Car tax evasion still at record levels
Stacey Mitchell
There are as many as 634,000 untaxed vehicles on the road in the UK, according to new figures from the Department for Transport – that's 1.6% of all UK traffic.
The number of unlicensed vehicles in the UK has fallen since the last survey in 2017, when 755,000 vehicles were found to be untaxed. However this rate is still significantly higher than when motorists were required to have paper tax discs in their vehicles.
The last full year motorists had to display paper tax discs in their cars was 2013, when the figure was just 0.6%. The huge increase in tax evasion after the system was digitised in 2014 is shown below.
Estimated VED evasion rate in Britain (2007-19)
Of all the untaxed cars found by the 2019 survey:
43% were 10 or more years old
9% were less than two years old
54% were untaxed for two months or less
36% had changed hands since October 2018
It's thought the potential lost revenue from these missed tax payments could amount to £94 million, which is a much greater figure than the £14 million the DVLA hoped to save by moving the system online. However, there's still a chance some of this total could be reclaimed at a later date through penalty payments.
If you're caught without valid car tax and your vehicle hasn't been registered SORN, you'll receive a letter and fine of £80, but you won't get any points on your licence. If you're not the registered keeper of the vehicle you're driving, the letter and fine will go to their address.

Here hear the battle of Basgo
written by Vinayak Razdan Filed under: A Kashmiri Tourist in Ladakh, History, Ladakh
View of plans of Basgo (Bazgu) village with Zangla castle at top of a hill, about 4 miles further of Nimo, about 42 kilometer west of Leh.
Here was fought the battle of Basgo that ended with Ladakh coming under to sphere of Mughal influence.
Zangla Castle
In the middle of 17th century, Tibet was under the control of Mongol Gushi Khan who supported the 5th Dalai Lama to take control of the region that was seeing quarrels between different sects of Buddhism. This is the Dalai (meaning 'Ocean' in Mongolian) who built Potala (Skrt. Potalaka meaning 'celestial residence') in Lhasa.
Ladakh at the time was under a new Dynasty, Namgyal who had defeated the king of Leh and moved the capital to Basgo. In a dispute between Tibet and Bhutan, Namgyals of Ladakh, given the head of their sect was based in Bhutan, decided to support Bhutan. In return, in the Dalai Lama of Tibet sent Mongol and Tibetan forces on an expedition to Ladakh under one warrior monk Lama Sang (Ganden Tshewangpel Sangpo of Ganden (Skrt. Tushita)) monastery). Tibetans forces also had the support of Kehari Singh (1639-1696) of Bushar state in upper Satluj Valley as he wanted to recover some part of Kinnaur area which had been earlier claimed by Namgyas.
When Gyalpo Delek Namgyal (1640(5)-1680 A.D) of Ladakh found Tibetan-Mongols on his heel, from Basgo he wrote for help to Kashmir. Kashmir at the time was under Mughal governor Ibrahim Khan (reign: 1678-1885) son of famous Kurdish administrator Ali Mardan Khan. Already, during the time of Shah Jahan, Namgyals and their territorial ambitions in Trans-Himalayas were not unnoticed by the Mughal court. But, Namgyals on being notified, did tender submission to Mughal court. Now, that Namgyals needed help, they looked to Mughals.
Ibrahim Khan forwarded the request to Mugal Emperor Aurangzeb at Aurangabad (August Hermann Francke mistakenly mentions 'bigot' Shah Jahan). Mughal historian Mir Izzet Ullah (1812) mentions an army of six lakh men from Kashmir was sent and lead by Ibrahim Khan's son Fidai Khan (Alexander Cunningham pegs the number at a more believable 6000, Francke mistakenly gives the name as Fateh Khan). In return for this help, Delek was to become Muslim and promise to give Kashmir monopoly over the pashmina trade.
Mughal crossed the Indus at Khalatsi (Khalatse) on two wooden bridges and marched to Bargu village. Bidhi Singh of Kullu Kingdom (Lahul and Kullu tributary were tributary of Ladakh since AD 1125-50 ) supported Mughals but plundered Zanskar valley nevertheless when he entered it.
The Mongols had taken position on the plain of Jargyal between Bazgu and Nemo. In the battle that ensured, the Tibet-Mongol were defeated and chased till Spituk.
After the war, Ladakhi source do not mention the conversion of Namgyal to Islam, but Mughal sources do. As was the norm of the time, Fidai Khan took some of the royal family members to Kashmir as 'hostages' while Delek Namgyal changed his name to Akbat Mahmud Khan.
However, after the Mughals returned to Kashmir, the Mongols again came in 1684 and the king of Ladakh had to submit and pay yearly tribute to Tibet. Dalai Lama wasn't pleased with the interference of foreigners in Himalayas. A peace treaty was signed between Tibet and Ladakh which ensured Tibet will never attack Ladakh and among other things ensured Kashmiri Pashmina traders will only be allowed till Spituk.
However, after the battle of Basgo, Ladakh continued to remain in sphere of Mughals, then Durranis, Sikhs and the Dogras.
Based on info. in 'Buddhist Western Himalaya: A politico-religious history' by O.C. Handa. According to the author, the exact year of the event is much disputed and is given as 1650 by Francke, 1680 by Hutchison and Vogel and 1687 by Cunningham. This was also the time when first mosque was erected in Leh in 1699.
The Zangla castle was where stayed the famous Hungarian Alexander Csoma de Kőrös (1784-1842) and brought out the first Tibetan-English dictionary and grammar book. The castle was renovated by a Hungarian team in around 2006.

En anàlisi matemàtica una funció  es diu que és uniformement contínua si petits canvis en el valor de  produeixen petits canvis en el valor de la funció (continuïtat) i la grandària dels canvis en  depèn únicament de la grandària dels canvis en  però no del valor de  (uniforme).

Definició
Donats dos espais mètrics  i , i  llavors una funció  es diu uniformement contínua en  si per a qualsevol nombre real  existeix  tal que , implica que  per a tot .

Una funció  és uniformement contínua en un interval  si per a tot  existeix algun  tal que per a tot  es compleix que si , llavors .

A diferència de la continuïtat, on el valor de  depèn del punt , en les funcions uniformement contínues, no.

Notem que el concepte de continuïtat uniforme fa referència sempre a un conjunt de punts. Que una funció sigui uniformement contínua en un conjunt o no depèn tant de la funció com del conjunt. La funció  no és uniformement contínua a , però sí que ho és a .

Exemples
 La funció  amb  és contínua però no uniformement contínua.
 La funció  és uniformement contínua en l'interval [0,1].
 Tot polinomi  de grau major o igual que u és uniformement continu en un interval tancat.

