Let's be honest, we all have been faced with a few bad expereinces with tenants and know that finding a good tenant is a mission, but more importantly keeping your good tenant is a bigger one.
As property managers, we follow the "golden rule" of thinking about the tenant's situation, and putting ourselves in their shoes – even in times when it's ludacris like "There's a cockroach in my kitchen" at 11pm. But it is vital to realize their importance, after all they are the ones that are fueling your cash flow!
Here are some ways and reasons on how a good relationship can increase your return and create a peaceful situation for property managers, yourself and your tenant.
1. Keep you property maintained (Most Important!!) – By "maintained" I don't mean livable (that's what city inspections are for), by maintained I mean care for it; try creating an expereince your tenants can't forget. I always recommend landlords to have periodic maintenance reviews, this strategy not only helps you save money by identifying little problems that might turn into expensive projects later, but makes your tenant feel like they are being cared for as well. The inspectors usually replace smoke detector batteries, change the furnace filter and help resolving any other minor issues that might be present.
2. Respect their privacy – Everyone knows you own the property, but that does not mean you have the right to just show up or walk in any time! Always be accomodating towards privacy and give a 24 hour notice unless it's an emergency.
3. Address their problems in a quick manner – There are numerous times when landlords just go MIA, especially when there's some kind of repair or upgrade needed. Recognize the importance of being responsive, if you yourself or your property manager resolves an issue quick, it not only shows good service but also results in your tenant being obliged to go the extra-mile for you, if a situation like that does arise. So, make timely repairs.
4. Get to know them personally – Most landlords think they have nothing to do with their tenants after property managers come in, but by establishing a personal and friendly business relationship with them can make a major difference. Coming back to cultivating mutual respect, which is possible only when you show concern or interest in their overall expereince. As Business professionals, we all value the beauty of conencting with people and building relationships so why not use the same concept as a landlord?
Bottom line: satisfying your tenants is very important for your cash flow, and will gaurantee longer and higher returns. This is not rocket science and savvy investors know this!
Biggest secret to it is being a little thoughtful, showing you care in creating a memorable and shareable expereince. Trust me, it always pays to be nicer and go the extra-mile once in a while, in any aspect of life.

The File Inclusion vulnerability allows an attacker to include a file, usually exploiting a "dynamic file inclusion" mechanisms implemented in the target application. The vulnerability occurs due to the use of user-supplied input without proper validation.
Local File Inclusion (also known as LFI) is the process of including files, that are already locally present on the server, through the exploiting of vulnerable inclusion procedures implemented in the application. This vulnerability occurs, for example, when a page receives, as input, the path to the file that has to be included and this input is not properly sanitized, allowing directory traversal characters (such as dot-dot-slash) to be injected. Although most examples point to vulnerable PHP scripts, we should keep in mind that it is also common in other technologies such as JSP, ASP and others.
So the examples included in the lab they are both vulnerable to Local File Inclusion (LFI) and Remote File Inclusion (RFI) so we can easily test for both vulnerabilities on the same place.
Since LFI occurs when paths passed to "include" statements are not properly sanitized, in a blackbox testing approach, we should look for scripts which take filenames as parameters this is the most common example and is mostly the case in most live tests.
So this is the example 1 of the lab.
Now this a perfect place where attacker can start his test and the most common approach to test for LFI is to get the /etc/passwd files data from the server.
And after this you will get the content of the file.
And for RFI you just need to all the url to your shell (Should be in .txt format on your server) in the parameter.
and the content of the file will get executed on the server side.
This is also really simple as we talked before in sql injection section and XSS that some security measures regarding the file extension can be bypassed using the null-byte method so the same is the case over here.

