Summer Slow Jams III
The third Sunday of Summer Slow Jams finds us with the first of four slow-jammy Time-Life collections, Smooth Soul, from 2012. Made up of four albums, each a double disc featuring 29-32 songs, Smooth Soul features an outstanding collection of romantic soul ballads from the Sixties and Seventies.
As one would expect from such a collection given that it was put together by Universal Music Special Markets, it is heavy on songs from Motown's catalog though most of the usual soul suspects (Atlantic and Stax/Volt labels, Chicago and Philly Soul groups) are here as well. There are 58 Number One R&B hits among the total 123 Top 10's spread across the eight discs and in fact, the two lowest charting R&B singles on the set still made it to Number Eleven!
The bonus fifth album, Down Home Soul (not pictured) is a double disc with 25 songs. The album deviates from the "romantic" mission statement and stands as more of a straight, up-beat soul disc and therefore will not be included in today's festivities. A fellow slow jams aficionado pointed out to me that not every slow song or ballad is necessarily a slow jam by definition but I think many of the songs found in the Smooth Soul collection fit the bill. Let me know what you think in the comments below.

Also in Aligning with SPG 601.27
Project Timeline
SPG 601.27 and Supporting Standards Alignment FAQ
Expand All Content
What are the primary objectives Information Assurance (IA) hopes to achieve with the revised Information Security (SPG 601.27) policy and supporting standards?
Reflect commitment to a university culture that information security is a shared responsibility
Provide standardized guidance identifying appropriate security controls for systems and applications
Support U-M compliance with federal and state regulatory regimes that require specific information security policies and documentation of security practices
Provide an authoritative response to the question: Where does it say I have to do this?
When do all units need to be generally aligned with Information Security (SPG 601.27) and the 13 supporting standards?
There is no 100% security because there are always new threats to deal with and the
cybersecurity environment is constantly evolving and shifting. The objective for units is
continuous improvement in meeting the minimum information security requirements for each
standard; incremental improvement is still improvement. Units should prioritize opportunities
for improvement since it's not possible to do everything at once; there are always resource and
time limitations. U-M's approach to information security is risk-based. Units should seek to
identify the greatest risks associated with unit-unique systems and applications and focus
mitigation efforts on those.
Who in my unit is responsible for making sure this happens?
IA works with each unit's Security Unit Liaison, who is expected to serve as the facilitator and coordinator for their unit's implementation planning. Specific objectives for this role include:
Review the policy and standards to understand how they will apply to their unit (for example, many requirements in the standards only apply to sensitive institutional data classified as High or Restricted).
Plan how to meet the minimum security requirements applicable to unit information systems and applications.
Solicit and incorporate input of unit IT staff, administrative and business system administrators, faculty, and/or researchers.
Collaborate to identify potential resource needs or constraints.
Determine how to apprise unit leadership of progress.
Is IA responsible for certifying my unit as compliant or aligned with SPG 601.27 and the supporting standards?
No. IA will not carry out any certification process. Units are encouraged to conduct a voluntary
self-assessment of their progress toward alignment with the Minimum Information Security
Requirements encompassed in the standards that support Information Security (SPG 601.27). It
is recommended that units that opt to do a self-assessment do so before December 31, 2020 so
that timeframes and strategies for addressing identified gaps can be developed. IA will be
available to support units in their self-assessment but will not directly carry any out and units
will not be expected to submit their self-assessment to IA.
Can IA visit my unit for an overview of the policy, individual standards, or to do a security "health check"?
Yes, we would be happy to. IA staff have been meeting with units and departments from all over the university and find it mutually helpful to discuss specific environments with their own set of security challenges. Unit staff may also appreciate the opportunity to meet with IA subject matter experts and get their technical or substantive questions answered. Contact info-assurance@umich.edu to set something up.
What resources are available to support unit implementation of the standards?
Minimum Security Requirements for Systems, Applications, and Data.
Protect Your Unit's IT. Standard-by-standard detailed guidance, instructional documentation, and, in some instances, tools and templates.
Standards Working Session Reports. IA conducted seven sessions for unit IT staff and others that
consisted of a detailed walk-through of the requirements for each standard, along with
an opportunity for questions and individual consultations with subject matter experts.
The last session presented a template for a unit self-assessment. See the recordings, slide decks, and Q&A reports for all sessions at SPG 601.27 Implementation Presentations.

Mum with a mission!
PUBLISHED: 12:04 02 August 2007 | UPDATED: 12:43 04 May 2010
PROUD MOMENT: Karen Chaudhry shows off her London Marathon medal and she prepares to tackle the run again.
MOTHER-OF-TWO Karen Chaudhry pounds the streets and her treadmill with sheer determination to make a difference to other people s lives. She is training hard to make sure that she will be among the thousands of runners in next year s London Marathon who
MOTHER-OF-TWO Karen Chaudhry pounds the streets and her treadmill with sheer determination to make a difference to other people's lives.
She is training hard to make sure that she will be among the thousands of runners in next year's London Marathon who will be ploughing money into charity coffers across the country.
Karen, 39, of Isleham, has pledged her support to the Spinal Injuries Association, the official charity for the 2008 marathon.
In April, she crossed the finishing line in just over five-and-a-half hours and raised almost £2,500 for the charity in the 26-mile run.
"People were dropping like flies in the heat, but once I'd crossed that line all I could think of is 'yes, I've done it,'" she said.
Karen is determined to raise money for the charity after seeing how her grandmother's life was completely changed when she suffered a spinal injury.
She was a successful businesswoman, running her own engineering company and enjoying three holidays a year.
But returning from one of her trips, the car in which she was travelling was involved in a serious road crash, turning it over.
Karen's grandmother suffered a fractured spine which left her paralysed from the chest down.
She spent a year in hospital before being able to return home to a house which had been adapted to meet her needs.
In her late 60s and previously very active, she needed help with daily tasks such as bathing and dressing.
Determined not to move her bed downstairs, she used a stairlift and worktops in the kitchen were lowered to allow her to stay as independent as possible. A special car carried her wheelchair.
"She had lived a fairly full life," said Karen. "She took three holidays a year, including cruising, and owned her own business. But her accident clearly changed her life.
"Suddenly, being stuck at home was very difficult for her, with her family making sure she had everything she needed."
Karen's grandmother lived for six years after her accident, finally succumbing to a chest infection.
"I am fairly certain that if she hadn't been injured in the accident she could have gone on until she was 100," said Karen. "I don't think there is much history of illness in our family and she would certainly have probably lived a lot longer."
Karen, a specialist registrar in renal medicine, had spent many years in the Navy, including a seven-month tour of duty in the Falklands.
Despite being extremely fit, she disliked running and the thought of training for a 26-mile road race filled her with dread.
As she trained on freezing cold mornings while others were in bed, she realised the commitment needed for the challenge she had taken on.
Now a full-time mum with a five-year-old daughter and a three-year-old son, Karen has had support from her family for her efforts.
"My daughter keeps a running log," she said, "and puts on her trainers and runs with me.
"I think, about two years ago, I loathed running with a vengeance. If someone had said run a mile I would have said 'no way'. Even in the Navy I would do only what was required when it came to running."
Now she has signed up for her second marathon and hopes other people will come forward to run for the charity.
She said: "It's a truly excellent cause. Imagine what a difference it would make if hundreds of people stepped up to raise the crucial funds they need for their amazing work.
"I wanted to run the marathon in memory of my gran. But I also want to raise money so that families and young patients, especially, can get the specialist help and support they need because life goes on even if you are paralysed," said Karen.
For more information about the work of the Spinal Injuries Association or how to take part in the charity's running events, contact the charity by phone on 0845 071 4350 or by e-mail at teamsia@spinal.co.uk


