Help the ORIGINAL Charmed cast and characters to COME BACK!
Please join this #Revival petition to request the original cast in an upcoming Charmed Project.
The Petition's goal is to grab the attention of Netflix and CBS television studios. So they would notice the many Charmed fans, around the world, who would like their favourite show to return with the original cast for a reunion. Since the series's finale on 2006, fans were eager to have more episodes. All the cast members said they would like to come back. However, CBS Studios have the rights for the show now and they are more interested in rebooting the series without them, which all the fans are against it. Please Netflix and CBS, discuss reviving Charmed with its original characters. Take for example the many shows that had recently been revived with their original cast (Gilmore Girls, X-files, Fuller House, Arrested Development, Raven's home, Prison Break, Twin Peaks, Will and Grace, etc). Charmed fans would truly appreciate a revival as well, it would really make many people's dreams come true.
The show was about the Halliwell sisters and their characters development, and anything that would change that will not be true to the series. CBS Television Studios and The CW network should learn about what make Charmed so successful before they decide to make a show about new witches! The Halliwell sisters are the reason behind the show's success, and they are irreplaceable; If you remove them from the story then whatever made the show good would be missing. That is the reason why a reboot, without the original Charmed ones to make an appearance nor even a connection, is more likely to fail. Ever since Charmed ended every new show, about Witches who fight evil, failed and got cancelled. (Eastwick "ABC", The Secret Circle, and Witches of East End "Lifetime"). This should prove that what the audience want to watch is more episodes from the Original Charmed. The majority of people and loyal fans don't want to see a show that wants to copy their beloved series. So CW and CBS, good luck with your Charmed reboot but we'll always keep petitioning for the ORIGINAL Charmed. Also Prue Halliwell played by Shannen Doherty was the main ''Lead" in the first 3 seasons of the show, but she was killed off and we never got a real ending for her character. The only way to honour the original show is by following its storyline, not erasing it.
This is the perfect time for us Charmed fans to petition for a Charmed Revival. With all the reboots that are going around, we might be able to convince Netflix to revive Charmed. Netflix's shows get released on DVD, and other streaming websites. They revived few 90s' shows like Gilmore Girls, Fuller House, Arrested Development (and brought back ALL of the shows' ORIGINAL cast.) We need their help to stop CBS Studios from remaking the series, so we can get our original cast back for a reunion mini-series or even a spin-off. If we gathered many signatures we can grab Netflix's attention and they would be able to change CBS's plan. We have to let the world know that we need a sequel for our favourite witches and the Halliwell family.
The original Charmed ones are the show and without them, it's going to fail. Their hearts, souls, and dedication is what made Charmed extraordinary. Respect the fans' wishes and honour the past, Jennie Snyder Urman and The CW. Loyal fans would rather watch the original show a hundred times than watch a remake.
Three sisters who happened to be witches is the true power behind Charmed that no Witch show ever had. The Cast and Characters were EVERYTHING that the audience wanted.
"Charmed has sustained itself for over a decade, which I don't think anyone expected, even though it makes perfect sense. It's a timeless show about family, sisters and magic. Our daily mantra was: 'This is a show about three sisters who happen to be witches, not three witches who happen to be sisters." (Brad Kern, Charmed show-runner, TVLine 2016)
Fans weren't going to be upset if CBS Television Studios made a sequel or some connection to the original Halliwell sisters instead of trying to replace them with a remake. The original charmed fans don't have a closure with the new charmed remake because they wanted to see the future of the charmed ones' offsprings and grand children for the series to be called charmed instead of just using the title just for the new show to get popular and take advantage of how successful the original show. Also people wouldn't have compared the two shows so much all the time because it would've been related to the original just like when Prue died and they continued the show with a new sister but it was still charmed and true to the series. That is why it is believed that CBS studios screwed over the loyal original fans when they decided to remake the series and have nothing to do with the original. And that is why the remake will never be as successful as the original. People will always want the Halliwells back.
There are many Charmed fans around the world who love this phenomenal show, so we must have the power to bring it back. All we have to do is to unite!

Analysts at Hedgeye have been warning about #ChinaSlowing for six months now. With the world's second-largest economy beginning to slow, it was bound to adversely affect markets in its orbit.
That is becoming more apparent as Asian emerging markets continue to get tattooed in 2018.
Look no further than Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. All three of these equity markets are down big on the year. Meanwhile, Thailand and South Korea are also in the red.
As Hedgeye CEO Keith McCullough notes in the clip above, this downward trend started well before the "Trump Trade War" narrative began.
"This didn't start happening out of thin air," McCullough says.

Whenever I have Nsa 3.5a15 installed it breaks reader view. When I click on reader view it has a bad on top of page but no data. The 'Dark Background and Light Text ' plugin doesn't slow in the address bar anymore. Once I remove nsa and restart ff, all is working.
This won't help you but I could not confirm this with Android 7.1.1 and FFM 56 (20170922214822). Reader view is ok with NSA active. don't know what this dark/light plugin means but i got this button on the lower right where i could change the view to dark-auto-light when in reader mode. My active addons are ublock, https everywhere, disable webrct, phony and nsa.
Just one experience with FF mobile and nsa: I hade some issues with an old installation on my former Android 6 tablet where I (just) upgraded FFM for multiple years / versions from FF 3x on . After a clean re-install most of these isolated issues were gone.
LOL - me having same problem as i now click the reader view button on each website - here no content just one grey seperator bar on top. Disabling NSA does _not_ solve the problem.

