Finally: Las Vegas officially gets 40 millionth annual visitor
Tag Casino Las Vegas
For the past two years, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority has said that it would attract a record-breaking 40 million tourists to Southern Nevada, toppling a record that has stood since 2012.
Everybody thought it would occur last year, but the total fell short of the 39.7 million recorded the year before.
This year, every monthly visitor volume total pointed toward the possibility of shattering the record.
And now, the agency that markets Las Vegas to the world says it has happened.
Forty million. With two weeks left on the calendar and the outlook favorable for a robust New Year's Eve holiday, experts are suggesting the visitation pace could end up with a total closer to 41 million.
"Las Vegas couldn't have reached this milestone without the continued investments of our resort partners and the more than 40 million people who came to experience all the destination has to offer," Rossi Ralenkotter, president and CEO of the authority, said in a statement.

Q: Highcharts - column chart redraw animation I'm trying to update an existing data series with a new data array and invoke the redraw function when done. While this works perfectly, I'm not quite satisfied as I'd like to have a sort of grow/shrink transition. I have seen an example by Highcharts (fiddle around with the existing data set then click on the button "Set new data to selected series") but I can't replicate this behavior.
This is what code that I've written:
  var series, newSeriesThreshold = this.chart.series.length * 2;

  for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i += 2) {
    series = {
      name:  this.data[i].title,
      data:  this.data[i].data,
      color: this.data[i].color
    };

    if (i >= newSeriesThreshold) {
      this.chart.addSeries(series, false);
    } else {
      var currentSeries = this.chart.series[i / 2];
      currentSeries.setData(series.data, false);
    }
  }

  this.chart.redraw();

These are the options when creating the chart:
  var config = {
    chart: {
      renderTo: $(this.container).attr('id'),
      type: this.settings.type,
      animation: {
        duration: 500,
        easing: 'swing'
      }
    },
    title: {
      text: null
    },
    legend: {
      enabled: this.settings.legend.show
    },
    tooltip: {
      formatter: function() {
        return this.x.toFixed(0) + ": <b>" + this.y.toString().toCurrency(0) + '</b>';
      }
    },
    xAxis: {
      title: {
        text: this.settings.xaxis.title,
        style: {
          color: '#666'
        }
      }
    },
    yAxis: {
      title: {
        text: this.settings.yaxis.title,
        style: {
          color: '#666'
        }
      }
    },
    series: series,
    plotOptions: {
      column: {
        color: '#FF7400'
      }
    },
    credits: {
      enabled: false
    }
  };

This yields an immediate update without transitioning effects. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

A: I have solved this problem by destroying and creating again the chart.
Here is the link on highcharts forum that helps me : http://forum.highcharts.com/highcharts-usage/animation-on-redraw-t8636/#p93199
The answer comes from the highcharts support team.
    $(document).ready(function() {
            var chartOptions = {
                    // Your chart options
                    series: [
                             {name: 'Serie 1' , color: '#303AFF', data: [1,1,1,1,1,1,1}
                            ]
                };

            var chart = new Highcharts.Chart(chartOptions);

        $("#my_button").click(function(){
            chart.destroy();
            chartOptions.series[0].data = [10,5,2,10,5,2,10];
            chart = new Highcharts.Chart(chartOptions);
        });
    });

A: This remain a mystery. I managed to make the axis update which suggests that there is some kind of animation going on, but it's applied only to the axis, and not the columns.
In the end, I've settled with this behavior.

A: This might help:
var mychart = $("#mychart").highcharts();
var height = mychart.renderTo.clientHeight;
var width = mychart.renderTo.clientWidth;
mychart.setSize(width, height);

to update all charts
$(Highcharts.charts).each(function(i,chart){
    var height = chart.renderTo.clientHeight;
    var width = chart.renderTo.clientWidth;
    chart.setSize(width, height);
  });

The Pedestrian Safety Initiative in Reno, Nevada, is focused on reducing the number of crashes attributed to unsafe pedestrians, unsafe drivers and DUI drivers. According to one sergeant with the Reno Police Department, "The common misconception: The pedestrian always has the right of way and that's not true."
There are a couple of areas in Reno that are considered very dangerous for pedestrians. The sergeant said, "Over here, it's really dark and pedestrians try to cross the street and it's too dark for drivers to see them."
Another is the Fourth Street corridor and the other is near the bus stop, right off of Evans Street. Some of the people contacted by the police were not very pleasant. That's often a common response, but officers know that arguing with residents is not going to change anything.
The police are out in force, trying to teach both pedestrians and drivers who aren't following the law. When they are able to prevent accidents, everyone benefits.
If you have been injured in a pedestrian accident, do you know if you or the driver of the motor vehicle was at fault. For example, did you cross at an intersection where there is a crosswalk? If not, did you enter the roadway from between two vehicles. Pedestrians don't stand much of a chance when up against a motor vehicle in an accident. Such crashes often lead to serious injuries or deaths. Police want to make sure those who are out int the community are safe from this type of harm.
An accident attorney can help you determine whether you want to file lawsuit against the at-fault owner.

