Our thought for today is from Psalm 25:6: "Remember, O Lord, Your compassion and love, for they are from everlasting."
Let us pray. Heavenly Father, make us grateful for Your love and compassion You so wonderfully provide for these, Your people, who strive to do the best possible for the people they serve. We pray for those in need, those who suffer in any way. Grant them Your compassion and faithfulness. Bless our Nation, President, State, Governor, Speaker, staff, and those who serve. Bless and protect our defenders of freedom and first responders as they protect us. Heal the wounds, those seen and those hidden, of our brave warriors who suffer and sacrifice for our freedom. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayers. Amen.

D'Artagnan Collier, Socialist Equality Party candidate for Detroit Mayor, spoke at a forum on Thursday, calling for the mobilization of the working class to rebuild Detroit in its own interests, not the interests of the bankers and financiers who are represented by Detroit's emergency manager, Kevyn Orr.
In his "Proposal for Creditors," Orr has declared open class warfare on behalf of the banks against workers. The plan, which includes the virtual destruction of city worker jobs, health care and pensions, was released only two days before the unveiling of a proposal to build a new arena and entertainment district in downtown Detroit on behalf of billionaire Mike Ilitch using more than $280 million of public funds.
Other candidates attending the forum included former Detroit corporation counsel Krystal Crittendon; former state representative Lisa Howze; as well as Willie Lipscomb, Jean Vortkamp, Dr. John Telford, Mark Murphy, Angelo Brown, and Herman Griffin.
In contrast, Collier categorically rejected the emergency manager. "I am for rejecting and throwing out the emergency manager," he declared. "Rather than having a city council of celebrities and career politicians, I am for a council of workers. The only way to genuinely guarantee the full participation of the people is to establish a government of workers, for workers, and by workers." His comments were met with loud and spontaneous applause.
The other candidates advanced law and order demagogy and appeals to the ruling elite. Crittendon demanded that the "billionaires of this city give the money that's owed to us" to fund a greater police presence. Mike Murphy proposed placing surveillance cameras on light poles throughout the city. Lisa Howze claimed she would go "even further" than Murphy by placing a "surveillance emphasis on 'high-crime' [i.e., working class] areas." Vortcamp called for a complete militarization of the city, where police officers are to be assigned by street. "I want police at our schools," she said. "I want police officers to make friends with our students." Griffin went as far as to claim he would plant "hidden" police officers throughout the city.
The mayoral candidates' obsession with flooding the city with police officers and surveillance equipment takes place in the context of recent revelations of massive government spying on American citizens by the Obama administration. In Detroit and nationally the ruling elite is aware of the growing anger and opposition of workers and is responding with the buildup of the repressive forces of the state.
The lack of discernable differences between the establishment candidates was striking. Throughout the forum the various candidates frequently patted each other on the back. They complimented each other on their "common vision" for Detroit, and more than once issued invitations for the other candidates to "join their cabinet" in the event that they were elected. As members of Detroit's Democratic Party establishment, they are jostling not just for mayor, but positions within the new administration.

    <title>Example 07.03 - Particle Basic Material</title>


We welcomed the recommendation to give Mexico restaurant a try – something a little different from our usual Cheapeats repertoire.
Two of us visited Mexico for Friday lunch, and from the look of the restaurant, so had most of the office workers in Britomart! It was absolutely packed, and apparently it is like this most of the time. The rule here is, if you see an empty seat, grab it! Well, it is one way of meeting new people!
Mexican food has the reputation of being heavy and stodgy, but this is due to the misinterpretation of its cuisine. We were glad to see lots of interesting tastes on offer on the menu.
This is one of those small-plates types of restaurants, which fits perfectly into the Cheapeats budget and also makes it fun to try several different dishes.
We decided to try two soft shell tacos ($6 each): the adobo fish with watermelon and watercress slaw, and the achiote rubbed beef, with citrus cured eschalots. We also ordered the green bean, potato, watercress salad with roast garlic chimichurri ($10).
It didn't take long for our food to arrive. The soft shell tacos were small – really 2-bite sized. We particularly liked the beef taco, with its richly flavoured meat. The salad was a reasonable size with a creamy chimicurri dressing which didn't lend enough flavour to the dish. I personally do not like unsalted potatoes, and we both found the salad too bland, so we asked for salt. As the Masterchef judges say, "season your dish"!
This was most definitely a light lunch which suited us, and I would recommend that you order two dishes per person as a start, and go from there. The Specialties section of the menu includes their "not to be missed" fried chicken ($12), and the passing plates did look good. Other specialties included ceviche ($14), a chorizo, olive and blackbean empanada ($12), mussel and prawn vinaigrette with grilled corn bread ($14).
There are lots of drinks options on the menu – both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. There is a good selection of Mexican beers, cocktails, sangria, margaritas and soft drinks and juices, but only a couple of wine options. BYO wine carries a $20 corkage.
My take on Mexico? A fun place to have a bite to eat and a drink. Even if you do not arrive with friends, chances are you will have made a few by the end of your visit!

