When faced with a question, it's nice to get an immediate answer. Even nicer to get it from whoever first asked it. Whatza Spiedie manages to do just that - they've got that kind of hospitality on board. They've also - no surprise - a whole lotta spiedies, which for the sake of this description, are as follows - cubed pork and chicken roasted over an open flame and spiced to perfection, piled high onto potatoes, in a wrap, into a sandwich or tucked in a sub.
Take your pick of form - no matter which you choose, you'll be getting savory, fire-roasted goodness imported from the streets of New York to the streets of Charlotte, sacrificing nothing for its Carolina vacation. Track down the truck to answer the question for yourself - or propose it to all your friends by booking it for your next event. Turns out spiedies make for great catering fare too. That's the thing about knowledge - once you start learning, it's tough to stop. And in this case, that also goes for eating.
Salt Potatoes - the perfect pair to whatever form your spiedies take, seasoned to a tee.

Military cargo found on plane en route from Russia to Syria
Turkey 11 October 2012 02:12 (UTC+04:00)
Azerbaijan, Baku, Oct. 11 / Trend /
Parts of a military system and military communication equipment were found on board a Syrian passenger plane en route from Moscow to Damascus that was forced to land by Turkish jets at Ankara airport, CNN Turk TV reported Thursday.
At the same time, the Turkish Foreign Ministry sent an emergency warning to the Department of Civil Aviation, ordering all Turkish aircraft to immediately leave Syrian airspace.
Turkish fighter jets forced a Syrian passenger jet to land at the airport in the Turkish capital Ankara on Wednesday.
Turkish F-16s forced down the Airbus A320, which was flying from Moscow to Damascus, over suspicions it has prohibited cargo on board.
The plane, which took off from Moscow's Vnukovo airport, landed in Ankara at 5:15 p.m. local time.
Davutoglu confirmed that a Syrian plane with 30 passengers on board was diverted to Ankara and forced to land by Turkish fighter jets on Wednesday.
"There is information that the plane had cargo on board that does not meet the requirements of civil aviation," Davutoglu told TGRT television in Athens, where he is on a visit.
"Measures are currently being undertaken as provided under current legislation and international law," he said.
Turkey will continue to investigate Syrian civilian aircraft using its airspace, Reuters quoted Davutoglu as saying.
Tensions between the two countries boiled over late last Wednesday when a mortar round apparently fired from Syria killed five civilians in the Turkish border town of Akcakale.
Turkey responded with artillery strikes against targets in violence-wracked Syria and the Turkish parliament authorized the government to order more strikes as necessary.
Although Damascus apologized for the incident, Turkish and Syrian artillery exchanged fire a number of times over the ensuing six days.

Hypnotherapy is the use of hypnosis in the treatment of the presenting problems of a client. The word hypnosis comes from the Greek word "Hypnos" meaning sleep. Hypnosis is a state of consciousness which resembles sleep.
Hypnosis is an ancient practice. It has been practiced by many of the ancient civilisations and used to be looked upon as "magic". Dr. Franz Mesmer was the first person to popularise hypnosis in the western world. He used a practice of moving hands to induce the hypnotic trance. This process was known as "mesmerism". He believed that hypnosis was induced by "animal magnetism".
Hypnotic trance is a normal state of consciousness which a person experiences transiently twice in a night-during the initial period while drifting into deep sleep and in the morning while waking up. In the hypnotic trance, the critical filter of the mind which usually restricts the access to the subconscious mind is bypassed and so there is direct access to the subconscious mind.
Most of the problems a person faces in life are due to the presence of incorrect beliefs/perceptions which are stored in their subconscious mind. These beliefs/perceptions control the person's life. The person may be unaware of these incorrect beliefs/perceptions. Through hypnosis, these incorrect beliefs/perceptions are determined and they are corrected and/or replaced by positive beliefs/perceptions.
A person will enter a hypnotic trance only if he/she is willing to enter the hypnotic trance. The person is in control of whether they will accept the suggestions being given by the therapist or not. If the person does not want to follow the suggestions given by the therapist, then they can refuse to carry out the suggestions. The person can exit the trance at any time they want to. A person in a hypnotic trance is also in control of what information he/she is ready to reveal to the therapist.
Anyone can be hypnotised if they are ready to be hypnotised. A person cannot "get stuck" in a hypnotic trance. If the person does not wake up at the end of the trance when the therapist has completed the session, then he/she will drift into a state of sleep and will automatically wake up after the course of sleep is over.
While a person is in hypnotic trance he/she retains awareness of their surroundings. They can still hear the background sounds like the traffic sounds, the dogs barking, the birds chirping, etc. though these sounds will not disturb them. Hypnotic trance is similar to the state of consciousness experienced during deep meditation.
The below table describes the state of the conscious mind and the subconscious mind during normal waking state, sleep and hypnotic trance.
The subconscious mind is always awake and in control. This is because it controls the vital functions of the body like digestion, respiration, circulation and other functions.


Using hitherto unseen letters and diaries and resting on the personal recollections of people who knew him, The Sultan of Zanzibar tells the story of Horace de Vere Cole, the world's greatest ever prankster. Born into great wealth and privilege, Cole dedicated his life to pricking pomposity in other people through a series of extraordinary jokes and hoaxes. His most famous escapade was the "Dreadnought Hoax" in 1910 when Cole led a party of friends, including a youthful Virginia Woolf, on a tour of the Royal Navy's greatest battleship dressed as Abyssinian princes. The successful hoax sealed Cole's reputation making him one of the greatest celebrities of his day.
In this first biography, I chart Cole's jokes; his love of poetry, art, theatre and music hall and his many tempestuous love affairs. The Sultan of Zanzibar offers remarkable insight into the pre-war generation and a long vanished age of fancy dress balls, wild parties and practical joking. From the battlefields of the Boer War to the 1916 Easter Rising in Dublin, the book sweeps through some of the great events in early twentieth century British history and culminates in the tragic early death of Cole in abject poverty in France.
Published by Blackspring Press in April 2010, The Sultan of Zanzibar received feature coverage in the Daily Express and Daily Mail. It was the second most widely reviewed book in the UK press in the week of publication with features reviews in the Spectator, Daily Telegraph, Sunday Telegraph, Sunday Times, Independent, Mail on Sunday and Country Life.


