I spotted several old Pullman railway coaches in a state of ruin during a trip to Cornwall in 2003.
Once the byword for upmarket, luxury train travel, several of these once glorious carriages had been dumped at Marazion station in the 1960s and put to use as camping coaches.
Years of criminal neglect had seen the fine varnished wood and exquisite paintwork of the carriages being stripped away in the sea air, leaving them in a terrible state.
The coaches were on a strip of track next to the abandoned station at Marazion, which closed to passengers on 5th Oct 1964. It's now been converted to private housing.
'Juno', a 1923 brake parlour car looks forlorn, while just beyond it can be seen the shell of the burned out 1923 coach, 'Aurora'.
The sad remains of 'Calais', once a luxury 12 wheel parlour car, built in 1921.
On a happier note, two of the coaches at Marazion were rescued in the late 1990s and have subsequently been fully restored to their former glory at Petworth railway station, where they now serve as luxury hotel rooms – we stayed there for a weekend a few years back.
I have many childhood memories of staying in those camping coaches at Marazion during the late 70/80's. My dad worked on the railway so we used to stay in them. Brilliant times and such a great setting. My love for Cornwall has never ceased.. So sad to see them go. My grandad used to be a train driver and would change his shift in order to be able to do the Penzance run, he used to slow the train down as he got to marazion and throw sweets at us, wrapped in a oily rag. I remember mars bars tasting of diesel!
they contain high levels of blue asbestos.
Are these carriages still there? I am looking for a Pullman carriage and gally car for restoration.
Just read about these in Roger Deakin's excellent book "Waterlog" where he too laments the neglectful demise of these beautifully made carriages. Here in Australia many such carriages are restored and offered as accommodation, often in wine regions and the make for marvellous novelty holidays, especially for the kids – perhaps more nostalgic for us older folk!

Those who look outside of the window sees the perfection of a house. Built on the sturdiest foundation of all even though it was built in 1942 on a rainy day, still sturdy.
From the outside, you would see a house where the bricks are perfectly sticking together as though the bonds between them would never break… See, you would see a perfect building with the perfect people living within these walls. You would see the god willing family that has been built on this foundation, where the the bonding of the bricks will never break.
You would see the man, the protector, the keeper of the house who holds the world on his shoulders, where every breath somehow releases the stress where the sweat falls down from his forehead to his temples and unto his eyes that somehow gives him the satisfaction of a job well done. See, you would see a man that follows God's word, he teaches his struggles to those in the pews and to the family who sees the struggles as though they were seeing through his very own eyes. See, what you do not know is that within this sturdy foundation, is a man fighting to survive by giving his own child the life that she never had so that she somehow could go further than the stars in life and might get a glimpse of what Heaven really is like, without actually being there. See, within these four walls was a man who wanted to perm his hair to get the curls of Michael Jackson and ended up with a bald spot, who had once had a gun to his head for beeping a horn, a man who once inhaled smoke, who later in life made the decision to put that cigarette down in order to protect the fresh air surrounding his daughter so that she would able to breathe in comfort and safety and to give her a chance to become somebody special, see this child with a chance also seen those looks into the window and saw a life that was as strong as her on house, but really she had the imperfect perks as well.
A child whom the doctors said was a miracle baby that was not supposed to be born, was formed into her mother's belly just from a little touch by God. The child that somehow went to having a low cum to getting on honor roll. See, they see a child who has a purpose in life, that shooted for the stars and just had a slight touch of heaven but was never actually there. A child who got into 19 colleges despite her struggles freshman year, see they see this child who isis as sturdy as the bricks that surround her each and every day. See, maybe people need to look in these mirrors a little bit more clearly. See, it's a girl who smiles in the hall each day but is still stuck on the death of her mentor where the only memories she has is one old picture and the dried up tears that remains on her face as she tries to wipe away any thought that was not a positive vibe. It's a child that feels as though her whole house has fallen down where she is still picking up the pieces from the last relationship that she was in, trying to figure out was it just something that wasn't meant to be or was it her who made him leave. See, this child was strong but somehow there were still bricks that needed to be built in order for this house to be complete.
what always goes on top of the house is the roof, thethings that puts the house all together and keeps this foundation together, my mother.
The one who tries to seize all adversary in the house. The one who makes sure that everyone keeps this house clean where she makes sure we pick up the conflicts, struggles, and stress that may lay on the floor that we walk on every single day that we try to avoid so that we never have to pick it up again. She stresses us not to walk around the mess but try to pick it up so that it will be there no longer. See, my mom is the one who comforted me during the hard times even though
She wasn't comforted either. See she kept our house together. Where the family could never break apart.
See, without these two people being the foundation and the roof, there would be no me . I would never know what it feels like to be the foundation for others in need or the roof that covers somebody's conflicts . See, without these bricks being somehow shakey in my household there would be a house that was later built to stand strong where the bricks were built again to be stronger . Or there would be no extension to the house that would make the house even larger. See, there is no redemption without a fall.

