There are special rules if a parent gifts significant amounts of money to their children which results in them receiving bank interest of more than £100 (before tax) annually. If this is the case, the parent is liable to pay tax on all the interest if it's above their own Personal Savings Allowance.
in a Junior ISA or Child Trust Fund.
Children born after 31 August 2002 and before 3 January 2011 were entitled to a Child Trust Fund (CTF) account provided they met the necessary conditions. Junior ISAs were introduced after CTFs were phased out to encourage parents to save money for their children's future. However, unlike the CTF accounts, the government does not contribute any public funds.
As mentioned above, any income from CTF's or Junior ISA's is exempt from Income Tax and CGT on the child or the parent even where the invested funds came from the child's parents. The 2018-19 subscription limit for both CTFs and Junior ISAs is £4,260.

Stafford, Barnegat Bank Robbery Suspect Collared in New York
Courtesy of: Stafford Township Police Department
A 39-year-old Pennsylvania resident has been charged with the recent robberies of the Wells Fargo Bank in Stafford Township and the M&T Bank in Barnegat Township. The Wells Fargo incident occurred on March 16 while the Barnegat robbery took place March 29, according to authorities.
Barnegat Police Chief Keith Germain said that on April 14 at 3 p.m., members of the Barnegat Police Crime Reduction Unit along with members of the Nassau County Police Department Bureau of Special Operations and Nassau County Robbery Squad in New York arrested Kim Quoc Nguyen for robbery, terroristic threats and theft in connection with the holdup. Nguyen was taken into custody in New Hyde Park, N.Y., after a short foot pursuit.
Germain said Nguyen was identified as the suspect on April 2 after an exhaustive investigation by Barnegat Police Detective James Purcell, Detective William Hetrick and the crime reduction unit. At that time, an extradition warrant was issued, but location was not known.
Germain said the search for Nguyen and continuing investigation over the next two weeks took Barnegat officers to several different areas including southern New Jersey, Philadelphia and New York City.
Further investigation by Barnegat officers resulted in a vehicle connected to Nguyen being located in Queens, N.Y. The subsequent investigation and surveillance led to Nguyen's discovery and arrest.
Nguyen is currently being held in the Nassau County Correctional Center pending extradition.
Germain lauded the outstanding police work and cooperation that led to Nguyen's arrest.
"This is precisely the kind of collaboration and teamwork we strive for in law enforcement," he said. "More than a dozen federal, state, county and local agencies from three states worked together and leveraged their individual knowledge and expertise to safely bring this subject into custody." —E.E.

Q: Android - Setting bitmap collision detection after rotation by matrix How do I create code for collision detection on a bitmap rotated by a matrix?
canvas.drawBitmap(mAnimation, mainMatrix, null);

mainMatrix is derived from a PathMeasure so i do not know the rotation
The bitmap is rotated around x=0,y=0  and thus a circle around the centre will not work (or at least be too big)
thanks

A: Matrix has a method to map points and rectangles, you could use that to know the result of the transformation.

With the release of their long-awaited new album looming, Metallica unleashed a wave of 10 vastly different music videos yesterday afternoon through early this morning.
All the songs can be found on Hardwired...to Self-Destruct, which will be released Friday, November 18, via Blackened Recordings.
This means that pretty much every new original song on Hardwired, including the previously issued "Lords of Summer," has its very own music video. The band tapped a host of directors to create the often-engaging clips, including Tom Kirk, Claire Marie Vogel, Jonas Åkerlund and Robert Valley.
Below, you can check out every existing Hardwired...to Self-Destruct music video, including the three that were released before yesterday's onslaught—and the four that were premiered today (and everything that came out yesterday!). If you have a favorite, please let us know in the comments section below.