Resultats
 De la definició es dedueix que tota funció uniformement contínua és contínua. El contrari (tota funció contínua és uniformement contínua) no és cert.
Exemple: Si  i .  és contínua i no és uniformement contínua. No obstant això, es verifica que:"Si  és un espai mètric compacte i  un espai mètric, llavors tota funció contínua  és uniformement contínua. En particular, tota funció contínua sobre un interval tancat i fitat és uniformement contínua en aquest interval." (Teorema de Heine-Cantor)
 Si  és una successió de Cauchy continguda en el domini de  (no necessàriament convergent) i  és una funció uniformement contínua, llavors  també és una successió de Cauchy.
 Tota funció Lipschitz contínua és uniformement contínua.

African American Children's Movies
By Jennifer L. Betts
The Nutty Professor starring Eddie Murphy
While Hollywood represented African American children poorly, if at all, in the early days of American cinema, the last 30 years has seen a significant improvement. No longer do these kids have such controversial characters as Uncle Remus, the happy-go-lucky slave in Disney's Song of the South, as a so called role model. Genuinely strong, positive African American characters are now appearing more frequently. The following films are excellent examples of just how far Hollywood has come.
Children will enjoy this updated remake of the 1960s-classic released in 1996 starring Eddie Murphy. This movie combines slapstick comedy and satire with a theme that resonates how important it is to love yourself just as you are. This movie was rated PG-13.
Black Baby Names for Boys
African American Family Values
Family Life in the 1920s
In this comedy, the shy, overweight Professor Sherman Klump invents a formula that turns him into the charismatic ladies-man, Buddy Love. For the first time in his life, Sherman experiences what it is like to feel popular and to win the hand of his dream girl, Carla. Buddy tries to take over Sherman's body for good, but by the end, Sherman realizes his inherently good nature is every bit as attractive as Buddy's good looks and manages to withstand a permanent transformation.
Reviews and Praise
Eddie Murphy's superlative performance lifts The Nutty Professor above the tag of just another African American remake of an old classic (Jerry Lewis starred in the '60s original) and into the realm of classic in its own right. As Edward Guffman states in the San Francisco Chronicle, "for his performance alone it's worth seeing." In the film, the iconic comedian plays, sometimes in the same scene, Sherman, Buddy Love, Sherman's parents and Sherman's grandparents. Perhaps it would have been too much to have played his own love interest. That role he left for the beautiful Jada Pinkett.
This is a heartwarming family drama that is enjoyable for all ages. Its theme of love and perseverance shows that your environment does not define who you are. It features a star-studded African American cast including Angela Bassett and Laurence Fishburne. Akeelah and the Bee is rated PG and was released in 2006.
Akeelah and the Bee movie
Just when her tough home life in South L.A. is beginning to affect her behavior at school, 11-year-old Akeelah Anderson surprises herself by winning her school spelling bee. After a further win at the regional contest, she is propelled into the highly competitive world of the National Spelling Bee. Suddenly, on national TV, her view of the world's struggles and triumphs is crystal clear. She knows exactly what she must do.
Akeelah and the Bee is a rarity among African American kids' movies in that it is an original story written by its director Doug Atchison. "The film is a model of how the community can and must support its children with talent," states Marvin X from ChickenBones: A Journal for Literary & Artistic African-American Themes. Additionally, viewers on IMDB liked it enough to rate it 7.5 out of 10.
This animated Disney retelling of the Brother's Grimm Frog Prince story will have your younger children's eyes glued to the screen. Through its memorable jazz numbers and fun animation, this animated classic shows that with a little drive and ambition, you can make your own dreams come true. Directed by Ron Clemens, this 2009 film is rated G.
Set in 1920s New Orleans, a poor young African American dressmaker called Tiana meets a frog that claims he is Prince Naveem of Macedonia. If he kisses her, it will change him back into human form. Tiana does as he asks, but instead of reversing the spell, it turns her into a frog as well. Together, the two of them form an unlikely alliance as they hop around the city looking for the only person who can help them: The Voodoo Preacher.
Awards and Praise
The Princess and the Frog is a rare African American film from Disney in that it is a pure celebration of African American culture. There is an excellent soundtrack by Randy Newman that includes jazz, zydeco, and ragtime and a stellar cast that includes Anika Noni Rose, Oprah Winfrey and Terrance Howard. Judging from the number of awards it won and was nominated for, Disney is reaping the benefits of an African American film solely designed to leave smiles on the faces of all that see it.
For children that enjoy a good sports story, Cool Runnings is a fun, inspirational film. This fictionalized story of the Jamaican bobsled team will show your children that it's not always about winning. Rated PG, Cool Runnings was released in 1999 and directed by Jon Turteltaub.
Cool Runnings movie
After disgracing himself and his country by putting weights in his team's sleigh to help it go faster, US gold medal winning bob sleigh trainer Irving Blitzer moves to Jamaica and relative anonymity. Or so he thinks. A Jamaican sprinter realizes the only way he can live his dream of competing in the Olympics is in the bob sleigh event and persuades Blitzer to come out of retirement to train him and his friends for the next games. They are never likely to win, or even come near, but as you will soon realize in this fun, heartwarming tale, sometimes life really is just about trying your best.
The BBC sum up this film perfectly when they state that, "Unbelievable this all may be but the considerable warmth, humor and persistence of the cast soon have you rooting for these underdogs." Cool Runnings is the kind of likable film that no matter their mood or the occasion, kids will always have the time to watch. The actors that play the Jamaican characters steal the show with their positivity and humor.
With themes of helping others and the power of being positive, Polly shows children how one girl's happiness can thaw a racially divided town. Polly is rated G and was released in 1989.
In this musical TV remake of Disney's Pollyanna, the enthusiasm and love of life of an orphan called Glad Girl brings happiness and a sense of community to a 1950s Alabama town. White or black, young or old, it seems everyone falls in love with this all-singing all-dancing ball of energy.
Polly is an extension of that strangely daring concept in the Cosby Show that portrayed an affluent middle-class African American family living happily in a mixed race neighborhood. It is as one reviewer on Amazon states simply an "Excellent movie about a young girl going to live with her old maid aunt," and, "a very positive portrayal of African American families of that period." Polly has a rating of 95% on Rotten Tomatoes and was popular enough to inspire a sequel called Polly's Coming Home. Its African American female director Debbie Allen was a famous choreographer and star of the movie Fame.
The Meteor Man
This PG rated superhero film sparks the imagination and tickles the funny bone. It illustrates to children that anyone can be a superhero and help clean up their streets. The Meteor Man hit theaters in 1993.
This film stars Robert Townsend (who also directs) as the shy and meek school teacher Jefferson Reed, who like everyone else in his neighborhood cowers to the Golden Lords - a group of peroxide-haired teenagers who terrorize the area. It isn't until he is hit by a meteor that life begins to change for the better. Jefferson is now Meteor Man and with his newfound powers, he can defeat the Golden Lords and bring peace to his people.
If a meteor hitting a shy, meek teacher in a small African American neighborhood is a stretch of the imagination, what would one call a meteor turning that same teacher into an all-conquering superhero? Most probably pure silliness, which as any parent would tell you, is just what their kids crave. As one reviewer states on Rotten Tomatoes: "I found Meteor Man to be funny and inspiring."
Starring Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell, Good Burger is the film version of a Nickelodeon kids comedy sketch popular in the '90s. This movie is rated PG and was directed by Brian Robbins. It was released in 1997.
Good Burger movie
Ed and Dexter's beloved burger stand, the Good Burger, is put under threat when a burger chain store opens across the street. It takes all of their cunning and a special sauce to drive away the store and its horrible owner Kurt.
A great example of what the Washington Post calls the film's "kind of weirdness, buzz and edge that kids love" is the scene where Ed is locked in a padded cell. Instead of sliding to the floor in a state of despair, he shouts and begins to throw himself against the walls. It's great fun, and the kind of energetic, quotable film that kids will annoy you by watching over and over again.
The Wiz
Are you looking for a classic movie that your kids will enjoy? The Wiz is a great choice. With its African American cast and urban setting, The Wiz will demonstrate to children that anyone can rise above their background and other's expectations. Rated G, the film was directed by Sidney Lumet and released in 1978.
To understand the plot of this film, simply imagine The Wizard of Oz adapted for an African American audience. Harlem replaces Kansas, a Kindergarten replaces the farm, a snowstorm replaces the tornado, Is This What Feeling Gets? replaces Somewhere Over Rainbow and the Wiz replaces the Wizard. It has the same characters and storyline as the 1939 blockbuster, but this version is much more upbeat.
The Wiz is not a perfect film (it is rated 5.3 on IMDB) but with a cast including Diana Ross, Michael Jackson, and Richard Pryor, the film won a great deal of love and respect from audiences of all colors. This adaptation of a classic story has gone on to inspire a highly successful Broadway show of the same name. As Spirituality and Practice states, "Its celebration of personhood comes through loud and clear."
The Color of Friendship
Prejudice, racism and acceptance are themes you'll find in this TV-G rated television film that originally aired in 2000. The Color of Friendship is a heartening tale of friendship with a very interesting twist.
The Color of Friendship movie
An African American US congressman with an interest in South African politics invites what he thinks is a black South African child into his family home for the summer. However Mahree Bok, the daughter of a South African policeman, is in fact white and it takes a lot of courage for both sides to accept the other. By the time she has to go home, however, Mahree has become an important part of the family and best friends with the Congressman's daughter, Piper.
In 2000, The Color of Friendship won an Emmy Award for "Outstanding Children's Program" and a Humanitas Award for its script. Probably it should have won at least two others, first for its bravery and second for its educational value. The race issues examined here aren't seen and resolved often, especially in films for children
Selma, Lord, Selma
Based off the book, Selma, Lord, Selma: Girlhood Memories of the Civil Rights Days, written in 1980, this Disney Channel reenactment will provide your pre-teens with an interesting look into the courage behind the civil rights movement. Directed by Charles Burnett, the film first aired in 1999.
In this film, 11-year-olds Sheyan and Rachel are so inspired by Martin Luther King they join him and his followers on the famous voting rights march from Selma to Montgomery. Despite the violence and racism they witness on the way, they remain strong and focused.
The consensus on IMDB was that for pre-teens, Selma, Lord, Selma is a highly educational movie. In particular reviewers praised Clifton Powell's performance as Martin Luther King. "I like how he represented Dr. King," said one reviewer "(R)ight from the beginning he was portrayed as a human being. There was no image of worship or him being on a higher plane. He was a man with a struggle and that was more or less it."
The Future of African American Kids' Movies
There are enough movies on this list to show the steady progression African American cinema has made in the last 30 years. For example, while all African American casts in such films as the '70s film the Wiz were a conscious effort to provide entertainment for African American children, the mixed casts of much later films show a far more relaxed attitude in their portrayal of African American culture. In the near future, parents, African American or otherwise, can look forward to taking their kids to a range of films that merely have to show, rather than having to insist, that African American culture is a central part of the American mainstream.