Psychology is a subject that poses specific problems for those writing on it, and it is not surprising that many college and university students experience serious difficulties when faced by some types of assignments dealing with this discipline – for example, personal statements. If you find yourself among those who cannot write a psychology personal statement on your own (or make a lot of mistakes, or waste an inordinate amount of time every time the need arises to perform such a task), it may be a wise decision to buy a custom psychology personal statement written by a person who actually knows what he is doing. For example, one of the writers working for AdvancedWriters.com.
What is So Special about Our Psychology Personal Statement Help?
We represent a personal statement writing service that has been created to help psychology students with particularly difficult, complicated and just obnoxious writing assignments from short personal statements to extended personal essays in psychology. We've spent years perfecting our hiring procedures, hiring good writers and building up a reputation of a professional company capable of assisting with any writing task – and we are proud to say that we've managed to do it. Today an absolute majority of our customers is satisfied with our services and come back for more whenever they need somebody to write a custom personal statement for them, our writers keep broadening the scope of topics and disciplines they work with, and our record is getting better and better.
Original psychology personal statement writing. Our writers are professional enough to produce original papers of excellent quality. All of them are specialists in their respective fields, and they simply don't need to use plagiarized content in their work. However, we still check every text produced by our company using high-quality anti-plagiarism software – thus we can be sure that copy/pasted segments don't appear in our work even accidentally.
In order to receive help from some of the best academic writers available online, you simply have to fill in the order form on our website, provide the necessary information about the kind of psychology personal statement you need and pay the required sum. Despite the high quality of our texts and careful choice of writers to hire, we set our fees at the industry average to make our services available to the largest possible number of people. We know how little opportunity there is for students striving for an academic degree to get really good psychology personal statements and do our best to fill in this gap. If you've been looking for a service that consistently provides well-written personal statements, you don't have to look any longer – AdvancedWriters.com is here to help you, and you can contact us at any time. Be it night or day, a workday or a holiday, somebody will be present to answer your query, provide all the needed additional information and help you place an order if you experience any difficulties navigating our website.
What guarantees do we have that the people we advertise as specialists know how to write psychology personal statements?

Complete Checklist for Black Library?
Hello, I am wondering if anyone has a checklist that is complete for the Black Library books (or at least until a few months ago.) They used to have one on their site, and I liked the ones in the back of books, but they no longer do that. Just the basic releases is fine, but if you have the limited rare too that would be great. I have a very large collection of BL books, and I was just trying to make sure there weren't any I missed.
Any help would be appreciated, and I am sorry if this is available somewhere else, I saw one thread that had one, but the link no longer works. Thanks in advance!
Re: Complete Checklist for Black Library?
I once attempted to put one together, which is below. The 40K section hasn't been updated in quite a while, and the fantasy one has also gone a bit wrong - I've tried correcting it but there might still be a couple of releases missing (likely from 2008-2010). Not all the omnibuses are on there, either. The lists below are supposed to cover every release in order, although there's probably the odd gap and they're not fully up-to-date. It doesn't include ebooks or audiobooks at all, either. Still, hopefully it should give you something to be going on with.

Meant to post this before. Thanks so much! It definitely gets me a start, so Thanks!

I've also done the Time of Legends books; see below. This doesn't include ebooks or audios, as above, but I have included the limited edition Sundering book - this was originally sold under the Warhammer label, but the ebook reprint is now categorised under Time of Legends and it obviously belongs with the Sundering trilogy.
Really appreciate this - hope it helps others as well!


The Dora Falcons varsity boys basketball team, which includes four freshman starters, won third place in the recent Mountain Grove tournament, which included a Dora loss to Hartville. But the Falcons avenged the loss Feb. 2 in a nail-biter, double-overtime victory against the Hartville Eagles in Hartville.

Dora freshman Isaac Haney earned a spot on the Mountain Grove all-tournament team. The Falcons brought home the third-place trophy from the recent tournament after a 61-44 first-round win over Willow Springs, a 57-42 loss to a tough Hartville team and a 73-67 win over Clever.

When the Freddie / Fannie 6% $6000 Short Sale Payout for Second Lien Holders Works Against Them!
If you've negotiated enough short sales in Massachusetts and New Hampshire you've seen the Freddie Mac / Fannie Mae stalemate with a second lien holder. They have an interesting philosophy. All second lien holders are capped at 6% or $6000, whichever is cheaper. Now, initially, this wasn't a huge problem if the second lien holder didn't agree to the payout and wanted more money because you could have the buyer, seller, agents, etc., do a POC on the HUD for any difference. So for instance a Chase primary Freddie Mac Loan gets approved and then offers Citizen's the $6000 to approve. Well if Citizen's is owed $85,000, their noses might be a little bent as traditionally second lien holders get somewhere in the 10% range and certainly can hold out for more and there starts the stalemate. Before you could just have a seller contribute the difference, so $2500 to Citizen's on the HUD so they could get their 10% if that's what they were demanding to release the lien.
Interestingly, Fannie/Freddie seems to have clamped down and via servicer negotiators has stated on no uncertain terms that NO ONE, including the buyer, seller, agents, or anyone else can contribute to the second lien holder and the second lien holder MUST agree to the 6% or $6000 or they will "close the short sale file" – Seems a bit harsh to me. I mean aren't we in a position in this country for a few thousand dollars we could settle with BOTH lien holders? So Freddie / Fannie would RATHER foreclose on a property than let a seller contribute to the second lien? No, this doesn't make any sense.
So, this in essence can really screw the second lien holder. We aren't in the golden state either. Massachusetts and New Hampshire are RECOURSE states so these lien holders CAN come after us for any remaining debt. I've seen lien holders waive their deficiency rights for $500, but with this new policy by Fannie/Freddie it FORCES homeowners to shut up and not fight for approvals which release them of any further debt. It's a pretty crappy situation for the homeowner…but what about Freddie/Fannie themselves?
Now before you start to think that they've really set themselves up nicely not to fail, keep in mind that if the two lien holders don't come to an agreement, the property likely will end up in foreclosure. Does that help Freddie/Fannie investors? No of course not, but this week I had a very interesting thing happen. My second lien holder CITI only wanted $4200 to release. I was pretty excited. I had $1800 that we could NET back to Freddie. The offer was a bit low and of course there is an impending foreclosure. I thought, "Hey Freddie will jump on this extra $1800," and maybe my homeowner won't need to sign a prom note or bring extra cash to closing **TIP** Don't ever tell short sale sellers that if they do a short sale, they won't be required to bring money to the table. You'll shoot yourself in the foot. Lately there is a trend from Freddie / Fannie to ask seller for prom note or cash to approve the sale *** Ok back to my story. I went back and let Freddie know they could have more in their NET and do you know what I was told? Nope, the $6000 is flat. That's what we're giving and we don't care if the second lien holder requires less. Ummm???? What????
So Freddie wasn't netting enough from the buyer's offer not to ask my seller for Cash or a Promissory note. There is an extra $1800 that is now freed up to use towards that NET amount so my cash strapped seller doesn't have to bring extra money to closing right? BUT NO. Let's just throw the $1800 at Citi who didn't require it.
Yes, that's what we're dealing with folks. This is the current state of short sale politics in our country that is losing investors millions. You could have added extra to your NET, but you make ridiculous policies and therefore you lose, the homeowner loses, your investors lose, and we stay in this climate for a long time.
Your Massachusetts and New Hampshire Short Sale Closer!

