Today the boys and I are in Boston today is kind of busy because they have an interview at 11:00am so they spent extra time getting but I didn't because I'm not getting interviewed I'm not famous. "You look beautiful love" Daniel said pecking my lips then cheek then forehead. "Well I think you look fabulous" I said doing a dramatic pose "why thank you" he said pretended to flip his hair then he took my hand and kissed it "I enjoy the love Seavey" I said while patting his shoulders "I love you" he said while going in the bathroom to do his hair as I followed him "why do you have perfect hair?" I said leaving the bathroom. I left my room to go to see what the others were doing "heyyy" I said "hey Ashley" they all said at the same time "where's my best friend "um he's brushing his teeth" Corbyn said while checking his phone. "Hi bestie" I said while sitting on the sink "are you gonna do something to your hair?" I asked honestly "you really think I'm gonna wear mg hair like this?" He asked "we should match today" I said ignoring his question. "Sure" he said shrugging "here's behind the scenes of the Zach Herron" I said while recording him doing his hair. He gave me the 'seriously' look and I zoomed in on his face and posted that video in my stories.  After that I got down and I went back in the room. "So Ashley how are you and Daniel holding up" Corbyn asked for some reason but I ignored the question and went back to my room "You Still didn't answer my question!!" Corbyn right before I walked out. "Hi Jack" I said "OK are you guys ready?" I asked "yea" Daniel said and we headed out after knocking on the other boys door we headed to the interview place it was inside and they all sat down with microphones and stuff the guy started asking questions about tour and how they like It so far then he asked about embarrassing moments and fans. After that they asked about their love life "So any of you single?" He asked then Corbyn smiled and all the of the boys laughed "um two of them are taken" Zach said "so which ones are taken?" The guy said "us" Corbyn and Daniel said at the same time then they showed pictures me and Daniel then of Christina and Corbyn "Yea but her name is Ashley she's incredible" he said then Corbyn said some stuff about Christina but I didn't remember because all I remembered was Daniel calling me incredible. The interview was over and they headed straight to the venue. It wasn't pretty far so we got there in about 5 minutes when we got out it was a lot of fans lined  up it wrapped around the building we went in from the front and everyone was screaming so we ran inside. As we were at soundcheck Daniel went to grab some water and I followed him "hey Daniel thanks " I said "thanks for what?" He said in confusion "thanks for calling me incredible" I say while wrapping my arms around Hus neck "well you are" he said kissing my forehead and going back to practice. Today was the same as yesterday so I decided to get some food alone. I went to Wendy's because the boys aren't around so I can eat however I want. I order my food then caught and Uber back to the hotel and I went live on Instagram. People kept commenting dance so I did as they wanted I put on Humble because I used phone and brought my speaker with me and I started dancing then I played Kiss or Diss "okay guys comment some names down and I'll pick some" I said while eating a fry "ooo Shawn Mendes or Justin Bieber? I'll kiss JB and diss Shawn sorry but I love his music though" after 30 minutes of that I had like a bunch of hours to spend so I face timed Hunter "hiii" I said smiling "heyyy" Brandon his brother said "you are not Hunter" I said "Hunterrr your girlfriend is on the phone!!!" He screamed then Hunter snatched the phone away "sorry about that" He said closing a door "it's fine" I said "so how are you?" He asked smiling "I'm great and who's that in the background? I said looking at him "oh that's Blake say hi" he responded with a wave and smile. When I got done talking with him I benged watched Riverdale then I Heard a door open "heyyy" Daniel said sitting next to me "hi" I said looking at him "I'm so tired" he said while yarning and putting his head o. my shoulder "well get some sleep" I said. Then he went to sleep some minutes later.

I am Linda Vallee and am a salesperson with Revell Real Estate in Wiarton. I am originally from the Windsor region, but fell in love with Grey and Bruce counties quite a few years ago and decided to move here in 2010. My husband and I currently reside in South Bruce Peninsula, after purchasing our forever home in 2013. On a typical weekday evening, you can find me reading a book with a glass of red wine (or a cup of tea if it's chilly outside). I also enjoy spending time with my family, expanding my culinary skills in our kitchen and traveling to see the world.
Real estate has always fascinated me. I am one of those MLS "junkies" who can spend hours simply looking at homes for sale, to the point of scaring my husband because he thinks I want to move again! I was a teacher but in 2015, was promoted to a Stay at Home Mom. When an opportunity came to become a realtor, I had to jump on it! What better way to be able to fulfill one of my lifelong dreams and have a flexible schedule to still be able to take care of my two little ones.
Whether you need to buy or sell, I will be completely dedicated to you and your needs. I am passionate about helping you find your perfect home, whether it's your starter home, forever home or something in between. With your list of needs and wants, I will be able to find you that home you need!
I also know how stressful selling a home can be. That's why I want to do most of the work even before your home hits the market. Working together, we will stage your home to highlights its best features. A professional photographer will also provide you with beautiful pictures as well as a virtual tour, which will get your home noticed and sold! My extensive social media skills will also come to play and help connect your home with potential buyers through all possible streams.
I am looking forward to helping you navigate the world of real estate. Call, text or e-mail and let our lifelong real estate relationship begin!

(LA)Phil/The Industry Flexes Fluxus With Cage's "Europeras"
Written by Lauren Deutsch | 19th Nov 2018 | Festivals, Los Angeles, Review, Theatre and Opera, United States of America

John Cage's Europera 1 and Europera 2, (aka Europeras 1 & 2) was presented by The Industry, the opera company directed by Yuval Sharon / conducted by Mark Lowenstein, in collaboration with 23 members of the Los Angeles Philharmonic's New Music group at Sony Studios November 6, 10 and 11, 2018. It is a highlight of the Phil's FLUXUS Festival honoring the orchestra's centenary and supported by The Getty Research Institute. Sharon is artist-collaborator of the LA Phil and dedicated to unconventional staging of equally unconventional operas, such as Hopscotch, about which I also wrote a piece.
First performed in Frankfurt in 1987, the 2 pieces (of the total 5) recycles 18th and 19th-century European operatic arias presented in "random" staging. Cage built the work upon an armature of oracular divination with the iChing, a process that was automated in 1984 by Andrew Culver by means of a computer language designed to mimic the millennia-old system. Theatrical elements (vocal and instrumental music, scenery/lighting/props and acting/blocking/words) were arranged in time and space dictated by Culver's original algorithmic functions.
Through this process Cage doesn't ask the participants (actors, musicians, audience, designers, and crew) to make "sense" of it so that it fits some mold; rather, he wishes to emphasize the independence of each "element." Thus, the work is not de-construction, but perhaps pre-construction. Still, there is some expectation by the audience and performers.