With its picture-perfect beaches and imposing mountainous backdrop, Mahé makes for a suitably dramatic introduction to the Seychelles.
The largest island in the archipelago, Mahé is home to the capital, Victoria, and almost 90 per cent of the Seychelles' population. A Mahé holiday is often the starting point for island-hopping in the region, but the tranquil nature reserves, sublime beaches and sheltered coves here amply reward those who choose to stay a while and explore.
First settled by the French, before it became a British colony, Mahé is rich in history but also something of a living laboratory. A wealth of rare endemic flora has evolved here over centuries of isolation, including the endangered jellyfish tree and the carnivorous Seychelles pitcher plant.

The Stories of Marin Academy and its Community
Filed under City
Embrace Your Community
Harper Korol and Liza Kinney|April 25, 2019
On a regular day, everyone either drives, walks, bikes, takes the bus or carpools to our lovely MA campus. However, sometimes during this transition from one's home to school, a lot can be missed. When battling with exhaustion and feeling drowsy on an early morning commute, the wondrous things the city of San Rafael offers can be easily glossed over.
Although you might see the common Johnny's Doughnuts, Cafe Del Sol or even Sol Food you might miss the fact that there are about five different nail salons within two hundred feet of each other, and even Pleasures of The Heart, a unique sex shop on 4th Street. Who knew that San Rafael would have all you need? Or be so diverse?
Since 1980, The Ritter Center has worked to prevent homelessness in San Rafael by providing food, therapists and a clinic during the week with the goal of stabilizing the lives of many people struggling with mental illness, disability or a combination of events that have caused them to spiral into homelessness.
A major part of San Rafael that most people don't notice is marginalized populations, specifically people who seek shelter and assistance at both the Ritter Center and St. Vincent De Paul. These two organizations provide a small example of the support for the homeless population in the city and work to make visible to something that is invisible to a majority of our community: "Many people come to the ritter center to get back on track and have a place that they can return to for food and supplies. We have given food to about 300 to 340 people per week."
As the Director of Community Action at MA, James Hughes has a huge responsibility to choose issues in outside communities to raise awareness and provide support for: "It really has to do with all the different partnerships we have in the community. So we developed a variety of different partnerships, particularly around in the different community and social concerns. Largely much of that is ideally driven by the students and the faculty interests and that's why it kind of evolved year to year."
In the MA community, as Hughes mentioned, most of the focused work done by different student-led clubs are all decided on by the student's interests. It has become apparent that the awareness of our community is slightly less than expected, considering the location of MA due to the lack of interest and knowledge the students have on this specific topic.
Although the community action club does not specifically take steps to address the issues of homelessness in San Rafael, it is incorporated within the curriculum. Hughes says confidently, "I think it's important to create an awareness of the issue of homelessness and create a sense that these are people, and put a face to the individuals, to the people that we are talking about." It's easy to go about our everyday lives being unaware of issues when we don't step back and think about them. Opportunities to engage and be aware of your surroundings are offered during end of year projects, but what people don't realize is that there are multiple chances to reach out and raise your awareness yourself.
Taylor Tan, an MA alum and a current math teacher, has not only witnessed the situation surrounding homelessness as a teacher but also when he was a student at MA from 2002 to 2006.
Living in San Anselmo, Berkeley and currently in Marin City in Sausalito, Tan has a unique perspective on this situation which has enhanced his involvement and awareness of the issues surrounding homelessness; "those three places are pretty illustrative of the various types of homeless issues that are faced in the bay area." In his opinion, the location and access to transportation have a huge influence on the homeless population.
In San Anselmo, "There are both fewer economic opportunities for homeless people to make money and find food and find places to live there. And the public transit to and from San Anselmo is incredibly poor. So I think that's part of the reason why San Rafael has a larger homeless population, is because transit to get elsewhere is easier to access from there." The societal norms in these different cities have a large impact on the levels of homelessness.
From experience, Tan describes Berkeley, "as a city [that] is known for supporting its homeless populations." Along with the idea that "there are a lot of sort of social pressures in Berkeley to help support the homeless population there. And as a result, it draws people who are sometimes not even really homeless by choice."
Tan's comparison of the homeless population from 2002-2006 in San Rafael to present day gives us an idea of the shift that has occurred throughout recent years; "I feel like when I was a student here that there was a smaller homeless population in San Rafael, but they were possibly slightly more visible and recognizable."
Although homelessness was less of an apparent issue during his years of high school, Tan still found himself becoming aware and involved, "There was actually one that I knew personally. He became homeless while I was in high school. He worked at a diamond sports cards on Fourth Street for a while. And at some point, he had a psychotic break and wound up homeless. And I would see him like hanging out around and buy him a cup of coffee because we had had a relationship before he became homeless." Tan's personal experience with a person struggling with homelessness allowed him, even in high school, to understand the reality of why people become homeless and how easy it is to lose everything in such a short period of time.
"I think like the majority of our students when presented with an opportunity to interact with somebody like during lunch or whatever, if they go off campus, don't necessarily take advantage of that opportunity to engage positively with the homeless commission." At a young age, it can be hard to muster the confidence to engage with a stranger, however, due to the divide between our communities, most of the time students will separate themselves from those types of situations.
As a Marin Academy student, it might seem as though there are limited ways to support the homeless community and have a real impact. Andrew Henning, Director of Homelessness Planning and Outreach in the San Rafael City Hall, points out easy ways for students in Marin to get involved and show compassion for people who experience homelessness: "There are definitely like kind of direct projects that students can be involved with, like the purple meters."
The purple parking meters scattered throughout San Rafael are specifically used to support the homeless community and are a great and easy way for people to get involved and show their compassion for others.
Henning also describes a situation that happened recently that shows students are able to make extreme impacts on decisions made: "This group of five high schoolers from Terra Linda came and gave this amazing presentation about climate change and how this is basically like the moral responsibility of the city council to set the example in the community and you know, like hundred percent renewable energy. And I've rarely seen this, but the council literally from their presentation changed their mind and went a hundred percent renewable." It is examples like this that provide a structure of what students at Marin Academy and beyond can do in order to better their community as a whole.
Having more voices such as those can create further change and new sources of ideas and prepositions for the next steps the city council, as well as the entire county, can take to help with the issue. Being in charge of the issue and figuring out all of the different ways in which to provide housing and assistance to the people in need, Henning describes the three biggest steps for the council to take on next.
Describing the steps Andrew touches on coordinated entry, "[the] strategy that I've been describing of like better training people and coordinate which people should go where. So it's called coordinated entry. And so that's really been number one for a while. I'm really prioritizing chronic homelessness, which is long term homelessness using coordinated entry. The idea is that, you know, there are a lot of bigger causes of homelessness. But, if you can catch people faster than they're becoming homeless, then you can basically end homelessness."
He proceeds with step two, "I would say just trying to create more housing. I mean, that's a big one. Definitely more affordable housing" and the final step for the council is to target the housing areas of the city.
"Number three for me in the city is, renter protections. So about 48 percent of the people that live in San Rafael rent versus owning their home, so with rising prices, you know, that's one of the biggest causes of homelessness is just the cost of housing. So we've been trying to do more to see if we can protect people from losing their rentals." With these powerful next steps that the council is trying to achieve, creating more awareness of the issue around our campus could initiate faster change within the community.
Along with the city council advocating for the homeless individuals or families within the streets of San Rafael, Jesse Taylor-Vermont, the project manager of the Downtown Streets Team organization is also finding new ways in which to reach out to the community and people in need. From a survey that Downtown Streets Team provided to the homeless individuals who were working with the program to better their lives along with themselves, they came to some unexpected responses, "the number one answer that people respond to with was something we hadn't predicted, which was the way people look down on [them]. And it's from that, that we are trying to change this perception that homelessness is not an identity, it's an experience.
The Downtown Streets Team office located in central San Rafael supports the homeless community by assisting with finding housing and jobs to getting people back on their feet.
Overcoming this concept and becoming more accepting of all kinds of people within San Rafael will slowly bring the two communities closer together. "if a community could embrace that, then we would start to see some changes. but it all starts with, you know, seeing every person with the same respect, the housed and unhoused, with the same dignity that you would give others."
Dismantling the barrier between these individuals and being more open to volunteering and being more aware of what is happening can lead to a stronger, more united community that our campus is a part of.
So the next time you are on your way to school, whichever way it may be, pick your head up and just observe. Observe the shops, the food and most importantly the people that our Marin Academy community is surrounded by and the reason it is so special.

