As the dust finally settles on the manic world of returning to work after a small hiatus, my thoughts return to the Blog. I have been asked on many occasions where I get inspiration from when writing such 'out there' and 'interesting' articles (which I take with compliment). The truth is a lot of my inspiration comes from talking to Walsall landlords and Walsall property owners.
Approximately a fortnight ago I was talking to a professional landlord who has an extensive portfolio up and down the country including a few in Walsall. We got talking about Housing Law and all the regulations/ legislation that landlords need to adhere to.
But, can you name the acts these rules come from? Can you name the recent legislation that demands an energy efficiency assessment be ordered before the property to marketed to let and a valid EPC in place within 7 days and where reasonable to do so, this can be extended up to 21 days. This is detailed in the act The Energy Efficiency (Private Rented Property) (England and Wales) Regulations 2015.
What about the relevant act that gives tenants the powers to report poor housing conditions? This is covered by Section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985. It is this act that obliges tenants to keep the property in a "tenant-like manner". Later acts gave tenants the right to complain without fear of revenge evictions making it a criminal offence to evict a tenant who requests "too many" repairs.
More legislation is working its way through parliament, being written into law, including the upcoming tenant fee ban, deposit cap and potential three-year minimum tenancies!!
Now, more than ever, landlords should give strong consideration to letting their property and managing it themselves. With more than 125.. and counting.. acts of legislation that landlords must be aware of and adhere to, it is no wonder that we regularly see Walsall landlords and Walsall Letting Agents regularly falling short of fulfilling their obligations.
Walsall Property Blog is taking a well earned rest!!
Keeping a blog updated can be an exhausting affair and the last time I took a break was August 2017 so, I've decided to take a well earned rest!! I hope to return to the blog towards the end of November 2018.

Today, we are still on the Shropshire Close estate, but this time a different road, Yorkshire Grove, a splendid 2 bed semi for your delectation.
Is it fair to Blame The Walsall Landlord?
Over the last couple of decades, the rise in the number buy to let properties in Walsall has been nothing short of extraordinary. Many in the "left leaning" press have spoken of a broken nation, the fact many youngsters are unable to buy their first home with the rise of a new cohort of younger renters, whom have been daubed 'Generation Rent' as landlords hoover up all the properties for their buy to let property empires. Government has been blamed in the past for giving landlords an unfair advantage with the tax system. It is also true many of my fellow professionals have done nothing to cover themselves in glory, with some suspect, if not on some rare occasions, downright dubious practices.
Yet has the vilification and unfair criticism of some Walsall landlords gone too far?
It was only a few weeks ago, I read an article in a newspaper of one landlord who had decided to sell their modest buy to let portfolio for a number of reasons, one of which being the new tax rules on buy to let that were introduced last year. The comments section of the newspaper and the associated social media posts were pure hate, and certainly not deserved.
But are the 3,983 Walsall portfolio buy to let landlords at fault?
The Tories allowed people to buy their own Council house in the 1980's, taking them out of the collective pot of social rented houses for future generations to rent them. Landlords have been vilified by many, as it has been suggested by some they have an unhealthy and ravenous materialism approach to make cash and profit at the expense of poor renters, unable to buy their first home. Yet, looking beyond the headline grabbing press, this is in fact 'fake news'. There are seven reasons that have created the perfect storm for private renting to explode in the 2000's.

Q: Java Setting up a Simple Proxy I use a vpn so I need a proxy to make a REST post on POSTMAN. So I setup a Proxy IP and port and it works...
But in Java I get connection timeout even tho I setup the proxy programally.
System.setProperty("http.proxyHost",ip);
System.setProperty("http.proxyPort",port);

What's the reason for this?

A: Java has different properties for http and https proxy settings, since you might want to use a different proxy for each.
In this case you need to set https.proxyHost and https.proxyPort.

I must say, except for the Blockbuster shot, which was mildly amusing (although it feels less like a throwback to the '90s and more like Blockbuster is trying to make a comeback with a product placement plug), I think this looks pretty standard.
I don't know anything about Capt Marvel except that I saw a few eps of SHAZAM! when I was a kid (which probably means I don't know anything about Capt Marvel at all), but the Blockbuster shot was the only thing I strongly disliked about the trailer - it seemed like somebody revisited a shot from Escape from L.A. quality-wise.
Shazam? Uhm....wrong Captain Marvel and wrong comic universe Kmart!
Seriously though, they are making a live action Shazam. In fact, I think it is in the can and will be released next year.
Nice in-depth and broad based interview with the different vfx areas.
LOLA still has the best examples of de-aging out there. Take note ILM.

Seeking justice for missing children and unmarked graves uncovers 'larger' concerns
Kimberly Murray says an impending bill making Indigenous policing an essential service could make the process of searching burial sites much safer for Indigenous communities.
Raisa Patel Oct. 30, 2022
OTTAWA—For Kimberly Murray, many challenges lie behind the difficult work of crafting a legal framework that would seek justice for children who faced abuse and lost their lives at Canada's residential schools.
In June, Murray was appointed the country's independent special interlocutor for missing children, unmarked graves and burial sites.
For two years, Murray is taking on the heavy task of liaising with Indigenous communities to examine how Ottawa, provinces and territories protect and investigate these sites, with the aim of improving Canadian laws and making recommendations for a new federal legal framework.
Nearly five months into the job in October, Murray says some of those challenges are more sprawling than she first believed.
"The records are proving (to be) a larger concern than originally I thought," she told the Star.
While obtaining and accessing residential school records held by churches and the federal government have long been considered a barrier to achieving reconciliation, Murray said the issue extends far beyond those entities.
She's encountered cases of children sent to the schools, apprehended by municipal police for running away, entered into the court system and sent to reformatories, before being shuttled back to the institutions they first fled.
"This systemic interconnection of all these organizations and entities and institutions is much larger than I thought," said Murray, of attempts to lay out a clear paper trail in each of those cases.
The role of special interlocutor was first announced last summer, after ground searches confirmed the existence of hundreds of unmarked graves at the sites of several former residential schools. At the time, the federal government earmarked $83 million, on top of other investments, to research and locate burial sites, and to commemorate children who died at the institutions.
Since then, Indigenous communities have grappled with how to go about conducting searches of their own. As of September, 88 communities have received federal funding to begin that work, Murray said.
The former executive director of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission said the ongoing battle to access records — including those from local police services, hospitals and universities — is mirrored in the challenges accessing potential burial sites.
She referenced the recent example involving Sioux Valley Dakota Nation in southwestern Manitoba, whose radar survey at a campground in Brandon was stalled after the site's owner blocked access to the area.
"There's also issues with other sites that aren't necessarily where the residential school was located, but was associated with a residential school, or we know that Indigenous children got sent to these places," Murray said.
"Our legislation and our legal framework doesn't adequately address those concerns."
These are issues Murray raised at a meeting with federal, provincial and territorial ministers of justice two weeks ago, where she was able to discuss her mandate with government officials for the first time.
Murray said she hopes to conduct similar meetings with Indigenous relations ministers across the country as part of a wider effort to improve co-ordination between hundreds of Indigenous communities.
One of the topics raised in her discussion with justice ministers was enshrining Indigenous policing as an essential service — a topic Ottawa is hoping to address in the form of new legislation this year.
At present, Indigenous police services are funded through the First Nations and Inuit Policing Program, which was established in 1991. While costs are split between provinces, territories, and the federal government, police services are still regularly underfunded.
Ottawa had initially hoped to table legislation on the matter as early as this fall, a deadline that has now been pushed back to this winter. The legislation is expected to help reform the way Indigenous police services are funded, which would provide communities with full-time, culturally-sensitive services.
Murray said having a safe policing alternative is critical for communities wrestling with how to bring law enforcement into their searches.
Such police services could fundamentally change the way investigations are conducted, Murray said, including allowing families and survivors to actively take part in the process.
"I am always offended when I hear a Crown attorney or a police officer say, 'Well, we have to protect the integrity of the investigation. To me, that's very demeaning and disrespectful to the families and their communities because nobody wants to interfere with the integrity of the police investigation," Murray said.
"That to me is a buzzword, a white people buzzword, for 'Get out of our way.'"
Having legislation in place as quickly as possible would eradicate some of that mistrust, Murray said.
"(Indigenous police) weren't the ones taking the kids when they ran away and bringing them back. They weren't the ones that did the failed investigation when survivors were coming forward about sexual abuse," Murray said. "If we have First Nations police services, trained, properly resourced, with the ability to do this investigation, that could be the solution."