Buffs Ready For Final Big 12 Championship
Oct 29, 2010 by BoulderRunner	in CU
CU Cross Country
The University of Colorado cross country teams are ready for the 15th Annual Big 12 Championship on Saturday, October 30 at the Oklahoma State University Cross Country Course.
Admission is free to the public.
The women will start the day at 10 a.m. with the 6-kilometer run and the men will run the 8k at 11 a.m. A short awards presentation will follow with the top 15 individuals earning All-Big 12 honors.
This will be the final Big 12 championship for the Buffs who have a rich tradition of winning team and individual titles. The CU men have won 12 of 14 conference titles, while the women have taken 11. The Buffs have won 17 individual titles; the men taking eight and the women with nine. The last time a male won the conference crown was Brent Vaughn in 2007 and Jenny Barringer won the title last year.
This season's top male has been Joe Bosshard. He won the Rocky Mountain Shootout and was seventh in the white race at the NCAA Pre-National meet. He has been named the CU Athlete and the Big 12 Runner of the Week. Bosshard raced to a 19th-place finish at the Big 12 meet last season.
The Buffs returned a large number from last year's squad, including seniors Richard Medina and Matt Tebo. Juniors Christian Thompson and Andy Wacker have been making huge contributions to the team over the last two seasons. Thompson was named All-Big 12 in 2009 after placing ninth. Martin Medina and Aric Van Halen have also raced at the conference level and look to score points for CU.
Laura Tremblay has been CU's top women's scorer this season. She won the Rocky Mountain Shootout and placed second at the NCAA Pre-Nats in the 'white' race and was subsequently named the CU Athlete and Big 12 Runner of the Week. Tremblay earned her first All-Big 12 honor in 2009 by placing 15th overall at CU's No. 4 scorer and looks to improve on that this season.
Laura Thweatt, the only senior on the team, will race in her last conference meet and has been a scorer for the team since joining the team as a freshman. She had her best outing at the Big 12 Championship last year, finishing 12th overall to earn her first all-conference honor.
Emma Coburn, Katie Cumming and Allie McLaughlin also raced in 2009. McLaughlin was the Big 12 Newcomer of the Year after finishing second behind Barringer. Coburn was 22nd and Cumming finished 33rd. Redshirt freshman Shalaya Kipp has played a big part this season, finishing second for the Buffs at pre-nats, 12th overall. Camille Logan and true freshman Rachel Viger have also been a part of this year's success.
Both of CU's squads placed second at the 2009 championship. The women were just 14 points outside of first with 52 total points, while the men were 32 points from the top of the podium (56).
The Buffs will have some tough competition as usual. Texas Tech has won the women's championship the last two years. TTU is ranked No. 4. Iowa State is ranked No. 11, Texas is No. 15 and OSU is No. 27. The men's side also looks to be challenging. OSU, the reigning NCAA Champion, has won the last two conference titles and is ranked second in the nation. The Cowboys will have an advantage since the race will be on their home course. Oklahoma is No. 5 and Texas is the other nationally ranked opponent, coming in at 30th.
Following the conference championships, both rosters will be cut to seven over the next couple of weeks before the NCAA Mountain Region Championships, Saturday, November 13, in Salt Lake City, Utah, and the NCAA Championships, November 22, in Terre Haute, Ind.

New York Times bestselling author LISA KLEYPAS delivers the unforgettable tale of a strong-willed beauty who encounters her match in one of London's most notorious—yet irresistible—rakes . . .
An eccentric wallflower . . .
Most debutantes dream of finding a husband. Lady Pandora Ravenel has different plans.

A cynical rake . . .
After years of evading marital traps with ease, Gabriel, Lord St. Vincent, has finally been caught by a rebellious girl who couldn't be less suitable. In fact, she wants nothing to do with him.

A perilous plot . . .
After succumbing to Gabriel's skilled and sensuous persuasion, Pandora agrees to become his bride.