Wates starts £21.5m Carlisle leisure hub
Wates Construction has started work on a £21.5m leisure and community hub in Carlisle.
GT3 Architects designed the new leisure hub
The project will see the redevelopment and expansion of the current facility at The Sands Centre.
Set across two storeys, the new build extension will add 40,000 sq ft to the existing facility, allowing for an events hall, a four-court sports hall, a 25m swimming pool with spectator seating and a 20m learner pool.
The new Sands Centre will also boast a café and bar area, dance studios and a non-clinical NHS facility, to create a community hub for Carlisle.
As part of its enabling works, Wates has supported Carlisle City Council and their leisure provider GLL by creating a temporary leisure facility at the nearby Newman's School to support capacity for the community.
Other delivery partners appointed to the project include Pick Everard, GT3 Architects, Buro Happold and FT Leisure.
The project is Wates' third major leisure job secured under the SCAPE Construction framework, following the recent completion of the carbon-neutral Braywick Leisure Centre, and the landmark Sandwell Aquatics Centre set to be completed in early 2022.
Dave Saville, Business Unit Director for Wates Construction in the North West, said: "This is an incredibly ambitious and complex build, but one which will be of real benefit to for the community in Carlisle.
"We've been working with the council around feasibility of this project since 2018, and seeing construction start on site is testament to the hard work of our teams, design partners and the client, who have all been so committed to making this leisure project a reality."
Leader of Carlisle City Council, Cllr John Mallinson, said: "This is another important step forward for The Sands Redevelopment. Even through challenging times, the project and works have continued. Thanks to all the project team for moving this important community facility forward.


Showing results for tags 'Ultraman'.
Rather than post separate threads about newer individual series, here's the super thread for tokusatsu TV series past and present, from Super Sentai to Kamen Rider, Ultraman, and more. To begin, here's the current lineup of tokusatsu shows in Japan: Shuriken Sentai Ninninger (手裏剣戦隊ニンニンジャー) is the 39th Super Sentai series, having premiered on February 22, 2015. It is the third series to use a ninja motif (after 1994's Ninja Sentai Kakuranger and 2002's Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger). It looks so much better than Ressha Sentai ToQger, but that's not saying much. The series is scheduled to be replaced by the 40th anniversary Super Sentai series this February. Fuka-chan... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIcpISHtnLk Kamen Rider Ghost (仮面ライダーゴースト) is the 26th Kamen Rider series, having replaced Kamen Rider Drive on October 4, 2015. Attempting to capitalize on the popularity of Yo-Kai Watch, Kamen Rider Ghost uses a ghost and supernatural motif. The suit looks like leftovers from Kamen Rider Wizard and Kamen Rider Kiva. Ultraman X (ウルトラマンX(エックス)) is the 24th in Tsuburaya Productions' Ultra Series, having premiered on July 14, 2015. It is the first tokusatsu series to have a worldwide simulcast, with U.S. viewers accessing it through Crunchyroll.

Shanghai Diamond League
by Mark Cullen/Trackerati.com © 2019 All Rights Reserved
Note: I'm writing from Olympia, WA, where I'm covering the 35th Anniversary Celebration of the 1984 Women's Olympic Trials Marathon. Joan Benoit Samuelson, Jacqueline Hansen, and Doris Brown Heritage are in attendance, along with many of the competitors who toed the line in 1984.
I'm presenting here an overview of Saturday's Shanghai Diamond League Meet, along with a link to more extensive results.
I'll have much more from the Marathon Trials commemoration in the coming week.
Diamond League Shanghai
Several events were highly hyped in the run up to the meet, and not one of them disappointed.
The long-awaited clash between 400m hurdles superstars Rai Benjamin (US) and Abderrahman Samba (Qat) found them tied coming off the 7th hurdle, but Samba powered away from Benjamin over the last two to win 47.27-47.80 and establish a new meet record.
Sydney McLaughlin's Diamond League debut came in the 400m - not her specialty, which is the 400m hurdles. Nonetheless, she finished a very creditable 2nd to Bahrain's #1 of 2018, Salwa Eid Naser.
If anything, the men's 5000 was overhyped in terms of how fast it might be – it's May and no one wants to run 12:44 quite yet – but the competitive showdown between Ethiopian stars Yomif Kejelcha and Selemon Barega did not disappoint.
Pacer Bram Som was instructed to take the field through the first kilo in 2:30 and did so in 2:30.2 – late again! – but the second pacer was not nearly as masterful as Brom and the pace drifted into the 66 second per lap range. Barega then took the lead, followed by world cross country champion, Joshua Cheptegai, who took it next.
It was a free for all on the last lap with Kejelcha and Barega duking it out. Kejelcha, who has been working on improving his finishing speed, put it on display with an especially impressive last 50m to take the win. All is not lost for Barega: he's 19.
There was a huge upset in the women's shot put as heavily favored Liu Gong lost to rising star Chase Ealy (US)), who PRed in 19.58 – much to the disappointment of the hometown crowd. Yu Wang won the high jump on the countback on home soil at 2.28 with three tied at that mark. Li Ling scored a notable Asian record for China in the pole vault. The top 4 all cleared 4.72, and she took 3rd with Greece's Katerina Stefanidi and Nikoleta Kiriakopoulou 1-2. Sandi Morris (US) was a notable and unexpected 4th.
In the men's 100m, Noah Lyles (US) caught Christian Coleman (US) at the line after a furious finish over the last 30m, 9.86-9.86. (That is not a typo). Can you say 4x100m relay?! Not incidentally, this is a personal best for the 200m specialist.

The women's 100m featured Olympic Champion Elaine Thompson (Jam), Nigeria's Blessing Okagbare, and Aleia Hobbs (US), who had anchored the winning US 4x100m team at World Relays the week before. Lo and behold, the veterans Okagbare and Thompson finished 2-3 to Hobbs' 11.03.
Said Hobbs, "This is my biggest win."
Hobbs was sporting a cast on her wrist after fracturing it while playing laser tag two weeks ago. Note to Hobbs: you just defeated Elaine Thompson and you may play laser tag again in 15 years.
Our favorite spanning the globe result came in the men's long jump won by Jamaica's Tajay Gayle, with China's Wang Jianan second, and South Africa's Ruswahl Samaai third.

