President Trump started and ended his day Wednesday by lashing out at NBC and other American television networks. He explicitly threatened the press by saying on Twitter that "network news has become so partisan, distorted and fake that licenses must be challenged and, if appropriate, revoked."
It was a follow-up to the morning missive that reflected his fury over an NBC News report that said he wanted a tenfold increase in the United States' nuclear arsenal. He decried "fake news coming out of NBC and the Networks" and asked "At what point is it appropriate to challenge their License? Bad for country!"
So the president is asserting that media companies which report aggressively about his administration should be punished by having their television station licenses scrutinized and possibly revoked.
In between those two tweets, Trump told reporters in the Oval Office that he found it "frankly disgusting the press is able to write whatever it wants to write."
Freedom of the press is a core principle of the U.S. Constitution.
When a reporter followed up and asked whether he believed there "should be limits on what the press should write," Trump said, "No. The press should speak more honestly."
Still, his comment raised eyebrows, especially because it was the latest remark in a string of heightened "fake news" attacks Trump has leveled against the press in recent days.
Trump's new comments were condemned by press freedom organizations and some former government officials.
But his threat about TV licenses is essentially toothless.
It would not be possible for Trump or his allies to challenge all of the licenses held by NBC in one fell swoop. Residents would have to submit complaints about individual stations to the FCC on a market-by-market basis.
The president seems to be encouraging that with his Wednesday night tweet.
There is precedent for political allies of a president challenging local licenses. It happened under Richard Nixon in the 1970s, when a friend of Nixon's tried to take over a license held by the Washington Post. Nixon's ally did not succeed in his bid.
Short of gross misconduct on the part of a challenged station, it's unlikely any other such attempt now would be successful either.
"Whatever other legal problems [NBC parent] Comcast may have, this is not one of them," Andrew Jay Schwartzman, an attorney who works at the Georgetown University Law Center and specializes in telecommunications law, told CNN. "Comcast knows full well that the FCC will never, ever, deny its license renewal applications."
The FCC is technically an independent body, not subject to the president's orders. FCC Chairman Ajit Pai -- who is a Republican appointed to his current post by Trump -- said in March that his job is not to be a "political actor."
"It is simply to be somebody at the FCC who, as I said, is administering the laws of the United States," Pai said. "I'm simply not going to wade into that kind of political debate."
Neither Pai nor an FCC spokesperson immediately responded to requests for comment about Trump's tweet. But former FCC officials were quick to skewer the president.
"To me it's just incomprehensible that because of the content of NBC News that somehow their license would be at risk," Alfred Sykes, a Republican who served as chairman of the FCC under George H.W. Bush, told The Wrap.
"This madcap threat, if pursued, would be blatant and unacceptable intervention in the decisions of an independent agency," echoed Michael Copps, a Democrat who served as FCC commissioner under both George W. Bush and Barack Obama, in a statement to HuffPost. "The law does not countenance such interference. President Trump might be happier as emperor, but I think the American people would strip him of his clothes on this issue."
A spokesperson for NBC declined to comment.
Trump has increased his attacks on the media in the past week. Last week, he urged the Senate Intelligence Committee to investigate news outlets for publishing supposed "fake" stories. Over the weekend, he hinted it was perhaps time for a law that would require broadcasters to give equal time to both sides of the political debate when discussing public policy.
"At what point are we going to silence media critical of the President?" tweeted Rep. Adam Schiff, the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee. "When we cease to have a First Amendment and a democratic government."

Higher Ed, Business Leaders, and Dreamers from Texas, Florida, and Nationally Call for a Bipartisan Legislative Fix
For Immediate Release: November 29, 2022
Contact: Diego Sánchez, Diego@presidentsalliance.org
To Listen to the Recording of Today's Press Call, Click HERE
On a press call held earlier today, higher education and business leaders from Texas and Florida joined with Dreamer community representatives and advocates to call on Congress to deliver a bipartisan legislative solution this year to resolve the uncertain status of DACA recipients and other Dreamers.
The call took place as part of a Dream Week of Action in Washington, DC, which includes college and university leaders who are part of the Presidents' Alliance on Higher Education and Immigration and Dreamers who have pursued higher education via TheDream.US scholarship program taking part in the call to action for a bipartisan legislative solution.
On today's call, Gregory Haile, President of Broward College in Florida stated, "We face an exceptionally tight labor market limiting economic expansion, and a key element to the remedy is before us. Dreamers strengthen our classrooms, serve our communities, and stand ready to bridge workforce gaps that face our nation. It is time to remove the fragility that pervades the lives of dreamers, and provide the stability that will lift our nation.
Indira Islas, a Congressional Fellow, graduate of Delaware State University, and former TheDream.US Scholar said, "having DACA meant that I could work, drive, and go to college without fear of deportation, but there were still many obstacles. In Georgia, undocumented students are required to pay out-of-state tuition…legislation that would give us a pathway to citizenship would eliminate this barrier to education for driven undocumented students…we are not only at risk of losing or not obtaining jobs after graduation , but this country is also at a greater risk of losing the talent and skills it needs now more than ever. Dreamers need to be able to contribute fully to American society."
Michael SorrellPresident of Paul Quinn College in Texas, said: "DACA has been transformational for students at my institution and across the nation. And it's time to ensure that DACA recipients' uncertain futures are resolved through a bipartisan legislative fix
But I also want to make a related point – many younger Dreamer students at Paul Quinn and across the nation do not currently have DACA, largely because of the toll of the persistent legal challenges to the program. In fact, as the Presidents' Alliance on Higher Education and Immigration reminds us, most undocumented students currently enrolled in college or university lack DACA status entirely."
Glenn Hamer, President & CEO, Texas Association of Business, said "I believe that providing a way for Dreamers to become US citizens is the right thing to do for them and for America. But I also know, as a business leader, that it's a workforce and economic necessity to provide a permanent solution for Dreamers and to resolve their current uncertainty. Right now, in Texas, there are tens of thousands of Dreamers across the state who are already working as teachers, nurses, entrepreneurs, and valued employees at major corporations. But with DACA's future endangered, we run the risk of losing these valued Texas employees – and hundreds of thousands of other DACA workers across the US – unless Congress can finally deliver on a bipartisan legislative fix. Now is the time for our lawmakers to finally deliver a long-awaited bipartisan solution."
The nonpartisan, nonprofit Presidents' Alliance on Higher Education and Immigration brings college and university presidents and chancellors together on the immigration issues that impact higher education, our students, campuses, communities, and nation. We work to advance just, forward-looking immigration policies and practices at the federal, state, and campus levels that are consistent with our heritage as a nation of immigrants and the academic values of equity and openness. The Alliance is composed of over 550 presidents and chancellors of public and private colleges and universities, enrolling over five million students in 43 states, DC, and Puerto Rico.
TheDream.US is the nation's largest college and career success program for undocumented immigrant students, having provided more than 8,750 college scholarships to Dreamers attending over 80 partner colleges in 21 states and Washington, DC. We believe everyone, regardless of where they were born, should have equitable access to a college education, a meaningful career, and opportunities to contribute to the communities they call home.