Veteran wishes for beautiful Memorial Day tribute at historic Hopewell cemetery
Posted 7:04 pm, May 25, 2018, by Wayne Covil and Web Staff, Updated at 01:42PM, May 31, 2018
HOPEWELL, Va. -- As Memorial Day nears, a former Army soldier wishes he could see a powerful display of patriotism billowing once again at a historic cemetery in Hopewell.
When it comes to loving the broad stripes and bright stars, C.D. Jackson Jr. ranks among the top.
Back when the Vietnam veteran was Commander of the Hopewell Disabled American Veterans Post 25, he made sure more than 100 large American flags were gallantly streaming City Point National Cemetery.
C.D. Jackson Jr.
"We ended up having so many flags, that we stated running them down the wall," he told another veteran at the cemetery on Friday.
Jackson said he had no reason to believe the flags he helped fly on special occasions in the late 1980s early 1990s were not still being flown.
"Then I came here on a Memorial Day or Veterans Day and they weren't up," Jackson explained.
The flags were flown as part of the Avenue of Flags, which the DAV Post 25 had coordinated for years. But as the years passed, Post 25 disbanded and the flags ended up in storage.
After years of not being flown or used, they were properly disposed of years ago, Jackson discovered.
Jackson's father, a decorated World War II soldier, was laid to rest at the cemetery in 1957.
He vividly remembers all the flags flying at once.
"It would be beautiful and it would be very moving and I don't think you could do enough for these people laying here," Jackson said.
Wreaths Across America Coordinator Don Vtipil said bringing back the tradition would be a "great opportunity" for the community.
"I think that would be wonderful and I would love to see the Citizens sponsor something like this," VFW Post 63 Commander Lee Dixon of VFW Post 637 said.
Vtipil said more than 6,000 veterans are buried at the historic cemetery.
"It's kind of a quiet, little known cemetery, but it turns out to be beautiful when we do the wreaths and if you put some big flags out there, it would be just beautiful," Vtipil said.
The key will be getting the flags donated and then having them installed for special occasions.
"I think it's doable," Dixon said. "It must be doable, because it was done in the past."
City Point National Cemetery
Jackson hopes donated flags will bring back the tradition. If you would like to volunteer or make a donation, click here for more information.
In another move to honor local veterans, the Hopewell VFW and American Legion are working with City Hall to hang "Hometown Hero" banners featuring men and woman who served in the military.

Kate and Sean Ashley expanded their twenties house upwards and outwards to accommodate the needs of their growing family.
For years, Kate and Sean Ashley stuggled with the cramped layout of their twenties home. 'Sean and I would eat breakfaststanding up, and the family had to sit in a line when we were in the living room,' says Kate. When the couple bought the house in 2005, their twins, Harry and Jamie (now 12), were toddlers, Kate was pregnant with their son George, now nine, and two years later Grace, now seven was born.
The Ashleys considered a variety of designs, but finally decided to replace the garage with a single-storey side extension to expand the living room and kitchen, and build a two-storey rear extension to crate a family room and another bedroom. They also decided to convert the loft into a main bedroom and a wetroom, with dormers on three sides clad in reclaimed tiles to match the existing roof. Thanks to the clever design, the footprint of the house would hardly change, and everything apart from the first-floor rear bedroom was granted under permitted development rights.
KEEPING WITHIN BUDGET 'To save money, we rented the smallest three-bedroom semi-detatched house we could squash into and put all our belongings into storage, because there was no way we could live at home once the work started,' says Sean.
In September 2012, the roof was stripped and covered for protection. Soakaways and foundations for the extensions were dug and new brick and block walls erected. The garage to the side of the house was demolished and an extension was built in its place. A new chimney breast and fireplace were added to the living room at the front of the house to lend the space more character.
GOING OPEN PLAN A wall was removed between the old kitchen and the rear reception room to create one large open plan kitchen and dining area in the side extension, which is lit by rooflights. A dining table and chairs let the whole family sit and eat together instead of hovering around the breakfast bar.
The two-storey rear extension was built in rendered blockwork under a pitched roof, with a 1.5m single-storey section to house the new family room, where two sets of bifold glass doors where installed. 'Opening up the back of the house means it's easy to keep an eye on the children indoors and out' says Kate.
A first-floor shower room was sacrificed to create space for for a staircase leading up to the loft, where there is now a main bedroom and wetroom, making it a peaceful retreat for Kate and Sean at the top of the house. Some more floor space was added to the family bathroom, and a former box room was enlarged to give Grace a larger bedroom with roof lights.
Kate and Sean compiled a scrapbook of ideas for the house and sourced a new kitchen and bathroom fittings, lighting, radiators and floor coverings, including travertine tiles and underfloor heating in the open-plan kitchen, dining room and family space.

Develop, recommend, and assist in the administration of an outreach action plan designed to overcome these barriers and to ensure as complete a count as possible of Michigan's population in the 2020 Census;
Develop, recommend, and assist in the distribution of educational and promotional materials designed to heighten awareness of, and encourage the full participation of Michigan residents in, the 2020 Census;
Identify opportunities to coordinate its efforts and resources with those of the various individuals and entities working on the federal, state, and local levels to ensure as complete a count as possible of Michigan's population in the 2020 Census; and
Provide other advice and take other action as requested by the governor.
The Committee shall complete its work and submit a final report to the governor by October 1, 2020.

