Santa Lucía is a simple station that is part of the TransMilenio mass-transit system of Bogotá, Colombia.

Location
The station is located in southern Bogotá, specifically on Avenida Caracas with Calle 45B Sur and Diagonal 46 Sur.

It serves the Ciudad Tunal and Claret neighborhoods.

History
At the beginning of 2001, the second phase of the Caracas line of the system was opened from Tercer Milenio to the intermediate station Calle 40 Sur. A few months later, service was extended south to Portal de Usme.

The station is named Santa Lucía for the neighborhood of the same name located to the west of the station.

On January 6, 2003, an incendiary device exploded near this station. In 2004, three people were injured by shrapnel from a bomb that exploded on a bus that was on the route with Caracas at Calle 47 Sur, one block from the station.

Ziff vs Bungie
Posted by	Frankie at 4/20/2007 11:46 AM PDT
DISCLAIMER: In spite of what Ziff Davis claims in the 1UP show today, the following is what actually took place. I will swear to it on a bible, or in an affidavit. Anyone who follows the Bungie Humpday Challenges knows that Ziff was trying some lame chicanery here. The stats, the timestamps and the data speak for themselves. Not only did they try to count our last "for fun" game as a real one, they neglected to mention that I wasn't even in it, after being ejected by Max Hoberman. But let's not dwell on that now. Just look at the facts. They made a vital mistake. they drew first against superior gunslingers.
GAME ONE!
Game 1 Stats
Team Slayer on Tombstone
4/18/2007, 6:39 PM PDT
Tone: Tentative
Thing about EGM, or let's more properly say Ziff Davis, since this group included Mark and Shoe from EGM, Rob from GameVideos as well as their hairy little talk-monkey, Luke Smith from 1UP.com. And talk he did. About how he was gonna hand our heads back to us on a platter, served with fine French butter.
The thing is, in this first game, they basically didn't. They were playing against myself and Sketch, as well as Max and Shishka from Certain Affinity, and in fact, they tried to call shenanigans on Max and Shishka being in the match, but I think it's important to note than Max and Shishka are an L337 businessman/CEO and an artist, respectively. Not the map or game designers. And another thing - the Ziff boyz had been practising since the maps released. This was our first ever team-up with Max and Shish. For reals.
So it is safe to say, however unlikely it may sound, that Ziff knew the maps way better than at least Sketch and I. And yet, on Tombstone, we served them up cold, like the eponymous frozen pizza. All we did was grab whatever we could find and shoot them with it. A lot of BRs and a lot of grenades. Nobody did any sniper or rocket hogging. It was all manly menz, fighting to the death.
Final Score: 50 - 36 Bungie Wins
GAME TWO!
Slayer on Ivory Tower
Playlist: Arranged Game
Now there's some history here folks. You see, and I'll be blunt, once upon a time, Bungie got spanked in Ivory Tower. By Ziff boyz. They owned us. Not only did they own us, but the mortgage was paid off, they were carrying the deeds and they bought a yacht with the equity. We were hard owned. I don't remember the score. i don't want to. All I remember was the screaming and the owning.
So we flipped it around. We started poorly. They crushed us gently for a bit, like a refrigerator door on a bunny rabbit's head, but we wrestled our way out, and attacked, Night of the Lepus -style. We did what you do on Ivory Tower. We held the high ground, like that emo kid didn't from Revenge of the Sith.
I could hear them crying below, like orphans in the rain, outside the window of a mansion. We didn't even toss them our crusts. Every now and then, a pale-faced, dirty guttersnipe would pop his hydrocephalic head around the corner, and we would put it out of its misery. Revenge is a dish best served awesome.
Score: 50 - 45 Bungie wins
GAME THREE!
Slayer on Desolation
Alright, we lost this. fair and square. They regrouped and fought back as hard as they could. It was academic, of course, since it's a best of three event, but it was a great game. Close as it's possible to get. with eight players running around with 49 kills apiece, any team could have one. In this case, the gods tipped the mana in Ziff's direction and they took it by a margin of one kill.
Score: 50 - 49 - Ziff wins

Bungie.net Set to Read-Only Today
Posted by DeeJ at 1/8/2013 9:07 AM PST
Pardon our dust...
On Tuesday, January 8th, Bungie.net will be set to read-only mode. During this short, preparatory maintenance window, you can browse, but you can't post. We expect the outage to be brief.
Thank you for your patience. If we don't make it back, tell your mother we love her. See you on the other side.
Happy Holidays. Love, Bungie.

