Autopsy: Feast For A Funeral comic book coming this Halloween
California Bay area death metal pioneers, Autopsy, and E-Comix are pleased to announce that Halloween 2012 will be ground zero for the release of "Autopsy: Feast For A Funeral," a fully-authorized comic book by one of the music industry's biggest names in metal.
"Autopsy has driven the hearse to bring death metal to the masses since the late 1980s," said E-Comix President and Publisher, Vince Brusio. "It was a natural fit to fuse their brand of music with a grisly ghost story. So we took the cover image of Severed Survival, expanded on it, and developed a story that takes place on Halloween night. It's pretty gory stuff. As it should be."
Vocalist/drummer for Autopsy, Chris Reifert, commented, "We're damn excited about this, and know it will be a real killer when it's done!"
Fans can now order "Autopsy: Feast For A Funeral" online
Shown the cover and told the plot for the book at the 10th Anniversary Maryland Deathfest, Autopsy gave the green light for the project, which brings to life the band's brand of doom in a ferocious full-color nightmare.
The comic book tells the tale of college kids who make a terrible mistake. One for which they must suffer, and pay in blood. When they play with stolen property at an impromptu field party, they open a doorway that allows spirits into our material world. A rescue is planned, but none of this is made known to a rival biker gang that doesn't appreciate their turf trampled on by strangers. Seeking vengeance, the gang approach an old abandoned house to wreak havoc on their party crashers, and learn too late that once the door to Hell is opened it can't be closed.
Check out the "Autopsy: Feast For A Funeral" trailer.
One of the early breed of US death metal acts, and most respected names in the genre, Autopsy formed in 1987 in San Francisco, and released four albums on Peaceville Records – beginning with the classic debut Severed Survival in 1989 – before disbanding in 1995 with members going on to form Abscess.
Autopsy triumphantly and officially returned from the grave after a 15-year hiatus with the 2010 EP, 'The Tomb Within,' delighting critics and fans alike.
The band then released its fifth full length, and first since 1995, Macabre Eternal, in 2011 and the extensive documentary, Born Undead, earlier this year.

I love you, I do not speak english, so I send a message with google translation.
My friends, I have apistogramma type fish. How should the proportion of ladies of these fish be compared to men?
I have an aquarium of 200 gallons, a glass aquarium with 5 bridges. Each region has 40 liters of water.
How many men and how many women?
Some of our friends say why women are too many?
They are beautifull but mean fish. If they dont have enough space they fight.
They take territories and protect it from other apistogramma.
If you have a seperate aquarium for only females, You can keep a few extra females and switch out the females that haven't paired with the males in your divided aquarium.
This is how I breed my various rams. The weak males get put into my large communities. The breeder males get forced female partners, if they don't pair and breed I switch out the female until there's success.
How Many Small Tetras Would You Recomend?

Since the days when only Natives inhabited our vast land, Canadians have been adapting to their local environment, using locally available materials to construct dwellings and build communities. Today, Canada is recognized as a world leader in the housing.
Canada Post will issue a pane of nine domestic-rate Housing stamps this September. Each stamp focuses on one of Canada's celebrated housing structures, with images that evoke the social, environmental, cultural and technological contexts in which these homes were built.
Though log cabins are the best known type of housing among European settlers, there were several others as well. Scottish "crofters" or tenant farmers sometimes built stone huts. French immigrants built farmhouses using a structure that came to be called "Red River Frame" or "Hudson's Bay Company Frame". Settlers on the plains used the land itself, cutting and layering sods much like a bricklayer would use clay bricks. Called "soddies", these dwellings were warm in winters and cool in summers but tended to be dark, leaky and a haven for insects.
On the occasion of the Heritage Canada Foundation's 25th anniversary, Canada Post salutes its valuable efforts and recognizes, too, the more than 50 years of service which the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) has provided to Canadian dwellers across the country.

I know some bloggers who have hit minimalism and the capsule wardrobe on the head, and they look great. Xandra from Heroine Training and Emma from The Edinbug are two examples, and both of them look absolutely fantastic; they're colourful and vibrant, and you just have to have a look at their Instagram feeds (here and here) to see there's no denying this. In fact the very first time I met Xandra I was so wowed by her beautiful coat that I couldn't stop staring at it. I am such a creep.
The thing is, it seems both these women are an anomaly. I have a wardrobe literally bursting with every possible colour and style, from vintage to the slightly avant-garde. I have neutral basics and I have stacks and stacks of Black Milk lycra that would make your eyes water. I adore variety. I love every conceivable shape and cut, every hue from pure black to neons, and it's something that makes me undeniably happy to be able to reach into my closet and come out with an outfit that screams 1950s teenager, goth, 90s grunge princess, or cartoon character. The worst thing somebody could say to me is that I look…boring. Simple shapes and "grown up" clothes are not my jam. My tights have cats on them. My jewellery? Toy dinosaurs and a lot of laser cut perspex. The only time you'll see me in a black shift dress is if I'm going to a funeral.
I feel like my sense of stye hasn't so much evolved over the years, but has been added to; I'm definitely not someone who follows trends. My style icons include Marcelline the Vampire Queen, Beetlejuice, at least one of the Bananas in Pyjamas, 90s Winona Ryder, Olivia Newton-John in Grease (pre-transformation), flamingos, Frida Kahlo, the Powderpuff Girls, 80s Madonna and rainbow trout. So tell me how this would be condensed down into a set number of core pieces? I'd rather shop at vintage or charity shops than on the high street, and anything I no longer wear or fit into? They get swapped with friends. Some items get taken to charity shops so someone else can give them a loving home.
The concept of the capsule wardrobe seems to be about setting arbitrary rules for ourselves, compartmentalising everything into sections and seasons in an almost mathematical and calculated way. The problem is that this number is so random and doesn't take into account our individual needs. What do I want from my wardrobe? I work from home most of the time, but I also own an art gallery which hosts regular exhibitions. I attend events both as a blogger, and on behalf of my business. I'm at trade shows and design festivals several times a year. I can't be that chick in beige, nor do I want to be. I would wither up and die. In my line of work, I need to look (and be) memorable.
Compartmentalising our wardrobes into a set number of items isn't practical because it doesn't take into account our actual requirements. What I am looking for from my clothes can be hugely different from someone who works in retail, or in an office all day. What one person considers to be excessive may be minimal or "just right" to another, so this idea there is a magic number just doesn't work for me.
It shouldn't become a numbers game. Isn't the very principle of minimal living only surrounding ourselves with the things we find meaningful and beautiful, that bring joy when we look at them?
LOVE and agree with all of this! fashion is about PERSONALITY not formula!

