Kohli was asked to reconsider captaincy call, says India's chief selector as ODI squad is named
India's chief selector Chetan Sharma has insisted Virat Kohli was asked to reconsider his decision to step down as the team's T20I captain.
Kohli confirmed before the T20 World Cup that he would leave his role as India skipper in the shortest format, though he does intend to carry on playing in the team.
The 33-year-old also believed he would continue as ODI and Test captain. However, he is now only the skipper for red ball matches, with Rohit Sharma leading the side in limited overs games.
Rohit, however, will not skipper India's white ball side in South Africa, with the batsman missing out due to a hamstring injury, with KL Rahul instead named as captain for the three-match ODI series.
Rahul has never led India before in any format, though he will at least be able to call on the experience of Kohli, who has been included in the 18-man squad and led India to victory in the first Test this week.
While announcing the squad at a news conference on Friday, Chetan was asked if Kohli's claims that he had not been asked to reconsider his decision were true, with those comments having contradicted BCCI president Sourav Ganguly's previous claim.
"When the meeting started, it was a surprise for everybody," Chetan said.
"Because the World Cup is upon you and you hear this news, what will be the reaction of a normal person?
"Everyone who was present in the meeting asked him to reconsider, to rethink; 'We can talk about this after the World Cup'. All the selectors felt this could affect the performance in the World Cup.
Virat Kohli's record as India's T20 captain
"It was told to Virat for the sake of Indian cricket to please continue as captain. It was told to him by everybody available in the meeting. Everybody said that.
"Who will not say that when you hear such news? You will be in shock. What will be your instant reaction? It was a matter of the World Cup.
"We thought let's talk after the World Cup. We told Virat the World Cup is upon us, and everybody requested let's talk after the World Cup.
"But he has his plans. We have to respect his decision. If someone has taken a decision, and he said in the media also, that he was thinking [along these lines] from the time of WTC, but at that time everybody told him to think about it."
Jasprit Bumrah will act as vice captain against the Proteas, while R Ashwin earned a recall for the first time since 2017 and Venkatesh Iyer received his maiden ODI call up.
The ODIs take place on January 19, 21 and 23.
India's squad in full: KL Rahul (capt), Shikhar Dhawan, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, Venkatesh Iyer, Rishabh Pant (wk), Ishan Kishan (wk), Yuzvendra Chahal, R Ashwin, Washington Sundar, Jasprit Bumrah (vice-capt), Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Deepak Chahar, Prasidh Krishna, Shardul Thakur, Mohammed Siraj.

Old Navy is finally bringing back plus sizes to some of its stores
Before, Old Navy's plus collection was only available online.
Old Navy Brings Plus-Size Shops To 75 StoresOld Navy
Aug. 24, 2018, 7:53 PM UTC
By Lindsay Lowe
Online shopping can be convenient, but sometimes it's just easier to shop in the store, where you can see and feel the clothes, mix and match outfits, and try on different sizes until you find the perfect fit.
For years, this hasn't been an option for curvier Old Navy shoppers; the company pulled plus sizes from its brick-and mortar-stores in 2007, and the retailer's specialty plus collection has only been available online since then.
But now, Old Navy is reintroducing plus sizes to select stores. The new plus section carries sizes 16 to 30 and 1X to 4X. Previously, the largest women's size offered in stores was a 20.
Plus sizes are back in Old Navy stores after more than a decade. Old Navy
"We've really doubled down on listening to the customer and making business decisions that address their needs and wants, including this one," an Old Navy spokesperson said in an email to TODAY Style. "Everyone deserves great style in their size whenever, wherever, however they want it."

The plus collection will have its own space within the women's section, and will feature plus-size models and mannequins.

While many customers are excited to finally shop plus sizes in Old Navy stores, some wondered why it had taken the brand so long to reintroduce them after pulling them in 2007.

"You did this before and then made it online only," one shopper commented on Old Navy's Instagram page.
"About 10 years too late. But it's a start," another person wrote.

Eleven years is definitely a long time to wait, but Old Navy says it spent that time improving the design and fit of its plus offerings.
"We decided to pull our plus assortment from stores because we recognized we needed to take a step back and invest in making our plus collections the best they can be," the spokesperson said, adding that their plus collection is "not simply larger sizes of the brand's mainline, but is rather a unique line made to flatter curves and ensure ease of movement."
Up until recently, these jeans were only available online. Old Navy
Many items in the plus collection have wider straps, longer hems, shape-contouring waistbands and other details designed specifically to flatter the curvier shopper.
Old Navy is launching the new plus section in 75 stores around the country, and they are waiting to see how customers respond to the new sizes before expanding to more locations.
"This is just the beginning," the spokesperson told TODAY. "We're approaching this rollout thoughtfully and with intention. We're going to take the learnings along the way and use them to make our new plus shopping experience the best it can be before we roll it out more broadly."

