Elaine and Jaycin raced through the sprawling passageways, afraid the monster was just on their heels. The cut on Elaine's leg burned, but she didn't care; a small scratch could wait when there was a hungry Hissi chasing them.
Mundo had gotten himself in quite the predicament, finding himself arrested and placed in jail among a group of other criminals. A stroke of luck occurred when the electricity was knocked out, causing all the cell pods to malfunction and release the prisoners. The rag tag trio of Mundo, Tyree the Lutari, and a tax-evading Acara named Petrina set off to try to create a weapon to fend off the enemy, but they were stopped short.
A monstrous Slorg had cornered Mina. She stood back against the wall, spear aimed at the beast. It reminded Talzadon of the Monoceraptor both in size and ferocity.
In the infirmary in Faerieland, a lone wraith Lupe sits by a bed with a Faerie Kougra sleeping in it. It may be hard to believe, but the two were best friends who had found each other after having been apart for six years. They had met many years before then. The Lupe, Miezul Savarin was not always a wraith Lupe, nor was he like the Neopets who had been turned into wraiths by the dark power that had sparked the war that now raged all over Neopia. All he ever wanted in the past and in the present was peace. But it seemed no peace would come between what his friend, Solnel Flyte was and what he now was. He felt that even though he had his best friend and others beside him, he'd be forever alone. Forever lonely. Six years ago, a red Lupe entered the ruins of a lost, cursed castle. He did not have long to live as he has met with bandits along the way and before being stricken down, one had sliced him across the chest with a dagger and he felt his life ebbing away. He cursed and fell, his legs no longer able to sustain his weight. He rolled onto his back and tried not to look at his chest. He knew he was dying but could not accept it because of what he was here to do in the first place. He had come to find a way to help his best friend face the greatest challenge of his life. And here he was, about to die and leave his friend to face the challenge alone. Suddenly, a purple glow came into view and the red Lupe saw the purple eyes of a wraith Lupe staring into his. He grinned weakly at it.

Alien Aishas have GROSS tastes!!


It's almost December 1, which means there are only a few more weeks of shopping left for the holiday season. But what would be worse than not having a new shiny toy for Biscuit on Christmas morning? Make sure you treat the pets on your "nice" list to a little holiday cheer this year.
To help you in your shopping endeavors, here are just a few presents that PetRelocation loves to see under any Christmas tree.
PetMate Sky Kennel—The Cadillac of pet travel crates, the Sky Kennel is approved for pet travel world-wide. Your dog or cat will be safe and comfortable in this crate for many years to come.
Customized Dog Breed Leash Holder—Decorate your new home with a customized leash holder, depicting a silhouette of your dog's breed. With an extensive list of dog breeds, from Goldendoodles to Keeshonds, you shouldn't have any trouble selecting the perfect image. Hang this in the foyer or the mud room and you'll always be ready with a leash nearby when Sneakers decides it's time to go for a walk. DogGiftShop.com recommends ordering by December 18, 2006 for Christmas delivery.
A diamond is forever, but a Swarovski crystal collar will grace your dog for years to come. These Swarovski Crystal Bone Dog Collars from Muttropolis.com, a high-end dog and cat boutique, are more than just a collar—they're a necklace! Make sure that Paris, your teacup Chihuahua, lives up to her name. She'll look dashing in an ice-blue leather collar dotted with aqua crystals.
And if your other dog, Ryan Seacrest, is feeling a little left out, there are some more manly collars available on Muttropolis.com, such as the Crystal Chic Four Row Diamond Collars. At a steep $200+ they might break the bank, but who ever said being a celebrity dog was easy?
If high fashion is your style, the PetQuarter.com brings New Orleans charm and uptown luxury to your pet shopping needs. While you're there, check out their Lagniappe Section, where they have links to charities supporting the pets affected by Katrina. They offer CeCe Kent Designer Fashions, who has designed an array of matching goods for the most selective of pets. If you can't get enough of Kate Spade, they offer the Kate Collection, filled with black and white prints and carriers that mirror the Kate Spade style of luggage. If you and your pooch are more the classic type, check out the Ralph Collection, which boasts rich leathers and traditional colors. My personal favorite is this Ralph Taos Carrier, a carrier for pets weighing up to 8 pounds, made of Italian leather decorated with simple buckles and brass rivets. Perfect for toting DeDe around in Breckinridge over the holidays.
For a gift that will last a lifetime, you might want to consider a portrait or photograph of your pets. Paige Morrison Photography is currently dominating the market with gorgeous shots of all sorts of pets, with and without their owners. Her photos capture the energy and love that people have for pets.
Just remember during your shopping—it's the thought that counts! And sometimes, when it come to pets, the most exciting part for them is tearing up the wrapping paper and batting the ribbons around after all of the presents have been opened.

City of Vice is a British historical crime drama television series set in Georgian London and first screened on 14 January 2008 on Channel 4.

Premise
The series mixes fiction with fact following the fortunes of the famous novelist Henry Fielding (Ian McDiarmid) and his brother John (Iain Glen). Henry and John Fielding were magistrates of Westminster and the men who created the modern police force in Britain through the Bow Street Runners.  The series was written by Clive Bradley and Peter Harness, whose scripts were nominated for a Writers' Guild of Great Britain Award for Best Series, 2008.  It was directed by Justin Hardy and Dan Reed.  The historical consultant was Hallie Rubenhold.