UNDP Seoul Policy Centre for Knowledge Exchange through SDG Partnerships
UNDP Seoul Policy Centre hosts knowledge exchange on corruption prevention at the 19th IACC
On 2 December 2020, the UNDP Seoul Policy Centre (USPC) hosted a joint workshop with the Anti-Corruption & Civil Rights Commission (ACRC) of the Republic of Korea (RoK) at the 19th International Anti-Corruption Conference (IACC), the biggest annual global forum on anti-corruption; this year virtually hosted by RoK and with UNDP stepping in as a forum partner.
Knowledge exchange constitutes a critical dimension for the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and it is a key aspect of development cooperation in the anti-corruption area. At the same time, while exchanges of information and experiences take place everywhere, it is not always automatic that knowledge sharing in development cooperation leads to concrete and sustainable results. "This is a pity because a tested-and-proven policy solution in one country holds the potential to serve as a catalyst for innovation and breakthrough in another country," noted Dr. Stephan Klingebiel, Director of USPC, in his opening statement.
Based on the partnership and collaborative work by USPC and ACRC for the past five years, the workshop convened a discussion on how one country's anti-corruption policies can be effectively shared, applied and institutionalized in partner countries, going beyond one-off study tours and training. The workshop showcased how Kosovo and Viet Nam, in partnership with ACRC and UNDP, have successfully adapted and institutionalized ACRC's anti-corruption assessment tools in their national contexts. Their presentations demonstrated the need to design international cooperation and development project activities in flexible ways and with a combination of necessary ideas, resources, partners, and time so that partners can re-engineer, refine, and apply the new approaches and "how-to" insights according to their national timelines and through their own governance systems. In the case of Vietnam and Kosovo, the types of support provided and the timeline of UNDP-ACRC activities was indeed formulated and revised multiple times on the go, so as to meet the shifting political and institutional contexts and challenges along the way.
During the workshop, Mr. Park Gae-ok, the Assistant Chairman to ACRC, presented the achievements and future plans of the ACRC-UNDP Partnership on Anti-Corruption Knowledge Exchange. He emphasized that "the successful model of anti-corruption knowledge-sharing was established through joint cooperation among the three parties: Korea's effective anti-corruption tool and contents, UNDP's professionalism in development projects and its global network, and the developing countries' active will and effort." While showcasing the Vietnamese experience of building the Provincial Anti-Corruption Assessment (PACA) Index inspired by AIA, Mr. Phi Ngoc Tuyen, Deputy Director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau of Government Inspectorate of Vietnam (GIV), said "we suggest that other interested countriescan refer to the evaluation methodology of AIA or PACA. It is an evidence-based assessment methodology, which, in our opinion, is scientific and reliable." Mr. Mentor Borovci, Director of the Legal Office of the Prime Minister's Office of Kosovo, advised all public officials to understand that "this is a very valuable tool in anti-corruption" and that he urges all partners to "examine the Korean model and find ways to introduce this into their own national context". Last but not least, Mr. Mato Meyer of UNDP Kosovo proudly presented the amendment to the "Laws on Anti-Corruption Assessment of Legal Acts" which will provide a legal basis for Kosovo's mechanism, perfected with ACRC's guidance facilitated by USPC.
Overall, the workshop emphasized that governments and development partners need to work together to enhance the "knowledge sharing" aspects of our cooperation in the field of anti-corruption so that ideas can be translated into actions, and knowledge turned into power for change.
* UNDP Seoul Policy Centre (USPC) shares Korea's tested-and-proven policy tools with other countries through SDG Partnerships. SDG Partnerships provide a combination of support, including partnership development with Korean institutions, seed funding, technical assistance, and policy advisory services. It utilizes UNDP's global policy network of country offices and the policy expertise and know-how of partner organizations such as ACRC.
* The Opening Ceremony of the 19th IACC on 2 December featured President Moon Jae-in of RoK and Chairperson Jeon Hyun-Heui of ACRC and distinguished participants such as Mr. Antonio Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, Mr. Ban Ki-moon, former Secretary-General of the United Nations, and Mr. Angel Gurria, Secretary-General of OECD.

Vacation Bible School is a great blessing to the church. Nightly teachers take their students young and old through the Amazing Road Trip of a Christian journey for daily life. Each lesson begins with scripture, highlights key terms, and gives current scenarios as illustrations. Teachers are creative in their instruction of the class. Perhaps they are putting to use the skills they learned in the COPP course of Creative Ways of Teaching taught last week in TTMBC Christian Leadership School. Classes meet separately for 90 minutes and then the whole school joins together for the lesson recap, bible and Christian flag pledges, and songs. A light dinner feeds the body after the soul has been nourished. Attendance has been around 119 students of all ages. Come out and join us from 6-8PM for two more nights! This is just one of the biblical literacy events in TTMBC Christian Education Month!


