The lens that flares in the night
Location: Ottawa, ON
Merry Christmas! And welcome back, so to speak. You've probably been wondering where I disappeared to when our tenth-anniversary celebration seemed to be going so well. And indeed, it was. I was having a great time with the event, and I was determined not to go MIA for once unless something truly huge came up.
Well, as it turned out, something did. I got accepted to the PhD program in pure math at my alma mater, Carleton University. I'm absolutely thrilled to be back in academia -- but when you've been away for a couple of years, transferring all your mental energy from potential to kinetic is hard work. And while I wanted to get the site back on track, getting my career back on track was a much higher priority. I was even too busy to update on my birthday, which I really like doing. (I'll have to settle for today being the 28th, which is the age I turned. Sigh.)
Don't get the wrong idea -- I'm not quitting 5M.net. RL just had to come first for a while. And if it has to do so again, it will. That's the deal. But right now, I'm finally in a position to ease the site back into my regimen.
XAW will resume next update. Before that, though, I've got something special for you. Not only is this a fiver for a show we've never so much as mentioned here, it's also written in a way I've never tried before. It is...
Five-Minute Breaking Bad (the pilot episode)
I decided to check out the show recently since I'd heard good things about it (suspiciously good things; it was setting off my overhype alarms). By the third scene or so, I was getting so many fiver ideas I had to start writing them down. And I wound up going through the whole episode this way, watching a few scenes at a time and then fiving them. It's the first fiver I've ever written completely blind -- not just unfamilar with the show, but unaware even what would happen next.
It's an experiment. For a show about chemistry, I figure that's appropriate. You'll probably get more out of it if you've seen the episode, but what else is new? Enjoy!

*Tap tap tap* Is this thing on?
An update is needed, Z. Schoolwork more than you were expecting? Just joined an exciting new club? Got a new girlfriend? What?
School, mostly. Though I feel like I'm making a bad joke even saying that, because while I'm busy with school, I'm not nearly busy enough -- I got slaughtered on my midterm today. Anyway, I'll see what I can do. There's some material around that's ready or close to it, and wouldn't be much work to post.
No April Fools event? You are busy.
Erm, Tenth Anniversary Year?
Why not? It's easier on the eyes than the anime screen was.
Season five of Breaking Bad premiered yesterday, so I took the opportunity to advertise this fiver. (I also whipped up a new image for the page.)
While I'm here, a couple of things I meant to answer before...
It's a reference to how they do the credits in the show. Each name has at least one elemental symbol emphasized; the main cast are Bryan Cranston, AnNa Gunn, AAron Paul, and so on. It's cute, but I'm betting at least half the audience doesn't get it.
Haven't seen the show (though I've heard it talked up as well). Did you like it?
Yes and no. I'm halfway through Season 2 so far; it's very good television, no question, but I don't really enjoy watching it. The heart of the show is Walt and the path his decisions lead him down. Apparently the writers' goal was to start with him sympathetic and make him gradually less so. Didn't work for me -- I despise Walt, and have from day one. He's like the Platonic ideal of dealing with your problems wrong. His noble goal of making enough money to support his family justifies everything: hurting people with the drugs he makes, keeping Pinkman stuck in a life he wants to escape, rejecting friends' kindness, kidnapping and killing people, telling lies within lies within lies... and most pathetic of all, driving away the very family he's doing it all for. He's using what little remains of his own life to make everyone else's hell.
I still have a couple of seasons to catch up on, so my opinion may change. But I've never related to Walt -- and I'm appalled at the idea that I should.
Yeah, the show never appealed to me from the beginning. There are, surprisingly, enough powerful, well-written, well-acted, well-produced TV shows out there which don't involve breaking the law and making people suffer as part of the show's premise that Breaking Bad never even caught my potential interest. I don't care how much praise it gets; I'm not going to watch.
Leverage started S5 last night too, and that's a helluva lot more fun. I believe Alphas and Warehouse 13 start their seasons either tonight or next Monday, Merlin S5 comes on in the fall, Once Upon a Time and Person of Interest were both renewed for S2, we still have to finish the entire back half of Grimm... We have enough to watch. Hell, I even finally picked up Doctor Who after being nagged by my best friend for two years, so we'll start watching that at some point this summer.
People keep telling me "You're a chemist, you should watch it." Here's the thing...most science on TV makes my degree hurt. I don't watch CSI because I'd be screaming "Wrong!" and throwing things at the TV within five minutes. Plus I don't really go in for angsty drama, people doing dumb things, and drug dealers.
Same deal with Glee: You like music and karaoke, you should watch Glee. First, most of the music I like predates my birth, so any current pop songs they do will be lost on me. Second, teen drama angst.
Two plus points that I forgot to mention are the acting and dialogue. I never get tired of watching Aaron Paul as Pinkman -- his mixture of biting sarcasm and utter dumbassness can make even horrific scenes entertaining. (During a fight over who has to kill a witness: "Oh well, heil Hitler, bitch! And let me tell you something else. We flipped a coin, okay? You and me. You and me! Coin flip is sacred! Your job is waiting for you in that basement, as per the coin!") The DEA agent brother-in-law, Hank, is a lot of fun too; he's coarse but has a really good heart, to the point where Walt, who's at great risk having him around, still clearly likes him. And while I dislike Walt, the many viewers who praise Bryan Cranston's acting will get no argument from me.
The chemistry content of the show is mostly trivia, but sometimes Walt puts his knowledge to practical use for more than just making meth. Where other criminals would just hack off a lock or shoot it, he'll use hydrofluoric acid or thermite or something. The best example is this awesome scene.
Sa'ar: Oh, NOW someone mentions Glee. I was really into the show around the time I started that "what other shows should we do" thread, and I was secretly hoping someone would suggest it. It's pretty cheesy and pushes its agenda way too blatantly, but it's lots of fun too.
My actual favourite shows right now are How I Met Your Mother and Parks & Recreation, but fivers of those would be redundant.
[ETA: Hmm, a link to this fiver is now kicking around Facebook, but I can't tell where it originates. What I really need is to get it on StumbleUpon -- several of our fivers get frequent visits from there. Most frequent? Five-Minute Sailor Moon, believe it or not. 138 likes!]
[EETA: Turns out you can add a few links to your own site on StumbleUpon, just not too many. I've added this. We'll see what happens...]