World Relays Yokohama - Day 2
This is Why We Run the Races: Part Deux
Photos by Roger Sedres for the IAAF
Brazil's Paulo Camilo de Oliveira
anchors the upset
Men's 4x100m Relay
If you made predictions for the 2019 IAAF World Relays, may I help you get that egg off your face?
What? Oh, I have egg on mine?
Surely you picked Brazil to win the men's 4x100m. No?
France to win the women's 4x200m. What?
Trinidad and Tobago the men's 4x400m?
Not enough eggs to go around?
You picked Poland to dust off the US in the women's 4x400m. And you had Italy for 3rd, right?
The refrain of this meet: this is why we run the races.
Women's 4x400m Relay
Poland's Justyna Swiety-Ersetic
Poland set the tone for an upset-filled day with their unexpected victory in the women's 4x400m relay. The race was won on the final pass as Poland was 3rd coming to the exchange and 1st coming out.
Anna Kielbasinska is the unsung heroine of this win for her textbook pass, with props to Justyna Swiety Ersetic for a terrific anchor; she held off Courtney Okolo of the US and top-notch hurdler Janieve Russell of Jamaica - that's heady stuff.
Even though Russell took the lead briefly with 200m to go, she had to work too hard to get there, and Ersetic sped to a surprisingly comfortable victory over the US, with a strong team from Italy in 3rd.
Trinidad and Tobago's Macho Cedenio
OK, this is not such a huge upset as Trinidad and Tobago won the 2017 World title. The US had a 15 meter lead with 300m to go, but super-closer Macho Cedenio ran down US' Paul Dedewo for the win. Dedewo almost pulled off a spectacular win (note him in mid-air in the photo, above), but he began to tie up with 30m to go. To add insult to injury, the US was disqualified for a lane violation on the last exchange.
The next time Trinidad and Tobago wins the men's 4x400m, it won't be an upset anymore, as the United States teams from London 2017 and today can attest. Had it not been for today's DQ, the US would have been silver medalists in the last two major 4x400s. Belgium finished 3rd with only two of the bevy of Borlee brothers running today.
France's Maroussia Pare
Jamaica fielded a team with two Olympic champions, Elaine Thompson and Shelly-Ann Fraser Pryce. They got a lot of attention, but not of the kind they had hoped for. Video of Jamaica's abysmal passing will outlive them - especially Thompson's opening pass to Stephanie-Ann McPherson - and the US team can thank Jamaica for having even worse passes than theirs. Meanwhile, France, in lane 9, had the privilege of not viewing the disasters occurring inside of them, and they did what their Middle School coaches taught them to do and they did it to perfection. France, China, and Jamaica took the podium places.
Mixed 4x400m Relay
Dontavious Wright Anchors the US
to the World Mixed Relay 4x400m title
The US won this event handily, and part of the pre-race speculation - in what order would the teams run their athletes? - was answered when all teams ran men on the opening and closing legs while women established several of the final places on the 2nd and 3rd legs. The US had a comfortable win over Canada, with Kenya earning bronze.
Remontay McLain Anchors the US to the 4x200m Relay Title
All went according to form as the US, South Africa, and Germany won the medals. The US team passed well and established enough of a cushion that Remontay McLain held off South Africa's 100m star Akani Simbine. Simbine closed well on McLain, who simply had too much of a lead to overcome. Germany set a national record in 3rd, while South Africa's 1:20.42 is an area record.
Aleia Hobbs Anchors the US to the World Relays 4x200m Title
The United States ran the same team two days in a row, and this consistency paid off in a big way. NCAA Champ Aleia Hobbs was given a comfortable enough lead by Dezerea Bryant, but Jamaica's Jonielle Smith took an 'it's not over 'till it's over' attitude into her anchor leg and made up a substantial amount of territory on Hobbs, only to lose by .02, 43.27 to 43.29. Germany was a comfortable 3rd in 43.68.
Brazil's 4x100m Relay Team
after the upset
With Justin Gatlin leading off and Noah Lyles on anchor, this was to be a slam dunk for the US, correct? Not so fast. The US team might have taken a page from the victorious US women book and run the same team two days in a row.
While not terrible, the US passing was merely average, and that's not good enough at this level. Brazil was in lane 7 (interesting how some teams in the outer lanes did so well in this meet) and doing just what France did in the women's 4x200: sticking to crisp passing and taking the lead out of the final exchange. Brazil's Paulo Camilo de Olivera ran a brilliant anchor and held off a a hard-charging Lyles by exactly the same margin as the US women's 4x100m team: .02, 38.05 to 38.07, with Great Britain in 3rd in 38.15.
Pssst. Want a meet summary?
For the first time in World Relays history, Jamaica did not win a gold medal.
Special thanks to IAAF senior website editor Jon Mulkeen for making available Roger Sedres' magnificent photos of this compelling event.
And thanks to Sedres, of course, for his terrific images.
Winners' Parade
World Relays - Yokohama - Day 1
First Day - Saturday, May 11
The Day 1 World Relays highlight came in a semi-final, not a final, as Denmark's women's 4x100m relay team reminded us of why we run the races.
Mathilde Kramer of Denmark anchors the 4x100m relay to a heat win
and place in the final.
Roger Sedres for the IAAF
With podium favorites Great Britain/Northern Ireland and France dropping the baton, and with Canada disqualified, Denmark more than took advantage of their competitors' miseries as they ran a superb race with crisp passing, and they set a national record of 43.90. The joy - and shock - was evident on the face of anchor Mathilde Kramer, caught in the magnificent image by Roger Sedres for the IAAF.
In the other heats, the United States ran a world leading 42.51, and Denmark finds itself as the 7th-fastest qualifier in Sunday's final. Denmark has drawn lane 3 for the final, next to the United State in lane 4; this could be mightily to Denmark's advantage. A podium finish would set off a celebration royale.
Shuttle hurdles: more arms in the air.
Devon Allen anchoring the US to victory in the shuttle hurdles.
After a withdrawal by Jamaica and a false start by Australia, only Japan and the United States were left to duke it out for the win. Japan started strongly and held a surprising lead going into the 3rd leg when Sharika Nelvis reminded everyone of which country dominates the women's hurdles. She restored order by surging into the lead, and Devon Allen anchored going away.
What are they going to do with the bronze medals?
2x2x400m Relay - A new event in need of explanation.
Donavan Brazier anchoring the US to victory in the 2x2x400m relay.
2x2x400m
The first '2' refers to the number of athletes running: one woman and one man. The '2x400m' refers to the total distance each athlete runs.
That's right, each runs 400m twice.
But not in succession.
The two athletes alternate 400m, so the key is judging how fast to run the first one when you'll be starting the next in approximately 50 seconds.
You also get to choose who goes first - the woman or the man?
It's little like the last workout before State: two incredibly high level repetitions on short rest.
The US team of Donavan Brazier and Ce'Aira Brown won with Australia a delighted 2nd; Joshua Ralph's spectacular anchor took the Aussies from 5th to silver. Japan took bronze, to the thunderous approval of hometown fans, while Kenya was disqualified after having led for the first three laps.
There were few other major surprises in the rest of today's races, all of which served as qualifying for Sunday's much-anticipated seven finals. Japan will field teams in the finals of the men's 4x400m as well as the women's 4x200m, and in the heats of the men's 4x200m. Their best opportunity for a podium finish is in the M 4x400m, though they are seeded very evenly in the M 4x200.
The social media highlight of the day came when Japan - a heavy favorite to medal in the 4x100m in front of the home crowd in Yokohama - botched the 3-to-4 pass, Yuki Koike to Yoshihide Kiryu.
But they did so with elegance, style, and creativity. There has never been a pass like this and there will never be another. 'Arming' the relay pass is a whole new concept.
Here is video of the pass in a link to Steven Mills' @Trackside2019 page on twitter: https://twitter.com/i/status/1127189017248841728
You just watched it, didn't you?!

Doha Diamond League
Caster Semenya was the star of the 2019 Diamond League opener - on the track as well as off. Generous and gracious in the face of those who are not, Semenya let her running do the talking as she won the 800m in a blistering 1:54.98 against a field that featured all the medalists from the 2016 Olympic and 2017 World Championships.