All-Ireland Football Championship previews
After a brief sojourn in America, the 2009 Football Championship returns home this weekend, with the Ulster and Lei
IrishCentral Staff Writers
After a brief sojourn in America, the 2009 Football Championship returns home this weekend, with the Ulster and Leinster competitions starting on Sunday afternoon.
Ulster SFC First Round
Enniskillen: Fermanagh v Down
May 17, 3.30pm
Fermanagh and Down will kick start the Ulster SFC this Sunday in Brewster Park, Enniskillen. It will be the first game of the 2009 Championship on Irish soil after Mayo beat New York last week in the Bronx.
The Fermanagh-Down clash on Sunday is being anticipated anxiously by football fans all over the country, who have been deprived of the oxygen of Championship action since the All-Ireland final last September.
The two sides haven't met since June 22, 2003 in St. Tiernan's Park, when Down came out on top by 2-10 to 0-11 before losing the Ulster Final to Tyrone in the replay.
The question on everyone's mind for Sunday is who is going to win, the team who came close to winning the Anglo Celt Cup last year or the Down men who beat Tyrone in the first round of the Ulster SFC.
Erne Manager Malachy O'Rourke is not prepared to invest too much thought in the fact that his side have home advantage.
"Maybe things went right for us last year but there is absolutely no guarantee that this will be the case again on Sunday. Down will travel with considerable confidence, we know, and we must be ready for the challenge," says O'Rourke.
The Fermanagh manager has included a few surprise selections for Sunday's upcoming game, one of which sees 2008 goalkeeper Ronan Gallagher being replaced by Chris Breen.
The introduction of Ryan Keenan, younger brother of Daryl, who will debut at corner forward, will bring some fresh legs to the forwards while Ryan Carson will take the number 14
Shane McCabe will be a big loss to the side after his superb cameo performances in last year's Ulster campaign. Ryan McCluskey rejoined the panel two weeks ago after playing Irish League football, but will not feature in this Sunday's game while corner back Shane Goan will not be starting.
Fermanagh keep their experienced defence line but will be missing All-Star Barry Owens, who has not being named in Sunday's line-up. The Teemore Shamrocks could yet feature as a sub, and his ability to lift the team could prove vital as he demonstrated with a key goal against Derry that lifted Fermanagh to the Ulster final last year.
"Barry's ongoing absence is a big blow, no doubt about that. He is making a recovery now from knee surgery and we have been forced to play without him for a while," said Fermanagh defender Niall Bogue.
"He is badly missed in every respect, to be honest. No one will be working harder to make up for the loss of Owens than Bogue, though - after all, he feels he has lost time to make up."
Meanwhile, Fermanagh's captain Martin McGrath has recovered from a knee injury and will take his spot at midfield alongside James Sherry.
Down have several injury worries, the main one being Benny Coulter who remains major doubt. The Mayobridge man has been unable to train due to a heel injury he picked up in the National League final. Liam Doyle will definitely be sidelined for Ross Carr's side.
Taking into consideration that Down were the only team to give Tyrone a taste of defeat last year, Carr will be hoping that the Mourne men can reproduce that epic performance in Brewster Park.
"Let's be honest, teams like Kerry, Tyrone, Galway, Dublin, Cork and Armagh generally do not suffer from away day blues...with the pressures of playing on their opponents' grounds. The crowd is close to the playing arena at Brewster Park and we know that the home fans can make their voices heard," said Carr.
Whatever advantages Fermanagh may take from the home venue, Carr predicts this will be outweighed by his own players' capacity to rise to the occasion.
Skipper Dan Gordon should his position at centre of the field while Declan Rooney, Aidan Carr and Luke Howard will try their best to stop Fermanagh newcomers Daryl Keenan and Ryan Carson.
Down's strength in finding the net will be a crucial factor for the Fermanagh defense to deal with, while the Down tactic of playing 'out in front' will be the deciding factor if Fermanagh succumb to staying behind their men. Fermanagh's 2008 crusade caused massive upset, getting the upper hand against an experienced Monaghan side.
Malachy O'Rourke has named an experienced Fermanagh side, but the loss of Barry Owens is not going to go unnoticed, whereas Down have been coming for a while and may feel that 2009 could be a big year for them.
The winners will progress to a quarter-final tie with Cavan on June 6th.
Fermanagh: C Breeen; P Sherry, S Lyons; H Brady, D Kelly, S McDermott, T McElroy; M McGrath, J Sherry; R Keenan,C McElroy, M Little; D Keenan, R Carson, E Maguire. Down: TBC Verdict: Down
Leinster SFC First Round
Parnell Park: Carlow v Louth
Carlow and Louth get the Leinster SFC off to a low-key start in Parnell Park on Sunday afternoon.
Both sides are coming off the back of underwhelming National League campaigns and will be looking for a morale-boosting Championship win.
Somewhat unfairly, Carlow have been dubbed the weakest team in the competition outside London and New York, although the final National League Division Four standings would appear to back up that assertion.
The Barrowsiders finished ahead of London and perennial strugglers Kilkenny in the table, ending up with just four points having been beaten comprehensively on a number of occasions.
Manager Luke Dempsey, who took over the team this year, has not been helped by a number of withdrawals by key players and his inability to lure Thomas Walsh back to his native county from Wicklow.
As a result, Dempsey has named a callow team short on Championship experience. He has included four newcomers, with Shane Redmond, Ciaran Nolan, Sean Gannon and Shane Myers all set for their first taste of the Championship football.
However, they do look strong in attack, with Mark Carpenter, Derek Hayden and free-taker Enda McCormack providing the nous and experience at this level that is lacking further back the pitch.
Their manager will be hoping Sunday's encounter won't prove as traumatic an experience as when Meath destroyed them at the same stage last year.
Louth go into this game with little to indicate how they are going to perform this summer. They were erratic in Allianz NFL Division Three, winning three and losing four of their matches. Indeed, they were in relegation trouble right down to their final game.
Eamonn McEneaney, the Louth boss, has also been forced to name two debutants in his team, with Padraig Rath and Gerard Hoey included in defence for their first starts in the Championship.
Rath starts despite concerns over his fitness, while midfielder Paddy Keenan also gets the after struggling with injury over the last few weeks.
In attack, Aaron Hoey is ruled out after tearing his hamstring, although McEneaney has a solid full-forward line in the prolific Darren Clarke, Shane Lennon and Colm Judge, who missed much of the league through injury. A sign of their strength is that JP Rooney can only command a spot on the bench.
McEneaney says Carlow deserve respect despite their status as minnows in the competition.
"We have stood back and taken a good look at Carlow and they have a number of players who have been to a Leinster minor final and an All-Ireland Colleges final with Knockbeg," said McEneaney.
"They are a relatively young side and Luke Dempsey is only starting to make his mark with them. He's only been there a few months, but they improved an awful lot over the course of the league."
Louth, on paper, are a superior outfit to the Barrowsiders, who look short on experience and will have to rely heavily on veteran wing-forward. Carlow's defence is massively changed from the last few years and with the Louth attack capable of doing damage, it could be a tough first championship game in charge for new manager Dempsey.
Louth: S Reynolds; P Rath, D Finnegan, J O'Brien; D Crilly, M Fanning, G Hoey; B White, P Keenan; R Finnegan, R Carroll, D Reid; C Judge, S Lennon, D Clarke. Carlow: J Clarke; S Myers, J Hayden, C Nolan; S Gannon, B English, S Redmond; J Murphy, W Minchin; B Murphy, D Hayden, JJ Smith; E McCormack, D St Ledger, M Carpenter. Verdict: Louth