The Gaijin Discount: Trains and People Everywhere!!
Today's word of the day: Eki (pronounced eh-ki) n. (駅) meaning station (as in train station).
Well, I managed the train system today with the caring guidance of my host parents. I did not have the experience of having to figure out my fare and what not, because we went ahead and just bought a Pasmo card. Pasmo is a rechargeable card that you buy at the ticket purchasing machines (also works on buses and in some stores as cash). I don't know about the other stations, but at the Ikejiri Ohashi, there is an English button you can press to proceed through purchasing it. There is a $5 fee when you buy the card, which I believe you can get back if you turn the card back in to some desk at a later date. The card has various amounts you can charge onto it, and it is in fact rechargeable. From what I saw today, about 95% of the people use these rather than the regular ticket, and often just keep them in their wallet or datebook and place that on the sensor. With a regular ticket, you stick it in the slot, but with the Pasmo (or the Suica, which is basically the same thing), there is a sensor on the turnstyles and you just slide your card over that. You slide your card both on the way in and on the way out of the station to allow the machines to calculate your fee from how far you went. The trains were a bit confusing, and where I am has express trains as well as the regular train, which is different, and to switch lines there's numerous escalators and walkways and millions of people, but I can see that, with time, I'll figure it out easily enough. If tourists can do it, so can I. When we got on the train to go to Shibuya station (one of the major stations), the lovely men with white gloves were waiting, lest they need to help pack people into the train cars. And they were dangerously close to needing to. In America, if a train was that packed, no one would attempt to get on, but we managed somehow. At Shibuya we switched to the JR line's Yamamote Line, which was somewhat less crowded, and had the added bonus of making all their announcements in both Japanese and English, as well as having digital screens with both telling you where you're going.
Today we went to Ebisu/Ebisu Garden Place. From the exit, all we had to do was cross the street to enter the area and immediately on the left was the famous statue from the Hana Yori Dango series. Being an absolute retard, I of course forgot to put the card back in my camera and don't have the cord, so the pictures I took today will remain a secret to you, and for that, I'm sorry. It was, in a word though, amazing. Ebisu is a very rich looking area with snazzy shops smacking with European influence and design. There was an Armani jeans store, a McCafe without the McDonalds, and a towering, three story Chateau looking structure in the distance that I'm told is a VERY expensive restaurant. I believe it. Once you go down the walkway to the middle circle (where at Xmas they have a large Xmas tree), to your right is the Ebisu Garden building, and to your right, through a walkway is the Yebisu beer museum. We went to both. The beer museum was interesting, especially if you're a beer fan, and though they have a brochure in English, all the writing and video is in Japanese. At the end of the journey, there is a vending machine where you choose a Yebisu/Sapporo beer type you'd like to try, pay for it and recieve a ticket which you give to the man over at a bar to your left. The tower is huge and I honestly have no clue what's inside it except for that there are restaurants on the 39th floor, as well as windows where you can overlook the entire city. Of course I took unviewable pictures of that too. These restaurants are fancy and expensive, but they weren't open when we went, so I didn't get a peek inside.
After that, we went back onto the train (less crowded this time), and got off at Shibuya, crossing that famously congested crosswalk and entering the 109 building, which is a famous fashion building packed with stores. It was like the mother of all malls. And on the bottom floor to the right is a store that sells some overseas goods like Pringles and American candybars and things, so if you're hankering for something from home, this is perfect for you. So, that concludes the festivities for now, and I'll bring you more of the story as it happens!

It may surprise you that cement is responsible for 7 percent of the world's carbon emissions. That's because it takes a lot of heat to produce the basic powdery base of cement that eventually becomes concrete. But it turns out that simple fibers from carrots could not only reduce that carbon footprint but also make concrete stronger. VOA's Kevin Enochs reports.

Der Guadalmedina (aus dem Arabischen ) ist ein Fluss im Süden Spaniens. Er entspringt auf dem Pico de la Cruz im Gebirgszug von Camarolos auf einer Höhe von 1433 Metern über dem Meeresspiegel. Er hat eine Länge von 51,5 Kilometern bis zu seiner Mündung im Herzen der Stadt Málaga. Auf seiner Route durchfließt er den Naturpark Montes de Málaga. Er spielt in der Geschichte der Stadt eine wichtige Rolle und unterteilt die Stadt in zwei Hälften. Die Altstadt liegt auf der linken Seite.

Stausee und Nebenflüsse
Der Guadalmedina ist ein Fluss, der hohen saisonalen Veränderungen unterworfen ist und fünf Nebenflüsse hat:

 Arroyo de las Vacas
 Arroyo Chaperas
 Arroyo Humaina
 Arroyo Hondo
 Arroyo de los Frailes

Alle diese Flüsse sind die meiste Zeit des Jahres trocken. Der Stausee Embalse de El Limonero versorgt den Fluss Guadalmedina und die Bewohner der Gegend mit Wasser.

Technical Car Experts Answers everything you need: Code p0036 on Mercedes-Benz E350?
You will need to replace the right rear oxygen sensor to repair the fault. You should first check the sensor wiring and make sure that there are no problems with the wiring.
First of all some testing should be done to be sure that the sensor heating element is receiving power. The sensor heating element can also be tested with an ohmmeter. Usually the wiring is going to be fine and the sensor will be the problem. Right hand side is viewed standing in back of the car.
A heater fault code simply tests the integrity of the heating element in the sensor.

