The Calgary Airport Authority unveiled its new strategic direction and guiding vision statement, aptly referred to as the North Star.
The Authority's new direction will focus on elevating guest experiences with the goal of driving economic growth and prosperity for Calgary and Alberta. To embody this new direction, a refreshed visual identity for YYC Calgary International Airport was also unveiled.
"We create effortless and memorable airport experiences that reflect Calgary's legendary hospitality and our region's natural beauty." is the new North Star vision statement.
Inspired by the things that make Calgary and southern Alberta unique, The Calgary Airport Authority is creating a plan for the airport that truly reflects the city and region, and encouraging visitors to return. A new approach to retail and service offerings at YYC; improvements to processes within the airport; enhancements to the domestic terminal; and leveraging the entire campus development plan with the appropriate mix of businesses will all be factored into fueling Calgary's economic prosperity.

Help us provide hope to families this holiday by matching local needs with compassionate givers.
We are done accepting nominations for the 2018 Holiday season. We have made all our selections for our Christmas program at this time and will not be able to help any additional families that we have not already contacted. We look forward to receiving more nominations starting October 1st, 2019. Thank you for being a part of bringing HOPE to our community.
What if I do not know all of the answers to the questions on the Nomination Form?
Please complete the form to the best of your ability for the family you are nominating. Do not contact the family you are nominating if you do not have some of the information on the form, as we would like this to remain a surprise for them if they are chosen. We will get the remaining information if we choose the family. The most important thing is to make sure you give us details about their situation and a contact phone number.
I need help for my own family. Can I nominate myself?
We cannot accept families who complete this nomination form for their own family. Each family needs to be nominated by someone outside of their home who knows of their situation. This is our only rule.
I was contacted by someone who asked me to nominate them, but I'm not sure that they really are in need of the help. What should I do?
If you have been contacted by a family that requests you nominate them for assistance, please be aware that you are under no obligation to do so unless you feel like they legitimately need the help. We rely on our community to give us accurate and legitimate nominations. We take our donors financial commitments to HopeMatch very seriously and want to assure that the families who are truly in need are getting the help.
How will the family know if they are chosen? Will you let them know if they are not chosen?
Please be aware that we receive many nominations and are not able to help everyone who is nominated. We will contact the family directly if they are chosen to receive help by the second week of December. Due to the large number of nominations we receive, we are not not able to let families know if we are not able to help. This is also why we would like the nomination to remain a surprise.

Q: XSLT select all text I want to select all text and do a search and replace.
I want to turn all dashed into non-breaking dashes.
I am using this template for the search and replace part,
now I just need to run all text thru it..

A: I don't know what do you mean by "non-breaking dash", but here is a simple solution:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
 <xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>
 <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>

 <xsl:param name="vRep" select="'—'"/>

 <xsl:template match="node()|@*">
  <xsl:copy>
   <xsl:apply-templates select="node()|@*"/>
  </xsl:copy>
 </xsl:template>

 <xsl:template match="text()">
  <xsl:value-of select="translate(.,'-', $vRep)"/>
 </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

When this transformation is applied on any XML document, the result is the same document in which any '-' is replaced by whatever is specified as the value of the global parameter $vRep.
For example, when applied on this XML document:

 Hi - hi
 - - -
 <c>
   <d>Wow... - cool</d>
 </c>
 - - -

the result is:

  Hi — hi
 — — —
 <c><d>Wow... — cool</d></c>
 — — —

Explanation:  Use of the identity rule, overriden by a template matching any text node, and translating any '-' character in it to the character contained in $vRep -- by using the standard XPath function translate().

Here we are, the verbs of motion, probably the most feared topic of Russian grammar. If you have being studying Russian for some time, you may have already encountered the frightening verbs. But why are they so feared by students? The hardest part of learning these verbs consists in the fact that there are so many different categories, all describing distinct situations. They are handy once you get into the system and master it, but first you have to learn it, and in order to do that you will for sure go through these verbs more than a thousand times, trust me!
In Russian saying "I went" or "I will go" can be expressed in many different ways, as many qualities are taken into account. There are two main categories of the verbs. The first one divides them into monodirectional and multidirectional verbs. This means that some actions suggest you are taking a one-way journey and others that you are randomly roaming or going somewhere and coming back. The second one highlights the difference according to the way you are moving: if you are using some kind of mean of transport or just walking by foot.
But the best is yet to come! In normal life you will more likely find the verbs of motion together with different prefixes, which change partially the meaning of the verbs.
Learning all these forms is extremely important if you don't want Russians to wince while you're talking to them: use the wrong verb and you could end up saying something like "I went to Australia on foot".
It literally means "to go like butter/oil does". It refers to something working very easily, without any kind of difficulty as there is absolutely no friction. It can be compared to the English idiom "to be a piece of cake". We can say that Russian verbs of motion completely не идут как по маслу.
"To go on a mountain". It portrays a situation of success, when someone managed to obtain the best outcome. You can пойти в гору for example at work, when you are able to complete a hard task very well.
"To meet somebody halfway". Finding a solution that can fit the needs of both the people speaking. This phrase could come handy if your Russian teacher gives you a lot of homework over the weekend and you were thinking about going on a trip somewhere instead.
"Beat around the bush". To talk about something for a long time without coming to the main point, without giving a clear answer.
The literal meaning is "ride as a hare". Funny, isn't it? The actual meaning is "being a free-rider", "dodge the fare". Probably the meaning is linked to the fact that a stowaway passenger is afraid of being fined and shakes like a hare. The expression originated under the influence of the French voyager en lapin (travel like a rabbit). Do not be amazed if you hear a controller saying "я вижу твои уши" (I see your ears), it doesn't mean he thinks you are some kind of animal with ears, but just that you are on the bus without a ticket!
"Go with/against the flow". Doing what everybody does or, on the contrary, being original. It's interesting that in Russia people do not say "being the black sheep", but "being the white crow" (белая ворона).
"To lead by the nose". To deceive, delude, mislead someone, to make promises and not keep them. This idiom exists in similar ways in many different European languages as well. The difference is that this phrase in Russian refers to a usual tendency or behavior, it refers to something that happens regularly or for a long period of time. So, if we want to say that it happened just once there's another specific idiom "обвести вокруг пальза".
"Mind other people's business". Have you ever noticed an old Russian babushka staring from her house window? Sticking one's nose in other people's affairs is something that is not seen as a good thing in any country, in Russia too. In Italy we say that a person who minds his own business, will live for a hundred years.
Hi! I'm Lucrezia and I will be an intern at Liden & Denz until the end of September and I am ready to share my experience in Saint Petersburg with you!