Viyo focuses on the most important weapon that your cat has to fight bacteria: its immune system. That immune system is located mainly in the digestive tract. That's why Viyo acts precisely where it really matters.
How does it work? One 30-ml portion of Viyo contains 0.1 g of pre-biotic fibres, which is exactly what your cat needs to grow strong. There are approximately 50 different types of bacteria in the intestines that contribute to proper digestion. The fibres in Viyo feed these bacteria and thus contribute to strengthening your pet's natural resistance. Viyo's preparations also give specialised animal feed more of a chance to work properly.
Because it is best to consume FOSim+® as a liquid, we at Viyo have put it in a drink that cats love. Plus, you don't have to change anything about your kitty's diet. Your cat's resistance to diseases and problems will improve by the day. Very simple and very effective.
You'll soon notice that your cat's digestion is improving. Its coat is soft and shiny, its stool firmer and it will generally give more of an impression of being a high-spirited, happy cat. Depending on how fit your animal is now, you should be seeing results in between one and four weeks.

Trump: Clinton Would Start WW3
Posted in Other | 27-Oct-16 | Source: Globalo News
Is WW3 around the corner?
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has come out and said his rival Hillary Clinton's foreign policy directives would start Word War Three over Syria.
Trump said the United States should focus on defeating ISIS, rather than removing Bashar al-Assad, Syria's brutal President.
This would spell conflict with Russian jets in the region.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Marine General Joseph Dunford told lawmakers a "no-fly zone" in Syria could spell war with Russia.
"For us to control all of the airspace in Syria it would require us to go to war, against Syria and Russia," General Dunford told the Senate Arms Services Committee. He went on to say, "That's a pretty fundamental decision that certainly I'm not going to make".
Clinton has come out, most notably at the final presidential debate, in favour of a no-fly zone. "A no-fly zone can save lives and hasten the end of the conflict," she said on stage in Nevada on the 20th of October.
However, in a 2013 speech to Goldman Sachs, Mrs Clinton said that establishing a no-fly zone would "kill a lot of Syrians" – this according to the recently leaked transcript.
"You're going to end up in World War Three over Syria if we listen to Hillary Clinton," Mr Trump said.
"You're not fighting Syria any more, you're fighting Syria, Russia and Iran, all right? Russia is a nuclear country, but a country where the nukes work as opposed to other countries that talk."
However, the Clinton campaign has pushed back against this dangerous rhetoric.
"National security experts on both sides of the aisle have denounced Donald Trump as dangerously ill-prepared and temperamentally unfit to serve as commander-in-chief," Clinton spokesman Jesse Lehrich said.
"Once again, he is parroting Putin's talking points and playing to Americans' fears, all while refusing to lay out any plans of his own for defeating ISIS or alleviating humanitarian suffering in Syria. Moreover, this incendiary attack is aimed at a policy that his own running mate, Mike Pence, strongly supports."
As of yet, Trump has not laid out a clear strategy for defeating ISIS, or for easing the conflict in the region.
I literally just read about Russian 4th graders being told WW3 will start if Hillary Clinton is elected. Who is feeding Trump???????? propaganda?? https://t.co/BDHKqcEUmX

Greinke homers, D-backs stop Dodgers' win streak
BASEBALL-MLB-LAD-ARI/RECAP
Reuters America Wire
David Peralta drove in the go-ahead run in a four-run eighth inning, pitcher Zack Greinke hit a home run, and the Arizona Diamondbacks stopped the Los Angeles Dodgers' six-game winning streak with an 8-5 victory Monday night in Phoenix.
Arizona's Ketel Marte, returning to the lineup after missing two games because of a groin cramp, led off the eighth with a bloop single behind third base off reliever Dylan Floro (2-2). Eduardo Escobar moved him to second with a single, and Peralta then lined a high fastball to center for a 5-4 lead.
Nick Ahmed hit a bases-loaded sacrifice fly later in the inning, and Tim Locastro's two-run single made it 8-4, with all the runs in the inning charged to Floro.
Yoan Lopez (1-1) pitched a scoreless eighth inning for his first career victory in 45 appearances. T.J. McFarland gave up a run in the ninth before closer Greg Holland came in to strike out pinch hitter Russell Martin for his 11th save of the season and the 200th of his career.
Greinke gave up three runs in the first inning, but the D-backs' offense picked him up in the bottom of the frame when Christian Walker took Clayton Kershaw deep for a three-run home run with two outs.
Greinke gave himself the lead in the second inning when he lined a homer — his career-high third of the season — to left field. On the mound, he gave up four runs and seven hits in six-plus innings. He struck out six and walked one.
Kershaw went six innings, allowing four runs on seven hits and a walk. He struck out two.
Marte went 2-for-4 to tie Luis Gonzalez's franchise record with seven consecutive multi-hit games. The Dodgers' Cody Bellinger had two hits and was intentionally walked twice.
The Dodgers tied the game in the seventh inning when the second reliever of the inning, Yoshihisa Hirano, walked Max Muncy on four pitches with the bases loaded to make it 4-4. Hirano then struck out Chris Taylor looking on a 3-2 fastball at the knees to end the inning.
Greinke got out of trouble in the sixth, striking out the final three batters — Taylor, Enrique Hernandez and pinch hitter Matt Beaty — after the Dodgers had two on and no out.
In the Dodgers' first inning, Bellinger hit an RBI double, Muncy drove in a run with a groundout and Taylor delivered an RBI double.

