Steiners 'Czech' out their roots in European trip
Eugene (Gene) and Beryl Steiner had two weeks set aside to relax and take a vacation, so they packed their bags and headed for Tabor and Pilsen.
Nice places to visit, but not exactly where you'd like to spend all your vacation time?
In this case, Tabor and Pilsen happen to be in the Czech Republic in central Europe.
"Our youngest boy, Rex, is an English teacher in Prague," Beryl said.
Added Gene: "His students are mostly businessmen who want to learn a second language to come to the United States."
Following World War I, the closely related Czechs and Slovaks of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire merged to form Czechoslovakia, or "Cesko," which is the Bohemian equivalent.
After World War II, Czechoslovakia fell within the Soviet Union's sphere of influence.
Following the collapse of Soviet authority in 1989, Czechoslovakia regained its freedom through a peaceful "Velvet Revolution."
In 1993, Czechoslovakia split into the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Bordered by Austria, Germany, Poland and Slovakia, "Ceska Republika" is about the size of South Carolina.
When their son took his teaching job in Prague, the capital city of the Czech Republic (population 1,173,000), they knew they couldn't resist the opportunity to travel abroad.
Beryl, who works in the food services department at Hillsboro Community Medical Center, and Gene, who's a meat-cutter at Dale's Supermarket, had the reason they needed to make the trip.
They left from Wichita and flew to Newark, N.J., where they stayed a night with their son Roy, who works for Scandinavian Airlines.
The following day they and Roy departed for Copenhagen, Denmark, which was about an eight-hour flight.
They had a layover there and then another one-hour flight to Prague.
"When we were about to land in Prague, the captain said we are landing in 'Prah,' and I thought, 'I guess he can't say it right,'" Beryl said with a laugh.
Spelled "Praha," the locals use a variable pronunciation to our own. Likewise, Tabor (pronounced ta-boor) was pronounced differently.
"Once on the ground in Prague, we didn't really waste any time," Beryl said. "When you're with Rex, you're always afraid you're going to miss something."
"Wherever we ended up at the end of the day, is where we stayed," Gene added. "We stayed at several bed and breakfasts."
While there, the Steiners rented a compact car to tour the countryside.
"Ours was a diesel," Beryl said. "We only had to fill the tank a couple of times in seven days."
"They didn't seem to think the price of fuel was very high," Gene said. "But I don't really know if stuff was expensive or not. I'd ask Rex if something is expensive, and he'd tell me if it was or not."
Added Beryl: "We never did find out what the conversion rate was."
Crowns are the standard currency in the Czech Republic and hellers are the name of the coins.
Public transportation is the mode of transportation most widely used by local citizens. Most use either the metro, bus, or tram.
"We saw very few kids driving cars," Gene said. "Rex has a friend over there that has a drivers license, but she rides the bus all the time."
Traveling wasn't an obstacle for the Steiners and neither was communication.
"Almost all of the menus are in English and Czech," Gene said. "Most of the storekeepers over there can speak English, too-at least enough to get by."
Getting accustomed to the local food was only as difficult as they chose to make it, they said.
"I wanted McDonald's one day, but Rex nearly came uncorked," Beryl said with a smile.
Also available were fast-food stores such as Kentucky Fried Chicken, along with beverages such as Sprite, Pepsi Cola, and other "western" favorites.
"They had some very nice restaurants, though," Beryl said. "You couldn't really judge what the food would be like by their outward appearance, because the buildings are all very old.
"I don't think the food cost all that much," she added. "But I suppose if you're a wage earner over there, it may have been somewhat expensive."
Other Czech favorites the Steiners were used to dining on in Kansas were also available.
"They have kolaches, but they're about twice the size of ours," Gene said. "My favorite food was their potato dumplings.
"You had better be hungry when they bring you a meal, because they bring you a big pile of food."
Rehydrating was a bit different in the Czech Republic.
"They drink more beer than water over there," Gene said. "Beer is 15 cents a pint, compared to 55 cents a pint for water."
Added Beryl: "If you go into a restaurant and get water, it's bottled. They don't just bring you a glass of water like they do over here."
"I don't know if they have drinking-age restrictions (for alcohol) or not," Gene added. "We saw kids come into pubs and drink beer.
"They do sometimes have a separate room for them, though."
While traveling the countryside, the Steiners saw varied landscapes.
"I grew up around a lot of hills," Beryl, who moved to the United States in 1955 from England, said. "But nothing like the hills in the Czech Republic."
The area around Prague, Gene said, was a mix of agricultural entities.
"The eastern part is what I call 'poor farmers,'" he said. "They work the ground and there will be deep tracks in it, but they just go ahead and plant their crops and run a packer over it. In the west, they have big farms."
"We saw five large grain elevators, much like ours," Beryl said. "But the machinery isn't nearly as large as ours is here."
Breweries are a 'backbone' of the local working forces.
