5 Photography Rules in Qatar
Are you an avid photographer or do you simply take pictures for a hobby? If you're in Qatar, before you take any photos as you hit the streets, you should know the rules and regulations regarding what or what not to take pictures of.
Despite these regulations though, you must give Qatar a chance, since it is loaded with amazing scenery which your lenses shouldn't miss. After identifying the rules, you would know how to go about doing your photography business, and still produce excellent photos at that.
What to Remember When Taking Pictures in Qatar
1. Watch out for the signs
Thankfully, Qatar is not as strict when it comes to taking pictures as some countries. But you do have to be wary of the signs that say "No photography allowed." When entering a store, it is good practice to ask the security guard if you can take pictures. There are stores that prohibit such. You can expect to see photography restrictions in places like official buildings, military camps, industrial plants, etc.
2. Be respectful to the locals
Imagine when you see someone taking a picture of you without your permission. It can be pretty annoying, right? Well, imagine how the locals will feel if you take photos of them just because of how they look, wearing their traditional outfits. Asking will go a long way. Be courteous, but do expect that most locals, especially the women, will decline.
3. Qatar's year-round festivals
Among the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, Qatar aims to be number one as a tourist destination. One way the country has managed to attract countless tourists throughout the year is via loads of festivals held in spacious and iconic areas. If you are an avid photographer, and a street photographer in particular, you must visit during these occasions. You will definitely come across a great shot during the colorful festivities, no matter your subject.
4. Magic hour
The magic hour is what photographers call early sunrise or early sunset. During this time, lighting is really great in Qatar. Several Instagram posts and professional pictures can attest to this fact.
5. Try desert photography
Qatar is well-known for its desert adventure tourist spots. This provides a great opportunity for visitors to try desert photography. With desert photography, you can produce pictures featuring the soft sun, amazing landscape, and beautiful sand. The desert landscape is especially wonderful during sunset.
Are you ready to bring your trusted camera and photography skills to Qatar? With these tips and reminders, taking photos in Qatar will surely be a memorable endeavor.

Fairy Tail RP » North Fiore » Orchidia (Conquered by Kari the Callous) » Orchidia River » the One Place to Start [Arthur]
the One Place to Start [Arthur]
#1Lacie Eventide
Sun's Blessing Magic
Lacie had been in Orchidia for quite time already and had already met quite some people too that were interesting. She sat on the green yet cold ground around the banks of the river. She had no idea what to do today. There was still a lot to do before she planned to leave but it was also a time to rest and see more about the world. She hadn't had time for that much in Orchidia. Or well she didn't made that time.
She pulled up her legs a bit, which wasn't a smart idea for she was wearing a dark blue dress. It was looking like a sailor outfit but than with skirt. Her long straight orange hair was tied with a clip so it wouldn't blow into her face but it was still wipping up and down by the small bursts of wind. She was muttering under her breath, praying to the Divine because there were still a lot of things that she would wanted answered and wondering what she should do. She sighed as she shifted her seat and placed her legs down, it was the smartest with a dress. The floor wasn't even cold, she was sitting here already for twenty minutes and she simply stopped shivering because she got used to the cold wind. Besides she was still wearing a beige trenchcoat. She had fun in Orchidia but wondered if she should go to visit another city. She was a bit done with being alone. She wanted to make friends, but the people that she met, she hadn't seen many more times. Only once.
#2Arthur J. Sokolov
Handbeat Magic
Beast Behavior
Noibat
"Ah crap," Arthur muttered when he realized that he was stuck in yet another tree during their training, the bat companion of his circled around where he dangled from before drifting slightly below to capture the gaze of the beastmaster. The duo was out for a training session where they can discuss some shortcuts that they can train in case of an emergency. Such as just saying "C" meant doing a C around the opponent to get to his behind etc. Their training had only started and no bg progress was made because of Arthur's lack of skill in the physical area. The boy was durable, but no strength was in those bones sadly. After freeing himself from the tree branch and falling on the ground consecutively he turned his back to the river to go back to the open area they had found before. The growl of his bat came to the mages ears quickly and he turned around to see what was going on and was met with the beautiful night sky with colorful stars, accompanied by the serene sounds of the river. In a way, this place was super special for this was where he was given his memories about his name.
When he took a step however he saw a figure, a girl in fact and froze in place. How long was she there? Could she have seen the failure of Arthur dangling from a tree? He didn't want to make things awkward if that was the case and just waved his hand as a hello. "Sorry for the show, hope we didn't disturb you," he told her and allowed Panthello to climb on his head. The bat along with a combat companion, was also a conversation starter.
-Social-
Lacie was actually lost in thoughts about everything the world and thus the Divine would be able to offer to her. Not that she took it for granted. It was something to consider. She sighed again as she wasn't so sure what to do. Again after many months she felt as if she was a bit stuck, mostly in her mind and soul than in the real world. She missed her mother, but she had left her home with a reason. To become better at a lot of things but that was difficult if you didn't have that much ambition. If you weren't that smart and actually not so friendly in her mind. She tried her best, it wasn't her fault, it was her part of Alice. But since her sister was dead, it was all to Lacie being alone. She would get pass that point, eventually at least.