Here are 9 chaos CFB scenarios you may (or may not) root for this weekend
By Nicole Auerbach
With just one weekend left in the regular season, the path for many of the College Football Playoff contenders is growing clear. But there's still always a chance for chaos. And if there is a chance for chaos, you know The Athletic is ready for it, with scenarios scratched out on bar napkins that now give way to a full-on blueprint for this crazy spot's natural apex.
Here are some weird, wacky and hilarious results to root for over holiday weekend — if your favorite team isn't involved and you'd like to see the world burn. In no particular order:
Two in-state programs trending in the opposite direction: A suddenly red-hot Vanderbilt, on the heels of two consecutive SEC wins in Clark Lea's second season, beats a Tennessee team that has nothing left to play for. Hendon Hooker is out for the year, and the Vols' CFP chances burst into flames after that blowout loss to South Carolina. Two teams trending in opposite directions … could Vanderbilt pull off the upset and get win No. 6 — and to its first bowl game since 2018?
Nightmare Playoff scenario for the SEC: Texas A&M, out of nowhere, takes down an LSU team looking ahead to the SEC Championship Game. This ends a dreadful and historic season for the Aggies on a most unexpected win and creates a potential nightmare Playoff scenario for the SEC.
Nightmare Playoff scenario for the SEC, Part II: Let's throw in a Georgia Tech upset of Georgia, too. That would get the Yellow Jackets bowl-eligible under interim head coach Brent Key! And … what happens if three-loss LSU beats one-loss Georgia? Can't put the Tigers into the four-team field. Georgia's inclusion is pretty dicey if it has one of the worst losses of any title contender. Could the SEC, just three weeks ago, go from putting potentially three SEC teams into the Playoff to zero? Would (gasp!) Alabama get back into the mix in such a truly chaotic situation?
The magic runs out: Iowa State, behind a defense that ranks fifth in the nation in Max Olson's stop rate, stymies Max Duggan and a valiant comeback effort. TCU's magic runs out, and its Playoff path gets far muddier with a late-season loss to a team with a sub-.500 record. Of the two upcoming games, this would be the less likely loss for TCU and thereby most chaotic.
Texas is back? Kansas, which became a national darling this season as the Jayhawks returned to respectability, upsets in-state rival Kansas State. And that, coupled with a Texas win against Baylor on Friday, creates a "Texas Is Back!" scenario and sends the Longhorns to the Big 12 title game in one of the most entertaining backdoor ways possible.
Clemson loss(es): ACC disaster scenarios are pretty straightforward. It's a Clemson loss. So, Clemson loses to South Carolina, led by the suddenly spectacular Spencer Rattler fresh off of the Gamecocks' massive upset of Tennessee. Or the Tigers lose to North Carolina in the ACC Championship Game, because the Tar Heels have no chance to make the CFP, either.
Notre Dame with two terrible losses, three terrific wins: Notre Dame beating USC to knock the Trojans out of the Playoff. The Irish would then have two of the worst losses anyone has this year (to Marshall and Stanford) but three wins over teams playing for conference championships next weekend. Essentially, Notre Dame could be solely responsible for eliminating both Clemson and USC from the Playoff…and the Irish could also get to 10 wins with a victory in a bowl game, a decidedly Not Bad ending to a season that flirted with disaster multiple times.
Utah, surprise Pac-12 title game participant: Oregon State beats Oregon in the game previously known as the Civil War and helps Utah make the Pac-12 title game via the backdoor. All of the following things need to happen for the Utes to reach Las Vegas: 1) Utah beats Colorado; 2) Washington beats Washington State; 3) UCLA beats Cal; and 4) Oregon State beats Oregon. I'd be shocked if Nos. 1 and 3 don't happen, and I feel fairly confident about No. 2. It'd be pretty wild if the Beavers get the Utes back to the title game after all the peaks and valleys of their season.
Iowa, and its offense, makes the Big Ten title game: Iowa beats Nebraska. That's it. That's all that needs to happen for the Hawkeyes to return to the Big Ten title game despite having one of the worst offenses in all of college football. Iowa ranks dead last among Power 5 teams in total yards per game (253.7), passing yardage (158.9), first downs per game (13.8), third down conversions (28.9 percent) and plays of scrimmage that go at least 10 yards. And yet…Iowa may still play for a Big Ten title. The Hawkeyes upsetting Ohio State or Michigan in the title game would be an all-time chaos result.
For fans of teams mentioned above, you are welcome for the reverse jinx. Alternatively, please don't blame me if I'm right. I'm a chaos agent just like your team.