"They grow lots of hops," Gene said. "To me, it looked like acres and acres of telephone poles, but it was just poles for the hops to grow on.
"One Sunday we went into a brewery that had eight vats that were 6 feet by 8 feet that were just filled with beer," Gene said.
The Steiners also visited some of the local cemeteries, which was of particular interest to Gene, who has traced his ancestry to the former Czechoslovakia.
"It was kind of like walking through the Pilsen cemetery, with names like Steiner, Vinduska, Novak, Klenda, Holub and so many other familiar names on the stones," he said.
Once the countryside tour was completed, they returned to Prague.
"It's a very old city," Beryl said. "They still have extensive damage from the floods last August from the Vltava River. Mortar was washed off of the houses up to the second story."
"You don't see hardly any cement," Gene said. "All you see is lots and lots of cobblestone that are laid in sand, in 4-by-4 squares."
"It's a very old, but very pretty town," Beryl said.
"We saw some new homes being built, but they were about 20 by 20, and all two stories," Gene said. "The price of land is so expensive they can't afford to build anything larger than that."
Real estate was at a premium price they agreed, and consequently many businesses including supermarkets were underground.
"It's a poor country," Beryl said. "But they're trying to get back on their feet. They were under communist rule for so long, that it will take awhile."
With unemployment rates running around 8.5 percent, the locals look to tourism for an economic boost.
"There are Americans, Dutch, British and Australians among others over there," Gene said. "Tourists have to be pouring a lot of money into their economy, because there sure were a lot of them."
"We really had no negative reaction to us, being from the United States," Beryl said. "We had a couple people ask us what we thought about the war, and we kind of sloughed it off, and not another word was said."
Safety was never a concern for the Steiners, while flying or while in the Czech Republic.
One thing that was a big adjustment though, was the uninhibited nature of the local people.
"If they have to use the bathroom they just stop along the side of the road, walk out into the field and relieve themselves, and get back in their car and go," Gene said. "They don't care whether there are people around or not."
Celebrating their 48th wedding anniversary in Prague with their two sons was a special memory of their trip.
"We celebrated on Easter Sunday, and the boys took us out to a very nice restaurant," Beryl said. "Besides getting to see Rex, the other highlight of the trip was looking at all the beautiful crystal they have over there."
Having made the rounds, the Steiners boarded the airliner and headed back to Hillsboro.
"It was fun to visit," Beryl agreed. "But it sure is nice to be home."

The government's Eid gifts for Limon
by rahnuma ahmed
Limon Hossain, a towering icon of youthful courage and fortitude.?? Daily Star
Everyone was happy this Eid, said the prime minister. Her administration had worked hard to ensure that there were no price hikes, no power cuts. That the roads were in good shape, that the law and order situation was under control.
Sheikh Hasina congratulated herself thus as she exchanged Eid greetings with ?"distinguished guests" and "people from all walks of life" at her official residence. Same press releases year after year, regardless of who's in power. I remember them from my childhood, no change in wording.
I can claim this much on this Eid that everyone is enthusiastically marking the occasion.
Everyone's happy and enthusiastic about her government, yeah, sure.
I don't want to pick apart her Eid claims here, maybe I should be grateful instead for her having mentioned the major issues which fuel public anger, cushioned as she must have been by many a distinguished sycophant on Eid day.
But if one were to carry the sycophant thought further, there wasn't anything special about her Eid then, was there? A day just like any other day, a bunch of sycophants ?easily replaceable by other bunches, scraping and bowing, in their earnest desire to please.
Working overtime to chip in their bit in maintaining the carefully constructed scaffolding of half-truths and lies, essential to maintain and perpetuate a system of rule which denies the vast majority any meaningful share in the exercise of political power.
Unreal claims, untruthful ones which do not stand up to the slightest ?scrutiny since public memory refuses to toe the government propaganda line, to submit to official lies as did the bunch of distinguished sycophants on Eid day. As they clamour to do on all other days.
I don't blame the other lot equally — those officially categorised as "people from all walks of life" — for although they must have been diligently hand-picked by party officials and vetted by our amla mamas, the consequences of not abiding by the pre-determined script, is usually heavier for those who are non-distinguished.
Press reports do not indicate that any of the distinguished guests spoke up for Limon. Not even one. A simple question would have sufficed, "The police report says RAB is not to blame. Who is?"
No indications either of a cautious whisper in her ear by a? senior citizen (tipped off to the press later to 'up' the pressure), The police report does discredit to the government, instead of burying the mistakes committed, the grave is being dug up afresh, maybe you could look into it… In the interests of the government, in our interests.
No evidence of the Rapid Action Battalion's (RAB) involvement, says the police report which investigated the case filed by Henoara Begum, Limon's mother, on April 10, 2011. She had accused six RAB officials and personnel with Razapur Police Station of attempted murder.
Submitted to the Senior Judicial Magistrate's Court of Jhalokathi on August 14th — Eid was celebrated the week after, on August 20th — it was, as such, the government's first Eid gift to Limon.
