Lawmakers 'perturbed' when House Sergeant-at-Arms told them at least none of them died in Capitol attack: report
On Tuesday, The Washington Post reported that the private briefing of House lawmakers on the violent Capitol invasion left many members shocked and unsatisfied as to the failures of law enforcement to restrain the rioters.
"Multiple participants in the briefing, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe the closed-door sessions, said law enforcement officials appeared to still be grappling with the extent of the peril that faced lawmakers that day," reported Karoun Demirjian, Aaron Davis, and Peter Hermann. "Among the new details discussed in the meeting: that a group of lawmakers being evacuated from the House chamber were mistakenly first directed to the wrong room on Capitol grounds, instead of to the secure room where members were gathering, according to a person familiar with the briefing."

"Lawmakers were particularly perturbed by the testimony of acting House sergeant at arms Timothy P. Blodgett, who touted the fact that 'every Member and House staff went home without death or serious injury,' crediting that to the performance of both his office and the Capitol Police," continued the report. "Following the briefing, Rep. Mike Quigley (D-Ill.), a committee member, said in an interview that no dead or maimed lawmakers was 'a pretty low bar,' adding, 'I firmly believe that is due to the courage of Capitol Police officers and blind luck.'"

The briefing also featured the testimony of former Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy, acting chief of D.C. police Robert Contee, D.C. National Guard Maj. Gen. William Walker, and "representatives from the Secret Service, FBI, Justice Department, the D.C. U.S. attorney's office and the Park Police." It is the first of what is expected to be several hearings on the attack.

The invasion ultimately was a major factor in the second impeachment of former President Donald Trump, which will move forward in the Senate after a motion from Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) to declare the trial unconstitutional was defeated.

Keith Olbermann calls on FBI to investigate Marjorie Taylor Greene after she threatened several Democrats
Newly elected Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA) lashed out at liberal commentator Keith Olbermann on Twitter, alleging that he threatened her after he alleged that she would end up in jail as a traitor. It apparently didn't work because Olbermann is back with another attack on Greene and calling for the FBI to investigate her social media posts.
Greene reportedly posted several things on her social media in 2018 and 2019 that called for the deaths of Speaker Nancy Pelosi, former President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, FBI agents and other Democrats.

Olbermann mocked Greene for blaming "others" who have access to her Facebook account but noted that the new Georgia Congresswoman made the comments in a video she filmed for that page.

Greene's wild words would be normal QAnon issues, Olbermann said, but she helped spur the insurrection, carries a cache of weapons with her and has access to the woman she said should be killed.

"When on Twitter I had suggested that she would eventually go to prison as a traitor, she replied that 'This is extremely violent, threatening rhetoric,' even though it was neither threatening nor violent. She also claimed that this was part of a 'sickening witch hunt by the deranged, violent left. In her reply to me, Taylor Greene also tagged the Twitter account of the FBI. 'My coms team,' her coms team, 'is recording and archiving everything with the media because of dangerous liars like this.' Dangerous liar? Hi, hello, how are ya?"

Mike Pence is 'homeless' and bouncing between couches of Indiana politicians: report
On Tuesday, Business Insider reported that former Vice President Mike Pence and his wife Karen do not have a permanent residence since leaving the vice president's mansion — and though Republicans close to the couple aren't exactly sure of their current living arrangements, they believe the former second couple is "couch-surfing" at the residences of various Indiana officials.
"According to one source, the Pences are staying at the dolled-up cabin nearby that the Indiana governor uses as a retreat. If so, they'd need permission to spend the night from Pence's former lieutenant governor, who now serves as governor, Eric Holcomb," reported Tom LoBianco. "Two Republicans close to the Pences said they heard that the former second couple was staying at Pence's brother's place in Columbus. The one thing everyone is certain of is that when the Pences moved out of the vice president's residence at the US Naval Observatory in Washington, they had nowhere to go. The former second couple doesn't actually own a house."

Per the report, the Pences are in a precarious position since leaving office.

"Republicans who spoke with Insider also said they wondered whether Pence and his team are closely guarding their new domicile because of the wave of death threats he faced just three weeks ago," said the report. "The Trump-incited mob that stormed the Capitol earlier this month shouted that they wanted to hang Pence, and some of the people came within about 100 feet of confronting him and his family as they were hurried to a secure location in the Capitol."

Furthermore, the report noted, Pence has essentially been cut off from all contact with former President Donald Trump, who was enraged by his refusal to try to overturn the election results during congressional certification. Pence, for his part, is reportedly resentful that Trump put his life in danger.