Spring is here. I'm going to follow through on a long-planned project. OK, it's not a project, but it does save me lots of Cost Of Goods Sold.
We murder lots of blankets....hundreds of them. Every now and then, a customer would offer up their favorite colored, striped, or plaid bed cover for us to build their shirt or pullover. <Flash> The lightbulb turned on. OK, my wife got the idea. I begrudgingly accepted it. Offer a set time each Spring to build custom shirts with nice blankets (and not have to burn through your own).
That time is fast approaching. We'll have details, pricing, sizing, etc. available on our website and via download in late March. If you're interested, feel free to check in. Here's a little priming shot.
FYI, We can covert just about ANY blanket now that this monster is coming. It's a Pegasus 3216 5x5, a walking foot serger. Yup, 3/4" throw on the upper arm, heavy feed, laser eyeballs, etc.
Perhaps I should order up some 16 oz. Gunn Tartan and have a shirt to match my Kilt !
So you're a Gunn. I used to work with a Gunn, back in the UK, he put me on to drinking Old Pultney single malt.
....I've got a little trouble converting tartan. Something in me feels it should be reserved for other things.
What are your sporrans made from?
Road kill. No lie. Theses were two fox from a freezer. I learned a lot converting them.
Making the sporrans looks like fun project.
My Sporran was custom from L&M Highland in Nova Scotia - but just a simple black rabbit dress not a full mask.
Agree Kevin - tartan and the Prince Charlie looks mighty smart. But for casual a Jacobite or Ghillie shirt looks good if you go with a leather sporran.
You need to whip up some sashes for the ladies in matching tartan. I was going to post a link to the Kiltmaker I had make them but he doesn't show the image online anymore. Not suggesting you wouldn't do it yourself - but for others visual benefit. Did you order your material from Lochcarron?
I have a vintage Argyle & Sutherland swinging six, if anyone is interested. Fair condition, it's the plain one, not the Badger Face.
Perhaps we need a kilt section to the forum.
Anyone on xmarksthescot other than Kevin and I ?
I've never understood why you buy blankets Kevin.
Wouldn't it be much cheaper to buy blanketing by the roll a 100 metres at a time?
Sorry - I was a Cameron and i don't miss the horsehair. I hated how it curled if you forgot to hang it up promptly. Nice item to have - family or collector? CDN or UK?
Blanket material by the roll is hard to come by, unless you order a full run. I've chanced upon one roll waaay back. It was great.
We operate in the black. I intend to stay there.