A slap in his face and on ours, the many hundreds of human rights activists, civic bodies, left groups, artists, academics, writers, journalists, women's and labour rights activists who had rallied in support of Limon, against the sheer and blatant injustice done to him. We were outraged then, we are outraged now. What arrogance, what criminality!
It was a slap in the face of people from all walks of life as well, for everyone, just about everyone in today's electronic media-saturated Bangladesh knows of him. 'Limon? Oh, you mean the boy from Jhalokathi? Yes, sure, RAB shot him in the leg. He lost it,' we were told unfailingly by passersby when we approached them for signatures in Dhaka streets last year, demanding that the manufactured cases against him be dropped, that he and his family be provided with security, that those who were guilty be punished.
Hundreds of signatures, gladly given. Some had even taken the trouble to delay wherever they had been heading, to join us instead in our weekly hourlong vigil and protest.
What happened to Limon is etched in public memory, indelibly so, it does not require drumming up by party leaders or government functionaries. Unlike those events and dates which — undoubtedly marking injustices in the nation's history — need to be officially drumbeated by those in power.
Sympathy which springs up spontaneously, is markedly different from sorrow that is officially engineered. One is political capital, privately owned, to be invested, to be exploited, for the benefit of its owners. The other, is public. Commonly owned and shared, the tales are narrated by ordinary people, no pause in between as others jump in to pick up the thread, a collective enrichment that requires no official prompting.
And thus, if you were to stand on a street corner and ask people about Limon, the lineaments of his story, etched in public memory, is bound to emerge, haltingly at first: he comes from a poor family. Umm, he worked in a brick kiln didn't he? To pay for his education. He was a college student, an HSC examinee when he got shot. His father was a share-cropper or maybe a day-labourer. He'd come to Dhaka in search of work, I think he found some in a fruit market in Savar.
And then, a rush of words, dates, facts, figures.? It was on March 23, 2011. Yes, yes, only a few days before Independence day, I remember! (from someone else). He was returning home from grazing cattle. A RAB-8 team stopped him near Shohid Jomaddar's house. They shouted, you are a terrorist. The poor guy begged and pleaded, no, no, please, you have mistaken me for someone else. I'm a college student. But they didn't listen, one of those RAB guys pointed his gun at his left leg and fired. Umm, yes, that's how they operate.?
He was taken to Barisal Medical at first, but the doctors said it was too late. They told his family to bring him to Dhaka, to Pongu Hospital. The doctors here amputated his leg. It's just a stub now, he walks on crutches. No, no, you are wrong, they got an artificial leg for him later. Ah yes, but they had to mortgage their piece of land to foot the ambulance trip to Dhaka and the hospital bills, no? Yes, villagers chipped in too, I read in the papers.
What happened then? Oh, it was hideous how they made him suffer. Atrocious. Umm, yes, that's a better word. Atrocious, downright disgusting.You see, RAB is never wrong, and the local police, those guys work hand in hand with RAB, so, first they lodged a case on March 23rd night, Limon was accused of possessing illegal arms, of obstructing the law-enforcement agencies. Didn't they say he was older, by ten years or so? Yess, his age was recorded as 25, not 16. And then they filed another case the next day, listing him as a criminal. But you forget, chimes in someone else, the police had at first refused to register his mother's case. It was only after the court order.
Anything else? Ohh, there was such tamasha…Hey, wasn't there a 'secret' charge sheet, or some such thing? Yes! That's why he got dragged off to Jhalokathi, can you imagine what it must have been like, with that amputated leg, he couldn't even walk, and he had to be jailed for the night because RAB can never be wrong. The police too are so, so heartless… But do you remember how people came out of their houses and cheered and waved when the police van passed by? Thank heavens, he was given bail by the Supreme Court, those manobodhikar groups were very active.
Hey, I'm most impressed. You people remember a lot!? Now, here's a test question, do you remember what RAB's director general had said? Yeah, sure, Limon was accidentally shot, he was the victim of a shootout between RAB and a criminal gang. Umm, Mokhlesur Rahman's the name, right? At a press conference in Dhaka, Comilla bari, na?
The government's first Eid gift, i.e., the police report, what did Limon think of? it? They have concealed the truth, they want to make RAB look innocent.
Henoara Begum — a courageous woman who deserves the Shadhinota Padak more than anyone else I can think of — said she would file a no-confidence in the investigation report. RAB took my son and shot him. The police have been very cruel towards us.
The second Eid gift was delivered on Eid day itself.
Limon and his mother and brother were returning from his village home in Saturia to Kaukhali where he now lives, it's closer to college, travelling is more convenient (needless to add, conveniences for those physically disabled are rare in Dhaka itself, the capital city). Ibrahim, a RAB source and a local criminal, turned up with his gang. According to a media report, 'leader' Ibrahim asked him, Hey, why are you standing here? Before Limon could reply, Ibrahim punched him in the face, in the head. Henoara Begum rushed to her son's rescue. She was badly beaten and lies in hospital.
