The purposes of God often develop slowly because His grand designs are never hurried. The great New England preacher Phillips Brooks was noted for his poise and quiet manner. At times, however, even he suffered moments of frustration and irritability. One day a friend saw him feverishly pacing the floor like a caged lion. "What's the trouble, Mr. brooks?" he asked.
Some of the greatest missionaries of history devotedly spread the seed of God's Word and yet had to wait long periods before seeing the fruit of their efforts. William Carey, for example, labored 7 years before the first Hindu convert was brought to Christ in Burma, and Adoniram Judson toiled 7 years before his faithful preaching was rewarded. In western Africa, it was 14 years before one convert was received into the Christian church. In New Zealand, it took 9 years; and in Tahiti, it was 16 years before the first harvest of souls began.
Thomas a Kempis described that kind of patience in these words: "He deserves not the name of patient who is only willing to suffer as much as he thinks proper, and for whom he pleases. The truly patient man asks (nothing) from whom he suffers, (whether) his superior, his equal, or his inferior...But from whomever, or how much, or how often wrong is done to him, he accepts it all as from the hand of God, and counts it gain!"
True patience is waiting without worrying.
C. Swindoll, Growing Strong, p. 124.
"Patience serves as a protection against wrongs as clothes do against cold. For if you put on more clothes as the cold increases it will have no power to hurt you. So in like manner you must grow in patience when you meet with great wrongs, and they will then be powerless to vex your mind."
"Beloved, have you ever thought that someday you will not have anything to try you, or anyone to vex you again? There will be no opportunity in heaven to learn or to show the spirit of patience, forbearance, and longsuffering. If you are to practice these things, it must be now." Yes, each day affords countless opportunities to learn patience. Let's not waste them.
Commenting on our need for this virtue, M.H. Lount has said, "God's best gifts come slowly. We could not use them if they did not. Many a man, called of God to...a work in which he is pouring out his life, is convinced that the Lord means to bring his efforts to a successful conclusion. Nevertheless, even such a confident worker grows discouraged at times and worries because results do not come as rapidly as he would desire. But growth and strength in waiting are results often greater than the end so impatiently longed for. Paul had time to realize this as he lay in prison. Moses must have asked, 'Why?' many times during the delays in Midian and in the wilderness. Jesus Himself experienced the discipline of delay in His silent years before His great public ministry began."
God wants us to see results as we work for Him, but His first concern is our growth. That's why He often withholds success until we have learned patience. The Lord teaches us this needed lesson through the blessed discipline of delay.
Hebrews 12:1 tells us to "run with endurance" the race set before us. George Matheson wrote, "We commonly associate patience with lying down. We think of it as the angel that guards the couch of the invalid. Yet there is a patience that I believe to be harder -- the patience that can run. To lie down in the time of grief, to be quiet under the stroke of adverse fortune, implies a great strength; but I know of something that implies a strength greater still: it is the power to work under stress; to have a great weight at your heart and still run; to have a deep anguish in your spirit and still perform the daily tasks. It is a Christ-like thing! The hardest thing is that most of us are called to exercise our patience, not in the sickbed but in the street." To wait is hard, to do it with "good courage" is harder!
Our Daily Bread, April 8.
The old man immediately began eating without saying any prayer or blessing. So Abraham asked him, "Don't you worship God?"

Cyber crime increases everyday; and the government isn't doing anything to salvage the situation. If there's no job, there'll surely be cyber crime.

Kidney, liver diseases rising due to galamsey – Deputy Minister
By Attah Dabone
A Deputy Minister of Information, Fatimatu Abubakar has indicated that kidney and liver diseases are increasing in some parts of the country especially in mining areas due to the impacts of illegal small scale mining (Galamsey).
In her view, the country needs a proactive response to the galamsey menace.
Speaking on the on 3FM Tuesday October 11, she indicated that the government is determined to nip this in the bud.
"We cannot move the whole military into the mining areas. We need to solve this problem. There is so much that we need to do and I can say that the president is committed to fighting corruption.
"We need a proactive response and not a response to response. We need intelligence and intention to fight this galamsey menace.
"We have a lot of kidney and liver diseases as a result of this illegal mining," she said.
https://twitter.com/3fm927/status/1579766080645791744?s=20&t=AnWYGFD_UHUQkbQnci-5EA
Meanwhile, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has told the National House of Chiefs that the task to protect the lands and the environment from the effect of Galamsey is a joint responsibility between the government and the traditional authorities.
Mr Akufo-Addo explained during a meeting with the Chiefs in Kumasi on Wednesday October 5 that 80 per cent of the lands in Ghana are in the custody of the chiefs.
This means that they have a role to play in protecting the resource, he said.

Can you paint over glass tile backsplash?
When i bought my townhouse the kitchen had multi colored glass tile.not my style or color ! Money is tight!Any suggestions?
How to paint over glass mosaic backsplash?
You can paint glass; just use a paint that specifies glass. Krylon has a new sea glass spray that's interesting. Buy a can and experiment on a piece of melamine art board (bought at an art store). If you don't want to try the sea glass, whatever you decide on, practice on a piece of art board before you tackle the backsplash. Get your technique down before the job. And be sure the tape off everything. Proper prep will make you happy with the finished job. Good luck.
You could also cover with contact paper and gain a variety of looks with no worries about washing them down.