She pulled up her shoulders and her eyes became big when she noticed someone wave at her and in the end talk. She hadn't notice him at all and thus was brought out of her trance and blinked rapidly and stared at him and the bat companion that was with him. She found the companion a bit scary. But that was because she wasn't so good with pets or humans herself, pretty much hidden though. "Oh sorry. I was daydreaming." she looked around, more like afternoon dreaming.. was it already past dinner time? She stood up and dusted off herself from the cold ground, now she noticed again that it was cold. "Hello, I'm Lacie." She smiled, quite proud of herself to not forget to say her name this time.
Arthur was standing sideways with his face turned to the girl that had just introduced herself. He was confused whether he should've just gone away after their talk or stick around more, a scratch of the head would follow as he deemed his first option too rude to apply. He turned to the girl who rose from the ground, Lacie was the name she was bestowed.
He didn't expect such a quick introduction, but then again he had disturbed the girl out a day dream so perhaps her mind was still a bit foggy. "Sorry if I disturbed you," he told her with a smile. He should've relaxed more, take it easy, his life had gained more substance than ever before, a new person to meet wouldn't be so bad. "I'm Arthur, and this is Panthello," he introduced himself and the bat. "Aside from daydreaming, what are you up to here?"
Lacie blushed because it was a bit quiet after she had just given her name. Did she go to fast this time? If she was alone she would have probably muttered again some sort of idiot prayer to herself, to call out herself as idiot, in that manner. She would stamp her feet on the ground and call herself out. But this all she didn't do, she simply smiled sweetly. Everything happened for a reason and she might have been straigh forward this time instead of hanging out in the back as with Aleksandr, Konstantin and Troy but that didn't matter. She would not let it happen again and she learned a little bit from this moment too.
"Oh no it's fine." she said and waved it away that he disturbed her. It was after all her own fault for sitting in a place like this. He introduced himself and his pet, "Hello," she beamed, happy that he said his name as well. She actually really liked the name Arthur. Also because it was easier to remember. She would struggle with Panthello. After that he asked her what she was doing here, "Oh well the city got a bit too busy for me so I went to look for a quiet place to think. You know I've been travelling or well I started and I was wondering where to go next." Not that she planned to leave immediately, she would see how it would all go.
Listening to the girl she had met, who seemed to be unusually happy after Arthur said his name, Arthur tilted his head a bit. Maybe he was just imagining it, but it was as if he had walked past this girl before somewhere else. Oak? That was the only place he had visited intently so far, rest of the places were just walkways.
"That's good," he responded to Lacie after her expositional dialogue. Without thinking he walked near the river and wet his hands a bit to feel the cool. "Quiet places are quite important from time to time, which city do you hail from?" he asked. His art of small talk wasn't the most glorious, but there was time. Nothing was stopping him from a bit of social escapism.
Saying that he wasn't tired would be too much of a good thinking, after his show there. A talk with a stranger near this river could be pretty important for him, who knew. He took off his coat in a single motion and sat down about ten meters away from Lacie, he didn't want her to feel awkward. Putting his coat on his legs, he made a small bed-like place for Panthello to rest on.
Lacie looked at what Arthur was doing, simply because she was already looking in front of her. It wasn't warm here because of the twilight arriving and all but she was fine, she just didn't want to be too close to the river, she could swim but with that was everything said. She nodded slightly to think some more, where to go. She would avoid the North, that was simply a scary place and she nodded to her unspoken statement, "Oh I'm from Magnolia." But there was nothing much in Magnolia for her at this moment. The reason she left was to explore. "And you? Have you traveled a lot?"
She actually liked that she met someone else again. She might stay a bit longer in Orchidia, she had now met 5 people that she actually interacted with and the experiences were more fun than she had hoped. Sure the weird fight between Konstantin and LeeAnn was a bit scary and well the start of her meeting with Troy wasn't really pleasant either but that was soon forgotten because the rest was nice. She looked at Arthur and Panthello and wondered if it would make her travels a lot more fun if she had a companion as well. "You two seem pretty close." she said before she actually thought about it.
It became colder and Lacie decided that it was better if she would leave. She had liked the moment of silence with Arthur, it wasn't as if it was akward or so, it was fine. She liked that including nature and she liked to see his connection with his companion. She thanked him for his company as she decided to walk back to the city and go to the inn. After all she was only wearing a dress, heels and her trench coat, couldn't be really warm now could it.
Exit.

Is Keeping Up With The Kardashians canceled? Fake robbery allegations complicate tidy reality narrative
John October 10, 2016 Controversy, Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Rumors 18 Comments
Yesterday's bombshell report that Kim Kardashian might have faked her Paris robbery in order to generate better ratings for the twelfth season of Keeping Up With The Kardashians has spawned a host of controversy and gossip. Most prominent among the many rumors now surrounding the show is a question once unthinkable where the first family of reality TV was concerned: is Keeping Up With The Kardashians canceled?