Not being well versed in the European operatic oeuvre, I was happy to take it for what it would be…more an ichi go ichi e opportunity…that Zen Buddhist principle that just this one moment in time cannot be repeated and can be appreciated for whatever it is.
Given that we live in an era driven by critical studies, in preparing for the spectacle and the writing of this piece afterwards, I wondered whether it is OK to be in a heightened state of anticipation, not to mention expectation, for a work that is specifically designed to defy both impulses. Wishing to be in synch with the spirit and letter of Cage's process, I also threw my fate to chance by consulting two oracles of my own choosing.
The first was Google. The following are some of the chance results:
Wikipedia entry about the Europeras(1 – 5)
An in-depth analysis of Europera
Mark Swed's great review of the Europeras in The Los Angeles Times
Cage's Bio complements of the LA Phil
Andrew Culver's DOS – based experimental music software utility programs (ic and tic)for simulating the I Ching coin oracle. These developed out of Culver's programming of the iChing for use by John Cage.
iching.exe
Culver's Bio complements of AnarchicHarmony
More images from FLUXUS: Cage's Europeras 1&2
The second oracle I approached also was the iChing itself. In this system, everything in life can be expressed through the correlation of the 8 elements of the BaGua: fire, wind, water, lake, mountain, earth, thunder, and heaven, with 64 possibilities of their combination.
Then, as a result of current events in Los Angeles, I lost focus…My attention has been consumed by the tragedy of the monstrous fire we are experiencing in Los Angeles. The fire on the mountains, fire devouring the earth, moisture-sucking wind driving fire, fire assaulting Pacific Ocean beaches, fire engulfing homes along Malibu Lake, fire under heaven! In the iChing system "fire" challenges clinging impulses. What can we let go? A house? A pet giraffe? Photos? Hopes? Dreams? Favorite surfboards?
Cage once wrote, "For two hundred years the Europeans have been sending us their operas. Now I'm sending them back." Europe, the source of those arias in Cage's work, couldn't be farther from my mind, and yet the work couldn't be timelier! These beautiful artworks were imported and vaulted into "high" culture of our midst by the same colonial forces would deny refugee status to desperate migrants at our borders today.
Thinking about the great local loss to the elements (not to mention the recent wonton slaughter of 12 people in a nearby bar by an ex-Marine with a loaded gun, PTSD, and a history of mental instability), the soundtrack of this moment became the magnificent operatic poem Unetaneh Tokef came. Written about a thousand years ago by an unknown author in Northern Europe, the liturgical poem is traditionally sung during religious services at the commencement of each Jewish new year. It includes the litany of wonder about fate:
How many will pass and how many created? …
Who by fire and who by water? …
Who by the sword and who by wild beast? …
In this well-planned approach, chance still rules life. What were the chances that in this heightened state of awareness that I would miss having this once in a lifetime experience? 1:10,000? That's what happened. So what! It proves Cages premise, that even up the curtain time, things were changing. Hence I'm writing this essay and sharing production stills.
Michel Foucault described the situation perfectly in an article at Slate about the power of algorithms to solve problems: It's "… a sort of distributed force, one that derives from the way we internalize norms and expectations rather than from the dictates of presidents and kings. [It's] not the power of an individual actor who knows too much, but the power of a system to which we've already submitted."
Note: Thanks to Jim Farber who mentions that the Marx Brothers filmed A Night At The Opera (1935) on the lot when it was MGM's facility!

MF Doom, The Masked Man
Daniel Dumile, alias MF DOOM, lived a thousand lives and his career was a succession of false starts and bright flashes. Before passing away on the 31st of October, 2020, Dumile had been a young virtuoso rapper welcomed with open arms by the music industry, then an outcast that sneaked back onto the scene through the back door after years of wandering (now masked), the 'go-to-guy' of independent rap during the 2000s and then some kind of Indie messiah as dubbed by Thom Yorke and Flying Lotus. Elusive, whimsical, a trickster and a money maker, DOOM rewrote the rules of rap music, rubbed people up the wrong way and paved the way for a whole generation of MCs.
The Pioneers of Rock'n'Roll
Rock'n'roll isn't dead. But you can count the pioneers of the genre who are still alive on two fingers: Jerry Lee Lewis and Wanda Jackson. They're 84 and 82. Lewis was a wild rocker signed with Sun Records who made history by igniting his instrument and transforming church music, country and boogie-woogie into wicked rock'n'roll. Jackson was a country singer who had a brilliant career alongside Elvis. Going from Little Richard to Chuck Berry, not forgetting Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, Bo Diddley, Bill Haley, Elvis Presley, Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochran, Buddy Holly and Hank Williams, Qobuz pays tribute to the precursors of rock.

Operation Bullpen Makeover Status Report
Welcome to the Nats Mr. Gott. Photo via gettyimages
At the end of the 2015 season, our (primary 7-man not including 9/1 callups) bullpen looked like this:
Papelbon, Janssen, Treinen, Thornton*, Rivero*, Fister and Solis* (Stammen, Barrett, Storen on the D/L)
Then half these guys (Janssen, Thornton and Fister) hit the road via Free Agency, already leaving huge holes to fill. In fact as of just a week ago after this was what our Opening Day 2016 bullpen would have looked like:
Papelbon, Storen, Treinen, Stammen, Rivero*, Solis* and Martin as a long-man I guess (Barrett to go to the 60 day D/L as soon as he's eligible).
After a flurry of moves in the past 10 days, here's what we're looking at now:
(Papelbon, Storen) Gatt, Kelley, Treinen, Perez*, Rivero*, Petit
And presumably there's more work to be done (you have to think we'll acquire a Proven Closer™ to replace the Papelbon/Storen combo). But, so far, not a bad week for Mr. Rizzo.
Quick thoughts on each move (in chronological order)
Craig Stammen non-tender: discussed at length in the Non-tender deadline preview post comment section. I didn't like it for reasons discussed ad naseum, but agree that the team must have decided the risk was too much.
Oliver Perez signing 2yrs/$7M: good 2015 numbers in the NL with Arizona, then not so much in 12 innings with Houston. His LHP-LHB splits are good while righties hit him at an .881 OPS clip in 2015. I guess that's as good of a Matt Thornton replacement as we need.
Yusmeiro Petit signing 1yr/$2.5M after getting non-tendered by SF. An odd move by SF; his 2015 regular season numbers were just fine to me. An ERA+ over a 100, flexibility to go long or go short. And the Nats certainly remember getting shut down by him in the 2014 NLDS. A good move for me as a near like-for-like replacement for Stammen (with the exception that Petit can go longer than Stammen could so he could be the long-man as needed).
Shawn Kelley for 3yrs/$15M (as reported); three straight years of fantastic swing and miss stuff (11-12 K/9 rates). Great option to add as an 8th inning guy/eventual setup role, eventually replacing what Casey Janssen never did.
Trevor Gott in trade for Yunel Escobar: it seems like an underwhelming return for Escobar on the face of it. Escobar was our 2nd leading hitter last year and played multiple infield positions. But his batting average was pretty "empty" (he slugged .415) and his defense was abhorrent (not that he ever should have been playing 3B once Anthony Rendon came back … but that's another gripe). I think what it does indicate is the rising cost of good relievers and the fact that Escobar has one year of control while Gott has just 114 days of service time and is thus controlled for at least *six* more seasons, three of which will be at the pittance MLB minimum. Gott's numbers as a 22 yr old were pretty good; 125 ERA+, an ERA right around 3.00. Not a ton of swing and miss so far in the majors but he was a closer in the minors and seems like a good 6th/7th inning guy (in other words, a Barrett replacement for the time being).
This configuration leaves a slew of projected relievers set to start in AAA or on the D/L:
D/L: Barrett (60dl), likely lost for the whole year
RH middle relievers: Martin, eDavis, de los Santos,
Loogies: Solis*, Grace*, Lee*
Long Men options: Jordan, Hill, Espino
What's left to do?
Flip Storen for value
Dump Papelbon for a couple of pizzas
Find a for-real closer; its going to cost some serious stuff, based on the Craig Kimbrel and Ken Giles trades. Be ready for it.
Sign some more veteran relievers for AAA like we always do.
Questions for the group;
Do you like the configuration of this bullpen so far? Assuming we get a for-real closer and dump Storen and Papelbon, would you say that its an improvement over last year?
Is this too many new players to gel properly? Don't we always hear about how pitchers are creatures of habit and how "Teams" take a while to gel and play well together? We're basically throwing out a bunch of guys in that pen who will have never even met, let alone build camaraderie. Do you worry about this? Or do you believe that "winning builds chemistry" and that players are just cyber machines who you charge up in the morning with Red Bull and then slot them into their roles and they magically produce? (If you couldn't read between the lines in that sentence of sarcasm to tell what I think … well I can't help you

