3 Riad al-Solh Protesters Hurt in Evening Scuffles with Riot Police
by Naharnet Newsdesk 19 November 2019, 22:22
Three protesters were injured and several were arrested in scuffles with riot police Tuesday evening at Beirut's Riad al-Solh Square, the National News Agency said.
NNA said the skirmishes broke out after some protesters tried to cross the barbed wire and enter into Nejmeh Square where parliament building is located.
The protesters also "hurled water bottles at security forces," the agency added.
Live TV footage meanwhile showed a standoff among protesters themselves, with some hurling insults and a number of protesters chasing a young man who was carrying a baton.

Riot police... LoL something they are not. They are exactly like the Hong Kong police, working for the regime.... not for the citizens. The police and military leadership is on the politicians' payroll and they are thieves themselves. I know this first hand because I've witnessed it.

A whole battery of bombs was threatening foreign embassies in Greek capital on Monday and Tuesday.
In the latest development, two small mail bombs exploded outside the Russian and Swiss embassies in Athens. Nobody was hurt and no damage was inflicted.
The mail attacks on embassies began on Monday, when a package sent to the Mexican embassy exploded in the hands of a courier. He was slightly injured in the incident.
Later on Monday, police managed to intercept three more explosive packages directed to the embassies of Belgium, the Netherlands and personally to Nicolas Sarkozy. On Tuesday, authorities closed down sections of the capital and checked dozens of potential targets. All embassies have been given additional police security.
So far no group has claimed responsibility for the attacks. Reports indicate that Greek police have detained two people who were allegedly involved in organizing the recent attacks on embassies. One of them is reportedly a member of a local radical group.
In June, 2010, a mail package detonated in the premises of the Ministry of Public Order in Athens and killed an aide to the minister, Michalis Chrysohoidis, who was allegedly the target.

Thanks to breakthroughs in treatment, the Pancoast tumor survival rate has been steadily improving over the last several years. What was once considered an incurable cancer is now viewed as a treatable condition – especially when it is diagnosed in the earlier stages of its progression.
The survival rate does drop for patients with inoperable, late-stage tumors that have invaded the lymph nodes. However, studies have found that metastatic spread to the subclavian vessels (arteries behind the clavicle) or the intervertebral foramen (small channels in the spine) does not necessarily have a negative impact on a patient's prognosis. At Moffitt Cancer Center, we understand the value of survival rates, but we also see our patients as more than just statistics. When someone turns to us for treatment, we'll determine which options offer the best potential chances of survival and improved quality of life – regardless of the stage of the cancer. Our oncologists specializing in lung cancer have extensive experience treating patients with a Pancoast tumor, and we have a survival rate well above the national averages. For more information about Pancoast tumors, or to make an appointment with one of our oncologists specializing in lung cancer, call 1-888-663-3488 or complete our new patient registration form. We welcome new patients and do not require a referral.

In this Act-On Podcast Extra, Ryan Porter and Janelle Johnson share their marketing and sales predictions for 2015. This was first published on December 17, 2014. See how close or far off they were from being right.


In the framework of some research and development work of the Federal German State of Thuringia and the Bauhaus-University Weimar, I worked on the implementation of a pilot composting plant in the capital of Cambodia. My activities, in the sector of waste management in Phnom Penh (November 2000 to Mai 2001) left within me very intense impressions, which have had a lasting effect to the present day. To a large extent the people on the municipal landfill in Stung Mean Chey are responsible, for they touched me deeply with their humble and friendly being.
After a long and traumatic civil war Cambodia is struggling hard with a broad variety of problems, which demand an urgent solution. Though the modest growth of economy nourishes hope for an improvement, only a very small portion of the society profits from this development. For a larger portion of Cambodia's society, no possibility appears to open up to escape the vicious circle of poverty, lack of education and lack of income generation.
The capital and biggest city in the country, Phnom Penh is not prepared to face the pressure on its inefficient and inappropriate infrastructure, which is caused by the constant influx of the rural population. One major problem is the rapidly increasing waste production, which cannot always be mastered by the inefficient waste management system. Waste accumulates on street corners and on open spaces or is quickly disposed of in the municipal sewage canals. For some people, who complain about high waste fees in Europe, these seem to be heavenly circumstances. In reality this carelessly disposed waste is nourishment for vermin and promotes the distribution of infectious diseases and is responsible for a broad spectrum of additional burdens for the population and for the environment.
For one group among the poorest part of the urban population this problematic waste serves as basis for their daily survival. They are called scavengers or wastepickers (1).
The wastepickers search through disposed waste for recyclable valuable material and usable items in order to sell them to depots around the city. These humans trudge each day in the muggy tropical heat in very difficult circumstances. The humid smell of rotting garbage on the landfill and the millions of flies are overwhelming to any visitor who walks over the dumpsite for the first time. The working conditions on the dump are not only not fit for human beings, but are extremely unhealthy and dangerous. Billows of toxic smoke roll over the garbage pile. The dump is burning openly in many spots and the intensive fumes get caught in clothes and make the eyes fill with tears. It is not a nice place for work and even less to live, but that is exactly what it is for the wastepickers: their place for living and working, the place where their kids are born, old people die, where suffering and extreme poverty is reality and routine. But it is also a place, where people are laughing, kids are playing and boys and girls fight with each other and fall in love with each other but it takes a while until one can recognize the simple human reality in this unbeautiful scenery. In my case it took quite a while until I could grasp that.
Quite frankly, the first time I entered the garbage dump of Phnom Penh I was deeply shocked. The poverty of the people was repulsive to me. I was afraid that I might soil myself or be sick. I therefore avoided any physical contact with the people there. Fortunately I was forced professionally and humanly to become engaged with the wastepickers and so it came to be that I eventually had wonderful encounters, especially with the kids on the site, which I would now regret to miss.
I hope that I can repay them a small part, as a "Thank You" for what they taught me, even if it is only in the telling of their stories.
(1) The word "scavenger" derives from "to scavenge" and is usually used in connection with animals eating carrion. For this reason I refuse to use the word "scavenger" in a semantic connection with humans. Nevertheless this notation is (unfortunately) frequently used in scientific publications for "wastepickers" or "garbage collectors". Subsequently I will only talk about "wastepickers", because this notation describes the activities of these humans in the most felicitious way without limiting the general understanding of the topic.

