The idea, at least in part, seemed to be to give more attention to a team lost in the fog of racism and a riot. I never felt like that happened. I couldn't tell you what the undefeated 1962 Mississippi team did well or who were the key players on the team. The highlights made them look like a team which made key plays to win every game, which doesn't separate them from any team in an NFL Films post season wrap up. I learned about their achievements and I learned a little bit about who they were away from the field, but the team itself still seemed lost among everything else.
If it wasn't about the football team, it might have been about our willingness to remember things we'd rather not, but seemed to come down to "let's remember what other people did while not totally holding it against them, and make sure not to look to close how people close to us acted", which is not the most satisfying theme.
Re-enactness usually come off to me as hokey, but how it was done here amidst all the interviews of the riot. That whole section was the strongest portion of the documentary.
It is crazy to see a full football stadium all waving confederate flags. I don't normally feel sheltered, but I did then. It didn't even look like something of the past, it looked like something of an alternate time line.
They didn't do polls after the season! There are so many smart people in colleges and universities, and they've always had the dumbest ways of determining the best football teams.
I did not remember Ben Wilson; I was kid outside of Chicago when he died, but I wouldn't have been known about high school basketball (or basketball entirely) at that point, and I only had the vaguest recollection of his name. Somehow, I do remember Mary Wilson as a person who'd be mentioned on local news, but did not realize it was Ben's mom until late in the movie. The idea that Benji was a revered player in Chicago even today is probably true, but there are a lot of different Chicagos.
And on the other side, Watson did not come across as in the movie as certain a future star as those in the documentary were guaranteeing. He was called the #1 Junior in the country after a camp, but at what appears to be the early days of ranking prep players. Even today, those rankings aren't reliable accurate as to future success and a lot can change; the movie noted Nick Anderson transferring to the school and others complaining about Simeon being too loaded by two top guys together. Anderson went on to have an okay NBA career, something anyone should be happy with, but not exactly the equal of Magic Johnson with a jumpshot. The limited footage of Watson playing showed a very good high school player, but not someone who was leaps and bounds better than his competition (like Ronald Dupree in his 30 for 30.) There were warning signs in Watson's life of trouble – no one in his family knew he was serious with a girl, and it turns out he's a father? – and there's a pool room of people laughing about how they were already planning on living off him the rest as soon as he made any money. This could've gone wrong in so many other ways.
The most affecting scene in the movie was the high school memorial to Benji, where his classmates fell into hysterical grieving during a song. That got to me about how much Benji meant to them and how much it hurt he was gone, more than any scouting ranking or #1 finger pose. Their friend and hero was gone and they were devastated. I could've used more about Ben Watson the person and less Ben Watson the highly recruited basketball prospect.
Tracking down the guy who killed Watson and finding out what exactly happen – that it was simply a stupid act of violence by a kid who thought he had to prove something to the world – was daring but it gave the movie an extra dimension. Not being able to talk to Watson's girlfriend felt like a hole the other way.
I did like this one. It's just – for a movie about a death, I feel like I know more about how everyone else felt about him then I do about the deceased himself. A large part of Ben Watson's story is his impact on everyone else, but the man himself seemed like a basketball legend and not a person.
A Kansas basketball recruiting film doubling as a crazy fan trying to bilk people out of millions of dollars for a piece of paper. They worked hard to emphasis the importance of the paper and it's connection to the school, but it's still a piece of paper. The bit near the end, where they point out the other items on auction are an original signed copy of the Emancipation Proclamation and a flag from Custer's Last Stand and try to say the rules of basketball are just as big was typically delusional for most of the show. No one's in any danger of forgetting James Naismith or the game of basketball if the original rules are sitting in someone's attic or burned in the fireplace. It's an insane premise.
The auction scene was dramatic, but I wasn't convinced it was honest. The first half hour was spent with the lead faking people that he was filming a documentary about the rules when he really had some other plan going on, and I'm not totally convinced that ended after the first half hour. I'm not totally being paranoid; the documentary led the viewer to believe they were seeing his complete trip from the announcement of the auction to the auction itself, but his highlight reel pitch package includes footage of Josh talking to ex-Kansas players (and Jay Bilas!) with no particular explanation of how it got there. That auction scene at the end is super dramatic if we don't know how far the Booths will go to pay for the rules (and pretend Josh doesn't know either), but maybe we only didn't know because that part was also just not included.
This was not the worst one of the two seasons, but it's not one I'd ever need to see again.
I tend to write to talk out my thoughts, but this was a time where I needed to talk before writing my thoughts. To that end, a snippit of a phone conversation.
His case was based on physiques – Lewis looked like a world class sprinter, Ben Johnson looked like muscle monster – and Johnson's sudden surprising rise. If they were both using stuff, Lewis should've been blowing Johnson away, not waching in shock as Johnson flew past him.
My case was partially informed by what came the day after – 11 people testifying Lance Armstrong was using. It's tough to believe the top guy isn't using when everyone chasing him did. It was also partially informed by the discussion on the associated Simmons/Gladwell podcast, where two dots in the movie – "HGH creates changes in the jaw require braces for those in their mid-20s" and "Carl Lewis, wearing braces" – were connected for me even before I saw it myself. Mostly, it's that I've followed sports and psuedo-sports where PED usage is rampant, where the performance gain may be there but the Hulk-like physiques are not always, and my benefit of the doubt have been exhausted.
The unresolved question about Lewis is where the documentary leaves you, and it's not really where I expected to be stepping off. It's track, there's always that question, but the first 3/4ths of the movie is more about Ben Johnson and Canada's track team's path to that race in Seoul and the ensuing fall out. It's an interesting examination about how far a country – but just a person, but the sporting resources of a motivated nation – will go to achieve gold.
That story gets told, but it also gets flipped on it's head in the last stretch: most of the others in the race are shown to have committed similar crimes and the US team more or less admits to spiking Johnson's test results to trigger a positive. ("Maybe I did, maybe I didn't" is the greatest non-denial denial ever.) I wouldn't mind watching a lot of 30 for 30s again, but twist at the end made me want to see again immediately, just to rewatch in the totally different context presented by the end of the movie.
The exact end of the movie, with the drug tester pointing out they got the guy, so job done, kind of fell flat unless it was supposed to be ironic. If we're to believe the story Johnson tells, his drink had been spiked for months and he hadn't been caught, and the actual substances he was using were never caught. (Going back, Johnson's doctor shocked reaction to the drug he tested positive for suggests it was the spiked drug that was caught, not whatever he was actually on.) Johnson was using whatever he was using regularly from the time he started to challenge Lewis, and he was only caught the last time. Drug testing failed dozens of times, and only got a win with help.
If you want stretch, Johnson being caught may be have been a determent to the PED fighting culture; it surely scared people of for a time, but it probably also convinced drug testers that they were closer to stopping the problem than they actually were. It's like someone playing on slot machines who finally hits on a winning set after losing 40 times, forget they've lost each time, finally gets a winning combination, and thinks what they're doing is working. I'm not saying down with drug testing, but to put any praise towards it based on Ben Johnson being caught would be missing the big picture.
It's 25 years later and not a lot has really changed. When the female sprinter explained how they wouldn't use the drugs in competition, just in training, and stop in time for it to get out of their system before testing, I thought about how many times Dave Meltzer has explained the same technique being used by MMA fighters today. The drug testers know it too, it's a nut they can't crack without doing more testing.
9.78* was entertaining and gave you something to think about after the fact. It's one of the better ones they've done. I'm not so convinced next week's will be that way – in fact, I've looked at the description and figured I probably wouldn't bother if I wasn't challenging myself to be a completest – but it might surprise me. This one did.
What they covered, the situations and the pitfalls. The depth and breadth in a half hour was immense. It was also sort of the biggest flaw; there was so much information and nothing in between that it was just mind numbing after a half hour. There need to be breaths, there was no breaths. It made any moment where a speaker paused (usually for reflection) stick out even more stronger, because here was a rare couple of seconds where nothing was being heard (except for the repetitive background music) and you could gather your thoughts as they gathered theirs. It was constant hammering; at least you didn't need to see every nail pushed into follow the story, but they had a lot of nails they wanted to pound.
It was good! It would've been better as 2 hour show with zero extra content is what I"m saying.
Andre Rison was MVP. They had to have someone with his attitude, and they needed someone besides those who had it figured out from the start and from the sad guys who didn't figure it until too late. Rison clearly didn't figure it out until it was too late, but he didn't show – or he kept his glasses on to not show it and that worked too.
Herm Edwards doing the Herm Edwards bit as someone I could most do with out. Everyday, any platform.
I thought they reached for a happy ending without actually proving things were getting better. From a marketing standpoint, this was probably a good one to start with to get people talking about the series, but I prefer the documentaries which are narrower on one story, not just trying to cover a trend. Next week's sounds a bit more what I'm looking for.