Other information
The show uses authentic historical research to tell the story of the two men battling to create a police force, 75 years before Robert Peel founded the Metropolitan Police. Henry Fielding's memoirs and contemporary sources such as the Old Bailey Sessions Papers have been used to provide historical accuracy to the series, whilst other historical figures such as the Duke of Newcastle (Sam Spruell) and the Fieldings' collaborator Saunders Welch (Francis Magee) appear as characters.

The series uses innovative mapping sequences to follow the narrative and characters' progress, wherein John Rocque's map of 1746 is seen from above, becomes firstly 3D and ultimately merges with film sequences of the next scene to pick up the narrative tale.

The series won the Royal Television Society Judges' Award, 2008.

Episodes

Episode One

(Written by Peter Harness.  Directed by Justin Hardy.)  The Fielding brothers investigate an attempted murder of a prostitute found raped and horrifically mutilated in a bagnio.

Episode Two

(Written by Clive Bradley.  Directed by Dan Reed.)  The Reverend Erasmus Cavendish is found murdered and the evidence leads to an infamous Molly house on Saffron Hill, a  brothel and rendezvous for London's gay men, where William Flynn is named as the prime  suspect. It also turns out that Mr. Daniel Carne, one of the Bow Street Runners, is a closet homosexual and sodomite (at the time a crime punishable by death). Mr. Carne must choose between sin (and living a life with his secret homosexual lover) and redemption. Mr. Carne is eventually discovered to be with his lover who also turns out to be the Reverend's killer. Daniel is summarily relieved of his duties as one of the Bow Street Runners. Tom is found guilty and hanged.

Episode Three

(Written by Peter Harness. Directed by Dan Reed.)  The Bow Street Runners investigate a burglary in Mayfair, the search leading to the shanty towns of Covent Garden, known as the Seven Dials, and a gang of Irish immigrant criminals.

Episode Four

(Written by Clive Bradley.  Directed by Justin Hardy.)  The gang leader, ironically named Tom Jones, is broken out of jail by his Irish gang, who shoot several prison guards in the process. The Bow Street Runners then travel to the Seven Dials to re-arrest Jones. Henry Fielding accompanies them to make sure Jones is apprehended, but is taken hostage by the gang. The Runners must decide if they're prepared to make a deal with the criminal elements of London to ensure his release. We also learn of how John Fielding, the Magistrate's half-brother became blind ("his sight was poor, but a quack's remedy blinded him.")

Episode Five

(Written by Clive Bradley.  Directed by Justin Hardy.)  Henry's narrative returns to the situation before the creation of the Runners. While lobbying the Duke of Newcastle to obtain his support for the venture, Henry investigates a secretive trade in child prostitutes. The UK DVD release of the series has this as the first episode.

Reception
City of Vice launched with 2.7 million viewers and an 11% share in the 9pm hour on Channel 4. The first episode of City of Vice was relatively well received in the British press, The Times describing it as "an antidote to the current spate of twee costume dramas" and "more likely to resonate with cynical modern audiences". The Guardian described it as looking "gravelled for cash" but compensating with "documentary direction and Ian McDairmid's voice, as rich as a liqueur."

DVD release
Contender Entertainment Group released the complete series on DVD in Region 2 (UK) on 18 February 2008.  This release has been discontinued and is now out of print.

Entertainment One released the complete series on DVD in Region 1 on 10 June 2008.

Bow Street Runner – the game
Bow Street Runner was an online game in five parts to accompany the series. Like the television series the game attempts to be historically accurate. The player takes control of a "Bow Street Runner" and has to solve several crimes by collecting clues, consulting witnesses and visiting several places in Georgian London.
Each character is played by an actor (e.g. John Fielding is played by Julian Glover).
The game itself is accompanied by several minigames which simulate various activities like picking locks or shooting. The game was produced by Brighton-based company Littleloud, and won a BAFTA in November 2008.

