As the result of a leadership re-organisation, BWA's board of directors has appointed Paschalis Patsiokas as interim chief executive officer, starting immediately. Patsiokas replaces Stefano Tositti as an experienced and committed entrepreneur in the shipping and yachting fields.
Patsiokas already has extensive experience and knowledge of the company, having previously acted as Executive Vice President, and has worked in various roles for the organisation for over 12 years.
With the summer season in the Mediterranean just around the corner, Patsiokas is taking over the helm at a busy time, but is well suited to his new position.


I'm just going to come right out and say it: RFPs are terrible.
You (person tasked with writing them and reviewing responses) know it. I (person tasked with reading them and responding) know it. RFPs (Request for Proposal, for those of you lucky enough not to know what this acronym means), are cumbersome, time consuming, and — in my opinion — an ineffective way to evaluate the most important aspects of a partner relationship.
So why do we keep writing and reviewing and reading and responding?
I am always glad to hear from organizations interested in having us bid on a project. You think we might be a good fit for you? That's great news! I would love to learn more about your organization and what you're trying to do and figure out how Software for Good can help you get there. We know how important it is for you to find the right partner for a development project, because it's equally important for us to find the right clients.
But then you hand me a 50-page document full of legal terminology and deadlines and forms and only one paragraph of real, helpful information about your project. With no mention of budget. And a tight deadline. And oh, can you do some spec work while you're at it?
RFP-issuing organizations, I have some bad news for you: Instead of enthusiam over a potential opportunity, your RFP is most likely being met with frustration and reservation. Not to mention a host of questions: Do we actually have a shot at this? Is this project worth the amount of effort it requires to complete the RFP? And, most importantly, is this giant pile of confusing paperwork indicitive of the type of partnership we'll have if we land this work?
Maybe not. But that lengthy, formulaic response you're requesting might scare off a potential partner who would be an excellent fit for your needs. In fact, there are many agencies who refuse to respond to RFPs, and we've certainly considered it ourselves.
Many RFPs refer to development firms as "vendors." While not technically wrong — we are, after all, selling a service — we always strive for partnership with our clients. To us, this means collaboration, mutual respect, and clients who hire us for our technical expertise, not our ability to crank out an application faster and cheaper than anyone else. A development partner will advise you, challenge your ideas when necessary, and work alongside you to achieve a successful end result. A vendor will do the minimum required to collect payment, even if what you've asked them to build isn't in your best interest. Seek partners who have the insight and expertise to make your own ideas even better.
Open your door. Pick up your phone. Schedule a Google Hangout. Find a way to connect personally with the partners you're considering before you ask them to submit a proposal. The role of chemistry in an agency/organization relationship is sorely undervalued in the RFP process. A quick meet and greet or phone call can be just as important to gauging the potential success of a relationship as a proposal. Our (your + my) time is valuable. We no more want to spend time crafting a proposal for a project we have no chance of getting than you want to spend time coming up with a way to diplomatically reject it. That's a lot of work for two organizations without chemistry. Instead, let's agree to shake hands and part amicably before anyone gets too invested.
One of the most common reasons I've heard for issuing an RFP is the ability to easily compare agencies, proposed solutions, and cost. "If everyone answers the same questions in the same format, we can better evaluate them against one another." Well, that's a real creativity killer. We often struggle with how to best explain our approach or convey our ideas within the confines of an RFP format. Assuming that critical thinking and creative problem solving are integral to the success of your application, why not give your prospective partners the chance to show you what they've got? Try asking for proposals in whatever format an agency chooses vs. requiring them to respond in an Excel template. Not only will this give them the freedom to propose a custom solution, it gives you the opportunity to evaluate their creativity and clarity. The agency you choose should be in a league of its own — no comparisons needed.
1. We can't build what you're asking for that budget, but we'd like to refer you to another agency that may be able to work within that range.
2. We think this is a much bigger project than what you've budgeted, but here's what we can do for you with the amount you have earmarked for this effort.
3. Your budget is generous, and we think this can be developed for less. But we've provided a list of extra features you may want to consider if you have the funds available.
Being up front about your budget puts everyone in a better position — you're not stuck reviewing proposals that come nowhere near what you've budgeted, and agencies aren't investing significant effort into a proposal that has no chance of being accepted. Of course, you may not have a budget or any idea how much development will cost. If that's the case, ask! Even if all the agency can do is throw out a "most of our projects start at $X" answer, that gives you a point of reference. If it's too high, speak up. This probably isn't the right partner for you, and that's okay.
For some organizations, RFPs are and will continue to be the defacto method of partner selection. But for those of us with the freedom to opt out — well, let's ditch the pages and pages of RFP busy work and focus on getting to know each other. Who we are and what we do doesn't fit neatly into a spreadsheet. And if it did, would you really want to work with us?
Give your prospective partners the chance to wow you, and the right one will.