We Wish You a Merry Mail Sack
Goodwill towards mail...
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at Bungie. Our cavernous hideout, usually overrun by artists, coders, and designers, is slowly becoming a place of empty chairs and empty tables. Before our beloved partners in crime could flee the scene in favor of their respective family reunions, we gathered around the very last bundle of community interaction that will be seen this calendar year.
The past twelve months have been home to fascinating developments at Bungie. We are thankful. We've marched ever closer toward our fate. There is brilliant light at the end of the tunnel, dear community.
But that is a glorious conversation best saved for another time. For now, let's look back instead of forward.
Let's open the Sack.
Frag Ingot What do you consider to be your greatest accomplishment from this year?
I made it through...
Ben Thompson, Engineer
I wrote lots of cool things for Bungie.next. Maybe DeeJ will tell you more about that soon.
Tom Gioconda, Engineer
I started building a spaceship in my garage, entirely out of spare lawnmower parts.
Dave Mongan, Senior Writer
Deadlift: 325lbs., Squat: 225lbs, Machine Squat: 360lbs. Also, wrote/recorded 13 songs and remixed 2 songs.
Forrest Soderlind, Technical Artist
Professionally, I built a new back end system that (if it works correctly) will make the online experience better for a significant portion of our playerbase, without them ever knowing it is there. Personally, I went on some awesome adventures with my wife this year and didn't get us both killed, or too horribly lost.
Michael Williams, Engineer
Marriage!
Robert Kehoe, BVT Tester
Creating the next generation of the internal tools for Bungie.Next. They ain't pretty, but they get the job done.
Alex Loret de Mola, Engineer
And, the following people on the Bungie Panel for this week counted their great fortune in landing a place on the roster of Team Bungie. This delegation represents only a fraction of the parade of noobs that stormed our front door to help us bring you a new game.
Will Edgette, Engineer
Leland Dantzler, Tester
Doug Juno, Artist
Drew Smith, Producer
David Johnson, Engineer
Mike Shannon, Senior IT Engineer
Chris Owens, Test Engineer
Andy Howell, Matchmaking Test Lead
Hylebos How is the Pentathlon shaping up?
As someone who has been honored with an invitation to serve on the Exalted Winter Pentathlon Committee, I'm one of the few people who can tell you that it's shaping up quite nicely. Our competitors have been partitioned into four warring schools, with Captains assigned to lead each. Events have been chosen, with lieutenants designated to lead each school's respective charge, and commissioners in place to enforce the rules of battle. As the games draw near, we'll treat you to the usual front-row seat, though I suspect the game I'm most anxious to play this year will be zealously guarded from your eyes.
Elem3nt 117 What is your New Year's Resolution?
I resolve to be a little bit more open and transparent with you. If that has you excited, please note that my track record for keeping these annual promises is less than impressive. Let's see if my co-developers are more or less disciplined. What do you have planned for yourselves in 2013, Bungie Panel?
Decimate the competition in the Pentathlon or die trying.
Draw more.
Finish building that spaceship in my garage! Or, give up the ridiculous idea already and waste my free time more wisely.
To get up earlier!
Deadlift: 495lbs., Squat: 405lbs, Bench 250lbs.
Write a book, plant a tree. I can already imagine blank pages and a bare yard.
Christian Diefenbach, Engineering Lead
Don't get suckered into anymore of those crazy "End of the world" doomsday prophesies.
Create more, consume less.
To finally fulfill my resolutions from the last 8 years.
I resolve to be better, stronger, faster.
To not make any more New Year's Resolutions.
Be less tempted by Bungie's free snacks. Who am I kidding?
Ninja Blue Wolf Does Marty do lessons?
You mean music lessons? No. Marty does teach us a lesson from time to time, but they are more in the vein of knowing when to hold 'em – and when to fold 'em. If you don't get the reference, that's an old song about Poker, written by a gambling purveyor of Fried Chicken.
WestCoastRonin If you could remake any Christmas movie and give it a sci-fi setting, which movie would you choose and what would it be like?
I'm pitching a starside reboot of A Christmas Story. My hero, Ralphie_9.6, is an astroclone incepted on an off-world colony who dreams of owning a Red Ryder x-ray cannon. As part of his coming of age, he learns to face off against the Academy's most dreaded bully. Comic relief ensues when he tricks his best friend into sticking his tongue to the cooling towers of the main reactor. For the grand finale, a hoard of feral tusk-wolves make off with the sandtrout that was prepared for the solstice feast of the seventh moon.
The joy of editing this feature is the chance to hoard the best and most obvious answer for one's self. However, in the event that Hollywood rejects my screenplay, here are some alternatives from the Bungie Panel…
If you ask me, Rocky 4 is begging for a sci-fi remake. It's got it all: Good versus evil; hi-tech versus old-school; national pride versus personal determination. Everything is on the line, and it all comes to a head on Christmas Day. Simply set it in an interstellar society, with humans versus aliens and… Ba-da-bing ba-da-boom! Instant, updated holiday classic.
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is a cyborg sent back through time to Santa's workshop (circa 1995) to protect Santa Claus. Sam the Snowborg is on a mission to kill him and alter the future so that Snowborgs rule over all mankind – and Christmas is permanently destroyed. To save the day, Santa and Rudolph must go to the Isle of Misfit Toys Asylum to rescue Mrs. Claus, who was arrested after encountering Rudolph in the prequel.
It's a Wonderful Star Trek Life. I know they kind of already did it in TNG. I guess I just want Star Trek for Christmas.
As Life Day approaches on Tatooine, Emmet Otter and his Ma decide to compete in the Cantina's talent contest. Watch as they face corrupt Hutt judges, and challenge the Empire's most deadly musicians, "The Boba Fett Sarlacc Band". In the end they will learn the true meaning of Life Day, and the true power of the Force.
Mine is more based on a TV show than a movie. Theorizing that one could time travel within his own lifetime, Doctor Sam Beckett stepped into the Quantum Leap accelerator - and vanished. He awoke to find himself trapped in the past, facing mirror images that looked a lot like Santa, and driven by an unknown force to change Christmas for the better. His only guide on this journey is ELF, an observer from his own time, who appears in the form of a hologram that only Sam can see and hear. And so, Doctor Beckett finds himself leaping from life to life, striving to replace bad presents with amazing presents and hoping each time that his next leap… will be the leap home.
I have a visual of people opening their Christmas presents to find face hugger aliens inside.
The first two Die Hard movies could be convincingly set on an inter-planetary colony and a spaceport, respectively. The plot of the second movie even becomes more much plausible in a spaceport.
White Christmas. It's the year 2196, and Lt. Commander Wallace is performing a holiday space symphony for our troops fighting against the mysterious arachnid alien species that has invaded our solar system. He finds himself caught in a web, and about to be eaten by said aliens, before Ensign Davis runs over in the nick of time and saves his life. Their friendship comes to a head years later when their old Fleet Admiral is discovered running a failed tourist vessel orbiting Jupiter. They decide to bring their interstellar cast and crew to revive his chances of success. The plot really doesn't have to change much at all! I suppose one of their love interests could get vaporized by a stray phaser blast as they defend the tourist ship from space raiders.
Yeah, Alex. Because nothing gets people in the Christmas spirit faster than vaporizing love interests.
irishfreak Why won't you return my calls?
Mostly because, for the first time in the years (and years) since I left college and joined The Work Force, I don't have a phone on my desk. That took some getting used to. I remember asking about this on my first day at Bungie. Urk answered my question with a question of his own. "Who would you call?" That stopped me in my tracks. Hello, Internet? It's me, DeeJ.
EZcompany2ndsqd If Santa came down your chimney and you were awake what would you do?
I'd handcuff him to the gas starter, light a candle, and have a long chat about all those years I got ugly sweaters instead of the video games that had been released that season. Perhaps the Bungie Panel will be more forgiving than I…
See if he wanted to play some Farcry 3 coop.
I would thank him for giving me a brand new fireplace.
Offer him a drink.
Release the Krampus!
Demand gifts as payment for intrusion.
We would then engage in mortal combat - Bungie wood n00b sword vs. Santa Sack. Spoiler: Christmas would lose.
Borrow his ride!
Ask if he had a couple hours to babysit.
Wager my soul against a golden fiddle in a Settler's of Catan match. Santa does that right?
Scream like a little girl and run around in circles until the bad man left. Sadly, that's how I deal with most situations.
Offer the man some milk and cookies for installing a chimney in my apartment.
Probably offer him a beer. Cookies and milk probably get old.
DarthCarrick If you could give the Community a present, what would it be?
An exciting new place to call home. Since such things cannot be wrapped, that gift will have to serve another occasion.
Xd00999 You can now un-cancel one television show. What do you choose?
When I do make it to my television, I'm more than likely using it to battle the Internet though the construct of my favorite game. Thus, I am transferring my vote to the Bungie Panel. Have at it, people. What do you wish was still on the idiot box?
I used to work in TV, so that's like asking me to resurrect only one of my deceased friends. Too cruel. Instead, I'll bring to life a baby that was never born: a pilot I wrote called "The War." Imagine the grittiness of "The Wire," set on the coke-frenzied Sunset Strip of the 1980s. It was an intense roller-coaster ride of sex & drugs & rock-n-roll… or at least it would have been, had it ever seen the light of day. Oh well…
I'd pick one of the following:
Bring back Firefly!
Firefly, Duh. (Says the Star Trek fan… I know.. I know..)
Firefly.
Can I choose two? 1) Firefly 2) Farscape.
I'm sure this is the first time someone mentioned this show, but Firefly.
Answers other than Firefly are wrong.
Wonderfalls!
Better Off Ted.
Carnivale on HBO.
Arrested Development.
Deadwood, so I can open a can of peaches.
A Pimpin Lady Why will you not answer my question? I want to know where Bungie hires their non-gaming personnel. Last time I asked this question, you sent me to the job listings page on B.Net. In all my years here, I have never seen non-gaming related listings. I know you guys have to have accountants, HR, health educators, etc. Will you please tell me where the job listings for these people are found?
"Ma'am! I answered your question! I answered the darn... I'm cooperating here!" -Jerry Lundegaard, Executive Sales Manager, Gustafson Motors
It's almost as if our whole team is devoted to the singular cause of making a game. We do have a few people at Bungie who mind the shop while we make the toys. In all your years here, none of them have quit. They really like their jobs. We see to that, personally. If we end up needing more of them, the curious onlookers who pay attention to our Careers page will be the first to know.
Marcellos007 What was the funniest present you´ve got for Christmas?
My father and my sister succumbed to the allure of a home shopping offering on television. One toll-free conversation later, our entire family received the gift of decorative swords. Mine was so decorative, the blade folded under the weight of its own haft when I sank it into the soil of the back yard in a dramatic reenactment of the ending to my favorite Scottish revolution film. Care to recall your own comedic lumps of coal, Bungie Panel?
My dad used to rewrap the board game Balderdash every year and give it to a random member of the family. That was always funny. Plus, it's a good game.
Many years ago, a boss of mine gave me the menu for an adult-entertainment venue called The Chicken Ranch. I never visited the establishment, but I got a lot of laughs out of reading the names of their various "Dishes."
One year, my friends thought it would be a good idea to all get me Hello Kitty themed gifts, including bubble bath that came packaged with warnings about urinary tract infections. Also included was a lantern that had a warning to "not look directly at." So, all of the Hello Kitty gifts where deadly in one way or another. But really, isn't anything to do with Hello Kitty?
Our family has had a habit of wrapping gifts in bizarre ways. I've seen bizarre polyhedral shapes, boxes nested in boxes, and gifts wrapped in twine that has been spliced so there was no end to untie.
A 20 pound wheel of cheese (I used to be a much larger man who loved his cheese).
A Rubik's Cube shaped like Homer Simpson.
My dad gave me Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders. I was 8 and my mom was furious. Dad and I played the heck out of it, though.
Halo biggest fan For all the artists at Bungie: Do any of you frequently go to figure drawing sessions to stay sharp on your traditional drawing skills?
Is this really a question about art? Or, is it more a question about naked people in our studio?
CoRaMo Where is the strangest place you have ever played a video game?
Like so many of you, I was waiting anxiously on the sidelines while Halo: ODST was preparing to drop. Through some magic wielded by the Hand of Urk, I vaulted to the front of a very long line and was the first kid in my zip code to play Firefight in the belly of a military transport vehicle. Moral to the story: Always be nice to your Community Manager. Beat that, Bungie Panel!
The Experience Music Project in Seattle during the Halo 2 launch party. The science fiction museum had only recently gone into the building, and the whole experience was pretty surreal and awesome.
At the Podiatrist, while I was having an ingrown toenail removed. I needed a distraction.
You mean like the backseat of a Volkswagen?
Backseat of a Volkswagen.
I played Inception – The App while I was in Erfoud, Morocco just to unlock the Africa chapter. My wife rolled her eyes, but the camels didn't seem to mind.
On the set of a movie.
In a van heading across the country to get to PAX – part of a caravan called the Cross Country Super Trip. We wired it up to a TV that was fixed into the ceiling, and played it on our two day long trek.
I played Pokemon Silver in an unmarked van, in Ireland, stuck at a sheep crossing while thousands of fluffy things crossed the road for more than 15 minutes (true story).
Do iPhone games on the porcelain throne count?
To most of you, playing in an arcade is probably pretty strange. More people play video games on the toilet via their phones than play in arcades now.
With gaming on cell phones, it doesn't get much more strange than gaming in a public restroom. I'm... not the only one that does that, right?
Some of you are sick. Suddenly, that line that forms outside the Bungie men's room is much less a mystery. Pull your pants up and get back to work. You can launch birds out of slingshots on your own time.
coolmike699 Does Bungie do a secret Santa? Has anyone gotten anything really weird?
Our Secret Santas give presents to the people who need them the most. This year, our tree was decorated with dreams passed along to us from our friends at the Make-A-Wish Foundation. We love making dreams come true at Bungie – the weirder the better.
Duardo What was the best gift ever given to you?
I have everything I want in life: a gaming console, a patient wife who lets me spend a lot of time with it, and a clan of willing killers to carry me to victory. Bungie Panel, can you do a better job of celebrating the spirit of giving?
Not to get all sappy, but a couple years back, my wife gave me a pretty non-traditional Christmas present: a pregnancy test that read positive. Now, a few years earlier I would've freaked out; but timing is everything, and instead I was super excited to know we were expecting a little gamer of our own.
The generosity of my friends. I can be demanding and a bit eccentric/neurotic, but they are all super accommodating.
My life, by my mom and dad. (I know, suck up...)
My first thought was to say "my daughters." Then, I realized they're more like Trojans taking over my world: making me work harder to get them the best life I can, eating away at my idle time with child's play and E rated games, pushing me to better myself and… Yeah, my daughters.
My family once commissioned a custom art piece from one of my favorite artists based on a fictional character of mine. The effort and subtlety needed to gather the information for the commission was as precious as the artwork itself.
The gift of laughter! Yeah, right! That'd be my original 8-bit NES with the Gold Zelda Cart.
My wife built me a cabinet with a mini-fridge, snack drawer, and movie theater style popcorn popper for my home theater room was pretty damned impressive last year.
The gift of life! Hahaha, no. In all seriousness, the Nintendo Entertainment System. It was the beginning of what got me here today.
Being able to work at Bungie.