How to be a poet in Hawai`i — or elsewhere — who opposes imperialism, colonization, the military, and yet appears, as a Euro-American, to embody them? I've worried this issue before on my own blog, and thought I'd think more about it here by way of a new book from BlazeVox by Scott Abels.
Abels, whose MFA is from Boise State in the state of Idaho, notorious for its white supremacists, has lived in Hawai`i for several years now. His thesis forms the basis for his first book, Rambo Goes to Idaho, which moves between Idaho and Hawai`i. As he writes in the first section of "Idaho Conspiracy," a poem obliquely about moving to Hawai`i: "My Composition 1100 assignment was to guess the titles / of the first five poems on the Poetry and Politics website." Then this: "The only thing I could come up with was / Hawaii comes before Idaho alphabetically" (49). Abels's move back in the alphabet forces him to look at the problem of American empire, although one senses he did so before his "geographically confusing" move. For the MFA thesis is set up as that of John Rambo, whose thesis signature page comes after two brief proems called "Screenplay" and "Burst." It is this poem that begins with the lines I appropriated for my title, those that assert that Rambo is good, but is a "product of the world" (9). Anyone who reads post-colonial literature knows the character of the bad English teacher, the one who is a secular missionary, who tells children they are not good enough because they speak Pidgin or another local language, and not the good English that he or she represents. No surprise then that John Rambo "is teaching English" (9), or that his "boss is explaining that English / as a second language / / is essentially the same / as special education" (10). Here special ed is aligned with special forces, by way of a fictional pop cultural icon who is deeply imbricated in American culture since the Vietnam era. While Rambo seems a confusing and confused character, Ronald Reagan famously declared him a Republican. Abels's Rambo is more like a Soviet version of Don Quixote: a little bit silly, hardly a strong-man, prone to noting things like "I am a sparrow to his peacock," about his professor, Paul Bunyan.
Complexity can make us want certainty; what is most certain is the violence, actual and articulated, of our time. Abels implies that the acquisition of Hawai`i was such an act of attempted certainty: "The President has acquired the last state in the Union / as his generic talisman / toward not getting robbed" (25). What to make of such certitude and the damages it inflicts?
Much as we might want it to, Abels's poetry does not offer us an out, except insofar as it brings that outward violence in, examines its absurdities. And that is not to be sneezed at. Because the problem we arrive at after the violence of imperialism is counter-violence. The issue, as Eunsong Angela K. said to me in a different context in San Diego, is "what to do with power." My colleague Caroline Sinavaiana writes: "As we know, Trask's poetry can at times offer a fierce and tender beauty. In my view, this particular poem does neither. As reader here I end up feeling shut out of an experience – that of blatant injustice – which I know all too well. As a Polynesian thinker and cultural worker, I am all too familiar with the scourge of colonial degradation and its neocolonial aftermath. Yes, I have experienced rage. Yes, I understand the situation. But no, I do not find it productive to demonize white folks (of either gender) as a class and threaten violent retaliation, however 'figuratively.'The question for me is not whether [Trasks's] rage is well-founded. Of course it is. The questions for me is what to do now. How to respond most skillfully? How to step out of the cycle of violence? How to harness the energy of rage, with its considerable power, as fuel for vehicles which can both heal us and restore justice? How to confront and respond to ongoing injustice in ways that strengthen us (and each other), instead of turning the violence against ourselves and our own? I think this poem could point us towards such necessary questions."
By virtue of his subject position, combined with his politics, Abels cannot assume a position of extremity in either direction. His position is an absurd one, but he has thought his way into that absurdity with a courage different from that of his subject. What his work offers back are the very complexities we are heir to, delivered up not as entertainment for the masses, but for those few of us who read poems. In his 2008 review of the last Rambo movie, A.O. Scott noted that, "the movie does have its own kind of blockheaded poetry." Abels's poetry is not blockheaded in any way, nor is it particularly cinematic. As work that is neither visual nor violent, it offers us a possible space for meditation, a place from which to contemplate the violence of power, and perhaps another--less entertaining, but more productive--way out of it.

Cousins Subs Make It Better Foundation Awards $10,500 In Community Grants To Three Local Nonprofits
Organizations Look to Address Vital Needs of Health & Wellness, Hunger and Youth Education
By Cousins Subs - Jan 20th, 2022 08:54 am
MILWAUKEE (January 20, 2022) – Cousins Subs® announces three organizations as recipients of a combined $10,500 in grants through its Make It Better Foundation. Funding will help offset the cost of resources and programming that address the vital community needs of health and wellness, hunger and youth education.
"As a family-owned business, Cousins Subs is founded on its commitment to serve others and treat everyone as family," said Justin McCoy, vice president of marketing at Cousins Subs. "Our Make It Better Foundation was born out of this commitment, and we are fortunate enough to be able to give back to the communities that have been by our side for the last 50 years."
The three Make It Better Foundation grant recipients include:
Blessings in a Backpack – A $3,000 grant will help fund the organization's efforts to provide weekly nutritious food for students in need at Townsend Elementary school in Milwaukee. Volunteers discretely pack food into these students' backpacks every Friday after school to ensure they do not go hungry on the weekends.
Ebenezer Stone Ministries – A $5,000 grant will help fund new refrigerators and freezers at the organization's new pantry space. With more than 250 volunteers, Ebenezer Stone Ministries works hard to provide food and clothing to their neighbors and community in Milwaukee.
Fondy Food Pantry – A $2,500 grant will help fund the organization's Food for Thought program that provides weekend food for students in the Fond du Lac school district. The funds will specifically be used to purchase fresh fruits and shelf-stable milk, two items that are particularly expensive to provide in each bag.
Since the inception of the Make It Better Foundation in 2013, Cousins Subs has supported its local communities through monetary donations to nonprofits, education scholarships and food aid. To date, the foundation has donated nearly $750,000 to 131 benefiting nonprofit organizations.

Little Lady saw this oyster-shell pendant in my bead box and asked if I could make her something with it.
I used the colours in the pendant to pick out my beads.
yes she wore it till we disagreed on something and then she took it off and handed it back to me! She has taken it back again.
I liked the quote too, whenever I feel like I have to wait for inspiration it kind of spurs me on.