On Escobar: it was actually two years of Escobar, since his contract has a club option of $7M for 2017 (with a $1M buyout). On the flip side, not only was Escobar a disaster defensively and his batting average was "empty;" his performance is extremely unlikely to repeat. He's 33, and just had the best year offensively that he's had since 2011. Further, his performance was built on a BABIP that was 65 points higher than his 2014 BABIP (which was, in turn, the highest he posted in the 2012-14 time frame). There's nothing in his batted ball profile to suggest that there's any fundamental change – it was just one of those years.
So yeah, it was a "sell high" on Escobar, with the unfortunate side note that other GMs can read, too, or at least have people who work for them that can. So a decent return (six years of a power arm + a discount lottery ticket) and you move on.
FWIW, I'm not entirely certain that Papelbon and Storen are going anywhere. I do think that chemistry is something that fans tend to speculate about and then overvalue the result of that speculation ("I think the team chemistry sucks, therefore DOOOOM!"). That said, I think Rizzo may well make a move at a significant discount if he sees a chemistry problem. But I doubt he makes a move as a pure dump.

I'm surprised at the level of bullpen turnover. We knew/hoped there would be some, but we've already got four new pieces, and I doubt Rizzo is done. FWIW, the four new guys collectively won't cost the $31M O'Day will get.
I'll split the difference between you two and say that I can see one staying from Pap and Storen, but not both, not after the shopping spree this week. Pap is The Closer (TM) unless and until they find another. Storen is more tradeable and more eager for a new address, and therefore more likely to leave. They're not giving Pap away.
As noted yesterday, I'm a little disappointed in the return for Escobar. I've thought all offseason that they would "sell high" on him if given the chance, but I was hoping for more. If Gott turns into Clippard or Kimbrel, I'll reconsider. We'll see. With Gott on board, there may be less thought of moving Lopez to the 'pen. But the Nats needed prospects in the field more than they needed another young RH arm.
11 Dec 15 at 12:40 pm
Escobar return: JohnC listed well the reasons why we probably should be thankful for what we got. I would have thought Escobar would have been the starting 2nd baseman for this team going into 2016; now I wonder if the team is looking for a 2nd baseman starter. I hate to say it but Daniel Murphy would fit the bill; lefty hitter, 2nd with some positional flexibility. I'm certainly not advocating losing our 18th overall pick (or wherever it stands now) to sign Murphy, just saying.
11 Dec 15 at 1:14 pm
I've been seeing buzz about Jimmy Rollins, which scares me (.285 OBP last season, OPS+ of 78). Is it too much of a stretch to roll with Espi and Turner?
Heyward to the Cubs. I'm sort of relieved that the Nats aren't ponying up that much, but the Cubs look to be building a monster.
Shoot me if the Nats buy Rollins. Heyward: to me not worth the money given his lack of power. But yeah the Cubs are ridiculous. It seems like it was just a matter of time before that beast awoke. Good luck beating them for the next 5 years. Maybe the Nats look at Alex Gordon now?
I think I am going to hold off any conclusions on the bullpen makeover until I know it's done, and I see a little more about the acquisitions. But after last year, different may be good enough for now.
As for Heyward, I don't mind losing out on him. Lot of money plus I don't want to lose the pick. I am developing an anti-Cubs feeling though. Just feels like they are the cool kids now, and I mean that in a derogatory way. Maybe I am just jealous that it seems like everyone wants to play for them.
But is still like to see the Nats get Gardner. I feel like he would be a very good fit across multiple fronts. Wonder what it would cost.
just based on published rumors and reports, I'd say the Nats were behaving very erraticly this offseason. Almost randomly, like they were panicked. I assume many of the rumors, like the Leake interest, were overblown.
I also hope the trade of Escobar indicates a higher emphasis on defensive efficiency. Rendon at 3d and Espy at SS provide high quality D, as does MAT in center. But MAT, Espy and Ramos may be too much to carry in the line up, especially if you also throw in Turner as a rookie. That's one reason why Gardner fits well.
I don't think the Nats are alone in their semi-random casting about. The same could be said for the Cards, Dodgers, Giants, and Mets, among others. They've all taken stabs in various directions and come up short. And frankly, all may be hurting more in certain areas than the Nats are after not landing their big fish. The Mets don't have enough firepower, the Cards needed Heyward, and the Cards, Giants, and Dodgers all need rotation help.
In the meantime, Rizzo has strategically and economically rebuilt the bullpen, the one area he HAD to get right. He really wanted O'Day and Zobrist but drew the line where I would have, both in years and money. Heyward was sort of a pot-shot and did drive up the price. I have no idea why we would touch Leake with a 10-foot pole; maybe Dusty wanted him.
So . . . there are still 14 shopping days left until Christmas, and the Nats have a lot of headroom in the budget.
Todd, here's your Faustian bargain: Rollins, Drew (Boras client, former D-Back), Uggla, or just rolling with Espi, Turner, and Difo? If those are the options, I like the current hand.
I'd absolutely take what we have on hand (Espi, Turner, Difo) versus Rollins, Drew and Uggla. Jimmy Rollins stopped hitting like 5 years ago. Drew is replacement level and Uggla's bat could be replicated by a 2015 draftee at this point.
Read an interesting point in Tom Verducci's winter meetings wrapup. If you look at the NL:
– NL East: Atlanta, Philadelphia clearly rebuilding, Miami not far behind. Basically a two-team division.
– NL Central: Milwaukee and now Cincinnati in sell-off, leaving Stl, Chi and Pit to compete.
– NL West: Padres drafted 4 rule-5 players and Colorado in sell-mode. That leaves LA, SF, Ariz trying.
That's 8 teams trying, 7 teams NOT trying in the NL. 8 Teams competing for 5 playoff spots.
Yeah, the NL has been weird lately, with a HUGE gap between the haves and have-nots.
If the Nats really feel like they need another LH bat, and they act like they do, trade for Vogt from the A's. Since he can actually hit, we won't even care whether he can catch throws from the OF. If they get Reddick thrown in the deal, all the better. Catcher, extra OF, and LH bat issues all solved.
I hear you on Vogt, but I still have a hunch we'll see Norris again.
And I am curious why none of you seem to share my enthusiasm for Gardner. To me, he's a lead off LHB that can play CF or LF, perfect for adding to Werth and MAT. Reasonable contract and control years. Do you see him as declining, or too cost prohibitive to get?
FYI – Zuckerman is leaving CSN and shutting down Nats Insider.
Wally, I personally haven't seen that much of Gardner as I don't see much of the AL.
Here's something I was piddling with before I saw your post. I'll include Gardner. What I've got are OPS+ for the last three years for each player, OFs who could be available. There are many other measures that could be used, but I found this one interesting:
Gardner: 110, 111, 106
Heyward: 114, 109, 116
Gordon: 103, 118, 120
Span: 94, 113, 114
Parra: 85, 96, 110
Fowler: 102, 120, 107
Reddick: 91, 116, 113
Ethier: 121, 97, 136
Ozuna: 90, 114, 90
J Upton: 124, 133, 121
Cespedes: 116, 98, 137
Puig: 159, 145, 109
Of course there are some huge disparities on defense and in other facets of the game, plus differences in age and price. But this is a good snapshot of general production at the plate. I have a sinking feeling that the Nats may end up with Parra, who frankly just isn't that good. Like Todd, I have no enthusiasm for Fowler, particularly with a QO attached. As noted several months ago, I think the Nats would have interest in Span for a couple of years, but not for the five that Boras will be trying to get for him. For reference, Michael A. posted a 72 OPS+ last season, a reminder that he may not be ready for prime time.
Zuckerman/NatsInsider.com: definitely disappointing news. You could argue that I owe my site's awareness to Zuckerman's graciousness for putting me on his blogroll; still to this day the #2 driver of traffic referrals is his site. If CSN "bought" the webpage, why wouldn't Chase hughes just continue to use it as his blogging platform? Not sure why it needs to be shutdown.
Gardner: I don't know jack about him, other than his playing in New York and all the hype going with it tending me to believe he's over-valued by default. I know he can play CF, but would he be any good there? Ethier is a sneaky good candidate; he put up good numbers by and large in NL West parks.
12 Dec 15 at 8:07 am
Yes, Ethier was one of the guys whose numbers stood out from that exercise. It surprised me, as he really hasn't been much of a HR power guy in recent years. He's still owed a fair amount of money, but only for two seasons (plus option/buyout). He's said to be available, and probably for a reasonable deal, as the Dodgers need to shed an OF/contract.
Kilgore on the coming FA apocalypse in three years:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/sports/wp/2015/12/12/the-2018-mlb-free-agent-class-is-going-to-be-bonkers/
KW – that's helpful data. It also shows that Span, if healthy, is still a pretty good option and fit. Maybe there is a way for him to return.
Ethier is hard to see happening. The money is quite high, and he doesn't handle CF nearly as well as some others. Plus with Joc struggling in 2d half and Puig kind of crazy, they may value him now.
Back to the subject of this post, Rizzo said at NatsFest, or Winterfest, or whatever they call it, that the Nats are moving on from looking at Chapman while the investigation plays out. He also said, per Chelsea Janes, that "there's plenty of other targets we have, and we're going to move on to those." Hmm, doesn't sound like he's done with the bullpen!
More OF buzz now. Heyman says the Nats offered Gio for Yelish, quickly turned down. (Sorry, but I don't want to trade Gio, with so many other uncertainties in the rotation.) Talk heating up again about the Denver duo of CarGo and Blackmon. The latter has terrible splits away from Coors, and CarGo's aren't great; his road OBP was only .294.
Rizzo said today that the Nats are still in touch with Span, still monitoring his medical situation, which sounded like they haven't ruled him out.
Hey, all!! Just checking in from the ashes of NI… Sad about that.
I like the BP moves, and am less concerned about immediate chemistry that about the pieces being used properly, which was a real issue, over the last two years. I think that, if TT shines in ST, I'd be cool with him starting in April. He seems to adjust, in a few weeks to each advancing level, has had a few ABs already, and should make the IF D second to none, as soon as he steps on the field, at 2b. As to service time, I hope they extend him, before it becomes an issue…. GYFNGOGOGO!!!
Unkyd
Yeah, I saw that Danny said at Winterfest that he's the SS and Turner will be his double-play partner. Don't know whether that's what he has been told, or what he is hoping. I'm good with Danny at SS. He might challenge for a Gold Glove with Simmons now in the AL.
Turner is obviously more valuable as a SS … if he can play there. Agree on Espinosa's SS prowness; I often thought that when it was Desmond/Espinosa they had the lesser player at short. These things happen.
I'm ok with an either or; frankly its not that much of a stretch for the two guys to swap back and forth.
Gio for Yelich: the way I read it was this: Miami called asking about Gio, Nats said "ok you want Gio we want Yelich" and they quickly hung up. Gonzalez, despite his flaws, is now a pretty darn valuable asset. A #3-#4 starter for $12M (with two more like options) is at least 25% or more off of the "retail price" for such an asset. John Lackey just got $16M a year at the age of 38 by way of comparison, and he's a righty. So frankly Gio for Yelich probably was fair and the Marlins just don't want to hear it.

