George Griffey, Jr., Will Play in the MLB at Field of Dreams Game in Dyersville, Iowa, on Aug. 11, 2022
Cincinnati Reds vs Chicago Cubs
Dyersville stadium
Ken Griffey Jr.
The MLB at Field of Dreams is a recurring Major League Baseball regular season game played in the ballpark adjacent to the famed baseball stadium in Dyersville, Iowa. It was made famous by the baseball movie Field of Dreams. To make the game more exciting, baseball fans are invited to vote for their favorite team. In order to win a trip to Dyersville to see the game, fans can vote on which team should represent the Midwest region.
The major league baseball (MLB) organization announced that the Cincinnati Reds will play the Chicago Cubs in the Field of Dreams game on Aug. 11, 2022, in Dyersville, Iowa. The game is based on the movie "Field of Dreams," about a local farmer who builds a baseball field for the banned players of the 1919 World Series. The game will be broadcast nationally by FOX. Last week's game in Iowa featured a walk-off home run by Chicago White Sox's Tim Anderson. The Reds and Cubs will continue their series on Aug. 13 in Cincinnati.
In the top of the third inning, Nick Madrigal and Chicago Cubs manager Rick Hoerner met with Votto and Davis, and both players shared some stories about their careers. Madrigal, who missed the inaugural Field of Dreams game with the Chicago White Sox last year, said that he looked forward to Thursday's game since the start of the season.
Last week, the Reds and Cubs played in the inaugural Field of Dreams game, which attracted nearly 8,000 people. It was a record crowd for the town and the players were thrilled to have the chance to play in such a historic event. The event will not be repeated in 2022. But the city hopes to host another field of dreams game in the next two decades. While the stadium is still under construction, it has already drawn more fans to Dyersville than in recent years.
The 2022 Field of Dreams Game will take place in a different stadium than the original site, but fans in Dyersville, Iowa can still walk to the old field. Though the field will have windows looking into the cornfield, the players will still be playing with their backs to the iconic field. If you're lucky enough to get tickets, you'll have the opportunity to see the field of dreams in person.
George Griffey Jr., or simply Griffey, was an outfielder for 22 years in Major League Baseball. He spent most of his career with the Seattle Mariners but briefly played for the Chicago White Sox. He is widely recognized as a baseball legend. However, despite his enduring popularity, his career ended prematurely in 2007.
After being selected in the 1989 MLB Draft, Griffey struggled to make an impression in the minors but eventually made his big league debut on Opening Day 1989. In fact, he doubled off A's ace Dave Stewart in his first at-bat. His dad was a Reds player at the time and the two became the first father-son duo in major league history. His father joined him in the hall of fame in 1994, and his father was inducted into the same class.
He spent part of the 2004 season on the disabled list, and he was never the same player again. The injury put Griffey on the disabled list. The injury, which strained a tendon in his left foot, was unrelated to his hamstring problems. In the middle of the season, Griffey was traded to Cincinnati, which he considered his hometown. Though Griffey struggled with injuries, he managed to play 128 games in 2005. He was named the National League Comeback Player of the Year.
George Griffey is an American former professional baseball player and coach. He played for the Cincinnati Reds from 1973 to 1991 and was a member of a dynasty that won three division titles and two World Series. His career is notable for being a pillar of baseball and a role model for young players. His father, George Griffey, served as his coach during his playing days. The two men remained close until his death in 1991.
As a professional, Griffey was an All-Star and two-time World Series Champion with the Reds. In the 1976 World Series, he hit a career-high 74 home runs. The victory was the first of two World Series titles for Griffey, and the Cubs' Bill Madlock went 4-for-4 to win the game. He went on to win his second World Series and the 1980 All-Star Game MVP award.

If you think the words "retail audit process" refer to a high-stakes exercise marked by ambiguous data and confusing spreadsheets, we're here to challenge that assumption. Believe it or not, a retail audit can be empowering, especially when the technology behind it makes it easy to extract useful, action-ready insights and improve your stores.
While there is no one-size-fits-all approach to retail audits, AccuStore's mobile technology can help you carry out an audit that fulfills your unique performance and compliance goals – no spreadsheets required.
Assemble the audit team: Experienced, specialized auditors can help you uncover pertinent data and make informed business decisions. This audit team should understand the retail space and be aware of the unique challenges your stores face.
Identify all audit objectives: Establishing what to measure is the foundation of your audit. AccuStore lets you create a checklist of objectives that auditors access right from their mobile devices. Teams can add checklist items that correlate with every compliance-related business dimension and include scoring for quantitative analysis. Consider the checkout line: wait times under two minutes might receive a score of 5 while wait times longer than six minutes receive a score of 1. Applying numerical standards will help you compare performance over time and understand audit results in context.
Craft audit questions to minimize errors and inconsistencies: Speaking of context, getting good data often means asking the right questions. The questions you ask should be clear and repeatable. Clear questions help audit teams record accurate responses while repeat-ability ensures consistently relevant (and, therefore, consistently comparable) results across multiple audits.
Capture photos: It's hard to argue with the facts, and including photographic evidence with your audits adds visual validation to the standard checkbox approach. Wondering why your POP merchandising received a 3 out of 5? An image will tell the whole story, and AccuStore's mobile app automatically attaches photos to corresponding checklist items.
Measure, adjust, and re-audit: With your team and checklist ready for action, it's time to complete your store walk. The audit team will explore your facilities, collecting data and assigning scores in AccuStore. The best part? Our mobile app sends store data to decision makers in real-time, so there's no need for spreadsheets and more opportunities to make speedy, valuable changes at your stores. With established objectives and anytime access to past performance data, AccuStore helps you craft a repeatable audit process resulting in relevant, comparable intelligence.
Our technology brings speed and clarity to retail audits, but that's not where it ends. AccuStore's store profiles and mobile data management tools also help you conduct top-to-bottom site surveys and build sophisticated inventory plans. No matter how you choose to implement AccuStore, you will benefit from informed, data-driven management decisions that improve customer experiences across your chain.