Huffington Post was the first to report on the possibility of a fake robbery, though they deleted their story shortly after publishing it. (You can read the original in full here.) According to that story–which has yet to be verified–Kim made a tearful confession, for the show's cameras, that she somehow set up the entire robbery. "I didn't even know what we did was against Paris law," the article quotes her saying. "I just want to rewind my life. I'm not interested in any insurance money now, so people need to get over saying this is illegal." (It appears that reporting a false crime is illegal in France, just as it is in the United States–but, again, it's not clear whether Kim actually did this.) Kim reportedly also said that Kanye West deserves some of the blame for the setup, though it's not clear why.
Currently, Kardashian home network E! has KUWTK on an indefinite hiatus, though the reason the network gave is very different than the one alleged in the Huffington Post story. Shortly after Kim returned to the US, an E! spokesperson told Variety that the show is on hold because of Kim's shaken state, and implied that privacy might be a newfound concern. "Kim's well-being is our core focus right now," the spokesperson said. "No decision has been made as to when production will resume."
KUWTK is set to return with the second half of Season 12 on October 23; at the time of the Paris incident, production on Season 13 had been underway. The family's $100 million contract with E!, which they announced in February of 2015, is scheduled to keep them on the air through 2018. It's not currently known whether the contract contains any type of kill clause or morality clause, under which the network could cancel Keeping Up With The Kardashians–or related spin-offs–and owe the Kardashian family no money.
For what it's worth, Jezebel recently asked four publicists–one each from the entertainment, lifestyle, and music businesses, plus Hollywood–whether, in their professional opinions, the Paris robbery was simply a publicity stunt. All four either said they had a very hard time believing that it could be or denied the possibility outright. "I think that is way too big of a situation for them to make up for press purposes," said Kiara Horowitz, the lifestyle publicist. "I think the Kardashian family is extremely shook up from this. I think Kim will most probably be giving an hour exclusive to one of the top news stations to come out with the story to the public from her experience."
The other three responded anonymously, but shared the same general belief. "We can never dismiss these things," said the music publicist. "First you believe then you investigate. 'Crying wolf' is almost something that seems to have exclusively adhered to women and it needs to end."
The Hollywood PR agent agreed. "I can't imagine Kim Kardashian pulling a Ryan Lochte, so I sincerely hope that this was not something their camp staged. They don't need more press than they already have." That rep added, "The one misstep is the lack of a statement from her rep confirming that she's home safe and would appreciate privacy at this time. To not acknowledge it only fuels the theories that this was fabricated as a plot point for the show."
And the entertainment rep was perhaps the most pointed and specific. But even this person doesn't understand why Kim hasn't made an official statement, either on social media or through her agent:
I don't think this is a publicity stunt at all. If it was a stunt, it was a really stupid one that would only make Kardashian look bad. A good publicist would know that this would only bring negative press. "Why would she carry jewelry that expensive?" "Where was her security?" All the things that are being asked right now. She's going to fashion week. Of course she is bringing jewelry. And much of the jewelry, other than her ring, was likely on loan from a Jeweler and not something she paid for. Three pieces of expensive jewelry would equal about $11 million. It's not like she was traveling with a huge grocery bag of jewels! No sensible publicist or other celebrity rep would stage this. I know who her reps are and none of them are that stupid.

Conversations around renewable energy often overlook biomass, a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels that is proving to be a critical source of energy. Here, Mark Burnett, VP of the Lubricants and Fuel Additives Innovation Platform at global water, energy and maintenance solutions provider NCH Europe, explores the importance of biomass pelleting and explains why maintenance engineers play a pivotal role in the process.
For several years and on multiple fronts, European countries have positioned themselves as global leaders in renewable energy generation and consumption.
Spain is a prime example of this. The country first pledged to be a global green energy leader in 2007 and, a decade on, the country is making significant progress. Between January and August 2016, just under half of Spain's power was renewable according to figures reported by Spanish electrical operator Red Electrica de Espana (REE).
This is welcome progress, as the EU has set Spain a target of generating 20 per cent of its overall energy needs from renewables by 2020. Energy companies in the country share this ambition, with Miguel Ezpeleta, boss of Acciona, believing that the country will achieve 100 per cent renewable energy reliance in the future.
These are just a handful of highlights. Countries such as Germany regularly produce the majority of their energy from renewable sources. With solar and wind power also becoming cheaper than fossil fuels for the first time in 2017, the future seems bright for the industry and for the EU's target of 27 per cent of power from renewable sources by 2030.
Yet the renewables market isn't without its criticism. One notable critic, Spanish economist Gabriel Calzada Álvarez PhD, authored a paper in 2009 that warned of the impact of renewable, or green, jobs on the overall employment market.
While these points can be disputed, they do give rise to concerns about the social impact of renewable energy. As these energies are generated in a significantly different way to traditional fossil fuels, it is difficult to predict the long-term impact of widespread adoption.
This is where the biomass pelleting industry comes into play. Because the generation of power involves the burning of biomass pellets to produce heat and electricity, the process is not too fundamentally dissimilar to traditional fossil fuel power generation.