Q: App running in backgroung after "Process.Start". How to fix this? I have a .NetCore 3.0 Console application that is starting normally when clicked on "App.exe".
However, when I call it through "Process.Start("C:\App\App.exe ")", it is running in the background.
How to fix this?
private static void Init_App()
         {
            try
            {
                Process.Start("C:\\App\\App.exe");

            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Err - " + e.Message);
            }
         }

A: I am not sure what the problem is when you say it "runs in the background".
But if you want to run a separate process that keeps running even if you close the first app and that it is NOT a child of the first process....
Then you can do something like this:
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        var info = new ProcessStartInfo
        {
            UseShellExecute = true,
            FileName = @"C:\App\App.exe",//this app also needs a Console.ReadLine at the end of it's Main method.
            WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Normal
        };
        Process.Start(info);

        Console.ReadLine();
    }

Also remember that Console Applications close really fast if they exit the Main method.
So in your App.exe add a Console.ReadLine at the end of the Main method so that it actually stays open.  Otherwise it will close immediately.
When you debug visual studio keeps the console app running but that is just a setting under:
Tools-> Debugging-> General -> Automatically close the console when debugging stops
But when the app is deployed or called from another app it will close as soon as the Main method is done.

The author of Diagnosing Jefferson introduces twelve more high-achieving role models—including Einstein, Mozart, and Darwin—who have made significant contributions to our world. All exhibited traits common to people with Asperger's Syndrome. Today's young people and adults with AS can also make a difference if they are given support, opportunities, and the freedom to explore their abilities. Many accomplished people have been loners, self-taught, obsessed by an idea, and known for their lack of social skills. How many of them would be diagnosed with Asperger's today? Norm Ledgin makes convincing arguments for an Asperger's role in each of their extraordinary lives.
Norm and his wife Marsha were professional partners as safety educators, and then business partners in weekly newspaper publishing for fifteen years. With this book, they have renewed their professional partnership, after a hiatus during which they dedicated themselves to full-time parenting. They have two daughters, Stephanie and Allison, and three sons, David, Alfred, and Nicholas.


Today we are announcing that we will be attending as a vendor/sponsor at the Charm City Smoke Fest in Baltimore, Maryland on April 20th 2019 from 12pm-12am.
Located in downtown Baltimore's Harbor East, a few minutes walking distance from the Inner Harbor. This will be the first year of the Charm City Smoke Fest in celebration of Maryland's Medical Marijuana program. Those 18 and older with a valid MMCC and their Maryland ID will even have designated areas to ELEVATE their experience.
Unfortunately, during a free ticket celebration for Bob Marley's birthday, the $25 dollar general admission tickets sold out, 5500 in total! But have NO FEAR, you can still PURCHASE VIP TICKETS at $50 a pop while supplies last (less than 300 left)! These VIP TICKETS come with over $100 worth of extras and access to all areas of the event!
The event will feature live music from EDJACATED PHOOLS, THE ROGUE CITIZENS, ELECTRIC LOVE MACHINE, STRATUS FEAR and SOOHAN. These bands feature reggae, rock, hip hop, future wave/space disco, ska and dance to cover all of your listening needs!
These festivals are so much more than a place to enjoy our ELEVATED holiday. They are a place where we can fight the stigma around Cannabis and her users. Yes, we all love to relax and enjoy, but we also need the world to see that what was once taboo, is no longer now that the cloud of lies has been lifted. It's time for a new cloud! A cloud from our smoke that shows we aren't lowlifes, but we are productive members of society that just want an opportunity to treat our aliments or relax after a stressful day of work and life with a safe, natural choice.
So hurry over to Charmcitysmokefest.com get you one of those remaining VIP TICKETS. Have a look around to see what fun you will be having!

Coconino County in relationship to other Arizona state counties.
Sedona AZ (November 26, 2018) – On November 6, 2018, Coconino County's voters adopted merit selection to replace the direct election of superior court judges. Going forward, candidates for superior court judge vacancies will apply to a sixteen-person commission, which will nominate qualified candidates based on their merit and submit their names to the governor for appointment to the bench. This process has been used since 1975 for Arizona's appellate judges, including the Supreme Court, and is also now used to select superior court judges in Maricopa, Pima, and Pinal Counties.
Arizona's merit selection system is part of Arizona's state constitution. Each county that participates in merit selection has its own nonpartisan commission that reviews applications, takes public input on candidates, and interviews candidates for judicial openings. After the public interview process, the commission submits the names of at least three highly qualified applicants to the Governor for selection for each opening. Each commission includes the chief justice or another justice (who generally do not vote) and fifteen members of the public who are appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Arizona Senate. Judicial nominating commissions have ten non-lawyers and five attorney members.
Once a judge is appointed under the merit selection process, a separate Arizona Commission on Judicial Performance Review (JPR) reviews whether the judge meets judicial performance standards and provides the results to voters. The JPR Commission includes attorneys, judges, and public members.
Superior Court judges appointed under the merit selection system appear on their county's election ballot for the first time two years after their initial appointment and then every four years. Voters receive the JPR Commission's ratings in their voter publicity pamphlets before the general election. The county's voters decide whether to retain the judge in office for another four years.
For more information on the Judicial Nominating Commission, the Arizona Commission on Judicial Performance Review, and other committees, commissions, councils, and boards, see the Arizona Judicial Branch's website at https://www.azcourts.gov/committeescommissions.