View of Los Angeles riot-free (c) Jane Risdon 2003
Writing about 1994 and the Northridge earthquake resulted in a barrage of questions from visitors here about our experience and also provoked questions about the other exciting events I mentioned in the piece which we experienced during those few years: riots, fires, floods, mud-slides and tornadoes.
One such event which I thought I would go in to more detail about by way of a reply to those asking me, is the Los Angeles Riots of 1992, sparked off by the beating (by 4 LAPD patrolmen), of Rodney King and the subsequent beating of Reginald Denning by rioters.
At the time we were in Los Angeles recording the second album for a group we managed and this meant travelling all over the city because although the main body of the album had been written and recorded in England, we were also incorporating the work of some additional writers and producers on the album. The theory being that 'name' writers and producers would add kudos to the product and help push it. We were making an R&B/Pop album so most – but not all – of the famous writers/producers we were working with were black R&B guys.
Between them these guys notched up Grammy's and awards to die for with credits on almost every hit album and single released at that time, and whose work with artists and on movie soundtracks and television series read (and still does) as a 'Who's who,' of the Music Business. Some serious talent and some serious money involved.
Time and money being of the essence, not a moment was to be wasted.
We spent most days rising early and getting to bed at the crack of dawn, having gone from studio to studio across the city working with these people in their own studios as well as working from the main studio in Los Angeles, where the album was being coordinated and most of the work was being done; mixing and additional instrumentation.
Mastering was going to be done in one of the most prestigious Mastering suites in the city and by THE master of mastering engineers. Luckily that studio was untouched by the riots and is still the main mastering suite in the business.
Some months prior to commencing recording we had been criss-crossing the city spending time with various Music Publishers, picking songs and deciding which writers we might have work with our artists who were writer/producers and artists in their own right. We had to get the whole thing tied up before bringing the artists over from England.
It was hard work and such a laugh; you have no idea!
I might write about our experiences with these guys some time soon.
Hands up who wants to know.
We also had to meet with the Video producers, PR companies and Marketing guys, the Radio Station representatives who would eventually be relied upon to play the album and singles from it. Touring companies had to be coordinated, Press lined-up and Interviews arranged. There was Image and Style to be decided, Art-work and Photo shoots – yep, busy doesn't cut it.
So imagine our horror when, after a short trip back to the UK, we arrived back in Los Angeles just as the famous LA Riots were kicking off. As we drove from studio to studio across the city we managed to steer clear of the main flash-points and areas where the most damage was being done.
However, we did experience a drive-by shooting at the main studio in the dead of night when we were working there.
The artist/producers were working on tracks with the engineers and co-producers and we (hubby and I) were sitting in the lounge area taking a break (coffee machine, TV and sofas supplied) watching some videos, trying to remain awake long enough to go in and check on progress and listen to tracks periodically, keeping control over everything, when there was an almighty crashing and popping on the other side of the building, where the reception area was separated from us by a wall. The reception area was fronted on to the road by a wall of tinted glass.
Glass shattered and the front windows caved in. Everyone outside the main control room who heard it rushed into the reception area, shocked and worried, trying to find out what had happened. At first we thought there had been an earthquake. It soon became evident there had been a drive-by shooting; local gangs shooting at the building for whatever reason local gangs have for that sort of behaviour!
We were given the low-down on it all by one of the Mexican 'Runners' who worked at the studio at night-time. A 'Runner's' job entailed going out or food and drinks for everyone, keeping track of labelling of the various Mixes, Tape and CD copying and generally being as helpful as possible. On this particular night we had a really lovely lad working with us, one with a bit of a past, so that is how he knew the score.
Main studio in LA where we were recording during the Riots (c) Jane Risdon 1991
One of the main flash-points for the riots was in South Central Los Angeles in an area called Crenshaw. We were working in Crenshaw at the height of the riots, recording with two black R&B writer/producers,who had a fantastic track record even back then, and who have gone on to soar to the highest heights in the Industry since. Their credits are just awesome and we were so lucky to have had them work with us on three songs for the album.
Back then we were just amazed that their Mercedes and BMW cars managed to escape the ravages of the mob, parked as they were daily outside their studio.
Every trip to the studio in Crenshaw was an adventure. We drove like maniacs through the back streets of LA, ever vigilant, looking for anything suspicious. Mindful that crouched on the floor in the back of the car our two adolescent artists huddled together, terrified.
We didn't exactly fit in with the neighbourhood either.
Most of our sessions at this particular studio began late evening and ran through until 5am or later each morning. So driving through Crenshaw in the dark was not much fun. Especially when we ventured upon the odd crowd standing around a street corner or gathered around a fire, looking menacing.
It was a nerve-wracking experience and not really conducive to song writing, performing or generally concentrating on making a hit record. Everyone was on edge and nerves were raw.
To help the kids calm down they were encouraged to mess around on the Gym equipment the guys had in the studio. They (the producers) were both in great shape. There was a studio cat as well as a couple of little kids running around in between sessions and we got to eat lots of interesting food from the local take-out.
Following one session we managed to run out of gas on the way home and had to pull into a local gas station right in the heart of the district. Luckily it hadn't been burned out and we filled up the tank, mindful of the curious – if not hostile – stares we were getting from passers-by. In California you pay first and fill your tank afterwards, and we duly paid the guy who came for the payment before hooking up the hose. It was dark and badly lit when we got out of the car to pay him, the kids wanted to go to the loo but decided it was too frightening to venture from the back and so they huddled, crossing everything they could, in the hope that we'd avoid the pot-holes on the way home.
The tank filled we got back into the car and were about to drive away when several people rushed towards us from the station store, yelling and waving their hands; not a wave hello I might stress!
Thinking we were going to be lynched and with two hysterical kids in the rear of the car we attempted to drive off but one of our pursuers threw themselves across the hood of the car so we had to stop.
After a lot of yelling and shouting from the group of people surrounding the car we ascertained that they were demanding payment for the gas we had just used. Letting the window down we tried to explain that we had already paid the little guy before filling up.
What little guy? They asked. The one who asked for payment. We replied. Oh, they told us, he wasn't asking for gas payment – he was asking for your safe passage payment.
Needless to say we paid up….again!
We found out later that 'word' had been put around that we were working in the area with the two producers and that we were not to be 'bothered' or 'confronted' in any way, so most of the time when we were in Crenshaw we were perfectly safe; just this one night someone forgot.
But as far as we were concerned once was enough.
There you have it. Just another tale from the City.
When the dust had settled and the city started to try to mend itself, we took part in an amazing concert at the Hollywood Bowl with a CD album released to raise funds for the rebuilding of Los Angeles.
Yep, that's another story…..
Lots more where that came from. Hope you found it interesting.
Details about the riots and causes can be found via Google.

My aunt in Arcadia dreamt it would happen. Yeah, just unbelievable, huh?
Jane Risdon says:
Really? That is amazing. What else did she predict?
laurie27wsmith says:
Great first hand stories like this need to be recorded for posterity Jane. It's like the TV series The Naked City, the voice over always went like this, "The city has a million stories, this was just one of them."
I recall the TV series really well Laurie, how funny you should mention it. I thought about it a while back. Thankfully you are recording yours and entertaining and informing at the same time. My stories cannot compare to what you have experienced, but it all makes us who we are in the end. have a great weekend. Jx
I don't know Jane, your stories would have a universal appeal, especially with it being about the music industry. They make great reading.
Oh I am so happy you enjoy them Laurie. I have been toying with writing about it all, but too many people still around and you know how some like to sue!! I may drip feed a few now and again. The full story would need a hefty book and I am not up to writing that at the moment – one rainy day perhaps. Thanks so much, appreciate you reading my little offerings. Have a great weekend. Jane x
Aging Musos could be a problem, especially if they need a cash influx. Drip feeding is good Jane, we still get to read your offerings. 🙂
All that's keeping me going is the drip! Vino especially good. LOL 🙂
That's great, don't let the vino run out. 🙂
Never 🙂
Maggie Thom says:
God girl you have got to write a book about this. Wow. Your life has had so much adventure and it sounds like you barely had to leave home. 🙂 I've heard of job stress but this really is out there. I think of the stress in my life and can't even come close to this. I want more… 🙂
Maggie, your comment before asking about the stories I could tell set this one off. I was going to reply then thought I'd take forever telling you, so here we are. I shall be putting it all down one-day. I think in some of my interviews and pieces here and there I have hinted at various things, but as you will have read – if you read them – there are some very good reasons why I cannot go into too much detail. So now and again I shall drop one on you as they say…but the meaty stuff might have to wait a while longer. Stress…yep, one long never-ending stress session working in Music. No time off, no rest from baby-sitting and always only as good as the last release. Keep an eye out, you might come across more at some point, meantime have a look at my interviews for some other little insights…if of a mind that is. Thanks so much for reading my posts, means a lot. 🙂
I'm sure there is a lot you can't share because of who some of the other players are. Love reading about your journey. Thank you for sharing. maybe you'll have to write it as fiction and only you will know it's mostly nonfiction. 🙂 New names… new places…. Have a great week.
Oh I would write it as fiction as I don't fancy concrete boots. I can't swim either. So I would disguise it as I have done to far. I shall let you know if I feel the urge coming on to add another tale or two. Thanks so much for being interested and commenting; means a lot. Enjoy your week too…hope it is not a wet one. 🙂
No we don't have to worry about wet here so much as snow and cold – both of which we are getting this week. Very cold -30ish. Brrr. Time to move to a warmer climate. I look forward to reading more of your tales. They are truly entertaining. It doesn't sound like you've lived a boring life. 🙂
I am not a fan of the cold or snow. Having lived in hot climates I have decided I don't like AC either so somewhere about 70 degrees all the time would suit me, though I do love having seasons as well. Hard to please. I preferred it when I had two bases from which t operate. When I got bored with one climate I could shift to the other. These days I am a little static….well until the itchy feet take off again. I guess having lived entertainment, I cannot help but write it – lol. Not all of it was entertaining either…sometimes sheer hell. But I guess that is life for most of us; two shades of grey!! Still waiting for the other 48! 🙂
Nicky Wells says:
OMG Jane! The stories you tell! My hands are firmly up, both of them, for more more more! I can't believe that you worked through all of this. The dedication to the music is just incredible, and you rock. So what happened to the album–did you bring it out safe and sound and watch it shoot to number 1?? XXX Love this post.
Nicky, glad you enjoyed it. I had a feeling in my water you would. Loads more to come at some point I guess when I can get myself in the mood….crime is pressing me to work on that mainly, but now and again something sets me off as you've no doubt noticed! We recorded with two sets of two writer/producers and another solo writer producer for this album and singles. Diane Warren wrote one of the songs for the act and, of course, they had all their own material too, so it took some time to record. Yep it was an interesting time….I seem to have lots of interesting time without really trying…Dan and Sophie would approve. 🙂
Jane – Wow! You certainly had a scary experience! So for you, LA was not at all the glorious weather, fun drives around and other things you see on postcards. I'm glad you came out of it unscathed and with quite a set of stories to tell.
LOL Margot, we did the fun stuff when we lived there. Not all doom and gloom, but Maggie Thom did ask about the riots…so I thought rather than try to tell her, I'd write another blog post. We had a laugh as well…so many adventures really. The longer you live the more you have! 🙂

