Jason Momoa says his Aquaman solo movie will tell the whole origin of Arthur Curry, but also explore the history that exists under the sea. Even before he has made his true debut in the DC movie universe, Momoa has already won over the majority of people thanks to his fun-loving nature stealing every moment in Justice League's marketing. This has already started to make his solo film that much more anticipated amongst fans, making the year-long wait seem like a lifetime away.
But, before we know it, Aquaman will be the focal point for this universe now that filming has wrapped and marketing starts to hit. This means that fans won't get to see any more leaks from the set and will just have to rely on official promos and interviews to keep their interests - and Momoa is already working hard to sell his film.
Total Film spoke to Momoa about what his solo movie will hold, and he stated that it is a full origin story for his character. Although he is already an established warrior by the time Justice League rolls around, he isn't the king yet and won't be until Aquaman ends. So even though audiences will be familiar with the hero, this will be where they get to see him grow.
"It's the whole origin story, for sure. You'll see young Arthur and everything. It goes from before he was born...it's the whole mythology of it.
It's unbelievable where we start in this movie, and where we end up. Right now, I'm [filming] all the end stuff and it's pretty insane. I hate comparing things, but when I watch Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, you see all these amazing worlds and the places they go, and you watch Star Wars and they do battles in space. Well, what do you think is going to happen underwater? There are so many cool worlds we're going to, and my character definitely goes on a big adventure and you travel the world with him."
In a day and age where superhero origin movies are almost looked down upon by some, it is important for Aquaman to do the heavy lifting in introducing audiences to Aquaman and his world. Even though he, his love Mera, and Atlantis will be part of Justice League, with the movie running at only two hours long, it most likely won't have time to completely explore and set up all these parts. Thankfully, Aquaman will be solely dedicated to doing just that, and the focus on that is evident with the casting of a young Arthur Curry and even casting people from other underwater kingdoms.
As for the second part of Momoa's quote, much of what he says here is similar to what others involved with the project have said. Director James Wan also compared the movie to an Indiana Jones flick with its swashbuckling adventure mirroring Raiders of the Lost Ark, only here Momoa compares it to the closing chapter of that trilogy, instead of the first film. But, Momoa's comparison is only because of the large scope that that movie has, also comparing it to Star Wars - a franchise that has been another steady influence. If these comparisons are not only indications of what type of film fans will get, but also hopefully the quality, then DC should have a big hit on their hands.

La caloria (cal) és una unitat d'energia. Una caloria és la quantitat de calor necessària per a elevar en 1 °C un gram d'aigua. La unitat d'energia del Sistema Internacional és el joule (símbol: J).

1 cal = 4,184 J

Sovint s'utilitza també la quilocaloria o kilocaloria (kcal), que equival a 1.000 calories.

El contingut energètic del menjar també es mesura en calories, però, en aquest context, sovint una caloria equival a 1.000 calories de les utilitzades en Química o Física. En les etiquetes de molts productes alimentaris diferencien entre calories i Calories (amb C majúscula) de manera que una Caloria equival a una kilocaloria (kcal).

Metabolisme i calories
Els éssers vius, com els éssers humans, necessiten energia per a poder sobreviure. Els organismes s'alimenten per a obtenir combustible i l'energia que els permeti desenvolupar les seves funcions vitals. L'energia consumida a través d'aliments i emprada per al metabolisme dels éssers vius s'anomena energia endosomàtica. Un adult en necessita entre 2.000 i 3.000 kilocalories (kcal) diàries, segons el seu pes, edat, sexe, tipus d'activitat (sedentarisme, quantitat i intensitat d'exercici físic, etc.) i circumstàncies ambientals (temperatura, etc.) i especials (embaràs, lactància, malaltia, estrès, etc.).
Els joves entre 11-14 anys necessiten entre 1.500 i 1.600 kcal al dia. Els joves entre 15-17 anys necessiten entre 1.600 a 1900 kcal al dia.

L'energia que els éssers vius necessiten i transformen es mesura en kilocalories. Tot i que, informalment, en camp de la nutrició es tendeix a emprar, per una qüestió d'alleugerir el llenguatge i pels ordres de magnitud que se solen usar, el terme Caloria (normalment escrit amb C majúscula) quan en realitat es tracta de kilocalories (=1000 calories). En documents formals, embalatges, etc. per a una major claredat també s'hi inclou l'equivalència en joules o kilojoules.

Les calories o energia que necessitem al llarg del dia la utilitzem en l'índex metabòlic, activitat física i situacions estressants, com per exemple un part, una malaltia o una intervenció quirúrgica.

Calories i nutrients

En una dieta cal que hi hagi variació de nutrients. A excepció de l'aigua i alguns minerals (per exemple, la sal), tots els aliments tenen un nombre determinat de calories segons la seva composició. Cap aliment ni substància conté calories negatives. Els greixos, proteïnes, sucres i alcohol contenen quantitats diferents d'energia, és a dir, de calories. A excepció de l'alcohol, que només conté calories buides, tots ells són necessaris en una dieta sana, ja que cadascun, a més d'aportar energia, té funcions metabòliques diferents.

L'equivalència entre aquests nutrients i energia, en calories és la següent:
 1 gram d'aigua = 1 mil·lilitre d'aigua = 0 calories
 1 gram de proteïna = 4 quilocalories
 1 gram d'hidrats de carboni = 4 quilocalories
 1 mil·lilitre d'alcohol = 7 quilocalories
 1 gram de greix = 9 quilocalories

Hi ha també altres tipus de nutrients:

-Nutrients energètics, els glúcids i els lípids, proporcionen l'energia necessària.

-Nutrients estructurals, les proteïnes i alguns lípids, construïm les cèl·lules del cos.

-Nutrients reguladors, les vitamines, l'aigua i els minerals, són imprescindibles en una gran quantitat de processos bàsics de l'organisme, com ara el creixement, la dentició, la visió, la coagulació de la sang...