Meet Chaney, a 19-year-old multitalented artist from the South West area creating funky and fresh music from his home studio in Swindon.
Theo Altieri, first began his musical career playing in bands from the young age of seven, originally as a drummer, but once he got hooked on songwriting and guitar playing, he began gigging and playing regularly to local crowds as a solo performer. At around the age of 16, with a hand full of releases and shows under his belt, Theo was picked up by Warner/Chappell Music and signed a publishing deal.
With such positive success and experiences from a young age it has allowed Theo to experiment with different sounds, playing in bands and now creating a thoroughly exciting new project, Chaney.
"I have been getting more involved in music production as well as writing and performing," he tells us. This as well as working with Mark Ralph (Years & Years' producer) and finally signing a deal with RCA Records, home to the likes of Kings Of Leon.
The first release from the new project, Chaney, was single "Ready When You Need Me" announced as an exclusive on BBC Introducing in the West on Sunday evening. The track is a perfect example of what is to come from the project and complete vibe change for the teenager. A feel good and upbeat, funk filled dance track that will make you want to get your groove on, no matter where or when.
There are so many exciting sounds working together perfectly, similar to a Daft Punk sounding record, with the groovy guitar rifts and distinctive vocals from Theo himself.
"I have always listened to a wide range of music and have taken a lot of influences from dance music, culture and bands, but I always try to bring something slightly different and genuine to it – being from Swindon, a rather small and local kind of place allows me to really do that".
With so many fresh artists growing and releasing music every month, makes it challenging for people to be noticed and appreciated, so it is really promising when such talented people are getting the recognition that they deserve.
"I'm very proud to be in the position from the industry supporting what I'm doing and making it possible for me to do what I do best, day to day. It's been amazing having so many industry heads, producers and writers investing time in the project and being at the stage of first releases, I feel real excited".
With previous experience of being in bands and performing live on stage a certain way, the live set up is something that has had to be rethought of from the mutli-instrumentalist who describes his set as "a cross over between being at a mad party but with structure, solid stories and bass lines underneath".
As live music is a huge part being an artist, Chaney admits, "I'm really excited to play more gigs and have always wanted to do a set at Glastonbury, among other festivals which I will hopefully be playing in the future. Above all, making an album that makes everyone want to stroll out of their houses and walk to work with a pair of Maracas like Bez". Now that's the attitude to have!
With writing still to be completed for the new records and writing sessions with producers booked in the diary, we are thrilled to hear that new music is on the way with an album to follow.
"I always try my best to write instant sounding lyrics and melodies and generally take a lot of inspiration from the kind of life style I live in a small town, where I feel the majority of people can relate". Well he's made a wonderful impression so far and we are elated for the new music and what is to come for Chaney.