In this file photo, used cars are displayed on a sales lot on June 9, 2011 in Daly City, California.
Karina Dorado's trachea was punctured by shrapnel from an inflator in an otherwise minor crash in Las Vegas on March 3. She was rushed to a trauma center, where surgeons removed pieces that damaged her vocal cords. She is still being treated for neck injuries.
Dorado, 18, is among nearly 200 people injured or killed by the inflators, which can explode when the chemical propellant inside deteriorates. What's different about her case is how the inflator wound up in her 2002 Honda Accord in the first place.
Dorado's father, Jose, bought the car for her in March of last year so she could get to and from her job at a customer service call center, attorneys for the family said Wednesday. The family did not know the car's history, including that it had been wrecked in Phoenix and declared a total loss by an insurance company in 2015, the attorneys said.
Engineers from Honda inspected Dorado's car after the crash and traced the serial number from the blown-apart inflator to a 2001 Accord, which had been covered by a recall but never had the inflator replaced.
It's perfectly legal under federal law for air bag assemblies or other parts subject to recall to be pulled out of wrecked cars and sold by junkyards to repair shops that may not even know the danger.
"People are not going to know until it's too late that they have a defective Takata air bag," he said.
"It's a tragedy that shouldn't have happened," said Billie-Marie Morrison, another family attorney. "You would think in today's age with communication technology these types of things should not be allowed to happen."
The federal government has no authority over used car sales and cannot stop air bags from being resold, a NHTSA spokeswoman said. The American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators said it knows of no states that prohibit salvaged parts from being reused, though some require parts to be inspected to make sure they aren't stolen.
Honda's Martin said the automaker has a program to buy up air bags made by Takata. In the past few years it has purchased 60,000 to take them out of circulation, he said.
Karina Dorado still has a hole in her trachea that is covered by a collar and will have to be repaired later, Morrison said. She is starting to get her voice back, but it's very raspy and she will probably need speech therapy, the lawyer said.

Cedar Rapids Flood Levee Construction to Impact Downtown Parking
It's hard to believe it's been nearly 12 years since the city of Cedar Rapids was devasted by flooding in June of 2008. As Cedar Rapids continues to build flood protection against a repeat event, dams bursting in Michigan this week remind us of the power, danger, and cost of floodwaters.
In Cedar Rapids, work will begin next week on what's called the Lot 44 Levee. Lot 44 is the large parking area that the levee will border, stretching from 9th Avenue to 12th Avenue SE, running parallel to 2nd Street. The construction of the levee, which is expected to be finishing sometime in the spring of 2021, will result in a large portion of Lot 44 being closed to parking. The graphic below shows the two areas that will remain open, with everything in orange closed.
That's not the only flood control project going on in Cedar Rapids. An amphitheatre floodwall is under construction along the banks of the Cedar River, on the city's west side. The flood wall is being built to the flood volume of the 2008 flood. It also has a restroom facility and event storage incorporated into it. That floodwall project, announced nearly a year ago, started earlier this month. It's expected to be finished in May of 2021, according to the city.
Work started two months ago on a roller gate at 16th Avenue SE. The project has closed the 16th Avenue Bridge, likely until this fall when it is expected to be finished. The gate will take 45 minutes to close, according to the city, and will protect the area to the 2008 flood volume.
Construction on removable flood gates at 3rd Avenue SE are expected to begin in September of 2020. They also will protect that part of the city to the flood volume of 2008 and would be deployed when the river reaches 22 feet.