The key difference is that biomass is more sustainable and environmentally friendly, with plants reporting a significant reduction in carbon emissions of up to 80 per cent.
However, obtaining the pellets for the energy generation process comes with its own challenges. According to the UK's National Energy Foundation (NEF), one tonne of wood pellets produces approximately 4,800kWh of heat, or 17GJ of energy, if burned with 100 per cent efficiency. The NEF also estimates that the typical household may require between two and four tonnes per annum.
Making biomass pellets a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels requires the pelleting process to operate effectively and efficiently on a constant basis. To make pellets, the crushed and chopped materials must be compressed under high pressure, at equally high temperatures and with heavy loads.
It goes without saying that these conditions put considerable stress on the machinery and equipment involved, which also increases the risk of breakage due to wear. Vigilant maintenance engineers will regularly inspect this equipment to ensure it remains operational, but this does not address the underlying issue, which in many cases is lubrication.
The challenge for lubricants used in the pelleting industry is the temperatures they are exposed to. At high temperatures, typical machine lubricants lose viscosity, which weakens the lubricant's ability to create a thin film on surfaces, reduces lubricant longevity and increases wear. Once a lubricant loses too much viscosity, the high pressure of the machinery can displace the lubricant.
Maintenance engineers can prevent this by identifying the signs of frequent wear and specifying an effective lubricant. For the pelleting industry, maintenance engineers must select a high viscosity lubricant, such as NCH Europe's K Nate HV, to ensure protection against abrasive wear under extreme temperatures and pressures.
An effective way of choosing the right lubricant to withstand the operating conditions is to look at its chemistry. For example, NCH Europe uses a calcium-sulphonate thickener, extreme pressure agents and a high-viscosity base oil in its K Nate HV grease. This allows the lubricant to stay in place at high pressures and temperatures of up to 220 degrees Celsius, while also providing anti-corrosion benefits.
Ensuring continuity in the pelleting industry is in the best interests of not only the maintenance engineers and plant managers responsible for the production process, but also for the wider renewables industry.
While clean renewable energies such as solar and wind are gaining traction, there is currently an issue of uncertainty, both in terms of the job market and if energy production can meet requirements consistently. Biomass energy bridges this gap. And with EU countries leading the world in wood pellet usage, proper maintenance of machinery will be pivotal in ensuring a promising future for renewables.

How wonderful is the truth of these words Elihu spoke to Job. They were among the first of many in a speech which led Job to see God more clearly and change his attitude.
Job had troubles and woes indeed. We might say he had good reason to be depressed! Read the chapter. Yet with Elihu's help he learned to get over it.
We are here because God looks outward. He is love. He is the giver of all good gifts and He never stops being this way (1John 14; James1:17).
Jesus looked outward even on the cross when he said, "Father forgive them for they know not what they do" (Luke 23:34).
Our God is so far above us. We, who tend to look inwards, get depressed and harbour a host of negative feelings. But Jesus lives to help us turn around and look outwards with Him. Lets thank God and ask for help to keep looking out!
Thank you for today's Day By Day – a timely reminder (for me) that God is always working on our behalf even when we face difficult times.

A few days ago my aunt, at the wise age of 78, passed away suddenly from pneumonia. Her death stirred a flurry of memories I have from my childhood, when she and my uncle and their five children lived only a few houses away from where my family lived. There were so many wonderful moments from those nine years I spent running in between my home and her's – especially the long summer days my cousin (the youngest of the five), my sister and I spent riding our bicycles, jumping rope, chasing the local ice cream truck and sucking purple ice pops on my aunt's front steps while she kept a close eye making sure we were safe from harm's way.
My aunt was a quiet woman whose purpose was mothering. Her children were her world and she lived and breathed their happiness as her own. She worried a lot – I suppose having five children will do that to you – and she gave all of her time to caring for her family.
As a child I didn't think much of her quietness and of the way she often made herself small in a room. Now, as an adult woman in her late thirties who yearns to pursue endless dreams and passions, I wonder what lived in my aunt's heart. Under all the love and worry and selfless caregiving as a mother, what stories of dreams and adventures did she hold deep within her soul that she never told?
My aunt grew up in a very different era, one that did not value the voices of women. She, like many women born in the 1930's, took on the common role of being a mother and housewife. And in this most beautiful, powerful role, she and many women like her lost their sense of self in the fury of needs of those they cared for.
These untold stories of women and men who have gone before us and of those who presently feel that their story is not worthy of being shared is one of humanity's greatest losses. Each of us has something important to give to the world. It is our journey, our path, our walk through life that is uniquely and entirely ours. We must find the courage to tell our stories as they are as much ours as they are an important piece to our collective humanity.
My aunt is gone. I no longer have the opportunity to sit with her at the dinner table and ask her how her heart feels, what brings her joy, how she wants to be remembered or what she quietly dreamed for herself as a young woman living in Brooklyn in the 1950's… I know she would have loved to have shared if I simply asked.