Changes may occur in the client's thinking, feeling and/or behaviour. It is an psycho-educational process and anyone can benefit from participating in counselling.

If you have been following my journal entries for awhile, you may recall that back in early July I mentioned a new late-night hobby, (devouring food blogs), in my post, "Stop! Put down that hoe, and let's eat". Well, as the weeks passed my newfound interest in cooking, and the vibrant online community of foodies, led me to a few intriguing wine blogs. While some of these websites turned out to be bit dry and formal, I recently made a more effervescent discovery. A few weeks ago, I chanced upon Bubbly Girl, a wonderful website and blog written by Maria Hunt. Maria's lovely book, The Bubbly Bar, is a collection of cocktail recipes made with champagne and sparkling wine. Many of her beautiful and festive drinks use fresh ingredients, including berries, herbs, fruit, and my personal favorite, flowers! While visiting Maria's blog, I discovered several cocktails calling for rose petals and/or rose water. In fact, her Moonwalk Cocktail, and her signature Love in the Afternoon, (featured on the cover of the book), both contain rose water, among other ingredients. Everything on her website looked delightful, but when I stumbled upon Maria's recipe for a Vintage Rose Cocktail, I knew I just had to try it. Unfortunately, with autumn's first frost right around the corner, time was running out. By the time I found this recipe, the last day of summer was less than a week away. In order to share this with you, I had to move quick. So after taste-testing this delicious, rose-bubble potion, (you can not imagine the sacrifices I make for this blog), I wrote Maria a quick email explaining how I thought my readers might appreciate her rose-infused champagne cocktail, and asking permission to reprint her recipe. Maria graciously responded with a warm and generous note, kindly offering to share. What a lovely, talented lady. Thank you Maria!
No doubt, many of you have an ample supply of roses. But it is getting late in the season, and some of you may need to borrow a few petals from a friend, or pay a visit to your local florist in order to make this drink, (carefully read the recipe below for other key ingredients). Fortunately, the antique Damask roses in my garden have decided to provide me with the key ingredient, (petals), by producing a last wave of late-season, heavenly-scented bloom, (remember that bolt from the blue inspiration I mentioned above?). In fact just yesterday, I brought several deep fuchsia rose blossoms up to the table beside my bed in order to revel in their fragrance for a few more nights. I will miss them. After reading Maria's recipe, it seemed more than appropriate to harvest some fresh petals from this, my Portland Damask, Rosa 'De Rescht', in order to create a special cocktail marking the Last Day of Summer, Monday, September 21st, 2009.
So Long Sweet Summer. We'll see you again next year. Cheers!
** I also made this drink as a "mock-tail" for a friend. Use a good quality, non-alcoholic sparkling wine to replace the champagne, (available in many specialty stores and online).

Thank you Maria … Cheers !

The saxophone is a highly versatile instrument that adds an uplifting and often sensuous tone to jazz music, pop covers and modern house tunes alike.
Saxophonists can be amplified wirelessly and perform with a backing track or a live DJ. Amplification is sometimes not required for smaller venues, or if there are fewer guests.
They are able to roam amongst your guests to really provide an interactive spectacle. This is perfect for evening entertainment and wedding receptions.
Another popular genre is live lounge style chillout sets, often for afternoon events and cocktail receptions. The saxophonist will usually perform with backing tracks (pop, easy-listening, jazz...) for this type of event.
Some of our saxophonists are also highly accomplished DJs and combine the two skills by pre-mixing songs and improvising on sax.
Wedding saxophonists can perform outdoors but cover from the elements is required...sunlight can damage the instrument, as well as any type of precipitation.
Saxophonists on FixTheMusic have PAT-certified equipment, meaning that their equipment, such as a PA system, is safe to be used at public venues.
FixTheMusic is a one-stop shop for booking outstanding professional musicians – and it's completely free for you to use.

