In the first quarter of 2018, the U.S. economy grew at an annualized rate of 2%, a slower pace than previously thought, but growth is expected to rebound in the current quarter. Growth was held back by the slowdown in consumer spending, which grew only 0.9% in the first quarter, after a 4% growth in the fourth quarter of last year. U.S. employers added 1,287,000 jobs during the first half of 2018. Unemployment rate was at 4% at the end of June. Compared with its pace before the 2008 recession, productivity growth is disappointingly slow. On a year-ago basis, unit labor costs were up 1.1% in the first quarter while productivity increased 1.3%, indicating acceleration in wages that nevertheless falls short of prerecession rates.

Attorney Spotlight: Fredrick Cohen
Who is Fred as an attorney?
Fred is a partner of-counsel attorney who practices in healthcare law and health insurance.
As an attorney, Fred is a combination of an entrepreneur and a lifelong student. He likes new ideas and change but he also enjoys diving into a subject to try to become an expert.
Why did Fred become an attorney?
Truthfully, Fred never made an active decision to become a lawyer. His mom and her friend convinced him to take the LSAT and he did well. So his mom and her friend pushed him to apply for law schools and he was accepted at The University at Buffalo School of Law in 1966.
What is Fred's most memorable case?
Fred's most memorable cases were participating in the founding of Independent Health Associations and then helping the organization grow as general counsel for over 20 years. In his time there the organization grew to over 500,000 members.
Who is Fred outside of work?
First and foremost he is a husband and father. Fred has been married for 55 years. Fred is also a sportsman, he loves riding his bike and taking walks. He used to have a sailboat and a boat in the virgin islands as well.
What is Fred's legal tip?
Fred's tip came from a time when a client of his who hadn't spoken to in a while called him up to read a contract for him. The contract was horrible. It made him pledge his house, his boat, and his income. The contract was very one-sided and needed to be negotiated. So Fred's tip is to always read the contract.

Bonds of Choice by HiperBunny
Original poster: emila_wan
Title: Bonds of Choice
Author: HiperBunny
Rating: NC-17 (depends on the part)
Pairing: mostly Q/O
Author's e-mail: ?
Link to story: http://www.furholt.net/chezbunny/TPM.html
Summary: ?
Reasons for recommending: If this has been rec'd before, I apologize, but I couldn't find it on the history list and BOY, if ever there is something in the Q/O fandom that everyone should read, it is this.
First, I have to warn you that this is a WIP. However, I believe the next part is in beta (Fox?) and even if it never gets finished (::sob::) it's more than worth reading. It's a LONG series. I just re-read it, for like the tenth time, and it took me about 8 hours -- and I read fast. Even so, I can't really recommend just part of it.
Why do I and many others love this fic? For one, it's an AU that is so very rich in ideas and characters, it's created its own snip-off series. I'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around just WHY this series is so good. I'll just list a few things I find fascinating about it and trust the rest of you to add comments. *G*
Imagine an AU where Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon are "high potentials" -- Jedi savants with amazing abilities, extreme longevity, and a host of quirks/weaknesses (kind of like the GT Jedi). Imagine they are members of a semi-secret society of Jedi called the Order of the Left Hand, first formed millennia ago to combat and put down the Sith, who study the Dark Side and are trained to understand and work in the Grey. Imagine a group of amazingly wonderful Jedi Original Characters ranging from a tortured musician to an artist whose precognition spills out of her at odd moments to a 200-year-old shapeshifter assassin. Imagine an Obi-Wan who discovers his greatest enemy is his own feelings of unworthiness, who knows hundreds of languages, who develops secret codes using songs, and who is prophesied to be The One, but nobody quite knows what that means. Imagine a Qui-Gon who keeps a stiletto in a box as a memento of the time he learned just how much pleasure there is in pain, and who dances to rock-n-roll music when Obi-Wan isn't looking.
I could go on and on, but really, there is no way I can do this thing justice. It's just too huge and complicated and dense.
And if you like the series, check out the spin-off stories about the character Kourt Crowe: http://www.squidge.org/~foxsden/kcfc/kcindex.html
Quote from
Obi-Wan followed his master back down to one of the boarding vehicles, onto the Arata and into their quarters in silence. Qui-Gon had hot tea on the table between them before they spoke.
"All right, tell me what happened," he opened.
Obi-Wan drew in a breath. Making sure his voice would be steady, he collected his thoughts. He opened his lips to reply, but a small choking sound was all he could manage. He looked at his master closely for the first time in many days. The gentle hands, the purposeful gaze, the soft lips and thick hair came into sharp focus. A man of peace, a man of justice, a man of purity and light looked back at him through his master's eyes.
*Too beautiful,* Obi-Wan thought. It was too beautiful, when so much ugliness had just surrounded him, so he closed his eyes for a moment. There, in the darkness, the images of the battle came back, more clearly than he had seen them in the moment they had occurred. The ugly mayhem he had brought into being, using the skills his gentle teacher had so carefully given him. He smelled again the cauterized flesh of a once living being, saw the torso separate as life was destroyed. Within him the echoes of screams, the smell of offal as dead bodies voided, tasted his own blood from where he had accidentally bitten his own lip. The faces of those he had killed, their bodies fallen around him. These people, he knew, had families, comrades who would miss them. These beings had been loved or hated but were now, because of him, just dead. He opened his eyes again, then folded his arms on the table and put his head down.
Qui-Gon held him while he wept.