Ladies, sometimes you just want to look pretty! Dress shoes have less room to accommodate a bulky orthotic or have higher heel heights that require a different pitch to the devices. Lower flats are also a challenge.
And gentlemen, you get dressed up on occasion too. Those dress shoes are much slimmer than your performance footwear.
Dress orthotics have been modified with a slimmer and narrower profile to fit into casual flats and/or high heels, or slimmer men's dress shoes. This device does not provide as much control or support for difficult foot problems, but can help keep your feet comfortable for those occasions when you need it.

Insulin in a Pill? New Research Answers a Question That Has Puzzled Diabetes Researchers for 100 Years
TOPICS:DiabetesDrugsInsulinPopular
By Walter and Eliza Hall Institute January 24, 2023
Insulin is a hormone that plays a critical role in the regulation of glucose (sugar) levels in the blood. It is produced by the pancreas and helps the body use glucose for energy. In individuals with diabetes, the body is either not producing enough insulin or is unable to use it effectively, leading to high blood sugar levels.
Researchers at WEHI have solved a century-old question in diabetes research by discovering that a molecule other than insulin can have the same effect. This provides valuable information for the future creation of an oral insulin pill.
Researchers at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute (WEHI) in Melbourne have finally answered a question that has puzzled diabetes researchers for a century: can a molecule other than insulin have the same effect? The team's findings provide crucial insight into the development of an oral insulin pill.
They have successfully demonstrated how a non-insulin molecule can imitate insulin, which is essential for maintaining blood sugar levels.
The WEHI-led study opens new avenues for the development of drugs that could replace daily insulin injections for people with type 1 diabetes.

Researchers have visualized precisely how an insulin-mimicking molecule reproduces the activity of insulin to regulate blood glucose levels
The study answers a century-old question of whether it is possible to replace insulin
Findings illuminate new opportunities for the development of oral insulin mimetics that may replace daily injections by type 1 diabetics
People with type 1 diabetes cannot produce insulin and require multiple daily insulin injections to keep their blood glucose levels in check.
The new research confirms that alternative molecules can be used to turn on blood glucose uptake, bypassing the need for insulin altogether.
The study, published in Nature Communications, was led by WEHI's Dr. Nicholas Kirk and Professor Mike Lawrence, in collaboration with researchers from Lilly, an American-based pharmaceutical company.

Why is there no insulin pill?
Dr. Kirk said scientists have struggled to make insulin as a pill because insulin is unstable and readily degraded by the body upon digestion.
"Since the discovery of insulin 100 years ago, the development of an insulin pill has been a dream for diabetes researchers but, after decades of trying, there has been little success," he said.
The research has now accelerated dramatically with the development of cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), a new technology that can visualize complicated molecules in atomic detail, allowing researchers to generate 3D images ("blueprints") of the insulin receptor rapidly.
"With cryo-EM, we can now directly compare how different molecules, including insulin, change the shape of the insulin receptor," said Dr. Kirk.
"Insulin's interaction turns out to be far more complex than anyone predicted, with both insulin and its receptor changing shape dramatically as they partner up."
Mimicking insulin with simple molecules
The new research shows how an insulin-mimicking molecule acts on the insulin receptor and turns it on, the first step in a pathway that directs cells to soak up glucose when the body's sugar levels are too high.
The team performed intricate cryo-EM reconstructions to obtain blueprints of several molecules called "peptides" that are known to interact with the insulin receptor and hold it in the "active" position.
The cryo-EM experiments identified that one peptide that can bind to and activate the receptor in a manner similar to insulin.
"Insulin has evolved to hold the receptor carefully, like a hand bringing a pair of tongs together," Dr. Kirk said.
"The peptides we used work in pairs to activate the insulin receptor – like two hands grabbing the pair of tongs around the outside."
While therapeutic outcomes are distant, the team's discovery could lead to a drug to replace insulin, reducing the need for injections by diabetics.
"Scientists have had success replacing these kinds of mimetic molecules with drugs that can be taken as pills," Dr. Kirk said.
"It's still a long road that will require further research, but it's exciting to know that our discovery opens the door for oral treatments for type 1 diabetes."