Southgate explains Oxlade-Chamberlain England plan
Jordan Chamberlain
Follow @Jordan_AC90
Gareth Southgate, quite sensibly, has no plans to rush Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain back into the England set-up.
Ox made his return against Huddersfield on April 26th, and made a cameo on the final day of the season versus Wolves as well – but in total – the midfielder's played 21 minutes all season since rupturing his knee ligaments in the Champions League over a year ago.
Agent of young Turkish GK admits: "Liverpool officials have talked with us"
We don't expect to see Ox in the Final in two weeks' time, although Jurgen Klopp may name him on the bench.
Southgate, and obviously Klopp as well, want the player to get back into match groove during the summer ahead of next term.
"I think when you are recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament injury, you need a period of time to get into more starts, more 90 minutes under his belt and it's an important thing for him that he's managed to get some minutes at Liverpool," the England boss said, cited in the Echo.
"But I think a good pre-season… because what's happened with him, a couple of minor hamstring injuries, is classic when you've been out with a long-term injury.
"We shouldn't be risking him in our games at this stage of his recovery from a serious injury.
"But he's very much in our thoughts for next season."
Ox has had a year of his career taken away from him, but at 25-years-old, he's got his best years ahead of him still.
Klopp thinks he has enormous potential, which we began to see on a regular basis before his injury in 2018.
The thought of Ox and Naby Keita dovetailing ahead of Fabinho in the anchorman spot is a very exciting one, actually.
But there's a European Cup to win first.