Government-backed surveillance projects are deploying brain-reading technology to detect changes in emotional states in employees on the production line, the military and at the helm of high-speed trains.
On the surface, the production lines at Hangzhou Zhongheng Electric look like any other.
Workers outfitted in uniforms staff lines producing sophisticated equipment for telecommunication and other industrial sectors.
But there's one big difference – the workers wear caps to monitor their brainwaves, data that management then uses to adjust the pace of production and redesign workflows, according to the company.
The company said it could increase the overall efficiency of the workers by manipulating the frequency and length of break times to reduce mental stress.
Hangzhou Zhongheng Electric is just one example of the large-scale application of brain surveillance devices to monitor people's emotions and other mental activities in the workplace, according to scientists and companies involved in the government-backed projects.
Concealed in regular safety helmets or uniform hats, these lightweight, wireless sensors constantly monitor the wearer's brainwaves and stream the data to computers that use artificial intelligence algorithms to detect emotional spikes such as depression, anxiety or rage.
The technology is in widespread use around the world but China has applied it on an unprecedented scale in factories, public transport, state-owned companies and the military to increase the competitiveness of its manufacturing industry and to maintain social stability.
It has also raised concerns about the need for regulation to prevent abuses in the workplace.
The technology is also in use at in Hangzhou at State Grid Zhejiang Electric Power, where it has boosted company profits by about 2 billion yuan (US$315 million) since it was rolled out in 2014, according to Cheng Jingzhou, an official overseeing the company's emotional surveillance programme.
"There is no doubt about its effect," Cheng said.
The company and its roughly 40,000 employees manage the power supply and distribution network to homes and businesses across the province, a task that Cheng said they were able to do to higher standards thanks to the surveillance technology.
But he refused to offer more details about the programme.
Zhao Binjian, a manger of Ningbo Shenyang Logistics, said the company was using the devices mainly to train new employees. The brain sensors were integrated in virtual reality headsets to simulate different scenarios in the work environment.
"It has significantly reduced the number of mistakes made by our workers," Zhao said, because of "improved understanding" between the employees and company.
But he did not say why the technology was limited to trainees.
The company estimated the technology had helped it increase revenue by 140 million yuan in the past two years.
One of the main centres of the research in China is Neuro Cap, a central government-funded brain surveillance project at Ningbo University.
The programme has been implemented in more than a dozen factories and businesses.
Jin Jia, associate professor of brain science and cognitive psychology at Ningbo University's business school, said a highly emotional employee in a key post could affect an entire production line, jeopardising his or her own safety as well as that of others.
"When the system issues a warning, the manager asks the worker to take a day off or move to a less critical post. Some jobs require high concentration. There is no room for a mistake," she said.
Jin said workers initially reacted with fear and suspicion to the devices.
"They thought we could read their mind. This caused some discomfort and resistance in the beginning," she said.
Jin said that at present China's brain-reading technology was on a par with that in the West but China was the only country where there had been reports of massive use of the technology in the workplace. In the United States, for example, applications have been limited to archers trying to improve their performance in competition.
The unprecedented amount of data from users could help the system improve and enable China to surpass competitors over the next few years.
With improved speed and sensitivity, the device could even become a "mental keyboard" allowing the user to control a computer or mobile phone with their mind.
The research team confirmed the device and technology had been used in China's military operations but declined to provide more information.
The technology is also being used in medicine.
Ma Huajuan, a doctor at the Changhai Hospital in Shanghai, said the facility was working with Fudan University to develop a more sophisticated version of the technology to monitor a patient's emotions and prevent violent incidents.
In additional to the cap, a special camera captures a patient's facial expression and body temperature. There is also an array of pressure sensors planted under the bed to monitor shifts in body movement.
"Together this different information can give a more precise estimate of the patient's mental status," she said.
Ma said the hospital welcomed the technology and hoped it could warn medical staff of a potential violent outburst from a patient.
She said the patients had been informed that their brain activities would be under surveillance, and the hospital would not activate the devices without a patient's consent.
Deayea, a technology company in Shanghai, said its brain monitoring devices were worn regularly by train drivers working on the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail line, one of the busiest of its kind in the world.
The sensors, built in the brim of the driver's hat, could measure various types of brain activities, including fatigue and attention loss with an accuracy of more than 90 per cent, according to the company's website.
If the driver dozed off, for instance, the cap would trigger an alarm in the cabin to wake him up.
Zheng Xingwu, a professor of management at the Civil Aviation University of China, said China could be the first country in the world to introduce the brain surveillance device into cockpits.
Most airline accidents were caused by human factors and a pilot in a disturbed emotional state could put an entire plane at risk, he said.
Putting the cap on before take-off would give airlines more information to determine whether a pilot was fit to fly, Zheng said.
"The influence of the government on airlines and pilots in China is probably larger than in many other countries. If the authorities make up their mind to bring the device into the cockpit, I don't think they can be stopped," he said.
Qiao Zhian, professor of management psychology at Beijing Normal University, said that while the devices could make businesses more competitive the technology could also be abused by companies to control minds and infringe privacy, raising the spectre of "thought police".
Thought police were the secret police in George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, who investigated and punished people for personal and political thoughts not approved of by the authorities.
"There is no law or regulation to limit the use of this kind of equipment in China. The employer may have a strong incentive to use the technology for higher profit, and the employees are usually in too weak a position to say no," he said.
Lawmakers should act now to limit the use of emotion surveillance and give workers more bargaining power to protect their interests, Qiao said.
"The human mind should not be exploited for profit," he said.

Founded in 1937, Toyota became the largest car manufacturer in the world in 2007. Today, Toyota is the most valuable and most reliable car and truck company worldwide. Considering there are 29 other car companies throughout the world, the Toyota corporation has become known as one of the best in the world to manufacture durable, safe and affordable cars and trucks.
Long-term planning is a very big factor in Toyota's success in the automobile industry. Other car companies respond to short term economic cycles, fads, and numbers, but Toyota thinks ahead to the future. For example, Toyota developed the Toyota Prius Hybrid in 2000 during a time of relative low gas prices. In addition, 40% of its vehicles are sold in the United States and Japan allowing for some of the highest price points among its competitors. In comparison, GM has some of its highest margins in the U.S. truck division but is unfortunately bogged down by lower pricing in China. Overall Toyota has high margins generating substantial cash flow, allowing for continued research and development (R&D) and long-term planning as well as stakes in other companies. Learning and observation are key cultural elements, as are experimentation for continuous improvement.
When one thinks of a global juggernaut, one generally precludes the Piggly Wiggly grocery store. However, on a trip to the United States to see the Ford corporation (as the Toyota founders relied heavily on the work of W. Edwards Deming and the writings of Henry Ford), they went into a Piggly Wiggly. The car manufacturers were less impressed by Ford's workflow and more impressed by their experience at the local Piggly Wiggly. While shopping, they observed the simple idea of an automatic drink supplier. When a customer wanted a drink he or she took one, and it was automatically replaced with another drink. This idea was integrated into the TPS system, reducing the inventory they would hold, leading to the ubiquitous and famous just-in-time (JIT) inventory management system based on customer demand. Low inventory levels are a basic outcome of TPS, but in reality, the secret sauce is to continuously improve work flow and eliminate muda (or waste).
Do not attempt a cultural shift such as Lean management until you have a broad consensus on change.
Ensure company-wide commitment to major shifts in business methods to achieve companywide success.
Use vision boards to simulate the before and after of one-piece flow, JIT and PDCA.
Train the trainer. When Manex completes a training, we leave one or more champions/trainers in place.
Identify the root cause and initiate Lean tools.
Continuous improvement means continuous. Project management timelines should have no final end date. You may not get your next inspiration from a Piggly Wiggly, but you never know where or whom it may come from.
Incorporate teamwork, Lean, and measurable production goals into your performance management system (PMS).
Involve your human resources department in Lean training so they understand the culture shift required and its importance in the PMS.