THE "HENDY" 302
Flight, July 1934
NEW AEROPLANES IN KING'S CUP RACE
Hendy 302, также построенный в единственном экземпляре, представлял собой двухместный кабинный моноплан, построенный в 1929 году компанией "George Parnall & Company Ltd" по проекту Бэзила Хендерсона.
A Low-Wing Cabin Monoplane with Cirrus-Hermes Engine
FROM whatever point of view one regards it, the "Hendy" 302 monoplane, produced for the King's Cup Air Race, is a machine of more than usual interest. Aerodynamically, it is characterised by high efficiency, both in the matter of minimum drag and high L/D and high Kl max. Structurally, it is simple, robust and rigid, at the cost, perhaps, of a slightly increased structure weight. And as a practical aeroplane for the private owner it is comfortable, roomy and well-behaved. In fact, put quite briefly, there is very little in the "Hendy" 302 that one could reasonably wish to have altered.
Before giving a description of the actual machine, a few notes dealing with the people who produced it may be of assistance to those of our readers to whom the Henderson Aircraft Company is something of an unknown quantity. Mr. Basil B. Henderson was, for several years, on the Avro technical staff at Hamble. When that firm decided to close down the Hamble works, Mr. Henderson resigned his position and formed, with Mr. H. A. Miles (who is not to be confused with Mr. F. G. Miles of the Southern Aircraft Co.), the Henderson Aircraft Co. A small shed was obtained at the Shoreham aerodrome, and in this, Henderson and Miles set to work. Mr. Henderson had for some time been pondering an idea for a new type of wing spar construction, and now was the opportunity to test out the idea on an actual machine. Funds were not too plentiful, and something unambitious was indicated. Mr. Henderson chose the type of machine which could be built at the smallest cost, while yet definitely proving the soundness or otherwise of Mr. Henderson's idea for a new spar. That machine was the little "Hobo," a single-seater low-wing monoplane with A. B.C. "Scorpion" engine. After many vicissitudes, the machine was completed and flown, and not only did it prove quite successful as a single-seater machine, but it showed that the new type of wing spar did in practice what Mr. Henderson had calculated that it should do. The spar was very rigid, and not only gave very little deflection under bending loads but, what was more important still, proved, as had been hoped, that the Henderson form of construction gave a wing very strong in torsion.
The "Hobo" was built in 1929. Mr. Henderson's programme included testing out the new spar on larger machines, either in wood or, if possible, in metal, the principle of the spar design lending itself very well to all-metal construction. In the meantime, Capt. E. W. Percival was interested in machines suitable for private owners, and was keen on getting a machine to fly in the King's Cup Air Race. The next step in Mr. Henderson's programme was a two-seater development of the little "Hobo," and the general "scheme" appealed to Capt. Percival. The upshot was that he decided to join forces with Henderson and Miles, they to do the actual design work, calculations, etc., and Percival to contribute practical advice out of his long and varied experience of aircraft at home and in Australia A contract was entered into with George Parnall of Bristol for the construction of the machine, and work was begun at once, as was very necessary in view of the fact that there was but four months in which to design and build the machine and test it out in readiness for the King's Cup Race.
In the experience of every aircraft designer it happens now and then that a certain prototype is absolutely "right" from the very start, and when that happens the final result is always very much better than in the case of a new type which has to have this, that and the other altered before it is absolutely "right." The "Hendy" 302, as the new two-seater was called, proved one of these instances. When it came to be tested it did all that was expected of it in the way of performance - or a little better. It appeared to have no vices, and its controls were effective over the whole speed range. In the King's Cup race, as we have previously pointed out, compass trouble prevented a good course being flown, and the machine was not "placed." Had the same average speed been maintained as that made good from London to Manchester, the "Hendy" 302 would have secured 2nd place. That was not to be, but those who watched closely the performance of the various machines realised that in the "Hendy" 302 one had a new type with an obviously good performance. It could not have beaten Miss Brown, and so on its handicap could not have won the race. But had it secured second place this would have been an excellent advertisement for the machine. There is no reason to doubt, however, that when the "Hendy" 302 is placed on the market it will find a ready sale, its performance and general qualities being sufficient to sell it, even without the advertisement of winning the race.
The "Hendy" 302 is a two-seater, low-wing cantilever monoplane, with the occupants protected by a hinged cabin top. It is difficult to believe that in these modern times anyone could object to a cabin, but should any potential purchaser of this machine do so, it would be a very simple matter to unship the hinged top and use the machine as an ordinary open touring aeroplane.
Structurally, the "Hendy" 302 is almost entirely of wood construction, the exception being the undercarriage legs, the engine mounting, and a very few metal fittings. Three-ply wood enters largely into the construction, the fuselage being planked with this material, which also serves many purposes in the wing structure.
The cabin is very roomy, and the seats are remarkably comfortable. Contrary to expectations, the view from both seats is very good. For some peculiar reason the chord of the wing seems to "shrink" as soon as the machine has reached a height of a hundred feet or so, and it is then possible from the rear seat to look over the leading edge while the rear seat is far enough back to enable one to look straight down. From the pilot's seat (the front one) the view is also very good in practically all directions, the narrow top of the engine cowling, and the generous window panel area, giving a degree of view which one would scarcely expect from an external examination of the machine.
A novel form of wing construction was, as already pointed out, the main reason for the construction of the little "Hobo," and this has been retained in the "302." The two main spars are T-section beams built up of a single central web of three-ply, with rectangular-section strips on each side forming the flanges, as shown in a sketch. The drag bracing, composed of wooden strips arranged in the form of a lattice, is in top and bottom planes of the spar flanges, and attached to them by three-ply gussets or "biscuits." The construction is very simple and has proved exceptionally strong in torsion. Moreover, it could readily be "translated" into metal construction, and we trust Mr. Henderson will have an opportunity to test his spar design on a metal wing. The wing section is a "calculated" one, in which the centre of pressure is not entirely stationary, but its movement has been kept down to a very small amount. We do not know what is the minimum drag coefficient of the section, nor the maximum lift coefficient, but the speed range of the machine indicates that the section is a good one, and on climb, taking into account slipstream effect, etc., the L/D of the whole machine is about 8-3, which is remarkably good.
The wide-track undercarriage is of the "split" type, and the telescopic legs have spiral springs and oleo gear for absorbing shock and damping bouncing. On the first machine plain wheels are used, but we gather that the production type will have wheel brakes.
A steel tube mounting supports the engine en porte a faux, forked plates securing the mounting to the fuselage corners. The engine cowling is slightly unusual, and has scoops in the top, from which short lengths of tube project down to the cylinder heads, directing the draught on to the hottest parts of the cylinder heads. Normally, the oil temperature does not exceed 50 deg., and even in the King's Cup Race, with the engine running "full out" the temperature never exceeded 70 deg. So that it looks as if the cooling is beyond reproach.
Petrol is carried in the wings. At present there is a tank of 16 gallons capacity in the port wing, and a gravity tank of 9 gallons in the fuselage. If desired, another 16-gallon tank can be put into the starboard wing, thus increasing the total capacity to 41 gallons, or a range of about 750 miles.
We had the pleasure recently of making a flight with Capt. Percival in the "Hendy" 302, and found the cabin very comfortable indeed, although the short exhaust pipes used in the King's Cup Race were still in place, which naturally made the noise greater than it will be in the production machine. The view, as already mentioned, was a great deal better than one would expect and is, in fact, well above the average. The machine handled nicely, and the performance was obviously good, both in take-off (although the racing prop. was still on), climb and speed. The speed range is as a matter of fact, unusually great, the maximum being about 132 m.p.h., and the minimum well below the 40 m.p.h. without the machine showing any tendency to fall into a spin. Cruising at 1,900 r.p.m., the speed is 112 m.p.h., and even throttled to 1,800 r.p.m., the speed is still over 100 m.p.h. At 1,900 r.p.m., the fuel consumption is about 6 gallons per hour, giving a mileage of about 19 miles per gallon (at 112 m.p.h.).
We gather that arrangements are now being made for the quantity production of the "Hendy" 302. In the meantime, anyone interested is advised to write to the Hendy Aircraft Co., at Shoreham Aerodrome, Sussex.
HENDY "HECK" AND "HOBO"
The "Hobo" was one of Mr. Henderson's earliest efforts, and when originally designed was fitted with the A.B.C. "Scorpion" engine of only 35 h.p. For the race a new Certificate of Airworthiness has been granted, allowing the use of a Pobjoy "Cascade" engine, and in this guise the performance should be quite out of the ordinary. The machine is particularly robustly constructed, with a three-ply covered fuselage, and has a very wide undercarriage. Although only a single-seater, its performance should be sufficiently high to give it a wide appeal amongst sporting pilots who like to have an open machine solely for the pleasure of flying. Constructionally, a definite family likeness can be traced from this machine via the "Hendy 302" (which, incidentally, was first produced as an open two-seater machine, and only had a cabin top fitted after it was acquired by its present owner, Mr. C. S. Napier, Technical Director of the Cirrus-Hermes Engineering Co.) down to the Hendy "Heck."
Mr. Henderson has consistently got just a little more out of his machines than has generally been expected, so both the "Heck" and the "Hobo" may be counted upon as possible "dark horses" for the race. The "Heck" has been built under the direction of Mr. Henderson in the Westland Aircraft Works at Yeovil.
Первоначально Hendy 302 оснащался двигателем Cirrus Hermes I мощностью 105 л. с. (78 кВт), но затем последний заменили на Cirrus Hermes IV мощностью 130 л. с. (97 кВт), а также перепроектировали кабину и установили шасси с обтекателями колес. Модифицированная машина стала называться Hendy 302A.
DESIGNED by Mr. Basil B. Henderson, this new machine has been but recently produced, and is something of a "dark horse." Last year Mr. Henderson produced the "Hobo," incorporating a novel form of wing construction, and the "302" is a development of the smaller machine, being a cabin two-seater. As the picture shows, it is a low-wing monoplane. The occupants are placed in tandem. The engine is a Cirrus-Hermes.