Halo: Infinite's Campaign Will Not Have 4 Player Split-Screen Co-op
After the birth of a new meme, which is jumbo Brute boi Craig, confusion bubbled up regarding Halo: Infinite's campaign and how many people can play with each other via split-screen co-op and online play. Although the next-gen game may not support four-player co-op through split-screen, it does offer four-player online co-op.
To clarify the difference between "split-screen co-op" and "online co-op," the former means that you can play a game on one console with up to two people in the same space while the latter means that from your console you can play with more than two people around the world online.
Although Halo: Infinite will let people experience both methods of co-op play, couch co-op is limited to two people while online co-op can go up to four players.
The above information comes from website gamingbolt.com, which sources 343 Industries' Hook saying the following when misinformation was making its rounds around the web:
Hey everyone I saw some reports of campaign supporting 4 player Split screen for campaign and just want to correct. Halo Infinite will be supporting 2 player split screen and 4 player online co-op for campaign. Sorry about the confusion. #haloinfinte
— jerry hook (@hookscourt) July 25, 2020
In case you can't see the above tweet, Hook outlines Halo: Infinite's split-screen and multiplayer campaign situation as written below:
"Hey everyone I saw some reports of campaign supporting 4 player Split screen for campaign and just want to correct. Halo Infinite will be supporting 2 player split screen and 4 player online co-op for campaign. Sorry about the confusion."
Lastly, Halo: Infinite is still set to debut later this year, given that Microsoft has verified on multiple occasions that the next-gen game remains "on schedule to launch in Holiday 2020" for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X despite its recent campaign trailer looking dodgy.

FOR BLACK THEATRE LIVE QUEEN'S HALL ARTS IS LEADING ON TOURING MORE OF THE CONSORTIUM'S COMMISSIONED THEATRE TO THE NORTH EAST REGION.
The Queen's Hall is a magnificent early Victorian building which faces Hexham Abbey (dating from 647AD). From its christening as an arts centre in 1983 until the hand over to the charitable organisation, Queens Hall Arts in 2001, the building was under local authority control. The building is shared with Hexham Library and the Little Angel Café, both tenants of Queens Hall Arts. Queen's Hall's resident theatre company Théâtre Sans Frontières is based in offices at QHAC and opens all of its shows in the Theatre.
Queen's Hall is also home to Hexham Book Festival and Judith King of Arts&Heritage.
QHA receives regular financial support from Northumberland County Council, Arts Council England and Northern Film & Media.


Cleaning up properly can prevent a lot of potential problems while painting, and can also save you money on extra tools in the long run. Here are some tips to help you out. This first hack helps keep your brushes like new after you finish a project. Start off by rinsing your brushes with warm water for one minute per brush, or until the paint no longer comes off easily. Pour a few cups of vinegar into a microwave safe bowl and microwave for about 2 minutes. Then soak your brushes in the hot vinegar for 30 minutes. The vinegar will eat away any paint you missed when rinsing. When storing paint, cover the bucket with plastic wrap before putting the lid on. This will keep the lid from sticking to the bucket. You can also dab the top of the lid with a little paint to help you remember which color is in which bucket. To keep your roller trays clean and reusable, cover them with a plastic bag or aluminum foil before pouring in the paint. Use plastic wrap when painting around awkward objects like toilets or ceiling fans. Press and seal wrap works especially well for porcelain or metal surfaces. Keeping your painting supplies in a used water bottle case will prevent accidental dripping. In case you do have some accidental spills, you can clean up smudges by either using an alcohol wipe or dipping a Q-tip into alcohol. Note that some wood surfaces may be damaged by using alcohol or other harsh cleaners. Test the wipe in a small, inconspicuous area first before using this method. Wrap a rubber band around your paint can lengthwise. Wipe your brush on the band instead of the can's edge to avoid unwanted messes. These simple tips should help your house stay cleaner and your tools last longer.


For patients who have lost verbal communication skills, music can provide an alternate source of enjoyment and connection. Exposure to music can reduce blood pressure and stress hormones, and music therapy can improve behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia. Musician Heidi Clare taps into these benefits by performing for elders and people with dementia in Marin County (CA, USA). She describes the transformative effect music can have: "When I first walk in, they're shut down…But by the time I leave, even after just the first time I work with them, they're changed, they're open. And after three times of working with them, they're rowdy!" Jessica Phillips-Silver, a cognitive neuroscientist at Georgetown University (Washington, DC, USA), explains that these energising effects are due to the ability of music—and particularly of rhythm—to activate a widespread network in the brain. "We often think of music as for the ear, but we're actually engaging a multi-sensory ability, and those abilities seem to centre around the auditory and motor domains," she says. "There's something about the regions of the brain that are responsible for anticipation and planning of movement that interact with the sound and seem to result in these very highly intense and pleasurable experiences." Clare is also using music to educate audiences about the importance of brain health. Alongside her co-host, Bruce Miller, co-director of GBHI and director of the Memory and Aging Center at the University of California, San Francisco, Clare produces Brain Song Radio, a podcast about creativity and the benefits of music on the brain. Together, they interview high-profile musicians who, because of their careers, often have interesting stories and perspectives about resilience and adaptability—two traits important for brain health. Through their fans, they also have a wide audience base who might like to listen to what they have to say. Clare's goal with the podcast is to influence listeners to make healthy lifestyle choices that are ultimately good for their brains, while humanising and destigmatising people with dementia.
Dominic Campbell is leveraging the unique atmosphere of festivals to spread the gospel of brain health. For seven years, Campbell produced the Bealtaine Festival in Ireland, which celebrates the arts and creativity of elderly people. The benefits of engaging elders in the arts are well-documented. In Ageing Artfully, a report by The Baring Foundation (London, UK), director David Cutler writes, "In addition to the intrinsic and fundamental joys of creativity, artistic expression, and entertainment, at its simplest the benefits from work in this area can be divided along two dimensions: health—physical and mental wellbeing—and relationships—personal or immediate (family, friends, carers, staff) and societal, or broader (community development)." Campbell's new initiative, a travelling arts festival, will continue to focus on aging. Inspired by his time at GBHI, he plans to incorporate more science into the festival acts, featuring researchers who will disseminate innovative ideas and interventions directly to the audience. "Through festivals, people enter a different kind of state. They are much more likely to try out a new thing at a festival than they are if they're walking down an average street," Campbell explains. He hopes that this openness will inspire people to try new foods, exercises, or hobbies that might help improve their brain health later in life in the hopes they adopt them once they return to their everyday lives.
Animal behaviourist and entrepreneur Adam Waskow joined GBHI after more than 20 years working at Guide Dogs for the Blind. He hopes that his new endeavour, Memory Dog, will do for people with dementia what Guide Dogs does so well for the blind. Spending time with animals is a generally soothing experience that can decrease stress and agitation. Animal assisted therapy has been linked to lower levels of loneliness and depression by providing social and emotional support, as well as facilitating interactions with other people. Therapy animals can also act as triggers for memories of past pets or serve as a substitute for pets that have to be left behind when a patient enters a care facility. With Memory Dog, Waskow wants to provide therapy animals to patients with dementia at different disease stage, ranging from those who still live in their own homes to full-time residents at care facilities. He thinks that therapy dogs can assist dementia patients with agitation, apathy, and compliance with medication, hydration, and hygiene. "Therapy dogs are something that are scalable and affordable, that we can teach people to use, and that we can get into a lot of places," Waskow explains. One of the first alumni of the Atlantic Fellows programme at GBHI, Waskow is now raising funds to launch his initiative. The money will go toward building a memory dog centre in Marin County (CA, USA), and to train memory dogs for people with dementia.
Regardless of the type of intervention, the four Fellows agree that inter-personal connection is key. Narrative, music, art, and animals provide varying means to engage with elderly audiences, but the result is the same—feelings of community, empathy, joy, and purpose. Kate de Medeiros, a gerontologist at Miami University (Oxford, Ohio, USA), supports this idea. "People forget that people with dementia, regardless of type, have capacity to engage in meaningful things." She adds that people often "overlook this very important aspect of human engagement" and that "the arts are a really good way of making that connection with people." Through their work, the Atlantic Fellows hope to improve the lives of old individuals and those with dementia, and they strive to change society's narrative of dementia from a loss of self to a gain of new ways to connect with others.