Friendship of Mythic Proportions
Lean on me...
The Bungie Community is constantly astounding us with their creativity, and their solidarity. Recently, some ancients (who were playing Bungie games before some of their contemporaries were born) banded together to produce a piece of art that would steady a friend in need as he took steps toward a new challenge. Behold the intersection between passion for games and compassion for one's fellow gamer.

The man has his uber-cane! Thanks of course to all of you for creating a wonderful environment for us to form such lasting friendships. Man, are we getting old.
Cheers to the big hearts at Bungie.org.

Q: How do I use the functionality of a Rust crate that has CLAP without using the command line? newbie here, so apologies if this is a stupid question.
I would like to use the functionality of the wagyu crate in my code. This crate has command line functionality, so I can run the code from the command line but I can't seem to reference it from my own code.
I've tried 2 options:

*

*Replicate the input 'clap' is expecting when calling the crate (a struct with arguments)

*Call a specific function from within the crate

For item 2 I have tried:
use wagyu::cli::ethereum;

fn main() {

    let m: String = String::from("sunny story shrimp absent valid today film floor month measure fatigue pet");

    // Returns the address of the corresponding mnemonic.
    let passphrase = "";
    let pathway = "m/44'/60'/0'/0";
    let address = ethereum::from_mnemonic(m, passphrase, pathway);

    println!("phrase: {:?}", address);

When I try to build this code I get the following compile error:
error[E0425]: cannot find function `from_mnemonic` in module `ethereum`
  --> src\main.rs:37:29
   |
37 |     let address = ethereum::from_mnemonic::<>(s, passphrase, pathway);
   |                             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ not found in `ethereum`

But I know from checking the code in the ethereum.rs file that there is a public function called 'from_mnemonic' (defined on line 88).
Does anyone know why I can't call this function? Or alternatively, is there an easy way to use a crate that has a clap dependency without using the command line interface?
Many thanks.

