: OnItemClickCallback

    fun setOnItemClickCallBack(onItemClickCallback: OnItemClickCallback) {
        this.onItemClickCallback = onItemClickCallback
    }

    override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): ListViewHolder {
        val view: View =
            LayoutInflater.from(parent.context).inflate(R.layout.item_myrecyclerview, parent, false)
        return ListViewHolder(view)
    }

    override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: ListViewHolder, position: Int) {
        val (name, description, photo) = listHero[position]
        holder.imgPhoto.setImageResource(photo)
        holder.tvName.text = name
        holder.tvDescription.text = description
        holder.itemView.setOnClickListener {
            onItemClickCallback.onItemClicked(listHero[holder.adapterPosition])
        }
    }

    override fun getItemCount(): Int = listHero.size
}

this the target activity
class DetailsActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    private lateinit var binding: ActivityDetailsBinding

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        binding = ActivityDetailsBinding.inflate(layoutInflater)
        setContentView(binding.root)

        val data = intent.getParcelableExtra<Hero>("DATA")

        binding.tvDetailsNameHero.text = data?.name
        binding.tvDetailsDeskription.text = data?.description
        data?.photo?.let { binding.ivDetails.setImageResource(it) }

        Log.d("details data", data?.name.toString())

    }
}

here's is data class I've using
@kotlinx.parcelize.Parcelize
data class Hero(
    var name: String,
    var description: String,
    var photo: Int
) : Parcelable

the interface
interface OnItemClickCallback {

    fun onItemClicked(data: Hero)
}

any suggestion will be good for me, thank you.

A: The problem is here
intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.photo)
intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.name)
intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.description)

You are sending single item in your intent as a String with the same key name
The first solution would be you need to send your class object
And
the second solution should send all extra parameters with different key names

the First solution You need to pass your model class object in intent

intent.putExtra("DATA",dataHero);

instead of this
private fun sendIntent(dataHero: Hero) {
        val intent = Intent(this@MainMyRecyclerViewActivity, DetailsActivity::class.java)
        intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.photo)
        intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.name)
        intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.description)

        startActivity(intent)
    }

The Second solution send data like this with different key names

intent.putExtra("PHOTO", dataHero.photo)
intent.putExtra("NAME", dataHero.name)
intent.putExtra("DESCRIPTION", dataHero.description)

and receive data like this in your details activity
val photo = intent.getStringExtra("PHOTO");
val name = intent.getStringExtra("NAME");
val description = intent.getStringExtra("DESCRIPTION");

A: I think you're problem is here.
private fun sendIntent(dataHero: Hero) {
    val intent = Intent(this@MainMyRecyclerViewActivity, DetailsActivity::class.java)
    intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.photo)
    intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.name)
    intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero.description)

    startActivity(intent)
}

What you're doing here is putting the value of dataHero.photo into the Bundle with the key DATA. Then you're overwriting that with dataHero.name, and then again with dataHero.description.
You can see from the image below that there are a lot of overloaded methods that use the same name but assign a different type.

So you are able to assign almost any value to a particular key (DATA), and the reason the call to retrieve the Parcelable is null, is because the value of DATA in the end is not a Parcelable implementation. The last assignment was of type String, which does not implement the Parcelable interface.

As mentioned by @AskNilesh use
intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero) instead.

A: Change sendIntent method to this:
private fun sendIntent(dataHero: Hero) {
    val intent = Intent(this@MainMyRecyclerViewActivity, DetailsActivity::class.java)
    intent.putExtra("DATA", dataHero)
    startActivity(intent)
}