Breaking Ranks With The Bears
03/16/09 12:18:27 PM
by Ron Walker
Is the market now breaking ranks with the bears? Recoveries are usually multifaceted, integrating candlestick reversal patterns, trend changes, chart patterns, indicators, moving averages, and divergences. If this is a legitimate turnaround, we should see evidence of it in several different areas of technical analysis, as indicators and price complement each other in an orderly reversal.
Security: $SPX
After undergoing ever-increasing volatility in price, the Standard & Poor's 500 currently looks to be sheltered from further price erosion. Piercing through its minor downward trendline has made it more resilient, and apparently, a youthful rally has begun. Figure 1 shows that the S&P 500 began to sharply decline during February, falling more than 200 points from its peak of 875 in mid-February to a momentum low of 666 by early March. By early March the bears had left the S&P 500 in shambles, trampling the index down by approximately 24% in four weeks. The bulls might be finally ready to wage war on the bears and reclaim some lost ground.
FIGURE 1: SPX, DAILY. Here we see that the southern doji of indecision put in the momentum low at 666. Followed by by an inverted hammer, another reversal pattern. Both candlesticks were confirmed as a bullish marubozu broke the minor downtrend. If prices rise above the 800 level of resistance they may continue a charge toward 875, completing a speculative head of an inverse head & shoulders pattern.
Graphic provided by: StockCharts.com.
In Figure 1, we see that on March 6, a doji candlestick appeared on the S&P 500 daily chart (representing indecision), which was followed by an inverted hammer (a bullish reversal pattern). On March 10, the following trading session, the bulls were in full swing when an extremely long white marubozu candlestick materialized. The bulls announced their arrival very boldly, as they penetrated through the minor decelerating trendline.
Now, if price rallies to new highs and then a higher low appears, the downtrend will have concluded for the time being. The marubozu candle has a long white body with no shadow on either end, and it is a cousin to the bullish belt hold candlestick, a prominent reversal pattern. The marubozu confirmed the inverted hammer candlestick by closing above its highest peak, temporarily marking the doji as a minor bottom. When a doji marks a bottom it is referred to as a southern doji, and when it forms at the peak of a trend, it is called a northern doji.
FIGURE 2: SPX, DAILY. The breakout of the bullish falling wedge busted through the minor trendline, rendering it harmless. Should the MACD get an assured bullish cross, the price will rise to challenge the intermediate trendline. The large divergence on the MACD should bolster the bulls.
In Figure 2, we can see that the intermediate declining trendline that began in September 2008 almost intersects with horizontal resistance near 800. This area will be a major road block to the index, because it is where the 50-day exponential moving average (EMA) resides, and it will take some maneuvering in order for this trendline to break.
Should the index break above the intermediate trendline it will do so at the 875 level, which could establish the neckline for a complex inverse head & shoulders pattern. A push at/near the 875 level would complete the head, with two left shoulders having already been completed.
There are certain bullish forces at work that may spark this rally to much-higher levels, near the intermediate trendline near 800. If the S&P 500 breaks the intermediate downtrend it will be granted the right of passage, clearing the way to test key overhead resistance at 875.
While the S&P 500 was busy turning in the opposite direction of the bearish trend and breaking out of a bullish falling wedge pattern, the moving average convergence/divergence (MACD) (12, 26, 9) began recycling up toward its signal line, creating a divergence with the price chart (Figure 2). The price target for any falling wedge is always the highest peak in the pattern, which would put the price objective at the February high of 875.
The MACD line is coming into close contact with its signal line as the indicator sets up a bullish realignment. The bullish divergence should push the MACD line over the top penetrating the signal line. The MACD histogram (12, 26, 9) also has a divergence with the lower boundary of the bullish falling wedge. Prices made lower lows while the histogram put in a double bottom, making an equivalent momentum low in January. The histogram may be the bellwether of bullish indicators, now that it has a rising slope that is making its way toward the zero line.
The next histogram tower should soar above the last histogram peak, breaking the declining trend on the indicator from the previous months. In addition, the average directional movement index (ADX) (14) peaked above 40 and is now tipping lower (Figure 2), indicating less volatility in the days ahead, suggesting that the current trend is losing strength.
Meanwhile, the negative directional index (-DI) has sharply fallen, further weakening the bearish momentum. The +DI and -DI are moving closer together, which should bolster the bulls, allowing the rally to flourish. The stochastic (14, 3, 3) is beginning to awaken as it rises out of oversold territory, the price reversal bolstering the stochastic line and causing it to stand on end and stiffen up.
FIGURE 3: SPX, WEEKLY. While the intermediate and the minor trendless are visible on the daily chart, we need the weekly to see the primary trendline, which is the upper boundary of this falling channel. Look for the MACD histogram to put in rising bars for positive divergence to be completed. Note the classic bullish piercing line, which is a two-week reversal candle pattern. However, the weekly chart's final print hasn't yet occurred for the week.
Figure 3 illustrates the weekly chart of the S&P 500, which makes a compelling case that the tide is turning. A large divergence has formed between price and the relative strength index (RSI) (14), along with the MACD histogram (12, 26, 9). Once the bars on the MACD histogram move back above the zero line, momentum should pick up, allowing the MACD to complete its divergence resulting in a fresh bullish cross.
Note how the divergence formed in the lower part of the gigantic falling channel. The stochastic (14, 3, 3) line is most effective at catching momentum when it begins to hook up on the weekly chart. If the stochastic turns bullish while the histogram moves back into positive territory, then the momentum indicators are in agreement. This should cause the bulls to snap up positions, creating demand.
As I write this, a bullish piercing line two-week candle pattern has formed on the weekly chart at the bottom of the falling price channel. This first week of the pattern has a long red body, which is followed by a long white body that at first opens below the low of the previous week but then closes the week out within and above the midpoint of the first week's candle. However, this pattern on the weekly chart is subject to change because the final print on the weekly chart won't occur until the market closes on Friday.
So the overall conditions for the short-term look favorable, but you can be sure that the bears will be looking over our shoulders at every point of resistance.

Tavi Gevinson Hired a Publicist, and Turned Down Appearances on Oprah and the Tonight Show
Though it devoted more than eight pages to her in this week's issue, The New Yorker doesn't tell us much we don't already know about Tavi, the 14-year-old fashion blogger who has become an industry figure as adored as she is polarizing. Some facts you may not know about the wunderkind high-school freshman:
• She turned down requests to appear on Oprah and the Tonight Show. "The 'Good Morning America' audience — I guess that's just not a crowd whose eyes I want on me," Tavi explains.
• She hired publicist Dana Meyerson, who is based in Chicago and also represents rappers Diplo and Rah Digga. The shoot Tavi styled for BlackBook came about after Meyerson pitched the magazine the idea.
• Meyerson is approaching Tavi's favorite labels, like Balenciaga, Marc Jacobs, Prada, Celine, and Chanel about advertising on Tavi's site. But don't expect banners at the top of the page: Meyerson is trying to get labels to work on videos with Tavi, along the lines of the video she did with Rodarte to promote their Target line, so they look like collaborations instead of straight advertising.
• She usually isn't paid for speaking appearances.
• Her mother is Norwegian, which explains the origin of her unique first name.
• Her room is just the "size of a van" with lime-green walls, a color picked out by her sister. Tavi hates the shade, so she tries to hide it by sticking pictures of people like Lauren Santo Domingo over it.
• She rides to the Salvation Army to shop in the "Gevinson family van, a 2007 Toyota with bits of trash on the floor."
• She drinks Nesquick.
• Some boys in her school pick on her. Lizzie Widdicombe writes:
In Tavi's homeroom, the students had arranged themselves in gender-segregated clusters. When she walked in, a jocky boy in sweatpants announced the results of what had apparently been a discussion at his table: "Tavi, we decided you were the first one to listen to 'Jesus, Etc.,' by Wilco." (Tavi is a friend of Spencer Tweedy, another fourteen-year-old blogger, whose father is Wilco's Jeff Tweedy.) The comment wasn't mean, exactly, but it singled her out. Instead of responding witheringly, Tavi put her head down.
But as far as addressing Tavi's longevity, and that segment of the industry which isn't really interested in the point of view of a 14-year-old and finds her front-row placement at shows befuddling, Widdicombe only touches on it. She mentions Anne Slowey of Elle's controversial and not-exactly-positive response to Tavi's review of the collections in Harper's Bazaar. Widdicombe also spoke to Elle creative director Joe Zee:
"Let's say Tavi's fourteen, versus someone like Cathy Horyn"—of the Times—"who's done this for x amount of years and can say, 'When I was at the Galliano show ten years ago, this is how it was.' Tavi can't say that, because she was four ten years ago."
Widdicombe notes that the fickle fashion world might not be so interested in Tavi — who now at 14, the writer describes as "curvy" — as she enters adulthood. Tavi responds:
"I guess that's sort of a worry of mine," she said. "That I won't be relevant anymore, and then I just won't be able to do things like go to Fashion Week." She went on, "If I lost all my readers tomorrow, I would still blog, just because it's a place for me to get my thoughts down. As I get older, no one will be able to do the 'Can you believe it? This kid's thirteen!' thing. That's fine. I'd rather get attention for any credibility I have, and if I don't get attention at all maybe that will tell me I never had any credibility. In which case I'll just watch the live streams. The main thing is the clothes."