Art Internships Abroad
From film production to graphic design, there are numerous opportunities abroad to begin a career in art! As an intern, you'll get a first hand look at the processes behind creative pieces, a chance to apply your knowledge, and access to a network of professionals in the industry. In addition to fueling your creative skills, interning abroad will help you learn about art from various other cultures!
Graphic design is problem solving through visual communication. Art is often associated with natural artistic ability but design is a skill that can be taught and learned! Designers most commonly use the Adobe Creative Suite. After dabbing at Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, you'll have the know how for most graphic design internships! Graphic design is becoming a universal language and can also be done remotely, which allows interns to easily work with companies across the globe. Whether you're involved in user interface, typography, or web design, you'll gain valuable experience that can be extended to other industries such as marketing or branding.
The making of film requires several stages: development, pre-production, production, post-production, and distribution. In the production stage, the film is developed and shot. Production interns get a hands-on experience of how a movie is, down to the composition, framing, and lighting of each scene. Activities may include editing, concept development, and camera equipment work. Look through an international lens and shine behind the camera with a film production internship!
An internship in performing arts will give you a glimpse of the creative process behind music, dance, or theater and a direct learning experience from industry professionals. Moreover, you'll have a chance to learn about the world through performing arts of another culture. It is one of the top cultural industries and plays a vital role in developing communities and creativity. Depending on which performing arts component interns are involved in, tasks may vary from composing music and developing acts to arranging props and coordinating rehearsals. Whether you are considering a career as a dancer, musician, director, or choreographer, an internship abroad in performing arts provides a step onto the worldwide stage for your creative passions!
Photography is a universal means of communication where you can learn about the ideas, people, and landscapes of the world. The rise of digital cameras and smartphones has made photography an increasingly competitive field. However, a photography internship is a great opportunity for interns to develop their skills and get that perfect shot to beat the competition! Interns are able to organize shoots, process and edit images, maintain studios, and help with photography production. Additionally, it's important to keep in mind that most professional photographers have areas of specialization, such as fashion, sports, or editorial photography. Before you begin your internship hunt, take a look at areas of interest since they may affect intern activities.
Preparing Your Search
Before you start looking for an internship, you may want to consider building a professional creative portfolio. Examples of your work will help you catch employers' eyes! The work included in a portfolio will depend on the type of internship you're looking for. If you're interested in film production, small film projects (personal or academic) are great examples.
The United States has always led in creative industries and it has had a tremendous influence across the world. About 3.2% of U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) is attributed to art and culture! Opportunities are robust for interns and vary by city. For film production, Los Angeles, California and Austin, Texas, home to Hollywood and SXSW, are thriving communities for moviemakers. New York City is a major center for music, film, theater, dance, and art. Many cultural movements began in NYC and it major performing arts companies, such as the Lincoln Center, are located here. Wherever you look, creative and cultural wealth is abundant in the U.S. for internships!
According to the Martin Prosperity Institute, Sweden is ranked as the most creative country in the world! The Swedish economy has been shifting towards an economy driven not only by technological products but also increasingly by creative, innovative processes and services. Design in Sweden, focused on functionality sustainability, is a rapidly growing industry. Many Swedish and Scandinavian films, books and personalities are also beginning to appear in international media. Additionally, there are dozens of Swedish film festivals including the Stockholm International Film Festival. With growing creativity and foothold in the cultural industries, Sweden is a top location for your artistic needs.
As an initiative to strengthen its culture throughout the world, Japan has recently established the "Creative Industries Internationalization Committee." Creative industries in Japan reflect its various lifestyles, cultures, fashion, and food. The country's popular culture including anime and music has increasingly gained popularity with the rise of online collaboration. With a push in culture, Japan is an ideal country for interns looking to explore new content and creativity.