R&D: Authentically Mexican Peppers -- November 2008
It is clear that Americans love chile peppers in their foods. No longer restricted to wildly popular Hispanic foods, chile peppers can be found in a variety of mainstream items, such as condiments, dips, sauces, soups, appetizers, entrées, and even chocolate and dessert items.
"Mexican chiles, such as chipotle and arbol roasted flakes, are experiencing the most growth in the U.S.," states Roberto Espinoza, CEO, of PIVEG Inc., a Guanajuato, Mexico-based global company. PIVEG Inc. distributes chile products to the U.S., Europe, Asia and Latin America.
The chipotle chile flavor continues to shine and is fashionable with restaurant chains, as it is prominently featured in burgers, chicken, beef and other ethnic dishes. "As much as one-fifth of the Mexican jalapeño crop is processed as chipotles. Chipotle chile peppers are smoked jalapeños with a medium pungency, which adds to its distinctive sweet taste. Chipotle is widely used in Mexican and Southwestern cooking," says Rosemarie Aviles, area sales manager. Other chiles that have gained some ground are guajillos and pasillas, which are used in Hispanic foods such as tamales, moles and tacos.
PIVEG chiles are authentic, Mexican chiles that help to "showcase the real flavors of Mexico through our selection of chiles," says Espinoza. "This trend will continue to grow as the differences in the distinct flavors of different chiles become more apparent to the American palate, and the food industry starts to recognize the unique opportunities that different chiles provide."
A Consistent, Reliable Product
Due to labor shortages and limited culinary training, foodservice operators need products that are easy to use, consistently good and safe. Using the chile in its original pod form is inconvenient and time-consuming, so PIVEG's dried chile flakes and powders make including them in sauces, marinades, salsas, moles, dry rubs and other foods easy. "Our processed chiles take up less space, reduce shipping costs and spare kitchen help from the roasting process," says Espinoza. "By using dried chiles, chefs can concentrate on creating good food with mild to hot flavor profiles that cut down labor costs. Our products assist in the creative side of culinary arts."
The peppers also are available as finely granulated powders, in varieties such as chiles with salt, lemon, pineapple, orange, mango and tamarind flavors that can be used in applications such as jellies, candies, snacks, fruit and bakery items. Chile flakes are used to enhance texture and presentation featured in foods, such as enchiladas and marinades, and to top pizzas. Due to PIVEG's rigid quality control standard, the products are reliably consistent in the areas of odor, taste, color and pungency.
Operators may be interested in using the company's R&D lab services, which can develop new chile flavors or match a company's existing formulas, among other services. At the recent IFT show, most "suppliers were looking for authentic chiles harvested in Mexico [as opposed to imports from certain other areas]. Also, they were very interested in PIVEG's expertise in using chiles in unique ways. New product flavor profiles to include tropical, salt and pepper blends were introduced in the line of flavored films. [See sidebar.] They are looking for guaranteed supply at a good price," observes Aviles. The company's analytical and microbiological departments, in combination with GMPs, ISO 9002, HACCP and the state of California's Proposition 65 lead-free certifications, help PIVEG reach these important goals.