Time to write about our trip!
LA is one of my favorite cities in the world to visit (besides any Japanese city wtf) so we were absolutely stoked! The only cloud on the horizon is we couldn't bring Fighter. T_T I was so ready to bring him and was already preparing his application for US visa… until everyone told us it's not a good idea to bring him. Also my parents and Fatty's parents were revving up to take care of him hahaha so okay la he gets to spend some quality time with the grandparents.
Checking in to our flight!
Our route this time was KL-HK-LA which is actually shorter than if you stop in Narita or Seoul! Cos KL-Narita is 7 hours compared to HK's 3 and the time from transit to LA is still the same, whether HK or Narita or Seoul! Good to know if you wanna make travel plans wtf.
Anyway we touched down… checked in to our Airbnb which weirdly enough, neither of us took photos of.
First stop was The Grove for dinner!
Guess where our first meal ever in LA was? Guess la guess.
Ya Cheesecake Factory. Compliments of the Fatty and his love for dessert.
Went home after that and collapsed from jet lag.
Next morning! Nah can see the apartment or not wtf.
#Audfit is from Evris! Shoes are my well worn Emodas.
Hello nice complexion. T3T Skin no more this color cos kena burned, thanks crazy Vegas sun.
Breakfast was at a famous French bakery called Chaumont. Look at the purty pastries!
And my smoked salmon with eggs was yummersssss. But their key product is just a plain croissant.
Dunno how they do it but the croissant was soft, yet flaky and so tasty! No photos cos we demolished it in a second wtf.
Went a bit crazy with the Carter's and Osh Kosh. So cheap! The most expensive also is confirmed 50% only of the price we get back in KL.
Watch out for Fighter's OOTDs soon! Hahaha.
This was another day. Fatty's conference in Santa Monica had started so that's where we went.
The hotel the conference was at is called Shutters on the Beach. I don't even know how to describe it but it's very…shutter-y…and beach-y. WTF. Hahahaha it was like a very beautiful beach house la. Done up in white wood and shutters, not like the Bali style beach houses we normally see here.
I chilled in the restaurant and had breakfast by myself.
A family sitting nearby were snickering at my problems fml.
And if you're wondering if I ate my eggs (after I shooed away the bird)… yes. Yes I did. I was hungry. And it was expensive.
After Fatty's conference we went back to Beverly Hills and checked out Rodeo Drive.
Dinner was at this garlic-themed restaurant called The Stinking Rose hahaha also in Beverly Hills, really near our apartment. Food was just so-so to be honest. Fatty had steak and I had shrimp pasta.
Obviously I had to ask.
The waitress looked a bit surprised but acquiesced with my request.
It's basically a big stuffed garlic perched on a baseball cap and they gave me a hairnet to wear with it, cos obviously it's not washed with every use WTF.
Now I know why the waitress looked surprised. Obviously nobody else wants to wear it and I'm the rare crazy person asking for it hahahaha.
I hurriedly gave the garlic hat back.
Oh another day we headed over to Venice Beach (which is super close to Santa Monica) to hang out again. THere's tons of things to see and do there.
One of which is riding a Segway!
Super fun! You don't need an balancing or cycling skills also. All you need to do is lean forward to go and pull back to slow down or stop.
Me and Fats and his Venice Beach outfit. -_- He was wearing conference clothes so he just bought an entire suit of souvenir clothes to wear on the beach. Some more asked me if I wanted but hell no I ain't wasting money on logo tees I won't wear again.
Oh and then guess who joined us in LA!!!!
Us again on the pier.
The awesomeness that is Santa Monica Pier.
Le Shorty and le Fatty.
This time we rented tandem bikes to ride!
LALALAA. Look ma, I can multitask!
One without my flowerhorn forehead.
The immense beaches of Southern California.
Exhausted in the car after our ride.
In front of the Mann's Chinese Theatre.
We took a tour of it.
It's where a lot of movies premiere, so there were some cool exhibits.
Like this! The curtain dress Scarlett O'Hara wore in Gone With The Wind.
Then we bumped into Tom. No big deal.
We are so tight we even selfie together okay.
After that, we had reservations at a Gordon Ramsay restaurant! There was some food campaign going on in LA and apparently certain restaurants would have special packages at special prices. And this Gordon Ramsay place was one of them.
Whole restaurant filled with Asians. :X Figures we're the ones who go for the promotions hahahaha.
The food was pretty decent but not what you'd expect from Gordon Ramsay? Good enough la and good pricing too.
Oh funny storeh! Angela and I went to the bathroom and we were waiting outside with another girl cos the girl told me it's a single bathroom, not with multiple stalls.
So we waited… then when the lady inside came out, the girl waiting with us went to take her turn in the bathroom.
I got a peek at the bathroom when the door opened and I thought it looked huge! I said "oooh it has more than one stall inside la!" and I yanked open the door WTF.
Hahahahahaha she must have been damn angry at me! Some more she already told me one bathroom only but I never listen. The bathroom decor very misleading btw, walls all covered in mirrors giving the illusion that it's very big.
Then she stayed in there for a looong time. Either she had to take a poop (in which case she must have been even angrier at me for getting in the way of her poop mojo) or she was hiding out in fear of me wtf.
Look at this bulldog!!! Damn cute right!!! He just sat there very quietly and guai-ly when we arrived outside the restaurant.
I was super enamored and proceeded to take a bazillion photos of this calm quiet dog.
Then after five minutes of snapping I realized it's a statue. WTF!!!!
And everybody just stand there and let me take without telling me!!!!! Strangers all probably slowly sidling away don't wanna stand so near this crazy person taking photos of a fake dog.
In my defense he looked extremely real wtf.
If I'm the girl in the toilet, I might revenge lol.
The toilet matter is really funny. I also thought that dog is a real one. OMG so real!