The WenDesigner.com client site was our first experiment with our Rapid Development Pathway – RDP (see Very Fast, Less Money). Created in under 80 hours, this site represents what both client and engineer can accomplish in a short period of time, if both are willing to purchase third party assets and not create them from scratch. It illustrates the true power of synergy (when Designer trusts Engineer and vice versa).

Page 35 of The Billionaire's Wife
Pasge List Listen Audio
Truth being told, I was flattered, and perhaps more than a little scared. All the features that made me choose her – her impulsiveness, adaptability, raw talent for blending into a role – were remarkably attractive to me. But I hadn't counted on how her natural charisma and beauty would only accentuate these features, making her the perfect companion. In another life, maybe I'd have taken the time to get to know her a little deeper. Maybe we could have been together without a Swiss bank account and a stack of annulment paperwork.
It's a shame that it just can't be.
I wanted to destroy the contract and keep her on my arm. All my life, people who wanted to take advantage had surrounded me. I grew up a child who would give the shirt off of his back, sent to the wrong public schools on a technicality – and finding myself in a den of thieves. When I embroiled myself in my schoolwork and managed to switch to a more esteemed high school, I was able to pull everything together, secure the notice of Yale, and win several powerful scholarships that made attending the school somewhat of a possibility.
But then, I was singled out for my aptitude. Naturally introverted, whatever attention I drew from my peers was almost exclusively to belittle me, undermine me, or try to earn the praise of our professors by being associated with me.
Everywhere I went, surrounded by sharks.
Of course, building a small, lucrative empire did nothing to help. It had never been in the design to become a billionaire, and the success only snowballed with the passing years. I was too tenacious, too dedicated to fulfilling that role. One day, I turned back on everything that I had built, realizing for the first time that I had gone from young university dropout armed with ideas, a promise to keep, and a few hunches…to a self-made man with a staggering net worth and almost no time in the world.
Before I could sit back and reap the benefits of my hard work, I was hit with the diagnosis.
Maybe I was a fool, but I felt like Kiona could learn to love me. I could learn to love her. Both of these were indisputable facts to me, and I wondered what the possibilities might be. But what had originated as a way to teach myself to force everyone out – just to keep myself safe from those who would try to take advantage of me – became a defense mechanism, preventing anyone from getting too close.
I didn't want to leave anybody hurt.
My partner wasn't attached yet, but she was a survivor. An opportunist. With the right resources, she could build upon my foundation, starting something extraordinary of her own. That's why I had lied to her. I wasn't going to pay Kiona fifteen million dollars for her efforts here. There was no way I could organize my charitable legacy in the short time I had left. I needed someone detail focused and driven. I needed someone adaptable who could fall into the role of conservator for my estate.
Maybe I just wanted to shock the world, one last time.
I'd already made the decision. To hell with the fifteen million. I was leaving her almost everything.
The flight back was somewhat uneventful. Drained from a long day of cramming in the last few sights we could fit, we relaxed in our window-side chairs of my private jet, bound back for New York. I was rather pleased with myself for taking a bad situation and turning it around, especially concerning my somewhat temperamental partner.
Speaking of Kiona, she had fallen asleep with her face near the glass. As I stood up to stretch my legs, I glanced over at her, admiring how the light bathed her sweet mocha skin. I fought the craving to stir her from her slumber, guide her over to the comfortable bed in the back of the small jet, and explore her body with my tongue.
No, I thought to myself sternly. You know you can't.
With a tremendous sigh, I cursed my sex drive and my strong sense of morality. What kind of billionaire can't fuck his pretend-wife at ten thousand feet?
Pushing my feelings down, I considered quietly locking myself in the bathroom and masturbating…but decided, no, I am not going to jack off in an airplane bathroom like some sort of uncontrollably horny teenager. Instead, I pulled out my laptop and reviewed sales figures, answered some emails for the first time since Monday morning, and tried to ignore the tremendous bulge in my pants.