THREE goals in 12 second-half minutes consigned Crewe to their fifth consecutive away defeat.
The Alex were leading 1-0 through a Shaun Miller goal and were competing well when a deflected shot from Kyle Bennett made it 2-2 on 62 minutes.
That was a hammer blow to the Railwaymen and they quickly fell behind.
Bennett was allowed far to much space to receive the ball on the edge of the box and he picked his spot and beat keeper Rhys Taylor.
And the game was ended as a contest when Ryan Lowe played a one-two on the edge of the box before hitting his seventh goal in seven games.
After that Crewe tried to respond with decent chances for Danny Shelley and AJ Leitch-Smith but they good not beat keeper Cameron Belford to get a foothold in the game.
That makes it six games without a win for the Railwaymen and as a result they have slipped to 12th in League Two.
Travelling supporters voiced their anger when boss Dario Gradi withdrew Byron Moore and Clayton Donaldson late on.
It was a disappointing end to an afternoon that looked promising for a time.
Miller sped onto a Donaldson pass after a swift Alex counter attack and confidently finished past keeper Belford to break the deadlock.
Keeper Taylor had been largely untroubled despite a succession of corners and in fact, the Alex had forged the better openings at the other end.
Moore could have doubled the lead in stoppage time but elected to cross to Donaldson instead of shooting, and it was cut out.