Black Elk Peak, the highest point in South Dakota viewed from Black Elk Peak Trail, May 2018.
The U.S. Board on Geographic Names, which has jurisdiction in federal lands, officially changed the mountain's name from "Harney Peak" to "Black Elk Peak" on August 11, 2016, honoring Black Elk, the noted Lakota Sioux medicine man for whom the Wilderness Area is named.
Professional but unofficial measurements in 2016 found the highest natural rock to be at 7,231.32 feet (2,204.11 m) NAVD88 and the nearby secondary peak slightly lower at 7,229.41 feet (2,203.52 m).
This peak was called Hiŋháŋ Káǧa, or, "Owl maker," after rock formations that look like owls (and the association of owls with impending death by the Lakota Sioux). They dominated this region and occupied the territory at the time of European colonization. They considered it a sacred site within the Black Hills, which they call Pahá Sápa and Ȟé Sápa.
The mountain was named Harney Peak in 1855 by American Lieutenant Gouverneur K. Warren in honor of US General William S. Harney, his commander in a regional military expedition. In punitive retaliation for other Sioux raids, in September 1855 Harney's forces killed Brulé Sioux warriors, women and children in what Americans called the Battle of Blue Water Creek in Garden County, Nebraska.
Harney later commanded the United States military in the Black Hills area in the late 1870s. The Lakota had tried to get the name of the peak changed for 50 years, as Harney had massacred their people.
In 2014 the Sioux renewed their effort to get the name changed, in an effort led by Basil Brave Heart of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. A Korean War veteran, he felt that Harney had not honored the military with his action.
Some Lakota requested state officials in 2015 to reinstate their original name Hinhan Kaga for the peak. The Lakota Council of the Pine Ridge Reservation and descendants of Black Elk, a noted medicine man, supported naming it for him, as the national wilderness area around the peak is named for the shaman.
He became known beyond the Lakota in part through the book Black Elk Speaks (1932), written by John G. Neihardt from long talks with the shaman. South Dakota Governor Dennis Daugaard opposed the name change, as did other state officials, and no action was taken in 2015.
The U.S. Board on Geographic Names officially changed the mountain's name from "Harney Peak" to "Black Elk Peak" on August 11, 2016, by a unanimous vote of 12–0, with one abstention. On August 18, 2016, Gov. Daugaard announced that the state would accept the new name.
Hinhan Kaga and the Black Hills were protected within the Great Sioux Reservation established by the United States government in the Treaty of Fort Laramie in 1868; it covered most of the territory west of the Missouri River in South Dakota (the area now called West River). American settlement was concentrated east of the river, where there was more water for farming.
The first Americans believed to have reached the summit were a party led by General George Armstrong Custer in 1874, during the Black Hills expedition. He was looking for gold. The federal government took back the Black Hills and another strip of land in a new treaty in 1877. More than a decade later, it broke up the Great Sioux Reservation in 1889 into five smaller reservations, the same year that North Dakota and South Dakota were admitted as states to the Union. The government made some 9 million acres of former Lakota land available for purchase for ranching and homesteading. Most American settlement in West River did not start until the early 20th century. The area attracted many European immigrants as well as migrants from the East.
American settlers used Black Elk Peak as a fire lookout tower in 1911, with a wood crate placed at the summit for a seat. In 1920, a 12'x12' wood structure was built, and it was expanded to 16'x16' the following year. The federal Civilian Conservation Corps enlisted local men and completed construction of a stone fire tower in 1938, one of numerous projects in the state during the Great Depression. The Harney Peak fire tower was last staffed in 1967.
A United States post office was operated at Black Elk Peak from 1936 until 1942, and again from 1945 until 1946. The Harney Peak post office was reportedly one of the "most elevated post offices in the United States".
In May 2015 the South Dakota Board of Geographic Names recommended renaming Harney Peak as Hinhan Kaga, to remove the name of a commander known for massacring Sioux women and children at the Battle of Blue Water Creek  and to honor the original Lakota name for the mountain. At the end of the following month, the board reversed the recommendation that the peak be renamed saying that "there was no public consensus on a new name." The Lakota were divided on a preferred name, and Republican Governor Dennis Daugaard and some other Americans opposed any name change.
The recommendation for renaming went to the federal US Board on Geographic Names. The federal board acknowledged that the name was of concern to the Lakota, and its spokesman said, "In this case, the board felt that the name was derogatory or offensive, being that it was on a holy site of the Native Americans." In a decision published August 11, 2016, the United States Board on Geographic Names adopted the name "Black Elk Peak."
The summit can be reached from Sylvan Lake, Camp Remington, Highway 244, Palmer Creek Rd., Mount Rushmore, or Horse Thief Lake. From the trailhead at Sylvan Lake in Custer State Park, to the summit and back is about 7 miles (11 km). This is the shortest, least strenuous, and most popular route. No permit is required for use of the first portion of the trail. However, the United States Forest Service requires hikers to obtain a permit at a self-service kiosk located at the entrance to the Black Elk Wilderness area en route to the summit.
An old stone tower, once used as a fire lookout tower, is located at the summit. The ashes of Valentine McGillycuddy were interred near the base of the tower and a plaque reads, "Valentine McGillycuddy, Wasicu Wakan." Wasicu Wakan is Lakota for "Holy White Man."

California Red-legged Frog
May 1, 2012 //
Sitting next to the water's edge is the California Red-legged Frog (Rana draytonii). This species of frog is native to California and is classified as Vulnerable (VU) on the IUCN Red List.(1) The frog gets its name from the red color that can be seen on the underside of the hind legs. The overall coloring of the frog ranges from brown to red, the red becoming more prominent as the frog ages.
The California Red-Legged Frogs were among the most abundant amphibians in California until the late 19th century when the arrival of California gold miners caused them to be almost eaten into extinction. About 80,000 frogs per year were consumed by the booming human population.(2) Today the frog population has declined seriously. However, in March 2010, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced 1,600,000 acres of protected land for the species throughout California.(3) Check out the frog in this short video.