SIDEBAR: Gelatin Films
A line of gelatin and gum films allows manufacturers to impart concentrated flavors into sheets, strips or ground "sparkles," something unique to the food industry. (Ground sparkles can be created to give color, flavor and texture to any food mixture. An example is sweetened, colored apple sugar crystal blends for bar drinks such as martinis, explains Aviles.) The strips, manufactured by PIVEG Inc., also are useful for the functional food industry, where ingredients such as caffeine, vitamin mixes and blends, and energy ingredients can be incorporated for manufacture or used just as stand-alone products.
Explains Aviles, "The manufacturer can eliminate the need for blending and weighing spice mixtures and also save on shipping costs, storage and handling refrigerated or canned items…The result is a dry storage item that is concentrated and requires a smaller footprint in storage."

The Struts - Manchester HMV - 28th July 2014
When two of your friends of different vintage, of very different musical upbringings and taste, post extremely complimentary comments about a band, your interest is inevitably piqued. We nipped along to HMV's new store in Manchester Arndale to catch The Struts play a short acoustic show.
We really didn't know what to expect, the queue wasn't huge and was mainly populated by teenage girls. Knowing the two friends it clearly wasn't going to be a boy band so the intrigue deepened. And then they appeared.
You could write paragraphs and paragraphs about front man Luke Spiller. He looks like he could be a fifty year old rocker or a twenty-year old apeing his heroes, it's impossible to tell. When he speaks, you get a very polite well-spoken rather than a gravelly lived-in voice. Immediately you can see the connection he has with their audience making a girl in the front row cry by thanking her for her support right back from the start of their career and repeatedly telling the crowd they've got to where they are because of their fans. There's a little bit of cheese, a slight awkwardness, reminiscent of Tom Chaplin of Keane in their early days.
And the music? They're playing acoustically so it's difficult to judge the record that we've not heard on the basis of it, but they play Put Your Money On Me, She Makes Me Feel and Could Have Been Me.
From just those three songs you can tell they have an intuitive love of melody and harmony behind all that black leather and shades. The verses of She Makes Me Feels has echoes of Waterloo Sunset and Could Have Been Me of Wham's Freedom without feeling anything like a copy. It really should be awful, but it isn't, you can't help but tap your feet to them, you can't help but love them.
We're going to catch them when they do a full-on plugged-in show because we've been told that's something really special.
Their debut album Everybody Wants The Struts is out now and they're out on tour in October.
Their official website can be found here and they are also on Facebook and Twitter.

David Cobb, a fiery speaker and lifelong activist, is touring the country giving his talk "Creating Democracy & Challenging Corporate Rule." This presentation is part history lesson and part heart-felt call-to-action!
A lifelong activist and the 2004 Green Party candidate for President, David Cobb is touring the country for Move to Amend, the national coalition of over 241,000 people and organizations whose goal is to amend the US Constitution to end corporate rule and legalize democracy.
Cobb tells the story of the American creation myth and the Constitution as it pertains to Corporate Personhood and illegitimate but legal corporate constitutional rights, followed by about an hour of facilitated discussion with Q and A.
Both events are free and open to the general public, donations requested, no one turned away for lack of funds.
South Carolina will have a single statewide ballot question and a Richland county initiative on the November 6, 2012 ballot.
The SC Green Party has not taken a formal position on any of these issues, but offers the information below as a nonpartisan service.
Statewide Amendment 1: This ballot question would amend the SC state constitution to change the way that the governor and lieutenant governor are elected. Right now, both the governor and lieutenant governor run separate campaigns. The Lieutenant Governor presides over the state Senate but doesn't serve in the Governor's cabinet.
To change the office of Lieutenant Governor, vote YES. To leave the office of Lieutenant Governor as is, vote NO.
If approved, Amendment 1 would mean that the Governor would choose a Lieutenant Governor as a running mate. The Lieutenant governor would cease to be the presiding officer of the Senate.
Beginning with the general election of 2018, must Section 8 of Article IV of the Constitution of this State be amended to provide that the Lieutenant Governor must be elected jointly with the Governor in a manner prescribed by law; and upon the joint election to add Section 37 to Article III of the Constitution of this State to provide that the Senate shall elect from among the members thereof a President to preside over the Senate and to perform other duties as provided by law; to delete Sections 9 and 10 of Article IV of the Constitution of this State containing inconsistent provisions providing that the Lieutenant Governor is President of the Senate, ex officio, and while presiding in the Senate, has no vote, unless the Senate is equally divided; to amend Section 11 to provide that the Governor shall fill a vacancy in the Office of Lieutenant Governor by appointing a successor with the advice and consent of the Senate; and to amend Section 12 of Article IV of the Constitution of this State to conform appropriate references?
A 'Yes' vote will require, from 2018 onward, the Governor and Lieutenant Governor to run on the same ticket and be elected to office jointly. As a result, the Lieutenant Governor will no longer preside over the Senate and the Senate will elect their presiding officer from within the Senate body.
A 'No' vote maintains the current method of electing the Governor and Lieutenant Governor separately. The Lieutenant Governor shall continue to serve as President of the Senate.
Richland County will also have a ballot initiative which is broken into two parts. The first question would authorize a penny sales tax within the county to pay for three projects: roads, buses and paths. The second question would authorize bonds payable from the funds raised by the penny tax increase.
Voting YES on Question 1 would authorize the penny sales tax increase and fund the transportation projects. Voting NO would deny the increase and result in cuts in bus service.
Voting YES on Question 2 would enable the county to sell bonds to fund transportation projects, and pay those bonds back from the sales tax increase. Voting NO would deny the bond sale.
Project: 1: Improvements to highways, roads (paved and unpaved), streets, intersections, and bridges including related drainage system improvements.
Project 2: Continued operation of mass transit services provided by Central Midlands Regional Transit Authority including implementation of near, mid and long-term service improvements.
Project 3: Improvements to pedestrian sidewalks, bike paths, intersections and greenways.
I approve the issuance of not exceeding $450,000,000 of general obligation bonds of Richland County, payable from the special sales and use tax described in Question 1 above, maturing over a period not to exceed twenty-two (22) years, to fund projects from among the categories described in Question 1 above.
Instructions to Voters: All qualified electors desiring to vote in favor of the issuance of bonds for the stated purposes shall vote YES and all qualified electors opposed to the issuance of bonds for the stated purposes shall vote NO.


