A couple of months ago, the experienced Parisian interior designer, Stéphanie Coutas (best known for her neoclassical and contemporary style) joined forces with the renowned bathroom manufacturer, THG Paris to create a refined bathroom collection. In an astonishing bathroom concept, Montaigne is comprised of a series of bathroom fittings and accessories. Marble was Coutas' weapon of choice and the final result is simply outstanding!
This unique collection was inspired by the of transformation. Coutas and THG Paris are experts in using raw materials such as brass and marble to truly create the best bathroom set possible. Taking into consideration the traditions of French Luxury, Coutas was able to create these materials into contemporary objects of decor and design.
Beauty and functionality merge majestically in this collection that sheds a light on French marble that has been long perfect by French artisans and craftsmen. The Montaigne collection sheds light on French marble enhanced by French artisans: Grand Antique marble, Leonardo Grey marble and White Venus marble.
"My signature is probably the profusion of details, steles to enhance beautiful objects and alcoves to stage props like in a luxury spa; but mostly, the presence of exceptional marble slabs," enlightened Coutas when asked by THG Paris what is her signature for an elegant bathroom.
Above, you can find one of the bathroom sets designed by Coutas that is a true epitome of the French art of living and Parisian elegance. The designer actually placed many of her own designs, including the massive Paris chandelier (which she designed for Baccarat), the Elipse wall lights as well as the Taï Ping rug, providing a few touches of boudoir intimacy. Lastly, THG Paris developed the oval-shaped Mineral Stone bathtub which quickly makes quite the statement in this bathroom set due to its Grand Antique marble base.

Described as "perhaps the most important American play of the century so far" (The Telegraph), Matthew Lopez's major two-part drama, The Inheritance, transfers to the West End following its sold-out run at the Young Vic.
This "crystalline production, pierces your emotional defences" (The Guardian), exploring profound themes through the turbulent and often hilarious experiences of a group of young, ambitious, gay New Yorkers.
Directed by the multi-Olivier Award-winning Stephen Daldry, The Inheritance runs at the Noel Coward Theatre until 19th January 2019 and features a cameo from thespian Vanessa Redgrave in Part 2.
The Inheritance plays across two parts, which can be seen either in one day or over two evenings. This "masterly production" (LondonTheate.co.uk) is poetic, naughty and unmissable.
The majority of the original large ensemble Young Vic cast will transfer with the production, including: Hugo Bolton, Robert Boulter, Andrew Burnap, Hubert Burton, John Benjamin Hickey, Paul Hilton, Samuel H. Levine, Syrus Lowe, Michael Marcus, Vanessa Redgrave, Kyle Soller and Michael Walters.
What is it like to be a young gay man in New York a generation after the peak of the AIDs epidemic? What does it mean to stand on the shoulders of those who have come before you? What is owed to the future and the people around you? How many words are there for pain and for love?
Spanning generations and countless interlinking lives, The Inheritance brilliantly transposes E.M. Forster's novel 'Howards End' to 21st century New York in an achingly tender critically-acclaimed two-part drama.
LOOKING FOR CHEAP THE INHERITANCE: PART 1 TICKETS AT THE NOEL COWARD THEATRE?
With our huge range of cheap tickets for plays on in London, a visit to the West End has never been better value. Book with us for The Inheritance: Part 1 and enjoy a great play at a price that won't bring down the curtain on your budget.

Updated the Finnish language file. And did convert the DVD Logo to a more compatible format.
ATI have announced their new graphics chipset (or GPU as some people now refer to it). It contains all the goodies you'd expect from a new chipset, including faster memory bandwidth, full-scene anti-aliasing, geometry-transform, and all the other hoopla.
However, from my point of view (being that of a video-geek), it's support for HDTV decoding (hopefully on an input-level) and Adaptive-DeInterlacing may make it one of the best card for decoding DVD and Video Capturing.
For more information, read the review at Sharky Extreme and Anandtech.com.
The Spanish language file for DVD Genie has been updated to v3.43, get it here.
The Hungarian, French and Swedish translations of DVD Genie has been updated for v3.43, get them on the language page.

I've been having problems reaching 800x600 TV-Out mode with my NVIDIA based card using the BT869 chipset. I have found a solution to this issue, and if you are having the same problem, you should check out the tip.
Work is being done on the next version of DVD Genie. Right now I've added support for NVIDIA GeForce and Matrox acceleration using the latest Cinemaster Engine. Also made a few other tweaks for the new Cinemaster Engine.
If nothing else bars it, the new version should be out sometime this weekend.
The 10th Kingdom is a fantasy based miniseries that is being released on DVD on May 9th. If you like high-fantasy adventure movies, this is one of the better releases in recent months.
Also, if you like Fantasy movies/miniseries, check out Merlin, good cast, great visuals and a well laid story.
In a completely unrelated topic, I've gotten into the Diablo 2 beta today. It's pretty interesting, but from a graphics point of view, im disappointed it's only 640x480. Don't get me wrong, the graphics are good, but im somewhat used to higher resolutions nowadays.
The game is also suffering from jump-lag and some other ailments, but all-in-all it looks like a hit.

Ok, I've got the last bit of information regarding the AsusDVD player issue, the next version of DVD Genie should be out within the next 48 hours.
I have written a very long and information packed article about DVD Playback on TV using a Display Adaptor with a TV-Out port. It contains lots of tweaking information, especially for NVIDIA users, so jump in.
I am putting the finishing touches to the next version of DVD Genie. But I still want to include support for running the AsusDVD Player (A WinDVD off-shoot). The thing is, I am unsure of the registry location the Asus DVD uses to store the path to it's EXE file. If anyone installed the AsusDVD player, please send me the registry key it creates.