A: The from_mnemonic function should be called like so:
use wagyu::cli::ethereum::EthereumWallet;
use wagyu_ethereum::network::Mainnet;
use wagyu_ethereum::wordlist::English;

fn main() {
    let mnemonic: String = String::from(
        "sunny story shrimp absent valid today. film floor month measure fatigue pet"
    );
    let passphrase = "";
    let path = "m/44'/60'/0'/0";

    let wallet = EthereumWallet::from_mnemonic::<Mainnet, English>(
        mnemonic,
        Some(passphrase),
        path
    ).unwrap()
}

But wagyu::cli::ethereum::EthereumWallet is not pub so you can't just simply do this. You have to download the source of wagyu from github and edit it so wagyu::cli::ethereum::EthereumWallet will be public.
I think the single change you have to make is replacing this (in ethereum.rs):
struct EthereumWallet {

With this:
pub struct EthereumWallet {

Stumbled across a pop-up shop in the City today selling kits/jerseys/knicks/etc which I thought I'd mention in case anyone was interested.
It's mostly road gear but had some MTB stuff. A lot of replica kits (HEAPS of Orica Green Edge) I grabbed some gloves ($12) and some arm warmers ($25).
It's in the arcade at Garema Place. Above the old Magpies club, below the teppanyaki restaurant. I'm not sure how long it's there for.
EDIT - this is all I could find online about it.

James Crossman spent a year playing in the NAPHL for the Rocky Mountain RoughRiders before moving onto the NAHL.
Fresh off of his first victory back as a member of the NAHL's Odessa Jackalopes, defenseman James Crossman verbally committed to play NCAA Division I hockey for Brown University on Thursday night.
The 6'3/195 lbs. defenseman from Cherry Hills, Colorado was a constant force on the blue line last year for Odessa in the NAHL, notching seven goals along with 27 assists for 34 points last season.
During the 2017-18 season, he was also selected to and played in the 2018 NAHL Top Prospects Tournament for the NAHL Selects Red team, where he had an assist in the two games.
During the 2018-19 season, Crossman has excelled in his first two games back notching two goals and an assist for three points so far this season.
Crossman, 19, is a product of the Rocky Mountain RoughRiders in the NAPHL, playing for the 18U team before his rise to the NAHL. During the 2015-16 season, Crossman had 16 points in 25 NAPHL games. He also played in the 2016 NAPHL Top Prospects Tournament.
Overall in 90 NAHL games, Crossman has recorded 43 points with Odessa and the Minnesota Wilderness prior to that.
The Brown University Brown Bears play division 1 college hockey as a part of the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) against other prestigious institutions such as Harvard, Yale, Princeton and Dartmouth.
Crossman's commitment marks the third Jackalope on this year's roster committed to play DI college hockey.


The mortgage process doesn't have to be difficult. With the guidance of our mortgage brokers, you'll be able to navigate the mortgage process in a stress-free manner and get the house you want.
So just what does the mortgage process entail? We'll demystify the process for you so there are no surprises on your route home ownership.
The refinancing process doesn't sound too difficult. You already have a mortgage, replacing it shouldn't be that troublesome, right? When you work with our mortgage professionals we ensure your refinance process runs smoothly.
To better understand the refinance process take a look at our infographic that breaks down the process into nine simple steps.
In South Dakota and many states like Colorado, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Wyoming and North Dakota, loans come in two types – conforming and non-conforming. Frankly, this is the case nationwide. In order to fully understand the difference, you first must know a little bit about Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae are the two government sponsored enterprises (GSEs) that provide liquidity in the mortgage market.
In the United States, a conforming loan is a mortgage loan that conforms to GSE guidelines. In general, any loan which does not meet guidelines is a non-conforming loan. A loan which does not meet guidelines specifically because the loan amount exceeds the guideline limits is known as a jumbo loan.
VA Loans in South Dakota and Wyoming are made to fit the unique needs of Veterans, current military personnel, and in some cases, spouses of veterans or current military personnel.
A VA Mortgage differs to some degree from a standard mortgage. While provided through Affiliated Mortgage, the loan is guaranteed in part by the Department of Veterans affairs. Those eligible for VA loans can have little or even no down payment.
There are a few special considerations for a VA Loan: good credit and enough funds for payment are among them. The expert staff and veterans with Affiliated Mortgage can help answer your questions and determine if a VA Loan is the right loan for you.
Contact one of our Affiliated Mortgage VA Loan officers today to see if a VA Loan is the right loan product for you. We're committed to serving our active duty military, their families, and all veterans.
USDA Loans, commonly referred to as Rural Development loans provide borrows with a variety of attractive benefits if the subject property falls within the USDA RD Home Loan Footprint. Don't worry, our experienced lenders can help you determine if your new home qualifies for a USDA loan with a simple phone call.
USDA loans require no down payment and borrowers may finance up to 100% of the property value. While these loans are attractive, you must meet income restrictions for the county in which your new home is located. Each county has a maximum income requirement however the USDA Home Loan Program does allow for certain considerations. One of the final primary criteria's is that the property be an owner occupied property, investment properties are not eligible.
The USDA Home loan may be an attractive option for you and your family. To determine if you (and your new home) qualify for this exciting opportunity, reach out to one of our highly experienced Affiliated Mortgage lenders.
If you are over the age of 62, you can tap into the equity that you have in your home. By using a reverse mortgage, or a Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM), you can see your monthly mortgage payments reduced, or eliminated all-together.
This specialized loan program lets you keep your home, afford your retirement, and ultimately live the lifestyle that you want to live.
If you qualify, you make a down payment of between 29% and 63% of the purchase price of the home. The balance is covered by your reverse mortgage proceeds (excess proceeds can be used however you wish). As long as you are alive, have paid the taxes, insurance, utilities, and maintenance costs on the home, you get to stay there. The loan is repaid when the last surviving home owner no longer lives in the home.
The HECM is a great tool for many homeowners; get in touch today to see if it's right for you.
Technically speaking, a conventional loan is any mortgage that is not guaranteed or insured by the US government, such as VA, FHA and USDA. Conventional loans offer 2 main refinance types: rate and term refinance and cash out refinance. The rate and term refinance is designed to rewrite a new mortgage at an amount to pay off the existing loan and enough to pay closing costs if desired to add them in. Normally the client will take advantage of lower rates or a shorter-term mortgage with this type of loan. In a cash out refinance the client will be looking to access some of the equity in the property. The equity is commonly used to debt consolidation, buy additional properties, investments, gifts to family members, or whatever reason the clients needs access to equity.
FHA loans typically offer options clients with less than perfect credit situations, higher debt to income ratios or need access to more equity in the home than what a conventional loan would offer. If you are looking to just rewrite the mortgage you have at a lower rate, FHA allows you to do this with very little equity in the property (ie. You don't need to have much equity in the house to qualify for a mortgage). Because FHA loans are insured, lenders can and do offer FHA loans at attractive interest rates and with more flexible qualification criteria. If you are interested in refinancing a home that requires some improvements, there is an FHA loan to address your needs.
VA Loans in South Dakota and Wyoming (why are we mentioning these states?) are made to fit the unique needs of Veterans, current military personnel, and in some cases, spouses of veterans or current military personnel. A VA Mortgage differs to some degree from a standard mortgage. While provided through Affiliated Mortgage, the loan is guaranteed in part by the Department of Veterans affairs. Those eligible for VA loans for a refinance have access to more lending power than any other program. VA is unique as they allow the borrower to rewrite their mortgage note up to 100% of the new appraised value. This give this loan substantial advantages to help clients access equity in the property. VA also offers an Interest Rate Reduction Loan Option also referred to as an IRRL or streamline refinance. This loan is designed to rewrite an existing VA loan at a lower rate or at a lower term (from a 30 year to a 15 year note). This loan is normally accomplished with little documentation and doesn't require an appraisal. . There are a few special considerations for a VA Loan: good credit and enough funds for payment are among them.
USDA Loans, commonly referred to as Rural Development loans have refinance options to rewrite an existing RD loan into a new RD loan. This is another option for a streamline refinance. properties are not eligible.
a- An underwriter at Affiliated Mortgage will confirm all documents provided satisfy loan requirements.
b- The underwriting may request additional documentation.
c- The underwriter will issue an approval, allowing the loan to close.
a- The title company and Affiliated Mortgage will collect all the invoices for the services provided during the refinance process.
b- The title company then takes the money funded by Affiliated Mortgage and pays out all outstanding balances. The title company will get a payoff for any mortgages getting paid off from the new mortgage and make sure they get satisfied.
Work with Affiliated Mortgage to obtain the best financial results and move intro your dream home before you know it.
Get pre-approved without leaving the comfort of your home when you begin the mortgage process with the assistance of an online application.