It's easy to see why Branson is considered one of the Midwest's best destinations for golf. The area's natural beauty and stunning course designs make the game fun for players of all skill levels.
From par 3 courses that test your short game to championship courses that require endurance and shot-making abilities, there's a course for every player in Branson.
Every golfer has a "Dream 18," a fantasy course consisting of holes from favorite courses.
After doing some dreaming of our own and visiting with Trey Pelz and Mark Strong, local golf enthusiasts at Clear Entertainment and Marketing in Branson, we came up with an 18-hole, par 72 layout that highlights several Branson courses and signature holes.
The fourth hole at Ledgestone Country Club opens on an elevated tee box and doglegs right. A good drive is crucial, along with club selection on the approach.
Don't let the distance fool you. The sixth hole at Top of the Rock features the course's signature island green. And yes, it's okay to stop for a picture of this stunning hole.
The second hole at the Buffalo Ridge Springs course includes beautiful natural features, including a cave to the left of the tee box and a rock wall at the back of the green. The hole doglegs to the left so take time to plan for a well-placed tee shot.
You'll get to flex your muscles on this mammoth hole, the 18th at Thousand Hills Golf Resort. There's a good chance to birdie, but be aware of perils such as Sandpiper Lake. Your shot-making skills will be tested here.
The ninth hole at Don Gardner Golf Course offers another great chance for a birdie. On our Dream 18, it makes a nice break after two difficult holes.
You'll have to cross water off the tee on the fourth hole at Pointe Royale, but a wide open approach to the green is the reward for a good first shot.
"Number Eighteen is a beautiful finishing par five at Ledgestone," Strong said in regards to the hole known as "The Plunge." The hole is guarded on the left by water, and you might be courting trouble if you try to reach the green in two.
A postage-stamp size green is waiting at the conclusion of the third hole at Holiday Hills Golf Resort. The fairway doglegs right, where a ball magnet … er, bunker, sits.
Start the second half of our Dream 18 with the undulating fairway of the ninth hole at Branson Hills. "The second shot requires some accuracy as the hole doglegs right, and you are shooting at a lengthy green across a creek," Strong said.
This easy birdie opportunity comes courtesy of the second hole at Thousand Hills. While distance-wise the hole doesn't offer much in the way of a challenge, the bunkers at left and behind the green are waiting for wayward shots.
The elevated tee at Buffalo Ridge's fifth hole offers a beautiful view of the area. Of course, if you plunk one into the water-filled quarry – the hole's signature feature – you may not think it's that pretty.
There's water everywhere on the sixth hole at Ledgestone, which is probably why it's called "Mermaid." A small lake lines the left side of the hole, while Roark Creek is positioned on the right. Keep it straight off the tee, or be prepared to go for a swim.
More water awaits on the fourth hole at Branson Hills. While there's water on the right, the green is protected by both trees and a bunker on the left. This will be a great test of your shot-making skills … or luck.
The elevated tee at Top of the Rock's second hole can be a bit deceiving, so club selection is critical. There's about a 100-foot elevation difference between the tee box and green. Even if you shank your tee shot, take a minute to admire the view of nearby Table Rock Lake.
The ninth hole at Holiday Hills is somewhat narrow, thanks to the dogleg right layout and left-side bunkers. Those trees on the right side of the fairway aren't super-forgiving, either!
You'll have a chance to see buffalo roaming as you approach the green on the 12th hole at Buffalo Ridge. Don't go too far left off the tee unless you plan on a hiking expedition as part of your round. Be mindful of the bunkers guarding the green.

Pumpkin Spice Pizza Exists, Because Nothing Matters Anymore
Every year, the number of pumpkin spice products reproduces like a Mogwai beside a spilled venti PSL, but this might be the worst offender.
by Jelisa Castrodale
Sep 18 2017, 8:00pm
It's technically still summer, but we've all reluctantly accepted that it is pumpkin spice season, when it seems like we're incapable of eating or drinking anything that doesn't taste like synthetic cinnamon and nutmeg. Every year, the number of pumpkin spice products reproduces like a Mogwai beside a spilled venti PSL, but this might be the worst offender. No, it's not the Nature's Path Gluten-Free Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal, the White Pumpkin Pie M&M's, or the CVS-brand pumpkin spice throat lozenges. It's pumpkin spice pizza, a collection of words that should never appear in beside each other in a sentence.
Villa Italian Kitchen is to blame for this, the same New Jersey-based chain that was responsible for Alternative Facts pizza. (Remember when that seemed hilarious? Like, when we thought that things would be so different right now? WE WERE SO FOOLISH.) Anyway, Villa's seasonal pie starts with a regular hand-stretched slab of pizza dough, and then everything goes wrong from there. Pumpkin pie filling is spread across the dough—the definition of crimes against carbohydrates—which is then covered with mozzarella cheese and baked. After that, the pizza is again doused with pumpkin pie filling, just in case it forgot that it was humiliated not ten minutes ago.
"Pumpkin Spice is undeniably the most popular flavor of fall. As such, we wanted to slice up our piece of the pie," Villa Italian Kitchen spokesperson Brian Lowe told MUNCHIES. "We thought, what could be better than combining the popularity of Pumpkin Spice with pizza? So, after a few R&D sessions, we landed on the perfect Pumpkin Spice Pizza balance. It's a magical place where all the deliciousness of pizza meets the flavors of pumpkin spice."
READ MORE: Fuck Pumpkin Spice
No, Brian. None of this is magical. Not the pizza, not the cough drops and not a can of sprayable pumpkin spice flavoring, which is also a thing that exists. This soul-numbing $7 spray can is sold by Simply Beyond Foods, a company that I sincerely hope has attracted the attention of INTERPOL. "Treat yourself to all those flavors, but without the gritty texture or muddy appearance of dusty, ground spices," Simply Beyond encourages. Yes, you now have the power to turn anything into its pumpkin spice counterpart, because nothing matters anymore.
"Have we reached peak pumpkin spice?" Lowe asked, rhetorically. "You bet your nutmeg."
Sigh. Anhedonia tastes a lot like allspice.
Pumpkin Spice Lattes