NBA rumors: Darrell Walker a candidate for Pistons' coaching job
The Knicks assistant coach has a long history with the Pistons ... but that doesn't mean he should be considered for the job.
By Matt Watson May 5, 2013, 12:10am EDT
Share All sharing options for: NBA rumors: Darrell Walker a candidate for Pistons' coaching job
Beth Hall-USA TODAY Sports
So, this is apparently a thing:
Knicks assistant coach Darrell Walker is a candidate for the Pistons coaching job, sources say. Walker was a Pistons assistant from '08-'11
— Chris Mannix (@ChrisMannixSI) May 2, 2013
I'm not sure what to think about this. There's so much stink associated with the Pistons during Walker's recent stint in Detroit -- he coached under Michael Curry and John Kuester, let me remind you -- that I'd prefer to just wash my hands of the whole era. That's probably not fair, but I doubt I'm alone thinking this.
In addition to his coaching history with the Pistons, Walker also played alongside Joe Dumars in Detroit over parts of two seasons from 1991-93. Take that for what it's worth. (Probably not much; dude's been around the block a few times since then.)
Just for kicks, I searched DBB's archives for Walker's name. I found three results, including this nugget from 2009 summer league, discussing (the wrong) DaJuan Summers:
"Summers is a player and I don't know how he goes 35 in the draft," Walker said after Detroit's 86-77 win Friday at Cox Pavilion. "Things happen in the NBA Draft. I ain't crazy, I understand that but he's a legitimate NBA player. And I think he's going to get some legitimate minutes." [...]
"I am going to say this one more time: I never seen him play in college. I never saw his workouts. He's NBA ready. I'm sure he's going to going to have some knocks and ups and downs, but he's NBA ready. He's a player."
In any case, Walker does have head coaching experience: he took over the Toronto Raptors in 1996-97, just their second year of existence, going 30-52 as a 35-year-old rookie head coach. He was fired the very next year, though, after the Raptors opened the season 11-38. They eventually finished 5-28 under Butch Carter.
(To put in context how long ago this was, consider: in Walker's first year, he coached Marcus Camby as a rookie; in his second, he coached Chauncey Billups as a rookie. Walker also coached current Pistons assistants Dee Brown and Roy Rogers. Small world.)
Two years later, Walker was on the other end of a firing: he finished the 1999-2000 season as the Washington Wizards' interim head coach, going 15-23, after Gar Heard was fired. Leonard Hamilton was hired the following season, although Walker stuck with Washington in a front office position, beginning his journey of working in the background (as an exec, a scout, an assistant coach) while waiting for his next opportunity in the spotlight. (He made his desire to coach again quite clear -- "My goal is to become a head coach again in the NBA," he said in a 2008 interview.)
All in all, Walker has a 56-113 career record over parts of three years. Those numbers aren't pretty, but they're somewhat justifiable -- he coached an expansion team in its second and third year of existence, and he coached a team that struggled enough to get its original coach fired. It still doesn't mean I want him anywhere near Detroit, though.
In any case, when asked about the Pistons rumor, Knicks coach Mike Woodson made a point to stump for his assistant. From Steve Popper of NorthJersey.com:
"I haven't heard a whole lot about it," Woodson said. "All my staff should be up for a lot of jobs. You can print that because they're pretty good at what they do. Herb [Williams] and Darrell and Jim Todd have done a tremendous job. There are a lot of jobs open. I might need to get on the horn and start making some calls and promoting them a little more. I think that they're ready and the system has been proven that it works. If he's up for it, I hope they give him a serious shot at it."
Now your thoughts.
Update: Ha, I'm not alone:
@detroitbadboys no way

Saudi to allow Israeli jets across its airspace? 7, July 2009
Posted by thegulfblog.com in Iran, Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, Saudi Arabia.
Tags: America, Iran nuclear, Israel, Nuclear weapons, Saudi Arabia, The Gulf
Reports suggest that Saudi Arabia has tacitly agreed that Israel could use their airspace in any raid on Iran's nuclear facilities. According to the Times of London, Mossad's director Meir Dagan held talks with Saudi counterparts as long ago as 2002 over the matter. This is in addition to persistent rumors that senior Saudi officials met briefly with Israel PM Ehud Olmert in 2006. It must be said, however, that these reports are sketchy in the extreme and Saudi officials and analysts strenuously deny such accusations.
However, Riyadh and indeed the rest of the GCC may collectively breathe a sigh of relief were Iran's alleged Nuclear programme to be seriously derailed or destroyed. Even without any nuclear weapons Iran is already a bellicose and powerful country. Iran's threat stems not only from its relatively potent military but from the extent of Shia links in GCC societies. Such concerns are particularly apparent in Bahrain and in Saudi Arabia's Eastern provinces. Were Iran to obtain such weapons, aside from the elevated status that such weapons confer on the Tehran government, there are clearly fears that Iran would be yet more unconstrained in their actions.
Riyadh's staunch denials are not surprising. Even though there are significant differences between Iran and its neighbours, the Saudi Arabian government cannot be seen to be tacitly sanctioning an Israeli raid on a fellow Muslim country. However, the exigencies of geopolitical strategy and real politik are powerful, just as they were when Saudi sanctioned the stationing of hundreds of thousands of Western troops in their country for Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm in the early 1990s.
Indeed, it is hardly unknown for countries to engage in politically unpalatable acts if and when they are deemed necessary. A clear example of this can be found – somewhat ironically – in Iran in the 1980s when it had a quiet but close relationship with Israel against an expansionist Iraq. At the very least, this cooperation manifested itself in terms of Iranian oil shipments for Israeli arms. This is, however, denied by Iranian officials, though in the face of the available evidence this is more of a face-saving exercise than a serious rebuttal.
Today, however, with the threat of Iraq gone from the horizon of both countries, Iran has more of an opportunity to expand its influence in the region. This is the underlying premise behind Jordanian King Abdullah's 2006 notion of a potential 'Shia crescent' descending on the Middle East. Israel sees this very expansion as a key threat and worries about an undeterrable nuclear-armed Iran offering more and more support to its proxy militant groups in the Levant.
Overall, there appears to be a confluence of opinion from the South of the Arabian Peninsula to the Mediterranean Sea stretching across the Atlantic that favours a nuclear-free Iran. The key question is how far the actors in question are willing to go to achieve this goal. Vice-president Biden's comments yesterday maintaining that Israel is an independent country and can do as it wants have been widely perceived as giving the 'green light' to Israel to strike at Iran. Along with Saudi Arabia's apparent stance on the matter and a general GCC antipathy towards a nuclear Iran, Biden's comments tentatively suggest that a strike may be more a question of if, rather then when.

Spray the vitalizer onto the scalp after parting the hair in sections. Gently massage for one minute.
Natural products can also be allergic to some people. Test patch on behind the ear and leave for 30 minutes. Discontinue if irritation occurs.
Forest essential is, I have to say is one of my favorite brand. Their products usually perform really well on me, from their skin care to hair care products, they have all given me such amazing results.
The Bhringraj Hair vitalizer comes packed inside a brown color paper box and purple and beige stickers in thee from and back respectively. The stickers contain information such as product price, manufacture date, expiry date, how to use and some other information about the product itself.
P.S. Their showrooms are very well kept, smell amazing and the bag you get the product in also smells amazing! They always spray some perfume in their too and it's a very soothing effect.
The actual product comes in a transparent plastic spray bottle, with a golden rim on the top and a plastic cap. Usually ayurvedic formulations should be kept in glass bottles or silver to avoid reactions etc. but that would cost a lot, and it's just not feasible. Over all, I like their style of packaging their products. They are designed well and the feel premium quality. The spray bottle is very easy to use and your hands don't get dirty in the application process. The same stickers are put on the transparent bottle, so you can throw away the outer pack and still have all that information available to you, the good thing about the stickers are they don't wash away and the print doesn't fade either.
Consistency is liquid, and the formulation is non-sticky. Making this perfect for daily use, and wouldn't make you wash your head as often. You can easily wash your head whenever you feel like it.
Improves overall health of the hair and makes them strong.
It is paraben free and has only organic ingredients.
Note: * = The product never claims to help premature graying of hair, but that one white hair on my head, it's now brown in color even though I've never used any hair color. So I suspect it even helps premature graying of hair.
Whenever products I review are too expensive, I always advise my readers to 'shop-the-sales' unfortunately Forest Essentials is a brand that does not keep sales. However, they do have a card system where you can redeem points for money.
Be a little careful with the spray nozzle on your bottle, sometimes you can break it. Although it has only happened to me once out of the 5 bottles I've used till date.
I bought my first bottle in July 2015 and used it regularly and leniently all over my scalp. My first bottle ended quite early, in about 17 days, but I was already impressed with another one of forest essentials products. My hair fall had reduced a lot from how it had initially been. so I bough another bottle and kept using the product regularly, bottle after bottle. I bought my 5th bottle in the beginning of December and it will easily last me till January 2016.
But my hair, as I've felt have become stronger as compared to how they were before. I'm only starting to see fresh hair growth now, and I'm very happy with the results.
But my hair are down to 20-25 strands breaking off when my hair are clean (when the amount of fallen hair is less, you can count them) and maybe around 50 when I've not washed my hair for a week. I also noticed that that a strand of hair that I have which was always white since, has turned brown. My hair actually feel a lot stronger.
These days I only apply it onto my crown area, as my hair fall has already reduced, and I'm concentrating on promoting new hair growth. Once a week though, I still apply it all over my scalp after putting my hair in sections.
Great review. Never used Forest Essentials products. Will try soon.
It's great to see you around again! Forest Essentials, I'll say fits it's Tagline, "Luxurious Ayurveda". Their products have worked so well on me, that my skin care, hair care, basically anything that goes on my skin, face or hair is mostly from Forest Essentials. I'm glad for them!
However, they are quite expensive, but totally worth it! I wish they introduce having sales! I usually buy them online from Amazon as I can usually find coupon discounts on orders above "n" rupees. You can try that out too if you'd like!
I just want to say that this is the best beauty care/ cosmetic care review I have ever read. The amount of effort that went into everything you wrote is clearly immense, and thank you so much for it. Most of ht e time I have no idea what the labels in these products even mean, because I don't understand the words they use, or even how to just analyse the labeling itself. It seems suspect to me to just buy anything because it is supposed to be 'ayurvedic', and all these brands are after all businesses, so they are more interested in their profits than my health- I know, I'm a business major. I'll now be trying out this product simply due to your review, even though I use Forest Essentials hair cleansers and conditioners regularly. Thank you for taking so much time and making this much effort. I appreciate it.
I'm really thankful for your honest, and amazing response. I'm glad you think that our work has helped you and that it is the best, Thank You so so much!
Hi Jane, I hope you and Samara are well. I just dropped in to let you know I've purchased this scalp spray, and used it once. I hope it helps me 🙂 Thank you both once again for all the work you have put into this website.
That's great Aditi! I'm doing good and so is Samara. Do let me know how it performs for you, always remember natural formulations take longer when it comes to results and they're long-term.


