FARGO - Laurelyn Keener has a rather unusual job-she's a veterinarian specializing in equine dentistry. "Most people are pretty fascinated and want to hear more about what I do and then they just kind of shake their heads and laugh," she said. She spends much of her time traveling in North Dakota, Minnesota and the western edge of Wisconsin checking on horse's mouths and teeth. "The more I learned about teeth, the more fascinated I was by how dynamic their mouth is and how important good dental health is for all species, definitely for all horses," said Keener, who owns North Wind Equine Veterinary Dentistry in Duluth, Minn. Keener says all horses, especially young horses, need their teeth checked annually. "Young horses under the age of 5, their teeth are sharper, and as they age they don't develop quite as quickly," she said. "You might not have to do as much grinding every year in an older horse, but we want to make sure they don't have any periodontal disease, broken teeth or any other problems that would make them less efficient in chewing their feed." She also takes care of misaligned teeth. "The teeth should not hang down like little saber teeth in the front," she said. "They should be fairly level." Emma Nelson of Kathryn brought her horses to see Keener when the veterinarian recently visited the North Dakota State University Equine Center in Fargo. She did it for "peace of mind," she said, and had no idea her horses had any issues. "The horses are hopefully going to thank me for it," Nelson said. Before lightly sedating the animals to help them through the procedure, Keener listens to their heart, lungs and gut to make sure everything sounds like it should.
"I think it's like being very drunk or like having laughing gas," she said of the sedation. "They're aware and they can learn, you can teach them to be good or bad clients to a certain extent based on how you handle them. But it does have some amnesia properties as well. It doesn't make them trailer shy." Sometimes the animals are hesitant at first, but Keener and the sedation help calm them. "Some of them really figure out we're trying to help them," she said. "Maybe they're scared or they're really fighting the work at first, and we just kind of work with them and try to help settle them and suddenly a light goes off and they figure out, 'Hey, this is feeling better.' Something that's hurt for a while feels better and they kind of take this big breath and they step forward and just totally relax into it." About a year and a half ago, Keener worked on a mini donkey that had been in pain for a while. "He was just a star for me to work on him," she said. "I think he figured out I was helping him. He reached over and kind of grabbed my glove so I pulled it down. He started licking my hand, about broke my heart. He just kind of said, 'Thank you, thanks for helping.' " There are 12 veterinarians worldwide who are board-certified in equine dentistry, said Keener, who is not board-certified. But it is a growing field and there are programs underway to encourage more veterinarians to specialize.

Uber's self-driving unit gets its own CEO and a $1 billion investment
Toyota, Softbank and Denso teamed up on a deal that values Uber ATG at $7.25 billion.
04.18.19 in Transportation
As Uber finally closes in on its IPO, its self-driving car unit is getting a big cash infusion and some independence. The company announced tonight that Toyota, Denso and Softbank are investing a total of $1 billion in its Advanced Technologies Group (Uber ATG), in a deal that values that part of the company at $7.25 billion. This adds onto Toyota's $500 million investment last year, which the two said would lead to the creation of an autonomous fleet based on Toyota's Sienna minivan.
So far, many of the big car companies are teaming up to develop autonomous tech combined with ridesharing angles as it's expected to be a huge market in the next few years. According to Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, "The development of automated driving technology will transform transportation as we know it, making our streets safer and our cities more livable. Today's announcement, along with our ongoing OEM and supplier relationships, will help maintain Uber's position at the forefront of that transformation."
In the statement Toyota EVP Shigeki Tomoyama said "Leveraging the strengths of Uber ATG's autonomous vehicle technology and service network and the Toyota Group's vehicle control system technology, mass-production capability, and advanced safety support systems, such as Toyota Guardian™, will enable us to commercialize safer, lower cost automated ridesharing vehicles and services."
The deal won't close until Q3, which should be well after Uber's initial public offering that's on track to occur in May. It's also being announced after Arizona prosecutors announced they did not find the company criminally liable for a 2018 self-driving car crash that killed a pedestrian. The deal makes Uber ATG its own corporate entity that's controlled by Uber. Reuters reports that it has ATG head Eric Meyhofer as CEO reporting to a newly-formed board of directors, with six appointed by Uber, one by Toyota and one by Softbank.

Q: Proguard Error- NoSuchMethodException in EnumTypeInt I have an interface named EnumInt and using it as below
                 case EnumInt:
                        @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
                        Class<? extends EnumInt> enumType = (Class<? extends EnumInt>) field.getType();
                        Method enumStaticMethod = enumType.getMethod("fromVal", int.class);
                        Object enumInstance = enumStaticMethod.invoke(null, object);
                        field.setAccessible(true);
                        field.set(entity, enumInstance);
                        break;

I have already keep whole package in progaurd but still getting

-keep class abc.cde.** { *; } // package having EnumInt interface and other files

    java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: fromVal [int]
    at java.lang.Class.getMethod(Class.java:2068)
    at java.lang.Class.getMethod(Class.java:1690)

I have tried Keeping EnumInt Interface, All native method, fields in proguard for preventing obfuscation but still unable to remove error.
Please note without proguard it is working fine.
Please help. Thanks in advance. Problem is specific to Enums.

A: Answering my own question for the future readers.
I was using another enum implementing EnumInt like below
public static enum CustomeType implements EnumInt {
    ALL(MSG_TYPE_ALL),
    IN(MSG_TYPE_IN),
    OUT(MSG_TYPE_OUT),

    int val;

    private CustomeType(int val) {
        this.val = val;
    }

    public static CustomeType fromVal(int val) {
        for (CustomeType messageType : values()) {
            if (messageType.val == val) {
                return messageType;
            }
        }
        return null;
    }
}

and i was missing the proguard obfuscation to prevent this enum.
Solution
Below line in proguard
-keep public enum abc.cde.a.CustomeType$** {
**[] $VALUES;
 public *;
 }