Italy struggles to condemn racism, deep concerns in England
Footbal News
LONDON (AP) — Marcus Rashford felt exasperated to be spending the night before an England game discussing soccer's racism problem. But he was determined to do so, to ensure one day he won't have to. "For these issues to be coming up all the time," the England and Manchester United forward said on Friday, "it feels a bit strange to me, and I think the minute we can sort the situation out, the better it'll be for everyone."
Inter Milan's Romelu Lukaku celebrates after scoring his side's third goal during the Serie A soccer match between Inter Milan and Lecce at the San Siro stadium, in Milan, Italy, Monday, Aug. 26, 2019.
Manchester United's Marcus Rashford reacts after missing to score on a penalty kick during the English Premier League soccer match between Manchester United and Crystal Palace at Old Trafford in Manchester, England Saturday, Aug, 24, 2019.
Inter Milan's head coach Antonio Conte hugs Romelu Lukaku after the Serie A soccer match between Inter Milan and Lecce at the San Siro stadium, in Milan, Italy, Monday, Aug. 26, 2019.
Rashford had spent three minutes listening to his coach, Gareth Southgate, previewing England's European Championship qualifier against Bulgaria on Saturday when the news conference turned to questions on racism.
For the next 15 minutes inside Wembley Stadium, the scar on the game was the main topic under discussion. From the abuse players, including Rashford, have faced on social media to the monkey chants hurled at Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku in Italy.
"It seems to me like things have been going backwards rather than forwards," Rashford said. "I've always said that the more we speak about it, it doesn't have much of an impact. We've tried. "There's been examples everywhere where people have spoken out and I wouldn't say they've been ignored, but nothing has really changed. So, just to see it spike in the last couple of months, it's been unbelievable, so we want to just nip it in the bud while it's happening."
There was a torrent of racially abusive tweets posted within seconds of Rashford missing a penalty for United last month. "It is too easy to do what you like on the internet and any of us now can go on and create accounts and write what we want under anyone's post and no one would ever know," Rashford said. "It's easier to sort of figure it out if you have to show identification to create an account. That means everybody can only have one account."
Rashford was speaking hours after English Football Association president Prince William expressed his concerns about racism in the national game. "We've got to do something about it," the second in line for the British throne said. "I'm fed up with it. I'm so bored of it."
Others, though, are not so willing to speak out to condemn racism. Lukaku, Rashford's United teammate before joining Inter last month, discovered that this week. After monkey noises were directed at Lukaku at Cagliari, a group of Inter's own "ultra" fans defended rival supporters over their own player.
"We understand that it could have seemed racist to you," the fan group "L'Urlo della Nord" — translated to "Scream of the North" — said, "but it is not like that." The statement demonstrated the scale of the task faced ensuring Italy takes eradicating racism seriously.
Chris Smalling, who followed Lukaku from United by joining Roma, has concerns as a black player. "There needs to be a change, there will be generational changes and younger people will have a different perspective," Smalling said at his introductory news conference on Friday. "But it does happen, not just in Italy but around the world, and it is very sad and unacceptable that it still happens in these modern times."
Cagliari fans have a history of racism, targeting Moise Kean, Blaise Matuidi and Sulley Muntari with offensive chants in recent seasons. Inter was yet to condemn the abuse of Lukaku by Friday night, despite being asked for comment on Monday. And despite the video evidence, the Italian league's disciplinary judge said he needs more evidence before deciding if Cagliari should be punished for the racist chants.
League judge Gerardo Mastrandrea did not even mention the word "racist" in his weekly report on Tuesday, referring only to "chants that were the subject of news articles and TV reports." FIFA, whose president Gianni Infantino supports Inter, was careful not to directly discuss the club or Italy when asked about Lukaku.
"FIFA condemns in the strongest terms such incident," the world governing body said in a statement to The Associated Press. "Racism has no place in football." Even the European Club Association, which is led by Juventus chairman Andrea Agnelli, gave a generic response that did not name Lukaku after being asked to comment on Inter's response.
"ECA as an organization condemns discrimination in all its forms and has recently adopted a statutory objective to promote inclusion and diversity in football," the umbrella body representing clubs told the AP. "ECA encourages all football stakeholders to take any and all appropriate measures to stamp out racism."

British politics has been anything but stable in the last few years. It seems this uncertainty is set to continue thanks to Brexit negotiations and the stability of the current Prime Minister. Theresa May, who succeeded David Cameron as the Prime Minister after the EU referendum, has seen her authority diminish over the course of 2017. The purpose of this eBook is to analyse the chances of her staying in office beyond the next general election – and how her tenure could affect the markets.

Butkevičius: AWPL (Electoral Action of Poles in Lithuania) has joined the coalition
© DELFI (K.Čachovskio nuotr.)
Algirdas Butkevičius, the Social Democrat leader, said that Electoral Action of Poles in Lithuania has joined the governing coalition. AWPL will get one ministry but it is not established which one.
Before that, Butkevičius had said that AWPL would get one ministry and two deputy minister positions.
"We are satisfied. Of course our decision has to be approved by the party Council as the Council has decided that the conditions of our acceding the coalition should not be worse that the ones the Order and Justice Party had. As far as we know, the conditions will be a bit worse than we expected but I will not reveal any details", said Waldemar Tomaszewski, AWPL leader, on Tuesday.
It was also mentioned that the coalition intends to introduce changes to the Education Act which include standardization of the Lithuanian language exam.
PL DELFI reminds that, on Tuesday, AWPL has set the conditions for the party's entry into the coalition. AWPL demands that the whole country turn to biofuel and the local roads funds be increased by 30%. AWPL also insists on increasing the minimum wage to 1,200 Lithuanian litas by the end of 2013; finalizing the agricultural reform and making a complete settlement with the owners of the land nationalized during the Soviet period.
AWPL asked its partners not to block the projects submitted by the party. It is known that AWPL is guided by strict Catholic values, so it is in favor of the abolition of abortion and it is against in vitro fertilization. The party also wants the word "family" to mean only marriage.

A conservation easement bill that provoked strong opposition during a Kansas Senate committee hearing in February is headed to the Senate floor.
As of Monday, Senate action on Senate Bill 323 had not been scheduled.
Conservation easements often are described as a tool enabling a farmer or rancher to prevent development � such as housing or commercial buildings � from coming to land that has been in the family for generations. A conservation easement in Kansas typically is in perpetuity. The proposed legislation would end the easement with the death of the grantor.
It would not be retroactive, and would not alter conservation easements in effect on approximately 130,000 acres across the state.
Sen. Larry Powell, R-Garden City, is chairman of the Senate Committee on Natural Resources and the driving force behind the bill. The News was unable to reach Powell.
Rob Manes, executive director of The Nature Conservancy of Kansas, said only one state � North Dakota � does not have perpetuity easements. In North Dakota, easements can last 99 years, he said.
Conservation easements safeguard important grazing land and protect scenic natural areas, while the land remains in private ownership, Manes asserted in written testimony to Powell�s committee. He thinks the bill would effectively end the impact of a conservation easement.
Also opposing shortening the duration of an easement are: Kansas Land Trust, Kansas Chapter of Sierra Club, Ranchland Trust of Kansas, Audobon of Kansas, Pheasants Forever Inc., a Department of Defense coordinator and the Governor�s Military Council.
The State Association of Kansas Watersheds was the only group testifying in favor of shortening a conservation easement. It suggested the easement not exceed the life of the project requiring mitigation, such as a flood-control dam.
Individuals spoke out on both sides.
Agenda 21 and Rio Plus 20 refer to environmental planning efforts by world leaders and the United Nations.
Gove County Commissioner Mahlon Tuttle said he was glad his grandfather and father didn�t want to control future generations from the grave.
The Nature Conservancy of Kansas� Manes pointed out other decisions are made that affect land forever, such as decisions regarding mineral rights and water rights, or decisions to sell land for development.