Pleurisy means inflammation of the pleura, the membrane that lines the lungs within the chest cavity. Depending on its cause, pleurisy can be associated with an accumulation of fluid in the space between the lungs and chest wall (called a pleural effusion) or it can be dry pleurisy, which has no fluid accumulation.
Lung infection — In industrialized nations, bacterial pneumonia (lung infection) resulting from staphylococci, pneumococci, Haemophilus influenzae or other organisms is a frequent cause of pleurisy. In developing nations where tuberculosis is common, pulmonary tuberculosis is another important cause. When pleurisy is caused by a bacterial lung infection, it can be associated with a pus-filled pleural effusion (called an empyema). Viral lung infections, especially epidemic pleurodynia (an infection usually caused by coxsackieviruses or echoviruses), also can cause pleurisy.
Rare causes — Radiation therapy (for cancer), a collapsed lung (pneumothorax) and pericarditis (as with severe kidney failure or following a heart attack) all can be accompanied by pleurisy.

Why the 'Greater'?
James is styled "the Greater" to distinguish him from the Apostle James "the Less", who was probably shorter of stature. He was the son of Zebedee and Salome. He was the brother of John, the beloved disciple, and probably the elder of the two. We know nothing of St. James's early life.
His Call
The call of St. James to the discipleship of the Messiah is reported in a parallel narration by Matthew, Mark, and Luke. The two sons of Zebedee, as well as Simon (Peter) and his brother Andrew with whom they were in partnership were called by the Lord upon the Sea of Galilee, where all four with Zebedee and his hired servants were engaged in their ordinary occupation of fishing. The sons of Zebedee "forthwith left their nets and father, and followed him" and became "fishers of men". Peter and Andrew, James and John form the first group, a prominent and chosen group especially Peter, James, and John. These three Apostles alone were admitted to be present at the miracle of the raising of Jairus's daughter, at the Transfiguration, and the Agony in Gethsemani. The fact that the name of James occurs always before that of his brother seems to imply that James was the elder of the two.
Several incidents scattered through the Synoptics suggest that James and John had that particular character indicated by the name "Boanerges," sons of thunder, given to them by the Lord; they were burning and impetuous in their evangelical zeal and severe in temper. The two brothers showed their fiery temperament against "a certain man casting out devils" in the name of the Christ. When the Samaritans refused to receive Christ, James and John said: "Lord, do you wish that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them?"


Home » Shark UV440 vs NV350 : Which Is The Winner?
Vacuum cleaners have become common items in many houses. Thanks to their convenience, advanced features and user-friendly manners, people want to own one in order to assist their daily household chores. I am always amazed at how many and diversity of vacuum cleaners are. There are a lot of brands too. Yet, just a few of them can be counted on. Dyson is undeniably well-known, but do you know that in some parts of the world, Shark outsells and is more famous as compared to Dyson models?
In the vacuum market, we can say Shark play an unreplaceable role. With the diversity and quality, Shark products are matching rivals of high-end models at more reasonable prices. It offers a variety of great lines, including Shark Navigator, Shark Rotator, Shark Ion and Shark Rocket, etc. Each has its own strengths and in each vacuum line, there will be more popular units. All Shark vacuums pack a real bite when it comes to pure cleaning power which means that the top picks are usually difficult to narrow down. Shark UV440 vs NV305 come with thousands of positive feedbacks on the Internet for amazing performance and affordable price. If you are interested in the NV305, here is another comparison article: Shark UV440 vs NV350.
Shark Navigator UV440 Lift-away Deluxe Bagless Upright vacuum UV440 and Shark Navigator Lift-away NV350 belong to the same vacuum line, so you can expect lots of similarities between them. However, there are a few different points which make each machine stand-out on its own. Remember, they may not be perfect but with that price, Shark UV440 vs NV350 show very satisfying results for middle-priced products. If you are in tight budget, they may be good solutions.
Shark UV440 vs NV350 share lots of things in common in terms of appearance design. They are both upright vacuum so they come with the traditional design. In addition, they almost share the same height. However, good thing to know is they are available in different shades. While the NV350 has lavender color, the UV440 comes with bright black with silver. They are bagless vacuums and equipped with lift-away function that allows users to clean difficult places, such as ceiling, curtain or stairs.
Shark products have great maneuverability as they are equipped with Swivel Steering technology. This feature always appears in my articles about Shark vacuum. It helps to guide the machines smoothly around obstacles, such as table legs or sofas. In addition, Shark UV440 and NV350 are really lightweight when compare them to other upright vacuums. The UV440 weighs about 14 lbs while the other is a bit lighter, 12.5 lbs. Hence, dragging them around will not be a problem, especially the elderly. Besides, their dimensions are almost the same. Yet, there is a bit difference in the length of the power cord which will add more space to clean. The UV440 has a longer cord. The NV350 is equipped with 30ft cord, while that of the UV440 is 5-ft longer. Another advantage of the UV440 is an extra extension wand.
What matters now is how well they perform and whether Shark UV440 vs NV350 worth your money. They don't belong to high-end class, so you must understand that they are not perfect. Indeed, each has its own strengths and weaknesses. It's always a wise choice to select a satisfying with reasonable prices.
The Never Loses Suction technology is a famous point in Shark's marketing strategy. Every Shark vacuum is equipped with this feature and in fact, many customers choose Shark over other famous brands due to this technology. It means you don't have to worry about the loss of air flow during cleaning job. Shark UV440 and NV350 are able to provide consistent suction power from the beginning to the end.
The UV440 comes with a 35 ft power cord. Meanwhile, the NV350 is designed with a cord length of 30 foot. From many experiments, a 30+ foot cord is the best as it is long for you to reach larger space.
Shark NV350: pet hair turbo brush, 24" crevice tool, on-board crevice tool, on-board dusting brush and accessory bag.
Both Shark UV440 vs NV350 cost at pretty affordable prices. There is a small difference between these two. In general, they are about $150, which may be perfect for people who have low- or middle-income.
Shark NV350 is one of the most popular one in the Navigator line. It showed fantastic performance on removing dust, dirt and allergens. Also, most customers were satisfied with bagless design and pointed out that the dirt canister was quite easy to empty. Perhaps, the most frequent complaint was about its narrow nozzle width.
To sum up, there is slight differences between Shark UV440 vs NV350. Their performance are equally good but just a few different accessories, you can perform various tasks. The prices are similar too. It is true that they do have flaws, yet if you don't mind them, then either is good.