If the police report had been a truthful investigation, would a RAB source have dared to beat Limon and his mother? Wouldn't Ibrahim, a petty criminal, have crawled away somewhere, at least for a good length of time, since his masters were to be legally tried?
In our culture, Eid gifts should be returned most cordially and in double measure. This would mean shooting, amputating, dragging around from hospital to court to jail, cover-up police reports, punching, beating, lying through one's teeth…
But I know, neither the Prophet nor his true believers, would condone it. All perpetrators should be tried instead. For the injustices done to Limon, and to us, members of the public, who seek justice against wrongs committed.

Rourkela only Indian city in the prestigious Bloomberg-2021 Global Mayors Challenge- 220122

Posted By: Paperman India 22nd January 2022
Wins 1 million USD, among top 15 Cities from across the world declared finalists
Innovation to enhance women and farmers' livelihood
Smartcity Rourkela ranks among the Top 15 Cities of the world under the Bloomberg Global Mayors Challenge 2021. This makes the city eligible for a grant of USD 1 Million from Bloomberg Philanthropies and technical assistance to carry out the innovation over the next 3 years. Rourkela, one of the five Municipal Corporations and a leading industrial town of Odisha, is the only Indian city to make the honour.
Under Global Mayors Challenge, Rourkela has developed a sustainable model which augments the income of women and small time traders of the city while promoting the use of technology. As part of the project, Rourkela Municipal Corporation (RMC) has developed a cold storage facility at the local Veer Surendra Sai (VSS) Market in partnership with a NIT Rourkela based startup and managed by Women self help group members.
With this solution, the local farmers and fruit traders have been able to enhance their income by preserving their produce and preventing any wastage. In addition, fresh vegetables and fruits are delivered to people's doorsteps, especially in times of COVID19. All of this is being managed by members of women self help groups using mobile apps. While developing the ecosystem and helping all the stakeholders, the model helps the women largely in augmenting their livelihoods.
Dr. Subhankar Mohaptra, Commissioner, Rourkela Municipal Corporation (RMC) expressed his happiness after winning the challenge. He appreciated the role of team RMC, Technical Partner Koel Fresh, research students and alumnus of NIT Rourkela who have shown commendable effort in the last 6 months. "Through everyone's contribution, Rourkela has clinched the Top 15 position in the world. The role of the women who manage the show is also worth celebrating. The prestigious Bloomberg Philanthropies Global Mayors Challenge 2021 award will not only help us to take the innovation forward but also inspire all stakeholders", shares Dr. Mohapatra.
"I congratulate Team RMC and all the stakeholders for this global recognition. With its uniqueness, the project immensely helps women SHGs, small vegetable and fruit vendors of Rourkela while delivering a smart service at the doorstep of the people. Moreover, this sustainable idea also promotes technology and aims to adopt eco friendly energy which are the key goals for the future generation", says Nikhil Pavan Kalyan, Collector & DM Sundargarh while addressing the press.
"We are very much hopeful that such solution would be scaled up in various parts of India and Rourkela city would act as a role model for many other cities. We, thank the entire team from Bloomberg philanthropies for giving us such a wonderful platform to showcase our city's potential", says RMC Commissioner Dr. Subhankar Mohapatra, on the occasion.
"As the world works to address the profound public health and economic effects of the ongoing pandemic, cities can implement innovative ideas at a pace that national governments simply can't match," said Michael R. Bloomberg, founder of Bloomberg Philanthropies and Bloomberg L.P. and 108th Mayor of New York City. Our fifteen winners offer bold, achievable plans to improve health, reduce unemployment, empower women, and more. Collectively, they have the potential to improve millions of their residents' lives – and the most successful solutions will inspire cities around the world to embrace them."
"The Mayors Challenge always pushes mayors to take big ideas and bring them to life and was vitally important as we emerged from the worst year of the pandemic" said James Anderson, who leads the Government Innovation program at Bloomberg Philanthropies. Now these cities will pivot to the hard work ahead to implement these projects and collect lessons learned to help other cities adopt and spread their ideas.
Notably, 99 countries from around the world took part in the Global Mayors Challenge held in June 2021. At a critical time such as the COVID pandemic, the competition focused on proposals from 630 cities on economic recovery and overall growth, health and welfare, climate and environment, and good governance and equality. Of these, 50 cities, including Rourkela, were finalists among proposals for innovative and modern projects. The list also included the city of Pune in the first leg of the challenge. Currently, Rourkela is the only city from India to have made the cut among top 15 cities globally.

A South Carolina lawyer known for his TV commercials and billboards has turned over $994,000 in cash kept in a closet of his Myrtle Beach law office after a court-appointed bankruptcy investigator stressed the importance of disclosing his assets.