What You Need to Know About the Chicago Blackhawks Abuse Report
The full report outlining the investigation into allegations against former Chicago Blackhawks video coach, Brad Aldrich, has been released, leading to seismic changes within the team's front office and beyond. Here's a breakdown of what you need to know.
Mike Stephens
The full report outlining the investigation into allegations against former Chicago Blackhawks video coach, Brad Aldrich, has been released, leading to seismic changes within the team's front office and beyond.
Stan Bowman is out as General Manager and President of Hockey Operations. Al MacIsaac is out as Vice President of Hockey Operations. The NHL announced that they have fined the Blackhawks $2 million for its "inadequate procedures and mishandling". Blackhawks owner and Chairman, Rocky Wirtz announced that anyone involved in this incident back in 2010 will no longer be involved with the organization moving forward.
And the ripple effect has only just begun.
According to the report, which was conducted by the law firm Jenner & Block, a contingent of the Blackhawks' senior leadership trust met on May 23rd, 2010 to discuss the accusations that Brad Aldrich had sexually assaulted a Blackhawks player, prior to the team's Western Conference Final game against the San Jose Sharks.
(A warning: the report is disturbing. You can read the full 107-page report here).
In attendance at this meeting were Bowman and McIsaac, along with president and CEO John McDonough, coach Joel Quenneville, assistant GM Kevin Chevaldayoff, and executive vice president Jay Blunk.
Quenneville and Chevaldayoff are the only members of that group to still hold senior positions with NHL teams following Bowman's resignation today. Quenneville is currently coach of the Florida Panthers, and Cheveldayoff is GM of the Winnipeg Jets.
All three had publicly denied having knowledge of these accusations at the time. The Panthers told TheHockeyNews.com that "Commissioner Gary Bettman has indicated that he will be meeting with Joel Quenneville to discuss the events highlighted in the Jenner & Block October 2021 report. Accordingly, we have no comment."
In an official statement issued on July 13th, 2021, Quenneville said, "The allegations in this lawsuit are clearly serious. I first learned of these allegations through the media earlier this summer."
He was at the meeting. That was a lie.
In an official statement issued on July 22, 2021, Chevaldayoff said, "I had no knowledge of any allegations involving Mr. Aldrich until asked if I was aware of anything just prior to the conclusion of his employment with the Chicago Blackhawks."
He, too, was at the meeting. And that, too, was a lie.
According to the report, when Quenneville was made aware of the allegations against Aldrich, his response was that the team had worked hard to get this far in the postseason and that they "could not handle this right now".
Additionally, the report states that the Blackhawks director of human resources at the time revealed that McDonough, then-president and CEO of the Blackhawks, told her that the group that met on May 23 concluded they would not alert human resources or outside legal counsel so as to not "disturb team chemistry".
That same meeting, as previously stated, was attended by Quenneville and Chevaldayoff, both of whom went on public record to deny being aware of the allegations against Aldrich.
The Blackhawks would go on to win the Stanley Cup shortly thereafter.
On June 16th, 2010, days after the Blackhawks Stanley Cup victory, the organization's Head of Human Resources, and outside counsel for the team met with Aldrich to inform him of the allegations made against him.
Aldrich was presented with two options: resign, or take a leave of absence while the organization launched a full internal investigation.
Aldrich chose to resign, therefore signing a separation agreement. He was paid $20,622 in severance, along with a $15,000 playoff bonus.
As outlined by the separation agreement, Aldrich was thereby prohibited from making any contact with Blackhawks players, employees, or personnel. Yet, as is evidenced in photos and multiple witness statements, Aldrich continued to participate in the Blackhawks' Stanley Cup celebrations, including being present at the parade, which put him in close proximity to John Doe.
In that same meeting with the Blackhawks head of HR, Aldrich then asked if he could still have his "day with the Cup". That request was granted by the HR head, and Aldrich was allowed to take the Stanley Cup to his hometown of Houghton, Michigan.
Two team employees were assigned to accompany Aldrich on his day with the Cup. One of them had previously alleged that Aldrich had "come on" to him outside of his apartment complex before "grabbing his crotch". According to the report, multiple team employees were aware of these allegations.
Despite the stipulations of his separation agreement, Aldrich still attended the Blackhawks' banner raising ceremony on October 9th, 2010. Following the game, Aldrich was then handed his Stanley Cup ring personally by MacIsaac, clearly violating the agreement.
What this report does is paint a horrifying picture of cover-ups and indifference by the Blackhawks organization when presented with multiple instances of corroborated sexual assault accusations against by their own employee.
While Aldrich was ultimately let go from the Blackhawks organization, he was still allowed to partake in all of the celebratory privileges that came with the team's Stanley Cup victory, clearly violating legally binding documents that were designed to keep him away from the very people he hurt, all under the watchful guise of senior leadership.
And now that the report has been published, the real shockwaves have only just begun.