By Lynn Jones – Two Jacksonville youth were among 100 out of thousands selected for the 10th Annual Disney Dreamers Academy in partnership with Steve Harvey and Essence magazine. For four intensive days, students are exposed to careers, workshops, celebrities and experiences of their wildest dreams on the Walt Disney Campus. 100 dreamers united at Disney World for five days of deep diving into their career destiny.
Hosted by multi-talented entertainer Steve Harvey, the coveted event was a star studded motivational and inspiring event. Every October over 5,000 students apply for a spot at the Dreamers Academy. Students submit essays detailing their career aspirations; their home life and options for their success to make their dreams come true. Students connect to assist peers with self esteem issues, in addition to connecting to realize their impending individual and professional dreams. The opening ceremony began with 'Dream Big" with Steve Harvey and Disney Executive Tracey Powell and Essence Communications President Michelle Ebanks. Workshops and motivational topics included, "Dreams, Possibilities and Passions," "Each One, Teach One" and most importantly the personalized "Deep Dives" where dreamers are divided into small groups, which are based on their career interests and aspirations expressed in their submitted biographies. Parents and guardians also partook in parent programming workshop to reiterate that it was not too late to reinstate their dreams and the adversities of raising a millennial dreamer.
This year accepted dreamers were Jacksonville Ribault High School sophomore student Jordan Mills and Bishop Kenny High school junior student Christopher Young. Dreamer Jordan Mills is a mentee of the Jacksonville Free Press. Jordan has had the opportunity to shadow staff on media tours and film celebrity interviews to acquire a heads up on his dream of becoming a screen writer and filmmaker. After applying in 2015 and denied entry, Jordan reapplied in 2016 and was accepted into the class of 2017. Dreamer Christopher Young, whose brother Matthew Young was a 2014 Dreamers Academy graduate, was the catalyst and motivator for his brother to begin the Disney Dreamer journey. Christopher's dream is to become a cinematographer to create and produce films and documentaries.
The Dreamers Academy commencement finale ceremony is where dreamers graduate and receive awards. This year host Steve Harvey praised students for taking notes and being attentive to their dreams, goals and aspirations. Surprise guest included Patti Labelle belting out the tunes to Somewhere Over the Rainbow and broadcast journalist T.J. Holmes who spoke to dreamers on his achievements and his failures. "You have to be here to see it and believe it. I'm even more excited to achieve my dreams. My mom, my mentors have prepared me for this moment and with the advice of Steve Harvey and the dreamers in my class, I'm more than ready," said Dreamer Jordan Mills.

Alexandr Dolgopolov (anciennement Oleksandr Dolgopolov Jr., en ), né le  à Kiev (alors en URSS), est un joueur de tennis professionnel ukrainien.

Il est droitier et sa surface de prédilection est la terre battue.En 2011, il se fait connaître du grand public en atteignant les quarts de finale de l'Open d'Australie, après avoir éliminé Jo-Wilfried Tsonga et Robin Söderling.

Il met un terme à sa carrière en mai 2021 .

Biographie
Alexandr Dolgopolov est né le , à Kiev en Ukraine. Son père, Oleksandr Dolgopolov est un ancien joueur de tennis professionnel. Sa mère, Elena, est une ancienne gymnaste qui a remporté une médaille d'or et une médaille d'argent aux championnats d'Europe. Il a également une sœur cadette nommée Maria. À sa naissance, son père était l'entraîneur d'Andreï Medvedev. Pendant son enfance, sa famille s'installe à New York aux États-Unis. Il a commencé le tennis à l'âge de trois ans. Il a tout d'abord été entraîné par son père. Dans son enfance, Alexandr a pu jouer avec Boris Becker, Andreï Medvedev ou encore Andre Agassi. Depuis 2009, il est entraîné par l'Australien Jack Reader. Ensemble, ils ont réussi à remonter plus de  au classement ATP en moins d'un an. Ses coups sont devenus plus agressifs sur surface dure. Dans le passé, il préférait jouer sur terre battue afin de préserver ses genoux. Sa croissance terminée, il est en mesure de rivaliser sur les courts en dur.