Announcing the release of DVD Genie v3.40.
New support for language files. This should make the DVD Genie user interface translatable into any language. Also some small fixes, hopefully some none (or at least less) Windows 2000 issues.
To download DVD Genie v3.40, click here.
P.S. Thanks to DVDAlliance.com for the new DVD Genie download mirror.
Some people have been complaining that DVD Genie requires a password to download now. This is some hosting bug on my main download site. Either that, or that perticular host is not very happy with the bandwidth.
With this in mind, if anyone can offer a mirroring site which I could access using FTP, please let me know.
I am almost done with version 3.40 of DVD Genie. This new version will finally include the language pack. This will allow people to translate the user interface.
There's still a bit of work to do before it's ready for the masses, but hopefully by next week it should be ready.
DVD Infomatrix is now an Amazon.co.uk associate, scroll up to the top of the page for a look at the new (and remarkably similar) search engine designed specifically for you Europeans folks.

I am working on a language pack feature for the next version of DVD Genie. I don't have a lot of free time, so I am working on it sporadically. I am expecting this feature to be in the next release, which should be out in a week or two. Once out, I will be accepting language pack translations to be posted on the site. Full credit will be given to the translators.
Announcing the release of DVD Genie v3.33.
This is another patch for PowerDVD v2.55 under Windows 2000/NT4. Hopefully this one will get it right.
To download DVD Genie v3.33, click here.
Any Terry Pratchett fan will instantly recognize this movie.
Terry Pratchett's Disc World series has rarely been translated to an animated media. There were several Disc World games, but hardly any Movies.
Having seen this as a TV animated series several years ago, I must recommend this. If nothing else, it would introduce you to Disc World, and perhaps you'll even pick up one of the books for a good laugh.
Announcing the release of DVD Genie v3.32.
This release should hopefully enable PowerDVD v2.55 region support to function better under Windows 2000. I still have no idea what causes DVD Genie to GPF under Windows 2000, it works perfectly on one of my computers locally. I will be installing Windows 2000 on my main computer any day now, perhaps this will shed a light on what is causing these issues.
Beside the PowerDVD support, there are a few more new items, so read the history list.
To download DVD Genie v3.32, click here.
It seems I made a bo-bo, the way Windows NT4 and Windows 2000 handle some registry commands are different than Windows 95/98. So the PowerDVD 2.55 fix is still not working on Windows 2000.
I am working on a fix as we speak, and it should be up within the next 24 hours.
As some of you may know, I recently received my Leadtek GeForce DDR card. The thing is, the card's TV-Out didn't seem to display the TV image on my entire TV screen. It simply didn't cover it entirely, giving me a 1 inch border around the image.
Thanks to Oddjob on IRC for pointing me to TVTool, a program that allows you to scale the image to fit the entire screen and also has several quality and compatibility modes which are quite useful.
After nearly a year, I Brought the Installing Software Cinemaster the Right way article up-to-date.
I have also adjusted the DVD Playback guide to account for the latest changes in the DVD world.
I will be releasing DVD Genie v3.32 this weekend, as you can see, the on-line documentation has already been update for this version. I am still waiting on the actual release to see if I can track down the Windows 2000 issues. I still don't have my retail copy of Windows 2000 server which I require for testing both this site and DVD Genie. So it may take two three weeks before I am able to delve more into these issues.
While most people may find the Tarzan C|Net article a pain in the neck. Personally, I find what Disney done quite funny (it's my cruel side). Not only is Disney seriously overcharging their DVDs (up to $50 list price!), they are putting 4 minute Ads on their movies which can't be bypassed (using the special track usually reserved for copyright messages).
I guess if you pay the mouse, you got to eat some cheese.
As some of you may have noticed, I've modifying the site here and there, for example, i revamped the FAQ section. I have also added a few of the submitted tips, and other small trinkets around the site.
I am also contemplating what to do next for DVD Genie. I think the first thing I should do is get my copy of Windows 2000 so I can test the NT compatibility more. I am still waiting for my disc to arrive, hopefully it won't take too long.
I have also received my Leadtek GeForce DDR today. It's quite nice, 3D quality wise, I got my brother's QUAKE-3 running at 1280x1024 completely smoothly (733mhz CPU ...). However, the TV Out on this thing pales compared with the Hollywood-Plus decoder quality. I truly suggest a decoder card if you are going to be playing DVDs on a TV... (software decoders look better on the monitor though).
Sadly, my own Hollywood-Plus card has decided to go bonkers on me, and since I still have 40 days on my warranty, I sent it back to be replaced. I also fiendishly marked it using an alcohol based pen, drawing dots in hidden places so I would know if they return the same card back to me (Hey, I may be paranoid, but I've been screwed before).


Pregnant women are literally "eating for two," and research shows that their diets impact the food preferences of their unborn children.
A study conducted on rats found a positive correlation between a pregnant female's junk food consumption, and a preference for junk food in her juvenile and adult offspring. The researchers concluded that, "maternal junk food consumption during pregnancy and lactation has functional consequences on the reward pathway of the offspring immediately postweaning," meaning that because these offspring were exposed to junk food via the placenta or breast milk, they needed to eat more junk food to attain the same level of pleasure as adults. A similar experiment, using humans this time, concluded that when pregnant women drank carrot juice, the "prenatal exposure" led to infants enjoying the flavor of carrots during weaning.
But a woman's diet affects more than her baby's taste buds; it can also dramatically impact her newborn's health. The consumption of certain foods can increase the likeliness of premature delivery, miscarriage, or birth defects. Early in their pregnancy, women need to be especially vigilant when evaluating what to eat and drink. A well-balanced diet of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean meats, and lots of water is safest. Here are some thing you should definitely avoid, or (in some cases) approach with the utmost caution. Some are obvious, but others might surprise you.
Don't eat or drink these eight things if you're pregnant.