Lord's Prayer Language
Posted on May 30, 2013 by Mike Farley
Starting in June, 2013, the language of the Lord's Prayer used in the 11:15 service will be updated to modern English found in the best modern Bible translations. Compared to the earlier morning services, one distinctive of the 11:15 service is the use of more modern forms of expression in language and musical styles, and this change is consistent with that philosophy.
Below are the older and newer translations of the Lord's Prayer with the key differences highlighted in bold:
Our Father, who art in heaven, Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be thy name. hallowed be your name.
Thy kingdom come, Your kingdom come,
thy will be done, your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven. on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread, Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our debts and forgive us our debts
as we forgive our debtors. as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. but deliver us from the evil one.
For thine is the kingdom, For yours is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory forever. and the power, and the glory forever.
There are two types of change in the newer translation: (1) replacing older English pronouns with the forms used in modern English, and (2) replacing the word "evil" with "the evil one." Let's explore the reasons for these changes in translation.
1. Why get rid of "art" and change the pronouns from "thy" and "thine" to "your" and "yours"?
(1) Following the Bible by praying in our own language.
The older English translation comes from the King James translation of the Bible, which was completed in 1611. The second-person pronoun forms "thy" and "thine" and the third-person verb form "art" reflect patterns of written and spoken English that were familiar in the early seventeenth century. The enormous cultural influence of the King James translation affected the language of prayer in Christian worship for centuries. Up through the mid-twentieth century, it was routine for English-speaking Christians to use old English pronouns "thee" and "thou" in both written, corporate prayers and also in personal, private prayer.
However, almost all English-speaking Christian churches (including Central Presbyterian Church) now use one or more of the numerous English Bible translations produced in the past fifty years for at least a couple of reasons. First, modern translators work from manuscripts of the Bible in its original Hebrew and Greek languages that are older, more numerous, and often more accurate than those employed by the authors of the King James translation. Second, by using modern English the recent English translations better accomplish the intended purpose of the Bible to communicate God's revelation in the language of its hearers and readers.
Because we now employ Bible translations in modern English in scripture readings, in sermons, and in every other form of spoken prayer in our worship services, praying the Lord's Prayer in modern English brings greater consistency to our style of expression in corporate worship. When God revealed himself to ancient peoples in Hebrew and Greek, he used forms of language that those peoples spoke and understood in their own day. Thus, praying to God in modern English is a way for modern English speakers to translate and use biblical prayers in a manner consistent with the original purpose and function of God's use of those languages in scripture.
Furthermore, there are no grounds in biblical language to use special pronouns to refer to God. In the original Hebrew and Greek texts of the Bible, the pronouns for God are simply the same pronoun forms used for any other subject. Thus, it is not necessary to say "thy" and "thine" in order to be faithful to the Bible or to show reverence for God. The biblical authors inspired by God did not use any special pronouns to refer to God that were distinct from those used in ordinary language about other topics.
Since there is no sound biblical reason to translate the prayer in this way, the only reason for maintaining the practice is the inertia of tradition. This is a highly ironic rationale for Presbyterians to adopt since translating the Bible into vernacular languages was one of the most important principles of the Reformation heritage of the Presbyterian tradition. It was the medieval Catholic Church that insisted on preserving an archaic language (Latin) no longer spoken by ordinary people for no biblical reason, while the Reformers maintained that the Bible should be translated, taught, and prayed in the language of the people who received it. Praying the Lord's Prayer in modern English is not only more consistent with the form and purpose of biblical language, it is also more faithful to the liturgical heritage of the Reformed tradition.
One potential objection related to this line of reasoning is the presence of the archaic language in many hymns that we still sing frequently in corporate worship. Why should we abandon old English in the Lord's Prayer if we sing old English regularly in some hymns?
There are two important distinctions between extra-biblical Christian hymns and the biblical text of the Lord's Prayer that justify the continued use of archaic English in some songs. First, archaic language is sometimes necessary to preserve the literary structure of a hymn. For example, attempting to update the language merely by replacing "thee" with "you" would violate the literary structure of some hymns in which the word "thee" occurs in parallel with other words that end in the same sound in order to maintain a rhyme scheme. Since the Lord's Prayer is not a poem of this sort, these literary factors are not relevant to the use of "thy" and "thine" in the Lord's Prayer.
Second, archaic English language in older hymns signals the historical time and setting of the original composition of the text. Our singing the archaic English language in these old hymns therefore preserves the authentic form of the original composition and reminds us that we worship in union with many generations of Christians who have lived before us in many different periods and places in history. The original language of the Lord's Prayer, on the other hand, was not English but rather the form of ancient Greek spoken during Jesus' earthly ministry in first-century Palestine. Praying the Lord's Prayer in seventeenth-century English has nothing to do with the authentic form or historical setting of the original text; rather, it only preserves one particular English translation of the prayer.
(2) Ease of understanding in teaching and learning Christian worship
This consistency of modern English expression can help those who are young and/or new to the Christian faith and to the use of the Lord's Prayer in corporate worship. Modern language is easier to understand than archaic forms of English, and using archaic English introduces unnecessary and potentially confusing inconsistency into the church's practice of spoken prayer. Thus, praying the Lord's Prayer in modern English eliminates unnecessary obstacles for those who are beginning to learn the Christian faith and our traditions of worship.
From a missional perspective, the preservation of archaic language is a practice that few would defend in other cultural contexts. Would anyone at Central defend teaching Mexican Christians to pray the Lord's Prayer in the Spanish of 17th-century Spain? Or French-speaking Christians in Ivory Coast to pray the Lord's Prayer in the language of 17th-century France? If not, then why should Christians in the United States continue to pray the Lord's Prayer in the language of 17th-century England?
2. Why change "evil" to "the evil one"?
This phrase occurs in the form of the Lord's Prayer recorded in Matthew 6:13. In the original Greek language of the book of Matthew, the use of the adjective "evil" (poneros) with a definite article ("the") always refers to a personal being: "the evil one" (Matt 5:37; 5:39; 13:19; 13:38; 13:49). Other New Testament books follow the same pattern: poneros with a definite article in a prepositional phrase refers to personal beings (John 17:15; Ephesians 6:16; 1 John 2:13–14; 3:12; 5:18–19). In the context of Matt 6:13 and 13:38, the reference is to Satan, and this interpretation of the Lord's Prayer fits quite naturally within the flow of Matthew's narrative in which Jesus successfully resists the temptations of the evil one (Matthew 4) just prior to Jesus' instruction on prayer and other topics (Matthew 5-7).
Many biblical scholars recognize this pattern in the language of the New Testament authors. In fact, the three earliest Christian treatises on the Lord's Prayer by Origen, Tertullian, and Cyprian (all third-century writers) all interpret Matthew 6:13 as a reference to "the evil one." (For an English translation, see Alistair Stewart-Sykes, ed. and trans., Tertullian, Cyprian, and Origen on the Lord's Prayer [Crestwood, NY: St. Vladimir's Seminary Press, 2004].) Modern biblical translators and commentators also render the phrase this way. See, for example, the footnote in the English Standard Version (ESV) that suggests "the evil one" as a translation.
The practical effect of this change is that we remember the reality of spiritual warfare. Jesus and the New Testament writers routinely warn us that Satan and his demonic allies attack us. The Lord also assures us that he is able to protect and deliver us by enabling us to resist and stand firm in the truth and strength he supplies (Ephesians 6:10-20; James 4:7; 1 Peter 5:8-11). By praying "deliver us from the evil one," Jesus teaches us to seek God's strength continually to resist the personal attack of the particular evil embodied in this adversary who seeks our destruction.