Still I Rise by Dr Maya Angelou
Tala 'o mate kuo 'aonga ma'a Tonga written and composed by Manase Lua
Tonga's Emancipation Day
HAPPY EMANCIPATION DAY TONGA!
Here in New Zealand, today is marked as a public holiday for the celebration of Britain's Queen Elizabeth's Diamond Jubilee. Whilst, in the Kingdom of Tonga, June 4th is marked a national holiday in celebration of Tonga's full independence from Britain. On this date in 1862, King George Tupou I (pictured on the left) abolished the system of serfdom in Kingdom of Tonga and today Tonga celebrates 150 years of emancipation!
I am a New Zealand born Tongan and in celebration of Tonga's Emancipation Day, I have selected a song that was written and performed by Three Houses Down entitled Keep Your Culture. This band consists of Tongan and Samoan members who reside in Auckland, New Zealand. As featured below, the music video for Keep Your Culture was filmed in the Northern terrority of the North Island of New Zealand on the property of a Marae (a traditional Maori meeting house). The founding members of this band, Robert Pome'e, Sione Pome'e, Charlie Pome'e and Lisiate Langi, are my family members. It has been a joy to witness the vision behind the formation of the band flourish into what it is today. What a journey so far! What inspirations!
In addition, here is a thought provoking reflection that was written about Tonga's Emancipation Day by my cousin 'Ofa Guttenbeil-Likiliki. 'Ofa, a New Zealand born Tongan is now living in the Kingdom of Tonga along with her family. Currently, 'Ofa is the Director of the Women and Children Crisis Centre (WCCC) in the Kingdom of Tonga. She is an inspirational Tongan woman indeed! I hope that you enjoy her following reflection:
"I had a great conversation with Nasili this morning about Emancipation Day – as a result I put my thoughts together for this short refelction….
Today I am taken aback with a hard-hitting reminder of just how proud every Tongan should be of our Emancipation, hence the development of our Constitution. For example, I had always taken for granted that our Constitution had never been replaced or challenged. I was surprised to discover that for a short period during the reign of King George Tupou II, the 1900 Treaty (and its 1905 Supplement) had more authority then the 'then' 25 year old Constitution. This could have taken a different course for Tonga if it had not been for the late Queen Salote Tupou III who successfully reinstalled the Constitution's supremacy during her reign.
Of course, had not King George Tupou I taken a leap of faith in developing the Vava'u Codes and the 1862 Code and then eventually the 1875 Constitution – Tonga could have easily been colonized like the rest of her Pacific Island neighbours. What has caused me to step back, pause and celebrate Our Emancipation, Our Constitution is that it was groundbreaking for its time – to have core principles of Human Rights embedded right from the its inception. This in light of the fact that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was established 73 years after.
With this in mind as I reflect on which has been more applicable to Tonga's Constitutional Monarchy and her passage over the last 150 years, has it represented stability? I would say definitely! particularly at the time of its inception where many countries throughout the Pacific were undergoing colonization. When you consider that 6 Monarchs have survived through 150 years of political history, I guess you could agree that stability has in fact run its due course.
Fairness?, Well you know the irony here is that the main thinking behind fairness is logically linked to a Constitutional Democracy. But after going through the literature review on Tonga's Constitution, I may beg to differ here, if I may.
First of all, I do agree that that there are loop holes in the Tongan Constitution and in a large part it has to do with unfairness. For example, women are still not able to register property (to own) and Discrimination is only on the grounds of class, race, ethnicity and religion. It still does not recognize gender. But having said that, with the new found appreciation that I have acquired, I believe that the Monarchy (with its absolute powers) have also made huge watershed transformations – that I guess you could classify as turning things from unfair to being more fair – a few examples;
• King George Tupou I : 1875 – Constitution was promulgated: most significant was the Declaration of Freedom granting every Tongan subject freedom from slavery
• Queen Salote Tupou III : 1951 – granting women the right to vote and stand as candidates in the general elections. She was also instrumental in amending the land hereditary laws to allow a female who had no brother to register her parents land to her first born son.
• King George Tupou V : 2008 – relinquishing his monarchical powers in the running of government and parliament to allow a more democratic form of government
The Constitution itself has also ensured to protect fundamental freedoms, despite the absolute powers of the Monarchy (and this has been helped by having an independent judiciary). For example, the amendments made to Clause 7 of the Constitution (by cabinet and passed three times by the then Legislative Assembly) to restrict the powers of the media was held by the Supreme Court to be unconstitutional as it conflicted with the laws of liberty.
So, I would like to think that with the examples I have given that it almost mirrors the thinkings of Aristotle and Plato on the ideal form of government! Funny isn't it!
Reflecting on our history of Emancipation and the development of our Constitution has given me a better appreciation and respect for the Tongan Constitution: the complexities of its development, how it had initiated groundbreaking rules, and its commitment to liberty. Unfortunately – respect can be interpreted negatively meaning to 'preserve as is with no or little change.' But I think I have shared some pretty good examples of how despite achieving emancipation and a ground breaking constitution that is now 137 years old, major changes have occurred and Citizens of Tonga need to celebrate these changes and continue in the same spirit that they were made.
All citizens of Tonga need to take a more active ownership of the Constitution and not just simply acknowledge it. Everything that we do as a nation is reflected in the Constitution. We are free to write and express our opinions, that we have the right to be heard in a court of law, that we are free to assemble and practice our religions, that we are free to stand as candidates and vote (the list goes on……)
I am indeed proud of Emancipation Day today and its 150 year old journey…..HAPPY EMANCIPATION DAY TO ALL TONGANS HERE AND ABROAD….

