Donald Trump has once again created a new reality show, and it's called "Himself". It's all about himself. He can say whatever he wants. Do whatever he wants. And his rules call for no penalties, because he doesn't believe he should accept any. It's brought to us by Trump Productions. And it is a very well thought out production.
Trump's show is creating serious problems that are too often aimed at bringing out the worst in people. That's what happens when a production is based upon negativity. With near total abandon, Mr.Trump throws his racial, religious, gender and personal slurs around in a stream of consciousness that doesn't quit. The fact that it's riling up hatred and prejudice that have serious consequences seems to be almost beside the point. He does it with a strong attempt at righteous arrogance, and no apparent concern for those consequences. With Donald Trump it's all about winning - no matter the cost.
In France, Trump could potentially be prosecuted for hate speech. Germany is trying to clamp down on incendiary speech in their country, and the UK talks about banning Trump for allegedly violating their hate speech laws. Three of our closest Allies understand consequences.
Is this really what we want to see in the next leader of the Free World?
And yet we continue to watch this man find new ways to play dangerous games with people's thinking, whipping them up as he goes along. It's one thing to disagree, but another to stir up hate. His reality show needs a serious course correction that would require Mr. Trump's mind to see that there is benefit in drawing crowds based on positive speech. And have the public respond in kind.

IT Giant TCS Surges to Record After Unveiling $2 Billion Buyback
Bloomberg 10/8/2020 Saritha Rai
(Bloomberg) --
Tata Consultancy Services Ltd. surged to a record high after the Indian giant announced a share buyback of as much as 160 billion rupees ($2.2 billion) and said technology spending was recovering faster than anticipated.
Asia's largest software outsourcing provider reported a larger-than-expected 7% fall in net income to 74.7 billion rupees in the September quarter. But Chief Executive Officer Rajesh Gopinathan said IT budgets were bouncing back and growth should accelerate as clients spend on digital services such as cloud migration, security and work tools to trim costs and adjust to a post-pandemic environment.
© Bloomberg Tata Consultancy Services CEO Rajesh Gopinathan Presents First Earnings Since Mistry Court Ruling
Like Infosys Ltd. and Wipro Ltd., TCS is struggling to serve global financial services giants and corporate clients after a nationwide lockdown forced hundreds of thousands of their employees to work from home. But spending is loosening as lockdowns ease globally and their customers build out their digital infrastructure. TCS's shares gained as much as 5.2% Thursday, becoming the best performer on the benchmark Sensex, after brokerages including Dalal & Broacha and IDBI Capital raised their recommendations on the stock.

"The recovery is happening a quarter earlier than we expected, it is sustainable and has strong legs," Gopinathan said during a post-earnings briefing. "But we are not fully out of the woods and need to be careful on the economic and health fronts."
TCS Earnings Signal More Upside for India's IT Names: Analysts
What Bloomberg Intelligence Says
Tata Consultancy Services is poised to see growth recover over the next 2-3 quarters as discretionary IT spending rebounds, especially among banking clients. A boost in spending on digital transformations and a need to save more on their total IT costs will be the main drivers. Tata's unique culture, brand and low attrition rate is a major differentiator compared with other rivals and could help it gain market share from companies such as IBM, which are struggling to show any growth.

Longer term, India's $181 billion tech outsourcing industry may have to deal with the unpredictability surrounding its U.S. business, including a trend of increasing automation and difficulties obtaining visas for employees in the U.S., undermining a model that relies on sending thousands of people to work alongside clients overseas.
The Trump administration is narrowing the jobs that qualify for H-1B specialty occupation visas, part of what officials say are the most significant reforms to the program in 20 years. As many as a third of all H-1B petitions would likely be rejected under the new measures, officials estimate.
Gopinathan said in Wednesday's briefing that the company is still studying the changes but they won't alter the way it works. "We are quite confident about our business model," he said.
TCS's shares, which spiked after it announced its buyback proposal, have gained more than 30% this year, lagging Infosys's roughly 50% rise but well ahead of the benchmark Sensex Index's decline.

Cops seek trio involved in Brooklyn shooting in September
By Jacob Kaye
Photos courtesy of the NYPD
Police are looking for three men involved in the shooting of a 33-year-old man in northwest Brooklyn in September.
The murder took place on Saturday, Sept. 12, around 5:30 p.m., when Afran Butt was riding in the backseat of his car, which was being driven by an unidentified man, according to the NYPD.
The man parked Butt's car in front of 1222 78th St., opened the door and got out, cops said. A second unidentified man, who was in the backset with Butt, allegedly shot the Brooklyn man several times in the torso and ran out off the car, according to the police.
Both men fled into a waiting gold 4-door Mercedes Benz, which was being driven by a third unidentified individual, according to the authorities.
The trio fled eastbound on 78th Street.
EMS personnel arrived to the scene and transported Butt to Maimonides Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
The gold Mercedes was later spotted on security cameras traveling westbound on the Verrazano Bridge.
Police say the first unidentified man was last seen wearing a dark colored baseball hat, a mask, a white shirt, blue shorts and white shoes. The second man was last seen wearing a black baseball hat, a mask, a black shirt, dark colored pants and black shoes. The driver of the Mercedes was last seen wearing a red shirt.
No arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing.

Freddy started his training in Corpus Christi in 1994 with Stacy Jorgensen. Starting in the traditional arts and then moving on to kickboxing because of the practicality of it and his growing love for the sport. He continued to improve his stand up game while practicing submission wrestling in a time when not many were training mixed martial arts.


Attracting and retaining talent has always been a hot topic, and even more so with the increasing Millennial workforce. But it's not just about developing the tech savvy generation, our existing leaders can also be given a development helping hand using the same tech tools Millennials have grown up with.
1. Mobile & e-learning. If you haven't made the move already, ensuring your learning modules are available online and can be accessed via tablets, smart phones and other mobile devices will be a key development in 2016. Think about adopting micro-modules as part of the mobile package – short, sharp lessons, no longer than 10-15 minutes, that leaders can engage with and get excited about e.g. Ted-ed. This will help give even the most time-restricted individuals access to learning materials.
2. Drive collaboration and reduce silo thinking with social media. Instant messaging sites and collaboration tools e.g. Microsoft's Sharepoint and Huddle, can not only reduce email traffic but encourage the sharing of ideas and discussions across levels and boundaries, tapping into that entrepreneurial spirit seen in many Millennials.
3. Consider mentoring. But not just flowing downwards. You could take a leaf out of Sainsburys' book and send it upwards as well, with the younger, more tech savvy Millennials mentoring more senior leaders on how to use technology to their advantage.
In light of this and ready for launch on New Years Day, Kiddy & Partners have designed their own leadership development platform, KaPture, that incorporates both mobile and social learning tools. Not only can you host your leadership development programmes and activities on the platform but it is combined with a personal portfolio where delegates can share information, track development, network and build a career plan, giving them complete control over their current and future development.

Losing a child can be such a stressful ordeal!
So, what happens when this worst-case scenario occurs? A child gets lost or separated from the Parent/Guardian - a terrifying prospect for any young child. The Parent/Guardian is panicking because that gut-wrenching feeling is getting worse and they fear that something is seriously wrong.
We offer 'A Simple Solution to a Stressful Ordeal' that helps to reunite the lost child with the Parent/Guardian quicker.
Our target market is 3-10-year old's who in the blink of an eye can wander off and lose sight of their Parent/Guardian.
A survey by Childline (NSPCC) has shown that nearly 1 in 5 children accidentally get separated from their Parents whilst on holiday.
In the last 3 years we have discovered that there is not one standard lost child policy in place throughout the UK (FollowtheBear.co.uk) – Public facilities have no legal obligation to keep a record of lost children, so they could not tell you how often it occurs in their facilities and how long it took to reunite a lost child with its Parent or Guardian.
Each participating facility can give your child a Follow the Bear ® - Lost Child Wristband 'Free of Charge' and these can be obtained by you at either the facilities Ticket Office/Reception, their Security Staff or Cleaners; or at a dispenser located in the facility (at the entrance with an A2 or A1 info graphic board with animated characters demonstrating to your child how the scheme works.
So, if your favourite Shopping Centre, Amusement/Theme Park, Children's Activity Farm, Zoo, Holiday Park, Museum or Tourist Attraction doesn't have the Follow the Bear - Lost Child Trail installed and Lost Child Wristbands available for your child to wear, join forces with your friends and family and insist that they take your child's safety seriously!