Investment firm with Tampa office stands up $150M tech fund
TAMPA — Anzu Partners, a national venture capital and private equity firm with a significant office in the Westchase area, is launching what is expected to be a $150 million technology investment fund.
The Anzu Industrial Capital Partners II L.P. and AICP II Limited fund will, like the firm's first $128 million fund, invest in U.S. and Canadian companies pursuing breakthroughs in manufacturing, materials, modeling and measurement. The firm's previous investments are spread out across North America, but do include one Florida-related firm, Banyan Biomarkers, which built on technology developed at the University of Florida to develop a blood test to help diagnose traumatic brain injuries.
Anzu expects to launch the fund in the middle of the year and already has identified some prospective companies to invest in, managing partner Whitney Haring-Smith said.
The firm has offices in Boston, San Diego, Washington D.C. and on Race Track Road north of Tampa Bay Downs, where it has nine of its 25 staff members. Those include its chief financial officer and two of its three managing partners, Haring-Smith and David Seldin,the former president of the Jacksonville Jaguars NFL football team and a member of the board of trustees at the Lowry Park Zoological Society of Tampa, which oversees ZooTampa at Lowry Park.
"Tampa is a great base of talent," said Haring-Smith, who said the firm is looking to add someone in finance to its local office.

DALLAS, Feb. 05, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via OTC PR WIRE – Alternet Systems, Inc. (USOTC: ALYI) ("ALYI") today announced plans to pursue research investment for its hemp energy storage initiative to pursue the electric vehicle battery market anticipated to reach $93 billion by 2026. ALYI management has seen interest for such investment in the market place in reaction to ALYI's hemp energy storage initiative and the recent passage of the 2018 Farm Act legalizing hemp farming in the United States.
In October last year, Alternet initiated a project to explore and develop hemp-based technologies for energy storage. The company engaged Clarkson University Professor David Mitlin to lead the initiative. Professor Mitlin is a leading expert in electrochemistry and a pioneer in the use of hemp as a clean, green, renewable energy in the form of a supercapacitor. Mitlin has successfully used hemp bast - the fiber left over from processing hemp - to construct carbon nanosheets that compete with, and in some respects, outperform the supercapacitor performance derived from more typical graphene nanosheets.
ALYI has engaged Nouveau, Inc. (USOTC: NOUV) to source hemp fiber for its supercapictor developments. NOUV has recently announced a 100 acre hemp cultivation operation.
Alternet Systems, Inc.: Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTC - ALYI) is focused on offering varied, environmentally sustainable, energy storage solutions for targeted markets, including consumer electric vehicles and military applications. The first product category is lithium battery-powered motorcycles, to be followed by motorbikes. These products are released through its newly launched ReVolt Electric Motorbikes subsidiary.

Robert Norman Clayton  (March 20, 1930 – December 30, 2017) was a Canadian-American chemist and academic. He was the Enrico Fermi Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus of Chemistry at the University of Chicago. Clayton studied cosmochemistry and held a joint appointment in the university's geophysical sciences department. He was a member of the National Academy of Sciences and was named a fellow of several academic societies, including the Royal Society.