What is a Heat Pumps and how does it work?
A heat pump is a piece of equipment that can not only heat but also has the ability to cool as well, which means there is no need to install separate systems to heat and cool your home, allowing home owners to save money. The three most common types of heat pumps are air-source, ground-source, and absorption heat pumps, all work basically the same way by transferring heat from one area to another this is accomplished through heat transfer, which is the process of mobbing heat from one location to another instead of burning fuel. Heat naturally wants to move from a location with a high temperature to an area with a low temperature, a heat pump uses a small amount of energy to reverse the process by pulling heat from a low temperature area, a "heat source" like the ground or air, to a "heat sink" like your house. Since heat is simply being transferred instead of being created by burning fossil fuels, a heat pump is more efficient an more green than a conventional heating and cooling system.
A water softener is a peace of equipment used to convert "hard" water to "soft" water. This is accomplished by pumping magnesium rich water into a water softener where it is surrounded by negatively charged beads that attract the positively charged magnesium & calcium. Next the sodium ions are injected into the water, which "softens" the water that is then pumped into your household plumbing. The problem with magnesium and calcium enriched "hard" water is that it doesn't allow soap to fully dissolve, which allows the soap to congeal on surfaces, fabrics, and skin creating a film.
How does a Geothermal Systems work?
Geothermal systems work by harnessing the suns energy, which is absorbed by the ground, and turns it into natural energy by using earth loops. These systems are very beneficial because they allow the customer to save up to 70% for heating, cooling, and hot water. This is possible because a geothermal unit delivers 5 units of energy for every on unit of electrical energy used. Also geothermal heating delivers a more evenly distributed heat as well as air conditioning, so you don't get the hot and cold spots like you would with a conventional heating an cooling system. Another reason these systems can be more cost efficient is because of the fact they do not produce any combustion gases they can be stored indoors which means they do not suffer from the wear and tear of conventional systems that are placed outside, so the require less maintenance. Geothermal systems are the most environmentally friendly heating and cooling systems available to day, and because of this through the Energy Improvement & Extension Act of 2008 customers can qualify for a one time tax credit up to 30 % of the total investment for installing a residential ground loop or ground water geothermal systems. There is also a tax credit available for 10% of the total investment for installing a commercial system as well. these tax credits are available now through December 31, 2021. There is going to be a gradual decrease of the federal tax credit in the next 4 years. For more information on Geothermal systems you can visit www.waterfurnace.com, you can also visit the energy star website for more information on the tax credits available by visiting www.energystar.go/index.cfm?c=tax_credits.tx_index.

In Brief: Free COVID-19 tests offered in lower Bavaria after outbreak on vegetable farm
At least 174 harvest workers tested positive for the coronavirus over the weekend.

Updated Tuesday, July 28 at 4:30 p.m.
The Bavarian state government is offering free COVID-19 testing to thousands of residents in lower Bavaria following an outbreak on a vegetable farm there this weekend.
At least 174 harvest workers tested positive for the coronavirus, leaving the entire operation now under quarantine.
In response to the outbreak, Bavarian state premier Markus Soeder told reporters on Monday that there would be more spot inspections on farms to make sure companies were following the required hygiene concepts.
The Christian Social Union (CSU) leader also announced fines for those that violate the rules would increase five-fold from 5,000 to 25,000 euros.
Critics from the Social Democratic Party (SPD) blamed Soeder over the weekend for not preventing the outbreak, saying he and his state government failed to ensure working and living conditions for harvesters were safe.
Meanwhile, amid fears of a second coronavirus wave in Germany, free COVID-19 tests will soon be available at Berlin's Tegel and Schönefeld airports for those returning from high-risk countries.
Tests remain voluntary, though public officials are split on whether to start requiring them.
Berlin's Health Senator Dilek Kalayci told public broadcaster ZDF that mandatory testing presents privacy and legal issues.
She said such a requirement could be possible only after Germany's federal health ministry clarifies those concerns, which are currently under review.
Germany's disease prevention authority classifies as many as 130 countries as high-risk for COVID-19. EU member states are not in this group.
Check here for up-to-date information regarding the management of COVID-19 in Berlin.
The 24-year-old driver who crashed his car in front of the Zoologischer Garten train station this weekend was released from custody yesterday, though an investigation is still ongoing.
The man drove onto a sidewalk around 7:20 a.m. on Sunday, injuring six people. Police say he had a blood-alcohol level of .07%, which is above the legal limit for drivers.
Three of the people injured in the crash are still in intensive care.
Police said on Monday they were dropping their initial investigation into the driver on suspicion of attempted manslaughter.
The man will still be investigated for "dangerous interference in road traffic."

Marvel's Hawkeye: Poster For The Series Finale Assembled All The Main Characters
By Lukas Abramovich / December 21, 2021 July 4, 2022
In less than 24 hours, the series finale of Marvel's Hawkeye will be released on Disney+. After the first five episodes, we can see there are plenty of things that the finale needs to explain and/or solve.
Last week, the penultimate episode of the series brought up many twists and turns. The biggest one is certainly the reveal of the big guy. As most of the fanbase expected, Vincent D'Onofrio returned as Wilson Fisk, also known as Kingpin from Netflix's series Daredevil. As for other twists and turns, we have Maya and Yelena's grudge against Clint and Kate who got caught in the crossfire.
Maya is also suspecting that her friend Kazi might be responsible for her father's death, and let's not forget Kate's mother Eleanor who got her fiancé arrested, only to be revealed that she works with Kingpin and she hired Yelena to assassinate Clint. Are we sure that a 59-minute finale will be enough for all of this?
RELATED: Marvel's Hawkeye: Penultimate Episode Is Full Of Twists And Turns
Ahead of the episode's release, Marvel revealed the official poster and one final short promo for the finale. The poster assembled all the main characters of the series, with Kingpin's shadow over all of them.