Hi Limiteti,
Aww I'm glad that you have read this post. My perspective was merely an introduction. I'm grateful that my cousin 'Ofa Guttenbeil-Likiliki gave her reflection for us all to ponder on. Thanks once again for visiting my blog. I truly appreciate it.

According to my own knowledge of the meaning of the Emancipation Day, it was a milestone commermoration for the sourendering of the king's extreme authority over commoner's properties, household's and even their own life. Tratitionally, commoner's did not have any soul or right, pretty much like the animals that they could be killed for any cause or wishes of the chief's or the king.

The Dreamland Supper Club is not far off Highway 2 when heading east out of Superior, Wisc. The current owners, Dan and Terri Patterson have had the place for 19 years. Dan runs the front of the house and bar while Terri is the chef in the kitchen. It is only open for dinner and has a good flashing bulb and neon sign signaling you to turn in. You enter into the large dining room and the good sized bar is to your right. Most people seemed to be having their cocktails at the table rather than in the bar, so we followed their lead. The carpeted dining room has well spaced tables covered with an oil cloth set with paper placemats. A cloth napkin stuffed with flatware is at each place. The place is filled with paintings and one large mural of dogsleds in winter. Half walls divide the room and the open spaces are decorated with artificial ivy. The lights are lowered, music is in the background and the ceiling is loaded with stars and glitter – a real dreamland-like affect. They are open Thursday through Sunday and in addition to the regular menu have a special offered every night.
We started our meal with a martini, which was made properly and tasty enough to order seconds.
All the meals are 4 courses and start with a supper club tradition, a relish tray. It also comes with breadsticks and a variety of crackers. The relish tray contained raw vegetables, cottage cheese, pickled herring, bean relish and cabbage relish. The two relishes are made in house and were quite tasty. The raw vegetables included carrots, celery, radish, peppers, olives and pickles. It was all nice and good to snack on with drinks. At the same time our order of Beer Battered Onion Rings arrived and they were crisp and nice with some good onion flavor, but overall would only rate average. The bread sticks were soft rather than the crisp thin variety. They came with packets of real butter and made a nice companion to the relish tray. There were a good number of cracker types and some crisp breadsticks in there if you desired.
Next course is soup or juice. We chose soup and the nights' choices were chicken and dumpling or tomato basil. The tomato basil was light and loaded with basil. It was served warm and was a nice rendition.
Third course was salad or coleslaw and we both chose salad. The nice mix of greens, onion, cucumber and tomato came with a choice of dressings – Blue Cheese, French, Ranch and Thousand Island. The French was a bit sweet, the Ranch had a bit of tartness and the Blue Cheese had mild lumps of blue cheese in a traditional creamy base. It was my choice and did a nice job of coating the salad and binding it together.
For our main course we had one of their specialties, King Cut Prime AuJus, a 20 ounce bone in prime rib of beef. It was cooked, as requested, nicely rare and served surrounded by drippings from the meat. It was tender and had a good amount of beef flavor. With your plate you also get a choice of oven brown potatoes, fries, au gratin hash browns or vegetable medley. I chose the cheesy hash browns and they came with the cheese mixed in with the hasbrowns and then browned in the oven. It was a fun new way to combine these ingredients and surprisingly un-greasy. It was quite good. The oven brown potato is a baked potato cut and then deep fried. It was not as crispy as I'd like but again, a nice change to the regular options.
For dessert we had fried cookie dough with ice cream and cookie dough sauce. It was cookie dough from peanut butter cookies which was wrapped in their special coating mix (a ball invented by owner Dan) that is on their deep fried turkey, another one of their specialties . It had a good amount of texture between the crisp and the gooey and then the creaminess of the ice cream – it was totally sweet and wonderful. A great way to end a fun dining experience. Check this place out – all the people are super welcoming and friendly.
This place looks good for any kind of food one could want, great blog, as always, Helen!

Vive tracker out of stock.
It say's vive tracker is out of stock for the netherlands, does anyone know when it is instock again or if there is anywhere else i can buy it.
Re: Vive tracker out of stock.
We don't have an ETA on restocking for the tracker in the EU region at this time. As far as where else to get it, the only place I know it's available is the US Vive store and there are some Amazon bundles in the US region that also include it.
all i found is that it's out of stock in the US too. not even Amazon has any vive full body trackers. just this sketchy site that over charges them.
@cupcake_crusade, We'll have an update on tracker availability very soon - avoid the resellers as they're indeed sketchy.
Still out of stock. Any updates? Are we talking SXSW soon? GDC early soon? GDC late soon?

In a form, I need a DIV with some css classes wrapped around a form element.
How can I do this. It doesn't work if I add a HTML field before and after each form element, because that is also wrapped by a li class.
. Try and see what happen.
Okay, as a request for future releases: It would be great to have another "html" field which can add custom html code without any DIVs around it.
Thank you for your nice idea. I will forward this issue to our developer team. Hope they will implement this feature in near future.