Amani Esperance: Dreams Do Come True!
It starts with a dream. Amani Esperance is a young Burundian woman with big dreams. "I come from a poor family but I got a chance of going to school with all the love and support of my parents, though life is hard. My family is founded on love." Amani is proud of who she is and where she comes from, and her talents are many: teacher, poet, and musician.
Dreams do come true. Amani's biggest dream is to further her education so she can help develop her beloved country and its people. She is grateful for your support that enables her to attend Bujumbura International University: "I am who I am today cause of BFI." We are grateful for you, Amani, especially your passion and commitment! BFI is honored to help Amani make her dream a reality.
Odette Habonimana is a perfect example of how the volunteers of BFI work to transform your gifts into life-changing opportunities for the people of Burundi.
Odette majored in English Literature at the National University of Burundi. She is a BFI English Club volunteer and also a coordinator for the Martin Luther King American Corner in Gitega. That would be enough for most people! But Odette saw that the women of Gitega needed more. She resolved to form a Women Empowerment Club.
The Women Empowerment Club will focus on women's rights and their abilities to change the community.
• The Club will teach women of all ages how to use their talents to develop Burundi families, socially and economically.
• BFI will coordinate local and national efforts to empower women.
• BFI will work to ensure that women have an equal voice in all institutions, public dialogue, and decision-making to determine the future of their families and country.
• BFI will work to ensure that women are educated at a high level and have financial means to invest in all domains in which they are able to work.
Odette gathered an enthusiastic group of more than 100 women. But the details were challenging. How would youdesign a program for 69 illiterate women, 9 high school students, and 30 university students? She developed a 9-month program of weekly meetings with a parallel track for literacy training in small groups. Each month has a different focus: the importance of women empowerment; developing personal goals; balancing commitments; money and time management; ideas for business start-ups; reacting to challenges; project and business planning; entrepreneurship; starting a new business; and computer skills.
The first cohort began in November 2015. When the training concludes in July 2016, more than 100 women will have gained essential skills to advance women's rights and reduce poverty through sustainable economic development.
• Begin following a path to an independent life through hard work.
Please join BFI as we work to support Odette and the women of Gitega.
Interested in Creative Ways to Help?
At BFI, we encourage creative giving tailored to your own interests and situation. We are endlessly grateful for your financial support, but you may also want to help in other ways.
Is an in-kind donation intriguing? One generous supporter gave 15 thermometers and 23 packages of sphygmomanometers and stethoscopes, worth $2500! They are crossing the ocean in a medical equipment and supplies shipment valued at more than $655,000, and will arrive in Burundi in July.
Would you like to volunteer with BFI? We welcome you with open arms, many opportunities, and a supportive team.
Here's an option that is quick and easy: donating unused frequent flyer miles to BFI.

BP: TANAP will help Turkey ensure its supply security
The Trans Anatolian Natural Gas Pipeline (TANAP) will help Turkey ensure its supply security, BP, which holds 12 percent share in the project, told Trend.
"As a shareholder of TANAP, BP is pleased with the progress the project has made and we expect it will safely and successfully carry first gas from Azerbaijan into Europe next year as it did in mid-2018 when it commenced to deliver first Shah Deniz 2 gas to Turkey," said the company.
BP said it believes TANAP is a critical part of the Southern Gas Corridor project which will transport Caspian gas from the Shah Deniz field to European markets for the first time.
"The Southern Gas Corridor offers Europe a new source of gas and brings an opportunity to diversify its energy mix. In addition, TANAP will help Turkey ensure its supply security by allowing to get 6 billion cubic meters of Shah Deniz 2 gas every year," said the company.
The opening ceremony of the Phase 1 of the Trans-Anatolian Gas Pipeline (TANAP) will be held on Nov. 30, 2019.
The opening ceremony will take place in Ipsala, Edirne province of Turkey.
In this area, near the Greek border, TANAP is connected to the Trans-Adriatic Pipeline (TAP), through which natural gas from Azerbaijan will be delivered to European countries.
Opening ceremony of TANAP's Phase 0 took place on June 12, 2018, in the Turkish province of Eskisehir, and commercial gas deliveries to Turkey began in late June 2018.
The volume of gas transportation to Turkey via TANAP has reached 3.08 billion cubic meters (bcm) since the start of commercial gas supplies on June 30, 2018 as of late October 2019.
The initial capacity of TANAP, which is the main segment of the Southern Gas Corridor, is 16 billion cubic meters of gas.
Around six billion cubic meters of this gas will be supplied to Turkey while the remaining volume - to Europe. After the completion of the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) construction, gas will be supplied to Europe in early 2020.
The share distribution of TANAP shareholders is as follows: Southern Gas Corridor CJSC - 51 percent, SOCAR Turkey Enerji - 7 percent, Botas - 30 percent, BP - 12 percent.

Stringing Together Ones and Zeros: What Does It Take to Be a Software Developer?
According to a report by the US news, software developers bag home an average salary of $95,510 yearly. In addition, being that it has the lowest unemployment rate, it's considered as one of the best careers. Sadly, with the positive outlook, only 2.4 percent of college students are pursuing computer and information science – which is worrying.
Bureau of Labor statistics estimates that between the year 2014 and 2024, the growth rate of these jobs will shoot to up to 17 percent. So, there's going to be 186,600 job openings in total – inclusive of the average growth for all occupations which is 7 percent. Below are what it take to be a software developer.
Finding a community of software developers to learn with can either make or break your journey to becoming a software developer.
Sharing with people of similar interest is important because you get support anytime you need their help. You can always reach out to your group members when you feel stuck so that they can help you out.
Honestly, in-groups are not very helpful and can be hard to connect with others. But, there are tons of online communities that are waiting for you to join, especially on Facebook.
You can also opt to learn with Learn-Verified where you can get access to a slack group. A slack group will enable you to come together with your colleague students and work through various topics on video chats.
Additionally, if you still don't find interest in the above, you can as well set up or e-join already existing online study groups. The advantage with this is that it's lively – 40 percent of of the total questions asked are answered by another student.
When you are just starting out, you may get stuck on which language to begin with. The beautiful thing is that there are lots of them you can select, starting from Ruby all the way to Django. It's your prerequisite – choose what's best for you.
The good news is that once you know a stack well, transitioning to another language won't be as hard as when you were just starting out with the first language.
So, that's to say, when you want to become a software developer, your focus should be primarily on understanding succinctly the programming cardinals.
Once you've got the grasp, you can effortlessly transition and learn other stacks and technologies well. You can try ITProTV's online IT training courses; they could be your perfect match.
You can only boast for what you do not what you know. Therefore, the stacks you learn won't matter a lot, what will matter is what you're able to do. That means, you need to have some time to perfect on what you learn.
So, the best way to do that is by having some time at least every day, or every week to recap on what you have learned.
Being a software developer isn't a quick rich scheme – you can't learn today and become a guru the following day. Never!
Some will claim that being developer takes 10,000 hours. Let's get honest here; you don't need literally 10,000 hours to land a software developer job, but you need to have some dedicated time to learn it.
In as much as people say lots of things out there, the reality is that you just need to dedicate some time to revisit what you learn on your new skill. Remember, it's what you do that gets you paid and not what you know.