Il parle couramment l'anglais et le russe.

Problèmes de santé
Alexandr Dolgopolov souffre d'un trouble héréditaire appelé le syndrome de Gilbert, qui affecte le foie et le sang. Cela provoque souvent de la fatigue. Son état peut s'aggraver quand il doit faire de longs voyages entraînant des décalages horaires. Des injections médicamenteuses et un régime surveillé lui permettent de se remettre en forme.

Caractéristiques de son jeu
Alexandr Dolgopolov a un style de jeu peu orthodoxe mais qui s'adapte à toutes les surfaces.Son coup de prédilection est l'amorti qu'il utilise énormément, notamment sur terre battue, rendant la puissance et l'intensité des échanges très sporadiques, déstabilisant ses adversaires en les obligeant à parcourir le terrain très régulièrement. Il peut jouer en contre en cas de besoin mais peut aussi être très agressif. Son service a une cadence très rapide car frappé à balle montante, à la manière d'un Roscoe Tanner, ce qui lui permet de dépasser sans problème les  et de réaliser de nombreux aces ( scoreur en 2011 avec 559 aces) malgré sa petite taille. Il utilise un lift en coup droit unique qui lui permet de placer ses adversaires en dehors du terrain. Son revers est généralement lifté et frappé à deux mains mais il utilise souvent un slice d'une seule main. Il n'a pas peur de venir au filet pour finir les points et il volleye assez bien. Certains ont comparé son style à celui de Roger Federer, mais le jeu inhabituel de l'Ukrainien a le plus souvent été comparé à celui d'Andy Murray parmi les principaux joueurs de tennis. Il a aussi été comparé au Français Fabrice Santoro.

Ses points forts sont le revers à la fois puissant et précis et ses déplacements rapides et efficaces. Il possède également un service puissant frappé avec balle montante et un excellent retour de service. Robin Söderling a dit de lui : « C'est un excellent joueur. Il a un très bon revers, il bouge bien et défend très bien. C'est un grand contreur ». De plus, selon Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Dolgopolov est un joueur drôle, créatif et imprévisible.

Carrière
Alexandr Dolgopolov a fait ses débuts sur le circuit ATP en septembre 2006 à l'Open de Roumanie après être sorti des qualifications. Il perd au premier tour face au Belge Christophe Rochus. Il a également fait partie de l'Équipe d'Ukraine de Coupe Davis dans le match contre la Grande-Bretagne, où il a été battu par Andy Murray.

Afin d'être moins influencé par son père et ainsi pouvoir développer son tennis à sa façon, il décide en 2009, à l'âge de vingt ans, de se séparer de son père en tant qu'entraîneur. Il est remplacé par l'Australien Jack Reader.

2010

Alexandr Dolgopolov fait une percée sur le circuit ATP au cours de l'année 2010. Il atteint notamment les finales de trois tournois challenger sur terre battue au printemps (Tanger, Meknès, Marrakech), les demi-finales du tournoi d'Eastbourne, perdue contre Michaël Llodra (3-6, 5-7) et de l'Heilbronn Open perdue contre Michael Berrer (3-6, 2-6), ainsi que le troisième tour de Roland-Garros battu par Nicolás Almagro (6-3, 6-3, 6-4). Cette première partie de saison lui permet de rentrer pour la première fois dans le top 50 mondial.

2011 : 1/4 de finale à l'Open d'Australie et meilleur classement de fin de saison

En 2011, Alexandr Dolgopolov se fait sortir au deuxième tour du tournoi de Brisbane par Andy Roddick (4-6, 1-6),  mondial. Il atteint ensuite les quarts de finale du tournoi de Sydney, où il perd face au futur vainqueur Gilles Simon (4-6, 3-6).