Novices mix it with the elite
ONE of the most appealing factors of taking part in the Liverpool Half Marathon is the opportunity to run alongside some of the country's best athletes.
With a field of more than 5,000 expected on March 19, there will be runners of all abilities - from the fun runners aiming just to complete the 13.1 mile course to the experienced athletes hoping for a personal best.
Among the top male runners will be Raza Ahmed.
The 32-year-old, who runs for Blackburn Harriers, is taking part in his first half marathon.
Ahmed specialises in the shorter distances of 800m, 1,500m and 5,000m. His personal best over 5k is 14 minutes.
He gave up his job as a support worker to concentrate on his running and his ambition is to reach the European Championships.
"The half marathon is a whole new environment and a new challenge for me," he said.
"I really don't know what to expect. If this goes well I will then consider doing a full marathon.".
Andrew Swearman, 28, is another runner tipped to shine next weekend.
He returns from Kenya today after taking part in high altitude training to increase his endurance.
"This is the third time I have been out to Kenya and I find it really helps when I return home," he said.
"It increases the red blood cells which help with endurance."
Swearman, who runs for Belgrave Harriers, is hoping to complete the Liverpool event in around 65 minutes.
His previous personal best in a half marathon is 68 minutes.
Currently running between 80 and 100 miles a week, Swearman's ultimate aim is to compete in the Olympic Games.
Liverpool race director Tim Hutchings said: "There are now just 10 days to go and the good news is most of your training should now be behind you.
"After Sunday, you should cut your training by around one third and start to freshen up. You can't go into a half marathon tired if you want to enjoy the day.
"Remember too that your sleep in the middle of next week is important.
"Finally, do a little work on your mile splits so you know roughly what time you should be passing each mile. That way you will spread your effort out well over the full distance. There's nothing better than passing people in the second half."
* RUNNERS who are concerned they have not received their race packs and numbers are being reassured today.
There has been a delay in sending out the packs but these went out at the end of last week.
Anyone who has not received their race pack and number by tomorrow should contact the London Marathon help desk on: 020 7902 0200.

What monitors work with Apple laptops?
There are several types of monitors that work with Apple laptops. The latest models have limited port options, only supporting Thunderbolt and USB-C. You can also find older MacBooks with Mini DisplayPort connections. The good news is that most monitors support both HDMI and VGA. However, if your Macbook Pro doesn't have a display port, you'll need to upgrade the screen to get a higher resolution.
Do all monitors work with Apple laptops?
The answer is: yes and no. MacBooks have three different connection types: HDMI, VGA, and Thunderbolt. Most newer MacBooks only support the USB-C port, while older models may have Mini DisplayPort connections. But, if you're running out of options, you can use a DVI or HDMI monitor. Alternatively, you can use a DVI or an HDMI adapter to connect an older Mac to a standard PC monitor.
What's the best monitor for MacBook?
If you're looking for a monitor that will fit your MacBook, consider buying one that uses the same technology as your laptop's screen. IPS LCDs ensure the same level of color accuracy across two screens. More expensive models are more likely to support a broader range of color spaces, which is essential if you plan to use your monitor for photo editing and video creation. Here are some recommendations to consider whether you'll be using the monitor for work or gaming.

The annual installation of officers was held at the Summit Avenue Presbyterian Church in Bremerton. As always, the food was awesome and abundant. The opportunity to celebrate a great year and look forward to another kept the conversation upbeat all evening. Past Lt. Governor Dave Foote was the Master of Cermonies.
Our new President Patti has hit the ground running, having conducted several weekly Kiwanis meetings over the past months. Having recently returned from the District Convention in Kennewick, WA she is full of enthusiasm and exciting plans. It promises to be a great year!
For the past several months, club members have been selling raffle tickets for a beautiful, custom made Ukulele. It was hand made by Dan Pudelko (Fiddlestix Originals) of Plains Montana. He also happens to be the son of our new President Patti! The tension mounted as Alyson Rotter's daughter pulled the winning ticket. Our own member, Deann Irish was the winner! Hopefully we will have a demonstration of her new talents at an upcoming meeting! Congratulations Deann!