Altres mesures d'energia
 Frigoria, és una unitat d'energia utilitzada en climatització, per a evitar el molest ús abundant de signes negatius, que equival a una caloria negativa:
 1 frigoria = -1 caloria
 Tèrmia, pràcticament en desús, és igual a 1.000.000 de calories o a 1 Mcal
 Kilowatt hora (kWh) i els seus derivats MWh, MW any s'usen habitualment en consum d'electricitat, centrals i transformadors.
 1 kWh = 860.421 kcalories
 Joule, és la unitat d'energia del Sistema Internacional:
 1 J = 0,2390 calories
 Esclau, és una unitat de mesura de l'energia exosomàtica que equival al consum anual d'energia endosomàtica d'una persona.
 Tona equivalent de petroli (TEP) = 41.840.000.000 joules = 11.622 kWh
 Tona equivalent de carbó (TEC) = 29.300.000.000 joules = 8.138,9 kWh

Uber is now banned nationwide in Italy
An Italian court has banned all of Uber's services, after a Rome judge ruled that the firm's ride-hailing app constituted unfair competition.
According to a Reuters report, the court has banned the use of Uber's Black, Lux, Suv, X , XL, Select and Van apps and has ruled that the compnay can no longer promote or advertise its services in Italy. The lawsuit was originally filed by Italy's major traditional taxi associations over what it claimed was unfair competition from Uber. Uber's Italian lawyers have issued a statement, as obtained by Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera, in which they say: "We will appeal this ruling that is based on a 25-year-old law. "Now the government can't waste more time and needs to decide whether it wants to remain anchored to the past, protecting privileged profits, or whether it wants to allow Italians to benefit from new technologies." However, lawyers for Italy's taxi associations praised the ruling, and told the newspaper that Uber represents "the most striking form of unfair competition ever registered on the Italian local public transportation market." Uber says it will appeal the ruling, which it has 10 days to do before it is legally obligated to cease operating in Italy or face fines up to $10,600 a day for each day it continues operating its services in the counrty. The company won a similar court case in London last year, in which the High Court in London ruled Uber was not breaking the law with its taxi service app. Transport for London brought the case under pressure from black cab owners in the city, but Lord Justice Ouseley ruled that a device which uses GPS and external servers to calculate fares does not make it a taximeter – a device which only black cabs are allowed to use.

Maria Pagés Utopia Worldtour 2011 with Wahlberg Winch 10
Spanish Flamenco-artist, Maria Pagés tours the world with her show, Utopia, in which a set of plastic tubes plays an important part.
The tubes are controlled by a number of Winch 10 from Wahlberg.
"It is fair to say that our show Utopia, without the Wahlberg winches, would not have been possible. They are Niemeyer's soul in our piece" - Maria Pagés.
The award-winning Spanish Flamenco-artist, choreographer and dancer Maria Pagés toured the world with her show, Utopia, in which a set of plastic tubes and the Wahlberg Winch 10 played an important part in the set and lighting.
The show was according to Maria's website "... born from the encounter of María Pagés and the Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer that led to the beginning of a collaboration between architecture and its universe and flamenco dance and choreography".
The tubes were controlled by a number of Winch 10 from Wahlberg and illuminated by DMX controlled lamps. The precise positioning of the DMX winches made it possible to make fluent, soft movements of the tubes.
By DMX control from the lighting desk, the winches accommodated the beautiful coacgraphy and the movement of the Winch 10 became an integrated part of the show with waves of the moving flexible tubes hanging above the dancers.
The high duty cycle of the winch and the pile wind technology made it possible for the Winch 10 to run for long hours, without overheating.
16-bit DMX position allowed fine-tuning of every movement and the mechanical winch suddenly provided an organic touch to the great dance performance and choreography of Maria Pagés.
Maria Pagés was later in 2011 to receive the medal of Andalucia and the Gold Medal of Merit in the Fine Arts (Spain) in 2014.

Puerto Rican Women and the Pill
Updated: Feb 9, 2021
PC: americanhistory.si.edu
Birth control pills are the number one form of contraceptive use in the United States.* However, many of us don't know that Puerto Rican women in the 1950s were one of the first women to take Enovid, the first birth control pills in the world. In order to get approval from the FDA and release it to the mass public, Gregory Pincus and John Rock, creators of the pill, had to do a large-scale human trial. Unknown to them, Puerto Rican women participated in these clinical trials. They simply thought that they were taking a pill that would help them not get pregnant, they did not know that they were being tested on. These women took Enovid which "contained much higher doses of hormones than modern-day birth control pills, and caused significant side effects."** Many experienced bloating, pain, blood clots, nausea, and for three unfortunate women, death. However, none of the complaints these women made were ever taken seriously, they were easily dismissed, and no autopsy/ investigations were conducted in order to see if the women's cause of death were due to the pill. ***
There is no definitive answer to why Puerto Rico was chosen as the site for this trial. However, many predictions can be made as to why Pincus and Rock chose Puerto Rican women:
Puerto Rican Industrialization
PC: arcgis.com
Industrialization had created more poverty as farmworkers and agricultural roles in society were diminished by companies moving to Puerto Rico for cheap labor and tax cuts (which were encouraged by the US government). Because of the increase in poverty, politicians sought ways to fix this problem. Programs such as Operation Bootstrap sought to displace Puerto Ricans from their homeland into the US, and population control could have been enough motivation to control a marginalized group.
Ties in the Eugenics Movement
This is an example of propaganda used during this movement.
The rise in the belief of this movement, which aimed to prevent socially undesirable people from procreating, had already been in effect for many years before these trials. Eugenicists advocated compulsory sterilization to improve society by eliminating its "socially inadequate" members. Margaret Sanger, who was the most known activist for birth control, opened the first clinic that would later become Planned Parenthood and worked alongside Pincus and Rock, advocated for eugenics as well. "Sanger argued that birth control could help wipe out 'the greatest present menace to civilization'—people living in extreme poverty and those with mental illnesses and physical disabilities".** Puerto Rico was seen as being overpopulated by people living in poverty and many believed that an effective solution would be to target the reproductive rights of women who couldn't have known any better.
While the pill plays a very important role in many women's daily routine and their form of birth control, learning the history of simply inventions like this highlights the institutionalized racism that is still very prevalent today. It also exhibits parts of history that are never talked about but are key to explaining current policies and methods in the medical and political fields.