It's all change this year in the GP2 series, with the top three from 2013, Fabio Leimer, Sam Bird and James Calado amongst the drivers all departing to pastures new. 2014 will see no fewer than eight drivers making their debuts in the GP2 series. Lets take a closer look at those debutants and where they plied their trade in 2013.
At 29 becomes one of the oldest rookies in GP2 history, and moves over from Japan where he raced in the Super Formula series last year with minimal success. Joins ART as part of the Honda link-up the team have with McLaren F1. Might struggle in comparison to his team-mate Stoffel Vandoorne.
Highly-rated by many, and part of the Ferrari F1 junior programme who had to decide whether to place him in GP2 or Formula Renault 3.5, an ultimately Racing Engineering, who took Fabio Leimer to the 2013 championship, was his final destination for 2014. The Italian comes into GP2 as the reigning FIA European F3 Champion. Has a 2013 GP2 title contender in Stefano Coletti as his team-mate which promises to be a good in-house battle.
Finished as runner-up in the German Formula Three championship in 2013 behind Marvin Kirchhofer. Steps up to the GP2 series this year, and becomes the first Russian to race for the Russian Time team. Maybe has stepped up too far too soon, especially with Kirchhofer only moving to GP3, but only time will tell. Has a very talented team-mate in the form of Mitch Evans to contend with too.
The Brazilian moves over from the Formula Renault 3.5 series where he raced for International Draco Racing, taking a solitary podium in 2013 at Paul Ricard. Should have aims to be the best Arden driver in the series, with Austrian Rene Binder his team-mate this year.
Pic is another driver who has swapped Formula Renault 3.5 for GP2 in 2014. He is the younger brother of Lotus F1 reserve driver Charles, and joins Campos Racing after three years in FR3.5. He scored a solitary podium in Aragon last year for AV Formula and should provide Campos with a solid and professional year of driving. Has another rookie in the form of Kimiya Sato as his 2014 team-mate.
Regalia is possibly the best hope Argentina have of becoming a Formula 1 driver at present. He finished runner-up to new Toro Rosso F1 driver Daniil Kvyat in 2013, taking the GP3 series title battle to the final event in Abu Dhabi. Has German driver Daniel Abt as team-mate, meaning Hilmer have the past two GP3 series runner-up's in their team for 2014.
Sato became the second Japanese driver to be announced for 2014, and has moved from the Auto GP World Series where he finished second in the championship last year to join Campos Racing in GP2. Tested for the Sauber F1 team in last years young driver test at Silverstone so should be one to watch as he gets used to the GP2 cars. Frenchman Arthur Pic should give him a good challenge as his 2014 team-mate.
The McLaren F1 reserve driver comes into GP2 regarded as one of the best young drivers around right now. Moves over from Formula Renault 3.5 where he finished second behind Kevin Magnussen, but his consistency was brilliant and should be regarded as a pre-season favourite this year with ART. Should comfortably outscore and outperform team-mate Takuya Izawa.

Active page: Focus Albertinum A.R. Penck
Born as Ralf Winkler in 1939 in Dresden, A.R. Penck worked under many pseudonyms as a painter, sculptor, Super-8 filmmaker, jazz musician, and poet. In the GDR, as a non-conformist artist who operated outside of the official established art system and found early international recognition, he suffered under reprisals that led to his permanent expulsion in 1980.
Like no other artist, Penck critically engaged with the division of Germany. He addressed the conflicts and contradictions of both political systems in a visual language developed in the style of prehistoric cave painting that also reflected his interest in cybernetics, sign systems, and information systems. From early figurative painting, developed narrow stick figures, symbols, codes, and abstract signs in the 1960s. He used them in his World- and System Pictures as pictorial representations of complex political and social situations.

Check it out man, check it out. A. R. Penck
Clear images create clear space that make fluctuations recognizable. A. R. Penck
Penck's work Go Go Gorbatschow is emblematic of his thematization of the historical moment of burgeoning hope in divided Germany in the face of Glasnost and Perestroika in the Soviet Union, to which he gave an individual artistic form.
He was a professor in Düsseldorf, participated in Documenta multiple times, represented the German Pavilion in Venice and had large-scale solo exhibitions internationally. A.R. Penck last lived in Ireland.

Former Anderson Co. Sheriff Shot During Robbery
POSTED BY WLAS January 26th, 2014 0 COMMENTS
GREENVILLE, S.C. —A former Anderson County sheriff and former WYFF News 4 employee was shot Saturday night outside his Greenville apartment.
Gene Taylor said he was returning to his apartment at the Preserves at Woods Lake around 8:30 p.m. when masked men approached him demanding money. He says they hit him on the head then shot him in the leg when he refused their demands.
"It's kind of ironic. I spend 16 years in law enforcement, got shot at and shot at people and never got hurt. And then just bringing in groceries, somebody sneaks up behind you, pulls a gun, robs you and you end up getting shot and here you are on the other side of everything," Taylor said.
"He deliberately with all intent put it jammed up against my thigh, I got powder burns," Taylor said. "It was like a sledgehammer."
"They were both, my guess would be very young. Sixteen to 20 years old and black males. The one with the bandana looked to be a very clean-cut kid. The little bit I could see of him. The other one had a full-face Halloween-type mask. Both of them 5 foot-10 to 6 foot-1," Taylor said.
"I have a feeling I was one of the first people they encountered. They probably didn't expect former law enforcement that might actually try to do something," Taylor said.
Taylor had this to say to the men he says robbed him: "In the long run you're going to be dead. I don't care how macho you think you are or you're going to be in prison," Taylor said.
Taylor was unloading groceries from his rental car when he was pushed from behind.
"I turned around and he said give me your money or I'll shoot you," Taylor said.
Taylor said he gave him a checkbook, but the gunman didn't want it. Taylor grabbed the gun.
"Pushed it in toward him. But, when I was doing that a second guy jumped out of the car and I was hit in the head with something by one of them. I went down and then he shot me and then I thought maybe this is a good time to give him the money," Taylor said.
Taylor said they took off with his wallet and he went in the opposite direction, knocking on several neighbors' doors for help. Finally, he said, one neighbor came to the door and gave him a belt to use as a tourniquet.
Taylor said he couldn't connect to 911 on his cellphone, so he called the county he used to serve. He remembered the Anderson County Emergency Services number who notified Greenville police.
Taylor is expected to recover but spent Saturday night at the hospital with injuries. "I'm still going to come in and out of my car. I might be a little better armed," Taylor said.
"You know, it makes me angry. It's one of those coulda- woulda-shoulda things. All the things you could do differently. It's not that I'm thinking, 'I wished it didn't happen.' I would really like to get the little s.o.b and wish I had and didn't and I don't want him to hurt somebody else," Taylor said.
Greenville police ask if you know any information about this case to call Crime Stoppers at 864-23-CRIME.