Look around: Healthcare Foundation has funded many a new La Porte attraction
November 25, 2020 | City Parks
The outdoor fitness court in Kesling Park is an HFL-funded improvement.
By Kathy Bernel
We're still in the throes of a pandemic that has stolen lives, sickened many, and up-ended economies the world over. Not much to be grateful for this Thanksgiving season, right?
Think again.
The City of La Porte has been on the receiving end of over four million dollars in the last four years, all in the form of grant money from the Healthcare Foundation of La Porte. The foundation, funded from the proceeds of the March 2016 sale of La Porte Hospital, is dedicated to improving the health and wellness of local residents. It does this by funding organizations that have identified projects to improve life here.
The city is one of those organizations.
"This year we give thanks and celebrate what partnerships and cooperation can accomplish," Maria Fruth, HFL president and CEO, said Tuesday. That spirit of partnership and cooperation can be seen in projects, both highly visible and behind the scenes, throughout La Porte.
An image of the kayak launch to be built in Soldiers Memorial Park.
Mayor Tom Dermody said a favorite HFL-funded endeavor is the kayak launch in Soldiers Memorial Park. Awarded $112,180 in grant cycle 2019, the city summarized the project in its application to HFL as follows: "The goal of our project is to provide recreational opportunities for those with physical challenges who want to engage in water-based activities. We propose installing the ADA-compliant kayak and canoe launch on the Hennessey wetland, allowing access to the La Porte Chain of Lakes Blueway (Pine and Stone lakes and the Hennessey wetland). Construction would also involve paving the lot near Cummings Lodge across from Stone Lake Beach as well as installing a set of kayak lockers for daily storage."
That project, Dermody said, highlights one of the best things La Porte has to offer: its lakes and outdoor recreation opportunities. La Porte has surrounding communities beat, hands down, in terms of quality of life, Dermody said. And quality of life, he believes, is exactly what businesses are looking for when assessing areas in which to locate and/or expand.
"Many mayors have said they wish they had the natural resources that La Porte has," Dermody said. That's one of the reasons for the city's adoption of '"La Porte — Livin' the Lake Life" as a tag line in its marketing efforts.
The Clear Lake Boardwalk.
Dermody is also proud of the nearly completed Clear Lake trail head and boardwalk, as well as the Chessie trail connection and the outdoor fitness areas at Kesling Park.
The mayor acknowledged that he has fielded complaints from residents who expect the city to use the funds to improve sidewalks and fix roads.
"Number one, you can't use (HFL foundation funds) for projects like that," Dermody said. "Number two, people have been saying 'We want more things to do.'" And people want La Porte to be able to offer a quality of life that makes residents want to stay, and makes their kids want to stay as well, he added.
Dermody credited his predecessor, former Mayor Mark Krentz, for starting a number of the projects, and he praised his team at City Hall for continuing work on the projects. He expressed thanks to Fruth and members of the HFL board of directors for their commitment to improving the lives of La Porteans. Earlier this year, Fruth noted that "(the) success of our community's health and wellness organizations, as well as the Healthcare Foundation's mission, lies in the development of deep partnerships across our community."
Observing the city's progress with the grant funding, Fruth said Tuesday that "the Healthcare Foundation of La Porte has been strengthening the city and parks infrastructure by awarding those funds to create an environment that invites healthy lifestyles, accessible to all."
She also noted that the HFL's goal for the middle of next year is an educational campaign focusing on the benefits of active living.
Here are highlights of some of HFL's larger partnership grants with the city:
$887,000 Stone Lake Trail (2019 strategic grant, cycle 2)
Project summary: The City of La Porte will design and construct an .8-mile multi-use trail along the shores of Stone Lake from Craven Drive to the Stone Lake Beach House. The 8 ½-foot-wide asphalt trail will run along Lake Shore Drive and Grangemouth Road and will include nodes with lake access that bump out into Stone Lake every 500 feet or so along the trail. The project includes shoreline improvements with native plantings and erosion stabilization. This is the first segment of a planned loop trail around Stone Lake that will connect Soldiers Memorial Park to the Chessie Trail via Truesdell Avenue.
The Clear Lake Trail and Boardwalk.
$570,089 Clear Lake Trailhead and Boardwalk (2018 strategic grant, cycle 2)
Project summary: With the construction of the Clear Lake Trailhead and Boardwalk, we hope to see greater access to recreation and exercise activities for all La Porteans, including sedentary adults. The trailhead provides the essential access point for the Clear Lake trail and the boardwalk, two new facilities for recreation and exercise to be constructed in 2018-2019. By 2022, the City of La Porte plans to complete 1.7 miles of trail that will encircle Clear Lake and tie into 3.5 miles of the Chessie Trail, connecting Pine and Clear Lakes with our downtown and surrounding neighborhoods.
$506,000 18th Street Greenway (2020 strategic grant, cycle 2)
Project summary: The City of La Porte has been working to support the School Corporation's expansion of the Kesling Campus; to date various roadway and limited pedestrian improvements have been completed, however one key piece is missing. The 18th Street Greenway Project-Phase 2 continues the work, providing safe access for biking and pedestrian students to and from the Kesling Campus and Kesling Park. The project will develop a multi-use side path between Kingsbury Avenue and I Street along the south side of 18th Street and sidewalks to fill an accessibility gap along Kingsbury Avenue (Fox Street and 18th Street).
$425,000 Sub-area Plan and Clear Lake Recreational Improvements (2018 strategic grant, cycle 2)
Project summary: Through completion of the Sub-Area Plan and Clear Lake Recreational Improvements, we will see greater access to recreation and exercise activities for all La Porteans in the heart of the city. The planning portion of the grant will maximize the effectiveness of proposed recreation-focused projects in the area of NewPorte Landing, Clear Lake, and downtown. The construction portion of the grant includes completing a recreational access point on Clear Lake, preparing underutilized wetland for recreational improvements, and building a connector trail that will link the Chessie to Clear Lake.
Chessie Trail.
$232,020 Chessie Trail, phase 1 (2017 strategic focus grant)
Project summary: The Chessie Trail, Phase 1, is the first leg of the City of La Porte's first regional trail. Phase 1 connects Kiwanis Teledyne Park to NewPorte Boulevard and is approximately 1.5 miles in length. Future phases of the trail will traverse the entire city and extend into neighboring communities.
$181,768 Kesling Park Batting Cages and Shade Sails (2018 strategic grant, cycle 2)
Project summary: The Kesling Park ball diamond complex becomes a hub of nearly constant activity from March through October, with leagues and tournaments for adults and youth filling the schedule. While the Park Department has invested in the facility in recent years, adding more and improved amenities will help us get more residents active and draw more visitors to our parks.
Tennis court renaissance.
$165,000 Tennis Renaissance, phase 1 (2018 strategic grant, cycle 2)
Project summary: Our goal is to create a resurgence in tennis participation in our community in order to deliver better health and wellness for residents. The first phase of this initiative calls for the renovation of the Bill Reed Tennis Complex in Kesling Park. The courts are worn and cracked and on the verge of presenting a safety risk. The renovation of these courts will also allow us to provide either dedicated or shared-use pickleball courts which will better serve our senior population.
Other HFL grants have been awarded with an eye toward safety, such as $24,212 to the La Porte Fire Department's Automated External Defibrillator (AED) program; $24,000 to La Porte parks for water filling stations; and $64,800 to the city's Park Safety Initiative for the three regional parks for AEDs, lighting detector systems and radar speed signs.