Fitzpatrick Possibly Ill; Knoxville FBI Will Take No Action Against Rogue Judges
On Wednesday, December 14, 2011 7 Comments
"IF HE MAKES IT, IT WILL BE A MIRACLE"
Walter Francis Fitzpatrick, III shortly before his release from the Monroe County jail on December 3, 2011. His health is reportedly deteriorating, and it is unknown if he is able to obtain proper medical care while an inmate in the jail
(Dec. 14, 2011) — A visitor to Walter Francis Fitzpatrick, III today reported that Fitzpatrick "looks good" after having having experienced either a seizure or lapsing into a diabetic coma after his arrest on December 7, 2011. Fitzpatrick is reportedly receiving some type of medical attention from the jail nurses, whom he reportedly described as "real good." The visitor understood that Fitzpatrick is now taking some kind of medication.
"He was alright," the visitor said of his 30-minute visit with Fitzpatrick today.
The Post & Email was informed by the visitor that a SWAT team "trashed his house in the middle of the night" when they rearrested Fitzpatrick for allegedly taking court papers having to do with the selection of the new grand juries for 2012. Fitzpatrick had attended the grand jury selection, which was reportedly open to the public, on December 7. It has been reported that no such documents were retrieved from Fitzpatrick's home.
He reported that Fitzpatrick must serve "another 60 days or so" because of a miscalculation about the jail time he was expected to serve following his arrest on September 23, 2011. Fitzpatrick had been released on December 3, 2011 after spending approximately 70 days in the jail.
The visitor stated that Fitzpatrick told him that Judge Amy Reedy "picked" the grand jury on December 7 rather than selection having occurred from a random draw of names. He was also informed by Fitzpatrick that Fitzpatrick picked up jury instruction sheets which were available to the public in the courtroom and to which he had been directed by another person in attendance at the time. There is reportedly a video of Fitzpatrick picking up some documents as well as full audio and video of the "picking" of the grand jury by Judge Reedy.
The Post & Email has been told that another observer of the grand jury selection is willing to testify to the same events as Fitzpatrick, and we are aware of that person's identity. According to TCA 22-2-314, grand juries must be chosen by totally automated means to avoid human tampering with potential defendants' Fifth Amendment right to a trial by an impartial panel. The Monroe County Chief Court Clerk has stated that a judge can "pick the (grand jury) foreperson from wherever they choose" without having to ensure the person's eligibility to serve.
On August 24, 2011, Fitzpatrick was ejected from the courtroom of Judge Carroll L. Ross for having a recording device, although Fitzpatrick had placed his recorder in his vehicle before re-entering the courthouse that day.
Others close to the events surrounding Fitzpatrick's exposure of corruption in Monroe County and his several arrests and incarcerations have expressed concern and fear for his safety.
Members of the Monroe County Sheriff's Department have been known to be abusive toward the injured or individuals taken into their custody.
The Post & Email has contacted several counties from Tennessee about their grand jury selection process, and three have stated that the names are selected by computer. Officials from Knox County, Stewart County and Franklin County have told us that anyone who was found to have served within the last two years, as mandated by TCA 22-2-314 are excused from service, but Monroe County has seated jurors who have served more recently than two years.
An individual who visited Fitzpatrick last Sunday stated that Fitzpatrick is suffering from diabetes and cannot get the treatment and exercise he needs to return to his blood sugar levels to normal. The Post & Email contacted the sheriff's department this evening at approximately 8:45 p.m. and was told that the nurse checks the blood sugar of diabetic inmates. When we inquired about Fitzpatrick's health and well-being, the man who answered the phone responded that he was not a deputy but was only "watching the phone" for a few minutes while the deputies were "in the back." He said he could see all the inmates on camera and that Fitzpatrick was "fine" but advised us to call back between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. to speak with a deputy.
The Post & Email has also been informed that Knoxville FBI Agent Roxane West has "made it clear" that the agency has no intention of investigating judicial corruption in Monroe and other Tennessee counties. In a conversation today with a concerned citizen, West reportedly stated that it is a state matter and not the FBI's purview. "She made that quite clear today that they would be doing nothing," the citizen said. The FBI has told The Post & Email to contact the TBI in regard to judicial corruption. We have done so on numerous occasions but received no response. Others have contacted the TBI with no result, including Fitzpatrick himself.
On the morning of October 27, 2010, Fitzpatrick had been informed by a Knoxville FBI agent that he could "expect a visit" from one of their investigators, but it never occurred. He was arrested shortly after the telephone call ended for allegedly missing a hearing, although the nature of the hearing did not indicate a clear need for his presence.
Fitzpatrick has maintained that the indictments issued by the Monroe County grand jury against him have all been invalid because the jury was illegally convened. He also obtained written evidence from the court clerk that the grand jury foreman of at least 27 years had never been properly appointed or sworn in.
This writer is intimately familiar with both seizures and diabetes. It is this writer's informed opinion that it is imperative for Fitzpatrick to receive blood sugar monitoring at least three times daily. To ascertain the extent of the diabetes, he should have blood work done immediately to include a HA1C and other studies such as a complete blood count, lipid panel and a test for ketones. Blood pressure monitoring and regular eye exams are imperative. Many diabetics ignore the symptoms or are unable to get care in time to prevent serious damage to organs, and the risk of heart attack and stroke are much higher in people with the disease. Physical inactivity such as that which Fitzpatrick might be experiencing in the jail is an aggravating factor of diabetes. Diabetics can experience seizures from hypoglycemia, when blood sugar falls too low.

You can see if the State of Tennessee has a Legal Rights Advocate and contact them. They will prosecute on his behalf if they think he has a case.
John Sutherland Friday, December 16, 2011 at 5:22 PM
They'll do their best to kill him. He's an honest man in a den of vipers, and the vipers don't want to back down. My heart goes out to the honorable man. I wish him good health and much happiness.
PJPony Friday, December 16, 2011 at 2:45 PM
You will find that when it comes to inmates in ANY system, or corruption in ANY system, you have no recourse and no one cares.
I am going through this with my son. They will deny care and when you try to help the inmate, they will say HIPA laws prevent them from releasing medical information.
They legally kill them and you will have no way to prove or prevent it, if that's what they want.
I'm sorry to be so harsh, but this isn't just a Tennessee problem. Its national.