Honey Badgers Don't Care Because They're Ferocious
A honey badger (Mellivora capensis), carrying a young pup in her mouth at Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park in South Africa.	Derek Keats/Flickr (CC By 2.0)
Unless you were living in an internet-less cave in 2011, you've probably heard of the honey badger (Mellivora capensis). That year, the YouTube video below went viral — it's now been viewed over 91 million times, which is a lot for something that isn't a Justin Bieber music video — and its refrain, "honey badger don't care," became the mantra of millions for a while. [Note: Video contains some language that may not be suitable for young or sensitive viewers.] This collage of National Geographic footage showing honey badgers eating snakes, running backwards and chasing jackals, dubbed over by expletive-laden narration, is so entertaining, Taylor Swift has admitted to being able to recite the entire video by heart.
And although the honey badger has established a lasting place in internet culture because of this three-minute comedy bit, its celebrity makes us think we know more about this strange, solitary animal than we actually do. The truth is, honey badgers aren't well understood because they're extremely difficult to study.
They're Nocturnal Foragers
"How honey badgers became famous in America is incredible," says Derek van der Merwe with the Endangered Wildlife Trust in South Africa. "We get so many calls from Americans wanting to come to film them because of the famous YouTube clip. They don't realize how difficult it is to film a honey badger because they're very intelligent, a lot of them forage at night, and they have extremely big home ranges — some of them up to 500 square kilometers [310 square miles]."
Honey badgers, or ratel, as they're often called in some parts of Africa (a word that might be derived from raat, the Dutch word for honeycomb), are more closely related to a weasel than a European badger, and they actually don't eat honey, though their weakness for beehives often gets them in trouble with humans. They live in a wide range of habitats, from forests to deserts, but mostly hang out in dry area in Africa, the Southwest Asia and India.
"World's Most Fearless Creature"
Honey badgers have become synonymous with unhinged aggression and ferocity — Guinness World Records has named them "World's Most Fearless Creature" — and particularly tenacious professional athletes sometimes earn "honey badger" as a nickname. They have a reputation for being nearly indestructible, but the truth is, they're short (about 11 inches [28 centimeters] at shoulder height) and not very fast, so they're sometimes attacked and killed by bigger predators. But for a honey badger, the best form of defense is attack.
"Their thick skin is loose — so loose, in fact, that they can almost turn around completely within it," says van der Merwe. "If an animal bites the honey badger on the back, it can turn right around and bite the animal right back. They have long claws on their front feet that they use for digging, but which they use for fighting as well. Inexperienced predators — a young leopard, lion, or hyena, for instance — might try to attack a honey badger once, but they'll never try it again after the first time."
Honey Badgers and Snake Venom
Honey badgers often tangle with venomous snakes, but one misconception is that are naturally immune to venom. While it's true they eat a lot of venomous animals, their immunity needs to be developed over time. How honey badgers acquire this immunity is not well studied or understood, but mother honey badgers spend a long time raising each pup (14-18 months), and as the baby grows, its mom slowly introduces it to venomous animals, starting with the mildest scorpion and moving up the venom ladder until the youngster is eating cobras and puff adders.
Another thing we get wrong about honey badgers is that we think they're like skunks — that they spray a strong, unpleasant-smelling liquid at their attackers to gross them out (and away). It's true they store a revolting-smelling substance in their anal pouch, and they occasionally release it when they're in a life-threatening situation, but they don't weaponize it in the way skunks do.
"Often, when we find dead honey badgers, they've been stung to death by bees and have released this substance — it smells absolutely terrible," says van der Merwe. "It's not something you ever want to get on yourself because you will never get it off."
Honey Badgers and Bees
Honey badgers can't get enough of beehives, even though ransacking them is a potentially deadly hobby for a variety of reasons. When honey badgers were first described in South Africa, they were often found in bees nests, apparently feeding on honey (hence, the common name), but it turns out they were really interested in the bee brood — the nutritious larvae found in honey comb.
"In South Africa, the honey badger was listed as near threatened in the early 2000s," says van der Merwe. "Beekeepers were killing them because they were causing hundreds of thousands [of dollars] worth of damage to the beekeeping industry, breaking into hives. Not only do they destroy the hive itself, the beekeeper loses honey and the swarm of bees — it's actually quite a lot of money. Some badgers just learned to just live off sacking bee hives, and they were being persecuted for it."
But over the past two decades, the relationship between badger and human has gotten better:
"What we did in South Africa is start raising the hives off the ground by 1.1 meters [3.6 feet], or strapping them together or to tires on the ground. This prevents the honey badgers rolling the hives, which is how they access them," says van der Merwe. "In the early 2000s, half the beekeepers we surveyed admitted to deliberately killing honey badgers because they were costing them so much money. Since we've come up with these methods for preventing the badgers from accessing the hives, beekeepers are no longer killing them, and we've noticed an increase in numbers and in range in some areas. They've since been downgraded to a species of least concern."
Which is great news, because even though they've got terrible personalities, honey badgers are good for ecosystems they live in. Because they're not as fast as other predators, they'll dig rodents out of burrows, providing food for birds of prey and jackals, which often follow a honey badger around, waiting to catch the honey badger's prey.
It's okay, though — the honey badger don't care.