Artist: DVD-Nik Kershaw
Title: Live in Germany 1984
Category: Profiles
Author: Tommy Gunnarsson
Last year, I did an interview with Nik Kershaw for Pennyblackmusic, and among the things we discussed there were his very complicated songs, especially on his first two albums.
And this is one of the first things that hits you when watching this DVD release of a concert in Montreux in 1984 (or is it Germany? Or Alabama Hall? The DVD cover tells us three different things on this point…). The concert kicks off with 'Cloak and Dagger" from Nik's debut album 'Human Racing', which was released in 1984, and the album promoted on this very tour, and from the first notes of this song until the last notes on the album's title track, which is the last song of the encore, you get your fair share of weird chord structures and unpredictable changes.
It is really a pleasure to see Nik and his live band play these songs live, even though Nik himself doesn't seem to enjoy himself very much, as the only time he smiles is when the audience goes nuts during 'Wouldn't It Be Good', one of his biggest hits. Or maybe it's just because he didn't show his true emotions very much, Well, that doesn't really matter now, does it? It's a great show, and some really great songs, among them the fantastic 'Dancing Girls' and 'Bogart'. Sadly, the second album, 'The Riddle', wasn't out yet when he did this show. It would have been really nice to see the singles from that album played live as well.
Regarding the DVD production, there isn't much to tell really. The picture quality is good, especially considering that is was filmed more than 25 years ago, and the sound quality is very good as well. The only negative thing is the confusion about where this show was actually filmed, which is either the result of bad proof-reading, or maybe they just don't know.
Included in the package is also the same show on CD, which is a great bonus.

Spalling refers to a localized fracturing of concrete that occurring along cracks or joints. Several factors contribute to development of spalling in CRCP, but most stem from the presence of pre-existing fractures that are propagated into cracks leading to spall distress. For example, moisture loss and the associated drying shrinkage at the pavement surface, coarse aggregate type, and inadequate curing protection may result in weak concrete near the surface. This concrete is more prone to spalling, especially at transverse cracks in CRCP. Early-age horizontally-oriented delamination in combination with slab deflection of the pavement slab under load creates bearing stresses at the crack faces due to the action of load transfer. This can cause the concrete surface to spall in a relatively short period of time, and in turn, lead to spalling that is somewhat independent of traffic level.
One cause of spalling is the type of coarse aggregates, especially those low in quartzite content (<10% by weight). When these conditions exist, other design factors should be considered to minimize the potential for spalling including the selecting an improved curing method to enhance the strength of the concrete to resist delamination. Using a lower water-cement ratio is a measure that can also be used when river gravel coarse aggregates are used. This reduces the availability of surface water to the gravel materials. Another precaution can be made during concrete batching, where the coarse aggregate can be added as the last component. Finally, another measure that has been effective in preventing spalling is to blend calcareous aggregates with gravel sources which essentially increase the overall early-age bond strength of the concrete aggregate, thus reducing the potential for delamination and subsequent spalling.

Earth is the only known planet to have bodies of liquid water on its surface. Europa is thought to have subsurface liquid water. Evidence points to water on other planets in our solar system. In 2015, NASA confirmed that liquid water flows intermittently on present-day Mars.
Is Neptune hot or cold?
The average temperature on Neptune is about minus 200 degrees Celsius (minus 392 degrees Fahrenheit). Neptune, the farthest known planet of our solar system, is located about 30 times farther away from the sun than Earth is.
Is a day exactly 24 hours?
On Earth, a solar day is around 24 hours. However, Earth's orbit is elliptical, meaning it's not a perfect circle. That means some solar days on Earth are a few minutes longer than 24 hours and some are a few minutes shorter. On Earth, a sidereal day is almost exactly 23 hours and 56 minutes.
What is the rotation on Neptune?
Neptune: Planet Profile
Mass (kg)
1.02 x 1026
Average distance from Sun 30.07 AU (4,km)
Rotation period (length of day in Earth days) 0.67 (19.1 hours)
Revolution period (length of year in Earth days) 60,190 (164.8 Earth years)
Obliquity (tilt of axis degrees) 29.6
Which planet has a life?
Earth habitability comparison According to the panspermia hypothesis, microscopic life—distributed by meteoroids, asteroids and other small Solar System bodies—may exist throughout the Universe. Nonetheless, Earth is the only place in the Universe known to harbor life.
Is it possible for humans to live on other planets?
Based on his Copernican principle, J. Richard Gott has estimated that the human race could survive for another 7.8 million years, but it is not likely to ever colonize other planets.
Does it rain diamonds on Neptune?
Deep within Neptune and Uranus, it rains diamonds—or so astronomers and physicists have suspected for nearly 40 years. The outer planets of our Solar System are hard to study, however. Beyond the lingering mystery of the diamond rain, there's a big loss in our failure to study Uranus and Neptune inside and out.
What planet will we live on next?
After the Earth, Mars is the most habitable planet in our solar system due to several reasons: Its soil contains water to extract. It isn't too cold or too hot. There is enough sunlight to use solar panels.
Is Earth the only planet with life?
Earth is the only planet in the universe known to possess life. The planet boasts several million species of life, living in habitats ranging from the bottom of the deepest ocean to a few miles into the atmosphere. And scientists think far more species remain to be discovered.
Who named Neptune?
Neptune has 14 known moons. Neptune's largest moon Triton was discovered on October 10, 1846, by William Lassell, just 17 days after Johann Gottfried Galle discovered the planet. Since Neptune was named for the Roman god of the sea, its moons are named for various lesser sea gods and nymphs in Greek mythology.
How long is 1 day on Neptune?

What planet has the most oxygen?
What is send your name to Mars?
So, NASA has re-opened its "Send Your Name to Mars" portal, where you can sign up to send your name into space on a future Mars mission. That's how names were launched on Perseverance. There are three microchips that contain the names of 10.9 million people who also received a "boarding pass" from NASA.
Can humans go to Neptune?
1983: Pioneer 10 crosses the orbit of Neptune and becomes the first human-made object to travel beyond the orbits of the planets of our solar system. 1989: Voyager 2 becomes the first and only spacecraft to visit Neptune, passing about 4,800 kilometers (2,983 miles) above the planet's north pole.

Can voters believe anything Elizabeth Warren claims? Part I
Elizabeth Warren is still being questioned about her Cherokee 'minority status' claims by reporters but a much bigger pattern of her 'lies' emerge when you look at the many things she has said or written even before becoming a Senatorial candidate. Most voters are unaware of Professor Warren's continually debunked claims and outright lies because the media is not reporting them. For Warren to pretend that she wants more regulations and accountability in government, she sure has a lot of explaining to do regarding the false claims she has made and continues to make on a regular basis. How can voters trust anything Elizabeth Warren claims?
Professor Warren's claims and the facts:
CLAIM: Based on family lore, Warren claimed she is part Cherokee. She 'checked' boxes claiming minority status throughout her career and Harvard listed her as being a 'minority' as well.
FACT: There's no proof that Warren is part Cherokee. A genealogist did research and found the following interesting tidbit of information regarding Warren's family:
… That in a follow up article about Warren's ancestry he says that Smith Crawford's husband, Jonathan Crawford, was a member of the Tennessee militia who rounded up Cherokees and herded them into government-built stockades in Ross's Landing, which is now Chattanooga, Tennessee. Ross's Landing was a point of origin for the Trail of Tears.
CLAIM: Professor Warren claims that she is not wealthy or not so wealthy that she has millions in investments.
FACT: Warren is a multi-millionaire who comfortably enjoys being in the top 1%. From Buzzfeed:
Hard to see how Warren wouldn't be, by most standards, wealthy, according to the Personal Financial Disclosure form she filed to run for Senate shows that she's worth as much as $14.5 million. She earned more than $429,000 from Harvard last year alone for a total of about $700,000, and lives in a house worth $5 million.
She also has a portfolio of investments in stocks and bonds worth as much as $8 million, according to the form, which lists value ranges for each investment.