Rachel Muthoga, deputy CEO of Kenya Private Sector Alliance (KEPSA), said that affirmative action coupled with mentorship and innovative financing is key to spurring growth of female owned start-ups.
"Scaling up women enterprises in Kenya through deliberate actions to increase their market linkages, develop their skills and knowledge and enhance their innovation will help abet unemployment, reduce inequality and hasten attainment of sustainable development goals(SDGs)," said Muthoga.
She made the remarks during a forum on promoting women-led enterprises as a means to achieve Kenya's socio-economic transformation agenda.
Policy makers, business leaders and innovators, attended the forum that explored innovative ways to revitalize growth of female owned start-ups as well as small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs).
Government statistics indicate that women owned 32 percent of small and medium sized businesses that have potential to transform the country's economy subject to a friendly operating environment.
Muthoga said that though Kenya has made progress in closing gender gap in the workplace, the attention should shift to entrepreneurship where women's representation is inadequate.
"We need to empower female entrepreneurs to enable them to become part of local and international supply chains. Our policy makers have a duty to ensure the regulatory environment is conducive and supportive to businesses owned by women," said Muthoga.
The World Bank's Women Business and Law report of 2018 ranks Kenya at position 71 out of 189 in terms of eliminating bottlenecks that prevent women from making a positive contribution to the economy.
Eva Muraya, chair of KEPSA gender board said that regulatory incentives are key to ensuring that female owned start-ups have access to affordable credit and markets.
"The financial sector should reduce the cost of borrowing to small and medium sized enterprises owned by women to boost their growth," said Muraya.

Where are the Newborn sessions shot?
These are shot in my custom built studio.
I want to book a newborn session when is the best time?
It is never too early to book your newborn session an ideal time is around the time of your 20 week scan to make sure that both you and baby are healthy. I book mothers to be in by their due dates, making sure a session is available a couple of weeks before and a couple of weeks afterwards, then I wait till I hear from you to say that baby is here safe and sound and we can get a firm booking in place.
The session is 3 hours (more or less), This allows plenty of time to feed, settle and change. not all babies take this time and im not taking pictures for all this time but it allows lots of time for food and cuddles should baby need it, I provide drinks and refreshments, I even have nappies and wipes to hand.
What if I have my newborn and want to book a session?
If you do come across my site after baby has arrived if you get in contact asap i will try my best to schedule a session for you.After 2 weeks it is sometime quite difficult to get baby into those curly poses and they are more awake and alert, so please do try to get in touch with me the earlier the better.
What if my baby is too unsettled and you don't get any good pictures?
During the session I will be using a white noise app which is similar to the noises from inside a womb and warming the studio to replicate the feeling of the womb, and most of the time this helps with settling. If it is the case your baby is very unsettled then we can try and reschedule session for another day but this hardly ever happens. Most newborns tend to sleep 24/7 so please don't worry in advance.
What if something happen and I need to cancel a shoot?
With my Newborns, the £25 booking fee is retained, if a newborn shoot needs to be cancelled it depends on the circumstances, if baby has been born poorly or very early, or if anything else happens the session can be downgraded, or if cancelled the full balance is refunded.
When is it best to have a maternity shoot?
Maternity sessions are best shot after 30 weeks and to ensure your session is booked for a date you want please contact me after your 20 week scan.
Can you get rid of stretch marks, spots, scars, baby rash etc?
I certainly can, I do not get rid of birthmarks and moles unless requested to.

SPORTS WRITER: Why I chose seeing the Cloughie statue over a cricket interview
Clough Statue Nottm
An international sports writer has described how he turned down the chance to interview a leading 'up-and-coming' cricketer – and instead chose to visit the Brian Clough statue in Nottingham.
It was back in June 2009 when Nottingham was hosting the Twenty20 World Cup Tournament at Trent Bridge. The famous old cricket ground was home to Bangladesh, India and Ireland for their Group A matches.
Among the Bangladesh squad was all-rounder Mahmudullah, who went on to become the country's T20I captain and scored their first World Cup century. But back in 2009, the sports editor of an international newspaper was not especially impressed with him.
Azad Majumder is the Dhaka-based sports writer for New Age, an English language newspaper in Bangladesh. He was in Nottingham to cover the World Cup matches that summer, but when the opportunity arose to interview Mahmudallah, he chose instead to see Cloughie in bronze.
Majumder has revealed that he was not particularly interested in the cricketer at the time, because he felt his form had been patchy and he was not consistently selected to represent his country.
While Mahmudullah made his ODI debut in 2007 during a tour of Sri Lanka, Majumder says: "it was those days when Bangladesh were struggling to find a right combination with plenty of youngsters in their limited overs side. Players got picked and dropped too soon, so I was not surprised to see Mahmudullah sitting out for the next six matches."
Despite scoring four consecutive hundreds in first-class cricket in 2009-09, the cricketer still failed to impress the sports writer. "This is perhaps one reason I refused to take his interview during the ICC World Twenty20 in 2009," recalls Majumder.
"Bangladesh would not want to remember the tournament, partly for their defeats against Ireland and India, though I had a lot of memories to carry from it," he says. "One night, while we were having a leisurely chat after our dinner in the famous Mughal-e-Azam restaurant in Nottingham, we saw a man literally running to us.
"He struggled to take breath before telling us that we just missed a story, as they had celebrated the birthday of opening batsman Shamsur Rahman in the team hotel. I did not pay much attention to him….
"….Likewise, when my senior colleague Hasan Ullah Khan Rana proposed me to approach Mahmudullah for an interview next day I did not agree.
"Instead of talking to Mahmudullah, I preferred seeing the statue of Brian Clough, former Nottingham Forest coach, who helped the club win two European Cups. I politely refused to join my favourite Rana Bhai to interview Mahmudullah and instead moved to Nottingham city centre just off Old Market Square to see the Clough statue."
Mahmudullah in action
Writing in the New Age newspaper, Majumder says his attitude towards the cricketer changed in his next England tour the following year. The writer and other journalists were waiting for an interview with a player after a training session at Old Trafford.
With their deadline looming, the player in question refused to speak to the journalists – but Mahmudullah noticed their predicament and stepped-in to give an interview.
"My respect for the player suddenly got very high and it has remained the same ever since," says Majumder. Nevertheless, his original visit to see Cloughie was obviously a wise choice – after all, Old Big 'Ead loved cricket and once said he dreamed of being an opening batsman.