(HealthDay News) -- As the number of people around the world with elevated or high blood pressure increases, so do the number of deaths linked to this "silent killer," a new study contends.
An international analysis of nearly 9 million people states that the rate of high blood pressure (hypertension) and elevated blood pressure (prehypertension) jumped between 1990 and 2015 including those receiving home health care services.
"There are almost 900 million people in the world with hypertension, and there are almost 3.5 billion people with elevated blood pressure that doesn't quite meet the definition of hypertension," said study lead author Christopher Murray. He directs the University of Washington's Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation in Seattle.
"Blood pressure is the leading cause of premature death and disability in the world," Murray said.
Blood pressure is made up of two numbers. The top number, called systolic pressure, measures the pressure in the arteries when blood is being pumped from the heart. The bottom number, the diastolic pressure, measures pressure between heartbeats. Blood pressure is expressed in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg).
The study authors said that even systolic blood pressure within what is considered a normal range -- less than 120/80 mm Hg, according to the American Heart Association -- can increase the risk of heart attack and stroke.
According to study co-author Dr. Gregory Roth, the researchers chose to look at blood pressures at 110 to 115 mm Hg -- well below the clinical definition of high blood pressure -- because this is where the risk of high blood pressure begins.
"The definition of hypertension is a systolic pressure greater than 140 mm Hg. However, there is very strong evidence that the risk of having an elevated blood pressure begins above 115 mm Hg," said Roth, an assistant professor of cardiology at the University of Washington in Seattle.
What's lacking is evidence that people with blood pressure between 115 and 140 mm Hg should be taking medications to lower it. There are other ways to control blood pressure, including healthy lifestyle choices and maintaining a normal weight, Roth said.
Murray said some of the factors responsible for the worldwide increase in high blood pressure are unhealthy diets and obesity. In addition, in developing countries, more people are living in cities and getting less physical activity.
Also, the world's population is aging, and blood pressure often increases with age, Murray explained.
"High blood pressure affects a huge number of people, and it's getting worse. And yet, there is effective prevention through lifestyle changes and a wide array of effective medical therapies for managing blood pressure," he said.
One heart expert noted that people don't have normal blood pressure one day and high blood pressure the next.
"The conventional thinking that there is a threshold when one goes from normal blood pressure to high blood pressure is not accurate," said Dr. Mark Creager. He directs the Heart and Vascular Center at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, N.H.
"There's a gradual increase in risks from blood pressures that start much lower than 140 mm Hg. Even people with blood pressure lower than that need to be aware that there is an increased risk," Creager explained.
For the study, the researchers reviewed 844 studies from 154 countries. The studies were published from 1980 to 2015 and included nearly 8.7 million people.
Five countries -- the United States, China, India, Indonesia and Russia -- accounted for more than 50 percent of elevated or high blood pressure cases, according to the study.
The study, funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, was published Jan. 10 in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Almost 1 in 5 Emails from US Senders Failed to Reach the Inbox Last Year
This article is included in these additional categories:
Asia-Pacific | Demographics & Audiences | Digital | Email | Europe & Middle East | Featured | Latin America | North America
Inbox placement rates have declined in the US, with an average of 82% of promotional emails from US senders reaching the inbox in the fourth quarter of 2019, down from 85% during the same quarter of 2018. This is according to Validity's latest annual Email Deliverability Benchmark report [download page], which looks at deliverability across countries.
During this latest year-long period of analysis (spanning Q1 2019 through Q4 2019), 8% of emails landed in the spam folder, while 10% were classified as "missing," in that they never made their way past the initial gateway. Although it's possible that some emails that land in spam folders are read by their intended recipients, previous research from Validity (which acquired Return Path last year) indicates that just 0.02% of emails are marked as not spam.
US Deliverability Slightly Below Par
An average of 83% of emails reached inboxes across the dozens of countries measured during the period of analysis. This is just slightly above the US' average of 82%.
On a regional basis, senders in Europe and the Asia-Pacific fared the best in reaching the inbox, with an average inbox placement of 84% for each region. Notably, in Europe, the Czech Republic and Belgium both had an impressive inbox placement average of 92% in 2019, with the Czech Republic seeing a 12 percentage point increase between Q1 and Q4.
The average rate in North America (the US and Canada), of 83%, was hampered by the US' below-average performance, as Canada boasted an above-average rate of 89%. Although Latin America has struggled in the past, in 2019 it reached the global average of 83%, with Argentina matching Canada's deliverability rate with an average of 89%.
Senders in Switzerland and India both experienced low deliverability rates last year at 67% and 69%, respectively. On the flip side, it was Japan that had the highest placement rate of all the countries analyzed, at a stunning 97%.
The full report can be downloaded here.
About the Data: Findings are based on a "study using a representative sample of more than 2 billion promotional email messages sent to consumers around the world between January 1, 2019, and December 31, 2019. Global and regional statistics are based on performance across more than 140 mailbox providers in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Country statistics are based on a subset of senders whose locations and industry classifications are identifiable."

Thank you so much for stopping by for a peek inside my sewing studio today.
This is an instant gratification sew for beginning sewers to experienced sewers.
to make as a heartfelt gift for the new homeowner or newlyweds.
To start with, the pattern calls for the back piece to be cut larger than the soft and stable.
the extra backing will be folded over to form a self binding.
I used my #BabyLockSashiko 2 machine to stitch a pattern on the backing fabric.
and I used a traditional binding instead of a self binding.
I did the stitching on the back piece before I sewed or cut anything else.
This is optional - you don't have to add anything to your back fabric.
Then I cut the background fabric for the front.
That "bare" strip of soft and stable is where my pieced panel will go.
I laid everything out on the soft and stable before doing any stitching.
The instructions call for nine of the four inch wide pieces.
my strip ended up short, so I had to add a tenth piece.
I probably made an error in cutting or stitching.
If you make, or have made, these placemats please let me know if you used nine or ten pieces.
I would like to share that information with my readers.
I used the guide on my walking foot to keep my rows lined up as I stitched parallel rows of decorative stitching on the front background panels.
but I like the way it looks.
Are you making any changes to your home décor to welcome the new season?
Have a happy sewing week!


The internet has become a crowded environment. Even those operating in highly niche areas may find themselves amongst numerous competitors. Pay-per-click (PPC) marketing, such as Google Ads, Facebook and LinkedIn PPC, has become the most targeted way for businesses to reach their specific audience and stand out.
To make things more difficult, search engines and social media platforms are continually changing their algorithms, demonstrating a preference towards paid ads and posts over unpaid content. Google are pushing organic search results further down the page as they enable more PPC ads and rich snippets to command the lucrative above-the-fold space at the top of your screen. And in January 2018, Facebook announced they would prioritise posts from friends, family and groups over unpaid business posts.
For PPC Management in Melbourne, you won't find many companies with this level of experience.
You're not locked in - all work is performed month-by-month.
To manage privacy and provide a high standard of PPC in Melbourne, we don't outsource your work.
You are a new business or have undergone major rebranding and your website is yet to rank highly in organic search.
You require leads quickly e.g. you are promoting a once-off event or a limited time offer.
You operate in a competitive space and have struggled to stand out from the crowd.
You are seeking highly specific leads e.g. from specific suburbs, age groups, interests, job titles, organisations etc.
Managing a PPC campaign can be difficult if you don't have lots of experience in this space. Without a well-prepared plan a PPC campaign can fail in many ways. Remember, you pay each time someone clicks on your ad! A successful PPC marketing strategy doesn't aim for a high number of clicks. It aims to only receive clicks from those who are ready to purchase your products/services.
Creating highly targeted ads that entice readers to click is important, but that's only the first step. Guiding visitors to a general page such as your home page or product/service menu isn't enough. Landing pages must provide specific solutions to search queries, be congruent with your ads, and guide visitors through an easy purchase step or lead nurturing process.
Google Ads or Social Media?
The main difference between advertising through Google Ads and social media, such as Facebook or LinkedIn, is the circumstances in which your ads are found.
Google Ads targets those who are specifically searching for your products or services. If you know there are people searching for and ready to purchase your products/services, this is a great way to ensure they find you. However if few people are searching for your product/service, particularly if it's something new, this may not be the best place to start.
Facebook and LinkedIn PPC operate a little differently. Users are simply scrolling through their feed looking at their friends and family member's posts when the platform displays your ad. The advantage of social media is the incredibly specific audience targeting which can be implemented. You probably have in mind your ideal customer type - their age, where they live, their job industry/title/company, their favourite television shows, what they read.
You may reach more potential customers by running ads on Google Ads and social media. We conduct research into the feasibility of each option and will recommend the best options for your digital marketing objectives.
Identification of search terms with sufficient monthly search volumes, which are being used by those who wish to purchase your products/services.
Ensuring your ads won't be displayed in searches where you won't gain business. For example, if not implemented correctly, a 'home air conditioning repair' ad could be displayed for a 'car air conditioning repair' search.
Writing your ads in sucha way to entice clicks.
Creating unique landing pages which answer search queries and convert visitors into clients.
Applying best practices to reduce your cost-per-click and ensure ads are displayed above your competitors.
Implement display ads to attract recent website visitors, and visitors of related and relevant websites.
Implement Google Shopping Ads to gain top of page exposure in relevant searches.
Implementing conversion tracking to provide useful information on purchases, form completions and other key events.
Providing monthly reports to keep you informed of the progress. We will discuss the results with you to ensure your ads keep pace with your current business activities.
- Ensuring your ads won't be displayed in social media accounts of those who are unlikely to purchase.
- Creating ads with enticing imagery or video which stops social media users in their tracks.
- Creating unique landing pages or content which is of value to visitors and leads to conversions.
- Implementing conversion tracking to provide useful information on purchases, form completions and other key events.
- Applying best practices to reduceyour cost-per-click.
- Monthly reports to keep you informed of the progress and return on investment.