A Brief, Delicious History Of The Great Cupcake Takeover
July 10, 2014 Alexis Kleinman Quick Tips 0
On July 7, 2014, the trendy cupcake bubble burst.
That's when one of the most ubiquitous cupcake chains, Crumbs Bake Shop, closed all of its remaining 48 stores, signaling the beginning of the post-trendy-cupcake era.
"It's over," Bonnie Riggs, a restaurant industry analyst at the market research firm NPD, told The Huffington Post Tuesday when asked about the future of cupcakes. "It was market saturation."
In order to have a successful store, Riggs said, you need to have variety and broad appeal. Cupcakes, like frozen yogurt shops, don't necessarily have that.
"The market for this product is too narrow," Riggs said. "You do it on special occasions."
She compared a store like Crumbs to Krispy Kreme, the donut shop that was once called "America's hottest brand" but was eventually forced to close stores across the U.S. when it failed to diversify and expanded too quickly. Even the best donuts in the world are still just donuts.
So where did the cupcake "fad," as Riggs described it, go wrong? Join us in taking a look back at the rise (↑) and fall (↓) of the great gourmet cupcake.
1919 -- Cupcakes Corporatized (↑)
The opposite of gourmet, the Hostess CupCake, with its signature frosting squiggle, was arguably the first mass-produced cupcake.
1940s and 1950s -- Baking Made Simple (↑)
Cake mixes, sold by Duncan Hines and others, made it easier and more popular to bake cakes (and cupcakes!) at home.
1996 -- Super Expensive Cupcakes Arrive! (↑)
Magnolia Bakery opened its first cupcake shop in New York's West Village. Its cupcakes, which are beautifully decorated and come in gourmet flavors like pistachio and PB&J, cost more than $3 apiece. Despite the steep price, people have been lining up around the block for the past 18 years to get their hands on the treats.
There are now seven Magnolia stores in the U.S. and five abroad.
2000 -- Magnolia's Star Turn (↑)
In the third season of "Sex And The City," Carrie Bradshaw announced her crush on Aidan while munching on a Magnolia cupcake. The sight of the cupcake sparked a national obsession for gourmet cupcakes, specifically from Magnolia.
To this day, Magnolia Bakery is a spot on the "Sex and the City" tour of New York City.
2003 -- Crumbs Of Unusual Size (↑)
Crumbs was one of the first gourmet cupcake chains, and it exploded quickly. The shop offered a variety of flavors at a high price: $40 for a dozen "classic size" cupcakes and $42 for a giant cake-sized cupcake that served up to 8 people. They were... over the top.
The bakery sold cupcakes almost exclusively, and they came in ridiculously large sizes, as illustrated here:
In keeping with the super-size theme, Crumbs stores were also gigantic, averaging around 1,000 square feet.
2005 -- SNL's Viral Cupcake Video (↑)
Saturday Night Live cast members Andy Samberg and Chris Parnell ate Magnolia cupcakes in the show's second-ever "Digital Short." This was one of the first times many people had heard of Magnolia Cupcakes, and "Lazy Sunday" became one of the first viral videos on YouTube.
2008 -- Mr. Cupcake Goes To Washington (↑)
The perpetually crowded Georgetown Cupcakes proved the cupcake fad was not limited to New York City.
2009 -- Bite-Sized Cupcakes (↑)
Baked By Melissa joined the increasingly crowded cupcake market in 2009, distinguishing itself with its bite-sized gourmet offerings.
2010 -- Cupcakes Get A Reality Show (↓)
"Cupcake Wars," a cupcake-baking competition show, debuted in 2010. The winners of each episode got $10,000 for baking the best cupcakes. Again, that's $10,000 for baking cupcakes.
2011 -- Peak Cupcake! (↑)
This moment was, by far, the peak of the trendy cupcake craze. It was all downhill from here.
Crumbs' stock debuted at $13.10 per share in June 2011. The stock price was at 4 cents this past Tuesday afternoon. In the good old days of 2011, the company's owner said he hoped to have 200 stores open by 2014. This never happened, but the chain did expand quickly.
2011 -- Sad Cupcake Is Sad (↓)
In an iconic scene in the Oscar-nominated comedy "Bridesmaids," Kristen Wiig's character, who had previously opened a failed gourmet bakery, made herself a single lonely cupcake. Her failure clearly foreshadowed the cupcake crash that was to come.
2012 -- Sadder Cupcake Is Even Sadder (↓)
Just as "Sex and the City" elevated the cupcake to new heights, "Girls" took it to new lows. In the show's pilot episode, Lena Dunham's character Hannah Horvath is seen devouring a cupcake in the bathtub of her rundown New York City apartment. Sad and naked, Hannah is the anti-Carrie Bradshaw, who was typically sad and clothed.
2012 -- Somebody, For Some Reason, Invents A Cupcake ATM (↓)
The height of our bizarre cupcake obsession came in the form of a 24/7 cupcake ATM. There are still cupcake ATMs in six American cities.
2013 -- Peak Crumbs (↑)
At the height of its expansion in 2013, Crumbs had 70 locations, but there were signs the chain had grown too quickly. That number had been cut to 48 by the time the empire collapsed.
2013 -- The Cupcake Meets Its Match (↓)
New York baker Dominique Ansel invents the "cronut," a croissant-doughnut hybrid pastry that proved to be the most notable sweet obsession since the cupcake's heyday. This pastry fad had people lining up for hours to shell out $5 for it. The cronut spawned countless knockoffs and a black market where they were sold for upwards of $100.
2014 -- Crumbs Gets Super Desperate (↓)
In a pitiful attempt to hop on the cronut bandwagon and reestablish itself as a dessert giant, Crumbs created the "Crumbnut." For some mysterious reason, Crumbnut fever did not sweep the nation.
2014 -- Ben & Jerry's Tries To Save The Cupcake (↑)
We love Ben & Jerry's, but it jumped on the cupcake fad too late. In 2014, the ice cream maker debuted a cupcake ice cream flavor called "Lazy Sunday," inspired by the nearly decade-old SNL skit. It's vanilla cake batter ice cream with chocolate and yellow cupcake pieces and a chocolate-frosting swirl.
2014 -- Wall Street Loses Faith (↓)
In June, Crumbs said it was being delisted from the Nasdaq because the company had lost so much value. This was a major sign that the cupcake bubble had burst.
2014 -- Crumbs Tanks (↓)
Crumbs' stock fell to 4 cents a share on June 30, before the stock was delisted on July 1.
2014 -- Cupcake Empire Crumbles (↓)
Crumbs employees were told stores were closing on July 7. The company will file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidation.
So what's the next trendy dessert? Some predict it will be the donut again. Others suggest it will be pie. Whatever it is, let's hope it does not divide the nation the way the cupcake did.

Refuse treatment is one important agenda of the cyclic economy of the 21th century. As technology advances, the application of waste-to-energy power plants perfectly combines the refuse treatment with energy supply. The design tries to show the public a novel waste-to-energy mode and create an environment-friendly green energy centre.
The facade of the power plant is inspired by traditional Chinese brickwork and bamboo weaving. The brick walls comprise prefabricated concrete components incorporating vegetation and a drip irrigation system. The roof is shaped like a green carpet stretching out of the ground and wrapping round the power plant, making a dynamic small hill. The colour of the roof echoes the colour of the land around the site, making up an abstract colour composition.

At the Center of the Universe (Okay, the Country) – Kansas Has a Great Legacy
Some really fun and interesting things about this great state
Brooke Woods Send an email
Facebook Twitter Pinterest Reddit
LisaAnfisa / Bigstock
There's lots to love about the Sunflower State, but we'd be willing to bet there are lots of things that the average person doesn't know about the beautiful state of Kansas. Here are nine things you probably didn't know about the state of Kansas.
Al-le-ga-wa-ho, head chief of the Kaws in the 1860s and 1870s / Wikipedia
1. It's named after a Native American tribe
Most people know that Kansas was named after the Kansas River, but they may not know that the river and the state take their name from the Kanza Native American tribe. The Kanza, also known as the Kaw, are sometimes called 'the people of the south wind.' For many years, Kansas was actually home to many diverse Native American tribes, though today there are only four established Native American Reservations in the state.