Pear smoothie is something I had never thought to make at all, especially not for breakfast. Normally I love a hot breakfast. Nothing beats some soft boiled or fried eggs served with thinly sliced cucumbers, avocados, smoked salmon and pesto.
Now that is always my breakfast of choice. And really what I need to get the day off to a good start.
When you all of a sudden have your bottom two wisdom teeth remove, that is no longer an option.
Sadly there are no more eggs for breakfast. It's an all liquid diet and you've just got to make the best of it.
This is where the breakfast banana, spinach and pear smoothie comes in. Normally I don't make smoothies. Not that I'm opposed to them, it's just I prefer to have my meals in chew-able form, as opposed to straight liquid. So I must admit this was my first ever breakfast smoothie. And I've got to say I LOVED it!!
For nine days after I got my wisdom teeth out last month, I was on a straight liquid diet though. Talk about the ultimate form of torture for a food blogger. No delicious solid food for nine full days.
Not quite sure how I made it out alive at all. Luckily there are plenty of options out there for delicious soups, smoothies (think: Vegan Piña Colada Smoothie, Creamy Vegan Taro Smoothie, Vegan Mango Smoothie) and juices so between the three of those I kept myself mildly fed and preventing full of starvation from setting in.
This banana, spinach and pear smoothie though. This became my go to breakfast for days. Once I got a winning combination down, I didn't even need any variety. Does that every happen to you? Once you find a recipe that works, that just becomes your go to? Sometimes consistency is key, and you don't need all that much variety.
Spinach + bananas + pear smoothie with maca powder + coconut water. Meet the best ever breakfast smoothie.
That is all you need in this thick and creamy refreshingly vibrant smoothie. Just look at that color. So bright and green right?
And delicious and insanely healthy. I mean once you're starting your day off with an enormous handful of spinach you're just off to a great start and bound to feel good about yourself. The maca powder I found in my mom's pantry and its one of those fairly new superfood which is quickly sweeping the shelves.
This combination banana, spinach and pear smoothie is loaded with vitamins, minerals and is particularly good for increasing energy levels and regulating hormone functions while helping with your mood balance.
Umm with an all liquid diet for days I needed both an energy and mood pick me up. So then we've got the banana, pear and coconut water. All packed full of vitamins and nutrients as well.
If I can't have my standard hot egg breakfast, this breakfast banana and pear smoothie might not be such a bad alternative after all.
And to top it off, it can easily be taken on the good. Just pour the pear smoothie into a cup and sip slowly on your way to work.
Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Add more coconut water or coconut milk until desired consistency is reached.
I love the combination! You don't see pear too often in smoothies, but I'm sure it tastes wonderful.
Thanks! Pear makes for a great smoothie addition — it's not too sweet but has a nice texture to bring to smoothie. Definitely worth trying!
I will be trying this for breakfast this week! I have never had maca before, and bought a bag to experiment with! Thanks for sharing, I am featuring your recipe this week on Allergy Free Wednesday!
I've not heard of maca powder, how cool that your mom has it in her pantry. We (well, some of us) love green smoothies around here. My 5 yr old daughter loves hers with banana, cocoa, kale, keifer and "chiwi" (chia) seeds. I'll have to try pear in the smoothie sometime, sounds interesting. Thanks for sharing at Simple Lives Thursday, hope to see you again this week.
I recently read about maca powder and have been hearing more about it. You can find it at Whole Foods in powdered form or you can even buy capsules to take daily. It perfect to throw into a smoothie. Your daughters smoothie sounds delicious!
I LOVE the green!! Thanks for linking up at our Gluten Free Fridays party! I have tweeted and pinned your entry to our Gluten Free Fridays board on Pinterest! 🙂 I can't wait to see what you share this week! Its LIVE!
Going to try this! Thanks for sharing.


How do I sign up for the CSA?
Information on signing up for the CSA is available on this website, see the "CSA" page!
When does the CSA season run?
The CSA runs from mid May through through Thanksgiving. Exact dates vary from year to year and will be mailed out to shareholders a few weeks before the first harvest.
Our share is completely flexible! Because we use a debit card system, you can come to our scheduled distributions (Tuesday and Thursday, 2:30 to 6:30 PM, and Saturday 8AM to 12:30 PM), and customize your share from the produce we have displayed.
You can purchase CSA cards in three amounts, $270 (we credit your card for $300, a 10% discount), $525 (we credit your card for $600, a 12% discount), and $685 (we credit your card for $800, a 14% discount). We ask that you try to spend your card down to below $50 by the end of the year. Your leftover funds rollover to the following season. If you run low on funds during the season, you may add more money to your card in $100, at a 5% discount.
Fort Hill Farm CSA shares are only available on the farm in New Milford, or at the New Milford Farmers Market. Shareholders pick up their produce from our farm display, on Tuesday or Thursday from 2:30 to 6:30 PM, and/or Saturday mornings from 8 AM to 12:30PM,. This allows you to custom mix your share. Several crops are exclusively 'pick your own' (see below for PYO guidelines and hours). Generally these crops (including beans, peas, strawberries, cut flowers, and herbs) will be available for picking as long as they are in the field. That will take some elbow grease on your part, however most people find a few minutes picking to be a pleasurable experience. You can also use your card at the New Milford summer and winter farmers markets.
Can I change pick up days?
Yes, you can come on whichever day is convenient for you. Skip a week, or come to the farm multiple times in one week.
What does 'seasonal eating' mean?
The advent of cheap fossil fuels and intensive investment in transportation infrastructure has made out-of-season produce so commonplace that most consumers no longer even know when produce is in season locally. You will learn these cycles of nature as a CSA shareholder. Spring is a bonanza of greens for salads, sauté, and stir fry. Summer starts with a profusion of summer squash and cukes, crescendos with sweet, ripe heirloom tomatoes and sweet corn, and ends with the harvest of the first winter squash. Fall brings cool nights and warm days, and the best broccoli and spinach you ever ate, along with an abundance of beets and carrots to savor in winter soups.
What happens if your crops fail?
We grow a huge variety of crops, everything from arugula to zucchini. So the chances of it being a bad year for everything are practically nil. For example, bad strawberry years (cool and wet weather) bring on bumper crops of sweet snap peas. We also grow several plantings of most crops. But there is a risk that farmers take each year, and as a CSA shareholder you are taking on some of that risk. Some weather events, like severe hail and wind in late spring, cause crop yield losses that are unrecoverable. As a CSA shareholder, you are taking on the rewards AND the risks of farming. Please consider that we do not refund shares due to weather damage or other Acts of Mother Nature before you commit to a share. On the plus side, you never lose the funds you put on your card, although we do ask that you try to spend down your card to within $50 by then end of winter.
The New Milford Winter Farmers market starts December 1, at the East St. school, 50 East St.
It has a roof and is heated!!
The Westport Winter Farmers Market continues through mid March in the lovely heated greenhouse at Gilberties Herb Garden, 7 Sylvan Lane.
Our Farm Stand is closed for the season thanks for being a part of our farm!
Winter sets in but the spinach gets sweeter!
Please check out the "Find our Produce" tab above for our winter Farmer's Market schedule.