Since 1995, the Data Protection Directive (Directive 95/46/EC) has determined how individuals' personal data is protected within the EU. However, since its inception there have been vast developments in the sophistication and scale of data creation and gathering – for example through the emergence of social media, cloud computing and geolocation services.
As the directive predates these developments, it's no longer suitable to govern the current data landscape; it needs to be refreshed to address modern privacy concerns and facilitate consistency across the EU. This is what the GDPR will do.
The new regulation introduces a huge range of changes. In this article [ 999 kb ], we outline what those changes are, what this means for your business and how to get ready for the GDPR.

Next up in our interview series is Molly McNerney, Observation Baltimore's Recruiting Supervisor. Read on to find out what she thinks is the key element to Baltimore research and what fascinates her about the market research industry.
You supervise the recruiting for all our research projects. How do you ensure the most qualified respondents participate in the groups?
We have a robust database which allows us access to people all over the Baltimore area. We understand that respondents have to not only meet the criteria set by clients, but also be engaging when in an interview or focus group. Respondents must go through a rigid screening process to determine if they are a good fit for the study. We take great pride in making sure that our respondents are of high quality and offer great insight for our clients.
What do you think is a key element to successful Baltimore research?
The most important factor is having a great understanding of the market. We have being conducting research in Baltimore for over 20 years, so we really understand the nuances of the city and surrounding counties. Many of our staff grew up here, and many have lived her for a long period of time, so we are Baltimore through and through.
What drew you to the market research industry?
I come from an advertising and public relations background, so I felt my skills could be applied well in a market research environment. I am fascinated by working with and speaking to people from all types of backgrounds. The research we do is always ahead of the curve, so we get to see things before the general public does. We do research with so many different industries, from CPG and healthcare to financial services and education, that no two days are the same.
What is one thing people may be surprised to know about you?
I like to paint in my free time. I love the Baltimore City skyline, but I also am interested in more rural settings. I recently moved out of Baltimore, so I enjoy exploring my new surroundings and documenting my travels with art.
I have done a lot of traveling, but next on my list of places to visit is probably Peru. I have heard great things about the beautiful views and landscapes. I have always wanted to climb Machu Picchu, so hopefully I will be able to do that sooner rather than later. I may even bring my portable easel!