If someone you know is bearing an untold story, be the person to ask and to offer a moment to listen, to learn, to love. And in turn, let the stories in your heart find their way onto a page or into someone's ear. We are our stories. Let your life be the message you inscribe on the world.


I went about gathering information the same way as I had when I was just trying to understand what ADS was and how it worked compared to other non-lethal weapons; I spent hours reading scholarly articles and military reports. However, in the data collection process I stumbled across a different question that I hadn't considered originally but found very thought-provoking. Sjef Orbons (2010, p. 81) said in his article that the ethicality of "the intentional use of NLWs against non-combatants" should be questioned. This stopped me in my tracks and made me reconsider what NLWs really were. While the word "weapon" is included in the name ("non-lethal weapons"), because their intention/primary function is to NOT kill, I hadn't considered them as weapons when I conceptualized them. Curious, I googled the definition of the word "weapon" and the Oxford dictionary offered this as the primary definition: "A thing designed or used for inflicting bodily harm or physical damage". It didn't specify that weapons had to be made with the intent to kill (a connection my brain had made), and as I thought about the various NLWs I had researched, I realized that most of them were designed to cause enough harm to incapacitate a target, but harm nonetheless. But the ADS didn't fill this definition of a weapon because it left no physical traces or evidence of harm; the painful sensation was just that, a sensation. So I looked at Oxford's secondary definition which defines a "weapon" as "a means of gaining an advantage or defending oneself in a conflict or contest." As broad of a definition as it was, this one could be stretched to include far more than just ADS.
Not only did this create a need for me to reevaluate my definition of "weapons," but it made me wonder who the intended targets of NLWs were. Do NLWs exist just to make sure that if you accidentally shoot a civilian they don't die so that you don't get in trouble, or is the goal to actually decrease death across the board (to injure but not kill your enemies)?
When I took on this project, I thought I would just be comparing statistics or other hard facts to determine whether NLWs like ADS should be pursued and proliferated or not. I definitely did not expect my project to get so ethical/philosophical, but here we are. (I guess this is what happens when you follow the research rabbit hole). Though I didn't seek these questions out, I'm glad I stumbled upon them as I think answering them will be instrumental in increasing my overall understanding on the topic. As I wrap up my research, I will continue looking for pros and cons while holding these deeper ethical considerations in mind.

Home Opinion Why aren't West Ham trying to sign this proven PL striker?
Why aren't West Ham trying to sign this proven PL striker?
Miles Fagge
I want to start this article on a positive note. The transfer window doesn't shut for a long time yet and we've already made some quality signings.
Håvard Nordtveit looks the real deal; he can play both the defensive midfield role, providing depth and competition for Noble, Kouyate and Obiang, as well as centre back, providing cover in case of any injuries.
Sofiane Feghouli is someone who I think will really take the Premier League by storm, providing pace and attacking intent as well as goals, as he demonstrated with some style in our recent friendly against Karlsruher SC. Gökhan Töre has worked with Bilic before and he appears to have been a target since he was appointed, which can only mean good things.
Tying Lanzini down on a permanent deal is crucial – he is already an important player for us and will only improve. As well as this we have made some good additions to our youth set up, including Ashley Fletcher who I will come to later.
Having said that, we are yet to sign a first team striker and are looking short up front. Valencia is just not cut out for the Premier League and looks as though he will be moving on. Sakho is clearly unsettled, and although he is a good player we do not want anyone who does not want to be here.
That leaves Carroll; undoubtedly a top striker but too injury prone to rely on, although I think Antonio would make good striker and it would be worth trying him out there in pre-season.
It's a big season ahead for Andy Carroll…
We look like we will conclude a deal to sign Jonathan Calleri, who will hopefully emulate his fellow Argentinian Lanzini and bring goals and flair to our team. Fletcher, who we signed from Manchester United, has looked very impressive in pre-season and although he's still young, he should be given a chance to prove himself in the first team, where he hopefully can match the achievements of his former teammate Marcus Rashford.
Of the other realistic names we have been linked to I think Wissam Ben Yedder would have been an excellent signing. He bagged a lot of goals for a side who barely escaped relegation in Ligue 1, and has the potential to be very effective for a team like us. But unfortunately Sevilla beat us to his signature.
Despite this, neither Callieri nor Ben Yedder could be classified as the marquee signing our owners have promised, something that has been much publicised but has yet to come to fruition, although not through a lack of trying. We have been linked with Lacazette, Batuashyi and Bacca to name a few, yet we are still looking.
I think it was an error to be so public with our need for a striker and to tell the press that we have £2 million plus to spend. It makes us look desperate and puts clubs we are negotiating with in a stronger position. Still, our owners have done well with signings for us over the last few years and have certainly tried many options, with Bacca seemingly coming the closest to signing before slipping away.
I am not too disappointed to miss out on Bacca – although he's a good striker, the reported fee was a lot for someone of his age and he is unproven in the Premier League.