Biography
Born in Hamilton, Ontario, Clayton grew up in a working-class family that supported (but could not pay for) his pursuit of higher education. None of Clayton's close family members had ever attended college. His high school teachers encouraged him to apply to Queen's University, and he received enough scholarship funding to attend the school. Clayton said that around half of his classmates were a decade older and had served in World War II. He said that this created a serious academic environment.

After graduating from Queen's University with undergraduate and master's degrees, Clayton completed a Ph.D. in 1955 at the California Institute of Technology, where he was mentored by geochemist Samuel Epstein.  His first academic appointment was at Penn State University. In 1958, he joined the chemistry faculty at the University of Chicago, where he took over the laboratory of Nobel Prize winner Harold Urey. From 1961 to his retirement in 2001, he held joint appointments in the chemistry and geophysical sciences departments. He directed the Enrico Fermi Institute at the university from 1998 to 2001.

Research
Clayton worked in the field of cosmochemistry and is best known for the use of the stable isotopes of oxygen to classify meteorites. He was aided in his research by Toshiko Mayeda, who was a specialist technician familiar with the mass spectrometry equipment required. Their first joint research paper described the use of bromine pentafluoride to extract oxygen from rocks and minerals. They developed several tests that were used across the field of meteorite and lunar sample analysis.

Clayton and Mayeda studied variations in the ratio of oxygen-17 and oxygen-18 to the most abundant isotope oxygen-16, building on their surprising finding that this ratio for oxygen-17 in particular was different from that found in terrestrial rock samples. They deduced that this difference was caused by the formation temperature of the meteorite and could thus be used as an "oxygen thermometer". They also worked on the mass spectroscopy and chemistry of the Allende meteorite and studied the Bocaiuva meteorite, finding that the Eagle Station meteorite was formed due to impact heating.
They also analysed approximately 300 lunar samples that had been collected during NASAs Apollo Program. In 1992, a new type of meteorite, the Brachinite, was identified. Clayton and Mayeda studied the Achondrite meteorites and showed that variations in the oxygen isotope ratios within a planet are due to inhomogeneities in the solar nebula. They analysed Shergotty meteorites, proposing that there could have been a water-rich atmosphere in the past on Mars.

Honours and awards
In 1981, he received the V. M. Goldschmidt Award from the Geochemical Society. The next year, the Meteoritical Society awarded him its Leonard Medal.  Clayton won the Elliott Cresson Medal from the Franklin Institute in 1985. He was the 1987 recipient of the William Bowie Medal from the American Geophysical Union. Clayton became a member of the National Academy of Sciences in 1996 and won the academy's J. Lawrence Smith Medal in 2009. Clayton has been named a fellow of the Royal Society of London (1981) and the Royal Society of Canada. He won the National Medal of Science in 2004. In 2008, the book Oxygen in the Solar System was dedicated to Clayton.

On December 30, 2017, Clayton died his sleep at his home in Indiana from complications of Parkinson's disease.

Today, many Africans are still living with memories of the pains and brutalities meted out to their ancestors by European and American slave traders.
The slave masters didn't just brutalize adults; black children were also treated with cruelty.
Bahamianology writes that "African children bound for slavery in the colonies of the West Indies, Bahamas, Cuba, Jamaica, Haiti, and South America as well as the colonial states of America, were treated with a cruelty which almost defies the human imagination."

From slave in Michigan to first black female landowner in the 1820s, the story of Elizabeth Forth
Accounts state that to make the young ones obedient slaves, slave masters employed different inhuman tactics, including flogging to instil fear in them.
The thought of babies and young ones experiencing outright barbarity, being beaten to a pulp, snatched from the arms of their mothers and sold to strangers is nothing any mother would wish for her enemy, let alone herself.
What was more disheartening was the fact that many of these little black boys and girls were kept in cages in breeding farms as though they were animals, and this sometimes led to their deaths.
Documented pieces of evidence of the brutality faced by enslaved children abound but the story of a 10-month-old baby who was thrown into boiling water and flogged to death by a slave-ship captain portrays wickedness at its peak.
While black slaves were being transported from Africa, the 10-month-old baby was sulking and refusing to eat. This troubled the captain of the ship as the baby was definitely part of the money he would make from the trade.
An account by The Liberator, cited by bahamianology.com writes that the captain subsequently took the baby from the mother and tried to force the baby to eat.
He hit the baby who would still not eat and reportedly said: 'I'll make you eat or I'll kill you."
The baby developed a swollen leg resulting from the manhandling from the captain.
The account of the 10-month-old baby dropped into boiling water by a slave-ship captain in 1832. (The Liberator, Saturday 28 January 1832) | Source – Bahamianology
To douse the swollen legs of the child, the captain asked his men to boil water and then the unimaginable happened; the captain ordered that the baby's feet and nails be dipped in the hot water. Right after, the nails and skin of the baby's feet came off.
Having no sympathy for the child, the captain used an oiled cloth to wrap the feet of the child and then tied the child to a heavy log of wood for three days.
The captain wasn't done with the little child yet; he caught the child up and said: "I'll make you eat, or I'll be the death of you." He went on to flog the child until the child died.
After the infant was lifeless, disregarding the talks from his countrymen who were spectators of this devastating event, the captain called the mother of the baby and beat her while ordering her to pick up the child and throw it into the ocean.
The Liberator writes that the mother "then dropped it [the baby] into the sea, turning her head away the other way that she might not see it."