New bold & ambitious framework to reduce inequities & build back fairer for future generations Institute of Health Equity
Wednesday 30th June, 2021
The UCL Institute of Health Equity (IHE) has published a new framework, which includes new bold and ambitious recommendations on how to reduce health inequities and build back fairer from the COVID-19 pandemic for future generations. The Framework is part of a new Marmot Review and comes as life expectancy falls for everyone across the UK, and health inequities widen, at a cost of £39 billion every year.
The new Review, 'Build Back Fairer in Greater Manchester: Health Equity and Dignified Lives', published 30th June, was commissioned by the Greater Manchester Health and Social Care Partnership. The City Region had a 25% higher COVID-19 death rate than England as a whole in the 13 months to March 2021. This high death rate contributed to a decline in life expectancy in the North West region, which was larger than the average in England. Life expectancy fell in 2020 by 1.6 years for men and 1.2 years for women in the North West compared 1.3 years and 0.9 years, respectively, across England.
Commenting, the IHE's Director, Professor Sir Michael Marmot, said if the government is serious about levelling up health inequities, equity of health and wellbeing must be at the heart of government and business strategy rather narrow economic goals.
Read the full press release which includes:
Comments from both UCL IHE Director, Prof. Michael Marmot and Mayor of Greater Manchester, Andy Burnham

Constructor theory is a proposal for a new mode of explanation in fundamental physics in the language of ergodic theory, developed  by physicists David Deutsch and Chiara Marletto, at the University of Oxford, since 2012. Constructor theory expresses physical laws exclusively in terms of which physical transformations, or tasks, are possible versus which are impossible, and why. By allowing such counterfactual statements into fundamental physics, it allows new physical laws to be expressed, such as the constructor theory of information.

Overview
The fundamental elements of the theory are tasks: the abstract specifications of transformations as input–output pairs of attributes. A task is impossible if there is a law of physics that forbids its being performed with arbitrarily high accuracy, and possible otherwise. When it is possible, a constructor for it can be built, again with arbitrary accuracy and reliability. A constructor is an entity that can cause the task to occur while retaining the ability to cause it again. Examples of constructors include a heat engine (a thermodynamic constructor), a catalyst (a chemical constructor) or a computer program controlling an automated factory (an example of a programmable constructor).

The theory was developed by physicists David Deutsch and Chiara Marletto. It draws together ideas from diverse areas, including thermodynamics, statistical mechanics, information theory, and quantum computation.

Quantum mechanics and all other physical theories are claimed to be subsidiary theories, and quantum information becomes a special case of superinformation.

Chiara Marletto's constructor theory of life builds on constructor theory.

Motivations
According to Deutsch, current theories of physics, based on quantum mechanics, do not adequately explain why some transformations between states of being are possible and some are not. For example, a drop of dye can dissolve in water, but thermodynamics shows that the reverse transformation, of the dye clumping back together, is effectively impossible.
We do not know at a quantum level why this should be so. Constructor theory provides an explanatory framework built on the transformations themselves, rather than the components.

Information has the property that a given statement might have said something else, and one of these alternatives would not be true. The untrue alternative is said to be "counterfactual". Conventional physical theories do not model such counterfactuals. However, the link between information and such physical ideas as the entropy in a thermodynamic system is so strong that they are sometimes identified. For example, the area of a black hole's event horizon is a measure both of the hole's entropy and of the information that it contains, as per the Bekenstein bound. Constructor theory is an attempt to bridge this gap, providing a physical model that can express counterfactuals, thus allowing the laws of information and computation to be viewed as laws of physics.

Outline
In constructor theory, a transformation or change is described as a task. A constructor is a physical entity that is able to carry out a given task repeatedly. A task is only possible if a constructor capable of carrying it out exists, otherwise it is impossible. To work with constructor theory, everything is expressed in terms of tasks. The properties of information are then expressed as relationships between possible and impossible tasks. Counterfactuals are thus fundamental statements, and the properties of information may be described by physical laws.
If a system has a set of attributes, then the set of permutations of these attributes is seen as a set of tasks. A computation medium is a system whose attributes permute to always produce a possible task. The set of permutations, and hence of tasks, is a computation set. If it is possible to copy the attributes in the computation set, the computation medium is also an information medium.

Information, or a given task, does not rely on a specific constructor. Any suitable constructor will serve. This ability of information to be carried on different physical systems or media is described as interoperability and arises as the principle that the combination of two information media is also an information medium.
Media capable of carrying out quantum computations are called superinformation media and are characterised by specific properties. Broadly, certain copying tasks on their states are impossible tasks. This is claimed to give rise to all the known differences between quantum and classical information.