I am not immune to indulging in nostalgia, as my recent lament to regional newspapers' vanishing printing presses shows.
So I will cut Pat Prentice a little slack for his tribute to his friend and colleague David Watts.
It is comforting to wallow in the past, especially when remembering an old pal.
Unfortunately, Pat's eulogy strayed from fondly remembered times into a bit of a dig at today's journalists. It received an indignant riposte from my fellow blogger Paul Wiltshire.
Young reporters, in particular, do not deserve unfavourable comparisons with those of a generation ago.
I marvel at their ability to report live for an online audience while also taking notes for a print version of the same story, all the while shooting stills and video and distributing their work via social media.
Back at the office they are required to caption their photos, write headlines, upload to the web, add links, galleries, social media embeds and maps.
It is a formidable job spec, and by and large it is handled with skill, enthusiasm and good humour.
I do, though, share Pat's admiration for the craft of sub-editors (I was, ahem, one myself).
Regional newspapers are dispensing with them, and their precious skills.
I do hope some of them find roles in the institutions involved in the training of journalists. They have much to offer.

I am so glad that this book was from Kaleb's point of view. It made it different since he feels everyone's emotions. I honestly felt bad for him at points in the book because he felt that his dad chose Michael over him. But I was really happy about the relationships that got closer throughout this book. Not just with Kaleb but with everyone else.
I don't want to give away too much because this book doesn't come out until June 12th but I was lucky to get it from Netgalley beforehand. In this story Kaleb and everyone is giving an ultimatum that shows everyone that Chronos is very serious about finding Jack. I won't tell you what Chronos is yet because it is all explained in the book.
You get to know more about Emerson's best friend, Lily. You get to see more of Nate, Dune and Ava. You get to see a whole other side to Ava actually and you learn that she isn't as mean as she wanted you to believe. Dune shows more of his ability and Nate has his moments of comedic relief.
There isn't much time travelling in this book but that is okay because you get more than enough of the rips throughout the book. And sometimes they are very, very real.

Three members of the Nevada National Guard shot in a rampage at an IHOP restaurant were remembered by their colleagues Sunday who offered tributes of the victims' selflessness, humor and sense of duty.
As Nevada's capital city tries to come to grips with a deadly shooting attack, investigators Thursday turned their attention to the gunman described as quiet and friendly but who had a troubled past with mental health issues that required medication.
Dozens of 911 calls made from in and around a Nevada IHOP where a deadly shooting rampage took place detail a frantic scene, as witnesses described the gunman and dispatchers tried to determine if more than one person was involved.
A gunman wielding an AK-47 opened fire on a table of uniformed National Guard members at an IHOP restaurant on Tuesday in an outburst of violence that killed four people, wounded eight others and put Nevada's capital city on high alert. Five Nevada National Guard troops sitting together at the back of the restaurant were shot - two of them fatally. Another woman was also killed, and the gunman, 32-year-old Eduardo Sencion of Carson City, shot himself in the head and died at a hospital.

I'd like to tell you something about the best football club you could — to my mind — find in the world. This club is called Hansa Rostock!
When you're Fan of this club it's not just about winning or losing, there is a whole lot more! Where I'm from Hansa Rostock is a part of your life! This club accompanies you every day. Most people here would give the shirt off their back for Hansa. Hansa Rostock stands for home, love and passion!
Not many here could imagine a life without Hansa Rostock. But exactly this is the problem. Hansa Rostock has got debts, debts they're not able to handle alone. The reason for these debts is missmanagement. Hansa Rostock played in the "Bundesliga" (the premiere league of Germany) 12 years ago. But Hansa was not able to effort the funds for this league, because it's a very small club. They started spending money they didn't have. In Addition to that there had been some poor transfers, so they had to remargin a lot of taxes. The people who made these mistakes buzzed of very quickly. Now, 12 years later, Hansa Rostock has to come to terms with the past. Because they can't handle all this problems alone, they need financial aid. That's why they asked the city Rostock for help. Everybody thought they would say "YES" immediately — but they didn't. That's why my lovely football club could simply have disappeared on the 9th of May. No one is able to describe the feelings we had because of this fact. We would lose everything- our traditions, memories, heros…and presumably a part of our life! I don't want to hear anyone say: "For god sake, who's Hansa Rostock?" What I want to hear is: "Hansa Rostock? You're the guys from the Baltic Sea, aren't you?" It's not just me that thinks this way. That's why the fans of Hansa started a campaign called "Sag JA zum FCH!" ("say YES to the FCH").
– Many of the inhabitants of Rostock would lose their source of love and passion.
– Hansa is important economically. Every year they pay millions in taxes.
– Hansa Rostock is a popular label of Rostock and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. That means Hansa is an important marketing factor for the region.
Hansa Rostock belongs clearly to the soul of Rostock and the people living here in a special way. It's hard to describe the love a lot of people do have for Hansa Rostock. You can get a tiny clue of it if you visit the "Ostseestadion" and watch a game. Since 2007 the official name of the stadium hasn't been "Ostseestadion" anymore. In the year 2007 Hansa Rostock had to sell the name of the stadium because they needed the money. That's why the official name is now "DKB-Arena". Nevertheless, nearly everyone here calls it "Ostseestadion" , which means "Baltic Sea Stadium". That means the name of the stadium is connected to the region as well. To my mind, it's because of traditions and habits. Form 1954 till 2007 people had been used to the name "Ostseestadion". Hansa Rostock is a traditional club. That's why no one here will ever get used to "DKB-Arena". Even on the street signs you can still find the name "Ostseestadion".
I'm sure you won't regret visiting the "Ostseestadion"! Or see all the big pictures by following the campaign, if you're not able to come to see a match.
← Moor and ghosts – scared or interested?
I am visiting Rostock with work. I hope to watch your club play. I have sympathy with Hans problem as my club is Plymouth Angle in English 3rd division. We also had mismanagement that led to selling all our players. Now We have come through this and believe we may start to recover. the one noticeable thing is supporter loyalty and belief in the club. this process takes time but I am sure with this attitude you will prosper again in the leagues. I note Plymouth is also had a port with many similarities. good luck from a true green Pilgrim.