While for many 5G remains a distant dream, it will be ready for select markets as soon as next year. One of the world's leading chipset makers, Qualcomm has just unveiled their new antenna module which will enable the high-speed swath of networking spectrum to work with mobile phones.
As announced in an official blog post, Qualcomm's new QTM052 mmWave antenna modules will give users a big boost in speed with lower-bandwidth 5G solutions, but the truly impressive parts are the changes towards the mmWave network.
While the mmWave portion of the spectrum offers dramatically faster speeds, it also transmits at a much shorter range and is far more easily blocked by things like walls and even users' hands held over their devices. According to Qualcomm, this can be solved with the help of its QTM052 antenna. It's a tiny antenna array, roughly the size of a penny, that features four antennas that can (with the help of Qualcomm's algorithms) accurately point toward the nearest 5G tower. It can even bounce signals off of surrounding surfaces. The QTM052 is designed to be small enough that device manufacturers will be able to embed it into the bezel of a phone.
Qualcomm says that the first devices with the QTM052 antennas should be launching as early as the beginning of 2019. Hopefully, we'd have some working 5G networks by that time to actually test out the fast network speeds.


How to avoid erroneous results.
Most people assume that all DNA paternity tests are the same, and it doesn't matter where you get your DNA test done. That could not be farther from the truth.
Even if you are using an accredited DNA paternity testing laboratory, the minimum required levels of paternity testing are very low. DNA paternity testing laboratories know that if they only test DNA to the minimum required level, a number of paternity test results every year will identify someone as the biological father when he is not (a "false inclusion") or say that he is not the biological father when he actually is (a "false exclusion").
The DNA paternity testing industry is regulated by the American Association of Blood Banks (AABB). The two committees at the AABB that actually establish the requirements for DNA paternity testing are composed of volunteers from private DNA paternity testing laboratories like PTC Laboratories. Historically, those committees have made certain that DNA paternity testing laboratories are following correct scientific procedure, but they have been less concerned about the amount of paternity testing that DNA paternity testing laboratories perform. The theory is that if a client wants additional DNA testing, the client can negotiate with the paternity testing laboratory to pay for additional DNA testing. The problem is that clients have no way to know if they need more DNA testing.
So PTC Laboratories provides the extra DNA testing automatically, at no extra charge. We are simply unwilling to release a DNA paternity test that we believe has any realistic chance of being incorrect. It is surprising that many DNA paternity testing laboratories do not feel that way. A Miami paper wrote a very interesting story that interviewed several DNA testing laboratories and demonstrates the wide variety of opinions regarding additional DNA testing.
Clients who have received DNA paternity tests from other DNA paternity testing laboratories, but question the results, sometimes send them to PTC Laboratories for review. We have received many such DNA paternity tests. The vast majority of those DNA tests have correctly identified the tested man as the biological father or not. But some of those DNA paternity tests have reached an incorrect conclusion. In those cases, if the client asks PTC Laboratories to perform the DNA paternity test on the same parties, we have been able to obtain the correct DNA paternity test result, explain to the client the reason that the other DNA testing laboratory obtained a wrong answer and are usually able to get the other DNA testing laboratory to correct their error and issue a corrected DNA paternity test report.
The problem is that in some of the cases of incorrect DNA paternity test results, the clients do not realize that their original DNA paternity test was wrong. Many live out the rest of their lives assuming that the DNA paternity test has provided a correct answer.
Some of the things that cause incorrect DNA paternity tests are discussed below.
A DNA paternity test works by identifying certain specific size pieces of DNA that the child received from the child's biological father. If the DNA tested man has those same size pieces, then he could be the child's biological father. But other men in the population will also have those same size pieces. So a DNA paternity testing laboratory tests additional DNA locations (genetic markers). In general, the more DNA locations that are tested, the more rare the total pattern will be. In other words, fewer other men will also have this pattern. The more rare the pattern is, the more likely it will be that the DNA tested man is truly the child's biological father.
However, if DNA testing is stopped after identifying only a pattern that is somewhat common, then there is a greater chance that the DNA tested man is not the biological father, but is just one of the people in the population with this same somewhat common pattern. Thus, sometimes DNA paternity tests are incorrect because they have falsely included the DNA tested man as the biological father, when he is not. Those tests are not "technically incorrect," as the laboratories issuing them will tell you, because the result just states a probability that the tested man is the biological father, and not a certainty. But the test has identified the wrong man as dad, and the DNA tested parties would therefore consider the test result to be incorrect. At PTC Laboratories we certainly agree.
Those DNA paternity testing laboratories that are more conscientious insist on continuing DNA testing until they achieve a pattern that is more rare than the required minimum level, and therefore provide a more reliable DNA paternity test. The industry only requires DNA testing until a 99% probability of paternity is achieved. But at that level of DNA testing, the identified DNA pattern would be possessed, on average, by one in every 100 men, and in some cases will be even much more common than that. At that level, there are still many men who would fit that pattern and who the DNA test would show to be the child's biological father. Some DNA paternity testing laboratories insist on DNA testing until they achieve at least a 99.9% probability of paternity, which is a pattern that on average fits one in every 1,000 men. PTC Laboratories insists on testing until we achieve at least a 99.99% probability of paternity, which is a pattern that on average fits only one in every 10,000 men.
DNA Paternity tests can falsely exclude someone who is truly the child's biological father for a variety of reasons.
One major reason is simple human error. For example, it is possible at the time of the DNA specimen collection for the collector to accidentally place the child's DNA specimen in the mother's DNA specimen envelope and the mother's DNA specimen in the DNA child's envelope. This type of sample switch causes the DNA paternity testing laboratory to compare the alleged father's DNA to the mother's DNA, instead of to the child's DNA. This has caused paternity testing laboratories to issue a paternity report that excludes the alleged father even though he is the biological father, because the samples were switched. PTC Laboratories puts a simple check in place which requires that for every test that appears to be an exclusion, we compare the alleged father's DNA to the mother's DNA, and if they match at all DNA locations, then we look into it further and correct any sample switch before we complete the DNA paternity test.
Another type of human error that has caused erroneous test results is the situation where the alleged father sent in an imposter (someone pretending to be the alleged father to provide a DNA sample). Sometimes this can go undetected if the mother is not able to identify the picture of the alleged father or was not present at the collection, but when it is detected, the alleged father is forced to go in himself and give a DNA sample. Sometimes the DNA paternity testing laboratory has accidentally reused the original sample and DNA tested the leftover portion of it instead of the new sample (because the original DNA sample still had the name of the alleged father on it). At PTC Laboratories we implement many additional procedures that are not required by the AABB, simply to minimize the possibility of human error.
False exclusions can also result from an inadequate amount of DNA testing. One way this occurs is by assuming that the DNA tested man is not the father just because his DNA fails to match the child's DNA at two DNA locations. Quite often the child's DNA mutates, so that the child's DNA and father's DNA do not match at one or a few DNA locations, even though the man really is the child's biological father. Occasionally there can be two DNA locations where the child and biological father do not match, and extremely rarely the biological father can fail to match the child at three locations. The AABB's minimum testing requirement is that the laboratory has to find at least two locations where they do not match, in order to issue a report excluding the alleged father. The theory is that mutations are pretty rare, so if there are two DNA locations that don't match, then probably they are not mutations.
But DNA paternity testing laboratories realize that sometimes the two non-matching locations will both be mutations, and the man will actually be the biological father. PTC Laboratories tracks these events. In our experience, over half the time that the tested man and child fail to match at only two locations out of fifteen, additional testing proves that the man is actually the biological father. As a result, at PTC Laboratories we require stronger DNA testing. PTC Laboratories' laboratory policy is to continue DNA testing until we either prove that the tested man is the biological father, or find at least four DNA locations where the man and child do not match. Some laboratories simply issue a DNA paternity test excluding the tested man after finding two non-matching locations, even though they are aware that a reasonable amount of additional testing could change the outcome of the DNA paternity test.
One example of this problem occurred a few years ago, when PTC Laboratories received an angry call from the Miami Family Court. The man in this case wanted to establish that he was the child's biological father, and the man wanted to be involved in the child's life. PTC Laboratories had shown that the man was the father. The judge wanted to know how two different DNA paternity testing laboratories could have issued DNA paternity tests with two different results for the same family. The answer was that the other laboratory had issued a test excluding the alleged father after finding only two locations where the man and child did not match. When this discrepancy was brought to the other DNA Paternity testing laboratory's attention, they performed additional DNA testing and issued a new laboratory report agreeing that the man was the child's biological father. A Miami paper (Miami Daily Business Review © August 11, 2003) wrote a very interesting story about this case.
DNA paternity testing laboratories performing only the minimum required amount of DNA testing know that they will sometimes be issuing incorrect paternity tests. At PTC Laboratories we implement additional DNA testing requirements and procedures to try to make sure that this does not happen to you.