According to van der Merwe, honey badgers have never been observed mating, but one male honey badger will usually mate with about 10 females within his home range until he's kicked out by another male.

October Films! "The Devil's Candy"
October 11, 2017 by Bill Lynch
I've got a bit of a backlog of movies to report on. There's been some time to watch spooky stuff, but not much time to write about it.
"The Devil's Candy" is a film that has come up a couple of times on Facebook. A few of my Facebook pals have spoken highly of it. So, sure, I decided to give it a try.
Released in 2015, the film stars Ethan Embry, an actor I remember from the 90s films "Can't Hardly Wait," "That Thing You Do," and "Empire Records."
He was also in "Dutch."
I remember him as kind of a wide-eyed, sort of goofy, but generally likeable character actor, but I lost track of him somewhere around 2000, where he moved on to more serious stuff.
With the stringy blond hair, ragged beard and tattoos, Embry is barely recognizable as the approaching middle-age metal-head father and painter, Jesse Hellman, in "The Devil's Candy," though his character has some of the same earnestness that you see in his earlier work.
The story revolves around Jesse, his wife and daughter moving into an old house with a bad history. The previous owners died –apparently by accident, everyone in the film believes (though we know different).
It's a nice house and "Gee, wouldn't it be a shame to let the place go to waste just because of a couple of dead people?"
This all seems like stupid horror film logic, but then again, I've been through the whole home buying process. When you're looking for some place half decent that's in your budget, you're willing to put up with a lot.
I'd be OK with some dead people just to have some better windows. Cultists could definitely have tried to call up C'thulhu at some point, if it would have knocked a hundred bucks a month off my mortgage.
It beats renting.
Boiled down, the thread of "Hard Candy" follows bad things are happening, a reluctant serial killer serves the devil, loiters around the family home, which used to belong to his parents.
The cops know about the serial killer, of course, but seem to figure that it was just a phase, something he did when he was a kid, but he's fine now, except for creeping everyone out.
Then things get worse. People die. There is some teen angst and Mom isn't a huge fan of heavy metal music for some reason, though she's married to a guy who looks he's a roadie for Slayer.
How does that even happen?
"The Devil's Candy" is fun, but it is also a mess. There's a vein of demon possession or demonic influence that may be connected to the house, to Pruitt Taylor Vince's tortured serial killer character or even to Jesse, but then there's the issue with the painting Embry's character is working on.
Is it prophesy, a warning, a love letter from hell?
Who can say? Maybe all three. Maybe something else.
And what's the deal with the art dealer (played by an uncredited F. Murray Abraham) named Belial, who shows up to maybe tempt Jesse?
Thanks to a good long time spent playing "Dungeons and Dragons," I know the name Belial belongs to a Duke of Hell. So all the hours spent reading the "Monster Manual II" during high school weren't wasted.
Abraham is there, he pours a couple of drinks, and splits without accomplishing a lot, except maybe saying again that the devil is involved with Jesse on a very personal level.
It has to be the name, Jesse Hellman. He's Hell's man, get it?
Anyway, the ending almost feels like something out of a Kirk Cameron film. I wasn't satisfied with it and felt like it was a cop out.
As I said, "The Devil's Candy" is fun, but not particularly smart. The acting is good, even if the story could have used some fine tuning.
You can find "The Devil's Candy" on Netflix.