Eco-fascism encountered/t resurgence: the natural environment in justifications of terrorist violence in the Christchurch mosque shooting and the El Paso shooting
Tablet in Kobersdorf marking the Reichsnaturschutzgesetz, (Reich Nature Protection Law of 1935). | Bwag/Wikimedia.Some rights reserved.
The murder of 51 people in Christchurch, New Zealand, in March 2019 has led to, for example, a gun reform bill in New Zealand and renewed interest in the notion of 'the great replacement'. Given longstanding debates in the United States, gun reform seems unlikely to happen following the mass shooting in El Paso, United States, in August 2019 which resulted in 22 deaths. However, the idea of 'the great replacement' did play a role in this second shooting too which undoubtedly invites further scrutiny. Both terrorists presented this and other ideas in manifestos which also thematise the nexus between the extreme right and the natural environment, what is sometimes referred to as ecofascism. In the following, it is this ecofascist dimension of their justification of their actions, which I will discuss.
Even prior to the Christchurch mosque shooting, media texts occasionally addressed ecofascism (for example here, here and here), but it was after the attack that the concept received particular attention (for example here, here and here). Similarly, already shortly after the El Paso shooting, ecofascism was connected to the attack on social media. Furthermore, the 'ecological component' of the Christchurch mosque shooting manifesto was noted perhaps most famously by the counsellor to US president Donald Trump, Kellyanne Conway, who, however, referred to the shooter as an 'eco-terrorist', trying to put some distance between the administration and him. Against this background, I now turn to a brief discussion of ecofascism before looking at the two manifestos in detail.
Peter Staudenmaier speaks of 'actually existing ecofascism' as the 'preoccupation of authentically fascist movements with environmentalist concerns'. Staudenmaier focuses on the so-called 'green wing' of German National Socialism, pointing to (the antecedents of) National Socialism's blood and soil mystique, support for organic agriculture and the Reichsnaturschutzgesetz (Reich Nature Protection Law) of 1935. Indeed, Thomas M. Lekan has characterized this law as the 'most stringent and comprehensive environmental protection law in the world'. However, the goals of autarky, economic revival and war preparations ultimately collided with environmental concerns and led to their repeated subordination. Furthermore, Michael E. Zimmermann claims that in addition 'to portraying ecological despoliation as a threat to the racial integrity of the people, an ecofascist movement would have to urge that society be reorganized in terms of an authoritarian, collectivist leadership principle based on masculinist-martial values'. In sum, ecofascism can be understood as a radical blend of ethnonationalism and authoritarianism, rooted in a belief that the land and the people are symbiotically interwoven, forming an organic whole.
Turning to the terrorists' manifestos, The Great Replacement. Towards a New Society We March Ever Forwards (Christchurch) and An Inconvenient Truth (El Paso), I will focus in particular on the former (TGR in the following) due to the particularly strong emphasis it puts on environmental protection. Indeed, TGR highlights the importance of the natural environment on the document's cover: arranged around a Black Sun, a circle is divided into eight segments. Each segment features one topic, one of them being 'Environmentalism' (others are 'Worker's Rights', 'Anti-Imperialism', 'Responsible Markets', 'Protection of Heritage & Culture', 'Ethnic Autonomy', 'Law & Order' and 'Addiction-Free Community'). Similarly, the manifesto's final page presents images of woman and man in nature. The manifesto published in the wake of the attack in El Paso (AIT in the following) is much shorter but it contains a substantial paragraph on environmental depletion.
Given the prominence TGR attaches to the environment right from the outset, it is perhaps unsurprising that the Christchurch terrorist, in contrast to the El Paso terrorist, refers to himself an 'eco-fascist'. More precisely, he describes himself as an 'Ethno-nationalist Eco-fascist', calling for 'Ethnic autonomy for all peoples with a focus on the preservation of nature, and the natural order', and subsequently argues for an 'environmentally conscious' society not at war with the environment – as globalized capitalist markets will always be. In AIT, corporations are identified as 'heading the destruction of our environment', pointing to, for example, overharvesting and the pollution of water. Importantly, such stances are not limited to these two manifestos, but present in parts of the extreme right – stances which offer grounds for a substantive (though non-universalist, non-Enlightenment) green agenda that is very different from mainstream-liberal and left-wing environmentalism.
Indeed, TGR reveals this stance in a section entitled 'Green nationalism is the only true nationalism'. It includes a romantic vision of the future, 'not one of concrete and steel, smog and wires but a place of forests, lakes, mountains and meadows.' Moreover, the section includes extreme-right claims regarding the symbiotic relationship between the land and the people, such as 'the natural environment of our lands shaped us just as we shaped it. We were born from our lands and our own culture was molded by these same lands.'
It is also in this section that the author positions his type of environmentalism (or, better, ecologism) in opposition to the left, rendering the latter's efforts to protect the natural environment inconsistent due to their acceptance of 'mass immigration and uncontrolled urbanization'. The former, 'mass immigration' and the protection of the natural environment, represents a classic topic across the radical-right spectrum ranging from anti-liberals to anti-democrats (for the United States, see here; for Germany, see here; for a critical perspective on this argument which focuses instead on social and economic factors, see here) – and so does the latter. Criticism of urbanization and industrialization is also present elsewhere in TGR and coincides with a celebration of the countryside ('already ours') where people are 'already close to nature'. Similarly, AIT points to urban sprawl that 'creates inefficient cities which unnecessarily destroys millions of acres of land'. Indeed, although originating in an increasingly urban-industrial period, or perhaps exactly because it did so, (ultra-)nationalism has long idealized the countryside and 'natural' life. As such, it has articulated the countryside as that which is authentic and serves as a bulwark against the materialism linked to the city. In TGR, this is visible too, and linked to a call to take back the cities, to heroically wrestle with 'the pollution', 'the cultural filth' present there.
Pollution and overpopulation are also present when the author of TGR turns to climate change. Based on his wider ecologist stance, and different from many other actors on the radical-right spectrum, he does not deny anthropogenic climate change (the latter is not explicitly addressed in AIT). However, in line with traditional arguments regarding the protection of the natural environment, the author of TGR links climate change to overpopulation by non-Europeans. It is thus by getting rid of overpopulation that he intends to 'save the environment'. Similarly, the author of AIT claims that 'we' need to 'get rid of enough people [and], then our way of life can become more sustainable'. Interestingly, this is preceded not only by a critique of corporations being responsible for immigration, but also by a critique of the 'people of this country' as being 'too stubborn to change' their lifestyle. Indeed, lifestyle features prominently in AIT – and is described as 'destroying the environment of our country (…) creating a massive burden for future generations'. This is linked to a critique of consumer culture which results in unrecycled waste.
In sum, both manifestos contain classic ecofascist thinking. Engaging with these arguments demands more than moral repulsion and/or ridicule. Indeed, one has to understand these claims within their wider, radical-right ideology. They are a particular articulation of an ecological perspective which starts from premises different from those shared by many contemporary greens and carries political implications not liked by those actors either, but which have to be taken seriously nevertheless.