Winters have knocked our doors and we all now crave for that sunshine. Cozy warm blankets call us all the time ;). Though I find winters much better than summers, but with winters, come dry skin and dry hair. All need more moisture, more hydration. Since I have curly hair, which are already dry, get so lifeless in winters. So, I always go for best of oils and hair masks and steam sessions in winters.
Here, I will review today my newly found friend for achieving those luscious locks and weight loss too!!
Nature Sure is a brand that is giving us 100% natural and pure products. I am using this Kalonji oil since last month and quite happy with the results. I have used this for oiling my hair and I have noticed that hair fall has reduced and the scalp is no more flaky which are common problems during winters. I am yet to use it for weight loss concerns. But for hair, I am liking it. Since it is a natural product, with no added fragrances, the smell is not so good, but again, it is a good thing. I am soon going to use it for various purposes and will update the post accordingly.
The oil comes in a green plastic bottle, in a cardboard box. The bottle has a flip open cap. The oil is dark in colour and is thick in consistency, more thick than we normally use. The cap fits tightly and there is no spillage problem.
This oil is known for its miraculous power of healing remedy for all diseases except death.
Medical studies have proven role of Kalonji as antihypertensive, liver tonic, diuretics, digestive, anti-diarroheal, appetite stimulant, analgesic , anti-bacterial and in skin disorders.
The scientific studies have established its medicinal and healing effects as Antidiabetic, Anticancer, Immunomodulator, Analgesic, Antimicrobial, Anti-inflammatory, Spasmolytic, Bronchodilator, Hepato-protective, Renal protective, Gastro protective, Antioxidant etc.
Kalonji oil is said to be an ultimate source of essential fatty acids.
Kalonji Oil is best fuel for hair growth and treatment of scalp and hair loss.
Kalonji has anti-obesity action and helps in reducing weight and glucose levels, thus helping in diabetes too.
Kalonji oil helps in improving body tone and prevents skin wrinkles.
Kalonji helps in treating sleep disorders (insomnia).
Uffffff, I am panting, seeing all the qualities, telling you all about these, learning myself, I am just wondering. All the goodness in one little black seed!! It is miraculous. There is no reason why we should not have this in our home.
Since Nature Sure, as a brand, has come up with 100% pure and natural, you can use it as per your needs, in different ways.
Since I am on look out for weight loss all the time :P, I will share with you how to consume it for that specific purpose.
Kalonji oil + cinnamon powder + honey (+lemon optional).
Kalonji oil + orange juice.
Alternately, you can consume Kalonji seeds too or mix them in vegetables.
Excess consumption of Kalonji should be avoided as it produces heat in the body which can create complications especially for pregnant and trying to conceive women. Eat only recommended quantity.
Kalonji Oil – Nigella Sativa ( Black Cumin) is rightly called "The Seed of Blessing".

How might we build collaboration into the curation and interpretation of data in the humanities? How might a tool that facilitates the sharing of humanities data enable new kinds of networked research communities?
Following an introduction by Clay Shirky, Vice Provost for Educational Technology at NYU, Thomas Augst (English, NYU) and Nicholas Wolf (NYU Libraries) report on NewYorkScapes and its new accompanying website, a collaborative venture between NYU College of Arts and Sciences, NYU Libraries, and NYU IT, to build ties among researchers through project-based collaboration and support for place-based learning. With Seth Kaufman, founder of Brooklyn developer Whirl-i-gig, they will also introduce a prototype of Inquisite, an open-source environment for building and sharing data collections for the purposes of teaching and research.
The quest to design digital and real solutions to environmental problems will be the theme of three interdisciplinary presentations crossing the boundaries of the humanities, architecture, and engineering.
We invite you to take part in a conversation about the future of the humanities. Where should we be headed, how are we responding to the 'crisis' in the humanities, and what is the role and significance of the digital humanities within these new trajectories?
Starting with brief presentations from some of those leading new initiatives in the humanities, the event will be devoted primarily to discussion with the audience: come and be part of the conversation.


Decomposing the effect of contextual priors in visual search: Where does the time go?
Barbara Hidalgo-Sotelo, Aude Oliva; Decomposing the effect of contextual priors in visual search: Where does the time go?. Journal of Vision 2006;6(6):835. doi: 10.1167/6.6.835.
Among the many visual searches we perform daily, often the same environment is searched for the same item multiple times. Contextual cueing research has shown that repeated configurations facilitate attentional guidance toward the target (Chun & Jiang 1998). We investigated the influence of contextual priors in guiding visual search by monitoring eye movements as participants search familiar real-world scenes. The level of search difficulty was either easy (target visible within a glance) or difficult (target requiring foveation). Additionally, we manipulated the expectation of target presence in a given scene. One group of subjects established strong contextual priors: the target would always be present or always absent. A second group established weaker priors: a given scene was presented with the target present only 50% of the time. After twenty epochs of search, reaction times in the strong contextual prior group improved by 280 ms, while the weak prior group improved by only 190 ms. A decomposition of reaction times shows this improvement is found in two stages. First, the scan time to fixate the target is decreased, implying a faster exploration stage. Second, the time spent fixating the target before response (gaze duration) also decreases. Interestingly, the magnitude of scan time improvement was the same for both groups. The remaining RT improvement in the strong prior group is entirely manifested in decreased gaze duration. These results demonstrate experience-dependent influences at different stages of visual search and have implications for models of context-dependent scene processing.