Mercy on the Doorstep
By Gip Hoppe
Directed by Jim Simpson
March 14 - April 14, 2006
Premieres a New Drama by Gip Hoppe
Limited Off-Broadway Engagement runs March 14 – April 14
"Hoppe has achieved that rare amalgam: a comic drama that entertains even as it stimulates debate… this play ought to be required viewing" — The Boston Globe
The Flea Theater presents the New York Premiere of MERCY ON THE DOORSTEP by Gip Hoppe. Coming off a successful run at the Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater in Cape Cod, this dark comedy earned raves from the Boston Globe and the Cape Cod Times. Flea Artistic Director Jim Simpson directs. Produced on an Off-Broadway contract, previews begin March 14 with opening night scheduled for March 23.
MERCY ON THE DOORSTEP tells the story of Corrine and Rena, an alcoholic widow and her born-again, right-wing stepdaughter. This mismatched pair must learn to co-exist in the house that Corrine's husband left behind. It is a story about hope, redemption, and the ability for even the most disparate of philosophies to find a common ground.
The play stars Laura Esterman (Obie, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Award winner for Marvin's Room), Jenn Harris (Lucille Lortel and Theatre World award winner for Modern Orthodox), and Mark Rosenthal (Marvin's Room, After Ashley, Moonlight Room). Both Esterman and Rosenthal were in the original Wellfleet Harbor production. Set design is by Susan Zeeman Rogers, with costumes by Nathalie Ferrier, lighting by Kevin Hardy and sound by Rick Arnoldi.
Gip Hoppe is the author of fifteen plays including Jackie: An American Life, Cuckooland, Savior of the Universe and Ruby Tuesday. His plays have been performed on and off Broadway, London's West End, The State Theater of Germany and regional theaters across the U.S. His play A New War won the prestigious Elliot Norton Award in Boston and was produced at The Long Wharf Theater in New Haven. Gip is a founding member of Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater (W.H.A.T.) on Cape Cod.
MERCY ON THE DOORSTEP runs March 14 – April 14; schedule varies. All tickets are $35 and may be purchased by calling 212-352-3101 or visiting www.TheaterMania.com.

Facebook might have severed all ties with Cambridge Analytica though the after effects continue to linger on. And some including WhatsApp co-founder Brian Acton have even suggested deleting Facebook as a whole to restore order amid the ongoing mess.
Interestingly, Facebook happens to be the current owners of WhatsApp, having bought it in 2014 for $19 billion. Acton has since snapped ties with the messaging company even though the other co-founder, Jan Koum continues heading the messaging platform.
Facebook had earlier stated its policy to uphold user's privacy at all costs remain unchanged. It is this that had prompted the company to remove all connections with Cambridge Analytica and SSL though that was not before details of 50 million Facebook users have already been compromised.
To make matters worse for the social media giant, Cambridge Analytica also happens to be the same firm that is believed to have helped Donald Trump wins the 2015 US Presidential elections. Facebook has been under investigations since then, and the latest episode isn't helping its cause any further.
A few other former Facebook executives Sean Parker, Justin Rosenstein, and investor Roger McNamee too have expressed their reservations about the company and how it can pose a security risk for its users. The issues aren't with the security of Facebook's servers as the amount of information already visible on the site in itself can be enough for mischief makers to get along with their tasks.
All of this also brings to fore privacy issues of Facebook users like never before. And this could be the right time to set things right to prevent apps stealing data that users would prefer not to share with others.
That includes being aware of the sort of permission being granted to the apps, and ticking those things off that seem suspicious. Keeping a tab of the Facebook privacy setting too is important as it governs the sort of things that others get to see about the user. Similarly, the ad settings too can be manipulated to govern which of your details Facebook is authorized to see to serve you ads.
All of these are often sidestepped in the zeal to get online and get along with friends or family though the security implications of it can be far reaching. Worse still, users aren't likely to be aware of the mess after it has reached huge proportions.

ACC Announces Working Alliance with OSHA
Brian Grossman
CPI, DII and ADI panels to lead the partnership for ACC
WASHINGTON (Sept. 14, 2017) – The American Chemistry Council (ACC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) today announced a new Alliance designed to foster safer and more healthful American workplaces operating with diisocyanate chemicals along the polyurethane value chain. Three groups from ACC will lead the work with OSHA: the Center for the Polyurethanes Industry (CPI), Diisocyanates (DII) and Aliphatic Diisocyanates (ADI) panels.
The Alliance has three primary goals: raising awareness of OSHA's rulemaking and enforcement initiatives, conducting training to educate employers, workers and OSHA officials on safety issues, and developing effective outreach and communication efforts to increase the visibility of the partnership and its goals.
"We're thrilled to be working with OSHA on making American workplaces even safer, which has always been a top priority for CPI and ACC as a whole," said Lee Salamone, senior director of CPI. "Our partnership with OSHA will build on our strong foundation of product stewardship and outreach and will help us identify additional areas of emphasis so we can better target our activities."
According to the agreement, the Alliance partnership aims to provide members, occupational physicians, stakeholders and others in the polyurethanes value chain with information, guidance and access to training resources that will help them further protect the health and safety of workers.
"The chemical industry is committed to safety and this partnership supports our continuing efforts to enhance worker protection," said Sahar Osman-Sypher, director of DII and ADI. "The partnership will work toward further educating workers and employers on how to use diisocyanates safely in their everyday working environment."
The agreement, which was signed on Sept. 13, provides the framework for the two organizations to work together toward the previously mentioned common goals. The agreement also stipulates a timeframe of two years – through September 2019 – for the Alliance.
For more information about diisocyanates and polyurethanes, please visit CPI's website, which hosts an extensive resource library. The DII panel page and the ADI panel page each contain a wide range of resources, including a video that showcases how daily products are made better with diisocyanates and an infographic about the decrease in diisocyanates-related asthma cases.

SWITCH THOSE BARS? — WETHEPEOPLE BIKE CO.
The accolade of receiving your very own signature product is normally reserved for once you make it to the esteemed ranks of the PRO team, however in Mike Curley's case we made a special exception. At the time Mike was one of the most exciting and creative riders on the Wethepeople AM squad, and well on his way towards that spot on the PRO team, so working with him on numerous video projects combined with a signature part was something we were very confident would help him on his journey.
When we first sat down with Mike and discussed working with him on a signature bar, Mike was very specific in what he wanted. A taller 8.75" rise paired up with a slightly narrower 28.75" width so that the bar could be easily cut down without looking too small. Mike wanted a bit more upsweep that the Mad Max bars he was running before, so we found a good halfway point and bumped it up to 2.5 degrees paired with 11.5 degrees of backsweep which according to him; make the bar more comfortable on the wrists.
After speaking to Curley about issues he's had with bars in the past, he mentioned that he normally ends up going over the bars a good amount when bailing from Nosemanuals and Hang 5s. We took this into consideration and decided to give the Switch bar a unique oval cross tube, which was designed to be much more dent resistant than a regular crosstube. The Switch Bar is fully heat treated for strength, and we also beefed up the tubing thickness on the bends to 1.6mm which really helps prolong the life of the bar and prevent bending.
A simple combination of perfect geometry and bullet proof construction has made the Switch Bar one of best selling handlebars to date. In fact you will find the majority of the team rocking them right now. The Switch Bar is available now in Gloss Black, Trans green, Trans Blue and Black Titan from Wethepeople dealers worldwide. Look out for two exciting new additions to the Mike Curley's signature SWITCH series dropping later this year.