Giant Russian Passport Carried in Eastern Ukraine on Russia Day - The Moscow Times
The EU leaders plan to make a decision during the summit on June 20-21, which states the non-recognition of the passports issued to the Ukrainian citizens by Russia. They will also urge Moscow to release the Ukrainian sailors as Brussels correspondent of Radio Liberty Rikard Jozwiak reported on Twitter.
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday he was considering sanctions over Russia's Nord Stream 2 natural gas pipeline project — which the United States has told European companies to avoid — and warned Germany against being dependent on Russia for the fuel.
The acting head of the Security Service of Ukraine, Ivan Bakanov, has announced that his wife has Russian citizenship and that she is in line to get Ukrainian citizenship. The statement has been published on the SBU's Facebook page on June 12.

Art Porter Jr
Art Porter
Arthur Lee Porter Jr. (August 3, 1961 – November 23, 1996) was an American jazz saxophonist. He was the son of jazz musician Art Porter Sr. and the namesake of "The Art Porter Bill".
Art Porter Jr. was born in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1961. Porter joined his father's band (The Art Porter Trio) as a drummer at the age of 9 and played with them into his teen years. Porter was then drawn to the saxophone, after noticing its melodic abilities, and began to play it during shows with his father's group. Porter is a 1979 graduate of Parkview Arts and Science Magnet High School in Little Rock, where he played in the marching and jazz bands. When Porter turned 16, he began to be barred from clubs because he was under 21. It was during this time that he was arrested and charged with working under-age in a nightclub serving alcoholic beverages. Then Arkansas Attorney General, and future President of the United States Bill Clinton, who was also a saxophonist, intervened to get the charges dropped and pushed for the law to be changed to allow under-age musicians to appear in adult facilities as long as their legal guardians accompanied them. This law became known as "The Art Porter Bill". Porter attended Berklee College of Music and Northeastern Illinois University where he studied music, earning a bachelor's degree in Arts in the latter. He later attended Roosevelt University, where he would earn his master's degree. Porter studied piano under Ellis Marsalis, a former saxophonist himself.
In the mid-1980s, Porter moved to Chicago, Illinois, and studied tenor saxophone with Von Freeman and performed with Pharoah Sanders and Jack McDuff. During the 1990s, he developed an interest in R&B and hip hop and merged elements of these into his performances. Soon after this, Porter signed with Verve Forecast Records and PolyGram and produced several albums, beginning in the summer of 1992 with Pocket City, followed by Straight to the Point, Undercover, and finally Lay Your Hands on Me. Porter and his father performed for President Clinton during his 1993 inauguration, playing Amazing Grace at a prayer breakfast.

HomeEntertainmentManga in Perspective: Dungeon Meshi
Manga in Perspective: Dungeon Meshi
Entertainment, Manga
One of the nicer things I've come to find out about in the past couple of weeks was something called the Crunchyroll Anime Awards. While fan votes tend to be very much a bit of a mess – looking at last year, it's clear that the anime with the most rabid fanbase won – the addition of a manga category spices things up a bit.
Manga in general tends to be a bit different from its animated counterpart. Its fan base is much smaller to start with, and on top of that the types of people who read it are slightly different than the people who enjoy anime. As such, I wanted to give an overview of Crunchyroll's picks for the year, in part because I think this line up is simply fantastic. It seems as though like movies, anime and music, 2017 was a fantastic year for manga as well.
Starting this series off is the manga, recently licensed by Yen Press, called Dungeon Meshi, in English titled "Delicious in Dungeon". A take on the recent boom of fantasy series – both the "reincarnation" trope and just regular RPG type fantasy series – it combines that standard premise with a twist: the group, broke because of circumstances outside of their control, begins to cook up the various monsters they find in the dungeon in order to save on cash. The story becomes an episodic look into the various creations they manage to cook up, and through those creations an introduction to the larger world they live in. After all, world-building is essential for any good fantasy series.
This particular series is almost entirely crafted towards the modern trends of the day. Its chapter pacing is very much in the style of the modern online light novel/manga series; if the overarching plot doesn't feel that urgent, that is entirely due to current trends, with slow-burning short chapters that eventually build into a larger plot. The artwork is fantastic with clean strokes that suits such a series, and the panelization phenomenal, with the pacing of every chapter set so that the action feels neither too slow nor too fast. In fact everything about this work was so trend-based that it took me a bit by surprise to realize that the work was entirely manga original, although it should be no surprise to anyone that it ranked first in 2016's Kono Manga ga Sugoi!.
While it may not be groundbreaking, it certainly gets much credit for its excellent mix of trendiness with stellar comedy and pacing. For people who love the fantasy RPG genre (or are fans of cooking), definitely check this series out.