Wyoming Man Killed in Motorcycle Crash Near Thermopolis
A 58-year-old Thermopolis, Wyoming man is dead after crashing his motorcycle near Thermopolis late Friday afternoon.
The crash happened around 4:45 p.m. at milepost 134 on U.S. Highway 20.
The Wyoming Highway Patrol says Joseph Watkins was entering a signed construction zone when he failed to slow for a pickup and a vehicle in front of it that were coming to a stop at the direction of a flagger.
The patrol says Watkins hit his brakes and laid his motorcycle over, causing him to separate from the bike and slide into a guardrail. The motorcycle hit the pickup and slid about 30 feet before coming to rest on the shoulder.
Watkins was not wearing a helmet and died from his injuries.
The patrol says driver inattention is being investigated as a possible contributing factor.

CBS blesses the Kings' Evil with an early season 2 renewal
October 22, 2019 at 07:57 PM EDT
Fall TV
It's a primetime miracle! Robert and Michelle King's freshman drama Evil has been renewed for a second season on CBS — after airing only four episodes.
Starring Mike Colter (Luke Cage) and Katja Herbers (Westworld), the metaphysical drama follows a priest-in-training (Colter), a forensic psychologist (Herbers), and a skeptical contractor as they investigate unexplained phenomena — possible miracles, demonic possessions, and hauntings — and seek to discover if there's a logical or supernatural explanation for what they find. After wrapping its 13-episode first season on Jan. 30, 2020, Evil will return for a second season in the 2020-21 television season.
Here's what EW's critic Darren Franich had to say about The Good Fight creator's scary show in his B+ grade review: "Evil already succeeds, though, as a relentlessly clever mash-up procedural, merging psychological medical mystery with techno-crime and spiritual struggle. Its paranoia is far-reaching and very bleak. You quickly realize that every piece of technology on screen could be turned against our heroes: smartphones, virtual assistants, the air itself stuffed with invasive Wi-Fi. There's a name for the place where demons can attack you from every direction for no reason, and it's not 'heaven.'"
ELIZABETH FISHER/CBS
Evil wasn't the only new CBS show that received some good news Tuesday afternoon. Freshman comedies All Rise, Carol's Second Act, The Unicorn, and Bob ♥ Abishola received full-season orders for the current broadcast season.
"These terrific new series have attracted a passionate base of viewers and consistent ratings while delivering entertaining, inclusive and relevant storytelling every week," said CBS Entertainment President Kelly Kahl in a statement. "They're off to strong starts and are still being discovered on the many catch-up and playback options available to our viewers today. We're proud of this freshman class and excited about their potential to tell more great stories and further expand their audiences."
EVIL airs Thursdays at 10 p.m. on CBS.

The pouch is made of heavy duty nylon with quality stitching.


"Most years have become the new 'most violent year'. This is continually getting worse."
The Syrian conflict -- which began a decade after Afghanistan's -- has claimed the lives of more than 15,000 people so far this year, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
The Taliban and other insurgents control or influence 14 percent of Afghanistan's 407 districts, the watchdog said in July -- unchanged from last year, when Trump unveiled his strategy.
The government, meanwhile, controls or influences 56 percent -- down from 57 percent in August 2017.


Yeah. It's a Feature Friday on a Saturday. That's what I get for not double-checking that I actually scheduled the blog post instead of just drafting it up. WHOOPS!
Which makes me laugh, because Adria is a wee bit sharp-tongued at times.
But they've got the star-crossed, fated-mates thing going on so it all works out in the end.
Adria Grimm lives at the highest point in Grimwood. The stories of what would befall her if she ever ventured down the mountain to the forest's edge are cautionary tales she's always lived by. Becoming a slave to the curse that hides in her blood isn't the fate she dreams of for herself.
When an injured man collapses on her doorstep, Adria reluctantly nurses him back to health. The man is aggravating and demanding and Adria can't wait until he's well enough to be on his way.
Waking with little memory of what brought him to the mountains, Micah Redfield has to piece his past together before he can complete the quest that drove him to this remote location. As it turns out, Adria has the answers he's been looking for, but deciphering the clues she's been left is only the beginning of their journey.
Working together, they will have to find a way to unlock the ancient magic hidden in the heart of the mountain before Grimwood itself falls.