ANALYSIS: Chinese IP Filing Surge Clouds U.S. Receipt Prospects
By Brian Cassidy
Sept. 6, 2019, 10:30 AM
From trade wars to tariffs and isolation, actions of the U.S. Government could be accelerating long-term declines in U.S. intellectual property (IP) interests. Creating barriers between the U.S. and global markets could limit short-term revenues and solidify China—already showing a dramatic upsurge in IP filings—as a major IP competitor.
A look at the current, and shifting, IP landscape shows that Chinese IP owners are exerting growing influence in their critical economic market.
1. The current IP field
U.S. IP receipts—calculated from the authorized use of the proprietary rights associated with patents, trademarks, copyrights, industrial processes and designs including trade secrets, and franchises—accounted for more than half of global IP receipts in 2000. That share has steadily declined in the years since 2000 to 35% in 2018.
Japan and the European Union are also substantial recipients of IP revenues. Combined Japanese, European Union, and U.S. IP receipts have fallen from 92% to 86% over the same period.
Meanwhile, over the last ten years, Chinese businesses have made aggressive moves in both acquiring and utilizing IP.
China has tripled its IP revenues over the last two years, but still only accounts for around 1.5% of global receipts. The World Bank reported 2017 Chinese residential IP filings—i.e., filings by a resident assignee or resident applicant—as more than the residential filings of all other countries combined. These IP filings included patents, trademarks, and industrial designs.
Japanese resident patent filings outnumbered other countries in 2000. 2010 saw a changing of the guard, as China became the top domestic filer. As of 2017, Chinese residential filings accounted for around 58% of all tracked residential patent filings.
China has been the leader in resident trademark filings since 2004 (as far back as World Bank Open Data goes). That lead has grown steadily to around 57% of residential trademark filings in 2017.
Chinese resident industrial design filings overtook Japanese filings in 1999. China has remained the top filer since, and accounted for around 64% of resident industrial design filings in 2017.
It appears that Chinese companies are making a concerted effort to own a significant portion of the Chinese IP landscape. A significant portion of the Chinese IP market would lift Chinese IP receipts well above the 1.5% they currently account for, and likely put China into direct competition with EU, Japanese, and U.S. IP assets.
2. China is at bat, India is on deck
From 2016 to 2018, IP receipts attributable to Chinese residents and Chinese companies have grown from just over one billion U.S. dollars to a little over five and one-half billion. Given the intensity of IP filings within China, and the market potential within the region, it is reasonable to assume that receipts will continue to grow, and at a comparable rate.
The Asia/Pacific market is the largest, and one of the fastest growing, markets in the world. China and India, the only countries that have populations of over a billion people, represent more than a third of the world's population, but account for less than 2% of global IP receipts. This is changing rapidly, and if growth trends in the film and gaming industries are any indication, China's IP receipts will continue to increase rapidly. India's IP receipts could follow that growth, but at a slower pace.
(a) Movies
The Chinese box office is the fastest growing movie market in the world. Asia/Pacific is the fastest growing region, and China is the fastest growing member of that region.
The movie industry is booming. 2018 marked a record high for the U.S./Canada box office, with 11.9 billion dollars in sales. This is a 10% increase from 2012, when the U.S. and Canada combined for 10.8 billion dollars in box office revenues. The Chinese box office hit 9 billion U.S. dollars in sales. This is a remarkable 233% increase from 2012.
(b) Music
Music revenues have grown in the last four years, but 2018 revenues are only 80% of 2001 revenues. Sales have shifted over the last 18 years from primarily physical media (vinyl, cassette, CD) to digital media (download and streaming). 2014 appears to have been the year that digital media supplanted physical as the format leader.
The transition into digital format creates opportunities and pitfalls for music producers. Distribution of digital-format music is easier, as the number of physical records/cassettes/CDs created and delivered to individual stores does not need to be approximated and optimized. Obscure, offbeat bands will be available if included within the streaming/downloading service. Consumers do not have to wait in line on release day at the music store to avoid the risk of a hot album selling out.
But along with ease of distribution come problems in establishing a payment structure. The 2014 dip in revenues shows an inflection point where digital revenues covered, and overcame, the losses associated with reduced physical sales.
China has the most smartphone users, at around three-quarters of a billion users. That is more than the U.S. and India combined. If phones have become the "record store," China has around 30% of those stores.
(c) Video Games
Asia/Pacific was the largest market for video games from 2015 to 2019. Percentages stayed generally static over the five years, and the U.S. and China were consistently the top country markets.
Chinese companies might not yet account for a significant portion of IP revenues, but the Chinese government was recently responsible for fluctuations in the video game market. The Chinese market grew by over 10 billion US$ from 2017 to 2018, separating itself from a generally comparable U.S. market by over 7 billion dollars. The trend tempered when the Chinese market lost around 1.4 billion dollars in 2019.
It is likely that the decrease in the Chinese market is attributable to a temporary license freeze and establishment of an Online Game Ethics Committee at the end of 2018. This downturn might show weakness in the Chinese market, but it also shows the global gaming market's dependency on the Chinese market. A Bloomberg article by Yuji Nakamura cites a long-time gaming analyst, Pelham Smithers, as predicting the first fall in gaming revenues since 1995, and cites China's regulatory practices as one of three major factors for this downturn.
3. Shift in the standings
It appears that the loss of U.S. market share would prove less damaging to Chinese companies than would the loss of Chinese market share to U.S. companies. While U.S. consumers buy products manufactured in China in significant numbers, many of those products are covered by U.S. IP. From smart phones to U.S. clothing brands, Chinese-made goods are often tied to U.S. companies.
Establishing tariffs on Chinese-made goods might force sellers to seek manufactured goods and components from countries other than China. Without Chinese manufacturing, many companies will not be able to justify acquiring and maintaining IP protections in China. That shift might temporarily protect trade secrets and other vulnerable U.S. ideas, assisting U.S. businesses with maintaining R&D and other vulnerable IP-related assets in a safer environment. However, this scenario also creates a vacuum that other, non-U.S. companies will fill.
The growing rate of IP filings in China, by Chinese companies, suggests that Chinese companies are planning to fill any gap that the U.S. leaves. Current U.S. policy appears to trade a short-term harm to Chinese manufacturing for a long-term gain in Chinese IP.