Subterfuge [official site] isn't a PC game, but it looks like one, plays like one, and is heavily inspired by one. I've just finished my first game of it, and I think it's better than Neptune's Pride for a number of reasons. Not least of which is that it's an experience I had which ended up guilt-free.

Neptune's Pride 2 is the most exciting game I'm never going to play. The sequel to the space strategy backstab-'em-up has just been updated with a set of features that sound like it'll be more pleasant to be miserable than ever before.

Neptune's Pride is a slow-form multiplayer strategy game. We got together with our friends from PC Gamer to play. Weeks of bloodthirst, treachery and violence on a galactic scale later, we stopped. Then took a few weeks to recover. And then we wrote about it. The results follow. They say more about the players than anyone would like to admit.

DiBella was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2020 after decades of being one of the most influential figures in boxing, including being the driving force of HBO's boxing coverage for 11 years as the network's Senior Vice President in Charge of Programming.
In the role, DiBella was the man behind the widely acclaimed Boxing After Dark series before going on to launch DiBella Entertainment and becoming one of boxing's most important promoters, guiding the careers of a hugely impressive list of world champions, which includes Bernard Hopkins, Sergio Martinez and Jermain Taylor.
Probellum was founded in September 2021 and has become the fastest-growing brand in the sport, making its intentions clear with a raft of top-level fighter signings including Nonito Donaire, Regis Prograis, Estelle Mossely and Donnie Nietes and multiple co-promotional deals across the globe.

It was recently reported the new Audi A1 would be skipping the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show but a new report reveals the Audi A1 will be back on for the show. The concept is a three door, two seater designed as a premium product with a hybrid powertrain rather than a cheap and cheerful city car.
Audis take on the Mini will finally kick off production in October. Head of Audis Brussels plant Alfons Dintner confirmed production will being after a five week shutdown August. The three door will be the first to arrive in showrooms followed by the five door sportback.
Combined with stop/start technology, Audi claims a cut in fuel consumption of 15%, so this car does 57.7mpg and produces just 112g/km of CO2. Audi claim a 0-62mph time in 7.8secs and a top speed of 126mph. At low speeds the car can be powered solely by the electric power. The lithium-ion battery provides a 62-mile range when it runs on pure electric power, and can recharge from any power socket.

Listen Out Announces A VERY Sweet Lineup
This morning, the lineup for the 2018 edition of electro/ pop / hip hop music festival Listen Out was announced, and holy shit it's very good. Boasting headliners A$AP Rocky, Skepta and the godfather of all that wubwubwub music the kids love these days, Skrillex.
Another thing that people are majorly excited for, is the fact that this year's festival also sees the first ever Australian visit from major buzz act, hip hop collective known as Brockhampton. After dropping three albums in 2017 alone as a part of their Saturation series, which saw track Sweet come in at #11 on triple j's Hottest 100. the Californian outfit is set for release in June this year.
The festival is no stranger to hosting big names though, after pretty-well being forced to step up to the plate to fill the gaping demand for a premier electronic-based music festival after the deaths of Future Music Festival (2006-2015) and Stereosonic (2008-2015). R.I.P.
But Listen Out has well and truly taken over and does not show any signs of slowing down any time soon, having previously hosted huge names such as Flume, Childish Gambino, Travis Scott, Disclosure, A$AP Ferg, Azealia Banks, Chet Faker, RUFUS and yeah, the list goes on.
As for 2018 though, those four headliners mentioned up the top are just the tip of the iceberg. Other highlights include Confidence Man, Haiku Hands, KLLO, Polo Shirt (Polographia x Winston Surfshirt), Snakehips and many more. You can view the whole lineup below.

Singer Yung Mulo has been off the scene for sometime now; and no, he did not quit singing, he just hasn't been lucky to get another hit. But even then, Mulo has come out to prove that a struggling man has the right to judge those at the top of their game at the moment.
Mulo resurrected on NTV's The Beat show last Tuesday and he was all full of himself, as he argued that he was still the best dance hall musician in Uganda, before he went on to trash all fellow singers in the same genre.
Mulo, without fear or shame, dragged the likes of Peter Miles, Ziza Bafana and Sizzaman to his level.
And he was not done yet; in what many viewers shall agree was a clear display of immaturity, Mulo went on to brag about being the grandfather of reggae- just because he has a new reggae song! Yes, you guessed right- Douglas was left in stitches!
To prove he knew what he was talking about, Mulo said he enjoys A Pass' Would You Give Me a Kiss song, "but I don't like the singer (A Pass), because I think he is not talented," Mulo wound up.
That was it; Mulo had clearly punched way above his weight! A few minutes later, Douglas asked Mulo to say his goodbyes and off he was!