Il fait ensuite sensation à l'Open d'Australie, où il élimine successivement Mikhail Kukushkin (6-3, 6-2, 6-4), Benjamin Becker (6-3, 6-0, 3-6, 7-6), puis surtout Jo-Wilfried Tsonga en seizième de finale (3-6, 6-3, 3-6, 6-1, 6-1)  mondial alors mené deux manches à une, et Robin Söderling en huitième de finale, en cinq sets (1-6, 6-3, 6-1, 4-6, 6-2) en seulement 2 h 36 de jeu. C'est la première fois qu'il bat un joueur du top 10 mondial, en la personne de Robin Söderling, alors quatrième joueur mondial. C'est aussi la première fois qu'il atteint les quarts de finale d'un tournoi du Grand Chelem. Cependant, cette formidable série se termine à ce stade contre Andy Murray  mondial, (5-7, 3-6, 7-6, 3-6) en un peu plus de trois heures dans un match où Dolgopolov fera plus que rivaliser avec le Britannique. À l'issue de ce tournoi, il atteint le  mondial.

Dolgopolov se rend ensuite sur les terres battues d'Amérique latine. Lors de l'Open du Brésil à Costa do Sauípe, il est tête de série . Il se défait au deuxième tour de Rubén Ramírez Hidalgo, puis de Potito Starace en quart de finale. En demi-finale, il domine le joueur local Ricardo Mello sur le score de 6-2, 6-1. Lors de sa première finale sur le circuit ATP, il affronte l'Espagnol Nicolás Almagro, face auquel il s'incline sur le score de 3-6, 6-7. Grâce à cette finale, il atteint le  mondial. Dolgopolov joue par la suite au tournoi de Buenos Aires, où il s'incline dès le premier tour face à José Acasuso en deux sets. Ce tournoi lui permet, tout de même, d'atteindre les demi-finales en double pour la première fois de sa carrière. Il participe ensuite à l'Open du Mexique à Acapulco en tant que sixième tête de série. Au premier tour, il élimine le Chilien Paul Capdeville (7-5, 6-2). Il se défait par la suite de son partenaire de double Carlos Berlocq sur le score de 6-4, 6-1. Il atteint les demi-finales en se débarrassant du Suisse Stanislas Wawrinka, tête de série  (6-4, 7-6).

Dolgopolov se présente au premier Masters 1000 de la saison au Masters d'Indian Wells. En tant que tête de série , il ne fait ses débuts dans le tournoi qu'au second tour, où il se défait du Roumain Victor Hănescu 6-4, 6-4. Au troisième tour, il s'incline au profit de l'Argentin Juan Martín del Potro. Lors de ce tournoi, il participe également au tournoi du double avec Xavier Malisse. Ils se défont successivement de la paire Tomáš Berdych/Janko Tipsarević sur le score de 4-6, 6-4, 10-8, des têtes de série et  mondiaux Mike et Bob Bryan 7-5, 7-6, 10-8, puis de Jamie et Andy Murray sur le score de 6-7, 6-3, 10-8. En demi-finale, ils dominent la paire Rohan Bopanna/Aisam-Ul-Haq Qureshi (3-6, 6-3, 10-8), ce qui permet à Dolgopolov d'atteindre sa première finale de double. En finale, ils affrontent les médaillés olympiques des Jeux de Pékin, Roger Federer et Stanislas Wawrinka. Ils remportent la finale 6-4, 6-7, 10-7, ce qui permet à Dolgopolov de soulever son premier trophée de double. Dolgopolov continue sur sa lancée lors du Masters de Miami, où il atteint les huitièmes de finale en éliminant consécutivement l'Italien Andreas Seppi sur abandon et le Français Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (6-7, 6-4, 7-5). Il se fait dominer ensuite par le  mondial Rafael Nadal (1-6, 2-6).

Dolgopolov connaît un démarrage décevant sur terre battue, en essuyant quatre défaites consécutives au premier tour. Il est battu lors du Masters de Monte-Carlo par Ernests Gulbis (1-6, 4-6) puis perd contre Nikolay Davydenko au Barcelone Open Banco Sabadell, (4-6, 6-7) et par Santiago Giraldo au Masters de Madrid, (1-6, 5-7). Sa quatrième défaite consécutive sur terre battue a lieu lors au Masters de Rome, éliminé sur le score de (3-6, 3-6) par l'Italien Potito Starace.