I have made it, used and enjoyed it. He didn't use it in many of his videos that followed, which quite a few people picked up if you read the comments for his videos. I think he did eventually make a curry or 2 using the base gravy. It is a full gravy but it is quite good in my opinion.

Myself and my friend Chris went fishing on our local Lake. We started out at 5:30 am to the bait shop on the Lake. We bought 2 dozen live herring and anchored up on some structure in 33 feet of water. After about 20 minutes Chris had a bite, he landed a 28 inch walleye. At first he thought it was a crappie because the fish did not fight that much. But as he started bringing her up off the bottom his rod bent over and I said it's a nice fish he still didn't ask for the net until he saw the walleye surface then he screamed with excitement and said "net" "net" big walleye. The fish weighed in at 7 lbs. 13 oz. We released her to spawn in the spring. Late we moved to another spot where I set up a slip bobber rig with a live herring, I casted out and started getting another rod ready to drop down deep. I looked up and said where is my bobber? The drag on my Pflueger reel started screaming out, I set the hook and reeled in this 22 inch largemouth bass.

Kick off a project so that it is set up to succeed?
Increase staff involvement and commitment on a key project?
Manage limited resources to create the highest business value possible?
Establish proactive behavior among project team members?
Project management skills, tools and techniques are best understood through experiential, hands-on and relevant application. This project management simulation training course integrates all the major project management topics and techniques into a 'cradle-to-grave' project simulation. It challenges project teams to run a critical project, creating the highest possible business value – on time and budget. Project teams learn and apply techniques from the entire project life-cycle. The simulation is an actual project that requires hands-on planning and execution – it is NOT a computer game. As a result, the simulation flexes to the environment and the capability of the participants and becomes a revealing mirror for understanding their own project practices.
The project management simulation training course follows the life of a project, and each technique is carefully presented so participants can successfully apply it to the simulation in a way that makes sense to their project realities. The simulation includes regular 'lessons learned' activities to facilitate the transfer of training to the participants' actual projects. Due to the intense team cooperation required, this is also an ideal format for gaining lessons on team dynamics and navigating complex and matrixed environments.
Anyone associated with programs and projects, from sponsors to team members to key stakeholders, benefits from understanding the tools of project management. Program and project managers, team leaders, and managers overseeing multiple projects will get the greatest benefit from this course.
To speak with an LSA Expert and learn about the project management simulation training customization and delivery options onsite at your company, please contact us.

Band of the Day: New Terminal Boy
Here's an eclectic one for you.
Jon: We all live in West Yorkshire, but originally I was born and grew up in Wales.
Giuseppe: Yes, we live in and around Leeds and I come from Apulia region (Southern Italy), basically the famous heel!
Bryan: Wakefield for me.
Neil: Coventry but I now live in Leeds.
J: They were looking for a drummer and put an advert online, I applied and now they're stuck with me!
B: Met online through JoinMyBand.
N: I answered an advert which G put out online for a singer, joined, then we immediately lost the bass player and drummer! Sorted now though.
G: Well, when Neil joined in early 2015, I was playing with a bassist from Manchester and this guy quit immediately, I don't remember very well why. After one year of playing with a drum machine and another newbie bassist, we found Jon and finally, after again a year, Bryan. However, in 2014 I already founded the band in London with a bassist friend of mine (called G like me), but I had to leave London for personal reasons and thus restart the band from scratch here in Yorkshire.
J: About 3 years.
B: About 2 years or so now for me I think?
N: As the current 4 piece unit, around 3 years but me and G have been doing this for a lot longer.
G: It's a (bad) mix up of New Model Army (an old English post-punk band) and "20th Century Boy" by T. Rex. That reflects a bit my love for post-punk, folk and glam rock music. About "terminal", well, it's the ambiguous term of the whole equation… many people feel confused by it and what it could mean. However, I have to say that is intended only as computer as were called in the '70s… and here another parenthesis is opened… the name contains a kind of criticism against our Western societies or some aspects at least.
J: Some of the bands that have had the greatest influence on me musically are System Of A Down, Mastodon, Gojira and Deftones.
B: Quite a few bands, mostly punk / pop punk / ska for me with a bit of metal and occasionally acoustic stuff, such as Alkaline Trio, Blink 182, Zebrahead, Offspring, SOAD, Frank Turner.
G: I grew up listening casually vintage Italian pop music, because of my parents' tastes. But at the end of my teen years I discovered heavy metal music, the old classic bands I mean. So, yeah, roughly my main influences are those above.
N: So many… Personally I'm a child of Britpop and that's what got me into music in the first place so the likes of Oasis are my main influence, but I'm a musical magpie, I'll steal from anywhere and everywhere if it sounds good.
J: G is probably the best person to ask about this, as he's the main songwriter. Each band member has their own influences that they bring to the music. It's a real mix of styles but we make it work.
B: We have a bit of variety in our songs, a bit of punk, prog, acoustic, some ska.
N: Post-punk indie rock with hints of metal, ska, punk and many others as Bryan and Jon say. We're keen to not be pigeon-holed.
N: I tend to write from a position of anger, whatever's pissing me off that week! I try and not be too obvious but there are political themes throughout my writing and definitely an active dislike of the modern narcissistic nature of society. The landscape of life in the 21st century has been a rich lyrical hunting ground for me so far and there's no sign of that changing any time soon either.
J: Loud, intense and thoroughly entertaining. Maybe about 20.
B: Very loud, try to avoid the drummer as much as possible so I don't go deaf! With this band maybe 15 or so, in total probably around 40-50.
G: Yep, I agree with you, guys. As New Terminal Boy, around a couple of dozens, while as "musician" probably more than 60.
N: Our social media output always describes the live show as "glorious noise" which is a lyric from our song "Jack of Clubs". It's loud, I shout a lot and offload a lot of emotion at the crowd. We don't have much to work with beyond the music so it's all about that.
J: Our guitarist G starting a mosh pit!
B: Seen a guy crowd surf on a inflatable surf board all the way from the stage to the end of the crowd and back to the stage.
G: But, Jon, unfortunately I started that mosh pit only after that our gig!
N: I saw the frontman of a band once offer on the entire crowd for a fight. Didn't work out well for him.
J: I use Paiste cymbals, Aquarian drumheads and Vater drumsticks. I'm open to endorsement offers for drum kits though!
B: I have a mania and ESP bass. Use Neil's bass amp and a Sennheiser mic if I use my own.
G: As quite old-fashioned dude, only standard Fender (Stratocaster) and Gibson (Flying V), plus a Laney VC30-210. I love the sound of 10" speakers even though the clean sound is "eaten" a little, but it's the price to pay. Finally, a Jekyll & Hyde OD/Distortion pedal (first version) and the only one digital piece I own, a Korg DT-10 as tuner. Basically, a pretty dry sound in the end.
N: I have a Takamine electric-acoustic which sometimes makes an appearance but not always (I'm a singer, not a musician) and my basic vanilla Shure SM58 mic.
J: Our new album Nowhere; Now Here is the main thing we're promoting at the moment.
B: As Jon said, the new album Nowhere; Now Here.
N: Yeah, obviously our first self-produced album. We've had it in the pipeline for a good long whole and we're really proud of it. I think it gives a really good account of us as band and it's hopefully going to do well for us.
J: We've got a few gigs lined up over the summer, including a festival in Berwick which I'm very excited about.
B: Get more gigs and look into writing new songs.
G: About the new songs, a dozen are almost ready to be played and there are chances they'll be release altogether as new album by the end of next year!
N: More gigs, more music, more New Terminal Boy!
J: We've played with some incredible bands around Leeds over the years but I'm going to be boring and pick a few of my favourite bands. System Of A Down would be the headliners, with Deftones as the opener.
B: Would love to support Streetlight Manifesto as I've never seen them before and Offspring before us.
N: I'd love to be able to share a bill with Maximo Park, they've been one of my favourite live bands for years and always deliver a brilliant performance. Before us (they'd probably deserve to be ahead but that's not the question) but I'm mates with a band called Silverlode who straddle more musical styles than us but are a wonderful set of musicians. Check them out.
G: Not sure how I can reply, I have too many bands in mind. Maybe I could put on the table (not in a particular order) Smashing Pumpkins, John Frusciante, Radiohead and Uli Jon Roth, not mentioning some old Italian rock bands I really love (one above all, CCCP Fedeli alla Linea).