Full Membership includes Civil Liability and Personal Accident cover; Basic Membership includes Civil Liability only.
Civil Liability cover provides members with insurance against being sued for negligence by a third party, e.g. a passer-by. A simple example is e.g. if you were to injur a passer-by whilst playing ultimate by throwing a disc that hits them in face and causes a serious injury.
Playing ultimate (or pretty much any sport) clearly carries quite a bit of risk, so its worth noting that this example would be extremely unlikely to extend to a player that was struck in the face by a disc, as the player accepts such things might happen.
The cover is for a UKU member playing any ultimate provided UKU would "recognise" it as ultimate (appropriate sort of disc, playing area, etc) - but there are some restrictions on North America that limit the cover to players in "representative" teams (e.g. GB).
The cover also extends to members that take on activities on behalf of UK Ultimate. The most obvious example is running a UKU tournament. And this in turn is a good chance to remind everyone that it is a requirement of the policy that all UK-resident competitors at UKU events must be members, and that non UK-resident competitors must be members of their home Ultimate/Flying disc federation, and are required to have their own liability insurance. For example players in Ireland receive this cover through their membership of the IFDA (Irish Flying Disc Association).
Clubs can now be covered by becoming affiliated with UK Ultimate. More information can be found here.
The Personal Accident Policy is only available to full members. The policy makes payments related to e.g. specific injuries (e.g. some specific broken bones) or hospital confinement. You can download the policy below. For more information please contact us.
It is not a travel insurance policy and will not help with costs if you need to pay for treatment in another country. We advise that you obtain a specific travel policy that includes sports (ideally listing ultimate) if you are playing outside the UK.

Derecktor Ft. Pierce Breaks Ground, Officially Begins Construction
Derecktor officials broke ground at the Port on Friday, November 13 during a small ceremony where federal, state and local dignitaries brandishing golden shovels, hard hats and face masks gathered to commemorate the historic occasion.
FORT PIERCE, FL – Plans to convert the century-old Port of Fort Pierce into a repair and refit facility for the global fleet of megayachts and large sailing yachts are moving full speed ahead.
After a lengthy permitting and review process, Derecktor Shipyards has been granted approval from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Florida Department of Environmental Protection, St. Lucie County Board of County Commissioners and the City of Fort Pierce to begin construction of its newest shipyard – Derecktor Ft. Pierce.
"This will be one of those places that people will be looking at worldwide to get their repairs, their work, their upgrade done, that's an incredible thing to say about what this is going to do for this community and we couldn't be more proud to do it," said U.S. Representative Brian Mast.
Derecktor has contracted with Shoreline Foundation, Inc. to develop a new haul-out basin at the Port by excavating a 220-foot long by 50-foot-wide portion of the existing concrete wharf and creating a slipway where the 1,500-ton mobile boat hoist will lift yachts up to 250 feet in length out of the water for service.
Construction also includes the installation of a utility loop spanning the perimeter of the facility and supplying power, water and fiberoptics; converting the aging Indian River Terminal into a state-of-the-art workshop; piping in a new high-hazard level two fire suppression system; repairing existing bulkheads; and a host of other necessary infrastructure improvements.
"This is a pivotal moment for Derecktor Shipyards and St. Lucie County," said Justin Beard, marketing manager, Derecktor Shipyards. "While a tremendous amount of preparation has already gone into this project, the real work is just beginning. There will be an increased amount of construction activity at the Port during the coming months as we prepare the facility for hauling operations."
Derecktor anticipates construction of the slipway lasting approximately five months. At the same time, the world's largest mobile boat hoist is expected to be shipped on December 1 from Cimolai Technology in Northern Italy to Port Everglades, then trucked in containers to Fort Pierce shortly thereafter.
Standing 85 feet tall, 75 feet wide, 120 feet long and weighing 738 tons, the machine is the engine of Derecktor Ft. Pierce and once fully operational, will provide an economic boon for Fort Pierce and St. Lucie County.
"This is so historic and Derecktor is going to put Fort Pierce on the map. I pledge to you that Fort Pierce stands ready to cooperate in making this and the whole port area successful," added Fort Pierce Mayor Linda Hudson.
Founded in 1947, Derecktor Shipyards has since become a worldwide leader for excellence in the construction, repair and refit of yachts, commercial and military vessels. Today, four Derecktor facilities span the Eastern Seaboard of the U.S. from Maine to South Florida, offering vessel owners and operators everything from marina space to megayacht construction.

Lehman Stock Drop Suit Passed Over By Supreme Court
The high court will not offer another review to the long-running case, letting stand a lower court ruling that effectively rejected plaintiffs' arguments that fiduciary breaches had occurred.
Reported by
John Manganaro
After the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals agreed with a lower court's decision that participants in Lehman Brothers' retirement plan did not plausibly argue that the company breached its fiduciary duty by keeping company stock in the plan when it was not prudent to do so, the Supreme Court now says it will not review the appellate ruling.
An updated docket sheet on the SCOTUS website confirms the high court will not offer another review to the long-running case. This lets stand a lower court ruling that effectively rejected plaintiffs' arguments that fiduciary breaches had occurred.
By way of background, in 2013, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld an earlier ruling by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York to dismiss this case, Rinehart v. Akers. That ruling was based on the presumption of prudence established in a 1995 decision in Moench v. Robertson. However, following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Fifth Third v. Dudenhoeffer, invalidating the presumption of prudence, the Supreme Court retroactively sent current case back to the 2nd Circuit, which then sent the case back to the district court.
Subsequent to a district court ruling and appeal, the appellate court noted that, while the Supreme Court made clear in Fifth Third that there should be no special presumption of prudence for employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) fiduciaries, "allegations that a fiduciary should have recognized from publicly available information alone that the market was over- or under-valuing stock are implausible as a general rule, at least in the absence of special circumstances." In addition, for claims alleging a fiduciary breach based on non-public information, the high court held that plaintiffs must plausibly allege an alternative action fiduciaries could have taken and would not have viewed as more harmful to the plan than helpful.
As in the courts' earlier decisions, the 2nd Circuit rejected the plaintiffs' argument that their case included "special circumstances," pointing to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) orders issued in July 2008 prohibiting the short-selling of securities of certain financial institutions, including Lehman. The appellate court also rejected the plaintiffs' argument that had the retirement plan committee conducted an appropriate independent investigation into the riskiness of Lehman stock, it would have uncovered non-public information revealing the imprudence of investing in the stock.
It seems that the final decision form the appellate court was indeed sound, as the Supreme Court will let it stand.