The depth of the results was remarkable as 1:59.07 was Raevyn Rogers' time in 5th place; ahead of her in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th were Francine Niyonsaba, Ajee Wilson, and Nelly Jepkosgei.
"For me, I believe nothing is hard in life because it is up to you how you take life," said Semenya, referring to the CAS (Court for Arbitration of Sport) decision against her this week.
"As an athlete, I believe in sportsmanship, and what sports teaches you is to keep pushing on despite all odds. I know life could be difficult at times but I'm a believer and I believe there is always a way to resolve issues. One of my firm belief is that there is always a way out for everything. So if a wall is placed in front of me, I jump it. I'm going to keep enjoying my life and live it. I will keep on training and running. To me, impossibility is nothing."
"It's all about inspiring the world," she said, further, in an interview on the Olympic Channel. "When you are a living testimony of God, you cannot let things affect you personally."
So strong were today's performances that it was hard to tell it was the first week of May.
Delilah Muhammad set the tone for the day in the first track event, the 400m hurdles, as she blew past the field coming around the final turn and won going away in 53.61, a 1.11 margin of victory over a stellar field. World indoor and outdoor champion and 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Ashley Spencer (US), Olympic relay bronze medalist Anna Ryzhykova (UKR), and World and Olympic Games finalist Janieve Russell (Jam) have some work to do.
Sweden's Daniel Stahl set the Diamond League discus record with his 71.29/233-10 statement, one which drew scant response from his competitors, as he won by over two meters. Setting the DL record is no small feat when we consider who has thrown before him, and he gains a huge advantage by achieving this in the World Championships ring.
"I had great power and I have been working on my technique a lot and training hard in the gym so I expected it and I am really happy," he said. "I hope to return here for the IAAF World Championships and win again. The big focus though is always to have fun and big power."
Sam Kendricks won the pole vault in 5.80/19-¼, while 2016 Olympic Champion Thiago Braz (BRA) finished a strong second. His attempts to return to his Olympic heights may finally be coming to fruition.
A surprise in the women's long jump was that Tianna Bartoletta did not qualify for the final. There went an intriguing matchup against the 2018 IAAF Female Athlete of the Year, Caterine Ibarguen (COL), who scored a narrow win over Ukraine's Maryna Bekh-Romanchuk, 6.76/22'2¼ - 6.74, with Australia's Brooke Stratton another centimeter behind in 3rd.
The women's high jump had "star is born" written all over it. Let's let Ukraine's Yaroslava Mahuchikh say it in her own words.
"I was so surprised that I won because I am the youngest competitor here," she said, "so I am extremely happy to take the win and to jump a personal best."
1.96m/6'5"
She is 17.
Remember her name in October.
Five men broke 1:45.00 in the 800m; the resurgent Nigel Amos won in 1:44.29. Donavan Brazier (US) seemed to be moving into perfect placement with 180m to go when he had to steady himself when some jostling took place. Still, he recovered nicely to work his way back from 5th to 3rd at the finish.
Brianna McNeal is the World and Olympic Champion in the 100m hurdles. That was hard to tell today as the field blew by her over the 7th and 8th hurdles and she finished a surprising 7th in 12.94. Jamaica's Danielle Williams' 12.66 ruled the day.
"I didn't expect that," said Williams. "It was a big surprise so I am very happy. It was a big step forward for me, I am so happy I got the win, I went for glory. Now, I just need to remain consistent and stay injury free."
Hilary Bor (US) won everything except the last 100m of the men's 3,000m steeplechase. He took the lead with 600m to go but stutter-stepped repeatedly as he approached the final barrier and Morocco's Soufiane El Bakkali sprinted past to win, 8:07.22 to 8:08.41 – a personal best for Bor.
Nonetheless, the manner in which Bor took control of the race in its latter stages was impressive, and he served noticed that he'll be a medal contender in October.
"Finish second behind Soufiane (El Bakkali) a world silver medalist, is a great achievement and it means I'm doing something right," said Bor. "My goal now is to go back and study the race and see how I can improve… I love the stadium and the atmosphere here tonight is great."
Put him in a 100m race and he'll be taking attendance from behind. Put him in a 200m race and you have an Olympic Champion. Turkey's Ramil Guliyev ran a scintillating early-season 19.99 to win going away. He led coming off the turn and was never challenged.
Similarly, Dina Asher-Smith dominated the women's 200m with her 22.26 world leader. Jamile Samuel of the Netherlands was a big surprise in 2nd in 22.90 over Phyllis Francis and Blessing Okagbare among others in a deep field. Asher-Smith won triple gold at the European Championships in Berlin last summer, but she has yet to mine World or Olympic metal. This serves notice to notable absentees Shaunae Miller-Uibo (Bah) and Jenna Prandini (US) that Asher-Smith is a force to be reckoned with in 2019.
With an 800m split of 1:53.32, it was surprising to see 11 men still in contention 300m later at the bell of the men's 1500m. In a mild upset, Elijah Manangoi held off Timothy Cheruiyot in the area that had been Cheruiyot's strength in his domination of the 2018 season, the last 120m. The top 7 finishers were from Kenya.
Anticipation for this meet had been high after a stellar indoor season was capped by outstanding performances on the outdoor and relay circuits, most notably by Ryan Crouser's 22.74-74 7¼ world leading shot put at Long Beach. As noted here before, he seems well on his way to a world record this year, and today he won with apparent ease at 22.13. However, New Zealand's Thomas Walsh put him on notice that it won't be quite so easy, as he finished a scant 7cm behind.
In a stellar concluding event, Hellen Obiri outsprinted Genzebe Dibaba (these are words you don't hear often) in a women's 3000m race that saw the top 6 break 8:30. The 2019 World Cross Country champion held off the 2008 and 2009 U20 World XC titleist, 8:25.60 to 8:26.20. I would have used the term "down the stretch they come" as two of the greatest distance runners in history battled it out, but tomorrow is the Kentucky Derby, so that phrase is already taken.
It was 88 F (31 C) degrees inside the refurbished Khalifa International Stadium and 99 (37 C) outside the stadium, so while 88 is hot, it could have been worse. This is of import not only for track and field's September/October World Championships but for the 2022 soccer World Cup as well.
A sophisticated cooling system has been installed in the stadium, and several track and field journalists noted how surprised they were at how much difference it made, one indicating that he felt cold in the media tribune (press row) near the top of the stadium. Cold! The system is so strong that it is turned off as competition begins so there will not be interference from the wind it generates.
Next Diamond League stop: Shanghai on May 25th.

FINITE GEOMETRY
The Centre uses its breadth of knowledge of permutation groups, graph theory, computation and algebraic combinatorics to study finite geometries.
Finite geometry is just that: geometry with finitely many points, finitely many lines, and so on.
One of the reasons why finite geometry is interesting is that some of the properties of Euclidean geometry still hold in the finite world. For example, Pascal's Theorem states that the three points of intersection of opposite sides of a hexagram inscribed in a conic lie on a line (see the picture below). The same result holds in the corresponding finite plane. (To be precise, we should take a finite projective plane satisfying the theorem of Desargues).
Finite geometry is intimately linked with experimental design, information security, particle physics and coding theory. Apart from being an exciting and interesting areas in combinatorics, finite geometry has many applications to algebraic geometry, group theory, codes, graphs and designs.
A building is a combinatorial and geometric structure which generalises many of the widely known geometries, such as projective spaces, polar spaces and trees. This field, initiated by Jacques Tits in the 70s as a way to understand the exceptional groups of Lie type, has many applications mainly to group theory.
Some highlights of the work of the CMSC are the following:
Bamberg, Li, and Swartz have characterised generalised quadrangles that admit locally 2-transitive symmetries.
Bamberg, Giudici, and Royle have shown that every flock generalised quadrangle (with an even number of points) has a hemisystem.
Royle and Penttila classified all of the ovoids of finite projective 3-space for all orders up to 32.
Devillers, Muhlherr, and Van Maldeghem showed that a 3-spherical building in which each rank 2 residue is connected far away from a chamber, and each rank 3 residue is simply 2-connected far away from a chamber, admits a twinning (i.e., is one half of a twin building) as soon as it admits a twinning with a single chamber.