Hulk for the Holidays returns!
Last seen celebrating Mardi Gras, Hulk skipped Valentine's and went straight to one of his favorite holidays: St. Patrick's Day! He's green enough he shouldn't fear pinching. Although, with few exceptions, who'd want to pinch Hulk?
Anywho, I made this silly little "novelty hat" for Hulk to enjoy for a week or two. In my mind, it's a human-sized giant novelty hat. On Hulk, it almost fits. Lord, I think waaay too much about these things.
That's about all I've got to say about that. I think that the picture says it all!
When I decided to purchase a fake tree for Christmas, it was a somewhat big decision since we live in a one-bedroom apartment and storage space is extremely limited. However, I had seen this post on the awesome Epbot, and felt confident that using cling wrap was the solution for us. And it was!
Since it's only a four foot tree I was able to do it by myself, and yes, it was oddly fun. It now lives in the space next to our washing machine – a place that it would not have fit if I'd tried to store it in its original box.
That's all! I know it's a crazy-brief post, but I thought I'd share a success story based on something seen online.

reboots Nov. 26, 2020
Saved by the Bell's Alycia Pascual-Peña Grew Up on the Original Series
By Jackson McHenry@McHenryJD
Photo: Chris Haston/Peacock/NBCU Photo Bank via Getty Images
The hook of Peacock's Saved by the Bell revival depends on a pretty clever joke about school districting. Through a series of zany events after the original series, Mark-Paul Gosselaar's Zack Morris has ended up as the governor of California, cut the education budget, and forced the closure of high schools around the state. This means that a bunch of kids from the underfunded Douglas High suddenly have to start going to school with the rich kids at Bayside, the home of the original series. Among them is Aisha (Alycia Pascual-Pena), who ends up becoming the star of the school's very unmotivated football team; bonds with Mario Lopez's A.C. Slater, who's now the coach; and ends up in a will-they-or-won't-they with Jessie Spano's son Jamie (Belmont Cameli). With the first season of the revival out now on Peacock, the 21-year-old actor caught up with Vulture to talk about her love of the original series, bonding with the new cast members, and what she learned from Lopez.
I feel like a lot of people your age probably experienced Saved by the Bell through reruns. Did you grow up watching it?
My peers my age are like, "Wait, I know that name," but most of the time haven't seen an episode themselves, but I grew up watching Saved by the Well reruns on the weekends. Prior to going into the audition, I remember asking my manager, "Is it that Saved by the Bell?" She was like, "I don't know how familiar you are with it." I was like, "No, I am very familiar with it."
Do you have a favorite episode or story line from the original, like the caffeine pills or something?
I love when Mario broke it down and got in a ballet-slippers-and-bodysuit moment. I also love when Screech and Lisa were dance partners and she had broken her leg. The musical moments were always really fun.
Did you know going in that Aisha was going to be a football player?
I definitely knew that I was going to be playing football, but it wasn't until the moment that I was fully in pads and on a field surrounded by nothing but boys that it really seemed real. But I loved those moments. I've always loved watching football. I was a cheerleader in high school, so it was fun to live that dream, to be on the field. Being able to explore this new sport and being a woman doing that well was so fun.
Aisha and Daisy are super-close coming into Bayside from Douglas, so I imagine you and Haskiri Velazquez had to develop that friendship pretty fast. What was that like?
We've had so many conversations about how we get to debut on a show that people are so familiar with and the fact that we're two Latinas from around the same way in New York. We probably got too close too fast! The day I met her was at the table read, and within that one day we spent 24 hours together. When we went to my fitting together, our costumers were like, "Oh, you get along so well, how long have you known each other?" We were like, "Oh, we met this morning."
As the show goes on, Aisha gets into a romantic arc with Jamie Spano, played by Belmont Cameli. What was it like playing that?
We have a lot of ridiculous moments with physical comedy, but it's beautiful to see the grounded moments where you see Aisha's humility, and a lot of those are with Bel. We get to see her as a multidimensional woman. She kills it on the field and is super-confident, but she gets sensitive and soft in a way that may not be expected. Especially as a Black woman, I've been so accustomed to only see Black roles and Black Afro-Latinx roles, when we do see them. I think it's cool to see all her sides, to get soft and shy and wonder whether to save face or text back to a guy.
Did Aisha change much once you were cast in the part?
I'm really grateful that our writers really committed to respecting my heritage and personal identity. I'm a girl from the Bronx; I do come from a family of a lower socioeconomic status, so I relate to Aisha in a lot of ways. They were always open to hear ways that we would make her sound and look like a real high-school girl. I speak Spanish on the show, and that was not originally planned whatsoever. They would just hear Haskiri and I laughing our butts off and speaking in our native tongue, and that became a huge part of the show.
You have a lot of scenes with Mario Lopez since Slater's a coach now. Did he share any stories from shooting the original?
I've personally gotten to know his family, and I met his parents, and it's been really inspiring to see how long his career has been. I don't think I fully fathomed that they started this when they were kids. I wasn't aware that they did mall tours and they had fans all over the world. Understanding how all-encompassing the franchise was for them was pretty cool.
What was your identity in high school? Is there a Saved by the Bell character that matches up with you?
We laugh about it because, in my personal life, I am very much more like Daisy. Aisha is always down for a good time. She's way more concerned with sports and looking fly than her grades, which is a fun side to explore, but I was not that! In high school, you could not find me outside the house unless it had to do with acting or extracurriculars. I was a cheerleader. I was part of theater. I was on student government. I was in International Baccalaureate. Aisha's much cooler than I ever was. The minute I stepped onto set, in this peculiar experience of being an adult but back in high school, I was like, "I like this version of high school a lot more."

Social capital is increasingly conceptualised in academic and policy literature as a panacea for a range of health and development issues, particularly in the context of HIV. In this paper, we conceptualise social capital as an umbrella concept capturing processes including networks, norms, trust and relationships that open up opportunities for participation and collective action that allow communities to address issues of common concern. We specifically outline social capital as comprising three distinct forms: bonding, bridging and linking social capital. Rather than presenting original data, we draw on three well-documented and previously published case studies of health volunteers in South Africa. We explore how social contexts shape the possibility for the emergence and sustainability of social capital. We identify three cross-cutting contextual factors that are critical barriers to the emergence of social capital: poverty, stigma and the weakness of external organisations' abilities to support small groups. Our three case studies suggest that the assumption that social capital can be generated from the ground upwards is not reasonable. Rather, there needs to be a greater focus on how those charged with supporting small groups—non-governmental organisations, bureaucracies and development agencies—can work to enable social capital to emerge.