Il perd le match (6-7, 4-6, 2-6) après un tie-break serré dans le premier set (14-16), auteur de 25 coups gagnants pour 44 fautes directes.

Il a ensuite joué à Metz lors de l'Open de Moselle où il est exempté de premier tour. Il défait Márcos Baghdatís lors de son premier match (6-7, 7-5, 6-3). Il remporte son quart de finale face à Xavier Malisse qui se retire au début du second set (6-3, 1-0). En demi-finale, il perd face au futur vainqueur du tournoi Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (4-6, 4-6).

Puis à Acapulco il arrive en demi-finales, après une bonne victoire contre Ivo Karlović, mais perd contre Kevin Anderson (1-6, 7-5, 4-6).

Au Masters d'Indian Wells, il réussit l'exploit de battre le tenant du titre Rafael Nadal  mondial, au  (6-3, 3-6, 7-6). Il devient ainsi le premier Ukrainien de l'histoire à battre un numéro 1 mondial de tennis. Il s'impose ensuite face à Fabio Fognini (6-2, 6-4)  mondial et Milos Raonic  mondial, (6-3, 6-4) en 1 h 20 et atteint le dernier carré, une première pour lui dans un tournoi de cette catégorie. Il s'incline finalement en demi-finale face au  mondial, Roger Federer (3-6, 1-6) en tout juste une heure de jeu.

Il atteint les quarts de finale du Masters de Miami en battant notamment le 3 mondial Stanislas Wawrinka (6-4, 3-6, 6-1). Il est finalement battu par le  mondial, Tomáš Berdych (4-6, 6-7) en 1 h 45.

Sa saison sur terre battue est plus compliquée, avec notamment une défaite au deuxième tour du Masters 1000 de Madrid face au Letton Ernests Gulbis (3-6, 4-6) (futur demi-finaliste à Roland-Garros) et au premier tour du Masters 1000 de Rome face à Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (3-6, 6-7).

Enfin à Wimbledon, il perd au second tour contre le géant croate Ivo Karlović après un énorme match (7-5, 3-6, 4-6, 7-6, 11-13).

Au Masters de Cincinnati, sorti des qualifications, il réussit à se qualifier pour les demi-finales. C'est la deuxième fois qu'il atteint ce stade dans un Masters 1000. Bénéficiant d'un forfait, il est exempté de premier tour. Au second tour, il bat facilement Bernard Tomic (6-4, 6-1). En huitième, il vient à bout de Jerzy Janowicz (6-3, 3-6, 6-4) grâce à un très bon pourcentage de premières balles dans le premier set. Il affronte en quart le Tchèque Tomáš Berdych,  mondial, qu'il n'a jamais battu en trois confrontations. Il réalise cependant un excellent match avec un très bon pourcentage de premières balles et bénéficie aussi des fautes directes de son adversaire. Finalement, il l'emporte 6-4, 6-2 en 1 h 15 de jeu tout en maîtrise, se qualifiant ainsi pour les demi-finales avec comme futur adversaire le 1 mondial Novak Djokovic. Il s'y incline après avoir pourtant remporté le premier set et poussé le Serbe au tie-break dans le second (6-4, 6-7, 2-6) en deux heures vingt d'un combat intense où il réalise 36 coups gagnants, soit 22 de plus que son adversaire, mais commet trop de fautes.

TRIPAWDS: Home to 13658 Members and 1543 Blogs.
Hi everyone! This is the story about my girl Lady. I adopted Lady from SPCA International. Lady is a retired working dog worked in Iraq. While she always found everything she was looking for in her tests, she stopped really wanting to work – "she lost the will to work". She continuously looked for shade and would rather be playing then actually working. So the kennel master of the company she was working for decided it was best that she become a pet. SPCA International was able to relocate her from Iraq to Michigan where she now lives. I am so thankful to SPCAI and Terry Crisp for allowing me to adopt Lady. She is such an amazing girl!
She is such a fun dog! She loves to play ball and always kicks the ball to you. You can even ask her to kick it to you and she will!
I currently and have had for the past 2 months then feeding Lady Ziwi Peak, I add coconut oil, black seed oil, CBD oil, Golden Paste, and other supplements to help try to eliminate the cancer as much as possible. Unfortunately this did not work, I had just started the ketogenic diet and supplements and the cancer was too aggressive. She ended up having a very large tumor, close to the size of two of my fists put together, and was taken into surgery very quickly after her ultrasound and x-rays exams were completed. The tumor doubled in size in less than a week. It had exploded twice, once on the morning before surgery.
I am extremely thankful to my family for their support and to Lisa and Rambo of Gizmo's Gift for their continued support of Lady and retired working dogs like her!