Berkel en Rodenrijs () is een plaats en een voormalige ambachtsheerlijkheid en gemeente in de Nederlandse provincie Zuid-Holland. Op 1 januari 2007 is de gemeente Berkel en Rodenrijs samengegaan met de gemeenten Bergschenhoek en Bleiswijk in de nieuwe gemeente Lansingerland. De plaats Berkel en Rodenrijs telt  inwoners ().

Geschiedenis

Vervening en plassen
In Berkel en Rodenrijs begint de vervening ten noorden en ten zuiden van de dorpskern van Berkel. Op de kaart van Cruquius is te zien dat aan het begin van de achttiende eeuw het gebied ten noorden van de dorpskern van Berkel vrijwel geheel is ontveend. De turf werd met scheepjes via de kanalen naar de steden getransporteerd. Door vervening en door afkalving werden de legakkers steeds kleiner. Petgaten groeiden aaneen tot grote veenplassen. Rond 1750 kwamen Rodenrijs, Berkel en Noordeinde aan de rand van, of soms tussen de plassen te liggen. De dorpen, dijken en polderkaden werden door het water bedreigd.

Eerste droogmakerijen
Eind achttiende eeuw werd de situatie in Berkel en Rodenrijs gevaarlijk. Het dorpsbestuur besloot daarom actie te ondernemen en de plassen droog te leggen. De windmolen was hierbij een onmisbaar hulpmiddel. Zeven nieuwe molens kwamen in bedrijf. Als eerst werden de Noordpolder, de Westpolder en de Zuidpolder drooggelegd (1774-1777). De drooggevallen bodem van de plassen werd vervolgens opnieuw ingedeeld. De oude, soms onregelmatige verkaveling werd vervangen door strakke rechthoekige kavels. De vruchtbare grond in de droogmakerijen bracht een periode van grote bloei voor de boeren.

Nieuwe plassen en droogmakerijen
Tegelijk met de droogmaking van de Noordpolder, Westpolder en Zuidpolder ontstonden door de voortgaande vervening aan de westzijde van de Rodenrijse- en Noordeindseweg nieuwe plassen. Die verveningen vonden vanuit verschillende wegen tegelijk plaats en bovendien vanuit de oevers van het Westmeer en het Oostmeer, maar ze hielden halt aan de rand van enkele kleiplateaus. Kleigrond is in tegenstelling tot veen ongeschikt als brandstof. Het Oude Land en de Kleihoogt vormden grillige schiereilanden, omgeven door een verbrokkeld patroon van kleine plassen. In de negentiende eeuw werden in tien jaar tijd de laatste veenplassen drooggemalen: de Nieuwe Rodenrijse Droogmakerij (1844-1848), de Oostmeerpolder (1848), de Bergboezem (1854) en de Polder Oude Leede (1855). Hierbij deden stoomgemalen dienst. Doordat de plassen verbrokkeld en grillig waren, vertonen deze nieuwe droogmakerijen niet zo'n regelmatig verkavelingspatroon als de oude droogmakerijen. Iedere droogmaking kreeg eigen ontsluitingswegen.

Groente en fruit
In de grote steden groeide intussen de behoefte aan tuinbouwproducten. Rond 1880 kwam de verbouw daarvan op gang. Gunstige factoren hiervoor waren de vruchtbare bodem, een goede infrastructuur (vaarwater) en de nabijheid van afzetmarkten. Vanwege de belangrijke vervoersfunctie vestigden de tuinders zich aan de vaarten langs de Rodenrijse-, Noordeindse- en Klapwijkseweg. Na 1900 trad een aanzienlijke professionalisering op. Door de productie te vergroten kon beter worden ingespeeld op de vraag. Wat als koudegrondteelt was begonnen ontwikkelde zich tot teelt onder platglas en in koude kassen. Vanaf de jaren twintig van de 20e eeuw werd gebruikgemaakt van warenhuizen, die in toenemende mate kunstmatig verwarmd werden. Door de groeiende tuinbouw vestigden zich hier tussen 1890-1910 arbeiders vanuit de Zuid-Hollandse eilanden, Noord-Brabant en Utrecht. Vooral langs de Zuidersingel werden kleine complexen eenvoudige arbeiderswoningen gebouwd. In Rodenrijs werd bij het station een groenteveiling met haven gevestigd, tuinbouwproducten werden aangevoerd per boot en afgevoerd per trein.

Begin van de suburbanisatie
Met de aanleg van de Hofplein-spoorlijn (waarop nu RandstadRail metrolijn E wordt geëxploiteerd) in 1908 verscheen ook de eerste verstedelijking in de regio. Stedelingen werden door het spoor gestimuleerd om zich in de omliggende dorpen te vestigen, en dan vooral rond de nieuwe stations en bij de bestaande dorpskernen. In Berkel en Rodenrijs bleef nieuwe bebouwing beperkt tot de omgeving van station Rodenrijs. Een eerste wat grootschaliger uitbreiding vond plaats in de jaren twintig langs de Rodenrijseweg, met een reeks vrijstaande en geschakelde middenstandswoningen.

Berkelveld
Rond 1950 ontdekte de Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij (NAM) olie in het Berkelveld in Berkel en Rodenrijs. In 1953 sloeg het er eerste drie putten, Berkel 1 tot en met 3. De opgepompte olie werd met tankwagens via het pompstation Vlaardingen naar de Shell raffinaderij in Pernis gebracht. Deze winning stopte omstreeks 1996/1997. De NAM heeft kort tijd daarna de pijpen verwijderd, de putten afgesloten en het terrein teruggebracht in oorspronkelijke staat. In 1984 ontwikkelde de NAM nog Berkel-4, ze boorde op deze locatie 25 putten. Met jaknikkers werd tot 2013 olie opgepompt uit een aardlaag die zo'n 1.400 meter diep ligt. Het huurcontract liep tot 2018 en de gemeente wilde het niet verlengen, alle nog aanwezige installaties dienden te worden verwijderd. De aardolieputten werden daarop afgeplugd en de jaknikkers werden verwijderd. Als een van de laatst werkende jaknikkers in Nederland, werd Jaknikker BRK-10 uit het aangrenzende Schiebroek in 2014 opgesteld in het Nederlands Openluchtmuseum.

Voormalige gemeente
De gemeente had een oppervlakte van 18,90 km² en telde in juli 2006 20.189 inwoners. Binnen de gemeentegrenzen lagen geen andere kernen.

Het laatste college van Berkel en Rodenrijs werd gevormd door de VVD, de ChristenUnie en de PvdA.