What is ayurveda?
Ayurveda, which means "life wisdom" in Sanskrit, is one of the oldest medical systems still in use. Developed in India thousands of years ago and promoted in the U.S. today by alternative-medicine guru Deepak Chopra, it is based (in the simplest terms) on the idea that each person's metabolism and personality are influenced by three main doshas, or forces. These are pitta, which regulates digestion; kapha, which controls bodily fluids; and vata, which governs the nervous system. Chronic stress, a poor diet, or lack of sleep, proponents believe, can disturb the balance among doshas and make you sick. Ayurvedic practitioners claim that you can restore your "doshic balance" and treat illness by cleansing your body of toxins, modifying your diet, taking certain herbal medicines, and practicing yoga and meditation. Which therapies will work best for you depends on your constitution, as well as your medical history and current complaints.
What does treatment involve?
On the first visit, you'll fill out a health-history form and a questionnaire to help your practitioner determine your primary dosha. He or she may then listen to your voice, note the color of your tongue and nails, take your pulse three times on each wrist (one for each dosha), and perhaps check your eyes, ears, nostrils, mouth, and genitals for unusual secretions. These observations provide information about how an imbalance among your doshas might be affecting your organs and emotions. At the end of the session, your practitioner may recommend that you avoid or favor particular foods, change your sleeping and eating patterns, take certain herbal remedies, or do various yoga, breathing, or meditation exercises. This initial 45- to 90-minute consultation ranges in price from $65 to $300 and is usually followed by one or two brief checkups within a month to six weeks.
What's the theory behind ayurveda?
The theory is that certain foods, herbs, habits, and exercises stimulate or depress your doshas, and the right combination of therapies can bring them back into balance. For example, constipation or PMS may result from an excess of vata, which you can ease by eating warm, salty, creamy foods. If you're overweight or feeling sluggish, you may be told to eat your main meal at noon in order to reduce your kapha. For gallstones, an ayurvedic practitioner may suggest a program of massage, herbs, and aromatherapy to pacify an overactive pitta.
No conclusive research has documented the ability of ayurvedic medicine to cure disease, but meditation has been shown to reduce anxiety by slowing the heart rate and relaxing the mind. What's more, initial studies have shown that Mucuna seed powder -- a traditional ayurvedic medicine -- can help in treating the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Other researchers are looking at the use of yoga techniques in treating heroin addiction and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
The milder components of ayurveda -- a healthy diet, yoga, meditation -- are safe for most people, but you shouldn't rely on them alone if you suspect you have a serious illness. If you have back, knee, or other physical problems, get the go-ahead from your doctor before trying yoga, since some poses can aggravate injuries. You may also want to check with your doctor before using any herbs, especially if you're already taking prescription medications.
Be wary of herbal supplements. A study published in the December 15, 2004, issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association found that some herbal preparations contained harmful amounts of lead, mercury, and/or arsenic. Researchers tested a sampling of 70 different ayurvedic supplements manufactured in South Asia and sold in Boston-area stores, and found that 20 of them contained lead, mercury and/or arsenic at levels that could be harmful. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 12 cases of lead poisoning between 2000 and 2003 were linked to ayurvedic medicines.
There is no evidence that purging techniques, including sweat baths, bloodletting with leeches, self-induced vomiting, nasal washes, laxatives, and enemas, will cleanse you of any toxins -- and they may be harmful. Avoid these therapies if you're pregnant, nursing, elderly, or suffering from heart disease; if you are in normal health and wish to try ayurveda, consult your doctor.
How do I find a qualified practitioner?
There are only a handful of training programs in the United States, and referrals often happen by word of mouth. A good place to start is your local yoga studio, health-food store, or nutrition center. Some physicians, chiropractors, and nutritionists are trained in ayurvedic medicine. Look for a practitioner who has at least three years of experience, doesn't insist on invasive purging techniques, and would send you to an M.D. or osteopathic physician in the case of serious illness. The California College of Ayurveda in Grass Valley maintains a list of practitioners who have graduated from their state-approved program on their website at www.ayurvedacollege.com/practitioners.htm. Or, call them at (866) 541-6699 for a referral to a practitioner in your area.