Town square consultation
Stroud Town Council is holding a consultation drop-in session on Saturday, April 2 from 10 am – 4 pm at the Subscription Rooms.
It will be an opportunity for people to discuss with the design team and consultants the proposed plan to transform the space in front of the Sub Rooms into an attractive town square.
The proposal includes levelling up the area which is currently sloping and enclosing it with seating, planting and a canopy of trees.
It also includes a proposal to improve access to the Sub Rooms by lifting the level of the floor in the entrance hall and removing the internal steps and ramp. There would then be a new ramp from the Kendrick Street side which would arrive at a new platform at the entrance – created by adding a couple of new steps.
The entrance door would be lifted up and the doors rehung. That would mean once you reach the front door of the Subs your journey into the building would be completely flat.
"So far more than 120 people have responded to our online consultation and we are hoping scores more will drop in on Saturday to discuss the proposal with the experts," said Councillor Stella Parkes, Chair of the Town Council Regeneration Committee.
Town square plans revealed for Sub Rooms
"This is very much the first stage of the process and this is the initial design. By sharing your thoughts and asking questions you will play a very active part in shaping this space to ensure it can be accessed and enjoyed by everyone."
The project is planned to be one part of a Levelling Up Fund bid for Stroud town centre, once the Government announces bid criteria, which is expected this Spring.
Stroud District Council is the lead partner in drawing up a bid, with partners including the Stroud MP, Stroud Town Council, Gloucestershire County Council, Network Rail, Great Western Railway, GFirst Local Enterprise Partnership and Stroud & District Chamber of Trade & Commerce.
The consultation period will run until 29 April. People can leave their feedback on the website: https://stroudtownsquare.commonplace.is/
People can also vote on what species of trees they would like to see planted.

Many Joomla Component have there own user registration system. When there are more than one registration system on one website, it create a chaos for users and admins.
JoomlaXi Registration Redirector is a plugin to solve above issue. Using this plugin you can redirect user to one of registration system of your choice.
Please vote for extension and review it, it motivate us to maintain the product.
Thank you for this excellent plugin. I am running Joomla 1.7 and JomSocial. I was baffled why the JomSocial registration process was working sometimes, and not at other times. JomSocial recommended I try this plugin, and I'm very happy I did.
Note: I see where ddt4ever might have had his problem. The first time I installed, I somehow downloaded an older version of the plugin. CRASHED my site completely. Luckily, I always backup before installs. Of course, this was not the plugin's fault...just my own silly error. So, I restored, found the correct version for 1.7 and installed with no problems.
Did exactly what it says, now when someone needs to register it takes them to Jomsoical's registration and not Joomla's registration.
This plugin crashed my whole site. Do not install. I had a beautiful site built, everything work flawlessly until I did the unthinkable. I actually for the first time downloaded a plugin and installed it with out backing up my database and home directory. I never ever do this, but I did! Now im paying for it because of this plugin. I now have fatal error.
Easy to use and works perfectly. It's nice when you can use templates own register buttons, without any hacks. Using this on one site with JomSocial and other site with Community Builder.

Q: Access Control Using User Rights & Groups I have a database that is built from the ground up using MS Access 2007 with VBA running all the scripting (SQL, data validation etc) between the forms, reports and the data tables.  I am trying to put a user access implementation system on the database's landing page. The users can be 1 of 3 groups, an admin(enters system settings, user management), an officer(posts data)  or a manager(views data).
Users are linked to a user group table which has the following:
ID    UserGroupDescription HideOps  HideAdmin HideManager
1     Administrator          TRUE    FALSE       TRUE
2     Operations            FALSE    TRUE        TRUE
3     Manager                TRUE    TRUE        FALSE

I would like to show each group their shortcut only(using a label's .visible property) on the landing page but I am stuck on how to manage the looking up of this data without hardcoding the 3 groups only in a case statement (meaning I have code any additional groups being added).
Is there a way to make the checking of which label to show dynamic? while using the sql user user group approach.

A: In the landing page form's Form Load event, open a DAO.Recordset based on a query of the user_group table. Then use the recordset's HideOps, HideAdmin, and HideManager values to adjust the Visible properties of those form controls.