Severe thunderstorm is Australia's most frequent and costly atmospheric peril. As development extends into previously undeveloped areas and cities become more densely populated, the loss potential from hail, tornado, and straight-line wind increases. Thus historical loss data alone are not sufficient for robust risk assessment. Manage your risk with the industry's first comprehensive severe thunderstorm model for Australia.
See your whole risk at once.
The AIR Severe Thunderstorm Model for Australia in Touchstone® gives you a comprehensive view of severe thunderstorm risk across Australia for your entire portfolio of exposures.
Assess the impacts of individual sub-perils.
Separate damage functions for hail, tornado, and straight-line wind capture their unique impacts on buildings, contents, automobiles, large industrial facilities, and business interruption. Analyze losses from each peril individually to gain insight into your risk drivers.
Generate more robust loss estimates.
Statistical and physical modeling approaches combine to create a sizable catalog of plausible severe thunderstorm events, from the large outbreaks that last several days and affect multiple states/territories to the highly localized events that last just minutes.
Consider regional and temporal variations.
Different severity indexes are applied to capture regional shifts in severe thunderstorm occurrence as seasons change, which could put different sets of exposures at more, or less, risk.
Better understand the vulnerability of your exposures.
The age and height of structures, as well as building code enforcement, construction materials and practices, mitigation features, and additional factors that affect vulnerability are incorporated to capture how exposures will perform during a severe thunderstorm.

Billy Beane Bio-Pic Released on DVD
Brad Pitt has positioned himself as a serious contender for an Academy Award by virtue of his engaging performance in this delightful bio-pic. For he is simply sensational as Billy Beane here, in an emotionally-uplifting, David vs. Goliath saga revolving around the amazing run of the Oakland Athletics during the 2002 season.
The iconoclastic, A's General Manager revolutionized baseball that year by fielding a team of lowly-touted underdogs who somehow managed to beat the odds by overachieving and reaching the playoffs. But Billy knew their feat was no fluke since there had been a mathematical method to his madness.
Based on Michael Lewis' best-seller of the same name, Moneyball chronicles how Beane came to make roster moves relying on statistics alone in lieu of listening to scouts like the other major league franchises. Truth be told, the beleaguered GM had adopted the unorthodox approach almost out of desperation because he'd just lost three of his best players to free agency: Jason Giambi, Johnny Damon and Jason Isringhausen.
And as a small market team with modest revenues, the A's simply couldn't afford to match the mega-salaries being offered by perennial World Series contenders like the Yankees, Dodgers and Red Sox. So, on the advice of his nerdy, young assistant, Peter Brand (Jonah Hill), an Ivy-educated economist he'd hired away from the Cleveland Indians, Beane began to employ a state-of-the-art system of computer analysis known as Sabermetrics.
However, he still had a hard time selling the strategy to his skeptical, hard-boiled manager, Art Howe (Philip Seymour Hoffman), who initially refused to cooperate with what he considered a patently ridiculous innovation. But Howe would grudgingly embrace the rag-tag assortment of misfits he was handed, and eventually lead the team to victory.
Directed by Bennett Miller, Moneyball was adapted by Academy Award-winner Aaron Sorkin (for The Social Network), a gifted storyteller with a knack for both inspired dialogue and compelling character development. He deserves accolades for the way in which he humanizes his protagonist by having Billy exhibit a sincere regret over his failed marriage and the toll the divorce is taking on his emotionally-distant, 12 year-old daughter, Casey (Kerris Dorsey).
Consequently, we care as much about the resolution of the strained father-daughter relationship as about the outcome of Oakland's historic baseball season. How long can the A's computer-assisted miracle season last? Will Billy and Casey ever reconcile?
A tender reminder that the heart sometimes still matters even if we now live in a technology-driven, Digital Age where machines lead and humans follow.
Excellent (4 stars)
Rated PG-13 for profanity.
Distributor: Sony Pictures Home Entertainment
Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack Extras: Deleted scenes; blooper; Billy Beane: Re-Inventing the Game; Moneyball: Playing the Game; Drafting the Team; Adapting Moneyball; and preview trailer.

Neslavne barabe () je ameriško-nemški alternativnozgodovinski vojni film z elementi črne komedije iz leta 2009, ki ga je režiral in zanj napisal scenarij Quentin Tarantino, v glavnih vlogah pa nastopajo Brad Pitt, Christoph Waltz, Michael Fassbender, Eli Roth, Diane Kruger, Daniel Brühl, Til Schweiger in Mélanie Laurent. Zgodba prikazuje dve zaroti za atentat na vodstvo Nacistične Nemčije, eno načrtuje mlada francoska Judinja in lastnica kinematografa Shosanna Dreyfus (Laurent), drugo pa ekipa ameriško-judovskih vojakov pod vodstvom poročnika Alda Rainea (Pitt). Christoph Waltz v vlogi polkovnika SS Hansa Lande išče Rainejevo skupino, v preteklosti je bil tudi povezan s Shosanno. Naslov filma je navdihnil film Enza G. Castellarija Peterica ožigosanih () iz leta 1978.

Tarantino je napisal scenarij že leta 1998, toda imel je težave z zaključkom, zato se je odločil prej posneti film v dveh delih Ubila bom Billa, po filmu Smrtno varen iz leta 2007 pa se je ponovno posvetil Neslavnim barabam. Snemanje v koprodukciji ZDA in Nemčije se je pričelo oktobra 2008 v Nemčiji in Franciji s proračunom 70 milijonov USD. Primerno je bil prikazan 20. maja 2009 na Filmskem festivalu v Cannesu, avgusta istega leta pa še v ameriških in evropskih kinematografih v distribuciji družb The Weinstein Company in Universal Pictures.