Magic (art) is a part of daily life. Whenever parents raise children, teachers educate students, or rulers govern societies, they require the knowledge of the arts that teach these skills. They become magicians or artists by the masterpieces of their craft that evoke wonder and admiration for the beauty, goodness, or perfection their handiwork achieves. Man as magician who sees how to bring out the image of God in human beings, how to lead the mind to the discovery of truth, and how to bring civilization out of chaos imitates God's creative activity in the world that brings light out of darkness and good out of evil.
Prospero, the magician in The Tempest, plays many parts in the drama that demonstrate these arts. He refines and educates Miranda, the beautiful daughter that Ferdinand beholds as love's contemplative. Prospero, overthrown as the duke of Milan by his usurping brother, survives on a barbaric island that he transforms into a lush paradise that astonishes upon first sight. Prospero, a master or teacher who studies the liberal arts, improves his two apprentices or servants, the invisible spirit Ariel and the primitive savage Caliban, son of a witch. As a magician whose art derives from his knowledge of the liberal arts and the books he cherishes, Prospero produces glorious miracles, beautiful works of art–not the sorcery of black magic to do evil used by the witch Sycorax in the play.
Prospero's first work of art on the island where he narrowly escapes from drowning on the sea is the release of Ariel from the tree where he has been impaled by the witch. Prospero sees the form of Ariel in the matter of the tree just as Michelangelo announced that he saw a David in the hunk of rock. Prospero's knowledge sees the spirit camouflaged in the tree, and his art frees Ariel's potential, his great creative energy. Another of Prospero's masterpieces is his daughter Miranda whose name means miraculous ("she who ought to be wondered at") and derives from the Latin miror (I am amazed). The epitome of purity, goodness, and beauty, Miranda implores her father to stop the tempest and spare the lives of the shipwrecked crew. Sensitive to human suffering and grateful for kindness, she wishes she might personally thank Gonzalo for saving their lives–for providing Prospero with books and rations in his desperate escape from Milan in a boat when besieged by enemies ("Would I might/ But ever see that man"). A beautiful soul and a lovely woman, Miranda moves Ferdinand to rapt contemplation: "Admired Miranda! / Indeed the top of admiration!"). Educated and civilized with manners and morals by her father, Miranda radiates the divine image of man that Prospero's art has fashioned.
As the ruler of an island Prospero uses the same magic, finding a primitive island ruled by diabolical forces and transforming it into a civilized society governed by the light of reason and justice. The island "prospers" under Prospero's government that brings the rule of law out of the barbarism of witchcraft and creates abundance out of scarcity. Like a philosopher-king who contemplates the ideal of justice and then governs according to this vision, Prospero renders decisions that temper justice with mercy and never resorts to revenge: "The rarer action is/ In virtue than in vengeance." The conspirators who usurped his kingdom and put him adrift in a boat to perish are subjected to the fury of the tempest and his righteous anger but never harmed or killed. When first discovering the island after the tragedy of shipwreck, Gonzalo marvels at being alive: "But for the miracle–/ I mean our preservation—few in millions/ Can speak like us." He is amazed at the lushness of the grass, the sweetness of the air, and the transfigured whiteness of their garments. Prospero's magic this time brings good out evil just as he released Ariel from the tree and educed the divine image from Miranda's human nature.
Prospero uses magic in his role as master or teacher of his two servants, Ariel and Caliban, whose natures vary as greatly as air and earth. Freed from the tree, Ariel travels all over the island utilizing earth, air, fire, and water to follow Prospero's orders to cause a storm and lead all the members of the ship safely to land. Prospero does not grant Ariel freedom from his service until the spirit perfectly follows Prospero's exact instructions and tends to every detail of the magician's work of art—rewarding or punishing everyone according to his just deserts and perfectly balancing justice and mercy. The master curbs the apprentice's undisciplined energy and demands obedience and excellence in finishing the work of art he is perfecting on the island. Likewise, Prospero punishes and disciplines the willful Caliban whose uncontrollable urges reduce him to savage or animal until Prospero refines him by teaching him speech and taming his wildness. As the magician-teacher, Prospero uses the art of checking the impulsive, whimsical Ariel and rousing the slothful, plodding Caliban. He brings out Ariel's excellence and improves Caliban by respecting their God-given natures and seeing the possibilities they possess.
Prospero's white magic, then, is art, the art of parenting, ruling, teaching, and creating—the art of releasing potential, eliciting the best and highest in human nature, awakening the latent powers that inhere in nature, and fashioning works of art and masterpieces that evoke wonder and contemplation. In this way Prospero imitates or "plays" God who brings light out of darkness, good out of evil, and comedy out of tragedy. Prospero's love of justice, mercy, beauty, and human wisdom all reflect the attributes of God who is all-good, all-merciful, all-beautiful, and all-knowing.
Editor's note: The image above is an engraving by James Heath, Engraver to his Majesty and his RH the Prince of Wales, after a painting by Thomas Stothard. This print of a scene from the Tempest was published in August 1803.

Kaizer Chiefs have received a scare after midfielder Lebo Manyama was involved in a car accident on Tuesday, but has been discharged from hospital with minor injuries.
Chiefs have confirmed the incident and while they confirm he was treated for injuries to his knee and elbow, have not stated when he will return to training.
"Kaizer Chiefs attacking midfielder Lebogang Manyama was involved in a car accident on Tuesday afternoon. The player was driving home from training when the incident took place," Chiefs said in a statement on their official website.
"He was rushed to hospital for examinations and x-rays. Doctors treated him for minor injuries to his knee and elbow and he has since been discharged.
"Manyama will be assessed further by the doctors to determine the extent of the injuries and advise when he will be fit to train again."
It is a blow for Manyama, who was regaining form in recent weeks after a long spell on the sidelines following his failed move to Turkish side Konyaspor.
He will in all likelihood miss Sunday's Telkom Knockout Last 16 clash at home to Black Leopards, but will hope to be fit for the Soweto Derby against Orlando Pirates on October 27.