Harry Pavilack's bankruptcy filings in September reportedly disclosed estimated debts of $72.5 million and assets of just $50,000. The bankruptcy examiner looked at some of Pavilack's 60 corporations, and noticed that a lot of money was moving through some of them although they did not seem to actually do anything. He asked Pavilack to explain some checks made out to "petty cash," although the amount of cash ($900,000) was not really that petty. Pavilack did not have a good explanation for those, but (I'm speculating here) he did then poke around in his office a bit and what do you know, there was $994,400 in the closet.
An amended filing two months after the first one disclosed $8.9 million in assets, although most of it was said to be real estate rather than newly discovered stacks of cash. Pavilack had blamed his financial situation in large part on the recession, but the examiner's report said that did not explain where millions in cash assets had been going. According to the report, some of it may have been transferred to friends, some to relatives, and some, of course, into the closet.
Also, at least some of it is in Peru. The examiner found that Pavilack had recently opened two bank accounts there, depositing $200 each. Surprisingly, Pavilack "has not explained the purpose or need for foreign bank accounts," the report states. Well, you have to admit they're safer than closets. Depending on the country, anyway.
Ultimately, the examiner was unable to determine exactly how much money Pavilack might have or where it is because his financial records (like his desk) are in complete "disarray." Reconstructing them, the examiner said, is a "pipe dream."

Danny Connor has a new jersey number - 44 - it'll look good in teal and black.
Dan attended Panthers' mini-camp - where they worked him mostly at inside linebacker. He says (in his NFL diary) that he's learning the different positions so he can contribute wherever he is needed.
Carolina begins the pre-season on August 9th with a home game against the Colts - but then, on the 14th they travel up to Philadelphia to face the Eagles - think Danny will have some fans in the stands that day? They head over to Pittsburgh for their final pre-season game on August 28th.
Homecoming - 2008 - It's on October 18th - and the game is against Michigan.
It should be a big, big day!
Kick-off is scheduled for 4:30pm - which sounds kinda perfect to me.
This is PSU's only home game in October - so organizers had little choice for setting the homecoming date (or so the folks at the NLC have said).
Those clever kiddos on the Homecoming Committee have created a blog (for announcements, updates, suggestions, etc).
Why don't you check it out and let them know that they should definitely have the tailgating contest again this year... You can't be "non-award winning" if they aren't giving out awards.
So, I watched "We Are Marshall" last night - and it was a good sports movie - not the best - but it did conjure up a few tears - and cheers.
It was a bit disjointed - trying to "tell" too many stories from too many angles - but it's a complex and compelling story - so that's understandable.
What wasn't understandable was the Special Features section. I had, apparently foolishly, expected there to be a "featurette" on the Marshall story - the "real" people behind the rolls - but there wasn't - the only features were a Marshall commercial, a trailer for the movie and a featurette titled "Legendary Coaches" - this segment was introduced by the director of the film, McG (yeah, that's his "name" - he's the director of such classics as "Charlie's Angels" and "Charlie's Angels - Full Throttle") - so McG tells us how legendary coaches are the best in their sports - up flashes a picture of Bobby Bowden - not surprising, he's a character in the movie - but I just couldn't stomach it - so I ejected the DVD and watched Superbad - which, btw, was a much more entertaining, albeit sometimes disturbing, film.
I remember the first time I read about the Marshall crash - it was during the Randy Moss era - and (how interesting that Bowden was involved in that as well) the story is fascinating - sad beyond comprehension, but inspiring as well. What a perfect opportunity for the filmmakers to pay (even a little more) tribute to those that died and those who carried on - oh well.
08/30 - Coastal Carolina - The Lions start off 2008 against the Division One Championship League Chanticleers. Start time is still TBA.
09/06 - Oregon State - The first ever meeting between the two teams should be an interesting Big Ten / Pac Ten match up. "Officially" the gametime is "TBA" - however, Oregon sources suggest that kickoff will be at 3:30pm (EST).
09/13 at Syracuse - A renewal (albeit short lived) an old "Beast of the East" rivalry. Traditionally, syracuse was PSU's homecoming game (every other year, that is) - gametime is still TBA.
09/20 - Temple - PSU and Temple have signed a long term (not nd/um long term - but pretty significant) OoC contract. The "lion's share" of the games will be in Happy Valley. Start time is also, TBA.
09/27 - Illinois - 8:00pm EST - The first of the Lions' flurry of prime time games. PSU opens the Big Ten schedule with a pretty formidable foe - and a score to settle.
10/04 at Purdue - Lions begin their "away month" (only one home game in October) against the boilermakers. Start time is TBA.
10/11 at Wisconsin - 8:00pm EST - right into the meat of the season - the Lions head out to Madison - and another night game.
10/18 - Michigan - 4:30pm. EST - Easily the biggest game of the season. And it's homecoming!
10/25 at Ohio State - 8:00pm. EST - Could (hopefully) become the biggest game of the season.
11/08 at Iowa - the Lions' fourth away game in ... 6 weeks? What? There is a bye week? game time is TBA.