Legal update - Construction contracts makeover
Daniel Kelleher, Charlotte von Dadelszen, Steve Nightingale, John Buchan, Mark Odlin
The NZS3910 form of contract is well established and widely accepted in New Zealand in the construction, engineering and building industries as incorporating a reasonable balance of risk and obligation between the Contractor and the Principal. In a recent review of NZS3910:2003 Standards New Zealand considered hundreds of submissions and feedback from these industries provided over a two year period. The reviewing committee decided that the standard should be split into three tailored standards:
NZS3910:2013 - Conditions of contract for building and civil engineering construction
NZS3916:2013 - Conditions of contract for building and civil engineering - Design and construct
NZS3917:2013 - Conditions of contract for building and civil engineering - Fixed term.
together superseding NZS3910:2003. In doing so, the reviewing committee wished to provide clearer, more comprehensive and user-friendly standards. This legal update provides a brief overview of some of the main changes.
This new edition, published on 1 October 2013, includes significant changes and improvements in the content and presentation of the document. Some of the changes include:
Specific provisions have been added for 'cost reimbursement' contracts. These provisions provide much needed detail that did not previously exist. However, these provisions will not remove the need for the parties to elaborate on the costs that are reimbursable in the circumstances
Mandatory provision for the Contractor to complete a programme for the Contract Works within 10 working days of the date of acceptance of the tender. No payment will be due to the Contractor until the programme has been provided. This change highlights the importance of the programme as a mechanism for managing the progress of the Contract Works
The Principal can require the Contractor to provide a site specific safety plan and traffic management plan. These were previously only required on local authority contracts
The Contractor may also be required to provide a quality plan (which replaces the quality management provisions) describing the quality requirements of the contract such as for the materials and workmanship, record keeping, inspection and testing to name a few
The following schedules were added:
Schedule 13 - Form of Contractor (or SubContractor) Warranty
Schedule 14 - Agreement for Off-Site Materials
Schedule 15 - Practical Completion Certificate
Schedule 16 - Final Completion Certificate
The form of Contractor warranty will need to be amended to ensure that the remedies for defects are appropriate for the circumstances (particularly, the Contractor's right to offer compensation in lieu of remedying a defect)
The insurance provisions have been completely restructured to improve their ease of use:
the special conditions must now state the required insurances, the parties responsible to effect the insurances, and the amounts or values of the insurances
the party taking out the cover is liable for the payment of the insurance deductibles except where cover is taken out by the Principal and the loss, damage or liability arising out of an act or omission of the Contractor, then the Contractor is liable for the full deductible (or the nominal deductible as stated in the special conditions)
a new clause was added specifying the forces of nature to be included in the insurance arranged by either the Principal or the Contractor
We are likely to see standard amendments proffered by insurers though we think that the provisions have been drafted to address previous fixes
The guidelines at the back of the form no longer have contractual status.
NZS3916:2013 - Conditions of contract for building and civil engineering – Design and construct
This completely new form of contract was published on 31 October 2013. Up until this date there was no form of contract for design and construction tailored to New Zealand law and practice. The new standard covers procurement where the Contractor is engaged to carry out both the design and the construction of the Contract Works. This form of contract differs from the NZS3910 in the following aspects:
Addition of design responsibilities to the Contractor's obligations
The contract shall either be a lump sum contract or a cost reimbursement contract only. In contrast with NZS3910 and NZS3917, there is no measure and value option (where the contract price is calculated according to the measured quantity of each item carried out at the rates set out in the schedule of prices
Instead of 'Specification and Drawings' in NZS3910, there are 'Principal's Requirements'. These include broad concepts of the design, include the purpose and performance requirements for the Contract Works and may include a preliminary design, drawings and/or specifications. These are described in the tender documents. The detail of the design is then developed by the Contractor
An express statement in relation to the order of priority of the contractual documents though curiously this is still not contained in NZS3910
The Contractor is responsible for locating, protecting and repairing (if damaged during the Contractor's operations) the underground utilities
Where unacceptable conditions are imposed by public authorities in the licences for design or construction, the Principal has a right of termination
NZS3917:2013 - Conditions of contract for building and civil engineering - Fixed term
The new NZS3917 is the third standard based on NZS 3910:2003 and includes some of the content of Appendix C (Term Maintenance Contracts) of the NZS3910:2003 edition. This form of contract is intended to be used for all fixed term contracts, including works running for a defined period of time (and as such extensions of time do not arise). This is in contrast to contracts for a defined scope of work. Works may include maintenance or other building or engineering works, provision of services such as inspection and testing, cleaning, painting, preventative maintenance and repairs.
When defining the Contract Works, a clear description of nature of the services and which party has the exclusive right to provide such services to the Principal is required.
Other points to note:
Due to the fixed term nature of this contract, late completion is not an issue and liquidated damages do not arise. However, liquidated damages can be provided for in the special conditions for certain obligations, for example, if maintenance work was not carried out by the required date or to the specified standard
If applicable, performance payments may be paid as an adjustment to the contract price in respect of actual performance against performance indicators as specified in the contract
In addition to preparing and submitting a programme after tender acceptance, the Contractor is also required to submit a programme to the engineer at regular intervals
Given that work under NZS3917 involves maintenance work performed on existing structures, plant or utilities, the insurance provisions differ from NZS3910 in that new clause 8.9 provides for the Principal to arrange insurance for the replacement values of the existing structures or property (including the Principal's contents contained therein) and the structures or property in the vicinity. The words 'in the vicinity' are not defined and are left necessarily vague but are intended to cover situations where the other existing structures or property could be at risk from the Contract Works.
Our team will be happy to discuss with you how the new standards and the changes to them will affect your work.

Q: Stuck in a for loop entering values to an array in C language I am trying to practice with C by making a bubble sort program. The problem until now seems to be that the for loop that is giving values to the cells of the array is stuck after the condition is no longer fulfilled but it doesn't seem to be executing the commands in the loop. I don't know what is happening exactly and I have added some extra lines to see what is happening an these were my conclusions. Here is the code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

void swap(int *x, int *y)
{
    int temp = *x;
    *x = *y;
    *y = temp;
}

int *sort(int *array)
{
    int finish = 1;
    while (finish = 1)
    {
        finish = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i <= sizeof(array); i++)
        {
            if ((array + i) > (array + i + 1))
            {
                swap(array + i, array + i + 1);
                finish = 1;
            }
        }
    }
    return array;
}
int main()
{
    int s, res;
    printf("Give me the size of the array being sorted(larger than 1) : ");
    do
    {
        res = scanf("%d", &s);
        if (res != 1)
        {
            printf("Wrong Input!\n");
            exit(1);

    printf("Array has been sorted! Have a nice day!\n\n************************************************************");
    return 0;
}

1) size_t is the type that is guaranteed to be big enough to hold all sizes of objects in memory and indexes into them. The conversion specifier for scanf() is "%zu".
2) sizeof(array) in main() will yield the number of bytes in array, but you want the number of elements so you'd have to use sizeof(array) / sizeof(*array). But thats not needed since you already know its size. It is s.

A: This line
printf("end of reading the array");

has no line feed at the end of the string. This is a problem because printf is part of the family of functions called "buffered IO". The C library maintains a buffer of the things you want to print and only sends them to the terminal if the buffer gets full or it encounters \n in the stream of characters. You will not see, end of reading the array on your screen until after you have printed a line feed. You only do this after calling sort(). So all you know is your program is getting into an infinite loop at some point before the end of sort.
So there are actually three loops that could be infinite: the for loop you identified, the while loop in sort and the for loop inside the while loop. As the other answers point out, you have made the classic mistake of using assignment in the while conditional
while (finish = 1)
//            ^ not enough equals signs

Unless your C compiler is really old, it is probably outputting a warning on that line. You should heed warnings.
Also, you should learn to use a debugger sooner rather than later. Believe me, it will save you a lot of time finding bugs.