Q: "Missing semicolon" error on Async function declaration In a Vue app, I want to group js functions in a js file. In getData.js , I have the following:
import { collection, getDocs } from 'firebase/firestore/lite';
import { db } from "./firebase/index";
import store from "../store/index"

  async getProjects () {
    const querySnapshot = await getDocs(collection(db, "projects"));
      querySnapshot.forEach((doc) => {
      let project = doc.data()
      project.id = doc.id
      store.state.currentProjectList.push(project)
    });
  }

  export { getProjects }

I get the "Missing semicolon." error on the line where I declare the function: async getProjects().
(I know this isn't the way to add data to the store but this is only for testing purpose)
Thanks for any help!

A: async getProjects () { is method declaration syntax; it is only allowed inside an object or class definition.
To create a local function you need to use a function declaration or an arrow function.
async function getProjects () {

or
const getProjects = async () => {

(You could also use a function expression, but that gets even further from the syntax you had).

You also have a missing semi-colon at the of the previous line – import store from "../store/index" which isn't a JS error (but might be a linting error if you are using a linter and didn't mention that).

Rami Malek: "I had to find a side of Freddie I could relate to"
The Mr Robot star talks to us about some of the triumphs and challenges of working on Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody...
By Caroline Preece | October 30, 2018 |
Rami Malek might be very well-known within geek circles after three seasons of cult hit Mr Robot, but he's about to become a household name with a role that many thought may have been cursed. Having spent nearly a decade in development hell, Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody puts the actor in the iconic role of frontman Freddie Mercury, and he's now receiving widespread praise and Oscar buzz for the performance.
Despite working hard to capture some of the charisma and stage presence of Mercury, however, a simple imitation was never going to be enough for Malek.
"There's no point imitating him, because you can watch a documentary," he told Den of Geek. "I'm never going to be anyone's Freddie Mercury. I may be a version of him, but I always thought about just delivering his essence and doing my damndest to embody him in some way, shape or form.
"In order to do that I tried to absolve myself of the idea of him as a rock god, icon, deity, monolith or supernatural human being. He struts on stage with a cape and a crown, and he might as well be flying. My feeling was that I just had to find a way to bring him down to earth and find a side I could perhaps relate to. That was the Farrokh Bulsara side that we meet at the beginning of the film."
Learning more about the singer's personal life was a pleasant side-effect of joining the project, Malek said, even though he was already a fan of Queen's music.
The actor continued: "I knew about the music, and I knew about his sexuality, but I did not know his real name. I didn't know that he had this all-encompassing relationship with Mary Austin, and I didn't know about Jim Hutton. I didn't even know what his relationship with the band was, except that they had made music that is indelible and everlasting."
Perhaps in opposition with the idea that Bohemian Rhapsody is primarily the brainchild of bandmates Brian May and Roger Taylor, Malek told Den of Geek that it was difficult at times to gain access to their memories and stories of Mercury when the band was at their height.
"It was a massive obstacle because, although I had them at my disposal, it's still very difficult to approach them about Freddie as he means so much to them," he said. "As private as he was, they're also still reserved in talking about him. He was a dear friend and brother who they've lost, so it's not easy for them to share memories. I've actually got more out of Brian now since the film finished than I did while filming."
"They tried not to occupy the set with scenes that were more in the acting territory, and they were definitely present for the concert sequences," Malek added on the band's involvement on set day to day. "Brian came when we were creating the Bohemian Rhapsody performance and he got a kick out of those memories. He gave us a lot of insight. He's an expert and a tactician and, I don't know whether he'd love this word, but he's a perfectionist."
Before completing the project, he admits that there was a worry that the promise for Mercury's voice to be mixed over the top of Malek's during performances would not be fulfilled.
He said: "Every time you see singing, it's me singing at the top of my lungs to the point where the sound guys were telling the director and the ADs that I was losing my voice. I had been told early on that they would use Freddie as much as possible, but it's scary going out there everyday and never knowing if I'm being tricked. It's hard to believe someone in Hollywood, but now when I listen to it and hear a whole lot of Freddie I'm very, very happy about that."
The actor's two most significant roles to date may look world's apart on the surface, but in reality Mr Robot's Elliot Alderson has a few key things in common with Freddie Mercury. On whether he's drawn to outsider characters when choosing his roles, Malek said he often gets emotional speaking about the impact his most famous role has had on people around the world.
"It's so much to do with the work of Sam Esmail, who's now a dear friend of mine. I cherish Elliot for his shortcomings and his ability to persevere and speak as the cog in the wheel, so to speak. For the people who feel their voice is not heard, he allows them to shout at the top of their lungs in so many different ways. I think Freddie has that same capability.
"He's a very defiant creature who harbours so much conflict and doesn't know his place in the world or how he was meant to fit in. He wanted to reach out to all of those outcasts at the bank of the room who felt they didn't belong. When he's out there holding them in the palm of his hand, he's saying 'hey, we all belong together – share this with me and go be your most authentic self'".
Bohemian Rhapsody is in UK cinemas now.

Exports of Austrian bottled wine jumped 30% in 2007, further cementing the country's reputation for fine wine produced in small quantities.
According to Austria Statistik, which tracks domestic and international wine sales, Austria exported 35.8m litres of bottled quality wine valued at €91.8m (£72.4m/$143.9) in 2007, up from the 28.6m litres worth €69.4m (£54.7m/$109m) in 2006.
When combined with Austrian bulk wine exports, the total for 2007 reached 56m litres worth €105 million (£83m/$165m) – compared with the previous year's 51.6m litres valued at €81.5m (£64m/$127.3m).
'This dramatic increase proves how well the major quality efforts implemented by Austria's winemakers have taken hold,' said Willi Klinger, general manager of the Austrian Wine Marketing Board.
'It took several years of hard work in the vineyards and wineries before the momentum of exponential growth in exports began, in around 2000,' he added.
Klinger also pointed out that while Austria is one of the world's smallest wine countries – producing an average of 2.5m hectolitres annually from 48,000 hectares of vines – it has cemented a reputation for high quality. Indigenous varietals such as Grüner Veltliner, for example, have been winning over consumers seeking a diversion from commercial, new world style wines.
'Cool climate wines with character and authenticity are increasingly in demand,' he added.
Germany has been the top importer of Austrian wine since 2000, and in 2007, bought 39.5m litres, up from 35.3m in 2006.
Switzerland, Liechtenstein and the US have been consistent top importers as well, while the Netherlands, Scandinavia and the UK showed significant interest in 2007.