Special screening of BUNKER held for Indian Armed forces on account of Army Day in Delhi
Murtaza Ali Khan 7:15:00 PM Bunker , entertainment , Jugal Raja Edit
On the occasion of Army Day in India, a special screening of the movie BUNKER was organized at Films Division Delhi, for personnel from the army. The special screening was attended by Brigadier R.R Singh and his family, along with 30 soldiers from ADGTA. Brig. R R Singh shared, "The movie Bunker has captured the soldier's feelings and what thoughts play on their minds perfectly." One soldier opined, "It's a good thing that the moviemakers have shown the family as a heroine in the film, which is the case in reality". The soon to be released and India's first Anti-War movie Bunker is aimed to bring the stories of million soldiers to the masses.
Director Jugal Raja's Bunker tells one such story of Lieutenant Vikram Singh (Played by actor Abhijeet Singh) as a lone survivor with a fatal injury in a secret Bunker at the LOC in Poonch, Jammu, which has been hit by a mortar shell during a ceasefire violation. The movie is all set to release on 17th Jan 2020 in a theater near you, come and support the armed forces.
Writer - Director Jugal Raja shared, "Today was the best day of our lives as the soldiers for whom we have made the film, saw it with us and appreciated it very much. Hearing from them, that we could properly emote their untold feelings is the biggest success we could achieve for BUNKER".
95% of the movie was shot in a 12 by 8 feet Bunker in a record 5 days! The Bunker here is used as a metaphor for a soldier's mind which is always at conflict with the thought of having to stay away from family and duty towards the country, and it will definitely give you a feel of patriotism. 96% of the soldiers feel discussing mental health or accepting any mental health problems holds a big stigma. There are approximately 1.4 million soldiers in India and 100 soldiers have committed suicide every year since 2003. The film brings up important issues like Mental Health, Inter-Personal Relationships between Army families and how a soldier and his family pay the ultimate price for cross border tensions.
Lead Actor Abhijeet Singh shared, "I am very excited about today's special screening with the soldiers from the Indian Army. The whole experience of sharing the theater with the soldiers and hearing their appreciation for us has left me speechless and was surreal". He further added, "I underwent a strict regime while prepping for the movie where I had prosthetics on my face for nearly 18-20 hours a day. The entire movie experience has been a difficult & transitional journey for me. The character of Vikram Singh is like every other soldier whom one can relate, making it human and organic".
National Award-Winning singer Rekha Bhardwaj has also lent her voice for a heartfelt rendition, a peace anthem "Lautke Ghar Jaana Hai", which is an integral part of the narrative.

LiverpoolLashes Beauty Blog: Shellac Shelf Sitters Transformed Into Winter Wonders!
Shellac Shelf Sitters Transformed Into Winter Wonders!
Today's post is another on shelf sitters because I've realised something after asking around what colours different nail technicians find to be their least popular. As I gazed at the lists people gave me, I realised that some salons use a colour constantly whilst others have never used the same shade at all. I am convinced that if we don't like a colour personally, this is reflected in our clients choices as its likely we do not have many colour pops using that shade and we also don't point it out to them to catch their intention with it. I think we should all focus on each of the unloved colours and ensure that there are at least five suggestions for our clients to see.
I have chosen a small selection of shades from various nail technicians and realised that they all have something in common, they would be brilliant teamed with Nordic, woolly jumper style prints. With that in mind I have purchased MoYou London Festive Collection Plate 04 from Creative Academy Manchester to show you some of my suggestions and I am absolutely delighted with them!
Some of these shades aren't personally shelf sitters of mine but they're definitely not used as often. I looked at other colours that I would automatically think of and I think that this style of print would be fantastic for them and actually, something I would be keen to wear myself.
I hope you've enjoyed this post! As always, please make sure you're following me on Facebook for the latest posts, as they're posted!