Please considering leaving even a 2-sentence review. It would help spread the word about the show.
You can eliminate the risks you can't see by removing names from your "watch list" or data that you've raked – the step before you run the data through your simulator.
Pro traders focus on "not losing" rather how much they can make. Of course we need to make money, but by preserving your capital and focusing on defense, you put yourself in a position to appreciate your money emotionally and financially.
You can reduce correlation risk by NOT having all the metals in your data source. You can "rule out" correlation risk by saying "if long gold, don't take trades in silver," for example. Or, you can set a max risk per group, ie, social media companies, metals, softs, interest rates, so that one group or name will not become unwieldy.
When the markets turn, they will turn for the whole group. If you have large positions of highly correlated assets, you might be in a spot risk-wise to give back more than you want to…and that's having placed definitive protective stop orders in the market to get filled – it's worse if you use mental stops.
Volume is what you saw traded yesterday. Liquidity is what you need to offset your position when you need to do so. Big difference. The invisible risk here is that thin markets move sharply. Sometimes you have to get out of your position when the market will let you out.
You don't want to be in a position to take larger losses when the market turns on you because everyone is on the same side of the market. That's the case with Bitcoin right now. When you're looking to sell, who will be there to buy?
You can rake your data to include only names that have a set criteria of trading volume so that you avoid problems before they arise. Commodity markets like oats, lumber, and cocoa can be problematic in that regard. Cocoa is not necessarily thin, but it does not have a daily trading limit so your loss potential can be much greater than you'd imagined when building your system.
When you focus on "not losing" you'll begin to uncover more and more of your blind spots as the markets and your trading evolve. Losses and drawdowns are part of trading, but by incurring small losses, you'll be in a better place emotionally and financially to lessen the effects of the magnitude and duration of the drawdown.


Swiss borg is "the first wealth management platform for cryptos based on the blockchain, made in Switzerland by a team of financial experts". Swissborg aims to take cryptocurrency from the exchange into the investment portfolio. Their aim is to disrupt the traditional investment industry as well, with the tokenization of assets and token based voting.
The Cryptallion - a multi strategy Fund, it will combine multiple strategies (trend following, ICO, lending, etc) in one token, while the other two are single strategy funds. Cryptallion expects to have a much better risk/return profile due to the diversification of strategies.
Then they intend to launch is an off-chain crypto fund. Currently the only cryptocurrency fund seem to be Bitcoin related. This fund seems like an etf holding various cryptocurrencies trading over an exchange. Such a product does not yet exist, but a big hurdle to these kind of funds seems to be regulatory approval. If any kind of off-chain cryptocurrency fund trading over an exchange could be made, it would be monumental step forward for the widespread adoption of cryptocurrency investing. This would be a safer investment choice because it presumably would be traded like a financial instrument and couldn't be hacked like a traditional cryptocurrency.
Between 2019 and 2020, Swissborg intends to provide an ICO platform for investment into cryptocurrency startups and cold storage to secure tokens. They intend to become a globally regulated financial adviser in that time as well.
By 2020 or 2021, they expect to support asset tokenization. This would allow financial assets such as stocks or real estate to be tokenized and traded piece-wise, probably with minimal fees. It would allow extreme customization in investment choice, and would especially help with the fractional purchases of expensive shares, such as AMZN. They also expect to have their own cryptocurrency exchange platform up and running, though by that time that won't be anything too exciting, unless it's combined well with some of their other offerings.
The CHSB token is currently trading for less than half ICO price, so it may be a good time to get some, though please remember that this is a startup, and thus this is a highly specutive investment. Don't invest what you cant afford to lose.


The Niagara Economic Gateway encompasses both the Economic Gateway Zone and Centre. The Economic Gateway Zone and Centre stems from language used in the Provincial Growth Plan and refers to two distinct areas in south Niagara. The Zone refers to certain lands in Fort Erie and Niagara Falls and the Centre refers to certain lands in Thorold, Welland and Port Colborne.

THE FINAL STANDINGS OF THE WSK SUPER MASTER SERIES: THE WINNERS ARE LAMMERS (SODI-TM KZ2), NOVALAK (TONY KART-VORTEX OK), ROSSO (TONY KART-VORTEX OKJ) AND MINÌ (PAROLIN-TM 60MINI).
Sarno (Salerno, Italy)
NEXT APPOINTMENT THE DOUBLE ROUND ON 5TH AND 12TH NOVEMBER OF THE WSK FINAL CUP, IN ADRIA (I).
THE WINNERS OF THE WSK SUPER MASTER SERIES.
The event in Sarno was the final act of the WSK Super Master Series 2017 and it established the final standings of the competition. The kart racing Series promoted by WSK Promotion completed its season with nearly 1,000 scrutineered drivers in its four rounds. The next appointment is scheduled on 5th and 12th November with the WSK Final Cup, at the Adria Karting Raceway (I).
BAS LAMMERS IS THE KING OF THE KZ2.
Bas Lammers (Sodi-TM-Bridgestone), with the 3rd place scored in Sarno, ended with a bang the Series and won in KZ2. He grabbed the leadership in the second round of Castelletto and can boast a victory in a Final and in two Prefinals. Lammers overtook his team-mate, the French Anthony Abbasse, who was the leader in the season-opener. Excellent end for the Czech Patrik Hajek (Kosmic-Vortex), the runner-up ahead of Abbasse, thanks to 2 victories in the Finals of the last two rounds.
CLEMENT NOVALAK SUCCEEDS IN OK.
Also Clement Novalak (Tony Kart-Vortex-Bridgestone) won in OK thanks to a victory in the Final in the second round, when the driver – holder of an English licence – passed the Belgian Ulysse De Pauw (Kosmic-Parilla) in the standings. Two victories in two Finals (Castelletto and Muro Leccese) and three in Prefinals allowed Novalak to beat the Polish Karol Basz (Kosmic-Vortex). The latter, after the victory in the Final of Sarno, secured the runner-up position of the category beating De Pauw into third.
ANDREA ROSSO CONQUERS THE OK JUNIOR.
Winners of the Finals in Adria, Castelletto and of a Prefinal, Andrea Rosso (Tony Kart-Vortex-Vega) won the OK Junior keeping at bay several rivals. Behind the Italian driver, the runner-up was his fellow countryman Mattia Michelotto (Zanardi-Parilla), who recovered as far as second thanks to a victory in the Final of Sarno. In the last round, it was the English Harry Thompson (FA Kart-Vortex) who managed to grab the third place.
GABRIELE MINÌ WINS FOR A HAIR'S BREADTH IN 60MINI.
The Italian Alfio Spina (CRG-TM-Vega) was the first leader of the category after the season-opener. Then in the 60 Mini was the turn of the Italian Andrea Antonelli (Tony Kart-Vortex), then the Russian Nikita Bedrin (Tony Kart-TM). Eventually, it was the Italian Gabriele Minì (Parolin-TM-Vega) who prevailed thanks to a decisive overtaking manoeuvre on the last lap of the Final in Sarno. He overtook Bedrin and scored a crucial third place which allowed him to secure the victory in the category. In the heated finale, Antonelli managed to keep the third overall position behind Bedrin.