I would like to say a sincere thank you to the trustees of the JHMT for dedicating this year's Harvest Appeal to the ministry of Wycliffe Bible Translators, and specifically my upcoming service with them in Tanzania. Thank you too to the members of BH for giving so generously to the Appeal, which raised over £9000 for my supporter fund. I'm deeply grateful for your investment in God's work of Bible translation and for the trust you've shown in me as I journey down this path.
It was lovely to be able to visit BH on Sunday 22 October, to catch up with friends old and new and to share a little about the work of Wycliffe and my involvement in it. Thanks to all those who came to my afternoon presentation (not least the incredible team of bakers who served up a lavish spread of cakes, scones and slices for the occasion) and for the many great chats throughout the day. BH has a strong place in my heart and your encouragement and support means a great deal to me.
Thank you for your prayers! As I enter the final few weeks of my linguistics study at Redcliffe College (Gloucester), please pray that God will continue to grow me in both competency and character for the work he has planned for me. Please pray too for my ongoing partnership development and personal preparation, that God will provide all that is needed financially, practically and spiritually for me to begin my assignment in Tanzania in July 2018.

Day 861: Essentially.
1/ Trump tweeted that Russia helped "me to get elected" – his first acknowledgement that Russia worked to get him elected in 2016. Trump later retracted the statement, telling reporters that, "No, Russia did not help me get elected. […] I got me elected." Trump has previously denied that Russia interfered in the election, rejecting the conclusions by American intelligence agencies and federal prosecutors that Russia worked to help him defeat Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election campaign. (New York Times / Washington Post / Associated Press / The Guardian / CNN)
📌 Day 819: The Trump campaign "expected it would benefit" from information released by Russia, but "the investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities." The report continues: "The investigation established that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome." Putin's "preference was for candidate Trump to win."
2/ Trump attacked Robert Mueller, characterizing him as "totally conflicted" and "true never-Trumper," suggesting that if the former special counsel had any evidence, he would have brought charges. Trump insisted that Mueller's comments yesterday "essentially" said "'You're innocent.' There was no crime, there was no charge because he had no information." Trump also referred to a "business dispute" with Mueller, but didn't elaborate. Bill O'Reilly, however, said Trump called him last night to complain that "Mueller didn't like him because he turned him down to be the head of the FBI after he fired Comey" and that Trump once refused to refund his country club membership deposit. "Mueller wanted $15,000 back and Trump said no," O'Reilly said. Mueller denied the incident. Trump went on to baselessly claim that Mueller "loves Comey," and "whether it's love or a deep like, he was conflicted." (ABC News / NBC News / Mediate)
📌 Day 860: Robert Mueller declined to clear Trump of obstruction of justice and suggested that only Congress can "formally accuse a sitting president of wrongdoing" in his first public remarks about his two-year-long investigation of Russia's interference in the 2016 presidential election. The special counsel noted that "charging the president with a crime was […] not an option we could consider," because Justice Department policy prohibits the indictment of a sitting president. Mueller emphasized that if his office "had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so." Mueller concluded his remarks by reiterating his report's conclusion that "There were multiple, systematic efforts to interfere in our election. And that allegation deserves the attention of every American." (Washington Post / New York Times / ABC News / Associated Press / CNN / Wall Street Journal / Bloomberg / NPR)
3/ Attorney General William Barr thinks Mueller should have reached a decision on whether Trump obstructed justice, despite Justice Department guidelines saying a sitting president cannot be indicted. Barr suggested that Mueller "could've reached a decision as to whether there was criminal activity." Mueller, however, said that because "It would be unfair to potentially accuse somebody of a crime when there can be no court resolution of the actual charge," it was "not an option we could consider." (The Hill)
Key U.S. intelligence partners, including the United Kingdom and Australia, are concerned with Barr's politically-charged Justice Department review of how the Russia investigation began. Trump gave Barr the authority to declassify and study the pre-election Obama-era intelligence related to the investigation. Partners are concerned that Barr could potentially reveal intelligence shared with the U.S. and, in the process, damage their other relationships with foreign partners. (CNN)
4/ At least 49 Democrats and one Republican support starting an impeachment inquiry against Trump. Democratic leaders also say Mueller's remarks yesterday reiterate the importance of having him testify before Congress. Mueller has indicated that he is reluctant to testify and that he wouldn't say anything beyond what his office wrote in report, calling his report "my testimony." (New York Times / NBC News)
5/ The Trump administration deliberately concealed evidence about the decision to add a citizenship question to the 2020 Census. The origins of the plan were discovered on hard drives in Thomas Hofeller's home, who died last summer. The files show that Hofeller concluded that adding a citizenship question to the 2020 Census "would clearly be a disadvantage to the Democrats" and "advantageous to Republicans and Non-Hispanic Whites" in redistricting. He pushed the idea to the Trump administration in 2017, which then intentionally obscured Hofeller's role in court proceedings. The government has maintained that adding the question was intended to improve enforcement of the Voting Rights Act. The Supreme Court will decide the case by the term's end next month on whether the citizenship question can be added to the 2020 Census. (New York Times / Washington Post / NBC News / Reuters)
Notables.
The White House wanted the USS John S. McCain "out of sight" during Trump's visit to Japan. A Navy official confirmed that someone in the White House asked to move the destroyer while Trump was in the area. A tarp was also hung over McCain's name, and sailors were given the day off. A spokesperson for the Pentagon said Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan didn't know about the White House's request. (Wall Street Journal / NBC News / The Hill / Washington Post / New York Times)
Trump said whoever directed the Navy to obscure the warship USS John S. McCain was "well-meaning," adding that he didn't know about and "was not involved" in the effort to the hide the Navy destroyer. "I would not have done that." (Washington Post / New York Times / Associated Press)
Several service members aboard the USS Wasp wore "Make Aircrew Great Again" patches. The Navy is reviewing whether the Trump-themed patches violated Navy rules. (CNN)
A federal judge rejected the Trump administration's request to begin construction on a border wall with Mexico while it appeals a ruling that found funding for the wall was not authorized by Congress. U.S. District Court Judge Haywood Gilliam said the government was unlikely to prevail on the merits of its appeal, failing to justify a stay of a preliminary injunction issued last week. (Reuters)
Federal prosecutors subpoenaed Mar-a-Lago for records related to Republican Party donor Li "Cindy" Yang and several of her associates and companies. The former owner of a Florida spa is involved in a prostitution investigation and allegedly sold access to Trump and his associates at Mar-a-Lago events. (Miami Herald / Vanity Fair)
China accused the U.S. of engaging in "economic terrorism" and said the ongoing trade war has "brought huge damage to the economy of other countries and the US itself." Yesterday, Chinese state media issued a similar warning to Washington: "Don't say we didn't warn you." The statements come as China's top economic planning agency said it would be willing to reduce exports of rare earth minerals to the U.S., which are an important part of high-tech manufacturing. (CNN)
The U.S. has slipped into third place when it comes to the most competitive economies. While the U.S. is still on top when it comes to economic performance, the boost in confidence from Trump's tax cuts has faded while higher fuel prices and weaker high-tech exports have reduced competitiveness. (CNBC)
Trump might meet with two pro-Brexit politicians when he visits the U.K. next week. Trump said he considers Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage to be "very good guys" and "very interesting people." (Politico / Bloomberg)
The Department of Energy referred to fossil fuel as "molecules of U.S. freedom" in a press release touting exports of natural gas. (ABC News)