On Nov. 16, 2007, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that it had seized 12,682 applicator tubes of a product called Age Intervention Eyelash, worth approximately $2 million. The FDA, in its press release, alleges that the distributor was promoting the product's use to increase eyelash growth, i.e. a drug use, and the FDA had not approved that use for this cosmetic product. This seizure is one of several enforcement actions or warnings issued by the agency in 2007 to companies for making unapproved drug claims on cosmetic-type products. Typically, these claims arise from representations of a product's ability to provide a therapeutic or prophylactic benefit—claims usually found on the product labeling or on other promotional materials, including distributor Web sites. Once the line is crossed and a cosmetic is promoted as providing therapeutic or prophylactic uses or benefits, that product triggers FDA regulations governing drugs or products containing drugs. If those promoted uses or benefits were not pre-authorized by the FDA, then they are considered false and misleading, and the product is deemed misbranded. As the FDA's recent actions suggest, the cost of noncompliance is high.
What's a Cosmetic? What's a Drug?
Discussions related to labeling issues begin with an understanding of the legal definitions of "cosmetic" and of "drug." A "cosmetic" is an article intended to be applied to the human body for "cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness, or altering the appearance without affecting the body's structure or functions." Products such as shampoos, perfumes and makeup fit this definition; however, not all products meeting this definition are cosmetics. Consider soap. Certain soap products, consisting primarily of an alkali salt of fatty acid and that do not make use claims other than for cleansing the human body, are not regulated as cosmetics.
A "drug" is defined in the Food, Drug and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act as an article "(A) intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease ... and (B) articles (other than food) intended to affect the structure or any function of the body of man or other animals." Before a new drug can be marketed legally, it must be approved by the FDA as safe and effective.
But certain cosmetics satisfy both definitions. A product that is intended for use as a cosmetic but that is also intended for use to prevent or treat a disease or to affect the structure or function of the human body is regulated as a drug and as a cosmetic. The question to ask is whether the cosmetic product can exert a physical as well as a physiological effect on the user. If it can, then likely the cosmetic product is subject to both drug and cosmetic regulations. Toothpaste containing fluoride and shampoos containing an antidandruff treatment are two such examples.
A cosmetic's intended use plays a key role in determining whether that product triggers the drug regulations. Intended use can be ascertained by reviewing claims on labels, promotional materials and Web sites. Consumer expectation and perception of a product's intended use goes toward establishing that concept.
This threshold determination is important if a company intends to market a cosmetic in a way that touts certain uses or benefits that could fall within the drug definition. Cosmetics are not subject to premarket approval by the FDA. Premarket approval is the process where the FDA requires scientific review to ensure the safety and effectiveness of products it oversees. Drugs, on the other hand, are subject to FDA approval, either through the premarket approval process or because the FDA currently recognizes certain drugs or drug ingredients as safe and effective and publishes this recognition in monographs. These monographs identify how certain nonprescription drugs can be used without further premarket approval and what ingredients may be used to make them.
For a company to allege that its cosmetic product provides a benefit or use that meets the definition of a drug, that company must have either done the necessary premarket review with the FDA, or the product or ingredient thereof must be covered by an existing FDA monograph and used in a pre-approved way. Absent that, any representations of a cosmetic product as having an intended use for preventing or treating a disease, or affecting the structure or function of the human body, would be considered an unapproved and misbranded drug.

Munster MHC: Limerick inflict first defeat on Banner
Clare's Jarlath Collins and Cian Galvin chase Cathal O'Neill of Limerick. ©INPHO/James Crombie.
Limerick 0-16
Clare 0-13
Cathal O'Neill posted 0-7 (0-5 from frees) as Limerick secured their first win in this year's Munster MHC at Clare's expense at the LIT Gaelic Grounds.
This win, coupled with two draws from their previous two outings against Cork and Waterford, means the Treaty County can qualify for the Munster final if they beat Tipperary in their final round-robin game at Semple Stadium next Sunday, while a previously unbeaten Clare side must beat Cork in their last fixture if they're to reach the decider.
The Banner got to within a point of Limerick when they reeled off four unanswered points in the closing stages, but injury-time efforts from O'Neill (free) and Adam English sealed victory for the hosts.
The winners established an early 0-3 to 0-0 lead thanks to points from Patrick Reale, Aidan O'Connor and Adam English before Cormac Murphy opened the visitors' account in the 11th minute. O'Neill immediately replied before adding two further points to leave Limerick perched on a 0-6 to 0-2 lead after 18 minutes.
However, Clare finished the half strongly with scores from Kevin Smyth (free), Shane Meehan and Cormac Murphy to trail by the minimum, 0-6 to 0-7, at the break.
Meehan's third point had the sides level within a minute of the restart before a Smyth free nudged them ahead for the first time. But Limerick then took control with scores from Adam Murrihy, Meehan, Liam Lynch and Patrick Kirby to open up a 0-14 to 0-9 lead.
Clare rallied with four points on the trot per Smyth, Dylan Downes and Galvin, but they couldn't regain parity as Diarmuid Mullins' charges had the final say.
Limerick - J Franklin; R Lyons, M Keane, F O'Connor; J Quilty, E Hurley, A Murrihy (0-3); P Kirby (0-1), C Casey; P Reale (0-1), D Hegarty, C O'Neill (0-7, 5f); A O'Connor (0-1), A English (0-2), L Lynch (0-1). Subs: E Stokes for D Hegarty, P O'Donovan for P Reale, C Hanley Clarke for L Lynch.
Clare - A Shanahan; S Devanney, A Hogan, C McGroary; J Collins, C O'Meara, T Butler; O Clune, C Murphy (0-2); S Meehan (0-4), C Galvin (0-1), O O'Donnell; C Hegarty (0-1), D Cahill, K Smyth (0-4f). Subs: S Ronan for D Cahill, D Downes (0-1) for O O'Donnell, K O'Connor for C Murphy, S Punch for K Smyth.
Referee - M Maher.