Hi , I been watching you all the time. You have a very impressive article. You should continue this way. I like your post. I want to share my own blog. Can I share?


Many people wonder about the difference between internet and www. Today we are presenting a table of differences and a thorough discussion on www vs. internet. Read this article and you will understand everything about the world wide web and its supporting network.
Most of the people use the words Internet and WWW interchangeably. In fact, they don't see any difference between the two. Only some of the curious folks ask about the difference between Internet and WWW. They wonder if both these things are same? If not, then what are the differences between the two? The quick answer is that technically Internet and WWW are not the same things. And today we will understand the major differences between these two terms.
Internet is a massive network of networks. It is essentially an interconnection between millions of smaller computer networks scattered around the globe. These networks are connected with each other by the means of overground cables, underground cables, satellite links and sub-oceanic cables etc.
The word "Internet" actually refers to all the hardware infrastructure present in the network. Such hardware includes computer systems, routers, cables, bridges, servers, cellular towers, satellites and other pieces.
All these pieces of hardware operate under the Internet Protocol (IP). Different computing devices in the Internet are identified by their IP addresses.
In the course of life, when people say "Internet", most of the time they actually refer to the World Wide Web or the WWW. The www is the collection of all the information that is available in the Internet. So, all the text, images, audio, videos online — all this forms the www. Most of this information is accessed through websites and we identify websites by their domain names. There is huge amount of information available in the www. Only a tiny part of this information is searchable through popular search engines like Google. However, most of the information lies in the Deep Web and Dark Web.
WWW uses http protocol to access the information from various servers. Information is sent as web pages which are organized in the form of websites. Various web pages are interlinked with each other through hyperlinks. Web pages and other pieces of information in WWW are identified by their Uniform Resource Locator (URL) address.
If you want to have an idea about how much information is available in the WWW, you can read our articles on the massiveness of the Internet, YouTube and Facebook.
The following table lists the major differences between the two terms.
Nature of Internet is hardware. Nature of www is software.
These were some of the major differences between Internet and WWW. We hope this article was useful for you. Please feel free to comment if you have any question or suggestions for this article. We will try our best to assist you. Thank you for using TechWelkin!
Almost every graduation degree consists such things but people have adopted those simple meanings.
For one in every three persons, the Internet is same as of WWW.
World Wide Web is a far way than the Internet. You brought a simple yet necessary point.

Om No Duty to Retreat
In 1865, Wild Bill Hickok killed Dave Tutt in a Missouri public square in the West's first notable "walkdown." One hundred and twenty-nine years later, Bernhard Goetz shot four threatening young men in a New York subway car. Apart from gunfire, what could the two events possibly have in common? Goetz, writes Richard Maxwell Brown, was acquitted of wrongdoing in the spirit of a uniquely American view of self-defense, a view forged in frontier gunfights like Hickok's. When faced with a deadly threat, we have the right to stand our ground and fight. We have no duty to retreat. No Duty to Retreat offers an engrossing account of how this idea of self-defense emerged, focusing in particular on the gunfights of the frontier and their impact on our legal traditions. The right to stand one's ground, Brown tells us, appeared relatively recently. Under English common law, the threatened party had a legal duty to retreat "to the wall" before fighting back. But from the nineteenth century on, such authorities as Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes rejected this doctrine as unsuited to both the American mind and the age of firearms. Brown sketches the influence of frontier violence, demonstrating the tremendous impact of the famous gunmen and the prevalence of what he calls "grassroots gunfighters"--unsung men who resorted to their guns at a moment's notice. These duels, ambushes, and firefights, he writes, were more than personal vendettas: They were part of a "Western Civil War of Incorporation," pitting gunmen--usually Republicans and Unionists, who sided with the expanding banks, railroads, and businesses--against cowboys and independent farmers, who were often Democrats sympathizing with the Confederacy. Brown examines the gunfight near the O.K. Corral in this light, showing how it was a climax of tensions between Tombstone's Republican businessmen (represented by Wyatt Earp) and the county's cowboys (led by the Clantons and McLaurys). He also looks at such lesser-known battles as the Mussel Slough war, in which resisting farmers, imbued with the no-retreat ethic, fought for their independent lifestyle against encroaching rail barons. This Civil War of Incorporation fed the violence of the West and reinforced the legal doctrine of "no duty to retreat."The frontier days are long past, but Brown shows how the ethic of no retreat continues to shape everything from our entertainment to our foreign policy (including President Bush's "line drawn in the sand") to our politics to cases like that of Bernhard Goetz. Though challenged as never before by the values of peace and social activism, it remains a central theme in American thought and character.