Abstract Researchers in the medical domain consider the double-blind placebo controlled clinical trial the gold standard. The data for these clinical trials are collected for a specifically defined hypothesis and there is very little in the realm of secondary data analyses conducted. The underlying purpose of this work is to demonstrate the value and relevance of data mining and artificial intelligence methods for both pre-processing needs and secondary data analyses in medical research. The selected medical domain for this demonstration is autism and in particular the data from IAN (Interactive Autism Network) obtained from Kennedy Krieger. During the process of predictive model building, numerous research issues were addressed at different phases. Solutions were provided for: (1) Statistical issues with metric-based data mining methods and (2) Provide guidelines for how to incorporate domain knowledge in data mining. Various statistical methods used in data mining, such as Na�ve Bayes, require metric data to ensure reliable and robust results. Many public data health sources, including the IAN dataset, primarily consist of non-metric data in the form of Likert scales and categorical data. MDS (Multi-Dimensional Scaling) will be presented as method which can effectively transform non-metric data to metric. For incorporating domain knowledge in data mining, the initial work of integrating autism domain knowledge in multi-level association rule mining is presented. Through the use of an external treatment ontology, more interesting association rules were extracted for autism treatments. In order to further explore the role of knowledge guidance, the hypothesis indicated that knowledge-guided mutation applied to classification rules will affect the search trajectory incrementally. This hypothesis builds on the underlying premise of gradualness. A pilot and full-fledged experiments were conducted where knowledge from the autism domain in the form of a drug taxonomy and autism comorbidity semantic net guided the mutation of classification rules. The experiments for the drug taxonomy confirmed the hypothesis that domain knowledge can be utilized to constrain the search space. This research is both novel and significant as it provides a practical resource for health informatics researchers who want to incorporate domain knowledge into data mining and artificial intelligence models.

FRIDAY – Granite City @ North Iowa, 7:30 p.m.
SATURDAY – Granite City @ North Iowa, 7:30 p.m.
THIS WEEKEND'S PROMOTIONS: North Iowa returns home on Friday and Saturday night as we "Rock the Barn" against the Lumberjacks, courtesy of Coca-Cola and the Atlantic Bottling Company. Kids will be admitted to this weekend's games for free, and kids of all ages can meet the Coca-Cola polar bear at Friday's game. For a schedule of upcoming promotions, click here.
GETTING A DO-OVER: In order to win at least one of these two games, the Bulls will have to solve one of their trickiest puzzles in recent memory – Granite City goaltender David Mulligan. The Mounds View, Minnesota native has faced North Iowa six times in his career, including all three games on the Lumberjacks' home ice this season – and won all six. This season, he's surrendered just two goals a game to North Iowa.
STAYING ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF HISTORY: Once in a while, the Bulls have to go through a three-game losing skid – a sweep at the hands of the Lumberjacks, however, would mean virtually uncharted waters for the three-time NA3HL champions. North Iowa hasn't lost four in a row since the very genesis of the franchise. The Bulls dropped their first five games in the 2011-12 season before finishing 29-15-4, and have not lost four consecutive games since.
A TOUGH ONE: Wins against Granite City have been tough to get, but the Bulls have a real opportunity at home this weekend. The Bulls snagged a win and an overtime loss in their only two meetings in Mason City in 2017-18. The Lumberjacks have only lost eight games this season, including two in overtime. Every one of those losses has been by just one goal – in fact, Granite City has gone 53 games without a loss by more than a single goal. The last team to do it: North Iowa, in Sauk Rapids, last February 9, by a 4-1 count.
TOP PROSPECTS: North Iowa will be well-represented at the NA3HL's Top Prospects showcase in Attleboro, Massachusetts on February 18 and 19. Four Bulls players – Peter Verstegen, Joey Petronack, Jimmy McDermott and Ivan Bogach – were selected for the two-day event. Head coach Todd Sanden will also be part of the West Division coaching staff. He has been selected as a Top Prospects coach in each of the Bulls' eight years as a member of the NA3HL.

Historically, their range has been limited to the vast plains and deserts of North America. Their range today includes the United States and Canada (except Hawaii). They are found in all ecosystems: deserts, forests, jungles, swamps, farmland, plains, and sub-Filippida Everglades.
Due to differences in breeding times and Kyoto's general dislike of dogs, cod dogs are and still are rare. However, it turns out that people have tried to create this hybrid as far back as the 20th century.
In fact, there is a tendency for Totivachakans to breed Code Dog. Usually out of devotion and respect for the coyote species, they developed both coyotes and dogs, as well as coyote-wolf hybrids. By doing so, a much more flexible animal was born.
Coyotes can become homosexual with wolves, which is why coyotes are wolves. This offspring is larger than coyotes and code dogs.
They often enter suburbs and even urban areas. Their willingness to get out of the wild war leads to rare events where the two species meet.
Coyotes can pass for fairy street dogs. They have even been seen in highly developed cities, especially in New York City.
Hybrids of both sexes are fertile and can breed successfully in four generations. [3] Such interactions took place long before the European colonization of the United States, as the Melanostic Coyotes have shown that dogs brought to North America via the Bering land Bridge 12,000 to 14,000 years ago Black stones are inherited. The United States.
The Coddigs were carefully raised in pre-Colombian Mexico, wherever the Quito's were deeply appreciated. In Teotihuacan, it was customary to breed coyotes and Mexican wolves with dogs to breed resilient, loyal but good-natured guardians.
Native Canadians were mixing coyotes and wolves with their sled dogs to produce more flexible animals in the early twentieth century.
In captivity, hybrids are more naughty and less manageable than puppets than dogs and have less confidence in maturity than wolf dogs.
Hybrids vary in appearance but generally retain the coyote's adult sable coat color, dark newborn coat color, bushy tail with an active supratidal gland, and a white face mask.
hybrids are intermediate between dogs and coyotes, while hybrids are more diverse. Both the and are similar to their coyote parents in terms of hybrid shame and intracellular aggression. Hybrid play behavior includes coyote "hip slim".
The color of the population of non-albino white coyotes in Newfoundland is MC1R mutation
This is a medium dog. Code Dogs can weigh up to 60-120 pounds. They are usually 22-27 inches long. The specific breed of dog will affect its overall weight and size.
Normal color
The colors of this hybrid vary. They can be gray, brown, sable, and white. Code Dogs come in all shapes and sizes, as they will showcase the many features of their non-covered aspect.
Code Dougs has a double coat. A tight, thick, thick inner coat and a waterproof outer coat.
Grooming code dogs is no different from other dogs of similar sizes and hair types. These dogs do not need daily care, although you can check them frequently or even to get them in the habit of handling them for this purpose.
All you have to do is brush your medium or long coats whenever you are fit. Remember to start trimming their nails when they start to grow a little longer – about once a month – and check for signs of redness, skin irritation, or breakouts.

Artist Countdown: Talking Heads Top 25 Hits 6pm ET
Talking Heads were an American new wave and avant-garde band formed in 1975 in New York City and active until 1991. The band comprised David Byrne (lead vocals and guitar), Chris Frantz (drums and backing vocals), Tina Weymouth (bass and backing vocals) and Jerry Harrison (keyboards, guitar, and backing vocals). Auxiliary musicians also regularly made appearances in concert and on the group's albums. The new wave style of Talking Heads combined elements of punk rock, art rock, avant-garde, pop, funk, world music, and Americana. Frontman and songwriter David Byrne contributed whimsical, esoteric lyrics to the band's songs, and emphasized their showmanship through various multimedia projects and performances.
Critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine describes Talking Heads as being "one of the most critically acclaimed bands of the '80s, while managing to earn several pop hits." In 2002, the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Four of the band's albums appeared on Rolling Stone magazine's 2003 list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, and the Channel 4 100 Greatest Albums poll listed one album (Fear of Music) at number 76. On a 2011 update of Rolling Stone's "100 Greatest Artists of All Time", the band was ranked at No. 100. — Source: Wikipedia