Blacklight: Tango Down
Platform(s): PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360
Genre: First-Person Shooter
Publisher: Ignition Entertainment
Developer: Zombie Studios
Release Date: Summer 2010
About Adam Pavlacka
PS3/X360/PC Preview - 'Blacklight: Tango Down'
by Adam Pavlacka on May 11, 2010 @ 9:45 a.m. PDT
Blacklight, an Unreal-engine powered video game, is a covert military action epic set twenty-five years in the future featuring the same characters and high caliber military action as the planned movie and comic book, but with unique, intersecting storylines that complement each other.
These days, it seems like every FPS out there has a gimmick of some sort — and in many respects, you have to have one if you want to stand out from the pack. After all, if every FPS used exactly the same mechanics, there would be no point to anything beyond the standard Unreal Tournament. So what hope does the download-only, budget-priced, Blacklight: Tango Down have in an already crowded market? One hell of a gimmick.
Running off a modified version of the Unreal Engine, Blacklight looks sharp and boasts tight controls right out of the gate. Weapons are varied, and loadouts can be customized to a great extent (more than a million possible weapon combinations, according to the PR guy). What caught our eye during a recent round of hands-on time, however, wasn't a weapon, but an ability that can be used by any player on the map, at virtually any time. If implemented correctly, it has the potential to be a game changer.
Called the Hyper Reality Visor (HRV), it is a virtual headset that essentially gives the player thermal-colored X-ray vision. When using the HRV, you can see through walls, have targets automatically identified and know exactly where the enemy players are at all times. Of course, there's a catch. Not only is the HRV time-limited, but using it also requires both of your virtual hands, so it is impossible to fire a weapon. There is also a short delay when switching it off, leaving a moment of vulnerability between using the HRV and getting medieval on your opponent's ass.
It's obvious that a lot of thought went into the use restrictions because during our, admittedly limited, time with Blacklight: Tango Down, the HRV never felt overpowered or unfair. On the flip side, not only was it imminently useful, but it also helped keep the action flowing, especially given that we were only going at it with four players (two versus two). The final version of the game will support up to 16 players per map.
Because both sides had the HRV on hand, we never had to waste time running around the map trying to find one another. Instead, combat was fast and furious, with little to no lapses between skirmishes.
The HRV also has the side effect of making camping an impossible task. While there is likely a handful of players no doubt annoyed at that idea, we are going to guess that the vast majority of FPS gamers will be thrilled at the prospect of a match where camping is a useless tactic. This doesn't mean that snipers are outdated — on the contrary, Blacklight has a very sweet sniper rifle in one of its default weapon sets — it just means that there's no more hiding in an out-of-the-way nook. You take your shot and keep on moving.
Weapon customization also promises to be a draw in Blacklight: Tango Down. As you progress through experience levels with your character, you will be awarded a random weapon tag, which changes the attributes of one of your weapons. These upgrades can be used to customize the default offerings as you see fit. We're a little skeptical of the sheer numbers, but for now, we'll give the developer the benefit of the doubt. After all, there may be tens of thousands of possible variations of a shotgun, but can they really handle all that differently from one another? Here's hoping that the variety promised is more than just superficial.
In terms of game modes, Blacklight: Tango Down is set to ship with a set of 12 different maps and seven different gameplay modes. We got the chance to look at deathmatch, team deathmatch, domination and retrieval. All are fairly straightforward, though there was one nifty twist on the standard control point formula. Instead of just standing next to a control point and waiting for the flag to change color, Blacklight: Tango Down implements a "Simon Says" type minigame.
That's right. When you activate a control point, the computer flashes a pattern of lights on the screen. You need to replicate that pattern in order to capture the point. Screw it up, and you have to start over. Get shot by an opponent, and you have to start over. Yes, we know that minigames in your FPS sounds stupid, but they're not. The mechanics play out quite well and fit right in with the game's "hacking" theme.
Set for release on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC, Blacklight: Tango Down should be identical across platforms with the exception of the PC version offering higher-resolution visuals. No price point is officially set, though the developers said they were expecting to ship with a retail price of approximately $15 (that would be 1200 MS points for Xbox folks).
Blacklight: Tango Down may not have a story mode, but it offers the tantalizing promise of some high-class multiplayer action at a nicely situated low-class price. If things come together the way the team plans, this little shooter could be a surprise hit.

Social Media's Sizzling New Features You Need to Know About
Summer may conjure up lazy days at the beach, but social media platforms have been busy debuting new features. Here's a summer roundup of features you may have missed, so you can incorporate them into your social media strategies.
Is your brand utilizing all of the new features on your favorite social media platforms?
It started in May with an improved inbox. More than 150 million active daily users converse with businesses through Instagram Direct each month, so the platform added more tools for business owners to manage these conversations. You can now star important messages for follow-up, and IG is testing quick replies. In addition, messages now come directly to your inbox instead of languishing in the oft-forgotten Pending section.
Related: Making it Easier to Do Business on Instagram
Then, the popular platform went crazy and introduced five new features in a month! Everyone is talking about IGTV, Instagram's new platform for long-form vertical video content. It's available in the upper right hand corner of your app (next to Instagram Direct), or you can download the standalone IGTV app. Will IGTV become a major competitor to YouTube or fade away over time?
Other new features that may benefit your business include group video chat (now available in Instagram Direct), music and question stickers in Instagram Stories and an updated Explore page. The new stickers can help you show personality, draw more eyes (and ears) to your Stories and increase engagement with fans and customers.

LinkedIn continues to expand its features, so it's important that you maintain an active presence. It's no longer enough to post a resume and forget about it. Even if you're not actively pursuing new employment, this platform presents a multitude of opportunities: making professional connections, strengthening relationships, seeking new clients and establishing yourself as a thought leader in your field.
We enjoy pulling a quote from an article to highlight an important point and encourage conversation, so we're excited to see LinkedIn make it easier to do. Now you can highlight a quote, right click and share it to your feed or message it privately on mobile. It will automatically include a link to the article along with your quote as the caption.
Another exciting new development is the ability to save drafts directly on the LinkedIn platform. Say you're browsing articles and find three that you'd like to share. Share them, write your caption (or pull a quote) and save as a draft. You can share it at a future date in order to share your content at optimal times for your audience.
The Posts & Activity shortcut (now available on your account drop-down menu) is an easy way to see what you have shared recently with your network. The built-in translator will come in handy when connecting with professionals across the word, and video captions help you communicate with viewers even when they're watching your video silently, which people commonly do today.
Not to be outdone, Twitter has been rolling out new features too. The platform announced it will begin showing related topics in its Trending Topics listing, which could help you tap into trending news. The related topics can give you a more complete view of the trending discussion, so you can see if a tie-in to your brand is appropriate and what additional hashtags to use.
Twitter also removed millions of accounts from follower numbers, cracking down on suspicious and spam accounts. Remember that active, targeted followers are more important than quantity, and don't ever buy followers. This update will help make follower counts more accurate and add more legitimacy to influencer marketing on Twitter.
You should be confident that the follower numbers presented across Twitter are meaningful and accurate. We're introducing a change to follower counts as part of our work to make Twitter a more trusted service for public conversation. https://t.co/A2ZEGHjOZ8
— Vijaya Gadde (@vijaya) July 11, 2018
Finally, Twitter is making an effort to improve users' experience by adding the ability to dock videos, so you can keep watching while you scroll. This may lengthen the amount of time viewers watch your videos or even boost views overall.
Meanwhile, Facebook has made changes while trying to climb back into users' good graces. The beleaguered social platform removed its Trending section to make room for future news experiences, such as exclusive video news content on Facebook Watch.
The social giant also introduced Keyword Snooze to help users further control their News Feed. This feature allows users to temporarily hide posts with a specific keyword or phrase from people, Pages and Groups for 30 days. It joins Facebook's other News Feed controls: See First, Hide, Unfollow and Snooze.
Speaking of Groups, Facebook introduced Subscription Groups, so admins can charge for the content they provide group members. This could be a new distribution option for your brand's premium content, such as in-depth tutorials, live streams of event sessions and video coaching sessions.
As we were compiling this roundup of new features, some platforms dropped even more new features.