Film je s 321,5 milijona USD prihodkov po svetu postal najdonosnejši Tarantinov film, ki sta ga odtlej presegla Django brez okovov (2012) in Bilo je nekoč ... v Hollywoodu (2019). Tudi med kritiki je naletel na odobravanje ter prejel številne nominacije in nagrade. Na 82. podelitvi je bil nominiran za oskarja v osmih kategorijah, tudi za najboljši film, najboljšo režijo in najboljši izvirni scenarij. Edinega oskarja je osvojil Waltz za najboljšega stranskega igralca, ob tem je prejel še nagradi BAFTA in zlati globus v isti kategoriji. Ob tem je bil film nominiran še za tri zlate globuse in pet nagrad BAFTA.

Because spring break is a much needed break from the rigid school schedule, parents tend to let their kids follow their bliss. I am in full support of this irregularity. Kids need a break from the regular routine, and they love the fun things they get to do over spring break.
But the irregularity does create a bit of a challenge when trying to create a project together with the group. In years past I have solved this problem with "5 plays in 5 days" (which is exactly what it sounds like), but I still ended up with kids leaving early or arriving late. And the children who were there all day for 5 days didn't get to capitalize on that building momentum.
This year I decided to create a new Play in a Week format: We would work on 1 play all week, and create 1 scene each day (almost like a mini 1 act play). We would practice the created acts each day (using stand-ins if necessary), and add a new one using children who were present. Parents were invited to rehearsal at the end of the day each day (or they could opt to come see the final product at the end of the week).
Day 1: We performed the scene where the problem happened, showing the setting, characters and the main problem. .
Day 2: We performed an expanded scene, with the characters establishment leading into the problem itself, showing a bit of backstory and establishment of the setting/characters to show off their change/reactions to the problem.
Day 4: We performed a full run through, sans ending. (we hadn't established that yet!) adding 2 supporting characters, and more emotion. We also worked on moving through transitions clearer/faster.
Day 5: We performed the full play, with costumes, set, programs, 1 more character and an ending!
Because each day's scene was it's own play, it was clearly developed (for 5-9 year olds!) with a beginning, middle, and ending.
Children who were there for multiple days became more comfortable playing/creating in their roles and making new moments each day.
Building onto a bigger story allowed for kinds of creative contributions: Some kids felt more comfortable assuming a role that was already set and had blocking, lines, and reactions. Some kids wanted to create a new character or moment. And some wanted to work on props/costumes. This format allowed for all of that, letting kids participate where they felt comfortable.
Missing children in established roles meant that we needed replacements. This provided an opportunity for children to try out a part just for fun, or perform a part created by someone else (using someone else's ideas... and sometimes wearing someone else's shoes!). And in some cases, the character became even more developed because someone else had added to that vision.

History of Elcon
In one of the wooden sheds of a small-sized shipyard in Hollands green-hearted lake district, still very near Elcon's present location, the first sawing machine saw the light in the year 1948. It was the result of the need to work timber for deck-houses at the one hand and the post-war lack of machinery on the other.
The moment a neighbouring carpenter caught a glimpse of this remarkable piece of work, his interest was roused, and subsequently a new industry was born.
The two brothers Gerard and Frans Meijer, started to produce a wide variety of woodworking machines, ranging from circular saws, moulders and thicknessers to planers, tenonners, etc.
Soon production had grown such that it was necessary to move into a new building in 1953. In subsequent years further enlargements had to be realised, until in 1995 the growth of the activities forced the construction of a completely new and modern building at the newly developed industrial estate near Amsterdam Airport.
The first vertical panel-sawing machine, now Elcon's sole product, was developed in 1971. Although some of these first models are still in daily use in workshops, they look rather old-fashioned compared to today's range of sophisticated machinery.
By the end of the 1980's, the next generation Piet and Pieter Meijer had taken over the management tasks of both their fathers.
Today, still in the ownership of the Meijer family, the company work through a world-wide network of high profile distributors. With this international partnership functioning as a Taskforce for new developments, Elcon have built up an enviable reputation for innovation and design enabling them to occupy a position at the very forefront of the industry sector.

At a meeting today of the Board of Directors for the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the FDIC Board approved a joint final rule establishing margin requirements for swaps that are not cleared through a clearinghouse (the "Final Rule").
The Final Rule is a joint action along with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Reserve Board, the Farm Credit Administration and the Federal Housing Finance Agency (the "Agencies"). The Final Rule was developed in consultation with the CFTC and the SEC.
The Final Rule sets forth requirements for Covered Swap Entities to post and collect initial and variation margin for non-cleared swaps activity. Significantly, the Agencies did not modify the definition of financial end user to exclude structured finance SPVs. The Agencies expressly stated that they feel that these entities should be classified as financial end users and subject to the margin requirements set forth in the Final Rule.
SPVs that have material swaps exposures will have to post initial margin. However, the Final Rule increased the amount that gives rise to a material swaps exposure to $8 billion from the previously proposed level of $3 billion. Additionally, the Final Rule requires variation margin exchange for structured finance SPVs, but has broadened the types of collateral that may be used for variation margin.
Compliance dates for the Final Rule commence on September 1, 2016.

In a scary moment during RAW last night, Jeff Hardy knocked his head against the steel steps
Jeff Hardy managed to pin Elias despite the injury
Jeff Hardy faced Elias in a Symphony of Destruction match on RAW last night. Hardy won the match after he hit Elias, who was on a table out at ringside, with a Swanton Bomb. However, he hit his head against the steel steps on the way down and it looked pretty nasty. Despite the scary moment Hardy still managed to cover Elias for the win.