RICHMOND'S revival continues to gather momentum after defeating Essendon by 38 points in their Dreamtime at the 'G clash on Saturday night.
In front of 56,948 fans who braved the icy conditions for the showpiece event of the renamed Sir Doug Nicholls Indigenous Round, the Tigers did no more than was required in grinding out a 16.9 (105) to 10.7 (67) victory.
After lurching to 1-6, Richmond has won its past three games to remain in the hunt for a fourth successive finals campaign. Meanwhile, the suspension-depleted Bombers are 1-9 after dropping their past eight games.
The Tigers' midfield was the difference, proving too prolific and classy for the young Bombers, with the strong efforts coming from best afield Dustin Martin (a career-high 38 possessions), Brett Deledio (23 and three goals), Shane Edwards (26 and a goal), Trent Cotchin (29 and two goals), Brandon Ellis (30) and Shaun Grigg (23 and two goals).
Edwards and Deledio were instrumental in setting up the Tigers' early ascendancy – Edwards gathering a game-high 12 touches and a goal in the first term, while Deledio showed no effects of the illness that prevented him from training late in the week, kicking two first-quarter goals and amassing 17 possessions in the first half.
Richmond coach Damien Hardwick was happy to bank another win but wasn't entirely satisfied with his team's effort.
"We won ugly," Hardwick said post-match.
"All credit to Essendon. I thought their pressure was very good – they smashed us in tackles (71-44) and their pressure around the contest was good.
"We weren't overly pleased with our performance but we were good enough to get the four points.
"We've got some work to do, there's no doubt about that, but we're starting to see a little bit of improvement in us, which is really good."
Essendon coach John Worsfold, who reached 500 games as a player and coach combined, was pleased that his side embraced the big occasion "a lot better" than it had on Anzac Day.
"It wasn't a great start – they had one on the board in 20 seconds, but overall they handled the occasion really well," Worsfold said.
"We really fought on and kept coming back at them."
Richmond twice threatened to blow the game apart in the first half before Essendon admirably fought back to within striking distance.
The Tigers jumped out of the blocks with four of the first five goals to lead by 19 points midway through the opening term, but against the script, the Bombers responded with two quick goals.
The Tigers then rattled on the next three goals to extend their advantage to 28 points early in the second quarter before the Bombers again conjured back-to-back goals, with Orazio Fantasia's second major from a set shot after the siren reducing the margin to 16 points at the long break.
Richmond ground away to a 41-point lead by three-quarter time before the never-say-die Dons breathed new life into the contest with the first two goals of the final term, before Ty Vickery kicked his third goal, and ultimately the sealer, midway through the final term.
As expected, the Bombers were outclassed, but they weren't outworked, bravely continuing to take the game on in a manner best exemplified by youngsters Fantasia and Darcy Parish combining for a terrific goal midway through the third term.
This exuberant duo was among the Dons' best performers – Parish (25 disposals and two goals) continuing to push his claims for NAB AFL Rising Star honours in an impressive midfield/forward display, while Fantasia (two goals) was lively in attack.
Usual suspects in skipper Brendon Goddard (34) and David Zaharakis (30) led the Bombers strongly, while Zach Merrett and Adam Cooney tried hard, and Courtenay Dempsey proved a quality inclusion across half-back.
Essendon: Defender Michael Hartley left the field in the third term with a tight right hamstring and took no further part, and coach Worsfold said he will miss "a couple of weeks". Craig Bird copped a knock in the third term, resulting in a potentially broken nose, but played on.
Richmond: David Astbury went off just before half-time clutching his left calf and re-emerged with strapping. Daniel Rioli limped off in the third term with a sore right knee.
Richmond encounters league leader North Melbourne on the rebound in the first AFL night game at Blundstone Arena in Hobart on Friday night, while Essendon travels to Perth to take on winless Fremantle on Saturday night.

Kathleen Garretson (born May 15, 1963) is an American television director, producer and podcaster. Garretson has directed episodes of the sitcoms Frasier, 2 Broke Girls, Fuller House and the season one finale of the Punky Brewster reboot in 2021, among others, as well as producing Hallmark's Garage Sale Mystery movies. She received the Frank Capra Lifetime Achievement Award from the Directors Guild of America (DGA) in 2012. Garretson also hosted the hit podcast "Mojo Girl Madness."

Early life
Kathleen Garretson was born in Nuremberg, West Germany, where her father, a Captain in the U.S. Air Force, was stationed. Her parents were John Thomas Garretson, of Tucson, Arizona, where he earned his business degree from the University of Arizona, and Elinor Van Haltern, from Dallas, Texas, and a graduate of Southern Methodist University (SMU). Garretson is a graduate of the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, earning degrees in both Journalism and Business Communications. At USC, Garretson was a member of the Delta Delta Delta sorority, and was an award-winning member of the USC Speech & Debate Team. She became interested in the film industry while working at her college job as a tour guide at Universal Studios.