Around this time every year, parents of school-age children start plotting -- they begin to dream up the ways they can reclaim their home from the kids as they go back to school. Summer gives us much needed quality family time, but it also gives way to a house in disarray.
But now, the time has come! The kids are in school, and it's the perfect time to give your house a refresh. Here's how some of our favorite interior designers in Chicago and Atlanta make it happen.
Our house has non-stop traffic in the summertime! With that comes dirty feet, sticky fingers, and sandy clothes. When the kids go back to school, I find that our house needs to be scoured to feel like a home again. This is a three-step process for us. The first area I target is the upholstery and carpets. It is so worth it to have a company come in and professionally clean all of it to get rid of all the sand, grime, and sticky messes that have been left behind. Once they are done, make sure you fluff all the pillows on the sofas and chairs and rotate them. Voila! Your furnishings will look and feel new again. The second step is getting a clean Magic Eraser and hitting all the walls and baseboards. Those fingerprints and scuff marks will come off with little effort. If you want to go that extra mile, you can grab the old paint and touch up all the dings and dents. Lastly, I stage an old toy and clothes purge where we donate all the items we are not going to use anymore. You will be amazed at how much more space you gain back! If all else fails and you do not have time to get all of this done, bring in some fresh flowers. They always make me smile, and I feel so much better about my space when they are around.
As a mom of two kids I have "been there" with the back to school process. It is a wonderful time to take your home back! With the kids out of the house, take time to declutter. I always clean out closets and toy bins to gather things to give away. It is surprising how much kids can accumulate over a summer. Once things are decluttered, you can actually see your house in a new light and determine what is needed for that overdue "big boy/girl room" or other design project you are putting off. Paint touch ups are always needed after a summer at home. Go through and touch up dings, scuffs and all other nicks that inevitably happen when the family spends a lot of time indoors. Lastly, use this time to focus on yourself. Maybe it's time to make your master bedroom a true haven or to create an ideal work space for yourself!
Although only one of my three boys is in school all day this year, a secret operation to purge and organize the toys will begin soon! With the help of one of my favorite cabinet makers, we will create the fireplace built-in of my dreams that will double as toy storage. When you live in an apartment, you have to get creative with storage, and there is no better way than custom cabinetry. Superman, Spiderman, Batman, and all of their superhero friends will soon be together in an organized fashion. Hopefully this holiday season I can host an adult gathering in a sophisticated atmosphere!
My back-to-school ritual is as follows: hire the organizer, throw out old sports jerseys and all clothing that no longer fits, hire the painter to touch up my son's wall surfaces, and organize storage areas so there is enough room for all of those papers and projects that invade the house during the school year. I also always make sure that his school supplies match the decor of his room. I just bought some amazing bright yellow desk accessories that match his vintage metal desk exactly!
Though initially a welcomed change of glorious fun and relaxation, Summer transforms your house into beach bags peppered about the hallways, toys strewn about common areas, hiking-altitude worthy mounds of laundry, and sleep-over monstrosities of messes. My obvious recommendation is simply reorganization. Sneaky Insider Tip: If your kids or significant other don't notice it's gone after 2 weeks, by all means donation is an option! Next up, hit the decor refresh button – change up the location of items in children's bedrooms to ring in the new school year. Rearranging a bed, moving a dresser, switching out artwork, adding a mirror, or moving pictures around always contributes to refreshing a room and will immediately allow for new energy into a new season that will make a difference.


I've been awaiting this excitedly, and it's here! Storycast Rob (Rob Edwards) read one of Gunsmoke & Dragonfire's stories, "Lonesome" by Carrie Gessner, on his podcast! Check it out here! I think it was amazing. (Just for fun, feel free to check out my livetweet thread about it.) And then, if you're so moved, support the Kickstarter at the link below!

// This is a performance- and memory-savvy method
// to use PEAR::Pager with a database.
// With this approach, the network load can be
// consistently smaller than with PEAR::DB_Pager.
//
// The following wrappers are provided: one for each PEAR
// db abstraction layer (DB, MDB and MDB2), one for
// PEAR::DB_DataObject, and one for the PHP Eclipse library
//
//
// SAMPLE USAGE
// ------------
//
// $query = 'SELECT this, that FROM mytable';
// require_once 'Pager_Wrapper.php'; //this file
// $pagerOptions = array(
//     'mode'    => 'Sliding',
//     'delta'   => 2,
//     'perPage' => 15,
// );
// $paged_data = Pager_Wrapper_MDB2($db, $query, $pagerOptions);
// //$paged_data['data'];  //paged data
// //$paged_data['links']; //xhtml links for page navigation
// //$paged_data['page_numbers']; //array('current', 'total');