2. Kansas is literally flatter than a pancake
The University of Utah measured the flatness of an actual pancake from the International House of Pancakes (IHOP) and compared it to the topographical profile of Kansas. Surprisingly, the state appeared to be flatter than the pancake during their comparisons. They may have only been proving what Kansans have been saying for years, but it was still a fun study.

3. Kansas has a lot of nicknames
Most states have a nickname or two, but Kansas has at least eleven widely recognized nicknames. Call it the Sunflower State, the Wheat State, Midway USA, the Central State, the Cyclone State, the Grasshopper State, Garden of the West, the Squatter State, Bleeding Kansas, the Battleground of Freedom, or the Jayhawk State, but don't call Kansas boring. Each nickname relates to a unique characteristic of the state or event in its history. With so many monikers to choose from, Kansas shows that it's more than just the place where Dorothy came from.

4. It has a LOT of tornadoes
Speaking of Dorothy, there's a good reason why the Wizard of Oz used Kansas as Dorothy's home state. The tornado that took her to Oz was probably one of nearly 100 that hit the state of Kansas every year. According to meteorologists, Kansas gets an average of 96 tornadoes each year. Of course, not all of them do a lot of damage. Some are minor, but there have been a few very strong tornadoes in Kansas in the past decade. Considering the fact that Kansas lies smack in the heart of 'tornado alley,' most of the states residents know what to expect during the peak tornado season and they prepare accordingly.
5. The geographic center of the United States is in Kansas
There's a reason why Kansas is called Midway, USA. Just under 3 miles outside of Lebanon, Kansas, there's a small sign and mile marker that proudly declares the spot's claim to being the center of America. Of course, experts are quick to point out that this claim to fame may not always be accurate since changing shorelines can technically alter the size and shape of the US, but for now, Kansas is proud to have the distinct privilege of being the center of our country.
The first Pizza Hut (pictured) opened on June 15, 1958, in Wichita, Kansas / Sanjay Acharya / Wikipedia
6. The first Pizza Hut was built here
The next time you have pizza from Pizza Hut, you can thank Kansas. In 1958, brothers Dan and Frank Carney wanted somewhere they could get good pizza near Wichita State University. They opened the first Pizza Hut in Wichita and had six more Pizza Huts open within a year. Eventually, the brothers' pizza chain franchised and became one of the most famous pizza restaurants in the world with over 13,000 locations worldwide. Not bad for a couple of hungry college kids with a hankering for a slice of pizza!
7. It's also the birthplace of Icee
If you need something cold and refreshing to wash down your Pizza Hut pizza, you might want to grab yourself an Icee, which, coincidentally was also created in Kansas. The same year that the Carney brothers were opening their first pizza restaurant, a Dairy Queen owner was creating a cold and refreshing ice beverage to serve to his customers. Omar Knedlik placed bottles of soda in his freezer to keep them extra cold, but discovered that the frozen beverage was just as tasty as its liquid counterpart. This serendipitous discovery was a hit with his customers, so he commissioned a machine to freeze and dispense the drinks. This gimmicky concept, combined with the refreshing drink itself, became a hit that is now sold all over America in restaurants and gas stations.
8. It's the birthplace of the first modern fast food restaurant–White Castle
There's just something about Kansas that inspires cooks to create new things. For example, the first noted hamburger chain restaurant ever to open in the US was the White Castle. The first White Castle opened in 1921 in Wichita, Kansas. The small, slider versions of the traditional hamburger became a big hit with the locals and the chain expanded, eventually expanding across the United States. Its first restaurants were designed to look like actual white castles, a gimmick that has lasted since the first restaurant opened. You can still find White Castle burgers around the US today, though they cost a fair bit more than the original $0.05 price of the 1920s.

9. It officially has the windiest city in the US
Chicago may be called the 'Windy City,' but it's not the windiest in the US by far. Kansas can lay claim to that title thanks to Dodge City. According to wind measurements, the average wind speed in Dodge City is just under 14 miles per hour, compared to Chicago's less-impressive 10.3 miles per hour.
What does this mean for Dodge City? Well, it means that the state can harness the power of the wind using turbines, for a start. According to some reports, Kansas hit 5000 megawatts of wind power generation in 2017. That's a lot of energy from just the wind, and it's estimated that Kansas already gets over 30 percent of its energy from wind power. As of 2017, only three other states in the US got over 30 percent of their energy from wind power, too, with Kansas only behind Iowa in wind energy production.

Almost two months ago I was lucky enough to be asked by Sew Mama Sew if I'd like to contribute a project for Cloud 9 Fabrics' soon-to-be-released fabric line, Wildwood.
I said yes please, emailed them an idea and was very excited when I found the project had been accepted to participate in the Wildwood Challenge.
The fabric arrived in August and it had the same beautiful, crisp hand I've come to expect from Cloud 9 fabrics. The colours are very on trend – love the navy and coral.
So, what did I make? A quilt of course! I wanted to keep it simple and show off every single print from the line. I also liked the idea of being able to use a fat quarter bundle.
I do love my colour gradations, and that's what I've attempted here.
I quilted it with parallel diagonal lines, using my walking foot edge as a guide. Initially I was going to quilt the whole thing in a neutral beige colour, but when I found I had spools of navy and coral that matched exactly I thought I should incorporate these, too (which I did randomly).
I used a scrappy binding, taking the time to match the binding fabric to the fabric at the quilt's edge (not exactly as I didn't want overlapping seams, but close enough). I really like the effect.
Step 1: Buy a fat quarter of each of the 12 fabrics in the line.
a. Reduce all the squares to 5.25″ – then they will fit into the fabric you have available. (This will reduce the final size of the quilt to 47.5″ x 57″ which is still a generous baby quilt size).
b. Cut 3 x 5.5″ squares from each row (not 4 as shown above) and then piece your final square from what you have left over. I know purists will shudder at this – but you're already chopping fabric apart just to sew it straight back together, so it's not a stretch to piece the 10th square!
Step 4: Sew your squares into rows, and then sew your rows together. Make a backing then baste, quilt, bind and enjoy!
The rest of the backing was pieced with Kona Raffia yardage.
I have no pattern to share for the backing. Frankly, it was a major pain in the posterior to piece and I won't be doing it again. It took a lot longer than the quilt top to make and about half way through I cursed myself and wished I'd used a whole cloth instead! Oh well, this is how we learn, right?
The one thing I will say is that all those diagonal seam lines were handy for staying on track when I was quilting.
There you have it – a Wildwood Crib Quilt, fit for any young bub!
Thank you so much to Sew Mama Sew for the Challenge, Cloud 9 for the fabric and Elizabeth Olwen for designing such loveliness.
Great job, Kirsty! The quilting adds so much texture and makes it extra special! I love it!
What a beautiful range of fabric- so soft but the navy makes it strong too! Lovely quilt, as usual Kirsty!

Now that is Really rather lovely … Nicely done m'dear!