In light of this, who should we turn to then as our marquee striker signing? I believe there is a strong case to be made for Wilfried Bony. With 35 goals in 70 games for Swansea he can undoubtedly be prolific in the Premier League, and although his stats are not so impressive for Manchester City, he was reduced to a bit-part role and often came on as a substitute.
Taking a less significant role for a team like Man City is no great slight to a players ability; there are only a handful of players in the world who could challenge Sergio Aguero for a starting space, and Iheanacho is a hugely talented young player that would provide stiff competition to many top strikers.
Most players need regular football to find their form and perform at the best of their ability, something Bony did not get at City but would with us.
At 27, he is in the prime of his career and still has at least three or four years left at the top level, meaning any transfer fee would be a good investment. He offers a physicality that would threaten any defence, and a clinical finishing ability that is invaluable in any striker.
Hopefully he could be convinced to join us, as we can most likely meet his wage demands and most players would prefer to be starting games rather than being sat on the bench.
To have Bony up front backed up by an attacking midfield three chosen from Payet, Lanzini, Antonio, Ferghouli and Tore would be a fearsome attacking proposition for any team, and would certainly offer us a lot of goals.
Bony would be a great signing for us, and provide the goals we need to help us build on last year's great campaign.

When it comes to your personal and precious files, it's always best to be safe than sorry. Making backups regularly is not something that people give much thought to and it can often become confusing and time consuming wondering what you have and haven't backed up.
The developers of Comodo BackUp claim that you'll be able to schedule and run backups within 5 minutes of downloading it and for the most part, this is true.
It's a simple case of just picking your source and destination folders, the times you want Comodo BackUp to run and you're ready to go.
The peace of the mind you get from Comodo BackUp means that if the worst was to happen and you either lose or corrupted some of your files, you can retrieve them at the touch of a button with Comodo BackUp.
Comodo BackUp's interface is such that this is a suitable program for beginners and experienced users. You can perform complete file and folder duplication to network or external drives, FTP servers and even CD/DVD writers.
You can perform incremental backups or synchronized backups so that your files are backed up as soon as they are modified.
Comodo BackUp can also make backups that optimize disk space if you're running out although this doesn't actually generate much free space.
The only annoying thing is that sometimes Comodo BackUp kicks-in at inconvenient moments and slows-down your system although if you're looking for a free simple solution to your backup needs, it's a small price to pay.
Comodo BackUp is suitable for both beginners and experienced users alike who need to perform automatic backups and is completely free of charge.
What do you think about Comodo BackUp? Do you recommend it? Why?

Sirin Labs Finney u1 Review - Is it a Good Choice for Crypto?
Dave Miller – Tech Enthusiast & Security Expert – November 11th, 2021
Sirin Labs Finney u1 Average Online Star Rating
As a crypto trader or enthusiast, being able to hold and utilize a crypto phone like the Sirin Labs Finney u1 is extremely exciting. I have been anticipating the debut of the Finney since their initial coin offering (ICO) announcement in 2017.
Sirin Labs, the company behind this technology, is known for creating the safest and most exclusive devices, such as the Solarin, which sells for an average of $14,000. They've now chosen to create a more affordable device intended for consumers who need to store and spend cryptocurrency regularly – Finney.
In addition to being a standard, current-generation smartphone, the Sirin Labs Finney u1 includes a Bitcoin wallet, which sits above the main device as a separate and secure unit. But, even with this well-executed innovation, will the Finney u1 be able to entice the typical punter and pull bitcoin out of the digital shadows? Today, I have the honor to guide you through the cryptocurrency features, camera, and overall smartphone performance.
A wide range of cryptocurrency tools are available
Has a decentralized app store for maximum security
Sirin OS includes a cold-storage crypto wallet that is security-hardened
Solid smartphone platform with a highly secure version of Android
It's difficult to use the cold storage wallet screen.
Text entry is difficult on the second 2-inch Safe Screen
Moderate water resistance
Sirin Labs Finney Price
Sirin Labs is the business that is developing a commercially viable blockchain smartphone. The Finney phone is now available for $900 on Sirin Labs' website, a little discount from the $1,000 MSRP. However, it looks that this lower pricing is only available for a limited period. A 14-day money-back guarantee is included. It'll be offered through Amazon's Launchpad program as well.
The gadget is not offered by carriers but it will work on most GSM networks throughout the world, including those in the United States. Sirin Labs offers a 12-month international guarantee and a 24-month warranty in Europe, which covers any defects but not accidental damage. Because this is a return service, the phone will be returned to Sirin Labs for repair in less than 14 days.
Sirin Labs is not a new company, and the Finney follows in the footsteps of the "Solarin," which was unveiled in 2016 and was the first and most secure blockchain phone. Finney is distinguished from its predecessor in two ways: it is significantly less expensive ($899 versus over $14,000), and it includes a cold storage cryptocurrency wallet that is activated and accessible via a secondary slide-out screen.
With a price tag of $14,000, not many people were able to get their hands on a Solarin, but it did demonstrate that Sirin Labs could provide a blockchain phone, and the Finney now brings the blockchain phone to the public.