The Best Social Media Sites For Business Marketing
Social media is one of the best marketing tools for businesses. In fact, it's not just great for businesses; it's great for individuals looking to market a blog too.
I could go on and on about the advantages and strengths of social media marketing. Instead, I'm going to talk about some of the best social media sites for business marketing.
Is your business on the largest social networking site on the planet?
Facebook has been around for 11 years now and few would have predicted its success. When it started out, there were a few users who accessed the platform to stay in touch with family and friends. Facebook is currently the most used social networking site of all time and shows no sign of slowing down. Millions of people use Facebook every day for a variety of reasons, and this is why it's perfect for marketing. In addition to the vast amount of potential customers, the social giant offers resources for businesses to help with your marketing efforts. You can pay to have your Facebook page advertised on people's News Feeds who fall into your target audience(s). There's also a local element; you can advertise directly to potential customers in your area and promote your location via check-ins, a map and your profile. It's a tremendous site for businesses to use and continues to add new features and resources on a regular basis.
Has your business joined the conversation on Twitter?
When I think of Twitter, two words pop into my head: real-time and community. Twitter is the social networking site that people go to for instant updates. With its 140-character limit (for now), the micro-blogging platform encourages a higher volume of posting than other social platforms. Many people now go on Twitter to find out about news stories and learn what's going on in the world. If you're a Twitter veteran, you've probably noticed that online communities are easily formed there by utilizing lists, hashtags and tagging other users. In a business sense, it's ideal for marketing. You can zone in on Twitter audiences that are most relevant to your business. Twitter also presents you the opportunity to engage with a lot of people. Some of the best social media marketing strategies include using Twitter to engage with users. Using hashtags gives you the chance to promote your business to people all over the world.
Is your business utilizing the power of video?
Many people forget about YouTube when the discussion turns to social media. It is considered a social networking site because you can create a profile and interact with others. YouTube was purchased by Google in 2006, only a year after its arrival, and is now a serious player in the entertainment business, with billions of people watching videos every day. This is fantastic news from a business marketing perspective. It gives you a chance to upload videos promoting your business, which can be viewed by potential customers around town or around the world. There's also a chance that your video could go viral, resulting in a significant increase in traffic, attention and customers to your business. If a picture's worth a thousand words, than a video is worth even more.
While social media is a conversation, what you want to achieve from this game-changing addition to your marketing mix is all about you.
While these three social platforms can be great options for businesses, remember that your business has unique objectives and needs. That's why it's crucial to put together a strategy before getting social. If you'd like help putting together your targeted strategy (or just have some questions on the subject), let us know. We love to help brands get social with their targeted audience(s)!

Peanutized: How to Encourage Fans to Engage With Your Brand
Have you been Peanutized?
I took the plunge this afternoon. After seeing the fun creations in my Facebook News Feed the past few days, I couldn't resist anymore. (Ah, the power of social media…)
Get Peanutized is a cool microsite that 20th Century Fox is using to promote the upcoming release of The Peanuts Movie on November 6th. You can turn yourself into a character in the movie by selecting everything from your hair style and color to the shoes on your feet. So 20th Century Fox provided the site and is now sitting back and watching people promote their new movie for them. Genius!
People will share their creations and promote the movie, because it's fun and engaging. At our core, we want to socialize with others, even brands. How can you encourage fans to engage with your brand?
Give out swag: For CCC's 3rd anniversary, we threw a week-long party and invited our fans to join in the celebration. By engaging with us (and therefore spreading our message) on social, fans were entered to win cool swag with a special retro look. It was a success! In addition to increased engagement on our networks, we developed some new advocates for our brand.
What to do #themorningafter the #endofanera and a weeklong 3-year anniversary celebration? Get back to work. 📝 💬 📣 Oh, and announce the Instagram winner of the #CCCTurns3 contest. Congrats @davidbrose, you've won a Spotify Premium gift card! 🎧 🎵 Learn more about the contest, CCC and other winners at the link in my bio or bit.ly/CCCturns3winners. 🏆 p.s.

Hold a contest: Ask people to post photos of your products in action to be entered to win a prize. Remind them to tag you and/or use a special hashtag, so you see the photos and others can too. This is also a great way to share tips or helpful hints about your products. No physical products? No worries! Utilize the aforementioned fun swag and ask fans to post photos of themselves (or others) showing off your promotional products wherever they are — on vacation, at work, etc.
Join the conversation: Don't just respond to messages and comments directed to you; reach out to people when appropriate. Search relevant keywords and hashtags to find conversations you can join and people you can help. The key is to provide helpful information, not to sell. Nobody wants you to bust into their conversation with a sales pitch. But if you have helpful DIY tips, writing advice or relevant experience to share, they may end up becoming a customer down the road.
Open all lines of communication: Communicate with your customers where they're comfortable, whether that's Facebook Messenger or over the phone. Let people know the myriad of ways they can contact you, and you're much more likely to hear from them. According to Andrew Bosworth, Facebook's Ad Chief, "messaging via Pages has doubled year-over-year-over-year, and some companies have told Facebook that it is now the primary place for them to receive customer service requests."
However you choose to engage with your fans, put some effort into it. Don't create an app that doesn't offer any value. Don't set up presences on every social network and then forget about them. If you don't have the bandwidth to be everywhere, choose what fits your company the best and will benefit your customers the most. Consider bringing in outside help to manage what you can't.
And always keep an eye on the future. You never know when you'll be able to share your first virtual reality (VR) ad or beam up fans to your event location. How cool would that be?!

Warning: Appropriate Hashtag Usage on Instagram Will Result in Major Traffic Increase
Hashtags: you either love them or hate them. This blog has pondered hashtag usage before and received a mixed response from readers on their effectiveness and aesthetic appeal. But more than a year after that discussion, one thing is clear. Hashtag usage should be defined more than ever by social platform.

Social Platform Hashtag Usage
Twitter? One to two hashtags raises engagement and can help you reach new audiences. Three or more turn off potential readers because #nobody #wants to #read a #tweet #like #this. Remember, aesthetics matter, especially now that pictures are viewed directly in the tweet and articles can be previewed. CCC Tip: put your hashtags at the end of the tweet if character space allows.
Facebook? Not so much. The largest social network was late to the game recognizing hashtags and its audience doesn't have patience for them. One or two may bring new eyes to your post, but make sure you tuck them in at the end so they're as out of sight as possible. CCC Tip: Pass on hashtag usage on Facebook; they do more damage than good. In fact, when we published the previous hashtag post, Facebook was where we received the most negative feedback on the subject.
Pinterest? Meh. The verdict is sill out on this platform, so you may want to use a couple of applicable hashtags, if appropriate, or bypass altogether. Pins are typically easier to find via category (by search) or by board, so make sure to 'file' them properly. Also, take advantage of board descriptions! Let your prospective audience know why they should follow a particular board so they're more likely to see future pins.
Instagram? Gold mine. Some days it seems like hashtags were created for this popular visual platform instead of Twitter. Sure, you'll see some people complain about the plethora of hashtags used on this site (30 are allowed per photo), but they are SO effective in bringing increased traffic when used appropriately.
Hashtag Guidelines on Instagram
First, only tag your photos with hashtags that make sense; don't tag accounts or hashtags only to fool people into looking at your picture. That makes people mad, so it's not an effective long-term solution. Example: CCC is a marketing company that specializes in writing (including social media), but we don't tag a picture of a sunset with #marketing, #writing or #socialmedia (unless it's applicable for some reason).
Research hashtags to check their popularity and what type of photos show up in the search. More popular hashtags (#socialmedia, #writing) mean more people are searching, but more results in the search mean more competition. Less popular hashtags (such as ones you create) have less competition, but you'll need to promote the tag to draw eyes to it. During your research, get a feel for what type of photos show up in the search. You may be surprised by the double meaning of some hashtags or an unexpected use by another campaign.
You can use up to thirty hashtags per photo, but don't feel obligated. In our experience, most photos don't warrant that many hashtags.
Creating your own hashtag? Try to keep it reasonable in length and avoid special characters (?!#$%), because they don't work. Numbers do though. Make your hashtag easy to remember and promote, promote, promote!