Two projects in Europe will capture body heat from crowds to heat nearby buildings.
Two projects in Europe are using geothermal systems to make the most out of the body heat from commuting crowds.
Sam Jones, on This Big City, writes that the Swedish realtor Jernhusen is investing in renovations of Stockholm Central Station, which will include a geothermal system that captures the body heat from the station's 250,000 daily commuters to use in nearby offices.
Heat exchangers in the ventilation system will convert surplus low-grade body heat into hot water, which will then be pumped to heat office space in the nearby Kungsbrohuset building, also owned by Jernhusen. The plans, due for completion in June 2012, also include the replacement of all lighting in the station with LEDs, with the aim of obtaining Green Building certification.
The system could reduce the energy costs of the office block by up to 25% – a significant saving given Sweden's cold winters and costly gas. The common ownership of the two buildings makes the transfer of energy a clear win, but – says Klas Johnasson, one of the developers – if real estate owners collaborate, there's no reason why the project could not be replicated on a commercial basis.
A similar project is underway at the Paris Metro's Rambuteau station. While this project will generate heat from commuters, it will also use heat from the moving trains to provide heating for a nearby public housing project.
These projects are great because they're gathering energy that would otherwise be wasted. But they are also only practical in dense, walkable cities where crowds are normal and the harnessed energy doesn't need to travel far. So is there hope to see this technology on a larger scale?

Q: Virtual functions with same name but different arguments and return types I was asked this question in an interview. My answer was (3 and 3.6)(wrong).
Please explain how my understanding is wrong
My thinking was that pointer bd will point to the _vptr of derived class vtable.
Vtable of Derived class will contain 2 functions
double func(double) // ----->points to Derived::func()
int func(int)       // ----->points to Base::func()

Hence,
bd->func(2)   // will call Base::func() i.e int func(int)
bd->func(2.3) // will call Derived::func() i.e double func(double)

Please explain how my understanding is wrong.
Also, explain the case when Base::func() is not virtual.
In that case, there will be no vtable right? How will be function calls be resolved?
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

class Base
{
private:
    /* data */
public:
    Base(/* args */){};
    ~Base(){};

    //int func(int i)     getting same answer regardless of virtual
    virtual int func(int i)
    {
        cout << "Base func()" << endl;
        return i+1;
    }
};

class Derived : public Base
{
public:
    Derived(/* args */){};
    ~Derived(){};

    double func(double d)
    {
        cout << "Derived func()" << endl;
        return d+1.3;
    }
};

int main() {
    Base* bd = new Derived();
    cout << bd->func(2) << endl;
    cout << bd->func(2.3) << endl;
    return 0;
}

Expected output:
Base func()
3
Derived func()
3.6

Actual output:
Base func()
3
Base func()
3

A: There's no function taking a double in Base. And all you have is a pointer to Base. So the 2.3 is truncated to the int value 2 and Base::func(int i) is called.
Derived::func(double d) is not in play at all in this code.
It doesn't matter that func is virtual in Base, since the func in Derived does not override it (the signatures don't match). Adding the override keyword to Base::func will make that clear instantly as a compiler error.

Wow, what a great show. I saw it last summer and thought it was pretty decent show. But later I found out that the performers were high-schoolers and I then I second-thought about everything and realized how good everything was good and how professional they were. I would definately see this show again if I have the chance.