Who is the Sirin Labs Finney u1 Phone For?
The Finney is aimed towards a very specific demographic: crypto enthusiasts. The Sirin Labs Finney is a blockchain-ready smartphone that is aimed to prepare every crypto enthusiast for a future decentralized world where cryptocurrency is used to pay for all of our services and goods. Sounds interesting, but cryptocurrency, blockchain, and everything else related to it are quite complicated and not for the fainthearted.
The Sirin OS, which is a "fork" of Google's Android operating system, is one of the technology's pillars. The Sirin OS is a mobile platform that is safe enough for bitcoin storage and uses on mobile devices. The Sirin OS is designed to provide users with the same experience they get on Android smartphones.
Finney users will be able to utilize Google Play and all Android applications with ease but will benefit from the Sirin OS fork's security. Users will be able to view and use digital assets through a familiar smartphone interface allowing Finney to begin mainstream adoption of the cryptocurrency economy and blockchain technology.
The Sirin ecosystem includes a cold storage crypto wallet, encrypted conversations, and access to the Sirin dApp Center on the Finney. The users will also have access to cutting-edge security features like IP Address Hiding, MAC Address Randomization, and the trusted wallet display.
Design and Display
Let's start with Finney's striking appearance. The Finney is a 6-inch smartphone with an 18:9, 1,070-by-2,170-pixel display and a notch on top for the front camera and earpiece. The display is housed in a 74.6mm by 158mm chassis with relatively broad top and bottom bezels.
The Finney can display video in either a horizontal or vertical direction, and the smartphone's angular shape and flat edges make it comfortable to hold. However, because it's a little on the large side, using the back button on the bottom-left of the touchscreen (the only method to go back through webpages) generally requires two hands.
With slightly concave steel sides and tapered glass on the top and bottom, the phone is a massive slab. The Finney's'modern and unique' design is inspired by contemporary sports cars, probably referring to its curved metal edges.
Because there is no separate headphone jack, the Finney comes with a USB-C connector on its base (and a cable in the package) for charging, which may also be used with a supplied dongle to connect earbuds. When you open the nano-SIM port, you'll see a microSD card slot, allowing you to expand the 128GB of internal storage.
The Finney's substantial dimensions are designed to instill strength and safety, and it appears to be bulletproof. The secondary screen placed on the back, which functions as a cold storage crypto wallet, accounts for the device's thickness (about 9.3mm). The speaker grilles on the sides have an autosport vibe to them as well (only the right-hand one has a speaker behind it). The main camera, flash unit, and fingerprint reader are all housed in Sirin Labs' signature shield design at the back.
Sirin Labs Finney Cold Wallet
One of the primary reasons to purchase the Sirin Labs Finney Phone is to keep your crypto safe, and it does it brilliantly. Using the phone's pop-out screen and accessing the hardware has a bit of a learning curve and is a little laborious. You may download a hot wallet to store your cryptocurrencies today if you have a smartphone; however, they are not the safest because your private keys are "stored" by a third party and they are always online.
Sirin Labs took their wallet to a whole new level with this device; the Finney's cold storage wallet is placed behind the phone rather than within the phone's software, which makes the process of holding the funds much safer – to open the wallet, simply swipe it up!
Only blockchain technology is where the Finney phone truly shines. The Finney incorporates the Sirin dCenter, which curates and displays dApps in addition to the built-in wallet. This is also where the promised coin airdrops and Learn & Earn opportunities may be found. Sirin thinks that these opportunities would eventually allow the Finney to pay for itself, although you won't make more than a few dollars in bitcoin right now.
The Sirin Cyber Security Center is located on the Finney and contains a real-time machine-learning-powered Intrusion Protection System, app white-listing, an App Lock function for individual apps (protected through password or fingerprint), secure conversations, and secure email. There's also a Cointelegraph app installed, which keeps you up to date on the newest blockchain and cryptocurrency news.
dCENTER
The dCENTER, which curates a collection of decentralized applications, or DApps, is the second major blockchain feature. These can be used to earn bitcoin or tokens in return for watching videos.
Using the dCentre's 'Decentralized Applications' store was one of the device's main features; using idax exchange on it was simple and a far better experience than I'm used to. With so many DEX (Decentralized Exchanges) popping up, such as the Nash and Binance Dex, it's easy to see where this may lead. Exploring the dCentre is one of the phone's most appealing features.
Performance, Interface, and Camera
The Sirin Labs Finney is driven by a standard set of 2018 flagship phone components and runs Sirin OS, which is a "Google-certified and ultra-secure" derivative of Android 8.1. It has a Snapdragon 845 processor, 128GB of expandable storage, 6GB of RAM, a 12-megapixel back camera with an f/1.8 aperture, and an 8-megapixel front camera with an f/2.2 aperture.
The 6-inch display has an aspect ratio of 18:9 and is surrounded by large bezels and a notch. With a capacity of 3,280mAh, the phone's battery is fairly average. The Finney's second touchscreen, which measures 2 inches and slides up from the device's body like the Oppo Find X's cameras, is the device's most intriguing engineering feature.