This is fabulous! I wish I had the patience to sew a quilt. Love that you incorporated the whole line. It's so beautiful.
I loved your quilt and appreciated you sharing the pattern and the process. I loved the backing and quilting designs chosen too! It is truly reversible.
Love the baby quilt and the back may have been a pain, but so cute!
It's bold and peaceful at the same time. Cloud 9 fabrics have such a lovely hand!
Those fabrics are gorgeous and the baby quilt is wonderful. Simple but a very pretty pattern.
Oh my goodness, I love this quilt so much! I must get my hands on those fabrics. I've already copied your tutorial to my computer. It's just scrumptious! Lovely!
Such a lovely fabric line. Your quilt is gorgeous!
The color gradation is lovely. I also think the back is worthy of being another front . Bonus!
I love this fabric, love your quilt- diagonal lines look great! And I'm so glad you had navy and coral thread, it really looks great!
I love it i have been looking for a great quilt pattern that uses fat quarters.
Nice quilt, good way to tie the back in with the front fabrics.
I love this fabric, and your quilt is absolutely beautiful. Thanks!
I love your quilt. I have a new grandson coming anyday now, these fabrics would be great for another boy.
These are beautiful fabrics. Thanks for showing how you did the layout of the quilt. I like the backing you made too.
OH MY LANTA!!! This is absolutely GORGEOUS!! I must make one just like it. Thank you for the tutorial!
i like the front but I love scrappy backs, so fun. Such pretty fabric.
Love your Awesome Quilt! & colors are Beautiful!! Super job! & backing is cool!
Love this quilt. Beautiful job!!!!!!!!
Such a pretty quilt…could use many different fabric lines. Thanks for sharing!
I really like this quilt and it looks easy enough for me to make. Thanks for the tutorial.
Well worth the trouble, the backing is just as lovely at the front. Great finish!
Wonderful fabric gradation – my favorite color combinations.
The back is such a treat to look at too!
What a beautiful but simple quilt! Your fabric placement makes it!
Love the pattern for a baby quilt. My daughters and nieces like patterns that lean toward the traditional but with an update. This is perfect. The fabric colors are very pleasing to the eye.
Thanks for the chance to win as I have more than one quilt to make for the little ones!
I LOVE the gradation in this quilt. It is sooo beautiful!!
Your quilt is beautiful! I love the placement of the fabric.
Wow what a beautiful quilt! The backing is awesome, even though it was a pain to piece::So Worth It.
Absolutely beautiful! Loved how you made a simple quilt so unique!
Kirsty this is a wonderful pattern to showcase fabric. I love the way you do colour graduation and your patterns are so detailed and well written.
Gorgeous! I love the back, but I can see how it was probably a royal pain to make.
Beautiful quilt, thanks for the tutorial!
I love this quilt. I can't wait too make it.
Very pretty quilt. I love the colors and your scrappy binding.
Beautiful quilt! I love the backing and it definitely was worth the hard work, it's brilliant too! Thank you for the pattern.
Oh do I love your quilt!!
Beautiful quilt, love how you did the back! I love pieced backs!
Beautiful, loved the front and oohhed and awwed over the back!
Your quilt is great! I really would like to make one like it. Thank you for sharing the pattern. I think you did a great job of showing off Wildwood in an inventive way.
Wow – your quilt is beautiful! The colour graduations make such an impact – I love that the simplicity of the design actually gives it such complexity!
Beautiful quilt and love the fabrics!
I love the simplicity of this quilt, but the back is even more over the top. Great job!
The back of your quilt is fabulous! The front showcases the fabrics, but the back just pops, and was well worth the time and agony you put into it in my opinion (although I wasn't the one doing it, so I guess I would say that! 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
I love the pattern, but discovered after ordering a fat quarter bundle from Hawthorne Threads that you can not cut four blocks 5.5 inches square from the 22 in side of the fat quarter. The fabric is exactly 22 inches wide, but once you cut off the salvage you are short one block by almost an inch. I was able to order another fat quarter bundle to complete my quilt. However, some people might nigh be able or want to invest in another $40 plus to complete the pattern.
Hi Donna, I'm sorry your fat quarter wasn't fat enough! (Sorry, bad fat quarter joke). One other option to maximise your FQ is to cut your squares in a 3×3 configuration and then piece together the 10th square. Some people only want to cut 'complete' squares, (which could necessitate the need for more fabric) but if you're comfortable with piecing that last one you can make it all fit.
All the best and happy sewing!

Flutes of Death [a novel]
Driss Chraibi, translated by Robin A. Roosevelt
1985/146 pages/LC: 83-50204
The first book in a trilogy that continues with Mother Spring and Birth at Dawn, this naturalistic allegory is about two Arabic-speaking police officers who set out in the Atlas Mountains in search of a revolutionary. Once in this mysterious region, the officers, with their postcolonial, Westernized manners, are challenged by the ferociously suspicious and independent-minded Berber peoples.
Chraïbi illustrates the clash between the modern and the traditional, between those who are willing to make cultural accommodation and those who are assertive of ancient traditions. At the same time, in language that is sometimes acerbic and sometimes lyrical, he illustrates the predicaments common to all ordinary people, whether urban or peasant. First published in French in 1981.
Born in Morocco in 1926, the late Driss Chraïbi embraced French education and culture early on and supported French colonial rule; but he soon became equally critical of the Occidental and the Islamic worlds, and his writing often focuses on the unresolved conflicts between the two. Chraïbi practiced medicine for a few years, then turned to writing in 1952. He has published more than a dozen highly acclaimed novels.

So enter Clint McClurg. He was the boys varsity basketball coach last season and is a Eureka High graduate.
McClurg coached varsity football at Burney High School and takes over a Ferndale team that went 5 and 7 but reached the second round of the section playoffs.


STUDY GUIDE: Professor Lilia Melani has created an excellent study guide for this poem. This will help you find and understand Keats' many allusions.
Here's a quote from this 1911 biography of Keats: "Keats has been promoted by modern criticism to a place beside Shakespeare. The faultless force and the profound subtlety of his deep and cunning instinct for the absolute expression of absolute natural beauty can hardly be questioned or overlooked; and this is doubtless the one main distinctive gift or power which denotes him as a poet among all his equals, and gives him a right to rank for ever beside Coleridge and Shelley." It is interesting to note that Keats is now more frequently mentioned together with Byron and Shelley, rather than Coleridge. I don't think I'd rank him with Shakespeare, but he certainly had a poetic genius.
Here's a quote from the excellent Poetry Foundation biography of George Chapman: "If one can isolate a central passion in Chapman's life and works, it would be the central project of Renaissance Christian humanism: an attempt to make literature (among the other disciplines) an instrument for both an upright private ethics and a benevolent and just public policy. In more parochial terms the project intended as well to establish a national literature powerful enough to rival the Latin and the Greek." I recommend reading the entire biography to learn more about the author whose compelling text inspired Keats and others.
Note the allusion in the title of Professor Leland Ryken's book, Realms of Gold: The Classics in Christian Perspective. The more you read, the more connections you can make.

Not only is Palawan Island considered one of the most captivating tourist attractions in the Philippines, but it is rich in languages and culture as well. Palawan is one of the best-known archaeological sites that carry solid evidence of the country's ancient past.
Most Palawanos choose to live along upland rivers, while a few opt for the coast. Their primary source of food is agriculture, using the slash-and-burn method. Hunting with blowguns, fishing, and food gathering are also relied on for sustenance. In traditional societies, most of the agricultural tasks are assigned to the women.
The Central Palawanos stay in the southern part of the island, near the towns of Quezon, Rizal, and Abu-Abu. The tribe is also known as Quezon Palawano.