Sewage Spills Add to Florida Misery
(AP) -- As if loss of air conditioning and refrigeration weren't bad enough, widespread power outages in hurricane-battered Florida are teaming with structural failures to cause another headache: sewage overflows.
Local governments have submitted well over 100 "notices of pollution" to the state Department of Environmental Protection since Hurricane Irma struck, some involving multiple spills and releases of millions of gallons of wastewater in various stages of treatment. Officials in many cities were still scrambling Thursday to determine how much sewage had escaped, while the state warned people to steer clear of standing water.
"Floodwaters may contain not only bacteria from sanitary sewer overflows but other potential contaminants from agricultural or industrial waste," environmental protection department spokeswoman Dee Ann Miller said.
About 6 million gallons of wastewater was released from a plant on Virginia Key near Miami during a seven-hour power outage overnight Sunday that disabled its pumps — one of seven spills reported by the Miami-Dade County Water and Sewer Department. The water had gone through most of the treatment process but hadn't been chlorinated, spokeswoman Jennifer Messemer-Skold said.
Officials advised people not to swim at Miami-area beaches until waters could be tested for a variety of pollutants.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency deployed teams to help state officials assess damage to wastewater and drinking water systems.
Wastewater treatment is challenging enough in a state with flat, low-lying terrain and a booming population concentrated largely in coastal cities. Pipes and other infrastructure are aging, a common problem across the U.S., and many residents use private septic tanks that are susceptible to flooding. A consultant's report commissioned by the state found that leaks and overflows resulting from hurricanes Hermine and Matthew in 2016 totaled about 250 million gallons.
Electricity interruptions during heavy storms often deliver the knockout punch to already vulnerable systems. They shut down "lift stations" pumping wastewater from lower to higher elevations on its way to treatment plants, causing backups that can propel untreated sewage into homes or through manhole covers onto city streets. Some lift stations are equipped with emergency generators, while others are idled unless officials can get portable generators to them.
St. Petersburg has permanent generators at 22 of its more than 80 lift stations, said Bill Logan, spokesman for the public works department. Workers hauled devices to as many other locations as they could, but the storm's fury slowed them down.
As of Wednesday, the Gulf Coast city of about 250,000 had reported four spills. The largest, totaling about 430,000 gallons of partially treated wastewater, overflowed from a treatment plant holding tank Monday, while the others were at manholes.
Other systems reported bigger spills — including 1.1 million gallons of raw and treated sewage from the city of Oviedo and 1.5 million gallons of effluent from a facility in Osceola County.
Some said it was too early to tell how bad the problem was.
JEA, a regional utility that covers Jacksonville and other areas of northeastern Florida, listed about 40 overflows and releases, some of which poured wastewater into rivers, creeks and ponds. Their combined listed volume exceeded 1.9 million gallons, but amounts were unknown in some cases.
Polk County Utilities reported that "an undetermined amount of raw wastewater discharged onto the ground" and backed up into three homes after a lift station lost power in Lakeland.
More than 125 systems in about 40 Florida counties advised residents to boil tap water before using it for drinking or cooking.
A number of Florida cities have reached settlements with state or federal agencies that require significant upgrades of their treatment systems because of repeated sewage spills. Miami-Dade pledged $1.6 billion in improvements over 15 years under a deal with the EPA in 2014. An agreement with the state completed in July requires St. Petersburg to spend more than $300 million.
Many of those overflows have resulted from decay of pipes, pump stations and other infrastructure.
The EPA, which can impose fines for spills that violate the Clean Water Act, said permits issued under the law allow release of contaminated storm water in extraordinary situations.
"Hurricane Irma has produced circumstances beyond the reasonable control" of some treatment plant operators, regional EPA chief Trey Glenn said Wednesday in a letter to Noah Valenstein, secretary of the Florida environmental department. "The EPA recognizes the importance of keeping these facilities operating and where necessary getting the facilities back on line as quickly as possible and will support our partners in this effort."
EPA officials did not immediately respond to e-mailed questions seeking further details about how the agency will address the overflows.
Temporary relaxation of anti-pollution requirements is standard procedure during weather emergencies, said Joan Leary Matthews, an attorney with the Natural Resources Defense Council who granted such waivers as head of EPA's clean water division in its Northeast regional office during Superstorm Sandy.
But environmental groups said they would keep up pressure for drastic improvements of wastewater treatment across the state.
"We still have a leaky system," said Justin Bloom, executive director of Suncoast Waterkeeper, which sued St. Petersburg and Gulfport last year over repeated sewage discharges. "If we eventually get that huge storm surge and dramatic rainfall we feared, it's a recipe for calamity."