Monster Stock Could Be a Scary Pick for Bulls Next Month
Toyota investing $5.6 billion to build EV batteries, despite its own doubts


America's most suburban suburb might not conjure images of a hot restaurant scene, but the tides are quickly changing.
Pasadena is America's most suburban suburb of suburbs. We don't need to verify that statement with facts, it just feels right.
And, like most suburbs, Pasadena is not traditionally known for its vibrant restaurant scene. Sure, there have always been the neighborhood go-tos and local standbys, but food that's truly worth the journey? Not so much.
Times are changing, though. The culinary action in the old 'Dena is picking up. Should you find yourself on this side of town, or should you (gasp) make your way out here intentionally, you'll find a plethora of good new options, from legit Japanese ramen to upscale California food. We've thrown some local classics on the list as well, because there's little point in having a Pasadena native (yup, me) write this otherwise. Once you or your friends start having second children, you'll find this guide real handy, real quick.
Unequivocally the best restaurant in Pasadena. The first time we ate here, it was a revelation—a restaurant that could stand up anywhere, smack dab in the heart of the tourist-trappy parts of Old Town. Get all the pastas, close your eyes, and you could easily be in Brooklyn or San Francisco.
The most fun all-around night out in town. Sure, it's "just" a steakhouse, but it's also a damned good one. The cocktails are potent, the apps and sides are exactly what you want them to be, and the steaks are cooked to temperature. The Grand Marnier soufflé is particularly magical.
Pastries and sandwiches on bread that's about two notches better than it needs to be. The egg salad is appropriately legendary - five eggs perfectly seasoned, stacked open-face on a nice chewy dough (we recommend rosemary). A filling and delicious lunch.
$$$$ 16 N Fair Oaks Ave.
The newest hot Japanese ramen import to sport a giant line. Sure, the crowd will move on to the next one in months (weeks?), but this is where it's at right now.
The rare gelateria where the flavors taste like concentrated, intensified versions of the underlying ingredients. The pistachio tastes like someone crushed the nuts and infused them into pistachio milk, and then froze the result. In other words: it's good.
Salted caramel and honey lavender at their absolute finest. Dare we say a notch above Bulgarini? We dare.
Shiny! Expensive! Adults! At present, it's operating as a steakhouse, but over the last several years The Royce has had a rotating cast of famous chefs serving Michelin-quality meals to the city's most stuffy visitors. Not really a local's spot, but good to have in your back pocket in case you're giving dinner picks to a visiting railroad baron.
There's only one reason to go: cornflake-encrusted French toast. Sure, they serve eggs and things, but trust us. Get the French toast.
Simple, good Thai-Vietnamese food. Get the steak salad and pumpkin curry.
Appropriately austere and neat, as really good sushi usually is. The omakase won't stand up to $300 versions, but if you're consuming those regularly, you're not reading this article.
The kind of ladies-who-lunch restaurant that only an old-money area like Pasadena can deliver. The salads and sandwiches are all excellent, with recipes that have been honed over decades. And it shows. The front patio is as see-and-be-seen as Pasadena gets, which may not be saying much.
Capital-C Classic. Fancy American food, in a nice space filled with a smattering of older people and families. Pasadena in a nutshell.
A reasonable Basque restaurant in Old Town. While others have had better experiences than we have, this is your go-to for tapas.
Sometimes you just want a staggering quantity of meat stuffed between two slices of the bread of your choice. Most people would call this a "deli," but in California, apparently, we call it a "sandwich company." Sounds more startup-y, no doubt sending the nearby Caltech kids into empassioned frenzies.
A good spot for sweet and savory Middle Eastern and Eastern European pastries, including made-to-order Georgian khachapuri (pictured).
Phase 1 in the plan to take over Los Angeles with cute little bags of flavored marshmallows and caramel popcorn.
From the same people as Little Flower, phase 2 in the plan. This time, with more baked goods, and actual space to eat sandwiches and drink fancy coffee.
Oh, you didn't know that one of the most ubiquitous mall food-court chains in America got started as a full-sized restaurant in Pasadena? Good news: the "Inn" edition is far superior to "Express." We recommend Moo Shu Pork, Sweet & Pungent Shrimp, Braised String Beans, and a fruity Mai Tai.
We had to throw the neighborhood shawarma and falafel shop on here, if only because we ate here twice a week all throughout high school. Get the chicken shawarma with garlic paste, and say hi to the owners for us.

Compose Travelogue: London
Compose Travelogue: London composetravelogue
Over the next couple of weeks, I'll be travelling from London around the US and Canada to meet Compose people. As Compose's content curator I want to give you better picture of the people of Compose, not at one of our un-remotings, but at their home locations where we can talk about Compose, what they do, how they do it and how the Compose philosophy feeds into their work. We're calling this series the Travelogue.
We'll also try to give an insight on what it's like to work in a remote-first organisation. Location is important for remote working and we want to look at why people work from where they do, how that creates their day and how they work with the rest of the Compose team.
London: Steve
First up and because a journey starts from home, we met up with Compose long-timer Steve, the first non-US employee of Compose and now one of rapidly growing number UK based people working at the virtual here. We met up well outside town at a small independent coffee shop where he ordered an orange juice and explained he wasn't a coffee or tea drinker.
Steve's day is "very very variable. And it varies a lot from doing product work - currently developing Compose Enterprise - to ops-y things.. I write code, working on our Chef cookbooks, internal tools and platform, monitoring systems, etc. When I'm on call, it's fixing customer issues and whatever else has broken. I help run and maintain the internal infrastructure. Anything ops-y that people need help with as well as a lot of stuff people don't see". This all happens from his home office in West Hampstead, or IBM's office on the South Bank, or the South Bank Centre's member space. Steve is no stranger to the coffee shop nomad's life and is happy anywhere there's "good Wi-fi and a good view".
Slack is his first call for keeping in touch with the other Compose people. "I hate email, even though I check it religiously" he says expressing his preference for the real-time Slack lifestyle and how it shapes his day, from scrolling back at the start of the working day "to catch up with the americans from the previous night" and then online for the rest of the day "checking more than I should be". That doesn't mean Steve stays always on though. His trick for disconnecting? "Making lots and lots of evening plans with people and I feel rude when I'm checking my phone constantly so I don't". If he isn't doing that then he's at home checking his laptop so making plans is important.
But then, in London, it's easy to make plans to go out. Steve moved to London after graduating and has been here ever since, apart from a brief stint in San Francisco. Ask him why London and he'll tell you "It's got everything: good restaurants, good bars, good architecture, lots of museums, lots of events, so many things to do and an interesting mix of people and cultures... a nice variety of different weather, cloudy, cloudy and raining". I point out he missed that days weather - cloudy, raining and humid, and we agree when the weather is good in London, it can be a glorious day.
So what does Steve call the coolest thing for him in London. It was a hard call with too many choices but he settled on "The Everyman Cinemas... I like to go to a cinema, being able to get a bottle of wine and drink it with an ice cream sundae, nice comfy leather seats...".
And if you are passing through London, Steve had two options for your next stop. The slightly further afield option was Iceland which Steve visited recently and is but a "hop, skip and a jump" from London - "If you're going on holiday, I'd definitely recommend that". London is also a gateway to Europe with the Eurostar putting the centre of Paris just two hours and fifteen minutes away from the centre of London and even though Brussels is closer, Paris wins as the next quick stop because it's a lot like London, a culturally rich city. Unless its February, when FOSDEM takes place in Brussels and is a must for open source users and developers.
And with that, we wrap up and I go to finish packing my bags. The next stop on the Compose Travelogue? Chicago to meet Tim.