In January, February and March 2019, AS LHV Group altogether earnt EUR 5.0 million in consolidated profit. In Q1, the bank earnt EUR 4.2 million and Varahaldus EUR 1.2 million as net profit. LHV Group paid EUR 2.3 million as income tax in Q1. Group's equity ratio was 12.2%.
The Q1 net profit of the consolidation group was EUR 1.7 million less than in Q4 of 2018, however it has increased by EUR 0.7 million y-o-y.
During the quarter, the Group's consolidated net loan portfolio increased by EUR 72 million (+8%; +107 million in Q4 of 2018), to EUR 991 million. Consolidated deposits increased by EUR 145 million (+10%; -215 million in Q4), to EUR 1,567 million. At the same time, the deposits related to payment intermediaries increased by EUR 33 million and those of the regular customers by EUR 112 million.
The volume of funds managed by LHV increased by EUR 43 million over the quarter (+4%; +11 million in Q4), to EUR 1,257 million.
"In the first quarter, the growth of our business volumes has been broad-based, while also showing an all-time rapid pace. The number of the bank's customers grew by 9,500, with more than 3,600 customers joining us in March. The number of salary receipts, customers with assets, payments, use of bankcards, investment contracts is higher than ever. LHV's loan portfolio reached EUR 1 billion and the customers' deposits thrived. The total number of LHV's customers exceeded the threshold of 170,000.
The most important highlights of the quarter were the launch of the entrepreneur account and outgoing instant payments, as well as the acquisition of Verso's loan portfolio amounting to EUR 13.2 million. In March, we expanded our ATM network, to speak to a growing number of customers all over Estonia.
In January, LHV Group was chosen as the company with the best investor relations on the Nasdaq Baltic Stock Exchange. We are still most happy about the assessment given to our service quality. To be specific, the survey company Dive rated LHV Pank as the bank offering the best service in Estonia.
LHV Group's profit and profitability were notably influenced by the payment of income tax relating to dividends. All in all, LHV paid EUR 2.3 million as income tax and accordingly, the equity ratio was 12.2% in Q1 of 2019.
By the end of Q1, the consolidated volume of investment funds managed by LHV Varahaldus exceeded the threshold of EUR 1.25 billion; a great part of the growth originated from the recovery of securities markets after the Q4 decline. LHV's actively managed pension funds still have the lowest price risk related to stock exchanges, as the focus is primarily on making OTC investments. From February, there was an annual decline of 2nd pillar pension fund management fees related to volume growth, as a result of which the operating income decreased. The new management fee rates of 2nd pillar funds range from 0.39% to 1.20%. By the end of the quarter, the number of LHV's active 2nd pillar customers exceeded 177 thousand.
LHV's growth trends are supported by the Estonian business environment. The economic growth has been solid and the internal policy risks are managed by the balanced budget, low public sector debt and positive foreign balance.
We expect the slow economic growth to continue; at the same time, forecasting of the surrounding economies has become increasingly complicated. Also, the credit market has remained strong. All of the main credit products, incl. corporate loans and home loans, are growing. The financial health of households is on the strong side, the loan-to-deposit ratio is improving.
Yet, the sector is increasingly influenced by regulatory issues, such as the wish of certain parties to dismantle the 2nd pillar pension. By accusing it of having an insufficient rate of return, productivity is not being improved, but instead, the intention is to destroy the message that we need to save and thus, the development of Estonian capital and capital markets is reversed. The planned changes will be paid by the next generation together with tax increases. This cannot be a goal. We hope that a reasonable dialogue is achieved between the public and those making the decisions."
AS LHV Group reports are available at https://investor.lhv.ee/en/reports/.
LHV will organize an investor meeting to introduce the quarterly results, to be held on 16 April at 18.00 in LHV Tallinn office (Tartu mnt 2, I floor). The presentation will be made in Estonian. To participate, please register at https://fp.lhv.ee/academy/558. A real-time video broadcast is made of the investor meeting on LHV's Facebook page www.facebook.com/LHVPank.
LHV Group is the largest domestic financial group and capital provider in Estonia. LHV Group's key subsidiaries are LHV Pank and LHV Varahaldus. LHV employs about 400 people. More than 171,000 customers use LHV's banking services. Pension funds managed by LHV have over 177,000 active clients.

El Golpe de Estado en Haití de septiembre de 1988 tuvo lugar el 18 de septiembre de 1988, cuando un grupo de suboficiales de la Guardia Presidencial de Haití derrocó al general Henri Namphy y llevó al poder al general Prosper Avril. Namphy había sido miembro del Consejo Nacional de Gobierno instalado tras la caída de Jean-Claude Duvalier, desde 1986 hasta la toma de posesión en febrero de 1988 de Leslie Manigat, quien había ganado las elecciones presidenciales haitianas controladas por los militares en enero de 1988. Namphy había derrocado a Manigat en el golpe de Estado de junio de 1988, cuando Manigat había intentado ejercer su derecho constitucional a controlar las asignaciones militares.

Desarrollo
La masacre de St. Jean Bosco el 11 de septiembre, atribuida a exmiembros de los Tonton Macoute, contribuyó al golpe de septiembre, en particular después de que Namphy no lo condenó y seis participantes pudieron aparecer en la televisión nacional al día siguiente y lanzar nuevas amenazas. Como lo expresó la Comisión Interamericana de Derechos Humanos, "Mucha gente se indignó porque estas personas pudieran aparecer en la televisión, sin ningún disfraz, confesar su participación en estos eventos y amenazar futuros actos criminales sin temor a ser arrestados por las autoridades". Además, existían temores de que la masacre podría ser el comienzo de la reaparición de los Tonton Macoute y potencialmente eclipsar al ejército.

Avril había sido removido del Consejo Nacional de Gobierno en 1986 después de manifestaciones que protestaban por sus vínculos con el régimen anterior de Jean-Claude Duvalier. El golpe de septiembre lo llevó a la presidencia y permaneció como jefe de un régimen militar hasta marzo de 1990.

En una breve declaración preparada a nombre de la Guardia Presidencial, el sargento Joseph Heubreux explicó el golpe como un intento de los suboficiales de restaurar el honor a las Fuerzas Armadas de Haití y poner fin a un período de "violencia aleatoria y confusión en la cadena de mando del ejército bajo el mando del general Namphy". El sargento Heubreux presentó al nuevo jefe de estado, Prosper Avril, como "el oficial más honesto" en las fuerzas armadas haitianas. El teniente general Prosper Avril declaró que aceptaba su nominación como nuevo presidente para "salvar al país de la anarquía y el caos".

Q: Waiting til authorization has been received I am attempting to create a nice little Spotify playlist creator that anyone will be able to use, i'm trying to seperate the logic out slightly so I have a method for Authorization and Creating a playlist. I can't make a playlist until authorization has occurred, pretty obvious.
My code at the moment looks like this:
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        PlaylistProvider provider = new PlaylistProvider(clientID:"",
            secretID: "", playlistID: "");
        bool authorized =  provider.Authorize();

        List<string> artists = new List<string>();
        artists.Add("stub");
        provider.CreatePlaylist(artists, PlaylistType.CONCERT);
    }

the .Authorize() method authorizes the user but it takes them to a web page, therefore the calling code below runs before the authorization has occurred which throws an exception.
    public bool Authorize()
    {
        AuthorizationCodeAuth auth =
new AuthorizationCodeAuth(ClientId, SecretId, "http://localhost:4003", "http://localhost:4003",
    Scope.PlaylistModifyPrivate | Scope.PlaylistReadCollaborative);

        //Once auth has been received, call AuthOnAuthReceieved method
        auth.AuthReceived += AuthOnAuthReceived;
        auth.Start();
        auth.OpenBrowser();
        return true;
    }

    private static async void AuthOnAuthReceived(object sender, AuthorizationCode payload)
    {
        AuthorizationCodeAuth auth = (AuthorizationCodeAuth)sender;
        auth.Stop();

        Token token = await auth.ExchangeCode(payload.Code);
        SpotifyWebAPI = new SpotifyWebAPI
        {
            AccessToken = token.AccessToken,
            TokenType = token.TokenType
        };
    }

My previous solution was to add the create playlist at the last line of AuthOnAuthReceivedbut i want to seperate the logic out.
Is there a way I can wait for authentication?