Peace Corps Volunteer Authorization for Examination and/or Treatment
The Sam Farr and Nick Castle Peace Corps Reform Act of 2018 (Farr-Castle), modified various aspects of the Peace Corps, including changes to the provision of health care to volunteers. Under the provisions of the FECA, 5 U.S.C. §8142 of the FECA provides that, (a) For the purpose of this section, "volunteer" means-- (1) a volunteer enrolled in the Peace Corps under section 2504 of title 22; (2) a volunteer leader enrolled in the Peace Corps under section 2505 of title 22; and (3) an applicant for enrollment as a volunteer or volunteer leader during a period of training under section 2507(a) of title 22 before enrollment. Entitlement to disability compensation payments does not commence until the day after the date of termination of service as a volunteer. 5 U.S.C. 8142(b). Farr-Castle directs the Secretary of the Department of Labor to authorize the Director of the Peace Corps to furnish medical benefits to a volunteer, who is injured during the volunteer's period of service, for a period of 120 days following the termination of such service if the Director certifies that the volunteer's injury probably meets the requirements set forth in 5 U.S.C. 8142(c)(3). In view of the provisions required by passage of this bill, the Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP) and the Peace Corps have collaborated to initiate a new form, CA-15, Peace Corps Volunteer Authorization for Examination and/or Treatment, that will authorize medical treatment for recently terminated Peace Corps volunteers who require medical treatment for injuries/exposure sustained in the performance of their volunteer service. Issuance of this form will solely be at the discretion of the Peace Corps, and will bridge a gap between the occurrence of an initial injury and/or disease exposure and the actual adjudication of a claim by OWCP by helping ensure that recently terminated volunteers receive prompt medical care, without delay, for a period of 120 days following separation from service.
The latest form for Peace Corps Volunteer Authorization for Examination and/or Treatment expires 2023-04-30 and can be found here.

Reductress » More Women Than Ever Are Running For Office? Um, I'd Rather Run FROM My Office!
More Women Than Ever Are Running For Office? Um, I'd Rather Run FROM My Office!
Record numbers of women are running for elected office this year? Pfft! As soon as the clock hits 5:00, I practically run FROM my office! LOL TGIF!
Someone told me that, historically, women are less likely to think they are qualified to run even when they have the same amount of experience as men. Um, how's this for experience: I still don't know how to edit a PDF! And I don't WANNA know! Microsoft Word is enough! Sheesh! Amirite ladies?!?!
I also hear that while half the American population is female, only 1 out of every 5 representatives currently in Congress are women. Well, I only WORK about 1 out of every 5 "work days!" Working hard? More like HARDLY WORKING! I surf the internet constantly! Yahoo News is my third child – out of wedlock, if you know what I mean!!
Around three-quarters of the women running this year are Democrats? Well, the other day I put three quarters into the break room vending machine, and NOTHING came out! My Smartfood got STUCK! I nearly marched into my boss's office and QUIT right then and there! If I can't keep a full snack drawer, how am I supposed to get through TUESDAY? ACK!!
People say that when women have a seat at the table, equality for other marginalized groups follows. Honey, I'll take a SEAT anywhere I can find! Standing desks are HORRIFIC, and don't even get me started on those EXERCISE BALL chairs! The only place worse than the office is the GYM! WTF! Get that crap out of here! I want to lay down.
Someone kept gabbin' at me recently, saying that with more women were in power, reproductive health care would be more accessible and less regulated. Um, that actually sounds pretty good to me! Hell, I'd have a baby, if it would mean several weeks of paid time OFF! I really hate to work.
In 1992 so many women were elected to the Senate that it was deemed "The Year of the Woman." Uh, when we gonna get started on "The WEEKEND Of The Woman?!" I wanna try one of those clay masks! If you need me, I'll be on the COUCH!
This November, a record number of women will be on the ballot. And supposedly, female voters will also turn out in record numbers. You won't find me there though. I'll be listening to SPOTIFY all day in my cube, while trying to hide from my boss!