Metal roofing is on top of trends in 2018, but there are many good reasons as to why more Australians are making the decision to choose metal roofing options.
Making a great first impression is important to all of us, and the first impression of any project is no exception. Whether it be a home, business or another dwelling, a good looking, modern exterior can dramatically increase its market value. Your choice of roofing will also impact the inside performance of your property.
– As metal is a lightweight material, it allows for an easy installation.
– Metal roofing is extremely durable. The life expectancy of metal is extremely large and it has been tested to endure the harsh weather conditions of the Australian landscape.
– If your metal roof reflects the sun's heat and UV rays, it will dramatically improve the energy efficiency of your building.
– All metal roofs come with the option to install different thicknesses of insulation. This helps to raise the energy rating and "R" value of the overall property to make it a more sustainable, greener place to live.
– Metal is one of the most sustainable roofing options as it is 100% recyclable.
– Metal is a safe and reliable roofing option as it is resistant to fire, moisture, mildew, and pests such as termites.
– They require little to no maintenance.
While the functional benefits of choosing a metal roof have played a significant role in the growth of popularity, the wide range of styles and colour options have also encouraged this roofing trend in 2018.
Colorbond roofing is the most advantageous and attractive metal roofing option not only because it is available in a wide selection of 22 colours, including its new matt range of finishes, but because it can complement other design choices for the exterior. Colorbond can create a cohesive consistency with fencing, gutters, and roofing.
A Colorbond roof can also improve the thermal efficiency of a building through its specialised coating technology. This coating provides anti-corrosion properties that keep a building safe as well as structurally secure.
In recent years, many people have made the shift to opt for more environmentally conscious and sustainable materials in their buildings and choosing a sustainable and energy efficient metal roof can help you tick that box.
It's no secret that we are all looking for ways to save money on heating bills, cooling bills and conserve our water so it's important to remember that your roof choice plays a key role in achieving these energy efficiency goals.
Colorbond metal profiles have been specially coated with an innovative "thermatch" technology which allows for the material to reflect the sun and heat, keeping the whole building cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter months. The durability of Colorbond outperforms its rivals as it can withstand any weather, no matter how harsh the conditions.
Not only does Colorbond have an unmatched longevity, it is also completely recyclable and is less likely to end up in a landfill. If you are an environmentally conscious even a little bit, there is no better green option than Colorbond steel in terms of sustainability and efficiency.
Now more than ever, Australian's are taking a great deal of pride in the exteriors of their properties. They are coordinating the features to make a modern clean look, from the fencing to the gutters and including choosing a complimentary roof.
Many new builds and refurbishments are being influenced by their location. In rural landscapes of Australia, the popular roofs are ones that blend in with their rustic and neutral and earthy surroundings. Dwellings by the beach are choosing classic white and grey colour palettes that are reminiscent of upscale holiday destinations, such as Victoria's Mornington Penninsula.
If you are considering building from scratch, are onto your next building project or improving any property's curb appeal to increase a market value, replacing your roof to Colorbond steel is the most effective way to create a lasting impact.
KC Roof Plumbing have over 20 years of industry experience and knowledge specialising in high-end residential projects, re-roofing, building extensions and modular roofing using modern Colorbond metal roof materials. Their professional team can help you to find a custom solution to your roofing needs that can perfectly match your project, of any size.
Choosing the most reputable plumbing company in Melbourne, KC Plumbing can help you to achieve a safe, secure and on point roof. Call the team for a chat about your plans on 1300 KC ROOF (1300 527 663).

This mom gave birth in the car and her 10-year-old son's video went viral
Somehow mom managed to keep her cool as she delivered her own baby, with two other kids crying in the back and a third playing videographer. Check out the viral video!
By Natalie Harmsen
It's a well-known fact that not every birth goes according to plan and the signs of labour can be different for everyone.
Nevada mom Rudia Napier discovered this first-hand while en route to Henderson Hospital for her final checkup, when her labour came on fast and furious—in the car! Luckily, her 10-year-old son Jayden was on hand in the backseat with Napier's other two kids to capture the wild moment on video, filming all of the astonishingly fast five-minute birth.
In the viral video, Napier's husband, Michael Addison, can be heard asking her to hold in the baby as he explains that they're almost at the hospital. Her children begin to cry, but the supermom manages to comfort them while putting her feet on the dashboard in pain. If this isn't stressful enough, her kids then start screaming! But instead of entering full-blown panic mode, Napier keeps her cool and focuses on her breathing.
When it becomes clear that baby doesn't want to wait, Addison zooms along a busy street blasting the horn, holding Napier's leg up AND keeping his eyes on the road. Napier pushes and pushes until she eventually pulls out her baby girl, Jolee, like a pro—all while laying down in the passenger seat!
Take a look at the video (beware, it can be stressful to watch):
The video, which Addison posted to Facebook, has been viewed over 10 million times, with many users congratulating the couple and praising Jayden's videography skills.
Addison wrote on the Facebook post: "Delivering a baby while driving AND with 3 crying kids in the back seat... Can I get a MVP or something!"
While many babies have been born in cars, the video shows the roller-coaster of Napier doing the emotional labour of calming her crying kids while also in physical labour. It's safe to say we think she's the real MVP!
"I've never been through anything like that in my life," Napier told KVVU-TV. "And I've done some crazy stuff."