I occasionally wish I was a super-rich magazine writer that had a business account. That way, I could excuse virtually anything I did on "writing topics"- watching movies, going to shows, drinking exorbitant amounts at fancy bars, going to random foreign countries "just because"- the works. That isn't happening (owning the place you write for negates the fun of handling the money), but recently I took the time to go see the new Bond film everyone is talking about- Quantum of Solace- and try to see what all of the self-proclaimed fashionistas on the internet are raving about.
Quantum of Solace, as you more than likely already know, is the sequel to Casino Royale, the first in the new line of Bond films starring Daniel Craig, the guy most people know for starring opposite of Angelina Jolie in the absolutely horrible Lara Croft: Tomb Raider flick. The movie is essentially about Bond going somewhat (if not all the way) solo as he rages over the death of Vesper Lind (Eva Green) and fights to stop the wannabe environmentalist Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric) from taking over the water supply of Bolivia. If this sounds like one of the most boring James Bond plots yet, you are entirely correct.
The first thing noticeable about the new Bond movies is that Daniel Craig has been outfitted in oldschool British tailoring, as opposed to his predecessor, Pierce Brosnan, who wore Italian cut suits (which were sometimes a bit ridiculous, admittedly). The big name in this new movie is Tom Ford, who did the design for Craig's suits, glasses, and pretty much everything but his underwear- so you know it's going to be stylish.
The "main uniform" of James Bond- the black suit- is back and better than ever. Well tailored and with a clear English cut (three pockets, two buttons, very tight tailoring)- it's all essentially perfect. The lapels are relatively narrow (As are the shoulders, or as narrow as they can get), but the waist is taken in very tightly, which gives the "skirt" part of the jacket a little bit of move. There are no belts whatsoever. The suit is apparently also made with old school mohair tonic fabric- an old 60s fabric that apparently was used to give a more "classic" look, reminiscing back to the Sean Connery days of James Bond.
Craig's suit is not accented with much other than what you might expect- a pocket square and a nice crisp french cuff shirt with cufflinks. Nothing ostentatious at all- hell, even the ties are rather demure. The key theme of the new James Bond via Tom Ford seems to be keeping it low-key- and thus classy. This isn't surprising, considering this seems to be a recurring theme nowadays- but it's interesting to see James Bond, formerly known for heavy italian suits and big watches (and even bigger cell phones) now keeping it minimal.
Bond does change out of the standard black suit, which begins to show the real versatility of the costume designer, Louise Frogley. Bond is also seen in a nice full length double breasted topcoat with the lapels popped (or some form of long black coat, I was barely able to make out what it was), a rather large padded bomber of some sort, and even a dark blue polo with jeans.
One of the most notable changes to Bond's wardrobe are the sunglasses, newly designed by Tom Ford. With a strange bridge bar running from both lenses and slightly turned eye drop style lenses, the silver aviators are anything but traditional. By all means, I personally liked the design, but even on Craig they seemed ever so slightly stupid looking. Too bad.
Overall, Quantum of Solace costume designer Louise Frogley did an incredible job doing what she did– and while the Tom Ford glasses were a bit strange, I felt that the movie all together did a very good job getting the "James Bond Feeling"- something the movie itself, outside of the fashion, kinda failed at doing. I'm still somewhat angry that not only did Bond not use a single useful gadget, but he also seemed to forget to visit Q, or do anything else useful other than go Peter-Parker-in-Spiderman 3 emo. But whatever.
So, what lessons can we learn from Quantum of Solace?
First, go without the belt. I know I've advised against it before, but it seems that it's finally picking up in pop culture enough to go with it safely. Sure, it's been the "correct" way to wear suits for quite some time, but I think it's finally time for a miniature belt-less revolution.
Second off, keep it simple, stupid. Bond is dressed simply for a reason- minimalism is the new maximalism. Go understated, clean, and stylish, and you will always win.
Third off, ties that match your eyes are always good. Craig dons a gray-blue tie that matches his eyes, and you could do very well matching that. For brown eyes, a brown tie may be a bit silly, but a black tie could never hurt.
Finally, no-one can stress the importance of arm candy. Get one or two hot women and have them walk around you periodically. You will always look better.
Yep, that's it. No belt, no tie clip, no expensive jewelry- nothing. The key here is all in the tailoring. Daniel Craig's suit is so damned amazing because it is tailored incredibly well- tight in the stomach, slightly (but not too) loose in the coat skirt, and so well tailored in the pants that it needs neither belt nor pleats. If you want this kind of suit, it doesn't matter too much what you buy so much as where you get it tailored- so start hunting for a good tailor.
Again, very damned simple. The tailoring is the same as the "Bond Suit" above- it's all about making it fit perfectly, so no matter where you get a tuxedo, you're essentially forced to rely on the skill of your tailor to make this look right. Unfortunate, but true.
Chances are, you probably have one or two of the above in your own wardrobe. This isn't a very "James Bond" outfit, but it still can be rocked fairly easily.
Lovely post! You're right, I think everyone has at least one of the above…for me it's "The Polo" one (except for the Aviator Glasses). I simply love it. Overall I think this Bond is much better than the previous one (Pierce).
As usual the latest Bond film was a bit of a fashion show, and did a great job of extolling the virtues of simplicity in dress and timeless formal style. I agree Tom Ford did a great job, all bar the shoulder pads. A bit too strong, traditional Savile Row tailors would opt for a softer shoulder, and Bond is a Brit after all. If you're looking for a good tailor, we make a good replica of Bond's suit in a black Summer Kid Mohair. We're at http://www.asuitthatfits.com if you want to take a look.
What are the bad guy in the James Bond movie sunglass brand. My older son thought they looked cool and wants me to try to find them.
A little research returns the frame design to be "Cutler and Gross 0692".
I think Daniel Craig looks great, his suit looks pretty good as well! My boy friend has just bought a nice suit from a new tailoring company http://www.tailored-suits.co.uk , its not a dark suit like bonds instead it is a light grey but it fits perfectly!
I like everything that's been said here except for one detail: I am 99.5% sure that his suit was not black. It was charcoal (dark grey). And in the suit world the difference between charcoal and black is HUGE. If you look at the ads from the movie that show him standing next to the girl, you can see the difference in color between her black dress and his grey suit.
great suit and I think it is charcoal.I have bought some wool fabric and will have a suit made in vietnam.craig is the bond they should all have been, even connery.good site be here for the next bond.
I must admit, Daniel Craig has bought a different dimensions to James Bond but I still find Sean Connery more Suave.
The suit is actually neither black nor charcoal but midnight blue. The dinner suit (tuxedo) in Quantum of Solace is also midnight blue. Bond would not wear a black suit except for periods of mourning, like in Diamonds Are Forever.