11/15 - Indiana - PSU returns home to face the hoosiers. Game time, you guessed it - is TBA.
11/22 - Michigan State - Last game of the season - Lions lost a heartbreaker (soul crusher, really) out in East Lansing last year. This is the weekend before Thanksgiving - Here's hoping for a happy holiday! kickoff? - yup - TBA.
perhaps you could suggest that every tailgate is a party - and I would not argue with you.
anyway - I (who will be among others who call themselves tailgaters) am going to a neighborhood "happy hour" tonight. We have a little group of fun people who, during the warm(er) months, host happy hours (the fact that it's craptastic weather shall not deter us) at alternating locations - and, tonight is the first of the 2008 season.
We (the guests) usually bring a snacky dish or two and maybe a beverage while the host provides the majority of the fare and libations.
So, today at lunch, I (who likes to use parentheticals and who hadn't really thought of anything to contribute to the happy hour until 1:05pm today) made a trio of dips/spreads to take to the party. I made - rosemary and white bean spread, green olive tapenade, and garlic-fresh oregano hummus.
Suz is going to concoct some delicious cooler - using blueberries, pomegranate, vodka and ginger ale - yum (as Racheal Ray would say) O!
The fact that I now reek of garlic upon my return to the office - is not abnormal.
As in there are no blog entries.
It's not that there isn't anything "going on" in Penn State Football - Joe was hospitalized yesterday, for gosh sake (he's, reportedly, fine; he was dehydrated) - and we've been picking up a variety of new recruits - even some of tosu's (awkward).
I've found myself busy commenting on other blogs - as sometimes happens - and for fear of redundancy and/or basic laziness - I just don't follow up here.
I know. I know. Lame.
So, here's to a renewed commitment to all things Penn State and Penn State Football.

i.l Overview for Instructors The purpose of this text is to provide an introduction to the problem-solving capabilities of Fortran 90. The intended audience is undergraduate science and engineering students who have not previously taken a formal programming course. The focus is on the process of solving computational problems of interest to scientists and engineers, rather than on programming per se, which has several important implications for the contents of the text, as outlined later in the Preface. Fortran has long been favored as an introductory programming language for engineering and science students because of its historical roots and continued prominence in the professional practice of these disciplines. The Fortran 77 standard has been taught, within an essentially mainframe context, to an entire generation of scientists and engineers. However, many of the science and engineering calculations that, a generation ago, could be done only on mainframe computers can now be done on desktop computers, often using applications that don't require any programming at all

Sundial Growers Announces Up To $140 Million Corporate Credit Facilities with ATB Financial and Bank of Montreal
admin / August 31, 2019 / No Comments
Sundial Growers Inc. (Nasdaq:SNDL) ("Sundial" or the "Company") announced today that it has entered into a syndicated credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with ATB Financial ("ATB") and Bank of Montreal ("BMO") as co-lead arrangers and joint bookrunners (collectively the "Lenders") with ATB as administrative agent and BMO as syndication agent. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders will provide Sundial with an initial C$90 million of secured debt facilities (collectively, the "Credit Facility"), comprised of a C$84 million senior secured term credit facility and a C$6 million senior secured revolving operating facility. Under the Credit Agreement, Sundial also has the right to an additional facility to a maximum of C$50 million (for a total of C$140 million) to finance the construction of additional buildings at its Canadian production facilities, subject to the consent of the Lenders and satisfaction of certain other conditions.
Upon closing of the Credit Agreement, approximately C$48 million of the Credit Facility was drawn to refinance amounts owing under the Company's prior debt facility with ATB. The term of the Credit Facility is two years. The Credit Facility is secured by all of Sundial's Canadian assets, including its production facilities comprised of the flagship production facility located in Olds, Alberta, the Rocky View, Alberta facility and the purpose-built facility currently being constructed in Merritt, British Columbia.
"With the completion of the Credit Facility, including the C$50 million accordion feature, and the proceeds from our recent IPO, we are well capitalized to execute our business plan in both Canada and the UK/Europe. This is a significant step for our business and will allow Sundial to focus on what we do best which is to proudly craft pioneering cannabis brands to Heal, Help and Play," said Torsten Kuenzlen, Chief Executive Officer of Sundial.
"The ongoing commitment made by our partners, both of which are leading financial institutions in Canada, demonstrates continued confidence in Sundial's business and the anticipated cash flow generating ability of our Sundial platform", added Mr. Kuenzlen.

My parents hosted their annual Oktoberfest party last weekend (more photos coming soon) and it seemed fitting to make a giant vat of potato salad to go with the brats and sauerkraut. Check out the recipe below, it's best when served at room temperature.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 1 tablespoon of kosher salt. Gently add potato chunks to the boiling water and reduce heat and simmer potatoes for 10 minutes or until they are tender when stabbed with a fork. Drain water and run potatoes under cold water to cool slightly.