Molyvos, A World of Greek Wine in Midtown Manhattan
Staffn
Molyvos
NEW YORK – In a small, well-stocked cellar on Manhattan's Seventh Avenue, just a few blocks south of Central Park, beneath the sprawling, business-cozy Greek restaurant Molyvos, lies one of the greatest compilations of modern Greek wine.
The restaurant's general manager, Kamal Kouiri, gathered and watches over each bottle, all of them available to be poured for diners. "New Yorkers like to taste something different and unique," Kouiri says of his list, which transforms his restaurant into a stateside tour of Greece and its wines.
The backbone of Molyvos' kitchen, Executive Chef Carlos Carreto has been with Molyvos since the beginning, joining the team in 1997. Proudly upholding the integrity of authentic Greek cooking techniques and flavors, Chef Carlos learned the art of Greek cuisine in-house from Founding Chef Jim Botsacos, according to Molyvo's website.
Rising through the ranks, Chef Carlos worked side-by-side Chef Jim until he was hand-selected to succeed him to helm the restaurant. Now, Chef Carlos adds his own inflection to our traditional dishes as he executes the daily menus and develops new recipes.
Inspired by the traditions and heritage of the Greek islands and mainland, Molyvos has been one of New York's most beloved Greek restaurants since its opening in 1997. Named after the seaside village on the Greek island of Lesvos where the Livanos family roots originate, Molyvos is known throughout Manhattan for its rustic Greek country cooking.
Executive Chef Carlos Carreto takes diners on a Grecian culinary journey through a variety of mezedes and appetizers, as well as hyper-local specialty Greek cheese and honey, fresh fish, wild greens and savory pies – all accompanied by the largest all-Greek wine list in the U.S.
Molyvos is proud to have won numerous awards, including Wine Enthusiast's "100 Best Wine Restaurants" in 2015 and 2016 as well as making their "Five Best Wine Bars in New York City."
Celebrating the lifestyle and food that represents the delicious, healthful way that people in Greece eat, Molyvos' main goal is to bring filoxenia – the Greek style of hospitality – to the heart of New York City. The warm, friendly service makes guests feel as if they're in a Greek home, and the food forms a paean to the variety and seasonality inherent in Greek cuisine.
Nestled in Manhattan's Midtown West neighborhood, just a block away from Carnegie Hall, Molyvos was a pioneer when it first opened, bringing rustic Greek cuisine to a new level of elegance and sophistication amid decor inspired by Greece's romantic seaside villages. It has held fast to that vision for nearly two decades, serving innovative but authentic Greek fare that continues to evolve today.

U.S. Digital Ad Revenues Surpassed the US$100 Billion Mark for the First Time in 2018
By Editorial Staff @portada_online 05/07/2019
What: U.S. Digital Ad revenues surpass US$100 billion mark for the first time, hitting landmark US$107.5 billion in 2018, according to IAB Internet Advertising Revenue Report.
Why it matters: Record-breaking Digital Marketing spend represents 22% year-over-year growth.
U.S. digital advertising revenues in 2018 reached an all-time historic high of US$107.5 billion—exceeding the US$100 billion mark for the first time—according to the latest IAB Internet Advertising Revenue Report released by IAB and prepared by PwC US. This full-year 2018 total represents a 22 percent year-over-year increase from US$88.3 billion in 2017.
Mobile and video continue to lead digital marketing's steady growth. Accounting for nearly two-thirds (65%) of 2018's internet ad revenues, mobile reached US$69.9 billion, up 40 percent from the previous year at $50.1 billion. Advertising revenues from digital video saw the largest rise among all formats—an uptick of 37 percent—catapulting to US$16.3 billion in 2018 from US$11.9 billion in 2017.
As audiences have shifted away from traditional media, digital has been a dominant force in capturing their attention—first from desktop to mobile devices and more recently to connected TV, smart speakers, and digital out-of-home.
The report analyzes the drivers behind the dramatic growth, identifying that revenue stemming from eCommerce, including the emergence of the direct brand economy, has played a key role. With the rise of "social stories" as a tool to connect with today's consumers, social media was also pinpointed as motivating factor in significant investment—with storytelling now catching fire across platforms and brands. In addition, technological advances, ranging from virtual reality to voice to 5G, were recognized as drivers and expected contributors to a continued robust advertising environment.
Other highlights from the report include:
Digital video on mobile devices continued its momentum, reaching US$10.2 billion in full-year 2018, a 65% rise from full-year 2017 at US$6.2 billion
Digital video ad revenues on mobile devices comprised 63% of all digital video ad revenues in 2018, up from 52% in the prior year.
Digital audio advertising grew 23% to reach US$2.3 billion, outpacing last year's full-year revenue of US$1.8 billion
Social media revenue rose to US$29 billion in 2018, an increase of 31% from US$22.1 billion in the previous year
"Surpassing US$100 billion in annual revenue is a watershed moment for the digital advertising ecosystem—one built on its power to build direct relationships between brands and today's consumers," said Randall Rothenberg, CEO, IAB. "Innovative platforms like over-the-top television, podcasts, virtual reality, and augmented reality all have the potential to help marketers forge even stronger ties with audiences, as brands navigate the new 'consumer first' playing field."
"Digital marketing has unequivocally secured the lead in media market share, just as it has taken the lead in consumer mindshare," said Anna Bager, Executive Vice President of Industry Initiatives, IAB. "As audiences have shifted away from traditional media, digital has been a dominant force in capturing their attention—first from desktop to mobile devices and more recently to connected TV, smart speakers, and digital out-of-home."
"Advertisers are placing a premium on mobile and video, and in turn the two are fueling the ongoing rise of digital marketing," said Sue Hogan, Senior Vice President, Research and Measurement, IAB. "And the 5G promise of lightning fast speed and decreased latency presents opportunities for businesses and consumers alike: a smoother user experience, which could further consumer ease with use and frequency of ecommerce on small screens; and it would allow for greater innovation in ad formats. As companies prepare for 5G—and its rollout gains momentum—we can anticipate even more healthy digital growth."
"Year after year, brands have been increasing their commitment to digital as a primary channel to reach consumers," said David Silverman, Partner, PwC US. "The analysis in this report highlights important drivers and trends that could influence interactive's trajectory in the years to come, as marketers look to new formats and technologies to help them connect with consumers."
IAB sponsors the IAB Internet Advertising Revenue Report, which is conducted independently by the New Media Group of PwC. The results are considered a reasonable measurement of interactive advertising revenues because the data is compiled directly from information supplied by companies selling advertising on the internet. The survey includes data concerning online advertising revenues from web sites, commercial online services, free email providers, and all other companies selling online advertising.