If Governor Halsam cannot fix this…he must step down from Nashville or someone should try to recall him if that option is open in TN.

Mr Fitzpatrick needs to file a Federal Suit against those people. Constitutional rights only protect those who are willing to fight for them, and that would launch this into federal courts.
Kevin J Lankford Thursday, December 15, 2011 at 9:04 AM
Obviously the concerns for Mr. Fitzpatrick's safety are well founded. There can be no
doubt he has been intentionally targeted out of pure spite and retribution for his efforts
to expose the malignant rot in his county and state, and his deteriorating health and
possible death would be most pleasing to his antagonists.
"Zeb" Thursday, December 15, 2011 at 8:58 AM
The two primary precursors for alternative therapy treatment of adult onset diabetes, as Sharon says above, are diet and exercise. The diet is to be low or no simple carbohydrates, i.e. low glycemic (starch and sugar) and daily mild aerobic exercise.
Fitzpatrick has described the diet in the jail as cheap food based primarily in starches.
He has been observed to stagger when leaving the visitors cell, i.e his large muscle mass has deteriorated to the point that he can no longer stand steady.
It would not be unusual at all for adult onset diabetes to occur or reoccur under these conditions. However if it is not controlled by proper diet, exercise, and monitored medication the consequences can be serious. None of these controls can or will be done in the jail.

Trending News Today: CVS, Aetna Merger Moving Forward in 2018
By Laurie Toich, Associate Editor
Top news of the day from across the health care landscape.
Early this morning, the House approved budget legislation that will reopen the government and greatly affect health care, according to The New York Times. Under the deal, an advisory board that controls Medicare spending will be repealed and community health centers will gain funding, according to the article. The Medicare panel was implemented under the Affordable Care Act with a goal of addressing the rising costs of the program, the Times reported.
CVS Health still expects to acquire Aetna in the second half of 2018, despite antitrust regulators requesting more information about the merger, Reuters reported. The $69 billion deal is expected to have a significant impact on health care. A shareholder meeting would be held in March to vote on the acquisition, according to the article.
The influenza virus has been evading vaccines, which has resulted in a high burden of hospitalization and mortality. Manufacturers have developed new, promising flu drugs that will be available in the United States next winter, according to Bloomberg. These drugs will provide more treatment options for the hundreds of thousands of patients affected by seasonal and pandemic flu, according to the article.

Hi everyone! I will be going on a long birthday camping adventure from July 4-12 (my real birthday is the 7th if anyone is curious, haha). All of my threads will be on hold until I come back. Internet connection will probably be nonexistent in the wilderness so I'll see you all next week!
I'm home from my vacation but the electricity is out here. I'll get to replies tomorrow when the Internet works again!


The registration sticker tells me this is a 1969 Chevrolet Corvair Monza, which was the only ragtop available in this, the Corvair's final year of production. However, that rear panel treatment sure looks like that of the higher-priced Corsa model of 1965-66, which of course wouldn't have a Monza emblem on the front fender, or federally-mandated side-marker lights (which first appeared on the '68s). Looks like maybe somebody in Youngstown got creative with the silver paint.