Set a large saute pan over medium heat and add bacon. Cook bacon, stirring occasionally, until crispy. Reduce heat to medium and use a slotted spoon to remove bacon to a paper towel while leaving bacon grease in the pan.
Add vinegar, sugar, dijon mustard, salt, and pepper to the bacon grease in the pan. Bring the mixture to a simmer, and stir for a couple of minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until the garlic is fragrant. Remove the pan from heat and gently toss the potatoes and dressing together in a large mixing bowl. Carefully fold in the cooked bacon pieces and chopped parsley. Serve at room temperature and refrigerate any leftovers.

Moving your family to a new home or a new community can be just as frustrating as it is exciting.? There are lots of ways to help the move go smoother. Gathered here are several ideas that should help you keep control of the situation and keep your possessions organized throughout the move.
You'll need LOTS of boxes--probably more boxes than you think, and having enough boxes will make your life easier!? Have about 10 boxes set aside to use for last minute items on moving day, such as bedding, clothing, and cleaning supplies. You'll need strong plastic packing tape to close up the boxes securely. Use unprinted newsprint (newspaper can stain your items), packing paper or bubble wrap to wrap and cushion household good. Again, you'll need a lot more supplies than you think, so get extra so the packing can go smoothly.
Clearly label EVERY box with a room name in your new home - dining room, bedroom 1, downstairs bathroom, etc.? If necessary, post the name of the room in your new house on the door or doorway.? This is helpful for bedrooms and bathrooms so that all helpers will know where to put the boxes and you don't end up with a big pile.
This is where wardrobe boxes come in handy. You can move clothing on hangers straight from your closet to the wardrobe boxes. Clothing in drawers should be packed in suitcases or boxes.??Get wardrobe boxes to use for your closet packing if possible.??These tall boxes are wonderful for packing coats and clothing.? Get things organized as early as possible.
Wrap breakable items in bubble wrap or inkless newsprint. Put layers of bubble wrap between each plate or bowl. Fill the top bowl with crumpled inkless newsprint. Make sure you put the heavier items on the bottom of the box.?

REVIEWS: Rewatching the Mission: Impossible Films
Jeffrey Rex Bertelsen	Motion Picture Thoughts, Movie Reviews, Reviews, Special Features	 August 19, 2018 March 27, 2019 6 Minutes
I know I'm a little bit late to it, but I'm finally seeing Mission: Impossible – Fallout in theaters today. So, last night I decided to marathon the five films that came before it. I ended up taking some notes, and, in this article, I've presented them here as reviews or smaller bite-sized mini-reviews, along with an estimated review score for each of the previous films except for Rogue Nation, which I reviewed in 2015.
Mission: Impossible – 1996 – Brian De Palma
We've come a long way since Jon Voight sent Tom Cruise and Emilio Estevez among others into a mission in Prague in the 1996 Brian de Palma film. The film series has also gotten a lot better since its first couple of films, but I'll get to that.
The thing about Mission: Impossible is that when it works, it certainly is thrilling and whatnot, but the plot is also just too convoluted — especially in this film if you ask me. It is just too much to keep track of. The good parts outweigh the confusing parts, though. It does have its fair share of memorable moments — with the masterful vault-sequence being the main highlight — but it isn't a film that I imagine I'll return to anytime soon.
The big finale just doesn't look all that great anymore, and you can definitely tell that this film is — at the time of writing — 22 years old. As it is, it is a somewhat solid but dated start to the film series, but not exactly as good as I remembered it being.
Mission: Impossible 2 – 2000 – John Woo
A slightly cartoonish and, certainly, overly stylized sequel that I remember liking when I was younger. I don't anymore, though, and I think it may be due to the change in tone from the first to the second film. The set-up to the title sequence feels like a video game, which I'm not opposed to, but it doesn't really fit with De Palma's film, in my opinion. It feels so different that it's basically whiplash-inducing if you watch them back-to-back.
There are also just too many slow-motion shots in Woo's film. Generally, this feels more like an attempt to make an over-the-top Americanized James Bond-like spy sequel that tries to check all available spy-characteristic boxes: romance, love interests, action, and so on and so forth.
The laid-back, free-flowing, long Cruise hair is perfect for this much more romantic, cartoonish, and fun take on the series than De Palma's film, which, by the way, had Tom Cruise in a straight-and-to-the-point hairstyle that promised no funny-business. These films are supposed to be analyzed based on Cruise's hairstyles, right? Am I doing it right?
All jokes aside, this was the movie that made me interested in the film series way back when. This is the film I previously most associated with the theme song, for some reason, and although I think it is the series' worst film, I still enjoy it somewhat.
Mission: Impossible III – 2006 – J. J. Abrams
Six years after the release of Mission: Impossible 2, the series left the hands of two well-known directors, and, all of a sudden, J. J. Abrams was the director chosen to spearhead the production of the, then, newest film in the series.