https://arab.news/222s5
Updated 23 June 2020
Decision taken due to the ongoing threat from the coronavirus pandemic
Pilgrims will come from various nationalities who already reside in Saudi Arabia
DUBAI: Saudi Arabia's ministers of Hajj and Heath have assured the safety of pilgrims during Hajj 2020 – announcing guidelines including age restrictions, social distancing measures among others at a press conference held on Tuesday.
Saudi Hajj Minister Mohammad Benten said the plan for this year's pilgrimage has been outlined with the Ministry of Health, in accordance with coronavirus precautionary measures.
Among the general guidelines announced during the press conference is limiting the pilgrimage to residents and citizens under 65 years old, as well as mandatory coronavirus testing and quarantine.
Saudi Health Minister Tawfiq Al-Rabiah said the ministry has prepared a hospital in case of emergencies during the pilgrimage.
The number of pilgrims to be allowed to perform Hajj has not yet been finalized, Benten said.
Earlier on Monday, the Saudi government announced Hajj will go ahead next month but with a "very limited" number of pilgrims allowed to take part.
The decision was taken due to the ongoing threat from the coronavirus pandemic and to preserve "global public health," the Saudi Ministry of Hajj and Umrah said.
Pilgrims taking part will be from various nationalities who already reside in Saudi Arabia.

— Foreign Ministry (@KSAmofaEN) June 22, 2020
About 2.5 million pilgrims performed Hajj last year but the ongoing scale and spread of COVID-19 worldwide means people will not be able to travel to the Kingdom to take part.
The ministry said the decision had been made "in light of continuation of the pandemic and the risks of Coronavirus spreading in crowded spaces and large gatherings."
The statement said: "A very limited number of pilgrims from various nationalities who already reside in Saudi Arabia, would be able to perform it.

"This decision is taken to ensure Hajj is performed in a safe manner from a public health perspective while observing all preventative measures and the necessary social distancing protocols."
Last year, more than 1.8 million pilgrims traveled to Saudi Arabia from abroad to take part. The Hajj ministry said this year the risk of transmitting the disease between countries and the increase in infections globally meant the risk was too high.
The ministry said Saudi Arabia's top priority is to always enable Muslim pilgrims can perform Hajj and Umrah safely and securely.
The Council of Senior Scholars said on Monday it supported what the Kingdom's decision to limit the number of pilgrims in order to preserve their health and safety.
Meanwhile, Egypt's Minister of Awqaf, Mohamed Mokhtar Gomaa, said that in light of the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, his country also supports the Kingdom's decision to limit the number of pilgrims, based on nationalities as well.

Q: Reducing Execution time of UrlFetch in google AppScripts I am having a spreadsheet which contains a list of URLs.
I am trying to search if an URL contains a particular class or not and based on response I will set 0 or 1 in the cell next to it.
I have made a script and it does the purpose but I'm experiencing execution timeout error so just want to is there any way I can reduce it's execution time.
here is the code

function ulrFetch(){
  var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName('Sheet1');
  var class = ss.getRange(1, 5).getValue();
  var lr = ss.getLastRow();
  var urlList = ss.getRange(3, 8, lr-1).getValues();
  var length = urlList.length
  for (var i = 0;i<length;i++){
    var url = urlList[i];
    var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url.toString());
    var result = response.getContentText();
    var index = result.indexOf(class);
    if (index > -1){

      ss.getRange(i+3, 5).setValue('1');
    }
    else {
      ss.getRange(i+3, 5).setValue('0');
    }
  }
}

Thanks in Advance!!

A: How about this modification? I thought that 720 requests might be able to be used by fetchAll(). So I would like to propose to use fetchAll(). The flow of this modified script is as follows.

*

*Create requests using urlList.

*Retrieve values from URL using fetchAll().

*Create values for putting to Spreadsheet.

*Put the created values to "E3:E".

Modified script :
Please modify as follows.

From :

var urlList = ss.getRange(3, 8, lr-1).getValues();

To :

var urlList = ss.getRange(3, 8, lr - 1 - 1).getValues();

By this modification, the values from row 3 to last row can be retrieved.
And

From :

for (var i = 0;i<length;i++){
  var url = urlList[i];
  var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url.toString());
  var result = response.getContentText();
  var index = result.indexOf(class);
  if (index > -1){

    ss.getRange(i+3, 5).setValue('1');
  }
  else {
    ss.getRange(i+3, 5).setValue('0');
  }
}

To :

var requests = urlList.map(function(e) {return {url: e[0]}});
var res = UrlFetchApp.fetchAll(requests);
var values = res.map(function(e) {return e.getContentText().indexOf(class) > -1 ? ["1"] : ["0"]});
ss.getRange(3, 5, values.length, 1).setValues(values);

Note :

*

*If an error due to the limitation of fetchAll() occurs, please tell me. I would like to modify the script.

Reference :

*

*fetchAll()
If I misunderstand your question, I'm sorry.

PLMR Acquires Genesis As The Latest Part Of Its Strategic UK Growth Plans
PLMR
PLMR, one of the UK's most successful and fastest-growing integrated communications agencies, has acquired East Anglia agency Genesis as it continues to take forward its strategic plan to strengthen its regional network and the services offered to clients.
The acquisition comes hot on the heels of PLMR's announcement last week that it has acquired Advent Communications in the Midlands, and further adds to a network also covering London and the South East, as well as Scotland.
Bringing Genesis into the PLMR family is a recognition of the vital importance of the East of England region as an area of strategic growth for the agency and a reflection of the area as a key economic driver for the UK. The acquisition will make PLMR one of the leading agencies in the region, with an even greater ability to deliver market-leading skills and services to clients.
Kevin Craig, Chief Executive of PLMR, said:
"This latest acquisition is a further key step forward as we advance our strategy for client-focused growth.  Having a market-leading presence in our core regions coupled with a strong presence in London is at the heart of delivering excellent services for our clients and taps us into the dynamic growth taking place around the country.
"We have known and admired Genesis for many years and are delighted now to be able to work with the team. Just as with the announcement we made last week about the Midlands this new relationship is wonderful news for our clients and staff. And there will be much more to come."
PLMR's East of England office already works with many high-profile organisations operating across the region, including the UK Innovation Corridor and a range of major property developers. It also supports clients including The Adecco Group, Dexcom and the National Office of Animal Health.
Genesis is one of the East of England's most respected and innovative communications agencies working with organisations such as Skills Training UK, OFTEC, County Broadband, MoreLife, S&P UK and Zoological Society of East Anglia.
Penny Arbuthnot, Founder of Genesis, said:
"It was essential for us that any buyer of Genesis would share our values and be a fit with the Genesis services and sector expertise and we have found all of this with PLMR. The synergy has been clear from the outset and we are excited by the progressive approach, expertise and additional resources which bring new opportunities for clients and the team."
Simon Darby, Director, East of England at PLMR, said:
"This is a hugely exciting moment as PLMR and Genesis join forces in the East of England. The region is one of the most dynamic and exciting in the UK, home to many of the growing and innovative sectors that will be a key part of the country's success in the coming years. Our acquisition of Genesis will support us to become the leading agency in the region and ensure that we can provide clients with the complete range of high-quality communications services they need."