Q: I want to show info window when I click on google map marker in ReactJS App? I used infoWindow but when I click on marker, no infoWindow shows. How it will be shown by clicking the marker?

A: There are a couple of things I noticed in the code you provided,

*

*You set your initialCenter to the this.props.lati and this.props.long however I noticed that you are getting the location  of the user in the componentDidMount where you set the state of lati and long. Do you have lati and long variable in your props or do you mean to use the lati and long from the state? If so,you need to use the this.state.lati or this.state.long. The value of your state is empty and it will default the initialCenter to (0,0). If you want it to center at the user location use center parameter instead of initialCenter.

*In your onClick in Marker object, you need to call the {this.onMarkerClick} function and you can remove the handleToggleOpen and handleToggleClose function. You can also remove these in your state:
   isOpen: false,
   markerMap: "",
   selectedPlace: ""

*In your label parameter in the Marker, you are passing {index} and the datatype of this is not a string. labels need strings for it to work. You can make it {index.toString()}.

*To show the InfoWindow, you don't need to append it inside the  object in your displayMarkers function. Put it after you call {this.displayMarkers()} in your Map object.
You can check this code and code snippet I made to achieve your use case. Note that I used sample props value and just use a props value for the center of the map. The rest, I derived from your code. To make the code work, you need to put your API key.

Time-honoured heritage meets irresistible modernity at Espadril. The quintessential summer shoes that have been worn by Jackie Onassis, Grace Kelly and Sophia Loren. We are seriously in love with this brand.
Just over a year ago, South African Rizqah Isaacs and Spanish Patricia Terre started making these timeless Meditteranean shoes at their studio in Bree Street in the heart of the city, giving it an African twist. "Espadril makes authentic Spanish espadrilles entirely by hand. Each pair is stitched according to centuries-old traditional methods and given 'local flavour' with interesting designs and beautiful fabrics. We like to think of ourselves as 21st century artisans," says Isaacs.
Valenciana, their most popular style, for instance, has espadrille's trademark woven rope backs and ankle laces. This summer they are adding leather laces and backs to give it not only an African element but to allow women to wear the normally carefree style away from the beach too.
This departure from the normal seaside styles echoes the latest international trends that have seen espadrilles stepping out on the 2016 resortwear runways with Stella McCartney showing embroidered denim slingbacks, Jimmy Choo choosing rich embellishments and Alexander Wang going his own way with black jute soles. Even Christian Louboutin showed espadrilles, preferring exotic toile with a jungle design for his slip-ons.
In general, we play with different uppers and have, for example, several beautiful embroidered styles as well as ones with nautical stripes and others with interesting frayed details. We both love beautiful things and draw inspiration from a very instinctive place. We are very different, though, and both of us have strong personalities – this shows in our work, says Terre.
All Espadril's materials too are a happy marriage of authentic soles and cotton uppers from Spain while the leather and other materials are produced in South Africa. The designers' personalities come through especially in the Mediterranean range that combines the typical natural colours associated with espadrilles (Isaacs' influence) with bright, hot colours (Terre's influence).
Although espadrilles have non-negotiable elements – woven jute soles, the shape of the uppers – Espadril has a wide range of options. "We pride ourselves on having created a line where a woman can come to buy a denim pair for herself and leave with a beautiful camel pair from the Mediterranean collection for her mom and an orange suede slider for her grandmother. Our shoes can really be worn by anyone under the sun," says Terre.
As people become increasingly mobile, travel and escape are on the up. Fashion is therefore focusing on resortwear, which is less about trends and more about everyday wear. We don't design for jetsetters, though, but for everyone who appreciates weekend wear and enjoys stepping out of the office into a cool, laid-back setting," the duo says.
This summer will see the introduction of new tie-dyed styles but clients who still cannot find the perfect pair are welcome to choose from the huge selection of fabrics and three sole options: a thin sole, the thicker, traditional sole and a double platform. Espadril's team will then make it by hand and have your pair ready over a period of a few days.
Prices range from R600 to R800 per pair, excluding shoes designed for collaborations such the ones created for PICHULIK's SS16 capsule clothing collection. Espadril's espadrilles are available from Superbalist from October or their Cape Town store at 100 Bree Street from September 2016.
Keep an eye out for the new designs for Espadril's SS17 collaboration with PICHULIK coming in October 2016!


When you hear me speak of influential women in my life, at the top of my list is my Mom followed by my maternal Grandmother - Popo Chock. You rarely hear me speak of my paternal Grandmother - Popo Char. Although she lived with us for a time, we were separated by language, often requiring my father to interpret for us to understand the most basic things.
As is true of so many things, some of my happiest memories are connected to food. On this Mother's Day I wanted to share a recipe that connects three generations of my family - Popo Char, my Mom, and my sister.
Like many of her generation, Popo Char cooked by feel and memory, not from a written recipe. While she lived with us my Mom spent time learning some of her recipes, diligently observing and writing down ingredients, quantities, and methods for different dishes. One thing I liked best, and we only had it once a year, was Popo Char's gao.
Also known as nian gao, this is a dessert made at Chinese New Year. Made of glutinous rice, the texture is similar to Japanese mochi although the flavor is quite different. Popo Char baked her gao but it can also be steamed for a firmer texture.
When fresh, gao is soft and sticky. My Mom would often use thread to cut the gao instead of using a knife. After several days, we would also fry pieces in butter to give it a nice crunchy outside layer, keeping the inside soft.
After Popo Char passed away, my Mom continued to make her gao. And after my Mom passed away, my sister continued the tradition. I'm very grateful for my sister, this is just one of the many traditions she carries on for our family.
When I was last home I spent time with my sister learning how to make gao. I'd seen my Mom make it many times and it always seemed a lengthy and time consuming process. My sister showed me that it really wasn't as difficult as I thought.
The ingredients, while not things I often use, are readily found at an Asian grocery store. Among them are wong tong (Chinese brown sugar) and Mochiko (glutinous rice flour). The recipe also calls for canned yams. I've always thought this was an odd ingredient and I've never used it for anything else.
The pan is also lined with both foil and leaves to protect the gao while it's baking. In Hawaii we use ti leaves (most known for making grass skirts). However, you can also use banana or lotus leaves (usually found in the frozen section of Asian grocery stores).
While I don't expect to make this often, it remains a fond memory and strong connection to my family and its traditions.
Remove the ribs of leaves for lining the pan (ti, banana, or lotus leaves). Quickly dip in hot water to soften. Prepare a large baking pan by lightly oiling it. Line with foil then a thick layer (6-7 layers) of ti, banana, or lotus leaves. Add one more layer of heavy foiled, oiled. Set pan aside.
Boil wong tong and granulated sugar in water to dissolve the sugars. (You can also substitute the sugars with 2 cups of brown sugar.) Cool.
Press the yams through a ricer.
Measure the Mochiko into a large bowl or pot. Add cooled sugar water and strained yams. Knead by hand until smooth. Batter should be the consistency of a thick pancake batter, more water may be needed to gain the desired consistency.
Pour batter into the prepared pan. Completely cover the pan with heavy foil. Bake at 350 degrees for 1½ hours. Turn down over to 300 degrees and bake for another 1½ hours.
I wish I had a picture of Popo Char to share. Instead I have this picture of me with my sister and my Mom, taken quite awhile ago. Happy Mother's Day!