Supreme Air Force 1 (2023) – Review, Features and Opinion
Are you a sneakerhead? A fan of Nike Air Force One wondering whether Supreme Air Force 1 is worth a shot or just contemplating adding a cool pair of sneakers to your wardrobe? Then you have come to the right place!
Nike shoes are a well-placed niche in the industry that rightly deserves its name. Consecutively, Nike Air Force 1 is Nike's most popular pair of shoes. It's a basketball sneaker that was originally launched in 1982. With its design, shape, and comfort, it has a home in a lot of people's hearts. This is where the collaboration of Supreme with Nike comes in! Supreme collaborated with Nike on their Air Force Ones and got a lot of people wondering if it is worth buying or not. This is where we have got you covered! Read through our article to find out!
1. Supreme Air Force 1
Nike Mens Air Force 1 Low CU9225 001 Supreme - Mini Box Logo Black - Size 6
More often than not, brand names sell. We could be buying a Gucci belt just to say it's a Gucci belt. But you don't make that mistake! And we are here to help you decide if you should be buying these truly for what they are and not just for what they represent! While we have focused on the looks and its notable features, we have also focused on its functionality and how well it fulfills its purpose!
The Supreme and Nike collaboration for the Supreme Air Force One is one of the well-sought-after brand collaborations. One of the notable features of this Nike x Supreme Air Force 1 collaboration is that the brands have amalgamated their designs without taking away anything from the original Air Force Ones. They are well known for their style and the most popular shoes from Nike. Owing to their popularity, they have had collaborations with other brands as well. However, this Supreme Air Force One collab stands out with its minimalistic style.
There are a few notable changes with this Supreme Air force low shoe. The Supreme red box logo is embossed near the heel area of the shoe. Right below is the air logo that marks the authenticity of the shoe. This is a low-top shoe that comes in two different colors; black and white. The white ones come along with the white laces and red laces that have the Supreme logo on white. Contrary to this, the black Supreme Air Force One has black laces with the Supreme logo on white.
The choice between white Nike x Supreme Air Force 1 is a matter of personal preference. The white pair has a simple, minimalistic, and classic look while the black pair has a classy, upmarket, and cool look. The Nike and Supreme Air Force One collection can be comfortably worn as daily casual wear or you can save this for special occasions.
Usually, collaborations ruin the original design with over-the-top hyped-up additions that strays far away from being iconic. However, the Supreme did no such thing. The best part about this Supreme Air Force One is it is retaining the best parts of the original Air Force One design. It has a sleek, modest yet fancy style that everyone loves and adores.
Enough about its looks, let's talk about its functionality. This Supreme Air Force One pair is comfortable to be worn all day long. They have well-spaced perforations so that your feet don't suffocate in their confines! The outer is made of leather and delivers a shining, sleek look that catches eyes. The inner lining is made of polyester and the cushioning ensures your comfort. The rubber outsole ensures excellent traction as well.

Q: Working with TreeMaps (21.9- Intro to Java, Liang, 10th Edition) I'm supposed to write a program that returns the capital of a given state in the U.S. using TreeMaps. However, the program returns null when I run it, before I even get a chance to input anything. Can someone tell me what's wrong?
public class Map {

  private TreeMap<String, String> pairs;

  public Map() {
    pairs = new TreeMap<String, String>();
  }

  public void readFrom(String fileName) {
    Scanner input = null;
    try {
        input = new Scanner(new File(fileName));
    } catch (Exception ex) {
        ex.printStackTrace();
        System.exit(-1);
    }

    while (input.hasNext(" , ")) {
        pairs.put(input.next(), input.next());
    }
  }

  public String get(String key) {
    return pairs.get(key);
  }

}

public static void main(String[] args) {

    Map USA = new Map();
    USA.readFrom("states_and_capitals.txt");

    System.out.print("Enter a state: ");
    Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
    System.out.println(USA.get(input.toString()));
}

The text file that the program reads from, "states_and_capitals.txt", is formatted such that on each line there's a state and its capital, separated by a comma (no spaces), like so:
Alabama,Montgomery
Alaska,Juneau
Arizona,Phoenix
etc.

A: Check this, I fix the part where you read from text file and populate the TreeMap. I tested and works fine.
public class Map {

    private TreeMap<String, String> pairs;

    public Map() {
        pairs = new TreeMap<String, String>();
    }

    public void readFrom(String fileName) {
        try {
            Scanner input = new Scanner(new File(fileName));
            while (input.hasNextLine()) {
                String [] parts = input.nextLine().split(",");
                if (parts.length == 2)
                    pairs.put(parts[0], parts[1]);
            }
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
            System.exit(-1);
        }
    }

    public String get(String key) {
        return pairs.get(key);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Map USA = new Map();
        USA.readFrom("states_and_capitals.txt");

        System.out.print("Enter a state: ");
        Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.println(USA.get(input.nextLine()));
    }
}

A: For reading String input using scanner you should use below
scanner.nextLine();

So in your code you should do
System.out.print("Enter a state: ");
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
String stateName=input.nextLine();
System.out.println(USA.get(stateName));

Use Enter after giving input as statename.

Blu-Ray Review: Shout Factory's To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar (Shout Select)
Adam finds Shout Factory's Blu-Ray Edition of To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar as funny and fresh as the film was when released twenty-five years ago. Or in simply put; FABULOUS!
A huge title deserves huge personalities, laughs, and heart. The Amblin Produced To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar has all that and more. Thanks in large part to the trifecta of comedic ace performances by Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes, and John Leguizamo. To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar is the type of comedy we rarely get nowadays. One rather than being made for everyone is made for a singular group, and by default becomes universal. In 2019, I highly doubt a film about Drag Queens would be made by a major studio, and also be allowed to be this funny.
To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar is your basic road trip movie, instead of Hope & Crosby you get Vida (Swayze), Noxeema (Snipes), and Chi-Chi (Leguizamo) all Drag Queens in the various stages of their lives. Vida is coming to an age where she is going to need to settle down. Noxeema is in the prime of her life and career. Finally, Chi-Chi has just started her journey in finding herself. Vida and Noxi are long term friends who take Chi-Chi under their wings and with them from New York to the sunny land of Dream; Hollywood. What begins as a road trip quickly turns into an adventure with racist homophobic sheriffs (Chris Penn), a small town with a troubled population filled with the likes of Blythe Danner, Stockard Channing, Jason London and Others, and a broken car. Before one begins to think this gets super serious, it does not. Actually, that is To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar strength. It's ability like Vida, Maxi and Chi-Chi to make everything lighter than air and of course fabulous.
Much of the delight of this film is how its trio of leads never blinks or makes their characters anything less than complex, funny, and heartfelt humans. The impulse, especially in the '90s, would have been to lean into the joke. Thankfully writer Douglas Beane and Director Beeban Kidron have no such intention. They allow the comedy come from the characters rather than forcing it. Through this it allows the characters to be human and have not just laughs but moments of true emotion and heart. When Vida and Chi-Chi have a blow up, it's a true knock-down-drag-out fight that isn't played for laughs. It's that kind of considered writing that makes the film so special. Kidron's direction is always sensitive but manages to be colorful and broad when the moment calls for it. It is Kidron's unforced touch that makes all the difference, never playing for the joke or the emotional beat.
Swayze, Snipes, and Leguizamo all do special work here. They all uniquely make Vida, Noxeema, and Chi-Chi not only real humans and comedic forces to recon with. Those two counter-points are never easy to pull off one by themselves let alone together. Swayze is the heart of the picture playing for the most part the "straight person" (no pun intended) for the more flamboyant performances of Snipes and Leguizamo. It is still a marvel after more than a quarter century later that at the height of his career Wesley Snipes played the role of Noxeema. Furthermore, the actor played Noxeema with the precision and intelligence that no other actor could bring. There's a confidence and strength that Snipes brings that internally plays through out that makes the performance shine even when Noxeema is in the background. The star and scene stealer supreme is Leguizamo's Chi-Chi. Leguizamo is unleashed to do whatever his comedic heart desires as the young Fast Talking Woman. He makes Chi-Chi both an annoying teenager and a feisty angry woman lost trying to find her direction. Together they work as a comedic three-headed-hydra that gets maximum laughter and heart from an audience not from jokes at their expense but because of the situations they find themselves in.
To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar is hands down as great a comedy produced in the '90s. The points that make it so special are beyond the laughs and the humanity that the film treats all its characters with. Rarely have we gotten a drama, let alone comedies that feel as positive and joyous as this one about the LBGTQ community produced in the last twenty five years. Even rarer still a LBGTQ film that was produced by a Major Studio and Producer (Steven Spielberg)… To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar goes beyond what many would say is its audience and finds commonality for everyone. Therein lays its power and its ability to age as gracefully as it has.
The folks at Shout Factory and Universal have treated the film correctly giving it the bright poppy transfer it deserves. The transfer accurately represents the greens of the Midwest along with the colorful outfits everyone seems to wear throughout the film. The grain structure is perfect giving the transfer a more filmic look.
They include the following:
Easy Rider In Dresses: A Look Back At The Making Of To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar
Theatrical Trailers
Easy Rider in Dresses: The Making of To Wong Foo – is a 52-minute featurette with Screenwriter Douglas Carter Bean, Director Beeban Kidron, and Star John Leguizamo along with some great B-Roll video footage. Starting with Bean creating the spec script to the development to casting and finally production this making of is a comprehensive look back at this unique and hilarious film. Interesting tidbits includes Wesley Snipes wanted to be in the film and actively pursued the role, a fight that broke out between Swayze and Leguizamo, how Robin Williams got involved and how he took two days from one day, the time spent on makeup and costume, and how Steven Spielberg helped the production in unexpected ways.
Deleted scenes amount to 15-minutes and 11 scenes. Though highly entertaining, but rightfully cut from the film. Though the first scene does describe how they get the picture that creates the title of the film. Much of these are extended scenes.
Rounding out the extras are the Theatrical Trailer, a TV Spot, VHS promo, and a Soundtrack Ad. Talk about fun. These Ads are hilarious and great. The VHS Promo made for retailers, which gives the hard sell for the movie and it's funny how they try to sell, not to mention kinda racist (well very racist) when they call Leguizamo "Homeboy", still trying to figure that one out.
The Final Thought
To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar is a comedy classic. Shout Factory has treated it as such giving it a marvelous transfer and fabulous extras. HIGHEST POSSIBLE RECOMMENDATIONS!!!!