Don't mess with Archangel Gabriel.
There is darkness and silence. Then light, in waves, rippling through the ether. Three angels hover over the void. The light seems to reach upward, to form into tendrils that reach toward the watchers and draw them down. The whole mood is one of suspense, mystery, awe.
And then there are drums.
Taiko drums. Raw. Primal. Live. One can feel the beat against one's breastbone, all the way through the body. Trees descend from above. Leopard people emerge from the shadows. Then there is the howl of a beast–and the hunt begins. Each move of the leopard people is a pounce, defying gravity and the force of nature. It is spectacular, in the the truest sense, uniting the primal power of the human body in motion with the spirit of ancient ritual.
This is the specialty of The Cabiri. After the New Age fads of the 1980s and 90s, myth has largely disappeared from the American mainstream, and where it exists at all it tends to be as a vague set of vague notions, couched in boring language. The goal of The Cabiri has always been to brush the rust away from primeval tales and bring them into the physical world as immediate experience: not something to talk about abstractly, but something to live, and live through.
Over the years they have invoked many deities, many legends, many figures from Balkan folklore to Hittite/Hurrian myth. In Tewaz they have taken on a much more familiar theme. This time, it's the story of the angels.
Photo by David Rose Photography.
Yet this is not the story of the angels that is vaguely felt, that old story where the angels are warm, fuzzy creatures who watch over people and make sure that everything is just peachy for each of us because, you know, the omniscient, omnipresent JHVH-1 couldn't do it himself etc. In Tewaz the angels do indeed watch over humanity, but they are far from warm and fuzzy, things are not just peachy and, in fact, they probably have an agenda of their own that may result in the doom of all things mortal.
One group of angels, the Watchers, decide that it is time for humankind to move beyond their primitive state. They descend to earth to bring the wisdom of heaven, teaching them love and poetry, to control their violence and to commune with the divine.
This comes at a price.
In return for the gift of knowledge, the angels take a woman from the human tribe. The archangel Michael impregnates her, bringing down the wrath of archangel Gabriel. Gabriel warns the Watchers that the half-breed will bring war and strife and destruction. The child must be destroyed. The Watchers refuse. Tewaz, the lead Watcher (played gracefully by Charly McCreary), offers another vision of the future: a vision of a Messiah who will bring eternal peace finally to humanity.
But Gabriel will none of it. A struggle breaks out between the archangels and the Watchers, and if you've read the Book of Enoch, you will know what happens next.
I've already mentioned the show is visceral. It is also rich. Images flow fast throughout. A single viewing is probably insufficient to catch everything–but then, why should it be? Why should an audience only wish to see something once, and having seen it once, smugly pat themselves on the back for "getting it all"?

The race between Apple and Samsung to bag the title of the King of smartphones has been going on for like forever now.
I must say, Samsung with its new Galaxy flagship phone, is back on top beating the Apple's latest flagship iPhone X a tad position behind.
Agreed it's a little on the expensive side, But Galaxy s9 Plus is much more interesting and impressive as compared to s9.
Samsung s9 and s9 Plus are a lot similar to its predecessor, the s8 series. Yet it is one of the best smartphones around as of now. With its improvised performance, solid camera and extended battery life, the Galaxy s9 and s9 Plus continue to keep up with the reputation of the S series being incredible.
The New flagship comes with an improvised processor. The Galaxy S9 and s9 Plus both come with a new Exynos 8910 chip. It's still an octal-core chip with four 1.7GHz efficiency cores but the faster four have jumped from 2.4- to 2.7GHz.
S9 has a capacity of 4GB of RAM and 64GB or 256GB of internal storage along with a microSD card slot which can now take up to 400GB.
Techies would be pleased to hear that the S9 Plus has more memory and storage as compared to the S9 with 6/128GB. That's an extra 50 percent in RAM and double the storage. We have seen a spec sheet with a 128GB model but this seems to be very elusive at best.
S9 plus is comparatively smoother in performance as compared to all the other smartphones presently available in the market.
Galaxy s9 series comes with an extended battery life. The Galaxy S9 has a 3000mAh battery, whereas the S9 Plus offers 3500mAh. S9 Plus is said to comfortably last a full day for an average user and lighter users might even get a day and a half out of it.
The Galaxy S9 offers fast charging via the USB-C port and with that too with wireless charging, So averagely, S9 charges from 0 to 36 percent in 30 minutes and less. That's two percent more than the regular smartphone speed.
This year, major updates seem to revolve around the camera specifications.
S9 has a single camera; 12Mp with 1.4 micro m pixels and OIS. The highlight of the upgrade is its adjustable aperture which can automatically shift between f/2.4 and f/1.5 based on the condition of the shoot.
The super dual Pixel rear camera of s9 Plus is the major game changer. Though it is also 12Mp, it comes with an innovative mechanical aperture dedicated to providing DSLR quality images. It also comes with an additional telephoto lens which is great for taking closer shots without digital zooming.
The camera feature is user-friendly and comes with a variety of shoot modes. The shots are seen to be super crisp with perfectly detailed exposure.
S9 is said to have better low-light photography as compared to the other S series.
Not much of a change has been seen in terms of design and screen size. Samsung continues to stick to its bright (max 324cdm2) and colorful SuperAMOLED technology.
For s9, the screen size remains the same as its predecessor, s8 series- 5.8m display with A Quad HD Plus resolution (Full HD Plus is used by default but you can change it) means everything gets crispier than ever before.
S9 Plus, on the other hand, has an enlarged screen size of 6.2m. You also get the edge panels, which bring shortcuts to apps, contacts and far more by swiping in from the side.
The fingerprint sensor has been moved from the home button to a much more convenient location, below the camera. This reduces the stress one goes through when trying to unlock their phones. It also comes with improvised Intelligent Scanning technology, which means you can use it in combination with facial scanning.

I think those are pretty darned good photos, Maggie, especially the one of the bee, and the hummingbird moth shot looks pretty good, too. Good job, especially considering those are iPhone shots. I have an iPhone 8Plus, and am constantly amazed at how good a job it does. Thanks for sharing those.
I certainly hope the medics can get Pete's issue sorted out quickly and he can get back to some normalcy. Hang in there. Prayers coming your way for his health and recovery.