Neuronal inputs to hippocampal formation in Alzheimer's disease and in parkinsonism-dementia complex on Guam
S. Goto, A. Hirano
This study concerns the expression of synaptophysin in the hippocampal formation of normal controls, of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and of patients with parkinsonism-dementia complex on Guam (P-D complex). A monoclonal antibody was used to visualize synaptophysin, an integral component of presynaptic vesicle membranes. In the normal controls, a strong synaptophysin immunoreactivity was seen in the stratum pyramidale, stratum radiatum and stratum lacunosum-moleculare of the hippocampus proper, in the subiculum and in the molecular layer of the dentate gyrus. In the dentate gyrus molecular layer, the reaction product was distributed in a laminar fashion. By contrast, in AD and in P-D complex a significant decrease in immunoreactivity was observed in all hippocampal strata, and especially of the hippocampal subfield CA1 and the subiculum. In both diseases, synaptophysin expression was also diminished in the molecular layer of the dentate gyrus of all patients examined, with the inner portion exhibiting almost normal and the outer portion a strikingly reduced synaptophysin immunoreactivity.

In striking contrast to Macquarie Island , Campbell Island is thought to have been formed, for the most part, by a shield volcano whose periodic eruptions covered about two-thirds of the surface. On the west coast, there are thick layers of ash with pyroclastic inclusions. Numerous basaltic dykes intrude into sedimentary rock. The west coast has high cliffs with numerous caves and arches formed by marine erosion. The effects of glaciation can be seen on the east side of the island.

Shootings Are Latest Reminders of Washington's Gridlock on Guns
WASHINGTON — The back-to-back mass shootings in California have as soon as once more underscored a political actuality on Capitol Hill: Even after a pair of massacres which have shaken the nation, Congress is unlikely to muster a bipartisan consensus to enact any further gun management measures.
At the Capitol on Tuesday, as main Democrats joined President Biden's name for motion, Republicans — together with Speaker Kevin McCarthy, whose state was the scene of the most recent gun rampages — remained silent. The divergent reactions mirrored the gulf between the 2 events on the difficulty, even after they got here collectively final yr to push by means of the primary main gun management laws in many years.
Negotiators regarded that modest measure, which was geared toward retaining firearms out of the arms of harmful individuals, because the furthest they might go in forging a bipartisan compromise on the difficulty. Now that it's legislation, the prospect of enacting different, extra aggressive steps like reinstating a ban on assault weapons seems all however unimaginable.
"It's clear that the prevalence of guns in our country has made tragedies like this one too frequent," Senator Chuck Schumer, Democrat of New York and the bulk chief, mentioned on Monday, reacting to the capturing over the weekend in Monterey Park, Calif., the place 11 individuals have been killed in what police referred to as the deadliest mass capturing in Los Angeles County's historical past. "While the Senate passed bipartisan gun safety legislation last year, and that was very welcome move, more should be done."
Just hours after Mr. Schumer spoke on the Senate ground, a gunman killed seven individuals in two places in Half Moon Bay, Calif.
"No other nation fetishizes violence and guns like we do," Senator Chris Murphy, Democrat of Connecticut, mentioned on Twitter. "No other nation cares so little about who owns the machinery of mass slaughter."
Mr. Biden mentioned on Tuesday afternoon that he was sending Vice President Kamala Harris to California and once more voiced his help for an assault rifle ban.
"Our hearts are with the people of California," the president advised reporters as he hosted Democratic congressional leaders on the White House. "The vice president's going to be going out. I've been talking with Gavin Newsom and Judy Chu and Anna Eshoo and Hilda Solis, and we're working out a number of things that we can and are going to be doing."
He cited laws launched by Senator Dianne Feinstein, Democrat of California, to reimpose the assault rifle ban, which expired practically 20 years in the past.
"I am asking you all to send that to my desk as quickly as you can," Mr. Biden mentioned, despite the fact that he knew the probabilities of it passing a Republican House have been slight.
Democrats have conceded that they don't have the 60 votes needed to beat a Republican filibuster and go a brand new ban. Even in the event that they did, there may be little probability that Mr. McCarthy would deliver up such a measure for a vote within the House, the place Republicans adamantly oppose an assault weapons ban or any measure seen as infringing on gun rights.
Last yr, when Democrats nonetheless managed each chambers in Congress, Mr. McCarthy whipped his members to vote towards the bipartisan laws that went on to turn out to be legislation in June, which enhanced background checks for potential gun patrons ages 18 to 21. It additionally supplied incentives for states to go "red flag" legal guidelines that permit weapons to be quickly confiscated from individuals deemed, by a decide, too harmful to own them.
By passing that invoice, the Senate shattered practically three many years of congressional paralysis on toughening the nation's gun legal guidelines.
Even then, the laws was not seen as a harbinger of a brand new period of bipartisan compromise on an intractable situation , however relatively a quick second of bipartisanship that may be troublesome to duplicate. Most Republicans opposed the invoice, and nearly all of those that backed it weren't up for re-election.
Those who did have been branded as "RINOs," or Republicans in Name Only, by former President Donald J. Trump, who's working for re-election, and by a few of the extra excessive members of the House Republican Conference, which now holds the bulk.