I was watching Food Network and they said this place offers a gluten-free pizza crust.
I have not personally, but someone else mentioned that they use spelt in their supposedly "gluten-free" pizza crust.
On the show they said she had a spelt crust, yes, but also a rice flour crust and a whole wheat one. On her menu the rice flour one is not listed. Maybe she got ride of it.


Seeing that tiny sign for "Free WiFi" at a bookstore or coffee shop is always a little thrilling, especially if you need to get some work done online. But you may be paying the price when it comes to your Internet security.
As great as unsecured web access is, it can be a real problem if you want to keep your computer and its information safe. Unsecured access means anyone can be on the network. And it also means anyone can be snooping into what you're doing online.
• Vary your passwords. One of the most common security breaches happens when someone discovers a password that you use online. Many people reuse passwords on all or many of their accounts, which means one stolen password may place a lot of things at risk. Don't use the same password for Facebook as you use for your bank account, and try to change your passwords once or twice a year, just in case.
• Stay on secure sites. Some websites are secured with a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), which you can tell by the web address; it should say "https" instead of "http." That extra letter means those sites are encrypting your information, such as credit card numbers and your user ID and password, so hackers can't get access to them. If you're not on a secure site, definitely don't enter sensitive information.
• Double-check the WiFi network. This is a decidedly low-tech form of protection, but make sure the WiFi network you connect to is the one the coffee shop offers. Sometimes hackers will set up similarly named networks that reach the same spot in the hopes patrons will confuse them. Using the hacker's network makes it easier for him or her to steal your information while your computer is connected. You may feel foolish asking the barista for the WiFi connection's name, but it's worth it.

Hope you're doing well today!
It's an outfit that you can wear to go out. However, if you just switch the high heels for a pair of sneakers (your Stan Smith will go perfectly with it!), you can wear this combo during the day and you will be super comfy!
I've always thought that because I was small (1m59), I couldn't wear large and ¾ trousers. But hey, I was wrong!!! Small girls can wear these types of trousers 🙂 I've got this one from Zara. I love the material of it: a navy-blue satin.
To break the dressed-side of the outfit, I was wearing a loose pink-powder jumper with a striped shirt under and a loose white coat –I love mixing every type of clothes and especially the ones we would never think would go together! What do you think of it ?!
Now, let's talk about the shoes and my favourite part of the outfit: the sparkling socks –I can already imagine my sister looking at these pics and thinking "Sarah Sarah Sarah, your tastes are super weird…" haha!
I'll let you guys enjoy the pics and don't forget: let me know your thoughts!


The web-based platform enables owner-operators and small- and medium-size fleets to deal directly with shippers rather than rely on freight brokers.
Carriers bid on loads posted by shippers through a direct auction model similar to eBay. That approach allows carriers and shippers to settle pricing between themselves. After the transaction, the carrier and shipper rate each other.
LoadExpress also enables both parties to track the shipment and transaction. All documents are verified and stored on the platform, which also offers speedy payment on completed deliveries, the company said.
"We're using proven web-based technology to wring out billions of dollars of operational and price inefficiencies from the truck freight industry," said Ken Liu, vice president of business development at LoadExpress.
The platform is free to use for carriers. Shippers pay a transaction fee for each completed shipment.
LoadExpress also is accessible through a companion mobile app for Android and Apple devices.


This tip is a great add-on to increase income from other affiliate techniques, but by itself it's not likely to make you a millionaire.
This strategy works best when you already have a site in place that generates a decent amount of traffic. Anything less than 10,000 page views per month and it probably isn't worth it (and you might not even qualify).
Basically, all you have to do is sign up for an ad network that offers display ads in your niche, and insert some code into your site to place these ads either in the header, in the sidebar, or in the middle of your content.
You'll get credit for each page view, also known as an impression, and will get paid depending on the value of the ad served, which in turn depends on your site topic and traffic.
Depending on your niche and the quality of your traffic, expect to earn anywhere from $0.50 – $5.00 per thousand. It's definitely not enough to replace your primary affiliate strategy, but it can earn you an extra few bucks each month.
Sign up for a CPM ad network like Clicksor, Adfly, or any of the other big names. Even Amazon recently launched its own CPM program that automatically incorporates into their associates program.