Hashtags & Instagram: An Experiment that Produced Results
I was reviewing our Instagram account on Sunday evening (OK, more like Monday morning) and decided to try adding hashtags to older photos that didn't have any or only had one or two. I thought it would be worth the time to draw more traffic and possibly bring new eyes to CCC's posts. Wow! I couldn't believe the results.
In only 48 hours, we picked up nearly 100 likes, 10 comments and 6 new followers.
These numbers are for an account with 185 followers, under 300 photos and little to no engagement at some points in the past, so we're thrilled!
Conclusion: Appropriate hashtag usage on Instagram will result in major traffic increase, so please use responsibly.

Get Social: 4 Easy Ways to Join the Conversation
At CCC, we're always telling people to join the conversation. Social media is, after all, about being social. Then one day, a client asked us how, and a light bulb went off. Hey, there's a blog post in there somewhere!
@pet_kon Thanks for the RT, Konstantin! I see that you enjoy traveling. Where's your favorite destination?
Jaime Shine (@jaimeshine) December 15, 2013
When you thank people for sharing your content or answer a question that someone's posed, why not make it personal? Refer to people by their name (spelled correctly). Look at the user's profile or recent tweets and mention something that catches your interest. It's a great way to create dialogue and make someone remember you. As you develop relationships, it's easier to ask about or note something of interest to people you're routinely conversing with. Until then, make the extra effort; people will appreciate you.
Do A Little Soul (& Keyword) Searching
Search for popular hashtags and search terms in your industry, so you can check out what people are talking about. (If there are terms you'd like to search consistently, save a search in your social media software or set up a Google Alert.) Join appropriate conversations (not with sales pitches!), and share relevant discussions with your fans and followers to hear their thoughts. This is a great way to stay on top of trends in your industry, gain targeted followers/fans and discover new business opportunities.
You can search for hashtags and keywords on Facebook too.
Hashtag to Happiness (Within Reason)
Searching hashtags is also how you will know which ones to use in your posts to gain the most traction. You can see what type of posts use a particular hashtag if you're trying to decide between #video, #videooftheday or #videoads, and choose accordingly. It varies with each platform, but generally you don't want to use more than 2-3 hashtags on a single post. "Overhashtagging" (my word) makes your content difficult to read and turns people off. Remember, space is at a commodity, whether there's a specific character limit or not. Most people will not take the time to read lengthy social media updates.
Related reading: #Hashtags: Big Business or Bust?
Talk to people. Answer questions, ask your own. Engage with other users' content, and encourage others' to do the same with yours. Don't just lurk or broadcast information. Social media is a two-way street, not a one-way marketing vehicle. The more you engage, the better you'll do. Share others' content. Leave thoughtful comments. Converse. Be social, and others will be social with you. It's amazing how branching out to other Facebook Pages, Twitter profiles, LinkedIn pages and profiles, blogs, etc. will encourage reciprocation and help you grow your network.
So there you have it…. How do you join the conversation?

Bennet, Moran Introduce Legislation to Support Small Meatpacking Plants Operating Overtime to Keep Americans Fed
Washington, D.C. – Today, Colorado U.S. Senator Michael Bennet and U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) introduced the Small Packer Overtime and Holiday Fee Relief for COVID-19 Act to support small meatpacking plants that are operating longer hours during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic to keep our supply chain moving. U.S. Representatives Angie Craig (D-Minn.) and Dusty Johnson (R-S.D.) introduced companion legislation in the House of Representatives.
"The COVID-19 crisis has hit the food supply chain – from producers to our essential workforce – particularly hard," said Bennet. "In addition to prioritizing the health of workers, we should look to reduce barriers for small meatpackers who are stepping up and running overtime to keep the supply chain moving. This bill would do just that by reducing fees for small meatpacking plants, expanding options for ranchers to harvest their livestock while maintaining strong safety standards."
"Meatpackers in Kansas and across the country are doing everything they can to stay open and work longer hours to keep our meat supply in stock during the COVID-19 pandemic," said Moran. "Unfortunately, the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service charges meatpacking plants a fee for overtime hours for food inspectors, and this legislation would reduce these fees that discourage smaller packing plants from extending operating hours. During this pandemic, it is vital we remove cost-prohibitive barriers so our packers can keep working, ranchers can harvest their livestock and Americans can have access to quality food."
"Our small meat processers have stepped up during COVID-19 to keep our local food systems alive and food on our tables," said Craig. "As a Member of the House Agriculture Committee, I've heard from family farmers who aren't sure how they are going to make it past this global pandemic. Local meat processors have addressed the increased demand for processing amidst this pandemic. I'm proud work with Rep. Johnson to lessen the federal burdens as they are rising to meet the current demands of our communities."
"We need all hands on deck to work through this processing bottleneck," said Johnson. "Small processors need flexibility and that's what this bill would provide. The cattle industry is struggling, and during this pandemic, it's crucial we keep overtime costs low for our small processors and producers who rely on this capacity."
According to data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), cattle slaughter in May has decreased by approximately 31 percent compared to last year. This decrease is largely due to meatpacking plants temporarily closing due to outbreaks of COVID-19 or plants slowing operations to take safety precautions to stop the spread of the virus.
The USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) charges meatpacking plants a fee for overtime and holiday hours paid to food inspectors. This legislation would provide funding to FSIS to reduce fees charged to small meatpacking plants when they request overtime and holiday inspection services.
Meatpacking plants with fewer than 10 employees would be required to pay 25 percent of overtime and holiday fees and FSIS would pay the remaining 75 percent. Plants with 10-500 employees would be required to pay 70 percent of overtime fees with FSIS paying the remaining 30 percent.
In addition to Bennet and Moran, this legislation was cosponsored by U.S. Senators Tina Smith (D-Minn.) and Bob Casey (D-Pa.).

For a young man, his nightmare began when his mother was arrested when he was 5. He too ended up in the system. He disliked it at first but he, too, found help from it.
They were mentored by people who were determined to see them succeed.
"I ask the individuals, 'What do you want to do with your life because it is yours now,'" said Kirk Brown, senior vice president of the organization known as HANDY – Helping Abused, Neglected and Disadvantaged Youth — a nonprofit organization.
And, for Dorothy Brown, a grandmother raising a grandchild, help came from another youth-oriented organization, Kids in Distress. It was "the best thing to ever happen to me," she said.
These stories of children in peril and relatives and foster care programs caring for them were told during a one-day stop on March 30 in Broward and Miami-counties by the Congressional Caucus on Foster Youth looking into possible improvements to federal policy to help children in need.
Florida U.S. Reps. Alcee L. Hastings of Miramar and Frederica Wilson of Miami hosted the sessions that included the caucus co-chairwoman U.S. Reps. Karen Bass of California.
In Broward, the national lawmakers visited Childnet in Plantation and in Miami-Dade they stopped at His House Children's Home in Miami Gardens for a forum.
Some people who, as children, benefited from the foster care system talked about their experiences, along with family members. They wanted to tell their success stories while in the system.
Bass said the purpose of the caucus is to determine what improvements can be made at the federal level to make the welfare system better. "Your voice is important," she said.
Hastings described the initiative as "a collaboration and multi-diplomacy approach in being an advocate." He said he was board member of many of the programs represented at the meeting and had been with them when they started.
The state's child welfare system was redesigned in 2001 to reflect a community-based care model. It now combines the outsourcing of foster care and related services to private agencies to promote a sense of increased local community involvement in service delivery and design. Under the initiative, the Florida Department of Children and Families negotiates and contracts with local non-profit agencies to provide services to children who have been abused, neglected and/or abandoned in their community.
All 67 counties participate and operate under this model which is designed to increase accountability, resource development and system performance.
Currently, there are more than 424,000 youth in the nation's foster care system and about 29,500 children age out or otherwise leave the system each year without ever finding a permanent family.
Youth who transition out of the system without the security of a long-term living situation are often at a higher risk for unemployment, poor educational outcomes, health issues, early parenthood, long-term dependency on public assistance, increased rates of incarceration and homelessness.