— WWE (@WWE) December 1, 2020
On the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez provided an update on Jeff Hardy's condition. Meltzer said:
"They should not have done it anywhere near the steps, in hindsight of course, because that was a scary looking fall and he was knocked loopy. I mean, you could see it. You know, they went right to the finish because well, that was the finish. I haven't officially heard how Jeff is but he was knocked loopy. This was not a good thing at all."
Bryan Alvarez added that he had been told that Jeff Hardy is fine:
"The word I got was that he was okay and I don't know what that means. I've heard that about a lot of people that have been banged on the head but I think too a degree, actually going through the table did slow him down but he still banged the back of his head on the steps."
Dave Meltzer then said that there was a possibility that Jeff Hardy could have a concussion:
"He hit the back of his head and he grabbed it right away and he was walking around like he was hurting real bad. That wasn't a sell. I mean he was looking there seeing if his head was split open which it didn't appear that he did but I had heard that there was kind of an expectation that he had a concussion but he hadn't been diagnosed as having one. That wouldn't come until just yet anyway."

Top Analyst Upgrades and Downgrades: Agilent, Ambarella, Barclays, Bluebird Bio, Chipotle, Honeywell, McDonald's Nutanix, NVIDIA, PagSeguro and More
Jon C. Ogg
Last Updated: January 30, 2020 12:46 pm
Stocks closed up on Monday and shares were indicated up marginally on Tuesday morning. Investors are starting to see upside targets being issued for 2020 but there still many pressing issues and risks to consider now that the bull market is over 10 and a half years old. Still, all those calls for an imminent recession were very misguided even as there are many uncertainties facing the coming year. This is a time for investors to consider what changes they should be making for their portfolios and assets heading into late 2019 and as 2020 approaches.
24/7 Wall St. reviews dozens of analyst research reports each day of the week. Our goal is to find new ideas for traders and long-term investors alike. Some of the daily analyst calls cover stocks to buy, while some analyst calls cover stocks to sell or stocks to avoid.
We have provided these calls in a quick-hit summary for easy reading and additional comments and trading data have been added on some of the calls. The consensus analyst price targets mentioned and other valuation metrics are from the Refinitiv sell-side research service.

With a comprehensive new IP Showcase and more interoperability solutions on show, the 2017 edition of IBC is looking readier than ever to push the boundaries of the creative industry when it returns to the RAI this year.
Another 55,000 attendees from more than 170 countries are expected to travel to Amsterdam for IBC between 14-19 September, as the discussion and debate about the challenges facing the entertainment and electronic media industries continues.
Here, more than 40 vendors will work together to demonstrate real-world IP interoperability based on SMPTE ST 2110 final draft standards and AMWA NMOS specifications – a single set of common IP interop standards and specifications that are enabling the flexibility and efficiency of IP in real time media.
The demonstrations will be divided into application pods – live production signal flows, contribution and playout signal flows, etc. – all shown under the control of familiar user interfaces. Here visitors can learn the business, technical, and creative benefits of IP workflows and media over IP network standards, as well as how others are already leveraging IP in real-world broadcaster applications and how these benefits can be applied to their own operations.
Meanwhile, the integrated IP Showcase theatre, curated by IABM, will run presentations covering the full range of knowledge for real-time IP production and intra-facility distribution.
The Content Everywhere Hub in Hall 14 will also feature an 'extensive and varied' programme of presentations, demonstrations and panel sessions designed for especially for broadcasters.
With more companies demonstrating their IP products, and great progress having been made in formalising and universally adopting the SMPTE ST 2110 suite of real-time IP signal flow standards, the IP Showcase is set to be a major destination for visitors to broaden their interoperability horizons.
Jünger Audio will demonstrate a number of its new networked audio products as well as showing its full range of Smart Audio-enabled D*AP gear at the 2017 show. Netbridge is a series of simple converters that translate established audio formats to networked audio. The first products in the range are UHD-Netbridge that converts 4x 3G-SDI to MADI and Dante and MADI-Netbridge, a bidirectional MADI/Dante converter, both of which will be available as 1U 19-inch rack mounting or standalone units. The German company will also introduce Easy Loudness, a dual stereo Level Magic audio processor with true peak limiting, optional loudness logging, and plug-and-play functionality. Fitted with SDI and AES IO, it is designed for stereo broadcast to ensure consistent loudness is maintained from programme to programme.
NUGEN Audio will demonstrate a new update for its Halo Upmix with a new 3D Immersive Extension that builds on Halo 9.1, adding further options beyond the existing Dolby Atmos bed track capability. Also on display will be Halo Downmix, the company's downmixing solution for creating the best possible stereo mixes from original surround audio sources.
Sennheiser will display a range of its products including the MK 4 digital microphone for dubbing and podcast applications, as well as the ClipMic digital and MKE 2 digital clip-on microphones for iPhones and iPads. Its portfolio of products is rounded off by shotgun microphones from the MKH series for film production, along with wireless microphones from the Digital 9000, Digital 6000, 2000 and evolution wireless series. Meanwhile, when it comes to 3D productions, the company's AMBEO VR Mic and Neumann's binaural KU 100 dummy head are bound to attract interest.
Then there is the Artemis Ray digital audio console from Calrec Audio, which will make its European debut at IBC 2017. Artemis Ray has 456 fully featured input channels and can handle up to 72 faders, the same as the company's larger Artemis Shine model.