The only work-around I have come up with is to move a copy of my modified source outside of astroberry-piface, redownload a fresh source, and replace the modified files each time I want to test a change. Needless to say, this is pretty slow going. Any ideas on what I can do to fix this build? I am not very fluent in cmake.

LadyBroadoak Visionary Planetary Healing Tutorial: A Palestinian negotiator writes on Gaza ..
A Palestinian negotiator writes on Gaza ..
In September 2000, I decided to do my part to bring peace to the Middle East. As a Canadian attorney of Palestinian origin, I believed I could use my legal skills to help broker a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians. Naive? Perhaps.
I left my comfortable life in California and moved to the West Bank. Moving there was not easy: I did not know what life is like under military rule. My Western upbringing left me unprepared for life without freedom. Seven years later, I am still not used to it.
As a lawyer for the Palestinian peace negotiating team, I met Presidents, Prime Ministers, Nobel Laureates, Secretaries of State and other important figures. But none of these individuals hit me with the same emotional wallop as a young woman named Majda.
I took the camera in disbelief: Majda lived less than 10 miles from the sea.
"Have you been to the sea, Majda?," I asked.
I traveled that weekend to the sea with Majda's camera. As I looked around, I tried to make sense of her life. How is it possible that a young woman has never been to the sea? How is it possible that I, a Canadian, can see Palestine and yet a Palestinian cannot?
As I took the photos, I faced a dilemma: Should the pictures include children? If they include children, will her son feel deprived? In the end, I took 30 photos. Most of them were out of focus as the tears streamed down my face. The next week I handed a smiling Majda her camera.
My once-naivete has since been replaced by realism: Peace will never come to this region until the Palestinians are granted their freedom. It has been just more than 40 years since the start of Israel's military rule over the Palestinians. Every day I wonder whether Majda and her son will ever enjoy a day of freedom — or even visit the sea.
I believe, deeply believe, that Palestinians and Jews ought to be equals in this holy land. I believe more Americans would act on behalf of Palestinians if they were aware of discriminatory Israeli policies. I believe the inability of Majda's son to travel to the sea in his homeland smacks of Jim Crow and apartheid and that it is in everybody's interest to right this wrong without further delay. This, I believe.

How is it possible that I, a Canadian, can see Palestine and yet a Palestinian cannot?
How far does Majda and her son live from the sea?
@Randy: Ten miles (it's mentioned in the article).
This story is beyond sad. I feel the pain now of how Palestenians are denied the simple pleasures of life.
Ten Miles and never to have seen the sea. How comfortable we Americans are, how sad we have become.
Last time Israel allowed me to see Palestine was 1986. I was 17 and just finished my high school. Now I'm 38 years old, with three kids, Israel didn't allow any of them to see Palestine.
I had similar experience with my son, Noor. 2005, I had to drive to the closest point to Palestine from the Jordanian side to show him Palestine.
I just read Haitham's article. So very very said.

Police Arrest Dozens In Australia For Deliberately Setting Fires
By Katherine Biek
Police in the Australian state of New South Wales say they've arrested more than 180 people since early November for fire-related offenses.
That includes 24 people who officials say deliberately set fires, 53 people who allegedly failed to comply with the state's fire ban and 47 others who allegedly discarded a lit cigarette or match on the ground.
News about the arrests comes as firefighters are battling about 130 bush fires along Australia's east coast.
At least 25 people have died, including civilians and firefighters, since the fire season began back in September. More than 1,500 homes have been destroyed and over 13 million acres of land have been scorched in the process.
A bush fire expert told ABC Australia that roughly 85% of bush fires start as a result of human activity — whether it's arson or even kids playing with fire.
In New South Wales, people convicted of intentionally starting a bush fire and being reckless as to its spread can be sentenced to up to 21 years in prison.

Typographic poster for Charles Baudelaire's prose poem Windows, taken from Le Spleen de Paris (Paris Spleen).
The poem discusses the contrast between explicit reality revealed from open windows and the ambiguous nature of life drawn from closed windows. The narrator favours the latter for its openness to interpretation, and prefers to live his life vicariously through his imagined stories of others. The title of the poem Windows serves as a typographic framework for this duality, and invites a grid-based exploration of the narrator's observational journey and self-reflection.

Immunizations is crucial for seniors.
An assistant professor within the Department of Family Medicine and Population Health, Epidemiology Division, at Virginia Commonwealth University in our latest Get Ready Report podcast, we speak with Steven Cohen. Cohen describes precisely why immunizations is crucial for seniors.
Vaccines are essential at each level of existence, and especially in the elderly, Cohen states. All of our systems that are immune to decrease in time.
Due to this susceptability, seniors are more inclined to end up being hospitalized or perish from ailments like pneumonia or even the flu virus, he stated.
Cohen covers the fables and basic facts of vaccinations for seniors into the podcast that is new. Every person half a year and more mature should obtain their unique flu virus inoculation yearly, even in the event they obtained one year that is last the formula into the flu virus shot hasnt changed.
Acquiring vaccinated on a yearly basis is amongst the greatest activities to do to avoid a cause that is major of, as well as its very cheap and often offered, he stated.
Pay attention to the podcast today or see the transcript. More resources for seniors and immunization, take a good look at attain Readys truth piece on vaccinations for seniors.