Now that my training is full steam ahead again I have decided that the Palm Beach Marathon on December 6th will be my first marathon. My reasoning is because it has become one of the largest in Florida in the short time it has existed, it is close to home so I can feel more comfortable sleeping in my own bed the night before, and because I am familiar with the course since I have driven there many times.
I have not actually registered for it yet, but as long as I do not have any more injuries or other mysteries popping up I will register in October.

Chase Ends in Arrest
By MILES DUMVILLE
A high-speed police chase that began near campus in the early morning on Feb. 5 ended in the arrest of a long-time University of Mary Washington staff member on multiple driving charges.
Wilma Harper Willard, one of two building secretaries for the Jepson Science Center, was charged with Class 1 misdemeanors of driving on a suspended license and reckless driving under pursuit, as well as eluding the police, a Class 6 felony that usually results in one to five years of jail time.
Police also issued four summonses—for improper display of license plates, registration/licensing offenses, no proof of insurance, and altered or forged license plates.
Willard, a long-standing employee at the university and a mother of two, is primarily responsible for organizing incoming and outgoing lab supplies for the professors in Jepson.
"She keeps things running," said Werner Wieland, Biology chair and Jepson staff supervisor.
According to court records, Willard has two prior convictions for driving on a suspended license. On July 24, 2007, police found the same car involved in the high-speed chase—a red 1998 Pontiac Sunfire—in the Jepson parking lot with what appeared to be an altered license.
University of Mary Washington Police Officer Kauffman, the same officer involved in Tuesday's chase, reported that Willard was unable to produce a license and registration at that time.
Kauffman said that the events leading up to the high-speed chase on Tuesday actually began on the previous day, Feb. 4, when he recognized the Pontiac on Powhatan Street in the College Heights area while on a routine patrol.
Tuesday morning, Kauffman said he noticed the car drive by on Powhatan while he sat in his vehicle reviewing paperwork in the Pizza Hut parking lot. He left the parking lot in pursuit of the Pontiac, which he said quickly accelerated to approximately 50 mph in a 25 mph zone.
After a high-speed chase stretching from Route 1 and Snowden Street to College Avenue and Thornton Street, the speeding vehicle pulled to a halt on Thornton Street by the Thomas Jefferson Motel and caddy cornered a residence at 1228 Thornton Street.
Kauffman said he left his vehicle, drew his weapon, and asked the driver to step out of the car. When she did he recognized her as Willard and ordered her to place her hands on the car.
Kauffman said he had to thumb through his contacts list on his cell phone to call in the arrest to the UMW police station because the radio system used by university officers was not working.
Kauffman searched Willard and placed her in the squad car. When backup arrived the officers searched Willard's car and confiscated the license plate for evidence. The officers then took Willard to the police station for processing and then taken to the magistrate's office where she was charged with multiple offenses.
Willard's preliminary hearing date in circuit court is scheduled for the Feb. 28. Human Resources officials were unavailable to comment on the status of her employment with the University.

Q: Read JSON file in a directory and its sub-directories I have a file named file.json in the /assets directory and some of its subdirectories as well. Is there a way that I can search the assets directory and read each of the file.json file using the fs.readFileSync method at once?

A: Not sure if you can do it synch, yet, you can use glob and stream-concat-files. Note the the concat by default is to a file but you can stream it to a a string buffer writeable stream.
glob('asset/**/file.json', function(err, files){concatFiles(files, 'concat.json', function(err){})});

For the third year in a row, Symantec Mail Security (v7.5) is the best overall performer in my tests. It didn't have the best score in false positives (it came in a close second), and it was fourth in catch rate, but considering both counts, along with feature set, pricing, and maturity, it comes in first. The Symantec product shows a level of sophistication and ease of use that only comes from being a class leader for a long time, and having all the sharp edges rounded off.
The Symantec Mail Security appliance (I tested the SMS 8340) is very easy to configure, with an LDAP configuration that everyone else should steal. A few clicks are all it takes, and it automatically fills in all the necessary query strings and nomenclature to pull user data from Active Directory or other directories. The administrative interface is clean and easy to navigate, with everything clearly marked and well documented, including online help that has good examples. Further, very little needs changing other than the host name and network settings. Unlike some of the other appliances, there are few settings to change and few needed, considering the SMS caught 96.4 per cent of spam with no critical false positives and four bulk false positives out of the box.
The SMS offers a full set of enterprise-class features, including clustering, central management of multiple units, IM protection, and sophisticated content management. Content protection includes no pre-built word lists (some are available at extra cost), but importing lists from other sources is very easy, and there are a large number of pre-made templates for regulatory policies, including GLBA and HIPAA. The SMS provides attachment scanning and forwarding of suspicious e-mails to the admin or a designated person, and it has the most effective anti-phishing engine in the test, though only 82 per cent of phishing attempts were blocked.
Symantec also provides great reporting, logging, and alerts, and very granular granting of administrative rights to different users. Admins will like the very flexible policy-based rule sets, while users will appreciate a very accessible Web interface to the message quarantine and a great Outlook plug-in.
In addition to great ease of use and performance, the SMS 8340 is the third least expensive system in the test. Although not in the sub-US$5,000 class of the Barracuda, it costs less than comparable, high-end systems. Further, unlike many of the other enterprise-oriented systems, the entry point is very low: The 100-user SMS 8230 starts at less than US$1,000 for the hardware and US$21 per user per year for the subscription.