As Wölffer Turns 30, Winemaker Roman Roth Looks to the Future
By Hannah Selinger| June 27, 2018
"The prejudice has changed against Long Island wines," says Roth, whose beloved wines have had a huge role in helping to change the conversation.
In addition to his beloved wines, Roman Roth also uses his own juniper berries to make gin at Wolffer Vineyard. • Photo by Lindsay Morris
This year, Sagaponack's Wölffer Estate Vineyards will celebrate its 30th season, an impressive feat for any winery—and especially for one on eastern Long Island. Although Wölffer began making wines in 1992 (particularly a Chardonnay that has enjoyed great cosmopolitan success in 4-star New York City restaurants), they opened the doors to their Sagg Main winery in 1997.
The project began as the brainchild of Christian Wölffer, who recruited a young German winemaker, fresh out of a master's program, to help make quality Long Island wines. "At the time," Wölffer winemaker Roman Roth said, "Christian Wölffer was planning on starting a winery and needed a winemaker, somebody who could fulfill the ambition of making great wines. My wife and I came in 1992 and started buying a press. We had to beg people to taste our wines at the beginning—they didn't want to touch it with a stick. It had to be French. It had to be big, fat California wines."
Of course, a lot has changed in the intervening three decades, including the American palate. Americans may always prefer juicy, robust wines to refined, bright ones, but we're coming along. Long Island, too, has enjoyed a certain reputational renaissance, and Wölffer has been one of many beneficiaries of this shift of narrative. The East End, once known for wealth and beaches and more wealth, is now seen as a hotbed of agricultural riches and winemaking innovation. Once a beach destination, we're now a wine destination, a shift that has to do with underlying culture, yes, but also with the reliable presence of Wölffer.
"We always focused on the quality of the wine, but now we have the right home for it," says Roman Roth. • Photo by Bridget Elkin
"We always focused on the quality of the wine, but now we have the right home for it," Mr. Roth said of the massive brick-and-mortar space. In fact, the inception of the winery itself has allowed the winemaking to grow with time. In 1992, Wölffer's inaugural vintage, the winery produced 3,100 cases of wine; in 2018, they produce 78,000 cases. "To make this jump with building a great reputation is a big achievement," Mr. Roth said. "You're increasing your quality while increasing your quantity." The winery, which began as a 4-person operation, now employs 120 people. The winery can now dedicate more money to vineyard care, which includes vine management, early leaf-removal, and hand picking. The vines have aged (older vines means more concentrated flavors) and the method has become refined. The winery has added new equipment, like a de-stemmer that aids in sorting by removing stems and particulates from grape clusters, which contribute to "green," underdeveloped flavors in wine.
Climate change, too, has been a factor in Wölffer's evolution. "We're picking two or three weeks earlier than we used to. It gives you riper fruit. It has brought out the best of this region. We're the same latitude of Madrid and Naples, but we have this cool ocean influence, so the more heat we have gotten, it has ripened our fruit, with lower acidity and alcohol. Twenty years ago, there were more green flavors," Mr. Roth said. In any other industry, climate change may feel like a liability, but in regions where warm weather and reliable sunshine is a dice roll—and where the conflation of a late harvest and hurricane season may render a vintage obsolete—the warming planet may just produce one thing of value.
Wölffer began as a serious winery with a serious dedication to red and white wine. Somewhere along the way, however, the winery became synonymous with one word: rosé. And although categorizing Wölffer as a Rosé Winery is not at all accurate, it's also a definition that the winery does not shy away from. "A couple of years ago," Mr. Roth said, "we made the decision to embrace rosé instead of treating it like the evil stepchild. We deliberately make our rosé. We've always focused on it and picked our rosé early. The consistency of our rosé—there's nothing like it, every year. Maybe the rosé was the one that could be the most easily accepted." The rosé has enjoyed such popularity, in fact, that the winery sells out of the current vintage before Labor Day every year.
"Failure is not an option anymore," says Roth. Photo by Bridget Elkin
Still, Wölffer is far more than "drink pink." The winery produces high-end wines, like Chardonnay and Merlot. They produce dry ciders and gin. The brand has grown with time, and now includes an impressive array of well-crafted wines and spirits that speak to the terroir of Eastern Long Island. With the evolution of the palate comes the evolution of expectation, too. Mr. Roth describes his winemaking now as "bolder" and "more confident." At the beginning, tannic wines were shunned, since they were not immediately drinkable. But, as Wölffer's reputation has grown with the times, so, too, has the drinking public. The winery can now make tannic wines that need to be laid down, wines with longevity, wines with gravitas. "The prejudice," Mr. Roth said, "has changed against Long Island wines."
Christian Wölffer died in 2009, though his children, Marc and Joey, continue his namesake, with Roman Roth at the helm. The family-owned estate embraces authenticity above all else. "Failure is not an option anymore," Mr. Roth said.
Wölffer Estate Vineyards will be celebrating the occasion of their 30th season with a number of upcoming special releases and events, including the limited-edition Amarone-style 2014 Claletto, released only in anniversary years; a Tuesday night education series at the wine stand; a "Grilling with Roman" event on August 15, during which Mr. Roth will team up with a high-profile chef for a hosted dinner; a limited-edition, October release brandy; and a sustainability series called "Sustainable Wölffer," designed to educate the community about sustainability.