The Nain Department of Health and Social Development will be holding a plus size women invitation.
The workouts will be held at Jeremias Sillitt Center workout room.
This will be held 5 days a week, from Monday to Friday.
Workouts will be for an hour from 7pm-8pm.
Workouts will include: Weights, Kettle Bells, 2 Treadmills, 2 Exercise Bikes, 1 Elliptical, 1 Rower, 2 Weight Benches.
This is only for plus size women, space is limited.
For further information or if you have any questions please contact Susan Saksagiak at 922-2182.

Els Boerhof listed as a Top 100 Philanthropic Influencer
Els Boerhof, managing partner at Goodwell Investments, has been listed as one of the Top 100 most influential people in philanthropy in the Netherlands. Being included on the list is a great honour for both Els and Goodwell. It demonstrates her dedication to impact investment and Goodwell's commitment to supporting the growth of inclusive businesses.
The Top 100 Most Influential People in Philanthropy is presented by De Dikke Blauwe. DDB is an initiative of the Lenthe Foundation who have been promoting social generosity for over 20 years.
DDB100 is an the annual ranking of influencers in Dutch philanthropy and provide an overview of people making important and structural contributions to charity and social investment. Listed at number 70, Els has been recognised for her promotion of impact investing and leadership within Goodwell, a Dutch-based impact investment company that provides venture capital to local entrepreneurs in Sub-Saharan Africa. She has been instrumental in fostering Goodwell's collaborative and local-led approach to investing, a core component of their success to date.
Els Boerhof joined Goodwell Investments as a partner in 2008. She manages Goodwell's West Africa financial inclusion fund and is responsible for Goodwell's uMunthu fund and has previously been named Enterprising Women of the Year in the Netherlands.
The full English translation of the ranking is below (originally in Dutch).
In 2015 at Filanthropium Summit in Hackfort Castle, Els Boerhof, managing partner of Goodwell Investments, was already promoting the increasing importance of investing in addition to donating. The emerging trend of impact investing has since become a strong movement. In the meantime, Goodwell Investments appears in the prestigious Impact Assets 50 ranking for the second year in a row. Goodwell owes this listing to, among others, the uMunthu Fund, which provides venture capital to local entrepreneurs in Sub-Saharan Africa. The target for this fund is €100million, with €45 million already raised. Goodwell promotes an active and locally-led approach with 'boots on the ground', as opposed to the easy-going 'armchair banking'. With her company, Els Boerhof is an example of how you can spur systemic change by advancing financial inclusion, enabling underserved people to participate in financial transactions and gain access to formal financial services.

Alexander Ludwig  kanadai színész, énekes és modell. Karrierjét először gyerekként kezdte, majd tinédzserként az Ébredő sötétség (2007) és A Boszorkány-hegy (2009) című filmek főszereplésével szerzett elismerést. Az Éhezők viadalában (2012) Cato nevű szerepével vált híressé.

Emellett ismert Shane Patton mellékszereplőként A túlélőben (2013) és Dornként a Bad Boys – Mindörökké rosszfiúkban (2020). A History Channel Vikingek (2014-2020) című sorozatában Bjorn szerepét ő alakította. Jelenleg a Heels című sorozatban játszik.

Élete

Ludwig a kanadai Vancouverben, Brit Columbia államban született Sharlene (Martin) egykori színésznő és Harald Horst Ludwig üzletember, a Lions Gate Entertainment korábbi társelnökének gyermekeként. Három fiatalabb testvére van. Ludwigot mindig is vonzotta a színészet, egy interjúban elárulta: "Nagy a fantáziám. Imádok szerepelni". Annak ellenére, hogy édesanyja már korán színésznőként karriert futott be, Ludwignak meg kellett győznie szüleit, hogy támogassák, amikor gyerekként színészkedni akart. A szülei úgy vélték, a gyerekszínészeket "beszippanthatja egy olyan élet, amely nem a valóság". A Dél-kaliforniai Egyetemen szerzett színházi diplomát, ahol tagja volt a Phi Kappa Psi testvériségnek.