One diver, after a seemingly brief period below the surface, discovers that his gas supply has run perilously low. Another, paralyzed, bobs helplessly on the surface, and when a poorly trained divemaster attempts rescue, things go from bad to worse. Two other divers, fascinated by the bountiful undersea life of the Caribbean, fail to notice that a powerful current is sweeping them rapidly away from their unattended boat.


A team of IT experts from Poole-based IT firm Codeless Platforms, led by former Brock student Jake Baldry, visited the College recently to give a presentation to second year Level 3 IT students.
Jake, who works for Codeless Platforms as an IT consultant, studied the course when he attended Brock back in 2009.
During the presentation the group spoke about what the company does, roles within the firm, and possible ways to join the business.
Codeless Platforms is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM), which provides application development services for local, national and international enterprises.
For example, they are currently building a service app for a refrigeration business to ensure engineers have all the right information at their fingertips.
When asked his advice for students hoping to pursue a career in the IT industry, he said: "Think about what you are naturally interested in and progress with that.
"It can be daunting when you're 17/18 and you don't know what to do… When I was here I had an interest in stuff that was broken, so I just followed that interest," he added.

Beginning a career in law enforcement as a woman may seem like a daunting task. The profession has the reputation of being a male dominated field.

The truth is that women bring skills and abilities that are crucial to the overall law enforcement mission. Good communication skills, problem solving and conflict resolution are the traits most important to an effective Deputy Sheriff.

Let's Give Air Power a Full Chance
By Godfrey Sperling Godfrey Sperling, Jr., is the Monitor's senior Washington columnist.
ONCE there was Walter Lippmann to turn to for words of wisdom on major decisions facing the nation. I see no Lippmanns now - although there is a plethora of generals, admirals and former foreign-affairs officials on TV, their talking heads alternating between Scud assaults, Pentagon briefings, and other war coverage. Most of them I've never seen before. Some are more convincing than others. But I wish Lippmann was around to tell the president what he is doing right or wrong - and what he should do.
And I wish there was a wise person of Lippmann's stature on the sidelines. Perhaps there is. The New York Times's James Reston, who comes out of retirement with an occasional column, is one such man. He's recently written a compelling piece in which he argues that the US should not hurry into a costly air war. Just keep bombing, he urges, and seek to force Saddam to surrender with air power - even if it takes weeks.
Perhaps by the time this column appears the US will have launched a land war. Informants are telling us that this phase is scheduled and imminent. In a war where events race across the scene, a columnist must take risks that his words may be overtaken. Yet I take comfort in knowing that the latest information from Defense Secretary Cheney is that the bombing alone ``may continue into February.''
Perhaps the president has planned all along to hold off on a ground offensive for weeks and prevent a bloody war by relying fully on the Air Force. Part of such a plan would include giving the impression that ground forces could be unleashed at any moment.
There is an opposing view, particularly in the Army and Marines, that the Air Force itself can never ``get the job done'' - that the ground forces must come in and mop up. Writes Reston: ``The Army and Marines don't like Dwight Eisenhower's `courage of patience,' for they want to prove they are as efficient as the Air Force and Navy.''
Reston points out that the UN resolutions did not tell Bush to fight a land war: ``They authorized him to use what force he deemed necessary, and left it to the other members to do likewise.''
Reston asks: Why hurry to the land war before giving the bombers time to cut off the Iraqi ground forces from essential supplies? ``If the Air Force and the Navy can drop bombs down chimneys, they should be able to hit supply trucks down to the last sandwich.''
``Bush's best chance of reducing Saddam's authority in the Arab world,'' Reston writes, ``is not to slaughter Saddam's armies in battle but force them to surrender. It is not in America's interest to create a military wasteland in Iraq and leave Iraq to Iran's and Syria's tender mercies. So at least a prolonged effort to destroy Saddam's communications and starve his armies into submission is necessary before any land struggle begins.'' Why should the US accommodate Saddam, he asks, ``by fighting on the battlefield of his choice under conditions familiar to his troops and unfamiliar to ours?''
``Nor had the administration explained,'' Reston goes on, ``why it refuses to aim its `smart bombs' at Saddam himself while old generals and warrior journalists recommend land battles for young men to fight.''
I feel obligated, however, to disclose my own possible prejudice. I served for five years in the Army Air Forces during World War II and have kept up a commission. I am aware that studies have shown that the damage done by US air in Europe, although extensive, was not as destructive as early estimates indicated. It certainly took the ground forces to move in and wrap up the victory.
In the Asian theater the valiant flyers certainly played a highly significant role in the victory. Yet we remember well the terribly bloody ground battles that were necessary for the Allies to move forward. On the other hand, there are military experts who argue that the atom bomb need not have been dropped - that conventional bombing was already hammering the Japanese into submission.
So why not give air power a full chance? Reston ends by pointing out what starving out the Iraqi troops might accomplish: ``If they have nothing to eat but leaflets, some might prefer to leave Kuwait and go home - before they have no home to go home to.''