We started our last day in Dublin with breakfast at Bewley's, a charming café in Grafton Street established in 1840. Even though it's been restored recently, it's maintained the traditional atmosphere and classic vibe, not least thanks to its famous stained-glass windows. While I chose a Danish pastry to go with my cappuccino, Marianna went for a traditional Bewley's breakfast with eggs, sausage and black and white pudding.
We also spent some time browsing the shops in Grafton Street. Of course, we checked out H&M and Urban Decay, but I'm not ashamed to admit that the one shop we enjoyed the most was the three-storey-high Disney store. Let's just say my parents are very lucky I didn't know places like this existed when I was little – they'd be in debt up to their eyeballs!
Another amazing place to shop is George's Street Arcade. This Victorian building gives the impression of a vintage market with its many tiny shops and stands. Our favourite was the antiquarian bookshop Stokes Books, specialized in Irish history and literature. Marianna bought James Joyce's Ulysses for just 10 euros – an absolute bargain.
We didn't have much time to spare though as we had tickets for a tour of Guinness Storehouse, something we definitely didn't want to miss. Even though neither of us is a big fan of beer, we knew that this experience was a must for everyone visiting Dublin and we weren't disappointed. The tour starts on the ground floor, where you can learn a bit about the brand's history. Fun fact: Arthur Guinness actually signed a 9000-year lease for the brewery (the year was 1759)… If you don't believe me, see for yourself - the document is on display right there, under a glass panel on the floor of what's now a museum dedicated to the world-famous beer.
During our tour, we found out more about the ingredients and the brewing process that make Guinness so special. We were invited to a beer tasting class, where we first smelled each of the main ingredients separately and then received a small glass of the dark goodness. We were taught to take in the unique, sweet smell of the beer and then take a small sip, tasting sweetness in the front and bitterness in the back of our tongues. Finally, we were pronounced expert beer connoisseurs.
The exhibition took us further behind the scenes of Guinness and let me tell you, it's not just the production that matters. For example, we saw how wooden barrels are made, filled with beer and shipped all over the world. However, the part I found most interesting was advertising. Did you know that early Guinness adverts listed the supposed health benefits of beer? The brand also often featured animals in their ads, such as a sea lion, a fish riding a bike (in order to target women, the brand alluded to the famous feminist saying: "a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle") and even…wait for it… a whistling oyster. Oysters used to be cheap in Ireland and people thought they go great with beer, and this is why you can now see - and hear - a giant oyster that actually whistles at the Guinness Storehouse.
Having taken an obligatory photo in front of the famous logo, we crossed a few streets and a bridge to Phoenix Park, one of the largest city parks in the world. The weather wasn't great, but at least it wasn't raining so we walked around a little and savoured our last hours in Dublin. After a delicious dinner at a Thai restaurant, we packed our suitcases and got ready for an early flight the following morning.
Leaving Dublin after only three days wasn't easy, as there's so much more to explore. We both agreed to visit the city again sometime in the summer, so we can spend a day at the beach just outside the city and see the beautiful Irish nature.
Have you ever been to Ireland? Which places would you recommend?

Q: Centering ngx pagination element in angular I am using ngx pagination from ngx pagination to implement pagination on my table in angular, I am trying to center the ngx pagination element or make it float right but for some reason, it's not responding I looked into similar questions here and tried those methods but it did not work.
Here is the code I used :
Markup

            <pagination-controls
              id="data source 2"
              directionLinks="false"
              (pageChange)="p = $event"
            ></pagination-controls>

CSS
.pagination {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
}

A: try using text-align: center ↓

   <pagination-controls
      id="data source 2"
      directionLinks="false"
      (pageChange)="p = $event"
    ></pagination-controls>