Does anyone still use MeetUp? Seems like technology has passed them by but I could be wrong.
Is it like, a support group for people who have more friends on MySpace than in the real world?
I like their name-tag logo though.
It was an early-ish project done by the web 2.0 pied pipers, 37 signals. It's a way for people to organize real-world meetings via the web, and find groups that they identify with. Kinda like a cross beetween MySpace, LinkedIn and Craigslist, minus the now traditional social networking hallmarks.

Candice's Beauty Blog!: Majorest HAUL ever!
I've got stuff from a year-long swap with 11 other ladies... I've got a few things I purchased in the USA (Milani and Jordana top right), a couple things by Flormar which isn't available here that I picked up in Alexandria, Egypt and I've got my Julep April box with add on and secret store purchase (top left).
I haven't tried everything, but I'm really enjoying my bath products by Lush... so fragrant and relaxing and beautiful and even exciting when it fizzles and stuff!
Also, I tried the Julep Oxygen Nail Treatment and liked it, at least so far. I also put on Julep Kayla and it was sheerer than I was expecting. I had to use 3 coats which I hate doing... I ended up not having quite enough time for it to fully dry so it looked a bit "off" the next day and wasn't as great as I originally believed. The colour is amazing (even in my crappy picture, top left purple-blue colour) but it wasn't that good with my unevenly dried nails. The Julep blush and bronzer are incredibly powdery, it's difficult to get the right amount on the brush - must be VERY careful. They still seem like good products though and I found gave a nice glow.
Urban Decay Naked Basics... Wow! I'm in love! The pigmentation is out of this world... the colours are not at all powdery and gross like some mattes can be. One shade is actually a bit shimmery surprised me but it fits perfectly! I really love this palette for the products and even packaging, how compact it is!
Physician's Formula 2-in-1 lash boosting serum liner. I really like this a lot! I have no idea about the serum, but this is a long-lasting, super pigmented black, thin eyeliner!
Hard Candy sheer envy primer... I tried a small amount on my hand when I got it - thought I probably got a bad batch or something. The stuff was PILLING on me!! But it seems that's just the way it is with the primer... Applied a bit more carefully a little at a time all over the face, it creates an even canvas for what's next to come and I'm actually LOVING this budget product. I totally recommend it!
I'll leave it at that for now!
Exciting!! The Naked Basics palette is amazing isn't it?!

With a hiatus of several years that has left fans scratchingtheir heads if they'd ever re-surface, the Black Watch is back withperhaps their most complete album yet. Borrowing on lessons sifted through the college-radio music of the 's, 'King of Good Intentions' combines the best qualities of 'indie' pop: wry lyrics, solid musicianship, and 5/5(6).

The Black Watch has recorded and toured consistently throughout its history except for a brief period in when the band broke up. During this hiatus, Fredrick wrote The King of Good Intentions, a semi-autobiographical novel about an indie rock band. The band recorded a CD of the same title intended as a companion piece to the novel.

This has been a big week for electric cars. Nissan announced it would start selling an all-electric sedan next year, and President Obama announced $2 billion in grants to companies pursuing electric vehicle technologies in America.
Nissan Announcement and U.S. Grants Add up to a Big Week for Electric Vehicles
Nissan announced on Sunday that it would offer an all-electric five-passenger sedan in Japan, Europe and the U.S. in 2010, and President Obama yesterday announced more than $2 billion in grants to jump-start development of electric-vehicle technologies in America. Electric drive-trains (the motor and other mechanical elements that make the vehicle go) are gaining momentum, even as an infrastructure to support them is not yet in place.
Other zero-emission drive-trains, such as those that use hydrogen fuel cells, "still [seem] a long way off," Wharton management professor John Paul MacDuffie said in an interview posted this week on Knowledge at Wharton. "There still may be some action in alternative fuels which can be used — ethanol-based fuels, or bio-diesel, or things like that. But I think the all-electric [car] is probably where the most action will be."
A number of startups are aiming to address the infrastructure challenges — such as where people will recharge their batteries if they can't do so at home. In the interview, MacDuffie, who is also co-director of the International Motor Vehicle Program, cited the work of Shai Agassi, founder of Palo Alto, Calif.-based Better Place, which proposes a network of stations that would let drivers quickly swap a spent battery for a new one in the same way that gas grill owners swap empty propane tanks for filled one. Better Place recently struck a deal with the government of Israel to build such a network there. Another startup, Coulomb Technologies of Campbell, Calif., has a revenue-sharing business model that puts recharging stations in parking garages and other public locations.
"One interesting question from an industry-structure point of view," said MacDuffie, "is what role will be played by small startups like Fisker or Tesla, versus the big [car companies]. It seems unlikely that any small startup is going to be able to scale up to the level that would bring prices really low. But a promising startup that has a really great technology might be a prime acquisition target in a couple of years."