What's the Deal with Kanye West's Mysterious New Sweatpants?
The rapper can't stop wearing these Adidas "Calabasas" sweats.
By Jake Woolf
Kanye West has been in a sweatpants mood for a while now. Ever since he discovered the wonders of fleece trousers and all things military surplus (by our estimate: mid-2014), he's been dedicated to oversized dad-like coziness while wearing clothes hypebeasts can't get enough of. He's rocked sweats from his own brand, Yeezy, as well as from Gosha Rubchinskiy, Off-White, and of course Adidas, though his new Adidas sweatpants aren't the ones you'll find at your local sporting-goods store. Rather, his feature a mysterious side detail in the form of a Pagal font "Calabasas" print, as well as a new Adidas Calabasas logo next to the standard Adidas logo. But as of right now, these sweats are nowhere to be found for purchase, despite the fact that some pairs have surfaced on social media.
https://twitter.com/Pause_Online/status/775734783922081794
So what's the deal? Last month, Kim Kardashian teased the Calabasas line on her Snapchat, though at the time she said it was for kids only. But it seems that now some big-boy versions are in existence, and come in colors like black/red, navy/red, burgundy/orange, and, most recently, green/gold. Point is, they look insanely cozy and we want a pair right now. Here's our one caveat: In some up-close shots of the sweats, it's obvious that the Calabasas portion is merely stitched on top of the Adidas stripes, which could mean these are just Adidas sweatpants that have been altered. We reached out to Adidas for more info, but the company declined to comment.
However, given the unique colorways, it could also just mean these are samples that West is road-testing until he's ready to release them to the public. But if you're looking to get the style right now, you could always snag a pair from Modell's, on sale for $25. Bonus points if you rock them tucked into your socks, Yeezy-style.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Watford Preview and Line Up Prediction: Spurs to Win 1-0 at 11/2


Did you install iOS 11 beta onto your iPhone or iPad, but now want to downgrade to iOS 10 and revert to a more stable system software version? You're likely not alone.
Fortunately just like it's easy to install iOS 11 beta right now (even without a developer account), it's also easy to downgrade iOS 11 back down and revert to iOS 10.
In this tutorial we will demonstrate downgrading iOS 11 beta back to the most recent stable iOS 10.3.3 build.
Downgrading iOS 11 beta is pretty easy. You will need the following: a device running iOS 11, a signed version of iOS 10 IPSW, a modern release of iTunes on a Mac or PC, a USB cable, and an internet connection. That's about it.
We will show you the the simplest method to downgrade iOS 11 beta back to iOS 10. Downgrading does not require using recovery mode or DFU mode unless the iPhone or iPad is not able to boot or is bricked by a failed software update.
You should have a recent backup available of your iOS device to avoid potential data loss. Note that iOS 11 backups are not able to be restored to iOS 10, so if your most recent backup is from iOS 11 then you will not be able to restore that to a downgraded iPhone or iPad.
Downgrading iOS 11 back down to iOS 10.x.x may take a while, depending on the size of your iPhone or iPad and how much stuff you have on it.
Note that if the downgrade fails for whatever reason, you can also choose to alt/shift click on the "Restore" button but in doing so the device will be restored and setup as new.
If you have the iOS 11 public beta installed, and you wish to downgrade back to iOS 10, you will need to downgrade to iOS 10.3.3.
Only iOS 10.3.3 is being signed by Apple, thus that is the version you must downgrade to.
Finally if the downgrade process bricks or the iPhone or iPad gets stuck on an Apple logo or something similar, that is when you would want to go a step further and put the device into DFU mode (you can read how to put iPhone 7 into DFU and how to put other iPhone and iPad models into DFU mode too) or recovery mode and then attempt to downgrade and restore the device again – this is pretty rare and should not be necessary for most simple uncomplicated downgrade situations.
Do you have any tips, tricks, advice or comments about downgrading from iOS 11 beta? Let us know in the comments!
Since I've downgraded from 11 to 10, my Find my iPhone function will not work anymore. He will not remember the option if I put it on.
Thank you verry much, i was stuck and searching for any solutions because i just forget my backup password !
My iOS 11 beta is really buggy and I'm on a brand new iPhone 7plus. I'm stressing out and I want to go back to the original publicly available iOS's. If I revert to iOS 10, will it be like I never did iOS 11 beta and will I still get the updates?
So I was on IOS11 and wanted to come back on IOS 10.3.3.
Downloaded IOS 10.3.3 IPS file from the legit website started the process of going in recovery and Updating the phone with the file I downloaded and waited for 30 mins to see that I have lost Notes – SMS/iMESSAGES – my entire music library and I have been signed out of all the apps.
Restore from an iOS 10 backup to get the data before the iOS 11 update to return, that is the best course of action.
I have used a tool named Reiboot to downgrade my iPhone from iOS 11 to iOS 10.3.2, much easier, with only one click, my iPhone back to iOS 10.3.2 soon.
I try to downgrade my iPhone 7, but it stuck at recovery mode, finally the free Reiboot solves my problem.
if don't want a beta jus download a ios 10.1 ipsw file this happens because a beta phone does not support a ios 10.3 version or later later downloading it you can upgrade it to ios 10.3 use itunes for this process 3rd party app can corrupt your i phones rom.
I couldn't restore to iOS 10.3.2. My iPhone would boot into recovery mode after iTunes has completed the restore.
If you are currently running iOS 11 beta: For devices that currently have iOS 11 beta installed, you must restore 10.3.3 beta. Download the iOS 10.3.3 beta software restore image for your device from the download page.
Thanks GOD. this worked for me. thanks for sharing the solution.
After ground grading to iOS 10.3 my iPhone 6S got stuck in recovery mode. Cannot do anything. It loop back to recovery mode. I am helpless.
after doing this process, I cannot open iBooks, nor are my Messages intact. How do I fix this without a Backup?
Open iTunes or iCloud and restore from the iOS 10 backup you made. You need to restore from an iOS 10 backup.
If you don't have an iOS 10 backup you will have to stay on iOS 11 if you don't want to lose any data.