Sollasina cthulhu var en primitiv tagghuding i klassen Ophiocistioidea och levde under Paleozoikum i perioden Silur för 430 miljoner år sedan.

Upptäckt

Forskare från Universitetet i Oxford, Universitetet i Leicester, Imperal College London och Univeristy College London undersökte år 2016 ett fossil ifrån Herefordshire i England. Med hjälp av 3D grafik kunde en virtuell bild av det välbevarade fossilet tas fram och studeras. Fossilets goda skick gjorde det möjligt att konstatera att Sollasina cthulhu var en för vetenskapen helt ny upptäckt art. Fossilet, som utgörs av ett enda exemplar, upptäcktes vid en utgrävning i början av 2000-talet.

Beskrivning och ekologi

Djuret var inte större än en spindel och det kända exemplaret är ca tre centimeter långt. Det utmärkande för Sollasina cthulhu är antalet tentakler, 45 stycken. Dessa användes för att röra sig över havsbotten i de akvatiska miljöer djuret levde i. Precis som hos andra tagghudingar som exempelvis ormstjärnor kunde även armarna fånga in små förhistoriska djur som tjänade som föda. Denna tagghuding var förmodligen ett utpräglat rovdjur som aktivt letade byten. Munnen fanns på djurets ventralsida, under tentaklerna och hade fem stycken tandliknande strukturer.

En utmärkande skillnad mot dagens tagghudingar är att Sollasina cthulhu hade en kropp som var täckt av många hårda plattor av möjligtvis kitin. Man har dock observerat spår av ett vaskulärt system inuti djuret, där även mjukare vävnad fanns.

Taxonomi

Klassen Ophiocistioidea som Sollasina cthulhu tillhörde är utdöd. Morfologiskt påminde dessa djur om ormstjärnor, men en analys av den vaskulära ringen på Sollasina cthulhu den enda art i ordningen där strukturen förekommer, tyder på att djuret var närmare släkt med sjöborrar.

Episode 260: Listener-Suggested Topics; Homelessness vs Illegal Immigration / States Suing Nuns
Monday, July 22nd, 2019	at 1:00 am
One listener, Russ Rooney, called in to the Voicemail Feedback Hotline with two topic suggestions. That's what I talk about this time out.
He asks a question about cities that have declared themselves sanctuaries for illegal immigrants, yet have a huge homelessness problem. How can cities bring in more people when they are already failing their current residents?
The Little Sisters of the Poor, a group of nuns ministering the elderly poor, got a unanimous Supreme Court decision in their favor to have nothing to do with abortion coverage for their employees. But that's apparently not good enough for 13 states and DC from suing the nuns separately.
Russ wrote a letter to the editor of 2 of his local papers to get this lawsuit some coverage because they are totally ignoring it, even though his state is joining in this lawsuit. Where's the journalistic integrity? See below the show transcript for his letter.

We'll open this voicemail episode with the audio from Russ Rooney. He called the voicemail feedback hotline and had a couple of suggestions for topics to cover. Take it away, Russ.
Hello. I was thinking that it would be a good idea to have a segment, if you haven't already, on the Little Sisters of the Poor being sued by thirteen states. I live in Minnesota and unfortunately we're one of the states that have joined California in that lawsuit. And then also, states like California, that want to bring more immigrants in, take a serious look at their homelessness problem. I think it's close to 60,000 people are living in squalor, and they're worried about disease and so forth. So a couple thoughts there.
Let me start with the second one first because I've heard people look at the same situation – a huge homelessness problem – and come up with very different reasons for it.
Liberal friends of mine have looked at the homelessness problem and thought that government should fix it. "There, but for the grace of God, go I", is the thought process, and I agree with that, partially. But the thing is, with all the money governments pour into the homelessness problem, very little comes of it. Seattle, for example, spends about a billion dollars every year fighting homelessness, but they could just give each homeless man, woman, and child $100,000 for that kind of cash. Clearly whatever they're spending it on is not helping. Maybe the reason we continue to have this problem is government itself, and maybe the solution to the problem can't be found in money alone.
I have a link in the show notes to a rather long but quite good essay on the problems with the government solutions to the Seattle issue. The author has a suggestion for really solving the problem, and it comes, not from the government, but from us. He notes that "The best way to prevent homelessness isn't to build new apartment complexes or pass new tax levies but to rebuild the family, community, and social bonds that once held communities together." He quotes a recovered addict and current outreach worker for the Union Gospel Mission who said, "There are 6,000 people on the streets in Seattle. I know 3,000 of them by name and know their stories. It's not a resource issue in this city, it's a relational issue. The biggest problem is broken relationships." I would also add that this sort of sense of community used to come primarily from houses of worship. As our government attacks them, is it any wonder we're losing the ties that bind us together? Government can't replace that.
And so places like Seattle and many places in California that declare themselves Sanctuary Cities do little for their homeless population, and then figure they have plenty of room for illegal immigrants to pour into. This is completely irresponsible, but even though they've made the problem worse, they'll blame you, the taxpayer, or capitalism, or eeevil corporations, because you complain when they raise taxes to pay for programs that are failing.
They have the right intentions, dontcha' know. It's just a matter of a liiitle bit more cash. From you.
As to Russ' first suggestion, I had not heard at all about states suing the nuns from The Little Sisters of the Poor. So first, some background for the rest of us.
Anybody remember the Supreme Court "Hobby Lobby" case? It decided that a "closely-held" corporation could be exempted from the ObamaCare requirement to provide abortion drugs in its health insurance. No matter that the Hobby Lobby insurance policy covered 16 of the 20 mandated contraceptive methods, that wasn't enough for Leftists trying to ensure that their orthodoxy was followed to the letter by all.
Around the same time was another, similar case involving a group of nuns called "The Little Sisters of the Poor" whose ministry was to elderly poor people. The Hobby Lobby case worked in their favor. The Obama administration was going to accommodate their religious beliefs, but in a way that the nuns still thought made them complicit in something they found morally objectionable. Health and Humans Services wanted them to sign a letter that would allow the organization's employees to obtain the birth control coverage. The nuns understood that the government could provide other ways for their employees to get abortions; they just didn't want to be involved with it. Ultimately, the Supreme Court unanimously overturned the lower court rulings, ordered the government not to fine the Little Sisters, and instructed the lower courts to provide the government an opportunity to find a way to provide services to the women who want them without involving the nuns.
But the Supreme Court's unanimous decision at the federal level wasn't good enough for 13 states and the District of Columbia. They decided to sue the Little Sisters themselves to force the issue, because there's nothing worse than nuns who help the poor and elderly who won't pay for abortions. That's the kind of humanitarian crisis our state attorneys general need to be busy with. That case is currently working its way through the courts.
But in an email exchange with Russ, he noted that two local papers, the Minneapolis Star Tribune and the Twin Cities Pioneer Press, are making sure the locals know nothing about it even though their state is involved with it. He wrote a letter to the editor at the Strib, but they passed on it, so he's sent it to the Pioneer Press. We'll see if there's any journalistic integrity left in Minneapolis / St. Paul.
Russ' letter to the editor:
Most people in Minnesota, I believe, are against bullying.
It is heart breaking when bullying is from our MN Attorney General. Mr. Ellison has joined California and is suing the Little Sisters of the Poor.
The Little Sisters of the Poor are not involved in politics and don't try to force anyone to do something against their religious beliefs. They simply want to live out their lives helping the elderly poor as stated on their website: "Continuing the work of Saint Jeanne Jugan, our MISSION is to offer the neediest elderly of every race and religion a home where they will be welcomed as Christ, cared for as family and accompanied with dignity until God calls them to himself."
The fact that Keith Ellison has joined Minnesota in a lawsuit against the Little Sisters of the Poor is a disgrace and misuse of our tax dollars. Shouldn't Ellison be focused on domestic violence, sex trafficking, gangs and corruption instead of suing a group of people who are committed to serving the elderly poor?
Our Attorney General has on his website " We want to hear from you." If enough people call and tell him to stop harassing the Little Sisters of the Poor maybe he will understand it is wrong to pick on women who are helping the poor. Please call Mr. Ellison at 651-296-3353 and let him know that he was not elected to be our top bully attorney.