Newcastle Uniteds Premier League survival hopes have been dealt a severe blow with the news goalkeeper Rob Elliot requires surgery on his injured knee and is out for a minimum of six months. Eddie Griffin Jersey . Elliot was carried off whilst playing for the Republic of Ireland in Dublin on Tuesday, having injured his knee whilst trying to block Miroslav Stochs opening goal in their Euro 2016 warm-up game against Slovakia. Republic boss Martin ONeill confirmed after the match it was a serious knee injury.Newcastle confirmed the extent of the injury on Wednesday afternoon, saying in a statement: Newcastle United can confirm that goalkeeper Rob Elliot has sustained an injury to his anterior cruciate ligament. Rob has returned to Newcastle and has been assessed this morning by the Clubs doctor. He will now commence a programme of treatment and rehabilitation.Regrettably, the severity of this injury will rule Rob out for a number of months.Everyone connected with Newcastle United wishes Rob the very best for his recovery.The injury has also ruled Elliot out of the European Championships.The news is a huge blow for Newcastle boss Rafael Benitez, with the club currently second from bottom in the Premier League, three points away from safety. Karl Darlow (right) has played just once in the Premier League - a 1-0 defeat against West Brom Newcastle face Norwich City this weekend in a crucial match in the relegation battle, having already lost first choice goalkeeper Tim Krul for the remainder of the season with a knee injury of his own.Benitez now faces using inexperienced goalkeeper Karl Darlow, who has played only twice for the club since signing for them in August 2014, or 19 year old Fred Woodman.The availability of those two keepers means Newcastle would be unable to approach the Premier League about signing an emergency goalkeeper, as they have two fit professionals available.England goalkeeper Jack Butland, who suffered his own season-ending injury against Germany on Saturday, tweeted his sympathy to Elliot on Wednesday afternoon, writing: mate, gutted for you and wish you a solid recovery! you can come round mine and we can watch the euros together! head up mate! Jack Butlands tweet to Rob Elliot Also See: Newcastle video Newcastle fixtures Newcastle stats Get a free £10 bet Metta World Peace Jersey . For the Bombers it has been a combination of things coming together at the most inappropriate moments in time. Quarterback, injuries, Canadian talent or depth and leadership are all issues. Trust me when I say being a Bomber is no fun right now in a city that embraces football the way Winnipeg does. While Buck Pierce will be getting another shot, I think Max Hall does deserve another opportunity. Rick Barry Jersey . First, the Red Wings scored the tying goal after officials missed the puck hitting the protective netting, then the Kings wound up losing in a shootout. That could affect playoff positioning in the Eastern and Western Conferences, and thats a concern for everyone.VANCOUVER - Rory MacDonald says he doesnt feel any added pressure to carry Canadas mixed martial arts torch in Georges St-Pierres absence. In fact, his mentors hiatus from the UFC makes McDonalds quest to reach the top of the welterweight division a little easier. "It opens things up for me to get to where I want to be," MacDonald said this week. "Ive learned a lot from Georges. No extra pressure, Ive just got to be myself." It remains to be seen if St-Pierre will return to the sport he dominated, but the 24-year-old MacDonald — who goes by the nickname "Ares" — is intent on continuing his climb this Saturday at UFC 174 when he takes on Tyron (The Chosen One) Woodley in the co-main event at Rogers Arena. Both men have their sights set on Johny Hendricks welterweight title, with MacDonald ranked as the No. 2 challenger and Woodley at No. 3. Shy in front of the media glare, MacDonald said he just has to continue working on what has brought him to this point. "I think people like me for who I am," said MacDonald, who was born in Quesnel, B.C., but now trains in Montreal. "Ive gotten to the position Im in because of being who I am — a couple stumbles along the way but I feel like Im hitting my stride right now." One of those stumbles actually came in Vancouver when MacDonald (16-2) lost at UFC 115 in June 2010 to Carlos Condit. His only other defeat came to Robbie Lawler in a split decision at UFC 167 in November, but MacDonald rebounded to beat Demian Maia in a spplit decision at UFC 170 in February. Chris Clemons Jersey. "You pick and choose your spots. You play between defence and offence against other good fighters," said MacDonald. "I just had a great training camp. No injuries and things went great. I felt great in my sparrings and my techniques are sharp." Woodley (13-2), a two-time All-American wrestler at the University of Missouri, has just three UFC bouts under his belt, including a technical knockout victory over Condit at UFC 171 in March. MacDonald said if he fights to his strengths against Woodley, he should come out on top. "I know the techniques. They come out as instinct right now," said MacDonald. "Ive trained them so much. So Ive just got to go in there and do my thing. "Im ready for everything. Last time here was unbelievable, the response I got. If its the same, more, or less Ill be ready." In a era where athletes in all sports are constantly looking for an edge, MacDonald said he doesnt study video of his opponents before a fight, preferring to use his instincts. "Ive fought a lot of people in the past — never seen them, never heard of them and had to deal with their problems," he said. "I find it easier to do it like that, to react in the cage." MacDonald is hoping for the same against Woodley on Saturday night. "Hes a great fighter. To beat him you have to be tricky and use good techniques," he said. "I feel very confident in my abilities and the solutions I have." ' ' '
clarity how each of those Konerko says he to an end. Bruce
clarity how each of those
The Air Canada Centre has always been a house of horrors for the Ottawa Senators. Morgan Tiller Jersey Store . Steve Thomas. Cory Cross. Gary Roberts. Joe Nieuwendyk. Every Sens fan can tell you with painful clarity how each of those players stung the Senators in the past. So as the Sens get set to face the Maple Leafs in a crucial game on Saturday night, I pondered a very legitimate question: Has Ottawa ever beaten Toronto in a regular season game that mattered at the Air Canada Centre? The only instance I could think of was at the tail end of the 2007-08 season, when the Senators crushed the Maple Leafs with a decisive 8-2 victory. With that win, Ottawa essentially clinched a playoff spot – although they were facing a Toronto team that had absolutely nothing to play for. The worst part is that win actually proved costly, as Leafs forward Mark Bell took out both Daniel Alfredsson and Mike Fisher in that game and neither was available for the playoffs. Even Ottawas lone meaningful regular season victory at the Air Canada Centre came with a massive asterisk. For the most part, Ottawa has enjoyed success at the ACC in the month of October. Their most memorable victories were probably the first ever shootout win in NHL history and Dany Heatleys four-goal performance in an 8-0 win. Both of those wins came just a few weeks apart in October of 2005. You could maybe toss Craig Andersons 47-save shutout performance in his Sens debut into the mix, but that victory came in February when the Senators had already given up on the 2010-11 season. In fact, that Anderson victory at the ACC was an aberration when you look at the Sens record against the Leafs towards the back half of the season. A monthly breakdown of the Sens all-time record against the Maple Leafs paints a pretty clear picture of a team that does well in the first half of the season, but fades down the stretch against their provincial rivals: October: 16-5-1 November: 10-5-1 December: 3-3-1 January: 5-5-2 February: 4-7-3 March: 7-6-3 April: 4-7-0 Of course these numbers only reflect regular season meetings, but if you were to add the playoff numbers to the mix it would only worsen the situation for the Senators. In short, the Senators have won 16 times against the Leafs in the month of October in only 22 games. But that is more wins than they have against the Leafs in the final three months of the season combined – and that spans a total of 41 games. To add to the misery, the Senators record against the Leafs in February, March and April in the last five years is a woeful 2-10-0. Its not like Im dragging up ancient history and talking about the playoff series from 12 years ago. This is recent history that has not been kind to Ottawa. Ottawa has lost some memorable regular season games to the Leafs and it feels like all of them have been in the back half of the season. The infamous flu game where Owen Nolan scored the OT winner and said "Boo-hoo" about Ottawa players being sick. Or the 6-0 shellacking the Leafs laid on Ottawa in the regular season finale in 2003-04, which gave Toronto home ice advantage in their subsequent playoff series. And even Nazem Kadris hat trick last March in a 4-0 shutout win is probably near the top of the list. Torontos great regular season moments against Ottawa come in February, March and April, while the Senators big wins seem to occur in October. These are all ominous numbers and stats for the Senators, as they head into Saturday nights showdown against the Maple Leafs at the Air Canada Centre. The calendar has flipped to February and history is not on the Senators side. But if Ottawa wants to make the playoffs this season and head into the Olympic break with some momentum, its time they finally won a game at the Air Canada Centre that mattered for both teams. Bill Baumgartner Jersey Store . If there is one club built to handle an off-field controversy, its the Bill Belichick era Patriots. Even if New Englands offence stumbles a bit out of the gate, their defence can help them stay in games, especially in the AFC East with the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets in the first two weeks. Larry Jordan Jersey Store . - Novak Djokovic beat John Isner 7-5, 6-7 (2), 6-1 on Saturday to reach the final of the BNP Paribas Open, where hell resume his longtime rivalry with Roger Federer.OAKLAND – Edwin Encarnacion suffered a right leg injury in the first inning of the Blue Jays Saturday night game against the Athletics. The clubs preliminary diagnosis is "right quadriceps soreness." Encarnacion will undergo an MRI on Sunday. Encarnacion was at the plate with one out and Jose Reyes on third base and Melky Cabrera on first. He beat out a groundball by a step but pulled up lame. He required the assistance of trainers George Poulis and Mike Frostad to leave the field. "I felt some pop before I touched the base. Thats why after I touched the base I let my body go to the ground because I felt a lot of pain," Encarnacion said. Reyes scored on the play. Adam Lind pinch ran for Encarnacioon and replaced him at first base. Richard Bell Jersey Store . Losing Encarnacion for a prolonged period of time would be damaging to the Blue Jays playoff hopes. He is baseballs leader with 69 RBI. Encarnacions 26 home runs place him in a second-place tie with Baltimores Nelson Cruz, one behind Jose Abreu of the White Sox. "Id be very surprised if it wasnt a DL, for a couple of weeks at least. I dont know that for sure yet," manager John Gibbons said. "Of course, in this moment I dont want to go to the DL. I want to be playing, helping my team to win games," Encarnacion added. "Thats what we need right now, we dont need me to go to the DL, its going to be very frustrating for me. Well see what happens." ' ' '
Konerko says he
CHICAGO - Retiring Chicago White Sox slugger Paul Konerko hopes to return next week from a broken bone in his left hand. Tandon Doss Jersey Store . Konerko says he might take some swings on Friday and hit some balls over the weekend. He thinks he will be ready to play during a nine-game trip to Kansas City, Tampa Bay and Detroit that starts next week. The 38-year-old Konerko was injured while tagging out Danny Santana in a game at Minnesota on Sept. 2. The White Sox will hold Paul Konerko Day on Sept. 27 at U.S. Cellular Field during the final weekend of the season. Konerko has played for the White Sox since 1999 and is the teams captain.