"That experience was harrowing for him," Lai said. "But that's all behind him now." The veteran still worked diligently to care for his family and obtained several jobs. But in 2007, a check he received from one employer turned out to be fraudulent — that would be the offense that led to his deportation. Crus Cuevas, mother of Fabian Rebolledo, wipes away tears as her son speaks at a press conference outside the family home in Azusa. (Kent Nishimura / Los Angeles Times) In Tijuana, Rebolledo slept on the streets and in shelters before finding more permanent housing with another deported veteran. He found support among a group of veterans who had also been deported, and he began doing advocacy work. He even helped create a mural at Tijuana's Friendship Park to educate people about deported veterans. In 2015, Proposition 47 made it possible for Rebolledo's fraud charge to be reduced to a misdemeanor. Led by Lai, UC Irvine School of Law graduates Andani Alcantara Diaz and Danielle Nygren were able to file a motion with the Board of Immigration Appeals to reopen his case.
Highway 395 and Palmdale Road is quite alive. (Victorville Police Department) A man and two teens were arrested this week in Victorville after authorities suspected them of duping people into donating money for the funeral of a young boy who wasn't dead. Victorville police say Richard Navarrete, 20, and two 14-year-old boys used poster board signs with handwritten messages to solicit donations along the 395 Freeway and Palmdale Road. Law enforcement launched an investigation Monday after two deputies spotted the group on the street holding the signs. "RIP Johnny," one poster read alongside a picture of a boy wearing camouflage pants and holding what appears to be a toy. Other messages included, "Thank you & God bless you!" and "Anything help's!" Police say the group placed the donated money in plastic water jugs. It is not clear how much they collected. Deputies discovered that the boy pictured on the poster is alive and is the son of Navarrete's friend, police said. Navarrete was booked at the High Desert Detention Center on suspicion of theft by false pretense. The two teenagers, who were not identified, were taken to the High Desert Juvenile Detention Center, according to police.
Costantini knows this world intimately – she is a former competitor who placed fourth in her category as a high school freshman – and the film's insider sensibility benefits from her knowledge. Costantini and Foster, who first worked together on "Death by Fentanyl," a much darker and very different documentary on the opioid crisis, turn out to have impeccable instincts for the intimate and the warmly comic that gives this film the best kind of human moments. That is very much the case with the footage that opens the movie, showing then 15-year-old Jack Andraka screaming, crying and in general having an out-of-body experience when he wins the 2012 Gordon E. Moore award. Interviewed by the filmmakers today, a much calmer Andraka underlines that "winning will change your life in ways you don't even comprehend." Completely in the spirit of 2002's "Spellbound," "Science Fair" proper begins with on-location introductions to the competitors we will be following, motivated young people determined to make the world a safer and better place. Visited first is Louisville's duPont Manual High School, a perennial hotbed of ISEF competitors, where we're introduced to Anjali, as formidably self-possessed and articulate a 14-year-old as you are likely to meet with a project that tests for arsenic levels in drinking water. When Anjali says, "I know how to communicate ideas, that's why I'm successful," she is no more than telling the truth. Even the rare setback does not faze her but merely underlines the important truth that "I'm just a person." Much more of a fish out of water is Kashfia, a slight, hajib-wearing teenager at Brookings High in Brookings, S.D., a school with three gyms and a weight training room but no laboratory. Very conscious of having to be "extra nice and unharmful" as one of the rare Muslims in her community, Kashfia has found an unlikely mentor in the school's head football coach, who accurately observes that "inside her there is a lion, she's really ferocious about what she wants to do in life." Not fitting in for very different reasons is 17-year-old Robbie in West Virginia. Uninterested in school work to the point that he almost failed algebra (his teacher provides the amusing details), Robbie has a gift for machine learning and creativity and has programmed a computer to rap like Kanye West.


Between the holiday season and summer vacation is another magical time of year: March break.
While the break does come with a vacation from tests, quizzes, and projects, it doesn't mean there's nothing to do. Halifax has an abundance of activities to keep your child or children busy and, in some cases, they can learn something new.
This year your little artist has four classes to pick from at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia.
In Paint it Up: Painting and Drawing, they'll use charcoal, watercolours, acrylics and pastels.
In Clay it Up: Clay and Sculpture, participants are shown how to sculpt and transform lumps of clay into art.
With Print it Up: Printmaking, kids learn about different types of the printing technique and how it works.
Most of these skills are combined in the fourth workshop, Mix it Up: Mixed Media, where participants learn how to use different media together.
The gallery will also be open for public viewings during regular hours. This includes a few of its temporary exhibits ("Alphabetical Order: Things Artists Have Drawn," which closes at the end of March; and "Autism Art") and the permanent collection, including the Maud Lewis house.
Cost for art classes: non-members $130/week for half-days; $260/week for full-day classes. Pre-registration required.
Age/Grade Level: Ages 5 to 12. The day is divided up into two sessions. The first is from 9 a.m. to noon for ages five to seven. The second is from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and is for kids aged eight to 12.
Gallery entry fee: $5 for youth aged six to 17. Five and under are free.
March isn't known for its most reliable weather. It could rain, it could be sunny, and it could even snow. With bowling, kids can exercise and practise their math skills at the same time. The city has three Bowlarama centres, one in Spryfield, one in Halifax, and one in Dartmouth. An afternoon at one of the locations is sure to delight even the most novice bowler, especially if you're there during cosmic bowling, when the lights are turned off and colours glow in the dark.
Cost: The regular price of a lane is $11 per person, but there is often a deal or two for March Break. Call ahead to see what's being offered this year.
Who doesn't want to run away and join the circus? And now, your child can, at least for a week. Atlantic Cirque is holding a March break camp from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m, where kids can learn different circus skills such as juggling, stilts, human pyramids, and aerial silks. To celebrate the end of the camp, parents will be invited to a week-ending show on March 22 at 3 p.m.
Cost: $275 per child. Space is limited, so register early.
Age/Grade Level: Ages seven to 12.
Not all March break activities are focused on physicality. Some exercise the imagination.
This year's March break camp at MSVU is focusing on books, allowing kids to, according to the website, "step inside their favourite storybook." Authors whose books will be featured include Dr. Seuss, J.K. Rowling, and Robert Munsch.
Cost: $38 per day or $160 for the week. Please note, pre-registration is required.
Age/Grade level: Primary to Grade 6.
If you're kid loves superheroes, this might be perfect for capping off the week. Held in the Halifax Central Library's Paul O'Regan Hall, the Dalhousie Chorus will be preforming and sharing odd-defying stories of fictional, and non-fictional, heroes.
Superheroes takes place on March 24 at 2 p.m. For more information, contact jmailhio@dal.ca.
The sun will come out tomorrow, or so the song says. But in this case, it doesn't matter because you'll be inside with Upstage Studios' Annie theatre camp. Divided into three two-hour blocks, participants will learn signing, dancing, and acting from camp leaders. Campers will preform the musical at the end of the week.
Classes are at Saint James United Church in Dartmouth from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Age/Grade Level: Age eight and up.
Kids are always asking questions about how things work. What better way to spur on that curious nature than with entrepreneurship? Organized by the Centre for Entrepreneurship Education and Development, kids will spend a week learning about business.
Participants will build on both their leadership and teamwork skills, while also learning about innovation, critical thinking, and the risks associated with entrepreneurship.
They will be able to earn money from their venture and, at the end of the week, pitch their idea to a group of local business owners.
The camp is from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Suite 225, 7071 Bayers Road.
Cost: $180 per child. Pre-registration required.
Age/Grade Level: Ages eight to 14.
The natural and the artificial are being explored during March break at the Discovery Centre.
With Weather Wizardry, campers will learn and take part in activities that focus on how weather works and varies each season.
The Digital Discovery Camp brings together human curiosity with technology. Campers will spend the week learning about video game development, robots, coding, and other topics. They will also be mentored by information and communications technology professionals.
Weather Wizardry: cost: $215 for members, $230 for non-members. Pre-registration required.
Digital Discovery: cost: $250 for members, $275 for non-members. Pre-registration required.
Age/Grade Level: Ages nine to 14.
While most of our top picks last more than a day, there are many other daily excursions for you and your family to enjoy.
Museums: No matter what your child is interested in, you'll find a suitable museum nearby. The Maritime Museum of the Atlantic is hosting nautical games and other activities, crafts and holding film screenings in their Warehouse Theatre. Its most recent exhibit, Canada at Play, which looks at Canadian toys from the past 100 years, will also be open to the public. The Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21 holds its March break at the Museum event from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. everyday. It features movement and food-based workshops and special guests. The Museum of Natural History is offering Dinosaurs Unearthed with animatronic dinosaurs. Roar!
Public Skating: The last scheduled day for the Halifax Emera Oval's winter season is March 17, so glide over. There are also several other public skating options if you can't make it to the Oval: the Halifax Forum, RBC Centre (formerly 4Pad) in Dartmouth, and the Sackville Sports Stadium, among others.
Cineplex: As part of its March break offerings, Cineplex has $2.99 movie deal. Titles are released closer to the break.
Artech Camps: Artech has been teaching kids about digital technology since 2005. This year's March break offerings include: Encounters with Aliens (a game design camp where kids seven to 12 years old create their own characters, aliens, and worlds); Reach for the Stars – Get Animated (an animation camp for all ages teaching different ways to animate, such as stop motion, claymation, frame-by-frame, and more); and Outta this World with Unity 3D (a 3D game design for youth 11 and up that shows new and returning campers how to develop games with Unity 3D.