The California Color Guard Circuit (CCGC) is one of the many winter guard circuits that are part of Winter Guard International (WGI). Established in 1964, the CCGC was started by six (6) charter members: Sacramento Capitolaires, Stockton Police Cadets, Raleys Raiders, Richmond Hawks, Praetorians, and the Rhythmettes. CCGC membership represents many scholastic programs and independent programs throughout Northern California and Nevada. In 2016, the circuit had just over sixty guard units and around sixteen percussion units. Evaluations are typically held in January; guard units are evaluated in the beginning of January, whereas percussion groups are evaluated towards the end of January. The typical season goes from January to the end of March or beginning of April. Shows are generally held in the San Francisco Bay area and the Sacramento area, though the circuit is based out of Santa Clara County. Each year CCGC holds its own championships and sends many groups to the world championships at WGI. CCGC is the proud home of many WGI medalists including:
 James Logan High School;
 San Jose Raiders;
 Blue Devils;
 Dublin High School;
 Santa Clara Vanguard;
 Clayton Valley High School;
 Amador Valley High School;
 Johansen High School;
 Freelancers;
 Ventura; and
 In Motion.
This long list shows that CCGC is, indeed, the Circuit of Champions.

Pentagon and CIA sources say this could lead to the downfall of Trump because he... has lost a lot of military support. "The continued presence of Jared Kushner and John Bolton in the White House, combined with the amateur-hour coup in Venezuela and the appointment of Iran-Contra criminal Elliott Abrams as special envoy for the Venezuelan matter, are all leading some to doubt the President," one Pentagon source noted.
Corporate (fascist) interests are also losing big in places other than Venezuela. In the U.S., drug companies are being forced to cut prices as arrests of pharmaceutical industry executives have begun, Pentagon sources say. In the EU, an attempted merger between Siemens and Alstom was stopped because it would have led to a high-speed rail monopoly.
Also, worldwide, the Bayer/Monsanto corporation continues to pay for its many crimes. There were Army-Navy special operations from February 4-9 in Los Angeles aimed at "the pedos of Hollywood," Pentagon sources say. The Department of Justice has also reopened its probe of "Mossad pedo agent Jeff Epstein," the sources note.
"As loving humans we must realize that a certain part of our population wasn't as lucky as them and instead they have been broken and traumatized through satanic brutalization since birth to eventually continue perpetuating the system of evil we are now trying to overcome.