Silent commemoration for Canada Cross attack victims
April 18, 2020	1,192 Views
SILENT and sombre were the centenary commemoration of one of the bloodiest attacks on a Clare community during the War of Independence.
Unfortunately, due to the Covid 19 crisis, plans for the Canada Cross, Miltown Malbay commemoration, as part of Clare's Decade of Centenaries, scheduled for Saturday, April 18, were put on hold. The community was to honour Patrick Hennessy, John O'Loughlin and Thomas O'Leary, who lost their lives at Canada Cross on April 14, 1920. Instead, the victims were remembered in the hearts and prayers of their descendants and the wider community in their homes.
Reflecting on the attack at the time, Dr Michael Fogarty, Bishop of Killaloe, said, "My poor people they have made a Calvary of your little square, but what was meant for a massacre has become a consecration."
The families of the dead and wounded in the attack, the Mid Clare Brigade Commemoration Committee and St Joseph's GAA Club had organised a programme that will be rescheduled when the emergency has passed.
Unknown to the people of Miltown Malbay, the chaotic handling of the Mountjoy prison hunger-strike crisis by the British authorities in Dublin Castle in April 1920 would lead directly to disastrous consequences on the streets of their town. Both convicted and remand Republican prisoners arrested in January 1920 had on April 5, led by Tom Hunter, the journalist Frank Gallagher and Peadar Clancy from Cranny, gone on hunger strike seeking political status. Dublin Castle took a hard line, but when faced by massive demonstrations, vigils in Dublin with family and friends of the prisoners arriving from around the country, the ITGW union organising a one day general strike in support of the strikers, met their demands and the British government agreed to parole for unconvicted prisoners. On April 14 confusion by the authorities reigned, of the 90 prisoners released, 31 were convicted Republicans.
Crowds gathered everywhere to celebrate a victory over the authorities; morale after over a year of war was never higher. At about 5.30pm the news reached Miltown Malbay and the community in common with the rest of the country began to come out onto the streets; the town that had been in darkness during the War of Independence began to light up.
A lighted tar barrel was carried in procession through the town and dropped to burn out in the centre of the square at Canada Cross. A crowd gathered at the burning tar barrel and several patriotic songs were sung and chorused including An Irishman's Toast.
At about 10.45pm, as the huge bonfire blazed, The RIC, fearful of public disorder had sent for military based at the parochial hall. The combined forces approached Canada Cross with fixed bayonets from the RIC barracks at The Square through the town and lined the street at one side from the Market House to Seymour's Medical Hall. The crowd, still singing and celebrating, was oblivious to the approaching police and Highland Light Infantry soldiers.
Captain Ned Lynch Miltown Malbay Company, 4th Battalion Mid Clare Brigade, witnessed the events that followed. "The crowd were good-humoured and were singing songs, but otherwise were orderly and in no way truculent towards anybody. I was 'on the run' at the time and took no part in the proceedings, but I was watching everything from Kinucane's shoemaker's shop about 100 yards away. During the celebrations, a party of seven or eight armed soldiers came along from their post in the Temperance Hall, passed by the crowd and went on to the RIC Barracks. After a short time, the soldiers, accompanied by some RIC men under Sergeant Hampson, left the barracks and headed straight for the crowd. As soon as they reached the outskirts, Sergeant Hampson drew a revolver, while the other policemen and soldiers took up firing positions about him. The sergeant called on the crowd to disperse and simultaneously fired from his revolver. The other police and soldiers also opened fire. People began falling all over the place and there was also a wild stampede. I saw a Volunteer named John O'Loughlin fall within a few feet of the blazing tar barrel. Thinking that he might be burned in the flames, I rushed out of Kinucane's to his assistance. On the way I met Pat Maguire, a local blacksmith, and called upon him to help me to remove O'Loughlin. Though I was not aware of the time, Maguire himself had been wounded through the thigh, but nevertheless he helped me in carrying O'Loughlin up to Kinucane's. Poor O'Loughlin was unconscious. After uttering an Act of Contrition into his ear, another Volunteer named "Dido" Foudy had come along and I dispatched him for spiritual and medical aid. Foudy came back in a few minutes in a most excited state. On his way to the priest's house, he tripped over the dead body of another man who turned out to be Thomas O'Leary, a most inoffensive individual who belonged to no organisation. Foudy was again sent off to complete his errand which he did. In the meantime, I heard that Patrick Hennessy, also a Volunteer, had been killed. I went to his home to which his corpse had just been taken and remained there until the early hours of the morning when I went off to in Ballard for a few hours' sleep. Seven or eight people were wounded as well. For the next few days the enemy forces in Miltown Malbay were confined to barracks. The village was left entirely under the control of the Volunteers. The three men who had been killed received a military funeral attended by Volunteers from all over Clare. The usual route to the graveyard was not taken and the coffins were borne past the RIC barracks and the military post. Outside the latter building the guard turned out and presented arms, but the police did not show their faces Three days after the interment the authorities decided to hold an inquest. The relatives of the deceased refused to agree to the exhumation of the bodies, while any of the British forces, police or military, were present and only consented provided the IRA did the job. The post-mortem examination was performed by Doctors Hillary, Miltown Malbay, and MacClancy, Miltown Malbay. The jury brought in a verdict of wilful murder against Sergeant Hampson and the British forces who assisted him in the shooting. Of course, no punitive action was taken by the authorities against the culprits. Public feeling against the enemy forces became very hostile following these murders in Miltown Malbay. Of their own accord, most of the local shopkeepers refused to supply them with food and drink. This boycott was called off after a few weeks because the enemy was able to obtain all his requirements from Ennistymon, nine miles away."
Without provocation the cold-blooded murder aroused deep resentment everywhere. It galvanised the local I.R.A. and Nationalists as a wave of revulsion and grief swept the town at the indiscriminate brutal murders of the three men by Crown Forces. At the inquest the jury returned the following verdict, "We find that Patrick Hennessy, John O'Loughlin and Thomas O'Leary died as a result of shock and haemorrhage caused by bullet wounds on the night of 14th April 1920 inflicted by men of a patrol consisting of Sgt. James Hampson, Constable Thomas O'Connor, Constable Thomas Kennon, Lance Corporal Kenneth McLeod, Privates William Kilgoar, James McEwan, P. MacLoughlen, Robert Bunting and R. Adams. We find that each of the above-named members of the patrol was guilty of wilful murder without any provocation. We also condemn the other members of the patrol for their action in trying to shield those who committed the murders".
The Dead:

Shangri-La Rasa Sentosa Silver Shell Cafe Meat Fiesta!
Shangri-La's Rasa Sentosa Resort Silver Shell Cafe returns with an exciting deal come each Wednesday with a delectable spread of meats to tantalize the ravenous appetites of all guests. The Meet the Meat fiesta features some of the finest Slow-Roast Tomahawk Veal, Grilled German Sausages and Roast Beef Tenderloin, all in addition to the existing spread of seafood, roast meats, staples, salads and desserts galore. Plus with the restaurant's location at the exquisite Shangri-La off on Sentosa island, dinner here is a getaway from the usual fare of dine and ambience in the city.
The meat counter is strategically located just behind the restaurant's reception area to give incoming guests that first sight at the spread available. With the impressive meats out for display, it was almost too easy not to get caught up in excitement.
The herbed Australian Lamb Racks were some of the loveliest I've tasted. Gritty and well spiced on the outside, a smooth medium rare on the inside, it was a pleasure cutting into the meat.
Top it with some mint sauce for that extra kick and grassy flavour to pair with slight gamey overall taste.
The Roast Tomahawk Veal was also superb. Tender, with that sublime intensity from the meat, the roast goes excellently with a dollop of whipped potatoes and slow roasted vegetables. I might suggest accompanying the portion with some Baked Beef Lasagna to really even things out in full umami brightness.
The station also served Roast Chicken stuffed with all grain, and I don't really recall why I didn't try out this dish. Must have been too full from all the meats. Looks fabulous with the corn and asparagus by the side though.
Still, it was hard not to take notice of the volumous spread of Grilled German Sausages placed next to the pieces of Roasted Pork Knuckle.
The chef delicately sliced off pieces of crispy pork skin with just a little layer of meat to give a varying contrast between both crispiness and an meatiness. The first bite, and it crackles under pressure. Then moving on to the pieces of halved sausages, it was pure heaven to slowly enjoy each portion. It becomes bliss when you bite into the pieces of fat within the sausage as the sudden burst in flavour surprises you in an instant. Though do take note that the sausages can be a tad oily, and I really had to wash things down with a good serving of orange juice.
The buffet does not stop there though, and if you wander further, you could even chance upon chilli crabs. Looks very appetizing though for me, I was more happy visually enjoying the spread.
Yam Ring with seafood – I had to put this picture up as it was the first time I saw the remains of the dish with only the yam ring left. Perhaps it would be a good thing to place a little sign at the counter, indicating that the yam is to be enjoyed with the seafood.
End of dinner with a selection of desserts from the sweet tooth counter. The cakes at Shangri-La are really good, and it would be a real treat to enjoy each piece. Although I do have to admit that the presentation for the desserts could be better envisioned (they might want to replace the sushi counter lookalike refrigerator with something more elegant).
Be entertained with the moving live band performance!
Meet the Meat fiesta at the Silver Shell Cafe is available every Wednesday from 6pm to 10pm. The selection of game is fine, with excellent recommendations for the lamb and veal. It would perhaps be great if the entire buffet spread could up its level a notch or two, more in the presentation department to really let guests go "wow". With an already great ambience to begin with, dining here would be a treat for that nightly getaway.
Thank you Shangri-La Rasa Sentosa for the invitation.

Let's get spooky! Follow this simple step-by-step tutorial by The Poncy Pantry and learn how to create this pumpkin, spider and ghost tassel garland ready for Halloween!
1. To make your pumpkin pom-poms, begin by wrapping the orange wool around a large book approximately 100 times. The more times you wrap the wool around the book the denser the pom-pom will be.
2. Carefully slide the wool off of the book and hold on to one end so that it stays in a loop.Using the same wool, tie around the loop four times to create a wreath.
3. Using the same wool, tie around the loop four times to create a wreath.
4. Cut the loop of wool on the left and right side of where the wool is tied. You should have four woolly bows which when you pick up should form a pom-pom.
5. After you have assembled your pom-pom, thread a piece of green wool through the tied yarn and tie into a bow or double knot it.
6. Trim the wool to create a more rounded shape.
7. Thread another piece of twine or yarn through the tied section of the pumpkin so it is ready to hang on the garland.
8. To create the spiders, use the exact same technique as the pumpkins but using the black wool instead. For the legs, cut black pipe cleaners in half and thread through the tied section, bending them at the end to face down.
9. To create the white tassel for your ghosts, tie the white wool around a smaller book 60 times.
10. Carefully slide the loop off of the book and tie one end with a piece of white yarn. Cut the untied end to create a tassel.
11. Tie another piece of yarn around the head of the tassel and double knot to secure it in place. Trim the ends so they are all symmetrical.
12. After you have attached your twine to the tops of all your pumpkins, ghosts and spiders, attach them to a long piece of twine to create your garland.
13. Hang your garland by the fire place, up the stairs or by the window.

Origin of Satyagraha
He traveled to London to meet the Colonial Secretary of the British Government to present the case of the Indians. But in 1907, the Transvaal Parliament passed what was called the 'Asiatic Registration Act' and it was against the good interests of the Indians in South Africa.
It was, for the Indians, a Black Act, and Gandhi pledged support for the movement of the Indians to oppose the Act. Gandhi criticized the Registration Act and suggested certain amendments. He supported and organized passive resistance, picketing of Permit Offices.
He had read Tolstoy and Thoreau's use of the term 'civil disobedience'. It did not seem to express his concept of ahimsa (non-violence) as a positive use of the phrase 'passive resistance'. The concept was now clearly formulated in his mind, but the word to describe it was wanting.
His cousin Makhanlal Gandhi suggested sadagraha, and Gandhi liked it. But he changed it to satyagraha, which became his famous tool of ahimsa with which he fought not only the British but his own countrymen too to great effect and absolute success.
The British rulers of Transvaal and the government decide to prosecute Gandhi. He was asked to leave Transvaal, which he did not and so he was prosecuted and sentenced for two moths of imprisonment.

Six historic venues on tap for U.S. Amateur starting in 2021
by AmateurGolf.com Staff
see also: U.S. Amateur Golf Championship, Bandon Dunes Golf Resort - Bandon Dunes
Olympic Club (Courtesy of Olympic Club)
The next generation of U.S. Amateur venues has been announced – and it looks a lot like those from generations past. If there's a theme with the upcoming venues, it's history.
The USGA announced sites for the nation's premier amateur event from 2021 to 2026. They include:
2021: Oakmont (Pa.) Country Club
2022: Ridgewood (N.J.) Country Club
2023: Cherry Hills Country Club, in Cherry Hills Village, Colo.
2024: Hazeltine National Golf Club, in Chaska, Minn.
2025: The Olympic Club, in San Francisco, Calif.
2026: Merion Golf Club, in Ardmore, Pa.
It's a lineup of old favorites, and every course has hosted the U.S. Amateur before. In fact, when Merion hosts the 2026 event, it will establish records for most USGA championships hosted by a club (20) and well as most U.S. Amateurs (six). The five-time U.S. Open venue hosted its first USGA event, the U.S. Women's Amateur, in 1904. Hugh Wilson designed Merion's East Course, where Bob Jones won two of his record five U.S. Amateurs (1924, 1930).
"This distinguished group of future U.S. Amateur sites aligns the USGA's oldest championship with courses of historical significance and proven competitive excellence which will be beneficial to both the player and fan experience," said John Bodenhamer, USGA senior managing director of Championships. "Amateur golf is primary to the USGA's mission and the partnerships with these prominent clubs affirm our commitment to supporting and growing amateur competition."
The 119th U.S. Amateur will be played Aug. 12-18, 2019 at Pinehurst Resort & Country Club, in the Village of Pinehurst, N.C., while the 2020 championship will take place at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort, in Bandon, Ore., Aug. 10-16.