Here's BP by the numbers...
Jun. 17, 2010 7:40 am
Here's BP by the numbers. Corporate felon BP agreed to pay $20 billion into an escrow account. They will build the fund over 3.5 years with the first payment of $3 billion in the third quarter, and $2 billion in the fourth quarter. Then BP will pay $1.25 billion each quarter until the $20 billion is met. The fund will pay only claims from damages related to the spill as well as reimbursements to state and local governments. It will be easy for BP to make its payments out of its $30 billion in cash flow this year and they intend to make $10 billion in divestments over the next year. According to a 2007 study published by Texas A&M University Press the four biggest industries in the Gulf are oil, tourism, fishing and shipping, and account for around $234 billion in economic activity each year, most of which is at risk of being wiped out and which, if my math is right, means over a trillion dollars, about 500 times more money than this little $250 billion "fund" that will be tax-deductible to BP. For example, Louisiana's seafood industry alone is worth $2 billion annually, and Florida's is over $10 billion. Yesterday, "Pavel Molchanov, an analyst at Raymond James, estimated the total legal cost, including criminal fines, at $62.9 billion." Moody's is projecting that the best case scenario following BP's oil disaster will "cost the Gulf region's five states more than 16,000 jobs and $1.15 billion from the area's gross domestic product." And that's assuming that the oil stops flowing immediately, which doesn't appear likely.

From the folks at butlersunsolutions.com comes a very simple but highly effective solution. Set up oil collection sites and give anyone who shows up with a barrel of oil $300/barrel. And $50 per 5 gallon bucket of tar balls to anyone scoops them off the beach.
It would be cheaper for BP and allow "small people" to make some big money. Every boat in the gulf would be out there and someone would find some way to do it efficiently. Even tho people are "small" they can be pretty smart when given an incentive.

Thom,
I believe it's not in our best interest for BP to go under right now, we need them to remain solvent so that they keep their commitment to repair the leak and to reimburse the coastal communities. Do you think that the President is attempting to keep BP close so that they do the best job possible, it might not be advised to piss them off right now. Just a thought.
Foodfascist • 12 years 33 weeks ago
So it might be a good idea to throw tar balls back to the other side based on caller Susan from Alaska who got 'nothing' from REAGAN/GEORGE BUSH SR as President.
Gene Savory • 12 years 33 weeks ago
@river61 re #1: BP has never been interested in doing the best job possible. Why should they change now? Here's a similie that I have in line for my next Tee Shirt:
Obama is like a ship at sea, with propellers pointed in alll directions and powered by engines that run on money. He wistfully peers toward desirable ports with a sigh.
WOW- what bastards, after 21 years in her home, then the mortage gets sold and Bank of America kicks her out of her home!?
Remember that BP was in charge of Alyeska, the "safety" contractor responsible for mitigation of oil spills in Prince William Sound. BP trained first responders, Chugach indians, then fired them. Their plan also called for equipment to be at the accident scene within five hours. The ship was more than 12 hours away in a dry dock.
The Exxon Valdez wasn't the only problem, the claimed safety system and lack of oversight was responsible. They still are.

BP America is a registered US Corporation, isn't it? How hard would it be for their parent FOREIGN Corporation to send it enough money this Fall, for the propaganda to win the election of those who would support BP America? Technically that would be illegal (in spite of the "Citizens United" decision), but how could any Prosecuter even FIND the paper-trail showing how the money transfers were converted to campaign contributions?
Caller to Alan Colmes claimed he was an advertizing exec of a firm that specialized in outdoor natural types of shots. said they have never seen this money before. Said the corporations are paying as much for Nov Election Day ads as Super Bowl Day ads.
The CEO sets the tone and the culture for the corporation.

Manage it Better
Large complicated problems, like the eruption at Deepwater Horizons, can often be reduced to a few declarative statements.
1. Plug the leak.
2. Find out how much is leaking.
3. Find out where all of the oil is.
4. Keep the oil off of the shore.
5. Clean the shore.
6. Save the wildlife.
7. Protect the people – workers and residents.
8. Compensate the people and business.
Make each of these a job. Give each job to a competent person that can get the job done, and communicate with the people. Get out of his or her way. Give each manager resources, authority, and exposure.
The person should be capable take charge kind of guy that can talk to the people. Lt. Col. Jack Jacobs comes to mind.
These tasks are pretty independent. In most cases the teams will not conflict with each other. Where there are overlaps, this could be easily managed.
The president is still on the hook, and is now on the hook for choosing the right people. He should be part of their communications, and occasionally have all of them together for status reports to the people.
These teams will absorb a lot of heat, and let people know exactly what happening.
One comment is that the President isn't emotional enough. Solve that by putting the Vice President in charge of coordinating the whole show.
One child dies of hunger every 6 seconds- what the hell is the guest thinking?
Sir Paul McCartney, when asked what fans could do upon the passing of his lovely wife, Linda said,"Become a Vegetarian." The City and County of SanFrancisco Board of Supervisor voted unanimously last week to encourage its citizens to reduce their carbon impact by decreasing their meat consumption consistent with the Meatless Monday Campaign. The campaign encourages persons, groups, and organizations worldwide to pledge to eat just vegetarian just one day a week, on a Monday. Dixie Mahy from the San Francisco Vegetarian Society led the way to passing the resolution reports Bob Linden, GoVeganRadio.com.

If BP can only afford to put in 1.25Billion a quarter, sounds like the government is going to have to nationalize the firm if it ever expects to get paid.
WOmanTIC • 12 years 32 weeks ago
New line for your tee-shirt:
On President's Obama's worst day, he can easily be like you! On your best day, you can never be like him. Try iT!
It seems to be that the language of this land is war, cuss people out, sue, hate on, and criticize incessantly. Now don't get it twisted: I am not saying that one should not have the freedom and latitude to express one's thoughts and ideas. I believe that the President can receive your criticism and not let that break his stride, however, what I do observe in my hearing and reading is that others have this narcissistic (immature) need for the President to "do/say" things in the same way you would. Were we not all assigned our own temperaments/personalities??? That's why he was elected! I see too many comments mimicking the one holding the microphone.
Oh how I looonnggng for an original thought! Whether you know it or not, REAL men restrain themselves in the face of adversity and the President has more testosterone in his hangnail than the likes of many who hide behind computers, microphones or call-in shows. The masses -- and many are immature -- stand with those holding the microphone! It would be refreshing if people would try to understand what other meant, moreover than what they said! I hope you're not held to the same standard you want to assign to the President! This country has seen a lot of unnecessary sadness and pain -- pain that was generally caused in whole part, perhaps, by people like you who think they need to use guns, a legal system OR some imaginary "masculinity" to sway the system to get their own way because to demonstrate constraint and diplomacy is too much work. Small-minded, fearful babies...whaaaa.... whaaaa.... whaaaaa..... I want my way AND I want it now!!!
I respect a man like President Obama who does not reduce himself to that caveman thinking!