Invisible Cities: An Interview with Christina Kubisch
The song of the machines
Christoph Cox and Christina Kubisch
In 2003, Berlin-based sound artist Christina Kubisch began an ongoing project called "Electrical Walks." This project employs specially built headphones that receive electromagnetic signals from the environment and convert them into sound. Kubisch maps a given territory, noting "hot spots" (ATM machines, security systems, electronic cash registers, subway systems, etc.) where the signals are particularly strong or interesting. She then loans the headphones to the public, allowing participants to undertake an auditory dérive through the invisible network of electromagnetic information. To date, Kubisch has undertaken her own personal walks in Germany, England, France, Ireland, Japan, Latvia, Sweden, Switzerland, Slovakia, Spain, Taiwan, and the United States, and has held public walks in Berlin, Cologne, Karlsruhe, Bremen, Oxford, and London. In September 2006, she will stage an "Electrical Walk" in New York as part of an exhibition of Berlin sound art at The Kitchen.
Christoph Cox spoke to Kubisch about her project by telephone in December 2005. To accompany the interview, Kubisch has provided thirty short sound samples gathered by her while walking through various cities. These samples, whose sources are listed at the end of this text, can be heard at www.cabinetmagazine.org/issues/21/kubisch.php.
Cabinet: Your background is in painting and music. How did you come to work with electromagnetic induction?
Christina Kubisch: I can't explain exactly why, but I've always been more interested in electrical things than, for example, classical music. I began investigating electrical fields at the end of the 1970s. I had been studying electronic music at the Conservatory in Milan. But the classes there were very conventional; and I wasn't very satisfied with what I was learning. So I decided to enroll in Milan's Technical University—which was very hard for me because my brain is not very scientific. One day I bought a telephone amplifier, a little cube that you could put next to your telephone so that you could hear it without having the receiver in your hand. The cube was switched on, and when I came into the laboratory, it started to make really strange sounds in my handbag. I took it out and asked my professor what was going on. He explained to me that there were coils in this little cube, and that they picked up some of the machines in the room. It was like a flash in my mind. It was exactly at the time when I wanted to get away from performance and start producing installations.
In my early installations, there were people wandering around with these little cubes in their hands, walking along thick electrical cables that had sounds running through them. I didn't think about using the sounds of the outside world. I had no idea about electricity in general or that it could make interesting sounds. I just used the system of electromagnetic induction as a way of amplifying musical sounds.
When did you develop the electromagnetic headphones?
It was kind of tiring to have these cubes in your hands all the time. So, four or five years later, I found a factory that built wonderful headphones. I went to them and asked whether they could put the components of the cube in the headphones. You know Italians, they like to invent things, especially when a blonde girl comes in and says, "Can you do this?" So I put all my money together—I was giving flute lessons at the time, a lot of flute lessons—and finally managed to pay for about twenty sets of headphones. The sound was better and more subtle. And the headphones worked over longer distances as well.
I used this system for several years. Eventually, the headphones got a bit broken. Sometimes people stole them. And I never got much money, because this was not considered a musical thing. It wasn't a concert or something you could sell on the art market. I wanted to go on with other pieces and investigations. So I put the equipment away. About eight or ten years later, I found a sponsor who knew about these works and who gave me the opportunity to construct an even better system. With this new system, in 1999 I did a really large installation at Potsdamer Platz in Berlin. When I put on the headphones again after all these years, I heard so many strange sounds: humming sounds, rhythms, and all kinds of things that, of course, disturbed me, because I didn't want them. Eventually, I realized that I no longer needed to put my sounds in cables because they were already out there. So I built a new generation of headphones that are especially sensitive to electricity and that don't supress or ignore all these electromagnetic fields but, instead, amplify them.
Audiowaves of the sounds emitted from various electromagnetic security gates found at shop entrances in London, Berlin, New York, Oxford, Paris, and Madrid; recorded in 2004 and 2005.
How do the headphones actually work?
Every current in an electrical conductor—for example a wire or a cable—generates an electromagnetic field. These currents can be "musical," like the signals running through loudspeaker cables; or they can come from electrical activity in the infrastructures of buildings or cities. The magnetic component of these fields is picked up by the sensor coils in the headphones. And, after amplification, these signals are made audible by the little speaker systems in the headphones. So if there's an electromagnetic field (say, an underground cable) and another one nearby (say, the headphones), the fields pick up each other. The sound jumps through the air from one to the other.
How does florescent lighting or a security system show up as sound?
You can transform any electromagnetic field into sound. That's what happens when you send electrical information through a speaker cable.
. . . or a telephone.
Exactly! Just what we're doing right now! It's just the same thing. When this electromagnetic information runs through a cable to a speaker, the speaker reconverts it into sound.
What are some of the devices that generate these sounds?
There are so many—and more and more each day. They are also different in every city. Some of the best ones are the security or anti-theft systems that are at the entrance of every shop. When you walk through them, you get pulsating sounds that have different rhythms (Tracks 4, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29). Some are so strong that you can't even come near them with the headphones. But they are all quite different. Some are very sophisticated, like the one at the Centre Pompidou in Paris (Track 19). Others are really simple, just a very constant beat. And some of them, interestingly enough, are not even working! I have a secret list for my friends! Lately, there are a lot of WLAN (Track 28), Bluetooth, and GPS systems, which make very nervous, crispy, irregular sounds. You can only hear them in certain areas. And sometimes, if you move 10 cm to one side or the other, they disappear. I think of them as electrical corridors.
I'm struck by the similarity between some of these sounds and minimalist techno: PanSonic or Alva Noto, for example.
Yes. There are some sounds that, when I listen to them for half an hour, sound to me like LaMonte Young. The tram in Bratislava, for example, is almost like a choir: a chord, three sounds together that are changing, but each at a different level (Tracks 7, 24). Subways, buses, and trains are especially musical, maybe because they depend upon a constant flow of electricity. There's a wonderful subway in China that sounds to me like electronic music of the 70s (Track 16; also 3, 21). Airplanes, though, sound really ugly: very high, thin, and noisy.
Is your interest in these phenomena primarily aesthetic or is there a critical element, a desire to call attention to the environmental and psychological implications of this electromagnetic web in which we live?
That's a hard question because I'm somewhere between. I have always been critical toward the way that people deal with technology and have made many pieces about the relationships between nature and technology. But I never point a finger and say, "This is bad" or "This is good." I'm more interested in having people recognize what's around them by doing it themselves. I could tell everyone that I think it's bad. But that wouldn't be an experience. It would just be didactic. On the other hand, this stuff is very fascinating as well. I mean, we love computers. We know that it's bad to sit in front of them for hours and hours; but we still love them. So we arrive at the middle of these two worlds—the real world and the continuing substitution of real experience by a technological experience that replaces much of what counted as experience in former times. I'm not nostalgic; but, of course, I am worried about how these fields around us are increasing.
This summer I put on my headphones during a very strong thunderstorm. There was no electricity, because all the power had gone out. But, when I recorded, I got the sounds of natural electricity, which was wonderful. The recording is so strange: very low, but very clear (Track 10). At two points, you hear voices. You can't understand the words, but you can tell that they are voices. I knew that electricity could transport voices, but I had never heard it before. It's quite breathtaking when you hear things like that. This is nature, too—electrical nature!
Does one often hear voices on your "Electrical Walks"?
There are a lot of induction systems for the hard-of-hearing. In the UK, I think they even have a law that churches or public meeting houses have to have these induction loops. What they don't know is that, with these headphones, you can hear exactly what's going on inside. In Switzerland, I came across a group of people—I think it was a group of Indian people—celebrating a religious service in their own language. Because I didn't understand the language, at first I thought it was some kind of terrorist meeting, with all this shouting and these rhythmic sounds. But then I heard the "hallelujah" and "amen," and I understood what it was (Track 18). In London, I walked by a church where I could hear the cleaning woman talking and, later, the organist playing jazz (Track 20). So you become a sort of spy. Sometimes you hear sounds from offices. I'm sure that people don't know that they have these induction systems in their private offices. They must be there in order to secretly spy on people.
Do different cities have unique sonic characteristics?
In Bremen, there's a tram system that you hear all over the city, even when you're not near it. It's a kind of basic drone that's very present. And in Madrid, a really persistent sound is that of the mobile phones that people carry around. You don't hear people talking, of course. But you hear when they dial—that moment when the information is being transported. It's a sort of short chirp: dip, da-rip, da-rip, da-rip, something like that. You hear that every moment, sometimes in duos or trios, because, in Madrid, everyone lives with their phones. In Taiwan, the sounds are very aesthetic. Maybe they have a new technology that's already very sophisticated. In Paris, you have some very heavy sounds, like in the train stations, where there is so much interrupted current. Train stations in general are very full, heavy, and dusty with sound (Track 26). In the short time when I walked in New York, the sound came from everywhere, and a lot of it from underground. It was incredibly dense. Even a short movement of my head made big changes in the sound. There are some places that are always interesting, places where there is money: banks, shops, people working. In residential areas, you mostly find low sounds, not so many rhythms. And then there are surprising places where you don't know what is happening.
Do you generally choose business or shopping districts when you chart territory for your "Electrical Walks"?
I start there, but then I go further out. I also ask people to tell me where they can imagine interesting possibilities. You can find interesting sounds anywhere. In the country, there are a lot of high-voltage wires (Track 8). They make very beautiful, very dense sounds. Everytime you stand under them it's different. But, of course, if you want to have a quick walk and a lot of direct information, then a shopping area is always good.
I know that you are interested in the idea that each participant is a creator who makes his or her own mix.
That's true. Each person should probably begin with the help of some instructions, so that they know, for example, that you sometimes have to go very close to things. In electronics shops, for instance, you have to bring your ears very close to the screens to hear them. And every screen has a different sound. Or sometimes you have to stop and do nothing. So the maps that I make are really just aids to teach you how to investigate on your own.
If you were to stand in one place for a while, would a signal likely pass your way?
Yes. Some places, like train stations—I could just stay there for hours. It's like a movie, an audio movie. Sometimes signals come for just a short time. So the sounds that I find may have disappeared by the time you get there, because the whole electrical world is constantly in flux. It's a mystery.
Your work connects with the recent renewal of interest in electronic pioneers such as Nikola Tesla, Guglielmo Marconi, Heinrich Hertz, Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, and others. What do you think accounts for this revival?
I've been working for so long on these electromagnetic investigations. Sometimes it was completely out of fashion; but now, as you say, it has become rather trendy. When Tesla started his experiments, there were no telephones and few trains. It was a very simple world. Maybe this is the fascination. Now that we are so surrounded by electrical signals, we look to the pioneers and come back to the first experiments. Back then, it was so physical. In those beautiful old photographs, you see these big machines. Today, everything is nearly invisible. Everything digital is so small and becomes smaller and smaller. You can't really touch or see it. So I think that's part of the fascination as well.
One of my favorite things is something I discovered in the diary of Heinrich Hertz, who died very young due to his experiments. For several days, he wrote nothing in his diary but phrases like "electromagnetic fields again" and "nothing but electromagnetic waves"—over and over!
Do you have plans to develop this work?
What I would really like is to do is to make a map of several cities and continents. In a large city, for example, where are the electromagnetic fields? Where are the security gates? You could just mark them with little dots. They even have the same sound systems all over the world. It's the globalization of sound. This is something that I think would be very interesting: to see a network of little dots showing where things are and where they are spreading. Every time I do an "Electrical Walk," it adds to this general map of sound that I'm collecting. It's artistic work, but it's a kind of social research, too.
Christina Kubisch is a Berlin-based sound artist. A pioneer of sound art installation, she is one of the most prominent European sound artists working today. Trained as a visual artist, musician, and composer, she studied painting, flute, and piano before turning to electronic music in the mid-1970s. Since 1980, she has focused on sound sculpture and sound installations that often involve ultraviolet light, solar energy, and electromagnetic induction.
Christoph Cox teaches philosophy at Hampshire College and is an editor-at-large of Cabinet. He is the author of Nietzsche: Naturalism and Interpretation (University of California Press, 1999) and co-editor of Audio Culture: Readings in Modern Music (Continuum, 2004). Cox is currently planning an exhibition of German sound art that will open at The Kitchen in September 2006.