Pub of the Year announced today
by Louise Ashworth | Feb 12, 2020 | Awards, News | 0 comments
A perennial gem of a pub that has been in the family for 250 years has been named the best in the country in CAMRA's Pub of the Year competition.
The Bell Inn in Aldworth, Berkshire scooped the top prize after judges praised its strong community focus, relaxed ambience and great beer. The only pub in Berkshire with a Grade-II listed interior, it last won the coveted Pub of the Year title nearly 30 years ago to the day.
CAMRA's Pub of the Year organiser Ben Wilkinson said: "The judges were impressed with how a stranger entering the pub was treated like a regular straight away. It's clear that the local customers use the pub as a community centre as well as a place to drink, and the warm welcome and knowledgeable staff made us feel right at home. Nothing can beat the combination of good beer, great food and warm heritage pub."
The Bell Inn last scooped the award three decades ago, when it was run by the current owner's parents, Heather and Ian Macaulay. Her son, Hugh, was delighted to see the award come home again after so many years.
Manager Hugh Macaulay said: "The Bell Inn has been in my family for 250 years and my mother and father were running it when we last won the award. It's a wonderful thing to be recognised for driving quality year after year. Not much has changed because we have kept our interior unspoilt all this time, and intend to keep it that way for years to come."
Pubs in the competition are selected by CAMRA volunteers and judged on their atmosphere, decor, welcome, service, community focus and the quality of the beer. Runners-up in the competition include the Swan With Two Necks in Pendleton, the George & Dragon in Hudswell and the Red Lion in Preston, Hertfordshire.
The Bell Inn is being presented today with an award for its achievement.

SEC Fixing Edgar Flaw
The SEC's process for disseminating Form 4 filings is being tweaked in order to level the playing field for investors.
Matthew HellerDecember 29, 2014
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is planning to fix a defect in its Edgar public dissemination system that allows some investors to get an early look at potentially market-moving news, the Wall Street Journal reports.
Regulators have been concerned about whether professional traders enjoy an edge over mom-and-pop investors since researchers in October published a study finding that in 57% of insider stock purchases, Form 4 SEC filings were available to at least one paying subscriber of private vendor NTT Data's distribution service before they appeared on Edgar.
The SEC's process for disseminating insider filings was not a "level playing field," the study concluded, citing evidence that investors with early access to data are trading on their timing advantage, sometimes within 15 to 30 seconds of news being posted on Edgar.
According to the WSJ, SEC Chair Mary Jo White told Senate Banking Chairman Tim Johnson, South Dakota Democrat, earlier this month that the agency has reviewed its distribution system and is "implementing an enhancement to our system." The enhancement is "designed to ensure that Edgar filings are available to the public on the SEC website before such filings are made available to [public dissemination system] subscribers."
The SEC expects to complete the review in the first quarter, White wrote in a Dec. 19 letter, and once the fixes are made, "we will continue to monitor our systems to ensure optimal dissemination of Edgar filings to the public."
Concerns over the distribution of information in the U.S. equity market have been magnified by high-frequency trading, which now accounts for as much as half of all stock trades. New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman began an investigation this year into whether the fastest traders were afforded advantages that are unavailable to others.
Form 4 SEC filings are supposed to be transmitted to the EDGAR website at the same time they are distributed by NTT Data. But researchers from the University of Chicago and the University of Colorado found it typically takes about 40 seconds from a filing's acceptance by EDGAR to its initial public availability on the website, opening a window of opportunity for rapid-fire investors.

Why does papers such as Fama and French (2010) and Barras et al. (2010) construct equal weighted portfolio of all funds when they analyse the aggregate performance of mutual funds?
They both report an R-squared of 0.98 by weighting funds equally.
When I do 2000 time series regression for all funds, and calculate the average R-squared obtained from all 2000 regressions, I get an average of 0.81.
But, when I construct an equally weighted portfolio of all 2000 funds (similar to the papers mentioned above), I obtain an R-squared of 0.97.
My main question is why does R-squared increase significantly when I construct an equally weighted portfolio of funds compared to taking the average R-squared of 2000 time series regressions.
The reason is noise. There is much more noise in individual stock returns (or for that matter individual fund returns) than for an overall fund portfolio. In fact an overall fund portfolio should be quite close to the market.
Now, value-weight those stocks and run them on the market factor. Which $R^2$ you get? You get 100%.
It's just about the noise.

Mohan Bhagwat, the chief of RSS recently said that the new generation needs to be taught slogans hailing the country. To this, AIMIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi has said he will not chant 'Bharat Mata ki Jai' even if a knife is put to his throat.
This statement of his drew a lot of criticism by Nationalists across the country; including sharp condemnation from RSS, BJP and Shiv Sena while he stood by his statement made at a public rally.
"I don't chant that slogan. What are you going to do, Bhagwat sahab," the Lok Sabha MP from Hyderabad said at the rally in Udgir tehsil of Latur district in Maharashtra on Sunday.
"I won't utter that (slogan) even if you put a knife to my throat," Owaisi said, amid loud applause from the crowd.
"Nowhere in the Constitution it says that one should say 'Bharat Mata ki Jai'," Owaisi said.
On March 3, Bhagwat had said the new generation needs to be taught to chant slogans hailing mother India, comments which came against the backdrop of the row over alleged anti-India sloganeering on the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) campus.
"Now the time has come when we have to tell the new generation to chant 'Bharat Mata ki Jai' (hail mother India). It should be real, spontaneous and part of all-round development of the youth," the RSS chief had said.
Asked by reporters to comment on the condemnation of his statement, Owaisi said he stood by it, asserting there is no violation of any law or Constitution in what he said.
"Whom is he (Bhagwat) trying to frighten? He can't force his ideology on others," the AIMIM leader said.
Senior Shiv Sena leader and minister Ramdas Kadam said Owaisi should go to Pakistan if he doesn't want to say 'Bharat Mata ki Jai'.
"I have asked Maharashtra government to take action against him," Kadam said.
Anti-Nationalism and shooting anti-national statements seem to have become a fad in our country lately and it is disturbing that somebody who is born of this soil is not proud of this or doesn't want to hail their mother-land. South Report condemns all anti-national statements and sentiments and urges all Indians to be together for a glorious India.