Belleville's Andre Seldon was the second player to commit to Michigan football's 2020 recruiting class.
Kalil Branham, a 4-star wide receiver from Columbus, Ohio, committed on June 19 at a U-M football camp. A day later, Seldon committed after wowing the coaching staff at the same camp.
The junior 4-star defensive back fancies himself as the official recruiter for the class not on the coaching staff.
So far, he's 1-for-1 with the commitment of linebacker Cornell Wheeler of West Bloomfield last week.
"When I got the (Michigan) offer we talked,'' Seldon said Sunday night. "I told him the day before I committed. I said, 'You might as well, too.' He texted me and said that he was going to commit. Since then I knew we had a chance to get him. He's a great player and I'm glad we got him.''

Seldon, a sideline-to-sideline speedster who can track down running backs in the mode of Michigan All-American Devin Bush, said he had to act quickly on Wheeler with West Bloomfield's Tre Mosley committing to Michigan State and Lance Dixon headed to Penn State.
"I'm trying to help us bring in a great class," said Seldon, who was electric on special teams' in the Tigers 29-26 victory over Dearborn Fordson Friday night.
He also laid a vicious hit on Fordson's Walaa Mazloum — a tackle that could be heard from the press box.
"That was crazy," said Seldon, who stands 5-foot-8 and weighs 160 pounds.
Currently, Michigan's 2020 class has defensive tackle Denver Warren of Aurora, Ill., Branham, Seldon, Wheeler, and Nick Patterson of San Antonio, Texas. He's the brother of U-M quarterback Shea Patterson.
Seldon said he's in contact with three more Michigan targets, one which might be difficult to land.
Here's a look at the three:
Makari Paige, DB, West Bloomfield
With the help of Wheeler, Seldon will be in his ear to become a Wolverine.
Paige is 6-3, 182 pounds and ranked as a 4-star recruit by 247Sports Composite. He is ranked as the 11th best safety in the country and the fourth best player in Michigan in the 2020 class.
"I helped pull in Cornell and now we're hoping to get Makari,'' Seldon said. "Hopefully, we can get him. I feel like we can. We want to make Michigan great with the tradition. That's my pitch along with Cornell.''

Long and rangy, Paige is just the type of player who could thrive in coordinator Don Brown's defense as a safety. The 247Sports Crystal Ball predicts he'll commit to U-M over Ohio State.
Penn State and Boston College are two of the 13 schools who have offered Paige.

Rashawn Williams, WR, Detroit King
Seldon admitted this is going to be a tough one. The two have been buddies since playing on the Detroit Spartans together.
Williams is a tough, physical 6-1, 185-pound wide receiver who loves to beat on defensive backs. He has 24 offers, including Michigan State, Ohio State, Michigan, Missouri and Boston College.

Williams' mom, Rahtina Williams, said her son hadn't made a decision, but Seldon said he'd have a tough time persuading Rashawn with Ohio State in the picture.
"That's going to be tough,'' Seldon said. "I feel like I can do it. That's my boy. We've been playing together since our Detroit Spartan days. I'm very confident. He likes it down there (OSU).''
Williams is ranked by 247Sports Composite as the 24th best wide receiver in the country and the third best player in the state behind Enzo Jennings and Justin Rogers of Oak Park. The Crystal Ball lists OSU as the big leader ahead of U-M.
Michael Drennen II, RB, Dublin Coffman (Ohio)
The 5-11, 200-pound junior is from Dublin Coffman High School in Dublin, Ohio. He'd be a big catch. He is ranked as the 17th best running back in the country and the third best player in Ohio. The Crystal Ball has the race between U-M and OSU. He has 14 offers, including Georgia and Boston College.
"We met in the eighth-grade at the Sound Mind Sound Body camp,'' Seldon said. "We were both MVPs. From there our dads met. Since then we've been real close like brothers. We saw each other at camps and went to Orlando in January for a camp. That's my guy.''