A: I went with hiding all unauthorised parts using a big label for each group(lblHideAdmin & lblHideOps) :-).  I managed to pass user's group after the login using a TempVar variable and this is loaded at the starting page load event.
The variable hide/show option is then pulled by use of a dlookup as below.
UserGroupId = TempVars![UserGroupId]
Me.lblHideAdmin.Visible = True
Me.lblHideOps.Visible = True

OpStatus = True
OpStatus = DLookup("[hideops]", "tblUserGroupDetails", "Id = " & UserGroupId)
Me.lblHideOps.Visible = OpStatus

AdminStatus = True
AdminStatus = DLookup("[HideAdmin]", "tblUserGroupDetails", "Id = " & UserGroupId)
Me.lblHideAdmin.Visible = AdminStatus

Throughout history, hemp has been one of the most widely used plants on the planet. A valuable natural resource with seemingly endless applications, the history of hemp is both fascinating and enlightening. From its nutritional and health benefits to its use as a textile and paper and its current potential as a new biofuel, hemp's versatility is truly impressive. Add in the fact that it grows almost anywhere with no need for fertilizer or pesticides, providing a host of environmental benefits, and it's easy to see why hemp has been so popular for so long.
It is believed that as long as 10,000 years ago hemp was first used to create cloth. It's first mentioned in written records around 3000 years ago in China, where it was relied on to make rope, shoes, and paper. It was later used in various religious and spiritual ceremonies in the Far East, India, and Africa, frequently burned as incense or ingested to enhance awareness and expand meditation.
In England, Queen Victoria's physician Sir Russell Reynolds actually prescribed cannabis to help her manage her menstrual cramps. In the very first edition of the British Medical Journal, Reynolds described cannabis as "one of the most valuable medicines we possess." In 1621, The Anatomy of Melancholy suggested hemp as a treatment for depression, and in 1764, The New English Dispensatory suggested the application of hemp roots as a cure for skin inflammation.
During the American War of Independence, soldiers were actually paid in cannabis and farmers were encouraged to grow hemp to produce rope, paper, clothing, and ship sails. In 1839, Irish physician William Brooke O'Shaughnessy published his belief that cannabis was an effective treatment for epilepsy, rheumatism, rabies, and tetanus. He also wrote that a tincture of hemp and alcohol ingested orally was a potent painkiller. In Africa, hemp was used to treat both dysentery and fevers, and some tribes today still use it to treat snake bites or ease the pain of childbirth.
Throughout the 19th century, hemp was considered to be a valuable, important crop in the United States, but more recently, the US began to take a different approach to cannabis. During the prohibition era of the 1920s and 1930s, the anti-establishment years of the 1960s, and the American War on Drugs, cannabis took on a negative connotation and was made illegal, making medical applications less readily available. As our increasing understanding of how hemp products can provide multiple products as well as powerful medical treatments becomes more universal, the hope is that more states will legalize all forms of hemp and cannabis.
In the meantime, the sale of CBD oils and other cannabidiol products remains completely legal in the US, making it possible for people to reap the many health benefits and treat a variety of medical concerns safely and effectively.

The Met's Lucia di Lammermoor
Mary Zimmerman's still-fresh production is made fresher still by Shagimuratova's glimmering voice, but the acting disappoints
A review by David Abrams
Above: Luca Salsi as Enrico and Albina Shagimuratova as Lucia
Photos by Cory Weaver/Metropolitan Opera
There's lots of life left in Mary Zimmerman's handsomely staged and remarkably fresh Metropolitan Opera production of Lucia di Lammermoor, which debuted in 2007 with Natalie Dessay in the title role and has been reprised here several times since.
There's lots of life, too, in the voice of Albina Shagimuratova — the title character in the company's 2015 reprisal that opened March 16.
From a purely visual perspective, Shagimuratova may not get everyone's vote for the most persuasive Lucia to have populated a Zimmerman production — which besides Dessay has included Annick Massis, Diana Damrau and Anna Netrebko. Nor is Shagimuratova likely to win any awards for best actor. But if the Russian soprano does not entirely look the part of the fragile vulnerable tragic heroine, she sure does sound it. Of the three Zimmerman Lucias I've heard to-date (Dessay, Netrebko and Shagimuratova), none has surpassed the sheer beauty and agility of the latter's dramatic coloratura soprano.
Donizetti's opera, a perennial favorite since its Neapolitan premiere in 1835, is loosely based on Walter Scott's The Bride of Lammermoor — the historical novelist's 1819 tale of a feuding pair of Scottish noble families, the Ravenswoods and the Lammermoors. (Zimmerman moves the setting a couple of hundred years forward to the Victorian Era.)
Joseph Calleja as Edgardo
Lucia, utterly dominated by her manipulative brother Enrico (Luca Salsi), is forced to agree to an arranged marriage with Arturo (Matthew Plenk) — a wealthy nobleman with good political connections. Enrico is counting on Arturo to rescue him from financial ruin. Lucia, however, loves Edgardo (a Ravenswood, played by Joseph Calleja) and understandably keeps her ongoing rendezvous with her lover secret. When Enrico forges a letter to convince Lucia that Edgardo has abandoned her, the brokenhearted woman reluctantly agrees to the arranged marriage. Later, when Arturo takes his new bride to the bridal bedroom as the wedding guests party downstairs, Lucia goes mad and fatally stabs her new husband. Doused in blood and in the throes of vivid hallucinations, she sings the iconic Mad Scene.
The role of Lucia (Lucy Ashton in Scott's novel) demands more from the voice than Italian bel canto beauty of timbre to pull it off. The singer must have strength, stamina and a dependable top range (Donizetti wrote high Fs, though it's customary for singers nowadays to transpose down to a more manageable E-flat).
Vocally, Shagimuratova has it all — as could be seen early on during the scene at the fountain in the woods outside Ravenswood Castle. Her delicate delivery and superb intonation in her opening numbers (Regnava nel silenzio and the Quando rapita in estasi that followed) put the listener on notice that there would be good things to come. Though one may challenge the merits of her Italian diction (Shagimuratova has an occasional tendency to close off the vowels when descending from high to low registers), there was never a loss of focus in her voice, or in its glimmering tone, throughout the register changes.
By the beginning of Act Two, the only remaining question was whether she would maintain this strength and stamina through the third act Mad Scene. (Spoiler alert: She did.) Shagimuratova remained in strong voice throughout this lengthy number, showing no signs of fatigue — and her final E-flat was firm and secure. She also produced several breathtaking moments with her whisper-quiet phrases.
If singing were all that mattered in opera, Shagimuratova would claim her spot among the most exciting sopranos on today's circuit. But opera is drama as well, and that's where she comes up short. After reading the forged letter, Shagimuratova's character needs to radiate an immediate sense of deep pathos at having been abandoned by Edgardo, yet her porcelain doll face appeared largely bereft of emotion. And at the dramatic moment when unexpectedly confronted by an accusatory Edgardo at the end of Act Two, Shagimuratova could only muster a look of bewilderment, not devastation.
Albina Shagimuratova as Lucia
The rest of the cast also fell short with respect to dramatic integrity, with the notable exception of Joseph Calleja — a consummate artist whose superb singing is just one component in a well-rounded artistic package.
Calleja, showing no apparent signs of the flu that affected his performance at the March 16 opening, sang the role as Lucia's love interest with a handsome and deeply expressive tenor, radiating a steady stream of grief within the timbre of his voice.
Like Pavarotti and Juan Diego Flores, Calleja possesses a unique quality to his voice that cannot be mistaken for any other singer. His tenor exudes such a pronounced degree of emotion and nuance, it occasionally borders on maudlin. One such moment came as he bemoaned his situation at his father's grave before the Sulla tomb ache rinserra, where Calleja's whining seemed just a bit over the top. Still, any overacting on the part of the Maltese tenor proved a welcome contrast from the generally drab dramatic efforts of the other singing actors. (Only Salsi, I felt, was able to pull his weight.)
If the role of Lucia is defined by the Mad Scene, the role of Edgardo is defined by his singing and acting in the third act. And Calleja did not disappoint. His chilling confrontation with Salsi at the opening was gripping, and the tenor had plenty left for his final aria Tu che a Dio spiegasti, which he colored with wistful nuance of voice.
As Enrico, Luca Salsi appeared determined at all costs to project well throughout the large auditorium. Though his voice showed signs of strain at times, Salsi's powerful and fiery demeanor came through loud and clear throughout Act One. In the act that followed, his voice continued to tighten when threatening Lucia in Se tradirmi tu potrai, and he had some ensemble problems keeping in-sync with the orchestra. Still, Salsi's character was commanding and vengeful during his many confrontations with Lucia.
Alastair Miles, as Raimondo, sung the role as Lucia's tutor and protector with a pleasant, if largely under-projected, bass. Though he grew increasingly stronger as the performance unfolded, Miles's voice lacked the depth of what I consider a true bass, and he never sounded entirely comfortable in the low register during the Ah! Cedi, cedi, when he counsels Lucia to abandon Edgardo and accede to her brother's wishes by marrying Arturo. The British bass's great number in Act Three (Dalle stanze, ove Lucia), where his character describes the horrifying sight of a dead Arturo with Lucia standing over him with a bloody knife, could have been more weighty.
Though Arturo doesn't get much time onstage, tenor Matthew Plenk sang his part with a sweet, lyric tenor well suited for bel canto. Perhaps the Met will give him more to do in the future.
Daniel Ostling's details-oriented set design — from the detailed park outside Ravenswood Castle to the impressive winding staircase — is one of the most striking components of the Zimmerman production. Lighting designer T.J. Gerckens's ever-so-gradual crescendo of light in the forest, as daybreak approaches the two lovers' hideaway outside the castle, was breathtakingly effective.
Conductor Maurizio Benini led a well prepared Metropolitan Opera Orchestra with workable tempos for the singers and suitably dramatic accompanied recitatives between arias. The celebrated flute solo played by Denis Bouriakov during the Mad Scene was quite lovely, especially in the duet cadenza for flute and voice. (This was actually interpolated into the opera some 50 years after its premiere, specifically for Nellie Melba.) Equally lovely was Mariko Anraku's mellifluous first act harp interlude during the scene at the park, as Lucia waits Edgardo's appearance.
The men and women's choruses were nicely sung during the celebrations at the castle, such as the Per te d'immenso giubilo and D'immenso giubilo, and they looked rather comfortable in Costume Designer Mara Blumenfeld's mid-19th century Victorian period outfits.
There was a lengthy delay to the start of Act Three following the second intermission. Eventually, an increasingly impatient audience began clapping in unison — prompting an official to come onstage and offer an explanation.
"There are many moving parts to the scenery, and we want to be sure everything is fastened," he announced. "Please be patient for another five minutes."
After an additional 10 minutes or so, a second round of unison clapping swept across the theater until, finally, the show got underway. Good thing. Another five minutes and 2,500 more people would have gone mad.