Pyne's Ground Plum
March 29, 2012 //
Pyne's Ground Plum (Astragalus bibullatus) is a beautiful species of flowering plant[1] which is endemic to the cedar glades of Middle Tennessee, near the rapidly growing city of Murfreesboro. These glades occur on rocky limestone outcrops with exposed bedrock or very shallow soil, where trees are largely unable to grow. Pyne's ground plum grows along the deeper soiled glade margins or in partially-shaded areas (2). The flowers turn to reddish orange fruit (that resembles a plum) in late May through early June. Classified as Endangered on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Plants 1997 (3) and listed as Endangered on the U.S. Endangered Species Act 1967 (4), the plant is most definitely at risk. Primary threats to this wildflower are generally residential or commercial development, as well as livestock grazing and more competitive vegetation(5). Attempts have been made to establish a new population at Stones River National Battlefield, TN, and there are high hopes that the new population will be self-sustaining (6).

Have you ever tried to catch a grasshopper? It's pretty hard; and there are a couple of reasons why. For one thing, most can jump 20 times their length – and some species more than that. The other reason is that grasshoppers have five, yes five, eyes!
I believe this brightly colored little guy is a Differential grasshopper (Melanoplus differentialis). I found him in action eating his lunch in a friend's garden. There are 548 species of North American grasshoppers, so it can be hard to keep track of which one is which. Most grasshoppers are considered pests because they can destroy crops, however, they have a wide range of natural predators and also can be beneficial when they eat weeds. Instead of lungs, grasshoppers have tiny holes, called spiracles, in their thoraxes and abdomens. Next time you see a grasshopper, look at it closely. You can see the abdomen move in and out as it breaths.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe How One Film Led to a MultibillionDollar Franchise
30 Sec Answer: The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is the highest-grossing film franchise in history. It began with the release of 2008's Iron Man, a movie that went on to become a critical and commercial success, launching an entire universe of interconnected films and stories.
The History of Marvel Movies Before the MCU
How Iron Man Led To A New Era Of Superhero Films
The Impact Of The MCU On The Film Industry
The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has become one of the most successful movie franchises of all time. Starting with Iron Man in 2008, it has grown to encompass over 20 movies and several television shows, with more projects in the works. But what makes this cinematic universe so successful? How did it come about? This article will explore the history and impact of the MCU.
Before the launch of the MCU, there had been a few attempts at bringing Marvel superheroes to life on the big screen. In 1997, Blade became the first major comic book adaptation since 1989's Batman and marked the beginning of Hollywood's modern superhero boom. After that came X-Men (2000), Spider-Man (2002), Daredevil (2003), Hulk (2003), Fantastic Four (2005), Ghost Rider (2007), and Punisher: War Zone (2008). While some were better than others, none of these films really created an ongoing narrative or connected storylines – something that would be essential for any sort of "cinematic universe" to work.
In 2008, Marvel Studios released its first self-produced film: Iron Man. Starring Robert Downey Jr., Iron Man was a massive success both critically and commercially. It earned over $585 million worldwide and kicked off a new era of superhero movies based on Marvel comics.
Following Iron Man's success, Marvel set out to create their own shared universe like DC Comics had done before them with Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy. They began by introducing Nick Fury (Samuel L Jackson) in Iron Man 2, which provided an important connection between Tony Stark/Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) and other heroes like Captain America (Chris Evans) and Thor (Chris Hemsworth). By 2012, they had released three solo films as well as two Avengers movies that brought together characters from across their universe into one epic story.
Since its launch in 2008, the MCU has gone on to become one of the most profitable franchises ever made. According to Box Office Mojo, all 23 films in the series have collectively grossed over $22 billion worldwide – making it far and away the highest-grossing franchise in history. Not only that, but many critics have praised the series for its strong writing and consistent level of quality despite being based on decades old source material.
The success of the MCU also inspired other studios to create their own shared universes featuring comic book characters such as Warner Bros.' DC Extended Universe or Universal Pictures' MonsterVerse. These films are typically expensive endeavors due to their large casts and special effects; however, they can also generate massive returns if done right. For example, Disney's Avengers: Endgame became the highest grossing film ever made with over $2 billion in ticket sales alone.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is one of Hollywood's biggest successes and has changed how filmmakers approach adapting comic books into feature films. It proved that taking risks can pay off when creating a world full of interconnected stories that audiences want to invest in for years at a time – something we've seen other studios emulate with varying degrees of success. Ultimately, Iron Man sparked something special back in 2008 that continues to reverberate throughout popular culture today; without it, who knows where we'd be now?
Is Thunderbolts coming to MCU? Is SpiderMan No Way Home on Amazon Prime? Who is the new Iron Man? Does Dr Strange remember Peter Parker?