Previews and Lineups
Orioles @ Royals series preview: 15-18 May 2014
The Orioles start a four-game series in Kansas City tonight and will hopefully wash the stink from the sweep by the Tigers away with some strong offense and pitching. I don't feel confident about that, but stranger things have certainly happened.
By Stacey May 15, 2014, 11:00am EDT
Share All sharing options for: Orioles @ Royals series preview: 15-18 May 2014
The Orioles and Royals are facing off for the second time this season. At home from April 25-27, the Orioles lost two out of three to KC, needing extra innings for their one win. It was a letdown of a series, and hopefully the Orioles can offer some payback in Kansas City.
The O's (20-18) and Royals (20-19) have nearly identical records, but thus far the Royals pitching staff has been quite a bit better. Kansas City's pitching staff has allowed an average of 3.92 runs per game this year, third-best in the American League. The Orioles, on the other hand, are allowing 4.27 which is, surprisingly, 5th best in the A.L. A big difference is in the starting pitching, where the Royals are averaging 6.2 innings per start with a quality start 61% of the time. The Orioles fall quite a bit behind that with 5.8 IP/GS and a measly 35% in the QS department.
Both teams have had trouble scoring runs so far this season with Baltimore 4.05 R/G and Kansas City's 4.03 R/G ranking only above Houston in the American League. They've both been similarly inept at getting on base (.309 for the O's, .311 for KC), but the O's have been a little more successful in the power department.. Overall, the Orioles just edge the Royals in wOBA at .310 to .301.
Thursday, May 15th, 8:10 PM - Wei-Yin Chen vs. Yordano Ventura
Wei-Yin Chen (LHP) Yordano Ventura (RHP)
GS 7 7
IP 41 42.1
ERA 3.95 2.34
FIP 3.14 3.38
BA/OBP/SLG .301/.334/.434 .203/.276/.335
The Orioles faced Ventura earlier this year and it was not pretty. He threw eight shutout innings against them with eight strikeouts and the O's batters looked totally over matched. So far this season he has put together the ridiculous combination of 9.35 K/9 and a 51% ground ball rate, and he's the hardest throwing starting pitcher in the league with an average fastball velocity of 96.1.
Chen was held back to start today in order to give him an extra day's rest and to give him a chance to pitch against a team that struggles against lefties. In his career Chen has a 4.47 ERA with four days rest (28 GS) and 3.97 ERA with five days rest (24 GS). When he has that extra day of rest he pitches deeper into games (5.89 IP vs 6.14), has a lower OPS against (.788 vs .712), and his walk rate drops from 7.5% to 6%. So all in all, it's a good thing when Chen gets an extra day. As mentioned, the Royals struggle against lefties, hitting just .234/.297/.373 in 654 PA.
Friday, May 16th, 8:10 PM - Chris Tillman vs Jeremy Guthrie
Chris Tillman (RHP) Jeremy Guthrie (RHP)
IP 47.2 50.2
Chris Tillman and I aren't on the best of terms right now. After starting the season looking like the best pitcher on the staff, he has pretty much fallen apart. After pitching back-to-back starts of at least eight innings, Tillman has pitched five games where batters hit .282/.368/.482 against him. He has averaged less than 5 1/3 innings per game and has put up a 6.49 ERA. Simply put, he's been dreadful.
As for Guthrie, he's been the homer-prone Guts we all so many times when he was with the Orioles. He has given up 11 home runs this season, most in the American League. That's an average of two home runs every nine innings. He has only had two starts this season in which he didn't give up a home run, and of course one of them was on April 26th when he pitched seven innings against the Orioles.
Saturday, May 17th, 7:10 PM - Bud Norris vs. Danny Duffy
Bud Norris (RHP) Danny Duffy (LHP)
G/GS 7/7 8/2
Danny Duffy started the season in the bullpen, but moved into the rotation when our old friend Bruce Chen went on the disabled list. He has made two starts in which he has given up just one run in each, but in those two starts struggled with his control with seven walks in 10 innings. You may remember Duffy from the last series between these two teams. He hit the first batter he saw and then made back-to-back throwing errors on sacrifice bunts to set up the Orioles walk off win.
Norris is the kind of pitcher that looks a lot worse in the box scores than he has often looked on the mound. In his most recent start he cruised through seven innings before giving up a walk, a two-run homer, and hitting a batter in the eighth. It seemed odd that he was still out there in the first place, and the Orioles paid for it. But overall Bud has been a pleasant surprise (to me, at least) in the starting rotation.
Sunday, May 18th, 2:10 PM - Ubaldo Jimenez vs. James Shields
Ubaldo Jimenez (RHP) James Shields (RHP)
James Shields is good at baseball, y'all. The Orioles saw that firsthand when he shut them down over seven innings on April 27th. He's coming off of a very good start against the Rockies in which he struck out eight in seven innings with just one run allowed. The Orioles have a lot of experience with Shields thanks to his time in the A.L. East. He has made 25 starts against the Orioles over his career with a 3.51 ERA and a hitting line against of .247/.299/.398. Nick Markakis has 78 career plate appearances against Shields and has been pretty good, hitting .294/.385/.456.
When you look at Jimenez's numbers above, know that he has recently been much better and we're all hoping that he just had a case of the April blues. In his last three starts, Jimenez has gotten his strikeout numbers up, his walks down, and has just looked like a completely different pitcher. In his first five start, Jimenez had 17 walks and 21 strikeouts. In his last three he has five walks and 20 strikeouts. You most recently remember him from the game when he pitched his ass off for seven innings only to see Tommy Hunter piss it away in the ninth inning. If he can keep up his May numbers, this series finale could be quite the pitchers' duel.