It's tough out there, but companies that think their choice is to innovate or to survive are missing the point. Innovation is a corporate necessity, not a nicety. There's little doubt that innovation is going to become harder as resources become tighter and competition becomes fiercer. But, those companies that continue to focus on innovation have a rare chance to create substantial space between themselves and their competitors, those that don't will fall further and further behind. The Silver Lining: An Innovation Playbook for Uncertain Times makes the case that today's turbulent times make mastering innovation a competitive necessity. The book aims to provide corporate innovators and entrepreneurs with practical guidance to seize the ample opportunities that still exist in today's markets.

Saturn in pictures: Stunning new NASA portrait reveals 'turbulent' skies of Ringed Giant
NASA's breathtaking new portrait of Saturn reveals the tumultuous atmospheric conditions haunting the seemingly serene Ringed Giant.
By Sebastian Kettley

Saturn's detailed photo was snapped by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope on June 20 this year. NASA's orbital observatory takes annual snapshots of the ringed planet, uncovering each time new information about its atmosphere. The latest Saturn image shows the Ringed Giant against the pitch-black backdrop of space. The planet is slightly tilted to the front and to the left, offering a clear view of its multi-coloured rings.

Saturn is the second-largest planet in our system and the sixth planet from the Sun.
Saturn's instantly recognisable rings are thousands of individual ringlets that give the impression of a wide disc surrounding the planet.
The ringlets are made of chunks of ice and rock that have settled into orbit over billions of years.
But the focus of NASA's new Hubble portrait is the planet's atmosphere and not the other-worldly rings.

The US space agency said: "Saturn is so beautiful that astronomers cannot resist using the Hubble Space Telescope to take yearly snapshots of the ringed world when it is at its closest distance to Earth.
Saturn is so beautiful that astronomers cannot resist
"These images, however, are more than just beauty shots. They reveal a planet with a turbulent, dynamic atmosphere."
In 2018, Hubble snapped a large storm brewing in the planet's upper polar region.
The storm has since vanished and many smaller ones will pop in and out of view like "popcorn kernels popping in a microwave oven".

Why astronomers were confused by this dying star in a 'gloomy scene'
There is, however, still a lot that has not changed since Saturn's last beauty shot a year ago.
A mysterious hexagon-like structure still dominates the north polar region of the planet.
Dubbed the "hexagon", the bizarre feature appears to have six straight edges.
The structure is believed to be caused by the presence of a high-speed jet stream and was first observed in 1981 by NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft.

NASA said: "This image reveals an unprecedented clarity only seen previously in snapshots taken by NASA spacecraft visiting the distant planet.
"Astronomers will continue their yearly monitoring of the planet to track shifting weather patterns and identify other changes.
"The second in the yearly series, this image is part of the Outer Planets Atmospheres Legacy (OPAL) project."
Scientists hope to learn more about the dynamic atmospheres of Jupiter and Saturn through NASA's OPAL.

Das Hær (deutsch Königlich Dänisches Heer) bildet mit 8000 Soldaten die Heereskomponente der Danske Forsvar.

Jüngere Geschichte

Seit dem Ende des Kalten Krieges hat das Dänische Heer, verbunden mit den übrigen Teilstreitkräften, mehrere Reformen erlebt. Der wichtigste Kampfverband am Ende der Blockkonfrontation war die dänische Division (Danske Division, stationiert in der Haderslev Kaserne, Haderslev) mit seit 1995 drei Brigaden, die im Wesentlichen von Wehrpflichtigen gebildet wurden. Bereits seit den 1990er Jahren und verstärkt nach den Terroranschlägen am 11. September 2001 beteiligte sich Dänemark an mehreren US-geführten Expeditionseinsätzen. In der Folge leitete die Politik des Landes eine stärkere Ausrichtung auf exterritoriale Einsätze ein. Mit Beschluss von 1992 und voller Operationsfähigkeit im Jahr 1997 entstand die Dänische internationale Brigade, nach deutschem Verständnis ein Jägerverband, dessen Mannstärke von 4500 zu 80 % auf Reservisten beruhte. 2005 wurde die internationale Brigade wieder aufgelöst.

Die darauf folgende Struktur sah eine Expeditionsbrigade aus Berufssoldaten vor, die eine hohe Einsatz- und Verlegebereitschaft aufrechterhielt. Von 2004 bis 2007 war das Dänische Heer im Irak mit 600 Soldaten und von 2006 bis 2012 in Afghanistan mit 800 Soldaten im Einsatz. Eine zweite Brigade war für die Ausbildung unter anderem der Wehrpflichtigen und die verbleibenden Kapazitäten zur Heimatverteidigung zuständig. Diese Zweiteilung zwischen einer auch in Friedenszeiten zu bestimmten Operation en fähige und einer in Friedenszeiten auf die Ausbildung konzentrierten Brigade besteht bis heute.

Bis zum 1. Oktober 2014 hatte das Dänische Heer sein eigenes operatives Kommando des Heeres (Hærens Operative Kommando (HOK)). An diesem Tag wurden die operativen Kommandos des Heeres, der Marine und der Luftwaffe in einem neuen Gemeinsamen Verteidigungskommando (Værnsfælles Forsvarskommando (VFK)) zusammengefasst

Nach dem Krieg in der Ukraine seit 2014 wurde das Heer verstärkt wieder auf die Verteidigung gegen einen möglichen russischen Angriff ausgerichtet. Dieser Schwerpunkt wurde 2018 mit den derzeit gültigen Zielen für eine Strukturreform ausformuliert. Von der Handlungsfähigkeit in diesem Sinn ist das dänische Heer allerdings entfernt. So sind nur rund 30 % der Kampfpanzer einsatzfähig und insbesondere die Laufbahn als Unteroffizier wird von potenziellen Bewerbern als wenig attraktiv im Vergleich zur Beschäftigung in der Privatwirtschaft angesehen.