Hi! WeAreFremily, and we are addicts- of Halloween!
It's true- ever since Freddy and I met, Halloween was always our favorite holiday! I somehow got him to dress as a beautiful Snow White on our first Halloween together in San Francisco! And then we were Hamilton before Hamilton was cool (super hipsters)! The next year he convinced me to wear the heaviest headdress on earth (and space) for our Star Wars year- which was totally worth it, until I tried to walk through doorways! Ha!
Not only did we go BIG on our costumes, but we threw Halloween parties every year, filled with animatronic little girls eating brains, a bloody massacre kitchen with headless bloody mannequin bodies and a full size casket in the backyard. Real life! It was demented!
Obviously, when Oliver came along, we realized that we needed to scale things down a bit. So, with much kicking and screaming on my part, we had to leave all gory decorations in our storage- talk about separation anxiety!
Despite the fact that we left all of the frightening decor hidden, Oliver started to take a liking to Halloween! It may have been me whispering Halloween stories in his ear as he slept, but who knows?!
Last year, he didn't have much choice. We just dressed him up and stuck him in between some pumpkins- he looked too adorable not to!
But this year, this little boy wanted to put out decorations before it was even October! We started with the "safe" decor – cartoon skeletons and pumpkins – and he adored it!! And so did Luda!
Don't ask about the colorful shirt- Freddy made me wear it and I could only resist for so long. After Oliver was introduced to the kid friendly decor, every trip to Target resulted in him wanting more decorations and begging to go to the Halloween section. Of course, this included needing any Halloween outfit, shirt, pajamas, or accessory in sight! These mummy pajamas were no exception and immediately turned him into a scary Mummy!! .
In addition to the Target trips, every morning on the drive to school, we have to listen to toddler Halloween songs and sing every single line about witches flying all about, spiders crawling up the haunted house and zombies – his favorite character to imitate!
Finally, one day the patch was complete and we promised to take him after school.
He, of course, needed to wear his favorite bat outfit, complete with a hoodie and bat ears (H&M), his bat mask (Pottery Barn Kids) and his favorite toy (Quack) ! Instead of placing him in the middle of pumpkins like last year, we literally had to chase him around the patch as he was overly excited to see all of the Halloween fun!
Luckily, we were able to get him to sit still long enough to get some family photos and the most adorable photos of him, some pumpkins and Quack! Don't let his face fool you- he loved the animals in the petting zoo and wanted to pet them all.
When it came to deciding what Oliver would be for Halloween, it was a no-brainer! He absolutely LOVES anything Bug and so it was just a matter of which bug to be. One Saturday, we were looking through the haunted Pottery Barn Kids catalogue and he spotted the most perfect light up Lightning Bug! He immediately said "mine mine!" And with that, it was done!
We went into our local Pottery Barn Kids and they helped us order it in time to make sure we had it in time for our Halloween carnival. Once it arrived, he was in love and wanted to check out himself in the mirror and watch the eyes and tooshie light up!
We went to his big cousins' Halloween carnival and he was definitely in his element! Halloween, dancing, spooky decorations and candy! As you can tell, he was one happy lightning bug!
Our Halloween fun couldn't end there, so one Saturday after soccer we decided to decorate pumpkins. Daddy was in Puerto Rico working at the time, so I had to make sure we didn't make too much of a mess- Freddy is a clean freak! We tried to keep it clean, but mummy's are messy!!
Of course, Oliver made a spider pumpkin and mommy made a Mummy pumpkin- both of which needed to become part of the home decor! He was so proud!
Now, he is at the age where he is starting to have an opinion on everything, including his clothing. Monday morning (and every day that followed), he insisted on a spooky outfit! Thankfully, we were fully stocked up! This also correlated with the first time he didn't cry at school- coincidence? I think not! He just needed his spooky vibe and he was fine!
Because of Oliver's love of Halloween, his new little baby also needed some Halloween gear- of course! That's where my sweet and Dracula-esque friend Chelsey came in and saved the day! Not even a week after she found out about our new little one, she sent the sweetest Halloween outfits for the new one and for Ollie! It was also the day daddy came home from Puerto Rico, so Oliver was sporting his shirt from daddy's trip as well!
Now I know some of you are doing the math and thinking that a new born Halloween onesie will not be able to be worn in March…. well- lesson learned! Our little one will be rocking this thing all Spring long! It's too cute not to!
In addition to Halloween being my favorite, I adore winter in general, primarily for the hats and beanies!! I have what some would call a seven-head (as opposed to a four-head), and so the moment I feel a breeze I'm in beanies all season long!
So, this was our second pumpkin patch of the season, and the excitement and running tripled this time! I could not keep up with this crazy boy!!
The only thing that stopped him in his tracks this time were the animals. We decided to buy food to feed the animals this time, which I thought was a great idea. Well, I was wrong! He wanted absolutely nothing to do with it. Mommy ended up being a shield and he couldn't wait to get out of that pen!
This pumpkin patch trip was not as long as the first- he literally ran himself to the ground, and we ended up leaving without any more pumpkins. Since we already had a million at home, we were okay with it!
Being a Vegas native, I like to pride myself in knowing all of the hot spots- which have significantly changed since being a mommy. More like splash pads and Gymboree as opposed to Bottle service and Marquee VIP, but I wouldn't trade it for the world.
Anyhow, I was introduced to the Opportunity Village Halloveen at the Magical Forest last year, and, after being shocked I didn't know about it, I fell in love! So naturally, we had to take Oliver again this year! We met his cousins at the Magical Forest, which Oliver calls the Haunted Forest, and had way too much fun with light up swords, pumpkin patches, running from Jack Skeleton, running to Jack Sparrow, and sitting in a real police car ("Good guy" car).
With Oliver's love of Halloween, when the teacher sent an email around saying that Pajama Day was coming up, we knew immediately that we were going to call the Mummy outfit "pajamas" no matter what- hey, he wore slippers with it! Totally night time gear if you ask me.
Once he put it on and I needed a photo, he turned into a zombie right away, with his tongue out and arms raised, while making moaning sounds. He's a natural.
Now, no blog post would be complete without more of our little pumpkin in the mix! This week was week 17, and our little one was sure on the move! We visited the doctor on Wednesday and the baby was, in Oliver's words, "super super big!" Maybe he was speaking of my tummy – who knows?!? Speaking of tummy, I felt our first real movement this week!! The night of our doctors appointment, we were getting ready for bed, and our little pumpkin clearly wanted more attention.
He or she began kicking or swimming or something- it was incredible! I remember the feeling with Oliver, but it was like this was brand new. For anyone out there with children, I'm sure you'd agree that it's such a magical time when you can finally feel or see the first movements. Your connection with the baby is even more intense and, for me at least, I could sit and feel those flutters for hours!
With our little pumpkin growing, who knows what I'll be able to fit this belly into for Halloween, but I'm sure to figure out something!
Trick or Treating is at our house this year, so keep an eye out for our Instastory capturing all of the fright!
Oh, and of course, check back for more posts about our Halloween and baby adventures!

Douglas C. Powell age 47 of Tequesta, passed away Monday April 8th, 2019.
He was born in Palm Beach Gardens on October 19, 1971 to Mallory and Patricia Powell of Tequesta. He is survived by his parents and 2 sisters, Debra (George) Andres, Darlene (Sam) Combs, his son Calvin and his mother Maria Powell, 3 nieces and 3 nephews, and 1 great nephew; and many loving Aunts and Uncles and cousins.
Douglas graduated from South Fork High School in 1990 and then he attended the Universal Technology Institute of Texas where he achieved a degree in automotive technology. He worked for Maxon/Seagate Marina for 21 years.He was an avid sportsman, he loved fishing and hunting.
He has MANY friends that will miss him as well as his loving family.
Dougie- I remember that photo like it was yesterday. You, Drawdy, and the "Big Man,"Brad), introduced me to Florida fishing. We always had so much fun. I remember when we went offshore for the first time and you tied a 5 gallon bucket to my line!! You always helped us when Terri and I needed help at the house. Carlos loved you- you were so kind to him. You were special to our family and we will never forget you. We love you.