FINAL REVIEW: This product works well as you would expect from ChapStick. I love having two formulas in one product and knowing that I was addressing my lip care concerns 24 hours a day. This would work well for men or women!
ChapStick's NEW Dual Ended Hydration Lock lip balm is here! This product comes just in time for the cooler weather we get in autumn and winter. ChapStick is classic lip care brand so I had high expectations before I even opened the package.
I began testing the Day and Night product this week starting with the night end of the tube. The Night balm has a light chamomile scent and contains natural butters and oils to hydrate your lips while you sleep. Each night that I've applied this product I woke up with soft hydrated lips the next morning. In fact there's a residual amount of ChapStick left so I don't have to apply the Day end until after my morning tea.
The end formulated for the day is unscented and contains SPF12 which means this balm hydrates and protects your lips. I've found the Day Hydration Lock end is great to wear alone or under your favorite lip color. It's also long lasting and the application is very smooth.
Both ends are untinted so guys can also use this product and reap the many benefits of the Hydration Lock line. It's recommended you apply it every two hours but with normal wear you will find it stays on 3-4 hours. ChapStick didn't disappoint with the NEW Dual Ended Hydration Lock product, so glad to have mine!
Click here for more information and coupons!
I love a good everyday beauty product from a brand I know and trust! Thanks to our friends at Smiley, this month I will be testing the NEW Dual-Ended Hydration Lock product line from ChapStick for FREE :) If you are a fan of the original hydration lock line then you'll love getting two premium lip balms in one tube.
ChapStick is offering two options in their dual-ended balms: Day & Night and Moisturize & Renew with unique benefits in each tube. For this sampling I had to choose one but either would be a great pick!
With autumn right around the corner, I can't wait to put this new product to the test and share my product review, video and coupons with all of you. I'll be updating this blog as soon as my kit arrives so hurry back!!!

Q: Unable to resolve java build / Spring First Thing to say, I am a relatively inexperienced programmer.
My task is to import a given gradle project into Spring Boot Tool Suite (sts). I have already download springboot cli, java, gradle. & In the past, I was able to run spring perfectly on another project, unfortunately I had to get my hard drive replaced, so I lost a considerable amount of downloads.
Nonetheless, my issue is two-parted. Firstly, my tool suite (ide? It's basically eclipse) does not recognize my project as a a java project, I have tried many options & the only was to fix that portion is to hardcode org.eclipse.core.javabuilder within the buildCommand tag in my .project file, which I don't remember doing for my last project.

This fixes my java problem, but I still cannot get it running as a spring boot application.
Please help as I am not sure where to continue!!! I need to be able to run this project as a spring boot application for backend services, as I will then be tasked with connecting it to frontend services with vue.js. (Don't worry i got that part)!
Here is my EventRegistration.java file as well

import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;

@RestController
@SpringBootApplication
public class EventRegistrationApplication {

 public static void main(String[] args) {
  SpringApplication.run(EventRegistrationApplication.class, args);
 }

 @RequestMapping("/")
 public String greeting() {
  return "ECSE321 Event Registration Application - Backend base URL.\n"
    + "Use the API methods to interact with the backend!";
 }
}

A: Though I stopped using eclipse but following used to solve situations like this
1.
 - Eclipse ->preferences-->java-->installed JRE --> select a standard vm
(can find here jdk1.8.0_51.jdk/Contents/Home)
2.
 - add the JRE System Library to your project build path
 - right click project > select build path > libraries >
 - if JRE is listed then good otherwise > add Library
 - select JRE library and finish

Small molecule probes to quantify the functional fraction of a specific protein in a cell with minimal folding equilibrium shifts.
Liu, Y., Tan, Y.L., Zhang, X., Bhabha, G., Ekiert, D.C., Genereux, J.C., Cho, Y., Kipnis, Y., Bjelic, S., Baker, D., Kelly, J.W.
Although much is known about protein folding in buffers, it remains unclear how the cellular protein homeostasis network functions as a system to partition client proteins between folded and functional, soluble and misfolded, and aggregated conformations. Herein, we develop small molecule folding probes that specifically react with the folded and functional fraction of the protein of interest, enabling fluorescence-based quantification of this fraction in cell lysate at a time point of interest. Importantly, these probes minimally perturb a protein's folding equilibria within cells during and after cell lysis, because sufficient cellular chaperone/chaperonin holdase activity is created by rapid ATP depletion during cell lysis. The folding probe strategy and the faithful quantification of a particular protein's functional fraction are exemplified with retroaldolase, a de novo designed enzyme, and transthyretin, a nonenzyme protein. Our findings challenge the often invoked assumption that the soluble fraction of a client protein is fully folded in the cell. Moreover, our results reveal that the partitioning of destabilized retroaldolase and transthyretin mutants between the aforementioned conformational states is strongly influenced by cytosolic proteostasis network perturbations. Overall, our results suggest that applying a chemical folding probe strategy to other client proteins offers opportunities to reveal how the proteostasis network functions as a system to regulate the folding and function of individual client proteins in vivo.

New Delhi: Kanhaiya Kumar, former leader of the Communist Party of India (CPI), joined the Congress on Tuesday in New Delhi in the presence of senior party leader Rahul Gandhi. Jignesh Mevani, an independent MLA from Gujarat's Vadgam constituency, also pledged his support to the party, claiming that while he has not formally joined the Congress, he believes in its principles.
Earlier, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi along with Jignesh Mevani and Kanhaiya Kumar arrived at Shaheed park at around 4:30 pm and garlanded the statue of Bhagat Singh, on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Shahid-e-Azam Bhagat Singh.
On being asked about the recent political development in Punjab, Rahul Gandhi evaded the media persons question and proceeded for AICC.
The event was organised by Indian Youth Congress at Bhagat Singh Park at ITO.
Former JNUSU leader Kanhaiya Kumar, had fought the last Lok Sabha elections in 2019 from Begusarai on a CPI ticket but lost to BJP stalwart Giriraj Singh.