The deal was approved Thursday by the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Authority. The deal still needs to be formally approved by the Oakland City Council and Alameda County Board of Supervisors later this month. The deal settles all outstanding issues bettween the two sides, including a dispute of past rent owed by the As. Cairo Santos Jersey Store . The As will spend more than $10 million on a new scoreboard and the Coliseum Authority will pay for any structural improvements that will be in place by opening day 2015.

Each week, The Reporters put their thumbs out to the good and the bad in the world of sports. Discount Shoes Online Australia . This week, they discuss preparations for the Rio Olympics, the exciting first round of the NBA playoffs, Mike Keenan victorious in Russia and the prolonged wait for the NFL Draft finally coming to an end. Bruce Arthur, Toronto Star My thumb is down to the International Olympic Committee and…I know, I know…you feel like weve been here before, but this is a new frontier because the concept of an Olympics in Rio was new when the IOC awarded Brazil the 2016 games seven years ago. Concerns about readiness, inequality and about the way the country might react? Dont worry! Rio! Now with two years to go, the IOC is shocked…shocked…to find that they gambled on a country that hasnt built the establishment. Seriously, Rio is in major organization trouble with whole complexes unbuilt and with public unrest still simmering, the IOC is lamenting the fact that they cant employ Beijing-style slave labour. Theyre blaming it on Rio. Guess who they should be blaming instead? Steve Simmons, Toronto Sun My thumb is up to the first round of the playoffs and Im not talking about the Stanley Cup playoffs, which have been marvelous, as usual. Im talking about the NBA playoffs, where, normally, the first round is about favourites winning and not much else, but not this year. A last-second three by the sensational Damian Lillard of Portland meant there were five Game 7s in the first round, instead of a record-breaking six. There have been eight overtime games and the road team has won 21 of the first 36 playoff games - this from a league that usually sees the home teams win 70 per cent of the time. And, of course, there is Game 7 in Toronto today with the possibility of 2 million people watching on TV. If this isnt fun, I dont know what is. Michael Farber, Sports Illustrated My thumb is up to Mike Keenan, who reminds us that a coach is a coach is a coach, no matter the team or the time zone. Keenan always dreamed of winning a Cup, although probably not the Gagarin Cup. Two decades after the New York Rangers memorable Stanley Cup run, Iron Mike did it again on the far side of the erstwhile Iron Curtain, coaching the KHLs Metallurg Magnitogorsk to a Game 7 win over Lev Prague. Note one striking similarity in the championships: as he did after beating the Vancouver Canucks in 94, Keenan celebrated in the dressing room by singing karaoke - this time in Russian, of course. The Red Army choir is not giving up its day job. Dave Hodge, TSN My thumb is up to May 8, which is coming soon - on Thursday - and thats why my thumb is up, because when May 8 finally arrives, it brings with it the National Football League Draft…finally. Did I say "finally?" When the NFL moved the draft from April to May, we might have known wed be sick of mock drafts by now. There is actual analysis that proclaims winners and losers of mock drafts! Ive heard so much about Jadeveon Clowneys awesome talent and alleged laziness that Im sure there are two Jadeveon Clowneys. Im not sure if the Houston Texans will take one of them or which one or if the Texans will take Johnny Manziel or if theyll trade down - I only know they cant trade up and I dont care anymore what they do, I just want them to do it. On May 8. Nmd Outlet Store . His Chicago Blackhawks teammates werent shocked when he found it. Kanes career has been defined by his brilliance in the Blackhawks biggest moments, and his tiebreaking goal with 3:45 to play in Game 6 of the Western Conference finals will rank among the best. Air Max 90 Online Store . "I honestly dont know," he said. Try this: 20 points, nine assists and seven rebounds by Rajon Rondo, a 62-37 rebounding advantage by the Celtics and a horrible 4-for-30 shooting performance on 3-pointers by the Nets.GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The Phoenix Coyotes zipped around the ice, generating good scoring chances, getting into a scrap after a big hit, pumping in a goal late in the first period. It was just the kind of effort they needed against a team that had played the night before, particularly one thats ahead of them in the standings. Oliver Ekman-Larsson scored two goals, Thomas Greiss stopped 30 shots and the Coyotes kicked off an important five-game homestand with a 3-0 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday night. "We caught a team at the right time, but that being said, I thought we played the right kind of game to take advantage of it," Coyotes coach Dave Tippett said. "We kept getting pucks deep, we put some pucks at the net and it was a pretty solid game throughout our lineup." The Coyotes needed to string together some victories during their homestand after a rough stretch dropped them to ninth in the Western Conference. They responded with arguably their best game of the season, playing solid in their own end while peppering Jonathan Quick with 29 shots. Antoine Vermette had a goal and an assist to extend his points streak to five games and Shane Doan had his 500th career assist on Ekman-Larssons second goal. That was more than enough for Greiss, who had his second shutout this season, third career. "It was a huge game for us," Ekman-Larsson said. "We talked about this game and I think we played well for 60 minutes." Los Angeles laboured after playing the night before and for the fourth time in six nights. The Kings also continued to struggle in the offensive zone. Los Angeles was relegated to the outside mostly in the first two periods and hit the post twice in the third, unable to get anything past Greiss. The Kings have scored two goals in their past four games and have lost six of seven. "Tonight, I dontt know how many really good chances we had," Kings captain Dustin Brown said. Cheap Air Max 90 Australia . "Probably a bit of them playing really well and us not being hungry enough to get to the dirty areas and if were going to score goals, thats what were going to have to get back to." The Coyotes have been tumbling down the Western Conference standings, losing seven of their past 10 games. They did rally from a 4-2 deficit to earn a point against Vancouver Sunday night behind Vermettes third career hat trick. Phoenix still had its offensive mojo going early against the Kings, creating some good chances and while getting traffic in front of Quick, who made some tough stops, including a sprawling save on Jeff Halpern. Ekman-Larsson broke through late in the first period, whipping a wrister from the point past Quick. A physical game between two rivals became even rougher in the second period, when Jordan Nolan levelled Kyle Chipchura with a shoulder, setting of a scrum along the boards. Phoenix got a power play out of it and scored 12 seconds into it, when Ekman-Larsson beat Quick with a slapshot just outside the faceoff circle. Greiss had a string of tough saves as the game opened up late in the second period and Vermette put it out of reach in the third, punching in a rebound for his team-leading 19th goal of the season. The Kings hit the post twice in the final period, but, as has been the case lately, the pucks caromed away instead of into the net. "Theres a team-wide frustration and a personal frustration for some guys in here," Brown said. NOTES: Vermette has six goals and two assists during his points streak. ... The Kings have scored three goals in their past 38 power play chances. ... Coyotes LW Paul Bissonnette received a 10-minute misconduct in the second period for throwing punches at Nolan after his hit on Chipchura. ' ' '