Construction is starting at New Westminster Station!
|By Jennifer Morland
Upgraded station entrance off Carnarvon Street
New Westminster Station is integrated into the mixed-use development beside and around the station. As the neighbourhood around the station continues to grow and develop, the station requires updates to better meet the needs of SkyTrain customers. Construction is beginning at the station. Read on for important details about the project and what you can expect!
The upgrades, which are expected to be complete by summer 2016, will improve accessibility, capacity, safety and security at the station. The project includes:
Replacement elevator and escalators to improve access for customers.
Improved lighting and signage throughout the station.
Glass panels that replace the existing mesh screens to improve station visibility from street level.
Better integration with the surrounding community to make it easier to connect to and from the SkyTrain system.
Our top priority is the safety of the public, passengers, employees, and contractors. Due to the nature of construction activity, we recognize there will be impacts to the public, including noise and changes to station access.
Below is a summary of the key project phases and expected impacts. For ongoing information about construction impacts associated with the project, visit www.translink.ca/ontrack. Please note that timelines are subject to change based on construction activity.
Phase 1: East and West station access – spring 2015-summer 2015
Construction crews will focus on replacing the east escalator and upgrading the stairs, at the Eighth Street entrance, and the west escalator and stairs by the bus loop. Painting and the installation of new window glazing will also begin at platform level, and the emergency exits at the north and south sides of the platform will be painted.
Impacts:
Station access from Eighth Street will be closed. Passengers will be redirected to the Carnarvon Street entrance.
The escalator and stairs from the bus loop to the concourse level will be closed. Passengers will be redirected along McNeely Street to the Carnarvon Street entrance, or through the parkade to the existing moving walkway that provides access up to the concourse level.
Platform widths will be reduced in some areas to allow for painting, window installation, ceiling replacement and new lighting.
Hoarding in the concourse area to allow for new ceilings, lighting and painting.
Noise associated with large construction projects, including nighttime work with varying levels of noise while trains are not operating, is expected to begin in several weeks. Notifications will be sent in advance of particularly noisy work.
Phase 2: Eastbound and westbound platform access – summer 2015-fall 2015
Construction crews will focus on replacing the escalators and upgrading stairs to the eastbound and westbound SkyTrain platforms from the concourse level. Replacement of the south elevator, which provides access to the eastbound platform, will also begin.
Painting and installation of new window glazing at the platform level is expected to be completed in this phase.
Passengers traveling eastbound and westbound can access the platforms via the Plaza 88 escalators and stairs.
Passengers requiring the use of an elevator to access the eastbound platform can use the Plaza 88 elevator, by the cinema from the parkade west of the bus loop at street level, or by the cinema at the concourse level.
The north elevator to the westbound platform will be in service.
Neighbours can expect noise associated with large construction projects, including nighttime work with varying levels of noise while trains are not operating. Notifications will be sent in advance of particularly noisy work.
Phase 3: Concourse area upgrades – fall 2015-summer 2016
Construction crews will complete the replacement of the south elevator and begin upgrades to the concourse area.
Thanks for your patience as we complete these much-needed upgrades to New Westminster Station! For more information, including FAQs and information boards, visit www.translink.ca/newwestminster.

Sigh, live close to that station and for eight years it has been mayhem, now another year with construction, bad planners!


Middle-aged drinkers are being encouraged to have more alcohol-free days as part of a new health campaign.
Public Health England said those aged between 45 and 65 were more likely to surpass the recommended 14 units of alcohol per week.
According to the Health Survey for England published last December, those polled aged 45-54 consume an average of 17 units in seven days while those aged 55-64 drink 19.5 units on average.
Duncan Selbie, chief executive at Public Health England, said: "Many of us enjoy a drink - but whether it's a few in the pub after work a couple of times a week, some beers on the sofa watching the football or regular wine with our dinner - it's all too easy to let our drinking creep up on us.
"Setting yourself a target of having more drink-free days every week is an easy way to drink less and reduce the risks to your health."
Speaking to the Times, he added: "Our best evidence says try to make it consecutive two days (off alcohol) if you can.
"It's not a target, it's not to go mad on the other five days, it's an achievable way of thinking about how to manage your levels of drink."
A poll of nearly 9,000 adults by YouGov suggested people would find cutting down on their drinking harder than improving their diet, exercising more or cutting down on smoking.
The Drink Free Days campaign is part of a bid to raise awareness of the health problems associated with drinking and has seen the development of an app to give people "practical daily support" to stick to their days off from drinking.
Drinkaware chief executive Elaine Hindal said: "An increasing number of people, particularly middle-aged drinkers, are drinking in ways that are putting them at risk of serious and potentially life-limiting conditions such as heart disease, liver disease and some types of cancer."
The guidance of not exceeding 14 units of alcohol a week comes from the UK's chief medical officer - with a unit equivalent to a single measure of spirits or half a pint of average strength lager, and a 175ml glass of average strength wine equalling two units.
Whether you see having a glass of wine at the end of a long day as a treat, or just the normal thing to do, it's surprising how quickly you can rack up more than the recommended 14 units of alcohol per week.
And according to Public Health England (PHE), those aged between 45 and 65 are more likely to exceed the limit than other age groups. In fact, the Health Survey for England, published last December, found those aged 45-54 knock back 17 units in a week on average, while the 55-64 age group put away 19.5 units.
PHE and charity Drinkaware have teamed up on a new Drink Free Days campaign, to encourage people, especially those in middle age, to up their number of drink-free days each week.
"The more you drink, the greater the risk to your health. It's really that simple," says Drinkaware chief executive Elaine Hindal. "An increasing number of people, particularly middle-aged drinkers, are drinking in ways that are putting them at risk of serious and potentially life-limiting conditions such as heart disease, liver disease and some types of cancer."
While Duncan Selbie, chief executive at PHE, says: "It's also an easy way to pile on the pounds. Setting yourself a target of having more drink-free days every week is an easy way to drink less and reduce the risks to your health."
Many of us think a quick Irish coffee before bed or a soothing glass of red will help us get to sleep, but no. Drinking before bed is actually far more likely to lead to disordered sleeping patterns and interrupted kip. Try a couple of nights off booze and you might find drifting off a little easier.
More sleep = more energy, and waking up without a hangover means starting the day feeling buoyant rather sluggish, nauseous and foggy-headed. You'll be bouncing around.
If you're sleeping better and feeling more energetic, you're going to be in a better position to do the things that make you happy, and do them well. Also, alcohol is a depressant - without it floating around in your system, you should feel lighter and generally more positive.
When downing a pint is equivalent to scoffing a slice of pizza, and a large glass of red amounts to eating a 40g bar of chocolate, you can see how going alcohol-free a few nights a week could help slim your waistline too.
Heavy drinking can have a major impact on your heart, so reducing your intake means being less at risk of high blood pressure - one of the major risk factors when it comes to having a heart attack or stroke. While some research suggests a glass of red can be good for your heart, overall, excessive alcohol consumption is likely to weaken the heart muscle, making it tougher to pump blood around the body. This is called cardiomyopathy which, according to Drinkaware, "can cause premature death, usually through heart failure."
Your liver will be oh so happy at the prospect of fewer days processing alcohol. Excessive drinking puts a lot of pressure on the organ - which bears the brunt of detoxification in the body - and can lead to cirrhosis of the liver and scarring, which can in turn lead to liver cancer.
Including liver cancer, Drinkaware note that alcohol has been "identified as a contributory factor for seven types of cancer." The rest are bowel, breast, mouth, oesophageal, laryngeal (voice box) and pharyngeal cancer (upper throat). Also, if you're prone to having a cigarette when drinking, cutting down on your alcohol intake should see a decrease in your smoking (and risk of smoking related cancers) too - it's win-win.