Grão-Duque Jorge Mikhailovich da Rússia (13 de março de 1981) é o único filho e herdeiro de Maria Vladimirovna da Rússia, uma das pretendentes ao trono russo desde 1992, e do príncipe Francisco Guilherme da Prússia.

Educação e carreira
Em Bruxelas, ele trabalhou no Parlamento Europeu, onde foi assistente de Loyola de Palacio, ex-Comissária Europeu para os Transportes e Energia.

Em 12 de dezembro de 2008, ele foi nomeado um assessor do Diretor-Geral da MMC Norilsk Nickel, uma grande empresa de níquel-mineração russo.

Em 2012 ele foi nomeado executivo-chefe do Comércio Exterior de Metal, o principal centro de vendas para Norilsk Nickel na Suíça.

Em 2014 começou a sua própria empresa, Romanoff & Partners, em Bruxelas.

Herdeiro de sua mãe
Em 21 de abril de 1992, após a morte de seu avô materno Grão-Duque Vladimir Kirillovich, Maria Vladimirovna alegou ter sucedido como Chefe da Casa de Romanov, tornando ele herdeiro de sua mãe. Ele visitou a Rússia pela primeira vez pouco tempo depois para assistir ao funeral de seu avô. Sua pretensão ao trono é contestada, por razões detalhadas no artigo sobre a linha de sucessão ao trono russo.

Casamento
Casou-se em  com e a italiana Rebecca Bettarini, de 39 anos, tendo a cerimónia sido realizada na Catedral de Santo Isaac, em São Petersburgo. Antes de oficializar o noivado, a noiva se converteu à confissão ortodoxa em 12 de julho de 2020 na Catedral de São Pedro e São Paulo, batizando-se com o nome de Victoria Románova Bettarini, adotando assim o sobrenome da família imperial.

Foram convidadas 1.500 pessoas, entre elas a rainha Sofia da Espanha, o rei deposto da Bulgária Simeón II e a  sua esposa Margarita, assim como outros representantes de famílias reais europeias.

Q: unity2d: Character moves in different speeds on different phones...(Deltatime?) so I have this little programm where my player bounces back and forth. His moving left looks like this:
if  ((runright == false) && (birdyDead == false))
{
    float currentposition = 0;
    currentposition = transform.position.x;

    Vector3 position = this.transform.position;
    position.x = currentposition - movespeed;
    this.transform.position = position;
    lookleft = true;
}

I have noticed however, that depending on the phone that I am debugging my game on, the player moves with different speeds. In some extreme cases he is just WAY TOO QUICK. like uncontrollable quick...
I read that maybe I need to somehow multiply some value with time.deltatime which does something to the framerate so that no matter what phone i am using my player is always on the same speed.
Im guessing I need to do this to my jump function too, right?:
if (((Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)) && (didjump == false) && (birdyDead == false)))
{
    GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>().AddForce(new Vector2(0, jumpPower), ForceMode2D.Impulse);
    didjump = true;
    anim.SetBool("Jump", true);
}

Can you help me and show me what do to so that my player still moves the speed that I want it to, but delta time is in the game as well? Thanks :)

A: You just need to multiply movespeed * Time.deltaTime, in order to update the position using a velocity of distance per seconds instead of distance per frame.

The Citadel On Stage is a lively and entertaining social history of British military officers stationed in colonial Halifax. The object of this volume is to survey a wide range of social, theatrical, and recreational performances up until confederation; and to examine the reasons why the garrison officers were entirely involved in these activities.
The main focus is on the garrison theatrical society as a social, cultural, and charitable entity, and how its existence revolved around the British institutions of colonial government and religion, as well as economics. The author illustrates a relationship between the theatricality of political performance and acting on stage, and shows how closely acting and politics are bound up with one another. While attesting that the Anglican Church supported garrison theatre, he gives a critical review of the incessant opposition by the non-conformist puritan element in the community. He also points out that the progress of theatre, sports, and recreation in colonial Halifax parallels the rise or decline of the economy.
In his own style, A.D. Boutilier paints a vivid picture of the comedy and farce inherent in upper class society and in the British institutions moored at Halifax from 1749 to 1867.

From CITADEL posters: the broad influence of Garrison Officers on settlement, sports and horses (racing/breeding) plus boat racing & regattas, and Theatre within the towns and cities of the Maritime Colonial period.
• Settlement of Halifax and the role of the British governors, navy and army ... and waves of settlers that followed populating the Maritimes.
• Influence of immigrants to NS (current Maritimes) from the Loyalists to the Irish, the Foreign Protestants (e.g. , Germans, Montebeliards), Scots, others.
•The influence of various wars: the French & Indian wars (Seven Years War), American Revolution, capture of Louisburg, & Quebec, War of 1812 ... Fenians and more.
•The Expulsion of the Acadiens (George's Island) and the marginalization of the native peoples and those of colour began and continued for centuries.
• The economic life of the city and region seemed much like a roller-coaster: up during war, down in between; and that continued well into the 20th Century and the two world wars.
• The role of established religion and upper class society in the on again, off again, development of theatre in Halifax.
• The garrison theatre spread from Halifax to Annapolis Royal, to Windsor, Cape Breton, Saint John, Fredericton, St. John's, Newfoundland and even Quebec City after it fell in 1758. Halifax Garrison regiments also performed in New York, Boston & Philadelphia between 1775-1783.
• Garrison races held by officers on the Commons eventually led to thoroughbred and standardbred racing and improved breeding within the Maritimes.
• Racing, horse-breeding eventually spread from Halifax to Sackville-Windsor Junction, Windsor, Truro, Charlottetown, Sydney and more. Blood lines were improved with English and Arabian horses.
• Formed the basis for the North Commons (race track), South (Public Gardens) and Central Commons (Egg Pond) for recreation; the Garrison Grounds, the former stables for Bengal Lancers and current Halifax Police mounted division.
• Sports and recreation of those early years also continued into modern times and established the tradition of sailing and regattas in the region today.

La redundància lingüística és una repetició inútil de paraules en qualsevol comunicat o missatge que, de vegades, pot donar èmfasi a l'expressió, però normalment pot ser considerada com un pleonasme viciós.

Per tant, el llenguatge, que és un canal de comunicació, per tal que arribe de manera més eficient un missatge es repeteixen informacions que són inútils.

En el camp de la documentació, la redundància fa referència a una duplicació voluntària, per raons de seguretat, de les informacions d'un fitxer o d'una base de dades.

En l'àmbit de la lingüística la redundància és un excés de caracterització a qualsevol nivell de la llengua: la frase la meua germana és xicoteta té quatre vegades el signe de femení.