This mid-size sedan is not only one of the best vehicles in the class but a pretty good family car with a reasonable amount of space, great equipment, and safety. For the base model, the price of just $22,120 MSRP you will get a 2.5-liter engine and 6-speed automatic gearbox, good interior room and big boot. The affordable base price means you can spend on options and make your Fusion even more enjoyable. The hybrid version is also available and it is considered to be amongst the best hybrids in its class.
The Chrysler Corp. was one of the first companies in the world to introduce the minivan back in the early '80s and it revolutionized family transport as we know it. Today, more than 30 years later, we have the Pacifica, brand new Chrysler's minivan with seating for up to 8 people, very sleek looks, luxury trim and 287 hp. The base price is $28,950 which is almost at the limit but for that kind of money, you will be driving a very nice and elegant minivan.
Koreans are known to make good SUVs and Santa Fe Sport is one of those. Loads of space, great design, sporty appeal and 185 hp for $25,250 MSRP is a great deal for a great family car. The Sport version has a little more trunk space than the regular Tucson but it is smaller than the full-size Santa Fe. However, we are sure that you will be satisfied with the comfort and quality of this model.
One of the most interesting compact family SUVs on the market is the Subaru Forester due to the fact it has a permanent all-wheel drive, great comfort and lots of space. For 2017, Forester has been redesigned and with a lot more features but the base price remained the same. For just $22,595 this is one of the most affordable family cars and a great buy, too.
The Prius has been among the most loved family vehicles since its introduction. But, despite great fuel economy, ordinary Prius has limited interior and trunk space. However, Toyota presented the Prius V, kind of a crossover version of the standard model. It has significantly more space but it is still very slow and lethargic due to the fact it uses regular model`s engine and drivetrain. The prices start at $26,650 MSRP and if fuel economy is more valuable to you than driving characteristics, then the Prius V is a car for you.
The Rouge is a compact SUV but with one interesting feature – third-row seating. Most vehicles with this option are over our $30,000 limit but the Rouge starts at just $23,820 MSRP which makes it a very affordable and practical family transport. The hybrid version is available and this model has decent power and performance.
Bigger than the compact Escape, Edge is a newer and more capable SUV. With the base price of $28,890 MSRP it is close to the limit but the amount of space, equipment, and power is just amazing. In fact, Edge is equipped like some much more expensive vehicles and the base engine is a 240 hp 2.0-liter unit. Nice, big and powerful SUV is perfect for an active family.
The mid-size Malibu is one of the best Chevrolet models at the moment, great looking, spacious, well equipped and nice to drive. There are plenty of interior space as well as a nice-sized trunk. And the best thing is the base price of 2017 Malibu, which is $21,680 for the 1.5-liter turbocharged engine. More powerful engines and hybrid power are available as an option and even fully equipped model will not go over our $30,000 limit.
Despite the fact that Honda has bigger and roomier SUVs in their model lineup, the CR-V is the best choice for family buyers for a couple of reasons. First, it is spacious enough, has great technology and features, good power and drivetrain and affordable price. For $24,000 MSRP you will get one of the complete family compact SUVs on the market with a fresh design and good standard equipment.
If you are looking for a big minivan with third-row seating, nice design and decent power the Kia Sedona is a car for you. Starting at $26,900, it is much cheaper than other full-size minivans on the market and comes with a 3.3-litre V6 with 276 hp which will provide effortless cruising for this big family hauler.
Despite the fact that Tiguan has a little less trunk space than its competitors, we included it on our list due to the fact that it is affordable, quality made and nice to drive. The base price is $24,840 MSRP, and you will get a 200 hp engine, automatic transmission, nice interior and ride quality.
Mazda 6 is a popular mid-size sedan with very nice, curved design, great features and very affordable price. Despite its low silhouette and sporty appeal, the interior has enough space for occupants and there is sufficient trunk space. The base version starts at just $22,995 MSRP and it comes equipped with an 184 hp engine. Even if you throw a couple of options on your Mazda 6 you won't go over the $30,000 limit.
The Toyota Sienna is one of the most popular and spacious minivans on the market. We thought whether we should include it on our list because its base price is just below $30K at exactly $29,750 MSRP, but if you want it properly equipped you must spend more than the limit. But even if you choose the base model you will still get a big boot, third-row seating, three-zone climate control, and integrated rear camera.
On the first glance, the Jeep Cherokee is a typical compact family SUV. It has plenty of space, decent power, equipment and is user-friendly. But there is another side to this model and those are its off-road capabilities. You can get the optional all-wheel drive, take your family to interesting off-road road trip and explore much more than you could with a regular FWD SUV or minivan. The base price is $23,695 and for just $2,000 more you can get Jeep`s intelligent AWD system.

His first book is called White Collar Warrior – Lessons for Sales Professionals from America's Military Elite, where he draws comparisons between the best the U.S. military produces and the most effective sales professionals. "All In with Coach Bill Hart" is his podcast that showcases a wide variety of people who match that description.
"'For such a time as this' is the phrase that comes to mind as I consider the many top producers, leaders and executives I've been privileged to walk beside as an executive coach," Hart says about joining Movement. "Culture match and alignment was a critical consideration for me, having been part of a company like Building Champions, which is really more like a tribe or brotherhood for me.
"I'm thrilled for the opportunity to bring the many lessons I've learned over the years to Movement's exciting platform, focused on loving and valuing people," he adds. "In an industry that has long been transactional, I'm fired up to help spread the power of a relational focus."
"Coach Bill's values are in direct alignment with ours and bringing his valued and respected voice into the conversation at Movement will serve to amplify the message of our mission," Movement CEO Casey Crawford says.
At Movement, Hart will build executive coaching programs alongside Movement's industry-leading sales coaching program, led by Tim Davis. Hart will coach and build leadership development structures for Movement's sales executives, its operations community leaders and its corporate department heads. As a gifted speaker and communicator, Hart will also use his platform as an ambassador for the Movement brand, helping share the Movement story with thousands of leaders in his network.
"Coach Bill Hart has already been an incredible blessing to me and so many of our top sales leaders, so I know this partnership is going to supercharge our entire organization," Movement Mortgage President Mike Brennan says. "Coach Bill is fully aligned with our values around loving and serving people, and I am excited to see how he will invest in hundreds of lives here at Movement."
Coach Bill resides in Moorpark, California with his wife Toni and enjoys time with family, reading and playing golf.