UPDATED: Wed., Dec. 19, 2018, 10:31 p.m.
Ron Wells, a developer and architect whose decadeslong work in Spokane includes renovations of numerous historic buildings, was indicted Wednesday in federal court for allegedly staging a car crash in an attempt to defraud insurance companies.
The grand jury named Wells along with 21 other defendants who are accused of deliberately staging a "series of automobile, boating, stair fall, pedestrian/vehicle and other accidents" in Washington, Idaho, Nevada and California from 2013 to 2018. In total, the group is alleged to have defrauded insurance companies of more than $6 million and faces charges of mail fraud, wire fraud, conspiracy to commit mail fraud and wire fraud, conspiracy to commit health care fraud and other charges.
Wells is named in 17 of the 101 counts for his alleged role in a staged collision on Oct. 16, 2016, on Appleway Avenue in Liberty Lake.
According to the indictment, a 2015 Ram 3500 truck registered to and insured by Wells was purposely driven into a 2005 Ford F-250 registered and insured by Christopher Frangella, which was towing a 2005 Baja boat and trailer. Claiming injuries, both Wells and Frangella received settlement payouts totaling $338,266 from Safeco Insurance.
In a separate count, the court documents show a transfer of $225,000 between Wells and William Mize, who is at the center of the federal case, in April 2016. Another count alleges that a $100,319 cashier's check was exchanged by the men in March 2017.
According to a statement from his lawyer, Kevin Curtis, Wells "intends to continue fully cooperating with the government." The statement said Wells was put into a medically induced coma nine weeks ago following a setback while recovering from an undisclosed surgery. After three weeks, he awoke from the coma and was transferred to a rehabilitation facility, where he remains.
Most people named in the suit are Spokane-based, and they include Mize and Sandra Talento. Mize and Talento are described as key figures in every crash described in the indictment. Mize would drive the "at fault" vehicle into the other "no fault" vehicle, and in some cases purposely inflict injuries on his co-conspirators "to mislead responders and insurance companies." He also required his co-conspirators to urinate in a bottle, which he would pour on their clothing to make it appear they lost consciousness, court documents read.
Mize and Talento have traded ownership of a home and nearly 10 acres of land just west of the city on the outskirts of Riverside State Park. Court documents list them as married.
Kimberly and Ryan Park, who own Tru Jack Contracting with Frangella, are also named, and they blame Mize for their involvement.
Mize, who Wise referred to as "Uncle Bill," was a longtime family friend of Ryan Park, Wise said. Park borrowed $20,000 from Mize to help buy a condo, but ended up underwater on the loan.
"In order for him to get out from underneath it, Uncle Bill came up with the scam," Wise said.
After the first "scam" involving a fan that hit Park in the head got him out of debt, he continued working with Mize to defraud insurance companies, Wise said.
The indictment names 17 insurance companies that were allegedly defrauded by the conspirators, including Allstate, Berkshire Hathaway, Liberty Mutual, Nationwide, MetLife, Progressive and State Farm.
Numerous banks were also listed as defrauded, including Wells Fargo, JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, Umpqua and Banner.
U.S. Attorney Joseph Harrington of the Eastern District of Washington said he had no comment on the case.
Wells has worked as a historic preservationist and developer in the region since 1983. He has saved dozens of buildings from the wrecking ball, and 45 of his projects have qualified for historic tax credits. His projects include the Steam Plant, Carnegie Square and numerous historic apartment buildings in downtown and Browne's Addition. His renovation of the Ridpath Hotel into affordable housing is ongoing.
"It is Mr. Wells' sincere hope that the projects in which he is involved will not be jeopardized by his personal situation nor to detract from his numerous civic contributions over the years," Wells' statement said.
Paul Mann, a partner in the Ridpath project who is renovating a 3,100-square-foot condo on the hotel's 13th floor, said he expects the project to be completed.

Kukuris best friends are familiars, who accompany them when they start their journeys through big world! All familiars have different effects, and it takes time to get them known, but they're all equally helpful! You just have to find out which one is most helpful specifically for you and your kukuri.
The total amount of familiars all kukuris can hold is five, and they will be able to reach this amount once they start to rank up. Kukuris can't hold familiars before known rank!
Familiars can be removed and returned to bank only with Divitation potion! Kukuris can hold more than one of same familiar, but only one effect is activated and can't be stacked. Some familiars won't stay together however.
Below are listed all familiars of the group. Some old monthly quest familiars can be bought from Divine shop when it's open.
Shiberus gives 15% chance to be rolled for up to an extra 3 items on top of your normal roll; no longer has disadvantage if hunting large prey solo. Miniatures no longer have penalties while hunting large animals.
Cez gives a slight increase in hunting.
A Miosa and Paosa can not be equipped together at one Kukuri.
Halla guarantees to never fail a travelling activity. The rider/starter who is paired with the kukuri will now bring back one extra item on top of the kukuri's normal roll. For every extra travelling pair of kukuri & rider/starter combo in the same picture, an extra item will be rolled for the kukuri equipped with Halla.
Puuhka the familiar gives 20% chance to bring random feather from Traveling activity.
There is 7 different color variations of Varma.
DO NOT USE THUMB PICTURES! Using them will result skipping the breeding in rolling.
# of the month: Remember, 4 is the max per month, and you may be part in only 2 splits.
Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs, and Juliet has arrived to the scene! Her lover takes a break during this year, but she carries for the first time trait that makes her desirable!
A slot to Juliet costs 40€.
We will send you an invoice. The funds will be used later to purchase new monthly item artwork.
If you do not wish to publicly reveal your paypal e-mail, send momma-kuku a note with title "Slot to Juliet" with your paypal adress in it.
DO NOT comment if you plan to send the note.
YOU DO NOT NEED TO UPDATE YOUR SP ON EVERY RANK.
You can keep accumulating them, they won't disappear anywhere.
YOU MAY ONLY POST 5/DAY.
You can't claim the skillpoints before necessary rank required for the amount you're updating is confirmed!
For Kukuris with no ranks or arisen with FP over 1100 please post a link to the latest admin FP counting confirmation comment!
YOU MAY ONLY CHOOSE ONE OF THE VARIANTS.
YOU MAY ONLY GET ONE VARMA PER YEAR.
Any member with an existing kukuri may claim a Varma.
You may claim your Varma from 24th to New years (1.1.2019 9PM GMT)!
Trade or sell items to another user.
If you sold or gave items to other users, use this comment thread. Money can also be exchanged with this. The needed information is in the post.
You may delete the parts that are not needed.
Remember, your Kukuri needs to be KNOWN-rank to apply it's first 2 familiars. You get more familiar slots with other ranks.
Note that the familiar must be on your bank account to be applied!