I have been on a quest to get a periwinkle blue fabric. This is the closest I have gotten. At least the darker piece is close to what I have been wanting. I added the tiniest bit of fuchsia to blue dye.
I also squirted a melange of dye on some cheesecloth, just to see what I would get. And, I love it.
I am still feeling mopey and having good and bad days of pain. If I go to the studio and take a walk, it seems to be too much for my knee. I then have to spend the next day, doing as little as possible. I have gotten this much done on the sleeves for Paige's Winnie the Pooh sweater.
I am going to work on doing a stitched collaged, using some of the demo fabrics I did for our printing class at Trinity. I want to give the students an idea of how to use their fabrics. Maybe I will have something to show tomorrow. I spent leap year day doing very little.
It has been an interesting few days since I last posted. I had all good intentions of celebrating my 11th blogiversary, but life got in the way. On Friday morning, Mr C had a TIA or mini-stroke and I spent a couple of days running back and forth from the ER and the hospital. It was minor and he recovered very quickly, but it was scary for a time.
Up above is a snippet of an old piece that I did for my Israel trip solo show, a few years ago. It is about the graffiti on the Palestinian side of the security wall. I thought it would work well for the SAQA turmoil show, but it was not quite big enough so I am mounting it on black dupioni silk. I quite like it. I think it gives it more presence.
Last night, Mr C and I had the fun experience of attending a chocolate tasting party with our friends who took a chocolate class at the London Cordon Bleu when they were living there. We had six different chocolates, 3 from France and 3 from Portland. They had varying amounts of cacao.
We were given sheets to keep notes on aroma, taste, texture and finish.
There was only one chocolate from Portland that we liked: Moonstruck. All of the French chocolates were divine.
After the tasting adventure, we got to dip our own truffles in tempered chocolate. Here is the tempering machine with the luscious chocolate.
Here are my truffles. I like the little swirls I got on the tops.
Cheryl packaged them up for us to take home.
Paige wants a purple sweater with Winnie the Pooh. I found a pattern and picked up the yarn, yesterday.
Last night was week one of a printing on fabric workshop that my friend, Allan Oliver, and I are teaching at Trinity. We have two wonderful assistants, both named Liz!! Mr C and I went down in the afternoon and raised two tables on pvc pipe. Then, I covered the tables with plastic, two layers of felt and muslin. I set up tubs for water to wash screens and stencils.
I also set up a sample for a demo to show how to layer designs with paint. I sponge painted a background.
We had a full house, many of the participants were men! I think everyone had a good time.
We have a big empty bulletin board where we hung work to dry.
Here are samples of some of the best work.
Today, I am just plain pooped. It has been a busy week so I am taking it easy.
One of the favorite quilts that I have ever made, XXOO, was accepted into Fantastic Fibers at the Yeiser Art Center in Paducah, KY. I entered it on a whim last month thinking that it was time for it to get out in the world again. I am so excited to be in the prestigious fiber art show. Wish I could go to the opening, but that is about when I will be having knee replacement — April 9 through June 4th.
I am having a busy week and trying to pace myself. I had High Fiber Diet meeting this afternoon, SAQA in the morning and then I start teaching a printing on textiles class at Trinity for 5 weeks, tomorrow night. I hope to have some fun pictures to post.

Forkliftaction News is free training. Encourage your colleagues and staff to read because It will challenge your staff to be competitive.
But most importantly, every week, Forkliftaction endorses the message that….
The Decision makers in our industry. The Board Members, the ones who sign the cheques / checks.
The employees and forklift users from your target market who influence the decision makers.
Your suppliers or better suppliers with better distribution networks, better prices.
The innovators and design engineers who can help you build on your ideas.
So does Forkliftaction get to these people?
Is it a venue where your company can mix with the elite?
Board members in 380 forklift manufacturing factories.
I have counted 3,666 design engineers and seen the registrations of Board members in thousands of factories and warehouses, in the Ports, in the lumber industry, in wine and beer, in farming and construction, in abattoirs and factories.
Importantly the readers also include your staff and your competitors. That is good because business is a bit like "Le Tour de France". You need your team motivated, trained and competitive and sometimes you need to take your competitors along if you want to break away from the Peloton.
Most companies have someone reading the Forkliftaction News but we do still get about 150 new people and new companies registering every week.
I notice that many successful and progressive companies, the companies who invest in the personal development of their staff, actively encourage their colleagues to read Forkliftaction News.
has information and ideas on every page that challenge your staff to be competitive in their endeavours.
Why wouldn't you encourage your staff to use it?
your people play a very important part in a very important industry, doing great and useful things in our world.
Who are these smart companies who value the influence of Forkliftaction? Some are large companies, some are small family companies but in common, they are the ones on the move.
What can you do to make the most of these resources for your company?
I will give you an indication if Forkliftaction reaches your company effectively and then we can work together to encourage your other staff to register also.
Let me illustrate with a short story.
When I had 10 staff, and again when I had 1200 staff I thought that I could get my message (call it propaganda perhaps) to them by calling a meeting, writing a company memo and being a nice guy etc. Gradually I began to understand that there was always one or two in the group who did not get the message and that these people regularly infected my team with their negativity.
At one time when we had safety issues and poor morale for various reasons, I thought that no amount of effort could sway these 1200 people who had a smoldering of discontent, and then, by chance I selected our top forklift drivers and entered them in the Queensland safe forklift drivers competition. Our top man won the competition and went on to win the Australian Finals of the competition.
The great success was published in the local News. Amazingly our staff were buoyant as they arrived at work. They happily told each other that they now worked in the company that had Australia's greatest forklift driver; in a company where they personally helped keep the safety standards so high in every warehouse job they did, on their packing bench, in their box shop, in the dock out in the yard; a company where they loved to work because it was progressive and where they were able to have an influence on success and safety.
I saw our staff change a decade of poor and negative work performance seemingly overnight.
The key, I think is getting an outsider, a third party to run your message.
I now like to see the success some companies have with a mix of good management and influences that contain a good dose of seeding their message through third party publication…I like to see companies tell the world of their plans and the prestige of their products and services along with the achievements of their team and if they do these promotions in an elite environment you can see that their staff love it and love working for that company.
We all recognise that we are all too busy and we all have too much information, but the decision makers still find time to read Forkliftaction. Why do they read it?
Why is Forkliftaction so popular?
… because at Forkliftaction readers are respected as busy people who do not need their time wasted. News and Discussion Forums are clearly separate from paid advertisements.
There is a "No advertorials" and "No Spin" policy.
Honest reporting attracts serious decision makers and clean technical discussions result in good research and excellent results.
Look how upset the Forum users, technicians in particular, get if someone places a comment on the Forkliftaction Discussion Forums that is self-promoting. It is a strict taboo, a strict "No! No!".
As the Discussion Forum Moderator I know that it is not easy to keep advertising away. Forum discussion activity has intense focus and many want to get a free message in there. We want and encourage vibrant discussions and new ideas and we recognise that these valuable discussions; this valued resource would soon become just another advertising platform if we did not guard it jealously.