Sportsnet CHL Saturday Showcase: Charlottetown at Halifax
Charlottetown Islanders CHL Saturday Showcase Halifax Mooseheads
Watch more CHL on SN on CHL TV
Two rivals from the QMJHL's Maritimes Division in the Charlottetown Islanders (39-20-4-3) and Halifax Mooseheads (48-15-2-1) will close out their regular-season schedules when they face off in this week's edition of the Sportsnet CHL Saturday Showcase at 3:30pm ET/12:30pm PT on Sportsnet and Sportsnet ONE.
Entering Friday, the Mooseheads, who have clinched the Maritimes Division title to qualify for the playoffs for the third consecutive year, are coming off a 5-3 win against the Moncton Wildcats. The game saw centre Benoit-Olivier Groulx, a second-round selection by the Anaheim Ducks in last year's NHL Draft, lead the way with a three-point effort, including two goals in the third period to cap the win for Halifax. Between the pipes, Chicago Blackhawks prospect Alexis Gravel turned aside 26 shots as he picked up his 33rd win on the season, the third highest in the QMJHL.
The Mooseheads have found the win column in 11 of their past 14 appearances. Part of that stretch included a nine-game streak by right-wing Raphael Lavoie in which he recorded eight goals and 10 assists for 18 points. The 18-year-old, who has been sidelined for the past two games with an upper-body injury, ranks 13th among North American skaters ahead of the 2019 NHL Draft, per Central Scouting's midterm report.
Meanwhile, the Islanders are riding a five-game win streak, including Wednesday's 3-2 overtime decision against the defending Memorial Cup champion Acadie-Bathurst Titan in which left-wing Daniel Hardie, who leads the team with 76 points in 66 games, and defenceman Hunter Drew, another Ducks' prospect, each picked up two points. The string of victories also helped Charlottetown clinch its seventh-straight playoff appearance and 13th in the past 14 seasons.
Saturday marks the ninth match between the two sides this year, with Halifax carrying a commanding 6-1-1-0 lead in the season series. The last meetup was in mid-February when the Mooseheads came away with a 3-0 victory as Lavoie scored the game's first two goals before defenceman Jared McIsaac, a second-round pick by the Detroit Red Wings in the 2018 NHL Draft, sealed the win with an empty netter. Gravel also stopped 24 shots to notch his third shutout.
Catch all of the action in the latest match between the Islanders and Mooseheads when the two sides square off Saturday on Sportsnet and Sportsnet ONE and on the NHL Network in the United States when the puck drops at 3:30pm ET/12:30pm PT.

Simon & Schuster Reorganizes Field Sales Operation
As part of the reorganization of its field sales force, Simon & Schuster has created a new telemarketing department while reducing the number of reps in the field. Sources said that the addition of telemarketing reps somewhat offset the cut of nine field reps, resulting in a net job loss under 10.
Under its new approach, S&S's new field sales team "will focus on the geographic regions where our sales are strongest—urban areas with a large base of key independent retail, wholesale, and educational accounts," S&S executive v-p for sales and marketing Michael Selleck said in a memo explaining the reorganization. The field group now has seven reps, who, depending on their territory, will call on regional wholesalers as well as large independent booksellers. Michael Croy, director of field sales, will oversee the field sales team.
The new telemarketing group will operate under the direction of Frank Fochetta, v-p and director, field and special sales, and will work with a core group of more than 400 independent booksellers, distributors, and educational wholesalers, Selleck wrote. The unit will "actively participate in the publishing process, proactively sell our list based on the best and latest information, and adopt a hands-on approach to managing and nurturing account relationships." S&S hopes to have the team in place by February 15. The reorganization, Selleck wrote, "acknowledges the changing nature of the market place and provides us with a flexible, multi-faceted plan for addressing the needs of the Field bookselling channel."
Several people also picked up new responsibilities under the reorganization. Brian Kelleher will now manage key educational wholesalers in Illinois, Missouri, Texas, and Kansas, including Hertzberg, the Booksource, and Southwest Book, while remaining the children's and educational specialist for the entire field channel. Bobbi Schlatter-Cable will continue to manage Ingram while adding responsibilities for key CBA accounts. Lauren Rouleau will manage the Revelations commission rep group that sells into the CBA field accounts as well as other commission sales groups.
The reorg brings the field sales force full circle from earlier last decade when sales reps sold all books to all types of accounts. The new alignment puts renewed focus for each of S&S's rep groups (field, telemarketing, telesales, specialty) on serving different types of accounts with distinct profiles.

Q: Uncaught Error: Object of class CompanyName could not be converted to string I have two classes in PHP.

*

*RequestorId.php

<?php

class RequestorId
{

    /**
     * @var CompanyName $CompanyName
     * @access public
     */
    public $CompanyName = null;

    /**
     * @var string $ID
     * @access public
     */
    public $ID = null;

    /**
     * @var string $ID_Context
     * @access public
     */
    public $ID_Context = null;

    /**
     * @param CompanyName $CompanyName
     * @param string $ID
     * @param string $ID_Context
     * @access public
     * **/
    public function __construct($CompanyName, $ID, $ID_Context)
    {
      $this->$CompanyName = $CompanyName;
      $this->$ID = $ID;
      $this->$ID_Context = $ID_Context;
    }

}

*CompanyName.php

<?php

class CompanyName
{

    /**
     * @var string $Code
     * @access public
     */
    public $Code = null;

    /**
     * @param string $Code
     * @access public
     */
    public function __construct($Code)
    {
      $this->Code = $Code;
    }

}

I received this error "Uncaught Error: Object of class CompanyName could not be converted to string", when I use them like this:
    $companyname = new CompanyName('SampleName');
    $requestorid = new RequestorId($companyname, '10', 'sss'); <<-- error happen here

Can anyone help me and point me in the right direction, please?

A: It's a typo in your RequestorId constructor class. Rewrite it like this:
public function __construct($CompanyName, $ID, $ID_Context)
    {
      $this->CompanyName = $CompanyName;
      $this->ID = $ID;
      $this->ID_Context = $ID_Context;
    }

You must remove $ sign from the beginning of properties when accessing them.
When you use $ in front of CompanyName it means that you want to have a dynamic property name based on what is the value of $CompanyName provided in constructor. Then php tries to convert your class to string but it can't and you get the error.