A: In the sort function sizeof(array) returns the size of the pointer. (you can check it by yourself using printf("%d", sizeof(array).
The solution is to change your function to:
int sort(int* array, size_t size) { ... }

and call it with the correct array size:
sort(array, s);

Q: Find if 4 lines form a Quadrilateral in 2D space
*

*How can I know if 4 lines form a Quadrilateral in 2D space?

*And how would I obtain the corners? (in clockwise order starting with the top left corner)

Note that lines are formed by 2 points in my case, however the length is not limited to those points but goes on infinitly.
All points are in a fixed 2D space, say (0, 0, 100, 100). The Quadrilateral is either in that space too, or I do not care about it. Also lines are hardly ever parralel since the data comes from an actual image.

The blue lines here is the data, and the green points are the corners I want to obtain. Note that my input data is not always this nice, but mostly consists of lines which do not form any quadrangle in the fixed space.
What I tried

*

*Find all intersection points within that space.

*Create a convex hull

But this seems inefficient to me and is sometimes inaccurate. I was hoping that there is a somewhat better approach.

A: Call the lines $L_1,L_2,L_3,L_4$, and let $P_{ij}$ be the intersection of lines $L_i$ and $L_j$. Then the quadrilateral is determined uniquely by which of the lines $L_2,L_3,L_4$ is opposite $L_1$. So there are only three possibilities:

*

*$L_2$ is opposite $L_1$: $P_{13}P_{32}P_{24}P_{41}$

*$L_3$ is opposite $L_1$: $P_{12}P_{23}P_{34}P_{41}$

*$L_4$ is opposite $L_1$: $P_{12}P_{24}P_{43}P_{31}$

If none of the lines are parallel, and no three lines meet at a single point, then exactly one of these will be a convex quadrilateral.
Do you know how to determine whether a quadrilateral $ABCD$ is convex?

Are Gulf Shores Mortgages Really Becoming Easier to Get?
Saving up to buy a Gulf Shores home might not be as much of a challenge as it used to be, now that the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) will allow some first-time homebuyers to make down payments of as little as 3 percent on Gulf Shores mortgages.
The goal is to make homeownership more accessible than it has been in a tight post-recession mortgage market. These low-down-payment loans apply to 30-year, fixed-rate Gulf Shores mortgages guaranteed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The agency regulates Fannie and Freddie, which guarantee the majority of U.S. mortgages.
If you want to buy a Gulf Shores home but don't have enough cash on hand for a down payment and closing costs, you might be able to qualify for an affordable home loan. Keep in mind lenders will require you to pay private mortgage insurance (PMI) if you pay less than 20 percent upfront, a cost homebuyers often overlook when determining how much they can pay.
One of the first things you'll want to look at before applying for any of the various types of Gulf Shores mortgages is your credit score.
There are a lot of different credit scores out there, and this has naturally led many consumers to ask: Which credt scores should I pay attention to, and what's my real credit score? People gravitate to the well-known FICO score, (FICO) by all accounts is the market leader in credit scores (meaning more banks use FICO scores than other scores). In fact, many refer to non-FICO scores as "FAKO" scores, but is that really an accurate assessment?
Most lenders have a baseline credit score by which they largely make their decision to approve or deny applicants for Gulf Shores mortgages. The maximum credit score is 850 (though a score of 850 is rare, indeed. Only about 10% of applicants have a score over 800). Any score in the 700s or above is excellent and will get you a loan with the lowest interest rate. When you get into the 600s it starts getting dicey. A score of 680, for example, is still considered good, but when you get below 660, some lenders start saying, "No."
Most people don't realize they have more than one credit score, and just because you pay for your "Fico Score" doesn't necessarily mean you're seeing the same score a lender may be pulling and using to determine whether you qualify for any of the Gulf Shores mortgages they may offer.
Your credit standing not only affects the mortgage rate you may qualify for, it also impacts how much you must pay in PMI. You can also get rid of PMI after you've built a certain amount of equity in your home, among other requirements, but it's on you to go through the process of removing PMI from your loan.
With the new directive from the FHFA, buying your first Gulf Shores home may be more attainable, but the decision requires just as much careful thought as it would if you needed to put down 20 percent of the home's value to get a mortgage. Consider the overall impact on your life of buying a home, and make sure your credit is in good shape before applying for any of the many Gulf Shores mortgages available from most area lenders.

Mold is not only damaging to your home or commercial property, but can also affect your health, such as your respiratory system. Whenever people hear of mold in their homes, they think expensive restoration and denied home owners insurance claims, and they are not wrong. Because of the mold exclusions or limitations that are found in most insurance policies, mold claims are especially complex. As a public adjuster with years of experience here the Miami area, we know that it is vital that a mold claim be linked to a water damage. When our clients ask us for help settling a mold damage claim, our first priority is to investigate whether the mold damage can be linked to water damage for which may be the case for a claim.
Mold can be found anywhere, including new homes, older homes and just about any business locations. Mold needs moisture to grow. When there is constant moisture that goes undetected or unresolved in a home, mold starts to grow and creates a big problem for home owners. High indoor humidity, flooding or water leaks cause moisture in homes and the source of the moisture often determines whether mold damage is covered by home owners insurance or not. We recommend you take the time to review the language of your policy, especially as it pertains to water damage and look for mold exclusions or limitations.
Most basic home owners insurance policies exclude coverage of damage caused by mold, fungi, and bacteria, but that doesn't mean a mold claim will be denied automatically. In most cases, if mold is a result of a covered accidental damage, such as a pipe bursting for example, the cost of mold remediation should be covered. The reasoning behind it is because technically the pipe bursting is the reason for the claim, not the mold itself. Claims are more likely to be rejected if mold is caused by neglected home maintenance such as long-term exposure to humidity, or repeated water leaks.