Mother of Young Boy Who was Raped by Muslim "Refugee": "I Regret Welcoming Refugees"
by TheWeeklyCaller March 2, 2016 0302
In another round of people who trusted Muslim "refugees" in their country only to have crimes committed against them and learn the hard way, a mother of a 10-year-old boy who was brutally raped in a swimming pool by a Muslim "refugee" says that she regrets welcoming refugees into her country.
The attack took place in a swimming pool cubicle on December 2. The man, whose name has not been disclosed, dragged a boy into the changing room and assaulted him. After the boy told a lifeguard what had happened, the police were immediately called. They managed to apprehend the attacker in the pool, who, to their amazement, instead of fleeing the crime scene, was having fun by jumping from a three-meter board, Die Heute reported. The boy, who suffered severe internal injuries, was admitted to a children's hospital.
The mother, whose son was raped in a Vienna swimming pool, revealed to a Vienna paper that she was originally a refugee who had traveled from Serbia in the 1990s. However, following the attack on her son, she deeply regrets telling her children that they should be welcoming to migrants.
According to the mother, the boy had to be hospitalized following the rape and that "his mental scars will never heal."
She claims that the attacker's claim that he has "too much sexual energy" is nothing short of "monstrous."
However, at least something is being done to stifle further rapes at the pool. Migrants have now been banned due to complaints from those attending the pool. The left winge Green Party in Austria claims to be "horrified that Muslims were banned from the pool."
Really? Horrified? These people were not horrified that a young 10-year-old boy was brutally sodomized by one of these people, but they are horrified that Muslim migrants aren't allowed to swim in the pool? Give me a break!
While I grant that not all the migrants engage in this activity, there is something strangely disturbing that people are more concerned over the swimming status of foreigners than they are the criminal acts against this young boy. And where will justice be? Will there be a just accounting for this migrants crime? Will he receive a just punishment for what he did to this little boy?
Jesus said it would have been better for this man to have a millstone tied around his neck and cast into the sea rather than offend one of the little ones. Will we see any sort of justice like that upon this man? Don't hold your breath!
However, the banning of Muslim migrants from pools is a step. In Sweden, several women have formed a posse to keep a look out for Muslim migrants who wish to attack women and children at their pool.
Additionally, Swedish model Erin Krantz also learned the hard way when she promoted multiculturalism only to be raped and murdered at the hands of an African "refugee" immigrant.
While my heart goes out to this young boy and his mother, it's time that people become alert and vigilant and start dealing with the criminal element of these people who are coming into their country.

The ancient discipline of yoga is one of the most popular forms of exercise in the world today. HomeLoveLifestyle spoke with Sarah Habib, a certified instructor but eternally a student of yoga.
Why would you pick yoga over other forms of exercise?
I prefer yoga because it works in the discipline of the body as wells the intellect. It concerns the mind, the emotions, the will. It brings a poise to the soul and enables one to look at life in all its aspects, evenly. No other discipline is comparable.
What is the number one thing most students of yoga are looking for?
Most students are focused on the physical aspect only, that's the unfortunate part. The western world has projected this image of the discipline.
Yoga is a holistic discipline in which mind and body are viewed as a harmonious whole. Different asanas impact different parts of the body, even internal organs. Aasnas like the plank and warrior develop core strength which is very important. It improves posture, balance and flexibility, improves blood flow. It also regulates the lymphatic system and strengthens the immune system. These are just some amongst many other benefits.
What's your take on all the new forms of like Bikram, Hot & Power Yoga etc?
I think any yoga is better than none. However, I personally prefer the original, basic Hatha version. The other forms are all variations and derivations of that. They often require props and are limited to an age.
Please elaborate on the mental aspect of the discipline?
When the mind, intellect and self are under control, freed from restless desires, then only is the spirit within at rest and at peace. Yoga is the practise of control, physically, through breathing and then the mind.
Explain the importance of breathing?
Evenness of breathing leads to healthy nerves and brings evenness of mind and temper. Controlled breathing, Pranayama, helps control emotions. It oxygenates the entire body and aids in relieving physical ailments like migraines, sinus, stress etc.
Can one take it up at an advanced age?
Yes. That is the beauty of yoga. One can start beginner level at any age. That's why it is known as as a practice. One does not need to do asanas which might cause discomfort.
How is yoga beneficial for children?
Children are flexible in mind and body. Learning yoga at an early age will instill calmness, discipline and control. Today children need this more than ever to deal with the fast pace of life. It helps in concentration and focus.
How has the discipline impacted your own life?
Every human being is different. Each one takes something different but always positive from yoga. It is a ladder for those who want to scale the heights of knowledge, higher- self, mind and spirit.
It has impacted me in many ways, too many to list. And the journey is still on. It has taught me to be open-minded, open to learning and to always be aware. It has taught me to still the senses and rest the mind.

"When I was younger, actually in middle school, I had a passion to serve, to help others. Sometimes it was fixing someone's bicycle or washing a car. Whatever the situation was that someone needed help, I wanted to be the one that helped them. I think I have a servant's heart. That translates into customer service. This cafe gives me the opportunity to serve Downey, to give back to my hometown.
"I think my parents were my model for helping others. My parents helped me to become more social. To be able to talk to a stranger and make them feel like I was their friend. They helped me see school as a positive thing and to get out of my social shell. They had multiple lunch trucks and I got to see them enjoy serving others. The look on their faces when they made others happy by meeting their needs was an inspiration to me. I wanted to smile because I had met someone's need."