Ekos Scheduler 'eats' frames from the sequence?
Something strange happened last night when using the scheduler. I had three jobs on the list. First two went well. But from the third job, significantly less frames were taken than specified in the sequence-file. In the sequence file there was a series of 20/6/6/6/10 frames for various filters. However, the scheduler only took 10/3/3/3/10 frames. So most were halved, but not all. Looking at the time-stamps of the files, they were all taken in proper sequential order, no gaps, so I'm not missing files because they've been written wrongly. Seems like there is some logic/intelligence applied to the frame-reduction, but I can't see where or how and how to prevent this.
Usually when something goes wrong with the scheduler it's my own fault, having made a typo in the script or so, but I checked it hundred times, and the scripts all look fine. Any idea what could have gone wrong here and why th scheduler 'ate' some of my frames?
Using KStars 3.0.0 for Mac.
Replied by sterne-jaeger on topic Ekos Scheduler 'eats' frames from the sequence?
please be so kind and post your scheduler job and your capture sequence file(s). And are you using the "remember job progress" option?
There is a known bug with calculation of captured frames we are currently working on.
Replied by wjdrijfhout on topic Ekos Scheduler 'eats' frames from the sequence?
Thank you Wolfgang, for looking into this. I have attached the three capture sequence files I used (had to change extension to *.txt, or it would not upload). I'm afraid I did not save the scheduler job as a file (should probably start doing that...).
The three sequence files were executed in order, with selecting target M63, M44 and M63 respectively. In order to make sure they stay in order I typically assign a priority like 1, 10 and 15 or so to them.
Tracking on, no focus, align or guide ticked. All Job constraint options unchecked. Selected shutdown procedures: warm CCD, Cap and Park Mount.
I just looked at the option 'remember job progress' and indeed that was selected. Can't remember I turned that on, so perhaps this was a default setting?
I've got logging on by default, but that only specifies some startup routines. Nothing in there about the actual imaging processes.
Once again, thank you very much already.
As a workaround until it is fixed, please do not use the "repeat for x runs" feature of the scheduler.
However, I never use the 'repeat for x runs', I always have 'Sequence Completion' selected.
Should I deselect 'Remember Job Progress' in the Preferences?
Oops, then I think it's not the bug we are discussing. Have you checked wether the target directory of your third job already contained the targeted 6 frames? This is exactly where the option "Remember job progress" is for. If you have some frames from a previous session in the target directory, it takes them into account and stops as soon as enough frames are present.
In your example 3 (and I guess that's the one which "eats" frames), I would expect that the target directory now contains exactly 6 light frames - as specified in the capture sequence. If you use the option "Sequence Completion", the job terminates as soon as 6 light frames with the given prefix are present in the specified directory.
If you want to take 6 frames no matter how many frames have already been taken, please tick off "Remember job progress". In this case the scheduler ignores frames already taken in the past.
You are absolutely right! There are indeed exactly 6 frames in the directory specified (three from the first sequence and three from the second sequence). This makes all sense now.
Glad nothing is wrong with the software, and just due to user error. I will uncheck the Remember Job Progress option going forward.
Thanks very much for your help solving this.

Suspect in custody after bomb threat prompts evacuation of SunRiver condos in EagleVail
Evacuation order lifted early Monday morning after sweep of property fails to turn up an explosive device

A police officer blocks off Highway 6 at the roundabout just before the SunRiver condos in EagleVail following a bomb threat Sunday night that prompted an emergency evacuation.
Ross Leonhart | rleonhart@vaildaily.com
Residents of the SunRiver condos in EagleVail were given the all-clear to return to their units around 2:20 a.m. Monday morning following a bomb threat scare that prompted an evacuation order.
No device was found by local law enforcement teams at the 62-unit condominium complex during sweeps of the property. Deputies with the Eagle County Sheriff's Office have taken a suspect into custody. Information about the suspect will be available pending further investigation.
The bomb threat was called into 911 at 10:37 p.m. Sunday night, according to Amber Barrett, a public information officer with the Eagle County Sheriff's Office.
Eagle County emergency officials issued an evacuation order just before 11 p.m. Sunday for all persons living, working, or traveling in the vicinity of the SunRiver apartments on Highway 6 after the bomb threat came into Vail Dispatch.
"Basically, they determined that until they find something, they deem it as credible," Barrett said. "They went and closed down the road, set up an evacuation center at the Avon Transit Center."
An evacuation center operated by Eagle County Sheriff's Office was set up at 500 Swift Gulch Road. A bomb squad from Jefferson County was put on notice, Barrett said, as law enforcement officials looked for anything resembling an explosive device.
Barrett said there were fire crews and emergency medical personnel on the scene to help with the evacuation, along with officers from the sheriff's office, Avon Police and Vail Police as well as the Colorado State Patrol.
There were a couple of elderly and special-needs residents who needed assistance evacuating, Barrett said.