Meet your Board President Wyatt Bates
Wyatt Bates is a real estate agent and his wife Pat is a retired attorney. Wyatt grew up in Scioto County and became friends with farmers through his father's scrap yard and used auto parts business. His mom would sometimes trade parts for produce that she used for canning. Wyatt bought a small piece of property about 17 years ago out of a desire to preserve the land. While cleaning up the property, he decided to become a beekeeper like his grandfather and great uncle."The reason I started keeping bees what that I was concerned because I had heard about the absence of pollinators and that the natural bee population had declined severely," he said. "I'm interested in how science works in our lives and wanted to help out."He keeps bees not only to produce some honey for family and friends, pollinate flowers and crops but to educate the public about the importance of honey bees. For 15 years he has done school presentations and participated in the county's Ag Adventure Days, which draws 600 students every year."This is a great opportunity to interact with 600 future consumers. They may not be decision makers now but they will be someday. To connect with future decision makers and influence them at some level is important," he said.Wyatt used to keep up to 20 hives but has just a few today. He said each hive, which typically contains 50,000 to 100,000 bees, has its own personality."Some hives are easy and some are hard to get along with," he said. "One year I pulled in and the local beekeeper inspector came running from the side of the house and said 'That's one mean hive you've got there.' It's important to know your hives' personalities. People ask me 'Do you get stung?' Yeah, I do. They ask if I'm scared of them. I tell them 'don't rob the honey unless you've got your shoes on and are prepared'."Wyatt likes hiking, backpacking and riding his Harley Davidson."If you ride a motorcycle, you really connect with the land. You really get to see and smell everything on those country roads," he said.Wyatt first heard about the Scioto County Farm Bureau through a realtor who said he should join since he was a landowner. He thinks everybody should be a Farm Bureau member and his reasoning is simple."Agriculture affects every living human on earth because everybody eats," he said. "It's important to get the message out that the United States has the most affordable, safest and abundant supply of food and nutrients."As for his favorite food, Wyatt said he loves Italian and Polish ethnic foods.

Newcomer Christian Wood, James Harden help Rockets thump Spurs – Sportsnet.ca
Harry Miller
A preseason that's just beginning for some players is already ending for others.
James Harden suited up in Houston for only the second time, with newcomer Christian Wood getting his first — and only — action in a strong debut. The Rockets' 128-106 victory over San Antonio on Thursday was the finale of their four-game exhibition slate, so the rest of their preparation for the regular season will have to come in practices.
That's not ideal for a rookie coach such as Stephen Silas, but it isn't much easier even for a veteran like the Spurs' Gregg Popovich, whose team was playing its last of three games.
"I would think any coach would say he's said he was more ready in the past," Popovich said.
The Rockets looked more ready Thursday, with Wood finishing with 27 points and 10 rebounds in his first action since leaving Detroit for Houston. Harden had 20 points, nine assists, seven rebounds and a pretty between-the-legs pass to his new big man, and Eric Gordon scored 23 points.
It was Wood's first game action since March but he's not worried about needing more time to get ready.
"I'm ready right now," he said.
Before, there was more time between the opening of training camps and the start of the regular season, more opportunities to schedule games. This time, with everything shortened because of the coronavirus pandemic, four tune-up games is all anyone could get, and some opted for only half that.
Popovich said that's prevented coaches from putting in all the schemes they want, and Silas was more concerned with keeping his players healthy than strategy, anyway. He rested newcomers DeMarcus Cousins and John Wall.
Wall's old team, the Washington Wizards, got Bradley Beal on the floor for the first time but are still waiting to see Russell Westbrook, who was swapped for Wall.
Preseason play ends Saturday after barely a week of action. Coaches will then have just a couple days from there to finalize rosters before real games begin.
"Fortunately everybody's in the same boat, so there's nobody ahead of anybody else," Popovich said.
Thursday's games:
ROCKETS 128, SPURS 106
At Houston, Bruno Caboclo chipped in 12 points off the bench as Houston finished 3-1. The Rockets led by as much as 34 points.
DeMar DeRozan scored 21 points for the Spurs, who finished 0-3. Rookie Devin Vassell had 18 points off the bench, Dejounte Murray added 17 points and 10 rebounds, and Patty Mills scored 16 points.
LaMarcus Aldridge shot 3 for 12, missing all five 3-point attempts, and had six points for the Spurs.
WARRIORS 113, KINGS 109
At Sacramento, Stephen Curry scored 16 of his 29 points in the third quarter.
Curry was 6 for 13 from 3-point range and added six assists, while Kelly Oubre Jr. scored 22 points for the Warriors (2-1).
Harrison Barnes scored 19 points for the Kings (2-2). Hassan Whiteside had 12 points and nine rebounds, but De'Aaron Fox endured a 3-for-17 shooting night en route to his eight points and 13 assists. He missed all seven 3-point attempts.
PISTONS 97, WIZARDS 86
At Washington, Josh Jackson scored 17 points off the bench for Detroit.
Jerami Grant scored 15 points and Delon Wright added 13 as the Pistons (2-1) led by as much as 26 points.
Beal scored 10 points in 16 minutes. Troy Brown Jr. led Washington (0-2) with 14 points.
JAZZ 125, CLIPPERS 105
At Salt Lake City, Bojan Bogdanovic and Jordan Clarkson each made five 3-pointers and scored 20 points for the Jazz.
Donovan Mitchell had 15 points and eight assists, while Rudy Gobert and Mike Conley each added 12 points for Utah (3-0).
Paul George scored 16 points and Kawhi Leonard had 13 for the Clippers (0-3).
GRIZZLIES 128, HAWKS 106
At Atlanta, Ja Morant had 18 points and 13 assists for the Grizzlies (3-0). Dillon Brooks led Memphis with 24 points and Jonas Valanciunas had 20 points and 13 rebounds.
Kyle Anderson had 11 points and seven rebounds as Memphis made 19 3-pointers.
De'Andre Hunter scored 22 points for the Hawks (1-2). Trae Young shot 4 for 15 and finished with 15 points and six assists, and Clint Capela had 13 points and nine rebounds.
HORNETS 123, MAGIC 115
At Orlando, Terry Rozier scored 20 points and rookie LaMelo Ball came off the bench to add 18 more.
Devonte' Graham also had 18 for the Hornets (1-2), while Miles Bridges finished with 17. Charlotte made 18 3-pointers, with Ball and Graham knocking down four apiece.
Nikola Vucevic had 27 points and 12 rebounds for the Magic. Markelle Fultz added 14 points, six rebounds and six assists.
TIMBERWOLVES 129, MAVERICKS 127, OT
At Dallas, Karl-Anthony Towns scored 20 points and long afterward the Timberwolves held on to win when 7-foot-4 centre Boban Marjanovic missed a potential winning 3-pointer.
Malik Beasley had 18 points and 11 rebounds for the Timberwolves (1-2), who also got 18 points from Jarrett Culver. No. 1 pick Anthony Edwards came off the bench for 17 points.
Luka Doncic had 20 points, seven assists and five rebounds for the Mavericks, though he missed all six 3-point attempts and went 6 for 18 overall. Tim Hardaway Jr. scored 18 points in the first preseason loss for Dallas (2-1).