BMW M2 "Race" Introduced
BMW, along with many other car manufacturers (Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Ford, GM, Nissan) is continuing to invest /develop in its customer racing program, and another new race car is on the way. Since the M235i Racing (M235iR) became available back in 2017, the popularity for BMW's entry-level race car has soared, and racing grids across the U.S. and Europe have become home to stronger BMW representation ever since. Following up on the success of the M235i Racing, BMW released the M240i Racing (M240iR) last year, and the updated B58-powered model has since become quite popular, and proven itself a worthy competitor on the circuit and in many series as well. This is not to take away from club racers that have developed the E36 M3, the E46 M3, even the E92 M3, but there is a significant step forward with a factory race car.
BMW Motorsport offers more potent race cars, like the M4 GT4, M6 GT3, and the M8 GTLM, all of which also enjoy a strong presence in their respective classes. But the high cost to run, service, maintain, and other barriers to entry to such a high level of competition still mean the market for such vehicles is rather limited. With the previous 2 Series M Performance Racing models, BMW has provided an avenue into motorsport that is attracting more individuals to the sport, and an excellent stepping stone for those looking to move beyond spec and club racing (and vice versa, the prior 2 series models are now making their way into Club Racing and DE events). It had been reported BMW was going to announce development of a M2 Competition-based vehicle that is built specifically for the customer racing program last month. In the time since, BMW has released camouflaged press photos of the car, and this past month, brought it out to the VLN Endurance Championship at the Nürburgring, where it completed 28 laps for the sole purpose of gathering real-world data in a real-world race environment. What could be referred to as the M2 Racing has also already completed testing procedures at other tracks, like Portimão and BMW's own facility in Miramas, France. After running at the Nürburgring, BMW Motorsport Junior drivers reported positive results and a great experience, adding that driving the new car was a lot of fun—as we might expect.
The M2 Racing brings a number of improvements to the table over its 2 series predecessors. While the M235i racing used the respected N55 engine, and the M240i the slightly more robust B58, the M2 Competition, the model upon which the M2 customer race car will be based, uses a true BMW Motorsport engine, the S55. Couple this with improved suspension and running gear from the M3 and M4, which was also present on the original M2, and the M2 Racing starts to take shape as a serious upgrade. Technical details aside though, BMW also has a few years of providing a form of factory support to customer racing in the form of the M235i and M240i Racing models under its belt now, and the lessons learned here are undoubtedly being directly applied to M2 Racing development (parts, support, software development, ABS settings, traction control settings, tire wear, etc).
The first deliveries of the new M2 Competition-based customer race car are scheduled to begin during the second quarter of next year (2020). It will be offered in two versions; a conventional Racing trim, and a better-equipped Clubsport setup.

'It's Not About the Film': A Review of 'The Hateful Eight'
August 10, 2021August 10, 2021| adminadmin| 0 Comment | 9:55 pm
The Hateful 8, starring Keanu Reeves, is an epic tale of two families.
It has taken the industry by storm since it hit theaters last year, but for many, it's been overshadowed by the success of the Oscar-winning film.
But what's going on with the new version of the film?
We asked the filmmakers behind the movie to share their thoughts.
Here's what we learned:What are the biggest differences between the Hateful and the original?
The Haughty 8 takes place in 2023, and the film opens with the death of a young man.
Keanu has a baby with his wife, and they move into a new apartment.
The family is still living in a shack, and their only possessions are a bed, a blanket, and a TV.
They also have no money.
As the film progresses, Keanu begins to wonder what his life is like after leaving the shack.
Keaua's new mother is there to be with him, but he has a tough time understanding why.
What will he do now?
How does this new version differ from the original film?
The filmmakers are still exploring the origin of the character and how the original characters journeyed.
In the new film, Keauan is also the primary protagonist, and he travels through a different part of town.
He meets his new mother, played by Kate Beckinsale, and learns the truth about his past.
We're also introduced to some other characters in the film, including a young, new teacher, and his daughter, who is a former prostitute who works in the motel.
Keua's son, Luke, is introduced, and as the film goes on, he becomes a father figure to Keanu.
What are Keanu's favorite things about the original version of The Haughty?
One of Keanu and Kate's favorite memories from the film is when the filmmakers filmed a scene in the cabin, in which Keanu learns of his father's death.
He then goes to the cemetery to see his father.
This scene, which has become a part of the story, has a very poignant emotional impact.
What's going to happen to the old man's family after Keanu moves into the new home?
We don't want to reveal too much about what's happening in the story.
We do know that his son will have a role in the new movie, and there are other characters who will be introduced in the sequel.
What are some of the biggest changes that the filmmakers are considering for the sequel?
We're going to try to bring more to the story of the original.
We'll try to give more details about the characters in a more emotional way.
What would you like to see happen to Keau?
I would like to know what happens to him in the next movie.
I would also like to get a little bit of a deeper insight into the character.
What kind of character is Keau, and what kind of story does he have?
We want to keep the focus on Keanu, and we hope to tell a bigger story about the family and the world that he has left behind.
What is the best thing about the sequel that the original wasn't able to?
The original was a really hard film to do, but the sequel was a lot easier.
Kean has an incredible amount of depth, and I think we're going back to the beginning of his life.
We want to tell more about the old life, the family, and to bring back the memories of the time that he was a teenager.
We don't think that the audience is going to be disappointed in that aspect of the movie.
Is the sequel going to focus on the characters' pasts?
We would love to do it.
I don't see how it's going too far off the rails, but I do think that we could go a lot further.
I think the people of the world would be excited to hear more about Keanu in the future.
What other elements will be included in the movie?
We've got some great characters in there, but it's also about how the story goes forward.
The audience would be able to go in and see what's left of the characters, and hopefully find out what happened to them.
What can fans expect to see in the sequels?
We are still in the very early stages of development on this movie, but we hope that the fans will enjoy a sequel.
It's just a matter of when we can make it happen.
How do you feel about the way audiences have responded to the original versions of The and The Haunt?
The film is being released on Blu-ray and DVD.
It is being viewed as a classic in some circles.
People are excited to see a sequel to that classic film.
I hope that it will be enjoyed by everyone.
The film was such a huge success, and that's what the movie deserves.
What do you think is the most important

Job references. Do you assume your past employers will just verify employment and shut up? Don't assume.
Are you hiring people? Check references. Don't assume that just because a candidate gave you the name, the references will be good. Do your homework.
Apparently people do give a lot more information than company policy says they should. Quite often.
Moral of this story: if you're hiring, check references.