· YouTube is claiming that more than 1 billion unique users visit its website each month.
· Users spend more than 6 billion hours watching videos.
· More and more businesses are using videos to promote better awareness of their products.
· YouTube is the most used site for travel videos.
The key to turning lookers into bookers is found in delivering creative, yet relevant, content that informs and entertains travelers and prospective guests, and there's no better vehicle to do that than video.
Are you using video to market your hotel? Those of us who have been in the hospitality industry for many years can remember when we were first encouraged to create a website. Next came communication by email. Now we have to have a Facebook page. The next imperative marketing tool: the VIDEO.
Video can increase traffic to your website, appear in Google search results and help convert more sales opportunities. It is becoming a form of marketing expected by customers today. A picture is worth a thousand words, and online hotel videos can help your property capture more guests. It is not just costly professional video productions that get noticed online. If you have a computer, video camera, a bit of know-how, and do your research, hotels can achieve excellent results at a fraction of the cost.
There are numerous videos on You Tube that are professionally created marketing tools for New Hampshire and Vermont hotel/motels that are not linked from the hotel's website. I find it difficult to understand why a hotel would create the video without establishing a link.
Does your hotel have a video available for prospective guests to view? If not, will you create on in 2014? If so is there a link available from your website?
This North Conway motel offers an informative video promoting their accommodations.

Lázár Bence (Kecskemét, 1991. március 21. – 2018. február 22.) magyar labdarúgó, csatár.

Pályafutása
A Lajosmizsei VLC-ben nevelkedett egészen 2006-ig, amikor is leszerződtette az Újpest FC. Tizenhét évesen járt külföldön a holland Twente és az olasz Vicenza csapatánál is, mielőtt a fővárosi csapattól profi szerződést kapott volna. Kezdetekben az ificsapatban kapott lehetőséget, ahol 14 mérkőzésen 5 gólt szerzett. 2010-ben kölcsönben az osztrák SV Würmla csapatánál szerepelt.
NB I-es bemutatkozásakor két gólt szerzett a Kaposvári Rákóczi ellen, majd a Magyar Kupában is betalált a Lombard Pápának és a BFC Siófok kapuját is bevette. A 2011-es tavaszi szezont 13 mérkőzésen szerzett 8 góllal zárta.

A 2012–13-as szezon jelentős részét kihagyta sérülés és rehabilitáció miatt, klubja ennek ellenére szerződést hosszabbított vele 2016 decemberéig. 2013 márciusában egy DVSC elleni bajnokin játszott újra, de hat perccel becserélését követően vállsérülést szenvedett, de az újabb műtétet elkerülte, miután a szalagok nem szakadtak el. 2013 októberében a Magyar Kupában négy gólt lőtt a harmadosztályú Bajának. Tagja volt a fővárosi lila-fehér klub kupagyőztes csapatának, igaz a Diósgyőri VTK elleni döntőben nem lépett pályára.

A következő idényt megelőzően a Nyíregyháza Spartacus vette kölcsön. Október elején jelentette be, hogy egészségügyi okok miatt befejezi profi pályafutását.

A magyar U21-es válogatottban négyszer szerepelt.

Betegsége
Pályafutását 2014-ben hát- és derékbántalmai miatt kellett befejeznie, majd leukémiát diagnosztizáltak nála. A magyar futballtársadalom összefogásának eredményeképp együttérzését fejezte ki a Puskás Akadémia, a Kecskeméti TE, a Diósgyőri VTK és a Ferencvárosi TC is. A rivális klubok különböző felajánlásokkal segítették Lázár kezelését, akit az úgynevezett Hoelzer-protokoll szerint kezeltek, és akinek ekkor csontvelő-átültetésre lett volna szüksége. A kezelések hatására legyengült és lefogyott, azonban állapota stabilizálódott, a Sport TV-n szakkommentátori feladatokat látott el, a sportadó honlapján blogot is vezetett, az ünnepeket családja és szerettei körében tölthette.