Trump spokeswoman says Obama aides left behind mean notes

(AP Photo/Andrew Harnik)
WASHINGTON (AP) — White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham said Tuesday that Obama administration aides left behind taunting notes for incoming Trump officials when they handed over their offices in 2017. Numerous Obama aides denounced the accusation as fiction.
"We came into the White House. I'll tell you something, every office was filled with Obama books and we had notes left behind that said 'you will fail,' 'you aren't going to make it,'" Grisham told conservative radio show host John Fredericks in an interview Tuesday.
Grisham later backtracked and said the nasty notes were left only in one part of the White House that houses press operations.
Some high-profile Obama administration officials flatly denied the claim, including former national security adviser Susan Rice.
"This is a bald faced lie," Rice wrote on Twitter.
Grisham's complaint came as House Democrats held a third day of public impeachment hearings.
Obama speechwriter Cody Keenan tweeted that he left behind an iPhone charger, but that "nobody left unimaginative notes written at a sixth-grade level."
"I mean, if they read the 'how to do your job' memos and briefing books we actually left, they'd at least know how to write a coherent speech, vet their appointees, and maybe fewer of them would be indicted or heading to jail," Keenan jabbed.
Another Obama speechwriter, Jon Favreau, and Obama senior adviser Valerie Jarrett also pushed back against Grisham's claim.
Grisham, who first worked as an adviser to first lady Melania Trump, said after the radio interview that she found a "lovely note" from her predecessor in the East Wing.
"I was talking specifically (and honestly) about our experience in the lower press office – nowhere else," Grisham said. "I don't know why everyone is so sensitive. At the time we saw it as kind of a prank, and something that always happened. We were so busy trying to learn where the bathrooms were and how to turn on the lights, it wasn't that big of a deal."
Grisham's predecessor in the East Wing posted on social media the note she left behind for Grisham.
"Welcome to the small family of White House staffers, past and present," Joanna Rosholm wrote. "The bond we all share transcends politics."
Pranks or mean jabs have certainly happened in the past.
Aides in the George W. Bush administration reported inheriting government computers from the Bill Clinton administration with missing "W" keys and finding Gore presidential campaign stickers affixed to government property.
But Obama officials insisted they knew of no mean-spirited hijinks.
Rice wrote in "Tough Love" that she left behind an encouraging note for her Trump administration successor, Michael Flynn.
"On a White House stationery card, I reiterate my best wishes for his success in a job so crucial to the nation's security. I offered to help him, if ever I could," Rice wrote.