VMware TV published a couple of recordings of breakout sessions presented at VMworld Europe. The recordings can be watched for free. No account needed.
The interesting thing to note is that VMware seems to be publishing more content of VMware than previously. I believe last year about ten videos were posted. Now sessions that were held at October 23 are put online on the same day. I believe this is very nice and VMware follows Microsoft who publishes content of all TechEd events within 24 hours.

It's a random post today. Random picture post, that is.
On Sunday we drove to Plymouth and saw brant and seagulls. And seagulls and brant. There were a lot.
I love the combination of my husband and a telephoto lens.
Don't you laugh at this one! I bought Mason a harness so that he can be outside with us. The success of this venture remains to be seen.
You just never know what to expect when brother-in-law Randy shows up with the backhoe.
The thermometer in our kitchen yesterday. It sure felt like summer. We celebrated by having lobster rolls.
A flowering tree at Borderland State Park. So pretty!
Mason doesn't look too happy, but maybe he'll get used to it and being outdoors. Love the tree!
mason doesn't look happy. we took Pumpkin out on the deck yesterday and well, she ran right back in the house. (secret fear of squirrels).
back hoe, huh? Whatcha diggin'?
Wow, 90 degrees yesterday! You've skipped spring and gone directly to summer. We had some nice sun yesterday but then the storms returned. Sog, sog, soggy!
Yeah – I'm thinking Mason din't like the experiment!
I'm really trying NOT to laugh, but what I really want to know? How on EARTH did you get the harness ON Mason???? The Meezer would have informed the entire neighborhood that she was being ABUSED!!! (at the top of her lungs) and then become 11 pounds of STIFF. Upon which she'd have bolted under the bed.
I think you're supposed to start using those things while they're still kittens…we had a wonderful, elderly tuxedo kitty at the vet who took a twice daily "constitutional" in his bright red harness…and LOVED IT!
Phantastic Photos!! Dale's not laughing at Mason is he? I've put a harness on Ace a couple times and lived to tell about it!
My house was pretty warm too, but not quite that warm. Yuck.
It is a very random day isn't it? Love the pictures. Just think… on more week!
Your hubby looks soooo happy in the photo! Great pic! Was he laughing at the look on your face when you saw BIL arrive with the backhoe???
Can't believe it is 90 there… here in 'bama it has been in the low 80's!
Dale looks so much better! Has he fully recovered?
90 in the kitchen? Oh mama. No. Hello Air Conditioning!
my car said it was 86 degrees yesterday. happily it was only 72 in the house.
and, that is one fancy backhoe. our backhoe doesn't have a covered cab.
will you please let me know how mason does with the harness? i would love for my cat to be able o go outside!
I love the harness. We trained a cat on a leash in West Philadelphia, and I walked her around the block a few times. I had to pick her up when dogs appeared. The harness looks much more comfortable. She liked it best in the backyard when we gardened. Now our kitty goes outside by himself; recently staying out all night. Makes me a little nervous.
We are lucky to live near borderland. enjoy.
Good luck with Mason and the harness. I once had a Siamese, and was able to leash train him. He had a slight vision problem, and stairs posed a problem. But, once outside, he LOVED it.
I love Mason's harness. We have a fine cat who has an illness that won't let him get shots so we have to harness him and take him for walks. Where did you get that jacket-like harness?
And it sure looks like spring in the Northeast to me!
I bought one of those for Pumpkin and he practically turned himself inside out trying to get it off!
Don't let Mason see pix of my cats outdoors. He'll get jealous.
Would you please send the specs on where I can get a harness like that? My big guy, Max, has been trained to walk on a leash & now I'd like to train the young boy, Beau, but it's hard to find the proper type of harness. Those 's' types are no good, & yours looks intriguing. BTW, try 'clickertraining.com' for some help in getting your cat used to a harness & leash and for the best info ever on how to train (read: communicate) with your furry buddy. This lady helped to develop the training method used on dolphins & she really knows her stuff. I've used it very successfully with my own cats & love it. I'm so happy I ordered the book/kit. It's changed our lives together.
Yum, lobster rolls. You are making me jealous. But I will have a crab cake for you instead.