Free Solo: One Man's Quest for the Ultimate Abs
Rex Dangerman, Sports and Fitness Editor, New York Extreme Men's Fitness Magazine
Homeboy breaking the first rule of free soloing: Don't look down, bruh! Dude's a rebel.
We see a lot of bullshit movies here at New York Extreme Men's Fitness Magazine—namby-pamby shit passing itself off as core adventure filmmaking, things like Vertical Limit and Meet the Deedles where it's more CGI than real-world stunts and where the AQ (Adventure Quotient, if you haven't read my column before) is so low even Tom Cruise couldn't limbo under it...without his platform shoes. So when a screener for the new rock-handing movie Free Solo came in, I almost tossed it on the scrapheap and headed to the gym to flip truck tires like the swole extras in 300. Then I saw the cover—this crazy kid from California, Alex Honnold, was free-clamping without a safety rope up the front face of El Capitan, a granite mountain in Yellowstone even steeper than Mount Everest! CGI or not, this was a movie I had to check out.
The Box and the smoothie bar would have to wait until later, because once I popped this bad boy in my DVD player I was riveted.
For the uninitiated, "free soloing" is a form of solo lead climbing done with only hook-and-toehold installations; the rope might or might not be there to catch you in a fall (it's your call, brutha—not sure who makes up the rules). You're not allowed to use pitons in crevasses or pound construction bolts into holds, but if a mountaineer came before you and put them in the rock you can stand on them or even use them to repel back to a ledge and rest before the next "pitch," which is usually 1,000 feet long. Honnold practices his own type of "extreme free climbing" that doesn't use the rope, ever, which is what we learn over the course of the film as he prepares for the ultimate wall, Free Riding, the world's toughest mountain. Some 3,000 feet long and without a single handhold or foothold, Free Riding has killed 90 percent of the people who try it—even its first ascentionist, Warren Harding, eventually died after the climb.
We learn a lot about Alex Honnold from the film's backstory. He dropped out of college (boss move, bro) to attend the school of life, via climbing. And for some reason, he's homeless despite being a paid, professional rock climber (bro, I doubt "Macho Man" Randy Savage ever had to live in an automobile). So Honnold lives in his van like some tragic uncle and drives around to "craggs" with his girlfriend to train for his ultimate climb, using "sports climbs" and a "Chin-Up Wand" mounted on his van to make his hands swell enough that they'll fit inside the "Monster Crack" without slipping out of the "Crux Move."
This was a real window onto the climbing scene for me—you hear so much about community and climbers helping other climbers out, but then when the chips are down nobody will even take Honnold in and feed him a hamburger and give him a bath—and let me tell you, he's one skinny little ragamuffin! Maybe they're worried he'll "free solo" their house while he's sleepwalking and fall out a window LOL; maybe it's just too painful to get close to someone who doesn't use clampons and grab-links to catch his falls. Regardless, as we learn from his mother, girlfriend, and friends, they do worry about all his epic pebble MMA, but again, if any one of them were to volunteer to come out and put a tight brake on his long line instead of sitting around worrying that he's too xtreme, I bet he'd be one hell of a lot safer.
In the end, Honnold is able to pull off his free solo with only a couple falls, one on the "Bolter Problem" and the other in the "Urine Corner." We can't help but recoil in horror as he catches himself both times by just his pinky finger, then winks at the camera and says, "Hellz yeah." Here, I imagine, is where all that training paid off—only the elite few can do single-pinky pull-ups, and looking on YouTube they mostly seem to be shirtless and Scandinavian. It probably also helps that he's wearing a highly adhesive Sportsman's Outfit with secret prototype shorts, has some sort of modified ballet shoes with "spider grip," and uses a small sack of powdered soap to clean his hands between cling-hangs.
But really, I think what lets Honnold adhere to the mountain is a strong core. I know I tend to go on and on about this in my column, but if you watch the footage, you'll see what I mean—the core is everything, and I and Honnold are here to preach. Every time he's about to slip from a crevasse, he does a Plank (woot-woot), catches his breath, pops a 5-Hour Energy, and re-grips to an underhang. In one spot, on a horizontal crack called "the Salathé," Honnold even does an inverted Batman, then proceeds to do 100 upside-down sit-ups while playing a double-necked flame-shooting electric guitar that he must have stashed up there. (At least, I think that's what happened; could be I'm getting Free Solo and Mad Max: Fury Road mixed up. Maybe I need to stop butt-chugging creatine and Monster Energy drinks for breakfast….) In the end, it's his core that really conquers the mountain. The only bummer for me is that we don't get to see enough of homeboy with his shirt off. Call me a voyeur, but I'd love to get a longer gander at the Abs That Conquered El Captain. I guarantee Honnold is rocking a mean 8-pack. Guess you gotta save something for the sequel. Still, maybe next time, bro, just stay home and do crunches and burpees. Take it from me, Rex Dangerman—there are much safer ways to get diesel.

Sprinting on the train platform
I take the train to work every morning. Jurong East MRT station is one of the more crowded stations during peak rush hour. But why do people always sprint from one platform to another as if their life depended on it?
These are some of the behaviours that I find most annoying. I mean, the next train comes barely 2 minutes later and still, there are people running from one platform to another as their transfer trains as if their life depended on it. Chill guys!
There also another inconsiderate behaviour that I found particularly irritating. That is, leaning on grab poles. Here you are in a packed train, everyone standing on whatever space there is left between them and other people. The last thing you want is for somebody to have their backs to the grab poles, leaning against it and not allowing standing passengers to grab onto something when the train lurches forward. The lack of common sense, and common courtesy is seriously lacking in some people who uses the trains. Is standing straight and decent that difficult while on the train? Are your spines that special or fragile that you need something to lean against. It particularly dangerous too especially to older passengers who need more support while standing. Not letting them hold on to the grab poles is just sad to see.
Singapore's train infrastructure is up to its breaking point. Morning and evening rush hour are the worst time to travel by the train. All these is because of the lack of foresight to increase train capacity at a period when there is a huge population influx.

May 9 - Victory Day...
May 9 - Victory Day
May 9, Victory Day - a fine and at the same time very sad holiday devoted to the day when in 1945 the Soviet Union was saved, however millions of people didn't return from the war to their families …
According to historical data, a confidence in victory already existed in April, 1945 when the Red army closely approached Berlin turned by the Germans into a very powerful fortress ready to tough fight.
However, during the Berlin strategic offensive operation the Red Army at the expense of thousand lives and main efforts of the 1st Belarusian and 1st Ukrainian fronts occupied the capital of Germany, and victoriously finished the Great Patriotic War and World War II.
On May 7, 1945 at 2:41 am in Reims, the act of unconditional surrender of Germany was signed.
In this historical event the following people played a big role: a general Jodl on behalf of allied forwarding forces, a Soviet general Ivan Susloparov and a general of the French army François Sevez as an important witness of the peace pact signing.
On May 8, 1945 at 10:43 pm by the Central European time (on May 9 at 12:43 pm by Moscow time) the German Field Marshall General Wilhelm Keitel and the representative of Luftwaffe Colonel General Stumpff, and also admiral of Kriegsmarine Friedeburg resigned the Act of unconditional surrender of Germany which came into force on May 9 at 00:00 by Moscow time.
These documents testified the end of 6 years of war which concussed almost the whole world, and its integral part - the 4-year Great Patriotic War. The war strongly affected the USSR which was not only destroyed more than other countries, but also suffered huge human losses - in general, according to the experts, 26,6 million people while in Germany the lost was 6 times fewer.
In Kazakhstan, as well as in other CIS countries, people will always remember their heroes, and will eulogize bravery of their sons on this holiday as well as every day in open spaces of the peace and independent state.

Mariachis serenade Trump on election night with Trump Tower performance
Title: Mariachis serenade Trump on election night with Trump Tower performance
Date: 9th November 2016
Summary: (SOUNDBITE) (Spanish) MARIACHI MUSICIAN FROM MEXICO, MARIELA NAVARRO, SAYING: "(We performed) to have a good time because this election has been very sad and it has had a big impact on all of us and so this is an opportunity to experience some happiness now that the election is coming to an end."