Nowadays Abrams is known best for his reputation as a fanboy favorite director with his work on popular television series being overshadowed by his successful attempts to revitalize both the Star Trek and Star Wars franchises. In 2006, Abrams was known for his involvement in shows like Felicity and Lost, and this, Mission: Impossible III, was his directorial debut.
Right from the opening scene of this film, it feels more up my alley than the previous two. Hunt, Cruise's character, is tied to a chair (and has been beaten) and Philip Seymour Hoffman's character — the greatest antagonist in the film series — is giving the series' hero an ultimatum. Either Hunt gives him the location of the film's MacGuffin or they will kill his fiancee.
Gone is the over-the-top, overly stylized slow-motion action from the Woo film. Hunt here looks broken, tired, and defeated. It is a grim and gritty scene and it works. This is a flashback scene to prepare you for a different approach — a much more serious approach to the action film series. If that uncompromising scene doesn't grab you, then I don't know what will.
This is a Mission: Impossible-film for the Jason Bourne era of action-thriller filmmaking, and you can feel it immediately. I don't appreciate the look of this film, though, and that is my biggest problem with it — truth be told. With that having been said, it is a truly engaging sequel that manages to humanize the series' central character to great effect.
Although I think this is a pretty great spy action-thriller, it does not hold a candle to the excellent Martin Campbell film Casino Royale, which was released in the same year as Abrams' Mission: Impossible III. Casino Royale revitalized James Bond for a new audience. Mission: Impossible III did a similar thing, it just isn't as remarkable an achievement. Abrams didn't perfect the series or its formula, but he did bring it back in a satisfying way — and, in doing so, he elevated it to new heights in quality.
Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol – 2011 – Brad Bird
For Ghost Protocol, J. J. Abrams handed the reigns to the franchise to director Brad Bird who, in 2011, had made a name for himself as a director of animated films. Now, mind you, his animated filmography as a director is pretty remarkable. This was the guy behind Pixar hits The Incredibles and, the far superior, Ratatouille, as well as Warner Bros.' The Iron Giant.
Ghost Protocol was Bird's chance to prove himself as a live-action feature film director, and, boy, did he do just that. Ghost Protocol is decidedly more fun and silly than the Abrams film that preceded it. But it deftly overcame the challenging tonal tightrope act to become a thoroughly entertaining action film.
The differences in tone are striking, but the approach is not as confusingly different as it was in the jump from De Palma's Mission: Impossible to John Woo's sequel. The Moscow breakout sequence in the opening perfectly encapsulates the change in approach here.
There are two comic relief characters here — a Russian prisoner that they are breaking out and the returning character played by Simon Pegg, who generally adds a lot to this film. This was, at the time of release, Tom Cruise at his most stunt-excited. He nonchalantly and without a care in the world makes jumps, swing, punches, and whatnot — and he even makes a few fun glances at the surveillance camera.
Bird skillfully balances the fun of the action-thriller film series with the serious plot that the films must carry. Pairing the Moscow breakout sequence with "Ain't That a Kick in the Head" is such a fun choice — it is perfectly tongue-in-cheek.
Ghost Protocol also has its fair share of ridiculous spy-film moments. For example, when the, at the time, newly introduced character played by Jeremy Renner is able to identify and describe the antagonist based on a sketch on Ethan Hunt's palm. It is ridiculous, it is funny, and you let it slide because you believe there genuinely isn't anything that Hunt or his team cannot do.
With Ghost Protocol, Brad Bird reminds us that we can have fun with this action-spy franchise. This never seems or looks like a live-action debut. This is a busy, fun, and exciting entry in the franchise that figures out exactly how these films work best. The action sequences and set-pieces had, at the time of release, never been more imaginative and impressive. We still talk about the Burj Khalifa-scene, and it will likely go down in history as the most impressive and nail-bitingly thrilling sequence in the series. Unlike with Mission: Impossible III the great action-thriller sequences are memorable here.
Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation and more.
As mentioned in the article's introduction, I have previously reviewed Rogue Nation on this website, therefore I won't go into specifics here. Instead, you can read my original review of Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation by clicking here. For the purpose of this article, though, I would like to discuss my experience in rewatching the film.
The antagonist, or villain, in these films are generally disappointing or underwhelming. Philip Seymour Hoffman is the one exception. My biggest problem with Rogue Nation was the villain, and I also had some issues with the way Hunt overcame absolutely everything.
Those are issues that are lessened by watching the films back-to-back. The villain is seldom very compelling, and the grander action sequences in the franchise are rooted in an over-the-top John Woo sequel. It isn't exactly surprising that he overcomes everything at this point, but it can be exhausting watching him make it through it all. That said, I stand by my original score as noted in my original review.
When I have seen Mission: Impossible – Fallout and reviewed it, I will link to it in this article, and it will, obviously, appear on the site in a full review when posted. Hopefully, it proves to be even better than Rogue Nation — the film I had previously called the best in the series.