Career
A TV director and a professor of directing at the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts, Garretson has had a long career in entertainment. Following graduation from the University of Southern California, and a brief run as a production assistant and stand-in, Garretson was accepted into the Directors Guild of America training program. Following a two-year trainee period, she then fully joined the DGA as an assistant director. During her first few years as a DGA member, Garretson worked mainly on made-for-TV films and feature films. Her credits include the feature films Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, Clifford, Switch and The Specialist.

Garretson continued to work as an assistant director on "movies of the week", features and commercials for several years, until she was hired to be an assistant director on the sitcom Frasier. She slowly segued out of being an AD on "single-camera" productions as her credit list on "multi-camera" shows grew. Garretson then made her directorial debut during Frasier's sixth season. She was nominated for a Directors Guild of America Award for "Best Comedy Director of 1999" for her first directing assignment. She continued to direct episodes of Frasier until the show's end in 2004. Her other directing credits include the new Punky Brewster reboot for Peacock, Carol's Second Act with Patricia Heaton, Broke with Pauley Perrette, The Cool Kids, Alexa & Katie, Fuller House, 2 Broke Girls, The Odd Couple, One Big Happy, Young & Hungry, Sullivan & Son, Titus, Reba, Girlfriends, George Lopez, Freddie, One on One, True Jackson, VP and the animated series Sid the Science Kid.

In January 2012, Garretson was awarded the Frank Capra Lifetime Achievement Award from the DGA. She was the 26th recipient of this award since the Guild was founded, and it was presented to her by director Michael Apted. Garretson served as an Associate National Board member and three-term Council Chair at the DGA, and on numerous guild committees. She currently serves the Directors Guild of America as a member of the PAC Leadership Committee, the Frank Capra Award Committee, and the Western Directors Council Ethics Committee.

Garretson took a three-year hiatus from directing from early-2012 through 2014 to serve as the CEO/Executive Director of the non-profit I Have A Dream Foundation - Los Angeles. She had been a mentor and volunteer with the organization for many years, and was asked to oversee a rebuilding and revitalization of the foundation. This was accomplished by the end of 2014, and Garretson returned to her creative roots in film and television production.

Garretson is also a television producer, and in 2011-12, found, developed and was the supervising producer on a TV movie, Garage Sale Mystery, for Hallmark Channel. This movie, which aired in September 2013, broke nearly every ratings record for the Hallmark Channel, and in March 2014, Hallmark announced it would re-brand its movie channel to be the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Channel, and would have a "wheel" of mystery movies led by new Garage Sale Mysteries. Fifteen Garage Sale Mysteries have aired and four new ones were scheduled to air in August, 2019, however midway through shooting of the seventeenth GSM, the star was indicted in the college admissions scandal and the movie series was cancelled by Hallmark.

Garretson has long been active in the Directors Guild of America and the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, speaking on numerous panels and seminars. She has also taught classes on sitcom directing at the American Film Institute in Los Angeles and has been a guest speaker for multiple courses at both the USC School of Cinematic Arts, where she now teaches a graduate course on directing, and the Screenwriting Program at UCLA. Additionally, Garretson has remained active as an alumna of USC. She served on the inaugural Alumni Board of Directors for the Annenberg School of Journalism and Communications, and is a booster and avid fan of USC Trojan Football.

When you have 'legend' in the name of the production company, what can possibly go wrong with the movie they are making? Turns out everything, like what happened in the biopic on our Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The much-awaited trailer of the biopic starring Vivek Oberoi is finally here, which covers PM Modi's 64 years of journey, right from the days of poverty, selling tea at a railway station as a chaiwala to becoming the prime minister of the world's largest democracy. According to the trailer description, "this film is the inspiring saga of a man, a politician, a leader and a visionary." In case you missed it, here's the trailer we're talking about.
As soon as Vivek Oberoi's first look was out, Twitter turned its savage mode on and trolled the hell out of the reel-life PM Modi. Now that the trailer is released, the jokes only got funnier.
Yesterday, when most people were busy celebrating Holi, Twitter was churning out hilarious memes out of this 2 minute and 35 seconds trailer. The dialogues that were meant to move people are now tickling their funny-bones.
UNESCO has declared #PMNarendraModiTrailer as the best trailer in the world.
Directed by Omung Kumar, 'PM Narendra Modi' is expected to release on April 5.