Keywords: Mariachis Mariachi band Mexico Trump Tower New York U.S. presidential election candidate Donald Trump Hillary Clinton
City: NEW YORK, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES
Reuters ID: LVA00257Q16BR
Story Text: A group of mariachis from Mexico serenaded U.S. Republican Nominee Donald Trump on Tuesday night (November 8) with a performance outside his Trump Tower headquarters in Manhattan as the U.S. election enters its final hours.
Wearing traditional mariachi costumes, the musicians performed classic Mexican folk songs with Trump's headquarters towering above them.
"(We performed) to have a good time because this election has been very sad and it has had a big impact on all of us and so this is an opportunity to experience some happiness now that the election is coming to an end," said Mariela Navarro, a Mariachi musician from Mexico.
"We are supporting Hillary because we don't think it's right that there is so much racism and especially not in public like from Mr. Trump and so we are supporter her," added Jesus Alvarez, a Mariachi from Mexico.
Trump's campaign has been one of the most unpopular in living memory in Mexico, ranging from stinging verbal attacks on its migrants, threats against its trade agreements, to his repeated vows to seal off the country behind a huge border wall that he insists Mexico will pay for.
Trump and his rival Democrat Hillary Clinton waged a close battle in several crucial battleground states on Tuesday in their bitter race for the White House, although opinion polls gave Clinton an edge in the closing hours of the campaign.
With voting completed in more than half of the 50 U.S. states, the race was too close to call in Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire and Virginia, states that could be vital to deciding which contender wins the presidency.
Both candidates scored early victories in states where they were expected to win. Trump captured conservative states in the South and Midwest, while Clinton swept several states on the East Coast and Illinois in the Midwest.
Those victories were long predicted and not especially significant in the national race, which is likely to turn on a half-dozen toss-up states that will be crucial in the state-by-state fight for 270 Electoral College votes needed to win.
Trump, who has never previously held political office, pledged to shake up the Washington establishment but also alienated many people, including in his own party, with a campaign heavy on personal insults and unorthodox positions such as a proposal to build a wall along the Mexican border to keep out illegal immigrants.


I'm pretty sure Mary Weber just likes to toy with my emotions. I always come out of her books with the all these FEELS. And also, she is the sweetest person on Twitter ever because she's very nice to me as I flail in my feels to a million tweets directed at her as soon as I put down the book.
Siren's Fury picks up right where Storm Siren left off -- so you're immediately wrapped back up into the emotion you felt at the end of the last book. From there it hits the ground running, because Nym has a BIG problem that she is trying to fix so of course she is going to go barreling into trying to fix it. The book is aptly titled, as a lot of what Nym feels in this part of the story is fury, anger, rage. The whole idea of not letting your emotions control you is taken to a whole different level when you have supernatural powers. There were times when she was so blinded by it that I was screaming at the book, "Nym!! NO!!" But then I always got to cheer when she came back to herself.
Nym has changed from the first book because now she has not just had owners and masters; she has had friends and she still does. This changes her motivations for action in a good way. There seemed to maybe be a few too many moments of, "He got away again?!?!" to the point where it was a little frustrating. Myles is a perfect shady character because I just feel creepy and slimy every time I read about it. And I really liked Rasha's unfailing support of Nym.
While not as much of a cliffhanger as the ending of Storm Siren, Mary did still leave us with some quite intense loose ends. However, while at the end of the first book it was like, "Everything hurts and how is she going to make this good again???" I left this book more optimistically -- I believe she can make it good again and I'm looking forward to seeing how she is going to do it.


This common garden herb is used for both its seed and its fragrant leaf. Everyone is familiar with the dill pickle, which is usually a cucumber left whole or cut into spears, chunks, or slices, and flavored with salt, dill, spices, and sometimes vinegar and garlic. And even though a pickle can be anything from a string bean to a peach, the long, crunchy cucumber spears will inevitably be flavored with dill seed.
In cook's jargon, pickling is actually a process of fermenting food in a salty brine, or immersing in vinegar for a quick pickle. What we commonly call "pickles" are technically pickled cucumbers. You can even pickle lumber, such as for paneling or flooring, with calcium carbonate or lime.
If you haven't tried fresh dill weed, as the leaf is often called, you are in for a real treat. This lovely herb is used extensively in Scandinavian, Russian, and Eastern European cooking, and also in many Greek dishes. And while the leaf may look delicate, it adds a lot of flavor.
Use fresh dill weed with eggs, either as an edible garnish or as a small amount minced into the dish itself. It is the quintessential flavoring for a steaming bowl of new potatoes; simply sprinkle it on fresh, or dollop with a generous amount of dill weed blended with soft butter. You can use this butter to season all types of fresh vegetables as well as fish. Try sipping a cold glass of buttermilk or kefir flavored with a pinch of fresh dill – very refreshing.
Chewing on dill seed is said to be a remedy for hiccups. The word dill comes from the Norwegian dylla, meaning "to lull", and indeed, a mild tea made from the seeds is a good remedy for baby's colic and is said to help bring on mother's milk.
Dill Seed Tea – Boil 1 pint (2 cups) water, remove from heat, stir in 1 teaspoon dill seed, then cover and steep for 5 minutes. Strain and serve warm, up to 2 cups a day for mother and 2 small spoonfuls every hour for baby. You can also gently warm the seeds in milk for baby.
The lulling quality of dill must be one of the reasons why it is often used in sleep pillows – you know, those cute little pillows stuffed with magical herbs that you tuck under your regular pillow to lull you to sleep. I love how folklore and utility often go hand in hand.
The essential oil of dill has been shown to have antifungal and antibacterial potential, while the alcohol extract shows anti-oxidant properties; mass spectrometer studies resulted in the identification of 35 compounds responsible for the potency of this common garden herb.
It's easy to grow dill. If you have the garden space, you can successively plant every two weeks starting in May until the end of June for fresh dill all summer. Dill likes full sun and loamy soil, and moderate watering. Snip fresh leaves throughout the summer to keep them growing, but let some stems grow into seed heads too. Dill is a tall plant, from 2 to 3 feet, and prolific, so take that into consideration. Otherwise, find one of the more compact varieties to grow in a container. Fernleaf and Teddy are favorite container varieties, while Bouquet is the most common garden type.
Be sure to save some seed for planting Anethum graveolens next year: before they are fully ripe, cut the stem at least a foot below the seed head, and tie several stems into a bunch to hang and dry in a dark, airy place, perhaps with a loose paper bag around them to catch any errant seed. Dill makes a good companion plant for cole crops – cabbage, broccoli, and so on – while growing dill with carrots, parsnips or other plants of the Apiaceae or celery family (to which dill belongs) is discouraged.
If you find that you have extra dill fronds or flowering heads, you can use them in floral arrangements; they are quite beautiful.