Sometimes vim's smartindent does not pick the correct level of indentation for the next line once you hit enter and you'd like to go back to the indentation level of the previous line and just go from there. I know that you can hit ctrl-d a few times to achieve this but it would be more useful for a key that immediately goes to the indentation level of the line above.

A: I don't know if it's pure coincidence, but Alexey Radev has just published the prev_indent plugin, which provides an insert mode mapping and :PrevIndent command to move the current line to the previous indentation level.

A: In normal mode you can use < and > to increase or decrease indentation. They work as expected with movements, visual selection and >> << for the current line. You can also use = to chose the "correct" indentation level, again it works as expected with regards to movements etc.
So what I usually do is fix indentation errors in normal mode after I'm done editing, by a combination of block selecting and using =, and then fixing individual lines with << and >>.

A: If you can't be bothered to install a plugin for such a simple task (I couldn't), try this simple mapping:
:inoremap <C-D> <Esc>:call setline(".",substitute(getline(line(".")),'^\s*',matchstr(getline(line(".")-1),'^\s*'),''))<CR>I

Now CtrlD in insert mode will do the deed: indent the current line like the previous line.
This works best before you start typing on the new line, because it will reset the cursor to just past the indentation.

A: You can use <C-O>=G to indent from cursor to end of file in insert mode. Or <C-O><< to remove one indentation level.

Q: Expressing the Hypergeometric Function $_3F_2(a,a,b;p,p;x) $ in terms of $_2F_1()$ Is it possible to express the Clausen Hypergeometric Function $_3F_2(a,a,b;p,p;x)$ (the first two parameters and the last two are identical) in terms of the Gauss Hypergeometric Function $_2F_1()$ and Gamma function, with transformed arguments?
The reason that I would really like to do this, is because the variable $x$ is outside the range $0 \le x< 1$ in which the simple series expansion  in terms of Pochhammer symbols is applicable. For the $_2F_1()$ function, I have a set of expansions with transformations for $x-$ values outside the range $0 \le x < 1$, following the paper "Computing the Hypergeometric Function" by Robert C. Forrey, Journal of Computational Physics, Vol. 137, #79, pp 79-100
Thanks

A: I need some help with a potential answer to my question:
Digging through Wolfram, I found the following:

where I'm assuming that the $\epsilon^{(2)}$ terms are some sort of series expansion coefficients of the $_3F_2$ function based on the parameters, and not the argument $z$. The site does not describe them in any detail. Any help here would be deeply appreciated.
Thanks
There is a result due to Choi and Hasanov that states

What is extremely unfortunate however, is that in my case, the element $\alpha_p < 0$ rendering this result inapplicable. Otherwise, this would've solved my problem, because it specifically reduces $_3F_2()$ to a summation of $_2F_1()$ which is exactly what I was seeking.