STEM Publishing: J. G. Bellett: Thoughts on 2 Corinthians.
This is a distinct character of fear. It is not an apprehension of religiousness, or infidelity, or licentiousness corrupting the churches; it is formally distinct from each of these. The Grecian style may have exposed the Corinthians specially to a simple worldly attraction, to the pretensions of a man of refinement and station and independence, — who had much in the flesh; that is, from nature and from circumstances, that was attractive and showy. This was worldliness.
The fear about Corinth was not respecting religious or Judaizing influence. Neither was it (at least in the second epistle) from the working of an infidel mind, or from the sports of an unclean and lustful nature, but "the god of this world " was feared by the apostle.
2. He glories only in either his infirmities or in such dignities as separated him from all worldly estimation, as his, rapture into paradise; for the world would not understand such honour.
2 Cor. 2:14 - 7:4. This is a parenthesis. The apostle presents his ministry in several characteristics of it.
2 Cor. 7:5-16. Here the apostle resumes and pursues the point from which he had departed at chapter 2:13. He expresses his joy in the Corinthians, and in the grace that was in them.
I might observe, that the apostle's commendation of the Corinthians in chapter 7, previous to his large and fervent rebuke of them in chapters 10 - 13, may remind us of the way of the Spirit in His addresses to the seven churches in the Revelation; for in each of them there is a beginning with a commendation, and then (when called for) an enlarging in the way of rebuke and condemnation.


Month One Complete. This is Not a Drill.
You know that story that you hear from a friend of a friend that their friend was accepted into dental school days before the school year started? Well…that was me. And let me tell you…that was a complete disaster turned serendipitous blessing. However, let me rewind for a hot minute. I had a pre-December interview for CU (cue the excitement). Walking out of the interview, I thought I had nailed it. The interviewer even laughed during it, yet I eventually received the crushing news that I was waitlisted. If I didn't get in, I wasn't sure what I was going to do. At the time, I was working for AppleCare as their technology support specialist. I thought about taking a year off and continuing my work for Apple. This would give me ample time to improve my dental resume with more shadowing hours, retake the DAT, rewrite my personal statement, and attend various missions and outreach opportunities. However, on the Wednesday before Orientation Week, I was sitting in Pei Wei enjoying some Pad Thai when I got a call from Barbara telling me of my acceptance…I have never danced for joy as much as I did in Pei Wei at that very moment (and probably scarred some people with my horribly happy dance moves). My future was no longer uncertain! I packed up my entire house in the following two days and left for Colorado on a 16-hour drive from Arizona. Tack on a new apartment search, transportation, endless paperwork, and you can see why my life felt like COMPLETE CHAOS.
I was finally settled in and came to a realization that a mini life crisis had ended. I could now appreciate how amazing CU is and what I had to look forward to for four years. First of all, the campus is beautiful (from the classrooms to the grassy hangout areas). Everyone in my class is a gem, and the upperclassmen are extremely helpful with tips on how to succeed in different courses and wax labs. Thus far, I have learned so much academically – I've probably learned more information this month than I have from all of undergrad – and so much about myself. I have learned that my brain will absorb the most information between the hours of 8pm and midnight and that study groups do actually work. Over these next four years, I look forward to growing my involvement in and outside of the school. With all the constant studying, taking a break to volunteer, grab dinner, or even hangout in downtown Denver will definitely benefit the brain and give it a rest. This is a great place to call home right now.
Never give up. This is especially true with your personal statement – I can honestly say I went through at least five drafts, with two of those starting completely over. I would suggest asking different types of people (your acquaintance who knows everything about dentistry, your friend who obsesses over rap music, the tutor at your local library, etc.) to read your statement and ask for critical, honest feedback from their point of view. Variety is key. One more thing, I would advise you to not ask for feedback from your parents (at least I didn't). They might not be the best choice to give you the blunt, constructive criticism you need.
When people say that the hardest part is getting in, it is true. Once you are in, the faculty sincerely want you to succeed (one of my professors even offered us his lunch hour every day to come in for help for the exam).
Life throws you curveballs, so take the risk and catch as many as you can. Be adaptable.
If you get waitlisted, write a letter of intent…or many (I wrote about five to Barbara. And yes, the admissions committee does actually read them. On my very first day of orientation, Barbara told me how excited she was for me because she knew how much I wanted it).