Hundreds of students took our 2018 Summer Survey. Here are a few things we learned!
What made you decide to take Summer Session?
What are some of your favorite parts of Summer Session?
Share one highlight from a summer class.
Building my own video game!
What has been your biggest challenge, frustration or problem during Summer Session?
Keeping up with a bunch of readings!
I didn't realize how much dedication and personal accountability online classes would require.
I didn't expect this going in, but I love the intimacy of the campus, it really allows for you to get close to the summer session community and the experiences I have now are unforgettable. One thing I loved about summer is the fact that I can now actually appreciate the beaches and the oceans of Santa Cruz as the weather allows for every possible beach outing. I can finally sit down and focus on one class without sacrificing another class, and that has made a dramatic difference in grades. Although time is cut short, the fact that I can organize it without interfering with other classes is amazing.

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba receives staunch defence amid Jose Mourinho row
Paul Pogba's relationship with Jose Mourinho appears untenable but a likely source has jumped to his defence.
Liam Corless
Didier Deschamps has defended Paul Pogba as criticism of the midfielder intensifies following one of the most controversial weeks in the midfielder's career.
A rollercoaster period for Pogba began when he publicly questioned Jose Mourinho's tactics in the immediate aftermath of Old Trafford draw with Wolves on September 22.
"We are at home and we should play much better against Wolves. We are here to attack," said Pogba. "When we play like [that] it's easier for us."
Those remarks led to Mourinho stripping him of the vice-captaincy last Tuesday, before the pair were then filmed having a heated discussion in a training session at Carrington the following day.
That was eventually put down to an Instagram-related misunderstanding and it was confirmed by Mourinho in his press conference on Friday that the 25-year-old would start against West Ham on Saturday.
Pogba did start but was one of United's worst players in the defeat at the London Stadium and was substituted midway through the second half.
Paul Pogba was withdrawn midway through the second half of United's defeat by West Ham
Pogba enjoys a markedly better relationship with France manager Deschamps than he does with Mourinho and the World Cup-winning manager has leapt to the former Juventus player's defence.
"For Paul it depends not only on him but also the team he is in, the collective way of playing," he told the Guardian.
"It is not a case of one player who makes the team win.
"There are a few things people ought to know. First of all there is an image of Paul that doesn't correspond to who he is. Maybe it is because he is a bit eccentric, a bit demonstrative.
"He has been with me since 2013 – that is five years now – and the way he functions is not about him for himself, it is him as part of the group. That is really important.
"His image in the media makes everything quite complicated. The amount of the transfer to Manchester United is ridiculous... it wasn't easy to manage.
"During this World Cup he managed to get a normal image back. The fact he talks, it liberates him a bit, but the most important thing is that Paul came to this World Cup with a very precise idea: he wanted to prepare himself to be world champion. That is what he had in his mind."

Property technology focused Alate Partners launches with $40 million in seed funding
Meagan Simpson
@megesimpson
Published: November 13th, 2018
Today a new business launched in Toronto with the focus of funding, developing and adopting technology to help improve the property and real estate market.
Jake Cassaday associate partner Relay Ventures and board member Alate Partners. Courtesy: Relay
Alate Partners launched its property technology or proptech business with $40 million in seed financing, in partnership with Canadian real estate company Dream Unlimited and venture firm Relay Ventures.
"Amid the backdrop of an exponentially growing real estate market and technologies that will drive efficiencies in this sector, Alate will build an ecosystem that brings together leading proptech innovators with influential real estate owners, operators and managers," the press release stated.
Alate is looking to invest and buy proptech that is going to change, augment and disrupt the entire real estate industry, Jake Cassaday, associate partner at Relay and board member of Alate told ITBusiness.ca.
What is Proptech?
Proptech is essentially anything that includes technology made for the building, buying, managing and operations of properties. Anything from real estate transactions to organizing labour on a construction site and managing the internal operations of a rental building.
Real estate has been quite behind when it comes to tech advancements Cassaday said, and now companies in North America are looking at how to change and modernize to be more efficient and make better experiences for residents, home owners, property managers. "What people are looking for has changed so much in the last five to ten years, " he claimed, noting that everyone in apartment buildings typically owns a smartphone, uses smart home technology and proptech needs to keep up with that and "push intelligent data to the frontlines."
Technology is set to play an increasing role in real estate, states to a report from PwC Canada about emerging trends in real estate for 2019, "as fast-paced technological and social change transforms how people live and work, the real estate sector faces rising pressure to respond with new ideas by accelerating digital transformation, being more innovative with deal strategy and rethinking how it addresses affordability."
Investments in Proptech
With its launch announcement, Alate also announced initial investments in two startups; Toronto-based Lane, which has created an operating system for buildings that runs through its app received seed investment from Alate, and ParkWhiz, which is a smart parking solution that allows parking lot operators to connect with drivers for finding, booking and paying for parking spaces, it received more than $20 million dollars is a series D funding round.

At this point in its launch Alate is focused on finding and investing in already existing proptech startups and ideas, said Cassaday but as it grows, has plans to develop its own ideas when there are gaps in the market that could gain from lower costs, increased efficiency and unique experiences.
Courtney Cooper, director of corporate development for Alate, told ITBusiness.ca that the company will work closely with real estate company Dream to help validate the technology solutions they invest in and develop. So far Dream has already started using Lane's operational app in its head office.
Relay "recognize[d] the tremendous potential for those technologies designed specifically for the real estate market," said John Albright co-founder and managing partner at Relay Ventures, "this is an industry vertical that is primed for significant global growth.
"By partnering with Dream, and other real estate partners, we are bringing together our extensive knowledge and expertise in the technology sector…with a global scope of expertise that includes residential and commercial property development and management," Albright stated in the release.

Q: How to show input based on previous selected option PHP? I have a form with many fields and I need to get several values only after selected specific field. For example after page loaded div2 gets value, probably random or last array's company Id ... but I need this value should be empty and after selected div1 it changes to that id (div1's id).