Canadiens @ Oilers recap: Young stars, newcomers shine in another win – Habs Eyes on the Prize
With a day off on Sunday, the Montreal Canadiens strolled back into Rogers Place with a massive amount of swagger following a 5-1 blowout on Saturday night. With a pair of two-goal efforts from Jeff Petry and Tomas Tatar, plus a stellar showing from Carey Price, Montreal romped through a shellshocked Oilers team.
The Oilers changed their lineup, possibly for the worse by swapping Caleb Jones and Ethan Bear for William Lagesson and Kris Russell on defence, but did add Zack Kassian back to Connor McDavid's wing.
The Canadiens turned to Jake Allen in net for his first start in a Montreal uniform, while the Oilers stuck with Mikko Koskinen despite his poor showing on Saturday.
Unlike the first contest, it was the Oilers who started the game in control, taking advantage of a poorly timed icing to start their offensive attack. The top line tried to take advantage of their matchup with the Habs' fourth line, but a strong series of saves from Allen denied them the game's opening goal.
Josh Anderson came up a bit lame after a hit deep in the Habs' zone, but his absence was immediately forgotten by what happened next. An in-zone faceoff went back to Brett Kulak at the left point. Kulak, not seeing a lane, dished it off to Alexander Romanov playing to his right. The rookie waited a second, then snapped off a quick shot that hit Koskinen, then slowly slithered through him and into the back of the net, putting Montreal up by a goal midway through the first period.
The Canadiens threatened their own lead shortly afterward, with Phillip Danault taking a two-minute stop in the penalty box for interference. Connor McDavid, bafflingly, missed a clean chance, but a second penalty on Joel Armia also gave the Oilers a short crack at a two-man advantage. An incredible solo effort from Ben Chiarot to stop a pass then maul the puck-carrier allowed Montreal to kill off Armia's holding penatly, only for Chiarot to then fire the puck out of play for a third straight penalty.
An impressive nearly seven-minute stretch of penalty-killing came to an end without a goal against, thanks to some extremely strong work across the board, but with a big nod to Jake Evans and Paul Byron during the final stretch. The heroic showing from the penalty-killers ensured Montreal took its one-goal lead into the first intermission, thanks to Romanov's first career goal.
The second period started with the Canadiens' top line nearly doubling the advantage on an ill-timed Koskinen rebound. Kulak fired a puck on net, and it dribbled to the right of the Oilers' net, but Brendan Gallagher just missed the follow-up chance with Koskinen kicking out his pad to deny the Habs winger his first goal of the season.
The rookie goal-scorer put the Canadiens short-handed early into the period, being called for a hefty crosscheck into the back of Alex Chiasson. Some impressive speed from Evans and more timely clears fended off the Oilers for a fourth time, keeping the one-goal lead intact with just over 13 minutes left to play in the second period.
Danault managed to draw a call of his own shortly after the kill, sending Adam Larsson to the penalty box and Montreal to the power play. While the Habs generated a few looks, they didn't find a breakthrough, but were given another shot late in the period after dominating possession in the Oilers zone for several minutes. The two units had plenty of chances, including Tyler Toffoli alone in the slot, and Nick Suzuki just as the penalty expired, but it was Koskinen finally coming up with a big save to keep the Habs from adding to their lead.
A badly timed late hit from Gallagher on Darnell Nurse put the Habs back on the penalty kill, however a kick save, and sprawling cover by Allen, denied Edmonton a chance to tie the game.
Then, a somewhat dubious call on Connor McDavid put the Habs back on the power play with just under two minutes left to play in the period. Devin Shore got tangled up with Jeff Petry on the ensuing attack, taking down Koskinen at the same time as Shea Weber broke in for a chance on net. He followed his own rebound, then banked the shot in off of Koskinen's head as the Oilers goalie attempted to sort himself out. It was initially called no goal on the ice, but a bold challenge by Claude Julien forced the officials to reverse their call, giving Montreal a late two-goal lead.
While Chiasson nearly scored before the clock expired, his heavy shot clanged off the post, and the Canadiens went into the second intermission with a two goal lead and a heap of momentum behind them.
Montreal started the final period slowly chipping away at the clock and keeping the Oilers' big line quiet as best they could. Another cross-checking penalty, this time on Weber put Montreal short-handed for a sixth time with 16 minutes or so left to play. Again the rolling units of the Montreal penalty kill stymied the Oilers.
The penalty parade continued between the two clubs, with Larsson drilling Evans in the numbers, taking a two-minute penalty for interference just before the halfway mark of the final period. A massive pile up in the dying moments of the man advantage looked like it gave the Habs another goal, but a last-second whistle blew the play dead just as a Montreal stick chipped it past a sprawled Koskinen.
A seventh penalty by Montreal put the inept Oilers power play back on the ice, and Montreal took that personally. Petry poked the puck away in the slot, starting a two-on-one with Artturi Lehkonen and Danault, and the Finnish winger wired his first goal of the year under Koskinen's glove to put the Habs firmly in control of the game.
A late Habs power play allowed the Oilers to get on the board, as Shore poked a puck off Jonathan Drouin's stick, breaking in on Allen and rifling one by the Habs goalie. It allowed the Oilers a chance to also pull Koskinen, but they never got closer than two goals as Montreal saw out the end of the game without issue, winning 3-1.
Montreal continues the road trip, heading to Vancouver for a three-game stint with the Canucks, with a back-to-back on Wednesday and Thursday night, and a Saturday meeting to finish the week.
Gaudreau leads Flames to win over Canucks – TSN
CALGARY — A first-period rescue by Jacob Markstrom and offensive wizardry from Johnny Gaudreau propelled the Calgary Flames to Monday's 5-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks.
Gaudreau scored Calgary's first goal of the game and assisted on another in the second period after Markstrom turned away 15-of-16 shots in the first.
Mikael Backlund, Elias Lindholm, Mark Giordano and Rasmus Andersson with an empty-net goal also scored for the Flames (2-0-1).
Markstrom earned a second straight win over his former team with 25 saves.
"He did everything that you want a goalie to do," Flames head coach Geoff Ward said. "He kept us in and gave us a chance to win. In the big moments when we needed a big save, he made it."
Jake Virtanen and Tyler Myers replied for the Canucks (1-3-0), who played their fourth road game in six days. Thatcher Demko stopped 27 shots in the loss.
Markstrom, a Canuck for seven seasons before signing a six-year, US$36-million contract with Calgary in October, had posted a 32-save shutout in Calgary's 3-0 win over Vancouver on Saturday.
"Right now, he deserves the contract," Lindholm said.
Demko was pulled for an extra attacker with four minutes to play, and Vancouver went to work on a two-man advantage when Calgary's Andrew Mangiapane took a tripping minor at 16:56.
The visitors didn't produce another goal, however, and Andersson scored into an empty net with 55 seconds remaining.
Vancouver's Myers scored shorthanded at 13:15 of the third period.
Giordano teed up a blast from the top of the face-off circle that Demko couldn't get his glove on for a power-play goal at 6:40 of the third period.
Outplayed in the first period, Calgary's 20-3 margin in shots in the second was bolstered by four power-play chances and winning more draws in the face-off circle.
Lindholm stretched Calgary's lead to 3-1 just two seconds before the second-period buzzer. He one-timed Gaudreau's cross-ice feed past Demko during a Calgary two-man advantage.
The hosts led 2-1 by 13:30 when Backlund scored his first goal of the season. The Swedish centre rifled a rebound over Demko.
Gaudreau pulled the Flames even at 12:05 on a give-and-go with Sean Monahan and Dominik Simon providing a screen.
"You can see when he's feeling it a little bit and those are the nights when he can take a team on his back and carry us," Ward said of Gaudreau. "Tonight he was feeling it and you could see it just building. He's such a tremendous player. He's got a special skill set."
Canucks winger J.T. Miller returned from COVID-19 protocol that kept him out of Vancouver's lineup the first three games of the regular season, but defenceman Jordie Benn has yet to play.
The visitors outshot Calgary 16-4 and dominated the face-off circle in the first period, but led just 1-0 due to Markstrom's work.
The Flames goaltender turned away five shots on a Vancouver power play starting two and a half minutes after the opening faceoff.
"Our first period was maybe our best period of the year so far and we responded in the second not very well," Myers said. "We need to get more dialed in and a little more focused on the way we have to play to win.
"We can turn things around very quickly here. It's a mindset. We've got to buy in as a group for a full 60 and not just for 20 minutes."
Virtanen's long shot from the high boards deflected off Flames defenceman Juuso Valimaki and over Markstrom's shoulder at 10:17.
The Canucks head home after three straight road losses. Vancouver hosts the Montreal Canadiens in back-to-back games starting Wednesday.
The Canucks play 11 games in their first 18 days of an NHL regular season shortened and condensed because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
"Time to get going," Demko said. "Losing three in a row is not good enough for this team. Our expectations are higher than that."
Calgary, by contrast, has a five-day break before hosting the Toronto Maple Leafs on Sunday afternoon.
Notes: The Flames signed 30-year-old defenceman Mike Stone to a one-year, two-way contract Monday . . . Canucks defenceman Nate Schmidt played his 400th career NHL game Monday.
Maple Leafs' Andersen quells outside concern with stellar game vs. Jets – Sportsnet.ca
TORONTO — Call off the hounds.
Crazy as it might sound not even a full week into the NHL season, they had already started to gather outside Scotiabank Arena.
All it took was for Frederik Andersen and Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe to acknowledge that the goaltender was not at his best during Friday's loss in Ottawa for the whiff of controversy to waft through the air.
Presumably, now, that talk should disappear as quickly as it arrived. Andersen was rock solid during a 3-1 victory over the Winnipeg Jets that calmed the waters on a number of fronts.
"It was a much simpler game for Fred and he looked extremely confident and in control here tonight," said Keefe. "So that gives us confidence as a team and it should give him confidence, too, that whatever he has done to prepare from last game to this one, it benefitted him."
It had been an unusual 48 hours between starts: Andersen didn't dress at all for the second half of the back-to-back against the Senators, getting in extra work with goalie coach Steve Briere on Saturday morning before watching Jack Campbell play while Aaron Dell backed up.
That wiped his schedule clean of the typical game-day meetings plus the extra stretching and mental preparation the second goaltender goes through even when not likely to see any action.
"A little new thing we're trying," said Andersen. "I think it was good. … I got to stay at the hotel a little bit longer and just come for the game."
There's a decent chance it's a one-off after Dell got claimed by New Jersey from the waiver wire on Monday, leaving Michael Hutchinson to move up to Toronto's taxi squad as the No. 3 goaltending option.
That won't bother Keefe since he didn't think there was any magic in the plan.
All it did was buy his No. 1 guy more time to sharpen his game following training camp that included no exhibition games and a frantic charge towards the season. Still, it was reassuring to see Andersen confidently turn aside 27 Winnipeg shots, arguably the best of them against Mark Scheifele late in a first period where the Leafs controlled zone time but hadn't yet grabbed a lead.
"It was his best game, for sure, just the way that he tracked the puck," said Keefe. "He looked super calm in there. I think it's also not a coincidence that it was probably the easiest night he had in front of him tonight. You know we didn't give up very much at all and when we did there wasn't much by way of second chances in around the net.
"We did a much better job in that area."
There are a couple obvious reasons why Andersen's play is under such scrutiny. He's in a contract year and coming off the worst statistical season of his career, for starters. Plus the Leafs explored the goalie market for a replacement before bringing him back this fall.
But, to let you behind the media curtain, it's also because this has been a non-story for so long and the possibility of intrigue now exists.
Andersen has played 247 games for the Leafs since arriving here in 2016, with Curtis McElhinney next on the franchise's list during that period with 32 appearances. Campbell has seven games under his belt for the blue and white.
However, with huge expectations and an uncertain future beyond the summer, the tectonic plates are shifting beneath the surface. Any existing loyalties aren't likely to outlast a run of substandard performance.
And for an offensively-inclined team that has historically struggled to lock games down, you can't have a goalie fumbling away strong efforts like the one we saw against Winnipeg. That's where Andersen made some big strides. The Leafs controlled puck possession and the entirety of the second period and still found themselves in a tight 2-1 contest with 20 minutes to play.
"If anything, it made it harder for us in the third period," said Keefe. "I think hard is good for our team with where we need to grow."
Andersen is a stay-in-the-moment performer, the kind who would never let you know if he felt outside pressure. That doesn't mean it wasn't there.
He turned aside 12 third-period shots and took a second star turn when the buzzer sounded.
There will be more nights off for him than usual with a compressed schedule that includes four games in six days this week, but performances like this will quell the outside concern.
"Freddie's one of the best in the league," said Leafs captain John Tavares. "We've got so much faith in him. … Just being well sorted defensively without the puck and working to get it back will make life easy on him because we know he's going to make the saves when it's predictable and he's able to challenge and be aggressive and be the netminder that he is."