Gliederung
Als höchste organisatorische Behörde besitzt das Dänische Heer seit der Reform von 2014 den Heeresstab (Hærstaben). Er ist für die Bereitschaft der Heereseinheiten verantwortlich. Damit entspricht der Heeresstab dem Marinestab (Marinestaben) und dem Luftwaffenstab (Flyverstaben). Alle drei befinden sich am Karup Luftstützpunkt. Seit dem 1. Juli 2015 ist das Jägerkorps (Jægerkorpset, die landgebundene dänische Spezialkräfteeinheit) nicht mehr Teil des Heeres. Das Korps wurde im Spezialeinsatzkommando (Specialoperationskommandoen (SOKOM)) zusammen mit dem Frogmenkorps (Frømandskorpset, die Marinekampfschwimmereinheit) integriert.

Im Jahr 2017 bestand das Dänische Heer aus Verbandsstäben, Einsatzunterstützungszentren und Regimentern.

Die dänische Division wurde nach dem Verteidigungsabkommen von 2005–2009 (Forsvarsforliget 2005–2009) von einem stehenden Großverband in einen operativen Divisionsstab umstrukturiert. Der Division werden gemäß den NATO-Militärstrukturen im Krisen- und Verteidigungsfall litauische, lettische und estnische Heereseinheiten unterstellt. Mit dem Verteidigungsabkommen von 2013–2017 wird die Dänische Division zum Ausbildungszentrum für Einsatzführung und Übungsplanung sowie zum Entwicklungszentrum für Landesdoktrin bestimmt. Sie ist in das Multinationale Korps Nord-Ost sowie in das Allied Command Europe Rapid Reaction Corps eingegliedert.

Die zwei Brigaden des Dänischen Heeres sind auch nicht mehr stehende Großverbände, sondern operative Brigadestäbe, da ihnen im Frieden nur Einheiten der Kampfwaffengattungen (ein Panzer-, ein Feldaufklärungs- und sieben mechanisierte Infanteriebataillone, darunter ein Ausbildungsbataillon für beide Brigaden) unterstellt sind aber Kampfunterstützungs- und Logistikverbände fehlen.

Die Kampfunterstützungs- und die Logistikregimenter wurden in Unterstützungszentren umgewandelt. Damit sind sie beide Kompetenzzentren und Depots für die Vorbereitung von Kontingenten, welche die Brigaden bei Übungen und Auslandseinsätzen unterstützen.

Die drei Kampfregimenter (Jütländisches Dragonerregiment, die Königliche Leibgarde und das Gardehusarenregiment) wurden beibehalten. Sie sind für Einsätze außerhalb der Struktur der Heeresbrigaden verantwortlich. Generell sind das repräsentative Aufgaben wie Ehrenwache und Militärmusik, aber auch Objektinstandsetzung ihrer Kasernen.

Das Dänische Heer hat neun Kampfeinheiten. Jede Brigade hat ein Ausbildungsbataillon (Uddannelsesbataljon) mechanisierter Infanterie. Die 1. Brigade ist grundsätzlich auf der Jütland-Halbinsel stationiert, ihr ist aber auch das einzige Feldaufklärungsbataillon unterstellt. Die restlichen sechs (das Panzerbataillon und fünf Panzerinfanteriebataillone) sind in Paaren gruppiert. Die Einheit von höherer Bereitschaft wird Kampfbataillon (Kampbataljon), die von niedriger Bereitschaft Kaderbataillon (Kadrebataljon) genannt.

Die 2018 beschlossenen Strukturreformen sehen neben der Gliederung und Aufgabenverteilung im Frieden zwei wesentliche Einsatzszenarien vor: Im Fall eines Krieges soll die 1. Brigade innerhalb von 180 Tagen zu einer vollwertigen, der Nato-Doktrin entsprechenden Kampfbrigade aufwachsen können. Der Schwerpunkt der 2. Brigade liegt für diesen Fall darauf, innerhalb von unter 30 Tagen ein leichtes Infanteriebataillon bzw. Jägerbataillon kampfbereit zu haben und im Übrigen weiter Ausbildung für den Ersatz des gesamten Heeres zu betreiben. Das zweite Einsatzszenario betrifft einen größeren, anhaltenden militärischen Konflikt unterhalb der Schwelle des Krieges. In diesem Fall soll die 1. Brigade nacheinander drei Einsatzgruppen in Bataillonsstärke für jeweils sechs Monate einsetzen können. Danach übernimmt die 2. Brigade für die nächsten 18 Monate mit dem gleichen Truppenansatz.

Die Offizierschule des Heeres (Hærens Officerskole) ist in die Verteidigungsakademie Forsvarsakademiet in Kopenhagen eingegliedert. Das "Jägerkorps", die Spezialkräfteeinheit für Landeinsätze, ist seit dem Jahr 2015 nicht mehr Teil des Heeres.

Heimwehr
Die Dänische Heimwehr (Hjemmeværnet) ist die vierte dänische Truppengattung und die Reservekomponente für die anderen drei – das Heer, die Marine und die Luftwaffe. Dafür ist sie auch intern in diesen Truppengattungen gegliedert. Die Heimwehr war bis 2016 in drei Totalverteidigungsbereichen (Totalforsvarsregioner (TFR)) organisiert. In diesem Jahr wurden sie auf zwei Landesteilbereichen (Landsdelsregion Øst og Vest, jeder von einem Oberst von dem Heer geführt und in sechs Distrikter erteilt) reduziert. Das Heimwehrkommando (Hjemmeværnskommandoen (HJK)) untersteht in Friedenszeiten direkt dem Verteidigungsminister. Im Kriegsfall wird es im Gemeinsamen Verteidigungskommando integriert.

Die Heeresheimwehr (Hærhjemmeværnet (HHV)) ist in drei Waffengattungen gegliedert:
 die Hauptkräfte sind einfach Heeresheimwehr genannt – sie sind die leichte Reserveinfanterie, die für die territoriale Sicherung und Überwachung verantwortlich ist.
 die Polizeiheimwehr (Politihjemmeværnet (PHV)) ist die dänische Gendarmerie und damit ist sie zugleich dem Verteidigungsministerium und dem Justizministerium unterstellt.
 die Betriebsheimwehr (Virksomhedshjemmeværnet (VHV)) ist eine Instandsetzungswaffengattung. Sie hat Eisenbahn-, Energie- und Telekommunikationsbetriebseinheiten. Seit dem 1. Januar 2017 ist sie nicht mehr eine eigenständige Heimwehrstruktur.