Magánélete

Ludwig versenyszerű freestyle síelő volt, és részt vett ejtőernyőzésben is. 2019 februárjában nyilvánosságra hozta a 14 éves korában kezdődő depresszióval, szorongással, alkoholizmussal és kábítószerrel való visszaéléssel kapcsolatos problémáit.

2021-ben feleségül vette Lauren Dear-t.

The Gallery of Iconic Guitars (GIG) celebrated its grand opening on Tuesday (April 25) at Belmont University in Nashville, with performances from Vince Gill and Ricky Skaggs, along with current Belmont graduate student Ben Valine, a commercial guitar performance major from Forest Lake, Minnesota. A vintage instrument museum, the GIG features a collection of rare stringed instruments and educates visitors on their history and design, providing an intimate, up-close vantage point that will serve to inspire collectors and music enthusiasts alike.
The GIG is the result of a gift to Belmont University of nearly 500 historically significant instruments and supporting endowment—amounting to a total value of approximately $10.5 million—from the estate of the late Steven Kern Shaw. Shaw was a collector, philanthropist and the grandson of Jerome Kern who was a prominent American composer of musical theater and popular music (responsible for such classic songs as "Ol' Man River," "The Way You Look Tonight" and "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes").
Instruments currently on display at the new museum include a 1939 Martin D-45 acoustic guitar valued at $350,000, a 1923 Gibson F-5 mandolin signed by Lloyd Loar, and a 1960 Gibson Les Paul Standard Sunburst electric guitar worth $225,000.
The GIG is open to the public Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. and Sunday from 1-5 p.m. Admission is $5, and free for children under 12 as well as Belmont students, faculty and staff. Visit thegigatbelmont.com for more information and to purchase tickets.

'Action man' Andrew Cuomo suddenly hiding behind Trump at huge cost to MTA
By Nicole Gelinas
Christopher Sadowski
Loree Sutton bringing needed sense on crime to the 2021 mayoral race
$2,000 for everyone is foolish — better to target aid to those who need it
Christmas memories: What I started to learn at 18
We need to save Manhattan retail to protect jobs for outer-borough dwellers
The Federal Reserve emergency-lending program deserved to die
What happened to Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Man of Action? Last week, in response to news that Team Trump is holding up the state's plan to charge drivers to enter most of Manhattan next year, the governor didn't sue or vow to outsmart the feds. Instead, he shrugged: "I'm not holding my breath for them to approve congestion pricing." What gives? Well, a delay in congestion pricing is awfully convenient for the governor.
Why do the feds have anything to do with congestion pricing, approved by the state Legislature last March? Under federal law, New York must do an environmental analysis for any big project with "significant environmental impact." These environmental reports can be little — or big.
Last spring, according to Politico, the state-controlled Metropolitan Transportation Authority, which will build the congestion-pricing system and benefit financially from it, asked the feds whether it should do an assessment or a statement, and the feds just … didn't answer. So, according to Cuomo, that's that.
Action-Man Cuomo would have directed the MTA to take a more aggressive posture. The MTA could have prepared a short "environmental assessment," hiring consultants to say the scheme will help the environment by discouraging people from driving. The MTA could start preparing the longer document, just in case. It requires public hearings, which are a pain, but the city completed its environmental-impact statement for its four-borough jails from start to finish in 14 months, meaning the MTA would be almost done now.
The feds could reject the statement, sure. Or private citizens could sue, claiming deficiencies. But they're going to do that anyway; see the three lawsuits filed recently over the borough-jails plan. The MTA may as well do everything it can to get congestion pricing started by January 2021.
Instead, the MTA is setting a strange precedent for political retribution — by meekly accepting it.
Or maybe Cuomo has already gotten the political benefit he needs from congestion pricing and doesn't see the point of suffering the political downside.
Consider: When Cuomo signed congestion pricing into law last year, transit and environmental advocates lauded him as a brave visionary. Image as environmental steward, fixed.
Based on expected future revenues — $1.5 billion a year — state officials approved the MTA's new, five-year $51.5 billion capital plan. Commercial real-estate and construction industries, fixed.
And with the MTA's finances stabilized for the moment, albeit weakly, the governor could do a nice deal with the subway and bus workers' union late last year, without any other important constituencies complaining; they, too, had theirs already. TWU, fixed.
The MTA needed the promise of a big new revenue source to get all of these things done. Hence, congestion pricing.
MTA to offer discounts for in-city LIRR, Metro-North trips
Beginning as soon as May 1, such Long Island Railroad...
In practical terms, though, it doesn't need the money — at least, not yet. The MTA has spent less than half of the $33.3 billion approved for the last five-year capital program, which expired last year.
With the immediate political emergency gone, it may have occurred to Cuomo that congestion pricing is just one giant toll, and this is a man who hates raising tolls. The governor has completed the long-awaited replacement for the Tappan Zee Bridge, the Mario M. Cuomo bridge. But drivers still aren't paying a higher toll to pay the $4 billion cost.
Indeed, the governor once delayed issuing bonds for the Tappan Zee to avoid having to put out a toll schedule. Were the MTA to start its enviro process right now, it would have to make a range of tolls public. And now the governor has new problems. A statewide plastic-bag ban goes into effect in a week; Cuomo is already taking small-biz blowback there.
He also needs to fix bail "reform" to placate the Legislature's suburban moderates — whose cooperation he needs to fix his Medicaid budget mess and fend off lefty pressure for tax hikes. But those moderates happen to be the faction queasy about congestion pricing.
So Cuomo doesn't need the MTA to spend the rest of the year talking out loud about how much the congestion fee should be, and what special interests should and shouldn't be exempt.
In the upside-down world of Cuomo's Albany, what to most people looks like a problem — mean old vindictive President Trump thwarting his fearless plan to break car culture — is actually a solution.