Do tooth stains, chipped enamel or unsightly gaps between teeth make you hide your smile from the world? You don't have to live with dental imperfections. Cosmetic dentistry can transform your flawed smile into a gorgeous grin that will boost your self-confidence and allow you to share your smile with pride.
The procedures used in dental cosmetics differ from those used in traditional dentistry because they generally don't treat disease or improve your dental health. They're almost always elective and are performed solely to improve the appearance of your teeth and gums. Cosmetic procedures can correct both longstanding structural flaws and minor conditions that have developed over time. The main goal of dental cosmetics is to improve the shape, color, and symmetry of your teeth to create a more consistent and attractive smile. Today's dental technology allows cosmetic dentists to produce fast and natural-looking results that are just as durable as they are beautiful.
Our talented dentists employ many cosmetic dentistry procedures to help patients gain the smiles that they've always wanted. For example, if you need stains removed, we offer professional whitening procedures. More complex treatments include surgical placement of implants, application of veneers and orthodontic treatments. Here is a more comprehensive list of the cosmetic services we offer.
Some insurance companies offer optional cosmetic dental insurance, but most standard dental plans don't include coverage for elective and cosmetic procedures. If your treatment restores function or health to a tooth, your plan may pay for part of the cost. To determine what types of procedures are covered by your dental insurance policy, consult your insurance provider. If you'd like to explore your cosmetic treatment options, contact our cosmetic dental office to schedule an appointment with a knowledgeable cosmetic dentist.

Every smile is different and requires different treatments and procedures to look its best.

Climate change is a critical global challenge, and already affects how we do business. In the last century, average global temperatures rose by almost 1°C, causing huge changes in our climate and forcing food producers to adjust how, when and where they grow their crops.
To help combat the causes of global warming, we are determined to reduce our GHG emissions and use more renewable energy. We have set ambitious targets to improve environmental performance and are striving towards zero environmental impact in our operations. As we rely on farmers and food producers to supply our key raw materials, we are always looking for ways to become more resilient and produce food with fewer natural resources.
Around 97% of the energy needed by our Nescafé Dolce Gusto plant in Montes Claros, Brazil, is met using renewable sources. The few remaining GHG emissions are offset through external projects financed through the purchase of carbon credits. Montes Claros also has a neutral impact on water and waste for disposal, making it our first factory to reach this 'triple-zero' milestone.
We support smallholder cocoa producers in Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire through our partnership with Feed the Future, a US government initiative that supports national approaches to addressing the causes of hunger and poverty. Through its Climate Smart Cocoa project, we help farmers adopt agricultural practices that offset the challenges of climate change.
We already provide climate change information in our Annual Report package, using the Climate Change Reporting Framework developed by the Climate Disclosure Standards Board. And in 2017, we strengthened our reporting by implementing the Guide for Responsible Corporate Engagement in Climate Policy, developed by CDP, the UN Global Compact, Ceres, The Climate Group, WWF and the World Resources Institute.
As a member of RE100, we aim to procure 100% of our electricity from renewable sources such as solar, wind and hydropower within the shortest practical timescale. We have doubled the renewable electricity since last year and reached around 25.7% of renewable electricity in 2017. In some markets, such as Germany, UK and Ireland, Switzerland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland, Austria, Italy and Brazil, we procure 100% renewable electricity. In 2017, we shared best practice examples of renewable energy use with other RE100 members through webinars and a conference in Brussels.
We are increasing our use of renewable fuels, with some factories using spent coffee grounds as a renewable fuel and others using wood chips. Our Henniez bottling factory in Switzerland has halved its CO2 emissions since it opened a biogas plant. This is powered by manure from local dairy farms, mixed with coffee waste from our Nespresso and Nescafé factories nearby.
Continuing to explore distribution options that lower emissions, Nestlé Waters converted 8% of its fleet in Italy from diesel to gas-powered vehicles at the start of 2017. Nestlé Waters North America is also introducing alternative fuels to reduce its carbon footprint, switching 595 of its ReadyRefresh delivery vehicles to propane gas by October 2017.

Johann Wilhelm Carl Theodor von der Marck (* 15. Februar 1815 in Hamm; † 20. November 1900 ebenda) war ein deutscher Apotheker, Botaniker und Geologe.

Leben

Am 15. Februar 1815 wurde Wilhelm von der Marck als Sohn des Gastwirts Johann Daniel von der Marck (1784–1837) und der Antoinette Sophie Christine Pröpsting in Hamm geboren. Von 1824 bis 1830 besuchte er das Gymnasium Hammonense. Als Apotheker war er zunächst im Rheinland tätig, seit 1840 aber in Lüdenscheid, wo er 1848 Stadtverordneter wurde und Materialien für eine Stadtchronik zusammentrug. Im Jahr 1840 heiratete er in Hamm Josefine Friederike Luise Uhlendorff (1818–1861), eine Tochter des Apothekers Friedrich Uhlendorff. Ab 1851 führte er die vom Schwiegervater übernommene Einhorn-Apotheke in Hamm, verkaufte diese aber 1864, um sich ganz den Wissenschaften und der Kommunalpolitik zu widmen. Von 1852 bis 1893 bekleidete er das Ehrenamt des Ersten Beigeordneten, d. h. des stellvertretenden Bürgermeisters. Außerdem begründete er 1852 den Wissenschaftlichen Verein in Hamm mit, dessen Vorsitzender er 1864 wurde. 1858 wurde er an der Universität Bonn zum Dr. phil. promoviert. Er war aktiv im Museumsverein und in der AG Bad Hamm. Seine paläontologischen Forschungen haben ihm weit über Hamm hinaus einen guten Ruf verschafft. Am 20. November 1900 verstarb Dr. Wilhelm von der Marck. Sein Grab befindet sich noch heute auf dem Ostenfriedhof. Nach Wilhelm von der Marck sind die Von-der-Marck-Straßen im Hammer Süden und in Lüdenscheid benannt.