How 16 amazing women leaders are changing the retail industry for the better
These incredible women are smashing the glass ceiling with stilettos and mascara wands in taking over the shopping business.
The retail business is a place where creativity and motivation thrive. In a world where women control more than $20 trillion of spending in the global economy, it doesn't make sense for male executives to dominate the shopping world any longer. Women deserve products that meet their unique needs, and they are contributing extremely valuable ideas, highlighted by the empowering females below.
Although these women vary in age, race and sexual orientation, all are bound together by their success and tenacity. Meet the truly exceptional ladies working to take over the retail world, one brilliant idea at a time.
1. Emily Weiss
Founder and CEO of Glossier
After a brief stint on The Hills, Weiss founded the beauty blog Into the Gloss, working on it in the wee hours before her office job. Just a few years later, she launched a cult-favorite beauty brand using nothing but Instagram. Now she's the CEO of Glossier, a multimillion-dollar company that's going nowhere but up.
How does someone so successful stay grounded? Weiss reports that regular meditation is key to keeping relaxed and turning into the powerful leader she is.
2. Ashley Nell Tipton
Project Runway winner, fashion line founder
This bombshell babe is a California native and winner of the competitive fashion design show Project Runway. Since then, she's taken the plus-size fashion world by storm.
Tipton sells personal designs on her website and formerly designed a huge part of JCPenney's flagship Boutique+ line. She's happy to express herself more freely now in her designs for women, with plans to expand to men's and children's plus-size clothing.
3. Kylie Jenner
Founder and CEO of Kylie Cosmetics
Getting her start on reality TV, this little Kardashian sis has made a big splash in the beauty world, carving out a brand that's projected to earn a neat $1 billion by 2022. The youngest entrepreneur on the Forbes Celebrity 100 in 2017, she plans to keep building her burgeoning empire. Even though it can feel like others don't take her seriously because of her age and celebrity, Jenner says she likes "to prove people wrong."
4. Dr. Macrene Alexiades, MD, PhD
Founder of 37 Actives
With three Harvard degrees under her belt, it's clear this woman is one smart cookie. Dr. Alexiades' high-end skincare line is the product of years of research, work in her own dermatology practice and experience as an attending physician. It's a science-based, plant-derived skincare line that goes beyond industry standards in testing and results. Alexiades' education alone is a testament to her investment in her product. She calls 37 Actives her brainchild and the passion of her life.
5. Tata Harper
Founder and co-CEO of Tata Harper Skincare
After her stepfather was diagnosed with cancer, Harper became concerned about the toxicity of ingredients we're exposed to every day. She channeled that concern into creating a safe, toxin-free skincare line that still feels luxurious. She says her Colombian roots taught her a valuable lesson about the philosophy of beauty that all businesswomen would do well to remember: Beauty shouldn't be "a chore or a luxury, but something you [do] to make yourself happy."
6. Kim Kardashian West
Founder and CEO of KKW Beauty
The Kardashian name may have given her a leg up, but Kardashian has fought tooth and nail to make it to the top since then. Her cosmetics company is a massive success: When it launched last June, the line sold out in about three hours, and it continues to be in hot demand.
The reality queen's best business advice? "If you find something you're really passionate about, figure out a way to make that your job. Then you'll be happy. If you aren't doing what you want to do, you'll be frustrated."
7. Rose-Marie Swift
Founder of RMS Beauty
Not many makeup artists can say their work has been featured in Vogue, but even fewer can say their work has been featured in Vogue in six countries. Swift got her start with the most exquisite brands and models in the world before starting her own line, RMS Beauty, after becoming wary of the toxic chemicals in typical cosmetics.
This makeup queen's advice? If you don't like what you see on the market, change it. "I started studying what was out there, got pissed off, then started my own brand," Swift explains in a recent Coveteur interview.
8. and 9. KJ Miller and Amanda Johnson
Founders and co-CEOs of Mented Cosmetics
Like Rose-Marie Swift, Miller saw a gap in the market: Makeup designed specifically for women of color. Mented Cosmetics offers everything from foundation to nail polish in shades for all skin tones.
These lady-bosses found their stride by understanding their market firsthand. "Because we are our customer, we've found product development to be one of our biggest strengths," Miller has said. The brand is slowly expanding its vegan, customer-driven offerings, boasting more than 24K Instagram followers.
10. Sara Blakely
Founder of Spanx
Sometimes inspiration comes to you the hard way — like when you're in the middle of getting ready for a night out and can't find underwear that doesn't make your outfit look frumpy. That's exactly what happened to Sara Blakely before she invested $5,000 into creating an undergarment that could be worn under white slacks.
It was a brilliant idea: Blakley is now a billionaire and one of the most powerful women in the world, according to Forbes. She believes in failing big, but also encourages aspiring entrepreneurs to fully develop their ideas before sharing them with the world. Today, the Spanx brand includes trendy options for younger women through the Assets line.
11. Beyoncé
Co-founder of Ivy Park
Whether she's slaying the stage, playing mom to her three kids or taking on the casual fashion world, there just isn't much Queen Bey can't do well. She cofounded the activewear line Ivy Park, now sold at popular retailers like Nordstrom and Topshop.
Beyoncé knows better than anyone the importance of conceiving and building your personal brand. "The world will see you the way you see you, and treat you the way you treat yourself," she famously told Vanity Fair.
12. Sophia Amoruso
Founder of Nasty Gal and Girlboss
This artsy, young urbanite created her own online clothing store after eBay allegedly suspended her account in 2008. Boohoo purchased her smashing success, Nasty Gal, in mid 2017. Amoruso then founded Girlboss Media, a newsource meant to inspire and motivate women and help them redefine success for themselves. Naming her new brand after the book she wrote in 2014, Amoruso is helping to change the way women in the beauty and lifestyle writing industry are treated by offering all of her employees — including interns — benefits like unlimited paid time off, paid maternity leave, fully paid healthcare and more.
13. and 14. Nicolette Mason and Gabi Gregg
Founders of Premme
Sick of frumpy designs that made them feel like an afterthought, Mason and Gregg launched the plus-size Premme line in the summer of 2017. Offering affordable prices and designs women actually want to wear, these ladies are poised to take the fashion world by storm.
As a queer woman, Mason prides herself on putting a unique alternative spin on the often straight-laced fashion world. Telling GO magazine, "People really underestimate the power of visibility," Mason is inspired to design clothes for women who might otherwise feel invisible.
15. Susanne Kaufmann
Founder and owner of Susanne Kaufmann
Designing a beauty brand good enough for Nordstrom and Net-a-Porter is no small feat. But Kaufmann has managed to do just that with her winning combination of science-proven results and nature-friendly formulas.
This fierce woman runs her brand alongside her family's hotel in Austria's Bergen forest, the beautiful natural area that inspired her collection in the first place. Her advice for running a small business empire while still having time to be a great mom and wife? "It is important to hand over some of the responsibility to other people," Kaufmann told W Magazine, delegating what she can to those she trusts.
16. Madonna
Founder of MDNA Skin
This legendary pop star is making a name for herself beyond ballads, divulging beauty secrets from her luxury skincare line. She's recently announced plans to collaborate with Kim Kardashian on more amazing beauty products.
But it's not just about looking pretty: Madonna wants to change the way society talks about older women. "We need to stop talking about aging like it's something negative. […] Why can't we just be the age that we are and look amazing all of the time?" Madonna said in a recent interview with Refinery29. At nearly 60 years old, this influential idol has proven that girlish beauty isn't required to build a successful beauty brand.

On paper, Stanford's 4-0 win over Cal women's tennis Friday morning indicates a decisive victory for the cardinal and white, but the final score is not always indicative of what happened on the court.
The Bears may have failed to secure a point, but they made things interesting against the Cardinal's heavy hitters early on in Palo Alto.
That duo proved why they've emerged as one of head coach Amanda Augustus' top pairings this season as they secured a critical win over the No. 56 pair of juniors Caroline Lampl and Kimberly Yee, 7-5.
Unfortunately for the Bears, that early spark provided by Bright and Glozman didn't last much longer. Before Bright and Glozman's upset, Cardinal sophomore Emily Arbuthnott and freshman Michaela Gordon proved why they deserve their No. 3 doubles ranking, to the tune of a 6-1 victory against junior Olivia Hauger and freshman Julia Rosenqvist, Cal's top duo.
With Stanford and Cal tied at one apiece in doubles, the tie-breaking doubles match came down to court three, where freshman Hana Mraz and junior Maria Smith tangoed with Stanford junior Melissa Lord and freshman Janice Shin.
Although Lord and Smith are familiar faces to the rivalry, Mraz and Shin were getting their first taste of the Big Slam event. After a back-and-forth affair, Lord and Shin prevailed, 7-5 — good enough for Stanford to grab a 1-0 overall lead.
Cal sent the message that Stanford would have to earn its final conference win.
The Cardinal responded by showing little mercy the rest of the way. All six of Stanford's singles players came into play nationally ranked, accentuated by Gordon's No. 22 label on court one.
Appropriately, it was Gordon's 6-2, 6-4 win over the No. 34-ranked Rosenqvist that sent the Bears to an early exit.
A sluggish start across the board from Cal's lineup allowed Stanford's singles players to snag early showers as Bright, Glozman and Hauger's matches were left unfinished after the match was conceded prematurely.
While the Bears ultimately came up empty-handed in their annual trip down the peninsula, they certainly didn't start things out unprepared. Playing without senior All-American Karla Popovic this season has forced the young team to adapt, and there are plenty of positive takeaways even on the short end of a 4-0 match.
With an 11-8 overall record to its name, Cal will make an even further trip down south to Ojai, California, where the Bears will compete in the Pac-12 Championships as the No. 4 seed starting Wednesday. Stanford, UCLA and Arizona State currently slot in ahead of Cal — these are all teams that pushed the Bears to their limits earlier this season.
The Bears are slated to face Washington State in the quarterfinals in a match for which the winner will advance to a rematch with Stanford.