Description: Automatic Screwdriver antenna controller for Yaesu ATAS-100. Direct interface with ICOM IC706 series and Alinco DX-70.
You can write your own review of the AM-COM ASAC-100.
I had an ASAC-100 for abt 7 monthes. It tuned my Carolina Cyclone screwdriver antenna fine on all bands. I used it with a 706MKIIg. Grounding MUST be done right and well! I have to agree with the last post, just because the company is gone does not mean the equipment is bad. I no longer use the ASAC because i changed trucks and now use the AH4 with the 706.
Just installed combination ICOM IC-706MKIIG, Yaesu ATAS-100,ASAC-100 into new Nissan Xterra and extremely pleased with results. It works as advertised- just push the "tune" button and it automatically moves the ATAS-100 to lowest SWR achievable with your installation. Notice I said "achievable". The ASAC-100 is not an antenna tuner. It only provides the motor voltage to move the screwdriver and detects a 50-ohm load. Proper GROUNDING of the ATAS-100 is absolutely essential in its installation to achieve lowest SWR. I was able to achieve 1.1 SWR on all bands 10-40 meters and 1.7 on 6 meters. Haven't tried it on 144 or 440 as I use another antenna for those bands. Still experimenting with grounding to lower SWR on 6 meters as IC-706 cuts back power over 1.5. Only "quirk" I've noticed is after setting the "target" SWR on 12 meters, then tuning to another band and going back to 12 meters, the controller will miss the target and continue searchig beyond the lowest SWR. All the other bands hit the target and stop on the lowest SWR. Carlos at AM-COM is very helpful and accomodating with any questions and hints. Perhaps this is another grounding issue and am still tinkering. Otherwise, system works great, getting good signal reports. Used Hamsticks before, was pleased with their performance, but the convenience of changing bands on the fly, not even looking at the SWR meter, is super and safer. Anyone else having the 12 meter problem with this or the original ASAC (for other brands of screwdrivers)? Maybe a software glitch?

Q: Posting form from one iframe to another - IE This appears to be an age old problem. But I can't seem to find a solution to it.
I have a page with two iframes on it. They are loading as such:

I then want to post something from the leftIframe to the right and refresh the leftIframe at the same time. This I have done through target frame and onclick function. On the leftIframe I have this:
<form action="predict_rightframe.php" method="post" name="form1" id="form1" target="rightIframe"><input type="checkbox" name="goalkeepers" value="1" onclick="this.form.submit(); window.location.reload(true)">

This works fine and super duper on Chrome. But when checking on Firefox and IE, the frame is opened in a new window.
Is there anyway around this?
I believe there is a "hack" whereby you can get javascript to create a frame. But there only advice I have found is how to create a hidden frame (see here) But I want this frame to be visible.
Any help on this issue will be extremely helpful - even if its just adapting the above link's javascript code to create a visible iframe.