Leaf traits and chemicals from tree species in the Gutianshan Nature Reserve, including secondary compound (total phenolic and tannin concentrations) and information on stomata.
Leaf samples were taken from sun-exposed branches with an expandable pruner. Only completely developed leaves were sampled, without visible herbivore damage and preferably free of leaf fungi. Seven leaves were collected per individual and the majority of species was sampled in five to seven CSPs. Every species was sampled only from one individual per CSP. Rare species that occurred with less than five individuals in all CSPs had a correspondingly lower number of replicates.

Mind that young and old leaves were sampled. For aggregated traits you may want to use old leaves only or aggregate first within both age classes and then average again.
Original file, species names partly incorrect, metadata distributed in custom way accross several sheets and rows.
Gives information about the vegetative Period in which the sampled leaf was collected: "young" leaves were produced in the present vegetation period. "old" leaves are from previous vegetation periods.

Amara La Negra Wiki: Bio & Facts About Her Life
Julian BIOGRAPHY
Amara La Negra is a Dominican artist popularly known for starring in the hit show Love & Hip Hop: Miami which started airing on January 2018. She stars alongside Trina, Trick Daddy, Gunplay, Veronica Vega, Christopher Michael Harty, Jojo Zarur, Shay Johnson and others.
Amara was born on October 4, 1990 in Miami Florida and was named Dana Danelys De Los Santos. She was raised by a single mother who is from the Dominican Republic and had moved to the United States to give her daughter a better future. She worked five jobs to provide fully for her daughter.
When she was younger, Amara was a big fan of dance and attended dance classes every day. She also took up acting and modelling classes which shaped her career. She participated in a number of beauty pageants and ended up winning one.
Amara started her career at a young age, working with Univision's Sabado Gigante. She has ended up working with different musicians such as Sean Paul, Trina, Mr Vegas etc and this has made her gain lots of traction throughout Latin America.
In an interview about working with Love & Hip Hop: Miami, she said, "I've been working on it for a while now. A lot of people on social media are like, 'Ay pero, Amara's not doing anything!' And I'm like only if you knew, I've been recording every day. I just can't, you know, publish any of it. But yes, it's amazing that they noticed my hard work. They decided they wanted to have some Afro-Latino in Love & Hip Hop and bring some Latin flavor to the show. So, that's where I come in."

Well drained fine and coarse loamy soils usually over gravel with a calcareous matrix.
Cereals and short term grassland, potatoes and some field vegetables, gravel extraction.
Level or gently sloping land over river terrace gravel or related Head in the Thames valley from Dorchester downstream to Slough is included in this association. The main soils are well drained, often stony, loamy typical argillic brown earths, usually over gravel at moderate depth. The gravels are mainly flint and although the matrix is calcareous, chalk stones are rare. Sutton series, the most common soil, is fine loamy over gravel, and the coarse loamy over gravel Rougemont soils and the deep fine loamy Ludford soils are the chief subsidiaries. Deep and coarse loamy Maplestead soils and Wick soils, of similar texture but classed as typical brown earths, occur locally. The association includes most of the land mapped as the Sutton association in their survey of Berkshire. The soils mapped as Purley series and some of those mapped as Sonning series are now correlated with the Sutton series.
The association is found on low terraces of the Thames which range from 1 to 15 m above river level. The distribution of soils on the terraces is complex although the range of variation in soil properties is small. Most are fine or coarse loamy with a range of 15-20 per cent clay. Seasonally or occasionally waterlogged clayey and fine loamy alluvial soils, such as Thames and Usher series are found locally on alluvium. Away from the river, near the Chalk outcrop which borders this association, Panton series is common on chalky Head. Around Henley and Marlow, Hamble and Hook soils occur in silty drift. Near Windsor and Slough, soils over non-calcareous gravels include Efford and Hucklesbrook series.
The main soils are well drained (Wetness Class I) and excess winter rain drains rapidly through the soil into the underlying permeable gravels. On low ground the water-table rises seasonally to within I m of the surface, but rarely into the subsoil for any significant period. Sutton, Maplestead, Ludford and Wick soils have moderate reserves of available water and are slightly droughty for cereals and moderately droughty for potatoes and grass. Rougemont soils are a little more droughty as they are coarser textured and commonly shallower than Sutton soils.
The weak structure of the topsoils is damaged if cultivated when wet, but the main limitation to crop production is droughtiness. Locally, flints are numerous enough to interfere with cultivations, making precision drilling difficult and causing excess wear on machinery. These permeable soils are well suited to sequential direct drilling as they are on level or gently sloping sites and resist compaction unless wet. Cereals are grown extensively but vegetables need irrigation in most years to be successful. Under grassland the soils can stand high stocking densities with little risk of poaching, but droughtiness severely limits summer growth of grass.


Walt and Wolf started their lives on the street and in a horrible pet market in China. Through fate they ended up with us, as brothers and as our babies.
We decided very early on that if we left China it was unquestionable that they come with us. A friend has used PetRelocation to move their HUGE American mastiff from the US to China and back and had raved about how helpful they were and how happy their dog had been after the journey.
I was a very worried parent—one of our dogs is a very high strung nervous little thing and I was convinced the journey would somehow change him. Everything was great, though—from the drop off in Shanghai to trusting the process the whole way.
Both boys made it to their new home with zero issues and I am really grateful to the people who made this happen and the company in general. We will be using PetRelocation again in a few months to move our boys all the way to Australia—I have no doubt it will be just as smooth sailing.
Thanks so much! I really appreciate how quickly you guys responded to any questions I had and how clear you were about the whole process. It's easy to see you actually care about the animals you work with.