Maschine brennt ist ein Pop-Rap-Song des  österreichischen Musikers Falco aus dem Jahr 1982. Es war die zweite Singleauskopplung aus dem Studioalbum Einzelhaft und ein Top-Ten-Hit in Österreich und Deutschland.

Entstehung und Inhalt
Maschine brennt wurde von Falco gemeinsam mit Robert Ponger geschrieben und produziert. Der Songtext handelt vordergründig von einem Flug in einem Flugzeug und könnte so auf Falcos Flugangst hin interpretiert werden. Eine weitere Bedeutungsebene bieten jedoch die Motive Tod und Verfall im Allgemeinen, die mehrere von Falcos Songs kennzeichnen. Insbesondere kann der Song aussagen, dass von gesellschaftlichem, sozialen Niedergang vor allem die Besitzlosen betroffen sind, wohingegen denjenigen mit "Fallschirm", also den Reichen und Mächtigen, dadurch ein Ausweg offensteht. Im Text wird zudem auf den Text der erfolgreichen Single Der Kommissar angespielt. Es handelt sich um einen Midtempo-Pop-Rap-Song, der nur sparsam mit cleanen, teils funkigen Gitarren sowie Keyboards untermalt wird und somit Elemente der Neuen deutschen Welle aufgreift. Die Strophen sind gerappt, der Refrain wird gesungen.

Veröffentlichung und Promotion
Die Single erschien am 29. Juni 1982 bei GiG. Auf der B-Seite ist Falcos Version von Ganz Wien enthalten. Die Singleversion erschien auch auf zahlreichen Kompilationen. Eine Maxiversion, die Specially Remixed 12"-Version, ist 4:55 Minuten lang und erschien 1982 sowie 1983 als B-Seite der Singles Auf der Flucht bzw. On the Run. Ebenso erschien 1982 eine 3:53 Minuten lange Specially Remixed 7"-Version. Eine offiziell veröffentlichte Liveaufnahme aus der Wiener Stadthalle von 1982 ist 4:11 Minuten lang.

Mit Maschine brennt trat Falco erstmals in der ZDF-Hitparade auf; er konnte bei der Abstimmung des Fernsehpublikums per TED am 6. September 1982 jedoch nicht Platz eins bis drei erreichen, die für einen weiteren Auftritt mit dem Song nötig gewesen wären.

Musikvideo
Ein Musikvideo wurde gedreht und unter anderem am 7. Juli 1982 in der Fernsehsendung Okay im ORF ausgestrahlt.

Charts und Chartplatzierungen
Der Song erreichte Top-10-Platzierungen in Europa, unter anderem Platz vier in Norwegen und Österreich, oder auch Platz zehn in Deutschland. Er erreichte zudem Platz neun der US-Dance-Charts.

Coverversionen
Coverversionen existieren unter anderem von Marco und The Red System.

For me a typical laptop computer will not do. I need one that works properly for all of the graphic design and photo modifying tasks I've to throw at it. High-end Graphical and CPU processing energy are a should in addition to a display screen that's colour correct. Briefly, the source code and the appliance design is created for the software for its transition to the user neighborhood. We are also one of many unique MySpace bot companies and have been offering service to thousands of happy MySpace customers since April, 2006! Whether you wish to record one item or a complete warehouse full, eBay itemizing software for Mac is offered to help you. It is sometimes proprietary to the processor manufacturer, and any obligatory correctional microcode software updates are provided by them to users (which is less expensive than transport replacement processor hardware). Imagine if you happen to wound up owning a profitable native social networking web site in your space's nightlife scene.
Most individuals in the present day in all probability couldn't think about their lives without fashionable technology. In different phrases, it's an method to media that would be better characterised as pre rather than publish-McLuhanite (within the art historic sense of pre-Raphaelite) in that the complete co-implications of human beings and technology is treated in a monolithic, rather than in a complex means.
While the tv as a bit of technology may very well be used for any variety of purposes from a light-weight for the room to that of a radio, but that was not the way it was adopted for use as a result of its most novel feature was the broadcast of the visual medium (Postman, 1985).
Possibly, as an alternative, (if there were a Devil at all), it's work could be to make folks really feel progress and technology and make them wish to return to a time when individuals lived in so much more ignorance than they do right now, and when there was nothing anybody might do about illnesses, circumstances, accidents that in the present day are curable (or on the victims are able to be helped by technology in some way).
Not only are children changing into addicted to technology reminiscent of video games and cell phone apps (and Fb, after all) however our institutions now have satellites orbiting Earth, rockets and missiles being shot into space, cell phone networks and infrastructures which would all be adversely affected if one thing devastating was to happen to the technology.