Halála
2018. február 20-án családja felhívást tett közzé, miszerint vérkészítményekre, illetve további kezelésekre és segítségre lenne szüksége a teljes gyógyuláshoz. Az Újpest vezetősége véradást szervezett, hogy egykori játékosát segítse. Két nappal később, február 22-én hajnalban hunyt el, 26 évesen. A Szusza Ferenc Stadion előtt aznap este gyertyagyújtással emlékeztek az elhunyt labdarúgóra. Temetése március 7-én volt szülővárosában, Kerekegyházán. Szülővárosában róla nevezték el a sportcentrumot, amit 2019. március 23-án avattak fel hivatalosan. 2019 decemberében díjat alapítottak az emlékezetére, amelyet minden évben a magyar sportmédiában dolgozó legjobb szakértő kap meg.

"It has been easy to characterise Conservatives as indifferent to public services when ministers in previous governments have gone out of their way to avoid using them, whether it is schools or hospitals. The next leader should pledge that, from day one of taking office as prime minister, where there is a choice between a public and a private service, his ministers will always use the public service."
That is the recommendation of blogger Stephen Pollard in today's Guardian. Mr Pollard believes that failure to improve Britain's schools and hospitals is at the centre of popular disenchantment with Labour. He supports radical Conservative remedies to public service failure like school choice but believes that a commitment for ministers to use state schools and hospitals is necessary to change voters' perception that the Tories are not genuinely interested in the public services. Mr Pollard likens such a change to Tony Blair's 1995 dumping of the Labour movement's Clause IV commitment to nationalisation.
"For almost a decade the Tories have sought an idea to show they have changed. Now Stephen Pollard, in a pamphlet for the Centre for Policy Studies, has come up with a Tory 'Clause 4', which will show the party is committed to public services. Pollard suggests "the next leader should pledge that, from day one of taking office as Prime Minister, where there is a choice between a public and a private service, his will ministers will always use the public service". Pollard is right. There is something uncomfortable about a Tory spokesman who sends his children to private schools making arrogant pronouncements on the state system. Pollard's proposal might drive away some potential Tory ministers – but show beyond doubt that the remainder care."


Belting out hits like "Take Me Home Tonight" for the sake of dogs and cats who need forever homes, rocker Eddie Money will raise the roof for those who woof at Rock and Roll to the Rescue 2.
Hosted by former MTV VJ Nina Blackwood, the upcoming concert at the Hard Rock Rocksino – Northfield Park in Cleveland will feature not only a performance by the platinum-selling recording artist, but also several surprise celebrity guests, all to help the paws cause.
Following in the footsteps of fellow rock and roll icon Chubby Checker, who had party animals doing the Twist at the first Rock to the Rescue concert in January, proceeds from the event will benefit Geauga Humane Society's Rescue Village, a 10,500 square foot facility in Russell Township, Ohio which offers a new lease on life to companion animals in need.
Restrictions: Rock and Roll to the Rescue 2 is a humans only event. Must be 21 or older.


Chem Process' Forced Circulation Evaporators are normally used for liquids which are prone to fouling, scaling, crystallizing or for those which are inversely soluble or while concentrating thermally de-gradable materials. Here high re-circulation rate allows high liquor velocities through the tubes which help to minimize the buildup of deposits or crystals along the heating surface. The universal type, preferably used for concentration of solutions containing encrusting substances, hardening agents and un-dissolved solids, and for viscose solutions; also suitable for evaporative crystallization.
Forced circulation is required when hydrostatic head prevents boiling at the heating surface. A pump can also be used to avoid fouling that is caused by the boiling of liquid on the tubes; the pump suppresses bubble formation. Other problems are that the residing time is undefined and the consumption of steam is very high, but at high temperatures, good circulation is easily achieved.
Liquid is circulated at a high rate through the heat exchanger, boiling being prevented within the unit by virtue of a hydrostatic head maintained above the top tube plate. As the liquid enters the separator where the absolute pressure is slightly less than in the tube bundle, the liquid flashes to form vapour.


Patients suffering with schizophrenia are currently treated with antipsychotic medications that can help control hallucinations and delusions. This class of symptom represents one of three normally seen in patients. Sadly, the other two types of symptom (inability to enjoy pleasant experiences, and inability to think clearly) are debilitating and lead to loss of employment, personal relationships and frequently also lead to homelessness. As there is no understanding of the root cause of schizophrenia, and no current medication can alter the course of the disease, we aim to target symptoms of schizophrenia that are reflected in the UK Biobank data resource.
Our previous work with a large US brain tissue biobank identified many genes that are altered in expression in schizophrenia patients compared to normal controls. We have studied the DNA elements that specify expression level of these genes. The UK Biobank has data related to these same DNA elements in people who suffer from cognitive impairment. We wish to use our prior knowledge about the regulation of schizophrenia-risk-related genes and search the UK Biobank for examples of cognitive impairment that will enable us the test our idea that schizophrenia risk genes and cognitive impairment risk genes share the same DNA control elements.
The proposed research will take roughly three years to complete.
Our long-term goal is to develop new schizophrenia therapies based on these proposed studies. Both physicians and patients are frustrated by the lack of fundamentally new therapies since 1952, when the first antipsychotic medication was discovered. All medications that have followed all work on the same principle of reducing dopamine levels in the brain. This approach does not reverse the course of the disease and does not allow most patients to live normal productive lives. We aim to achieve the ambitious goal of creating new medications that will allow patients to live normal lives.