De laatste gemeenteraad was als volgt samengesteld:
 CDA – 7 zetels
 VVD – 4 zetels
 ChristenUnie – 3 zetels
 PvdA – 3 zetels

Q: Authentication of Web API and AngularJS SPA app I have two servers - web and app. The web server (IIS) serves only static files - HTML/CSS/JS. On executing the JS, the client gets the data from the app server (HTTP service using Web API, self hosted with OWIN). I need to bring in authentication so that my data as well as the content is restricted.
I can use SSL, I can pass username / password to the web api, have it authenticated and get back a token. I can pass this token for future web api requests. In my client app javascript (done using AngularJS), I can also maintain info whether the user is authenticated, what roles she has etc. (for user experience). But for security, I need to be able to ensure the html content requested (in the web server) is also having authentication and authorization done. How can I achieve this?
Should I change my app to make the web server call the app server internally rather than from the client? I can use MVC controllers or ASP.NET, but since I was using AngularJS, I thought it is not required, and is kind of a duplicate. Should I ditch pure .html files and move to .cshtml?
How is this done in the Angular + .NET world, when you data comes from a different server than your htmls?

A: We've been using JSONP with REST type api to do cross domain AJAX calls, but our Angular client code is within .cshtml files in a .NET project. Sounds like the simplest solution is to use the app server internally- I would go with that


Incumbent Moncef Marzouki (above) faces political veteran Beji Caid Essebsi in the vote.
TUNIS - Tunisians vote in the second round of a presidential election on Sunday, capping off four years of a sometimes chaotic transition since their country sparked the Arab Spring.
Incumbent Moncef Marzouki faces political veteran Beji Caid Essebsi in the vote - the first time Tunisians will be allowed to freely elect their president since independence from France in 1956.
It was protests in Tunisia and the 2011 ouster of longtime ruler Zine El Abidine Ben Ali that set off the chain of revolts that saw several Arab dictators toppled by citizens demanding democratic reforms.
From Egypt and Libya to Syria and Yemen, violent unrest followed.
But Tunisia has largely avoided the bloodshed that has plagued other Arab Spring states, and its citizens are feeling hopeful ahead of the runoff vote.
"We hope the transition will be over, that the elections will be honest," said 29-year-old student Anissa Yahyaoui. "I hope that everyone will go vote and everything will go well."
Major challenges remain for Tunisia.
The small North African nation's economy is struggling to recover from the upheaval of the revolution and there are fears that widespread joblessness will cause social unrest.
A nascent jihadist threat has also emerged, with militant groups long suppressed under Ben Ali carrying out several attacks including the killings of two anti-Islamist politicians.
The first round of the presidential election, held on November 23, saw Essebsi, an 88-year-old who heads the anti-Islamist Nidaa Tounes party, take 39 per cent of the vote.
Marzouki, a 69-year-old former rights activist installed by parliament two months after December 2011 polls, took 33 per cent.
Essebsi's secular Nidaa Tounes party won parliamentary elections in October and he has emerged as the clear favourite to be Tunisia's next leader, though with reduced influence after constitutional changes stripped the president of many powers.
Nidaa Tounes has said it is waiting until after the presidential vote to start the process of forming a government.
The presidential campaign has been marked by mudslinging, with Essebsi even refusing to take part in a debate with Marzouki, claiming his opponent is an "extremist".
Marzouki first came to power with the backing of the moderately Islamist party Ennahda that ruled Tunisia after the revolution and which came second in the parliamentary vote.
It has refused to back a candidate for the presidential vote but Essebsi insists Marzouki represents the Islamists.
Marzouki in turn accuses Essebsi, who served as a senior official in previous Tunisian regimes, of wanting to restore the old guard deposed in the revolution.
He has even suggested that Essebsi's camp was preparing to "win through fraud" in the election, drawing a shark rebuke from Tunisia's electoral commission.
Results are expected to be announced between December 22 and 24.
Many voters are hoping that whatever the result, Tunisia will see a return to stability after Sunday's vote.
"There have been a lot of shocks and instability, we haven't seen good things," said Salem Zribi, a retired professor.
Experts doubt much will change soon.
Tunisian political analyst Ahmed Manai said the fundamental causes of the revolution -- poverty and unemployment -- have yet to be dealt with.
"It will be difficult because the enormous socio-economic problems will take a long time to be addressed, and unemployment and price increases will continue," he said.
For Manai, the election marks only the beginning of "another period of transition", when Tunisia's new leadership will need to keep up reforms and restore investor confidence in the economy.


Although Dev Bhoomi (Land Of Gods) Uttarakhand has many treks and religious spots to visit, but trekking to Valley Of Flowers along with offering prayers at Shri Hemkund Sahib Ji and Shri Badrinath Ji has its own adventure as well as religious significance.
You can plan this week long journey any time after monsoon, around August and September. I'll guide you here, how can you plan a suitable trip while visiting places including Rishikesh, Joshimath, Auli, Gobindghat, Ghangaria, Valley of Flowers, Sri Hemkund Sahib Ji and Shri Badrinath Ji.
Though I'll be mentioning the accommodation and travel plan, you can of course amend things as per your convenience. Since Delhi is the nearest Metro city, let's begin the journey from here.
Board bus or train in the morning from Delhi for Rishikesh and you'll reach sometime around afternoon. Rishikesh itself a beautiful place to visit, so spend your time visiting Ashrams and of course witness the Maa Ganga aarti at evening.
Get up early and board bus for Joshimath. Start you journey with the morning breeze and after 8-9 hours of hilly journey, you'll reach there around afternoon. It is always suggested to eat light food during travel in hills. You can get Uttarakhand State Roadways buses from Rishikesh to Badrinath or Joshimath early morning (b/w 6-7am). There is no option to reserve your seat online at the moment.
There are many hotels in Joshimath, find one and check-in, or you can stay at GMVN guest house or Manik Resort in Auli (prior booking required as there are limited options to stay in Auli). To reach Auli Bugyal, you can either get ropeway service from Joshimath or take Chair lift from the Guest house.
Auli is a perfect spot for ice skiing and best time to visit is between December-March. Though you can reach Auli by roads, but riding the ropeway will give you 360 degree view of the mighty Himalayas and Nanda Devi Peak, the second highest mountain in India.
You should also visit Narsingh Devta Temple in Joshimath. Spend your evening there at Auli and further relax in Hotel after dinner.
Wake up early with the scenic beauty of Himalayas and now leave for Gobind Ghat by bus or shared taxi, a 30 km journey from Joshimath. After breakfast, here your first trek begin, a 13 km trek from Gobind Ghat to Ghangaria, it'll take approx. 6 hours to finish it and you'll reach there sometime afternoon. Although, shared taxis, horses and even helicopters are available to finish it quick, but trekking has all way different fun. Ghangaria is a beautiful small village on the way to Hemkund Sahib, here you can stay overnight in hotel as well as in camps organized by locals.
As sun rises let's buckle up for a stretch 5 km trek (will take approx. 3 hours) to see the heaven on Earth. Yes! I'm talking about The Valley Of Flowers. I'd actually call it Valley Of Colors, everywhere you can see just red, yellow, blue, green and various colors of nature as rainbow is lying in the valley. Well interestingly, the flowering pattern of this entire valley changes in every few days.
Mark my word, once you see this mesmerizing beauty of nature, you'd like to stay here forever. After spending a couple of hours witnessing this unmatchable beauty of Himalayan valley, time to reach back Ghangaria by evening.
Start your day as early as 7 AM, passing by the beautiful mountains, flowers and waterfalls, you'll reach Hemkund Sahib around noon after finishing 7 kms of trek. Time to take a holy dip at Hemkund Lake and offer prayers at Gurudwara and of course don't forget to taste the Langar.
Situated at an elevation of 15000 feet from the sea level, Shri Hemkund Sahib Ji is a pilgrimage site for Sikhs. Spend your entire day there witnessing the beauty of that place and then reach back to Ghangaria before sun sets.
Start your journey at early morning to reach Gobind Ghat by afternoon, get lunch, a little rest and then step forward towards Badrinath. It is around 30 kms journey, where shared taxis and buses are easily available.
By evening you'll reach Badrinath, find a hotel or homestay, watch the sunset from the mountain and go to sleep after dinner.
Next day early morning, visit the temple of Shri Badri Vishal (dedicated to Shri Vishnu Ji). After Darshan, get breakfast and spend your entire day visiting nearby places including Mana – the last Indian village, only 5 kms from Badrinath. Stay overnight.
Leave Badrinath as early as 7 am to reach Rishikesh by evening 6. Since you'll only have light breakfast and lunch in the entire journey, have your completed dinner a bit early at Rishikesh, do some shopping, if you like and then board bus for Delhi.
Here your journey end with countless memories and amazing experiences of the Himalayan valley!