The Finney's second touchscreen, which measures two inches and slides up from the device's body like the Oppo Find X's cameras, is the device's most intriguing engineering feature. This step is referred to by Sirin Labs as "warming up" the cold wallet, enabling you to safely transact with other cryptocurrency enthusiasts. The idea of integrating the device's security state to its physical condition is a good one, but it appears to have caused Sirin to create a massive phone.
Safe Screen
The Safe Screen, a monochrome 2-inch PMOLED touchscreen monitor with a 256-by-64 resolution that pulls up from the back, immediately above the shield unit, is Finney's prominent design feature. When the Safe Screen is slid out of view, the bitcoin wallet is activated and securely disconnected from the internet.
Sirin Finney's built-in crypto converter is another prominent feature. It enables users to convert currencies without having to use an internet exchange. Users just choose the target cryptocurrency, the amount of cryptocurrency they wish to sell, and the network fee they want to pay to the transaction's miners.
The faster a transaction is completed, the higher the network cost is. The currency rates are updated every ten seconds, and Sirin, like any other exchange, takes a tiny percentage of each transaction. For the time being, the Finney accepts Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Sirin's own SRN token (more coins will be added in the future). To be clear, you cannot convert cryptocurrencies to legal cash such as dollars or euros using the phone.
I was delighted by the battery life, which is a feature that is very important to me and is frequently the deciding factor in whether or not I acquire a smartphone. The battery would last me two full days on a typical day of using the Finney (emails, calls, social media, and the occasional game/video).
The gadget includes a 3,260mAh battery cell with Quick Charge 4.0, which allows it to charge entirely in around two hours or 50% in about 30 minutes.
The ability to add PIN or pattern protection to particular apps is one of the few user-facing custom features available. There are also a few Sirin apps preloaded, including an antivirus-like cyber defense suite, a crypto app for converting, sending, and receiving cryptocurrency, and a decentralized app store.
Sirin began as a security company dedicated to hardening Android against assaults. When Bitcoin's price skyrocketed in 2017, Sirin OS shifted its focus to blockchain phones, but security remained a top priority.
The Sirin Labs Finney is an intriguing smartphone that might establish a precedent for future smartphones. With the invention of its blockchain cryptocurrency wallet smartphone, Sirin Labs has undeniably contributed to the advancement of the blockchain and cryptocurrency industries.
What remains to be seen is whether or not the phone will be lucrative for the corporation. The Sirin OS is a wonderful opportunity for the corporation, as it allows it to license the safe operating system to other mobile phone manufacturers. I can't emphasize enough how well the Sirin Labs team achieved its goal.
They are the first in the market to properly implement the process of securely holding cryptocurrency in a cold storage wallet, and most significantly, to make it simple for anyone to do so – all through their mobile phone! The phone costs $900 right now and if you're a bitcoin fanatic who has to actively access and keep your coins, it's well worth it.

Why Instagram Captions for Sunset changed their arrangements?
There has been a buzz circumventing the media globe relating to the notable photograph sharing application, instagram. Instagram photograph facebook wishes to win cash using your subtleties without letting you know? Truly, that must not be of any astonishment. Instagram, the conspicuous photograph sharing arrangement that facebook procured for the current year, is the objective of a tornado of shock on twitter and different destinations after an admen in its individual understanding implied that it might utilize regular pictures in ads.
People do not comprehend that instagram does not create any sort of financial worth. Instagram picks not to rely upon ads inside the application to improve singular experience. The business that created it made 0.00 and furthermore yet it had a large number of clients. It bodes well, as there are no promotions or publicized web connects inside the application. Last September, facebook purchased out the business. The money and-stock deal merited 1 billion when it was uncovered in April; however that was up to around 740 million when it was finished because of facebook's dropping stock expense. That is very nearly a 300 million dollar misfortune.
It is not evident that anything substantive has really changed in instagram's fresh out of the plastic new respects to support, which were distributed Monday and go into effect Jan. 16. Like the case beforehand, the arrangement books the privilege to use basic pictures in any sort of issue it enjoys, however the photographic artists keep responsibility for photographs. Obviously, this propelled a media and furthermore social fever as various clients addressed security concerns. Instagram uncovered the alteration in a blog entry, yet at first did not depict its aims. The overhauled terms prescribes that facebook means to coordinate instagram into its promotion serving framework, which can, for instance, publicize a thing by telling clients that their mates like it. This is fairly like facebook's present promotion serving framework. Purchase month to month instagram loves new terms make it clearer that instagram could utilize your photographs to market to amigos rather than a business.
Recently, instagram uncovered that it was miscommunication. Instagram Captions for Sunset really wished to try different components of notices. Sidestepped a shot there, mark zuckerburg. Facebook appears to have really sidestepped a great deal as of late. Inside and out, people are irritated. So daunted, that few tantamount picture sharing applications like the flickr application are accepting critical measures of downloads inside the most recent couple of days. However as everybody ought to comprehend, transferring pictures and data web based trusting it is close to home, is well, neglectful.