SIP 16 outlines the required disclosures that an administrator must make to creditors of the details of any pre-pack agreement and sale. In this pre-recorded 1 hour webinar, Gareth Limb from Compliance On Call will draw on his wealth of experience of working with IPs to review the statutory duties and obligations of the administrator when it comes to pre-packs. He will give a refresher on the requirements of SIP 16, particularly the timing and content of disclosure to creditors, and discuss the principles of marketing, with some practical suggestions on how to comply with the SIP. Gareth will also talk through some do's and don'ts when it comes to submissions to the Pre-pack pool and will consider what the future holds for pre-packs. The access code to this webinar will be sent out on Friday 20th October, which will allow you the freedom to access the webinar at your own convenience.
Gareth undertakes friendly, but challenging compliance visits to IPs to minimise the risk of regulatory action being taken against them. He identifies statutory and SIP defaults and risk areas, and suggests solutions to the issues identified. Gareth worked for the Insolvency Service until 2002, latterly as head of the Insolvency Practitioner Compliance Unit where he was responsible for monitoring IPs licensed by the Secretary of State and the Recognised Professional Bodies. He then headed up ACCA's insolvency monitoring unit undertaking regulatory monitoring visits to IPs. In 2006 he joined Bill Burch at Compliance On Call and they now undertake compliance visits to over 150 clients as well as trying to influence the regulators.

Is it just me, or is the term "checks" something that generally isn't in CofD? Because I am seeing a lot of "checks" in reference to die rolls in the Seven Wonders entry, and it feels really... kind of off-putting. That said, I need to be up for work in around four-five hours, so haven't gone too closely to it.
That said, I am a little disconcerted by the new kiths in the chapter. Antiquarian's Blessing is good, but the Trickery is weird because it requires a number of successes to get an answer that the ST gives a number of successes for, and since it appears to be a single roll to get it it feels like a bit of a shot in the dark for something you can only do once a session. If it were an extended roll that worked once a session, that I would be happy with.
Chimera's nice to see again with a bit more fleshing out from Trial By Hearts, though I do note the Trickery now requires each of the Changeling's Goblin Contracts to get a turn not giving Debt when used before you can use the Trickery on them again, and that you choose which at the beginning of the story. Suffice to say, that's a bit of a long time to cycle through. Most of my Chronicles Of Darkness games haven't even seen the end of a single Story, much less lasted multiple.
Dryad's cool in both its Blessing and Trickery, no ifs ands or buts.
Muse is... weird for its Blessing. Rather than a die pool getting an exceptional success on 3 successes on a particular circumstance, we have it affecting Mantle or Court Goodwill as if it were one dot higher higher once a session. It's the Trickery that instead grants the "3 successes for an exceptional success" aspect, and it's being granted on another instead, which is interesting but overall a weird departure from the formula set by the core Changeling book. Plus it uses "check" for dice roll and doesn't give a set die pool which, again, is a departure.
Nymph's Blessing's nice and consistent, but its Trickery weirds me out because it's just a straight up buff to swimming without any costs or dice rolls to activate, which is weird because by and large the only abilities that did that were ones that benefited others.
I need sleep, given how many times I've said "weird" in this post. Let it be said I'm not lambasting this entry nor am I saying it's bad. It's clear that someone was inspired when writing these entries out and I like the ideas presented. I'm just not used to the conventions of the Kiths being bucked like this so soon into the game's lifespan. Then again, I'm a stickler for familiarity.

So it balanced.