CLEVELAND - The Cleveland Indians couldnt wait any longer for Justin Masterson to fix his pitching problems. Jarrett Allen Jersey . The Indians placed Masterson on the 15-day disabled list with inflammation in his right knee Tuesday. Masterson, the teams opening day starter, is 4-6 with a 5.51 ERA. Manager Terry Francona talked with Masterson on Monday after the right-hander allowed five runs and six hits in two-plus innings against the New York Yankees. "Mastys first inclination was wanting to pitch through it, which we respect," Francona said. "The way it was going, though, we thought wed DL him and get him some treatment." Masterson made the All-Star team last season when he went 14-10 with three shutouts. The Indians considered him to be their staff ace going into the season, but Masterson hasnt won since June 8 and has pitched more than four innings once in his last five starts. Masterson has been dealing with a sore knee most of the season. He was pushed back a couple of days earlier this month, but his results havent improved. "Its hard to imagine it would help," Francona said of the injury. "Im not in his body. When a guys out there competing, I dont think they think about it a lot, but I dont think it helps." Masterson was pulled without retiring a batter in the third against New York. He walked three, hit a batter and rarely topped 90 mph in his 54 pitches, throwing only 24 strikes. He has given up 19 runs, 27 hits and 17 walks in 18 innings over his last five starts. Mastersons short outings have also also put a lot of stress on the bullpen. Francona used five relievers Monday and six a week ago when Masterson didnt record an out in the fourth inning against the Los Angeles Dodgers. "Maybe two weeks would be best for him and us because he was exiting early," Francona said. "Its hard to keep doing that and keep the bullpen not only healthy, but productive." Masterson is a free agent after this season. The two sides talked about a contract extension in spring training, but didnt reach an agreement. Corey Kluber is the only starter whos still in the rotation that opened the season. Zach McAllister and Danny Salazar are pitching at Triple-A Columbus while Carlos Carrasco was moved to the bullpen after four starts. The rotation includes Trevor Bauer, Josh Tomlin and T.J. House, who all began the season in the minors. The Indians are in third place in the AL Central with a 43-45 record and trail first-place Detroit by 6 1-2 games. "Youre going to need more than five starters," Francona said. "Its a difficult thing to build in depth. You walk a fine line there. I dont think our record is what we want it to be. You can whine about it or you can choose to try to figure out a way to win. McAllister or Salazar will be recalled to start Saturday against the Chicago White Sox. The Indians also recalled left-hander Nick Hagadone and catcher Roberto Perez from Columbus and optioned outfielder Tyler Holt to Triple-A. Right-hander Mark Lowe was designated for assignment. Drazen Petrovic Jersey . It was considered unlikely that Rielly would be loaned to Canada for the tournament, which begins Dec. 26 in Malmo, Sweden, though a stretch of three straight games in the press box made it something of a debate. Custom Brooklyn Nets Jerseys . Five years ago, Nestor and Zimonjic beat the American twins to win the title. But the Bryans, the worlds top-ranked team, needed 74 minutes to earn the victory Saturday as both Nestor and Zimonjic lost serve in the second set. http://www.nbanetsauthority.com/ . Serbia captain Bogdan Obradovic said his team will include 9th-ranked Janko Tipsarevic and 27th-ranked Viktor Troicki as he decided to let the top-ranked Djokovic rest.FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. - Julio Jones is a game-changing wide receiver for the Atlanta Falcons — even when hes less than full speed.Thats why it was so important for the teams playoff hopes that Jones, recovering from a hip injury, returned to practice Friday. The Falcons will need their top offensive threat when the NFC South title is on the line Sunday against the Carolina Panthers.Despite missing one game with the injury two weeks ago, Jones leads the NFC with 100 catches and 1,535 yards receiving. He had seven catches for 107 yards in last weeks win at New Orleans, even though he continues to battle the injury.Im not there yet, I can tell you that, Jones said Friday when asked if he was close to 100 per cent.Quarterback Matt Ryan said Jones impressed his teammates by playing through the injury last week.Everybody in this locker room knows how much this means to him and how competitive of a guy he is and how tough of a player he is, Ryan said. I think guys really respect him for that.The Falcons may be without starting running back Steven Jackson (quadriceps) against the Panthers. Jacksons injury makes Jones status especially important.Julio is an integral part to our offence and our football team, coach Mike Smith said Friday. Hes very explosive. He creates explosive plays and he creates mismatches for defences. Its going to be very important for us to create some explosive plays in the game this week.Jones said he plans to play Sunday, though he was designated as questionable instead of probable on Fridays injury report.Its a mindset, Jones said. I know Ive got to be out there for my teammates and if I tell those guys upstairs and Mike Smith that Im ready to go, then Im ready to go and Im going to give it my all.Jones is enjoying a strong finish to the regular season. He has three straight games with at least 100 yards. He had 10 catches for 189 yards and a touchdown in a home wwin over Arizona on Nov. Allen Crabbe Jersey. 30. Jones followed that with 11 catches for a franchise-record 259 yards and a touchdown at Green Bay on Dec. 8. He missed the loss to Pittsburgh on Dec. 14.Julio has had an unbelievable year, Ryan said. The production that hes showed has been impressive. Even for a teammate to step back and look at it, hes been incredibly impressive.Jones had 79 receptions for 1,198 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2012, his second season. He was leading the NFL in catches when his 2013 season ended with a broken bone in his right foot in a Week 5 loss to the Jets. He broke the same bone during his college career at Alabama.Jones earned his second Pro Bowl berth this year. His play has been a rare positive in a mostly disappointing season for the Falcons (6-9).A win Sunday would give Atlanta a home playoff game the following week.The thing I like about this game is the opportunity, Jones said.Receivers Roddy White (ankle) and Harry Douglas (foot) are listed as probable.The bigger injury question appears to be Jackson, whose status is questionable. He left last weeks win at New Orleans with the quadriceps injury.Jackson was on the practice field but did not have a helmet in the portion of Fridays practice that was open to reporters. Smith said all the players on the injury report were participating in practice at some level.NOTES: There was a light-hearted end to the practice. Players cheered and Smith served as the referee as the Falcons training staff beat the equipment staff in an annual flag football game. Smith cautioned the flag football teams against tackling because Were going to need you on Sunday. ... PK Matt Bryant (sick) missed practice and is listed as probable. CB Josh Wilson (hamstring) is questionable.___Online: AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL___Follow Charles Odum on Twitter at www.twitter.com/CharlesOdum Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale NFL Jerseys Jerseys From China Wholesale NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys ' ' '

A Secret Weapon for Neverwinter Diamonds


The Cylonator tab in the SciFi Plugin allows you to transform your voice into a robot, ghost, or alien-like being. This effect uses a vocoder which is quite popular in modern music. It has also been used in many different movies in varying degrees. Some examples where this effect has been used are from: Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, Battlestar Galactica, and most notably the music by KraftWerk.
Sets the cutoff frequency of the filter used in the vocoder. The lower the frequency, the more intelligible the resulting speech will be. This value also effects the pitch of the synthesized speech via the Pitch Multiplier. The higher the filter cutoff, the higher the pitch range will be.
The SciFi vocoder is a stereo vocoder, meaning that the left and right channels are analyzed independently. There are controls for right and left channels.
Sets the amplitude of the excitation signal that synthesizes the speech. Increasing this value will increase the volume of the resulting speech. However, for very high signals you must set this appropriately, or clipping in the resulting speech can occur. If this does, lower the amplitude.
This sets the relative pitch of the resulting speech. Increasing this value increases the pitch, decreasing it lowers the pitch. This can also be used in conjunction with the Cutoff Slider. If you want to increase the pitch even further than the Pitch Multiplier will let you, by increasing the Cutoff Slider, the Pitch Multiplier range moves up (like a window) to offer a higher pitch range. This concept works the same for achieving lower pitches as well. So, the lowest pitch you can get is having both sliders all the way to the left. You can use different pitch values for stereo signals to emulate chords or interesting voice effects.
When enabled, the excitation signal is white noise. This gives a ghost like or raspy sounding synthesized speech. When this is used, the Pitch Multiplier Slider is disabled. You can use this on the right or left channel, or both to create interesting voice effects.
The included presets demonstrate many of the functions of the sliders and some commonly used effects. Please try them out, the best way to find cool effects is to experiment with the controls.