Fading Cardinals search for answers as losses mount
GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Arizona's late-season fade is starting to feel like a full-blown collapse.
The Cardinals failed to clinch a playoff spot for the third straight week after a 22-16 loss to the banged-up Indianapolis Colts, who were missing arguably their best defensive player and four starting offensive linemen.
After a 7-0 record to start the season, the Cardinals are just 3-5.
The mistakes started early Saturday and piled up in a brutal first half: Kicker Matt Prater missed a long field goal and an extra point. The offense had a turnover on downs and gave up a safety when quarterback Kyler Murray couldn't handle a low snap. Arizona was called for seven penalties before the break and 11 for the game.
"At any level of football, you can't do those things," Murray said. "Right now, we are pretty much killing ourselves."
It's the second year in a row the Cardinals have had a late-season fade. They started the 2020 season with a 6-3 record but closed with a 2-5 mark to miss the playoffs for a fifth straight season. The comparisons are inevitable and running back Chase Edmonds knows that the criticism is coming.
"Right now, we are just in a tough spot," Edmonds said. "We've got to band together, we've got to get together, stay one as a family. We know what is going to come next with the noise."
The good news for the Cardinals is they'll almost certainly make the playoffs even if they lose their final two games of the season against the Cowboys and Seahawks. There's a myriad of ways for Arizona to back into the bracket, even by finishing 10-7.
That's little solace for a team that looked like one of the NFL's best a couple months ago.
"All you have to do is get in, that is all you got to do," Murray said. "But at the end of the day we don't want to get in the way we are playing. We want to go in playing good, feeling good about ourselves."
There have been some injuries that have undoubtedly hurt. Three-time Defensive Player of the Year J.J. Watt has a shoulder injury that will likely keep him out for the rest of the year. Three-time All-Pro receiver DeAndre Hopkins is also likely out for the rest of the regular season because of a sprained knee.
"I think everybody has to focus on their job," Cardinals coach Kliff Kingsbury said. "Some of the guys out … guys are trying to do too much at times and we've got to take it one play at a time, reset and do it again."
The Colts — and just about anyone else in this COVID-19 filled season — won't have much sympathy for the Cardinals. Indianapolis found out hours before the game that 2020 All-Pro linebacker Darius Leonard and two others had tested positive for the virus. They were missing four starting offensive linemen and their starting tight end by the end of the first half because of injuries.
Yet the Colts still found a win.
That's at least partly because the Cardinals keep finding ways to lose.
Kingsbury is 0-5 with the Cardinals when they've had a chance to clinch a playoff spot.
"The thing about it is it's fixable," Murray said. "We just have to look ourselves in the mirror and stop making these mistakes because that game was very winnable. Good teams don't do that."

Truth About Test Optional
When is the Best Time to Take the SAT or ACT?
The conventional testing paradigm suggests that teens should take the SAT or ACT at the end of junior year and again, if needed, at the beginning of senior year. Experience shows, however, that today's high school students have far too much on their plates to follow a default testing strategy that may conflict with other priorities. Instead, the best time for a high schooler to take the SAT or ACT is as early in junior year as makes sense based on a student's goals and activities.
Earning an optimal score on the SAT or ACT requires preparation and focus, which means that nobody should try to test while studying for APs or in the midst of an important sport or activity. Don't plan to test during sports seasons, performance rehearsals, or the weekend of prom… it rarely works out! Proactive students test—and earn their target scores—during every stage of junior year.
One concern about this testing strategy raises the issue of Algebra 2. Students on an honors track may take Algebra 2 before 11th grade, but the regular track at most public schools usually schedules that level of math for junior year. This may not present the problem you think; students who aren't taking honors math don't expect perfect scores in SAT or ACT math anyway. Those students are likely to hit their expected targets with the math they've already learned, assuming they test when they are best positioned to focus and prepare effectively.
When are the SAT and ACT offered in a year?
How many official tests should a student take?
How much time is needed to prepare for the SAT or ACT?

Is Bear Stearns Just The Tip of the Iceberg? / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Anthony_Cherniawski
The Chicago Trib's headline says it all. " Hedge funds' mortgage woes could spread ." "Investors following the near-collapse of two hedge funds managed by Bear Stearns Cos. might be a little bit like a homeowner watching the house down the block catch fire: It's far enough away to think there's no immediate threat, but you still need to care about what the embers could do to your own roof.
The worry is the same on Wall Street, where bankers are anxiously watching to see if the hemorrhaging at Bear Stearns will spread elsewhere." Read full article... Read full article...
Dow Jones Double Top - Important Steps to Take Now! / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
By: Money_and_Markets
Larry Edelson writes: You're at a unique crossroads. We've had almost four years of relative calm in the financial markets. Corporate earnings have rebounded from their lows in 2003 and the depths of the 2000 - 2001 stock market collapse. There have been no terror attacks on U.S. soil. Interest rates have remained artificially low.
But now, even as foreign economies continue to gather strength, the U.S. economy's second breath — as I call it — is ending.