What's the difference between "I'm sorry" and "my bad?" Not much, unless you're saying it to someone at a funeral. Context matters, and it's true for deep linking, where context can be a game changer for everything from UX and analytics to growth and user retention.
Before we explain what we mean by context, we have to take a step back. It's clear that basic deep linking is table stakes for growth on mobile. Most of the big players are already doing it, and if they aren't, they will be soon. A few of them are even doing it well—AirBNB, Uber, and Yelp come to mind.
But there's a problem with basic deep linking. It's caused some to label the method a failed promise, and it's caused by the black boxes that we call app stores.
Click a deep link, and you'll go from wherever you found the link (be it Facebook, email, SMS, whatever) straight to the content that the deep link wants you to see. Whoever made the link gets a bunch of useful data about what just happened, and you get to move seamlessly between apps that, before deep linking, functioned as walled gardens. Everyone wins.
But it only works if you have the app installed. If you don't, you're sent to a download page, you download the app, and to get to the content you wanted, you have to go back, find the link, and try again. It's frustrating, and in a world where over 60% of mobile app users drop off less than 24 hours after download, developers can't really afford frustrating UX.
When the deep link fails, those developers lose data, too. Enter the app store, and it strips all of the information attached to your deep link. No one wins.
Enter contextual deep linking, a method that helps pass data around the app store's wall. It solves basic deep linking's biggest problem. Imagine you're competing with Eventbrite. You implement contextual deep linking. Your deep link is deferred through the install process. Now, your onboarding process is way, way smoother than theirs—and you also know more about your new users. You retain more users (because, after all, one click is better than three or four), you grow faster, you IPO, you're king of the world.
Do you know who does contextual deep links better than anyone else? We'll give you one guess.
Branch links work on SMS, email, web, and social. They move users to content seamlessly. They give developers more information about users, and power our growth tools like referral programs and content sharing. Contextual deep links are the business, and no one does them like Branch.

Video: Warning over black henna temporary tattoos
James Wilson (6) whose arms have blistered badly after having Henna tattoos done whilst on holiday
The British Skin Foundation is issuing a warning this summer over so-called 'black henna' temporary tattoos (BHTTs) after research among dermatologists reveals they are seeing an increase in reactions at their clinics.
Parents hoping to treat their children to a temporary tattoo on holiday or at the funfair, along with party-goers at festivals may not realise the dangers of BHTT.
The majority of BHTT are not based on henna at all, but a substance called para-phenylenediamine (PPD) which is found in hair dyes.
PPD is allowed for use in hair dye, but its use for skin contact products such as temporary tattoos is illegal in the European Union.
When PPD is used on the skin in this way it can cause blistering, painful skin burns and may even lead to scarring. It can also leave the person with a lifelong sensitivity to PPD, which increases the risk of a severe allergic reaction when using hair dye in the future.
The British Skin Foundation survey found:
· 4 out of 10 dermatologists asked had seen patients with skin reactions to BHTTs.
· 1 in 20 dermatologists approached said that over 80% of the BHTT reactions they had seen were in children aged under 16.
· Dermatologists asked confirmed that around half of the patients got a BHTT outside of the EU, where the legal status of PPD is not always clear; however the other half got a BHTT within the EU, with 27% of these in the UK.
· About two-thirds of dermatologists approached have seen an increase in patients with reactions to hair dyes, many of whom have previously had a BHTT.
Dr Anjali Mahto, Consultant Dermatologist & British Skin Foundation spokesperson, said: "Black henna is well known to cause skin reactions and should be treated with caution, particularly in children."
The decision to issue this warning is backed by the Cosmetic, Toiletry & Perfumery Association (CTPA).
Dr Christopher Flower, Director-General CTPA, said: "The message is clear; having a 'black henna' temporary tattoo presents a significant risk of a very nasty adverse reaction to the tattoo itself.

"It also increases the risk of either not being able to use most hair dyes in the future or having a bad reaction to them if the warnings are ignored.
"This summer, parents will want to keep their children safe, by steering clear of so-called 'black henna' temporary tattoo."

Longest pedestrian suspension bridge opens in Czech resort
The 2,365-foot-long Sky Bridge 721, as it is known, is built at an altitude of more than 3,610 feet above sea level.
Watch: First visitors cross record-breaking new suspension bridge
May 13, 2022, 12:58 PM UTC / Source: Associated Press
A pedestrian suspension bridge that is the longest such construction in the world has opened at a mountain resort in the Czech Republic.
The 2,365-foot-long bridge is built at an altitude of more than 3,610 feet above sea level. It connects two ridges of the mountains and hangs up to 312 feet above the valley below.
Sky Bridge 721, as it is known, is located in the northeastern part of the country in the Kralicky Sneznik mountain range near the border with Poland, some 125 miles east of Prague.
The bridge offers unusual views for visitors who have a head for heights. Up to 500 people will be allowed to be on the bridge at any one time, although that number is halved for the first two weeks following Friday's opening.

The bridge will be closed for safety reasons if winds reach 84 mph.
The construction took two years and cost some 200 million Czech crowns ($8.3 million).
Critics say the bridge is too big for the surrounding environment, while others argue it will attract too many tourists to the town, which has a population of less than 500.
CzechTourism believes the bridge could attract tourists from all around the globe.
Theo Scheepens, 59, from the Netherlands was one of the first.
"Marvelous, impressive, the bridge moves, so you think something is going to happen," he said. "I wonder what is going to happen when it is windy. It is terrific weather, we are very blessed.
The previous longest such bridge is in Arouca, Portugal, and is 1,693 feet long.

If you are ordering these studs as part of a set I will endeavour to match the tones of the pearls as, due to their organic nature, there can be variations in colour.

Wyoming Valley Antique Car Club holds 47th annual antique car and truck display By Gary Towner | Posted: Thursday, August 21, two thousand fourteen Ten:30 am Car buffs and "gearheads" viewed antique and classic cars and trucks, hot rods, customs, and motorcycles at the Wyoming Valley Antique Car Club's 47th annual antique car and truck display Saturday, Aug.


When under investigation by the police for felony sale or manufacture of a controlled substance or misdemeanor possession of a controlled substance, you should retain the services of competent counsel immediately. It is imperative that you make no statements until represented.
Any police officer telling you that it will go "easy for you" if you cooperate with them watches too many television shows. The only party who may make a deal regarding your charges or sentencing is the District Attorney of the local county where you have been arrested and/or charged. Police officers cannot make any deals for you unless approved by the District Attorney's Office. Any statements you make will be used against you and shall make your situation worse.
Any time you have been charged with a drug offense, you can be sure of two things. These charges are very serious. And, they can alter the course of your life completely. The prosecutors and the police aggressively pursue and prosecute these crimes. It is so important for you to understand that you will be over charged with numerous counts of the same or similar offenses even from a single form of conduct.
"I was falsely accused of bringing drugs into a prison. They told me that they were felonies and I would go to prison for two years if I was found guilty. Mr. Steve fought these charges for me and the court dismissed them." – Robert W.
Mandatory sentencing in the state of Pennsylvania has been a crutch the District Attorney's Office has relied upon for well over a decade. Any prior drug offenses and convictions also will make your sentencing more difficult for you. It is absolutely imperative that you fight any type of drug related arrest for these and other reasons.
A charge for any drug offense will be a minimum of six months license suspension but this also increases with the number of offenses. You can lose your license. You could suffer a license suspension which increases with a second and third offense.
There are numerous programs for first time offenders which allow for problems with drug addiction, Veterans Court, Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition, and boot camp. These are usually for first time offenders and are included for felony offenses. However, you must have competent counsel to ensure that you consider these various options. They are not always for everyone who has contact with the police, but it is a consideration you must be willing to make.
If your matter cannot be resolved by a pre-trial disposition and you are forced to go to trial, there are still numerous things which can be done on your behalf. These include filings of discovery and suppression motions, questioning the probable cause for the investigation and your arrest.
You should realize that high level drug dealers are not the only persons prosecuted. This rarely occurs in the local system. Typically, the person doing a favor for a friend or just selling drugs to assist their own addiction are the ones that get arrested and prosecuted most frequently.