Premiership Tips - 19th-20th September 2009
Burnley (2.9) Draw (3.4) Sunderland (2.6)
Who'd have thought Burnley would have 6 points considering the nightmare fixture list they had? After the Man U win, the Everton win wasn't too much of a shock. Maybe Burnley are going to do a Stoke and stay up with an amazing home record. I'll not read too much in to the away losses as not many teams gets anything from Stoke, Chelsea or Liverpool. Great expectations for Sunderland. They lived up to it last week with a nice 4-1 win over Hull. I think this game is going to be tougher and I am going to go for the home win, 2.9 at bluesquare
and why not the 1-0 correct score? (8.5 at bluesquare)
Arsenal (1.29) Draw (6.5) Wigan (15)
Arsenal met their match last week at Eastlands, losing 4-2. It could have been all so different if Adebayor would have been sent off for stamping on Van Persie rather than going on to score the 3rd goal. Anyway, Wigan are no Man City and I can't see them troubling Arsenal. The 1.29 best odds at bluesquare
make it fairly obvious. Nothing more to say on this game.
Aston Villa (1.44) Draw (4.5) Portsmouth (10)
I had my doubts about Villa after last season's end of season dip and losing to Wigan on the opening day. 3 wins later though and they look like they will be up there challenging for Europe again. Portsmouth are rock bottom with 0 wins in 5. I can't see them getting anything Villa Park. They just haven't got the players to compete in the Premiership. Home win pays 1.44 at bluesquare
Bolton (2.2) Draw (3.3) Stoke (3.75)
Bolton scored late to get their first 3 points at Fratton Park last week. The game before they were unlucky to lose to Liverpool being twice in front. Stoke were incredibly unlucky not to take a point from Chelsea last week. Malouda scored 4 minutes in to stoppage time. The thing is that Stoke don't travel too well. 1X for me but I will go for the bigger priced draw, 3.3 at Boylesport
Hull (2.4) Draw (3.4) Birmingham (3.25)
These teams look like they could be fighting it out come the end of the season to stay in the Premiership. Hulls, 4-1 defeat at Sunderland wasn't the beating it looks like on paper. First half they matched Sunderland all the way. Its just worrying for Hull they have a -7 goal difference. Fortunately for them, Birmingham have only scored 2 goals and with their injury list, they're unlikely to score one here. I can see a 1-0 or 0-0. I can't see how to play the 1X2 but Hull clean sheet at PaddyPower at 2.88 has a lot of appeal.
West Ham (6.5) Draw (4) Liverpool (1.57)
I think the bookies must be having a laugh here to see who is mad enough to bet on Liverpool at 1.57. Maybe if they made a convincing start but they've been shocking. They beat some nobody team 1-0 in the Champions league on Wednesday. They were 1.10 to win that game. It was a close game too, some 1-0 should be something like 6-0 but this 1-0 was deserved. West Ham are no world beaters but can put up a decent fight. 6.5 is a big price at bet365 for West Ham at home to a Liverpool side that look distinctly average so far.
Manchester United (1.62) Draw (4) Manchester City (6)
I don't understand Man U at all. You think they are struggling and they pull off performance of the year and beat Spurs. Even with 10 men they managed to score. They followed the script in the Champions League, doing just enough to win. They had 1 eye on this fixture I guess. A big blow for City having Adebayor out. This leaves them short of strikers as only Bellemy is definitely fit. I would have gone for the upset but maybe if City had Adebayor. 6.0 is tempting for a side which is looking to break in to the top 4. Would you get that price against any of the other established Big 4 teams? As it is, I am going to go for the home win, pays 1.62 at PaddyPower
Wolverhampton (2.6) Draw (3.3) Fulham (2.9)
Wolves were hammered last week 3-1. It could have been more. To be fair they have had some injury problems so they're not nailed on certs for relegation. Fulham B side drew 1-1 in Sofia on Thursday. They'll play their proper side that beat Everton last week this time round. Fulham good determination and skill to come from behind and win. I am hoping that Fulham are banished their away demons and will win this as they are a better team. Price is 2.9 at Totesport.
Everton (1.83) Draw (3.5) Blackburn (5)
Early days but Everton sit second from bottom. Very similar to last season when they had a slow start. A good result in Europe beating AEK Athens 4-0 but Moyes has had to play more or less his first team. Teams playing European fixtures tend to do worse in the league, I guess due to fatigue and fresher opponents. Blackburn got their first win last week against a struggling Wolves. This could be a turning point for them this season. This fixture last season ended up 3-2 to Blackburn and I can't see why they can't win it again. Away win pays 5.0 at PaddyPower
Chelsea (1.53) Draw (4.3) Tottenham (8)
Chelsea got lucky last week against Stoke. A couple of Stoke injuries took the game in to 8 minutes of injury time in which Chelsea scored. The midweek encounter with Porto sounded like a non-event. A 1-0 win for Chelsea in a dull game. Spurs failed spectacularly in their first big test of the season. 1 up after 1 minute, they still go on to lose 3-1. Man U played their best all season but I would have expected Spurs to put up a bit more of a fight. Some teams bounce back after a beating like that. Last year Spurs did managed to take 4 points in total from Chelsea. Tricky one to call this. I don't think 1.53 is good enough. Looking at some of the other markets, Chelsea to win from behind is 9.5 at PaddyPower. Its happened 3 times already this season. I suppose overs is another bet worth considering, both teams can score freely and if Spurs do get an early goal, its highly likely to be overs. Best price is 1.88 on the Goal line, over 2.5 at Ladbrokes