Housing Market Mortgage Meltdown and the Hedge Fund Collapse / Stock-Markets / Financial Crash
Martin Weiss writes: For many months, Mike Larson has been warning you about a meltdown in America's vast new market for home mortgages.
Now that meltdown is here.
He told you home sales and prices would fall, and they did.
He told you that American homeowners would default on their mortgage payments in record numbers, and they have.
He warned this would shake Wall Street to its core. Now it is.
The evidence is ubiquitous and indisputable:

Q: how to create an angular directive to load jquery? i want to use jSignature jquery plugin with my mvc+angular js project,but i am unable to load the jquery in the project since i dont have a proper directive to load it,help is needed.
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.9.0/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.signature.js"></script>
<script>
    $(function () {
        $('#sig').signature();
        $('#clear').click(function () {
            $('#sig').signature('clear');
        });
        $('#json').click(function () {
            alert($('#sig').signature('toJSON'));
        });
        $('#svg').click(function () {
            alert($('#sig').signature('toSVG'));
        });
    });
</script>
</head>
<body>

this is the code i used alongside the jquery plugin,but a directive is required to properly load the jquery,some help is needed to write the directive?

A: You don't need a directive to load jQuery. Just include jQuery before including AngularJS, angular will use jQuery instead of jQlite.

A: The best practice to include third party js code is to create a directive that wraps code in the link function:
app.directive('myDir', function() {
  return {
    link:link
  };

  function link($scope, $element, $attr){

      (function ($) {
        $('#sig').signature();
        $('#clear').click(function () {
            $('#sig').signature('clear');
        });
        $('#json').click(function () {
            alert($('#sig').signature('toJSON'));
        });
        $('#svg').click(function () {
            alert($('#sig').signature('toSVG'));
        });
      }(jQuery));
  });

});

And finally include the directive where needed.

This is Elvis tribute is as close to the real 'King' as you can possibly be
Steve Michaels has to be seen to be believed
Elvis is back as The King of rock and roll embarks on a nationwide tour fronted by the eerily international tribute artist Steve Michaels.
The Canadian masters Elvis' deep southern accent as he takes us on a throwback journey to the two largest, most successful concerts of his short life.
It was hard not to feel ourselves as the original audience members of his famous '68 Comeback Special.
This Is Elvis, which runs at Stoke's Regent Theatre until Saturday, March 31, starts with the singer's comeback special at the NBC Studios with fan favourites Trouble, Guitar Man, rock and roll classics such as Hound Dog, Heartbreak Hotel, along with slower tracks such as Memories and Love Me Tender.

It is incredible to see Steve Michaels perform. His look and sound is as perfect as if Elvis was reborn and standing in front of us.
The show also proves that Elvis is timeless, bringing his music to adoring fans and also to a whole new generation.
Twelve months on from the phenomenal comeback special, the show sees 'Elvis' blows us all away with his now-famous four-week 57-show run at the International Hotel, in Las Vegas.
This is arguably the best tribute act in the world (Image: Pamela Raith Photography)
To cram as many songs as possible into one musical, the show goes behind the scenes for a peep into the rehearsal room just hours before his opening night.
Here, we see for the first time the backing singers and are reminded of Elvis' roots and just how soulful he once was, performing the classic Oh Happy Day and Bridge Over Troubled Water.

However, if you weren't impressed by Act One, Act Two will blow your socks off.
Here we are at the International Hotel and watching his opening night and see Elvis making history.
It is very obviously based on the original events of the performance, interacting with the audience and his performers, as well as belting out his most popular showstoppers.

Get on your feet for Viva Las Vegas, Blue Suede Shoes, A Big Hunk o' Love and If I can Dream. You will not believe how close Steve Michaels is to the real thing.
Some may scoff at tribute acts. There is a wide variety of them who believe that by simply donning a wig and wearing the jumpsuit that they are Elvis but Steve Michaels goes so much further.
Internationally-renowned and award-winning, his masterful renditions of The King and his music have garnered him worldwide fame, and appearances alongside Elvis' original backing group, the Jordanaires, and the Sweet Inspirations, along with Elvis' legendary drummer DJ Fontana and bassist Jerry Scheff.

This Is Elvis recreates all the drama leading up to the comeback special in '68, as well as staging the monumental concert.
Steve Michaels has to be seen to be believed and any Elvis fan is urged to see this man in action. He is not only an excellent singer, he is as close to Elvis as we can ever possibly be.
This is Elvis run at Stoke's Regent Theatre until Saturday, March 31.