Gliederung

Die Heeresheimwehr ist in Landsdelsregion Øst und Landsdelsregion Vest gegliedert. Jeder Landesteilsregion wird von einem Oberst des Heeres geführt. Landesteilsregion Ost und Landesteilsregion West beinhalten je sechs Distrikte, die von Majoren oder Oberstleutnanten des Heeres geführt werden. Es gibt zwei Sonderfälle. Im Osten ist die Heimwehr von Bornholm ein gemeinsames teilstreitkräfteübergreifendes Heimwehrkommando, das neben zwei Heeresheimwehrkompanien und eine Polizeiheimwehrkompanie auch eine Luftwaffenheimwehrstaffel und eine Marineheimwehrflottille beinhaltet (beide sind Kompanieäquivalente). Am Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges wurde die Insel Bornholm von der Roten Armee befreit und nach dem Kriegsende wurde zwischen den Vereinigten Staaten, Großbritannien und der Sowjetunion vereinbart, das die Militärische Nutzung der Insel streng limitiert wird. Damit haben die Militäreinheiten auf Bornholm einen Sonderstatus. Ihre geringe Anzahl und die geringe Größe der Insel machen eine gemeinsame Struktur sinnvoller. Die geographische Situation der Insel Ærø ist ähnlich. Mit einer Oberfläche von nur 88 km² und von dem nationalen Verkehrsnetz isoliert sind die Heeresheimwehrkompanie, Luftwaffenheimwehrstaffel und die Marineheimwehrflottille in einer gemeinsamen Unterabteilung (Værnsfællesunderafdeling Ærø (VFUAER)) der Heeresheimwehr zusammengebracht.

HVK Særlig Støtte- og Rekognoscering ist die elite Kompanie von der Heimwehr und ist die einzige, die regulär mit dem Verteidigungskommando operiert. Die anderen Heimwehreinheiten werden dem Verteidigungskommando nur im Krisen- und Kriegsfall unterstellt. Der Name bedeutet "Spezielle Unterstützung und Aufklärung".

Reserve
Sollten die vorhandenen Kräfte nicht ausreichen, stehen 34.400 Reservisten zur Verfügung. Diese haben in der Regel in den letzten drei Jahren ihren Wehrdienst absolviert und werden in der Regel bis zu drei Monate eingesetzt.

Eine wichtige Rolle im Reservewesen des Dänischen Heeres bilden die Hjemmeværnet (dt. Heimwehr).

Fernspäheinheit des Dänischen Heeres ist die Hjemmeværnets Særlig Støtte og Rekognosceringskompagni der dänischen Heimwehr.

For some reason in the last few weeks I have either been doing lots of work with, or talking to, practitioners working in 'packaway' settings. These are settings that have to be packed into boxes and cupboards at the end of each day or each session, usually so the room or space can be used by someone else.
Although some of these are small settings, such as pre-schools, some are much larger, consisting of several rooms and outdoor areas. This can turn 'tidy-up' time from a quick check for any lego left out or toys in the garden into a huge logistical job where everyone needs to know their role inside out.
However, I do think that there are some great benefits that only those who DON'T have to heave boxes in and out every day can appreciate.
In November 2008 I wrote about the purpose, and importance, of EYP Networks (you can find the original post here).
Since then we have seen many changes. The Government have changed, over 15,000 people with the Status this time last year (National College for Teaching and Leadership statistics) and the Status has been renamed Early Years Teacher Status, along with a brand new set of Standards.
I'm thoroughly enjoying the new series from Critical Publishing books. The latest one, Developing as a Reflective Early Years Professional, deals with the highly elusive and complicated concepts of reflective practice and reflection.
Chapter 1 is by Carol Hayes and is all about reflective practice. There are some great examples of a range a reflective models and how these link to early years. One of Carol's thoughts struck me particularly – the use of the word practitioner suggest 'doing'. We all know settings (whether Nursery, childminder, nanny or teacher) are all about doing, but maybe there should be times when we consider ourselves thinkers, reflectors or researchers.

Woa! That's a lotta Smiles!
The initial contact for the shoot was an inquiry for a large group photo.
Turns out, it was a sort of family reunion and 60th birthday, and the client and I agreed when you've got that many family members in one place – better to set up more than just a single group photo. I mean… they even had T-Shirts!
I think what may have caught me by surprise was the large number of children – 20+ under 10 years of age who I think may have spend most of the bitter cold weekend stuck in doors rather than playing in the Catskills countryside.
You never know what to expect from the Catskills in early March. This year we've had springtime in the 60s (maybe low 70s) and single digits. That's where this family arrived.
Ahead of the weekend visit, I dropped a line to confirm and advise about the coming cold front. I believe much of the family was coming up from Long Island and might not have been checking the mountain forecast.
Now, I never say 'no.' I figured we'd shoot inside and out, but with soooo many toddlers, infants and youngin's involved – we agreed to keep it under roof.
I had fun with the little ones, as I used to do when I managed seasonal mall photography sets that contributed to my training. They all took turns squeaking the ice cream cone squeaky toy I use to draw babies eyes' toward the lens.
Some times if I'm drawing a K9s eyes, I leave the toy behind (I buy them in 2s and 3s, typically) but somehow when its kids involved it always comes back to the shop with me no worse for the wear.
There were a lot of cooks on this particular shoot. A few times I attempted to move our set up to a neutral wall or different backdrop – the great room had lots of space, but was vetoed so the grayness of the exterior winter world shows in most photos. When I moved to manipulate the pose for height or depth, participants returned on their own to the line-up. Not perfect, but not a deal-breaker.
What was perfect, was the feeling I got that everyone enjoyed themselves – the whole time. OK – a few babies cried, but babies cry. While we worked, those who weren't in the photo were running, playing, dancing, singing, snacking (and possibly packing for their southbound escape).
It was in many ways the most joyous gathering I've photographed outside of a wedding and I hope that feeling stays with me in the months ahead.
Update: I was invited back to photograph a much larger group photo and reunion – and found the energy scaled up – though with over 100 present (including many under 5) there was a certain increased sense of urgency for the whole group images.