Snapped before heading out for Friday nite bevies (without bubs of course). I absolutely LOVE this dress and have been able to wear it pre, during and post pregnancy. The best thing about it is that it can be dressed up or down and check out the pockets which are on both sides. They are big enough that I dont have to lug a bag around to hold my purse, keys, lippy and phone. No cloak room required!

Ron Rivera: Washington 'not desperate' to find answer at quarterback
Published: Mar 10, 2021 at 01:31 PM
Nick Shook
Around The NFL Writer
Ron Rivera is headed into his second season at the helm of the Washington Football Team at a steady, sustainable pace, and he's not about to start sprinting for anyone.
Ignore the fact Washington made the playoffs in 2020. Look past its stout defense littered with high draft picks along its front. Washington isn't going to expedite its extended plans just to find a way through some figurative title window. This regime is in it for the long haul.
"We're not desperate," Rivera told reporters of his team's offseason approach Wednesday. "There's no immediate need to have to, got to, must... What we're looking to do is build a sustainable winning culture and we want to put the football team together the right way.
"A lot of good things happened last year. We did something a little unexpected, which I acknowledge. But at the same time, just because of that, I really don't think you throw the plan away and you start reaching and doing things that you don't need to do right now. I think what you do is you continue to put the pieces of the puzzle in place and hopefully build it the right way and put it all together the way you need it to be."
It'll be a methodical build, then, for the Football Team, starting at the game's most important position. After being forced to turn to Alex Smith last season and watching him post a 5-1 record as a starter, Washington cut him loose, shifting its focus to the remaining signal-callers on the roster: Kyle Allen and Taylor Heinicke (and Steven Montez, if we're being generous). The former followed Rivera to the nation's capital from Charlotte, while the latter earned his place in the hearts of Washington fans with his gutsy, late-season performances in relief of the injured Smith.
Neither screams franchise quarterback, but Rivera also doesn't seem to be too worried about his club's situation under center.
"I don't feel any pressure about certain things to be upfront about that," Rivera said. "The biggest thing is the pressure is applied by you, you alone, as far as I'm concerned. To me, what we have to do is we have to make what we feel is the best pick and that's really it. There's a lot more that goes into it, too, because you've got to make sure you have the people around him. We're going to go through this very judiciously, and we'll see. But you know, we have time. We really do.
"We have an opportunity to grow it the right way in all three phases. And so, if the quote-unquote franchise guy isn't out there, we're going to go with guys that we believe give us a chance to win. That's really what you do. Do you want to be able to say this is our franchise quarterback? Well, yeah, you'd love to, but you don't know that until the quarterback starts playing, or quarterbacks.
"Once that happens, then you'll know. And so, we just got to continue to go through this, study the players and get the one we feel can become that player. We'll see what happens."
Rivera's team has free agency, which opens next week, and next month's draft to evaluate and potentially address the position. The draft's quarterback class includes a few passers with tantalizing potential beyond the presumed No. 1 pick, Trevor Lawrence. But because Washington reached the postseason, it isn't exactly situated in a great spot (19th) to take a franchise quarterback.
There's always room to move up, or move players around. The potential for offseason madness -- or relative silence, if Washington's research dictates it -- is what makes this period interesting.
It might also make all the difference for the Football Team.

In 1933, Aldo Leopold was named chair of game management in what is now the UW-Madison Department of Forest and Wildlife Ecology. Just weeks after his appointment, he gave the first in a series of radio talks about conservation on the College of the Air. Unfortunately, the recordings of his talks no longer exist. However, the transcripts are available thanks to Stanley Temple, the Beers-Bascom Professor Emeritus in Conservation in the Department of Forest and Wildlife Ecology, who for 32 years held the academic position previously held by Leopold.
Leopold's first talk, which took place on September 8, 1933, was aimed at rural landowners and introduced his then-new idea of increasing game bird populations by leaving food and cover for them on farmland.
Temple read a portion of Leopold's first talk for a recent episode of WPR's Wisconsin Life. It was the first in an ongoing Wisconsin Life series featuring Temple reading and discussing Leopold's radio conservation talks. Episodes will air approximately one each month though next summer.
Temple noted that Leopold was not well-known outside the circles of wildlife conservation and forestry at the time. So one way he reached out to the general public was through these radio talks. For many Wisconsinites, it was the very first time they heard Leopold's "brand-new, revolutionary ideas" about wildlife conservation.