Mar 3, 2005 | Press Release
Yelena Shuster Wins $100,000 in NBC's 'American Dreams,' Campbell Soup Company and Scholastic National Essay Contest
San Francisco Teen Chosen as Grand Prize Winner
CAMDEN, N.J., March 3, 2005 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ — Yelena Shuster, a
Ukrainian immigrant from San Francisco, has been selected from more than
40,000 teens as the winner of the $100,000 grand prize in a national essay-
writing contest for high school students, sponsored by Campbell's Tomato Soup.
The iconic brand partnered with NBC's "American Dreams" (Wednesdays, 8-9 p.m.
ET) and Scholastic Marketing Partners to provide this opportunity to teens
The essay contest asked participants to describe, "How does your American
Dream compare to that of your parents"? The contest was open to teenagers 13-
18 who are in grades 9-12. Shuster received a telephone call today from
Scholastic alerting her that she had won.
"I am very honored to have been selected as the winner of this contest,"
said Shuster. "I am grateful to Campbell's Tomato Soup, NBC and Scholastic for
their efforts, as the prize money will make it easier for me to work toward
achieving my dreams."
Shuster's first-person essay impressed the panel with her rich and
compassionate tribute to her wise Ukrainian grandmother — or "babushka." A
senior in high school, Shuster plans on studying journalism and English at one
of the several colleges from which she awaits word of acceptance, including
Harvard, Columbia, Wellesley, Stanford, Pomona Colleges, UCLA and the
University of California at Berkeley. What she likes most about "American
Dreams" is the music and "American Bandstand" performances by contemporary
artists who portray classic 1960s icons.
Brittany Snow, who plays Meg Pryor on the "American Dreams" series, will
join executives from Campbell's Tomato Soup and Scholastic at Campbell Soup
Company's world headquarters in Camden, N.J. to award Shuster her $100,000
check. The check presentation will be broadcast during the credits at the end
of the March 9 episode of "American Dreams."
In addition to Campbell's Tomato Soup awarding $100,000 to the grand
prizewinner, Shuster's school, Hebrew Academy, will receive one million
Campbell's Labels for Education(TM) labels.
The essay contest, which launched in August 2004, asked teenagers in
grades 9-12 nationwide to write an essay on "How does your American Dream
compare to that of your parents?" The contest was then mirrored in a storyline
on NBC's "American Dreams" drama series and was promoted nationwide on
Campbell's Tomato Soup cans in addition to being part of a Scholastic in-
school educational program. Representatives from Scholastic, NBC and Campbell
judged the entries.
Scholastic Marketing Partners, a division of Scholastic, that publishes
Instructor Magazine, and develops custom supplementary educational materials
for schools, developed a multi-faceted and interactive program that included
in-school and online curriculum for teachers and for students. These materials
were distributed to more than 11 million teens in 60,000 high school
classrooms.
The effort adds new meaning to enhanced, interactive television and marks
the first time that a television program was wedded to a branded product in
such a partnership. The campaign included a cross-promotional effort that
projected the creative storyline into real-time activity allowing "American
Dreams" viewers to both watch and participate. At the same time, teenagers
around the country were benefiting from an in-school curriculum program that
teaches the history of the period while promoting inter-generational dialogue.
"American Dreams" is from NBC Universal Television Studio. Dick Clark
("American Bandstand"), Jonathan Prince ("Wilder Days"), and David Semel
("Beverly Hills 90210) are the executive producers.

Lee Hsien Loong: The new mutant strain of Omi Keron may force the reopening of the border plan to repeat

According to a report by Singapore's Lianhe Zaobao on the 28th, Singapore's Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said at the meeting of the ruling People's Action Party that morning that the emergence of a new variant of Ome Keron new coronavirus may force Singapore's reopening plan to take a few steps back. But all the efforts made by the government are to be able to safely restore people's lives and in the process, to reduce the number of people who died of illness as much as possible.
Lee Hsien Loong said that Singapore has made great progress in the fight against the epidemic, but people must also be psychologically prepared. There may be more twists and turns in the process.
He pointed out that every crisis is a test of trust. In a public health crisis such as the new crown epidemic, people rely on credible sources to understand the situation and provide guidance.
Lee Hsien Loong reiterated that the whole country must be united and the government must lead the country through the crisis.
"Our measures to fight the epidemic can be effective. One of the key points is that Singaporeans believe in the People's Action Party government and that the DAP government can guarantee everyone's safety and maintain the normal operation of the country." He said, this includes getting infected people to accept it. Appropriate treatment, provide proper care for affected employees and companies when lockdown measures have to be implemented, and ensure that there are goods on supermarket shelves and that basic services will not be interrupted.
He emphasized that people's trust is the government's greatest support in a crisis. The authorities are faced with many difficult and urgent decisions that affect lives and livelihoods, including whether to implement blocking measures, whether to close schools, whether to allow patients to rest at home, and whether Allow people to eat out, and whether to open the border.

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) will resign from two high-profile positions after being sued for retaliation against a staffer, according to a Wednesday report.
The New York Times states Jackson will resign as chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation and temporarily step down from her House Judiciary subcommittee chairmanship.
The Times, citing officials familiar with the matter, reports some of the foundation's board members told Jackson Lee last week that she would face a "vote of removal" if she did not resign.
The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, a nonprofit aligned with the Congressional Black Caucus, offers scholarships and other programs aimed at cultivating political leadership among African-Americans.
Jones later worked for the failed Senate campaign of former Rep. Robert Francis "Beto" O'Rourke (D-TX). A spokesperson for O'Rourke's campaign told BuzzFeed that they were previously unaware of the allegations against Jones and "no longer [have] a relationship" with him.
The plaintiff claims she lost 50 pounds, suffered from mental health issues, and lost wages following the alleged incident. Doe is seeking $75,000 in damages from Jackson Lee's office and the foundation.
The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation vowed in a statement Wednesday to cooperate with an investigation regarding the explosive allegations.
In light of the allegations, Ebony Tucker, a spokesperson for the National Alliance to End Sexual Violence, said that while Jackson Lee has been a "strong ally" of women's rights, the organization can longer support her "continued lead sponsorship" of the Violence Against Women Act reauthorization. "We begin and end all of our work with supporting survivors and support Jane Doe and many others who have been unsupported in their attempts to speak out," said Tucker.