Ants detect scent of cancer in urine – research
Ants can sniff out cancer, say scientists (Paul Devienne/Sorbonne Paris Nord University in Paris/PA)
Ants can detect the scent of cancer in urine, scientists have found.
Several types of cancer have been found to alter urine smell but experts have, for the first time, found ants to have this capability.
In their findings, published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, they said these insects could be used as a cost-effective way to identify cancers in patients.
Study author Professor Patrizia d'Ettorre, of Sorbonne Paris Nord University in Paris, France, told the PA news agency: "Ants can be used as bio-detectors to discriminate healthy individuals from tumor-bearing ones.
"They are easy to train, learn fast, are very efficient and are not expensive to keep."
This research builds on a previous study by Prof d'Ettorre and her colleagues where they showed ants were able to "sniff out" human cancer cells grown in the lab.
For the current study, the researchers exposed 70 ants – belonging to the species known as Formica fusca – to urine samples from mice with, and without, tumours.
After three trials, the ants were able to tell the difference between the urine odour of healthy mice from that of tumour-bearing mice.
This is because ants have a very sensitive olfactory system, the researchers said.
Prof d'Ettorre told PA: "We trained them with associative learning to associate a given odour – cancer – with a reward and, after very few trials, they learned the association.
"We demonstrated that ants can discriminate the urine of healthy mice from the urine of tumour-bearing mice.
"This is more similar to a real-life situation than using cultured cancer cells.
"We were surprised by how efficient and reliable the ants are."
As part of the next steps, the researchers want to see if the ants can do the same for human urine.
Previous research has shown dogs can detect cancer from urine's smell after being trained to do so.
There are also electronic devices that can detect certain types of cancer – such as bladder, breast or prostate – from urine samples.
The human nose, however, cannot pick up the scent of cancer in urine.