The concrete contractor finally returned on Friday, March 23rd with a break in the cold weather, and they finished pouring the concrete for the final underpinning section and the slab. They had to cut some holes on the side of the addition so they could get their concrete chute through.
In addition to this, we have hired a contractor to install gutters and shingles for the addition. Due to the age of the existing roof, the four layers of old shingles, leaks, and gutter problems, we decided to completely replace it. We think we'll do it in phases and first install the roof and gutters for the addition, and then rip off the old roof and gutters after the work on the existing house is underway.
Last summer I remember complaining and worrying about the cost of the electrical service upgrade and other permit fees. That pales in comparison to this over $50k roofing and copper gutter project – which doesn't even include the carpentry work to repair the rotten sections.
Tamko shingle samples from our roofer. Our current roof is reddish brown, and we wanted something brown but darker. The one we picked is in the center.
Tamko Heritage Vintage Chestnut are the shingles we finally picked. These have a 50-year warranty. The roofer came out Friday to install the underlayment and begin the gutter work on the addition, but immediately ran into a problem with the roof construction that we need to sort out with the contractor: the carpenters notched the rafters where they intended the internal gutters to be installed, and stopped the sheathing at the notch. There's nothing for the internal gutters to rest on, nor is there any pitch designed into the roof. The roofer won't install the gutters on bare rafters. So, we are at a standstill while they sort those details out.
In better news, I went into the basement through the escape window to check it out for the first time.
View in from the escape window. That beam will be replaced with a load-bearing wall.
Escape window in the background. Last underpinning section in the foreground. Sewer pipe will be beneath the staircase.
Those three square boxes at the far wall will be the basement windows. I think we'll put a television on that wall right below them. The square under the escape window is plywood set into the slab for the bathroom shower. It is designed to be flush with the floor.
Now I can see what the HVAC contractor was doing for days and days… The ductwork is concealed in the joists so that we have a smooth basement ceiling with no bulkheads.
A view of the temporary beam. Notice the spot over the sewer pipe where the floor joists are just 2x4s? That will be removed when the staircase is installed. The dark black is the old basement wall. You can see we are much, much lower.
Finally, the contractor came out to meet with me on Friday to review and finalize the window order. We double-checked the measurements and grille patterns on the windows and door. Once we order them, we expect them to take 4-6 weeks for Marvin to manufacture them.

I am all about right action for the right reason.
Father, today's reading below is a hefty reminder of 'appearances' and how they fool no one including myself. I know exactly when I'm doing something simply for appearances and when I fall out of alignment with You. The scripture below reminds me of how radical Jesus lived His Life because He was not at all impressed or fooled by appearances. He knew when someone was fasting for appearances. He knew! It reminds me of the time when Jesus overheard the Pharisees asking someone, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and other bad people?" He did not let this question slide, instead He gently confronted their question and said, "Healthy people do not need a doctor. It is the sick people that need a doctor." Jesus was not concerned about appearances or whether He met the approval of others. He was not at all concerned about giving them the right answer that would suit their needed appearance. Instead, He gave them THE ANSWER and was gentle and non-confrontational about it.
Jesus was bold, radical and revolutionary. He was on a mission from You. Jesus hung out with the bad people and was not concerned in the least bit that the bad people would rub off on Him. In fact, His mission was to rub off on them. Jesus knew EXACTLY what He was doing. And so it goes in our lives, we have been taught not to hang out with the bad people because they might influence us to be bad. We have been taught to do certain things for 'appearances' sake. But what if we broke through the 'appearances' game and maintained our 'Jesus stance.' This begs the question in me Father, what if I didn't care what others think and I only cared what You think? How would I act and react then?
Jesus once said, "I will tell you something. Go and learn what it means: 'I don't want animal sacrifices; I want you to show kindness to people.'" He was all about right action, not right appearances. In the Scripture below Jesus was telling them that fasting is a sign of mourning and would be inappropriate while He was still with them proclaiming the Kingdom of God. It would be just as inappropriate to fast at a marriage feast, which is a celebration. He was also giving them a glimpse of when He would no longer be with them. He was basically saying, 'Forget appearances people, the appropriate time will come to fast.' Thank You Father for this awareness today and that the Only One I should be concerned about pleasing is You. If I am in Your mindset, then I will already be making the 'right choices' for the 'right reasons' and not for the right appearance.
14 Then the disciples of John approached Him and said, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast (much), but your disciples do not fast?"
15 Jesus answered them, "Can the wedding guests mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? The days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast."

Carlton Blues odds
The Carlton Football Club is one of the traditional powerhouse teams in Australian footy. The Blues have won 16 VFL/AFL premierships – a record matched only by Essendon.
The last two decades or so have not been especially kind to Carlton. A series of salary cap breaches caught up with the club in 2002, sinking an already-struggling team into serious strife both on and off the field. Some ill-advised personnel changes have not helped (read Mick Malthouse), nor the emergence of the Gold Coast Suns and GWS Giants.
Things went from bad to worse in 2018 as the Blues finished bottom of the ladder with only two wins for the season. But with new recruits coming in and young guns such as Sam Walsh and Harry McKay starting to make their presence felt, not all hope is lost.
How far can the Blues go in the 2021 AFL Premiership season? Let's see what the bookies have to say.
About the Carlton Football Club
Home ground: Melbourne Cricket Ground
Coach: Michael Voss
Captains: Patrick Cripps, Sam Docherty