Eleanor Roosevelt, an accomplished American woman
By Michele Orzano
Published: Dec 13, 2014, 5 AM
Collectors can purchase 2014 First Spouse gold $10 coins honoring Eleanor Roosevelt, the longest serving first lady in history, from 1933 to 1945.

The Eleanor Roosevelt Memorial Foundation offered these silver medals in an effort to raise funds for the Eleanor Roosevelt Library Wing Dedication. The medal was produced in 1972 by the Franklin Mint.

This £1 New Zealand note is part of a string of 14 short-snorter notes that were taped together. The New Zealand note features the signature of Eleanor Roosevelt.

Medals, coins and paper money are a part of the legacy of Anna Eleanor Roosevelt.
To many, she may be best known as the wife of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
However, Eleanor Roosevelt is widely recognized on her own merits as one of the most accomplished American women of all time.
Just as many numismatic tributes to Franklin Roosevelt exist, many numismatic tributes recognize her as an individual because of her activism on behalf of the poor, the disadvantaged and those in harm's way.
Long before she met and married the man who would serve four terms as president of the United States; before she traveled the world visiting U.S. military troops; and before she wrote six books and 2,500 syndicated newspaper columns, Anna Eleanor Roosevelt was groomed to be a conventional woman of her era.
Privileged birth
She was born Oct. 11, 1884, in New York City to the wealthy household of Elliott Roosevelt and Anna Hall Roosevelt.
Her father was the younger brother of Theodore Roosevelt and their oldest child was named after her mother, Anna, though she would be known mostly as Eleanor. Theodore Roosevelt considered her his favorite niece.
Biographers say unhappiness began in her childhood in 1892, when her mother died of diphtheria. Her father, an alcoholic whose lifestyle led to commitment to a sanitorium and estrangement from his family, died of a seizure in 1894, two days after a suicide attempt.
At the age of 10 she and a younger brother moved in with their maternal grandmother. Eleanor was privately tutored until the age of 15 when she was sent to a finishing school in London, where she found academic achievement and popularity among her fellow students.
Young adulthood
Two years later, as was the expected convention at the beginning of the 20th century, Eleanor was presented at a debutante ball. She was removed from her finishing school, an act she always regretted.
The following year she encountered one of her many distant cousins, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, on a train. The two, previously only slightly acquainted from their appearances at family gatherings, began a quiet romance.
In 1903 she and Franklin were engaged — she was 19 and he was 22. On her wedding day, March 17, 1905, her uncle "Teddy" walked her down the aisle.
Again, it appeared she was headed for a conventional life as a wife and mother. Between 1906 and 1916 she gave birth to six children, with one dying in infancy. But Eleanor's life would soon be changing.
Political future
In 1910 Franklin was elected to the New York State Senate and in 1913 he was appointed the assistant secretary of the U.S. Navy.
Although a Democrat, Franklin was following in the footsteps of his cousin Theodore, a Republican whose first political office was in the New York State Assembly and who also served as assistant secretary of the Navy.
In August 1921, while the family was vacationing at Campobello Island, New Brunswick, Franklin contracted polio.
That year marks when Eleanor's role gradually changed from conventional housewife and mother to confidant and political strategist.
By 1928, when Franklin was elected governor of New York, she had become the "eyes and ears" of her husband because his paralysis didn't make travel easy.
She traveled across the state and took the pulse of the people, and reported back to him what she'd seen and heard.
It was to become her pattern as he began the first of four terms in 1933 as president of the United States.
In fact, she traveled so much it became a running joke among newspaper cartoonists and pundits that Eleanor could show up just about anytime and anywhere.
Eleanor started a syndicated newspaper column in 1936 called "My Day," and throughout World War II she filled it with her observations as she visited U.S. and allied armed forces and civilians around the world.
In 1943, as she visited military hospitals and bases in Australia, New Zealand and 15 other islands in the South Pacific, her column related the realities of war. But she often described the courage and good humor she saw displayed by American armed forces.
Part of that good humor involved what are called "short snorters."
One of the simplest definitions of a short snorter is "a piece of paper money upon which signatures were exchanged between those traveling together or meeting up at different events.
The tradition was started by bush pilots in Alaska in the 1920s and subsequently spread, through the growth of commercial and military aviation. If you signed someone's short-snorter and that person could not produce it upon request, they owed you a dollar or a drink.
The name for these autographed notes came from the slang for an alcoholic drink, often referred to as a 'short snort,' " according to Tom Sparks, creator of the online gallery called The Short Snorter Project.
While in Australia, she visited the Air Transport Command's base and posed for a photograph with eight ATC officers in front of an ATC airplane. Each individual signed the photo. In 2010, Heritage Auctions sold the photograph, a letter typed and signed by Eleanor, and 14 "short snorter" notes that were taped together.