Having bought my first house through Balgores 4/5 years ago, the gulf in class is evident from the offset - that is why I wouldn't have trusted anyone else selling my property.
Billy is in his position because - having dealt with numerous other agents - he is a class above. He delivers on what he says, when he says he will and kept me updated constantly from start to finish. This was even more so evident when out initial buyers decided to pull out and he went the extra mile to sell the property again within 9 days (and taking into account this was over Xmas, that's pretty impressive). If all agents were as helpful, dedicate and focused as him, the market would be an easier place to navigate. He is the only person I'd recommend to family an friends to use (as I have done on numerous occasions already) as in such a stressful part of life, he makes it that much easier. I cannot speak highly enough of him.
Suzanne also is a credit to the company - without her pushing the contracts through, I think I'd have gone mad. She is extremely helpful and reassuring when you are at the end of your patience dealing with numerous other agents/solicitors. As with Billy, I cannot thank/recommend her services enough.
Finally, this does extend to Dan (Dawes - mortgage broker too). He was extremely helpful, insightful and knowledgeable around the whole process and was always on hand with any questions I had (a fair few!).
Overall, I don't see why you would want to use anyone else to sell a house, not just purchase. Like most things in life, you get what you pay for - the service Balgores Hornchurch offer is second to none, starting from the top and filters its way down across all staff.
You pay for what you get - fully justified and I would not use anyone else.

Q: How do I properly position images in my css gallery? Hey this is my first ever question so I'm sorry if I get anything wrong.
I am trying to create a gallery using only HTML and CSS, so far I have got it all aligned and pretty much sorted. The problem is with the image enlarger on hover, when you hover over the enlarged image shows up on top of it's respective image but when you scroll down and hover over an image the enlarged image stays put and doesn't follow the picture.
I have tried playing about with the position property for both the image and the hovered image but I can't get it right. I still want the image to 'pop out' of the divs though.
I have the code pasted on the link below:
http://pastebin.com/fZxbKZEJ

A: Change the position: absolute; to position:fixed;. This will make the image popup relative to the view. Play with margin to get the alignment right.
For eg:
margin: 100px auto 0;

So,
.bigImage{
     display:none;
     position:fixed;
     height:310px;
     width:250px;
     margin:100px auto 0;
     border:2px solid #39F;
 }

If you Just want the popup to follow the original image, do this
.bigImage{
     display:none;
     position:relative;
     height:310px;
     width:250px;
     margin:-260px 0 0 -45px;
     border:2px solid #39F;
 }