Best Carlton bets for the 2021 AFL season
There are dozens of AFL futures markets for Carlton, but where are they likely to return some real value?
Carlton 2021 premiership betting
Stranger things have happened, but not bloody often. The Blues are a team in transition and have a long way to go before they can be considered even an outside chance of winning their first flag since 1995. To paraphrase Obi Wan Kenobi, this is not the bet you are looking for.
A flag might be out of the question, but things are looking up for the Blues. There is no doubting the club is on an upward trajectory, and the arrival of gun recruits Adam Saad and Zac Williams should help. If Harry McKay continues to progress, finals should be within reach for Carlton.
Patrick Cripps had a down year by his lofty standards in 2020, but he is always one to watch in the Brownlow Medal betting. Sam Walsh in his third year is a solid roughie prospect.
Coleman Medal betting
Harry McKay's finish to 2020 would have Blues fans expecting big things this year, but can he take the next step and become one of the game's premier key forwards? He offers a bit of value in the Coleman Medal betting.
Blues players to watch in 2021
Patrick Cripps
The burden of captaincy has ruined many a young gun at this level, but Patrick Cripps looks like a natural fit for the role. He trimmed down last year and lost a little bit of his impact in the clinches, but the West Australian star had made it clear that he will be bulking up again for the 2021 campaign. If he isn't at his best, Carlton may struggle.
Harry McKay
With Charlie Curnow out for an extended period, Harry McKay has emerged as the next big thing in Carlton's forward line. He showed glimpses of brilliance last season, especially at the tail end of the campaign, so Blues fans will be excited to see what he can produce in 2021. On his day, McKay is hard to stop.
Sam Walsh
Having set such a high bar in his Rising Star-winning campaign, it might be harsh to say Sam Walsh suffered a case of second-year blues in 2020. The return to full-length quarters should help this hard-running midfield gun, and the arrival of Zac Williams might just see Walsh fly under the opposition's radar at times this year.

Carlton history
The Carlton Football Club was founded in 1864 and soon emerged as one of the powerhouse teams on the Melbourne footy scene. It was a founding member of the Victorian Football Association and won the inaugural premiership in 1877. That success was fleeting, however, and the Blues were among the weakest teams around when the Victorian Football League commenced in 1897.
Fortunes changed when Jack Worrall was elected as club secretary in 1902. The former Test cricketer took an unprecedented hands-on approach with the playing group and led the Blues to three consecutive premierships from 1906 to '08. Worrall is now widely regarded as the first-ever coach – and one of the greatest – in Aussie rules football.
The first 15 years of the 20th century were among the most successful in Carlton's history. Whereas other teams ceased operations during the height of hostilities in Europe, the Blues carried on. They won the 1914 and 1915 flags for a total of five in the space of 10 years.
Although the years between the wars were light on premiership titles, Carlton remained one of the most competitive and popular teams in the VFL. It was during that time that two of the club's first superstars emerged: Horrie Clover and 'Soapy' Vallence, who kicked over 1100 goals between them.
As the '40s faded, so too did Carlton's on-field presence. The team reached finals only four times between 1950 and 1964, when a boardroom shuffle led to one of the most famous acquisitions in Australian sporting history.
Ron Barassi had already played in six premierships for Melbourne when the Blues appointed him as captain-coach for the '65 season. He led them to three consecutive VFL Grand Finals for two famous wins: against Essendon in 1968 and over Collingwood in the storied 1970 decider. This era produced some of the club's greatest-ever players, including John Nicholls, Alex Jesaulenko, Robert Walls and Sergio Silvagni.
The rest of the '70s are best remembered for near-misses and a revolving door of coaches. Happy days returned in the 1979 title match against the Pies, when Wayne Harmes teed up Ken Sheldon for one of the most famous goals in VFL history. They carried that form into the 1980s, winning flags in '81, '82 and '87 to become the most successful club in Victoria.
The 1990s were tumultuous for a number of reasons. The arrival of a national competition also heralded the dismantling of traditional recruitment zones, meaning Carlton no longer had first dibs on top talents from the strong country leagues of Bendigo and the Victorian Goldfields. They won the 1995 premiership in between grand final defeats in '93 and '99, but that period was dogged by a culture of salary cap breaches and backroom dealings that culminated in severe penalties in 2002.
The Blues have never been the same since. Former captain Brett Ratten had them heading in the right direction and until the board replaced him with Mick Malthouse in 2012. That move proved disastrous at a time when the top draft picks were reserved for expansion clubs in Gold Coast and Sydney. Brendon Bolton took over as head coach in 2015 and began the slow, painful process of rebuilding a club from rock bottom.