Is it just me, or is the term "checks" something that generally isn't in CofD? Because I am seeing a lot of "checks" in reference to die rolls in the Seven Wonders entry, and it feels really... kind of off-putting.
It's not just you. CofD doesn't use checks - the word comes up exactly zero times in the core where dice mechanics are concerned.
it requires a number of successes to get an answer that the ST gives a number of successes for, and since it appears to be a single roll
We saw this sort of thing quite a bit in the Contagion Chronicle drafts, and a fair bit in other product previews.
Simple, uncontested rolls require a single success in this system.
This is not World of Darkness.
If your mechanic requires more than a single success, consider if you can accomplish your goal through dice penalties instead.
I feel like this needs to be enshrined and bolded in the writer's guides at this point. Yes, there are (vanishingly few) exceptions, but we shouldn't be seeing them with the frequency we have in recent product previews.
Thankfully, these instances have all been in preview products, not final ones, and the team has been very responsive to feedback.

As we are at mechanical problems - in 1001 Nightmares, i.e. Golden Age of Islam era - we have:

And number of dices in Clash of Wills is not pointed here. What it is?

So uh, dumb question I'm sure but, for those of us who missed the KS, is there a way to buy the advance PDF now?
My ideas are bad and I should feel bad.
The problem wasn't balance, it was how it isn't following the other Kith Trickeries by doing something far closer to 1e than 2e.
Trickery: Each kith harnesses a unique power in pursuit of its members' task. Using this power requires conscious effort. Most commonly, this is represented by spending one Glamour point and making an Attribute + Skill roll: A Helldiver can become immate- rial after spending a Glamour and rolling Dexterity + Occult. Exceptions to this ex- ist depending on the kith's function.
That is from the Kith creation rules, and while it does say "most commonly" none others have effects that just work like this one.

I believe so. When I used Backerkit to pick up Scion, PDFs and hardcopies were ordered as separate items. Nothing says DE2 has to be the same, but I suspect it will work the same way.

I must say that I was a bit surprised to see the Council of Bones getting mentioned in 1001 Nightmares. I mean, I was sure that they were a relatively young conspiracy, especially as their name is pretty simple compared to the other 3rd Tier groups. Now I wonder how old the Council actually is...

well, the name Ascending Ones is indeed out of place, but as far as I can tell from Witch Finders, I think that the Cult of the Phoenix existed long before Hunger in the Black Land. Nitocris is dated to the 6th Dynasty, which puts them between 2345 and 2181 BC. So yeah, the name Ascending Ones is out of place (or, more exactly, out of era), but the Cult should have existed during that time.

In relation to that, it's neat to see mehket as a common word for the blood drinking undead before what is one of the more commonly accepted points of origin for the Mehket proper.
That is from the Kith creation rules, and while it does say "most commonly" none others have effects that just work like this one.
There are functional reasons for it and it's not over powered.
And again, you're willfully ignoring what I am talking about. This is about consistency, not being overpowered. In Changeling everything has a price, be it glamour, willpower, effort in the effect of a roll or some environmental condition that has to be met. However, the Kith specifies that "magic" keeps the Changeling able to see and breath underwater but no condition where this magic won't work, just an obvious reasoning why it shouldn't be used on land. That's not consistent at all with the other powers and aspects of Changeling - that's something out of Beast: The Primordial (almost literally). I am not saying it should be removed or even changed much if it all, just that it feels weird to have it in this state. You are the only one citing it being overpowered (even if in saying it isn't).
Incidentally, your reason for it not being overpowered doesn't hold water. All kiths have their niche where are their Trickeries are useful, but they still have costs and conditions to use them. Just being useful underwater doesn't exempt Nymphs from this nor the possibility of being overpowered.

This has a price and the price is it's useless on land, it's a trade off on utility instead of resources. If it was spend glamour to use these abilities it would be awful, this keeps it balance. They made it clear their would be exceptions for just this sort of circumstance. I see it less as inconsistance, and more using the loophole that was intended for just this sort of circumstance.


Your PE teacher is a jerk! Can your parents talk to your principal? Someone should be advocating for you! I'm sorry you have to deal with this!
You have the note. He can't fight it.
Sue him for defamation of character. He'll choke on his whistle!
If you have a drs note and a note from your parents and your PE teacher doesn't excuse you. Take the note to the principal. If that doesn't work have your parents call your board of education and report them both. In the mean time sense it going to be 3 months I would try and find another DR to go to even if you have to drive far away. You shouldn't take the chance of damaging yourself any further.
Your PE teacher is treading very legally dangerous ground.
hey, that's bullying. completely unacceptable. seek legal counsel.
The teacher can accuse you as much as he/she wants, but he/she cannot force you to be active in class. If he/she does, inform your parents and have them arrange a meeting with the principal.. or better yet, have your parents meet the principal regardless if you are forced to or not. He/she has no right to accuse you of lying.