BT do not know why I got the e-mail or the request for the faster fibre when it is not available in my Area ?????
Once again BT/Openreach screw-up! The new ultrafast router Hub 6XA suffers from the same major bug as the earlier models, namely it re-boots itself approx. every 2 weeks. The trouble is that when it does this it's 50/50 as to wether my youview BT TV box gets it's network connection back, this results in missed recordings if I don't spot it. I ditched my old Hub 6 because of this & I can't believe they haven't bothered to fix it in the new one! I now have to remember to re-boot it manually approx. once a week & then check my BT TV box to avoid problems. The only 3rd party G.Fast router at the moment seems to be from ASUS and is very buggy, it also currently has problems with multicast making it unsuitable for BT TV. I hope a few more manufacturers start making decent G.Fast routers soon.
Does anyone know what IP profile should be in place for the Ultrafast Fibre Plus FTTP product? I ordered Ultrafast Fibre Plus on the basis that (from press releases and advertising) it appears to be based on the Openreach 160/30 product (the uplink speed being the driver for my decision to order this particular product).
212.83 Mbps down and 20 Mbps up.
The test itself confirms a measured download speed in excess of 200Mbps and a 20Mbps upload. Is the Ultrafast Fibre Plus product just a rebrand of the old Infinity 3 product, with less clarity in the product description ( "average speed 145Mbp")?
When I got mine installed, I asked the engineer nicely and he left me one of the Huawei MT992 boxes - solid as a rock. I've since seen that there are some UK suppliers who will sell them as one-offs, but they wanted about £270 a piece.
Yep, I got a MT992 from the installer too, but before I invest in a router to go with it I'm waiting to hear if it too re-boots every 2 weeks (as it's been locked down with Openreach/BT firmware). Not easy to tell as they've disabled the GUI so I can't see the stats. A decent all-in-one solution would be a better outcome.
Looking at the Openreach availability checker, ultrafast (Gfast) has been available to order on my line for at least the past few weeks however this information doesn't appear to have cascaded to the BT website hence I'm unable to place an order for anything other than the "Superfast" broadband.
I've spoken with the service teams on the phone numbers that have been listed within this thread however I just get continuous mixed responses ranging from "you're not an existing BT customer so we cannot help unless you switch over to a lesser product in the interim" to "we'll contact Openreach to query the issue and get back in contact with you" which has thus far not produced any response.
Nobody appears to be able to advise why Openreach website lists Ultrafast "accepting orders" yet it's not available to order through BT/Zen or any of the other ISPs listed. I've written directly to Openreach on their form and they respond around a week later with the most useless response namely "we cannot comment on the Gfast trials".
Anyone else have any ideas on how I could go about placing an order or at the very least working ok why Openreach is saying "accepting orders" which clearly isn't the case?

AUSTIN, Texas (KFDA) – Legislation by District 87 Representative Four Price is on its way to the governor's desk. Both houses of the Texas Legislature overwhelmingly passed HB 1960, with the measure garnering 127 in favor to 14 opposed on Tuesday. The proposed bill would create a broadband council within the office of the governor. The council would discuss issues relating to access to broadband internet across the state, identifying barriers to access, as well as researching solutions to overcome them. Rep. Price said the bill would ensure to take feedback from diverse organizations, including those with interests in rural and agricultural areas. The council would then prepare a report of its findings and recommendations, to be presented to the governor, lieutenant governor and Texas legislature.

Hi all, the zip won't expand for me either (on a 2011 iMac) – it goes through the motions but then says 'No such file or directory'.
I love these textures! Keep 'em coming.
These are awesome guys! Can't wait to start designing :) Thank you.
I am not able to open the zip file . It is showing some error.

Missouri's Blunt and Clay see federal government shutdown differently
January 25, 2019 By Brian Hauswirth
Key members in Missouri's congressional delegation have different perspectives on the end of a 35-day federal government shutdown, and their perspectives are divided along party lines.
Congressman Lacy Clay (D-St. Louis)
President Donald Trump (R) announced Friday afternoon that a compromise deal had been reached to re-open the federal government, adding that furloughed federal employees would receive their back pay as soon as possible.
"I want to thank all of the incredible federal workers and their amazing families, who have shown such extraordinary devotion in the face of this recent hardship," Trump said Friday in the Rose Garden.
The "Washington Post" reports the U.S. Senate and House approved the plan by voice vote, and both chambers then adjourned. The newspaper says the plan will impact about 800,000 federal employees who had missed two consecutive paychecks.
A Democratic congressman who represents a large portion of the St. Louis region on Capitol Hill is blaming President Trump for the shutdown.
"For 35 days, the President inflicted needless suffering, pain and real damage on federal employees and our nation for absolutely no good reason. The Trump shutdown was never about border security. It was about the President's ego and his ridiculous campaign promise," U.S. Rep. William Lacy Clay (D) says in a statement. He represents St. Louis City and a large portion of St. Louis County.
Clay, who's in his tenth term on Capitol Hill and is a senior member of the state's delegation, also says that "real leaders don't build walls, they build bridges."
Congressman Clay had been calling on the president to open the government first, before negotiating about border security. About 100 laid-off and furloughed federal employees met Friday morning at Congressman Clay's St. Louis office on Gravois.
Clay says more than 12,000 federal employees in Missouri were impacted by the federal government shutdown.
U.S. Sen. Roy Blunt (R), sees it differently. Blunt, who chairs the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, Education and Related Agencies, says it's time for Democrats to come to the negotiating table.
"Shutdowns are bad politics and even worse government. Democrats say they're for stronger border security. It's time for them to get to the table. And then this process should be done through the normal structure. The president has a clear responsibility to secure the border and if Democrats cooperate we won't end up in a place where this is done through declaring an emergency. That precedent could create real problems in the future on other issues," Blunt says in a statement.
U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley (R), who was elected in November, tweeted Friday "After (the) President's announcement, Democrats now have chance to demonstrate that they are truly serious about securing the border. Democrat members of Congress have said over and over that they support border security. Now it's time to prove it."
U.S. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Kansas City, also tweeted Friday about the issue. "I'm pleased that the President has come to his senses and decided to reopen the government," Cleaver tweeted.