Several mechanisms have so far been explored: from whole-body changes to specific cerebral neuro-chemical pathways to immune system modulation; as well as localised responses such as increased muscle blood perfusion or temperature at the needling site.
"...nitric oxide increases blood flow and encourages the release of analgesic or sensitizing substances, which causes the skin to feel warmer and contributes to the beneficial effects of the therapies."

See Superman's Black Suit in Justice League Deleted Scene
By The Credits
You could have a pretty healthy debate about which is the coolest black suit in all of comics. While our money would be on Black Panther's, you could obviously make a strong argument for Batman's iconic dark suit, or, if you went the villain route (or anti-hero, depending upon how you feel about alien sybarites), you could even throw in Venom.
Yet there is likely no black suit that carries as much somber significance as Superman's. In the comics, Superman wears his black suit in "The Death of Superman," which featured Superman sacrificing himself to kill Doomsday (as he did in Batman v Superman), and then donning the black suit after he's resurrected. While rumors persisted that we'd see Superman's famous black suit in Justice League, it never happened, despite the fact that he's brought back from the dead, an event that screamed for the dark suit.
Yet, just because we didn't see it doesn't mean it wasn't a consideration—a new Justice League deleted scene reveals the black suit was something the filmmakers considered, and a scene was shot that included it. This moment shows Superman exploring the destroyed Kryptonian ship and finding the suit—why he doesn't put it on (or if he did and it was cut) is a question we hope to have answered.
While the below deleted scene gives us only a glimpse of the black suit, it's likely that once the Justice League Blu-ray digital download is available tomorrow, and the full combo pack on March 13, there will be plenty more scenes like the below that'll show us all the avenues directors Zack Snyder, and then Joss Whedon, were exploring for the film. The downed ship seemed to host a hall of marvels (check out the odd space suit before Superman makes it to the black suit), and the fact that the black suit was included makes us think that Superman was going to wear it at some point in the film.
Although Superman never dons the black suit in the film, his rage upon his resurrection, and his fury towards Batman, were certainly black suit-level behaviors.

This fall I once again had the pleasure to attend a Civil War era first person immersion event at Welbourne Plantation in Middleburg, Virginia. I have come to look forward and prepare for to this event all year long and revel in each moment spent in Middleburg each October.
Each event participant selects a specific historical person to portray at the four day long event. There are quite a few published diaries written by Middleburg residents during the Civil War years. It's fascinating to read the war-time thoughts of local women and portray an 1860s Middleburg resident for a weekend. Of course, one of my favorite parts is researching and creating the clothing for my 'character'.
This year the event was set in the year 1865. The Civil War was over and Middleburg residents were working to rebuild their lives. The real-life women that my mother and I portray had fared surprisingly well during the war. While neighbors struggled to keep shoes on their feet, their family seemed to always have enough to bless those around them with food, clothing and other supplies. Therefore, even in 1865 the wardrobes still reflected some of the wealth that the family had originally had.
The first day of the event, a Friday, we had a formal breakfast in the dining room, clothed in our wrappers. Wrappers are one of my favorite Victorian articles of clothing to research because they were usually very elaborately trimmed and often made of bold colors.
Above, my mother, Nancy, wears a silk wrapper based off of an original wrapper in the collection of the MET. Read more about it HERE.
My wrapper was inspired by an 1860s fashion plate. Read more about it HERE.
After breakfast on Saturday we had our image made by Jim Pfeiffer in our wrappers on the back porch.


My research focuses on understanding the response of ecological systems to changing and altered landscapes. I work at a variety of scales and use a multitude of quantitative tools to address questions of climate change impacts and avian migration.
Climate Change research: our efforts have focused specifically on modeling the response of 147 bird species' habitats and 134 tree species' habitats to climate change across the Eastern United States. As our modeling efforts continue, we are striving to create decision support tools to integrate and synthesize this work for the public and land managers.
Avian Migration: I am exploring questions on the habitat requirements and behavioral decisions of migrant birds during migratory stopover within rapidly urbanizing metropolitan areas.
I plan to continue my current research, and I would like to expand the breadth of my focus to include other taxa. In addition, I hope to contribute to new research areas where I can apply my interest of quantitative ecology to gain further perspective of how landscape changes may influence ecological communities.
With greater awareness that global climate change is becoming reality and that urbanization is increasing worldwide, both of these research avenues represent areas of increased importance within the field of landscape ecology.

The diverse forests of the eastern United States provide a multitude of benefits that enhance human well-being. Climate change has the potential to disrupt the very tree species and forest communities that provide these ecosystem services. Developing a framework that considers how projected changes in species habitats may respond to climate change is essential to exploring relative changes in some of the ecosystem services that forests provide.