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Oakland quarterback Derek Carr has faced the Kansas City Chiefs enough times in his bright young career to know what he was going up against on a cold night at Arrowhead Stadium.
It didn"t seem to change anything: He was on the losing end for the fifth straight time.
Carr didn"t have an answer for why the Chiefs seem to befuddle him. Neither did his left tackle, Donald Penn, who lamented the way Oakland struggled to move the ball Thursday night.
Not all of the incomplete passes were Carr"s fault. Seth Roberts only caught two of the nine passes that were sent his way, and he dropped what would have been a touchdown reception that forced the Raiders to kick a field goal instead. Rookie wide receiver Jalen Richard didn"t catch any of the four throws in his direction, and even established players like Michael Crabtree and Amari Cooper struggled.
The Raiders had plenty of other miscues — a botched field-goal attempt, a punt that Tyreek Hill returned for a touchdown. But that didn"t stop Carr from putting the blame on himself.
The result? Four of Oakland"s drives went three-and-out.

I-TIP Definitions
Integrated Trade Intelligence Portal
The date when the measure is put in force, in I-TIP, is well known for trade defence measures (Antidumping, Countervailing, and Safeguards measures); in contrast, it may or may not be notified for SPS and TBT. The measures in agriculture (SSG, TRQ, XS, AMS) are defined in annual periods and here we use the start and the end of the year as in-force date and withdrawal date, respectively.
Intnl.Trade Concepts
Non-tariff measures (NTMs)
Non-tariff measures (NTMs) are policy measures — other than ordinary customs tariffs — that can potentially have an economic effect on international trade in goods, changing quantities traded, or prices or both. Each measure is classified by an NTM code from the UNCTAD Classification of Non-Tariff Measures and has an imposing country, an in-force date, affected countries, affected products, and may have a withdrawn date.
Trade defence measures
There are three types of measures grouped under this name: Antidumping, Countervailing, and Safeguards.
UNCTAD is the principal United Nations body dealing with international trade, investment, and development issues. The primary objective of UNCTAD is to formulate policies relating to all aspects of development including trade, aid, transport, finance and technology. The conference ordinarily meets once in four years; the permanent secretariat is in Geneva.
Sanitary and Phytosanitary measures: Measures notified to WTO as defined in the SPS agreement, particularly the information notified under Annex B Article 5. I-TIP takes them from SPS-IMS system.
Technical Barriers to Trade: Measures notified to WTO as defined in the TBT agreement, in particular the information notified under Articles 10 and 15. I-TIP takes them from the TBT-IMS system.

World of Mathematics on Andrew J. Wiles
Andrew J. Wiles conquered the most famous unsolved problem in mathematics--Fermat's Last Theorem, a conjecture that has frustrated professional and amateur mathematicians for more than 300 years. While the proof was a personal and professional victory of monumental proportions, the lasting value of Wiles' solution is the application of his innovative techniques to a wide range of other problems. Wiles was respected as a talented mathematician well before he announced his triumph on June 23, 1993, at the age of 40. John H. Coates, Wiles' former graduate studies advisor, wrote in Notices of the AMS that by 1986, Wiles already stood "amongst the select few over the last 150 years who have made profound contributions to algebraic number theory." Since proving Fermat's Last Theorem, Wiles has received many prestigious awards, including the Wolf, Schock, and Cole Prizes, and the National Academy of Sciences Award in Mathematics.
Andrew John Wiles was born in Cambridge, England...

Statistics show that the average person walks an approximate 115,000 miles in a lifetime. Unimaginatively, that would be equal to walking around the world four times. Once you factor in the wearing of high heels and pointy toed shoes for women and often heavy and stiff work related foot apparel for men, most all individuals feet really take a beating from day to day. The majority fails to pamper their feet and in all reality this is one part of the body that deserves the most pampering.
Neglecting to care for the feet properly can result in dryness that can eventually crack and be most uncomfortable as well as unappealing. Many find that the best solution to caring for dry feet is the application of foot cream. This not only could be the solution but could also be used before dryness occurs as a method of prevention.
With a very competitive industry hosting many brands, it is difficult to know which one to choose that will be the most effective. Even with so many to choose from there are still only a very few that actually perform in delivering a therapeutic result. Most all foot creams are just basic creams. When choosing a cream for the feet it is helpful to keep in mind that it needs to be more than just a moisturizer.
•	To be highly effective in the treatment of dryness and cracked heels, it may contain Super Sterol Liquid. This liquid helps to rebuild the outer layer of your skin known as the barrier.
•	Many will not only relieve dryness but also soothe foot pain and relax tension by containing the Super Sterol Liquid as well as Peppermint Oil and Eucalyptus. These are excellent for their soothing and cooling effects.
•	Dry feet often are painful and may itch as well. Some creams contain Manuka Oil which acts as an antihistamine in relieving the itching.
•	Another good combination of oils to look for in a cream are Neem and Karanja Oils, however, these oils have a rather offensive aroma unless mixed with Peppermint and Eucalyptus oils.
•	Known for enhancing relaxation as well as being an anti-septic with anti-inflammatory and purifying benefits, Lavender Essential Oil is not only beneficial to dry feet but also helpful in relaxing the tension of the overworked foot.
It may take a few different brands before an individual finds the foot cream that works the best for the condition of their feet. Most experts agree that everyone should use some sort of cream on the feet each day. Delivery of this daily moisturization helps in the prevention of developing issues with the skin of the feet such as dryness and cracked heels.