Name
  <select id="select-company" name="company_id">
    <?php
     foreach($companies as $company){
       $company = (object)$company['Company'];
       echo '<option value="" disabled selected >select</option>';
       echo '<option value="'.$company->id.'">'. $company->display_name .'</option>';
     }
    ?>
  </select>

  ID

  <input name="id" value="'. $company->id .'"/>

How can I get company Id in div2 only after value selected from div1? All data is already presented on page (in var_dump($companies)).

A: If the data company id,name ..etc is from database you need javascript + php ( ajax ).

Q: How long does it take for Ajax success function to wait a response from the server? When making Ajax call to an API which fetches data from db and returns response back to the callback function of the Ajax call made.

*

*How much time does it take for this callback function to wait for a response
from the API which fetches data from db ?

*Is there a way of increasing this time of waiting for a response by the
callback function of the Ajax call made?

A: Yes, you can customise the timeout for the request.
Assuming, you are using jQuery. If not, you can customise timeout for raw XHR request as well, just google out the syntax
Below is an example, of how to do it:
$.ajax({
    url: "/url/to/the/endpoint",
    error: function(){
        // will fire when timeout is reached, or server responded with error status code
    },
    success: function(){
        //will fire when 200 success was received from the server
    },
    timeout: 3000 // sets timeout to 3000 milliseconds, You can change according to your need
});

Hope it helps!

Restaurant of the Year 2001, 2003, 2008
Les Amis - Restaurant
Fifteen years ago, a star was born and it was christened Les Amis. Today, it still shines as bright as before. Located in the heart of the Orchard Road shopping district, it is one of the world's best restaurants. Constantly considered as one of the best dining experiences in Singapore and the Asian region, without doubt, Les Amis is the perfect embodiment of exclusiveness and sophistication.
Les Amis first opened its door to guests on 15 March 1994 and like any star worthy of its adoration, it underwent multiple refurbishments to keep up with the times. Currently, it is a model of style and refinement – its irregular glass façade coupled with its gorgeous teak and yellow marble interiors truly personify elegance and chic. And it is not just all beauty as its substance is what makes it the envy of many.
Ever since the first guests stepped into Les Amis, it has been serving magnificent cuisines accompanied by superb selection of wines. From Chef Justin Quek to Chef Armin Leitgeb, there is no compromise in the quality of cuisine served at the restaurant. With a focus on light and contemporary dishes with evident French influence, the chefs of Les Amis have awed the guests with superb ingredients, delicate tastes and stunning flavours. Through and through, it is a fine dining experience like no other.
When a star has won that many awards and recognitions in such a short span of time, it indeed epitomises greatness. Les Amis is definitely a star like that. In less than two decades, Les Amis and its tour de force has been constantly recognised by the World Gourmet Summit Awards Of Excellence. And it is not just one or two awards. Chef Justin Quek (Chef Of The Year), Randy See, Aby Tan and Timothy Goh (all were awarded Sommelier Of The Year and Restaurant Manager Of The Year between them) all won awards in their respective categories. Moreover, Les Amis was also recognised for its wine list. To top it all off, it was named Restaurant Of The Year three times. And if that's not proof enough, it is also Asia's third best restaurant as acknowledged by the Miele Guide.
Les Amis is a multifaceted star – combining the pleasures of splendid cuisine and fine wine with unforgettable service in a luxurious setting. Les Amis is more than just a restaurant, it is an experience.
Interview with Les Amis Pte Ltd
What does being in the World Gourmet Summit Awards Of Excellence Hall Of Fame for Restaurant of the Year mean to Les Amis?
The team certainly feels delighted and proud of this award. All accolades mean a lot to the restaurant as it both signifies our customers' satisfactions and appreciation of the team's hard work!
What do you (the restaurant) hope to achieve in the near future?
We want to continue to deliver high quality dining experiences. It is even harder to maintain and deliver consistency the higher we climb. That is one focus which the team has. As we've heard, the Michelin Guide is coming to Singapore soon. We want to ensure that we're on the right track. After all that is said, we want to strive to retain the trust in our customers that they believe in Les Amis.
Can you share with other establishments in the industry the problems you've had to overcome to achieve this accolade?
One challenge which we will always have is the turnover in the team just like any good restaurant. Having new members on board means to be able to quickly synchronise their mentality with the philosophy of the restaurant and not affording to make crucial mistakes. Or even the slightest as every little detail counts for us.
What do you think makes your restaurant unique?
All I can say is that we work really hard in maintaining the standards and we go the extra mile by double checking on it.


Seamless, responsive, always on: the digital customer experience is a significant priority for nearly everyone we surveyed. But two thirds said they fail to meet customer expectations and over a half are unable to extract value from their customer data.

Barbara McNear Smith
Nov 20, 1926 - Mar 24, 2019
Barbara was born on November 20, 1926 in Los Angeles, CA to Ellis and Dorothy McNear. Later her family relocated to Fresno, CA where Barbara attended elementary school, concluded her education at Fresno State, and raised her family.
A fun fact that Barbara loved to share was that her uncle, Howard McNear, was Floyd the Barber on the Andy Griffith Show.
In her later years, Barbara enjoyed giving back to her community by offering her time by volunteering. While living in Fresno, she'd often be found at Holiday Boutique and Valley Children's Hospital. In 2009, when Barbara moved to Turlock, CA to be closer to family, she continued volunteering at Emanuel Medical Center and Covenant Care at Home Hospice. Most recently and perhaps her most favorite volunteer work took place at her granddaughter's dental office where, even at the age of 92, she shredded papers and highlighted the appointment book.
Barbara is preceded in death by her parents, Ellis and Dorothy McNear, her brother, Warren McNear, and her son-in-law, Dr. Gary Daley.
She is survived by her daughter, Nancy Daley, her son, Todd Smith (Jane), her grandchildren Kaci Kuykendall (Dustin), Craig Sims, Sam Smith, and Paul Smith, and her great-grandchildren, Baron, Ellis, and Blythe Kuykendall.
We thank you all for loving Barbara. She was an amazing listener and cherished those who wanted to share their stories with her.
A private Celebration of Life gathering will take place at a later time. Please share your memories at www.Allenmortuary.com.
Donations can be made in Barbara's name to Jessica House and/or Alexander Cohen Hospice House.