A: I have fixed this! This has taken up hours of my time.
But if anyone has the same problem. Here is the solution..
Create a file called frame.js with these details:
   var filePath = 'predict_rightframe.php';
// Setup the iframe target
var iframe='';
// Write the iframe to the page
document.write(iframe);

var myIframe = parent.document.getElementById("frame");
// Setup the width and height
myIframe.height = 450;
myIframe.width = 300;

myIframe.src = filePath;
// set the style of the iframe
myIframe.style.border = "0px solid #999";
myIframe.style.padding = "0px";

Then where you want the iframe to appear just put:

I'm not overly sure why this works (frankly, I dont care cos it works!). It is something to do with IE not thinking an iframe is an object. Javascript can make IE think it is an object...well anyways now it works.

January 5th 2018 I had a large lump removed and discovered the Doctor didn't get it all when I went for am MRI. The doctor said they have had good results with a Hormone blocker or I could have more surgery. I chose the hormone blocker. I had to go back in 6 months for another Breast MRI and Praise God I am Cancer free!! I know God healed me!
I need these promises today …. Know them, but my mind is going in the wrong direction, so thank you so much Lisa.
That's so true, Lois. We can *know* them but reminding ourselves one more time what God says redirects our heart and mind.

Great words of hope, Lisa!
Thanks for encouraging my heart today!
Lisa, thanks so much for renewing my faith today with these reminders and promises from Scripture. It is true that life is almost never easy. But we have the Hope of God with Us!
Scripture is such a head lifter!

ХК Донбас () украјински је професионални хокејашки клуб из града Доњецка. Основан је 2001, а од сезоне 2012/13. такмичи се у Континенталној хокејашкој лиги.

У сезони 2012/13. Донбас је освојио континентални куп ИИХФ.

Историјат клуба
Професионални хокејашки клуб Донбас основан је 2001. године, а име је добио по географској регији у којој се налази град Доњецк — Доњецком басену или скраћено Донбасу. Исте године учествовао је у првенствима Белорусије и Украјине и на оба такмичења је заузео треће место. Међутим, на крају сезоне клуб је расформиран и привремено је престао са радом.

Након скоро четворогодишње паузе, клуб је обновио свој рад у децембру 2005. под именом Доњецк-Колбико и аплицирао је за учешће у украјинском нижелигашком такмичењу већ у јануару месецу. Иако су играчи тренирали на леденој површини језера Јасиноватаја (услед недостатка вештачког леда у дворани), успели су да се пласирају у финале своје дивизије. Али нису успели да путем плејофа обезбеде пласман у највиши ранг националног првенства за следећу сезону. Пошто је овај ранг такмичења отказан за наредне две сезоне, хокејаши Донбаса су се у периоду од 2006. до 2008. такмичили једино на разним турнирима.

На национално првенство Донбас се враћа током 2008. као део источне дивизије, а већ наредне сезоне Донбас се такмичио у Дивизији А, где је након регуларног дела заузео 5. место, док је у четвртфиналу поражен од кијевских Билиј Барса.

Током 2010. власник клуба постаје украјински бизнисмен Борис Колесников са којим почиње и успон доњецког хокеја. Исте сезоне Донбас постаје првак Украјине и први освајач националног првенства који долази ван подручја главног града Кијева.

Победа у националном првенству је доњечким хокејашима осигурала и пласман на континентални куп за сезону 2011/12, на којем су освојили треће место. За најбољег одбрамбеног играча турнира проглашен је Донбасов играч Владимир Малевич.

У сезони 2011/12. клуб се такмичио у руској ВХЛ лиги (други ранг руског хокеја), а формиран је и резервни тим Донбас 2 који се такмичио у националном првенству (где је по други пут освојио титулу).

Чланство у КХЛ лиги
У јулу 2012. управа Континенталне хокејашке лиге (КХЛ) донела је одлуку о пуноправном чланству за ХК Донбас. У КХЛ лиги екипа је дебитовала у сезони 2012/13. коју је окончала на 9. позицији западне конференције, не успевши да се пласира у доигравање.

Донбас је у јануару 2013. по трећи пут учествовао на континенталном купу ИИХФ, на којем је на домаћем терену у Арени Дружба са три победе (белоруски Металург 1:0; италијански Болцано 3:0 и француски Руан драгонс 7:1) успео да освоји титулу победника.