One of the notes is a £1 New Zealand note that Roosevelt had signed. The lot sold for $717.
Photos of Eleanor visiting the Panama Canal Zone in 1944 and signing such notes can be found at the project's website, www.shortsnorter.org.
She must have enjoyed the camaraderie, because she is known to have carried a "short snorter" with her and added signatures of military personnel she visited.
Other short-snorters featuring her autograph can sometimes be found in public and online auctions.
In 1946, a year after the death of Franklin, President Harry Truman appointed Eleanor to be the U.S. representative to the United Nations.
She served as the first chairperson of the UN Human Rights Commission. She resigned in 1952, but in 1962 President John F. Kennedy reappointed her.
It was to be a short-lived second term, as she was diagnosed with bone marrow cancer that summer and died Nov. 7, 1962. She is buried beside her husband at the Franklin D. Roosevelt National Historic Site in Hyde Park, N.Y.
Following her death, in a United Nations address U.S. delegate Adlai E. Stevenson said of her, "she would rather light a candle than curse the darkness and her glow has warmed the world."
In 1968 the United Nations posthumously awarded its first Human Rights Prize to Eleanor Roosevelt.
Collectible tributes
A range of numismatic items pay tribute to her.
In 1972 the Eleanor Roosevelt Memorial Foundation issued sterling silver medals struck by the Franklin Mint.
The 39-millimeter medals commemorated the dedication of the Eleanor Roosevelt Library Wing added to the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum in Hyde Park.
The obverse image has a portrait of Eleanor Roosevelt and the reverse displays a candle and flame with the words, SHE WOULD RATHER LIGHT/ A CANDLE THAN CURSE/ THE DARKNESS, AND HER/ GLOW HAS WARMED/ THE WORLD/ ADLAI STEVENSON.
In 1976 a 39-millimeter silver medal featuring a portrait of Eleanor was struck and issued by the Franklin Mint as part of its Gallery of Great Americans.
The medallic program issued 12 medals from 1970 to 1976 honoring Americans in 12 different categories ranging from statesmen to social leaders to scientists to humanitarians.
The Franklin Mint also issued bronze ingots in its 100 Greatest Americans series in the 1970s, with one honoring Eleanor.
Also in the 1970s, the Danbury Mint included a portrait medal of Eleanor in its Great Patriots of the United States series of medals struck in silver and bronze.
In 1984, in honor of the 100th anniversary of Eleanor's birth, medallic sculptor Marika Somogyi designed a bronze portrait medal.
The obverse of the 4.5-inch (108 millimeters) medal features a portrait of Eleanor in her 70s. The back of the 16-ounce medal is numbered. In total, 150 were made.
The medals were offered by Numismarketing Associates of Woodland Hills, Calif.
Many medals depicting Eleanor Roosevelt can be found on eBay and in other online auction venues.
Also check with medals dealers to see what they have in their inventories or can find.
First Spouse
In 2014 the U.S. Mint began offering First Spouse gold $10 coins honoring Eleanor, the longest serving first lady in American history, holding that position from 1933 to 1945.
She is one of four women to be honored on First Spouse coins during 2014.
The obverse portrait of Roosevelt was designed by Artistic Infusion Program artist Chris Costello and sculpted by sculptor-engraver Phebe Hemphill.
The reverse was also designed by Costello and sculptured by sculptor-engraver Renata Gordon. The reverse depicts Eleanor lighting a candle. A glowing light rises over a stylized graphic of the Earth's curved horizon.

Alex White, Rasmus Lunau, Marisa Carrasco; Single cues enhance contrast sensitivity, but feature singletons do not. Journal of Vision 2012;12(9):1344. doi: 10.1167/12.9.1344.
Goal: Objects appearing in the visual periphery can automatically capture attention. The brief flash of a single cue, for example, rapidly enhances contrast sensitivity for subsequent stimuli in its vicinity. Feature singletons (e.g., a red shape among green ones) can also capture attention in a variety of tasks. Here, we evaluate whether a peripheral cue that enhances contrast sensitivity when it appears alone has a similar effect when it appears as a color singleton, with the same stimuli and task. Methods: Observers discriminated the orientation of a Gabor patch that appeared at one of two isoeccentric locations on opposite sides of an imaginary 45º diagonal. A red or green cue disc was flashed 106 ms before the Gabor's onset, either near the Gabor's location (valid cue, 50% likely) or near the opposite location (invalid cue). In a random half of trials the cue disc appeared alone, and in the remainder it was presented amongst 15 others of the opposite hue, all arranged in an isoeccentric ring. The discs' colors were equated in subjective luminance. Observers were explicitly informed that all the discs were task-irrelevant. Results: By varying the contrast of the Gabor we obtained psychometric functions of performance. In the single cue condition, contrast thresholds as well as response times were lower on valid than invalid trials, indicating that attention was drawn towards the location of unique contrast change against the background. In the singleton condition, however, performance was not affected, indicating that attention was not drawn towards the disc with chromatic contrast relative to all other discs in the display. Thus, feature singletons and single cues shift attention in different ways.