The heart of Sonja Yoerg's All the Best People is Carole LaPorte, one of the book's narrators, a mother of three and wife to Walt, the owner of an auto shop in small-town 1970s Vermont. Carole's world starts to fall apart when she begins to question whether she might be like her mother, Solange, who has been locked in Underhill, the nearby mental health facility, ever since Carole was ten years old.
Carole's daughter Alison isn't much older than Carole was when Solange was sent away. She struggles to find friends to relate to and suffers as her mother grows more and more withdrawn. Carole's much-younger sister Janine struggles as well: a widow in her early thirties, she's had to return to work as a secretary, and she's miserable in her newly low social station. She starts planning ways to regain her status.
As Carole's crisis grows, and Janine's poor decisions worsen, the dark history of the LaPorte family seems destined to repeat itself. Yet, small heroics from unexpected places might just be enough to avert tragedy.
Told from multigenerational, rotating points-of-view, and set deeply in the heart and history of Vermont—including a famous historical legal case for any law nerds out there—All the Best People handles many sensitive issues with aplomb: classism, mental illness, eugenics, and more. For anyone who knows me, I'm both a lawyer and a mental health expert, and I give this book, one that covers both topics, my strong endorsement. It is rare to find a book about mental illness that gives the disabled person center stage, that is, a voice, a chance to speak for herself. And here, Yoerg does just that, with both grace and beauty.
An excellent read for those who enjoy history, place, and strong characters – and stories about family.
Sonja Yoerg grew up in Stowe, Vermont, where she financed her college education by waitressing at the Trapp Family Lodge. She earned her Ph.D. in Biological Psychology from the University of California at Berkeley, and studied learning in blue jays, kangaroo rats and spotted hyenas, among other species. Her non-fiction book about animal intelligence, Clever as a Fox, was published in 2001. She has published three novels: House Broken, The Middle of Somewhere, and All the Best People.

Avatar: The Way Of Water's VFX Blow Away Marvel And Thanos, Says James Cameron
Dec 9, 2022 business, movies, The Way
James Cameron can't help himself but to take digs at the Marvel Cinematic Universe. His latest barb sees the Avatar: The Way of Water director stating that his film's visual effects are better than what audiences saw with Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame.
Cameron was asked by ComicBook.com (via Variety) whether Marvel's special effects had served as motivation when making Avatar: The Way of Water. He pivoted to how comic book movies have led to more talent overall in the area. "The rising tide of technique raises everybody together," Cameron said.
But then Cameron took his shot at Marvel while also boasting about the Avatar sequel. "That said, Weta FX, as it's called now, is the best. Right? Industrial Light and Magic does great work, but when it comes to the kind of emotive facial stuff that we're doing… Thanos? Come on. Give me a break," Cameron said. "You saw [Avatar: The Way of Water]. It's not even close. It's what Weta did."
Interestingly enough, Cameron began the video interview by explicitly stating he wouldn't diss the Marvel or DC universes. He even added that he "loves those movies."
But this isn't the first time Cameron has had strong words for Marvel–and DC for that matter. In October, the filmmaker said superhero movies lack emotional maturation for the main characters.
"When I look at these big, spectacular films, I'm looking at you, Marvel, and DC, it doesn't matter how old the characters are, they all act like they're in college," Cameron told the New York Times. "They have relationships, but they really don't. They never hang up their spurs because of their kids."
Cameron has been making the press rounds in the leadup to Avatar: The Way of Water premiering December 16. For instance, he's not worried about "trolls and naysayers" predicting that his film will flop.
Early tracking estimates point to Avatar: The Way of Water making around $150 million to $170 million opening weekend in the United States. That would be a notable increase from the original's debut of $77 million.
That said, Cameron has said that the Avatar sequel is the "worst business case in movie history."