6 Incredible Canadians Who Changed the World
ByAidan Rubery
Nations can have disproportionate influence in world culture and affairs based sheerly on individual talent. Canadians have always had a significant cultural influence both on the United States and the world at large. Whether inspiring millions to raise money for cancer research or introducing new audiences to the thrills of hockey, Canadians have left a permanent impression in all varieties of fields. These are six exceptional individuals who have done exactly this, and, in doing so, have put the Canadian name on the map with a strong sense of patriotism.
1. Roméo Dallaire
Roméo Dallaire is an interesting case because, while he was not capable of altering the course of the Rwandan genocide, his work to help prevent further damages, his book, and his work as a humanitarian in the wake of the genocide have succeeded in bringing the horrors of both ethnic violence and post-traumatic stress disorder to the forefront of public conscious.
His book, Shake Hands With the Devil, won the most prestigious award for non-fiction in Canada and was subsequently adapted into film. Moreover, he used his privileged position to bring awareness to the conflicts in Darfur and Iran (warning about potential atrocities inflicted on Baha'i communities).
2. Wayne Gretzky & Don Cherry
I was tempted, when constructing this list, to include these two as separate entries, but I feel that their combined impact outweighs their individual contributions. Combined, these two men brought hockey to the collective imagination in both Canada, and, later, the U.S. A larger than life personality, Don Cherry brought his country together with both love for the game and a strong sense of patriotism that has made Hockey Night in Canada a national and cultural staple on the level of Monday Night Football here in the States. Gretzky did the same with his flashy skill and marketability.
I attached a highlight reel of "The Great One" so you can see this sensation in action.
3. Terry Fox
Arguably the most inspiring story on this list, Terry Fox was a young university student who, upon receiving an initial diagnosis of cancer, immediately sought ways to raise money to fund research to help cure the disease.
Unconventionally, Terry Fox decided to try and run across Canada, despite having had his right leg amputated. In doing so, he ran the distance of a marathon every single day in order to raise money for his cause. In total, Fox ran a distance of 3,339 miles and raised $1.7 million while alive. Since, annual Terry Fox runs have raised $500 million for cancer research, and Fox has been considered a national hero ever since.
His outlook throughout the entire process can serve as a model for all of us to aspire to. Fox refused to acknowledge the disease and refused all offers to complete the run in his stead, claiming it was his race to finish.
4. Joni Mitchell
Joni Mitchell is an iconic singer whose music and voice have touched millions. Her voice is distinctive, and her guitar playing is extremely versatile. Songs like "Both Sides Now" are touching songs about love that have gotten many through tough times.
With fifteen Grammys, it's clear she's made a substantial contribution to all kinds of music, and generations of musicians.
5. Alexander Graham Bell
Although this entry goes without saying, the importance of the telephone in our lives and culture cannot be sufficiently described by words. Telephones, particularly cell phones today, make our world function the way it does. They provide us with hours of entertainment, and allow us to reinforce the relationships we care about. All thanks to Canada.

An Exhibition of spoons at Mr Kitly by Anna Varendorff and Eugene Howard. This project rejoiced in the simplicity and pleasure in the design of the 'spoon', examining the process of bringing a functional designed object into being and the threshold at which the spoon acquires its 'spooness'. Spoons by Anna Varendorff made from silver tailings leftover from her sculpture and jewellery practice, and Blackwood (Acacia Melanoxylon) spoons made by Eugene Howard from wood gifted to his family from a farm in Gippsland. Installed on a table with carved indentations the shape of each spoon, leaving the 'impression' of the spoon in the table as the spoons were taken over the duration of the exhibition.
A small number of spoons are stocked at Mr Kitly.

Wade Davis' top numbers expected by Colorado…
Wade Davis' top numbers expected by Colorado Rockies

The Rockies' Wade Davis throws in the ninth inning against the Brewers at Coors Field on Friday in Denver.
By Denver Post |
DENVER — Nolan Arenado knew the Rockies had signed a special breed of closer early in spring training when he sat with Wade Davis in the video room at Salt River Fields and the right-hander caused the third baseman to suffer a partial identity crisis.
"I asked him how he approached me when I faced him last year, and he told me some things that I never would've thought of," Arenado said. "It made me realize I need to understand who I am a little bit more, because he understands exactly who he is."
Who Davis has been this season is everything Colorado thought he would be when the club inked him to a three-year, $52 million deal in December that made the former Ray, Royal and Cub the most expensive reliever in major league history by annual value.
The 32-year-old leads baseball with 14 saves entering the weekend, and yet the stoic 'thinking man's closer' somehow isn't gobbling up headlines. Maybe that's because of the team's distracting problems on offense, or maybe it's because the rest of the bullpen has also, for the most part, been nails.
Or, as pointed out by reliever Adam Ottavino — the gem of the Rockies' bullpen so far with a 1.29 ERA and 0.71 WHIP in 21.0 innings of work entering Saturday — maybe the lack of attention Davis receives on a day-to-day basis in Denver is simply because his excellence has become an uninteresting expectation.
"When you're the best, people start to get used to that," Ottavino theorized. "With him — he had around a 1.00 ERA for three years (in Kansas City), and then was one of the best last year in Chicago — people just expect it. So when he does good, it's not a story."
Davis only needed seven pitches to sprint through his spring training debut, and since that day he's continued to perform with boring efficiency, surpassing 20 pitches in just three of his 16 regular-season appearances.
And for his part, Davis is content with playing the role of anonymous all-star — "attention can sometimes be counterproductive," he pointed out — with a repertoire of plus-pitches (fastball, curve, slider, cutter) that keeps everyone in the ballpark but him guessing.
"With some guys, when they get on the mound, you know they're going to throw this pitch or that pitch in a situation," Rockies reliever Mike Dunn said. "When Wade's up there, you have no idea what pitch he's going to throw — we're always trying to guess out in the bullpen — and he's got 100-percent conviction behind all his pitches."
It seems the only interesting Davis storyline left to be discussed is whether he can maintain his torrid pace.
Manager Bud Black doesn't believe there's any "overall concerns about the long-range consistency of Wade" throughout the grind of a 162-game season that ending up wearing down the Rockies' 2017 closer, Greg Holland.
Holland was dominant in the first half of last year, converting 28 of 29 save opportunities, but lost his magic after the all-star break to the tune of a 6.38 ERA and three blown saves in August alone.
"I think Holland was a little bit different from the standpoint he was coming off Tommy John (surgery), and he hadn't pitched the year before — that had a lot to do with (his second-half struggles)," bullpen coach Darren Holmes said. "With Wade, we've been good at monitoring his usage — he hasn't pitched more than two days in a row so far, and we've been keeping the communication open every day on how he's feeling."
Meanwhile, as Colorado's offense continues to search for its collective identity, Davis remains a ninth-inning rock. Even two blown saves so far this year, against Atlanta on April 7 and against the Brewers on Saturday, have done nothing to deter the widespread feeling in the clubhouse that the Rockies possess one of the best, if not the best, closer in the majors.
"Even if he does give up a save," Arenado said, "there's nobody I would rather go down with than Wade Davis."