Hey Thom first time listener-
I just heard you say the Earth is bleeding, something I've felt and thought of since the first announcement of the spill in the gulf. Finally, an erudite who can condemn the villains who are literally raping our land for profits and net gains.
I am sure you have read Hemingway's The Old Man and The Sea. He describes the ocean as a woman you have to respect and love, not abuse and neglect. I think you get it, as I wish some people would.
As a young person watching my parents generation destroy the Florida coast to which I call home, I can only sigh and wait for my turn to make a difference and call of all out all of the bigots in D.C. I dont think I will ever vote again.

I just saw you refer to the BP catastrophe, as the "worst ever." I trust you meant in the United States. As the New York Times recently reported, the Niger Delta has experienced their own "BP catastrophe" every year for decades. The point is this: when will ever realize that punching holes in anything is not good. I say to all those "drill baby drill" types to take a pen and punch a hole in their arm and see how great that is when the gusher is their blood.

Meeting of the Sovereign Council
The Picture Gallery of Canadian History Volume 1, p. 154
Meeting of the Sovereign Council by Charles Huot
Le Conseil souverain, tableau de Charles Huot L'ouverture du Conseil souverain en 1663 Sur le fauteuil, le gouverneur de la Nouvelle-France, Daniel de Rémy de Courcelles À sa droite, le vicaire apostolique de la Nouvelle-France, François de Montmorency-Laval À sa gauche, l'intendant de la Nouvelle-France, Jean Talon Et cinq conseillers
Credit: Library and Archives Canada, Acc. No. 1972-26-710
Charles Huot, the painter of the picture here reproduced, was born in Quebec in 1855, worked in Europe from 1874 until 1886, when he returned to Canada. He lived for several years at Sillery, where he died in 1930.
He is probably best known by his large mural decorations in the Legislative Building in Quebec. These consist of two large wall paintings, one in the Assembly Chamber, depicting the meeting of the First Legislature of Lower Canada in 1792, and the other in the Council Chamber, portraying the first sitting of the Sovereign Council of New France, while another painting of allegorical character decorates the ceiling of the Assembly Chamber. These are the most important works of their kind in the country, and represent the most ambitious project for the decoration of a public building which Canada has undertaken.
The painting of the Meeting of the Sovereign Council occupies a panel twelve feet high and thirty feet long, above the Speaker's Chair. It was the last work of the painter, who died before it was finished. Messrs. Charles Maillard and Ivan Neilson, of the Quebec School of Fine Arts, completed the picture. The details of architecture, costume and furnishings have been studied with care, and the picture is an accurate historical record as well as an admirable decoration.

Arrival of the Brides at Quebec
But there could be no permanent homes without wives, and unmarried women were scarce in Canada. So, in the next few years, several companies of marriageable young women were shipped by the king to find husbands in the colony.

Flaminio is a slice of modern Rome, just a 10-minute tram ride from one of the city's northern gates, Porta del Popolo. Architecture from almost every modern and contemporary era can be found here, from 1930s rationalist buildings to structures built for the 1960 Olympics that reflect that decade's urban-planning philosophy to 21st-century award-winning sites. Get your camera ready. Flaminio is the Rome you aren't used to, but the residents are. The area is family-oriented and art-focused.

I live on the edge of the Ghetto (also called the Jewish ghetto), a micro-neighborhood in the center of the centro storico along the east side of the river. It's one of the areas that gets a lot of traffic — local businesses and tourists — but somehow, the side streets are under the radar.
Best way to get around the city:
The best way to get anywhere in the historic center is by foot or bicycle, but it really helps to have a scooter — you can go anywhere fast. In a pinch and for longer distances, public transportation can take you to most places. Just have patience.
Don't leave without having:
A maritozzo (pastry), pasta cacio e pepe or carbonara, pizza romana and a sip of fresh water from any of the nasoni (public drinking fountains).
But the local favorite is really:
Puntarelle, porchetta and pizza bianca (separately or combined in a sandwich).
If I moved, I'd most miss:
Pizza bianca, proper carbonara, open-air markets and walking to everything. But I would never move.

A leftover from the 1920s, the Stadio dei Marmi is one of the prettiest tracks ever built, with low, marble stadium seats lined with statues of athletes posed in classical attire, surrounding a grass field and turf track. The entire Foro Italico complex is one of the best examples of Fascist-era architecture. A huge part of this complex is the 1960s Stadio Olimpico, host of the 1960 Olympics and stadium for Rome football teams AS Roma and SS Lazio.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has renewed his interest in signing Napoli's £56m-rated attacker Piotr Zielinski this summer, according to a report by TeamTalk.
Zielinski has been linked with a move to Liverpool ever since Jurgen Klopp first identified the attacking midfielder as a target when he took over the reigns at Anfield in October 2015.
The Reds reportedly held talks with Zielinski's camp, however, failed to agree a deal with Udinese which allowed Napoli to swoop in and sign the 31-cap Polish international in the summer of 2016.
Zielinski has gone on to develop in to one of the most highly-rated midfielders in Italian football with the 23-year-old scoring 7 goals to help Napoli compete with Juventus for the Serie A title this season.
It seems Liverpool have continued to keep a close eye on the player as TeamTalk are citing a report from the Mirror that claims Klopp is ready to renew his interest in signing Zielinski this summer.
Klopp is expected to be in the market for an attacking midfielder after failing to sign a replacement for Philippe Coutinho following his move to Barcelona during the January window.
A number of players have been linked with a move to Liverpool in recent months but Zielinski plays in similar positions to Coutinho and it looks like Klopp is ready to make a fresh attempt to take the Pole to Anfield.
However, Napoli aren't ready to let the midfielder leave on the cheap as TeamTalk suggest they've made it clear it will take an offer of around £56m to tempt them in to a deal.
It remains to be seen whether Liverpool will be prepared to meet that figure but I think Zielinski would be an excellent addition to their squad if Klopp decides to try and push through a move this summer.