1877 verlieh ihm seine Heimatstadt Hamm die Ehrenbürgerschaft.

(1) state treasury, (2) status under state law, and (3) autonomy.
In Benn v. First Judicial Dist. of Pa., 426 F.3d 233, 239 (3d Cir. 2005), the Court addressed whether the First Judicial District of Pennsylvania (Philadelphia's state court system) was entitled to sovereign immunity.
The Court noted the funding scheme for this judicial system placed "considerable financial responsibility" on the local counties rather than the state. Benn, 426 F.3d at 240.
But more significant was the judicial system's status under state law and its lack of autonomy from the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.
Therefore, the Court concluded "the Fitchik factors strongly favor Eleventh Amendment immunity." Id.

NEW VIDEO FOR LEONARD COHEN SONG "PUPPETS"
VIDEO MARKS FIVE YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF LEONARD COHEN'S PASSING
(November 5, 2021) "Puppets," the final video from the posthumous album Thanks for the Dance is released today, commemorating the fifth anniversary of Cohen's passing (November 7th, 2016). The video marks the return of director Daniel Askill, who also created the "Happens to the Heart" video. Daniel worked closely with Leonard's son, Adam Cohen, on this closing cinematic vision, the last of five videos created for the album. Watch "Puppets" here.
Shot in black and white, the emotive visual features artist and actor Bobbi Salvör Menuez, also in "Happens to the Heart," exploring Cohen's powerful lyrical themes of evil and control. Askill is known for his artistic creations using film, photographs, video installation, and sculpture, and has directed films, commercials, fashion films, and music videos (Sia, Paul McCartney, and Lady Gaga).
"It has been such a gift to have the opportunity to create these visual responses to the music of Leonard Cohen. Cohen has an incredible ability to create a bridge between the sublime and the prosaic — the metaphysical and political. In 'Puppets,' he does that while addressing dark themes with a poetic insight," said Daniel Askill of the project. "This video for Puppets has been born out of a wonderful ongoing dialogue with Adam Cohen. It is in some ways a darker counter point to the first film we made for 'Happens to the Heart.' Shot on location in New York, this film follows the symbolic journey of a single figure through darkness towards a transcendence. In many ways, it is visually pointing to the idea that Leonard often beautifully evokes in different ways — that the darkness and the light of our experience is deeply entangled — and maybe at a fundamental level they are in fact one and the same."
Released in 2019, Thanks For The Dance was an unexpected harvest of new songs from the master Leonard Cohen. Collaborating with producer (and son) Adam Cohen, friends and colleagues gathered to support and complete the work Leonard had begun, making an album that echoes the sounds of his catalogue, while remaining fresh, current, and resonant.
About Leonard Cohen
Leonard Cohen was a master songwriter, musician, poet, novelist, and visual artist whose stunning body of original work has touched the lives of millions with a career spanning six decades. With over 30 million albums worldwide and 12 published books, Cohen's influence on musical and theatrical artists the world over is inestimable. Cohen was honoured as a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award Recipient (2010), inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame (2008), the Canadian Music Hall Of Fame (2006), the Canadian Songwriters Hall Of Fame (2006), and the Songwriters Hall Of Fame (2010). He received the prestigious Principe de Asturias Prize (2011), the Glenn Gould Prize (2011), Canada's highest civilian honours – Officer of the Order of Canada (1991), Companion to the Order of Canada (2003), and the Grand Officer of the National Order of Quebec (2008).

I adore this simple felt garland. What a great tactile way to teach kids about the flags of the world.
Each adorable medal has a cute number imprinted on it so you are ready to celebrate the Olympics.
Nothing says Olympics like the iconic rings. These simple Olympic rings are so easy to make and would make fun party decorations.
Let the games begin with these simple Olympic torches made out of tissue paper, paper plate and toilet paper tube. Then have a fun medal ceremony. These cute medals actually contain a cookie. How cute is that!
Check out these adorable medals. I love that they have a special little pocket to slip in little notes of encouragement.
In the ancient Olympic games, if an Olympic athlete won an event a wreath woven out of olive branches —symbolizing peace in ancient Greece—was placed upon his head. Pay homage to the ancient tradition with a modern-day version of this wearable wreath.
I love these gorgeous swimming self portraits. They have an underwater feel and the bubble border is a fun finishing touch.
Only a few moments to create art with the kids, no problem. Check out this simple ring inspired artwork. Perfect for creating with little fingers.