The Old Hall is thought to be England's oldest hotel and was once home to Mary Queen of Scots who famously stayed at the hall under house arrest back in 1500's. Today the hotel is renowned for its warm hospitality, charming accommodation and for delicious, locally-sourced menu.
Steeped in history and built on the site of a natural warm spring, the Old Hall offers traditional charm, reflected throughout its 35 bedrooms which are all unique in design. Located a stone's throw from the picturesque Pavilion Gardens which offer beautiful views of the changing seasons, the Old Hall is perfectly located for discovering hidden gems.


"Can we get it right" is one of the questions answered in EuroREA 6. It was not easy to get the 1,000 books into our storage site in the Netherlands (see photo). We had recently before decided to change the annual publication date from autumn to spring which had meant hard work for the editors.
An important discussion is presented on archaeology, experience and craftsmanship. School didactics also are important and discussed form an Italian point of view. Bucchero grey ware from Italy is presented with some good pictures and ditto text. Iron smelting deserved its place in this volume as well – and finally an article on the first archaeological open-air museum in Moldavia.

Biografia
Texano di terza generazione, a quattordici anni Harkrider lasciò Fort Worth, la città del Texas dove viveva, per presentarsi a un provino di un film di Cecil B. DeMille. Non ebbe la parte, ma riuscì a entrare nel mondo del cinema come stuntman e controfigura. Dopo qualche particina come comparsa o figurante, nel 1920 iniziò a lavorare come costumista. Fu presentato a Florenz Ziegfeld da Louise Brooks.

Harkrider divenne una presenza fissa degli spettacoli di Ziegfeld; il suo primo lavoro fu, nel 1926, Palm Beach Days che più tardi prese il titolo No Foolin' . Disegnò i costumi per alcune delle Ziegfeld Follies e per alcuni dei più grandi successi di Broadway, come Rio Rita e Show Boat. Fu anche scenografo e regista.

Nel 1929, a Hollywood, Harkrider curò per la Paramount la sequenza delle Ziegfeld Follies nel film Glorifying the American Girl, che raccontava la scalata di una ragazza di provincia al firmamento dei palcoscenici musicali di Broadway. Fu il solo film supervisionato da Ziegfeld in persona.

Dopo la morte di Ziegfeld, Harkrider lasciò New York per andare a lavorare a Hollywood. Il suo stile spettacolare, però, era molto costoso. Quando presentò, insieme a William Anthony McGuire, il progetto di un film biografico su Ziegfeld all'Universal Studios, l'Universal dovette rinunciare e vendette il film alla MGM. Alla MGM, Harkrider lavorò indipendentemente dallo staff del film: sua la scena spettacolare per il numero The Most Beautiful Girl. Il film vinse l'Oscar per il miglior film.

Harkrider fu capo del dipartimento artistico della New Universal per due anni. Tornò al teatro musicale e, occasionalmente, agli show di Broadway. Dal 1945 al 1962, aprì un'agenzia teatrale. Impresario, talent scout e agente teatrale, era conosciuto come direttore di casting di modelli pubblicitari.

Al momento della morte, stava lavorando a Ziegfeldia, in onore del grande impresario.

John W. Harkrider morì nel 1982, a 81 anni d'età.

Do you want to learn how to make beauty products with coconut oil? Want to discover how to make beauty products with essential oils? You can. Whether you want to learn how to make beauty products with olive oil, how to make beauty products with beeswax, or how to make beauty products with cucumbers, there are methods available to you. Anyone can take the DIY homemade beauty products approach.
Homemade beauty products can give you the benefits you're looking for. Even more attractive is the notion that they can accomplish this for a lot less money than the products you can find in stores. You will also like the way these homemade beauty products do not contain potentially dangerous chemicals, as the case often seems to be with items available through retailers.
However, you will want to note that many of the natural ingredients used in these beauty products are a little on the expensive side of things. In terms of your initial investment, you are going to have to spend a little more on ingredients like coconut oil, beeswax, essential oils, cucumbers, or olive oil. However, this is only over the short-term. Over the course of the long-term, you are going to save a considerable amount of money. This is largely because the ingredients are extremely versatile, but it is also due to the fact that you don't need a lot of the ingredients for things like skincare products, deodorant bars, or sunscreen bars.
In other words, after you have made your initial purchase, you should be all set for a good while. Getting things like dried herbs (such as chamomile and calendula), zinc oxide (great for diaper creams and sunscreen products), sugar (for sugar scrubs), baking soda (essential for DIY deodorant), and salt (for hairsprays or skin-exfoliating products) all at once is just a good idea.
Learning how to make beauty products with essential oils is a snap. The same can be said for learning how to make beauty products with olive oil, or even learning how to make beauty products with coconut oil. You will find that there are tons of simple recipes to be discovered online. For example, making DIY deodorant involves mixing up baking soda and arrowroot in a medium-sized bowl, mashing in coconut oil, adding essential oils as needed, and then storing in a container for later use. See how simple it is to make these products?