Comic-book festival bows to pressure over all-male award shortlist
Angoulême says it will add female nominees after Daniel Clowes, Joann Sfar and Riad Sattouf pull out in protest

One of the world's biggest comic-book festivals has bowed to pressure to add women to its lifetime achievement award shortlist after a raft of major comics artists pulled out in protest at the all-male selection.
The Angoulême comics festival in France said it would add some women's names to its shortlist after protests over the perceived sexism.
Three of the world's biggest comic-book artists had pulled out of the running for a lifetime achievement award at the Angoulême comics festival in France in protest at the all-male shortlist.
Daniel Clowes, who was Oscar-nominated for the screenplay adaptation of his series Ghost World, joined the French graphic novelist Joann Sfar and the award-winning French-Syrian Riad Sattouf in demanding their names be removed after a campaigning collective called for a boycott. Another seven artists swiftly followed by announcing their withdrawal.
In a statement, the festival claimed that there had been few female artists in comic-book history but agreed to add some to its list.
Posy Simmonds's sketchbook
The absence of women from the 30-strong shortlist had sparked a row in France, which has a long tradition of comics, graphic novels, satirical cartoons and caricature, and boasts of the scale of the Angoulême gathering.
The grand prix is a lifetime achievement award at the festival, and the winner is named president of the following year's event. In Angoulême's 43-year history, just one woman – the French artist Florence Cestac – has won.
The few women nominated in the past include the French-Iranian Marjane Satrapi, creator of the acclaimed Persepolis series, and the British artist Posy Simmonds, who created Gemma Bovery and Tamara Drewe.
Before this year's event, which starts on 29 January, the high-profile Women in Comics Collective Against Sexism called for a boycott of the prize.
The collective complained of the "total negation" of the growing number of women in comic-book art. "It all comes back to the disastrous glass ceiling; we're tolerated, but never allowed top billing," they wrote.
Sattouf announced his withdrawal from the shortlist, writing on Facebook: "It turns out the list is make up only of men. That annoys me because there are lots of great women artists who deserve to be on it."
Clowes, who is American, also withdrew his name, saying in a statement: "I support the boycott of Angoulême and am withdrawing my name from any consideration for what is now a totally meaningless 'honour'. What a ridiculous, embarrassing debacle."
Sfar wrote: "I simply don't want to be part of a ceremony that is so disconnected from the current reality of comics art."
Several French government ministers tweeted their support of the boycott. Fleur Pellerin, the culture minister, said the lack of women shortlisted was abnormal and a little perturbing.
The row echoed the protests over the absence of female directors from the shortlist for the Palme d'Or prize at the Cannes film festival in 2012.

Questioned by Le Monde, Franck Bondoux, of the Angoulême festival, said: "The concept of the grand prix is to reward an author for their whole oeuvre. When you look at the prize list, you can see the artists on it have a certain maturity and a certain age. Unfortunately, there are few women in the history of comics art. It's a reality. If you go to the Louvre, you'll equally find very few women artists."
This explanation was rejected by commentators and female artists, who cited increasing numbers of acclaimed women in the industry.

Q: Check if today is somebody's birthday Context
I am trying to figure out if today is somebody's birthday. With the birthdate as the parameter.
1 Approach
Checking if the days since the birthdate are divisible by 365 without a rest. Obviously this would fail because of years with 366 days.
2 Approach
Comparing the day & month attributes of today & the birthday. This approach won't work for people born on the 29th of February. Basically, the problem is again the leap year.
Does anybody know an elegant & simple way to determine if the current date is a birthday?

A: If your birthday is Feb 29, what logic do intend to use to answer the question "is today your birthday on a non leap year?". That's a non obvious thing to answer. The best I can come up is to consider Feb 28 your birthday, unless this year is a leap year, in which case Feb 29 is your birthday.
With that you can simply ask for how many days are in February this year and then do some simple logic to pretend the birthday is actually the 28th in a non leap year.
// Psuedo code
var bday = someUser.bday
if (bday.month == 2 && bday.date == 29 && daysInFebruraryThisYear == 28) {
  bday.date = 28
}

// Is it today?
return bday.month == today.month && bday.date == today.date

A: Another solution is to convert the month/day date to the current calendar and compare from there:
let actualBirthDate = Date(year: 2000, month: 2, day: 29)
// Created 'currentDate' as a non-leap year for testing,
// but you would want to use 'Date()' here for your app
let currentDate = Date(year: 2001, month: 3, day: 1)

var birthDateComponents = Calendar.current.dateComponents([.year, .month, .day], from: actualBirthDate)
let currentDateComponents = Calendar.current.dateComponents([.year, .month, .day], from: currentDate)

// Plot the birthdate on this year's calendar.
// Feb.29 will convert to Mar.1 on a non-leap year.
birthDateComponents.year = currentDateComponents.year

if let birthday = Calendar.current.date(from: birthDateComponents) {

    var birthdayComponents = Calendar.current.dateComponents([.year, .month, .day], from: birthday)

    // Now if day and month match, we know it's your birthday
    if birthdayComponents.month == currentDateComponents.month && birthdayComponents.day == currentDateComponents.day {
        print("Happy birthday!")
    }
}

Modify currentDate to try out different years (or just set that to Date() when you're done). February 29 will convert to March 1 on non-leap years, but remain the same on leap years.
If you're wondering about that Date initializer I used, I just have a Date extension that looks like this:
extension Date {

    init(year: Int? = nil, month: Int? = nil, day: Int? = nil, hour: Int? = nil, minute: Int? = nil, second: Int? = nil, millisecond: Int? = nil, timeZone: TimeZone? = nil) {

        let now = Date()
        var dateComponents = Calendar.current.dateComponents([.year, .month, .day, .hour, .minute, .second, .nanosecond], from: now)
        dateComponents.year = year
        dateComponents.month = month
        dateComponents.day = day
        dateComponents.hour = hour
        dateComponents.minute = minute
        dateComponents.second = second
        dateComponents.nanosecond = 1000000 * (millisecond ?? 0)

        if let timeZone = timeZone {
            dateComponents.timeZone = timeZone
        }

        guard let date = Calendar.current.date(from: dateComponents) else {
            fatalError("Failed to construct date")
        }

        self.init(timeInterval: 0, since: date)
    }
}