Opinion: Attitude, Aptitide & Altitude: Why Muiz Banire Needs to Watch It; By Wole Arisekola
in Breaking News, Politics, Recent News
It is your attitude, more than your aptitude, that determines your altitude. Many people assume that luck plays a major role in the lives of successful people. I disagree with them.
I believe awareness, information and the quality of people you interact with, will determine the level of your success. Take for instance, not many people living in the villages will ever dream of buying an aeroplane. Many of them have never entered cars in their lives, so they have no idea who owns the aeroplane.
If you are in Europe, your first contact will largely determine how you will end up. The people you associate with will determine the type of job and carreer you will end up with.
I remember when Senator Ganiyu Solomon brought Barrister Muiz Banire to Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu in the year 2003, some of us were not happy because we preffered Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat. Hamzat graduated from the University of Ibadan and he was a strong member of the Muslim Students Union in his days as an undergraduate. He was known to be very reliable and inteligent. Muiz Banire came from the same Mushin axis with Dr Hamzat. He was made Commissioner for 12 years and Legal Adviser of the All Progressives Congress by Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu.
Muiz Banire was the youngest among us all. I was looking for an opportunity to become a Commissioner under Lam Adesina then but I was told by Baba Bisi Akande that Aare Arisekola was pro North and their party Alliance for Democracy was anti North.
And beside that, I was too young to serve under Baba Lam Adesina. So he directed me to go back to Ibadan and collect a written letter from Aare Arisekola that he wanted me to join their party, AD. The opportunity that Muiz Banire had in Lagos was because Bola Ahmed Tinubu did not place an age limit. We didn't have that in Oyo State. Majority of those in Asiwaju's kitchen cabinet then were young and intelligent guys. Last week, when I read it in the papers that Muiz was asking an imbecile like him how to defeat a godfather in Lagos, I wasn't surprised because he was only fortunate to be at the right place at the right time.
Some of us who he met in politics are still struggling till today. He was introduced to National politics by the same godfather he is thinking of defeating. What an irony of life!
But I think some of us are always guilty of overrating people above their intellectual capacity. When a Senior Advocate of Nigeria from the South West now needs someone like Nasir el-Rufai to teach him how to defeat a godfarher in the South West, is that not awkward?
Muiz Banire's paternity and academic qualification need proper scrutiny. I seriously doubt his Yoruba lineage.
There is a popular saying in ibadan that "it is easy to take people out of Mushin but very difficult to take Mushin out of the people". Muiz is just showing the Mushin part of himself and one can only pray he takes wise counsel before he emabarks on a journey of self-destruction.

The Kumon Institute of Education was established in Osaka in 1958 and attracted 3000 students in its first year alone. In no time, word spread beyond the city and new centres were established all over Japan. In South Africa, the first Kumon Centre was opened in 1991, and in 1992 Kumon South Africa began its franchising operations with 7 centres opening in the Gauteng area. In 1993 the number of centres was extended to Cape Town, and in 1994 we saw our first Cape Town centres opening.
In order to promote growth, as well as maximise the potential to bring Kumon to an ever-increasing number of students in South Africa, Kumon Education South Africa, (Pty) Ltd was established on the 1st of March 1997. It is a fully owned subsidiary of Kumon Japan.
Over 50 years' experience – a tried and tested company with a wealth of franchising and educational knowledge.

Julian Farhat on Where Do We Go Now?
The charismatic actor talks Nadine Labaki, religious conflict, and the hollow glamour of Cannes.
In heartening contrast to recent images, Where Do We Go Now? (Et maintenant on va où?) captures the Lebanese charm I enjoyed there in April. The spirit, food, hospitality, pretty women, appealing villages and landscapes, sensual music and dance. Julian Farhat, who plays lead Rabih, joined The Lumière Reader over a scratchy Skype line at the mercy of Beirut's creaky infrastructure.
With a beard that a Brooklyn hipster would rate, Julian has a prominent tattoo on his left arm: "That was a dark period I was going through, I did it myself." Formerly of many heavy metal bands, he's recently joined a new progressive rock- metal band ("with fusion of oriental and jazz"), who perform in mask.
Alexander Bisley interviewed Robert Fisk in 2006. Hours after filing, Beirut exploded again. 'Where Do We Go Now?' featured at the New Zealand International Film Festival earlier this year, and is currently screening in selected cinemas.


There are moments in your life that you hope will last forever... And for many women, their weddings are a day of unforgettable moments that will live on in their memories, cherished, revisited and relived long after the day has passed.
I always tell brides I work with to literally smell the roses, savor the menu they have chosen and cherish the fact that their family and friends have gathered to celebrate her and her groom on their special day. I want them to take the time to notice and enjoy everything about their wedding day because it races by and before they know it, the day is over.
The second thing I tell every couple is that it is their wedding, not their mother's or grandmother's. Of course, there are traditions that should be considered and elements that will make a wedding timeless. But it is their wedding, and it is perfectly okay to shake things up, make traditions their own, and make their own rules.
Here are my suggestions of timeless wedding elements that should always remain included in a wedding!
Marriage ceremonies are all about community -- friends, family, loved ones who come together to affirm and acknowledge your commitment to each other. This is the moment when your love as a couple is publicly celebrated; as all your loved ones witness your vows, they not only share in your commitment, they often find their own loves reaffirmed. It is a powerful gift to them, and to you. Family and friends are the cornerstones of who we are and will be a part of your new life as a married couple, so build your day to celebrate them, too. It does not matter how much you spend on your wedding or how elaborate the flowers are, what matters most is sharing the moment with the people that love you and want to be there.
More and more weddings are held outside of a church or religious house of worship, and the ceremonies themselves are becoming shorter. But the ceremony, no matter how formal or informal, makes a wedding a wedding. I firmly believe a wedding should be viewed as a celebration and a big party -- but those few minutes or that full hour where all the guests' eyes are on the couple are essential. The ceremony of union is the focal point of everyone's attention, and no matter what else you do, it is one tradition that is timeless and should remain.
Those are the five words everyone wants to hear. That first kiss as husband and wife is probably the one most significant moment in the entire wedding, the one everyone waits for and applauds. If you take away the ceremony, you lose the kiss, so this passionate expression of love is gone. Keep the kiss -- it is truly timeless! Who doesn't want to be kissed by the person they love most in the world?
There are numerous ways to celebrate the joining of two families, from a simple cake and punch reception to a full-blown party or something in-between. However you plan to celebrate, do it with style and keep that tradition going strong. While receiving lines are a thing of the past, the reception is usually the first chance guests can interact with the bride and groom, so plan some time for each guest to share a special moment with you. Then you, and your guests, are free to enjoy the fruit of so many hours of planning -- so mingle, party and celebrate together, in a magical party that everyone will remember!
I personally love when it is time for a speech, but only if they are tailored to around three to five minutes and get to the point, share a heartfelt story and give us as guest a little bit of history about the couple. Throw in a little humor and that goes a long way too! The speech is something that just should not be left out.
These five elements are the essential building blocks that make a wedding day magical. And one last thing: I also still believe a paper invitation delivered in the mail rather than an email sets the tone for the wedding and affirms it as the important rite of passage that it is. The bride will always be the centerpiece of the wedding and for the entire day, all eyes should and will be on her; the design, colors and flow of the day should radiate from her.
For everything else on your wedding day, I say break the rules, get married, say "I Do" and do it however you want. This is your day to shine and you should shine as bright as you want! You can break as many other traditions as you like, but keep the five above.