MINNEAPOLIS -- Miguel Cabrera has been just what the Detroit Tigers expect in the middle of the order. Justin Upton is getting back to the player they hoped would deepen their lineup.Cabrera had four hits, including his 28th home run, and Upton added a three-run homer as Detroit beat the Minnesota Twins 9-4 on Wednesday night.Cabrera had his fifth four-hit game of the season and was a triple shy of the cycle. He opened the scoring with a deep blast to straightaway center field in the first inning.Upton had two hits for the fourth straight game after he didnt start for three games in a row as Tigers manager Brad Ausmus gave the struggling outfielder a break.It lengthens the lineup, Ausmus said of Upton. Hes got power, as you saw tonight. He can hit the ball as far as anyone in the lineup, so its good to see him swing the bat. We want to keep him rolling.Matt Boyd (5-2) tied his career-high with seven strikeouts in six innings to win his fifth straight decision. Since being recalled to start on July 9, Boyd is 5-0 with a 2.39 ERA.Upton was in the midst of a 1-for-30 stretch and had seen his average dip to .226 when Ausmus backed off him. Upton is 8 for 16 the past four games, and has three three-run home runs in that span after going 17 straight games without a homer.Sometimes thats needed, Upton said. A mental break and back at it now.With Upton back contributing, Detroit has scored 27 runs in the past three games.Cabrera doubled deep off the right field wall for an RBI to start a five-run third. J.D. Martinez extended his AL-leading hitting streak to 14 games with an RBI single that scored Cabrera. Upton followed with a hard-hit liner off the facing of the second deck in left field for his 16th home run.Cabrera was awarded a single following a review in the fifth when he hit a ball that was originally ruled foul down the left field line. He added a double in the ninth.Man, Ive been watching that all year, on ESPN for a long time, so its no surprise, Upton said of Cabrera. But its fun. Its fun to watch.Brian Dozier hit his career-high 30th homer for Minnesota, but starter Tyler Duffey (8-10) allowed six runs in three innings as the Twins lost their sixth straight.Dozier became the first Twin since Josh Willingham in 2012 to reach the 30-homer plateau, and he leads the majors with 22 home runs since June 25.I dont know if a lot of people projected him to be a 30-home run guy anywhere along the way in his development, Minnesota manager Paul Molitor said. But its been incredible to watch him put together a season especially after his slow start.PARKING ITA tough first season for Byung Ho Park in North America came to a frustrating early finish.Park, who has been in the minor leagues since late June, will undergo right wrist surgery on Thursday. Park, 30, had been dealing with an injured wrist through much of the season and it recently has worsened. The injury is to a tendon in the back of his hand, Molitor said.Park, a two-time MVP in the Korean Baseball Organization, hit .191 with 12 home runs and 24 RBI in 62 games for the Twins after signing a four-year, $12 million contract in December.TRAINERS ROOMTigers: RHP Jordan Zimmermann (re-aggravation of a neck injury) threw in the bullpen before Wednesdays game and will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo on Friday. He is scheduled to make three rehab starts before returning to the rotation. Zimmermann had returned from a previous injury on Aug. 4 only to be shut down again. ... RHP Mike Pelfrey (lower back strain) threw a 50-pitch simulated game on Wednesday.Twins: LHP Hector Santiago will have his next turn in the rotation delayed because of a bruised thumb on his left hand. Santiago is 0-4 with a 10.89 ERA in four starts with Minnesota after being acquired at the trade deadline from the Los Angeles Angels for Ricky Nolasco. LHP Pat Dean will take Santiagos spot and start Friday at Toronto.UP NEXTThe series concludes with LHP Daniel Norris (1-2, 3.81) taking the mound for Detroit against RHP Jose Berrios (2-3, 9.28). Norris has made three starts since coming off the DL with a strained right oblique, losing to Boston in his last start. Berrios has allowed at least four runs in each of his last three starts, surrendering 14 earned runs in 11 innings.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Josh Jackson has been huddling with the Kansas coaching staff since the start of the season, and the message has been the same: If you quit fouling so much, you would say on the floor more.The sensational freshman must have finally listened.Jackson poured in 22 points, many of them on highlight-worthy dunks, while backcourt mates Frank Mason III and Devonte Graham helped carry the load as fifth-ranked Kansas routed Alabama-Birmingham 83-63 on Monday night in the semifinals of the CBE Classic.Me committing silly fouls take me out of the game, and dont allow me to play as much as Id like, said Jackson, who also had seven rebounds and three assists. It worked out today.Mason finished with 20 points and Graham had 16 for the Jayhawks (3-1), who advanced to play Georgia for the title on Tuesday night. The Bulldogs beat George Washington 81-73 in the other semifinal.Kansas raced to a big early lead, weathered several runs by UAB, then relied on their backcourt of Jackson, Mason and Graham to pull away from the Blazers down the stretch.Theyre very good. Theyre obviously one of the best teams in the country, UAB coach Robert Ehsan said. When they shoot it like that, theyre very hard to beat.Dirk Williams led the Blazers (2-2) with 13 points. Tyler Madison had 12.The Blazers got off to what looked like it would be a catastrophic start, turning the ball over seven times and missing their first 11 field-goal attempts. Their only points over the first 10 minutes came on foul shots, and by the time they finally hit the Jayhawks led 23-3.They started off really shooting it bad, and we defended pretty well, Kansas coach Bill Self said, but I didnt think our defense was very good the last 30 minutes. I thought it was average at best.The Blazers took advantage with a run of their own.They ripped off a 17-2 run over the next 6 minutes as the Jayhawks missed seven straight shots of their own, and they quieted a partisan crowd by getting within 27-20 late in the half.If that didnt make Self irate, the way Kansas ended it did. Graham hit a 3-pointer with 5 seconds to go, but UAB went coast-to-coast for a buzzer-beating basket to deflate the Jayhawks.dddddddddddd.We were exciting going into halftime, Ehsan said. I thought if we could make a run in the second half, we would have a shot. But theyre Kansas for a reason.The teams resumed trading runs early in the second half before the Jayhawks began pulling, and four 3-pointers by Svi Mykhailiuk -- who finished with 15 points -- helped put the game out of reach.We played really well. I think everybodys mind was right, Graham said. We came in focused, just trying to do the little things weve been watching on film that we hadnt been doing well.Jackson added an exclamation mark with just over four minutes left, taking a pass in the open floor and throwing down a windmill dunk while getting fouled for a three-point play.Hes an extremely talented player. His versatility is what Ive been surprised with, how many things he can do on the floor, Ehsan said. Hes a tremendous player.CHARITY STRIPESelf was plenty unhappy with the foul line at both ends of the floor. Kansas sent UAB there 26 times while going just 9 of 19 at its own end. We have to figure out a way to get to the free-throw line, he said, and when we do, itd be nice when we made some every now and then. Were putting people on the line too much and giving people too many free points.BIG PICTUREUAB showed some moxie in rallying from its big early hole, even the Jayhawks never led by fewer than five the rest of the way. It had to be encouraging for first-year coach Robert Ehsan, who is trying to get the Blazers back into the NCAA Tournament this year.Kansas looked tired at times from a brutal start to the season. The Jayhawks played Indiana in Hawaii, Duke in New York and Siena at home on Friday night. The grind continues with the CBE Classic title game before another home game against UNC-Asheville on Friday night.UP NEXTUAB plays in the consolation game Tuesday night.Kansas plays the Bulldogs for the tournament Wholesale Jerseys 2020 Cheap NFL Jerseys Throwback Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Hoodies Wholesale Black NFL Jerseys Discount Jerseys ' ' '

Donald Trump tweeted that Saturday Night Live is "unwatchable" and "totally biased," after Alec Baldwin impersonated him in a cold open sketch mocking his tweets.
Saturday's episode featured Baldwin as the president-elect constantly distracted by his Twitter feed during a national security briefing. The sketch opened in a classroom, where a high school student named Seth was retweeted by Trump—recalling Trump's real retweet of a 16-year-old named Seth, who attacked CNN over its coverage of Trump's false claim that millions of people voted illegally.
Trump disagreed that he could be so tricky.
The sketch continued from there, as Trump retweeted random people while aides tried to deliver security briefings.
Trump's critique of the episode—his second over the past two episodes—drew a response from Baldwin asking the president-elect to release his tax returns.