Braces are used to move teeth into the ideal position and align how they bite together. While some patients may have the ideal bite, they may suffer from varying degrees of crowding or spacing, another factor associated with a misaligned bite. Crowding is a condition that causes the teeth to overlap, rotate, and in some cases, grow into the incorrect position in the mouth, or in more extreme cases, cause the tooth to become trapped in the bone. Crowding may be caused because the dental arch is too small for the adult teeth, or the adult teeth are larger than normal. Crowding may also be caused by losing the primary or baby teeth early or retaining them in the mouth longer than normal. These factors may inhibit the adult tooth, forcing it to erupt or grow into an incorrect position. Crowding makes it difficult to brush and floss the teeth correctly, possibly resulting in tooth decay or gingivitis.
When performed by a trained and experienced dentist, dental implant surgery is one of the safest and most predictable procedures in dentistry. At Smile Xone we are using dental implants of Straumann, which is considered as the No. 1 Implant worldwide and it comes with a life time warranty. Now a days implant dentistry has been developed to that extent that one can get a replacement of teeth in one day.
These work in the same way as metal braces, but the brackets are made from a clear, transparent ceramic material. The braces are less visible to others, which makes them a popular choice for adults who need orthodontic treatment.
If you don't want a traditional braces which are more or less visible outside then you have the choice of Lingual Braces. Lingual braces look just like traditional metal ones, but are placed behind your teeth out of the public eye to give you a more discreet smile-correcting experience. Lingual Braces are not ideal for all the patients.
Invisalign is a type of clear aligner that you can use instead of metal or ceramic braces. This involves a range of clear plastic aligners that resemble mouth guards, which are custom-made for you. They are removable for eating and cleaning, and you change them out for a newly made aligner every two weeks. Each new aligner takes the adjustment of your teeth one step further.
The Examination As a first step in orthodontic treatment, you will be examined and your dental and medical history will be completed. Measurements of your teeth, jaws, joints, face and profile with x-rays will be evaluated, and study models will be made. After the complete examination, your dentist will explain the details of your particular bite problem, and what type of treatment is indicated to correct it.
The next phase (the active phase) is the placement of orthodontic appliances. There are two types of appliances that are used in different circumstances – removable and fixed. Removable appliances can be removed by the patient, and fixed appliances are attached to the teeth and are not removable. Generally, appliances are placed to stimulate the jawbones to grow and increase in size and width, during growth spurts. They may cover the tissue on the roof of the mouth on the upper jaw, or be attached to teeth on the lower jaw. Braces are fixed to individual teeth and connected together with wires. Braces are much smaller and more esthetic today (some are clear) than they once were. Sometimes they can even be placed on the inside surfaces of teeth so they don't even show. It is the orthodontic wire that does the actual work of moving the teeth. These wires apply constant forces over a long period of time causing the teeth to move through the bone. The newer wires being used today decrease the number of visits and the overall length of time in braces. Wires are adjusted during regular visists, so that the teeth are moved correctly and efficiently. Tenderness of the teeth during the first week in braces and following adjustment visits is normal and to be expected. This tenderness subsides after several days and can be helped by taking pain medication. A soft diet during these times may also be beneficial. Treatment time varies with the amount of correction required, but in general ranges between 12 –24 months. During treatment, routine dental care must be maintained for cleanings, check-up visits and fluoride treatments. It is more difficult to clean teeth once braces are on, so regular cleaning appointments and good oral hygiene are more important than ever, to prevent dental decay.
After treatment is completed, retainers will be used to hold the teeth in their new position. Some retainers are designed to be removable, while others are cemented in place. This retention phase is important to prevent the teeth from relapsing back to their original position. Orthodontic treatment is a long process but can improve both the functionality and appearance of your teeth.
Having straight, beautiful teeth is a gift for a lifetime.

Regulations for tax refund loans head to Senate after long House debate
By Margaret Wright | March 11, 2015

A bill uncontroversial on its face about payday loans became the focal point of yet another drawn-out skirmish in the House.
Members of the two political parties argued pros and cons of more stringent regulations for entities that offer payday and other high-interest small loans.
Rep. Jane Powdrell-Culbert, R-Corrales, presented HB 356, her proposal to update the state's Small Loan Act to include additional rules for lenders who offer increasingly common tax refund anticipation checks.
The bill ultimately passed on a 38-25 vote.
Powdrell-Culbert said she proposed the legislation after hearing concerns expressed in committee meetings about the high interest rates charged by tax refund lenders, the majority of whom provide services to low-income people.
Powdrell-Culbert's measure requires lenders to provide disclosures to consumers about the terms of tax refund loans. It also caps their interest rates at 85 percent of the estimated federal federal and state refunds and tax credits.
According to the nonprofit National Consumer Law Center, 21 million Americans got a tax refund anticipation check last year. The NCLC describes such transactions as high-cost loans on the cost for preparing tax returns, adding that some companies also charge fees that contribute to the overall cost to consumers.
A report released this month by the NCLC in collaboration with the Consumer Federation of America recommends that tax preparation fees "be subject to standardized, easy-to-use disclosure."
Rep. Debbie Armstrong, D-Albuquerque, introduced her own substitute bill that she and several other Democrats said would offer superior consumer protections by capping interest rates for high-risk small loans at 36 percent.
The 36 percent interest rate cap is a touchstone for opponents of the high-risk small loan industry, according to Andrew Morrison, executive vice president for Sun Loan/Brundage Management, when he appeared on the KUNM News Call-In Show on March 5.
Morrison told host Gwyneth Doland that "people understand that there's a problem [with predatory lending], and at the same time, people understand that 36 percent is not a workable solution."
Morrison said the 36 percent cap isn't realistic, because at that rate, "there would be no lending at all. Storefront lending is what you want to see, because the alternative … is that the loans come from a place you can't see and license."
In today's House debate, Rep. Javier Martinez, D-Albuquerque, said he'd seen firsthand how his district has been affected by what he called "a high saturation" of high-risk loan providers.
"We literally have them on every corner. That's not a good thing … It's extremely depressing in every sense of the word to have these business models encroaching," said Martinez.
Republicans voted to table Armstrong's substitute bill after criticizing the changes.
"I think you're doing more harm to those who really need this the most," said Rep. Monica Youngblood, R-Albuquerque, who said high-risk small loans are sometimes a last resort for low-income folks who "have bad credit, lack of credit or no credit at all."

Senate, House reach deal on $7 billion state budget
The New Mexico Senate and House of Representatives appeared to have an agreement on a $7 billion state budget late Friday after ironing out differences over pay for educators, funding for roads and college athletics. In the end, the biggest sticking point turned out to be a tiny but politically fraught piece of the spending plan: $700,000 for legislators to hire additional staff.

Senator wants to rein in tax hike proposals
The chairman of an influential Senate committee proposes to strip out big pieces of a sprawling tax bill, scrapping a proposed increase in New Mexico's personal income tax rates and scaling back a suggested increase in a credit for families. For backers of House Bill 6, the measure is key to making the tax system more progressive and shoring up the state's finances before the oil industry takes another dive and New Mexico's government is left strapped for cash again.

Szilágyi Etel, Etelka (Zilah, 1862 vagy 1865 – Szentendre, 1944. január 6.) színésznő.

Életútja

Szilágyi B. János és Kiss Eszter leánya. Színipályára lépett 1885 tavaszán Homokay Lászlónál, mint énekesnő, majd ez év telén Hevesy Józsefnél szerepelt. A vidék kisebb-nagyobb színpadjain működött ezután mint operett- és népszínműénekesnő, majd később áttért a komikai szakmakörre és itt is épp oly kiválóan szerepelt, mint az korábbi években, az ének és tánc terén. 30 évig volt a vidék elismert művésznője és mint ilyen ment 1912-ben nyugdíjba. Nagy repertoárja volt.  Férje Szathmáry Lajos volt, akivel 1892. március 22-én Trencsénben kötött házasságot, második férje Csabay Zsigmond volt. Halálát méhrák okozta 81 éves korában.