Narendra Modi Political Career: He led his party to victory in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections. He is vigorously campaigning for the BJP in the run-up to the general polls.
Narendra Modi is again the BJP's prime ministerial candidate for the upcoming Lok Sabha polls. He is the current Prime Minister of India. A famously good orator, he is also the most followed politician on social media. Before taking over as prime minister, he led the BJP to multiple victories in the state of Gujarat. He successfully led the BJP to its most impressive performance in the 2014 Lok Sabha polls.
Modi was born on September 17, 1950, to Damodardas Mulchand Modi and Heeraben Modi.
Modi has a degree in Political Science from Gujarat University.
Modi joined pro-Hindu Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) organisation in the early 1970s. He worked as an active volunteer of RSS before taking a plunge into politics. He joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in 1987 and a year later was appointed as the general secretary of the party in Gujarat. He is credited with strengthening the BJP in Gujarat. The state got the first ever BJP-controlled government in 1995. The same year Modi was made the of the party's national organisation and 1998 he was chosen as the general secretary. He rose steadily in the party's hierarchy and replaced Keshubhai Patel as the chief minister of Gujarat due to Patel's poor health and falling popularity in the aftermath of massive Bhuj earthquake that killed more than 20,000 people. He fought his first election in 2002 to win a seat in the state assembly. Modi's tenure as the chief minister witnessed achievements as well as controversies. He is often praised for making Gujarat an industrial hub but at the same time criticised for not handling 2002 Gujarat riots properly.
Modi remained the chief minister of Gujarat for four consecutive terms before becoming the Prime Minister. Under his leadership, the BJP won 127 of the 182 Vidhan Sabha seats in Gujarat in 2002. Taking the string of victories further, the saffron party in the state with Modi as its charioteer again emerged victorious in 2007 and 2012. The party got 117 seats in 2007 while it garnered 115 seats in 2012. Modi's leadership skill and pro-development image helped him become the potential candidate for prime minister post in 2013.
Modi has been the BJP's star campaigner since took over the reins of the party. He led his party to a comprehensive victory in 2014 Lok Sabha elections with the saffron party winning a clear majority. The BJP won 282 of the 543 Parliamentary seats. Campaigning for the party in every state election since 2014, he has helped the BJP form governments in the several states of its own or in the coalition. As a prime minister, he has undertaken measures like demonetisation, the introduction of goods and service tax (GST) which earned him praise as well as criticism.
Modi government has been criticised for lack of job generation and farmers' crisis. Despite him holding several rallies in Hindi heartland states -Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan – for the Assembly polls in 2018, the BJP received a setback.
In the run-up to the 2019 Lok Sabha Polls, Modi has been campaigning vigorously for the BJP, seeking a second term as the prime minister. He has been largely successful in keeping his allies together for the upcoming polls. In 2014, he wooed voters by presenting himself as a humble 'chaiwala' taking on the entrenched might of the Gandhi parivar. This time around, he has used Congress president Rahul Gandhi's "Chowkidar chor hai" jibe to project himself as a 'chowkidar' – a watchman -- who will guard the nation against all ills.
According to several opinion polls, the BJP, under the leadership of Modi, is going to emerge as the single largest party falling short of a majority. He stands a good chance of becoming the prime minister for the second time. If he manages to complete the second term, he will be the longest-serving non-Congress head of the government.

2017 Reynvaan Family Vineyards The Co...
2017 Reynvaan Family Vineyards The Contender, Walla Walla Valley Estate Syrah
From: Walla Walla, Washington
Blend: 95% Syrah, 5% Marsanne
Taste and Critical Acclaim: Co-fermented with 5% Marsanne and aged 18 months in 35% new oak, the Syrah-dominated 2017 The Contender is another ruby/purple-hued effort from this estate that offers a complex bouquet of black raspberries, smoked game, spring flowers, and hints of violets. Beautifully textured, medium to full-bodied, and ethereal on the palate, it shines for its complexity and nuances just as much as its richness and length. It's going to evolve for at least 10-12 years.
94+ points, Jeb Dunnuck (Apr 2020)
Impressive for the deep yet polished structure and distinctive crushed rock accents that highlight the richly layered black raspberry, licorice and smoky cracked pepper flavors. Drink now through 2031. 635 cases made.
94 points, Tim Fish, Wine Spectator (Aug 2020)
Bright ruby-red. Reticent aromas of dark raspberry and prosciutto are lifted by topnotes of nectarine and flowers (from the Viognier component?). Thick and concentrated but also juicy on the palate, offering terrific intensity and a touch of sweetness to its flavors of red and black fruits and minerals. Most impressive today on the savory, building finish, which features suave tannins and palate-staining persistence. (this was aged in about 30% new oak, including a puncheon)
93 points, Stephen Tanzer, Vinous (Dec 2019)
Rocks syrah meets a dollop of marsanne in this wine. It smells of creosote branches, tobacco and walnut skin, and tastes of sweet fig and blackberry, with enough acidity to pair with barbecue.
92 points, Patrick J. Comiskey, Wine & Spirits (Oct 2020)
Brooding aromas of sea breeze, umami, olive and struck match are followed by lighter styled olive flavors. Floral notes persist on the finish.
91 points, Sean P. Sullivan, Wine Enthusiast
Pairing: As a general rule Syrah pairs very well with grilled meats, vegetables, wild game, curries and beef stew. Examples include barbecue (especially spareribs), braised beef, chicken & duck (especially barbecued and braised), grilled meats and vegetables, hamburgers (check out J. Kenji López-Alt's recipe for Oklahoma Onion Burgers below), lamb (roast leg of lamb) mushrooms, Osso Bucco, pork, sausage, steaks and chops, and venison. You'll want to avoid certain foods like seafood (sole, shrimp or lobster), delicate dishes, and dishes that incorporate citrus and vinegar.