Share Expy Multimedia: Thinking about starting an eCommerce business?
E-commerce is a booming industry in Nigeria and has changed the way Nigerians shop in the country. The face of shopping in Nigeria has changed significantly in the recent years. Gone are those days when the customer had to go to the brick and mortar shops.
The demand for electronic transactions has attracted payment facilitators from Europe and Asia who are investing in Nigerian electronic infrastructure projects. Online commerce and financial technology in Nigeria is strengthened by fast growing youth populations, expanding consumer power, and increased smartphone penetration. The current Ecommerce spending in Nigeria is estimated at $12 billion, and is projected to reach $75 billion in revenues per annum by 2025 (McKinsey).
Many e-commerce ventures entered the market namely Konga, Jumia, Yudala to name a few. Africa Internet Group owns online retailer Jumia and 9 other e-ventures. Its best-known venture is online retailer Jumia, one of Africa's better funded startups. Since its inception in Lagos in 2012, Jumia now operates in 22 African countries selling everything from diapers to IPhones and microwaves.
The company had €33.0 million in revenues during the first 9 months of 2016, following a 56% drop in revenue attributable to economic depression despite spike in its customer base. Konga was set up in 2012 as a competitor to Jumia, selling a wide range of products from home appliances to groceries. During last December (2016) Yakata, another competitor reached over 155,000 orders, valued at nearly €10.0 million for the month alone.
This industry seemed so lucrative that China's Alibaba and Japan's Rakuten are already in the process of starting their operations in Nigeria. It is predicted that the $14.5 billion ecommerce industry will eventually become a $60-$10 billion industry by 2025.
The laws pertaining to the e-commerce companies in Nigeria are evolving. Initially, there was a sense of pandemonium regarding the legal sanctity of such companies. However, to be clear, such companies have to work in accordance with the National Information Technology Development Agency Act, 2007, (NITDA Act) eCommerce regulation now falls under the scope of authority of the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA).
In 2015, the Federal Government signed the Cybercrime bill into law to prohibit and prevent fraud in electronic commerce. The purpose of the Cybercrimes Act of 2015 extends beyond prohibiting, preventing and criminalizing online fraud, but also prescribes punishments and sets the institutional framework for enforcement. The goal is to protect e-business transactions, company copyrights, domain names and other electronic signatures in relation to electronic transactions in Nigeria.
The major legal consideration to have when choosing a domain name is to ensure that your domain name is not already in use by another person. This is because the Nigerian Cyber Crime Act 2015 makes it a punishable offence for anyone to intentionally register a domain name that is already been used by another.
A quick search on https://godaddy.com/ will quickly reveal if a name is available for use on the internet. However, you will still need to make sure that the name is not already registered as a business name elsewhere. A search at the CAC or other appropriate quarters will be an extra layer of protective measure for the entrepreneur.
After registering the domain name and your company, one needs to design the website and get the platform ready. The success of the venture would depend on the interface of the website and what it has to offer. Not everyone is well versed with programming/coding, hence, the project can be outsourced to freelancers or one can even hire people to do the same or can even use standard website templates from OpenCart, Magento, Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal, etc.
• Hire a professional web developer.
If you choose the first option, ensure that images, logos and design used in developing your website are not already owned by another person. Try not to just copy images, logos or designs on the internet without getting due consent from the owner. This is because there is always the potential risk of being subject of copyright-violation claim.
If you choose the second option which is to hire a web developer, you would need to sign a contract with your web developer that would spell out the intellectual property rights and obligations. It would be wise for this contract to include non-disclosure obligations as well. This is important to prevent exposure to liabilities and preventing the web developer or a third party from leveraging on insider information about your business idea obtained while developing your website.
As an e-commerce entrepreneur, a good part of your business transactions would require that your customers disclose sensitive private information about themselves over the internet. Such could include: credit card details, bank account details, names, addresses, employment status, age, marital status, family and ethnic background of an individual. Because the internet is a breeding zone for hackers who usually exploit these data to the detriment of the people that disclose them, it becomes very necessary that you protect your customers from these potential hackers.
The NITDA Draft Guideline on Data Protection and the Nigerian Cyber Crime Act, 2015 contains rules and regulations that an e-commerce outfit should follow. It is an offence to breach these rules.
It is common practice for online business owners to integrate a payment gateway on their websites through which customers pay for goods bought or services rendered online. This can be done via two methods; (1) by directly applying to be issued a merchant account or (2) by using the services of third-party provider (e.g. GTpay, Pay pal, E-transact) who is already registered as a merchant account.
Whatever method that you choose to use, it is important that you conduct your due diligence to ensure that the merchant account chosen complies with the Payment Card Industry Security Standard Council, (PCI SSC) guidelines. The PCI SSC is a widely accepted set of policies and procedures created jointly in 2004 by four major credit-card companies: including Visa and MasterCard. It is intended to optimize the security of credit, debit, and cash card transactions and protect cardholders against misuse of their private data.
Trademarks are images, logos, pictures, symbols, names, signs, designs, colors, sounds and jingles etc. which distinguish your product or service from others. With the surge in e-commerce related activities, it is now easier for one's trademark rights to be stolen or infringed upon. By registering your trademarks, you will have exclusive right of use and can institute a legal action against anybody who infringes on this right.
You should also look at trademark issues as a duty you owe other people not to infringe on their own trademarks rights.
Advertising of goods and services in Nigeria is regulated under the code of Advertising Practice and Sales Promotions Guideline of Advertising Practitioners Council of Nigeria (APCON).
• The commercial nature of the communication must not be concealed or misleading; it should be made clear in the subject header.
• There should be clarity as to the procedure for concluding the contract.
• All marketing communications sent via electronic media should include a clear and transparent mechanism enabling the consumer to opt-against receiving future solicitations.
The law on taxation in Nigeria requires that so long as you have a business in Nigeria or you derive your income from Nigeria, you would be liable to pay tax. Therefore an e-commerce business owner whose business is targeted at the Nigerian market and who derives revenues or income from such a business is liable to taxation in a manner applicable to businesses with traditional offices in Nigeria.
In conclusion, remember that ignorance is not bliss. Thus, it is important that as an e-commerce entrepreneur, you get acquainted with these legal considerations and protect your business accordingly. This is because any mistakes made and any neglect of duties owed to your customers (e.g. duty to ensure customers' data protection) can be very expensive. It may attract unnecessary legal costs to your business while undermining the longevity of your business.
In any case, while you educate yourself on these legal considerations and comply with the relevant rules and regulations that have been laid down, do not shy away from letting your customers know how you are protecting their business transactions. It is a sure way of promoting the integrity of your business, attracting and maintaining a loyal customer base.
An accounting system is essential to keep track of various transactions that the business will make with customers, suppliers, payment gateways, logistics partner, etc. It would give an idea of how much revenue the business is making, are you making any profits, what are the expenses. This information will help you to draw inferences and guide to make critical decisions for the startup venture.
This form of agreement with vendors and partners is crucial for the success of an e-commerce entity. Such an agreement should include provisions pertaining to issues like defects in product, delivery of product, remittance, late delivery, shipping etc. Such an agreement would ensure a cordial working relationship with the e-commerce entity and the vendor(s) concerned.
Delivering products on time is crucial for winning a customer's trust. So it is important to choose a courier partner that has a long range of network (home and abroad) and has a good track record to deliver assignments on time. Once there is consensus between both the parties (courier company and the e-commerce startup), it is important to sign an agreement that should include courier rates, delivery time/period and billing period. The billing period can be on a weekly/fortnight or even monthly basis depending on the startup's convenience and/or mutual agreement.
To grow the company, it is important to market the e-commerce startup and increase its brand image. As earlier mentioned, online marketing in Nigeria is growing at an exponential rate and people tend to buy online than stepping out. Potential buyers look out for better options. One can market their e-commerce portal either online or offline.
Online paid platforms like Google and Facebook can be used to market themselves. Having an active online presence on social platforms like Twitter, Google+, Facebook etc. can increase traffic on your e-commerce portal.
For offline marketing, the same can be outsourced to relevant marketing agencies that have a good reputation and can provide better marketing options that suit one's budget.

Engaging in multi-day camping often involves spending time in cold conditions. While most campers prefer opting for different types of sleeping bags for the nights, people tend to carry camping blankets for additional protection and emergencies, be it to get extra warmth around the fire, or to sit outside in open or just to have an additional layer of warmth while sleeping. So which are the best Camping blanket? Read on to find out.


You may have heard the Government's announcement earlier this month about the UK reaching a major milestone in its roll-out of superfast broadband across the UK.
The Government has ensured superfast broadband (speeds of 24Mbps or more) coverage for more than 95 per cent of UK homes and businesses, with more than 27 million homes benefiting since 2009.
And I am delighted to say that Nottinghamshire is in an even better position.
Thanks to the Better Broadband for Nottinghamshire (BBfN) programme, led by the county council in partnership with BT Openreach, 97.5 per cent of homes and businesses in our area has access to superfast broadband.
Not only is this better than the national average, it's the best in the East Midlands.
In total, BBfN has seen around £30 million invested in the county's digital infrastructure by the cuncil, Government, BT and other partners - a great example of the public and private sectors working effectively together.
This has provided access to superfast broadband for almost 80,000 homes and businesses in Nottinghamshire.
This is a great achievement, but I know it is of little consolation if you live or work in one of the properties that still does not have superfast broadband access.
Although the properties still to be covered are the most difficult to access, I want to assure you that it remains our commitment to provide superfast broadband access to everyone.

Let's call it Wednesday
Posted: September 30, 2020 by Sports Time Radio in sports
The American League playoffs kicked off yesterday with the Houston Astros, Chicago White Sox, Tampa Bay Rays and the New York Yankees all picking up wins in Game 1 of their series.
Now today not only does the National get their wild card series started, but the American League will play their Game 2's today. That means there is going to be a ton of baseball on television to watch, but how are you going to watch it all?
The games today have scheduled start times of 11:00 a.m. 12:00 p.m. 1:00 2:00 p.m. 3:00 p.m. 4:00 p.m. 6:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. Obviously there's going to be quite a bit of over run in these games and that's going to make them difficult to keep up with.
Now while I do have multiple televisions and a couple of other devices that I can stream on, but I don't have nowhere near enough screens to watch all of these games at the same time. If you have the ability to watch all of these games at the same time I'm very jealous of you.
Let me know if you're going to try and keep up with all of the games that are going to over run each other or if you just have one or maybe two games that you're going to focus on.
Humorously we had some technical difficulties yesterday while doing the Sports Time Radio podcast. We where about halfway through the podcast when I got dropped off the line and I was unable to reestablish a connection; so we only about 30 minutes into the podcast.
Now we had covered the American League games that had been played and we where getting ready to move onto the Cleveland Indians/New York Yankees match up when I dropped off. In what was a funny turn of events dropping off may have been the best thing for me.
As we where getting ready to preview Game 1 of the Indians/Yankees series I was going to talk about how I thought that Cleveland was in a good position to beat the Yankees in this short series because of there pitching. I had planned to talk about how Shane Bieber will easily win the American League Cy Young and should be able to handle the Yankees line up in Game 1. Well Bieber had what has to be his worst outing of the 2020 season. He pitched 4 2/3rd inning; he gave up 9 hits and 7 runs while walking 2 and striking out 7. When Bieber exited the game the Indians found themselves down 7-2. That's not exactly where I thought they'd be with Bieber starting, but it was another case of what do I know.
Facing Bieber was Gerrit Cole and he showed why the Yankees gave him that 9 years $324 million dollar free agent deal this past off season. Cole pitched 7 innings; he gave up 6 hits and 2 runs while striking out 13.
Bieber may have shown during the regular season that he was the dominant starting pitcher in baseball, but come playoff time Cole step up and staked the Yankees to a 1-0 lead and set them up to just have to win one of the final two games to move on to the next playoff round.
Today the Yankees will send out Masahiro Tanaka to try and get them to the next round. The Indians are countering with veteran Carlos Carrasco to try and stave off elimination.
So what do you think; do the Yankees eliminate the Indians today? While you're at it do you see the Rays, Astros or White Sox finishing off their series today?
I'd also be interested to know what surprised you about any of the Game 1's that where played yesterday. I think it's clear that I was very surprised by how easily the Yankees knocked Bieber around and cruised to a Game 1 victory. What surprised you?
While we're on baseball the Boston Red Sox have decided to make a change at manager after a disappointing season. The Red Sox where 24-36 and finished last in the AL East and while I didn't expect them to finish in last place I didn't think they where a playoff contend in any way.
Once the Red Sox lost Chris Sale and Eduardo Rodriguez for the season you knew they where in trouble. There's no team in baseball that can survive losing their top two starters and still contend.
Now you have to ask yourself; was Ron Roenicke given a fair chance to manage the Red Sox properly or was this the plan all along. I know you're wondering what plan. Well remember Alex Cora was let go by the Red Sox before the 2020 season for his part in their cheating scandal. Now only was Cora fired by the Red Sox, but he was suspended for one year by Major League Baseball. Well that year is now over and the Red Sox need a manager. I fully expect for the Red Sox to name Cora as their manager again and Roenicke will go back into his role as bench coach. So basically Boston is making a mockery out of Rob Manfred and baseballs rulings.
Don't forget to listen to the Sports Time Radio podcast lie on BlogTalkRadio.com, but if you miss the live edition of the podcast just head on over to TuneIn.com and you can listen any time you want to.
I'm also on Twitter if you want to look me up. I'm @Burketime
Stewart Silverman says:
If any series ended today, it would be the Tampa-Toronto matchup. I have a feeling that all the others will wind up being 2/3.
Why is Hendricks starting today over Darvish?

The Atari Falcon was Atari Corporation's final computer product, more specifically named the Atari Falcon030 Computer System. Codenamed Sparrow, the machine was based on a Motorola 68030 main CPU, and had a Motorola 56000 digital signal processor (the latter distinguishing it from most other microcomputers of the era)
The Falcon was released in late 1992 and subsequently cancelled in late 1993 as Atari Corp. restructured itself to focus completely on the release and support of its newest product, the Atari Jaguar video game console. The use of the 1040ST case was due to haste and low cost, the planned "microbox" case that was more like the Mega STe or TT030 case wasn't ready yet and Atari Corp. had decided to exit the computer business.
The Atari Falcon030 had many powerful features but its performance was not as great as it could have been, mostly due to Atari Corp.'s decision to put the 32-bit 68030 microprocessor on a 16-bit data bus. This was in order to maintain close compatibility with the Atari STE.
The machine had a few impressive games developed though, like 'Aazohm Krypht' which was a fighting game in the vein of Mortal Kombat that featured digitized actors and photographic backgrounds in a 256 color mode, and 'Running' a 3D FPS like Quake featuring VGA 256 colors on screen and smooth framerate.

Atari TT030 was a new machine based on the Motorola 68030 processor running at 32 MHz with advanced graphic capabilities compared to the STE series.
NOTE that, it cannot compare to the superior Atari Falcon series in terms of graphics and sound capabilities, but it is included here (same category) because of it s superior CPU, higher screen resolutions and 256 on-screen colors feature compared to the ST/STE series.
The ATARI TT030 was capable of high screen resolutions with better colour palettes and addressing more memory, with optional onboard hard drive (slotting onto the base as a second, smaller box). Popular with CAD and DTP communities of the time for its sheer graphical capability (its high resolution only recently having become a common size on modern PCs) and processing speed
